"Is this your reward for me? Sing against me at a critical time! The roar of anger shook the dust off the beams, and a large pile of folds was thrown into the distance with the roar of the master. Even the little eunuchs who were standing outside the door of the imperial study couldn't help but shrink their necks, feeling a trace of fear at the anger that overflowed from the room.

Jiang Tian calmly picked up the folds on the ground, and then put these things back on Zhang Tao's dragon book case with an expressionless face, and returned to the original position in the other party's devouring gaze: "I didn't want to be this official in the first place, you have to let me do this dream of rejuvenation with you, you also promised me not to repeat the mistakes of the past, but you can't wait to launch the land reform, now the agricultural economy in Jiangnan has been destroyed, and it will not be able to recover to the original level in twenty years, It may not be seen on paper that even a kilogram of grain production will be reduced or even taxes will be increased, but I can only be optimistic that it will take twenty years for free capital to be channeled into an export economy. ”

Seeing Jiang Tian's completely hob-knife expression, the angry Zhang Tao naturally threw the stack of folds on Jiang Tian again: "Now that I am the emperor, what I want to export is not a holy decree of mine!" What are you trying to do here? Are we so corrupted by a corrupt life that we forget our dreams! ”

Jiang Tian still looked at Zhang Tao calmly, he knew that it was not himself who was corrupted, but the revolutionary in front of him who had been dazed by power, and from the time he said that economic development was just an order under a holy decree, he had already exposed his heart occupied by greed. It's just that this greed is not a personal desire, but the hope to pull out the seedlings to help realize the dream of a strong country.

Zhang Tao's roar spread outside the door, making many eunuchs who were far away from the imperial study mutter, usually the two of you may not be able to hear what the two of you say even if you stick to the door, what's wrong today? It was not surprising that the emperor would be so angry, but it seemed that Lord Jiang did not admit his mistake, and Xizi, who was hiding on the side, was secretly a little worried about Jiang Tian. At this time, I saw Liu Se @ wolf's father, and the old man Liu who was on duty glanced at these eunuchs, asking them to stay farther away from the study, so as not to hear anything that should not be heard.

Jiang Tian looked at Zhang Tao's eyes in the room, and sighed helplessly: "You told me that you want to avoid China repeating the original mistakes, so that the country can be revived in advance, and I once lamented that I couldn't see the motherland really strong, but now why aren't you repeating the mistakes of our Taizu and his old man, do you think that if you simply and rudely defeat the landlords, private capital can be released into commodity circulation?" ”

Zhang Tao, who was still angry, stood behind the bookcase and pointed at Jiang Tian's nose and scolded: "Nonsense! I know better than you about Taizu's merits and demerits! Taizong's chaos is even more personal experience anyway, but don't forget that if the reform and opening up does not have the industrial foundation left by Taizu, you will open up a fart! ”

Jiang Tian replied without showing weakness: "Yes, I said that Taizu's greatest achievement, in addition to unifying the whole country, is that it took thirty years to make China enter the industrial age in a real sense, without a complete industrial system, there would be no later world factory." But that is after the world's major economies have become industrial powers, the development of industry and even the use of agriculture to subsidize industry has become the only way to rise, but we are still in the feudal era, China's production capacity has been unique in the world, even if it is relying on a human loom, Songjiang cotton cloth to the European port landed price is lower than that of people's own production, the quality is a few streets off the European textile industry, what we lack now is not the government control of the capital opening, It is to let more people voluntarily go abroad and enter the world, only when the people at the bottom recognize mercantilism, it is possible to evolve capitalism, you engage in class antagonism now will only let the internal contradictions cover up the potential external crisis, everyone is staring at your land reform working group, who will have the heart to engage in ocean trade? How can the entire bureaucracy be persuaded to engage in an ocean-going navy without sufficient demand? How can you dominate the world without an overseas interest and a military that protects interests? ”

Zhang Tao trembled with anger at Jiang Tian's behavior, and a trace of murderous intent flashed in his heart, but he forcibly endured it again, because without Jiang Tian, no one would be able to rebuild the entire scientific system, even if China could become rich and powerful according to its own ideas, but no one could guarantee that Europe, which had entered the Renaissance, would not surpass China in science and technology, so Jiang Tian not only could not die, unless he wanted to rebel, he had to live well.

Jiang Tian also knew that his behavior today was enough to punish the Nine Clans in the Qing Dynasty, but he still had to continue: "If you hadn't stopped me at the beginning, or simply killed me with a knife, then you could have been clean." But since you have rekindled the dream in my heart, I have to say my opinion, whether you like to listen to it or not, whether you will accept it or not, I must tell you word for word the pros and cons that I can consider, even if I have not experienced the humiliation of the old China, but for the dream of a great power in my heart, I must persevere to the end, even if I will become the second Lushan sword, it can be regarded as the obligation of a patriot. ”

"Good, good, good, after all, you have become a loyal minister who is outspoken and daring!" Zhang Tao looked for what could still be thrown on the table, first saw the jade paperweight and then saw the inkstone, but he didn't take these two heavy weapons, but picked up the brush and threw it over: "You still dare to compare with the old man of the horizontal knife, why are you especially worthy?" ”

Zhang Tao's move shows that the anger in his heart has disappeared a lot, but he is used to monopolizing power, and he will not admit that he is a little in a hurry: "If I didn't know that you were not selfish, you would have died eight hundred times a long time ago!" Besides, who should sue you that I am going to carry out national land reform? ”

"It's because I'm not selfish that I'll tell you this." Jiang Tian listened to Zhang Tao's self-proclaim, changed from "me" to "me" again, and knew that he had survived today, so he began to clean up the folds on the ground again: "To be honest, even if you don't plan to expand the scope of land reform, the proletariat who have already whetted their appetite will take the initiative to expand the class struggle. In the absence of an obvious external threat from China, relying on such radical means to carry out revolution will only leave a gap for speculators. To be honest, before the Northern Expedition, you didn't carry out land reform, and you had already missed the best opportunity. ”

Zhang Tao sat back on his dragon chair. Looking at the painted paintings on the roof, he muttered, "It was a mess at that time...... The troops that I can actually mobilize are all on the front line, who will help me straighten out the rear...... If only you had come a few years earlier! ”

With this sigh, the fiery conversation between the monarch and the minister finally got back on track. Liu Junding, who was outside the door, shook his head, he didn't know who Taizu and Taizong were in the mouths of these two people, and he didn't know which person was worthy of the title of Hengdao immediately, but even today's long live is so respectful, it can be seen that he is indeed the leader of the dragon and phoenix army among people, but how many secrets do the two brothers have? He couldn't figure it out, so he had to let go of this doubt and not think about it.

The two people in the room sat across the table for a while, and Jiang Tian spoke first: "I admire Zhou Wenzheng more and more, without him the old man would not have risen later, it is better not to let me ask about this temple, and be a minister of water conservancy like Fu Zuoyi with peace of mind." ”

Zhang Tao smiled bitterly: "Without real power, before everyone understands the importance of science, what do you do to maintain the status of the Academy of Sciences?" It's also a good thing that you are fighting against me at the court meeting today, at least some of the weak-hearted rats have a shield, in order to let you resist for a while longer, they will not embarrass you again in a short time. ”

The two brothers were silent for a while, and then Jiang Tian spoke: "You say, I am also an official worshipper, and you are the Ninety-Five, even if the world is drunk and only the two of us are awake, why is it so difficult to think about a rich country and a strong people?" ”

"Be content!" Zhang Tao took a sip of the tea that had cooled down: "It was only difficult when I fought against the Qing Dynasty alone, not much easier than the eight-year War of Resistance, or if I didn't create this situation, and prepare a scientific research environment for you, otherwise you would be the one who wants to kill today." ”

Although it sounds like he is showing his merits, Jiang Tian understands that this is all the truth, and without Zhang Tao's efforts, there would be no Jiang Tian who is happy to cheat and brush technology. With the emotion that the world is difficult and difficult to support alone, Jiang Tian walked out of the palace gate with his official hat and swayed, and all the palace maids and eunuchs took the initiative to avoid a way along the way, because everyone heard the story of this Lord Jiang who braved the anger of the murderous Son of Heaven to speak out, and also respected this lord who was not afraid of death.

"Lord Jiang, Lord Jiang?" Jiang Tian was pulled back from his thoughts, and when he looked up, he saw that it was his old acquaintance, Xiao Nei Xizi.

"It turned out to be my father-in-law, I don't know what happened to stop the official?"

Xizi looked around, it was a clean and unmanned corner, and then she whispered: "Lord Jiang, you are scared of the slave maid today, I can see that you are already Amitabha Buddha when you come out, but why are you hanging around with your official hat?" If this is to let the tongue chew the root of the tongue go out, and let some unconscionable play you a crime of dereliction, Your Majesty is angry......"

Jiang Tian couldn't help but laugh dumbly when he heard this, whether it was true or false, he dared to stand up and remind himself at this time, and it could be regarded as a little conscience for this Xizi. Thinking of this, he put on his hat and hurriedly clasped his fists: "Thank you father-in-law for reminding me, I don't dare to ask my father-in-law, what do you think of the matter in Jiangnan?" ”

Xizi heard a stirring in his heart, but seeing that there was really no one left and right, he had the courage to say: "The affairs of this court, originally should not be a slave and a maid to talk too much, if I want to say that our majesty treats the landlords in Jiangnan like that, it is also forced to be helpless, but to say that they died unjustly, but in this way, there must be many people who are worried about the owner's land industry, I am afraid that they must make up nonsense just to fill their own pockets, and it can only be said that some people may not be able to die." You speak for these unjustly killed people, you can already be regarded as selfless, according to the foolish opinion of slaves and maids, which dynasty and generation had such unjust, false and wrongful cases when the country was founded, only blame them for not knowing the times and offending the Son of Heaven, and you will be upset for them. ”

Xizi's words made Jiang Tian feel even heavier, he and Zhang Tao did not hesitate to turn their faces in order to avoid the country from taking some more detours, but in the eyes of ordinary people, there are not many people who have sympathy for the Jiangnan landlords, or even more so the schadenfreude, at least these Shengdou small people do not understand the meaning of the class struggle, in their opinion, the Jiangnan landlords just offended the emperor, and then were killed on some trumped-up charges, as for how much impact this will have on their lives, There is no idea at all what role it will play in the revival of the country. So what's the point of the tense quarrel between himself and Zhang Tao? With this kind of stunned mood, he finally returned to his house, but as soon as he entered the door, he found that all the people looked at him with strange eyes, and then saw Liu Baokai and Wu Yuan and they hurriedly greeted him.

Wu Yuan looked at him with a solemn expression: "Sir, you are back, I don't know what punishment you can get if you ask in front of you?" It's not me, who is a student, who said that you, today in front of the civil and military officials at the court meeting......"

Before he finished speaking, he hurriedly stopped the conversation: "Didn't my father spread the word, saying that it was safe and sound, to say that the friendship between His Majesty and our husband is not ordinary." ”

Jiang Tian didn't answer, but looked behind them, except for the equally anxious Xinyue, Xiyun and Meng Daya and the daughters, there was no one else. Wu Yuan saw him glancing behind him, so he said knowingly: "Dexin is still busy outside the city, and we didn't notify him when we saw that there was no major problem." ”

Jiang Tian shook his head: "I'm not looking for Dexin, didn't this nostalgia come with you?" ”

Seeing that he asked about Tian Xuhai, Wu Yuan and Liu Baokai glanced at each other, and then replied with a perverted @wolf: "Brother Huaigu, I have already sent someone to deliver the letter, I think it was a delay on the way, right?" ”

Jiang Tian still shook his head, he knew that Tian Yu's old guy must have prevented his son from coming over, don't look at the entire Jiangnan Confucianism seems to be wiped out, only if he stays out of the matter at the beginning can he be regarded as a wise self-preservation, but this old thing will never show loyalty to the reformers lightly, especially today that he is so against the emperor, he is not sure about the future direction of the situation, as for whether the emperor is killing chickens and monkeys or taking the opportunity to set off a higher storm and waves, he is not sure about his mind for a while, so the best way is not to deal with any faction.

Now that he knows the old fox's little abacus, Jiang Tian doesn't care about any changes in his camp: "Didn't you see it, Your Majesty may not be a person who can't listen to advice, and our class will continue tomorrow, so let's go home and rest." ”

Just when the two of them wanted to say something, a little guy ran over and reported: "Master, Tian Gongzi is asking to see you outside the door." ”

After a while, I saw Tian Xuhai walking in sweating profusely, and when he saw that he was late, he took the initiative to say: "It's okay if Mr. is fine, there are some trivial matters in the student's house." ”

His behavior can be regarded as a statement, and it can be regarded as telling everyone that he and his father have drawn a clear line in politics, and it is rare to be able to make this choice when Jiang Tian angers the emperor, so whether it is Wu Yuan or Liu Baokai, they are all impressed by this former friend and current classmate.

Jiang Tian nodded as an affirmation of him: "Huaigu doesn't need to worry, His Majesty has already accepted my opinion, and it must be a turning point soon." ”

It stands to reason that this kind of right and wrong in the court is just a matter in the circle of officials, but when Jiang Tian re-walked to the podium with the handouts in his hand the next day, he found that the spread of this matter was beyond imagination, and it was at the level of his hometown's Internet messages, because he found that all the students seemed to be looking at him with a little sadness in a kind of worship.

"What's wrong with you?" Jiang Tian didn't know what kind of wind these students were smoking.

Wu Yuan, who knew the inside story, shook his head helplessly, and Liu Se @ wolf replied to him with some tears and laughter: "Mr. doesn't know, it's just one night's work, and the story of you risking death has spread in Sijiu City, and one by one you have noses and eyes, saying that you have been pushed out of the noon gate to be beheaded, and before the execution, you still asked for your life for the people, and finally your majesty admitted that you were overkill and let you go home." ”

Jiang Tian's hairs almost stood up when he heard this, who is trying to harm himself? Although the process is a bit exaggerated, the ending is not much different, the key is that this is not an eye medicine for Zhang Tao! Jiang Tian, who came back to his senses a little, hurriedly asked: "Who came out of this?" ”

As soon as they heard this question, all the students looked at Jiang Tian a little embarrassed, and finally said with a strange expression: "I don't know who passed it on, but just now I saw Zhao Zhi talking about the book endlessly!" ”

When Jiang Tian arrested the kid and asked him, he found out that he didn't make it up, but someone made up a joke to preach it in the whole city last night, anyway, the central idea was that he Jiang Tian was righteous and awe-inspiring, and finally said that the tyrant bowed his head and admitted his mistake...... Originally, this kind of interpretation would not be believed by the people of Huangchenggen, but it didn't take long for the cabinet to issue a new order on the land issue in the south of the Yangtze River, saying that some landlords were wrongly killed due to the occasional fabricated charges in the rioting provinces......

"Alas......" Two sighs sounded at the same time, and Jiang Tian and Zhang Tao sat in the imperial study and smiled bitterly.

"Didn't you say those rats wouldn't hurt me? Why did you stab me in one night! ”

Zhang Tao also sighed a little: "Now you know what they are, right?" If you hadn't come to me and asked me if it was my message, you would have thought you were making a name for yourself. ”

The person who came up with this strategy was indeed vicious, he calculated that there was a dislike between the emperor and the first favorite minister at this time, even if it was not yet Cheng Dù who broke up, but he used this method to hit another wedge, that is to say, this person's goal was to target Jiang Tian from the beginning, and he tried every means to bring him down, but he didn't know that the bond between these two people to maintain the relationship was beyond the scope that ordinary people could understand, so the actual effect was not good, but it also exposed that there was still such a force eyeing him in the shadows.

"Since that's the case......" Zhang Tao rolled his eyes: "Then let's play the play more realistically!" ”
