Liu Yu became more and more excited as he spoke, with a loud voice and a resolute look on his face: "If I, as the founding monarch, set this rule, it would be like Liu Bang punishing the white horse to tell the world that no one other than the Liu family can become king, otherwise the whole world will attack together, then I believe that even if
Even if I die, Liu Yi will not dare to occupy this power permanently, otherwise, he will be the enemy of the world, and everyone in the world can fight against him!"
Wang Miaoyin looked at Liu Yu motionlessly, with a strange look flashing in her eyes: "This is the brother Yu that I like, a man who can change all the laws in the world and stand upright. It's not in vain that I, Wang Miaoyin, have loved you for so many years."
Liu Yu said in a deep voice: "Miaoyin, this has been my wish and ideal for many years. When I was young, I joined the army to serve the country because I wanted to build a world where everyone is equal and can work hard. Do you still remember the first time we met in Jingkou?
, that time brother Diao Kui just came, and before he took office, he asked Diao Hong to hold the Emperor's Scepter and walk around the countryside in Jingkou, dominating the countryside. Er Xizi asked him to instruct his men to beat him because he didn't salute him.
, and Erxizi didn't even dare to resist when he saw his pomp and scepter. Do you know what I was thinking when I saw this scene?"
Wang Miaoyin's beautiful eyebrows frowned: "Are you thinking that some foreign bastard comes to Jingkou to bully people? You don't want to ask whose territory this is? Whoever came here last time to run amok should be beaten.
Did you climb out of Jingkou with a broken leg?"
Liu Yu shook his head: "No, it's different. The one who came here last time wanted to run an industry in Jingkou, and then he found out that Liu Yi had secretly sheltered many gangsters, so he wanted to blackmail Liu Yi into giving him benefits, so he gave him
Liu Yi is useless. At most, he wants to take advantage of others, but his situation is different from Diao Hong's."
Wang Miaoyin nodded: "I see, why is it that Liu Yi is very respectful to the Diao family, but he is so mean to his predecessor? However, Diao Hong's style of behavior is what the descendants of the aristocratic family should do after they take office.
The standard practice is to rely on family members to go out first, holding scepters, seals and ribbons and other swagger through the city. If there are ordinary people who dare to resist, they will fight with fists and kicks. If there are powerful local powerful people, they will make friends and delineate the division of interests. But there are
One thing that remains unchanged is that you bully the weak and avoid the strong. When it comes to powerless civilians, you will bully them to death. When it comes to powerful local people, you will try to win over them. I also tried to win over you at that time. "
Liu Yu sighed: "This is the problem. The common people are oppressed by the local tycoons. After a lot of effort, children from outside aristocratic families are brought in to serve as officials, but they are unable to uphold justice. Instead, they collude with the tycoons and oppress the people together, just like Er Xizi,
He was bullied at will but did not dare to resist, and Diao Hong and his gang even beat him to death without feeling anything was wrong. This kind of status brought about the behavior of bullying others at will and even controlling life and death.
Everyone thinks it’s only natural!”
Wang Miaoyin sighed: "The weak eat the strong, and the winner is king. This is true whether it is an animal or a human. It is indeed unfair, but this is the way of heaven and the law in the world. We are all just mortals and cannot change it."
Liu Yu said in a deep voice: "When I saw this scene, I was thinking that as long as one day I can take power, this kind of situation will never be allowed to happen again. We are all raised by our parents, and we are all born.
, why should we be enslaved and driven by others? As ordinary people, if we take the land of the country and fulfill our obligations to pay taxes and serve, we should be protected by the country and have the power to decide our own destiny. Why should we be enslaved?
Bullied by others and manipulated by others? Didn’t we establish the country not to benefit the people and common people, but just to bully them and get something for nothing?"
Wang Miaoyin frowned: "Brother Yu, there are many powerful people in this world who are divorced from production. Naturally, they will think like this and get something for nothing. They will rely on the wealth and land of their ancestors to absorb the wealth and wealth of the people from generation to generation. I am now
I kind of understand what you mean. The reason why you hate aristocratic families and powerful people so much is because they get something for nothing and rely on their own power to bully ordinary people. Is this unacceptable to you?"
Liu Yu nodded: "Yes, I think that no matter how great a person's contribution is, it is not enough for him to decide the life and death of the people arbitrarily. The state has national laws and families have family rules. If the people break the law, they can act in accordance with the law.
But that doesn’t mean that a certain powerful person can bully people or even take their lives just because of his personal preferences. If so, what’s the difference between him and those barbarians? In my opinion, these people should all be eliminated.”
Wang Miaoyin sighed: "The reason why they can decide other people's life and death in this way is that, to put it bluntly, they occupy a large amount of land and control a large number of people, especially those overseas Chinese who have not even registered their household registration. They control the life and death of these people."
In the hands of aristocratic families, one dissatisfaction can make them disappear forever. Brother Yu, few people can hold on to this kind of power that can determine life and death. The disputes in this world are not just to seize this power.
Is it? The aristocratic family looks majestic when dealing with ordinary civilians, but in front of the emperor, they become that civilian, and their life and death are completely determined by the emperor's thoughts."
Liu Yu nodded: "So, I think the power in this world is a public weapon and cannot be used privately. Those who have power should only act in accordance with national laws and not decide the life and death of others based on their personal likes and dislikes. Even the emperor
, nor can you kill your ministers for no reason, nor can you hand over the power of the world to your own children and grandchildren at will. This is why I said those words just now!"
Wang Miaoyin sighed softly: "If I were a commoner, then I would be willing to follow you and support you with my life, brother Yu, but I'm sorry, I am the daughter of the Wang family and the Xie family, and I have my own people.
I have benefited from my family since I was a child, so I have to speak up for them."
Liu Yu calmly shook his head: "I have no intention of completely suppressing the aristocratic families, but I will not allow the aristocratic families to continue to rely on the merits of their ancestors as before and let their descendants endlessly embezzle and occupy the country's land and population.
We cannot allow them not to contribute to the country, but to oppress the people and harm the country. I allow you to continue to keep your current land, but starting from the next generation, the title must be reduced. If you do not contribute to the country and make contributions, you will be in a few years.
Do you think you are treating the noble family badly by being demoted to ordinary civilians within a generation?"
Wang Miaoyin sighed softly: "If you are even prepared to take turns as the emperor, then this is simply a favor to our aristocratic family. But brother Yu, how many people can support your approach? Even you
My family, can they agree?"
