Chapter 52: The Revolution Goes By
On the court floor, the king of Pakistan sat on the high hall very happily and said: "Qi'er implemented the reform in Pengcheng, and its harvest is great, and the taxes paid by Pengcheng are ranked among the counties and states of Pakistan, enriching the treasury, and Qi'er is indispensable for this change." ”
Gongzi Qi stood up, looked up at the king of Ba above the court, arched his hands in front of him, bent down and said: "The implementation of the reform in Pengcheng this time depends on the wisdom of my father, as well as the assistance of Zhang Ji, Gongsun Zichou, Meng Zhongzi, Chen Zizhen and other virtuous ministers, so the sons ask for credit for these people, the credit is not in the sons, the credit lies in Zhang Ji, Gongsun Zichou, Meng Zhongzi, Chen Zizhen and others. ”
"Qi'er is not greedy for merit, this is a model for hundreds of officials, you Aiqing should set this as an example, reward Gongzi Qi, Gongzi Sun Chou, Meng Zhongzi, Chen Zizhen, Zhang Ji and others cloth thousands of horses, gold and silver thousand taels. Qi'er, why do you say they are official? ”
"Zhang Ji succeeded Wei Ying, the Legalist is a master, good criminal law, strict law, Zhang Ji is the great secretary, in charge of the country's criminal law; Gongsun Tzu is good at debating, Shi Renzheng has the ability to assist, and he is named Sima Qing and assists Xiangguo in managing national affairs; Meng Zhongzi treated people leniently, was upright, understood Zhou etiquette, restored Sikong's official position, and made him Sikong in charge of the country's etiquette; Chen Zizhen is good at managing the people, stressing benevolence, righteousness and morality, and is now the position of the county commander, and he is promoted and promoted according to his ability and merit. ”
"Okay, do you have any objections?"
The court was quiet, and they were all hesitating, wondering whether Gongzi Qi's change would be beneficial or harmful to them. Xiang Wang Rong stood up and said: "The king, the prince is committed to change, and he is doing his best for this country, and the ministers have no objections." ”
"Okay, read the will."
The king of Ba looked at the eunuch next to him, and the eunuch stood up and opened the holy decree and read: "Zhang Ji, Gongsun Zichou, and Meng Zhongzi listen to the seal." ”
Zhang Ji, Gongsun Zichou, and Meng Zhongzi stood up and knelt down and said, "The grass people are here." ”
"Feng Zhang Ji is the great Sikou, Gongsun Sun Chou is the great Sima Qing, and Meng Zhongzi is the Sikong, and each of them will reward him with a thousand horses of cloth and silk, a thousand taels of gold and silver, and he will be admired for this."
"King Xie, the king has no borders," Zhang Ji, Gongsun Zichou and Meng Zhongzi stood up and retreated. Gongzi Qi stood up and debuted: "Abolish the slave sacrifice, funeral and other systems, Qingzhang national land statistics and its population distribution of their land This initiative has been implemented in Pakistan, and the sons of the ministers have drafted a comprehensive reform plan, and the first big way to open the way, so that officials at all levels in the court dare to tell the truth, tell the truth, contribute to the country's major policies, and forgive those who say not guilty; Second, to rectify the administration of officials and restore the system of collecting work style, whether or not the people's customs in a place are simple and whether they are properly governed depends on the local officials' ruling policy and the measures they take, and they are promoted or demoted, or cut and succeeded according to the merits of the officials in each locality. If this plan is implemented throughout the country, people will be panicked, so it will first be implemented locally, such as the capital city of Langzhong, so that it can pass up and down; Third, unify the weighing and measuring instruments, such as large buckets in small buckets, barrels, weights, balances, zhang and other units of measurement. The change will represent the rise and prosperity of a country, and the merchants of the various vassal states will flood into the territory, which will also cause chaos in the market, for which the currencies of various countries will be uniformly exchanged into the currency of our country, and all the commodities in the market will be facilitated in the exchange of currency; Fourth, according to the military industry, those who do not have military merits in the clan are not allowed to be included in the official family register, and private fighting is strictly prohibited, and those who participate in private fighting will be severely punished. Erchen recruited some cottage bandits in Focheng County, but Erchen had a suggestion to train these cottage bandits to become guards of the royal capital and protect all the safety of the royal capital. Those who violate these changes will be severely punished, including the royal family. ”
Gongzi and Evil stood up to refute Gongziqi's reform measures, and said: "King, Erchen refutes the initiative of the eldest brother to be knighted according to the military industry. ”
Gongzi and a group of officials behind the evil stood up and said: "King, these reform measures will definitely offend those noble princes, and it is absolutely impossible for the ministers to think about this reform plan, and please think twice about the king, and also for the sake of the king." ”
Some officials who retorted stood up and said: "Only by governing the country according to the old rules can officials be familiar with the rules and the people will be stable and not chaotic." ”
"If the country wants to change, if it wants to be rich and strong, it will inevitably offend those powerful people, and it is an extraordinary move at an extraordinary time, and the country must be rich and strong without being ravaged by its external powers, only change. Father, having a lot of doubts will only miss the opportunity, and the opportunity must not be lost and will not come again. "Childe Qi made his debut.
Zhang Ji stood next to Gongzi Qi and said: "For lower-level people, you can't discuss the plan with them, you can only share the benefits of success, so ordinary people only know to be content with the old habits, and scholars are often stuck in the scope of knowledge and can't extricate themselves. Shang Jun once said that smart people make laws and policies, and stupid people will only be subject to others; Virtuous people change with the times, incompetent people stick to the rules, Gongzi Daxian, is a smart person, a virtuous person. ”
The king of Pakistan looked at Wang Rong and said, "Wang Aiqing, what objection do you have to Qi'er's reform measures?" ”
"Gongzi Daxian, for example, Guan Zhong changed in the Qi State and ruled for forty years, according to the situation, set up officials at all levels, selected scholars, rewarded diligence and punished laziness, levied taxes, unified minting, managed coins, formulated fishing and salt cooking methods, and became a hegemon to respect the king of foreign countries; Li Kui changed the law in Wei; Shen Bu harmed the law in South Korea, for 19 years, internal cultivation of politics and religion, external should be the princes, fifteen years, the end of Shen Zi's body, the country is strong and there is no invasion of South Korea; In particular, Shang Jun changed the law in the Qin State, ruled Qin with hegemony, and made the Qin State above the Six Kingdoms of Shandong. The son is talented, the change respects the king's way, benevolence and righteousness, and the minister agrees with the change of the son. ”
The widow's wife is the sister of the king of Han, who once persuaded the widow to learn from Shenzi to reform in Pakistan, but now that he is gone, the widow regrets not listening to his good words. Now Qi'er is changing in Pengcheng, with outstanding political achievements, and few people are allowed to change. ”
Gongzi and evil entered his mansion and scolded: "Wang Rong, this old horseman, in the future, when I sit on the throne, the first thing I will kill is you, Wang Rong, the old horseman." ”
At this time, a subordinate entered the mansion and reported urgently, "Your Highness, Your Highness, it's not good, it's not good, Gongzi Qiqingzhang is our family's acre." Childe and Evil hurriedly walked out and said, "What? Big brother Qingzhang is our family's field," Childe and Evil kicked out after hearing this, and the subordinate was kicked away by Childe and Evil, and then knelt up again and climbed forward to the feet of Childe and Evil, and said, "Yes, Your Highness." ”
"I believe this is not the order of the eldest brother, who gave the order?"
"The Great Priest Zhang Ji."
"Zhang Ji, he has eaten the gall of the bear's heart and leopard, go, I think who dares to Qingzhang our family's fields?"
Gongzi and Evil took a few evil slaves to the field and said, "Which of you dares to break ground on the head of Tai Suiye?" ”
"Second son, it's a lower official, please don't interfere with the lower official's affairs," a law enforcement official walked out.
"It doesn't matter who you are, where is Wang Er, do it." Childe and several evil slaves behind the evil man rushed out, and several officers and soldiers behind the law enforcement officer pulled out steel knives and rushed out against each other, and the law enforcement officer stood in the middle of them and said, "You guys stop, Childe said that the private fighter will be severely punished." The officers and soldiers who rushed forward retreated, and they were hit by a blow to the head, and the law enforcement officer died on the spot because of a heavy blow to the head.
Gongzi Qi led Xiong Ganglie, Erzi and a group of Montenegrin brothers into the mountains, where the forest was lush and lush, and it was dark and dark. Gongzi Qi stood in the middle of them and said: "You are training here, it is secret and safe, and it will not be discovered by other vassal states, but there are many wild beasts here, are you ready to fight with wild beasts?" ”
"Childe, don't worry, even in the fierce beasts, we will be invincible as long as we are united."
"Well, okay, you are the first field army of our country, and if you can survive here, you will be an elite and fierce army of kings, and the responsibility of protecting the people and protecting the royal capital will be handed over to you," Gongzi Qi stood in front of them and knelt down.
"Childe, we can't afford you like this," Xiong Ganglie knelt down in a daze. Gongzi Qi lifted them up and said, "You deserve to be worshipped." ”
"We will definitely live up to the trust of Childe."
After saying goodbye, the prince returned to the mansion of the third prince Chuzong, and saw that the third prince was so thrifty, and when he came out to receive him, he was wearing old clothes, so he asked: "Third brother, you are so thrifty, the eldest brother is ashamed." ”
"Big brother pushes for change, if you are not thrifty, how can the people be rich? How can a country be strong? ”
"The mind of the third brother, I am ashamed to be the eldest brother."
"The eldest brother is too modest, the eldest brother's talent surpasses that of the younger brother, and when the eldest brother is free, he will definitely come to the door to ask for advice."
"Definitely, definitely."
At this time, an officer and soldier entered Chu Zong's mansion, stood in front of Gongzi Qi, knelt down and said, "Gongzi, the second prince killed the law enforcement officer. ”
"What? How did Zhang Ji deal with it? ”
The perpetrator Wang Erhal was beheaded in the city, and the second son was still in prison after being arrested, waiting for the son to come back and deal with it.
"Well, Mr. Zhang did a good job."
After bidding farewell to the third son, Chu Zong, the prince of the prince, he left in a hurry.
