Chapter 13 Not seen Xingbang on
Reform also means that there will be a fundamental conflict with a group of forces, and there will even be bloodshed and even war. Bu Qian was the first to react. He immediately stood up and said loudly, "Your Majesty, now that Nanming is waiting to be abolished, the reform is better to postpone it for a while."
"We need to strike while the iron is hot." Lin Dao looked at Bu Qian with a smile, "You also know that the content of my reform must be aimed at those aristocratic forces. Now I am suppressing them with all my strength. If I don't take advantage of this time to issue a reform decree, when do you think is the best time?"
"Your Majesty, although we have suppressed the rebellion, the domestic people are still living in great hardship, and disasters occur in various regions from time to time. Lao Chen believes that the king should turn his attention to the people's livelihood, rather than endlessly squeezing the nobles.
Bu Qian said so, and everyone present couldn't help sweating a lot for Bu Qian. The courtiers and generals have a very poor impression of Lin Dao. In their eyes, Lin Dao is a complete tyrant, and life and death depend entirely on happiness and anger. Although he suppressed Ling Rui's rebellion alone, it could not cover up his violent and bloody acts of slaughtering the nobles of Southern Underworld.
Lin Dao was not angry. Bu Qian was not only his father-in-law, but also the pillar of the country. Lin Dao relied on Bu Qian to a large extent. Lin Dao stretched out his hand and rubbed his chin a few times, and his face gradually became serious. He looked straight at Bu Qian and said loudly, "The Prime Minister is very right! The foundation of the country lies in people's livelihood. What I want is that the people can live and work in peace. Young children have children, old people have something to rely on; food can be full, clothes can be warm; there is a smooth road, and there is no wind to live!"
"Dear King Renyi, I admire you!" Lin Dao's words won the unanimous praise of everyone.
"It's useless for you to admire. As my minister, you have to help me achieve this goal."
"I'll do my best!"
"Okay. I don't want to listen to such flattery. Now, all of you shut up and listen to me talk about the content of the reform first. So is the Prime Minister. You might as well listen first. If you have different opinions, you can publish them later. With that, Lin Dao took a piece of paper from Ren Hongchang behind him, "The land of Nanming is small, and I am going to replan the land. There will be four counties in the country, namely Langxie County, Jiujiang County, Zhongshan County and Zhuhai County. Except for Langxie County, the other three counties will be re-selected..."
There is a lot of content written on Lindao paper, which involves land reform, personnel distribution, replacement of arms, official welfare, people's livelihood, laws and regulations, medical education and many other aspects. After he read it, neither the civil and military officials could stand. At first, they listened with a repulsive attitude, but in the back, there was an unprecedented excitement on their faces. Yes, it's exciting. Although they don't quite understand many aspects of content and new nouns, they are all smart people who can stand in the hall. They soon found many new opportunities from what Lin Dao said.
"The king is wise! I'm ashamed!" After listening to it, Bu Qian knelt down directly to Lin Dao. This was the first time he knelt down so sincerely. For Buqi, Lin Dao, who is sitting on the throne at this time, is not a businessman or his son-in-law, but the real lord of the Southern Underworld!
"Get up, there are many places to be ashamed of." Lin Dao smiled happily. It took him a night to think of it, and he even gave up the ** opportunity to peek at Ren Hongchang's bath. He put together some of his previous knowledge, and then polished it to form a new order in today's hall. In fact, to put it bluntly, it is also a very simple idea.
Lin Dao banned the original ideological decision-making that respected Confucianism, and changed it to be dominated by legalism, assisted by Mohism and Confucianism.
Although Bu Qian is a great scholar in Yangzhou, his thinking is not rigid. On the contrary, Bu Qian, who is born in martial arts, is also very jumpy. That's why his daughter, the step trainer, is not a lady. She threw away the red embroidery and liked to dance knives and guns since she was a child. Lin Dao's move was very much like Bu Qian's intention, and what Lin Dao said was right. Hearing the wonderful things, even Bu Qian himself applauded secretly in his heart, which made him not admit that he had such a son-in-law, which was definitely a blessing in his previous life.
People say that a son-in-law is half a child. Naturally, it is very gratifying to see that Lin Dao is so excellent.
"Your Majesty, I have to say something!" At this time, the old man with the white beard standing behind Bu Qian slowly came out.
"Oh, it turned out to be Lord Li, but it doesn't matter."
Lord Li owed his body and said in a clear voice, "Your Majesty's move shows the dignity of the Dharma family, followed by the Mo family, and the Confucian family ranks last. In this way, where do you let me study the old bones of Confucianism for a lifetime?
Lord Li is a smart man. As a Confucian scholar of Nanming, although he is very resistant to Lin Dao's new order in his heart, he will never contradict Lin Dao at this jux. Otherwise, the whole family will suffer, so he used a more euphemistic statement to express how much dissatisfaction he had in his heart.
"What did you do before, and it's still the same now. In your spare time, you still drink and write poems, and sing about wine. What is life? If friends come from afar, they will be at ease. Although Lin Dao's words don't make sense, there are also some smart people who understand it.
However, Lord Li, as an old scholar, was very dissatisfied with Lin Dao's words. He thought that Lin Dao was deliberately humiliating their Confucianism. Lord Li looked straight and said sternly, "Your Majesty! Confucianism is popular in various countries in Kyushu, and Confucianism is at its peak! The king's move will definitely attract the criticism of great scholars from all over Kyushu!"
Lin Dao had been ready to have a war of words with these old sour scholars. After listening to Lord Li's words, he was not angry. Instead, he shook his head and smiled, "Lord Li, it's wrong for you to say so. In fact, in the king's view, Confucianism lies in the goodness and beauty in the world, but it has never broken the ugly faces of the world. For the peaceful and prosperous times, Confucianism should be spread all over the world. For saving and strengthening the country, the law is undoubtedly the best weapon.
"Well, if that's the case, why is there no evidence in history books? It can't be more than three generations, the king of the law!" Lord Li has forgotten his original meaning, and his words have begun to be a little paranoid.
"Ha ha, 'The nature of a person is good at the beginning'. There is nothing wrong with this, but it is also because of this that the teacher is biased. I think that in human nature, there are both good and evil factors. Some people are born with more goodness, and some people are more evil; this is related to genetics. The acquired environment and the guidance of others make some people abandon evil and promote good, and also make some people full of evil. Therefore, we should use 'law' to restrain people's behavior.
Lin Dao paused and said, "The countries of Kyushu have always formulated policies based on 'sexual goodness', and since the beginning of this king, our southern underworld, everything is premised on 'sexual evil'. We should adhere to the 'rascal principle'. When formulating policies, we should assume that everyone is a scoundrel. Even a newborn baby is the same. After the baby is born, parents and friends should give him good guidance; after he enters the school, the teacher will educate him in all aspects and set a framework for his life so that he can grow up in this invisible binding force.
When Lin Dao saw that Lord Li was about to open his mouth again, he hurriedly asked, "Lord Li, I have a question for you. If you answer correctly, I will respect Confucianism. How about the legal family?"
"Good!" Lord Li thought to himself, can't he guess a puzzle? He can't help but feel a little dissatisfied in his heart.
"To make an example. Lord Li is now the governor of a county. Under your rule, there are two counties, left and right neighbors, and there is a wide river between the two counties. In this river, the current is turbulous, and it will flood in case of heavy rain. For three consecutive years, Hedong County has been reporting that it has been raining heavily and flooding the embankment. The Hedong County magistrate led the county's old and young to fight against floods and rescue, and finally minimized the losses. However, Hexi County has no life and interest, and the county magistrate's achievements are average and ordinary. Lin Dao looked at Lord Li and asked with a smile, "So Lord Li, what do you think of the county magistrates of Hedong and Hexi counties?"
Lord Li was so smart that he answered directly, "Of course, the county magistrate of Hedong is excellent!"
"Oh, can you tell me in detail?"
"The flood broke the embankment, and the natural disaster suddenly came. The Hedong County magistrate led the old and children to fight against the flood and rescue, which reduced the loss, which shows that this person's ability is excellent. And since the Hexi county magistrate is silent, he must be hiding the disaster. What's the use of such a mediocre person?
Hearing this, Lin Dao turned his head to the other officials and asked, "What do you think?"
No one answered the officials. They all fell into meditation, and even Bu Qian lowered their eyebrows and meditated.
Lin Dao smiled. No matter how smart the ancients were, after all, their knowledge was limited, and most of the time their brains still couldn't turn around. While everyone was thinking, Lin Dao told a story: "Next, I will give you a story. It is said that there are two villages on both sides of a big river. The village head of Hexi often led the people to strengthen his side of the river embankment; the village head of Hedong misappropriated funds for food and drink. The flood came to Hedong and broke the embankment, so the village head took the people to fight against the flood and rescue on the front line. After that, the people rushed to tell each other, and the county magistrate drew money for disaster relief. The village head of Hedong was also promoted to the third level due to the meritorious official of the emergency. Because there is nothing wrong with the strong embankment in Hexi, the village head is still the village head. Everyone only rewards "water-saving", but never remembers "waterproof". So, slowly, no one is waterproofing. Everyone will come to save the water after the water floods the fields and houses.
Speaking of this, Lin Dao deliberately paused and looked around. He found that all the officials had lowered their heads. Obviously, their answers were the opposite of Lin Dao. Only Bu Qian looked at Lin Dao with a pure face.
Lin Dao continued: "The treasury has been allocated funds and has never known its where to go; officials have been shouting and have never had power; the people have been casualties and have never pursued responsibility; the government has been investigating and never revealed the truth; the country has been difficult and has never seen prosperity."
