Chapter 368: System Rules Honorable and Rogue
Wang Jing wanted to let the nobles go to the Northland grassland, but none of these nobles and nobles were willing.
Most of these nobles have participated in the war in the north, and they know the situation in the northern grasslands, and no one wants to let go of the wealth of the Central Plains and go to the north to herd sheep and suffer from the cold.
Wang Jing wanted to let those nobles go to the grassland, divide the grassland marquis, and even those who were willing to go to the grassland could be promoted to two levels of titles, and the titles would not be reduced for three generations.
But those nobles were not moved at all, and would rather serve as a lord in the Central Plains than a few hundred households in the Central Plains, rather than go to the grassland to be a county marquis.
Seeing this situation, Wang Jing was furious in his heart and prepared to forcibly relocate some nobles to the grassland. Just as he was about to do this, his younger brother Wang Hao stopped him.
"Family master, these nobles are not guilty, they don't want to migrate, and now you are asking them to migrate to the Northland Grassland, it is indeed difficult for some strong people."
"How can you be so greedy for pleasure in the service of your country?" Wang Jing said dissatisfied.
Wang Hao smiled bitterly and said, "Brother, you can't expect these nobles to be like family members. ”
Since Zijue, the Wang family has a different family style from other families in this world, whether it is politics or issues for the people of Zhuxia.
The Wang clan will open up the Western Regions and the Northland grasslands for the prosperity of Zhuxia, but there are not many others willing to do so, so the royal family has been promoting these people and rewarding them.
Reward from both honor and material, if there is only material reward, it will only cultivate a group of mercenary people, if you only talk about honor, in the end this honor will become a joke. So honors and material rewards are a must.
"Moreover, you now force these nobles to go to the Northlands, and even if they finally agree to go because of your power, they will still have resentment in their hearts.
When the time comes, these noble feudal kingdoms are in the north, and the sky is high and the emperor is far away, as long as they are a little half-hearted, or even say that as long as they do not perform their duties seriously, your plan will not achieve the desired effect. ”
Hearing this, most of the anger in Wang Jing's heart disappeared. Yes, he can't force others to have the same moral standards as his family.
In the Xianhuai Kingdom, among the worlds depicted by the hundreds of schools of thought, the world depicted by Confucianism was the favorite of the Wang family, but why did they choose Confucianism instead of Legalism?
Almost everyone thinks that Wang chose Legalism because his ancestor Zijue was the founder of Legalism, but in fact this is only one of the factors, and it is not the main factor.
They don't choose Confucianism because they know that the moral bottom line required by Confucianism is too high. So high that even after a thousand years, they don't see a glimmer of hope.
Compared with the high moral requirements of Confucianism, the moral requirements of Legalism are much lower, and coupled with the cooperation of the law, it is easier to achieve than the world depicted by Confucianism.
Coupled with the blessing of the law, although the world depicted by Legalism is far inferior to Confucianism, it is the easiest to achieve, and at the same time, the world depicted by Legalism is also reasonable and fair in comparison.
This is the reason why the Wang family chose the Legalists.
After all, compared to Legalism, whether it is Confucianism, Taoism or other schools, Legalism is the easiest to achieve, and at the same time relatively fair.
"Those nobles don't want to go to the Northland Grassland, they don't want to divide the grassland, what are they going to do now, Brother Hao has a way?" Wang Jing asked.
"The head of the family, the best way is to send the children of the family to the Northland Grassland, knight the children of the family, and let them replace the princes to guard the Northland Grassland for generations."
"However, the number of descendants of the family is limited, and the grasslands of the Northland are vast, so at least twenty descendants are needed to divide the seal, and if the children of the family are divided, they need to send the responding Yu Linwei and various resources to support, which is extremely expensive."
There are now more than 1,000 descendants of the Wang family within five generations, of which one-third are women, one-quarter are children, and about 200 people are really adults who can take charge of themselves.
These people now have their own affairs, and the dispatch of twenty people to the Northland Grassland at once is also very stressful for the Wang family.
At that time, the Wang family also wanted to vigorously develop the descendants and increase the number of descendants through continuous childbirth, but after the ancestors worked hard to increase the number of descendants, the family soon found that something was wrong.
Everyone in the Wang family has a premonition in their hearts that if they continue to give birth, the family heritage will be reduced. In fact, this is Zijue reminding his descendants.
Because every descendant will receive the effect of the ancestral blessing when he is born, so for every additional descendant, Zijue needs to pay more luck value.
If the number of heirs increases, the required Qi Luck will also continue to increase, and now the number of Wang's descendants needs two thousand Qi Luck to be blessed, and if the number of Wang's descendants increases, it will need to consume five thousand Qi Luck every year.
It is clear that this is a restriction of the system on him. Otherwise, Zijue can make the family continue to multiply and expand its scale, and it won't take many years for the number of descendants to reach an extremely staggering number.
At that time, Zijue can forcibly clear the customs with the number of heirs. Naturally, the system does not leave this kind of loophole, so the higher the population, the higher the luck you need to maintain, which is to let you find a balance on your own.
Now Daqian was established by the Wang family, so every year Zijue will receive a fortune value, and through the development of heirs in these later generations, this fortune value has now increased to about 21,000.
Daqian dominates the world, Zijue will get 10,000 luck every year, and the development of the territory will give 300 to 2,000 luck values according to the size of the territory, population, economy, belonging, etc., to build a famous historical and cultural city, as long as the city exists, and in the hands of the Daqian, you can get 100 to 300. There will also be compilations of classics, such as "The Hundred Schools of Thought".
In addition to these increases, there is also the consumption of qi luck every year, and now after deducting these reduced qi luck, Zi Jue can now obtain about fifteen thousand qi luck per year.
It seems like a lot, but using the Heavenly Mandate Artifact once will cost a minimum of 1,000 Qi luck. If it's more advanced, it's three or five thousand. In addition, Zijue still has to prepare for the future, and he must leave enough luck.
Even if the children of the Wang family will not give birth in large numbers, in a few decades, the population will exceed 1,000, and the consumption of luck will be 5,000 at that time, and of course, the upper limit of the number of descendants will also be increased to 3,000.
Regarding Wang Hao's method of dividing the descendants of his descendants to the Northland grassland, Wang Jing thought about it for a while but still did not agree. So he asked, "Is there any other way besides this method?" ”
"Yes!" Wang Hao continued: "If you don't use the children of the clan to go out of the town and grassland, then you can only rely on the liuguan. ”
Wang Jing frowned slightly: "If you send a liuguan out of the grassland, I'm afraid that I won't be able to do what I want." ”
"Every three years, you can choose some of these people to serve as Mobei grassland officials, as county officials, if the governance is good, then you have the right to be promoted, if you don't perform well, you will be demoted."
"You can tell the scholars directly and let them choose. At the same time, in order to prevent some people from wanting to return to the Central Plains and deliberately doing wrong things to be demoted, all degraded officials are not allowed to be promoted for five years, and after five years, they will be promoted according to their merits. ”
"If you do well, you can be promoted one more level out of the ordinary, and you can also get priority promotion in the future." Wang Hao briefly described his method.
Wang Jing nodded slowly, indicating that it was acceptable.
There are still imperfections in this approach, but it is acceptable.
The power to send Officers will also be reduced accordingly, and the number of Officers will be increased. Sending two more clan descendants to the grasslands to serve as official overseers would solve most of the problems by then.
Just when Wang Jing was discussing with the clan, Xu Zhan, Marquis of Wucheng, came to ask for a meeting. Xu Zhan, Marquis of Wucheng, is the heir of Marquis Wucheng, the founder of the Great Qian.
The Xu family has always been the closest branch of the Wang family in the office, when he was named the Marquis of Wucheng, the heirs of the family have always been very low-key, and now Xu Zhan is the fourth generation of Marquis Wucheng.
Although the Xu family of Wucheng Marquis has been low-key over the years, they have always been a pivotal force in the court.
Xu Zhan entered the main hall, bowed and saluted: "Your Majesty, when the first emperor was played, he praised the ancestors as the pillars of the country, followed His Majesty the first emperor to sweep Liuhe, and ruled the world, the ministers were vulgar and did not dare to compare with the ancestors, but the ministers knew that the burden given by the king, the courtiers should complete it."
The trust given by the king, the courtiers cannot fail it.
Although the minister does not have the ability of the ancestors, he is also willing to contribute to His Majesty and do his best to do things for His Majesty, so as to repay His Majesty's grace.
Your Majesty needs someone to guard the grassland in the north, although the minister is not talented, but he is willing to go out of the party to guard the grassland, if there is chaos in the grassland, he will step on the corpse of the minister first!
The minister is willing to repay with death! ”
Xu Zhan said loudly.
Hearing this, Wang Jing was quite moved and said, "Marquis Wucheng is really a loyal minister!" A courtier like you is the pillar of my great talent, the pillar of the pillar, if everyone is like this, how can there be so many things in this world? ”
Immediately, Wang Jing thought of the other nobles, and couldn't help but say: "Look at those nobles again, one by one they are afraid to go to Mobei and covet the wealth of the Central Plains, are these people worthy of the ancestors who overcame obstacles to establish the Great Cadre back then?" ”
"Be presumptuous!"
Wang Jing was angry from the bottom of his heart, and even gritted his teeth when he said it, the following people looked at their noses and ears, and did not make any reaction, they could only listen to this kind of thing, but they could not say it, if they said it, they would offend all the nobles of the world.
After losing his temper for a while, Wang Jing immediately said: "Since Marquis Wu Cheng is willing to share his worries for me, then he will first serve as the protector of the capital of Zhenbei!" ”
