MTL - Prodigal Son of the Ming Dynasty-Chapter 14 fluent answer

  Chapter 14 Answers well

  Obviously, the issue of Emperor Hongzhi has no rules at all. One moment he was concerned about the issue of selling his ancestral property, but the next moment it was about reforming the land and returning it to the people.

  Fang Jifan immediately realized that the emperor's coming here was most likely related to the reformation of the land.

  He felt a little excited in his heart. The emperor read his article? It seemed, it seemed... this article was to his liking.

  Fang Jifan said conveniently: "That's right, it's the subject's answer."

  Emperor Hongzhi was silent for a moment, and then said: "But if the imperial court reforms the soil, it will inevitably trigger a rebound from the southwestern chieftains, and chaos is just around the corner. Therefore, reforming the soil and returning the soil is a fundamental solution, but it is still superficial."

  Yeah, once the imperial court implements land reform, it will be the same as cutting down vassals. How could those chieftains be reconciled, and they will definitely unite to launch a bigger rebellion.

Fang Jifan said: "That's why I offer strategies, starting with using barbarians to control barbarians. The imperial court can send military households or natives from the Huguang area into the southwest to check and balance the southwestern feudal vassals and implement division. Anyway, these chieftains will always rebel every now and then. As long as the counter-insurgency army and wolf soldiers can be suppressed temporarily, different strategies will be adopted according to different states. If they are not convinced, the imperial court will order the local wolf soldiers and soldiers to suppress Suppress and cut down their chieftains; if they are willing to submit obediently, they will be promised a generous salary, so that although they are deprived of power, they will not lose their wealth."

  Emperor Hongzhi was expressionless, standing quietly with only his hands behind his back.

  Fang Jifan didn't know if what he said was good or not, and his mouth was a little dry, but he continued: "In fact, there are frequent rebellions in the southwest. The most important thing is that the imperial court has always had a huge blind spot."

  The word "blind spot" made Emperor Hongzhi raise his eyebrows slightly, showing displeasure.

Liu Qian, who was standing by the side, was already happy in his heart. This guy is so bold. Although the word "blind zone" has never been heard before, the general meaning can be understood. Isn't this accusing the court officials of being blind? ? Looking deeper, it means that His Majesty is confused and can't see clearly?

Fang Jifan gradually calmed down, and when he spoke just now, his tone was somewhat incoherent, but now he began to be "presumptuous": "The imperial court has always ruled the southwest, and always regarded the chieftains, native officials, and natives in the Tuzhou as their own. One body, so if you want to comfort the natives, most of the time, you will reward the native officials, but in fact, although the native officials have received countless rewards, what good is it for the natives? The natives have not received any benefits from the court. , all these benefits were taken away by the chieftains and native officials. Naturally, they would not be grateful for His Majesty's kindness. However, these chieftains and native officials are like a mirror, knowing that the reason why the imperial court rewarded them is because the imperial court wanted to appease them. They don't rebel, so they naturally have arrogance, because they know very well that the more moderately they provoke the court, the more worried the court will be, and they will be able to reap greater benefits from it."

"The imperial court is not indifferent to the southwestern states, but the natives have not received real benefits, so how can they be grateful to the imperial court? The current reform of the land and return to the natives is essentially aimed at those hereditary chieftains and chieftains. If the officials go, while the imperial court wants to weaken them, they must not treat the natives and these chieftains as one, but treat them separately. There is no need to show mercy to the chieftains and native officials, but they can find ways to transfer the land that should have been given to the chieftains and native officials. The benefits are given to the natives. If the imperial court allocates money and food to the poor natives while reforming the land, at the same time, order the local guards to provide enough salt and iron to the natives, and then give them some land to open up wasteland. Among the natives, some clever ones are selected, schools are set up, they are allowed to study, and they can be made officials in the imperial examination in the future. Then, even if the interests of the chieftains and hereditary native officials are violated and they want to resist the imperial court, the natives can If people refuse to follow, can thirty or fifty native officials resist the heavenly soldiers?"

"I believe that no matter where the people are in a place, there are three religions and nine streams. They have different needs. They must not be regarded as one. In general, to govern Tuzhou, we can only divide and rule. Dealing with Tusi is a way. Smart natives are another way to deal with ordinary natives. It is another strategy. We should also have an effective method to deal with weak women and children. To win over, who needs to be resolutely attacked, as long as the imperial court follows this method and sends a capable minister to the southwest to lead the reform of the land and return it to the local people, and then let the local military towns and wolf soldiers be stationed in various key places, three to five In a few years' time, we can replace the hereditary chieftain with the rank-and-file officials, and this problem can be completely solved."

  Emperor Hongzhi listened casually at first.

  He is very interested in the four words of reforming the land and returning to the natives, but at first, he thought it was a bit unrealistic, but now...he suddenly discovered that what Fang Jifan said was not only logical, but also...very reasonable.

  Why are the chieftains always suppressing them? It is because the imperial court regards the chieftain and their clansmen as a whole, so the imperial court rewarded the chieftain, and the natives wanted a good life, but they had to rely on the chieftain, and the chieftain took out the money and food rewarded by the imperial court and distributed it to the chieftain. Give it to the natives to buy people's hearts. However, if a chieftain rebels, the imperial court regards the entire tribe as rebellious, and the result is regardless of whether it is good or bad. People live and die with the chieftain.

  Divide and rule... The more Emperor Hongzhi listened, the more he felt the taste. Although the imperial court was also good at using the method of divide and rule, such as dealing with the Oalas and the Tatars, it would often provoke internal strife among the various ministries and allow the imperial court to reap the rewards. But what Fang Jifan said about divide and rule is to separate the three, six and nine grades of the entire Tuzhou, and to formulate coping methods according to different groups.

  Emperor Hongzhi's eyes lit up, and he faintly felt that this strategy could work.

   It is strange to say that the emperor and ministers of the court were at a loss for what to do about such a big problem, but it was explained by such a guy, and Emperor Hongzhi was shocked in his heart.

  He couldn't help taking a deep look at Fang Jifan curiously, this kid...where did he learn this? It's just that he has always been prudent, although he was shocked in his heart, he did not show any signs of expression, smiled slightly and said: "I heard that you are a dandy, ignorant and incompetent. When I saw you today, I felt that the rumors are so false!"

  When he said this lightly, Fang Jifan raised his eyes cautiously, but found that Emperor Hongzhi had a cold expression on his face.

  Fang Jifan felt complacent just now, and thought that it was time for him to make a fortune, but now, his heart skipped a beat.

  A terrible thought rose from his heart.

  What I did in the past was indeed the image of a **** and LIUMANG, but when the emperor saw him today, he found himself saluting and answering fluently, this...

its not right.

  How can a person who is usually rotten to the bone change his mood drastically?

   So... what would the Emperor think? The worst result is that, in the emperor's heart, he is determined to be a fool, a person who usually pretends to be stupid, but is extremely shrewd at critical moments. Doesn't this tell the emperor that Fang Jifan's city is extremely deep?

  Any emperor would not want the people below him to be too powerful and thoughtful, so that even the emperor can't predict it. Can you rest assured? so…

  Fang Jifan understood that he performed too well just now, and he was simply courting death.

  Thinking of this, Fang Jifan was already dripping with cold sweat, wanting to beat his chest and fall.

   Could this mean that instead of being a prodigal son, this young master gives people the image of a conspirator and a careerist?

  In this way, Fang Jifan must be a villain, a scum, and a prodigal son!
