After Wang Meng took the Yan Kingdom, he did not immediately return to the court, but chose to guard the Yan land, select the virtuous and the able, remove the old and the new, punish the evil and eliminate the evil, stabilize the people's hearts, develop production, and restore the people's strength.

Under Wang Meng's series of measures, the people of the six states in the old land of Yan were like drought seedlings in the rain, rejoicing.

Generally speaking, such behavior of courtiers is easy to be scupled by the monarch, but Wang Meng has no such worries at all, and is assured to boldly implement his various decrees.

This time, he went east and easily captured the entire territory of Yan Kingdom, and the only thing that worried Wang Meng was that his own monarch was a little too big.

Should he not be at ease and boldly appoint the people of Yan Kingdom, right?

Defeat others first, and then be honest with others, hoping that others can use them for themselves and create a great cause together - this kind of thing is Fu Jian's favorite thing to do.

As long as the surrendered person, or the defeated person is willing to serve Fu Jian, they can often be trusted and thus reused.

This had happened a few times before, and Wang Meng didn't want it to happen again.

But......

In recent days, it can be seen with the naked eye that Fu Jian has changed very much.

His style is completely different from the previous one, and his attitude towards the courtiers is no longer even courteous, but directly insulting, and even beating, and he also equipped himself with a 'virtue' sword, if anyone dares to disobey, then use this virtue to convince people.

For Wang Meng, such a change is undoubtedly very good, Fu Jian is no longer so pedantic, although there are no taboos, but he still adheres to his bottom line, has not become blindly violent, still dedicated to the people, looking forward to the realization of the legendary world of Datong, so that the world will be completely peaceful.

This was Fu Jian's wish at the beginning.

If it weren't for that, Wang Meng even wondered if his monarch had changed.

……

The capital of Qin, Taixue.

Su Che came here and personally lectured to all the students.

The theme of his lecture was simple - class struggle!

Why is it that from ancient times to the present, dynasties continue to fall, as if there is a cycle, repeated, and constantly reincarnated?

Su Che gave an answer.

Because the essence of all this is that the poor get poorer and the rich get richer, and people are naturally divided into noble and poor, and are divided into two classes, and these two classes are naturally opposed, and the contradictions will become bigger and bigger, more and more, until they are inevitable.

Poor people cannot get rid of the root of their poverty throughout their lives, because they cannot work directly for themselves.

After becoming a hired farmer, no matter how hard he tried, even if he worked hard to farm, he could only make the landlord richer, and it was impossible for him to accumulate wealth and change his fate.

But in order to live and eat a bite of food, all the people at the bottom had to work hard to farm, and they did not have any choice.

When this contradiction has developed to the extreme, there are more and more poor people, and in the event of a natural disaster, these poor people who have no ability to resist risks can only leave their homes and even rebel.

This class antagonism is the root of the collapse of the dynasty.

The essence of the monarch is the lord of the world, because of the great selfishness, so the great duke.

But if a monarch is far away from the people at the bottom and does not know the suffering of the people, then no matter what policy the monarch makes, it is meaningless.

Under Su Che's preaching, those students were stunned one by one at this moment...... They never dreamed that Su Che would tell them this!

The essence of the fall of the dynasty!

Powerful officials, landlords and gentry, as well as the big families, this is the reason for the prosperity of the dynasty, and it is also the root of the collapse of the dynasty!!

As long as there is human nature, it will inevitably lead to the corruption of power.

As long as there are profits to be made, it is also inevitable that the landlords, gentry, and big families will wantonly annex land, develop their own businesses, collude with officials and businessmen, steal national interests, and oppress the people at the bottom.

Su Che was clear.

In order to avoid the root of all this, many monarchs in successive dynasties have taken various measures.

For example, Liu Bang's mausoleum system constantly migrated and strengthened to prevent them from harming the people.

Another example is Zhu Yuanzhang's many measures, he formulated a strict code system to control officials and rectify the rule of officials.

Almost harsh penalties were used to regulate the conduct of officials.

At the same time, the institutions directly under the imperial power: Dongchang and Jinyiwei came into being.

This allowed the monarch's control over officials to be not only bound by written provisions, but also elevated to the level of physical close monitoring.

In addition, Zhu Yuanzhang also imitated the system of Zhou Gong's "Great Message", published Ming's "Great Message", promulgated it to the world, and warned his subjects.

The crimes listed in the "Great Message" can be divided into several parts: officials, powerful people, common people and military officials.

Officials who neglect their duties, indiscriminately appoint officials, take bribes, entrap the people, embezzle money and grain, and evade food shortages are all punished with serious crimes.

Among them, the punishment of corruption accounts for about half of all crimes.

It is written in the "Great Message":

dismissal of official property, release of the rich and poor, the clan will be punished; Those who take bribes and say too much money will be put to death; Those who steal and sell grain in the warehouse, tattoo their faces, pick up tendons and go to their knees, and still keep their warehouses to guard their supports; The post man is a postman and wears a heavy flail in front of the post.

There are hundreds of people who are listed in the "Great Message", such as Ling Chi, the head of the clan, and the clan punishment, and the number of people who have abandoned the city is less than 10,000. The criminal law is extremely harsh, exceeding the sentencing standard of the "Da Ming Law", and many of those who have been punished by the clan, Ling Chi, and beheaded are mostly ordinary offenders.

Once the people of the Ming Dynasty were oppressed and oppressed by the officials, they could even arrest the officials, and then go to Beijing to complain with the "Great Message" in hand.

And the officials who dare to stop the people will be severely punished.

Zhu Yuanzhang said: "His chief officials, chieftains, and all other people, if they dare to obstruct them, their families will be punished." ”

The meaning is already very straightforward, the local officials dare to prevent the people from exposing and arresting the officials who harm the people, and they will all be punished and exterminated!

Since then, in the early years of the Ming Dynasty, there have been many incidents of ordinary people arresting corrupt officials.

But the question is......

Even so.

As soon as Zhu Yuanzhang died, the once glorious "Great Message" was not much different from waste paper, and the classes of officials, landlords and ordinary people began to oppose each other again.

In Su Che's view, the essence of this series is the corrosion of rights and the drive of interests.

The elite class, the landlord class, and the clan class have completely separated themselves from the people at the bottom.

So.

The class struggle can never be stopped!

Such a struggle is naturally not conducive to maintaining stability and rule, and it is easy for a dynasty to fall, and as a ruler, such a situation will never be allowed.

Most rulers will choose to "share the world with scholars"!

In that year, Song Shenzong summoned the ministers Wang Anshi and Wen Yanbo to discuss the change of the law in the palace of senior administration.

Wen Yanbo, the patriarch of the Three Dynasties and the privy envoy, said: "The legal system set by the ancestors is here, and there is no need to change it, so as not to lose the hearts of the people." ”

Shenzong said: "If you change the law, it will indeed be unhappy for the scholars, but it will not be inconvenient for the people." ”

Wen Yanbo replied: "Your Majesty, you are ruling the world together with the scholars and doctors, not the people!" ”

When Shenzong heard such half-threatening words, he did not refute them, but said euphemistically: "Not all scholars and doctors think that it is not good to change the law, but there are still people who think that the law should be changed. ”

Obviously, in Shenzong's view, he recognized the theory of "ruling the world with scholars".

After all.

In terms of interests, the emperor naturally ran the country together with the dominant landlord class.

In terms of talent, officials who have been professionally selected are also more suitable to run the country with the emperor.

Such are the limitations of the times.

The people at the bottom are indeed very important, and they may put those frivolous people above the scholar class, such a monarch is rare in ancient and modern times.

At the end of the lecture, Su Che didn't even care and said: "If after I die, the heavens and the earth change color, then tear it down and start over!" ”

"If you want to achieve the great harmony of the world, it is never the education of a saint, but the struggle, the endless struggle! So that landlords, families, clans, nobles, officials, can not do whatever they want, again and again, one day, can reach the ultimate goal! ”

"At that time, the world could be completely unified!"

"The rule of the prosperous era is only for a while, and the rule of Datong is precious for a thousand years!"

Su Che's exuberant lecture made all the students enthusiastic, even those students from the noble clan were all looking like they were going to betray their original class at this moment.

And those teachers and officials who are too learned have a hellish expression, if it is not the Great Qin Monarch who is lecturing, then they will definitely report to the officials to arrest this person and send him to the prison!

Because of these words, it is really a great rebellion to the extreme!

Isn't this advocating rebellion?

It's crazy!

What's even crazier is that the one who is talking is the king of Great Qin!!

Many Taixue teachers couldn't help but smile bitterly, and thought helplessly: "Your Majesty...... Why did you rebel? ”

so

This is a great contradiction.

This is the spark of change in the future.

It was planted by Su Che.

As for those former Yan nobles, they were all demoted to commoners by Su Che, and Su Che had no intention of courtesy at all.

No matter how talented they are, as long as they are not loyal enough, it is all empty talk.

Su Che naturally couldn't repeat the mistakes of the past.

With the former swallow was extinguished.

The next target is the former Ryo and Daikoku.

As soon as these two countries were destroyed, Great Qin could be regarded as completely realizing the unification of the north.

There is only one goal in the future, and that is the Jin Kingdom in the south.

Although the Jin Kingdom is located in the south of the Yangtze River, as a nominal Chinese orthodoxy, and the upper and lower levels are peaceful, it is quite difficult.

Therefore, Su Che did not rush to fight abroad, but began to govern the country.

Su Che first rectified the subdued nobles of Xianbei and Xiqiang.

They are wolf ambitions after all.

In another world, Fu Jian believes that with his personal charm, he can make them surrender, as long as he pours out his heart and lungs to them, he can make them dig out his heart and lungs for themselves.

But Su Che understood that these people couldn't continue to stay, so he killed them all.

Anyway, as invaders, their hands are more or less stained with the blood of Han people, and it is justified to kill them, and there is no problem.

Subsequently, Su Che began to issue an edict on Hu Tuien, and at the same time began to carry out ethnic integration, allowing intermarriage between various ethnic groups, and treating each ethnic group equally.

In addition, of course, the most important thing is to promote education, recuperate with the people, attach importance to the rule of officials, reclaim wasteland, reduce or reduce taxes, as for the necessary conscription, Su Che did not stop, but chose the way of work for relief.

For most ordinary peasants, there is not much to do in their spare time, and it is better to give them wages or food and let them participate in forced labor than to keep them at home.

This kind of conscription not only does not increase the burden on the people, but even lightens their burden, and is welcomed by many peasants.

Of course, there are exceptions, that is, officials will withhold grain, embezzle wages, and regard this forced labor as an obligation, and forcibly distribute it to the peasants.

Concealment and deception, such behavior is simply not too common.

Where there are interests, there will be people who will have the courage to do it.

This is an inevitable scenario.

Su Che knew this, so he sent spies to explore the situation of the levy in various places, as long as the embezzler was caught, he would directly raid the family and exterminate the family, and hyped that this behavior was the official's own behavior, once discovered, the people could directly arrest the official and file a complaint, as long as it was true, there would be a reward!

And if the officials dare to stop it, all the officials who block it will all raid their homes and exterminate their families!

Such a "tyranny" was naturally slandered by countless officials.

But few dared to protest.

Because Su Che really copied a lot of homes and wiped out a lot of clans.

Although Su Che also understands that such behavior can only be cured for a while, and it is impossible to cure it at all.

After a few years, forced labor will still be compulsory, and the people will still be oppressed.

But the question is......

So what?

If you know that there is no cure, do you not do it?

Su Che didn't care what the final result was, he just needed the current result to be good, and that would be enough!

With the rule of the officials, the people gradually lived and worked in peace and contentment, coupled with the implementation of Hu Tuien, the threat of the Hu people disappeared, and Su Che also knew the truth that it was better to block than to sparse, so he strengthened the trade between the Central Plains and the grassland, and at the same time opened up the land on a large scale, paid attention to the cultivation of grain, and prevented the emergence of famine.

There will be famine in the Central Plains, and there will be famine in the grasslands.

Nomads are far more dependent on nature and climate than they are on agrarian civilizations.

In the event of a natural disaster, the Hu people's choice was either to go south and plunder the Central Plains, or to live in pursuit of water and grass.

For nomads, both property and lifestyle are "alive", which is both an advantage and a difficulty for their survival.

Once they "stop" peacefully, it means death.

Su Che attaches great importance to the Central Plains, and naturally also attaches importance to the grasslands, in addition to the trade with the Hu people, Su Che also ordered various tribes to produce strong men, organize armies, and use them to invade foreign countries and become "God's whip" to whip other countries......

After the combination of the Central Plains and the grassland, with the Hu army with backup, the combat effectiveness more than doubled.

This directly formed an overwhelming strength, and also solved the supply problem of grassland to a certain extent.

In this way, to a certain extent, it has become a positive cycle.

With the great prosperity of the Central Plains, the national strength was strong to the extreme, and the Eastern Jin Dynasty in the south was no longer an opponent, and it was easily solved.

After all, since ancient times, the Central Plains in the north has an overwhelming advantage over the forces in the south.

So far, Su Che can be regarded as having completed his original goal, dominating the world, merging the six into one family, and treating Yidi as a child.

When this goal is accomplished.

Su Che began to cultivate his own martial arts.

Thirty years later.

Su Che closed his eyes.

[End of Interference]

Opening his eyes again, Su Che looked at the contents of the book.

In the Book of Covenant, the words are slowly evolving.

[Under your rule, the world has briefly realized the prosperity of Datong. 】

[Mixed six into one family, regard Yidi as a child. 】

You have accomplished your original goal. 】

[The Hu army you organized on the grassland is a disaster-like existence for the surrounding countries. 】

[However, you forcibly unified the six clans, killed the big clans, wantonly killed corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and exterminated countless landlords and inferior gentry, leaving black spots on your wise and martial achievements. 】

[What about sin in contemporary times, with countless killings? 】

[You have become the Emperor of Great Qin. 】

[After your death, some people compare your merits to the First Emperor. 】

[The merits of the First Emperor are beyond reproach, and your merits cannot be erased! 】

[...... many years later]

[When your descendants are tyrannical and become tyrants, when corrupt officials and corrupt officials are rampant and domineering, when the signs of the great family resurgence, when land annexation becomes serious again. 】

[Everything in the world is gradually moving away from the world of Datong that you started with. 】

[At this time, the fire you planted and the words you promised at the beginning were found out of the dusty history books. 】

[If after I die, the heavens and the earth change color, then tear it down and start over!] 】

[If you want to achieve the great harmony of the world, it is never the education of a saint, but a struggle, an endless struggle! So that landlords, families, clans, nobles, officials, can not do whatever they want, again and again, one day, can reach the ultimate goal! 】

[On this day, there was a dragon slayer who followed your words, he stood up, he raised his arms and shouted, responded with a hundred calls, took advantage of the situation, and led countless low-level farmers to slaughter the evil dragon of Daqin together. 】

[The boy became the founder of the country. 】

[The world is rejuvenating! 】

[Your existence has influenced future generations for countless years, and you have been called the greatest emperor by countless descendants! 】

[Really, the Emperor of the Ages! 】

After seeing this ending, Su Che suddenly noticed something and hurriedly raised his head.

Not far away, a young man wearing a Diren costume walked over with a smile: "It really made you realize the short-term world harmony, it's really amazing." ”

"Mixed six into one, there are no more Hu people in the world, but it makes the surrounding countries suffer......"

The boy is none other than Fu Jian.

Su Che was just about to say something, but Fu Jian pointed to the Book of Covenant and said, "Let's take a look at the final simulation summary." ”

In the Book of Covenant, the text is still evolving.

That's the final summary.

[Simulation Summary]

[When you came to this world, you told all your ideas to your most loyal courtier, Wang Meng. 】

[Under your union, Pingyan Dingjin, such as picking grass mustard, the Central Plains is pacified, and the world is unified......]

[Since then, you have killed countless corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and killed countless clans that have plagued the locality. 】

[Your tyranny and your unrighteousness have made countless people hate it. 】

[Let hundreds of people sing praises for you!] 】

[The glory of the Great Qin Empire shines through the ages. 】

[Even after countless years, there are still people who inherit your will......]

[Comprehensive evaluation: An emperor through the ages, a king of the world! ] 】
