"Oh! This is a good thing. Later, I will order the Ministry of Rites to discuss specific matters with your country. I heard that Young Master Jing was born in the Black and White Academy and studied Legalism and Confucianism. I wonder what your views are on governing the country?"
Ying Tu asked sincerely. Reform and strengthening are stages and tests that every country must go through.
Countries that have made it this far and have not yet perished have basically experienced the reform. This does not mean that the reform will definitely become stronger or may perish, because the reform, in this context, is actually a war between the old and new forces. , in this war, some people must have their interests harmed, and some people must have their interests increased.
No one wants to suffer a loss while enriching others.
Some reforms can destroy your country if you are not careful, so some people also call the reforms a huge gamble. Success will lead to strength, and failure will lead to destruction.
The key is a strong country, a deep foundation, the king's firm determination, plus a suitable person and a suitable set of laws.
Da Qin has gone through six generations, during which it has already gone through a reform. That reform made Da Qin from a small country to one of the nine great powers today. However, today, Da Qin has fallen into a bottleneck, and it has become a bottleneck with the Jin Dynasty. The country was defeated in the war and was suppressed by the seven eastern countries. The domestic nobles encroached on the national interests, but the country could not expand or increase in size.
If it continues like this, it will definitely lead to destruction.
However, the Qin State, which was beleaguered internally and externally, was not suitable for reform at all. The failure of the reform and chronic death, if not for the arrival of Ying Tu, were actually the two endings of the Qin Dynasty.
But things were different now. Because of the emergence of Ying Tu and the emergence of the system, Great Qin's national power had undergone tremendous changes.
The realm of heaven and humans is increasing, the number of soldiers and generals is increasing, the number of civil servants is increasing, and the food and financial resources will also increase.
These can bring enough foundation for reform.
Yesterday, Ying Tu had already discussed this matter with Bao Zheng, Li Si, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui and other ministers.
And let them discuss a new law suitable for Da Qin.
Today's Great Qin is still dominated by nobles, and rewards farmers and strengthens the army. Over the years, these are the results of the last reform. Because of these results, Great Qin's strength has been improving, and the country has been getting stronger. But all this The premise is that Great Qin has always been able to win, and it has always been winning, until nine years ago Great Qin was suppressed by the Seven Kingdoms and lost in the war with the Jin Kingdom.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see the increasing momentum and complete changes. Da Qin has turned from prosperity to decline in recent years.
The Kingdom of Jin is waiting, and the Seven Kingdoms are also waiting, waiting for the Qin Dynasty to completely collapse, and then they will divide it and eat it.
The King of Qin naturally knew all this. The civil and military officials of the entire dynasty were all knowledgeable and talented people. How could they not see the crisis in the Qin Dynasty? However, after so many years, they have become vested interests in this policy. If the law is changed, it will be damaged. What's more, today's Great Qin is not suitable for reform. No one is willing to take the initiative to mention this matter, let alone bear the consequences.
Therefore, knowing all this, I can only cover my head and rush forward.
So King Qin launched that war this year. King Qin knew that the reform did not meet the conditions, so he could only continue to drink doves to quench his thirst. As long as he could defeat the Kingdom of Jin, or even destroy it, the Qin Dynasty would not be immune to all poisons. It might not be possible to break the situation.
However, the Jin Kingdom did not respect martial ethics and let the Heavenly Realm take action, completely shattering Qin's hopes.
When the Seven Kingdoms come out to impose sanctions on the Jin Kingdom, anyone with a discerning eye can see who they are leaning towards.
The three mansions of Xuanfeng, Xuanlin, and Xuanhuo were already in dilapidated state after being ruined by the Kingdom of Jin. Taking them back at this time would be like throwing a huge burden on the Qin Kingdom. This compensation would not only not solve the Qin Dynasty's predicament, but also On the contrary, it will accelerate the demise of Great Qin.
At this time, Da Qin has been investing in the three mansions without any return.
The people of Great Qin looked like they had taken back the land of the Three Prefectures, which was very beautiful. In fact, only they could know the hard work involved.
Why is Ying Shun so happy and even somewhat indulgent towards Ying Tu? Isn't it because he sees hope in Ying Tu? Yes, Ying Tu at this time is the hope of Great Qin. It's not that Ying Shun can see that. There were so many things, but just seeing what Ying Tu brought to Da Qin was enough.
Two celestial beings and a large number of capable ministers and generals.
These will slowly turn into the foundation of Great Qin. Even if it cannot completely solve the problems of Great Qin, it will be enough to make Great Qin glorious for a long time.
And as long as there is time, Ying Tu's talent may not only be able to get Da Qin out of its predicament, but also lead Da Qin's trapped dragons to ascend to heaven, just like the words of their ancestors.
Ying Tu doesn't think the system can solve all his problems for him. After all, people can't place their hopes on others, even the system.
If Great Qin wants to become strong, it cannot be driven by the limited number of Chinese civil servants and military generals. It may be strong for a while, but what about in the future?
During the rise of Great Qin, many capable ministers and generals appeared, but they are people, not data or machines. Even the civil servants and generals summoned by Ying Tu will spread out in Great Qin as time goes by. Ye, build a family, and when the time comes, they may also become part of the evil.
Therefore, Ying Tu must lay the foundation of Great Qin at this most suitable time.
Yesterday, Ying Tu also talked with Xiao Yingning about Han Jing. Han Jing was Xiao Yingning's senior brother, but compared to Xiao Yingning, Han Jing was more outstanding and dazzling.
Xiao Yinning is a genius, but there is really no shortage of geniuses in the Black and White Academy, and Han Jing is the number one genius in the Black and White Academy, which shows his ability.
If there was no system, Ying Tu would think of keeping him in Qin forever. Such a person would be too great a threat to the Qin Dynasty.
However, it is not necessary now. Han Jing is at the top, and there are many people at the top around Ying Tu. Maybe they are worse than Han Jing, but what about three or five?
The rise of Great Qin only requires time.
However, it is still possible to squeeze out the value without killing. According to Xiao Yingning, Han Jing is very knowledgeable about reforms, and even publicly said that the hidden dangers of the Nine Kingdoms and what kind of reforms are suitable, of course, are all It's just a general talk. Even if you listen to it, you can't get the essence. It can be said that Han Jing's research on reform may not be comparable to that of the capable ministers summoned by Ying Tu.
It’s not shameful to ask, what if Han Jing really says it?
Han Jing was a little surprised when he saw that Ying Tu actually asked about it, but then he started talking. It seemed that he had no intention of hiding anything.
"The strength of Qin lies in the reform, and the weakness of Qin lies in the right times. As time passes and the situation changes, adhering to the old laws is the way to death. Farmers in Qin are taxed at 90%. If there is a disaster year and hungry people are everywhere, maybe the old Qin people..."
