Chapter 4149 The core of metaphysics also treats people
The black robe nodded: "This is your Blackhand Qiankun's long-standing philosophy. You believe that the concentration of power in the hands of the emperor is the source of chaos in the world. Therefore, this kind of independent thieves must be restrained. This idea of yours has been in existence since the Spring and Autumn Period.
It started when the Six Ministers of the Jin Dynasty were at that time, right?"
Yu Yue sighed: "The system of six ministers can limit the power of the monarch, and then take turns to govern. This can ensure that the political system that is passed down from generation to generation and governs from one family will not form. Logically speaking, it is a very good system, but it is a pity..."
The black robe smiled and said: "It's a pity that the six ministers fought and annexed each other in the end, and in the end only three families were left to divide the Jin Dynasty, and these three families formed what you call the world of kings, and there are no ministers to restrict the monarchy anymore.
What the world is fighting for is nothing more than power, and in the final analysis, power is the ability to rule and manage others, and the power to make people willingly accept rule. You always want to use the model of decentralization and restriction.
To achieve a balance of power without knowing it is against basic human nature."
Yu Yue frowned: "Everyone wants to have great power in their hands and enjoy the power alone, but the concentration of power in one person is very scary. Even if there is a powerful monarch, one person can indeed prosper the country.
One person can rule a country, but his descendants often do not have this ability. When the time comes, if a successor with mediocre talents but cruelty becomes king, it will be a disaster for the world."
"Since ancient times, the founding emperors often started from humble beginnings, but were extremely capable. However, his descendants were born rich and lacked experience, so their abilities will inevitably deteriorate. In fact, our Black Hand Universe does not necessarily oppose that kind of powerful king, just like
Liu Yu, now we are more or less obedient to him, but if Liu Yu becomes king in the future, we will not necessarily help him for his descendants."
The black robe nodded: "This is a good idea. Help the true emperor, but not the descendants of the true emperor. However, if Liu Yu, a capable ruler, does not give you enough benefits, your noble family will not be able to survive for generations.
Even if he enjoys land, slaves, wealth and honor, you will not support him."
Yu Yue gritted his teeth: "So, we must be indispensable to Liu Yu. If he wants to fight and govern the country, he cannot do without us. So naturally the credit belongs to us, and the wealth and honor are also ours. Liu Yu does not deny this.
The rule he has set now is that as long as you have meritorious service and get a title, you can be an official. I went to Guanggu and when I came back, I was promoted to General Jianwei. In the future, the eight soldiers under Liu Yu will also get rich and noble.
In a family like ours, after all, it is human nature to covet comfort, and even Liu Yu's descendants cannot avoid this."
The black robe smiled slightly: "So, your idea is to try not to offend Liu Yu in his generation while Liu Yu is alive, act according to his rules, perform meritorious services, and retain the current power. When Liu Yu is no longer in power,
Or after death, you can restore the world of your family, right?"
Yu Yue said solemnly: "Isn't this good? Only our family has the talents to govern the country now. As long as we participate in the areas that Liu Yu conquered, we will be qualified to continue to manage them after the war. As long as the territory is ours.
, the military merits of soldiers who serve in these places will also be attributed to our name. The more places they conquer, the faster our strength will grow. There will be large areas of newly conquered areas to place our sons and nephews as officials, instead of
As before, most of the disciples have no official positions and can only hold a false title and become rich."
The black robe sighed: "You think too simplistically. Once Liu Yu can popularize education and make everyone literate, it will not be your business to govern the grassroots countryside. Your children themselves don't even think about the lowest level villages.
, but those lower-level scholars are willing, and in the end you will find that slowly, the officials and low-level officials in every county and township will be occupied by the emerging scholars."
Yu Yue frowned: "There's nothing we can do about it. We don't have that many nephews to occupy the head of each village and every village. Those places can be left to our village leaders to occupy."
Reason. As long as the land belongs to our family, it will be fine."
Heipao shook his head: "Now Liu Yuding's rules are that these lands are owned by the state, not the private property of your family. Except for Sanwu, all land deeds and real estate are no longer recognized. Including this time in Qilu, those manors
It will only be temporarily managed by the children of your aristocratic family, and it will not be hereditary like Wudi Manor."
Yu Yue sneered and said: "When Liu Yu was alive, he had the final say. As long as the land comes to us first, are we afraid that we can't control it for ourselves? Is it possible that he can really take it back when the time comes?"
The black robe smiled and said: "There is nothing that can't be done. When the time comes, the official's term will also end. When the time comes, he will be transferred to another place, and this place will be free. You think time is in your favor, but in fact
, This is actually beneficial to Liu Yu. If you give him a few years, he will educate a large number of ordinary people to be literate and literate, and they will also serve as staff or serve in the army and learn management skills. When the time comes, these people will be used.
Replace the children of your aristocratic family as grassroots officials, or simply give your village leaders a path to promotion and nobility. Do you think these places can still be managed by your aristocratic family?"
Yu Yue's hands were trembling slightly. He looked at the black robe and said in a deep voice: "This won't work, that won't work either. Then as you said, if everyone becomes a monk and renounces the world, will it be enough?"
The black robe said calmly: "Yu Gong, you misunderstood me. I mean, your Taoist and metaphysical theories are specious. In order to fight against the so-called powerful kings, you imagine this ideal of world unity and no disputes."
In fact, what you want to say about the Kingdom of Heaven is that in this ideal world, everyone is self-reliant, but it still needs to be managed. There will not be a powerful king, but there must be people in each village who can direct everyone to produce and do things.
This is the son of your aristocratic family."
Yu Yue fell silent and didn't say a word. The most secret point in metaphysics was exposed by Heipao so sharply. All those fabricated beautiful skins were ruthlessly peeled off, revealing the innermost essence, but it was so...
hypocritical.
The black robe said coldly: "If you don't want a king, you just don't want a centralized power to infringe on the interests of local powerful people. There is no king in the country, but every village and every manor must have a king. There is no such kind of rule."
Those who cannot assign others to produce and work, without unity and cooperation, even digging a canal to divert water for irrigation cannot do it. All things are born, and then there is a king. This is the unchanging truth in the world, and it will always command those at the bottom.
Working from the grassroots to support you, the children of aristocratic families and masters of metaphysics, this is the world you want!"
