Lu Chenhuan led the army to open again, and the next location was Shandong Road, and the target was the water thieves in Shandong. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info Actually, the reborn Lu Chengqi only knew in "Water Margin" that there was a Shuibo Liangshan in Shandong. It's very cool to watch "Water Margin", there are one hundred and eight heroes in it, all of them are men who stand up to the sky. They talk about righteousness, rob the rich and help the poor, and the characters in Shi Nai'an's pen are all vivid.

But Lu Chengqi knows that this so-called green forest hero is a factor of social instability. When it was none of his business before, Lu Chengqi admired these people very much, at least they dared to say what they wanted. But after becoming an emperor, his views and everything changed. After all, the location is different, and the angle of looking at the problem is naturally different.

Lu Chengqi seriously recalled the background of Shi Nai'an's writing of "Water Margin", which was at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, when the Han people were overwhelmed by the Mongols and urgently needed to get rid of the Mongol rule. And literati can't participate in scientific examinations, so they can't think of their careers, so they can only place their affection on literary carriers such as novels.

For all kinds of reasons, Shi Nai'an compiled a strange book based on the long-standing stories of the heroes of Liangshan, "Water Margin", the purpose of which is to arouse the blood of the Han people. For example, "Water Margin" is all about a righteous word, as well as loyalty to the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty. What is "only against corrupt officials, not against the emperor", does this not imply that the Han people should strengthen themselves and establish a Han dynasty again?

But if you face these so-called water thieves yourself, as an emperor, you will be troubled. A dynasty needs stability and development, and these water thieves are unstable factors, and they must be eradicated, there is nothing to say. Officers and soldiers are officers and soldiers, and thieves are thieves, and no matter how good the reputation of a thief is, he cannot get rid of the fact that he is a thief.

Lu Chengqi does not deny that there are loyal and courageous people among the water thieves, and there are also those who are forced by life to fall into the grass and become thieves. But since they have all become thieves, all excuses are false. Because it is natural for officers and soldiers to catch thieves. Not only for the sake of the good slogan, for the sake of the people, but also for the emperor's own rule.

Of course, Lu Chengqi still has his own plans. If he wants to transition from an agrarian economy to a commercial economy, he must eradicate these unstable factors in Dashun. If the thieves are not eliminated for a day, the merchants are all at risk. Although driven by profits, many timid businessmen will weigh the gains and losses, feel that the risk is too great, and they will withdraw from it. This will undoubtedly invisibly slow down the commercialization process.

Lu Chengqi is ambitious, hoping to bring the Han people into a different historical track without frequent dynastic changes in his lifetime. The development of the agrarian economy has reached its peak, and it must have ended in collapse. Because the population is growing, the land is limited, and the per capita arable land is insufficient, the contradictions will increase day by day, and eventually lead to the peasant uprising and the change of dynasty.

Business is different, it can effectively unleash the power of the economy, enough to calm the conflict. If, like the rice country in later generations, a very small number of peasants can feed the population of the whole country, and some surplus grain can be exported to foreign countries, what reason is there for commerce not to flourish?

Like it or not, that's how human development goes. From primitive societies to slave societies, to agrarian societies, and finally to commercial societies. What is the more advanced society behind, Lu Chengqi doesn't know. But what has been proven by history cannot be wrong.

But no matter what society, hierarchy still exists. Saying that everyone is equal is just a joke for you. No matter what dynasty, there are always rules. Since you can't make rules, don't work hard, and blindly complain about the unreasonable system, then you will eventually achieve nothing. (I don't dare to write it, it seems to have touched the edge of a sensitive word, so everyone will understand.) ）

Democracy is necessarily a good thing, and as long as it conforms to the system of the times, it is a good system. If it does not conform to the system of the dynasty, it is the root cause of the destruction of the country and the dynasty. Human beings are always social animals, and there must always be a leader, or a leading collective, to lead human beings to continue to progress. This is the consensus, is there no emperor, in this ancient time when the illiteracy rate was as high as ninety percent, it would be fine? I'm afraid no one thinks so......

In fact, Lu Chengqi felt that the most pity was the Song Dynasty, because of congenital deficiencies and his own governance mistakes, the Song Dynasty, which should have progressed to a commercial society, was wiped out by a backward and barbaric nation. As long as there is a person with a foresight who points out a path to the rulers of the Song Dynasty in the official history, I am afraid that the Song Dynasty will not be what it is in history. And this person, preferably someone who can talk. The identity of the emperor is the best, isn't Lu Chengqi doing such a thing now?

Xining's change of law was actually insisted on by Song Shenzong himself, and it had something to do with Wang Anshi, but it was not big. Wang Anshi just proposed this new law and implemented it, if it didn't have Song Shenzong's consent, how could he have such power? After Wang Anshi's downfall, didn't Song Shenzong grit his teeth and persist for so many years?

It's a pity that Wang Anshi's path is right, but it is also idealized. Song Shenzong really thought about Song Chao, but he was too radical. Lu Chengqi just looked down on these historical celebrities with a vision that transcended history. But in practice, he still made the same mistake as Song Shenzong, which was too radical. Fortunately, Lu Chengqi's new law, compared to Song Shenzong, is just a small fight, and it is not so drastic. Otherwise, Lu Chengqi's fate would not be much better than Xining's change.

Lu Chengqi, who was reminded by Zhou Zhiruo, woke up in time and began to work steadily. But the set goals will not change, but the way to achieve them and the path to take may be a little tortuous. In short, not letting historical tragedies happen again is Lu Chengqi's biggest goal. On this basis, if you can see Dashun enter the commercial society in your lifetime, it will be enough to comfort.

After being reborn for so long, Lu Chengqi rarely goes back and thinks about the past. He was afraid that when he thought of his parents, he would cry. He didn't dare to imagine what it was like for him as an only son, his parents sent a white-haired person to a black-haired person.

For the girl who was once haunted by her dreams, now she seems to understand her choice. Everyone is making the best choice for themselves, and there is nothing wrong with that, even if it seems wrong to others.

Lu Chengqi is now making a choice that is beneficial to himself and his throne?

Standing in front of the hanging map with his hands on his back, staring at the "world map", Lu Chengqi fell into deep thought.

People always have to have a certain amount of time to meditate, look back on the past, and look forward to the future in order to move on.

The good times didn't last long, Lu Chengqi's contemplation was broken by a crisp voice, which was from a palace maid: "The queen mother drove to the ......"

Lu Chengqi came back from his contemplation and looked up at the time, as if it was past noon, but he still hadn't eaten. It seems that this is the wife who has come to check the post, what excuse can I have for prevaricating this time? It's too clumsy to use the busy state as an excuse every time.

Before she could think of the wording, Zhou Zhiruo arrived before she could speak: "Your Majesty, it seems that you have forgotten everything the concubine said!" (To be continued.) )
