Chapter 399: Resentment and Conspiracy
“…… How the folk talk about classifying, what the literati say, and classifying. Taishi Cai has been a ruler for more than ten years, some good things and some bad things, but it is not so simple to evaluate. Now in the court, the head of the military ministers is Tong Shumi, and when it comes to Wenchen, it is not the old man or Li Xiang who holds the hope of the world, but the old lady who writes at home. To be honest, if there is really any problem with this Northern Expedition, if Li Xiang and I can't hold it, the only one who can really suppress the scene is his old man. ”
After dinner, Qin Siyuan talked to Ning Yi, led him towards the garden behind the Prime Minister's Mansion, and also talked about Cai Jing in passing. This old man, who has been a slaughterer for more than ten years, has a bad reputation at the bottom at this time, and the reputation among the literati is mixed. Qin Siyuan is also sixty years old, speaking of the other party, he still has to call him an "old man", thinking that if Li Gang and Qin Siyuan are dismissed, the other party is probably the first person to restore a stable situation.
Fortunately, this time Li Gang came out of the prime minister, which coincided with the best time of the Northern Expedition, Qin Siyuan is like the sea, although there is no accumulation of more than ten years of Cai Jing's slaughter, but it is by no means a fuel-efficient lamp, which is comparable to it. This kind of situation should not happen for a while.
Qin Siyuan also talked about this casually, and he didn't have a deep meaning. Accompanied by several guards, the two walked to the rear garden, Qin Siyuan asked someone to bring Go, as if in Jiang Ning, he was ready to play a game with Ning Yi, and after chatting a few words, the old man asked: "What do you think about Liheng in governing the country?" ”
This question was really too formal, and Ning Yi was a little surprised. After hesitating for a moment, he smiled and said, "Lord Right Minister...... Some of them asked Yu Blind, right? ”
He said something strange about the right minister, Qin Siyuan laughed, and while he was talking, someone came with his family, but it was Cheng Zhouhai who came to visit the Prime Minister's Mansion. After saluting the teacher, Qin Siyuan waved his hand and motioned for him to sit down next to him.
"There are many difficulties in this Northern Expedition, but now Tong Shumi has stationed troops in Liaojing and confronted Xiao Gan. The ever-winning army surrendered. The Liao people were under the attack of the Jin people. Defeat and retreat. If everything goes well and the war ends within this year, it is also possible to recover Yanyun. After the battle is over, the next thing is to settle...... "The old man dropped the chess piece." "So Liheng might as well talk about it casually."
"Whatever?" Ning Yi smiled.
The old man smiled and nodded, "Yes." Say whatever you want. ”
"Okay. Then whatever you want. Ning Yi looked at the chess game, thought about it, and dropped the chess pieces. waved his hand: "Qin Xiang is here every day, looking at this city, what do you see?" ”
At this time, the pavilion where the two are located is on a rockery in the back garden of Xiangfu, the terrain is slightly higher, although it is impossible to overlook Bianliang, but the light formed by the night in the city, the lively atmosphere can still be felt. Cheng Zhouhai looked around, and Qin Siyuan smiled: "This problem is a bit big, right?" Liheng may as well speak bluntly. ”
"Do you see any resentment?"
"Huh?" Qin Siyuan frowned, "Why do you say this?" ”
"If you want to talk about it, you have to see resentment." Ning Yi held the chess pieces at his fingertips and rubbed his fingers, "In this world, everyone is born and will inevitably have contacts with the people around them, and there will be collisions and frictions, and large and small grievances will also accumulate from this." ”
"I had a fight with my neighbor today, it was a grievance, a fight with someone else, it was a grievance, I was deceived when I bought something, I was resentful, I was slashed by someone for no reason, and I was also resentful. Sue the official, the official protects each other, there is resentment here, the trial is unfair, there is resentment...... These grievances, big and small, are kept in mind, some can be eliminated, and some can't. To death, a write-off, Qin Xiang said that the rule, I think to be realistic, it is this grievance that is cured. ”
Qin Siyuan was stunned and dropped his chess pieces: "Liheng's words are quite innovative. ”
"Those who can talk nonsense may not be able to do it, I am just talking on paper." Ning Yi smiled and continued: "There are two aspects to deal with grievances, education and justice, education is morality, culture, and customs, Sage Confucius said that the prince of heaven and earth is a teacher, and he is in a row, and the sage said, Shinong and Industry and Commerce, list a list of important and unimportant, think about it, if you are a farmer, you have never studied, you don't ask much, and the scope of life is only one village and one town, this kind of person, even if you are bullied, you feel normal, you forget it at night, and there is not much resentment." I'm like this, I've read some books, I've walked a lot, I feel great, and I've had a lot of collisions and frictions with people, and whoever looks down on me gets angry in my heart, and I guess I'm ...... have a lot of grievances in this life."
When he said this, Qin Siyuan and Cheng Zhouhai, who was listening next to him, both laughed. Ning Yi then said with a smile: "In this world, the moral standard is better, they are polite to each other, and they all know what they can and what they can't do, so there will be less friction and less chance of resentment." People have different levels of education and reasoning, and people have different positions on themselves, and when they encounter different things, the possibility of resentment is also different. ”
"Culture and customs tell everyone what position you are here, what respect you deserve, morality lubricates this society, you come home, your neighbors are harmonious, your brothers and sisters are courteous, your wife is gentle and kind, these things will ease your resentment. And justice is the most difficult means to solve the problem. ”
Ning Yi dropped his chess pieces: "I had friction with Brother Cheng, and I had resentment, and I couldn't solve it, so I couldn't feel comfortable, so I could only sue the official." If the judiciary is trusted, the government acts according to the rules, is fair and strict, and the above sentence is convincing, and the resentment can be dissipated. But if the judiciary is not fair, and everyone in the world feels that officials protect each other, and the law is useless, I and my brother Cheng go to report to the official, the first thing we think of is to look for relationships everywhere, and in the end, his relationship may be able to suppress me, but I tend to avoid it for a while, and the resentment in my heart still cannot be resolved. And he is rich and powerful, even if I accept it for a while, he will still think that I dare to provoke him, and I will regret it, and even the resentment in his heart cannot be eliminated. Then justice will be a joke. ”
He shook his head: "This grievance will be nothing for a while, but people will remember everything that has happened in their lives, and slowly the resentment will intensify, if there is too much resentment before death...... Man will kill. If you want to rebel, some people don't dare, but they are more likely to be instigated by others, they are more likely to become a scourge, people have strange temperaments, and there is no one to trust each other anymore. The most important thing in a society is always to eliminate this resentment and make it ...... The milder the symptoms, the fewer the people, and the better the world. ”
He said that. Qin Siyuan and Cheng Zhouhai were silent for a moment. Cheng Zhouhai said with a smile: "In this way, isn't it the best to be indoctrinate?" Everyone is a peasant, and if there are no scholars, there will be no resentment......"
"But humanity is better." Ning Yi smiled. "You seek to be well fed. Pursue well-dressed. After eating and dressing, I want to have a girl, and after I have a girl, I want to pass on the lineage, and I also want to do something meaningful in the middle. Some things are self-explanatory. Social development should eliminate grievances so that they do not collapse, and eliminating grievances is also to make society more stable. The development of this thing can't be stopped, it's like changing the law......"
He paused: "In all dynasties, every time the law is changed, it is not a smart person who has thought of a good way, so it has promoted the way of the world. It's the development of the world, and when it reaches the checkpoint, people come out to implement changes, because everyone sees that it must change. If they can't go, their resentment will increase, and when they reach a certain level, they will have to implement a new method, so that everyone will have a hope, and the purpose of every change of the law, the purpose of adjusting the court and social structure, is mostly the same, and if some people are dissatisfied, they must be satisfied. The law of the world has always appeared when people use it, not when it appears, and people follow it......"
After he said this, Cheng Zhouhai thought for a while: "In this world, there are indeed more and more readers, and it seems that it will not be long before it will change?" ”
"Let's hope something changes." Ning Yi replied casually, "In fact, there are more and more businessmen, they have money and the mind to climb up. Aren't many high-ranking officials now also influenced by businessmen? Now they can slowly influence, and to a certain extent, they will definitely push to change...... Oh, I'm also in business......"
Cheng Zhouhai frowned, and after a moment, he nodded in agreement: "A large number of people will die." ”
Ning Yi is still watching the chess game: "A social trend will change for twenty or thirty years or hundreds of years, and I will hide it." ”
He actually didn't say a word, Wu Chao is now Wen Tian and Wu Huan, and it seems that he is singing and dancing, but in fact, he doesn't know if there is a chance for Lu Dao to change. But after this sentence, Qin Siyuan, who had been listening to him and playing chess in silence, opened his mouth.
"Liheng...... Do you have any ideas to prepare for the things that are being promoted in Badaozhuang? ”
Ning Yi frowned. Since he went to Beijing, he probably knew that Qin Siyuan was very interested in this, and he would ask once, but he didn't expect to ask this question.
"That's a home remedy." After thinking for a while, he said, "It has nothing to do with governing the world. And...... It's hard to say now, but if you have the opportunity to see the results, you can discuss them later. ”
He looked at Qin Siyuan.
It is indeed just a home remedy, and it is a cure for weakness, not the way of the world. The most commendable thing about that revolution in China's modern history was the incitement of every grassroots member who participated. Before that, every rebellion, uprising or large-scale armed struggle, the level of incitement only stayed at the level of scholars and generals, and the real low-level members always just followed the tide, and there was no value of incitement. And the value of this incitement can only be reflected in combat effectiveness, and has little to do with other things.
Qin Siyuan nodded and smiled: "Liheng has such an idea and such an ability, when he comes back from Shandong, why not go to study Guozijian and try his fame?" ”
Ning Yi also laughed: "I'm just talking nonsense." For those things...... I don't have the ability, and I'm really not interested. ”
Ning Yi's ability to do things was already there, where would Qin Siyuan question his ability, but at this time, he could only smile and shake his head: "Okay, okay, let's talk about this matter later...... There is something else to do today, and this game is considered to be lost by the old man. Zhouhai, you accompany him for the teacher, and if you want to leave later, you will also send Liheng. Oh, when Liheng leaves the day after tomorrow, I'll send you off. ”
He left Ning Yi today, and the main thing seemed to be to discuss the "governing of the country" with Ning Yi, and after saying it at this time, he hurried to deal with his own affairs. When the old man's back disappeared, Ning Yi turned his head to look at the sea of boats next to him.
"Brother Cheng, didn't you come here to find me?"
Cheng Zhouhai came over this time, he didn't say anything to Qin Siyuan, and looking at his expression, it seemed that he also had something to tell him, Ning Yi was slightly puzzled. Over there, Cheng Zhouhai looked up at the sky and smiled and arched his hands.
"Still have time, talk as you go?"
"Okay."
At the same time that the two of them left the Qin Mansion together, in another place in Bianliang City, Zhou Pei put a dagger into his arms, and with a resolute look, he was loading himself into a hemp bag. After the sack put her in, the mouth was sealed, and then it was opened again, Zhou Pei drilled his head out and looked at it, before he went in again and said to the person next to him: "You guys are lighter." ”
The moonlight was gentle, two days before Ning Yi was about to leave Bianliang, the night before he really left Bianliang, something was happening...... (To be continued......)
