Chapter 434: Loyal Ministers Will Surrender Too

Under the alliance of soldiers, what can be delicious?

If you think so, then it is wrong, the rich land of Bashu has always been generous, and the people of Shu are even more industrious and optimistic. A few days after the fire, there were new houses, and what could be more to celebrate.

The big guys helped each other, tried their best to prepare rice wine and fruit wine, and the neighbors around came to congratulate each other, some brought bacon, sausages, and some brought fat carp.

The old woman trembled, wrapped it in red paper, and when she opened it, it was a large piece of maltose. Cut into pieces with a kitchen knife and distribute them to the children who have been drooling for a long time.

Suddenly, the laughter of children filled the streets.

They were running around, screaming excitedly, yelling, and making noise!

What a scene!

A smile appeared on Ping'an's face unconsciously, maybe he was getting older, he missed the past more and more, the days before the age of seven or eight were completely gloomy, he didn't want to recall, and he was afraid to recall...... Hunger, sickness, death, separation...... It's all the saddest thing.

It wasn't until he was adopted by the first emperor that he had his first pair of shoes, his first new clothes, and his first full meal...... Almost all the good memories are in that busy barracks.

In the past 30 years, Ping An has been fighting to the death for Zhu Yuanzhang, who gave him a good life, and has never regretted it...... Zhu Yunwen succeeded to the throne, and the new monarch did not like martial arts, and the group of civil servants he reused regarded martial arts as revenge, including the death of Wang Bi, Marquis of Dingyuan. There are so many things that Ping An has heard of.

But he didn't care, just thought about it a little, and it passed.

Because he always remembers the kindness of the first emperor.

It is undeniable that in history, Ping An was finally arrested by Zhu Di and surrendered to Zhu Laosi. But don't forget, he sold Zhu Yunwen's life for four years! Born and died, bloody battlefield!

Seeing Zhu Yunwen scrap a good handful of cards, if it weren't for despair, Ping An wouldn't have surrendered!

At this moment, Ping An has not been completely disappointed in Zhu Yunwen, although he has Lao Zhu's will, he still can't get over the hurdles in his heart.

But Ping'an is not a fool who does not distinguish between right and wrong, good and bad, he sits in the corner, tastes the slightly sour fruit wine, and listens to the talk of the people.

They were talking about dividing the land...... The acres of land were re-measured, the fields were evenly served, and the gentry paid grain in one ...... For thousands of years, the people's biggest demand was land.

Since the Qin and Han dynasties, almost every large-scale peasant uprising has originated from the land issue, and the prescription proposed by the heroes of every dynasty is Juntian!

But there are very few that can really be implemented.

Even Zhu Yuanzhang only did half of it, he just gave the people land, encouraged tuntian, and encouraged farming, as for the average of land and the average of conscription fields, Lao Zhu did not complete it.

This change is to complete the half of the task that Emperor Hongwu did not complete.

The people talked excitedly, and the more they talked, the happier they became, and some people said that he wanted to go to the countryside to plow the fields. In Chengdu Prefecture, not only is there no Juntian, but also has to face commercial taxes, and I am afraid that the pressure will be even greater.

It seems that this change may not always be a good thing.

Speaking of which, it is inevitable that the atmosphere is a little depressing.

A soldier suddenly walked in the middle of several people, and he mustered up his courage and said loudly: "It's not what you say! ”

"Oh? What's going on here? Everyone asked curiously, and someone moved a chair for the little soldier.

Xiao Bing did not sit down, but clenched his fists, and said in a hurried voice: "You really think wrong, when the countryside is clear, the people will have surplus money, and they will buy furniture, pen, ink, paper, inkstone, bricks, tiles and wood...... Your income will only be more! ”

"Oh! There's some truth to that! "Someone suddenly realized.

Xiao Bing continued: "That's not all, after the imperial court collects the commercial tax, there is money to hire more officials and servants. You don't have to rely on those hooligans to maintain the market. Your exorbitant taxes will be much, much less. “

The more the people listened, the happier they became, "Is there anything else?" ”

"Yes, for small and medium-sized merchants, the imperial court will reduce or exempt them as appropriate, in fact, many small shops, as long as they pay a little money every year, it is enough. The real ones who have to be taxed are the big merchants, the big workshops, the banks, the merchants. Collect their money and enrich the state. It's like taking the landlord's land and filling the peasants, all in order to make the country fairer! ”

"Oh!"

Almost everyone woke up like a dream, the big guy's doubts were solved, and the interest was even higher.

Constantly persuaded to drink, the little soldier was poured a lot of alcohol, he drank very poorly, the little white face turned into a red apple, and fled to the corner in embarrassment, just happened to meet Ping'an.

Ping'an handed him a glass of water, Xiaobing subconsciously took it, but found that it was Ping'an, hesitated again, and said in a low voice: "Thank you!" ”

Ping An looked ahead, his eyes narrowed, "The person who should be thanked is me, you are ordered to come, I really want to thank you for solving so many doubts for me." What a painstaking effort! But if this is the means to make me surrender, it would be a big mistake! ”

Xiaobing didn't understand what Ping An said, and shook his head vigorously, "You, you misunderstood!" ”

"Misunderstanding? Then you are a small soldier, how can you explain the change so clearly? Ping An scoffed: "Or are you not an ordinary soldier at all?" ”

"How am I not! It's not just me, it's many of us who know that yes, the big boss told us! The soldier asked angrily.

"Him?" Ping An was surprised, "He told you all such a confidential thing?" ”

"What kind of secret is this!" Xiao Bing said a lot, and he didn't have so much stage fright, he said seriously: "The big boss said that the so-called law change is to change everyone's side law. If you don't let the people know, how can you succeed? He told us, and let us tell others, that when everybody understood what the Fa change was all about, it was a success! ”

Ping An frowned, "Will it be that easy?" ”

"How not easy! Because we're doing the right thing! ”

"That's right! That's right! ”

Ping An muttered, is this right?

"Boy, you can't say you're right, that's right, right?"

"Why not? Thousands of me, all the poor people, people struggling for food and clothing, say yes, that's right! ”

What a novelty reason!

Ping An chuckled and said, "According to you, what about the Son of Heaven?" What about the sages? Are they wrong? ”

"Who said that? The Son of Heaven is the monarch of the people of the world, and he must treat all the people, right? ”

"That's right!"

"Then the sages should be good to the people, right? If they don't speak for the people, what kind of sages are they? ”

"This ...... Makes sense, too! ”

Ping An was left speechless by a small soldier.

His words, though uncomplicated, offer an angle that Ping An has never thought about...... A good emperor, of course, must think about the people, just like the first emperor, he is the best emperor throughout the ages!

The first emperor cherished the people and wanted the people to live well, so how did the first emperor view the change?

Change the law into a priority!

Ping An suddenly realized that perhaps this was the true divine will.

Liu Chun didn't lie to himself, changing the law is good for the people, and the first emperor will definitely support it! As the righteous son of the first emperor, what should I do?

Of course, it is to respect the will of the first emperor, and there will be no regrets in death!

However, the current emperor is Zhu Yunwen, he does not follow the ancestral teachings, he is not in the right position, he is keen to eradicate stumbling blocks, he has made a big mess in the world, and made a mess of the good Hongwu prosperous world.

He's not worthy to be an emperor!

But he is the emperor, and he is still sitting on the dragon chair, making a fortune, and not long ago, he was still working for him...... Even now, he regarded him as an emperor and did not dare to betray him......

Ping An became more and more entangled, he was frightened by his thoughts, he suspected Zhu Yunwen, there is no doubt that this is an act of no king and no father, it is a great rebellion, and he wants to apologize for his sins with death!

But, on the other hand, Zhu Yunwen is indeed true, not as good as the first emperor.

The emperor, the people, the first emperor, Zhu Yunwen...... What the hell is going on?

Ping An was completely confused, his braincase exploded, and he couldn't figure out what was going on, he swayed and returned to his residence, the moonlight outside was very bright, and today was a rare sunny day.

Passing by a construction site safely...... On one side are the new, renovated houses, with the lights shining and the people laughing, and on the other side, the burned ruins, black with coal. Occasionally, some gables and timber frames have not collapsed and stand alone.

These were originally houses, but unfortunately they were burned down and could not be inhabited, and they had to be demolished and built with new houses in a few days.

New house ...... Old House ...... A lightning bolt struck Ping'an's head, and he seemed to have found the answer, if the house is different, is the emperor also different?

At least Zhu Yunwen and the first emperor are different, the first emperor can let him die without regrets, as for Zhu Yunwen...... Hehe......

He stood quietly, and after a long time, he suddenly ran wildly.

Around him, there were also some Lan family guards.

Usually they don't come out, and Ping An is running wildly without his life, not knowing where to go, how can these people be indifferent!

"Stop! You stop! ”

The two people flew over, Ping'an's eyes were red, and they directly threw them aside.

"Get out of the way, let me go see Liu...... King Shu, I want to see King Shu! ”

Two more men sprang out from the side, their daggers in their hands.

"Peace, do you want to die?"

Ping'an gritted his teeth, stopped, and said in a muffled voice: "Take me to see the King of Shu, I have a military situation to report!" ”

The guards were still hesitating, but Ping'an was so angry that he wanted to scold his mother, "You fools, don't let me see the King of Shu again, Xu Huizu's army is coming, it's too late!" ”

……

"I lost!"

Zhu Chun, the king of Shu, had a hard time seeing the extreme, this special mother is really evil! It's only been a few days, and Ping An is willing to surrender, what the hell?

Aren't you going to be a loyal minister of the Ming Dynasty?

You're resisting!

It doesn't matter if you have no fucking bones, but Lao Tzu's town house treasure bow is not, who are you going to reason with?

Ping'an sat opposite Liu Chun, and he said with a dark face: "I didn't surrender, I, I just don't want those people to have no houses to live in!" ”

"I understand, I can let you supervise the construction of all the houses, but before that, you have to help me deal with Xu Huizu first!"
