Chapter 112 Talking about the World

Liu Feng listened to it and thought about it and thought it was good, but he also knew that if he said this kind of thought, the people who opposed him were definitely the most fierce Confucianism, in the Qing Dynasty in the previous life, the reform of the Xinhai Revolution relied on many people studying abroad to transmit Western democratic education among the people to cause a strong reaction from the masses, and most of the conservative people were Cixi's subordinates, and these conservative people were very disdainful of Western democratic education, they believed that only ancient Confucianism was the best, And most of these literati are Confucian people, not that they are all bad people, they can do such things completely because of the constraints of feudal thinking, but they will never understand that the times are changing, society is progressing, and knowledge is the same, each era has its own culture, and this culture is only suitable for the present, backward will be beaten, this is the same truth from ancient times to the present.

Liu Feng knew that it was not difficult for the people to accept this, after all, it was beneficial to them, and the interests of the society were at the forefront no matter when, Liu Feng was not worried that the people would say more because of this, what Liu Feng cared about now was those old Confucian stubbornness. Confucianism has been prevalent since the Han Dynasty, so Confucian people have absolute rights in the government and the opposition, and Liu Feng is now worried that his idea violates the interests of Confucian people, if this situation is really encountered, then Liu Feng will be helpless, after all, there are so many Confucian people in this society, he is not like Qin Shi Huang to burn books and pit Confucianism.

Liu Feng knew that the reform must also conform to the trend of history, and it must be implemented without harming the interests of others, such as Wang Anshi's reform in the Song Dynasty, when Wang Anshi took a series of measures, such as the Qingmiao Law, the Recruitment Law, the Farmland Water Conservancy Law, the Fangtian Average Tax Law, the Baojia Law, etc., although Wang Anshi's reform law achieved certain results, it was eventually abolished, because the new law violated the interests of the big landlords, and was opposed by them and ultimately failed. Reform in order to safeguard the long-term interests of the entire landlord class will inevitably infringe on the interests of certain bureaucratic landlords, who will inevitably stand up against the reform.

When Song Shenzong wanted to adopt Wang Anshi's reforms, it aroused the opposition of some old and important ministers, Tang Jiedao: "Wang Anshi can not be a big responsibility, if he is the prime minister, I am afraid of many changes" Fu Bi, Han Qi, Sima Guang and other ministers also opposed Song Shenzong's use of Wang Anshi, after Wang Anshi took power, almost every promulgation of a change had to be obstructed and opposed by conservative forces. They did not send or accept the "law of the ancestors" when they changed the law, and even said that the natural disasters that occurred at that time were also caused by the implementation of the new law. In terms of academic thought, he accused Wang Anshi of "betraying Confucianism and advocating the law". In short, the conservative forces attacked and criticized the new law presided over by Wang Anshi everywhere, causing the Song Shenzong, who was determined to make great efforts, to be shaken, and the internal division of the reform faction was divided.

Although all the reasons seem to be that Wang Anshi's reform of the law was too hasty to touch the interests of the landlords and failed, in fact, the ultimate reason was because of the constraints of Confucianism at that time. At this time, Liu Feng moved the social system of hundreds of years later to be used here, and he now doesn't know if it is feasible, although the novels in his previous life are written like this, saying that the protagonist unifies the country and implements what socialist system, and the people live a happy life, etc., but now this is not in the novel (well, I admit, this is in the novel), so Liu Feng does not think that this method will be successful.

However, Liu Feng thought that maybe some of the systems of modern society would not be suitable for this dynasty, but it was only some, and if he could apply those things that were suitable for this society to this society, then Liu Feng believed that it would not be difficult for the country to become the current hegemon of Asia. As for the rest, Liu Feng decided to take his time. After all, he hasn't gotten this world yet, so it's all in vain to say it now.

Liu Bowen saw that Liu Feng had been frowning and thinking about something, and he couldn't bother, but after such a long time, he couldn't sit still, so he found a topic to wake Liu Feng up, only to hear Liu Bowen ask: "Brother Liu, I don't know what you just said and what is the difference between the Zen Rang in the Yaoshun period?" ”

At this time, Liu Feng had already finished thinking about it, and after hearing Liu Bowen's question, he thought that there was another person next to him, so he woke up and said: "I'm sorry, Berwin, I was fascinated by thinking about things just now, I'm really embarrassed." ”

"Oh, out of the way, out of the way." Liu Bowen heard Liu Feng say this, what else could he say, and he didn't blame Liu Feng in the first place.

"By the way, Berwyn, what did you just ask me?" Liu Feng remembered that Liu Bowen seemed to ask him something just now, so he said. Liu Bowen was helpless after hearing it, so he said it again, Liu Feng listened: "This is actually not much different from the Zen concession system, in the Yaoshun period, people are born equal, and there is no distinction between high and low, everyone is done at sunrise, is to fall and perch, so the society at that time was stable, but in the Yu period, the class appeared, and naturally there was the establishment of the country, and from the death of Yu, the public world became a family world, they passed on from generation to generation, and the children and grandchildren will not be as talented as their predecessors, But they are still unwilling to give up the world to others, and all will be divided. ”

Liu Feng paused for a moment and said: "And the system I am talking about is also to turn the family world into a family world, and everyone is born equal, but on top of this, it is necessary to integrate various cultures, such as the rule of law, which is different from the current law, I am talking about governing the country according to the law, that is, the broad masses of the people under the leadership of the state, in accordance with the law, through various ways and forms to manage state affairs, economic and cultural undertakings, and social affairs, to ensure that all work of the state is carried out in accordance with the law, and gradually realize the institutionalization and legalization of democracy." so that the system and the law will not change because of the change of leaders, nor because of the change of leaders' views and attention. Today's country seems to be governed by the rule of law, but in fact it is ruled by man. ”

Liu Feng and Liu Bowen talked to Liu Bowen about some of the guidelines and strategies for governing the country in later generations, but he still seemed to understand it, Liu Feng knew that it was difficult for him to accept these things hundreds of years later, so Liu Feng tried to make his statement as simple as possible, but even so, there were still many things he didn't understand. For example, what is a citizen, what is a social thing, what is an economic and cultural cause, what is the rule of man, what is ......, in short, Liu Feng finally answered a little impatiently, and thought in his heart: "If it weren't for the fact that you are a celebrity and want to subdue you, Lao Tzu would not have kicked you aside......

Liu Feng saw that Liu Bowen still didn't understand, so he took a deep breath and said: "Let's put it this way, at that time, to put it bluntly, it means democracy." ”

"Democracy? What does democracy mean? Liu Bowen asked. When Liu Feng heard him, he felt that he was about to go crazy, and he couldn't imagine that it would be so difficult to speak modern with the ancients, and the person in front of him was still a person who could be called Zhuge in this era.

Liu Feng had already committed suicide hundreds of times in his heart, but Liu Bowen asked him not to say anything, so he said: "Democracy is a state system that allows the country to jointly manage state affairs in accordance with the principles of equality and the minority obeying the majority. In democracies, where the people have supreme sovereignty over legislators and governments, democratic governments have specific principles and ways of operating that distinguish them from other forms of government, despite the nuances of the world's democracies.

Democracy is a government in which all citizens exercise their rights and civic responsibilities directly or on their freely chosen representatives. Democracy is a set of principles and ways of behaving that protect human freedom, and it is the institutionalized expression of freedom. Democracy is based on the principle of majority decision, while respecting the rights of individuals and minorities, and democratic countries strive to protect the basic rights of individuals and minorities while respecting the will of the majority. Democracies take care not to give supremacy to national governments, which are decentralized to the regions and localities, and understand that local governments must be as open to the people as possible and responsive to their demands......"
