Soy Sauce Characters

Today's legalist thinking is not very perfect, and it is not so suitable for the current society.

Thinking about Shang Yang's generation of reformers, in the end, they were no match for those in the upper class who had their interests harmed and attacked them, so that they died tragically in the end.

However, what the Legalists believed was "punishment for killing, virtue for rewarding", there was no way for Chen Jiao to fully accept it.

After all, I don’t pay much attention to the role of morality and ethics. It is true that I want to restrain the people only by law and interests. But once a society is really changed into this way, will it produce the same result as later generations-helping others? Why is there no more fun, no closing the door at night, no picking up lost things, and not even daring to help an old lady?

This kind of society is too indifferent and alienated, Chen Jiao can't stand it.

So Chen Jiao's idea is:

First, the country is governed by law, but the royal family is separated and controlled by another set of independent etiquette and laws.As for other high-ranking nobles, if they violated the laws of the country, they either directly bought them, or bought them with money, and the maximum amount could be tens of thousands of gold.In this way, the nobles can avoid the rebound, because in the eyes of these aristocrats, the so-called "law" is just another way to rule the common people, and can achieve the goal to the greatest extent, avoiding the tragic experience of Qin Shangyang.

Second, improve the law, do not impose severe punishments or hard labor, and do not just lift it up and put it down gently as a superficial effort.It can be modified and perfected on the original system of Legalism, and it can be as close as possible to the laws of later generations.

And only when the law is perfect, and slowly transition from the rule of man to the rule of law, can the bad influence caused by the faint king that may occur in the future be prevented at the minimum cost in this feudal society.

Chen Jiao compiled her thoughts into written words, and then handed them over to Liu Rong, who had recently been troubled by the selection of officials, and received a good evaluation from Liu Rong as a "good wife".

Sending off Liu Rong who came and left in a hurry, Chen Jiao sighed—there is no time to spare, and the selection of officials is an important and important matter that cannot be delayed.

It is certainly possible to select officials through the later inspection system, but even if such a person has a guarantee of virtue, can his talent be guaranteed?Not sure, it is not as good as the imperial examinations of later generations!

Chen Jiao thought, the current Han Dynasty is really backward.For example, writing is still based on bamboo slips and supplemented by cloth, but ordinary people don’t have enough clothes to make at home, so how can there be more cloth for writing?Therefore, construction is imperative.

That's all there is - every aristocratic family has "playboys" who like to play, and among the people, there must be masters of crafts.Simply, while retaining the existing recommendation system, from the nobles to the common people, select officials according to their talents, just like they put the princes into the six departments, and select talents who are useful to the court by category.

Tell Liu Rong this general idea, and Chen Jiao is not going to worry about it anymore-thinking about it all day long will cause premature aging, so let the emperor worry about it!

What Chen Jiao is thinking about now is another thing: perfecting the patent system.

As we all know, the hierarchical system in ancient China was nothing more than the arrangement of "scholars, farmers, businessmen and commerce". Therefore, the status of businessmen and workers was not very high.And this has led to these two types of people buying land as soon as they have money, becoming landlords, and entering the second-class "farmers"-just like this, in history, how many times did China originally have money? The germ of capitalism in China was snuffed out?And how many things like Sinan that could have played a big role ended up as useless "little objects" in China?

Thinking of this, Chen Jiao's heart almost went cold.

Therefore, the status of industry and commerce must be improved.But the improvement is not just like this rashly-if you raise it casually, just wait for the rebound from the family!

But now, it is possible to use the reason of the Ministry of Industry to select officials to improve the status of workers and gradually improve patent rights-such as naming inventors with the names of inventors or setting up various levels of bonus awards.

After that, the status of merchants will be further improved-the development of the Silk Road and the realization of the northward march to Europe, attracted by the temptation of rewarding titles and the temptation of vast land, I believe those businessmen who are already seeking profit will definitely be tempted.

It is a pity that it is still too early for this. After all, there may be a war with the Huns in a few years. It is unrealistic to talk about immigration at this time.

So let's take it step by step, first raise the patent system, so as to improve the status of workers.This backward era really needs an "industrial revolution"!

Chen Jiao struggled for several days.

After all, today's court has been messed up, and if you still use big moves, it will be bad if it really causes too much backlash--but then think about it, if you use the method of "showing favor to the aristocratic family" Wouldn't it be better to recruit the children of aristocratic families who are good at strange games into the Ministry of Industry, and then come up with a patent system to "guarantee the rights and interests of inventors and reformers", and then gradually decentralize them to the private sector?

Chen Jiao, who really didn't want to wait, endured it for another two days, guessing that the court should have calmed down soon, so she hurriedly asked Aunt Wang to invite Liu Rong over.

Chen Jiao quickly explained the matter clearly, and had lunch with Liu Rong and talked for a while before sending him away.

"Ma'am." Aunt Wang stepped forward.

"What's the matter?" Chen Jiao was still thinking about the patent, so she didn't notice Aunt Wang's displeased expression.

"Just now when the servants went to invite His Majesty, the people under Beauty Zhou also invited His Majesty over, and... said some unpleasant things." Aunt Wang said softly.

"Oh?" Chen Jiao frowned.Aunt Wang knew it. She was never someone who liked exaggeration or meddling. Presumably Zhou Meiren thought that His Majesty came to and left in a hurry every time he came to her recently, so she thought about something that shouldn't be there.

"Go and tell Beauty Zhou that starting from today, she will be banned for one month. If she has any questions, she can go to His Majesty." Chen Jiao said, stroking the bracelet on her hand.

"No." Aunt Wang nodded and stepped back.

It seems some people just can't relax!Chen Jiao watched Aunt Wang go away, thinking coldly.

This week beauty was one of the beauties she selected to enter the palace for Liu Rong last time, and together with Zhou beauty, there were six people in total, all of them were named beauties.

Among this group of beauties, Xiao, Zhao, and Wen are the "helpers" her mother, Princess Guantao, found for her to "beautiful and easy to control", while Zhou, Sui, and Min are her Specially selected daughters-in-law and concubines who are not very favored in a small family.Among them, only the Zhou family is the concubine's daughter, and she thinks that her family background is not bad, so she is a bit more pampered. It was fine when she first entered the palace, but now she is becoming more and more restrained!

Chen Jiao kept her eyes shut, there were so many things in the previous court, how could she have so much time to be entangled in the matter of the harem?Besides, now that she is irreplaceable in Liu Rong's heart, why should she care about a group of dispensable concubines?

It seems that if encountering such a thing in the future, it is better to just leave it to Liu Rong, so as not to spoil her mood.

As time goes by, it has been 15 years.

In 15 years, everything has changed drastically.

At most, the court hall is still in the hands of the aristocratic family, while the rest are all in the hands of Liu Rong and Chen Jiao.

Governance of officials is divided into six parts.Stay with the prince and grant grace to the land.

This sentence has now become a folk children's song, which is sung by everyone.

The Ministry of Industry has also thoroughly improved the patent system. Although the current social ranking is still "scholar, farmer, businessman and commerce", the number of workers has increased significantly.

The structure of the harem has also changed.

In order to avoid the birth of freaks due to the marriage of close relatives, Chen Jiao started contraception many years ago, so she has never had a child in the past 15 years.

Fortunately, the queen's reputation of being virtuous and dedicated to improving the status of the common people has been widely praised, and after the censor who asked Liu Rong to be childless a few years ago was blocked and smashed by the common people, no one dared to What more wasteful remarks are made.Chen Jiao is still firmly in front of her queen.

Eight years ago, the beauty Zhao gave birth to the eldest son of the emperor, Liu Ju, who was carried to Chen Jiao's palace by Liu Rong; while the beauty Xiao, who gave birth to the second son of the emperor, Liu He, was also carried to Chen Jiao's body five years ago.

Fortunately, Chen Jiao had consciously allowed her side to be conceived at the beginning, so Liu Rong's behavior did not cause any resentment.

As a thank you for holding the child, Chen Jiao promoted Mrs. Zhao to be the second-rank Jing'e, and Mrs. Xiao to be the third-rank Ronghua. They were the only two high-ranking concubines in the palace.

Now there are only four princes and two princesses in the palace.

The third prince is Liu Li, who was born by the Zhao family, and now he is only about two years old, because Chen Jiao has already carried a child of hers, so Liu Li has been raised by his biological mother all the time.The fourth prince is Liu E, born of the Sui family. It is only about two months now, and in a few months, he will still be hugged and raised by Chen Jiao.

The eldest princess was from the Wen family, she was named Chengyi by Chen Jiao, and she was eight years old now; the second princess was from the Min family, she was about four years old, and she was named Weixia by Chen Jiao.

Because the princesses and princes no longer have any fiefdoms, but directly receive the royal salary, so the title of the princess has never been named after the fief, but the title of "good meaning" taken by Chen Jiao, the aunt.

Liu Rong is very relieved of Chen Jiao now, if possible, he really wishes to bring all the children in the palace to Changle Palace - he is really worried about the upbringing of other concubines, if the children are taught to be harmonious What about his ineffective brothers?

Of course, within 15 years, not only the palace, but also Wei Zifu and the three brothers have changed.

Five years ago, Chen Jiao made the decision to marry Wei Xu, a small-character husband, to her younger brother Chen Qiao, and last year, Wei Ping, a small-character child, was married to the only son of an official with the surname Lian in Liu Rong's direct line. He is really bringing the three members of the Wei family into his own faction, and they can no longer be separated.

It's a pity that there will be no more "Huo Qubing" in the future, and at most, there will only be one "Lian Qubing".

Now, Wei Qing, who has participated in many wars against the Huns, has finally grown up!

As early as more than ten years ago, sending missions to various countries along the Silk Road brought back not only a steady stream of gold and silver, but also various useful weapons, tools and news.

Finally the day has come!Chen Jiao touched the materials of anti-Hungarian resistance over the years in her hand, and smiled lightly.

Those who offend me China will be punished even if they are far away!
