More than 20 days later, the Jinyi guards who monitored the vassal king withdrew one after another, and at the same time as receiving the Yulu, they learned that their yamen had been withdrawn.

Those who have land are better, but those who don't have land can only be tenants.

Seeing that these people were depressed, and thinking of the nearly 1,000 subordinates who were far away on the map of Mobei, Li Qing felt uncomfortable in his heart, and said secretly: When they come back, I have to tell Lao Zhu that they should be treated according to the previous treatment, and they should be married to each other, and they can't be worked in vain.

Now that the situation is gradually becoming clear, sooner or later it will be necessary to fight with the Yuan people outside the Guanwai, and with these maps, it will be much easier to send troops in the future.

In a blink of an eye, the January period had arrived, and Li Qing went to the palace to see Lao Zhu with the prepared words.

Lao Zhu is older, but his spirit is not bad, and he is even happier to see him look confident.

"Tea."

Xiao Huangmen immediately served hot tea, and then retreated with interest, and there were only three of them in the main hall.

"Yun Wei has seen the teacher." Zhu Yunwen bowed slightly.

Li Qing hurriedly returned the salute and said with a dry smile, "The grandson is polite, how dare the minister accept the courtesy?" ”

"Alright, let's all sit down." Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and said, "Don't fix these vain, Li Qing, you hurry up and get on the dry goods." ”

"......" Li Qing arched his hand and said stubbornly, "Your Majesty, the national policy that the ministers have studied may make you unhappy." ”

Zhu Yuanzhang frowned, "Let's talk about it." ”

Zhu Yunwen also looked at him curiously, and at the same time, moved the teacup to him.

Li Qing lifted the teacup and muttered, "It's about the household registration system." ”

He was ready to try Lao Zhu's attitude.

"Before the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, due to the long-term war, many household registrations were lost, for this reason, the emperor re-established a set of unprecedentedly strict household registration and enslavement system, the purpose of which is to restore production, it is really a heroic ......"

"Say yes." Lao Zhu interrupted, "We don't like to listen to these nonsense. ”

"Uh-huh...... Obey the order. Li Qing smiled and said, "The development of the country needs to change with time and situation, if it remains unchanged, it will only limit the prosperity of the Ming Dynasty;

The emperor divided the household registration into: clan households, gentry households, private households (including: peasant households, Confucianism, doctors, etc.), military households (including: school captains, wrestlers, archers, military craftsmen, etc.), artisan households (including: cooks, tailors, horse boats, etc.), salt households, merchants, post households......

These are all good things, but... Ahem, clan inheritance is necessary, but there is no need to restrict other things too much, for example: the descendants of farmers can only farm, the descendants of tailors can only be tailors, and so on;

These systems are really not conducive to the development of the Ming Dynasty! ”

"You're too shallow." Zhu Yuanzhang didn't have a good breath and said, "You know a hammer!" ”

No, this time it's you who know a hammer...... Li Qing scolded a sentence, full of helplessness, "The minister is stupid, and I hope that the emperor will make it clear." ”

Zhu Yuanzhang snorted: "We are doing this to reassure the people, so that the people of the world will not have to worry about having no work from birth;

With the foundation of survival, the country will be stable and the world will be peaceful! ”

After a pause, "Moreover, from father to son, son to grandson, from generation to generation, all the industries of our Daming will get better and better." ”

This is what Zhu Yuanzhang came up with with all his heart's work, and it is also his pride, and no one is allowed to question it.

"Imperial Grandpa Shengming." Zhu Yunwen was very eye-catching, and immediately slapped a sycophant.

Li Qing was very helpless, although he had been mentally prepared, he was rejected by Lao Zhu when he came up, which still made him feel lost.

Thinking about it, he was a little unwilling, and arched his hand: "Your Majesty, can you allow the ministers to talk about the minister's point of view?" ”

Zhu Yuanzhang pondered for a while, nodded and said, "Say it." ”

"The emperor is doing this, which is equivalent to cutting off the ascending channel of the people of the world." Li Qing said solemnly, "For example: if the emperor... Ahem, if the minister is a tailor;

The ministers got up early and worked greedily at night, saved enough money to marry their daughters-in-law, and got their wishes to marry wives and have children......"

Lao Zhu likes this way of talking with examples, which is vivid and interesting, not boring at all, and easy to understand.

Therefore, there was no interruption.

Zhu Yunwen usually comes into contact with all the people, and when he suddenly heard this way of discussing politics, he was also very interested and listened very attentively.

Li Qing continued to coax the grandfather and grandson, "But the minister is not satisfied, with a wife and children on the hot kang, the minister still wants his son to have a chance." ”

After a pause, "Your Majesty, this is not too much, right?" ”

"Not too much, you continue." Zhu Yuanzhang listened to it a little bit, which is much more interesting than the criticism.

Li Qing said with a look of grievance, "The minister wants his son to gain fame, serve the country, and glorify his ancestors, but the minister is a tailor, and his son can only be a tailor!" ”

The smile on Zhu Yuanzhang's face suddenly froze, and he immediately fell into deep thought, and after a long time, he slowly shook his head.

"There's some truth to your theory, but... We still feel that the most important thing is to let the people feel at ease and let the people have the foundation for survival. ”

Li Qing was full of bitterness, and said: "The emperor thinks that Qin and Han are stronger and weaker? ”

"Isn't this nonsense?" Zhu Yuanzhang didn't have a good air, "Naturally, it's Han." ”

"What about Han and Tang?"

Zhu Yuanzhang said without hesitation, "Tang! ”

"The emperor knows, why Tang Shenghan, Han Shengqin, Tang Shengqin is far away?"

"Don't us off." Zhu Yuanzhang showed timidity in his heart, and his face was dissatisfied, "Hit your ass with ink again." ”

Li Qing said: "Qin used to be a slave system, and although the system was much more relaxed after the establishment of Qin, it still did not completely get rid of slavery;

And the reason why Han is stronger than Qin is because it opens the way for the people to rise;

In the Han Dynasty, except for the throne of the clan, other positions were not hereditary, which made the vacancy very large, and at the same time, it also meant that there were great opportunities;

The emperor once compared Lan Yu to Zhong Qing, so let's take this Wei Qing as an example;

Wei Qing was originally an inconspicuous soldier, that is, with his ability and military merits, he became a famous general of the Han Dynasty, but if there was no vacancy above, even if Wei Qing had the ability, he would not be a general. ”

"Those who can live in it, so that those who stay will be elites." Li Qingzheng said, "Your Majesty, Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, was born in the late ......."

After a pause, "Shu Chen is brave, the emperor is similar to Han Gaozu, and he is also from a small background, including General Xu Da, General Chang Yuchun, etc., all of whom are from the grassroots;

But your ability, especially the emperor, is definitely the top compared to the emperors of the past and present, what does this mean?

Origin and ability are not directly proportional!

My Ming Dynasty now has a population of nearly 70 million, how can there be no shortage of talents? ”

Li Qing said bitterly: "No matter how good a talent is, if he has no chance, he is blind!" ”

Then, continue the topic just now: "And in the Tang Dynasty, the civil and military ascent channel is fully open, and the atmosphere is open, which is unique in the past and the present, so it has the name of the Tang Dynasty." Li Qing said seriously, "Your Majesty, if the Ming Dynasty is firmly imprisoned and does not think about change, how can we reach the height of the Han and Tang Dynasties?" ”

Balabala......

Zhu Yuanzhang was silent, he didn't refute, and he couldn't refute it.

If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't live, his grandson Zhu Yunwen would probably be herding cattle for Liu De's grandson at this time.

The Yuan Dynasty killed his family, but it also made him.

Lao Zhu himself was born in the last few years, so he can understand Li Qing's meaning too well.

But... The system has been formed, how can it be changed overnight?

There are already so many vested interests, and if they are forced to change, it will inevitably cause great turmoil.

If you want to reform the system, you must have an emperor with an iron hand like him, but he doesn't have that time anymore, grandson......

No matter how you look at it, it won't be an iron-blooded emperor.

Zhu Yuanzhang's heart was extremely painful, and he cried out in his heart: "If we had this person at the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China, how good it would be!" ”

At the same time, he also regretted it very much, if Li Qing had been particularly reused from the beginning, it might not have been too late to change the system, but now......

Lao Zhu's face was full of regret, and he lamented in his heart: "We feel that we have overestimated him enough, but I didn't expect it...... Or underestimate him;

If God gives us another twenty years, no, fifteen years will be enough, alas...... Yikes! ”

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Li Qing as if looking at a rare treasure.

The look in his eyes...... It gave Li Qing goosebumps.

Li Qing was looked at by Lao Zhu, and said secretly: "Isn't Lao Zhu the most admired Han Gaozu?"

Damn, I don't think I'm saying anything wrong! ”

Seeing that Zhu Yuanzhang's face was getting more and more ugly, Li Qing hurriedly patted his ass, "The minister's words are inappropriate, Han Gaozu is not as good as the emperor." ”

After a pause, he added: "Far away!" ”

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't listen to it at all, he regrets and remembers it now, and finally realizes the regret of 'I was born before I was born, and I am old when you are born'.

Lao Zhu was full of grief and indignation: Damn, it's late!

Seeing him like this, Li Qing became more and more worried in his heart, and scolded secretly: "My day, Lao Zhu, your ability to bear it is too poor, right?"

Doesn't that mean that there is something wrong with the system you have set?

Damn, I still haven't said a lot, you can't stand it?

Let's not be in a hurry! ”
