Chapter 944: Long-term Meal Ticket (Fourth Update)
After listening to Ye Chunqiu's words, in fact, Zhu Houzhao was still a little stunned, he was just a person who grew up in a greenhouse after all, and such a person was probably taken for granted. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
In what Ye Chunqiu said, there was no big truth, but he said some of his thoughts in the most plain tone, just like talking about his heart, not disgusting, but with Zhu Houzhao's comprehension and acceptance ability, how could he not understand?
So Zhu Houzhao couldn't help but show a little depressed again, and said, "If you say this, you will discourage me again." ”
Ye Chunqiu smiled instead: "In all dynasties, in fact, there is no shortage of people who are compassionate and compassionate, but such people often do things badly, and even cause disasters...... Such as that Wang Mang, such as that Wang Anshi, and even the younger brother Dou Gu, is the Jianwen Tianzi around such as Fang Xiaoru, Qi Tai, Huang Zicheng, etc., but also noble character, from the beginning to the end, abide by their own ideas, they see the symptoms, insight into the key to the problem, but they take everything for granted, so when they really do things, it will cause disasters, often can do things, but some turbidity, they are familiar with the world, do things slowly, never empty words, There is no deafening remarks, although the new policy is good, it is a castle in the air, and this Wang Mang reform, and the Shenzong reform, and even the new system proposed by Fang Xiaoru is no different, if Your Majesty wants to change, since you can't change it, then go to create it out of thin air, it's too difficult to change, we will start a new stove, this is also the original intention of the town government, we build a new army, is different from Zhuwei and Jingying, Your Majesty and your brother to run the investment bureau, is different from the Ministry of Household and the Ministry of Industry, Your Majesty, we abandon those red tape, There are also countless constraints to do something that has never been done in the past, which is what the minister just said about changing the economic foundation and lifestyle. ”
After saying this, after a pause, Ye Chunqiu said again: "But you can't learn those changes, if you want to do it overnight, Your Majesty and your courtiers can't be too hasty, not only not in a hurry, but slowly, don't let people feel anything, just make progress every day, change a little every day, and when someone is alert and suddenly looks back, it is not easy to strangle." ”
Zhu Houzhao couldn't help but be happy, as if he finally understood the essence of what Ye Chunqiu said, a knowing smile appeared on his face, and said, "Oh, it turns out that you said that you want me to abolish the new policy and concentrate on re-running your new policy." ”
New?
Ye Chunqiu was stunned for a moment, is this a new deal?
Ye Chunqiu thought about it carefully, he felt that it was not right, he never wanted to change anything in the system design, Ye Chunqiu only cared about the economic foundation, in a group of landlords, you raised your arms and shouted, come to a sentence Lao Tzu starts today, to start capitalism ****, from now on, this kind of person is absolutely neurotic, the brain is absolutely convulsive, in less than two days, even if you give you 100,000 Zhenguo New Army, it will be beaten by the world Xing life can not take care of itself.
The essence of everything is demand, because the prosperity of commerce will give birth to a new rentier class, and the new rentier class will naturally begin to demand more rights, and with more rights, they will naturally choose a system that is more beneficial to themselves.
The landlords and the merchants, neither of whom is much more noble than the other, are essentially a group of rentier classes, and the reason why the merchants have replaced the landlords and the new system has eliminated the old system is not so much to call it progress as to better meet the needs of the productive forces.
To a certain extent, in the era of low productivity, if a large amount of manpower and material resources are piled on the body of businessmen, this is undoubtedly a crime, but once the productive forces have developed, but the manpower and resources are put on the rentier landlords, it is also a crime, people are not good or bad, the same people, yesterday was still the gentry who built bridges and paved roads, tomorrow may become a bad gentry who imprisons people, this is not that people have changed, but just keep pace with the times.
What Ye Chunqiu said, Zhu Houzhao actually seemed to understand a little, but he trusted Ye Chunqiu, so he didn't dwell too much, and nodded fiercely: "But I can trust you, you are my brother." ”
Belch...... Some enthusiasm made Ye Chunqiu at a loss.
After Ye Chunqiu and Zhu Houzhao talked about some things in general, they left the palace.
After waiting at home for two days with peace of mind, there was finally an edict to rekindle the grace, and it was an official from the Ministry of Rites who came, which meant that the newly promoted Sixth Grand Duke had not only been confirmed by the palace, but also received the support of the cabinet and the Sixth Ministry.
Since Emperor Wen, for any title reward, the attitude of the cabinet and hundreds of officials has always been harsh, to put it bluntly, the title is a long-term meal ticket, is an iron rice bowl, but the problem is that the court has raised a lot of princes and nobles, especially the children of the clan, it is countless, and the burden has been very large, at this time, anyone who wants to mix in the ranks of long-term meal tickets will inevitably be examined by the court with the most harsh means, especially the national prince, this gold content is too high, not to mention, So much so that from Emperor Wen to Chongzhen hanging himself on the coal mountain, there was no duke, but when he arrived in Nanming, he suffered the disaster of losing the country, and in order to resist the Qing army going south, he distributed long-term meal tickets everywhere.
Seeing that it was a ceremonial official, Ye Chunqiu breathed a long sigh of relief, it was actually not easy to make a consistent decision between the court and the palace, those bureaucrats, not that they really couldn't even afford to raise a national duke, but the most feared set a precedent. That's really making people unable to live.
On the one hand, because there had been a posthumous seal before, the palace and the court did not expect that Ye Chunqiu would come back alive, so this was a big misunderstanding, on the other hand, it was also Ye Chunqiu's contribution that was too great, and he put down the rebellion with his own strength, which can be described as a masterpiece and a precedent, after all, few people in this world can imitate.
Ye Chunqiu received the will, and his heart was full of emotion, the Ye family ...... can be regarded as a real wealthy family, Mrs. Ye tried her best to pretend to be calm, but she was still so excited that her hands were shaking, fortunately, the ceremonial official was still there, but she was not worried that he would fall into a state of madness again.
The ceremonial official handed over the holy decree to Ye Chunqiu, and then said with a smile: "Zhenguo Gong, congratulations, oh, here is the silver seal and clothes given by the palace emperor, as well as silver belts and iron scrolls, please also accept them from Zhenguo Gong." ”
