"I wonder what the emperor thinks about the ban on martial arts?"

Gu Ming threw out a topic first.

"A ban on martial arts?"

Hearing this word, Emperor Yongping immediately frowned.

Historically, the promulgation of the ban on martial arts has a history of more than 1,000 years, and dynasties have changed, but this decree has been followed to this day and has not been changed.

At the beginning of its promulgation, the ban on martial arts was strictly enforced, and once it was discovered that people were practicing martial arts, they would be imprisoned at the slightest and beheaded at the worst.

Rao is like this, and it is still repeatedly banned.

The contradictions and conflicts between the court and the rivers and lakes also arose because of this.

With the passage of time, the ban on the armed forces has become almost a dead letter......

Emperor Yongping knew this. It's just that he doesn't quite understand what Gu Ming meant by suddenly mentioning the ban on martial arts.

"Your Majesty, the original intention of the previous dynasty to promulgate the ban on force was to prevent the people from violating the ban by force.

However, this order has proven to do more harm than good......"

Emperor Yongping couldn't help but ask, "Why?" ”

"As the so-called blockage, it is better to be sparse.

More than 1,000 years have passed since the promulgation of the ban on arms, and the benefits have been brought ...... I'm afraid it's very small, but it has led to the confrontation between the imperial court and the rivers and lakes......"

"Wait, Aiqing, do you mean ...... Proposed lifting of the ban on arms? ”

"Yes!"

"However, once the ban on martial arts is lifted, those people have force, and once they are ready to move, won't the imperial court be very passive?"

This is also the reason why the ban on arms was promulgated in the first place, that is, for fear that the people would rebel.

"Your Majesty, in fact, for the vast majority of the people, whether there is a ban on martial arts has almost no impact on them.

After all, it is not an easy task to practice martial arts, in addition to requiring a certain amount of talent, you also need to have a certain economic foundation......"

"In that case, what is the point of lifting the ban on arms?"

"Your Majesty, the stability and prosperity of a country is inseparable from the rule of culture and martial arts.

No strong force is not enough to deter Xiaoxiao.

Over the years, why did the northern nomadic tribes and the countries of the Western Regions dare to invade the Central Plains repeatedly?

That's because it didn't hurt them, it didn't make them afraid enough......

As far as the minister knows, a small group of enemy troops, even a few dozen people, can run through and plunder one village after another......

The reason for this is that most of the people are weak and timid, and they can't have a trace of resistance when they see their homes destroyed. ”

"This ......"

Hearing this, Emperor Yongping couldn't help frowning.

Although these words made his heart a little uncomfortable, he had to admit that this was indeed true.

Last year, for example, a tribe in the north dispatched more than 100 horsemen, and even drove straight into more than 100 miles, not counting burning, killing and looting, and finally broke through a small border city......

With only a hundred horsemen, can you break through a city?

The fact is that the officials responsible for guarding the city actually abandoned the city and fled......

This is simply an indelible shame!

The point is that the other party looted the city, killed many people in the city, and finally set a fire.

By the time a large number of officers and soldiers rushed to encircle and suppress them, they had already returned with a full load......

"Your Majesty, with all due respect, in fact, before the promulgation of the ban on martial arts, the folk customs at that time were relatively strong.

Most of the people are bloody and dare to grab weapons to confront the enemy.

But now...... Many people lack blood, and a few bandits carrying knives can scare the people of a village into obedience......

Perhaps the imperial court thinks that this is a good thing, the people are honest, timid, conducive to management, and the imperial court saves worry and effort.

However, the foundation of a country is precisely these people.

They are water, and the court is a boat. Boat, of course, hope that the wind and waves will be calm and smooth.

But for a long time, once there was a little wind and waves, there was no boat that experienced strong winds and waves...... I'm afraid it's going to be hard to maintain balance. ”

These words made Emperor Yongping speechless for a long time, frowning and pondering.

He naturally understood the meaning of Gu Ming's words, but this matter was not trivial...... I'm afraid it will set off huge waves.

Of course, from the bottom of his heart, Emperor Yongping also felt that what Gu Ming said made some sense.

The people are the foundation of the country.

If the people of a country lose their blood and become a pool of stagnant water, then a country will probably lose its vitality.

"Your Majesty, the lifting of the ban on martial arts is actually a shackle on the psychology of the people.

Although the vast majority of people do not have the conditions to practice martial arts, they can still practice a few moves at will to strengthen their bodies in their spare time.

At the same time, the emperor can increase the number of martial arts competitions and select a large number of talented and potential talents for training.

When the conditions are ripe, we can start to form a special operations force......"

"Special operations forces?"

Although this word is the first time Emperor Pingle has heard it, the literal meaning is very easy to understand: special operations forces.

"Yes, the role of the special operations unit is equivalent to a sharp knife, and there is no need to use a large number of troops to engage the enemy head-on, but to sneak in and penetrate directly into the heart of the enemy......"

Emperor Yongping couldn't help but ask: "What does Aiqing mean is that it is similar to the Great Qin Iron Cavalry back then?" ”

"Hmm...... It should be said that the role of the Great Qin Iron Cavalry is much greater. ”

"Great, Aiqing, you can tell me well......"

"Hmm!"

Gu Ming nodded, and began to combine the concept of special forces in his previous life, and integrate the actual situation of the current world, and explain it to Emperor Yongping in detail.

Although Gu Ming is not a military fan, he still knows some basic things, and he can be regarded as the head of the Tao, and Emperor Yongping is excited when he hears it.

For a long time, whether it was the Great Yan Dynasty or the previous dynasty, once a war started, it almost always relied on a large number of troops to win.

Of course, this is also a big advantage, after all, the Central Plains region is rich in products and has a large number of people, which is also the reason why many aliens are blushing, and they want to invade the Central Plains at any cost.

When Gu Ming was almost finished, Emperor Yongping couldn't help but say: "Aiqing, I have written down what you said, and I will think about it after I come down......

After all, this is not a trivial matter, it is a matter of Jiangshan Sheji, and as the Son of Heaven, he naturally has to consider it carefully.

"Okay, emperor, if there is nothing to do, the minister will retire."

"Well, the amount of information Aiqing said today is too much, I have to digest it carefully...... By the way, Aiqing, wait a minute, I wrote you an edict. ”

……

The lights are on.

On the bank of the Qinhuai River, cherish the spring building, such as Lingfang.

Yingge Yan language, rouge intoxicating.

Two men who were about twenty years old, dressed in fancy clothes, walked over with a smile and a smile surrounded by several entourages.

"Yo, Fei Gongzi, Zhang Gongzi, please inside, please ...... inside"

The old mother stepped forward with a smile on her face.

Although Xichun Building is not something that ordinary people can enter, after all, it belongs to the Department of Education.

But Fei Gongzi and Zhang Gongzi are not ordinary people, Fei Gongzi's name Fei Wu is the youngest son of Fei You, the secretary of the ministry.

Zhang Gongzi is not small, his big name is Zhang Xun, but he is the nephew of Princess Ruyang, and he can be regarded as a relative of the emperor.

"Hmm!"

Fei Wu answered in his nostrils, and strode with Zhang Xun on the pedal of the painting boat.

"Old bustard, go, call the girl to come down and drink with my son and Zhang Gongzi."

"This ......" the old mother looked embarrassed: "Fei Gongzi, this ...... Rules of the main ship......"

In fact, Fei Wu knew the rules of Rulingfang, he had come three times to see Liu Ruling, but unfortunately he returned in vain.

Having fun with Zhang Xun today, I inadvertently mentioned Liu Ruling, but this Zhang Xun was not convinced, saying that he would see Liu Ruling no matter what.

This guy is pampered and arrogant, because Princess Ruyang has no children under her knees, so she has always regarded Zhang Xun as her own son.

In this way, Zhang Xun is even more arrogant, and he regards himself as a little prince.

"What's breaking the rules? It's just the daughter of a criminal officer, and you dare to take a posture in front of your son? ”

Zhang Xun was furious in his heart, and scolded the old mother on the spot.

"Zhang Gongzi is angry, otherwise, how about the old body go to Miss Ruling to discuss, and then reply to the two sons?"

"Go!"

"Yes, yes, the old body is going to ...... Come to people, good students entertain Zhang Gongzi and Fei Gongzi. ”

"Yes!"

The maid ring on the boat hurriedly responded.

Let's say that the old mother went up to the third floor and came to Liu Ruling's room.

"How's that to be? The two gentlemen downstairs want to see you. ”

Liu Ruling said lightly: "Mother Yu, let them come according to the rules, and see you when you can pass the pass of your daughter." ”

"But...... These two guys have a bit of a special identity, one is the son of the official Shangshu, and the other is the nephew of Princess Ruyang, and they really can't be messed with by their old clothes......"

"Yu's mother, there are many dignitaries and nobles who come to us, don't everyone have to be special? What is the use of the rules of the painting boat? ”

"That's the reason, if those who are officials come, it's better to say, after all, you have to take care of face. I'm afraid of these people, they can do anything when their brains are hot, but we can't do anything with them. ”

"Why can't you do it? Aren't there officials from the Ministry of Etiquette nearby? They can be notified to deal with it. ”

The old mother smiled bitterly: "As ordered, how many officials are in charge of our Sect Division?" Don't talk about them, even if the Ministry of Rites is here, they will more or less give those two gentlemen three points of face.

Or you make an exception and go down and have a few drinks with them. At least in the halls, they won't do anything to you, will they?

If you let them break into your room, it's hard to say......"

"Yu's mother, it's not that my daughter doesn't want to make an exception, if she makes an exception this time, then next time another son-in-law comes, how will you deal with it?

There are many sons and brothers in this capital, and once the news spreads, I am afraid it will be difficult to end. ”

"This ......"

After Liu Ruling said this, the old mother also felt quite reasonable.

This time I made an exception, and as soon as the news spread, I am afraid that many sons and sons will come when they hear the news...... When the time comes, I am afraid that this rule will really exist in name only.

Thinking about it, Yu's mother couldn't help sighing: "That's it, the old body will drag them first, and then ......."

After speaking, the old mother came to the second floor and commanded a few words at a maid, ordering her to hurry up and find the officials of the Teaching Department.

Then he summoned the two maids in the workshop to come to the hall together.

"What about Miss Ruling? When does it take time to get down? ”

As soon as he saw his mother going downstairs, Fei Wu raised his voice and asked.

"Fei Gongzi, don't worry......"

The old mother led the two maids and walked over with a smile on their faces.

"If the girl's body is a little uncomfortable, it is better to let Chunlan and Xia He have a few drinks with the two sons......

"Fei Gongzi~"

"Zhang Gongzi~"

Chunlan and Xia He cooperated and walked to Fei Wu and Zhang Xun to be coquettish......

This kind of scene can be regarded as a norm for them, after all, there are often people who want to see Liu Ruling.

At this time, they have to try their best to coax the guests to be happy, strive to coax them comfortably, and go away with their hands on the wall......

Who knows, the coquettish moves are not good today.

Especially Zhang Xun, who had already boasted about Haikou before, said that he would let Liu Ruling accompany him obediently no matter what, but now that he can't see anyone, he naturally feels embarrassed.

"Go and go, don't play tricks here, my son must see Miss Ruling today! Otherwise, Hugh blames Ben Gongzi for going crazy! ”

"Childe ......"

"Get out!"

Zhang Xun was furious, raised his hand and slapped him.

This slap is quite heavy, where can the delicate Xia He afford it? He was slapped and fell to the ground, splashing blood from his mouth and nose......
