I am the king of the dead

The decree of separate residence in sub-tun is a recent order issued by Wang Fu.

It is to carry out a large-scale clearing of the entire Kang country, and then enclose the specific number of acres and pastures of the Taiji, Teqin, Otoke, and chiefs of the tribes, and no longer establish Zhuangtian.

Every eleven households is a Jia, and every 110 households is a mile.

Wang Fu was restricting the acquisition of land by the tyrannical and powerful, and the land was evenly exempted from taxation.

Gegan Taiji, as Taiji of the Heshuo Special Department, was also quite dissatisfied when he was canonized as the King of Saikan during the Zhengtong period of the Ming Dynasty. , cattle and sheep, why?"

As soon as Gan Taiji's words came out, the counselors began to discuss, fearing Wang Fu's prestige, they dared not object.

But now Wang Fu's father-in-law and one of Wang Fu's confidantes are standing up against each other, so they naturally speak freely.

The exemption of taxation for equal land hurts the short-term interests of these counselors, Taiji, Teqin, Otoke, and chiefs.

Boyan Timur and He Shuo looked at each other in blank dismay. They expected that the order to separate the village would be opposed, but they did not expect that even Ashina Hehuo and Wang Fu's father-in-law would stand up to oppose it.

Wang Fu frowned, and the ceremonial officers vigorously paused the halberds in their hands and shouted loudly: "Quiet!"

The counselors finally fell silent.

Of course Wang Fu expected that everyone would object, but he fell silent amidst the shouts of the correcting officials.

This has surprised Wang Fu quite a bit.

You must know that the previous quarrel in the Advisory Council was full of obscenities, shoes were flying all over the sky, the chaos was more lively than the market in Samarkand, and the correctors couldn't stop it.

Now the domed auditorium finally has some shape, at least it looks like a place for discussing politics.

Wang Fu looked quiet and said, "Listen to me, everyone."

"Do you want to be rich for a lifetime, or for at least 200 years?"

"Ashinahehuo, tell me."

Ashina and Huo frowned and said: "Of course it is 200 years of wealth! Is there still a choice?"

"Where's Gegan Taiji?" Wang Fu looked at Gegan and asked again.

After thinking for a while, he said, "I'm not stupid after 200 years of wealth."

The answers of these two people were as expected, just like everyone wants to live forever, everyone hopes that their family can be prosperous forever.

Wang Fu tapped the golden hammer in his hand and said: "Meat eaters are contemptible, and they can't seek far. The ancients did not deceive me."

"If you want 200 years of wealth, just listen to me."

Ashina Hehuo was despised for a while, but he didn't care about it. He didn't know as much about Sinology as his daughter Ashinayi. Hehuo said loudly: "Wang Zizheng wants to divide our land, so there must be a reason. , I don’t agree with the sentence that meat eaters despise and fail to seek far.”

"Me too!" Gegan Taiji looked at Ashina Hehuo who was still on the hard top, and said bravely.

Opposing Wang Fu is much more terrifying than opposing, because Wang Fu is a scholar and a Jinshi of the Ming Dynasty.

"Since you need a reason, I'll give you a reason." Wang Fu didn't care about Ashina Hehuo and Gegan's disobedience, he wasn't so narrow-minded.

Wang Fu looked at these counselors and said in a vibrating voice: "You have given the fields and livestock to the people, and if there is any war, they will fight with you."

"Because what they protected before was your fields, your livestock, and your wealth. After equalizing the land and exempting them from taxation, they are protecting their own fields, their own livestock, and their own wealth."

"At the same time, it is also protecting you."

"Is this reason sufficient?"

There was no sound in the auditorium with the dome of the Advisory Council.

Wang Fu did not quote the classics to explain the general principles, nor did he summarize the shortcomings of slavery and enfeoffment, nor did he talk about public morality, private morality, and civilization. Only the Ming Dynasty is qualified to talk about it.

Wang Fu talked about cattle and horses, and he regarded the people as his own cattle and horses to graze.

He said a very simple logic.

Wang Fu said sharply: "When you are milking the cows, don't you let your own cows and sheep be milked hungry?"

"Can it be squeezed out?!"

6 Chapter Ninety

Wang Fu's question made all the counselors in the Council of Councilors stop talking.

When milking cows, if the cows and sheep are hungry, what will be squeezed out in the end will only be blood, not milk.

Ashinahehuo and Gegantaiji looked at each other, sat down, and no longer objected to Wang Fu's order to separate the settlements.

Only then did Wang Fu's face soften a little, and he said earnestly: "I know, you are all muttering in secret when I ask you to take out these fields, pastures, and livestock. Is it a good name?"

"Did you think so?"

Of course no one would answer Wang Fu's question, but in fact most of the counselors think so.

In their view, Wang Fu, a powerful minister, had just usurped the title of king, so he naturally wanted to cut their flesh to stabilize the situation in Kang and gain fame.

Wang Fu sneered and said, "There are frequent internal strife in the Timur Kingdom, and the king's flag at the top of the city changes every year. May I ask where the rich and powerful families in the city are today?"

"Even Wang Qi has changed. Where are those prominent families in the past?"

Civilization is like Daming. When Emperor Taizongwen came to the throne, only Zhu Wengui was left in Zhu Yunwen’s family. Those parasites who lay on Daming’s body to suck blood during the Jianwen period were killed by Zhu Di. Sent to Yongning Temple for fishing.

After the Han king Zhu Gaoxu rebelled, he was punished by all his families.

This is still the Ming Dynasty where the social consensus is the Three Guides and Five Constants Dalun, and the courtiers can persuade and advise with the friendship of relatives.

The land of the Western Regions has been in war for a long time, and the liquidation after winning the throne is even more bloody and cruel.

The social consensus here is not benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom and filial piety. The harder the fist, the greater the truth.

Wang Fu took a sip of tea from the water cup, and asked the counselors to think for a while before continuing: "Since ancient times, the Hulu has no luck for a hundred years, and the Central Plains Dynasty has been around for two or three hundred years. Why is that?"

"In fact, to put it bluntly, if the emperor who founded the country can truly achieve the eight characters of equalizing land, exempting taxes and restricting mergers, it will be at least two or three hundred years of national fortune."

"The Central Plains always talks about ZTE. What is ZTE?"

"In fact, to put it bluntly, it's just a matter of making a fuss on the land, finding a way to equalize the land, exempting it, and restricting the greedy tyrants, letting them take their claws, appease the people, and let them live and work in peace. "

"If the emperor and courtiers who presided over the reform can win a big victory in the battle with the powerful, it will naturally continue the country's fortune for decades."

"If you lose the battle, you will die without a whole body."

Although Wang Fu's tone was not very harsh, his words could be said to be like thunder, piercing into the heart!

The Central Plains has a long history and a rich history, so it may not be possible to fully understand the whole picture, but looking through the history, it is familiar and similar everywhere.

If you look carefully, you can see the words between the words. The entire book is filled with the eight characters [restricted mergers, equalization of land and exemption from taxes].

As long as it is done, a new dynasty can be established; as long as it is done, it can be rejuvenated.

If you can't do it, you can only watch the people who can do it sit on the mountain; if you can't do it, you can only watch Guochao roll off the cliff.

Wang Fu did not give any examples of the Central Plains dynasty.

For example, he can talk about the foundational land system for military meritorious service established in the Qin Dynasty, the equal land system established in the Sui Dynasty, and the Lijia system and the Military Guard Law of the Ming Dynasty.

Talk about the aristocratic families of the Han Dynasty, talk about the corruption of the land equalization system during the Tang Xuanzong period, and talk about the corruption of the military and health law and the Lijia system.

Wang Fu hoped that these counselors could ask them out.

But these counselors all stared at Wang Fu with horror in their eyes.

When the Central Plains dynasty was in full swing, it could swallow a golden horse and an iron horse like a tiger, drink horses and Persia, and encompass the entire Western Regions, a true kingdom of heaven.

But the culture of the Central Plains Dynasty is so complicated and difficult to understand.

But Wang Fu's summary was so incisive that they didn't know what to ask for a while.

Wang Fu looked around, but no one asked any questions. His strong desire to express could not be fulfilled, so he continued, "What are you asking for, these mud-legged people?"

"Isn't it just asking for the tiller to have a field? Isn't it just asking for the wife and children to be warm on the kang? Is it difficult? A little leakage from your fingers is enough."

"Give it to them, and they will naturally work for you. When someone wants to move your property, they will go all out, because moving your property means moving their property."

"I've finished my words, is there any objection?"

Boyan Timur was the one who knew Sinology best in this group of Teqin, Taiji, and Otoke. He stretched out his hand and said, "Wang Zizheng, I am not opposed to the order of separate settlements."

"I just want to ask, since the scholar-bureaucrats in the Central Plains know the way of the rise and fall of this country, why do dynasties change in the world?"

Wang Fu smiled and said: "Didn't I say it before? Meat eaters are contemptible, and they can't seek far. How can they see the danger in the distance when they only care about the meat in front of them?"

"It's like you are blocking the separate residence order."

Boyan Timur said convincingly: "So that's the case, I understand, Wang Zizheng is worthy of being a talent in the world."

Boyan Timur didn't believe it, he didn't believe at all that all Jinshi of the Ming Dynasty understood this truth, people like Wang Fu were also rare dragons and phoenixes in the Ming Dynasty.

Otherwise, how could Oara defeat the Ming army and capture King Jili?

In this regard, His Majesty the Great Emperor also thinks so.

Whenever there was a shortage of manpower, the emperor would always think of Wang Fu who was far away in Samarkand, and occasionally scold Daming for employing people.

For this reason, the Emperor Ming was annoyed more than once. When Wang Fu rebelled against him, he should have thrown Wang Fu into prison!

After all, the Imperial Prison of the Ming Dynasty is a place to cultivate talents and store hope.

From the beginning of the Ming Dynasty to the end of the Ming Dynasty, there were endless talents in the imperial prison of the Ming Dynasty.

For example, in the Battle of the Capital, Marquis Shi Heng of Wuqing, who dismounted from his horse and fought to the death, became the commander-in-chief immediately after he was released from prison, fighting a tough battle of life and death.

For example, at the end of the Ming Dynasty, Sun Chuanting, the governor of the Qin Army, also walked out of the imperial prison and formed the strongest army in the late Ming Dynasty with 6 taels of silver.

Gegan Taiji stood up and said solemnly: "I don't have any doubts. Everything is according to Wang Zizheng's words. Longevity is God, and he sent Haidongqing like Wang Zizheng to guide us forward. .”

Haidongqing is a kind of handsome eagle. In the grassland culture, it is the angel sent by Changshengtian to the world.

"Changshengtian blesses you. Thank you Wang Zhizheng for being so patient and explaining everything in detail. This is the blessing of Changshengtian and the great fortune of Kang Guo." He Huo also stood up and expressed his opinion.

Wang Fu looked at Ge Qian and He Huo, if they didn't know that these two were really opposed, others would think that these two were pretending to be loyal and singing a double reed with Wang Fu.

Conscience of heaven and earth, Wang Fu really didn't sing oboe with them.

Wang Fu thought about it carefully, then sat up straight and said, "Then this decree of separate settlements has been agreed? Then start voting by secret ballot."

The voting method of Kang Guo's Advisory Council is a secret ballot. For a large-scale national policy resolution, two-thirds of the councilors must be approved before it can be implemented.

The method of counting the votes is very simple, the left is agreed, and the right is opposed, as long as the traces are left, put the votes in the box brought by the correcting officer.

Wang Fu quickly took the ballot box in his hand, shook it vigorously a few times, and then began to vote one by one under the witness of Boyan Timur, He Shuo, Gegan, Ashina Hehuo and others. Zhang took it out and counted.

"All pass." Wang Fu frowned and said: "One more time."

"I have always been like this. In this auditorium, even if we quarreled, we would express our opinions. I will not hold grudges against anyone. But if the resolution is passed and people leave this auditorium, those who are obedient and vicious will never be forgiven." .”

Wang Fu emphasized again, the basic rules of the dome auditorium of the Advisory Council.

"Recount the votes again." Wang Fu didn't believe that the unanimous vote was passed. How could he get such a result with just a few words?

The result of the recounting of the votes surprised Wang Fu, and it was still a unanimous vote.

Wang Fu was a little silent, picked up the small golden hammer, and instead of ringing the bronze bell, he said: "Since the unanimous vote has passed, if you have any questions, you can ask them now, and I will answer them one by one."

Although a consensus has been reached, it does not mean that the Minister of State has no doubts.

After the first counselor who had a question stood up and asked the question, the others also stood up one after another and asked their concerns, and Wang Fu answered them one by one.

"Ding!"

Wang Fu picked up a small golden hammer and rang the bronze bell, saying: "The decree of separating the settlements, pass."

"This policy is related to the prosperity and decline of the country of Kang. If you still have questions, you can find me in the Advisory Courtyard. I have time at any time. If you feel that I am not good at talking, you can ask Boyan Timur, Gegan Taiji, and He Huo Teqin will inquire on his behalf."

"I'll emphasize it again, those who violate the yang and yin will be killed!"

The counselors left the domed auditorium after discussing in low voices, while Wang Fu leaned on his seat, a little confused. He thought it would take a long, long time for everyone to approve the decree of separating the settlements.

Wang Fu even planned to gamble on something, such as promising that within five years, the property transferred would be doubled back to their hands, and he would use his reputation as a guarantee to carry out the separation order.

Value is created by labor. Wang Fu has no doubt that under the order of dividing villages and living separately, the wealth created by the labor of nearly [-] million people in Kang State is huge.

However, things went so smoothly, which made Wang Fu somewhat unexpected.

"What's bothering Wang Zizheng?" Boyan said rather relaxed, "Do you think things are going too smoothly?"

Wang Fu nodded, expressing his affirmation.

Boyan Timur looked as he should have done, and said quite calmly: "Actually, there is nothing unexpected. I would like to ask, is it possible for Wang Zizheng's words to be so straightforward in Fengtian Palace?"

"You Central Plains always talk about the journey of the great way. In my opinion, what Wang Zizheng said is the journey of the great way."
