Chapter 1268: Feng Yunshan's Character Flaws
Feng Yunshan was stunned!
He didn't expect that Luo Zenan used his explanations and statements as a basis to refute himself!
According to Luo Zenan's speculation, isn't that exactly what happened?
In later generations, almost all the capitalist countries in the West were like this, and the power of their countries was controlled by one or two major political parties, and the main ruling parties, whether the so-called Labor Party, the Republican Party, or the so-called Democratic Party, although the interest groups represented behind them were somewhat different, in fact, they were all the same thing, that is, they were not ordinary people at the bottom, but their corresponding whether they were big capitalists, factory owners, financial chaebols, or middle-class elites, and so on.
Even if he was bald, under the banner of Sun Guofu's Three People's Principles, he eventually merged into the torrent of big capitalists, landlords and bureaucrats, and became an outstanding representative of the big bourgeoisie and landlord compradors.
Even in the end, the members of a certain labor party in a certain country gradually did not represent the trade unions literally, but slowly turned to the capitalists and vested interest groups such as the financial plutocrats, the bureaucratic and commercial compradors, etc., all of which proved the correctness of Luo Zenan's speculation. The development trend of this society must be like this: after a period of accumulation and running-in in a new country, the final direction of power distribution must end with the formation of a huge interest group and the seizure of ruling power by interest groups. Because only in this way will the whole country and society be stabilized, and such a point is the best balance point, otherwise, it will continue to shuffle until such a balance point is finally formed.
Feng Yunshan had to sigh that Luo Zenan's thinking and perspective were sharp.
"Luo Aiqing, what does this mean? Of course I don't want to see that. Feng Yunshan sighed: "Of course I am reluctant to hand over the country that I have worked hard with my old brothers. And why do I still think about handing it over, it's just that I want the entire Chinese people to live a better and better life, and I think that the Chinese Empire can become stronger and stronger. In my concept, I have always feared that after a hundred years, if my descendants and those who succeeded me as the emperor of the Chinese Empire were incompetent, they would lose the country that I had conquered, leading to a war between various forces and causing the people to live in misery, or at worst, the country would be torn apart and even invaded by powerful external enemies. As mentioned earlier, if my throne is just a superficial decoration, and instead of actually taking care of the affairs of the country, I choose or appoint cabinet members to manage the government, which can effectively avoid this situation. ”
Luo Zenan's brows furrowed, he shook his head, bowed to the ground, and said, "Your Majesty, please forgive Weichen for his bold and arrogant sin!" ”
Feng Yunshan showed a hint of a smile, he had never seen such a Luo Zenan, and said: "Luo Aiqing has something to say, but it doesn't hurt to say it, I don't blame you!" ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Luo Zenan took over and said: "Weichen thinks that His Majesty seems to have a very serious knot, and this knot is that he always thinks that future generations must bury the Chinese Empire and make the people suffer, and the elected cabinet government will definitely let the people live a good life." Actually, this is a fallacy! His Majesty's knot, Wei Chen doesn't know why, and it is so deeply planted in His Majesty's heart, but this is indeed a wrong psychological factor.
Your Majesty once said that the criterion for all affairs is to proceed from reality and seek truth from reality in a realistic manner. Why didn't His Majesty do that now?
What is the reality of our Chinese empire today? It is a super empire with a land area of more than 40 million square kilometers and a population of 500 million, which has never been seen in China or in the whole world. And such a country was created by His Majesty leading the captives of our empire in just ten years. Can Your Majesty bear to watch such a great empire disintegrate? Falling apart again? ”
Feng Yunshan shook his head: "Of course I don't want to!" However, Aiqing, why do you say that? What does this have to do with the cabinet I am talking about? What does it have to do with what you said about seeking truth from facts? ”
The others also looked at Luo Zenan in amazement: Luo Zenan is crazy today.
Luo Zenan didn't care about the eyes of others at all, and said to Feng Yunshan: "Your Majesty, Weichen hasn't finished talking yet. What Wei Chen meant was that the Chinese Empire was too vast, with many nationalities and a large population, and if there was no suppression by the founding emperor like His Majesty, and without the powerful armed suppression of the field corps of the Capture Army, it would be easy to split again. And as His Majesty said, when the cabinet is changed to the head of the cabinet, and His Majesty's descendant, the emperor of the Chinese Empire, becomes a representative of the head of state with no real power, in this case, Weichen dares to conclude that the Chinese Empire will definitely fall apart, not only discarding the new land added over the years, but even depleting the original old capital.
Your Majesty, if you think about it carefully, you can know that Weichen's words are true. Our Chinese family, starting from the Qin Dynasty to the Manchu Qing Dynasty, has always had a high degree of centralization in all unified central dynasties, and all localities and provinces can only obey the administrative orders of the central government, and only in this way can the integrity of the entire country be guaranteed. If it is in the form of a cabinet election, the power of the entire country is handed over to the cabinet, and there is no monarch who integrates the power of the central government to suppress it, and Weichen dares to guess that it will not be long before the country will be completely divided according to national composition, geopolitics and other factors!
In particular, cabinet members are usually constrained by the lawmakers and interest groups behind them, and fully represent their interests. And in the end, when these large interest groups begin to have contradictions or even splits within themselves, or simply because these partial interest groups conflict with the overall centralized interests of the Chinese Empire, these partial interest groups will inevitably cause these cabinet members who represent them to make moves to split the country. When the time comes, if there is no monarch like Your Majesty who can suppress all forces and command the heroes, I am afraid that what will face the Chinese Empire will be a feast of partition! And in the end, the ordinary people of the Chinese Empire, who are completely unrepresented, can only become victims of national division or war! ”
Feng Yunshan was completely stunned after listening to Luo Zenan's words!
He never imagined that he would make such a mistake, and his political sensitivity and consciousness would be so plain. Moreover, he also recognized his own character flaw, which was that he was a little hesitant and seemed to waver in his own ideas at any time with the words of others. Fundamentally, he was not too suitable to be a politician in his own right, but the situation pushed him to the position of emperor.
It's the same again today. He suddenly found that what he had been thinking seemed to be a little wrong and he had entered a misunderstanding. And what Luo Zenan said seemed to be more far-reaching and more reasonable than he thought. He couldn't help but sigh that he was misled by those online posts in later generations and forgot the roots. Luo Zenan is right, what ultimately determines a country is not actually a system, these are just icing on the cake rules and regulations, which are themselves formulated by the ruler, and it is actually the most powerful interest group that ultimately determines the power and direction of a country!
