Chapter 184: The words are amazing
This kid really dares to say it.
Fortunately, it was Jiang Hong, the prince who knew the general thing.
If it were someone else, this kid would have to get into trouble.
However, Li Xuan's analysis does make some sense.
It is true that the real fight against Great Xia is true, the kings want to make great efforts, and even many previous emperors have set up big plans, and later emperors have optimized and implemented them.
But in Great Xia, it got worse and worse.
Where are the roots?
Everyone knows it, but they don't dare to say it, or they can't do anything about it.
Just when Li Xing fell into thought.
Li Xuan, this kid, once again said amazingly: "If today, the family controls the place, and the edict of the imperial court can hardly go out of the control of Kyoto, and even if it can be released, it will be harmful to the people and bad government." ”
"How can there be bad governance in the imperial court?"
Although Jiang Hong said that he had a lot of subtleties about his father's connivance with the family, he knew that his father would never do evil.
So ask out loud.
Li Xing also looked at Li Xuan with interest.
See if he can get to the point?
"Naturally, there will be no bad government in the imperial court, but some edicts of the imperial court will become evil government when they arrive in the locality, Your Highness, do you know that the imperial power is not under the county?"
Li Xuan asked rhetorically.
Jiang Hong nodded: "There is indeed such a saying, but why does good governance become evil government?" ”
"Don't talk far, let's just say that the green seedling law promulgated by the imperial court the year before last, the original intention of the imperial court was to let the people not borrow usury from large households when the green and yellow are not available, but by the local provinces, prefectures, and counties, the seeds will be lent to the people at very low interest, and when the harvest is harvested next year, when the tax is paid, an extra five catties of grain per stone can be paid."
"However, when the actual harvest came, the officials used various reasons to say that after the time limit for the people to pay taxes beyond the imperial court, the interest would become interest, and in the end, ninety percent of the people's annual harvest would be taken, which was not much different from borrowing usury."
"Your Highness, do you know why this is happening?"
When Li Xuan said this, Jiang Hongqi's eyes were about to pop out.
The clenched fists of his hands also rattled.
However, he still controlled his emotions and said in a deep voice: "I don't know, please ask Mr. for advice." ”
Li Xing rolled his eyes, why else, local officials, layer by layer, have to get stuck in oil and water, without finding a reason, how can oil and water get stuck?
Only then did Li Xuan speak: "Because there are no seeds in the county, government, or province, the seeds they lend to the people are all borrowed from large households, and the borrowing naturally has interest, and if you want to pay it off, you have to take it back from the people, and of course, more importantly, in this process, they can make a lot of money." ”
"Aren't they afraid that the East Window Incident will happen and the court will punish the crime?"
Jiang Hong didn't expect that local collusion would reach such a point, no wonder many people were rebelling.
If this is the case all over the world, he puts himself in his shoes and thinks about it, if he can't live, he will naturally rebel.
Woniu Mountain is not a living example.
Those people who couldn't survive didn't follow him as bandits.
It's just that the officials in the northwest, although greedy, have not reached the point of fishing so hard.
But soon Jiang Hong figured it out, it was because of the infiltration of many forces in the northwest.
If anyone goes too far, they will be found by the other side and taken directly.
In addition, there is also a toast among them, and if you are in a hurry, you will become a toast, and the court will directly cut off the head of the local county order when it finds out.
That's why it's relatively better.
Just when Jiang Hong was thinking nonsense.
Li Xuan said with a solemn face: "Has Your Highness forgotten what you just said?" The imperial power is not under the county. ”
"All the policies in the county have to rely on the local clans and landlords, even if the ministers come and they cover each other, what can the Qincha see? Even if he sees it, can Qin Cha return to Beijing alive? ”
Li Xuan asked rhetorically.
Jiang Hong was obviously stunned.
I suddenly thought of an incident three years ago.
The father, who has always been moody, was angry in the imperial study that day.
And it was a big fire, and it tore up all the folds.
At that time, it seems that two imperial historians who were patrolling the place were killed by robbers on the way back.
He just reminded him in a whisper that it would be very troublesome for his father to tear up the fold.
Then he was beaten severely by the emperor, and his buttocks were swollen for seven days before he slowly recovered.
At the time he didn't understand, now he suddenly understands.
It seems that the two Qincha have discovered something.
"You have a point, but how do you solve these problems?"
"It's hard to solve these problems, but it's not impossible, I don't know what Your Highness is up to? Can Your Majesty fully support His Highness? ”
When Jiang Hong heard this question, his spirit suddenly lifted, and his eyes were blazing: "As long as I can make my Great Xia Zhongxing, the determination of this palace will never waver, and my father can also fully support this palace." ”
Li Xing also came to be interested.
He also wanted to hear Li Xuan's high opinions.
Let's see what the difference is from the slowly advancing strategy that he has been secretly executing in his heart.
"That's easy, first of all, Your Highness wants to establish a new army directly under the imperial court, this new army must be invincible, used to deter those local heroes, as long as anyone dares to come forward, directly exterminate."
"In this way, the imperial court can use strong military strength to deter local forces and slowly return local rights to the imperial court."
"Second, the imperial power must go down to the county, or even to the countryside, and the court has a new policy, and the people at the bottom must be informed in the form of words, and the notices written cannot be in today's format, just use the vernacular spoken by the people, which is simple and easy to understand, and not too much literary style."
"Third, the imperial court decree ......"
Li Xuan said eight things in one breath.
Almost everything related to Bactria is covered.
And each one is very thorough.
If it can really be implemented, Li Xing also feels that Daxia can indeed usher in ZTE.
It's just that all of this is based on the fact that the imperial court should establish a foundation that can always deter the world's army.
If this army does not exist, all strategies are in the mirror.
Jiang Hong was unusually fascinated by what he heard, and his eyes began to glow with stars.
In his opinion, Li Xuan is not worse than Li Xing at all.
Seeing that the two of them looked like they hated each other, Li Xing smiled and said to Jiang Hong: "Your Highness, you two continue, I'm a little anxious." ”
"Lao Li, you are really lazy and donkey has a lot of and urine, such a big strategy, why don't you listen to it?"
Jiang Hong couldn't help but complain about Li Xing.
Li Xing smiled and said: "As long as His Highness understands, it will be fine, and when the time comes, write an excerpt and present it to His Majesty, don't say it, I can't hold it back." ”
After speaking, Li Xing covered his stomach and left, but when he passed by Li Zhongkang and Li Yuanwai, he glanced at him.
Li Yuanwai is a good person, and he understands it in seconds.
Quietly, he slowly retreated and left with Li Xing.
When he got outside, Li Zhongkang didn't wait for Li Xing to speak, so he confessed to Li Xing: "Little uncle, my nephew knows that he is wrong, and I ask your old man to punish him." ”
