No. 174 stubborn
Lin Feng's tone did not change, on the contrary, he became more and more severe, intending to tell the people who were going to stop the implementation that he had their own intentions, and there was no need for the other party to speculate on the holy will.
He didn't have the ability to burst out with the breath of the tiger's body, but he also looked forward to waking up those stubborn old-fashioned people through this voice of accusation.
"Over the past few decades, Zheng Liang has changed the law one after another, and they have gradually become rich and strong, King Heng of Zhao is dying, knowing that the old forces in the DPRK and China are also clearing the obstacles to changing the law, even a country as strong as Zhao has to adapt to the development of the trend of the times, does Yan still have to hold the old things and old concepts into the coffin board? Today, the new policy continues to be implemented and deepened, and I don't want to cause bloodshed, but if someone is working against me, congratulations, you're done.
Situ, you have traveled all over the world and have seen a lot of things, you say that the way of governing the country should not be changed, should it be innovative, and what kind of governing concept is suitable for Yan Guo? ”
Congratulations, you're done playing, and you vividly express your attitude, at present, to transfer the topic to Situ, you just don't want to listen to useless nonsense.
The conservative forces in the DPRK and China shifted their eyes to Situ in unison, probably guessing what Lin Feng meant.
Asking Situ is simply right in the middle, Yan people don't know, Situ and Wen Jishi are the two advocates of changing the law, they are the emperor's right-hand man, hardcore allies, and they are in favor of the implementation of the new policy.
Situ continued to study the art of a hundred schools, and was particularly proficient in the art of changing the law, and was reused in the Yan State, replacing Zhao Shide, the old minister of the Yan State, as the secretary of the ministry, because of his full support for the new policy, the implementation of the new policy, if it was a war, Situ and his subordinates. Always on the front line.
He is quick-witted, knowledgeable, and has deep insights into the new policy: "The emperor's words. It is true, that's right, natural selection of the fittest, nature should be like this, and the princes and countries should be like this, and the time to change the law will not wait for me, and continue to delay. The achievements of the Yan Kingdom were ruined, and he was listed as a colleague and a minister of the fallen country. ”
Glancing at his colleagues, Situ continued: "The Great World Dispute. The Warring States period is approaching, and now hundreds of schools of thought are contending, and each family and faction have many ideas, and the art of governing the country and strengthening the army. Numerous.
Zheng Liang and the two countries changed the law. King Zheng ruled the country in a Taoist way, and Liang ruled the country in a domineering manner, and indeed made a lot of achievements, but unfortunately the reform was not complete, and he did not dare to scrape the bones to cure the poison, and he could not ascend to the position of overlord after all.
Only the rule of Legalism and the repetition of the code in troubled times is the fundamental way to govern the country. However, the rule of the Legalists is irresistible. The implementation is bound to be a river of blood, and the resistance is extremely widespread. Once implemented, it makes a lot of sense. ”
"I have discussed with Master Wen that Yan Guo's implementation of the legal system may not be a matter of governing the country, but there must be systematic laws, and it is difficult to govern the country without rules.
During the reform of the law, the monarch and the ministers have always been of one heart and one mind, thinking in one place, and working hard in one place, so, but in three years and five years, Yan Guo will inevitably be reborn and win a new life. Otherwise, the monarch and the minister will be two-minded, the laws and regulations will not be unified, and it will be difficult to achieve results in changing the law. Without great perseverance and perseverance, how can earth-shaking changes be formed and a strong country formed! ”
"Yan State implemented a new policy, mainly to solve the problem of population and law, to solve these two things, Yan State is a tiger into the mountain, a cage into the sea, without any restraints.
According to my personal investigation in the past few days, the land of Yan is vast and sparsely populated, but the rich families and nobles have miscellaneous slaves, but there are dozens of people, hundreds of people, dozens or even hundreds, serving a few people.
This practice is extremely absurd, not to mention the reduction of the labor force, the abandonment of a large amount of fertile land, and the scarcity of foreign troops. So slavery is abolished, and the cultivators have their fields,? ”
It is difficult to save non-promotion decrees, and the implementation of laws and regulations is like a sea of mountains, and if the old aristocratic traditional thinking is not completely broken, how can we talk about the ambition of strengthening the country? Situ's words were said in a very heavy tone, and his voice was sonorous, and every word was beautiful, resounding in the Jinluan Palace.
Not only to deter the aristocratic old ministers, but also to be recognized by many people, affected by the new deal, the promotion of the civil and military generals, heard the words have nodded one after another, after all, they are the beneficiaries, without the new deal, there is no today's them, carp leaping over the dragon gate, the king worships the general, almost daydreaming, therefore, the implementation of the new policy, extremely supportive.
"Well said!" Lin Feng admired Situ's eloquence, this guy is worthy of being a lobbyist who has traveled around the world and preached the idea of changing the law.
Taking advantage of the silence in the Jinluan Palace, Lin Feng glanced at the ministers, and then Situ's words continued: "The new deal must not be rushed, I have never been in a hurry, otherwise, two years ago, the old system of the Yan Kingdom would have been completely broken and the new policy would have been implemented." But the harm caused by this is also unquestionable. The same is true for the promulgation of decrees, the decrees are stable, and the iron laws must be abided by for a long time, and the people can accept the new policies and laws imperceptibly! ”
Having accepted the culture of the information explosion era, Lin Feng knows very well the difficulty of the new deal or the change of the law, and the drawbacks brought about by being too hasty, and it cannot be achieved overnight, let alone implement the new deal today, restore it tomorrow, and change the policy day and night, in this way, it will be easy to lose the trust of the people, and the royal family will have no authority.
At this time, Zhao Shide, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, stepped out of the list of ministers and arched his hand: "Your Majesty, Wechen supports the emperor's new policy, but Wechen thinks that the implementation of the new policy is enough, there is no need to abolish slavery, and those who practice it have their land." Yan is located in the north, the untouchables have not yet been civilized, slavery is abolished, and there is no restraint, and the crime rate is bound to surge. Yan Guo has eliminated foreign enemies, and it must not be because of the implementation of the new policy to destroy the national strength of Yan State, the emperor thinks twice! ”
Above the court of Yan State, on behalf of the old aristocratic forces, there are three important ministers, the military department Shangshu Wen Jishi, the criminal department Shangshu Liu Chengfeng, and the Ministry of Industry Shangshu Zhao Shide.
These three people, the family is a century-old family in Yan Kingdom, and they are deeply rooted in Yan Country and have great influence.
However, Wen Ji was as good as a stream, and fully supported Lin Feng's implementation of the new policy, while Liu Chengfeng did not fully support it, but he did not refute it, and was in a neutral attitude.
Only Zhao Shide, who is also Lin Feng's minister, the first few times, he had a lot of support for Lin Feng, yesterday, Lin Feng specially convened all the important ministers, hoping that the voice of the monarch and the minister would be unified, who knows, he changed his words today and went against the grain.
Before, he was in charge of the promotion of officials in Yan State, and he was in a high and powerful position, but he also gathered many people around him. He stepped down from the post of secretary of the ministry and served as the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, and he was still the head of the six departments, and many people in the court were promoted by him.
As soon as this remark came out, many cronies nodded one after another and jumped out to support Zhao Shide's view, believing that the New Deal could not be continued, or that the time was not ripe to continue to deepen the New Deal.
Lin Feng looked at it, secretly unhappy in his heart, and silently counted the number of people, more than forty people in the court, thirteen people were the only ones Zhao Shide, a lot of power.
He will not pursue these people for forming gangs, as long as the monarchs and ministers are of one heart and one mind, and they are united to implement the new policy, it is a good thing to form gangs and factions, and if these people obstruct them, don't blame him for doing it together.
At this moment, Lin Feng has not yet spoken, Situ, as the head of the implementation of the new policy, will naturally not show weakness, and said: "The emperor succeeds to the throne, Yan Guo is like a dying old man, the wind and candle are in his old age, I don't know how long he can last, last year, the Rong clan went south and almost wiped out the Yan Kingdom, which was the result of conservatism."
If the Yan State does not rise, it will inevitably be ruthlessly left behind by the princes and countries, and the old forces of the Yan State have been hit hard, providing a good premise for the implementation of the new policy.
The emperor took the opportunity to implement the new policy, and in the past two years, the Yan State has grown rapidly, the cavalry has fought in the east and the west, and the merchants have come and gone, and the country has developed in a good direction.
Now, the new policy has reached the point of deepening and perfecting, and Lord Zhao does not support the emperor's words and deeds, so he is ready to watch the Yan State repeat its mistakes and become the last vassal state.
Today, Lord Zhao does not support the emancipation of slaves, and I will ask in the next question, who cultivates the wasted land, where will the soldiers come from, is Lord Zhao ready to take his family to the front line, or go to the field to plow the land? ”
Situ's tone was extremely heavy, more like criticizing Zhao Shide, Zhao Shide was speechless by Situ's words, and on his fat body, cold sweat dripped from his forehead on a cold winter day.
Glancing at Lin Feng, who was not smiling and smiling, Zhao Shide retreated to his original position and stopped talking, if he obstructed it again today, he might be able to roll up tomorrow and get out.
Zhao Shide kept silent, and the people who were attached to him naturally would not take the initiative to find themselves bored, and the court was quiet for a while.
At present, the affairs of Yan Kingdom are complicated, and it is precisely when people are needed, Lin Feng did not pursue Zhao Shide's words, and said: "Situ's theory is not unreasonable, today only Lord Situ can work hard, serve as the head of the new policy, according to the hundred schools of thought, take its essence and remove its dross, and draft documents!" ”
At the same time, he said to Zhao Shide: "Zhao Aiqing, if you don't advance against the current, you will retreat, Yan is in the position of the last of the countries, and you can't catch up with others if you can't catch up with others, how dare you go against the grain!"
Your words are not to obstruct the New Deal, indeed, the New Deal should not be rash, but should be taken step by step. It's not that I don't understand these truths, otherwise, I really wouldn't have agreed to free the slaves yesterday and the royal funding.
The purpose of the new deal is to enrich the country and strengthen the people, and it will definitely not threaten the interests of the people. ”
Zhao Shide is honestly afraid, since ancient times, he has been with the king like a tiger, in the court for two years, he knows Lin Feng's character, he is not a person who will take the initiative to surrender and retreat, he said so much today, which gave him enough face.
Next, if you don't know what to do and deliberately obstruct the new deal, I am afraid that not only will the good days end, but even the head of the project will be in danger.
He doesn't understand the truth that things must be reversed.
Next, Lin Feng didn't pay attention to Zhao Shide anymore, what he said was clear enough, if he was still stubborn, he couldn't save him.
Immediately, he proposed a unified measurement, a unified currency, the relocation of the people to the three counties of the Hunhe River, the establishment of the Golden Terrace, the issuance of orders for meritorious people, and so on.
After talking about the new policy, Lin Feng took out the letter sent by the Black Flag Pass and sent it to An Heng, who handed it over to the ministers to read.
