Having said this, the emperor looked at Huang Qiong, although he was somewhat hesitant at first. But in the blink of an eye, he still said in an extremely firm tone: "Let's not accept this clause of yours. I still said what I said, everything is about stability now, I can't let the hearts of this clan in the world be chilled."
"Father, if you want to benefit the country by life and death, how can you avoid it because of good or bad luck? When I drafted these provisions, I never thought about leaving any way out for myself. Nowadays, land annexation is becoming more and more serious in the world, and losing land has become a The number of refugees is increasing day by day. And the imperial court’s revenue is declining almost every year.”
"If you don't get seriously ill and use strong medicine that can remove the roots, but just seek stability, the contradictions will only get deeper and deeper. Once the general outbreak arrives, I am afraid that the situation will be out of control in an instant. My father is the lover of all people in the world. The co-owner is not just the co-owner of the clan and officials."
"Besides, I don't want to completely deprive the land under the name of the clan. I just want to use some means, such as redemption, to gradually return these lands to the people. And adopt a series of measures, Gradually solve the increasingly insufficient annual revenue of the imperial court."
"Father, it is better to prevent civil unrest than to prevent Sichuan. You have always loved the people, are you willing to see more and more ordinary people occupying the world, and their lives increasingly falling into dire straits? I really don't know, those people How could a clan that does nothing but eat, drink, have fun, and amass wealth become the foundation of my great Qi dynasty?"
"Could it be that just because they were born in the Heavenly Family, they can exploit the common people without scruples? Could it be that just because they were born in the Heavenly Family, the national law can be exempted from them? These days, my son has read the files you gave me, these clans The actions they committed can be described vividly, and the crimes they committed are too numerous to describe."
"They act so recklessly, what can the common people rely on? Apart from being born with a good life and being born in a heavenly home, what else can they rely on? Apart from that, are they capable of governing the country with literature, or are they capable of bringing peace to the country with military force? Look at them What they did is just a group of moths in my Da Qi Dynasty who are greedily sucking the flesh and blood of the imperial court and hollowing out the foundation of the imperial court."
"As for whether it offends anyone, or which group of people, I don't care too much. If you don't do something, you won't offend anyone. But as long as you do something, you can't not offend people at all. If you do something, With the thought of being at both ends of the spectrum, I might as well do nothing, wouldn’t that be simpler?”
As soon as Huang Qiong's stubborn temper came over, she didn't care and spoke out her thoughts truthfully. He really didn't understand. If scholars were the foundation of the imperial court, this could barely be said to be true. After all, in this era, the popularity of education is far less than it was in my previous life.
The government's decrees were circulated, and even the opening of schools to recruit scholars to govern the world all relied on these scholars. What's more, these scholars have the right to speak. The things written by their pens can be written as black and white, and the white can also be written as black. History is as sharp as a knife, and this is not just talk.
But how come those clans who only know about the general situation and make money, eat, drink, have fun, and play with women all day long become the foundation of the world in his words? These humanities cannot govern the world, and military force cannot protect the country. The shoulders cannot carry the load, and the arms cannot hoe the fields. Without this privilege, these people would probably have starved to death.
Huang Qiong didn't understand. He just wanted to take back some of the privileges of these clans. How could he shake the foundation of the country? Moreover, these clans can be regarded as the foundation of the country, regardless of their origins, but only based on their actions. To say that they are a group of moths is an understatement in Huang Qiong's opinion.
"Wantless, who gave you the courage to talk nonsense like this? According to you, if I don't do what you say, the disaster of our great Qi nation's destruction is just around the corner? Are you trying to be alarmist, or are you threatening me? ?" Huang Qiong's words made the emperor extremely angry. If Jia Quan, an outsider, hadn't been present, the emperor would have gone crazy.
"I don't dare. I just reflected the true situation of Da Qi truthfully. I don't dare to threaten my father. I and my father are father and son, but they are also monarchs and ministers. As sons, if I, because of my responsibility, It's important. If you are afraid of offending others, you will fool your father, which is unfilial."
"As a subject, you cannot tell the Holy King the truth about the world. Not accepting loyal advice is disloyal. Father, you can't let your subjects be unfaithful and unfilial people." Huang Qiong is very stubborn, but this This time he was very skillful. When a big label of disloyalty and unfilial piety is put down, the emperor is angry in his heart and unable to express his anger on his lips.
"You?" Sure enough, after Huang Qiong said this, the emperor was immediately speechless. He can't say that Huang Qiong's unfaithful and unfilial remarks are wrong, right? You know, most of the imperial courts in ancient China governed the country with loyalty and filial piety. Although the ancestral family traditions cannot be changed at all times, which hinders the ability to keep up with the changes of the times, sometimes it is just as useful to use a big hat to suppress others.
When the emperor was struck by Huang Qiong's words, he was speechless. Huang Qiong had just been repeatedly contradicting the emperor. He was so frightened that he couldn't help but pull Huang Qiong's clothes from behind to signal him not to get too stiff with the emperor. Jia Quan, who didn't want to anger the emperor too much, couldn't help but give a thumbs up in his heart.
Although my master is sometimes a little impulsive, he is also really good at talking. To be able to be so upright made the emperor in front of him, who I heard was also very rough-tongued and even had a bit of a venomous tongue, speechless. After these few words, Jia Quan bet that even if the emperor was angry, he might not be able to express it.
Huang Qiong didn't care what Jia Quan was thinking. Seeing that the emperor was silenced by him, he had no intention of giving up: "Father, I don't want to eat a fat man all at once. I also know that, This matter is not something that can be solved at once, but needs to be taken step by step and considered over a long period of time.”
"My son, I am just stating the facts to my father today. As a prince, since my father has entrusted this errand to my son, I have an obligation. I also have this responsibility to let my father understand what I am thinking. If Because you are afraid of offending others, you avoid the important and take the easy, and do not dare to tell the truth. In this way, your son and minister will violate your responsibilities as a son and minister, and you will also live up to your father's love."
When Huang Qiong said these righteous words, Jia Quan from behind gave him a thumbs up again. He couldn't help but secretly praise his master for his quick thinking and sharp tongue. After saying these few words, as long as he is not a completely stupid fool, at least he will not be held accountable for the crime of contradicting him before. Moreover, in the emperor's mind, it can greatly add points to his image.
Sure enough, after Huang Qiong finished speaking, the frost on the emperor's face that had been contradicted by his son gradually faded away. It was only after a long silence that the emperor said: "I understand what you said. I am very satisfied that you can submit this statement, which shows that you still have the imperial court in your heart. But you must also understand my difficulties and understand my heart."
"You also said that this matter is related to the country and requires long-term consideration. I will consider these ideas of yours carefully and adopt them as appropriate. Although your proposals are a bit radical, they are still well thought out and are wholehearted. Consider the country. I like you very much and am very satisfied with this. I will no longer pursue you for the crime of contradicting you today."
"I really like what you said just now, that you should live and die for the benefit of the country and not avoid it due to fortune or misfortune. If only half of the civil and military people in this dynasty could actually do this, I wouldn't have to work as hard as I do now. . You must also remember what you said, be consistent with your words and deeds, and don’t let me down.”
"Since my father also likes this sentence, I will go above and beyond once today. I hope that my father can give me a calligraphy treasure for this character. I once heard my mother say that my father's facial expressions and calligraphy are the best in the world. . I just don’t know if I have the blessing to see my father’s calligraphy with my own eyes.”
Although Huang Qiong was a bit more stubborn, he was not so stubborn as to go all the way to the end. Seeing that the emperor's anger had subsided, he would naturally not continue to act foolishly and continue to fight against the emperor. The only one who would be unlucky would be himself. He would restrain himself when it was time to restrain himself, and he still understood the principle of restraining himself as soon as he felt good.
Although he is stubborn and doesn't care about anything, Huang Qiong still has the foresight to bend and steer according to the wind. Hearing the words that the emperor liked me, he immediately asked the emperor to give him a picture. But there is one sentence that is not flattering. He actually heard his mother say that his old man's facial expressions, calligraphy and calligraphy are indeed the best in the world.
This was also the only praise Huang Qiong heard her mother say when talking about him, the emperor, when he was with his mother. Huang Qiong, who was nurtured by her mother in this life and also loved calligraphy, would naturally not give up this opportunity to flatter the emperor while feasting her eyes.
Hearing Huang Qiong's request, the emperor couldn't help but be slightly startled. He knew the characters of his sons very well, including those who wanted money, land, and beautiful women. But the son in front of me was the first one to ask for words. However, when he thought of the environment in which Huang Qiong grew up, the emperor immediately felt relieved.
My ex-wife's calligraphy strokes are definitely among the greatest calligraphers in the world. That handwriting made me feel a little ashamed even after reading it. As his son grew up beside him, it was no surprise that he liked calligraphy. Since this was the first time that a son was not concerned about his throne and property, the emperor generously gave Huang Qiong a message.
When signing the signature, the emperor mentioned Shiren Jiaer in the signature, which can be said to be a very profound and special comment. As for this comment being special, it is because this is the first time an emperor has given such a word to his son. As for whether it is related to the prince who Huang Qiong first asked to be given a name, you have to ask the emperor himself.
Seeing the emperor's handwriting, Huang Qiong, who was used to seeing his mother's handwriting, couldn't help but secretly praise the old man's handwriting for how beautiful it was. However, Huang Qiong didn't pay too much attention to the subsequent comments. Just because he didn't notice it didn't mean that others didn't notice it either.
Jia Quan, who had never received the emperor's permission over there and did not dare to leave and could only stay cautiously with him, noticed this comment. Seeing this comment, Jia Quan knew that his master should have left an unusually profound impression on the emperor today, and it was also very different from the past.
After the emperor finished mentioning the words, he looked at it with satisfaction. He stood up, walked to the window and looked at the horizon outside the window. After the setting sun had begun to set, he said leisurely: "I heard that you had a face-to-face conflict with Jing Zhaoyin a few days ago? What happened? Are you out of your mind? I have been very cautious since the palace, how could I have a conflict with Jing Zhaoyin? I don’t want to listen to one side, I want to listen to what you have to say."
