Chen Xun nodded, and did not answer this, making any comments, which showed that he respected the fact that he had the right to exist, whether it was the fact that Yu Qian grasped the power of the prime minister, or the fact that Ding Yi was qualified enough to talk to him on an equal footing: "The old man has always been obedient to Rujin, which is a matter of pouring the sky, as long as Rujin opens his mouth, the old man also tries his best to help, it is the matter that Rujin promised afterwards, it is like a cloud of smoke, and the old man has never complained about Rujin for this, but there are any?" ”

What he said was that when he launched the rebellion to seize the door, Ding Yi promised to establish the constitution, promised that the first assistant would get power similar to that of the prime minister of the Han Dynasty, and the emperor would become a spiritual symbol of the country, and after a few years, this is still an unfulfilled thing. And it seems unlikely that Ding Yi will ask Yingzong to start doing this right away, although if Ding Yi is willing to unite with the scholar class, they have the strength.

"Yes." Ding Yi did not refute, when it came to this conversation, the words had lost all meaning, which was also the fundamental reason for the gradual decline of the Zongheng family in Chinese history.

"Although Qin was tyrannical, the first emperor was eloquent and strategic, and then the second generation died." Suddenly, Chen Xun changed his tone.

Ding Yi was very decisive and unceremoniously cut off his words, this way of speaking was what the scholar class in this era was accustomed to, Ding Yi didn't plan to go around with Chen Xun in such a fog, not that he couldn't, but that he had the strength to refuse to do so: "Degong, the student went to sea and returned, and then went to Shu." Exhausted, please speak up. ”

Hearing Ding Yi's words, Chen Xun did not show surprise. It seems that he had expected Ding Yi to respond like this: "It is impossible for everyone in the world to follow Rujin, can the old man hear this?" This is also the basis for Rujin to propose a constitution at that time. Whether it is a good minister or a hero, they are all available but not sought. ”

There is nothing to argue with this, Ding Yi responded very dryly: "What Degong said is true." ”

"The officials and gentry pay for the service, and if they are promoted, they are also officials."

Ding Yi smiled slightly when he heard this, did he want to say that Ding Yi had to be no exception like other official gentry? This Ding Yi never thought of exceptions, and on the way. Ding Yi had expected Chen Xun to make trouble early on, and he was ready for this kind of preparation in his heart: "Student ......"

This time, it was Chen Xun who intercepted Ding Yi's topic: "If you are promoted to the position of a very popular minister, the governor will be the governor of the two major capitals." It is also a prince of the country, and he was born in Tanhua. But Rujin himself has never lived up to his name, and he has waited for the governor who is already so thin? An has such a thin grandfather in the house? Do you have a flower exploration that doesn't go to the poetry club and sings at the literary club? ”

Didn't wait for Ding to speak. Chen Xun raised his hand and motioned for Ding Yi to listen to him first: "What Rujin said at that time is true. The priests, farmers, and industrialists have all gained, but at present, there have been many conflicts in Guangdong, and Wu Sizang is a fierce fight between the labor propaganda team and the lord, resulting in the martyrdom of the general system of Shi! ”

"Shipu national thief, there is no need to talk about it." Ding Yi suddenly interjected such a sentence categorically.

Chen Xun felt the resoluteness in Ding Yi's tone, but he didn't say anything like death to ease the atmosphere. He just said, "No matter what, it's a big mistake." The old man thought. For example, Jin is fundamentally from the outside of Shilin, from outside of colleagues, and from outside of honors. Although there are people at home, what is the difference between it and Anshi? ”

Compared with Wang Anshi with Ding Yi, it sounds very elevated, and it is also famous through the ages.

But in fact, Ding Yi can understand, Wang Anshi is unkempt, he doesn't like to wash his face and change clothes, lice on his clothes are common, and he is very famous for not knowing the taste of food, and even when he is treated, he will unconsciously take the guest's pancake crust to eat, so that the guest doesn't know what to do.

Chen Xun is saying that Ding Yi is unsociable, and it is true, except for the big mansion in Goldfish Alley, which was given to him by Wang Zhen back then, as soon as Ding had a little money, he invested it in scientific research, in the academy, in the army, and even took it to compensate those dead and disabled soldiers. Although the life is much better than that of ordinary people, but not to mention anything else, the civil officials who really go to the barracks to eat, not to mention the people who do the imperial history of the left capital, are rare even the prince of Qipin County, right?

As for the concubines in the homes of ordinary officials and eunuchs, the eight concubines sent by Wang Zhen and the palace maids sent by the Queen Mother all went to the field hospital to transfer to medical personnel.

Chen Xun continued: "If you act like this, unless all the ministers declare political envoys and come up with a 'Hou Dagou', you can fulfill Rujin's wishes." ”

This is the words of the heart, and they also point to the essence.

Hou Dagou, these three words came out of Chen Xun's mouth, which surprised Wu Quanyi on the side, and he subconsciously moved his hand to the handle of the gun. Chen Xun, who was kicked by Yu Qian to edit the book, didn't have much of a dispute, it was rare to see him get angry and angry, and Shousuke, who was born as a scholar, just smiled and said something like a bombshell. Although Ding Yi didn't expect to hide it from the world for a long time, it was impossible for Chen Xun to say that he was still like an ancient well.

The old man thought that if Jin wanted to revive the dynasty and restore the style of the Han and Tang dynasties, he should first live the life of nobles, high-ranking officials, and scholars, and then prescribe the right medicine before he could make a difference...... It is to seek medical treatment, that is, to be a peerless good doctor, and only after cutting the pulse will medicine be prescribed, and one more point and one point less are quacks. Chen Xun didn't seem panicked at all because Wu Quanyi was already holding the handle of the gun.

And he didn't dwell on Hou Dagou's point, the so-called release of goodwill, that's probably it, it shows that he doesn't know, but he doesn't want to catch this point to fight against Ding Yi.

"Why did Degong teach me?" Ding Yi asked the other party with a smile, Chen Xun opened this mouth, naturally there is a charter.

Chen Xun watched Ding Yi get up without taking a shot, which made him feel that his goal had been half achieved: "Yu Da Sima is sick, and all the ministers in the cabinet think that if you don't go into the army to deploy the affairs of the ministry first, the teacher has something to do, and the disciples serve their labor, just live plainly, when they come according to Shilin and Xungui, it will be as short as half a year, and as long as a year, if Jin has the majesty of a leader to this official, Shilin, and Xungui, then implement this matter of integrating officials and gentry, and others will also be able to attach Jiwei." ”

This acting military department is not specially set up for Ding Yi, before the old Wang Zhi was too old to take care of things, but Wang Ao also joined the Ministry of Officials to control the affairs of the ministry, and he also had two officials and scholars. Therefore, Yu Qian can't look at things, and it is not a new thing for Ding to enter the military department.

But that's not the point.

Chen Xun's meaning is that Ding Yi has to integrate into the officialdom, the circle of nobles, and the scholar class, and then establish his prestige. is not the same as Wang Anshi, although he is well-known in the world, he is incompatible with various circles. According to Chen Xun's statement, Ding Yi has to get acquainted with these circles, so it is much easier to do things like the integration of officials and gentry to pay food, and they are all mixed into the leading brother in the circle, and if he opens his mouth to do something, there will naturally be a lot less resistance.

Ding Yi shook his head with a smile and said, "No, Degong, the students are really tight-handed, and they can't afford to spend so much." ”

He was crying poor.

Chen Xun listened to Daqi: "Didn't the fleet that sent Wang Yanshan to the capital division also send a lot of gold coins minted from gold?" Isn't it the war dividend that Jin said? "A few months ago, the fleet docked at the dock in Tianjin, and truckloads of gold coins were transported to Beijing. Chen Xun was the first assistant, or he had read the account book, and the cabinet was shocked at that time, this is the tax revenue of the Ming Dynasty for more than ten years, right?

This is not an exaggeration, the Ming treasury really doesn't have much oil and water, don't mention the crazy season when it comes to the last years of the Ming Dynasty and the addition of various liao salaries. In normal time, the Wanli year is calculated, about two million taels of silver, and some say three or four million taels, which is still thanks to Zhang Juzheng's contribution after the reform.

Why? That is, the official gentry does not pay grain, not to mention, and the commercial tax is as low as 30 taxes and 1.

Behind the businessmen is the scholar class, and the commercial tax here is so low [modern personal income tax, the progressive system is implemented, and the part that exceeds the exemption amount is 105 to 4,005, which is 10 taxes and 1, 45 to 9,000, is 10 taxes and 2, and the higher it will be in the future], and the landlord class over there does not need to pay grain, how much can the treasury collect?

What's more, this normal income, how can it compare to the war dividend?

Ding nodded, and did not deny the deposit of war dividends: "There is a profit share of the war dividend, and the students have also received a few portions, and there is also some profit sharing in the workshop in Liangguang." However, if the college does not pay allowances, clothes and stationery, where can those students afford to study? And the soldiers who followed the students died for the country, and the wives and children they left behind can't be ignored, right? There are also disabled people, you can't let them bleed and cry again, right? And then on top of scientific research, if you don't advance, you will retreat, the Ming fleet will go west, and Zhuyi will bow down, is it because of moral articles? That's for the sake of the ship's guns! Without scientific research, there will be no strong ships and guns, and the lives of soldiers will be piled up, how can we win against the natives? Therefore, students really have no money, no money, and they can't run a literary poetry club; If you don't have money, you can't buy flowers; There is no money, and there is no pomp and circumstance for the national government. ”

"This is not the right way." In the face of Ding Yi's crying poverty, Chen Xunli gave such a conclusion sternly.

"Today's Shengming, do not misunderstand Rujin, but after Jin, the inheritor of the family business will definitely be like you, with the common people in mind?"

"Take 10,000 steps back and say, even if the family style does not change, if Jin must know, you and the saint, the monarch and the minister get along, it is really rare for eternity, and Encore will be renewed?" In other words, after Yingzong burped, if someone else became the emperor, if Ding Yi or Ding Yi's descendants did this, would the emperor not be suspicious?

Chen Xun's words were very real, and Ding Yi was speechless for a while.

So Ding Yi lied: "As Degong said, students know that it is right, but now they have no money." ”

It's just that Chen Xun, who had planned every link for a long time, how could he give up because of Ding Yi's tricks? (To be continued......)
