Wang Jixun's cannibalism quickly spread in the capital, but no one dared to talk about the cause of Mrs. Hua Rui's death, whether he knew it or not.

But her death had a remarkable effect, not only did no one dare to talk about Mrs. Hua Rui's death, but few people even dared to talk about the rights and wrongs of Zhao Kuangyi.

As a result, Zhao Kuangyi's remediation of the East Water Gate became very smooth.

He asked Song Jiu, Song Jiu said I don't want to take over, in fact, except for Song Jiu, no one has the ability to take over, so there is only one way to let it recover naturally, but one thing must be done before, plant willows and dismantle the shed.

But it's not that simple to execute, what about the houses by the Zhiliu River? Tear down the straw shed, what will happen to those servants?

Spring is getting deeper, Zhao Kuangyi began to rectify, not only planting willows, but also building a road by the river, Song Jiu said, Zhao Kuangyi can still not understand Song Jiu's meaning, in fact, Song Jiu's idea is very simple, so that the environment of Hebei becomes beautiful, naturally there will be tourists to go, and the vitality will be restored. But this time, more houses will be demolished. Zhao Kuangyi sent some staff members to check, except for some houses that had to be preserved for it to keep, the roads were bypassed, and the rest were written with big characters. It must be demolished within 15 days, otherwise the government will send officials to forcibly demolish it.

If you dismantle it yourself, you can still get some bricks and wood, and when the officers and soldiers come, they can't get anything.

And then there's the straw huts.

The deed shares of the Yanai fell, and many of the Yanai withdrew or moved to the Hezhou side, but there were still some Yanai who stuck to their posts, mainly workshops, which could still make some small profits, and there were workshops with craftsmen and servants. However, the treatment was slightly better than before, and no one dared to abuse the servants excessively. However, now these straw huts are also written one by one. Where the servants live, find a way to go by themselves. It is your ability to keep it, and it is your inability to keep it, but these simple straw huts must also be demolished within half a month.

Then cooperate with Su Xiao to integrate the ghost store.

It doesn't matter if the store is empty, but it must be valued according to the construction cost, and then the city tax will be levied, and the previous tax will not be counted, but the tax of the previous year must be paid, and the tax of the year of this year must also be paid. The city tax rate is not high, but one is taxed and the other is not taxed. Poles apart. Use this to force the shopkeeper to sell the empty store at a super low price, and tear down the ones who can't sell them, saving the empty houses from being uninhabited at night and gloomy.

If it was changed before, this would have stabbed a small hornet's nest, but this time the implementation of Kaifeng Mansion was very smooth.

Zhao Kuangyi was renovating Hebei, Zhao Kuangyin was studying in the palace, and when he read the paragraph of Shangshu Yaodian, he said with emotion: "When Yaoshun was in time." The four murderous sins, only from the casting, why is the modern constitutional network so dense? ”

Lu Duosun said: "Your Majesty has been regarded as a benevolent monarch, since the opening of the treasure. If you are not a big evildoer, you will borrow more money to die, since the second year of Kaibao. There were almost four or five thousand people who were guilty of capital crimes. ”

Zhao Kuangyin was slightly complacent, but frowned for a while. asked: "It is rumored that Song Jiu has known Huizhou for two years and has not sentenced a death row prisoner?" ”

"Your Majesty. This son doesn't like to kill, it's a small state, and the time is short, even if he is not sentenced to death row, it's quite normal. ”

Zhao Kuangyin was not confused by Lu Duoxun's words, what are you kidding, Huizhou can still be regarded as a small state? With tens of thousands of households and hundreds of thousands of people, it is the fourth most populous state in Quang Nam. It was not easy to come to power for two years without executing a single prisoner. He said, "Lu Qing, you check and confirm that there is such a thing." ”

Lu Duosun was not too repulsed, so he went down to investigate, and sure enough, there was indeed such a thing. This made Zhao Kuangyin interested. Why are the pavilion officials expensive here, and people in the capital may not attract the attention of the emperor, only if the emperor pays attention, will he make a difference.

Zhao Kuangyin drank soju all day long, and he could forget Song Jiu's drinking.

Song Jiu brought it to the palace, and Zhao Kuangyin didn't ask about the death row prisoner, but asked Wheat: "Song Jiu, how is that piece of wheat growing?" ”

"Under His Majesty, the growth is good."

"When it's time to harvest, I must go and see it for myself."

"Your Majesty, that kind of phosphate fertilizer can not be produced, so no matter how good the yield is, it can not be counted, and only seeds are taken, even after the seeds are promoted, they may not be able to adapt, and they may degrade rapidly." Song Jiu said calmly, that is, if you are not productive, you will not have to worry about it, and if you are not productive, you will not be happy.

"No, I'm still going to see it."

Song Jiu didn't make a sound this time, just watch it, maybe he will give Zhao Kuangyin a surprise when the time comes, but he won't surprise himself, no matter how productive he is, he will definitely not be able to achieve his goal.

Zhao Kuangyin asked again: "Song Jiu, have you ever sentenced you to death row in Huizhou?" ”

Song Jiu carefully recalled that in Guangnan, he wanted to govern Huizhou, and he also had to take care of the entire Lingnan, he really didn't think about it, and thought about it for a long time and said: "Probably not." ”

In addition to Zhao Kuangyin in the palace, there are several other important ministers, Song Jiu killed no one is a trivial matter, a state prison, but through some of his practices to decide whether the world is lenient or severe, so several prime ministers and related important ministers are all invited to sit in the palace.

Song Jiu said: "Why does Your Majesty care about this matter? ”

Zhao Kuangyin said: "I watched Yaodian a few days ago, and only exiled the four murderers, and I felt that today's criminal law is strict, and I want to enforce the lenient sentence, so I summoned you to the palace to ask." ”

As soon as he said Song Jiu, he understood, Zhao Kuangyin, in general, was very lenient, especially after Tianbao, he never got any clan punishment. This may be influenced by Buddhism, Zhao Kuangyin may not believe in Buddhism at the beginning, but often go to Xiangguo Temple, after repeated brainwashing by the great monks, it turns out that Zhao Kuangyin believes it is not easy to say, but now he must believe it.

Song Jiu hesitated and said: "I really didn't pay much attention to whether Weichen was sentenced to death row in Huizhou, but that was a special case, Liu Gang's tyranny, Huizhou was on the edge of Guangzhou, and he suffered greatly, Weichen released the prisoners and won some fame, and the people looked forward to it, and Weichen also did some benevolent government, so there are not many people who committed great evil, but now let Weichen go to Huizhou, it is no longer difficult to do it." ”

This is the truth, but Song Jiu did not stop, and continued: "As for whether to kill or not, Weichen thinks that killing cannot be said to be wrong, and not killing cannot be said to be right. Perhaps Wechen was not sentenced to death row in Huizhou, but Wechen had suggested that General Pan Yiner build the roads in front of the cottages so that he could be governed, which led to a more serious rebellion. In fact, it is tantamount to murder in disguise. Besides, Buddhism doesn't like to kill. However, several ships of Weichen had just returned from the west, and they had talked about Tianzhu. Tianzhu has the beauty of the Ganges. With gold and silver, countless pearls and emeralds, it is a first-class treasure Tianhua place. But except for a few people, most of the people in these large and small Buddhist countries live a very miserable life, almost similar to the puppet Southern Han under the tyranny. The reasons for this are, first, the ugly caste system, which cannot unite people, and second, the lack of a perfect system. What is the system, whether it is the benevolence of Confucianism and Buddha. It is still the benevolence of the West, which is actually the core of loving the people, and then mixed with the laws of the Legalists as the auxiliary to deter, and the combination of grace and power, so that the country can be stable for a long time. There is no Confucianism in the West, and some countries are as powerful as our dynasty, and they have been standing longer than the Tang Dynasty. ”

When Song Jiu said this, his voice suddenly changed: "It's like eating people, the former Qin Yao Chang ate people, but he loves the people." Although he is a villain, he is a real villain, and eating people is just eating dead corpses, so he can establish a country. Zhang Xunxu is far away from the cannibalism of Juzhou City, and he is surrounded by hundreds of rebels. They used their blood to build the Great Wall of flesh and blood for tens of millions of people in Jianghuai, and became martyrs because of the lack of food. However, the likes of Huangchao and Zhu Yi cannibalize. The division of the corpses of the five horses is not enough to destroy its evil. ”

The beginning of that passage was said in a good way, this turn. Zhao Kuangyin's face changed dramatically.

Zhao Kuangyi sat on the side, and he couldn't wait to go up and kick Song Jiu a few times.

However, Song Jiu didn't say much in the end, and the point was over. turned back again: "Tang Taizong once released dozens of death row prisoners, forgave them to go home for reunion, none of the prisoners escaped, and then loaned them to death, do you believe Your Majesty?" If His Majesty secretly instructed the officials to lend him to death row prisoners, Weichen would also guarantee that a miracle would happen in our dynasty. But in that case, what do the victims' families think? Yao Shun only exiled the four murderers, one is that he couldn't believe it all in ancient times, it was too far away. Second, the people were uncivilized and ignorant at that time. If we turn back the clock now, it is a serious regression. Therefore, we cannot compare the things of antiquity with our time. As for whether to kill or not to kill, the ministers think that they can't seek mercy without killing people, and if there is no law to guard against it, the people will be sluggish, and some lawbreakers will act recklessly. We should not kill people excessively for the sake of deterrence, for if we kill too much, we will be unjustly killed, and the people will complain about it. It is permissible to kill, but not to kill a person who should not be killed, and not to kill, but not to kill a person who should be killed. The minister broke some cases in Huizhou, but if a prisoner should be killed, the minister would not pardon him for the sake of his reputation. But if there is no person to kill, the minister will not deliberately kill him to avoid suspicion. This is Wechen's idea. ”

If there was no paragraph about eating human flesh, Song Jiu's exposition would have been recorded in the annals of history even after it appeared in this era.

However, with human flesh, Zhao Kuangyin was just silent.

……

Song Jiu of Hezhou gradually let go, except for some vacant land in the north and south, the construction was basically completed, if it were not for the fact that a lot of money was needed for research, Song Jiu wanted to hand it over to the imperial court now.

But Song Jiu did not let go of the sea.

When it comes to dividends, it is only two internal dividends.

Pan Weide's brothers also don't check the accounts, Song Jiu says as much as he wants, of course, Song Jiu will not embezzle the income of the Pan family. After dividing the accounts, Pan Weide sighed: "How can this money be used?" ”

"Isn't it easy to use, or we will join forces with the two of us in the future to run a small island."

"The island."

"It's just running a small island in the South China Sea."

"Like a bearded guest?" Pan Wei is right.

"The bearded guest is just a legend, the Tang Dynasty has recorded that the volcanic country of five thousand miles east of the country of Japo (the country of Java is Java, there are also active volcanoes, and it is not known where it is five thousand miles to the east, whether it is Oceania, or it is miscontained in the general code), which is already the depths of the islands of the South China Sea. Why is there no trace of the founding capital of the bearded guest? ”

Song Jiu was moved by feelings.

The flaws are not hidden, Zhao Kuangyin should be considered a Ming Jun, otherwise he would not dare to mention human flesh on the side. However, even Zhao Kuangyin also did not do a good job in many places. This can't be blamed on Zhao Kuangyin, the system is coming step by step. Even if Song Jiu has the ability to speed up science and technology for five or six hundred years, and the system can't keep up, he is still worried about this country. Either you don't want to be descendants, and thinking about future generations is not to give them money, but to give them a safe place.

The two families have more and more money, more and more ships, and if they bring enough weapons and the people on board gradually adapt to the hot weather in the South China Sea, then it will be a total kill for those small countries. Now there are few people, and immigration is not successful, but this time will be very fast, at most 30 years, and the population of the country will follow.

Song Jiu may be joking, or he may be serious.

However, the Pan Weide brothers thought he was joking.

Song Jiu didn't talk much and asked, "How is the south?" ”

"Stopped."

"Stop?" Song Jiu was shocked. He followed Pan Mei's southern expedition, and now he understands a little, Cao Bin's army went east, skipping the 100,000 Tang army at Hukou, similar in nature to Pan Mei, Pan Mei skipped Pan Chongche's 50,000 Han army, and entered Lianzhou Shaozhou, the Southern Han may have organized 100,000 troops in time to meet it, but it was a rabble, and the strongest army was still in the hands of Pan Chongche. This is the decapitation military operation. Therefore, Cao Bin's trip was fast, Jinling was in danger, and the 100,000 Tang troops at Hukou had no morale, so they could only surrender. Once a protracted war is fought and 100,000 Tang troops are mobilized to help, the price of Pingnan Tang will inevitably be heavy.

In fact, there was a big problem in the south, but even Zhao Kuangyin didn't notice it...... (To be continued......)
