The eunuch in the vestibule took the holy decree and read sharply: "Fengtian carrier, the emperor's edict said: Yu Wensu, Su Tinglin raised troops to rebel, the crime is not forgiven, Su Tinglin pushed out the noon gate Ling Chi to be executed, not waiting, all the family property was confiscated, the nine clans of the Su family plus the protégé of the deceased officials of the ten clans were all immediately arrested and killed, and the decision was made. Immediately decided, the family property is confiscated, and the family property is confiscated!"

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live. Dongfang Wenjie bowed down first, and the rest of the ministers also echoed, Su Tinglin shouted and was pulled out, Lin Nan smiled and looked at Dongfang Wenjie and said: "Dongfang Qing's family entered the Cao camp and deceived the general's order, its merit is very great, I should reward it." ”

Dongfang Wenjie bowed to the ground and said: "The minister is the society of the country, although he will not move until nine deaths." ”

"It's a good one, even though you can't move, come on. Lin Nan shouted, and all the ministers thought that he was going to reward Dongfang Wenjie with something, but he didn't expect his next sentence to be: "Take Dongfang Wenjie down!"

"Huh?" Baiguan was shocked, Dongfang Wenjie stared at a pair of big eyes, and he didn't know what Lin Nan was doing.

"Your Majesty, what crime did Dongfang Wenjie commit!"

Lin Nan glanced at Dongfang Wenjie coldly, and loudly ordered the eunuch in the front court: "Read!"

"Yes!" The eunuch in the vestibule took out a holy decree from his cuffs, spread his hands and read in a sharp voice: The twenty major crimes committed by Dongfang Wenjie are as follows:

After listening to them one by one, Dongfang Wenjie's legs trembled, cold sweat broke out, and he was unsteady on his feet. I only heard the eunuch in the front court read at the end: "Dongfang Wenjie's crime is great, and he will be executed by Ling Chi of the Nine Gates, and if he does not wait for the time, he will confiscate the family property, and the ten clans will be punished." ”

"Yang Yu, you cross the river and tear down the bridge!" Dongfang Wenjie knew that he was going to die, and his red eyes were about to rush to the throne.

"Bold!" The Imperial Forest Army stepped forward to hold Dongfang Wenjie, Lin Nan sneered and sat down, walked over to look at him and said: "You think that I am greedy for pleasure, and when my eyes are black, I don't know anything, right? I just reminded you, there are many people in the world, don't think that you are the smartest, Yuwensu and I are not the same when we are emperors? Why do you help me not to help him, I don't know your thoughts Dongfang Wenjie? If you are a person who is loyal to the country, I am afraid that these hundred officials are traitors. ”

"You, you!" Dongfang Wenjie said this, and suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed: "I, Dongfang Wenjie, didn't see through you, okay, good!"

"Do you want to kill Yu Wensu first, and then you can transfer troops to kill me, and then you can be the emperor? It's a pity that your abacus is too bad. After Lin Nan finished speaking, he waved his hand and pulled him down.

Lin Nan finally cut off the dissidents, this time the big purge, Yu Wensu, Su Tinglin, Dongfang Wenjie The three major gate valves collapsed instantly, and there were more than 80,000 people who were beheaded alone, and the gate valve power gradually died out. He sent a large army to exterminate the thieves of the Tang family, but the Tang family's father and daughter were nowhere to be found, which made him depressed for a while, but thinking that Tang Ling'er was still alive, the guilt in his heart subsided. Lin Nan also found that he had too many assumptions at this time, and his thoughts at this time were no longer to be a faint king, at least he didn't want to be a faint monarch who died in the country.

First of all, he learned the lessons of the past and adopted a series of policies such as taking agriculture as the foundation, reducing levies, recuperating and recuperating, practicing strict economy, and improving the imperial examination system. However, what Lin Nan attaches the most importance to is the selection of talents, in the consciousness of ancient China, the selection of talents is to strictly follow the principle of having both ability and political integrity, but when a talent cannot have both virtue and talent, which is the bear's paw and which is the fish? Which should be chosen? The traditional saying is, first of all, we must have both ability and political integrity, this is true, but can not have both? The traditional practice is to first be virtuous and then talented, but Lin Nan's practice is just the opposite, he promulgated a decree to seek talent, and publicly put forward a slogan, called "meritocracy" That is to say, when there is a conflict and contradiction between virtue and talent, the first thing to take is talent, not virtue.

As soon as his slogan came out, many ministers expressed their opposition to it, because if a person has problems with at least moral character, how can he be an official? Lin Nan boldly put forward three ideas.

The first is that there is virtue but no talent, and the morality is impeccable, and a good man is a good man, but he can't do anything, so what's the use of taking this kind of person? Second, I can easily find a talented person, and everyone comes to give their opinions and say what is wrong with him, and I use it or not? Third, it is deception, and in order to get the opportunity to be promoted, a talented person has no choice but to put on a show of politics and morality, and this is not okay. Since there was such a defect in ancient China, Lin Nan's practice must be corrected, and the overkill must be overcorrected, but it cannot be overcorrected, so Lin Nan cannot say that he has both ability and political integrity, and must say "meritocracy".

Lin Nan even put forward such a statement, that is, as long as this person is talented, even if he is not benevolent or filial, you can recommend it to me, so Lin Nan's approach when dealing with the relationship between ability and political integrity is: It is best to have both ability and political integrity, but the most important thing is to be meritocracy.

Inspired by this premise, a large number of talents gathered around Lin Nan, including Du Ruhui, Li Jing, Ma Shumou, etc., Hou Junji, Xu Shiji, Luo Cheng, etc.

Later, Lin Nan raised the question of "honesty and corruption," but what was Lin Nan's approach? That is, he reused clean officials and did not avoid petty greed.

For example, some people like to take advantage of small advantages, and when they are officials, they take something by their hands, but the essence of these people is not so bad, and it doesn't matter what they take, so Lin Nan's attitude towards such people is to punish them. In ancient China, we always had to pay attention to honesty and integrity, for example, Zhu Yuanzhang hated corrupt officials the most, and even invented torture such as peeling and filling grass to punish them. As a result, the corrupt officials of the Ming Dynasty were the most numerous of all dynasties, that is, those so-called gentlemen, most of whom were hypocrites, pretending not to take it on their faces, but in fact they still wanted to take it in their hearts.

So Lin Nan first gave the officials a boost, so that their money reached a point where they could not only support their families, but they were only punished in the face of small greed, but they were also very strict for big greed, and they were punished for the big crime of the nine clans, just like a cat that can catch mice and loves to steal things to eat, you don't need to beat him to death with a stick because the cat stole something diǎn, because it still has it, at least it can catch mice.

But these do not mean that Lin Nan does not pay attention to the legal system, he once personally declared: "The law of the world is not the law of the emperor's family." It is a law that the whole world must abide by, so everything must be based on the law. "As a monarch above 10,000 people, if he can say such a thing, I am afraid that it can only be Lin Nan who has traveled through the past.

After the law was formulated, Lin Nan set an example and took the lead in abiding by the law and maintaining the uniformity and stability of the law. In the early years of Huanglong, he truly achieved the same crime as the prince and the people. was selfless when enforcing the law, but when sentencing, Lin Nan thought repeatedly and was cautious. He said: "People can't live again after they die, and law enforcement must be lenient and simple." "Due to Lin Nan's painstaking management, the legal situation in the early years of Huanglong was surprisingly good, fewer people broke the law, and even fewer were sentenced to death, and only three people were sentenced to death within a month.

In addition, the economic characteristics of the Chinese feudal dynasty were "heavy agriculture and suppression of commerce", and the proportion of commerce in the national economy was quite low, and the status of merchants was several grades lower than that of farmers. This is also the main reason why China's feudal economy has not been able to develop substantially.

Under the advocacy of the Lin Nan government, the commercial economy of the Great Sui Dynasty made rapid and rapid progress, and new commercial cities sprung up like mushrooms after a rain. It became the most developed commercial city in the world at that time, and in addition to Jiaozhou, Guangzhou, Mingzhou and Fuzhou along the coast, there were Hongzhou, Yangzhou and Yizhou in the interior, and Shazhou and Liangzhou in the northwest. The capital Luoyang and the accompanying capital Chang'an have become cosmopolitan cities.

In the third year of Huanglong, that is, the third year of Lin Nan's reign as emperor, the Great Sui has become the most civilized and powerful world in the world at that time, and the capital Luoyang is a cosmopolitan city, just like the metropolis of later generations, the Sui Empire is the "sunshine zone" in the minds of people with lofty ideals in all countries in the world, and the outstanding talents of various countries have to risk their lives to run to the Sui Empire, diplomatic envoys from all over the world, after seeing the high prosperity and civilization of the Sui Empire, their own world is in their hearts and uncivilized "primeval forest" Almost, so I didn't want to go back to China, and I wanted to stay in every possible way.

The highly developed culture of the Sui Dynasty made most of the people from all over the world who came to China proud to be Chinese. Not only the capital Luoyang, but also all over the country there are "expatriates" from abroad to settle in the local area, especially in the emerging commercial city, Guangzhou alone has more than 200,000 Western expatriates. The Sui Dynasty became a rare open dynasty in Chinese history, and there were no too strict restrictions on the entry of foreigners and the exit of Chinese, that is, there was no worry that the Chinese would forget their ancestors after they went out, nor would they worry about the noise of foreigners coming in.

At this time, the Chinese people were already highly confident, convinced that their world was the most civilized and powerful land in the world, and they did not worry about foreign culture drowning them. The people of the Sui Dynasty were so high that they neither discriminated against nor flattered foreign nationals, neither blindly xenophobic nor "take-it-or-leave-it", a picture of neither humility nor arrogance, and a kingly demeanor, foreigners in China were like Chinese people in their own homes, enjoying the same civic rights as Chinese people, not only could they get rich, but they could also become political officials, and many expatriates from the Arab Empire and France held official positions in China.

In addition to accepting a large number of foreign immigrants, the Sui Empire also accepted batches of foreign students to come to China to learn advanced culture, but the only one who did not accept it was the Dongying people, and the official government of Dongying sent seven batches of publicly-funded students, each batch of several hundred people, but the Sui Dynasty did not accept it, so that the Dongying nation in the primitive tribal state declined even more, and was almost trampled under the feet of the Koreans.

In the fifth year of Huanglong, Lin Nan ordered the Grand Canal to be dug up, but he was not anxious for quick success, and the labor he recruited was not much, and the process of digging was also very slow, so the idea was to first dig a "Yongji Canal" about 1,000 kilometers long from Luoyang through Linqing in Shandong to Zhuo County in Hebei, and then dig a "Tongluo Canal" about 1,000 kilometers long from Luoyang to Qingjiang in Jiangsu, and then dig a "Jiangnan Canal" about 400 kilometers long from Zhenjiang in Jiangsu to Hangzhou in Zhejiang Province At the same time, the ditch was renovated, so that there will be a river with a total length of more than 1,700 kilometers between Luoyang and Hangzhou, which can be directly connected to ships.

The times have passed, and a few years have passed......

"Brother, what are you doing? At this time, Lin Nan was reading the concert in Nan's study, and An Yang ran in, she had lived with Lin Nan for so long, she even forgot the etiquette, and the eunuchs and palace maids also knew that Lin Nan loved her, so they didn't report it at all.

Lin Nan saw her and smiled: "Come, Yang'er, I heard that you recently learned to do diǎn heart at Gui'er's place?"

"Well, let's not talk about this, you come with me. Anyang couldn't say anything, picked up Lin Nan and ran out.

The two ran out of the palace gate and were meeting Zhu Gui'er, Lin Nan grabbed her and asked, "What are you taking me there?" An Yang winked at Zhu Gui'er and said, "Sister Gui'er, you say." Lin Nan looked at Zhu Gui'er, and Gui'er smiled slightly: "Just now, Dongying sent someone to send a treasure, but I was afraid that the emperor would not accept it, so I sent it to the queen's mother." ”

"What treasures will there be in the country of dwarf?" Lin Nan felt unpleasant when he heard the word Dongying.

"Brother, you will be happy to see it, it is a living baby, even a few of us women like it. An Yang's words had already revealed all the information, and Lin Nan smiled at her little nose and said, "Since you like it so much, then I will give it to you, take it back to your yard."
