Chapter 356 Hereditary
"Brother Jipu, please sit down..." Wang Ju said politely.
The person in front of him was more criticized than praise, mainly because of the betrayal of Wang Anshi. But that betrayal was nothing to Wang Ju. On the contrary, this person's execution ability is the best in the world.
No matter how far-sighted he can only execute, Wang Anshi is not as good as him.
But this talent is also a double-edged sword. If used well, it can hurt the enemy, but if used poorly, it can hurt oneself. Just like Wang Shao and Xue Xiang and Wang Anshi want them to be obedient puppets, can they succeed?
"Brother Jifu, when will you take up your post here?"
"I was transferred here just like Zi'an, and I'm the same as Jun."
Wang Ju knew about Lu Huiqing's big situation, but these small details were not clear, but he might as well imagine it. After thinking, he immediately noticed the back of the man Jiangning. But Wang Ju would not say it.
Just like he wanted to say three words just now.
The first sentence is that big livestock. If the whole country wants to increase grain production, it cannot be separated from these big livestock. But now it is very sad. Everyone is unwilling to raise them, so they are afraid of increasing their own households. So why can't big livestock not be included in property coordination as they did in Huachi County?
Although it seems that it will be severe when it is short, it will also be fast when it is raised. He still remembers that when he was a child in his previous life, there were plowing oxes everywhere in the countryside. As a result, as harvesters and plowing machines appeared one after another, in just a few short years, they could hardly see plowing oxes, as if they had suddenly disappeared. That doesn't matter, it is the product of technological progress. Where can I find a harvester now?
So some policies have to be introduced to protect them, and a few years later, a large number of livestock appeared one after another.
But now the economy is so tight. There is no money for disaster relief. The drought in Hebei and Shandong are on their own. The monk's certificates are sold in Shaanxi. If you don't plan to make big livestock, it will be like invisibly reducing a lot of taxes and corvee labor. Where can you pass it?
Wang Ju will never say anything that cannot be achieved.
This has to be left in the future, maybe next year, or the year after, depending on the situation. Anyway, the little emperor still trusts him very much and has many opportunities to say.
The second sentence is that when he mentioned the treatment of the Western Xia tribes on the border, he wanted to say something, and the same is true for politics, to win over, divide and suppress, trade and make compromises. This is the true face of politics!
For example, he himself ignored the minister and immediately bowed to him when he saw him. Anyway, he was young and had a low official position, so it was normal to do this. However, because of this kind of politeness and humility, everyone had a good impression of him. Including Zhang Fangping, Wang Gui, not to mention the Han brothers. Therefore, Sima Guang jumped around, and there were not many people who were Huo him. Then Wang Ju fought back at Sima Guang alone. This was also a kind of win over and divide and suppression.
The others do not get into evil together. They only get into evil with Sima Guang alone.
The same is true in politics. In fact, Wang Anshi had many comrades at first, but in the end. Not to mention people like Xue Xiang and Wang Shao, some of them also wanted to reform and eliminate the national ills. Many, such as Xiao Su, Han brothers, and Wang Anshi did not appease them in time. Some of them wanted to flatter and get ahead. For example, Cheng brothers, why are Cheng brothers? Yes, they were flatterers at first, so don’t take their articles seriously. However, these people are not small, and Wang Anshi did not win over them in time. And some people were watching, although these people were conservative, their moral integrity was still good, and the representative of them was Fan Chunren. Wang Anshi did not openly talk to them, and used the powerful proposition of the country's future to convince them.
Then what……
Otherwise, use some means to win over, then use transactions to differentiate, and twist these three groups of people's hearts, how many ministers will be left to jump in the end? Will there be a story that will be later?
Wang Ju didn't say it, because after saying it, Zhao Xu might not have the ability to do it.
On the contrary, he really became a scheming villain in Sima Guang's mouth.
Of course, what Wang Ju said is extraordinary. Why is the Song Dynasty so weak? Are the soldiers afraid of death? They are not afraid of death. The soldiers are not afraid of death, but they are so weak. Isn’t that a big problem?
Why do the country have so many problems? Is it because the people are stupid? Is it because the people are lazy? Is it because the people are not lazy. The people are not stupid or lazy, but the country is poor and weak. Isn’t it a big problem?
In fact, this is true. Wang Ju remembers that he learned a saying in school in his previous life, "It's a big place and a lot of things, is it bullshit?"
China is a big place, but can it be called a wealth of things? Poor as large, it can only account for more than 10% of the arable land area. Even this ten percent is cultivated by the people bit by bit. The north is short of water and mountains. There is no shortage of water in the south, but there are swamps and lakes everywhere. Even iron ore is mostly poor iron ore. It is precisely because of this group of people who turn mountains into terraces, lakes and swamps into enclosures, and seas into mulberry fields, creating a "rich" place.
With such soldiers and such people, the country has such serious problems. It is not the fault of the military and civilians, but the fault of the rulers.
So Zhao Xu didn't find it funny when he heard his Westerner's joke, but instead felt heavier.
But this is a vague statement, Wang Ju didn't explain it. The main reason is that he is afraid of controversy, and his current age and status are not to be discussed by him.
I dare not say the third sentence.
But this sentence is very similar to the intention of moving the capital to Chang'an.
"Brother Jipu, why do you think of this?" Poor, Wang Ju used this instead of using the word "moving the capital".
Lu Huiqing raised an old book of Tang in his hand.
"Hahaha," Wang Ju couldn't help but be happy.
There have been several great capital migrations in Chinese history. The Shang Dynasty did not count, it was too far away and it was not very true to record it.
Therefore, the capital that is about to be destroyed cannot be counted as it is a helplessness. For example, the Eastern Jin Dynasty and the Southern Song Dynasty.
There is another type of capital that can be moved by powerful officials to control the government affairs, such as Cao Cao moved the capital of the Eastern Han Dynasty to Xuchang.
There were several real moves, such as Emperor Xiaowen's capital, and his goal was to migrate. There was no way. The Han people at that time were still pride of the Han Dynasty, so let's not talk about it. The Han people and wealthy families also looked down on these Xianbei people. Without sinicization and integration into the Han system, the Northern Wei would not be able to rule the Central Plains.
It should be said that he had been half successful. The least successful was the Yuan Dynasty. After decades, he returned to the grassland. The most successful was the Qing Dynasty.
Later in the Ming Dynasty.
Zhu Di's intention to move the capital was not to the emperor's country. If he didn't move the capital, he wouldn't be able to stay in Nanjing. Can he hold that position? So he moved the capital to Beijing, which is the truth. But later generations have gone far. Some people say that he moved well, but the emperor's country is so powerful. Some people say that he moved poorly. Once Beijing was broken, the Ming Dynasty was destroyed. China was gone.
Why does it mean that China is gone? It’s good that the Qing Dynasty has a larger territory? Therefore, Teacher Yuan repeatedly criticized the Ming and promoted the Qing Dynasty. However, if you think about it seriously, although the Ming Dynasty was not as enlightened as the Song Dynasty, it was not completely closed down, including the firearms from the West, and immediately studied. Xu Guangqi, the second assistant to the Grand Secretary’s Cabinet, not only studied the science from the West. He also devoted himself to Catholicism, writing what he learned into books and printing, so that people all over the world can learn. If this trend continues, even if there is a gap with the West, it should not be too big.
Therefore, China's turning point is this Beijing.
But how much does it have to do with the Emperor's Imperial Gate? The truth has nothing to do with it. Beijing was not captured by the Qing Dynasty, but by Li Zicheng. And Li Zicheng rebelled and wiped out the Central Plains fortifications and military affairs. As a result, the Ming Dynasty had no room for maneuver. Otherwise, it would be so difficult for so many princes and grandchildren to choose an agent? Then with the Qing Dynasty's troops, where can they be attacked?
In addition, Wu Zetian moved the capital this time.
Her capital was to become an emperor, but she could not become an emperor in Chang'an. It was not the location of the Guanlong family.
And an unsuccessful capital migration.
The year Zhao Kuangyin was dying, he inspected Luoyang, and the Luoyang city wall was repaired by Zhao Defang's father-in-law Jiao Jixun, and some rivers and canals were built, which was almost arranged for the move of the capital. But at this time, Zhao Kuangyi opposed it.
As a result, something was rumored that there was no danger to defend Kaifeng. If the Song Dynasty wanted to last for a long time, the king was Chang'an, and there was too much room for maneuver. Even if the northern nomadic peoples broke through the Central Plains, Luoyang, and then took Tongguan and Chang'an, the Song Dynasty had prepared defenses in all aspects. No matter how bad the situation was, it would be the Tang Dynasty after the Anshi Rebellion. Luoyang was not as dangerous as Chang'an, but there was still a Hulao Pass ahead!
There is also a background here. Kaifeng back then was far inferior to Kaifeng now. Although it was the capital of several split dynasties and prospered in the Later Zhou Dynasty, it was just that. Therefore, even if the capital was moved to Chang'an, the pressure would not be so great.
However, Zhao Kuangyi said, "The country is in virtue, not in danger."
It seems reasonable and unreasonable. If every dynasty can truly achieve virtue and be passed down to the world, what's the harm that it will be if it moves the capital to Beijing? But is it possible?
In the end, Zhao Kuangyin did not make any noise, but he did not move to the capital.
The actual background here is not these two dialogues. Zhao Kuangyin moved the capital because Zhao Kuangyi had been operating in Kaifeng for many years, which made Zhao Kuangyin worried. The reason why Zhao Kuangyi was successful was that the capital was moved, and the benefits involved were too great. Especially later, the so-called "Shuo Party" moved, and the king's capital was farther away from the capital. The further away from the capital, the harder it would be for future generations to enter the political circle. So are they willing to accept it?
So Zhao Kuangyin chose to loot Zhao Er's power at the lowest price, which was to support Zhao San to come to power. However, Zhao San had not yet come to power. That snowy night, the shadow of a jade axe made the Song Dynasty undergo a qualitative change from then on.
The fate of the Song Dynasty is definitely completely different from the death of Zhao Dadu and Immortality. At least two Northern Expeditions would not be defeated so miserably.
Wang Ju looked at the record of Wu Zetian moving the capital in the book again.
This move is very ruthless and specific.
The various crises in the country are mainly concentrated on the vested interest of the Party.
Once the capital was moved to Chang'an, the distance between the Shuo Party and the nearest was more than 1,000 miles away. In less than ten or twenty years, the Shuo Party's power gradually faded. At most, it became a legacy like Nanjing in the Ming Dynasty. Although it had an influence in the local area, it would not lead to the direction of national affairs.
But it's too difficult.
When Zhao Kuangyin wanted to move the capital, the northwest Xixia had not yet risen. Now if he wanted to move the capital, he had to destroy the Xixia.
If you want to move the capital, you must rebuild various water conservancy projects to Chang'an. Even because the water and soil deteriorate greatly, you must forcibly dig Sanmenxia and remove the pillar.
This is not the most difficult thing, and the most difficult thing is still back to the origin, that is, once the capital is moved, what kind of counterattack will the Party’s forces launch? It is too simple to find a reason now, it is not that the country is in virtue but not in danger, such as water conservancy, and the resettlement of so many people, how much money will be spent.
Therefore, Fan Zhongyan’s proposal to move the capital to Luoyang failed due to opposition.
Fan Zhongyan’s reason is very simple. There are too many difficulties in moving the capital to Chang'an. It is impossible to get around Sanmenxia’s level, and then to Weishui’s level. Then the water and soil destruction in the relevant area cannot get around. The force of the Xixia people cannot get around.
But there is no such problem in Luoyang. Once Luoshui is repaired, transportation will not be so difficult.
Then, Hulao Pass was repaired.
With the danger of mountains and rivers, the country does not need so many forbidden soldiers to guard the capital.
Look at it now, even if Wang Ju’s proposal is to move the forbidden troops outside the city, rather than stay away from the capital. Otherwise, what if the enemy cavalry comes?
In this flat and vast area, how to set up Hulaoguan Tongguan, it is necessary to station a large number of imperial guards all year round.
However, if you move to Luoyang, you can gradually reduce the number of troops and reduce the heavy burden on the country.
Then why did it fail in the end? That is the influence and losses of the party's forces.
"Brother Jipu, it's too difficult." Wang Ju said again. However, he could understand Lu Huiqing's intention. He didn't know which channel he entered the Pavilion. However, before Wang Anshi arrived in the capital, Lu Huiqing was still unknown. Although the officials in the Pavilion were expensive, many of them were not Lu Huiqing alone. There were more than 20 officials who managed the collection or edited books in Jixian Hall. If it weren't for Lu Huiqing's introduction today, Wang Ju wouldn't have known that Lu Huiqing had also come to Jixian Hall.
Therefore, he may have seen Zhao Xu talk to him for a long time, and Zhao Xu was very intimate in his actions, and wanted to take this line from him. He would be able to get on the top of his position with many recommendations. So he said two bold words with a stunning voice, Chang'an!
"Yes, it's hard."
Wang Ju suddenly had an idea and said, "In fact, in the final analysis, it is just two words, hereditary!"
This is the third sentence that Wang Ju wants to say but dare not say.
"Heirloom, hereditary..." Lu Huiqing chewed a few words and said, "Yes, it's just these two words."
Wang Ju's intention was achieved, and Lu Huiqing was eager to make progress, and he realized that the little emperor had the intention to reform. He couldn't say it himself, could Lu Huiqing not say it?
I hope Lu Huiqing will not be as clever as Sima Guang in the future, look at Zhang Fangping's miserableness.
Sima Guang saw that Zhong Yan had been under control in Suizhou and wanted to deal with Wang Ju, so he was a little sloppy. Of course, it was easy to find a handle. For example, Fangchang Hedu was really perfect?
If you don’t implement it, you will have shortcomings as soon as you implement it, such as some benefiting clerks are unhappy.
Or a very small number of servants who have done well are not happy either.
The key is that Wang Juyin is behind the scenes, and thus becomes an innovation led by the emperor and all the senior officials of the two governments, two systems, and three departments participated in the participation of all the senior officials of the Censorate and the three departments. How can we cause trouble for Wang Ju?
So Wang Ju put it aside and set his sights on Zhang Fangping again. This guy is not a good person. He cheated him and almost made Han Qi hate him.
This villain cannot let him be a political affairs officer! (To be continued, please search for astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!
