Chapter 259: Zhu Yunwen who is in a hurry
He Qiu secretly looked at Zhu Yunwen, and was amazed in his heart, if he didn't know that Zhu Yunwen was targeting Zhu Di in private, and he looked very unpleasant to him, Zhu Yunwen's posture of a good child at the moment might really be able to blind him.
Joy and anger are invisible, how long has it been, Zhu Yunwen has progressed to this extent, should he be said to be talented?
Zhu Yuanzhang coughed twice and said.
"This is the change of law or the imperative of a new policy, even if you become the emperor, you can't go against this strategy!"
"Second, if the government receives too much revenue, you must spend it on the construction of water conservancy, road leveling, and other purposes for people's livelihood, and you must not use it for your own enjoyment."
"I also intend to write these into the Emperor's Ancestral Teachings, starting with you, all future monarchs should study these things carefully."
Zhu Yunwen agreed.
"What the emperor's grandfather said is very true, and my grandson thinks that these things must be written in the emperor's ancestral teachings, and all kings should remember them in the Ming Dynasty."
He Qiu hurriedly stood up and said.
"Taisun's words are slightly inappropriate, as the so-called generation has a generation's affairs, Your Majesty hopes to write these things into the Emperor's ancestral teachings, isn't it immutable."
"What's more important is to comprehend the spirit, if you carve a boat to ask for a sword, wouldn't it be against Your Majesty's original intention? Just like in the original Emperor Ming Zu Xun, it was also written that for the royal relatives who broke the law, except for the major crime of rebellion, there will be no pardon, and the rest will be dealt with lightly by the royal family. ”
"But now, this article is a little inappropriate, but the grandson needs to understand His Majesty's spirit of loving his relatives in it, instead of blindly guarding the ancestral teachings."
Speaking of the emperor's ancestral training, He Qiu also has some opinions, in Zhu Yuanzhang's book, many things set are out of date in later generations, but there are still many monarchs and ministers of the Ming Dynasty who hold on to this ancestral training, saying that 'the ancestral system cannot be abolished'.
On the one hand, the ministers said to the emperor that 'the ancestral system cannot be abolished' and cannot be switched on, while on the other hand, their own families and local relatives constantly participated in maritime trade smuggling activities.
However, the ancestral system of the Ming Dynasty was distorted into this way later, and it was inseparable from Zhu Di.
For the legitimacy of his rule, Zhu Di was the first person to blow the "Emperor Ming Zuxun" into the sky and hold on to it, and the two generations of emperors after him did the same, and this ancestral system has really become a tablet that cannot be easily moved.
Fortunately, the situation is different from history now, even if Zhu Di really started in the end, He Qiu also has the confidence to stop guarding this point.
When Zhu Yuanzhang heard He Qiu point out the problems in the Emperor's ancestral training, he didn't think it was angry, and said gently.
"He Qiu is right, how can I see the things in the world alone, not to mention that even if I can see it in a few decades, can I still see it in a hundred years?"
"There will definitely be a lot of anachronistic things in the future in the ancestral teachings, and the issue of the vassal king he just talked about is one of them, and it has only been more than ten years, so this article should be changed. But there are also some things that cannot be changed, and you must distinguish them. ”
Zhu Yunwen was secretly happy in his heart, he didn't expect He Qiu to take the initiative to raise the issue of the vassal king in front of Zhu Yuanzhang, does this mean that Zhu Di is soft? Or is it really so supportive of the policy of cutting the feudal domain, and he does not hesitate to break with Zhu Di?
Although Zhu Yunwen had a lot of doubts in his heart, he still remained silent on his face and asked hesitantly.
"But...... What can be changed and what can't be changed, how should this standard be determined? The grandson was a little confused. ”
Zhu Yuanzhang stroked his beard lightly and squinted his eyes.
"In addition to the problem of the clan of the vassal kings just mentioned, there is also the problem of the country that I said at the beginning."
"At the beginning, this kid told me that Japan has a lot of gold and silver minerals, and it must not be included in the non-expropriated country, and North Korea is the same, and I have also considered it in private."
"Especially now that you can make so much money just by trading with these two countries, I wonder if it would be better to integrate them directly into the Ming system."
"Therefore, this country that is not levy can be invalidated, as for the sea ban, although I did not put it into the Emperor's ancestral training, but now He Qiu's switch policy in the Beiping area has brought so many benefits, it can be seen that my decision was indeed a bit wrong at the beginning, and it also needs to be corrected."
Zhu Yuanzhang said several things in a scattered manner, and finally spoke.
"The most important thing is that I intend to write the matter of changing the law into the ancestral teachings and make it an unswerving policy!"
"Only by constantly changing the law can the Ming Dynasty be able to live for generations, and the children and grandchildren can live a good life!"
Zhu Yunwen's face immediately changed, and he knelt on the ground in panic and said.
"Imperial grandfather, no! There seems to be something wrong with changing the law, please ask the emperor's grandfather to take back his fate! ”
Zhu Yunwen thought that Zhu Yuanzhang only planned to toss the rest of his reign, but he didn't expect Zhu Yuanzhang to have such thoughts.
If Zhu Yuanzhang is really asked to write this article into the Emperor's ancestral teachings, wouldn't that force him to change the law? He couldn't even find a reason to oppose the change of the law, and if he wanted to stop changing the law at that time, I am afraid that some inexplicable courtiers would take out the Emperor Ming's ancestral teachings, saying that he had violated the will of the Taizu.
Zhu Yuanzhang frowned, looked at Zhu Yunwen and said.
"What else do you have to say now?"
Zhu Yunwen gave the Lu family to him now, don't provoke Zhu Yuanzhang's teachings and forget about it, he definitely can't bear the situation that he also needs to change the law later.
Zhu Yunwen gritted his teeth and said.
"Emperor Grandfather Mingjian, the so-called change of the law, this word is not good, not to mention that if it is stipulated in the ancestral teachings that future generations must change the law in each generation, then how can we talk about filial piety? When the policy of the fathers arrives, it is overturned by the children and grandchildren. ”
"What's more, the emperor's grandfather is the founding ancestor, if he changes the law, the first one becomes the emperor's grandfather's law, so what's the point of this emperor's ancestral teachings?"
Zhu Yuanzhang was noncommittal, looked at He Qiu and said.
"You're also half of his teacher, can you explain it to him?"
He Qiu nodded and said to Zhu Yunwen.
"Your Royal Highness, do you know how the emperors of the former Han Dynasty are different?"
Zhu Yunwen shook his head blankly, he couldn't figure out what He Qiu was going to say.
He Qiu then said.
"Every emperor of the former Han Dynasty always has to put forward some of his own policies, reform some of the policies of the previous emperor, Emperor Wen abolished the ban on mountains, forests and ponds, Emperor Jing cut the domain, and Emperor Wu pushed the order and salt and iron official camps, so the former Han Dynasty was strong for a while, and the reputation was passed down to future generations."
"Now, doesn't His Royal Highness Taisun have the confidence that he can do better than His Majesty and change His Majesty's policy?"
Zhu Yunwen couldn't answer, of course he had plans to change Zhu Yuanzhang's policy, but when it came to avoiding Zhu Yuanzhang to do better, he really didn't have the confidence.
But if he wants him to stand up and support He Qiu's statement, he can't do it, Zhu Yunwen doesn't approve of changing the law in his heart, he hopes that there will be no major events in the DPRK.
