Chapter six hundred and sixty-two before the Duke of Xiyun discussing the Tao!
Chapter 662: Marquis Xiyun discusses Tao in front of the Lord!
Di Mu and Lao Situ saw that Yao Yun was very sincere and did not seem to be hypocritical, so they couldn't help but nodded slightly. Although Yao Yun was young, he had a big picture. He had a very clear understanding of the big issues that affected the entire dynasty.
It is difficult for ordinary princes to capture him!
Situ Xinghou saw Yao Yun's willingness to agree, and was quite satisfied. The emperor and the old Situ could not ask Xiyun Hou personally, so naturally he had to do it in the end, so he opened his mouth and asked:
"Marquis Xiyun, in your opinion, should the Celestial Empire impose a [first-acre tax]?"
"Of course it should!" Yao Yun replied without thinking and nodded solemnly: "Within the four seas and the eight wastelands, barbarian countries stand in great numbers. The barbarian gods and wild gods each occupy the mountains and are kings. Our celestial dynasty occupies the fertile land of the middle land.
All living beings monopolize the way to fly to the sky, attracting covetousness from all directions. If the heaven and the emperor do not have strong soldiers, how can they suppress the eight wastelands and hide the great gods and small gods!"
"The Celestial Dynasty is the big family, and the princes from all directions are the small families. The small family supports everyone, and everyone protects the small family. This is called the country, the family, the community, and there are still eggs under the overturned nest. I know this truth well, so I pay tribute to you.
The courtesy of the Celestial Empire has never been neglected. No matter how much land the Xi Kingdom reclaims, one of the nine will be given to the Celestial Empire. This is the duty of the princes!"
Yao Yun's words were sincere and not entirely a gorilla's polite words.
For example, there are countless ghosts and ghosts in the Southern Wilderness, and among them are several ghosts and gods with great supernatural powers. In terms of strength, the Kongming Guixie is not as good as the other countries in the Southern Wilderness, but why haven’t the Kongming Ghostly invaded the Southern Wilderness countries on a large scale?
expansion?
The reason is very simple. There is an emperor sitting behind the Southern Wilderness Kingdoms and the support of the Celestial Empire. Even if the ghosts and gods in the sky have supernatural powers, they still have to be a grass-headed king with their tail between their legs and dare not have the ambition to invade the Southern Wilderness!
This is the relationship between the Celestial Empire and the princes from all directions, symbiotically coexisting and complementing each other.
Emperor Mu, Lao Situ, Xixinghou and his party heard this and were very satisfied.
Old Situ's eyes looked at Yao Yun more and more lovingly, and there was a faint sense of the elder's joy in seeing the future of his younger generation.
"As expected of the direct grandson of the Holy Lord, Marquis Xiyun, what you said is very good. This is exactly the truth. However, most of the princes do not have this awareness and block the [First Mu Tax]. If they feel that the [First Mu Tax] is not perfect enough,
, I can give you the same opinions as you.
It’s nothing to deny it outright, it’s clearly selfish!
This group of unfilial descendants, if the ancestor of Xuanyuan came to earth, they would all be killed by a thunderbolt. That old bastard Jiang Gong, speaking of ancestors, there are many heroes, but for some reason, he gave birth to such a short-sighted and unfilial son, and you in the Southern Wilderness
The Marquis of Chu of Chu State said that having a hundred names means nothing, and he, a little bastard who has no sex to give birth to a child, is talking nonsense...￥%*&**%"
Old Situ was of high seniority and cultivation, and had a bad temper. At first, he talked to Yao Yun in a pleasant manner. When he mentioned the other princes, he might have read too many impeachment memorials and was holding his breath. Whenever he mentioned them, his bad temper became worse.
When I came up, I heard the scoldings all the time.
Yao Yun and Bald Long were both stunned. They seemed a little surprised that Old Situ was so good at scolding, and Bald Dragon was the best at scolding his mother. But after seeing Old Situ today, Bald Dragon was convinced.
Who is the peak at the end of the scolding road? When you meet Situ Dao, it will become empty!
This old man has no scruples when it comes to scolding people. For example, the overlords of the Southern Wilderness, the Marquis of Chu, Marquis of Wu, and Marquis of Yue, are listed on the list one by one. His words are extremely offensive and insulting to gentlemen. If the person involved were present, he would probably become angry.
What's even more arrogant is that the people this old man scolded were all high-ranking and powerful princes in the dynasty.
He didn't even take a fancy to princes like Izuyun Bo who were neither superior nor inferior, so as not to speak respectfully.
Di Mu seemed to have turned a deaf ear and seemed to have been used to it for a long time. On the other hand, Situ Xinghou smiled awkwardly and dissuaded the old Situ who had a "tongue blooming like a lotus" and a "mouth full of fragrance".
Old Situ also realized that he had gone off topic, and immediately coughed, without any hesitation, and smiled at Yao Yun: "Marquis Xiyun, it's better for you, you are worthy of being the Queen of the Saint King!"
It was just the third time that Old Situ praised Yao Yun like this. The first two times, Yao Yun was quite happy, thinking that he had been recognized by the big shots in the court, but after seeing the boss's scolding, he felt a little guilty.
"The boss is so complimentary!"
"Alas, no matter how hard it is, the princes of the world regard the [First Acre Tax] as a wild beast. Only the Xi Kingdom bucked the trend and not only took one of the nine, but also paid the tribute in full. What surprised me even more was that
, the people of Xi Kingdom did not complain much about this, but lived comfortably and full of hope, Marquis Xiyun, why is this?"
Old Situ asked about the doubts and purpose of Di Mu and his party.
Yao Yun felt relieved and understood the purpose of Emperor Di Mu and his entourage. He pondered for a moment, and then Yao Yun considered it and said: "Although the taxation and corvee of Xi State are not as heavy as those of other vassal states, they are not much better. Gu Xinzhi knows
You know, the boss said that the people of Xi Kingdom are full of hope for life, but the truth is actually very simple!"
Yao Yun paused for a moment, and for a moment, everyone's eyes were focused on Yao Yun, even the emperor was no exception.
Di Mu quickly asked: "What's the truth?"
Yao Yun cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, what the people want now is very simple. They are nothing more than food, clothing, warmth, peace and health. As long as the people are given the hope of a better life, they will fight for it and burst out with unprecedented strength. This
This power is enough to shake the structure of the Celestial Dynasty!"
"It's still shaken now. The dynasty is currently running for this burst of power. After the people of the world have iron tools, they are not willing to cultivate the mine fields. After seeing the sharp iron tools, the people of the world have hope for a better life. This
That led to the proliferation of private fields, which was out of control!" Old Situ agreed, fully agreeing with Yao Yun's statement.
Yao Yun nodded and then continued:
"What Mr. Lao said is very true. In Gu's opinion, it is a great thing that benefits the country and the people that the people have hope for a better life;
In ancient times, the floods were surging, and the divine soil and soil could not stop the torrential floods. However, the sages controlled the water and dredged the rivers instead of blocking them. Not only did the floods recede, but they also moisturized all things;
The same is true now. Instead of clinging to the well-field system and incorporating private fields into well-fields, causing shock and resistance in the world, it is better to recognize the legality of private fields and encourage people all over the world to continue to open up wasteland, cultivate, and work, even if conditions are limited.
To create conditions for them;
Farming is hard and difficult, so we need to create more convenient and labor-saving agricultural tools for them;
If the crop yield in the fields is not enough, then lead them to divert water for irrigation and cultivate intensively;
....
Let go of the shackles of people in the world, liberate their labor, and clear the way for them to pursue a better life. "At that time, the power formed by the trickles of people in the world will be comparable to the vastness of the four seas..."
