Chapter 4 Yao Guangxiao also wants to cut the domain?!
Worship the Buddha or destroy the Buddha,
For a person like Zhu Xiongying, it is just a means.
It is not mixed with any personal emotions and has nothing to do with faith.
It's just purely for the sake of the future of the Ming Dynasty.
Destroy the Buddha, it is best.
But Yao Guangxiao must be different from Zhu Xiongying,
He stayed in the temple for I don't know how long,
All day long with monks, wooden fish, vegetarian as a companion,
It is no exaggeration to say that
Buddhism has become an inseparable part of his body.
But Yao Guangxiao came to the sentence lightly,
Destroy the Buddha.
It's a little too scary.
Zhu Xiongying looked at Yao Guangxiao's eyes, and there was more indescribable meaning,
Yao Guangxiao turned a deaf ear,
looked at Zhu Xiongying with a smile,
"What does Your Highness think of Taoism?"
Zhu Xiongying said lightly,
"You can use it, but you can't do it."
Yao Guangxiao glanced at Zhu Xiongying deeply.
What do you mean by this?
The Taoist mind is pure and self-sufficient.
The pursuit is the embodiment of personal value.
But Taoism is not suitable for the governance of feudal dynasties at all,
Everyone is pure and inactive, and they have gone to cultivate,
Who farms?
but
Taoist techniques, but they can be used.
For example, after Liu Bang, the ancestor of Han Gao, tossed around, he found that it was better to rule by doing nothing.
This is borrowing from Taoism.
After Yao Guangxiao's temptation,
He found that Zhu Xiongying completely rejected Buddhism and could choose Taoism.
His Highness in front of him obviously has his own ideas,
so
I should also mention Zhu Xiongying's evaluation in my heart.
The palace coup d'Γ©tat, the three dragons seized the throne,
It's not like Yao Guangxiao thinks, it's His Majesty who controls everything behind his back.
After contact with Zhu Xiongying,
Yao Guangxiao is convinced,
Zhu Xiongying played a great role in it, and it is even possible to say,
It's Zhu Xiongying who is leading His Majesty away!
Yao Guangxiao lowered his head,
Silent for a moment,
Raising his head, he asked,
"Your Highness, how is the Legalist?"
Zhu Xiongying said with a smile,
"Yes.
But that's not how it works. β
Yao Guangxiao's eyes slowly widened when he heard this, and his white eyes looked particularly terrifying!
Zhu Xiongying's answer completely exceeded Yao Guangxiao's expectations.
Legalism has only one usage in the feudal dynasty from ancient times to the present,
High-pressure management of the combination of law, technique and potential.
Maybe there is a benevolent lord with such a lenient punishment as Emperor Wen of Han,
But definitely in the minority.
moreover
If you make a mistake, Emperor Wen of Han will also clean you up.
It's just that a lot of corporal punishment has been eliminated, and you are no longer abused.
Yao Guangxiao's body couldn't help but lean forward,
"The poor monk is willing to listen to him."
Zhu Xiongying said directly,
"Our law is not serious."
Hiss!!!!
Yao Guangxiao gasped when he heard this!!
looked at Zhu Xiongying with frightened eyes!!
He instantly understood what Zhu Xiongying meant,
merely
It's a crazy idea!!
Why is the law not serious,
It's not that the law isn't strict.
Judging from the silk unearthed in the Qin and Han dynasties,
The ancient legal texts have been extremely detailed,
And the subsequent feudal dynasties will naturally not shrink more and more,
But no matter how detailed the legal provisions are,
Still not serious.
Because there are people who can interpret the law at will,
He is the one who is above the law!
Who it is self-evident!
Your Majesty now, Your Highness in the future!
Yao Guangxiao's forehead was covered with fine cold sweat,
His voice trembled,
"Your Highness, do you want the Fa to be above everyone?
We can only use it, but we can't use it?
Only... Even you can't? β
Zhu Xiongying nodded.
He has no problem with his grandfather being the emperor, and he has no opinion on his father being the emperor.
But
Zhu Xiongying wants to transition to the modern system as much as possible in the end of the Ming Dynasty.
Even if you plant a seed, it's fine.
Ancient feudal dynasties naturally have the meaning of their existence,
If it weren't for this great centralization,
Unified dispatch of the economy, response to disasters, overall planning of operations...
The Chinese nation has long since fallen apart.
There will also be no such unbroken dynastic succession.
But
Everything has periods of decay and heyday,
no doubt
If you go to the world,
This system is outdated.
To give a very simple example,
Now that Zhu Xiongying has unified the world, how should he govern?
Is it possible to return to a unified dynasty?
It's a bit too whimsical.
So
Zhu Xiongying doesn't hate these things, but these systems will be quickly eliminated.
You can't still stubbornly hold on to it.
Even if Old Zhu Yesan does well, how about it?
If fundamental changes are not made,
In the future, if there are one or two descendants of a loser,
This business has to be lost!
And
Zhu Xiongying's evolution is not a direct change by patting his head,
will take hundreds of years of transition,
Zhu Xiongying trusts her grandfather and father, and she also trusts herself.
But
There is no guarantee that every future Ming emperor,
They are all capable and good people.
If the emperor is benevolent, the people will live a good life for two years.
If the emperor is a wicked king, the people will have no livelihood.
That's a bit too bullying.
So
Even if the national fortunes of the Ming Dynasty have been extended a lot,
This is also a question that Zhu Xiongying has to think about.
What should be done in order to continue the prosperity as much as possible.
Yao Guangxiao's pupils shook, and his eyes were full of shock staring at His Highness in front of him,
Your Highness is right.
Indeed, no one has ever used this method before.
This, this is outrageous!
As for Confucianism, there is no need to ask,
According to Zhu Xiongying's previous answer,
Yao Guangxiao can confirm,
His Royal Highness chose to use the Dharma in this way, and he would no longer be re-Confucian.
But His Highness will definitely use,
apparently
It's all just a means.
There is a technique in governing the country, and every founding emperor has his own ideas,
Qin Shi Huang repressed the law and high pressure,
The Han Dynasty was domineering and miscellaneous,
Tang Taizong embraced all rivers,
Song Taizong emphasized literature over martial arts.
And what is Lao Zhu?
Lao Zhu seems to have a little bit of everything,
In terms of usage, the Great Ming Law is promulgated, and the Great Decree is promulgated.
Crack down on corruption and bribery.
Ambiguous attitude towards Buddhism.
For Confucianism, it is a slightly positive attitude,
It can be seen with the great Confucian Song Lian as the head of the civil ministers.
But no matter how amazing the emperor,
None like Zhu Xiongying!
Zhu Xiongying's thinking is completely different from that of the previous emperors!
Yao Guangxiao breathed a long sigh of relief,
He never thought of benefiting the people or anything,
He hadn't thought about it before, and he won't think about it in the future,
Yao Guangxiao is a true and false monk who is afraid that the world will not be chaotic.
Yao Guangxiao's life goal is only one,
Live a fun life!
As long as you're interesting, it doesn't matter what others do.
But....
Yao Guangxiao flashed an electric current all over his body,
Let him tremble with excitement unconsciously.
shallow,
He realized that what he had thought before was completely shallow!
What I thought about before was done by others!
What's the point of that?!!
That's what no one has ever done before, so it's interesting!!
That's what really interesting!!
suddenly
Yao Guangxiao felt that the world made him extremely happy.
Yao Guangxiao didn't have to say much, and Zhu Xiongying didn't say much.
The two of them know that
Yao Guangxiao, it's time to get on the boat.
Yao Guangxiao opened his mouth and asked the last question,
"Your Highness, what should the vassal kings do in the future?"
This is, the most critical question!
