In the dim candlelight, Fei Yi looked at Zhao Yong's somewhat depressed appearance, couldn't help sighing, and said quietly: "There is no need for your lord to be so tired, some things must be done step by step, and it is counterproductive to rush for quick success." But whenever you encounter wind and waves, you need to remember that 'stick to the original intention, and there will be a generous gift in the end'. ”

When Zhao Yong heard this, he was like an empowerment, and the yin in his heart was swept away, and he respectfully made a big salute to Feiyi, and said gratefully: "Master's teachings, I feel five things." ”

"It's okay, don't be too entangled. However, the matter of the law that the king said, forgive the old minister for being dull, and he has not yet understood the deep meaning of the king. "Fei Yi is very good at handling the relationship with Zhao Yong, he will not often put on the teacher's shelf, at any time, he remembers that Zhao Yong is a gentleman and he is a minister, and he also remembers that he is a teacher, he is a student, it is this kind of relationship between teachers and friends that makes Zhao Yong feel different warmth.

"Master, which of the 'Three Orders of the Restoration' do you think is the most important?"

Fei Yi pondered for a while, and said uncertainly: "It seems that it should be 'clear the accounts and acres, and compile the people into the register', because if this article can be passed, the king will be able to grasp the current situation of my Zhao country." Moreover, as the king said, the so-called three decrees of the Restoration, in the new but not in the order, the important thing is to let the people gradually adapt to the fact that the Zhao State is about to enter a period of change, so the three decrees are almost all foreshadowing, and there is no actual code of action. ”

"The master has a heart." Zhao Yong said, "In fact, in my opinion, among the three orders of the Restoration, the last one I pay the most attention to. ”

Fei Yi groaned slightly, and tried to ask, "What the king said, but do you allow border people to bring their families into the border to obtain land?" ”

"Not bad." Zhao Yong said with a smile.

"Why does the king care so much about this?" Fei Yi was very puzzled.

"Master, Gu went out many times and communicated with the Crane Guanzi, believing that the hope of the people lies in the land, and the prosperity of the country also lies in the land." Zhao Yong paused and continued: "Que Guanzi once said that Shang Jun changed the law, opened up the Qianmo, and abandoned the well field, so that the cultivators have their land, and the state will protect them. From then on, the land cultivated by the common people was no longer for the sake of scholars, but more for themselves, and the state only received a part of the benefits because it was the owner of the land. Since then, Shang Ying's order has been written, and the people have been happy. After a pause, Zhao Yong continued, "I think it was this decree that made Shang Ying offend Long Jia and others at that time, and it was also because of this that Shang Ying was subjected to the polarity of the five horses." ”

Seeing that Zhao Yong talked about this history, Fei Yi's heart sank, and he said tremblingly: "Shang Jun was later persecuted by others, probably because of this law. ”

Zhao Yong heard that Feiyi's tone was different, and naturally knew what he was thinking, but he still said as follows: "I know why the master is so careful, because of the law of the Shang Jun, although he benefited the people, he offended the officials of the Qin State, so that he committed suicide. However, in any case, it is an indisputable fact that the people benefit from it and the country benefits from it. ”

"Junshang" Fei Yi thought about it, although he supported Zhao Yong's reform, but if he changed the law like Shang Ying, the end might not be better than Shang Ying. So he said, "Although Qin Mu changed the law with the martingale, the Qin State was governed, and the people felt its virtue." However, as soon as Qin Xiaogong died, Shang Ying could not retreat with his whole body. It can be seen that Shang Ying did not understand that the people he protected were not yet capable of protecting him. Therefore, as soon as Qin Xiaogong died, Shang Ying fought alone, and it was naturally inevitable that he would be in a different place. Fei Yi wiped the sweat from his head and continued: "Although the monarch is the king of the Zhao State, the power of the Zhao State is even stronger than that of the Qin State. The king forgot, why did Zhao move the capital to Zhongmu? ”

The so-called relocation of the capital to Zhongmu actually has a story.

Zhao Xiangzi Zhao Wuxian is actually not Zhao Jianzi's son-in-law, but his youngest son, and Zhao Jianzi's son-in-law is Bolu. However, after Zhao Jianzi's investigation, he thought that Zhao Wuxian was more capable than the prince, so he set up Zhao Wuxian as the monarch. Although Zhao Wuxian is the beneficiary, he always feels that he owes the Bolu lineage, so after contributing to the Daidi, he divided the Bolu lineage in the Daidi and called Daichengjun. Later, before his death, Zhao Wuxian abolished his son, and instead set up Bolu's grandson Huan as the new monarch of Zhao State, which was for Zhao Xianhou.

However, Zhao Jia, the son of the deposed Zhao Wuxian, disagreed with his own Laozi's approach very much, so he united his own forces to expel Zhao Xianhou Zhao Huan and set himself up as the new monarch, which was for Zhao Huanzi.

However, a year later, Zhao Huanzi died, and the Zhongqing and Zhao princes believed that Zhao Huanzi was not the heir designated by Zhao Xiangzi, and his son was not qualified to inherit the position of Zhao Guojun, so they killed Zhao Huanzi's son and re-established Zhao Xianhou Zhao Huan.

However, through this incident, Zhao Huan also deeply realized the strength of the clan, so after he grasped the power, he immediately announced the relocation of the capital to Zhongmu. Although strategically speaking, this is to serve the Central Plains strategy of Zhao State, but the most direct reason for it is precisely because the power of the Zhao State Clan is too strong, and even the monarch has to be afraid of three points, so he left Jinyang, where the Zhao family's high temple is located, and moved the capital to Zhongmu.

Fei Yi used this story to tell Zhao Yong that the power of the Zhao State was probably even greater than that of the Qin State. If these issues are dealt with rashly, I am afraid that they will lead to unforeseen trouble.

"I know what the master means, it's because I let the master take the position of this secretary." Zhao Yong smiled slyly.

"What do you mean by that?" Fei Yi was a little puzzled.

"Master, the reason why Lone is bent on pushing the law of Juntun, and even does not hesitate to suppress Sima's opinion, is to take this opportunity to experiment with the land to the people. Master, you see, the law stipulates that those who commit crimes will be relocated to the border and military camps, and military relatives are encouraged to move to the border and grant land. Although the border passes are clear, the land between the rivers is fertile and abundant. The implementation of tuntian can greatly reduce the dependence of the land on Handan's grain and grass, and the country will reap its benefits. ”

Fei Yi nodded.

"Secondly, the method of tuntian is equivalent to granting land to the people, at first, it may not be customary, but once this is started, other people will come to the scene. What we need to do is to stipulate the tuntian as a national policy in accordance with the law, and require all localities to actively organize the tuntian. In the past, the Shang Emperor decreed that all the people of the Six Kingdoms who belonged to the Qin State would be exempted from three generations of servitude; The mountains, mountains, and swamps within the four borders of the Qin State were exempt from taxes for ten years. So the people of the six countries went to Qin one after another, and for a while, the population of Qin increased by one million, and the number of fields cultivated increased day by day. What Gu did was to avoid the high-class land coveted by the scholars and doctors, and to promote the people's acquisition of land and private ownership by reclaiming wasteland and granting land for tuning. What the master has to do is to put forward a decree to ensure that the land of these people who have reclaimed wasteland is protected by the state. Zhao Yongyue said, the more excited he became, "After a few years, the greater the benefits of tuntian, the more people will be able to reclaim wasteland and private land, and the more people will be able to find an opportunity to fully implement private land ownership and allow people to buy and sell land." Through these steps, we will advance layer by layer, and finally in full liberalization. In this way, the pressure will be less, the law will be stricter, and the people will be more supportive, the possibility of rebellion will be lower, and the country's popular power will be further unleashed. ”

The shortest path between two points is not necessarily a straight line, but probably a curve with the least obstacle. In fact, Zhao Yong's method is to slowly change Zhao Guo through the principle of gradual progress. The advantage of this approach is that it avoids the drawbacks and contradictions brought about by drastic reforms, and eases the problems between the two, but the disadvantage is that if the rulers are lax in their willpower or give up halfway, it is easy to bring about total negation.

"Therefore, the king asked Zhao Cheng to be the Sikong, firstly, in order to use his identity as the patriarch of the clan to gain the understanding of the Zhao clan and ease the pressure of the clan on you, and secondly, with the strength and power of Zhao Cheng, even if there are individual officials to confront him, he can also be suppressed, after all, he is your uncle, and in the entire Zhao country, no one is closer to you than you and him. Others just want to move him, but they also have to look at your face and dare not drag their feet behind. ”

"The gentleman's intelligence is really beyond the reach of the old man." This sentence vividly expresses Feiyi's mood, "For this reason, the minister will assist the king and do this well." “

"Is there Master Lao?"

"Don't dare. But what does the gentleman think seems to be more meaningful? Fei Yi said with a smile.

"Uh......"

"It is reasonable to use the law to carry out the duty of breaking prison, but it is the first time that the law has been used to supervise and promote the development of the country. The king uses power to balance hundreds of officials, and promotes development with law. This approach is a bit contrary to your opinion of Shang Jun. ”

Ginger is really old and spicy! Zhao Yong looked at his unfathomable master, and said with a wry smile, "The master is really smart." Although Lone disdains Shang Jun's approach, but for the sake of now, Shang Jun's law is not a bad law, if Zhao Guo wants to be strong, Shang Jun's law still needs to be learned, but the twelve words must be remembered. ”

"Which twelve words?"

"Take its essence, develop its strengths and avoid weaknesses, and adapt measures to local conditions."

"Wonderful!"

After sending Feiyi away, Zhao Yong lay down on the floor tiredly, but Xi, who came in from outside the door, was worried that he would be seen by others and be easily criticized, so he hurriedly stepped forward to remind Zhao Yong, and then arranged for two palace people to come forward and rub his shoulders for him. Although this work has always been my own work. But after Zhao Yong's opposition, Xi had to find two palace people to teach them the art of kneading, and specially serve Zhao Yong.

"What time is it?"

"It's almost time"

"Is there anything else?"

"The eldest lady came here just now, and I hope that the king can go to her. I told the people of the palace that the king was discussing state affairs with his master and would go later. When Lord Hiyoshi left just now, I had already sent someone to inquire, and I think there will be news in a while. "It's a pleasure to be a person from the old palace, and he can almost do everything about this kind of thing, and he doesn't need Zhao Yong to bother with his tongue.

After a while, a eunuch came to tell Zhao Yong that the eldest lady invited you to the harem. Zhao Yong had to pack up his fatigue and walk towards the harem.

In fact, he knew that this time, it must be for the marriage with South Korea.
