Chapter 503: The Boss (4)

Zheng Lang looked at the three people around him.

No one really paid attention, but the lecture that had been interrupted for several years resumed again, and in a sense it was the first time.

How important is the first time, I don't believe in asking my sisters, who is the most important person in their hearts about a certain aspect of memory? A lover, a husband, or someone who breaks melons for them.

If it develops normally, Ding Du will soon enter the two mansions, with Zeng Gongliang, Wang Zhu is a little sad, he made a mistake of principle, the god of the concert will invite some tricks to perform, he suddenly has a spring in the old tree, fancy a certain sister, sit next to her and play family with her, was targeted by the imperial history to participate in a book, and then the limelight passed, nephew Wang Yaochen entered the two mansions again, because of avoiding suspicion, so he did not ascend the phase in his life, but also won the trust of Zhao Zhen.

And including myself, these people are not too conservative people, but they all have one characteristic, they act more steadily, have a pure personality, and there is no one who is aggressive......

Put aside some random thoughts in your heart, make humility, and have nothing to do with your position, even if you can talk about your own knowledge, people are twice as old as you, so you have to be humble.

Zhao Zhen glanced at it, and his heart was more satisfied.

Gentleness, general knowledge, and retreat are Zhao Zhen's evaluation of Zheng Lang at this time.

Zhao Zhen has Zhao Zhen's thoughts about the new policy, there are many problems in the country, and he also suspects in his heart that Lu Yijian is taking small steps, not as the gentlemen said, thinking that Lu Yijian is treacherous and meritorious, but he has not done better.

Governing the country is like a sentence that Zheng Lang taught to students in the past, just like walking, Zhengzhou to the capital, you can cross the Yellow River from Mengzhou to the capital, you can go from Caizhou to the capital from the south, the best way is to walk in a straight line, but who can find this straight line?

Detours are inevitable. He was ready to take a detour, so he changed the way, Lu Yijian strolled, and Fan Zhongyan ran quickly. Let's go for a run this time. The New Deal has encountered many difficulties, but in the past six months, he has been supporting, including tacitly ignoring their party's similarities.

But Ouyang Xiu, Yin Zhu and others. It made him suspicious. No matter which path you take, or how you go about it, you have to move forward with the country. What is the greatest treasure in the world? Country! This reminded him of Zheng Lang's words, the carving technique is not refined, I carve a bamboo tube, and it is worthless if the carving is broken, but dare not move the knife on the beautiful jade casually. How does the jade compare to the treasure of the country? However, these people, treat this treasure as a ball of mud, you mold Cheng Zhijie, I am not satisfied, knead it into mud again, I will shape Li Shimin again, and then the third person will appear and shape Li Jing. Angry, frivolous, and impetuous!

Zhao Zhen had the idea of stopping in his heart.

Come to think of it. looked at Zheng Lang again.

Since the New Deal, Zheng Lang has not been allowed to come forward, this is protection. At this time, Zheng Lang came forward, and his political views were disagreeable, and he would be torn up and eaten by this group of people.

There are two other reasons, even Zheng Lang doesn't know.

One is the difficulty of reconciling the mean. How difficult it is, Utata can see it. I made so many preparations, let myself make an edict, and I made an edict myself. But he didn't stop, and then he let himself issue a third edict, what for, forgiveness. These large households were given a chance to mend their ways, and the fields that had been confiscated by the edict were handed over to the poor households and tenant farmers, but now this order is withdrawn and half of the cultivated land is returned to these powerful people. However, it is not a full refund, and a full refund will lose its warning effect.

Let Guo and Sun stop again. Give these heroes ten days again and report to Solida. Only then did he continue to check the remaining hidden fields. The exterior was isolated, and the interior returned half of the cultivated land, and the noise finally subsided. Many large households reported the remaining hidden fields, and this number is also questionable, and it is certainly much better than the original. In the second inventory, only more than 5,000 hectares of hidden fields were actually found. The effect is remarkable, Shouzhou is the largest state in Huainan Road, equivalent to the total area of the four states of Luzhou, Haozhou, Hezhou and Wuwei Army, but there are only 30,000 hectares of cultivated land in the household department. In this inventory, the cultivated land has skyrocketed to nearly 150,000 hectares. …,

The difference is so big, how can Ouyang Xiu not jump, but let Zheng Lang hold it down, take advantage of the situation and issue an edict to use this matter as a warning, and let the state capitals register the cultivated land for the county government, and if it is greatly reduced again, continue to check the states and counties. Forget it this year, after all, the edict said that warning is the main thing, and punishment is secondary. The king has no jokes, the king has to be counted when he speaks, and the edict is powerful, and Ouyang Xiu has no words.

How many times have you used the ways of benevolence, grace, forgiveness, and balance between courtesy and soldier?

The effect is some, the hornet's nest is poked, and although the stabber is stared at a few small packets, the problem is not serious. Zhao Zhen also admits that Zheng Lang is very capable, but who can play this profound middle-of-the-road adjustment and balance technique?

The second is to keep pace with the times, Zheng Lang implicitly said in the book, the policy implemented ten years ago, but ten years later the country is definitely not like that, just like water conservancy, repaired and started to use, but in the middle of the maintenance every few years, otherwise the water conservancy will be scrapped, not only the implementation of the policy to continue to adjust, but also to adjust the previous policy.

It seems to be very reasonable, but Zhao Zhen keenly thought that according to this theory, it is necessary to adjust the ancestral family law. This made him more or less worried.

Guessed accurately!

But Zheng Lang won't say it.

However, compared with the gentlemen, Zhao Zhen can see many of Zheng Lang's strengths, prudence and caution about the country, which is like the ruler who regards the country as the biggest treasure, has wisdom, long-term vision, and is unparalleled in the world.

In a few years, thinking of this, he said: "Zhu Qing speaks, Zeng Qing, you don't have to be humble, it's up to you to tell Mao's poems for me." ”

Let's talk about them one by one.

When it was Zheng Lang's turn, Zhao Zhen asked a question: "Zheng Qing, you said that the family is born and Confucianism is the entry into the WTO, but why do you put politics in the second place and learning in the first place?" ”

"Your Majesty, politics is the foundation of the country, and without a good political environment, the country is in turmoil, the people are not able to make a living, and there is no environment for even learning. However, if you want to have good politics, you must find out through continuous study. Ranked first because of this. This is true not only of the chapters, but also of many of them. The most obvious example is the Book of Changes practiced by the Master, at the beginning of the birth of Tianyang, Yang is Yin, so Qiankun, Yang and Yin meet, so there is Tun, all things brew, so there is Meng. The soul is developed, so there is a need, and the wisdom is not opened, and the development is confused. So there was a lawsuit, a difficult problem to figure out, and another expedition, so there was a division, the sacrifice of the division, so there were small animals, just like I am now. For the time being, take a retreat, and its righteousness is also auspicious. ”

This theory is not unnovel, and Wang Dingzeng and the three of them were stunned.

"The Book of Changes was cultivated by the Master, and it was repeatedly scrutinized, and it was the ranking of saints, which was in line with heavenly principles. Although the Analects were the words of the master, they were mostly arranged by the disciples, and later they were burned by the Qin Dynasty. The order is chaotic. But you can't go wrong with an important location. If you learn the first sentence, learn it and learn it, isn't it fun? There are friends from afar. Exhilaration? People don't know and are not ashamed, aren't they also gentlemen? The first is to learn and learn from time to time, and the way of learning requires frequent review, scrutiny, and reflection in order to understand more of the true taste. ”

"Yes, it was also mentioned later that I said that I have three provinces and my body, and I will learn from the past."

"This is the most important method to learn, not rote memorization, there are many, many people among my courtiers and doctors, but there are a few people who can be called real Confucians. Without it, ignoring the intention of Master's words is not only to review, but to familiarize yourself with and understand them, otherwise where Master's words are placed, they can only be repeatedly misinterpreted by future generations. It can even be misinterpreted by later generations as the righteousness of the Mo family. And then to the second sentence, there are friends from afar, are you happy? If you want your ideals to be realized, you can't be a hermit, Sima Qian put Boyi in the first place, his thought is Huang Lao's thought, the real Confucianism disdain, if you want to be in government, you must be gentlemen and respond to each other, so that the right path can be upheld. But a gentleman has great friends, and there are friends but no party, so the next thing is that people don't know and are not ashamed, and they are not gentlemen? I don't know, I don't understand, I don't approve, I can't get angry, I can't use force or articles, or public opinion can force others to join me, I can only use morality to influence those who don't agree. Not only to influence others, but also to absorb the strengths of others, so the master said, three people together, there must be my teacher, keep learning the strengths of others, improve yourself, this is the way of a gentleman. Therefore, the master and the student put this sentence in the first place, so as not to make mistakes in future generations. ”…,

(Will writing like this scare away more readers, seeing Tang bricks, and thinking of the time when I wrote geniuses in the past, I am asking for my own hardship)

In this way, we can also understand why the first sentence of politics is for politics and morality, such as Beichen, where the stars arch over it. Morality is the foundation of governing the country, and criminal law is only a broken star that guards it, and as Zheng Lang said, the master does not object to the use of criminal law, but it is only moderation, and benevolence is the core and the fundamental. But in turn, it can be explained that in addition to the North Star of morality, there are many other stars, which cannot be said at once, only one North Star can be left in the night sky, and other stars also have their meaning of existence. The North Star is the main star, supplemented by many other stars, which is not only the complexity of the world, but also the main and secondary of the world.

"Okay," Zhao Zhen muttered.

But the disaster did not end, and the drought shifted from the north to Jiangzhun in the spring of that year.

The Jianghuai water system is well developed, especially the newly cultivated large number of polders, regardless of whether you are dry or not, the doumen will be pulled, the river water will roll in, and the grain will still be planted. However, there are still many mountains and hills. Zheng Lang can't say it, it's weird to say it, he can see through the heavens, and Zhao Zhen can't tolerate such a demon.

However, he had a way.

Now he is participating in political affairs, and he has a lot of real power in his hands, under the pretext of preventing disasters, he will withhold all the millions of dividends of the New Year's Safety Prison, and the divisions are waiting for money, and it is not okay to ask for money, in case of a disaster, who of you can afford this responsibility?

No one dared to say anything.

Last year, there was a bumper harvest in Jianghuai, especially in the polder area, and some of this grain was transported to the north by the state by taxes or money and silk. Most of them went into the granaries of various merchants' houses, bought grain at harvest time, sold grain when they were not harvested, and wine and so on, normal means of making profits.

There is food, but it is hoarded in the hands of these big businessmen, and once the disaster comes, what will the price of food look like? As a result, there will be Ouyang Xiu's history written in the fold, and the minister Fushi saw that he was close to the inner treasury and gave Shaanxi to save the hungry people. It is said that south of the river and Huai, there is a great drought this spring, and there are places where wells and springs are exhausted, cattle and livestock are dead, and chickens and dogs do not exist...... After Wang Lun's ravaging last year, the people were uneasy to make a living, and the thieves were extinguished, and the sores did not recover, and then the locusts were flying, from autumn to spring, and there was a drought at three o'clock......

The drought in Jianghuai this time is not as serious as Ouyang Xiu's writing, but if we don't take precautions, many bad things will happen.

With this money, when the drought is not serious, we will continue to buy grain, put it in the granaries of various prefectures and counties, and transport it to the north when the spring water rises. I'm not here to prevent Jianghuai, but to prevent the north, so as not to make people feel strange. Zheng Lang was even afraid of food shortage, so he issued a ban on alcohol to reduce the amount of alcohol produced by some wine supervisors. As a result, the price of grain has soared, the price of wine has also soared, and the income of the imperial court has also decreased.

After making a fuss, February began to end, March was coming, the drought in Jianghuai was serious, Zhongshu Province discussed with the officials of the three divisions, and once again implemented the method of cash-for-work in Jiangzhun on the grain warehouses of various prefectures and counties in Jianghuai. Although it caused a lot of controversy, the severity of the drought has decreased indefinitely.

This fine-tuning has enabled the country to develop healthier.

It is done secretly, no one pays attention, and Zheng Lang is also afraid of people's attention. The imperial court only sent chamberlains to Jianghuai to pray for rain.

The situation in the country is gradually improving, and some people are more energetic.

A Shuiluo City, continue to quarrel, the more noisy the more fierce, some of the gentlemen's party speak for Han Qi, some speak for Fan Zhongyan, and some people are inexplicable, such as Ouyang Xiu, Zhao Zhen had to send the deputy envoy of salt and iron Yu Zhouxun, the palace envoy Zhou Weide, and the transfer envoy Cheng Kan to inquire about the interests of the water conservancy city.

The three lieutenant envoys came to Weizhou, and at this time Liu Hu and Dong Shilian were locked up in prison, and Yu Zhou inquired and said: "Yin Zhizhou, let them out first." ”

Otherwise, how can you ask?

The person was released, Liu Hu was a military general, Yin Zhu was not polite, just about the incident caused by this kid, he wore a forty-pound shackle, and he almost couldn't even recognize his parents, and he couldn't look like a human being. Dong Shilian is a civil servant, a little better, and he was also punished by the criminal law, when he saw Qin Cha, he was so angry that his eyes were in his eyes, he lifted his clothes, and said to Yu Zhouxun: "Deputy Envoy Yu, you see, the court can't punish the sergeant, I am a civil minister, but you look at the scar of my torture, who gave Yin Zhu such a bold son?" ”

Yu Zhou inquired about that dare to meddle in the dispute between Han Fan and the mud.

Dong Shilian was not convinced, so he wrote a letter and told him about Shuiluocheng, but not only Shuiluocheng, but also said two things, the first thing is good Shuichuan. After the failure of Haoshuichuan, Han Qi has been putting the blame on Ren Fu, but Your Majesty, you don't know, the water here is very deep. In fact, before the war, Han Qi and Yin Su came to inspect Haoshuichuan, which was the main battlefield selected by Han Qi.

Ren Fu sacrificed his life for the country and died tragically on the battlefield, Han Qi did not regret it, but poured dirty water on him.

Once the case is overturned......

And the second one. (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to (.) to vote for recommendation, monthly pass, your support is my biggest motivation. )
