Yin Ji's "wife and concubine theory" successfully made Yin Changying laugh.

Except for her, no one dared to compare the princess with the concubines in the palace.

Once these words are spread, the ministers are only afraid that they will jump to their feet in anger, and feel that they have been humiliated - you women, you know palace fights and house fights every day, and your biggest wish in life is to find a noble husband, and the other party will spoil you wholeheartedly, and you don't know how big the world is, and you are worthy of being compared with us manly husbands?

But Yin Cheng thinks that this kind of gender fallacy is quite boring.

Some people like to struggle on their own, some people like to take shortcuts, this kind of thing does not discriminate between men and women.

Even in the world where she lives, there is no shortage of people who climb the dragon and attach the phoenix, and it is not uncommon for women who are willing to be mistresses, but it is not uncommon for men to yell "rich woman, I don't want to work hard" and put it into practice!

There are countless people who came from poor backgrounds and wanted to change their class through marriage.

First turn a woman into an appendage to a man, not even your own name, let alone property rights (unless you are a widow and can be made the head of the household). But what the widow owns is still the property of her husband's family) and an independent personality, and if she wants to live well, she can only rely on the man.

It is a very ridiculous thing to accuse them of being short-sighted and only knowing love and competing for favor.

What's more, Yin Ji looked at it coldly, in order to compete for Yin Changying's attention, the ministers had a variety of tricks, and they were not much more reckless than the harem beauties.

She didn't believe it, these men are desperately trying to climb up, and the motivation is based on great ideals such as "I want to do a great job and benefit the people".

There are only a handful of people who have great ambitions and are willing to pay for the common people.

Most people still think of primitive and simple wishes such as "I want to be a superior person, with a high position, wealth and glory, thousands of acres of fertile land at home, a group of mansions, thousands of slaves, and countless beautiful women".

Since it's all about making one's life better, there is no such thing as who is noble and who is low.

Everyone is half a catty to eight taels, and no one is better than anyone.

The reason why Yin Cheng dared to say this was because she knew that even if no one in the world could understand it, Yin Changying would definitely be able to understand her thoughts, although this stemmed from the diametrically opposite cognition of the two - she treats everyone as a person, and he treats everyone as a person.

But in a way, it's weirdly different.

Sure enough, Yin Changying didn't think that Yin Shen's statement was out of line, but was quite pleasant: "Auntie thinks that Xun Shen is a talent that can be created?" ”

Of course, he knew that Yin Cheng was an idealist, otherwise she would not let go of the preferential treatment in the palace and sleep out every day.

Even if Yin Changying was not at ease, in addition to the family engineering team, the palace people, temple people, and all kinds of craftsmen allocated by the Shaofu sent a lot of them out to revolve around her.

But when you are traveling, you must be far from being in the palace.

What's more, Yin Ji still refuses to be supplied by local counties and wealthy households, and does not like superhuman treatment, and runs into the mountains from time to time, just to dig tunnels and build a smooth road.

Xun Shen is the same.

It's ridiculous to say, if people like Yin Ji and Xun Shen are not attached to their ideals, and adhere to their inner beliefs, they will be good people. Instead, they will abandon their principles, use their talents to the fullest, and ignore morality, and their lives will be far more comfortable than they are now, and they will never often do things that are thankless, jealous, and put themselves in a worrying situation.

Yin Cheng knew that Yin Changying didn't really want to ask her if she thought Xun Shen was talented, but just wanted to know her attitude towards Xun Shen.

If she looked at this person differently because they were both idealists, he would not hesitate to give Xun Shen another chance.

Yin Ji shook her head and said lightly: "I don't know what kind of impact the destruction of the country will have on him, maybe he will be revitalized, or he may be sluggish, this may not be said." I just think that there are not many people with such talent, and the imperial court is not short of this money, so why not raise it? ”

This is the completely different attitude between her and Yin Changying.

Yin Changying is a pragmatist, believing that Xun Shen's whole value lies in thought, since he has hollowed out all the ink in the other party's belly and evolved into various policies. Xun Shen is naturally useless, and it doesn't matter if he lives or dies.

Yin Shen felt that Xun Shen was indeed not of much value to Zhaoguo now, and he might not have it in the future.

After all, his talent, talent, cognition and thinking ability are all there, and the probability that Jiang Lang is exhausted is not nothing, but what if there are any brilliant thoughts and theories?

Anyway, the imperial court doesn't have many more people, and there are many fewer people, so why can't Xun Shen be tolerated?

This is the same as many large companies in later generations, which like to monopolize the acquisition of patented technology, and keep throwing money at various high-tech laboratories.

Many patents and technologies, in fact, are only in their embryonic form and may not be successful, and there may be a serious imbalance between investment and expenditure. It is common to burn money to invest and lose money.

But if you don't burn this money, when the industry changes in the future, it can only be eliminated by the times, and it will still be declared bankrupt.

Yin Changying doesn't understand the phrase "investing in the future", he just doesn't think it's necessary.

The country is too big, the population is too large, and talents are like weeds on the ground, which will always pop up.

Just like the common people, no matter how they levy conscription and wage war, they will still keep giving birth to children, and there will still be people in the country.

Within the Yin royal family, there is even a theory that only when the king changes, he will secretly teach it to the heir.

That is - don't let the country have too many people.

Once the population of the country is too large, the people will not be able to feed their children and cannot afford to eat.

At this time, they will naturally go to find someone who can keep them alive, and the family will be big, and the position of the king will not be so secure.

This is also one of the reasons why Zhao frequently launched foreign wars.

In the land of Yongzhou, only the Yongzhou Plain is fertile soil, and the grain harvest in other places is not good.

If it were not for the continuous consumption of the population through foreign wars, and the promotion of new magnates to give people upward motivation, how could the Zhao Kingdom have a foundation for 600 years?

In non-war times, in order to control the population, Legalist officials will also think of various methods.

Of course, they can't encourage ordinary people not to have children, it's self-defeating.

The best way is to fabricate accusations, and reduce the son-in-law, the vagabond, the bachelor, etc., to the city and prisoners, and let them do hard labor.

Of course, the external caliber is, look at this group of guys, they are lazy and greedy, otherwise why can't they please the fine gentleman, and the land in the family is all lost?

If such people are not punished for hard labor, is there any heavenly reason?

When the people think about it, they think that it is also, how can people who live diligently not come to this point, right?

Not only did he have no opinion on this, but he also raised his hands to welcome it, and he usually saw his son-in-law and homeless man, just like seeing a plague god, and looked down on him in every way.

Thinking of this, Yin Ji couldn't help sighing: "I just hope that the war will end as soon as possible, and in a few years, everyone will be fed and clothed, and there will be no need to discard the baby." ”
