Chapter 1181: Established National Policy
Forcing the powerful to split up is Li Zhongyi's conspiracy and an established national policy.
Li Zhongyi has little reading, but his insight is far beyond the excellence of the ministers!
The ancients regarded the family as the basic unit, and a single family was insignificant in the face of the fundamental interests of the family.
The so-called separation, as long as anyone who has read Han history, can see through it at a glance, it is a tui en order to change the soup but not the medicine.
The magnates, landlords, nobles, and scholars can also choose not to divide their families, so whether it is taxes or forced labor, they will slowly drain the blood of their entire family.
According to the new tax law, the new land endowment, and the new style of forced labor, it only takes more than ten years to implement the situation, and the huge and prosperous family that has been inherited for more than 100 years will be transformed into a clan with heavy debts. Therefore, not separating the family is definitely worth the loss!
In the millennia-old small-scale peasant society, the means by which the powerful and scholars made their fortunes remained almost unchanged, either by taking advantage of the famine to buy the land of homesteaders, or by using the power of the local government to loot and plunder.
Xu Jie, the first assistant of the Ming Dynasty, who was whitewashed in the history books as the first contributor to the eradication of Yan Rape, occupied nearly one million acres of high-grade fertile land in Songjiang Prefecture alone.
In small-scale peasant societies, powerful families often took advantage of the opportunity of their protégés or disciples to seize real power in the local area, not only embezzling the interests of yeoman farmers, but also easily concealing huge farm assets.
What is even more hateful is that the families of the powerful rely on the advantages of not being forced to do labor, not being poor, and not paying grain, and wantonly accept the land and property of the yeoman farmers, which is equivalent to lying at home and counting the money, how can they not be rich and flowing?
However, this kind of good life, since Li Zhongyi commanded the strong army to enter Kaifeng City, has never gone away.
Li Zhongyi is indeed a womanizer, and the reputation of Lao Li next door has spread all over the world. When the dignitaries and nobles who have joined the country and take refuge in their spheres of influence, if they do not give away a few stunning women, it is simply called insincere.
is lustful, it's just Lao Li's hobby of collecting beauties next door, and for his bad problem, the dignitaries and nobles can at most scold a few words in private.
However, Li Zhongyi's basic national policy of suppressing the powerful and severely cracking down on land annexation and land concealment has moved the cheese of the powerful and dug up the roots of their continuous blood-sucking.
Li Yun and Li Chongjin rebelled almost at the same time, which concealed the fundamental contradiction between Li Zhongyi and the scholar class, which belongs to the contradiction between you and me.
Since it is a contradiction between the enemy and me, Li Zhongyi ruthlessly cleaned up Li Yun's whole family, which is equivalent to a stern warning to those powerful people who are ready to move: Come on, see if Lao Tzu's knife is hard, or is it your clan's old and young people's hard heads?
Originally, under the co-governance structure of the county under the imperial power, the scholar class colluded with the local tyrants and inferior gentry to occupy the real power in the vast countryside, and the emperor's jurisdiction only extended to the cities.
After Li Zhongyi came to power, he brazenly adopted the governance model of the imperial power not only going down to the county, but also stationed in the village, which was tantamount to cutting out the power foundation and economic resources of the scholar class.
What made the scholar jealous of the doctor the most was that Li Zhongyi actually concentrated the power of patrolling and policing in various places in the hands of the police temple, even if it was the governor of the prefecture and the county, he had no right to intervene.
Li Zhongyi's method fundamentally removed the basis for the powerful to use officials or officials to do evil, so that the evil forces in these places could not rob the interests of the grass people unscrupulously.
In short, if we want to rest with the people and make the country rich and strong, it is necessary to curb the privileged sphere of the bureaucratic landlord class.
Li Zhongyi held the teacup in his hand and listened to Wang Dahu's lectures and examples with relish, which was simply endless, and righteous and crooked reasoning emerged in endlessly.
On the other hand, Wang Dahu's debate opponent, Wang Dun, the right attendant of the Ministry of Rites, gradually ran out of words, and the content of what he said quickly deviated from the track of the law, talked about the benefits of governing the country with virtue, and used it to deduct his hat indiscriminately.
"The royal history of the royal capital, the sage has clouds, the gentleman is frank, the villain is a relative, the ancient prosperous era, the road is not forgotten, the night is not closed, and the criminal cases are very few...... Wang Dun chewed the words and said a lot of so-called rule by virtue, although Li Zhongyi understood it, he was quite disapproving.
However, Li Zhongyi did not show half of his impatience, brainstorming, encouraging telling the truth, and never being convicted for his words, which has always been a new trend in the political arena that he has vigorously advocated.
Wang Shilang's statement is fallaous. Guan Zi said: Cang is honest and knows etiquette...... When you are born, and when you use it, you will have to give in to your material resources...... Full of warmth and silver desire, hunger and cold steal hearts...... Since the late Tang Dynasty, the heroes have risen together, recklessly, and the city head has been constantly changing the king's flag...... Don't talk about anything else, the land of the six states under the jurisdiction of the traitor Li Yun alone, the taxes have been received for 50 years, and the grass people can't even eat enough, so why don't they leave the road behind and don't close their doors at night? Wang Dahu's impassioned sonorous statement made Wang Dun speechless.
The so-called 50 years of Xiande is, in fact, one of the important criminal evidences of Li Yun's rebellion.
When he ascended the throne today, Fan Zhen made a final decision, and the year name was Shaoxu, and now it is the fourth winter of Shaoxu. Shao Xu, Shao Zuo Chengxu, which means that Chai Zongxun ascended to the great treasure, with irrefutable legal system and bloodline legitimacy.
However, no matter how loud the name of the era is, after all, it is still respected by the strong and strong.
The so-called thief of the hook, the king of the thief of the country, is such a truth!
Although the current era name is still Shaoxu, Shaoxu's time is running out. As long as you are not a real fool, anyone with a discerning eye can see that Li Zhongyi, the most vicious enemy of the Zhou family, will sooner or later usurp Zhou and establish himself as emperor, and it will become a logical thing to change the era name.
Previously, Li Yun had been using the era name of Xiande on his one-acre and three-point land, but he regarded Shaoxu as nothing.
Success and defeat are the truth!
If Li Yun's rebellion succeeds, not only can he cut off Li Zhongyi's head as a night pot, but also take away the stunning women in the backyard of the Li family at will, even if the tax is levied until the ninety years of Xiande, it is just an interesting matter for the founding monarch.
However, Li Yun's years were unfavorable, not only was he defeated, but after being captured alive, he was captured in Daqingmen, and his fifty years of Xiande became one of the most solid evidence of the crime.
After Wang Dun was forced to retreat by Wang Dahu's stern words, Su Ru continued to take the initiative to stand up in the scholar heap and play a relay-style debate drama.
Li Zhongyi just immersed himself in tasting tea, but he never said a word, and his posture of listening and understanding was very clear.
Wei Renpu secretly admired, the lord of the new dynasty obviously has absolute strength, but he has always been tolerant of the ministers who openly express different opinions, and this mind alone is far superior to the first emperor Chai Rong.
Li Zhongyi didn't ask Kang Ze to leave, Kang Ze kept hunching his waist, drooping his head, and respectfully serving on the side of the throne, ready to listen to the Lord's orders anytime and anywhere.
