Volume 2 A Dream in Huangzhou Chapter 47 Inheritance (I)
Qin Zi slowly got up and left the noodle stall.
To be honest, before this, Qin Zi really couldn't imagine what the so-called taste of human affection looked like.
But today, or until now, he has slowly had the answer in his heart. Without too much commemoration, Qin Zi just turned around and left here.
In fact, for him, it doesn't matter if the owner of this noodle stall can stick to it.
The final intersection between him and the middle-aged man is just that he may occasionally come here to eat some noodles in the future.
However, this time, Qin Zi really felt that kind of heart-warming human touch.
Reason, like him, is the most unseemly of such feelings, because this feeling is completely unknown in his heart.
His intellect made him completely unaware of this emotion, but his sensibility allowed him to really feel it.
It's not that he can't feel it, it's just that it's hard to really understand what it is.
For this reason, he was confused for a while.
And after talking to the middle-aged boss, he has begun to be able to feel such emotions a little, no matter what, at least this is a certain progress.
Not only that, in fact, for him, this incident made him feel the most not such a human touch, but made him realize what kind of advantages mortals have compared to the ancestors who are high-
That is, inheritance.
Yes, that is the inheritance, the same ethereal, lacking any practical meaning, but it can make Qin Zi truly feel the greatness of mortals, that is the so-called inheritance.
The middle-aged stall owner did not inherit his father's handiwork, perhaps in his eyes, his father was just an old man on the verge of death, maybe a few months ago, he was just a loser who would only reach out to his father for money.
However, regardless of the past, he is here now, running his father's noodle stall strongly.
Maybe at first it was just to make ends meet.
However, Qin Zi felt that when he was able to give up his immediate interests and stick to his father's traditions, he was no longer running the noodle stall for himself, in order to make ends meet.
Such a thing is too abstract, but Qin Zi really feels it deeply, the taste of inheritance.
Although the middle-aged owner failed to inherit his father's craftsmanship, in the process of running this shop, he has been able to slowly understand how his father once felt, and under the influence of this, he has slowly embarked on the path that his father once walked.
That's the power of legacy.
Maybe for ordinary immortals, such things are insignificant, but it just so happens that Qin Zi is not an ordinary mountain person, he can find what he needs in these things.
Inheritance is based on the recognition of the weakness of mortals, in order to reflect its true meaning.
That is the persistence of a generation, if that generation can't complete it, then continue to pass on that spirit, leave it to the next generation to complete, if the next generation can't complete it, then give it to the next generation, and so on, endlessly.
Even if the immortal has a long lifespan, there will be an end after all, but the inheritance of mortals will not, as long as that spirit still exists in the world, no matter what kind of difficulties they face, they can continue to pass it on, which is difficult for immortals with an extremely long life span to do, this is a patent belonging to mortals, and it is something that only mortals can do.
This is something that few high-ranking immortals can notice.
And Qin Zi happens to be one of the few people in this world who can feel such a powerful person.
Of course, it was precisely because of knowing this powerful power that Qin Zi couldn't help but be a little worried.
With such a powerful force, what would it be like to be his enemy one day?
Qin Zi didn't know, but he was sure that it would definitely not be a good feeling.
……
Bianliang, which is the name of an ancient city.
Here, it is the capital of the Dali Dynasty, so in this country, he also has another name - the capital.
The so-called capital is naturally the center of the imperial court.
At this time, above the court, Zhou Shangwen, the Jianyuan Emperor wearing a bright yellow dragon robe, sat on the throne and watched the ministers below arguing with some boredom.
In Qin Zi's opinion, Emperor Jianyuan belongs to the kind of good emperor, although there are many things that he can't see clearly about the internal situation of the country, but this does not affect his judgment.
However, for the courtiers, this generation of Emperor Jianyuan is much worse than his father, Emperor Yong'an.
Emperor Yong'an has reigned for many years, and his biggest political achievement is that he has no political achievements.
This is actually a very valuable quality for the king of a dynasty, at least in the eyes of the courtiers.
And the young new monarch Emperor Jianyuan does not have such excellent qualities in their eyes.
Without him, this Jianyuan Emperor loves to toss too much.
These elders of the court, after experiencing the stable political atmosphere of Yong'an, have slowly reached a strange balance.
Between the various political parties, there are checks and balances on each other, and the relationship is still good, almost a form of you singing and our debut, taking turns to be the first assistant of the big departure.
Although there will inevitably be competition, it is generally within the acceptable range.
Therefore, in the Yong'an Dynasty, promotion seems to have become a matter of seniority, and it even requires a certain degree of hope.
Because, although everyone is at the top of their respective political parties, there will still be comparisons between the top leaders, and if they want to improve their status more easily, most people will choose to do something to gain the support of those low-level scholars, so as to gain a certain prestige and pave the way for themselves to compete for high positions in the future.
Even to a certain extent, in the Yongan Dynasty, the main competitors for the promotion of ministers are no longer people from opposing parties, but colleagues from their respective parties.
Of course, no matter what, the political atmosphere of the Yongan Dynasty will not change.
Although there are some shameless people who even want to do something reform or something like that for the sake of hope, but generally it's just for show, if it's a relatively low status, everyone joins forces to kill him, and if the status is higher, everyone gives him a face, give him some benefits, and he doesn't have a good inch, right?
Therefore, for a long time, the Yongan Dynasty has rarely had any large-scale political competition, let alone the party and government.
The officials who have risen up in such an atmosphere will naturally have nothing to do if they don't find an opponent to fight in the ring.
But as the pillars of a country, they naturally will not be idle like this, and they will find things to do for themselves when they have nothing to do, which is a necessary quality for a humerus minister.
Therefore, our officials and gentlemen have set their sights on the land.
It's not that they lack the money for this bit of land, but on the one hand, who doesn't love this kind of thing? Naturally, the more the merrier.
On the other hand, as a big Qing official with clean sleeves, their families also have to spend money, and they don't have so much land, so what do they take to raise those three wives and four concubines in their family, as well as the servants and maids in the courtyard? Naturally, silver is required, and land is the easiest thing to produce silver.
What, why do you want to raise it if you can't afford it?
Of course, it is for the majesty of leaving the country, if you can't even support three wives and four concubines at home, won't it damage the majesty in front of other countries?
Therefore, they are doing this for the sake of leaving the country!
Fortunately, for these ministers of the humerus, Emperor Jianyuan was obviously too lazy to pay attention to them at first.
Since he won't care about them, then whatever he does, what? Emperor Jianyuan wants to check Caoyun?
Your Majesty, such a big thing can easily make the people miserable, but since Emperor Jianyuan insists on going his own way, then they, who are courtiers, can only feed tigers with their bodies.
After all, such a large amount of interests on Caoyun's side have been in the hands of the Jiangnan Party before, and everyone has long been red-eyed, and now that the emperor has spoken, they naturally want to spit it out.
Anyway, it is impossible for the emperor to liquidate them all, no matter what he does, it is nothing more than that, a little rectification, kill a few big corrupt officials, and then the money under the corrupt officials will naturally be handed over to them.
Not only this money, but the most important thing is that they want to divide this channel.
After this completed business, how can there be a long stream of coolness?
Therefore, some time ago, Emperor Jianyuan wanted to rectify Caoyun, and the officials under him were very active!
After all, this is a big event to earn money for yourself, can you not be positive?
For this reason, the various parties even quarreled for a long time, of course, although they also formed a little bond because of this, but fortunately, in the end, Emperor Jianyuan came out to ease up.
It seems that this hairy boy is still inseparable from them, the court officials, and knows that they can't be allowed to quarrel too fiercely, otherwise he, the emperor, will not be able to do well.
Of course, since Emperor Jianyuan wants them not to quarrel, it's actually simple, so take out his share and divide it.
Emperor Jianyuan was obviously still a hairy boy, and he didn't understand the importance of silver, so he really handed over the silver obediently.
The court officials below instantly knew in their hearts, this is still too young, as long as an emperor with seniority knows that if you want to do something, you must have enough money on hand.
However, since Emperor Jianyuan has shown his sincerity, then these courtiers naturally can't help but give face.
Everyone smiled together and pocketed the benefits received after the rectification of Caoyun, and then restored the harmony of the past.
However, it is true that the various parties are not as harmonious as before.
Fortunately, Emperor Jianyuan is a person who can do things.
No wonder he wanted to rectify Cao Yun before, it turned out that he was paying such attention.
Naturally, all the officials of the imperial court are not fools, especially since everyone worked together some time ago to rectify Caoyun, so after Emperor Jianyuan took out the design drawings of the new type of ship, he naturally understood the interests of this thing.
It can be said that in the past, some of the silver on the Cao Yun still flowed into the hands of the Cao households on the river, and even if the money was not from the Cao households in the past, it would not flow into their pockets, and they would not feel distressed, at most only those officials of the Jiangnan Party were distressed.
But now it's different, now this river has become their business, so naturally they can't continue to let this silver go to waste.
What, you said that after the imperial court launched the new boats, those fishermen on the river would be affected?
How can such a major event that benefits the country and the people be delayed for the sake of those people?
The officers of the Command pointed out the disadvantages of the times, argued with reason, and finally persuaded those who opposed it.
Subsequently, it was natural that the imperial court hired a Mo family mechanic to help build a new ship.
Although after the launch of the new ship, there was naturally a quarrel between various parties in order to compete for interests, but fortunately, in the end, everyone obtained good benefits.
Of course, the new ship is not completely without harm, after all, it is to exploit, the amount is wrong, it is to solicit the interests of those fishermen and households, and it will be more or less troublesome.
No, it's only been launched for a long time, and there are voices of opposition from magistrates everywhere in the imperial court, probably applying for the ban on agency boats, requesting for the livelihood of Caomin and fishermen, etc., and the most nonsense is that someone actually asked for a tax reduction for Caohu and fishermen?
Just kidding, taxation is a major matter of the country, how can it be such a child's play?
The person who put forward such an unreliable suggestion was naturally thrown into the poor countryside by them, and because it was a decision announced by the court, it naturally attracted the attention of Emperor Jianyuan, and he believed that this kind of fool who moved the emperor's money bag, even if they didn't target it, the emperor would definitely not let him have a good time.
But it was those other people who said that attracted the attention of the little emperor, and he actually came to ask them, are these things true?
How can such alarmist things be true?
According to calculations, even if a new boat is adopted, it will not affect the lives of the people.
After Emperor Jianyuan heard this, he nodded and believed their statement.
But the emperor's actions still attracted their attention, as officials of the imperial court, they naturally knew about the situation on the river, but they didn't care much about it.
But now that the emperor has actually noticed, did someone secretly reveal it to him?
Sure enough, after some investigation, they finally found out that it was actually the eldest son-in-law of Wang Shoufu's family, who handed the seal to His Majesty, and did not go through the passage of their cabinet, but sent it directly to the harem, and the emperor would come over to ask them after reading it.
After they bribed the eunuch, they got the letter, and I won't go into detail about what was written on it, but in a word-
Caodo fishermen, there is a possibility of rebellion!
