Chapter 199 Lin Che commented sharply, the official gentry and the people contradicted

"Can Dahan and Datang do it, and can Liang Song do it?"

"The Han people of the Two Song Dynasty are not like the Han people, they are only submissive, they seek perfection from the outside world, and blindly pay tribute to survive, so why should the barbarians respect you!"

"You can see the difference when you compare the two."

Lin Che glanced at Zhu Yuanzhang, who was sitting precariously, and continued:

"We must first clarify the relationship between the state and the people, and we must not think that the two are a relationship of support."

"It is not right for the people to support the state, or for the state to support the people, and the outcome of such an offering will be very tragic."

"They complement each other, and being one is the way to govern the country."

"Your Majesty must understand one thing, that is, no matter what, you can't let those officials and gentry lie on the common people and suck blood!"

"Sometimes even the court can suffer a loss, but the people can't be allowed to suffer."

"That's how simple it is."

Hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang fell into deep thought, and the prince Zhu Biao next to him also put down his pen and frowned.

As rulers, they also know something about maintaining their ruling class, the gentry, who will do anything for fame and fortune, and dare to do anything once they are in a hurry.

Just like Lord Shoufu said in the previous story, they will be their officials when they are officials, so it doesn't matter if your surname is Zhu or what is your surname on the dragon chair?

Since these people can't get benefits from the emperor, they can only start with the common people.

Anyway, when they become officials, of course they have to make some benefits, and who will be officials if they don't have benefits.

That's for sure!

With that in mind.

Zhu Yuanzhang raised his head suddenly, his mind was unusually sober:

"Sir is right!"

"We get it!"

"What Mr. Lin wants to tell us is that the contradictions in the court cannot be expanded downwards and evolve into contradictions between the gentry and the people."

"In the court, the emperor may be merciful to the gentry, but these gentry will never be merciful to the common people!"

"Those ordinary people who only know that they are facing the loess with their backs to the sky and working in the fields, where are the opponents of those officials and gentry whose intestines are twisted and twisted!"

"Once the contradiction between the two occurs, it will affect the country."

"The contradiction between the gentry and the people was eventually transferred to the contradiction between the court and the people, and in the end, the resentment of the people who suffered was transferred to the emperor and the court, and the people's hearts were lost, and the Ming Dynasty was in danger!"

"When the time comes, the people will have a conflict with the imperial court, and those dog officials and gentry will be turtles with shrunken heads, and the only one who will be hit will be the emperor."

"Transferring contradictions, transferring risks, it's so poisonous!"

Hearing that Zhu Yuanzhang can not only understand his own meaning, but also analyze it.

He is worthy of being the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty and one of the most famous founding monarchs in history.

Although limited by history, it has to be said that he was the leader of that era, more than hundreds of times stronger than ordinary people.

Look at the problem thoroughly, and be able to understand it at one point.

"You're right!"

"Your Majesty can understand what I mean, and you must know that your series of reforms are a bit too hasty, only considering local interests, not the overall situation."

"Your Majesty is the founder of the country, and the country that has been captured from thousands of troops and horses and battles, of course, will treat all objects that are not conducive to the stability of the imperial court, but it does not mean that your descendants, the next generation, and the next generation of emperors can be as iron-blooded as Your Majesty."

"In this way, it doesn't matter who this group of smart officials and gentry is the emperor, as long as whoever is the emperor can ensure their glory and wealth, he will become the emperor's courtier."

"Once the emperor is in a hurry with these people, who can guarantee that they will do something, and it is possible to take refuge in the Northern Yuan!"

Lin Che picked up the wine glass that Zhu Fan had poured and said in a calm tone:

"It's not a good way to treat the gentry too rigidly or too softly, Your Majesty can use a blunt knife to slowly cut the flesh, so that they feel pain, but there is no bloodshed."

"Your Majesty is a famous founding monarch, but he is also a famous murderous emperor in history, he is too harsh to his subordinates, just is rigid, but he doesn't know that rigidity and softness are combined, and the lack of tolerance is a big deficiency of His Majesty!"

Facing Lin Che's sharp comments, Zhu Yuanzhang sat there thoughtfully, and finally nodded.

Lin Che's words were sharp, not leaving him the slightest face as an emperor, but you have to say that Lin Che's words are all facts.

He knows better than anyone about his own problems, these are the tough style he has cultivated in his military career, and it has been decades, and it is not so easy to change it.

What's more, he felt that there was nothing wrong with him doing this, and it could even be said that he had succeeded in one aspect.

He didn't want to change that.

Seeing that Zhu Yuanzhang didn't speak for a long time, Lin Che didn't want to embarrass him, after all, he was a founding emperor, and he still had to give this face.

"Alas!"

Lin Che glanced at Zhu Fan, who was sitting next to him, and listened to Zhu Fan and Nunu mouth:

"Don't be confused, tell your father, I taught you before, what it means to be a teacher."

"Huh?"

After listening to Lin Che's words, Zhu Fan scratched his head and asked himself to give a lecture to his father, isn't it a joke? I still don't understand this.

"Ah what? Pick up what you know and say, don't ink! ”

Lin Che held the wine glass and waved his hand at Zhu Zhang, who had a bitter gourd face, without doubt:

"Say!"

"You wouldn't say you didn't understand such a simple word, would you? I've been studying with us for so long, how can we accept a student like you, I can't tell it, don't come to the class in the future, we can't afford to lose this person. ”

Hearing this, Zhu Fan smiled bitterly, laughing was more ugly than crying, he knew that he had to say, Mr. did what he said, and if he didn't let himself come to the class, it would be a big loss.

Zhu Fan took a deep breath and lowered his head, not daring to talk; Daddy looks at each other:

"Uh..."

"The meaning of the siege of the teacher... It is about the enemy surrounded by a large army, but a gap must be left so as to leave a glimmer of hope for the enemy to escape..."

"Extension means that you can't block everyone's road, if you block everyone's road, people will see that there is no hope of survival, and they will inevitably break the boat with you, which is equivalent to blocking your own road."

"The way of a general is like this, and the way of being an official is also like this!"

The words fell!

Syllable!

Lin Che put down his wine glass and clapped his hands in encouragement.

"That's a good point!"

"The way of being a king is also the same truth."

"Everything changes!"

As he spoke, Lin Che looked at Zhu Yuanzhang and said with a smile:

"I won't repeat the knowledge I talked about before, just go back and let His Royal Highness King Qin teach His Majesty."

Zhu Yuanzhang: "..."

Seeing this, the crown prince Zhu Biao looked at Zhu Fan and couldn't laugh a little, can he still godfather the emperor at the level of the second brother, is this okay?

This Mr. Lin doesn't give his father face at all!

For a moment, the room fell silent.

"Mr. Lin, don't embarrass our second child, can you teach us at his level?"

Zhu Yuanzhang's face was not good-looking, he stood up and explained:

"It's not that we don't understand what you're saying!"

"The problem is that we have some problems, and we can't get rid of them all at once!"

"Also, if you let our second child teach me, can he teach us? The king is not the king, the minister is not the minister, the father is not the father, and the son is not the son! ”

"Isn't that a mess?"
