Chapter 739: Returning Home

"In addition, there is a business concept that can be used to explain this matter......" At first, he was cautious, but after a long speech, Li Zhaoxian's interest also rose, and he told his latest experience. 【】

"Business?" From the beginning of the conversation, Yang Shen's expression had always been light, but at this time, his brows moved, and he sighed in surprise.

"Well, it's business." Li Zhaoxian nodded affirmatively, "There is a concept of monopoly in business, which roughly means that a certain business has an absolutely dominant position in the industry it is engaged in, and has enough power to speak in pricing and cost control...... This is called a monopoly. ”

Li Zhaoxian's explanation didn't use many professional terms, it was easy to understand, Yang Shen thought about it, and then nodded, indicating understanding.

"With the exception of certain special industries, monopolies start to have benefits, and then they quickly become shackles...... The monopoly position will suppress the growth of others, and the monopolist himself will lose his enterprising spirit, and every monopoly is a process of prosperity and decline. With cultivation, don't you think that this situation is very similar to the rise and fall of China for thousands of years? ”

"It's really similar......"

At the beginning of the founding of the country, Confucianism was dominant, and it was possible to eliminate dissenting voices, integrate resources, and devote itself to all kinds of construction work, which was very efficient and politically clear.

It won't be long before things change. After monopolizing the court, the scholars quickly lost their enterprising spirit and were not enthusiastic about expanding their territory and expanding the influence of the dynasty. Because they were afraid that someone else would take the opportunity to grow up and threaten the status of the Confucian children, the abandonment of Annan was one of the clear examples in the Xuanzong era.

From the Qin Dynasty onwards, Annam was part of China until the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period, when it was split for the first time. After the founding of the Ming Dynasty, Chengzu Zhu Di sent Zhang Fu to lead his troops south to Annan on the grounds of restoring the homeland of the Han and Tang Dynasties, and in the second year, he eliminated the usurping Hu regime, with 48 prefectures and 3.2 million households.

However, just over 20 years later, Emperor Xuanzong fooled Emperor Xuanzong into recalling Wang Tong's army of 80,000, deposing the political secretary of Jiaozhi, and giving up the inherent territory of China.

The suppression of Zheng He's fleet, the implementation of the forbidden sea, and the defensive position of the Tartars in northern Xinjiang were all for this purpose, they themselves were not interested, and they did not want others to fall into the favors.

"Monopoly for a long time, not only will people lose their enterprising, but also make people arrogant, the idea that the Confucian sages will not be wrong, eighty percent also comes from this. So, it's not that there are no smart people in the court, and those adults are very shrewd; It is not that the DPRK and the Central Committee are without good officials who are honest and upholding, and who have the people in mind, but the first thing they want to maintain is the stability of the system, which is above all else. ”

Bending down to pick up a handful of white snow, then turning over the palm of his hand, scattering the crystal in the wind, as if some kind of sacrifice, Li Zhaoxian said slowly: "With Xiu, Uncle Yang was not forced to death by anyone, if you have to say that there is, he is only forced by some kind of outdated and outdated system, this system has also come to an end, if you want to make new achievements, you can only break and stand up, but unfortunately, Uncle Yang has not been able to see this clearly." ”

Yang Shen looked at Li Zhaoxian seriously, sighed and shook his head, "Brother Li, I understand what you mean, and I understand it too...... I just heard some news, and I couldn't accept it for a while. ”

Under the influence of tradition, in Yang Shen's mind, the champion talent, the father who worshiped the prime minister, is undoubtedly a hero who stands up to the sky and the earth, and is also the idol he has always longed for. suddenly became a sinner who colluded with the Tartars, which really made him a little at a loss, not to mention how could the relationship between father and son be separated, even if he didn't plan to take revenge, he was sad in his heart.

Due to the changes in the Jiajing period, Yang Shen has passed down to later generations, only his reputation as a talented man, a few deeds in the Zhengde period, and there are not many records of political tendencies and achievements. In fact, you can get a glimpse of it from the performance in the Great Etiquette Incident, before the accident, this talented man was a person with an upright surname.

This kind of surname made him learn the law like a fish in water, but in the face of the current complex situation, it was not what he was good at. There was silence in the Guiyuan, and when he looked around blankly, it was easy for people to touch the scene and feel sad, so that he couldn't get out of it for a long time.

"The deceased is gone, and time is hard to chase," as if to comfort, but Li Zhaoxian's tone became excited, "Use cultivation to cheer up!" The old and stale things have left, and they have killed my uncle, why don't you and I try our best to let the new Ming come faster and come more vigorously, so as not to repeat this tragedy again? ”

"Brother Li......" is more effective than comfort, or this kind of encouragement, Yang Shen raised his head violently, and his originally godless eyes also glowed.

"Wow!"

Li Zhao's encouragement worked, and he was about to strike while the iron was hot and cheer up his friends completely, when he suddenly heard a earth-shattering noise from the north, like spring thunder, shaking the majestic city under his feet, making it tremble.

"It's Andingmen, the emperor is back!" It was from that direction that the people of the capital could make such a big move, and combined with the current situation, Li Zhaoxian quickly made a judgment, which was quite accurate.

As soon as the two of them turned their heads, the earth-shattering sound of 'Banzai' also sounded, the voices were a little uneven, but they maintained the same rhythm, either someone was directing or someone was leading.

In the entire Ming Dynasty, the most often shouted these two words, only the Guards, when they hold on to the retreat, they will shout, they will shout when they charge, and they will shout when they defeat the same, and the word long live for them is synonymous with victory and glory. Even the courtiers who said that they were in the court and abided by etiquette did not shout these two words as often as they did.

In the north, according to the stars, it belongs to Xuanwu. Xuanwu is the main sword soldier, so he sends troops to fight, and generally goes out of the city from the north gate.

Deshengmen and Andingmen both belong to the nine gates of the capital, and in the north, in the event of a war from Deshengmen troops, by the Andingmen class division, is the practice of the Ming Dynasty, when the ancestors went north, it was so.

The meaning of Desheng Gate is "to win by virtue", which is the sign of "winning the flag", and the meaning of Andingmen is "too peaceful and stable".

"May I be bright for eternity, and I will always be safe and stable." It's definitely too late to rush over now, Li Zhaoxian can't care about comforting his friends anymore, looking at the north, thinking of the scene where the people welcome the heroes and the soldiers and the people shout long live, his heart is also swaying, and he can't help muttering to himself.

"May my Ming people never be poisoned by foreigners again." In fact, there is no need for him to comfort him, the encouragement of the male master's triumph is far beyond the scope of words, and under the agitation of his heart, Yang Shen also stood solemnly and prayed silently.

The Ivy Academy is south of Chang'an Avenue and north of Xuanwu Gate in the west of the city, far away from Anding Gate.

People are waving their arms vigorously and shouting with all their strength. Many people who had planned to look for their sons in the queue first were also infected by this warm atmosphere, and they forgot their original purpose, or they regarded each teenager as their own sons, and just cheered with emotion.

Most of the people who came today went to Chengtianmen when Zhengde went out of Beijing, and then sent them to Deshengmen, but it was more than two months ago, and people's memories are still very clear.

At that time, the soldiers of the Guards, although they had bright armor and strong physique, looked very powerful and majestic, but people always felt a little uneasy in their eyes. Most of the faces are still childish, but the opponent is a murderous Tatar, no matter how optimistic people are, they will be a little worried.

Although no one showed it at the time because of the confidence of Zhengde and the Guards, everyone was still quite worried afterwards. When Xie Hong followed Zhengde to the west, the accumulated sorrow suddenly broke out, making the atmosphere at that time very depressing.

Now that the New Year has passed, the teenagers have grown up a year older, but from the outside, they are not more than a year old.

In the cold winter, two months turned into a thousand miles, and this experience made everyone's face with the color of wind and frost; Before leaving Beijing, the guards were full of sharpness, which made people feel a kind of worry that could not be last for a long time, but now, the sharpness has not disappeared, and their faces have more perseverance, which makes people feel a lot more relieved; The most obvious change is the murderous aura on them. In the past, the Guards were very famous, but only the original 3,000 Xuanfu children were really after actual combat, and the rest of the people, in the eyes of the outside world, seemed to be just playmates who played with Zhengde.

But now it's different, whether it's marching silently or chanting slogans, there is a murderous aura in the neat queue, even those who have never been on the battlefield can easily feel it.

The louder cheers were given to Xie Hong, the change, the great victory, the hope, all brought by this young man, although he has not yet realized, the great achievements of the once unique champion Hou, but people firmly believe that that day will come sooner or later. Isn't it just a wolf Juxu? For Hou Ye, how difficult is it?

Of course, the most conspicuous and powerful person in the queue is not the Guards, nor is it Xie Hong, once there was Zhengde, as long as Zhu Houzhao appeared, no one could overshadow him.

It is rare that Zhengde sat firmly in the car and waved to the crowd on both sides of the road in high spirits, however, no one would misunderstand that he had grown up, so he changed his surname, because the reason why he would sit in the car was obvious, and everyone who watched it knew it.

The emperor not only won the battle, but also brought a daughter-in-law back, looking at Zhengde's triumphant expression, people sighed, it was really a good return to his hometown.
