Chapter 110: Look at the present

Chapter 110: Look at the present

The feeling of tearing on both sides of South Beijing was clearly felt by He Xi. But He Xi smelled a stormy breath, and even felt that Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't do much in this matter.

He Xi's change is almost a revolution. The conflict of interests between the two sides is so intense that it is impossible for both sides to withdraw in vain, because this is related to the redistribution of the interests of countless people and countless families, which can turn the mountains into deep valleys, make the people at the bottom leap to the top, and also make the big families and clans sink and cannot turn over.

No one willingly gives up everything they have.

The only thing that made He Xi feel fortunate was that at the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China, Zhu Yuanzhang had already carried out a cleansing of the world.

The strength of the scholar class has been greatly reduced, and the strength of the nobles has been greatly improved, so that He Xi has a gap to drill, but a gap, what should be faced, must be faced.

Now He Xi is thinking about Zhu Yuanzhang's thoughts, is Zhu Yuanzhang really because of the relationship between father and son, watching the great cause of changing the law disappear.

It is also necessary to consider what the situation in the world will be after Zhu Yuanzhang's absence, and whether He Xi can face the storms in the world after losing Zhu Yuanzhang's protection.

He Xi's eyebrows were deeply locked, and the word "Chuan" in the center of his eyebrows was like a knife carving an axe and chisel, penetrating deep into his forehead.

Everything changes in a direction that is unfavorable to itself.

The real pressure, like a mountain and a sea, gradually lost control of the future. As long as Zhu Yuanzhang is shaken, or because of the Zhu family's foundation and father-son relationship, he changes his approach, and He Xi will face the fate of being in a different place.

This made He Xi feel powerless.

He Xi sighed and started working again.

Everything is in front of you. The future is uncontrollable, and what is controllable is only the present.

Only by doing the things in front of us well and doing enough homework can we have the ability to cope with future changes. However, there were also several names flashed in He Xi's heart, and Ye Shen was the first. There are some things that need to be prepared.

——

Nanjing, East Palace, Prince's Sleeping Palace.

The prince's face was a little better, and he listened to Fang Xiaoru's report.

The prince naturally has eyeliner in Beijing, and everything He Xi did was compiled into a book and reported to the prince. After the prince saw it, the more he looked at it, the more energetic he became.

Most of the prince's illnesses in the past few years are heart diseases, and a small number are real physical diseases. This is still caused by heart disease, and even sometimes, the illness is almost better, and the prince avoids contact with Zhu Yuanzhang.

He was afraid to see Zhu Yuanzhang, afraid that Zhu Yuanzhang would make him express his position and let him make a decision.

However, this does not mean that the prince does not pay attention to He Xi's changes.

The specific regulations and effects of He Xi's changes were updated to the prince almost in time.

The prince was also very happy to see He Xi succeeding in his work.

The prince did not know that He Xi's direction was correct. At least it is much more useful than the Confucian ministers' ideas of governance. Facts have proved that He Xi's method is also very effective.

Tens of millions of silver bills were issued, but the price did not depreciate. But in essence, however, the prices of major commodities have not risen, such as grain, iron, timber, salt, and other bulk prices are stable, and other things have risen a little, in fact, it is not a big problem.

The point is that Beijing has money.

Three million taels?

The scale of Beijing City is not small, if it is completely built, it can be ranked among the top three in the entire Ming City, and he competes for the top three is Suzhou and Nanjing. But in today's situation, Beijing City is still under construction, and it is a half-pulled project. As a result, Beijing City is among the top 10 cities in the world.

For example, Hangzhou, Guangzhou, Kaifeng, Songjiang, Hanyang, etc. The size of the city is above the current Kaifeng.

After the reform is successful, each city will be able to pay 3 million in taxes, and these 10 cities alone will have 30 million in taxes. has far surpassed Tian Fu, when the time comes, how much can the imperial court do?

The prince is not a person who does not know the price of firewood and rice. On the contrary, the crown prince has always been the great steward of the Ming court. The prince knows the situation best.

He knows too well that there are many things that are great things that cannot be solved because there is no money.

With money, the imperial court can do too much.

It can be said that as far as the prince himself is concerned, the prince himself is excited in the face of He Xi's actions in Beijing. Be happy.

He eagerly discussed his thoughts with his closest comrade-in-arms, Fang Xiaoru.

It's just that Fang Xiaoru was silent.

Fang Xiaoru suddenly knelt in front of the prince and said, "Your Highness, please punish He Concubine." ”

The prince was stunned for a moment and said, "Why do you say this? Didn't He Xi do a good job in Beijing? ”

Fang Xiaoru said: "Your Highness, the better He Xi does, the greater the threat to the Ming Dynasty. Since the Warring States Period, emphasizing agriculture and suppressing business has been the consensus of various schools. The merchants, who had no morality to speak of, hoarded goods, violated the laws of the land, bribed the dead, and even killed officials, were capricious and disloyal among the nations, and in the eyes of the merchants, everything could be bought and sold. Including the great tomorrow, because the big business is prosperous and the country is declining, and the businessman will not care about the life or death of the people in the world for the sake of money. Your Highness, what you are doing today is to emphasize commerce over agriculture, not to mention that the people are busy with business affairs, and abandon agricultural affairs, just to say that between the entry and exit of these merchants, there are thousands of dead people. How are state and county officials regulated? The world of ministers is afraid of the future, not the world of the court, but the world of their generations. ”

The prince was slightly stunned, and he said, "Lord Fang is too worried. ”

If the prince hadn't read some books in the later generations, he would really have been moved by Fang Xiaoru's words.

Because after the prince read it, he understood one thing very well, the whole world, except for a few outstanding individuals, such as Zhu Yuanzhang, an emperor, otherwise no emperor can really own the world.

The later emperors of the Ming Dynasty did not reuse merchants, but the Great Tomorrow is the world of these emperors? No, it's the world of scholars.

After figuring it out, the prince also understood. The emperor can only rule the world through the method of who the emperor shares with the world, and it is impossible to truly rule the world by one person. Even Zhu Yuanzhang has compromises in many places.

I really thought that the emperor Chrysostom would follow his words.

That's impossible.

In this case, for the emperor, what is the difference between sharing the world with scholars and doctors, and sharing the world with great merchants?

We must fight a hundred battles every day, and we must both struggle and cooperate.

Therefore, the matter of changing the law is essentially a change of horses in the imperial court, and the scholar doctor is the horse, and Zhu Yuanzhang and the prince are essentially riders.

Seeing this, Fang Xiaoru could only say it more explicitly, and said: "Your Highness, the Son of Heaven, the Sect of Heaven, the Scholar Doctor, and the Concubines of the World, are right, respect and order, and the world is governed." What he said today and night, without saying the will of heaven, without saying that he is humble and humble, I don't know how to say that the Son of Heaven? ”

The prince's face changed slightly.

Although Fang Xiaoru's sentence is short, it is extremely vicious.

In He Xi's doctrine, he did not speak of providence, but used scientific knowledge to explain the celestial phenomena and the various changes in nature. In He Xi's doctrine, it is not said that everyone is equal. Each person has independent personal rights.

So backwards, there is no providence, how can it be said that the Son of Heaven, there is no dignity and humility, why can the royal family become the lord of the world, passed down from generation to generation, and the family is the world?

This is also Fang Xiaoru's helplessness.

Many of He Xi's theories are logically self-consistent, and many methods have been implemented, and they have also achieved very good results. He Xi is in Liaodong, Liaodong is strong, and now Liaodong supports a big war alone, there is no problem, where is Liaodong like before, even the prefecture and county can not support it.

He Xi was in Beijing, and he did a great job, and the flood did not affect He Xi. On the contrary, he let He Xi build the city of Beijing for disaster relief, and by the way, the new law was implemented.

Even if Fang Xiaoru regarded He Xi as an enemy, he had to admit that He Xi was Wang Zuozhicai. There is no other place in the world.

In terms of specific academics, Fang Xiaoru can't refute He Xi. It's not that He Xi's doctrine has no loopholes, because most of the world's doctrines are not perfect. What really makes a doctrine spread is not the loopholes of these doctrines, but the strengths of these doctrines.

Some people died, but not completely......
