Chapter 15 Q&A
Zhu Yuanzhang sighed, looked at Zhu Biao and said.
"Now you should be able to think about why I attach importance to the clan, not only because of family affection."
"More importantly, this is exactly the original intention of the clan system that I set up in the first place."
"Mr. Yang is not wrong at all, I did set up the clan system at the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China in order to stabilize the imperial power of later generations."
"To put it bluntly, the clan is our Zhu family, everyone has the same clan and surname, so naturally they have the same heart."
"I have always believed in the clan the most, only my own family."
"I hope that the Ming Dynasty can continue to prosper, and no courtier can bear this heavy responsibility."
"The most sincere courtier cannot guarantee that his descendants can assist the emperor without distractions like him."
"The human heart is unpredictable, and the imperial power has such a huge attraction."
"I treat the clan so favorably just to unite the entire Zhu family."
"The strength of one person is not enough, it must be the strength of a family, this is the real terrifying existence."
"The entire Zhu family is strong, so naturally they don't need to rely on the help of outsiders, so they can take the lead alone."
"Don't be afraid of the strength of an outsider."
"Compared to the clan relatives, the ministers are just outsiders who have nothing to do with each other after all."
"They care more about the benefits, the benefits."
"And, even if you give enough benefits, you can't see the other party's sincerity."
"In the previous dynasties, there were also many usurpers from foreign relatives."
"Outsiders can only subdue his people forever, and they can't subdue his heart, so when it's time to use the iron wrist, you have to use it!"
When he said this, he glanced at Zhu Biao meaningfully.
"But the clan is different, a group of people who are originally related by blood, if they get some more benefits, they will definitely be brought together."
"Well, if the Ming Dynasty perishes, the ministers can change the emperor and continue to worship."
"However, the clan can't do it, and their final outcome will definitely be wiped out."
"The Nine Clans can best illustrate this point, and this is also a truth that all clans understand."
"Mr. Yang doesn't also approve, saying that the welfare of our Daming clan is the best in history."
"I use this to win people's hearts and unite the clan."
"Only in this way, when the emperor is in trouble, even if the princes and clans of all walks of life hesitate, they will make a move to protect the emperor after some weighing."
"Because, the clan relatives of the vassal kings will consider that if they take the opportunity to start an incident, the benefits are not great, and they can be idle vassal kings outside, and even the emperor can't compare."
"I just want them to be ideologically slack, but they have the capital of royalty."
"That's the ultimate meaning of my clan system."
"If you want to achieve this goal, you can't achieve it without treating the clan favorably."
"But in the end, I missed a little, and the most important one......"
Zhu Yuanzhang didn't continue, but Zhu Biao completely understood.
He was still amazed in his heart at the moment that Zhu Yuanzhang's layout was so far-reaching.
Zhu Biao couldn't help but feel ashamed.
Zhu Yuanzhang paused slightly, and said with emotion, "I just think that future generations may treat the clan harshly, so I set a privilege so that future generations must follow it." ”
"Although I am thinking about how to stabilize the imperial power for a long time after thousands of generations."
"However, in the end, it still led to Daming's loneliness."
Zhu Biao also understood at this time that Zhu Yuanzhang carefully analyzed these with himself, and the reasons behind them.
His face was a little tangled, and he recalled that his plan was only a palliative treatment.
"Dad, my son's method is really inappropriate."
"Daddy's lesson is right!"
"But ......"
Zhu Biao is not stupid, Yang Yun gave him another idea, but why did he only propose a palliative treatment in the end?
The reason is precisely that he doesn't want to use the root cause!
How do I use it? How can it be used?
These are all troublesome to this Zhu Biao.
When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he also understood Zhu Biao's thoughts in his heart.
In fact, he has been worrying a lot lately.
But after listening to Yang Yun's lecture, he postponed the original plan to be carried out.
After all, nothing is more important than the root cause of the demise of the Ming Dynasty.
Thinking of this, he patted Zhu Biao on the shoulder and said, "Dad was a little impatient just now, also because, recently, I felt tricky in deciding on the choice of employment system. ”
"That's it, we'll discuss this matter later, and deal with the matter mentioned by Mr. Yang first."
Zhu Biao suddenly realized, because the point of view put forward by Yang Yun was too shocking, causing him to forget about it.
Zhu Biao remembered that Zhu Yuanzhang had been thinking about whether to choose the probationary system or the imperial examination system a few days ago.
Because, before, the two were used interchangeably.
But in this way, the increased expenses are a lot.
Moreover, how can the state be uncertain about an employment system?
At present, in the Ming Dynasty, it is completely impossible to select officials who can be used in scientific examinations, and although the probation system can be used, it is very easy to cause a party to run a private business.
In addition, the scientific expedition also caused a serious differentiation between the north and the south, which was not conducive to Zhu Yuanzhang's intention to win over the hearts of students in the north.
Before, Zhu Yuanzhang also found Song Lian to understand, at that time, the two talked about it, and they took the Shiren in eight shares.
But before I could start in-depth research, there was a problem with the clan.
Zhu Biao, who retracted his thoughts, looked at Zhu Yuanzhang and said, "Dad, why don't I find a time and go to consult Mr. Yang alone." ”
"The meaning of my father's coming today, my son has already understood."
"Dad wants his son to deeply understand what Mr. Yang means, Mr. Yang's intelligence is not comparable to me, he already has ideas, just do it."
"What Mr. Yang said is indeed very right, treating the symptoms but not the root cause, and the problems are continuous!"
"I think that since Mr. Yang can raise the issue of the clan and let us think about it slowly, it is obvious that he has already made a decision."
"As long as I humbly ask for advice, my husband will definitely teach me."
"Mr. didn't say it before, but he also wanted to test us."
"Even the Manchu Dynasty civil and military can't see the problem, but Mr. Yang said it in detail."
"He also understands what he means, he wants to see our attitude, and then answer our questions."
"Dad, is what my son said right?"
After Zhu Biao finished speaking, he looked at Zhu Yuanzhang with burning eyes.
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded with satisfaction, "That's right, you finally understand what your father meant, and it's not in vain that I told you so much." ”
"Mr. Yang's talent is beyond our ability, such a strange person must be treated well, and Mr. must not be displeased."
"Son, you should learn from Mr. well, but anyone who can master one ten-thousandth of it can be of infinite use to ensure the long-term peace and stability of my Ming Dynasty!"
"Mr. Yang has a magical background, is knowledgeable, and extremely unique, and his ideas have benefited me immensely."
After Zhu Yuanzhang finished speaking, he looked admiring.
Zhu Biaolian nodded, and said quite approvingly, "Dad, don't worry, with Mr. Yang here, he will definitely be able to bless me Daming." ”
"Don't worry, take care!"
