Chapter 723: Guan Zhong discusses politics in Chaotic War in Another World: Summoning the Heroes
Time flies, and two days fly by in the blink of an eye. An enlarged meeting was held early that morning, and all the civil and military ministers came. Just like in the TV series, everyone bowed in sequence in the hall, and then stood on both sides.
The generals on the left stand in three rows, namely Han Xin, Xingtian, Hu Luguang, Juba, Li Cunxiao, Zhao Yun, Zhang Han, Huang Zhong, Taishi Ci, Odysseus, Ge Cunzhou, Wenpin, Nanfeng Buyu, Yang Huaiyu
, Yang Yanzhao, Lin Chong, Guan Sheng, Yang Ye, Yang Yansi, Yang Yanping...
Although Han Xin was the latest among them and had the least qualifications, he couldn't help but seize an opportunity given by Wang Yu to help him, and then he got out of control. After a series of military exploits, he just stood above everyone else.
The civil officials on the right are Yao Guangxiao, Xun You, Guan Zhong, Zhuge Liang, and Wang Yingkan.
Compared to the ranks of generals, the rank of civil servants is indeed relatively thin. However, although the number is small, they are all top civil servants.
During the morning meeting, Guan Zhong was the first to step out of the procession and said loudly: "Your Majesty, my subordinates and colleagues have innovated and reformed the system based on the Cang Law and learned from the laws of the other six dynasties, and adapted it to suit the times.
The author composed the nine chapters of the law, which are respectively nine chapters: thieves, thieves, prisoners, arrests, miscellaneous, tools, households, and prosperity. There are laws to follow and the order of the seven counties in Hebei is stabilized!"
Cang Fa has been established since the founding of Da Cang Dynasty hundreds of years ago. Although it has been improved since then, to this day, Wang Yu believes that today's Cang Fa is no longer suitable for Da Cang's current national conditions.
Especially now that the Cang Cang has been essentially torn apart, Wang Yu believes that he should also improve the Cang Fa according to the actual situation.
And when it comes to perfecting Cang Fa, among the many people under Wang Yu, which one is more suitable than Guan Zhong? Guan Zhong is the first person in the younger generation of Legalism. At this moment, he has reached the level of god-level politics, and even
His peak attributes have been filled with attribute points in politics.
Wang Yu nodded and said: "The so-called law is a double-edged sword. It can be used well to keep the country and the people safe, but used poorly to arouse public anger. Therefore, all aspects should be considered during the formulation process, not only for the sake of the common people, but also for the sake of the common people.
Taking into account all classes such as merchants and nobles, in short, in line with the principle of equal treatment, the emperor's crimes are the same as those of the common people.
The law is meant to safeguard the interests of the public, not the interests of a certain class of people. For some stubborn people, criminal law needs to be used to restrain them. Confucianism and law do not conflict, and they will complement each other when combined."
After everyone listened to these few sentences, both civil and military officers found it easy to understand. In the past, sages discussed benevolent government and legal government endlessly, but they could not come up with a complete answer. Unexpectedly, the lord hit the essence with just a few words. No matter how you think about it,
I don’t think it’s wrong.
The dispute between Confucianism and Legalism has existed since ancient times. The major dynasties have always argued over the rule of virtue and the rule of law, and the rule of benevolence and the rule of law. However, no conclusion has been reached.
Until Gu Qingzhu came out and vigorously promoted the parallelism of Confucianism and Legalism. Although the process was difficult, as Gu Qingzhu's status in Confucianism became more and more important, he also made twists and turns amid difficulties.
Decades ago, Gu Qingzhu worked hard to promote the cooperation between Confucianism and Legalism. Gu Qingzhu’s reputation reached its peak soon after, and the group of Legalism and Confucianism began to be born between Confucianism and Legalism.
Guan Zhong then spoke again: "I and my colleagues have drafted the "Order for Restoring the Land and Houses of the Former Lords," "Light Corvene and Thin Taxes," "Production of Agriculture, Industry and Commerce Law, etc., please have your lord's review!"
As he spoke, Guan Zhong took out four memorials from the long sleeves of his brocade robe, which were the essays including the "Nine Chapters".
"Nine-Chapter Laws," "Restoration of Land and House Orders for Old Lords," "Light corvee and thin tax system," "Prosperous Agriculture, Industry and Commerce Law," of course cannot be completed in a few days.
In fact, when Guan Zhong was preparing to come to Wang Yu, he already had a certain draft in his mind. However, at the beginning, due to Guan Zhong's limited understanding of Da Cang's actual situation, he had no idea about "Nine Chapters" in his mind.
Laws, "Ling of Restoring Gujue Land and Houses," "Light corvee and thin tax system," "Prosperous Agriculture, Industry and Commerce Law," etc. are only an outline.
As a result, from participating in martial arts competitions with Li Cunxiao to recruit relatives, until now, as Guan Zhong has become more and more familiar with the actual world of Da Cang, Guan Zhong has finally perfected the "Nine Chapters", "Restoring the Land and House Order of the Former Lord," and "Light Corvene and Thin Tax System".
, "Prospering Agriculture, Industry and Commerce Law."
Wang Yu, on the other hand, just came over and proposed the idea of complete Jinfa to Guan Zhong. In fact, even if Wang Yu did not bring it up at this time, Guan Zhong would take the initiative to report these things.
There is no need for Wang Yu to pick it up in person. For this kind of thing, when Guan Zhong took out the things, Dian Wei had already taken the initiative to pick them up.
Guan Zhong continued in detail: "This order to restore the land and residence of the old nobles was issued for people in exile. Since the founding of the country, there has been a large-scale harsh government and large-scale construction projects, often involving hundreds of thousands of people.
He also fought against Beidi, and there were occasional military battles with Wu, Qian, Wei, etc. In recent years, there have been continuous wars, wars in various places to recruit troops, various vassal kings competing for territory, etc., which has aggravated the people's life of displacement, and the population has dropped sharply.
Economic adjustment..."
"Under such circumstances, the people have no food left and are living in poverty. This order requires the dispersed people from all over the country to return to their places of origin, restore their titles and identities, return their original land and houses, and send local officials to resettle them and re-register their household registrations."
After being registered, they were told to enjoy production and not discriminate against the poor, but also to re-plan the land according to population, to allocate corresponding land and residences to those who joined the army according to their merits and titles, and to provide preferential treatment and resettlement to the people who moved with them."
This decree plays a vital role in stabilizing the people's hearts. It is said that "the people are the most important, the country is second, and the king is the least."
Only by truly seizing the hearts and minds of the people and gaining their support can we stand firm and help Wang Yu develop Hebei Province into a base that no one can shake.
Everyone's eyes lit up when they heard this. Fortunately, those military generals who could really understand were still in the minority. But Yao Guangxiao, Xun You, Zhuge Liang, and Wang Ying looked at these civil servants and nodded frequently. Guan Zhong made these remarks.
, and also let them each realize something.
Wang Yu nodded frequently. With Wang Yu's current political ability, he could not compare with Guan Zhong even if he was trying to flatter him. Without Guan Zhong, he would be just Wang Yu, and he would not be able to come up with such a complete policy.
What Guan Zhong just said is only a general content. The real and specific implementation plan cannot be summarized in such a few simple sentences. The real detailed plan is all in the text.
