Lin Nan finally eliminated his dissidents. In this great purge, the three clans of Yuwensu, Su Tinglin and Dongfang Wenjie collapsed instantly. There were more than 80,000 people alone, and the clan forces gradually disappeared. He sent a large army to wipe out the sergeant of Tangjiabao, but the father and daughter of the Tang family disappeared, which made him depressed for a long time. However, thinking that Tang Ling'er was still alive, the little guilt in his heart subsided. Lin Nan also realized that he had taken too much for granted at the time. His thoughts at this time were no longer a foolish monarch, at least he did not want to be a foolish monarch who had lost his country.

He first learned from the previous lessons and adopted a series of policies such as agriculture-based, reducing labor taxes, recuperation, practicing thrift, and improving the imperial examination system. However, Lin Nan attached the most importance to the selection of talents. In the ancient Chinese consciousness, selecting talents must strictly follow the principle of both moral integrity and talent. However, when a talent cannot have both moral integrity and talent, which one is a bear's paw and which one is a fish? Which one should be chosen? The traditional saying is that first we must have both moral integrity and talent. This is right, but we cannot have both moral integrity and talent? The traditional way is to be virtuous first and talented, but Lin Nan's approach is just the opposite. He issued the order to seek talents and publicly put forward a slogan called "only talent is to promote". That is to say, when there is conflict and contradiction between virtue and talent, the first thing we should choose is talent, not virtue.

As soon as his slogan was released, many ministers expressed opposition. The reason was that if a person had problems with at least moral qualities, how could he become an official? Lin Nan boldly proposed three ideas.

The first type is morally unrequited. A good person can't do anything. What's the use of such a person? The second type is to blame him for everything. I finally found a talent. Everyone came to give his opinions and said that he had something wrong with him. Should I use it or not? The third type is to cheat. In order to get the opportunity to be promoted, a talent has to do political show and moral show. This is not possible. Since there were such a problem in ancient China, Lin Nan's approach must be corrected, and the correction must be too correct. However, the correction cannot be corrected. Therefore, Lin Nan cannot say that both virtue and talent are both good, and must say that "only talent is to take action."

Lin Nan even made this statement that as long as this person is talented, even if he is not kind or filial, you will recommend it to me. So when Lin Nan handles the relationship between virtue and talent, his approach is: It is best to have both virtue and talent, but the most important thing is to only take the talent.

Inspired by this premise, a large number of talents gathered around Lin Nan. The literature included Du Ruhui, Li Jing, Ma Shumou, etc. Wu included Hou Junji, Xu Shiji, Luo Cheng, etc.

After that, Lin Nan raised the question of "integrity and greed". What was Lin Nan's approach? It was to value honest officials and not avoid minor greed.

For example, some people like to take advantage of small gains and take care of them when they are officials, but the nature of these people is not that bad, and what they take is irrelevant, so Lin Nan's attitude towards such people was to pay salary. In ancient China, we always had to pay integrity and integrity. For example, Zhu Yuanzhang hated corrupt officials the most, and even invented torture such as peeling and filling grass to punish them. What's the result? The corrupt officials in the Ming Dynasty were the most among all dynasties. Even those so-called gentlemen were mostly hypocrites, pretending not to take it, but they actually wanted to take it in their hearts.

So Lin Nan first raised his salary to the officials, so that their salary would be somewhat surplus in addition to supporting the family. Then he would only fine the salary when facing small greed. However, he was also very strict with the great greed, and he would punish the serious crimes of the nine clans. It was like a cat who could catch mice and liked to steal food. You don’t need to kill the cat with a stick because it stole something because it still had it. At least it could catch the mice.

But this does not mean that Lin Nan does not pay attention to the legal system. He once personally announced: "The national law is not a law of the emperor and a single person. It is a law that the world must abide by, so everything must be subject to the law." As a monarch above ten thousand people, he may be able to say such words, Lin Nan may be able to travel through the past.

After the law was formulated, Lin Nan set an example, took the lead in abiding by the law, and maintained the uniformity and stability of the law. In the early years of Huanglong, he truly achieved the same crime as the people. He was selfless when enforcing the law, but Lin Nan thought repeatedly during the sentencing and was very cautious. He said: "A person cannot live again when he dies, and law enforcement must be lenient and simple." Due to Lin Nan's painstaking management, the legal system in the early years of Huanglong was surprisingly good. Few people violated the law, and even fewer were sentenced to death. Within a month, the three people were sentenced to death.

In addition, the economic characteristics of the feudal dynasty in China were "focusing on agriculture and suppressing commerce". Commerce accounted for quite a low proportion of the national economy, and the status of merchants was several levels lower than that of farmer farmers. This is also the main reason why China's feudal economy has not achieved substantial development.

Lin Nan issued an order to prohibit discrimination against merchants, and also provided many convenient conditions for business development. Under the advocacy of the Lin Nan government, the commercial economy of the Great Sui Dynasty made rapid and rapid progress, and emerging commercial cities emerged like mushrooms after a rain. They became the most developed countries in the world at that time. In addition to the coastal Jiaozhou, Guangzhou, Mingzhou, and Fuzhou, commercial cities also had inland Hongzhou, Yangzhou, Yizhou, and Shazhou and Liangzhou in the northwest. The capital Luoyang and the accompanying capital Chang'an became world-wide metropolises.

In the third year of Huanglong, that is, Lin Nan became the third year of Emperor Emperor, the Sui Dynasty had become the most civilized and powerful country in the world at that time, and the capital Luoyang was even more a world-wide metropolis, just like the American New York in later generations. The Sui Empire was the "sunny zone" in the minds of benevolent people from all over the world. The talented and talented men from all over the world actually risked their lives to run to the Sui Empire. After seeing the high prosperity and civilization of the Sui Empire, their country was similar to the uncivilized "primitive forest" in their hearts, so they did not want to return to their country and tried every means to stay.

The highly developed culture of the Sui Dynasty made most of the people of all countries who came to China proud of becoming Chinese. Not only the capital Luoyang, but also all over the country, there were "expats" from abroad settled in the local area, especially emerging commercial cities. There were more than 200,000 Western expatriates in Guangzhou alone. The Sui Dynasty became one of the few open dynasties in Chinese history. There were no strict restrictions on foreigners entering and leaving Chinese, that is, they were not worried that Chinese people would forget their roots and ancestors after going out; they were not worried that foreigners would lose their hosts after coming in.

At this time, the Chinese were already highly confident, and believed that their country was the most civilized and prosperous land in the world, and they were not worried that foreign culture would subdue themselves. The national quality of the Sui Dynasty was so high that they neither discriminated nor welcomed foreign expatriates, neither blindly xenophobic nor "used" them. They were neither humble nor arrogant, and had a great national demeanor and a kingly demeanor. Foreigners in China, just like Chinese in their own homes, enjoyed the same civil power as the Chinese, and not only could they make money, but also become officials. Many of the expatriates from the Arab Empire and France held official positions in China, and some also served as senior ministerial officials.

In addition to accepting a large number of foreign immigrants, the Sui Empire also accepted batches of foreign students to come to China to learn advanced culture, but the only one they did not accept were Japanese people. The Japanese official-sponsored public-funded international students were sent in seven batches, with hundreds of people in each batch, but the Sui Dynasty did not accept them. This made the Japanese nation, which was in a primitive tribal state, even more declining and almost trampled under the feet of the Koreans.

In the fifth year of Huanglong, Lin Nan ordered to dig the Grand Canal. However, he was not eager for quick success and instant benefits, and he did not receive much labor, and the digging process was very slow. It was supposed to first dig a "Yongji Canal" that was about 1,000 kilometers long from Luoyang to Linqing, Shandong to Zhuo County, Hebei; then dig a "Tongluo Canal" that was about 1,000 kilometers long from Luoyang to Qingjiang, Jiangsu; then dig a "Jiangnan Canal" that was about 400 kilometers long from Zhenjiang, Jiangsu to Hangzhou, Zhejiang; at the same time, the Hangou was transformed. In this way, there would be a river channel between Luoyang and Hangzhou, which was more than 1,700 kilometers long, which could directly connect to the ship.

The scenery flies. In the autumn of the fifth year of Huanglong, Lin Nan was already 26 years old this year. Five years have made him more mature and no longer the King of Wu. Commenting memorials every day and playing with the concubines in his spare time has become his only life. Although it is boring, he has become used to it. The only regret is that there is no concubine in the past five years. Lin Nan naturally knows that it is his own problem and gradually stops mentioning it.

...

"Brother, what are you doing?" At this time, Lin Nan was reading the memorial in Nan's study. Anyang ran in happily. After living with Lin Nan for so long, she almost forgot about her etiquette. The eunuchs and palace maids knew that Lin Nan loved her and did not report it at all.

Lin Nan saw her and smiled, "Come on, Yang'er, I heard that you have learned to make snacks from Gui'er recently?"

"Well, we won't talk about this, come with me." Anyang pulled Lin Nan and ran out without any explanation.

The two ran out of the palace gate and were greeting Zhu Guier. Lin Nan grabbed her and asked, "Where are you taking me to?" Anyang blinked at Zhu Guier and said, "Sister Guier, tell me." Lin Nan looked at Zhu Guier, and Guier smiled slightly and said, "Jiang Kingdom just now sent someone to send a treasure, but I was afraid that the emperor would not accept it, so I actually sent it to the Empress."

"What treasures will be in the country of Dwarf?" Lin Nan felt a little unhappy when he heard the word "Japanese".

"Brother, you will be happy after seeing it. It's a living baby. Even the few women like it very much." Anyang's words had already revealed all the information. Lin Nan pointed at her little nose and smiled, "Since you like it so much, I will give it to you and take it back to your yard."
