Su Shi and Su Che were both writing furiously, and their handwriting gradually filled the scroll.
Zhang Yue is now a latecomer and is gradually gaining ground. With the title in mind, the whole article will be easy to write based on it.
In fact, writing articles is learning, and learning is writing articles. In other words, input is output and output is input.
Regarding the stubborn diseases of the Song Dynasty, Zhang Yue sometimes did not think that deeply. But writing down your ideas is a first-class process of learning.
Just like Su Shi said that when he read history books, he always read them with a purpose in mind. Some were about wealth, some were about official administration, and some were about criminal names. In this way, every time he read it, he would get different results.
The same goes for writing articles.
When you output with a purpose in mind, the ideas you have read in the past and flashed across your mind will naturally condense in your writing.
So back to 'Qiangzhuang', this is the question.
Zhang Yue wrote that when Fu Wei made the policy, "Although the fields were open, the people were many and bored." Although the border is safe, the troops cannot withdraw. The benefits have been dredged, and the expenses have become wider.'
I heard that during the reign of Emperor Dao, the number of registered households was only 7.73 million. By the fifth year of Emperor You's reign, the number of households in the country had reached 1.53 million. Therefore, although the fields were opened, the number of registered households increased, but the number of fields per capita was still small. , this is one.
The people of the world are not evenly gathered together. The land of Wu and Yue is small but the people are large. The land of Huguang is large but the people are sparse. If the hungry and cold people are treated as sins, just to open up acres of land, it can be said that the narrowness is reduced to the widening. This is two things.
In the Jingxiang area, there are many local officials and few local officials. You can order the court officials to govern here, set up military strongholds, and take care of farm affairs, so as to cultivate and familiarize the people.
What's the point of benefiting those who have already dredged it? Gong Yin Shang Yang killed three people and stopped.
The meaning of Zhang Yue's article is to move the criminals to settle down in Jingxiang and at the same time to rehabilitate the local people. If "Qiangzhuang" is the title of the title, it is the general outline of Zhang Yue's title. Every sentence of Zhang Yue is inseparable from the word "Qiangzhuang".
Although the fields have been opened up to the point where they can be easily accessed, they have already been dredged.
The land available for cultivation has been exhausted, which means that the income has been dredged, which means that the court is unable to stimulate the economy in every possible way.
This is also a common problem in every dynasty.
In the early days of the dynasty, the household registration was reduced to a level after troubled times, and the people could continue to reclaim wasteland to restore production. At that time, the court only had to govern the world with leniency and continue to distribute the chips in its hands, and the world could be governed.
But once the population is saturated, it inevitably falls into involution. The so-called involution means that social problems cannot be solved using Pareto improvement methods.
Of course, the Song Dynasty could still make a big cake by reclaiming Huguang and introducing Champa rice. But the biggest problem in the Song Dynasty today is the serious inequality between rich and poor, that is, there is a problem with the way the cake is divided.
Why is it 'profit has been dredged'?
When Gong Yin Shangyang went to the battlefield, he said that I had no seats in the morning and no seats at the banquet. Killing three people would be enough to repay your kindness, and I would not kill one more.
The "profits" of the imperial court were withheld at all levels and could not reach the hands of Shang Yang and other scholars and people.
The involution is serious, and ultimately the effort is not proportional to the return.
At the same time, it is not easy for those with vested interests to cut leeks.
Zhang Yue went on to write, "The way of the country is to gain the advantage of one hole to be king, to be strong with two holes, to be weak with three holes, and to perish with four holes. If mergers and acquisitions are not suppressed, hundreds of holes will be exploited." Fu Wei's policy-making intention is that those in power do not focus on education, and those who govern the people mostly focus on grammar. There are many prohibitions and preventions, and the people do not know how to avoid them. The narration of the law is lenient and the officials are not afraid. '
What your Majesty is worried about, I have thought about it for a long time. Xi Zhongni said: "If the government is lenient, the people will be slow, and if it is slow, it will be corrected with violence. If it is violent, the people will be disabled, and if it is disabled, it will be lenient. If it is lenient, it will help the tyrannical; if it is tyrannical, it will be lenient, and the government will be harmonious."
Is today's government lenient or strict?
The disease lies in the fact that the top is lenient and the bottom is strict, the king is lenient and the ministers are slow, and the law is abused and violated by the people.
Zhang Yue used "Fu Wei Zhi Ce" to quote his answer.
Then the following must quote the original words from the Emperor's Policy Questions paragraph by paragraph, and answer based on this.
The profit has been dredged, which means that the country can no longer be governed with leniency. It must turn to suppress annexation, and the country must be governed with strictness.
Take back the chips you originally released, return power to the center, wait until the crisis is over, and then distribute chips to increase the stock price.
The Qin Dynasty lost the world because it was strict but not lenient, while the Yuan Dynasty was lenient but not strict. If lenient and strict were not combined, it would be unable to escape the cycle of chaos.
Tan Sitong once said that the Qin Dynasty has been under the rule of Qin for two thousand years. This sentence is wrong. The Yuan Dynasty's governance of the world was a kind of free-range politics, which was similar to the tribal management on the grassland. In the end, it also lost the world.
Compared with the Central Plains Dynasty, among the nomadic tribes on the same grassland, none of them managed the country more leniently. In the end, few lived longer than the Central Plains Dynasty.
On the other hand, the great rivals of the Song Dynasty, Xixia and Liao, were far more organized and militarized than the previous steppe tribes, while at the same time retaining the bravery and toughness of the steppe tribes.
The government is in order and the people are in order. This is an ideal system.
However, in the Song Dynasty, the government was disorderly and the people were disorderly. The court did not allow people to kill cattle, but folk beef was repeatedly banned. The court did not allow private crossings, but private crossings were rampant. The court did not allow people to moonshine wine, but private brewing became popular among the people.
This is a violation of the law.
The court's legislation was not implemented, but instead many daring people took advantage of the court's loopholes and took advantage of the opportunity to make huge profits. In the end, those who abided by the law suffered a big loss.
Zhang Yue wrote, "If the law is overused, the people will not know what to fear and what to stop. If the people violate the law, they will not be able to abide by it even if there are eternal good laws."
After writing this, Zhang Yue saw that Su Shi had finished writing and was handing in the paper.
As for Su Che, he was almost finished writing, and he was only halfway through.
At this moment, the sun was in the west, and Hu Su, Sima Guang and other examiners were moving in the hall.
Zhang Yue's sweat rolled down from the tip of his nose. He raised his sleeves to wipe away the sweat and continued to write. Fu Wei's policy was "Zhong was used to control the state in Zhou Dynasty, and the prime minister in Tang Dynasty was responsible for both expenditures. Money and valleys are also a big plan. Military divisions, the public Yes. What Chen Ping said is that the internal historian should be held responsible, and Wei Hongzhi's words should not be used as prime minister."
Zhang Yue hesitated a little when he wrote this. If he wrote that he agreed with the prime minister and the branch, he was suspected of repaying Fu Bi and Han Qi for recommending him to the medical department.
However, the power of the prime minister is secondary to the power of the king and is also part of the strong village. Without a strong prime minister, how can one be responsible for reform? Without a prime minister with financial power, how can one be said to be a strong prime minister.
Since Zhang Yue was like this, he wanted to be consistent, so he agreed in the article that the prime minister should be in charge of the three divisions.
In this way, the power of the imperial court is strengthened, and at the same time, the prime minister is a person who can be trusted and used by the officials. He will be in charge for a long time and wait for his performance to be tested. At the same time, the prime minister must possess the talents of Wei Xian.
If finances are managed improperly, the people may not be rich despite being frugal, and the country may not be strong despite being diligent, the responsibility lies with the prime minister.
At this moment, Su Che had already handed in his paper, and the sun was blocked by a cloud, making the Chongzheng Palace a little dark.
Zhang Yue was sweating profusely as he wrote, and all the examiners' eyes were fixed on him alone.
Zhang Yue has now reached the conclusion of his writing.
And at the end of the period, he made a reply and said: "Rich people strengthen the country, respect the king and the government. Eliminate disasters and bring good fortune, and change the weak and favor the thick. These were all urgent policies in the past life, but they are the top priority today."
Your Majesty's advisors on state affairs cannot express themselves fully, but what I have seen is that they have rich houses that are as close as my doorstep, and they protect the country's wealth. At this time, the annexed family should not accumulate wealth and cannibalize the income of the poor people. Suppress the strong and powerful, extend the poor and the weak, so that both the rich and the poor can benefit from it.
Your Majesty's counselors say that the way to make a country strong is to make it rich. I believe that if you want to make your country rich, you must first suppress its annexation. However, if you want to suppress annexation, you must first strengthen its stems. Strengthening cadres is the main body, suppressing and annexing is the function. Everything has its root and its end, which cannot be reversed. It is the foundation of governing the country to proceed step by step and figure it out slowly.
Strengthening its functions will respect the emperor and the dynasty, eliminate disasters and bring good fortune, change the weak and favor the thick, the law comes from the center, the order is issued, and the world will not doubt it, and follow it carefully.
I am sincere and loyal, and I have written all my heart on the paper. I dare to speak arrogantly, but Your Majesty is so merciful and I will die. I am very lucky! Chen Zhang Yue is right.
As Zhang Yue finished writing the last stroke on the paper, he finally sighed with relief.
When he raised his eyes, he saw Hu Su, Sima Guang and others looking at him in surprise.
Zhang Yue didn't know that when he finished writing the last stroke, the dark clouds that had covered the sun suddenly dispersed, and thousands of golden lights suddenly filled the front of Chongzheng Hall.
Suddenly the whole palace was filled with splendor and splendor.
Zhang Yue was immersed in the scroll and didn't feel anything at all.
But in the eyes of Hu Su, Sima Guang and others, this scene can be regarded as first-class auspiciousness.
This article consumed all Zhang Yue's energy. He stood up and wiped the sweat from his forehead and neck with his sleeves. He picked up the paper from the table and walked to Hu Su, offering it with both hands.
Hu Su didn't dare to neglect and took Zhang Yue's paper with both hands.
Hu Su said to Zhang Yue gently: "Please go to the side hall to rest first. After I review the papers, I will let you know what grade you have entered!"
Zhang Yue bowed and said, "Thank you very much."
After saying this, Zhang Yue stepped out of Chongzheng Hall.
When he came to the side hall, he saw two brothers, Su Shi and Su Che, sitting here. The palace servants had already served tea and snacks here.
When Zhang Yue saw the tea, he couldn't help but bring the teapot and drink directly from the spout to his mouth.
Su Shi and Su Che laughed when they saw Zhang Yue acting like this.
Zhang Yue wiped the corner of his mouth with his sleeve and said with a smile: "I was sweating all over in the examination room. I am really thirsty and unbearable, which made Xian Kunzhong laugh."
Su Shi smiled and said: "The same is true for us. Let's sit down and chat."
Zhang Yue nodded. After finishing the test, he immediately let go of his knot and no longer regarded them as opponents, and sat down to chat with the Ersu brothers.
While they were talking, the three of them happened to see a golden cloud in the distance outside the palace shrouding many palaces. Thousands of rays of rays of light shot out from all sides of the golden cloud, illuminating the palace as if it were covered with brocade, like a fairy palace in the sky. .
Zhang Yue and Er Su seemed to have never seen this scene before, so they walked to the window and looked out.
"Du Zhi, what do you think of this golden cloud and glow?" Su Shi asked Zhang Yue.
Zhang Yue said: "It's a good sign. Look at Jin Yun. It means the three of us have a bright future."
Su Shi smiled and said: "That's good. Although we haven't passed the test yet, you and I can be considered the same age. I hope that one day in the future we will all be here to serve the Lord."
Zhang Yue nodded and said: "Brother Zizhan said it well, it must be so."
Su Che, who was on the side, smiled slightly. He couldn't help but think of what the fortune teller said to him: "It's more valuable to meet him three times and to meet him early." Could it be that today is the day.
But it is a pity that only one of his brother and Zhang Yue can enter the third level.
While the three of them were looking at Jinyun, in the Chongzheng Hall, five examiners including Hu Su, Sima Guang, and Yang Tian had a fierce argument over the three people's papers.
