When Hubu Shangshu heard this, his face looked a little better: "Chu Xian, since you know, you should understand that there are some things that are already deep-rooted, the landlord and the landlord are at the first level, and they are already the foundation of the Holy Dynasty, and there are many people, if you move them, you will shake the foundation of the Holy Dynasty, not to mention that you can't pass it on my side, even if you go to the court meeting, or discuss it in the Shoufu Pavilion, no one will support you." On the contrary, if you bring it up, not only will you not be able to get through, but you will also cause a commotion, so why should you do that?"

Chu Xian smiled and did not answer directly, but said: "Lord Shangshu, since you can also see the drawbacks of this matter, you should understand a truth, freezing three feet is not a day's cold, some things, may not reveal problems for hundreds of years, but this does not mean that there will never be problems, right now is the Holy Dynasty is strong, but if the political situation in the future is slightly decaying, let me ask, when the problem is exposed, will it become the last straw that crushes the camel?"

Chu Xian asked the head of the household book.

This rhetorical question made it impossible for the head of the household to answer.

Chu Xian continued: "Maybe this is a matter in the future, maybe you and I will think that this kind of thing will be handed over to future generations to solve, but what if, they can't solve it? Just like us, we are afraid of wolves and tigers, and in the end I am afraid that it will cause a catastrophe, and then we will really shake the foundation of the Holy Dynasty, and when the time comes, my lord and I will become the sinners of the Holy Dynasty through the ages." ”

When this sentence came out, Tobe Shangshu's body shook obviously, obviously struggling.

Chu Xian did not continue to speak, but retreated after saluting, some things do require some time to think and make decisions, especially when this kind of general policy similar to 'scraping bones and curing poison', it takes great courage and courage.

Chu Xian is fearless, but his ability alone is limited after all, so he must also win the support of others, and the land reform is led by the household department, so the household department Shangshu has become the first fortress that Chu Xian must overcome.

With the support of the Hubu Shangshu, this matter is possible, otherwise, no matter how much Chu Xian tosses, I am afraid that the final result will be useless.

And with Chu Xian's understanding of the Hubu Shangshu, Chu Xian knew that the other party had long seen the drawbacks of the current policy, and he also had the heart to reform, but even if it was a Dao Immortal, even if it was an official at the level of the Shoufu Pavilion, when he wanted to implement this kind of decree similar to 'earth-shaking', he was a little powerless, and the last failure was because of this, but fortunately, this time Chu Xian fought side by side with him.

Land, to be precise, cultivated land, is the foundation of the state, and the same is true for the Holy Dynasty, which promotes private ownership of drugs, which is privately owned, but can be bought and sold, and only needs to pay taxes and silver.

When it was first designated, it was good, but the system was extremely disadvantageous.

The people of this world are always profit-seeking, and people are strong and weak, and they are wise and dull, and the far-sighted people have held the ownership of the land tightly in their hands from the beginning, not only that, but also will try their best to buy it from others, or to buy it by force, or to take it by force, in short, all kinds of income.

The cultivated land is limited, and after a long time, some people are sitting on thousands of acres of fertile land, while most people, from birth, are empty-handed, because since their ancestors, their land has been lost, or sold.

How do you make a living without land?

Craftsmen don't worry, businessmen don't worry, but in this world, there are more farmers.

If the peasant households want to cultivate the land, but there is no land to plant, they can only rent from those landlords and tyrants who have land, so that most of the income has to be handed over after the coolies, and it is foreseeable how they will live. Except for a few who change their fate through other means, most of them have come over like this for generations.

So the rich get richer, and the poor get poorer.

The most terrifying thing is that the landlords and tyrants who control the resources and wealth are extremely numerous and self-contained, and it is almost difficult for others to seek benefits from them, and this class is like a layer of partition, cutting the entire holy dynasty in half, more like a terrifying parasite, sucking nutrients from above, sucking blood from below, while themselves, not enterprising, occupy a large amount of land and wealth.

Chu Xian knew that in some places, the landlord was a tyrant, and even comparable to the local government in terms of influence, and some families had only a dozen people, but they owned half of the cultivated fields around the local county.

If this situation continues, sooner or later something big will happen.

And as long as it is unfavorable to this class, it will be resisted, either open or dark, many decrees can only be implemented at the city level, to the county government or even in the village, it is difficult to enforce it, the following pretend to obey, in fact, it is yin and yang violation, similar things happen from time to time, and it is difficult to hold accountable, even if it is found together, after disposal, it is impossible to shake the overall situation.

Because of this, it shows that this matter has reached the point where it must be dealt with.

Of course, for the Holy Dynasty, it is nothing to maintain the existing system, after all, the absolute force is in the hands of the Holy Dynasty, and a Dao Immortal can pacify the land of a state.

But to govern the world, not by force, but by good government and tolerance, otherwise why would so many immortals spend effort and time to improve the system and do their best for the Holy Dynasty? That is, to uphold the mission of the Holy Ancestor of Taizong to revitalize the human race, why is the Wu Clan founded tens of thousands of years, but not as good as the Holy Dynasty for 5,000 years? This is because of this.

However, Chu Xian knew in his heart that the things he had fallen on the paper had to be truly implemented and turned into real things, and there was still a long way to go, and it was absolutely frightening step by step.

But it's more difficult than it is worth doing.

Chu Xian is no longer the stunned young man he was more than ten years ago, in the officialdom, he can be regarded as a person who has been up and down for many years, and he is also clear about all kinds of unspoken rules and ways of officialdom. If it is an ordinary decree, at his current level, he does not need to report it within the first auxiliary cabinet, and it will be directly voted on at the court meeting, and the probability of passing it is definitely more than eighty percent. However, this time the law of land reform is not trivial, it must be communicated with the first auxiliary cabinet, and it must be approved by the majority of the members, even if they do not support it, I hope they will not hinder it.

Compared with the Shoufu Pavilion, Chu Xian was actually more worried about the court meeting.

The officials in the Shoufu Pavilion are the most elite existences in the Holy Dynasty, with a wide mind, almost all of them are for the public, as long as it is a favorable thing, the probability of passing in the Shoufu Pavilion is extremely high, even if it is an immortal official like Yang Zhenqing who had a grudge against Chu Xian back then, in this kind of 'big right and wrong', Chu Xian believes that the other party will definitely stand firmly on the side of the reformers.

But the Chaohui is different.

There are many officials in the court, representing the interests of all parties, and sometimes there are some outdated concepts and inflexible old stubbornness, these are okay, at least positive, if you meet some officials who have conspiracies and their own small abacus, and even secretly hoard their own fields, then this decree is tantamount to asking for their lives.

It is strange that they can agree, although they have a high official position, if those officials at the court are gathered, it is also a big force.

The most troublesome thing is that even if it is forcibly carried out by the toughness of the First Auxiliary Cabinet, only a few officials in the First Auxiliary Cabinet will have to rely on the officials at all levels below to really carry it out; if they disobey the law and agree on the surface, but in fact do not do anything, then the reform will only be in vain.

Something similar has happened before, and it's not Chu Xian who is alarmist.

Chu Xian didn't want to just thunder and not rain, since he wanted to do it, he had to do it thoroughly.

He left from the side of the household Shangshu, and went to find Cui Huanzhi and Kong Qian, as long as he could have a place at the court meeting, and the people who belonged to his own side, Chu Xian would go to communicate in person in advance to obtain their support.

Obviously, both Cui Huanzhi and Kong Qian expressed their support after knowing Chu Xian's thoughts, which Chu Xian had already expected, if he couldn't even convince these two, then don't do it.

Naturally, those officials who have a good relationship, Chu Xian has been lobbying in person these days, but the number of these officials is not large, and they are all Chu Xian's friends, even if they have reservations, they will not say it in advance.

In addition, what Chu Xian needs to convince the most is naturally Xiao Yu Taishi and Da Situ.

These two, one is the head of the Shoufu Pavilion and currently holds the supreme authority of the Holy Dynasty, and the other is in charge of all internal affairs, as well as the current Shang Shuling.

All three of them are to be notified in advance.

There is no problem with Xiao Yu's side, and Xiao Yu also told Chu Xian that regarding the reform of the fields of the Holy Dynasty, he had thought about moving as early as when Lu Yan was in office, but he had not found a suitable opportunity, and he was afraid of pulling the whole body, so it has been delayed until now, Xiao Yu Taishi also has this intention, Chu Xian proposed it at this time, it was really a hit, Xiao Yu told Chu Xian that he would fully support this matter, and only hoped that Chu Xian could really do it, instead of dry thunder and no rain, if it failed again, it would also lose the prestige of the Holy Dynasty's first auxiliary pavilion。

With the full support of Master Xiao Yu, Chu Xian naturally has confidence.

Da Situ's side, there is also an opinion, that is, support, for Da Situ, Chu Xian is quite respectful, Da Situ's age is already quite high, but he gave up continuing to cultivate, improving his cultivation, and instead focused all his energy on the government affairs of the Holy Dynasty, everyone knows that the possibility of Da Situ being able to break through the realm is extremely small, so to speak, there is not much left of his longevity, but Da Situ can still be calm and light, this state of mind is really admirable.

And when Chu Xian went to find Shang Shuling Li Yuanming, he ran into trouble.

The official position of the Holy Dynasty Shangshu Order is quite large, and the authority is also high, but Li Yuanming is too conservative, and in the Shoufu Pavilion, he was pressed by Xiao Yu who was the Zhongshu Order before, and the six Shangshu sometimes bypassed his Shangshu Order and directly discussed with Da Situ and Xiao Yu Taishi, so in the Shoufu Pavilion, Li Yuanming's sense of existence as a Shangshu Ling is not strong.
