Chapter 29 A gentleman is like a boat, and the people are like water

Yang, Confucianism and Yin, the imperial examination, were unanimously approved by the two factions of Confucianism and law.

Everyone's faces were filled with passion and yearning, and their hearts were full of blood, as if they were about to burst their chests.

"Master Li, will the book burning order still be issued?" Ying Zheng asked quietly.

"Your Majesty, I've tormented the old minister!"

Li Si's expression was extremely complicated and said, "Confucianism and law are at the same time, and ice and charcoal are the same."

A passage from Xia Hao's son, the minister is now suddenly open, and his heart is bright! ”

"Xia Hao, the improvement of Confucianism and Taoism, the simultaneous development of Confucianism and law, and the imperial examination of talents, all of which involve the country, who should take the lead?" Ying Zheng asked indifferently.

Everyone was shocked and stared at Xia Hao.

This is a national policy that determines the fate of the empire and the future direction!

Your Majesty actually consulted a yellow-mouthed child?

However, the source of ideas is all put forward by others, and it is reasonable to pretend to ask politely.

Before you know it, everyone's impression has changed dramatically.

This son is not only a doctor of imperial shooting, but also not only has amazing creativity, but also has a sharp insight into the difficulties of the court, and it is not uncommon for him to enter the inside.

Everyone no longer regards Xia Hao as a bookish boy who scolds Fang Xuan, and the one who reaches it is the first to wait for him.

"Your Majesty must have made a decision!

Improved Confucianism and Taoism, aimed at the divine grant of imperial power;

Confucianism and law are developed at the same time, aiming to optimize the law;

The purpose of the talent examination is to perfect the law.

This move was launched, and the world shook and lasted forever.

And, the orthodox heir of the ice charcoal is none other than Master Li Xiang.

This move, led by the mainstay of the empire, iron-blooded Li Xiang, can be called tailor-made and deserved! ”

Li Si was shocked and looked at Xia Hao in disbelief.

Just now, it was still devouring people, and the bloody blow was just a moment, turning his hands into clouds and covering his hands into rain......

This son is born to be well versed in the art of emperors!

Ying Zheng, who was hiding behind the curtain, had an undetectable smile on the corner of his mouth.

"Color......

Everyone was glad to stand up and cheer.

"In this case, it is according to Xia Hao's proposal.

Led by Li Xiang, together with the Doctor's Palace, he learned from the strengths of all families and improved Confucianism.

Anything that is conducive to the imperial power and the head of the Qiantou is all included in the scope of scientific research.

At the same time, the method and scope of the imperial examination will be formulated, and the first imperial examination in Daqin will be held in the autumn of this year! ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty! Minister, broken bones, will not be dishonored! ”

Li Si bowed to the shrine, and thanked the chief executive!

This is a shocking move!

It was a move that changed the fate of the empire!

And it is a move for the benefit of the country and the people!

Learning and excellence is the best, and the ultimate goal of the career is to be eternal!

……

"Long live Your Majesty!"

"Long live Xia Hao!"

"If the people of Qianshou in the world can be fed, clothed, have a goal to strive for, have an upward channel, and live with dignity......

Let them accept the First Emperor from their hearts, support and love the First Emperor, and regard him as a god who saves themselves, who would think of rebellion?

Without the support of the people of Qianshou, the dream of the restoration of the remnants of the Six Kingdoms is a source of water.

And the first emperor toured the east again, which was a blessing to the world.

Everywhere he went, he brought a particularly favorable imperial examination system to the locality......

Bring salt, alcohol, simple clothes, edible things, and help the common people......

Didn't the people of Qianshou run to tell each other, and eat pot pulp to welcome the king's call? ”

Harvesting the spiritual will of the people in the world and cultivating immortals, isn't it a matter of course?

Become a god in the hearts of the people of Qianshou, Your Majesty, is the real god!

Famous through the ages!

Live with the sky!

Forever! ”

Xia Hao lost no time in burning another fire, and the sound of gold and stone jade law echoed in the hall.

"Color......

The crowd cheered in unison.

"Good ...... Hahaha......"

Live with the sky!

Yingzheng dragon's heart is happy.

【Ding.】 Longyun system information reminder:

The task of stopping the book burning order was completed, and the ten-year martial arts refinement cultivation has been put into the warehouse. 】

……

"Xia Hao's son divides the world into five categories according to friends and enemies, which is extremely insightful.

The first type of people, the remnants of the Six Kingdoms, the contradictions cannot be reconciled, escort Lishan to be a coolie, or kill!

The second type of people, Confucian students in the world, have the passage of the imperial examination, the same text, the same book, the world returns to the heart, and is good! ”

The third type of people is to let the people of Qianshou in the world be fed, clothed, have a goal to strive for, have a ladder to rise, and live with dignity......

This is our lifelong pursuit! ”

Feng Quji said with compassion and emotion, "However, do you know that Qianshou is as you said, the three mountains of taxation, forced labor, and harsh government are unbearable!"

Is there a specific rule in Surabaya County under your rule? ”

……

"What kind of miracle can this son bring?"

Everyone's eyes involuntarily focused on the young man in front of them.

"Governing a big country is like cooking a small fresh.

The essence of governing a county and governing a country is the same.

It is nothing more than to replicate the successful experience of governing one county to the 36 counties of the whole country.

I propose that Surabaya County be designated as a special economic zone, a test field for the second change.

failed, that is, a county, and could not make waves;

Once successful, the essence will be extracted and become the source of replication for the whole country. ”

Xia Hao's subdued voice sounded again.

"Special Economic Zone? Test field? ”

"I think it's possible!"

"Good!"

Everyone was refreshed, and their eyes were burning to look at the god-like boy!

Although it is an unfamiliar new language, it is extremely appropriate and can be understood at a glance.

……

"Moreover, all the changes revolve around the origin of 'the impermanence of the saints and the hearts of the people',"

Xia Hao continued, "Even if there is a slight mistake, it will not be a big mistake! ”

"Color!"

"Good!"

Everyone shouted in unison.

"The impermanence of the saints, the hearts of the people?

This is from Lao Tzu's Tao Te Ching.

Xia Haobo is a psychic person! ”

Zhou Qingchen said excitedly, "This is completely consistent with the Confucian idea of 'the people first, the society secondary, and the monarch light'.

As long as you care about the people of Qianshou, there will not be much deviation. ”

……

"Without investigation, there is no voice! I haven't taken up my post yet, so I can only talk about the theory of governing the county! ”

Everyone's eyes lit up again.

"Without investigation, there is no right to speak, yes!"

Feng Qujian said eagerly, "In this case, let's talk about the theory of governing the county first!" ”

Xia Hao got up and paced back and forth, and Qing Yue's sonorous voice reverberated in the hall.

"In the stage of fighting the world, the community is the most important, the monarch is second, and the people are light;

However, the stage of governing the country is just the opposite...... 'the people are the most important, the society is secondary, and the monarch is light'.

The gentleman is like a boat, and the people are like water.

Water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize a boat! ”

"Color......

Everyone was shocked.

"A gentleman is like a boat, and a people are like water. Water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize a boat. The road is reasonable! ”

Only Yingzheng is extremely depressed, co-authored, according to what you said, won't I become an old man?

……

"First of all, soften the harsh Qin law

Taxation, forced labor, and harsh government are the three mountains above the heads of the people.

No matter what political proposition you choose, you must not deviate from the foundation of 'putting people first'! ”

It has been nearly 200 years since Shang Ying promulgated the original Qin Law.

The Qin Law was born based on the spirit of "seeking change and trying to survive" of the Warring States, and it is a typical wartime rule of law, rather than a normal rule of law.

At the beginning, rewarding cultivation and warfare, and military merits made all the people of Qin have the hope of promotion, and the entire Qin country sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, full of vitality.

The prince broke the law and was guilty of the same crime as the common people.

Fairness, impartiality and transparency.

Although it was harsh, it was diluted because of Jin Jue's wishes, and even condensed the entire Qin State into a monolith.

However, in the stage of governing the world, military merit was hopeless, and the imperial examination system opened another floodgate.

At the same time, Qin Fa is so harsh, he often cuts his nose, breaks his arm, or sits on his waist and slashes him, it is simply a disaster from the sky, and there is no disaster in vain!

Ten companies are organized into a group to encourage each other to produce and supervise actions, one violates the law, the other nine have the obligation to report, and those who do not report are cut in half.

And reporting, like the merit of killing the enemy, is rewarded; Concealing a prisoner is punished as severely as concealing an enemy.

"Harsh government, everyone is at risk, everyone is suspicious, it needs to be moderately improved, optimized, and softened!"

Xia Hao's voice changed suddenly, murderous, "However, crack down on corruption and use power for personal gain......

Dealing with powerful bullies and underworld forces is like an autumn wind sweeping away leaves, cruel and ruthless, and unrelenting.

or to be arrested to build the Great Wall and work as a coolie for the rest of his life......

Or parade the streets, cut a thousand knives, and clean up the source! ”

"Color!"

"Rigidity and softness!"

"Envy and power!"

"This son is affectionate and sexual, and jealous and hateful!"

"This son, thunderbolt means, Bodhisattva's heart!"

……

"Secondly, Qianshou land is privately owned!

Xia Hao continued, "Let the cultivators have their fields!" As the saying goes, those who have constant production have perseverance, and those who do not have permanent production have no perseverance.

In each pavilion, build a farmer support center, uniformly allocate water conservancy, guide farming, repair farming, and allocate farming cattle!

The key to this measure is not to resell land privately.

As long as it is found, buying and selling is the same crime.

If, the head of the Qian, because of laziness, the land is wasted, he will be arrested to build the Great Wall. ”

"Young Master Xia Hao directly grasped the key to the problem!"

Feng Quji interrupted Xia Hao's words, with an angry expression, "Gongzi may not know that the imperial court has already launched the 'Make Qianshou from Shitian'......

However, many people in the Central Plains have lost their land, which is also a major difficulty in your governance of Surabaya County.

"Lost land?"

Ying Zheng, who had been listening quietly, was obviously surprised, "Isn't it a husband and a hundred fields?" Where does the loss of land begin? ”

"Your Majesty, the loss of land is not illegal, so it is rarely noticeable."

Feng Quji's face was helpless, but he said very steadily, "Since Shang Jun changed the law, people's land has been able to be bought and sold freely.

According to the Qin law, it is not illegal to buy or sell land.

Therefore, in recent years, the Shandong clan and wealthy businessmen have taken advantage of various opportunities such as famine, migration, and canal projects to buy Qianshou cultivated land on a large scale.

For example, in Yangcheng, Chen County, next door to Surabaya County, there is a private household, Chen Sheng, who was coerced by the assassins of Zhang Liang, the son of the Zhang family, and sold all his land for more than 200 acres.

His parents and family died of poverty, and Chen Sheng was a servant and could not afford to get married and start a family.

The land of the people continued to flow into the powerful and rich.

After the head of the Qianshou lost all his land, he was reduced to a family of servants and cultivators, almost no different from the slaves of the past.

As far as the consolidation of China is concerned, the disaster of losing land lies in the fact that it leads to the people's poverty and the people's upheaval, which is not in line with the overall situation.

However, as far as statecraft is concerned, the buying and selling of land is in accordance with the law.

With this paradox, it is difficult to deal with the loss of land by households, but it is impossible not to dispose of it. ”

……

"Chen Sheng?"

When Xia Hao heard this name, he restrained his heart, but he couldn't help but be shocked.

"It's just a poor kid with an urn for windows and a straw rope for a hub, and an unemployed blind stream whose land has been sold privately.

Tiptoeing between the ranks, and stubbornly in the midst of the strange, led the tired pawns, and turned hundreds of people to attack Qin.

Chopping wood for soldiers, unveiling poles for flags, the world gathered to respond, and the people followed with food on their backs.

In this way, a group of rabble can sweep away Great Qin with a devastating force......

Of course, it also confirms the strength of Daqin on the surface, but in fact, the building built on the beach is about to collapse at the touch of a button.

Anyway, Surabaya County and Chen County are very close, go and meet him!

Did he want to go to the Great Wall to work as a coolie? Or stay around and be a thug?

His boundless energy should deal with the world-honored clan of Chudi! ”

……

"Young Master Xia Hao, half of the cultivators in Surabaya County have no land, what do you think is the solution to this dilemma?"

Seeing that Xia Hao was deep in thought, Feng Qujian asked.

"Qianshou, the widow is not even!

The remnants of the nobles of the six countries have caused endless harm.

They drank the blood of Qianshou to strengthen themselves, and for many years, they formed a force to rebel against the imperial court.

We just killed the princes and royal families, but the large number of nobles is a huge hidden danger!

Huairou was ordered to move to Xianyang within a month.

The imperial court gave some idle jobs to teach etiquette, after all, they did not break the law, and even the family business earned by their ancestors for several generations.

Cruel, all of them were escorted to Lishan or the Great Wall. ”

"Xia Hao thinks, should Huairou or iron-blooded?" Ying Zheng asked lightly.

"Salute first, then soldier!" Xia Hao said firmly, "Result-oriented, we must realize that the cultivator has his land!"

……

As the topic deepened, His Majesty's face was as gloomy as water.

Obviously, the first time the First Emperor heard that in the past few years, almost half of the country's land has been bought and sold at low prices, and even forcibly seized, and all of them have fallen into the remnants of the Six Kingdoms and famous families.

In the past generations, emperors with a little ambition or a little bit of humanity would not ignore the people.

This is especially true of the first emperor.

But, Yingzheng is not a god after all.

The inertia and limitations of thinking made him focus on the expansion and security defense of the empire, on the consolidation of a game of chess against major powers, and he blindly believed in the deterrence of the Qin Law, but neglected the foundation of survival of "the people are like water".

In the subconscious mind of the first emperor, in addition to increasing the conscription to build the Great Wall and galloping roads, the empire did not increase taxes, and the war decreased, thinking that the people's lives would at least not be worse than before.

But I never thought that across the empire, there was a thick layer of moths in the middle.

The people are struggling to make a living, but the notoriety is carried by Lao Tzu.

Nima, is the co-author of me fighting the world for you turtle grandchildren?

Qin Law must be changed.

I abide by the Qin law, and I have never violated the law and killed a person indiscriminately, but these turtle grandsons took advantage of the loopholes in the Qin law to exploit my loopholes.

Extremely angry, the aura of the king gushed out, the hall was windless and waves, and the curtain shook.

"No matter what you do, I'll support you!"

Ying Zheng's cold voice squeezed out of his chest, "Even if you slaughter the four major families of Chu Dixiang, Jing, Qu, and Zhao, you will not hesitate to fight against it!" ”

Sen Leng's voice seemed to come from the Nine Hells.

"Your Majesty, no! Great Qin is strong because of the law, all because of the Shang Dynasty since the change of the law, from the first king to His Majesty, abide by the Qin law. ”

Zhou Qingchen was shocked, "After all, the purchase and sale of land is legal, and the people involved in the sale of land, in addition to the remnants of the Six Kingdoms, half of the officials in the court also took the opportunity to annex a lot of land.

Slaughtering them not only violates the law, but also shakes the world, and everyone is in danger! ”

"I, act, why do you need to look at anyone's face?!"

At this moment, Yingzheng is like a mountain and a prison, and sitting makes people feel as deep as the sea. But no one can doubt that the slightest movement of this person will be like a storm at sea, crushing the existence of resistance to powder.

……

Everyone couldn't help but look at Xia Hao.

Or this young man's words, His Majesty can hear them.

"Many things, done, but unspeakable!

There is no need to make it known to the whole world, and everyone is in danger.

I saw that this matter was handed over to the weak, and quietly, I knocked out a few fierce people who jumped, killed chickens and monkeys, and knocked on mountains and tigers.

Then, you can sit down and have a good talk! ”

Xia Hao really lived up to expectations, clearing his throat and saying lightly.

Understatement, but the most vicious and despicable means.

"Shhh......

How vicious is the little cub's mind?!

Is it the use of assassination methods?

It's so easy to say, do you know what kind of bloody rain you are going to set off? ”

Everyone gasped, feeling that the saint aura on Xia Hao's body suddenly dimmed a little.

"Lao Tzu is not a moral, a pseudo-saint!"

Xia Hao didn't care, "Then, let me talk about the third strategy for the governance of Surabaya County."

The five major agricultural developments of agriculture, forestry, animal husbandry, sideline and fishery have been carried out in three dimensions. ”

"Five karma? Why? ”

Everyone was stunned, obviously unconscious.

Farming is the cultivation of grains.

The forest is the delicacies of the mountains. Nature's gifts are so numerous that they are inexhaustible. As long as you don't dry up and fish, you can kill chickens and take eggs.

Husbandry is the intensive captive breeding of cattle, pigs, poultry, especially cattle and sheep.

The deputy is the craftsmen around the farmers, such as woodwork, cloth art, iron art, agricultural product processing, etc.

Fishing, Surabaya County, the hometown of Mizusawa. Vigorous and delicious wild fish, fatty fish and other aquatic economy. ”

These five categories are called big agriculture!

Rouqin law, no longer in fear;

There are fields under cultivation, and the people are well fed and clothed;

Coupled with the abundance of three-dimensional agriculture to expand the scope of food, clothing, housing and transportation, within three years, Surabaya County will be a land of fish and rice on the rich side.

Every family has surplus grain, and every household has meat.

If you are well fed, warmly clothed, have books to read, and enter the ranks, how can the people be deceived and rebel?

They wish they had the statue of His Majesty all day long, and it was too late to burn incense and worship!

Maybe next year, Your Majesty will come to Surabaya County to inspect, and the people of Qianshou will run to tell each other, and eat and wrap up pulp to welcome the king! ”

"Color......

"Good! I'm waiting for this day! ”

Zheng, Longxin Dayue, "If one county is cured, two more counties will be given to you, and three counties will let you toss ......"

Everyone looked at each other, shocked and meaningful.

……

"At the same time, I will bring some benefits to Surabaya.

For example, salt, alcohol, simple clothes, furniture, etc., popularized culinary culture.

Tomorrow, I invite you to come to my Hao Kite Mansion, and invite you to taste the delicious food on the tip of your tongue. ”

"Fart!"

Ying Zheng said coldly, "Salt, alcohol, horse harness, and Mo knife are the important weapons of the country, all of which are Lao Tzu, and Lao Tzu took out a county in exchange!"

Shaft Hugh wants to get involved! ”

"Forget about the horse harness and Mo knife, the imperial court can build a 100-person self-defense force for me!"

Xia Hao said stupidly, "Salt, alcohol and other things, is it okay to limit them to Surabaya County?" You've got to give me some land for yourself, right?! ”

Looking at Xia Hao's eyes, Ying Zheng secretly laughed: "Accurate!" ”

"Also, tomorrow evening, let Fusu Dai invite the important ministers of the court, and the banquet venue will be set in Haoyuan Mansion." Ying Zheng added.

"You're treated, I'll pay for it?" Xia Hao pretended to be incredible.

"Lao Tzu has given you a county, and having a meal is to help you. The Surabaya County under your rule is indispensable for the help of these important ministers in the court! ”

"Won't Your Majesty come tomorrow? I promise that these delicacies on the tip of the tongue contain the essence of the jade liquid, and Your Majesty will never taste it! ”

Xia Hao held back the smile in his heart and pretended to be innocent.

"Ahem......"

Ying Zheng couldn't help coughing twice, "I and Ling Zun even made friends, a few cooks in your house have been transferred to the palace, and the meal is really good!"

Ahem, tomorrow, I'm ...... I won't go! ”

Several giants of the Great Qin Spire looked at each other in horror again, they were all thousand-year-old foxes, how could they not hear the taste?

They have secretly made a decision, no matter what, they want to befriend this Xia Hao!
