Chapter 179: Pushing favor to break the enfeoffment!
"Teacher, this... the sun is very hot outside, brother, he..."
Ying Che watched Fusu walking out of Yiwen Palace and couldn't help but 'please' to Liu Bai.
Liu Bai didn't pay any attention to Ying Che's plea, and just said calmly: "Young gentlemen, you are indeed the princes, you have a noble status, and you are also thinking about the affairs of the Qin Dynasty."
"But today, I want you to think about the problem from the perspective of ordinary people."
"No matter what the system is, the most important thing is to benefit the people!"
After saying these words, Fusu's steps stopped and his brows furrowed tightly.
The people's perspective?
Master Liu is reminding me to think about the problem from the perspective of the common people, that is, whether it is beneficial to the common people to enfeoff the people, or whether it is beneficial to the common people to have counties and counties?
With this thought in mind, Fusu slowly walked out of Yiwen Palace and looked up at the scorching sun in the sky.
If the county system is like a bright sun shining on the world, the enfeoffment system is about letting every place have a sun above its head.
Of course, one sun in one place can suppress the people, but... precisely because of this suppression, the sun is stronger and the people are helpless.
Is there a king above every place, or is there only one king above everyone?
Fusu murmured to himself: "King, heaven, earth and people are consistent! This is benevolence, virtue, and the hearts of the people."
"If there is one king in heaven and earth, there will be no saints. But if the people respect one king, even if there are flaws in the counties, they can be corrected..."
"No, no!"
Fusu shook his head, with a look of doubt in his eyes: "But the teacher said that only by enfeoffing can the nobles of the old six countries in the world be put back to their original places."
"Only when the people of the homeland take care of the people of the homeland can the people be healthy!"
"The county system is based on officials sent by the emperor. How can we make the local tycoons and squires submit? How can we make the people obey?"
A look of pain appeared on the face of the eldest son of Da Qin.
However, at this moment, Liu Bai's words suddenly flooded into Fusu's mind.
The perspective of the common people...the perspective of the common people...
Fusu seemed to have found a floating plank between two giant waves, holding on to the plank to find a glimmer of 'life'!
From the people's perspective, what do they care about?
They don't care who the official is or who governs the place!
What they care about is... whether they can have a full stomach, whether they can have clothes to cover their bodies, whether they can have a roof over their heads...
Fusu... seems to understand a little bit.
...
In Yiwen Palace, Liu Bai couldn't help but shook his head.
Fusu was too deeply poisoned by Confucianism, and things like enfeoffment and restructuring were simply not an option that Great Qin would consider today.
Indeed, as Fusu said, enfeoffment can make the Qin Empire more stable.
but...
This is only superficial stability.
The Zhou Dynasty ruled the world for eight hundred years, Confucius ruled the Spring and Autumn Period, and the Warring States Period was divided into seven heroes! This is the 'stability' of the enfeoffment system!
The strong bones of Lao Qin made the people of Lao Qin just like the people of Zhou, living under the coercion of their princes...
Sorry, can't do it!
"Okay! Gentlemen, since you have heard what Mr. Fu Su said just now, as a teacher, you cannot avoid this issue."
"Let Mr. Fusu stand outside to help him clear his head."
"But... on this issue, I still have to teach you as a teacher, why... our Great Qin cannot enfeoff!"
Liu Bai spoke in a deep voice.
After saying these words, all the young masters were instantly refreshed and looked at Liu Bai with all their attention.
These words undoubtedly showed Master Liu's attitude.
Especially the current Xianyang Lingjiang, who quickly spread out a blank bamboo slip and wrote to record it!
Jiang Lu Jiang Lu is a stubborn donkey! If what Master Liu said was true, he would not mind angrily rebuking those officials who supported the enfeoffment and reform in the court!
Ying Che looked worriedly outside the palace door, thinking about whether to remind his brother to listen, but... he gave up!
Because...it's a bit far!
"Actually, the reason I gave you is very simple, just three words."
Liu Bai smiled slightly, slapped his whip on the desk, and said one word:
"No!"
"Can!"
"able!"
One word at a time, three words were spoken, and all the young masters were dumbfounded!
Even Jiang Lu, who was about to take 'class notes', didn't know how to put down the pen in his hand.
"As my teacher, I will tell you that the enfeoffment system will never be realized in the unified Qin Dynasty!"
Liu Bai said calmly: "Even if the enfeoffment system is implemented, it will be forcibly reversed by the inertia of history in the end, and a unified system will be used to manage the empire."
All the young masters were confused about these words and did not understand them at all.
"Teacher, please elaborate, you are completely stupid and unclear!"
Ying Che spoke in a deep voice. He was very honest and would ask if he didn't understand.
Besides...
Now that he has received permission from His Majesty the First Emperor, he can enter the court to observe the administration, enfeoffment, restructuring and the system of counties and counties. This is a matter of political stance, and Ying Che cannot be careless in the slightest.
"Well... let's not discuss the pros and cons of the system first."
"On one point, the enfeoffment system will definitely not survive!"
"Let's imagine first. If the enfeoffment system is really implemented, will the Emperor of Qin be able to easily crush this system?"
Liu Bai chuckled lightly and asked.
When these words were asked, all the gentlemen looked grave!
What Master Liu just said was the 'Emperor of the Qin Dynasty', not 'His Majesty the First Emperor'.
If it is their father, then there is no problem, but if it is not their father...
To be honest, even Ying Che didn't think it was possible.
All the gentlemen shook their heads.
Such a reaction was also within Liu Bai's expectation.
When the Han Dynasty was first established, the Seven Kings Rebellion broke out just on the issue of kingship. Except for His Majesty the First Emperor, every prince here really did not have the prestige to suppress all these things, let alone crush them. Enfeoffment was implemented.
"wrong!"
Liu Bai shook his head: "It's actually very simple, all it takes is a will!"
"The so-called enfeoffment system only looks powerful, but this system has its inherent evils. It only takes one click to collapse!"
When these words were spoken, everyone was shocked!
A decree to crush the enfeoffment system?
If this is true, why did the Zhou Dynasty survive for so long?
If the enfeoffment system is really so bad, then what does my brother...his long-term efforts to fight against his father mean?
Jiang Lu's hand holding the pen began to shake.
"Please sir, give me some advice!"
Jiang Lu suppressed his emotions and spoke.
Liu Bai smiled slightly, walked to Jiang Lu, took his pen and wrote five words on the bamboo slip:
"Treat favors and break the enfeoffment!"
