After Zhao Zhen listened to Zhao Jun's words, he began to think deeply again.
He is not stupid and naturally understands what Zhao Jun means.
Zhao Jun is right, no dynasty in the past dynasties can last forever and be passed down from generation to generation.
Maybe a natural disaster, a foreign invasion, a bad policy, or a fatuous emperor could cause such a great dynasty to collapse.
As Zhao Jun said, the first worry of all countries is the security of their political power!
Now, Zhao Zhen is considering the issue of regime security.
In ninety years, the Song Dynasty will die!
Ninety years is not a long time, nor is it a short time. If he changes to an emperor who has no ideals, he should do what he should do. Anyway, he will not survive that time. When he dies and the Song Dynasty is destroyed, it will be none of his business.
But Zhao Zhen has ideals. His throne has only been passed down to three generations, and he still wants to continue to pass it on.
The most important thing is that he has no son. He has to find a way to get a son and let his son continue to be the leader. He cannot let the Song Dynasty die like this.
So what to do?
As long as you are not hopelessly stupid, you should naturally understand that you must listen to Zhao Jun and seek change and change.
Although Zhao Jun said that every Song Dynasty emperor was mentally retarded, Zhao Zhen is actually used to it now.
If one day Zhao Jun suddenly stopped scolding the Emperor of Song Dynasty, he would find it strange.
Now after listening to Zhao Jun's in-depth analysis of the imperial power system of the Song Dynasty and what was needed for the industrial revolution, he had many new insights.
For example, the feudal system cannot last long, the interests of all parties need to be balanced, productivity improvement is to make the cake bigger, the Song Dynasty has entered the early stage of capitalism, etc.
This was due to Zhao Jun's broad vision guidance, which allowed Zhao Zhen to not focus on the situation he encountered before, but to see the future development path of the Song Dynasty and the country's direction of becoming powerful and hegemonic.
In the past, Zhao Zhen would only think that the problem facing the Song Dynasty now was how to peacefully coexist with the powerful Liao Kingdom, how to stabilize the situation in the northwest and avoid conflict with Xixia.
There are also internal instability, riots and the like that are constantly rising in various places.
But now Zhao Zhen sees that the Song Dynasty may be able to become prosperous and powerful, and may be able to move towards an unprecedented "broad road" through the industrial revolution.
Although he didn't know whether the Song Dynasty could successfully move towards a bright future with Zhao Jun's help in the future, he knew that he had no choice.
Because the sword of Damocles named "Jingkang Shame" was already hanging above his head.
After learning that the country would be destroyed in a few decades and the humiliation suffered by the Song Dynasty royal family, Zhao Zhen became extremely frightened.
Not only were they afraid that the country was about to perish, but they were also afraid that the imperial power would be gone, the majesty of the emperor and Zhao would be wiped out, and the Song Dynasty would eventually be submerged in the dust of history in the catastrophe.
The leaders of any country will fall into such anxiety and worry after learning that their future country and their descendants will soon perish.
They must find a way to stabilize this regime.
Even if you know this outcome and know what will happen in the future, but you don't change or stop it, you will still be unable to change the fate of the Song Dynasty's demise and the course of history.
Just like Zhao Jun said.
Even if the Zhao family produces an emperor like Li Shimin, what's the use?
The roots are rotten. As long as there is another Hu Hai or Song Huizong, such a country will fail sooner or later, and the Song Dynasty will still be wiped out.
Therefore, real change is not as simple as changing the emperor, but requires comprehensive reforms from top to bottom.
There is no best system, only the most suitable system.
He must find a new way out.
It does not seek to dominate the universe, but only hopes to become a powerful country in the East.
Even if it can only continue the Song Dynasty and change the fate of Jingkangsha.
Thinking of this, he looked at Fan Zhongyan and nodded slightly.
Fan Zhongyan understood, raised his head and looked at the sky and said, "Teacher Zhao, it's afternoon, the sun is very bright, go back and take a rest."
Unknowingly, it was already past two o'clock in the afternoon, when the sun was shining brightly.
Zhao Jun also felt hot all over and said, "Okay then."
"I'll help Teacher Zhao back first."
Fan Zhongyan pretended to say hello to the "villagers".
Lu Yijian and the others just said things like, "Teacher Zhao, please walk slowly", "Let's talk again tomorrow", "Come to my house for dinner next time".
"Okay, okay, okay." "Okay, let's talk tomorrow." "Let's go eat after my eyes heal."
Zhao Jun also said the scene words and responded to them one by one.
He actually didn't know who these people were, he only knew their names but not their faces, but that didn't stop him from building a good relationship first and getting to know them well after his eyes healed.
After all, he will not have to stay for only one or two days in the future. If he wants to complete the tasks assigned by the organization, he will have to stay in Nini Village for two years.
Soon Zhao Jun was helped away by Fan Zhongyan.
Everyone kept watching his back disappearing from the door of the distant room, and then followed Zhao Zhen into the Guanjia Hall.
Zhao Zhen entered the palace, sat on the Grand Master's chair, looked around at everyone, and slowly said, "My lords, what do you think?"
Everyone, look at me and I'll look at you.
In the past, everyone expressed their opinions, but now they have become extremely silent.
The first two things Zhao Jun mentioned, the scientific system and natural environment issues, are all things they can talk about.
But the last system, is that a topic they are qualified to talk about?
Are they supposed to tell Zhao Zhen?
His Majesty.
For the sake of the Song Dynasty, I have wronged you. We serve Zhao Jun as the prime minister, and you become the mascot president, transforming the world from a family into a republic?
If this is true, even if Zhao Zhen could not kill the scholar-bureaucrat, he would probably end up being imprisoned until death.
Fortunately, the silence did not last long.
After a while, Lu Yijian said: "Guan Jian, the Song Dynasty has its own national conditions. Zhao Jun only understands it from a few words in the history books, so there is no need to pay attention to his nonsense."
Wang Zeng also said: "Later generations will not be without kings and states. In the past, we did not know how to escape the cycle of dynasty destruction in the future. Now that we know it, we will naturally know the path we should take in the future."
"Yes, as Zhao Jun said, the country's political power is not the system, but whether the country is internally stable, can make the people live a prosperous life, and can make foreign enemies fearful. As long as these can be achieved, whether it is the emperor or the president as Zhao Jun said, Parliament and stuff like that, it’s all the same.”
"Haha, I don't believe that there is no power struggle or interest dispute in the so-called presidential parliament. In the final analysis, it is still a question of whether the country is strong. Now we have already stood at the forefront of history. Knowing the subsequent development, we may not be able to let it go My country becomes stronger, thereby changing the fate of the so-called feudal dynasty that Zhao Jun said is reincarnation."
"Yes, officials. Although Zhao Jun's words are unpleasant, for our Song Dynasty, this is a gift from God. If there were Zhao Jun in the Han and Tang Dynasties, how could we have the Song Dynasty today?"
Everyone was talking about each other, but in fact they still avoided the core issue that Zhao Jun said.
Whether it is a presidential system, a parliamentary system, or an electoral system, there is one problem that cannot be separated, that is, avoiding the family world, and the family world is the key to the problem.
It's just that this thing is the backbone of the Song Dynasty's imperial power. These ministers just wanted to reform and make the Song Dynasty strong, not to move their heads, so they wisely ignored what Zhao Jun said and no one mentioned it at all.
Zhao Zhen nodded and said: "Of course I understand these truths. This boy Zhao Jun scolded his ancestors too harshly. Although his words are not pleasant to listen to, if I want to revive the Song Dynasty, I still have to rely on him. I understand this The truth is, it’s just the world system he mentioned..."
I don't know if he asked casually or if he had ulterior motives, but Zhao Zhen brought it up himself.
Lu Yijian immediately said: "Officials need to know that Zhao Jun hates the Song Dynasty system because he feels that the Emperor of the Song Dynasty has no foresight. However, now that a person from a thousand years has appeared, are you still afraid that the future emperor will not have foresight?"
"Yes, what people fear most is not having lofty ideals and living in confusion. We used to only worry about the country, but could not see the future. Now that we have seen the future, what fear do we have in our hearts?"
"I feel that although Zhao Jun was reckless, what he said was still very insightful. He said that Fan Zhongyan was only reckless in Qingli's reforms and ignored the interests of officials all over the world, and was attacked by everyone. Isn't this not Does it mean that he is a thoughtful person? If he comes to reform, is there any reason why he cannot respond to the reform? "
"If Zhao Jun can complete the scientific system, we can find ways to make up for the resource deficiencies. As long as the government has the insight and foresight we have today, and has the full support of the government, we may not be able to trigger the industrial revolution and create the firearms that Zhao Jun mentioned. If you have firearms, are you still afraid of the Liao people and the Xixia people?"
"Although Zhao Jun hates the feudal system and governs the world, it does not mean that it must be backward. Although there may not be a wise emperor from generation to generation, as long as the future is well planned, even if the emperor is mediocre, the country can develop according to orderly planning. "
"Exactly, the emperor cannot rule the world with the power of one person, doesn't he still have ministers? Many ministers should be wise and know the future path. They can lead the country by acting as the emperor's think tank."
The ministers started chatting one after another.
The first sentence at the beginning of "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is the general trend of the world. If we divide for a long time, we will unite and unite for a long time. The ancients have long known that history is a cycle of reincarnation, but they don't know how to get out of this cycle.
Now that Zhao Jun has given the answer, it's like they have found a life-saving straw. Everyone has a new goal.
However, this is still the core issue.
In fact, Zhao Jun does not hate the autocratic system, but hates the family world.
Because he also said that Mao Xiong had blossomed into great glory in the hands of his loving father, transforming from an agricultural country into the world's largest heavy industrial country in just a few years.
This shows that if there is a far-sighted emperor and a group of capable ministers and generals, great achievements can be achieved.
It's just that Zhao Jun hates the family world because not every generation of emperors is wise and powerful. Once the emperor is stupid, like Song Huizong, who is incompetent and loses his ambition, it will lead to the destruction of the country.
So the core of this problem is how to solve the problem of family and world.
Lu Yijian and Wang Zeng cleverly avoided it and did not answer directly. They just said that what the family is afraid of is that the emperor will not be able to do it in the future, so wouldn't it be enough to teach the emperor a lesson?
After all, Zhao Jun has a vision of the next thousand years. How many years can an emperor live?
Just like the two five-year plans made by Mao Xiong, as long as the tasks for the next few hundred years can be arranged well and the country completes them step by step, no matter how incompetent the emperor is, the country's order can always be stabilized.
After hearing what everyone said, Zhao Zhen nodded slightly, feeling a little relieved.
He actually mentioned it that way just now.
If Zhao Jun's words really wake up these ministers, and they want to do something like Huo Guang during the Han Dynasty to evade the emperor's power, it will be great fun.
Moreover, there is the sword of Jingkang Shame hanging over his head, which is always uneasy.
But he couldn't just say what he was thinking.
Because Zhao Jun said that the interests of the ministers were not consistent, but they temporarily abandoned their positions in front of Zhao Zhen and united together.
If you do something detrimental to their interests in the future, it may cause troublesome consequences.
For example, they could expose Zhao Jun's affairs, or secretly create obstacles to hinder reform and development.
Therefore, he needs the ministers to express their stance, which can be regarded as a test.
Moreover, Zhao Zhen has already understood the meaning of dividing the cake after listening to classes for so many days.
He was considering the future and after Zhao Jun's eyes recovered and successfully captured Zhao Jun, he began to discuss the Qingli New Deal reform.
By then, he hoped that Zhao Jun could come up with a plan to see if he could persuade Lu Yijian, Wang Zeng, Fan Zhongyan and others to form an interest group.
Now these people actually only relied on Zhao Jun's appearance and the influence of Zhao Zhen to stand together briefly.
In fact, it can be seen from these Tianchaotang struggles that they are just superficially in harmony with each other.
Last year, Li Di's group and Lu Yijian's group had a fight. Not long after Lu Yijian kicked Li Di out of the court, there was a new internal fight this year.
Fan Zhongyan Group and Lu Yijian Group did not deal with them.
Wang Zeng Group and Lu Yijian Group also refused to deal with them.
Wang Sui and Sheng Du were watching the show nearby.
Zhao Zhen was not stupid. As a famous wise emperor in the Song Dynasty, he could barely be ranked among the top thirty emperors in the entire Chinese history. He just had a softer personality and was kind-hearted, which does not mean that he was a real fool.
He hoped that his group of ministers could put aside party disputes and put national interests first, so he wanted to see if they could pool their interests to solve the problem.
It's a pity that he feels that he can't see clearly as Zhao Jun, nor does he have the ability.
We can only wait until Zhao Jun's eyes recover.
"I also agree with you guys. If the Song Dynasty wants to have long-term peace and stability, it must make the country strong. Zhao Jun said that at this time, the West is far behind us. Our scientific and technological level ranks first in the world."
Zhao Zhen looked around the crowd and said: "If you want to be strong, you first need to have a plan. Like the loving father Zhao Jun said, if you want to change the country's system, let's first discuss how to carry out system changes and develop. stand up."
At this moment, Zhao Zhen had a dream in his heart.
If a person has no dreams, what is the difference between him and a salted fish?
And once a person has a dream, he is no longer a salted fish, but a salted fish with a dream.
Zhao Zhen plans to be a salted fish with dreams.
He wanted to make the Song Dynasty strong and prosperous, so that the Song Dynasty would no longer be reviled by future generations, and let the flag of the Song Dynasty be planted all over the world!
