Chapter 795: Deling Mountain

Especially after the Song and Yuan dynasties, China has basically lagged behind the West in terms of political system.

And the current Wang Anshi reform is at the most critical time in Chinese history.

If we can change the law to become stronger, enrich the country and strengthen the army, then we can continue to create a prosperous Han and Tang dynasties, and even promote the reform of the political system.

If the reform fails, perhaps the tragedy of the Song Dynasty will be staged, and all the land of China will be reduced to a field of foreign horses, and the absence of China after Yashan will become a shame for China.

Now that he has crossed over to this juncture, Cui Wenqing must not turn a blind eye and sit still, he must change the law to avoid the recurrence of the tragedy in his previous life.

Therefore, from the perspective of national continuity and history, Cui Wenqingqiang and these ancients are too many.

In other words, he has a strong pattern, which is not comparable to Chen Ningmo.

Therefore, Cui Wenqing sighed lightly, and his voice was calm and heavy: "Scholar, as you said, the current political system is very perfect, but there are still many drawbacks, these drawbacks have objective reasons and subjective factors, not as simple as you think. ”

Seeing this, Chen Ningmo seemed to want to open his mouth to ask, Cui Wenqing waved his hand to interrupt her words, and continued: "Throughout the ancient and modern times, the Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties had different systems, and the Spring and Autumn Five Hegemons had different laws, and in the later Warring States era, the law change was the mainstream of the world, such as the Li Kui reform of the Wei State at that time, and the Shen Buxiao reform of South Korea, and the Shang Yang reform of the Qin State, all of which were based on the change of the law as a means and the purpose of trying to be strong, especially the change of the law of the Qin State, but also the internal law system, cultivation and weaving, the repair of the tools of war, and the external balance and fight the princes, In the end, the remnants of Fen VI were revitalized, and the Yu Yu was in the palace. Therefore, as far as the political system is concerned, change is strong, change is death, and the term reform of the law should always be the main theme of the Chinese nation for thousands of years. ”

Chen Ningmo couldn't help but interject: "But there are also ancient sages who say that it is not easy to do ten things; In my eyes, no matter how you change, it will also become a factor that will cause chaos and stability in the country, is it not at fault that the change of the law provokes the struggle for imperial power? ”

Hearing this, Cui Wenqing couldn't help but shake his head and laugh, and then smiled and said: "Bachelor, no matter how the world defines the change, whether it is a means for the official family to seize power from the Queen Mother, or whether it is An Shixianggong's desire to consolidate his power, but it can't deny the positive significance of the change, why not?" As far as the current situation of Daqi is concerned, Wenzhi does not try to enrich the country and strengthen the people, but his martial arts have suffered successive defeats, in fact, compared to the prosperous Han and Tang dynasties, Daqi is like a newborn and immature baby, too weak, too thin. ”

"That's a mistake!" Chen Ningmo shook his head disagreeingly and said, "In the past, when the Han Dynasty was in trouble, the Xiongnu in the north were in trouble, and the Han Gaozu still had the shame of Bai Deng's quest for peace, and the founding of the Tang Dynasty was troubled, and the Tang Gaozu still had the humiliation of being called a minister and paying tribute. After that, Mei Mei looked at Cui Wenqing with blazing eyes, obviously waiting for his reply.

Cui Wenqing shook his head and sighed lightly: "The words of the bachelor are to seek a sword for the carving boat, after all, the flowing water has gone, the situation is not yesterday, today is different from the past, how can the situation of the past day, talk about today's success or failure!" ”

Chen Ningmo said unconvinced: "Then tell me, why is this different from the past?" ”

Cui Wenqing said solemnly: "The situation around Daqi is complicated, the enemy in the north is particularly strong, the Liao, Xia and Tubo people don't care for the time being, there are also the gold people of Montenegro, and the Mongols of Mongolia are quietly rising, these ethnic groups are skilled in bows and horses, strong martial arts, and one day will become the opponent of our Great Qi, and since the loss of the sixteen states of Yanyun, our dynasty has lost the front position to resist the northern nomads, when the Yellow River freezes in winter, the iron cavalry of the Liao people can swarm across the river and besiege the hinterland of our Central Plains. ”

"As far as the Han and Tang dynasties are concerned, they are all cavalry against cavalry, which means that it is necessary to train a high-quality cavalry team in order to have the strength to compete with the northern enemy, but it is a pity that the current Hetao has fallen into the hands of Tubo, and the land of horse breeding in northern Xinjiang has also fallen to Liao, and our dynasty has no chance to develop cavalry on a large scale, so strategically, we will be at a disadvantage for a long time."

Hearing Cui Wenqing's words, Chen Ningmo opened her mouth and wanted to refute, but she knew that what Cui Wenqing said was the truth, indeed, the above words were sincere to the military shortcomings of Daqi, and they could not be changed overnight.

However, when he said this, Cui Wenqing's tone became high-pitched, he clenched his fists, and said with a calm gaze: "So we must change the law, eliminate the domestic shortcomings through the law, earn money and food for the country through the law, reform the current situation of the army through the law, and make everyone in the court work together through the law, so that the entire Daqi can fight against foreign enemies." ”

"The reason why I want to develop animal husbandry and cotton cultivation is to make money for the people's livelihood on the one hand, but more importantly, it is to provide sufficient meat for our army, provide warm clothing, and eat and clothe the Quartet."

"This is the essence of the change, and it is also the pursuit of the change, but if you are a scholar and only regard the change as a tool for the official family to seize power, then the vision is really too short-sighted......"

After saying this, Cui Wenqing stopped speaking, he sighed lightly and looked at Zhongtian Mingyue, feeling inexplicable in his heart.

After listening to the words, Chen Ningmo was deeply shocked.

For her, Cui Wenqing's words can be described as deafening, and it also gives her a sense of looking up at a majestic mountain.

What is the purpose of changing the law, Cui Wenqing said very clearly, enriching the country and strengthening the people, and sweeping away foreign enemies.

For a long time, many ministers of the DPRK and China have regarded the reform of the law as a means for the two factions to seize power, so they have ignored the reform of the law, despised the change, and even opposed the change of law because of their different political views.

In this battle for imperial power, she neither wanted her imperial brother Chen Hong to lose, nor did she want Chen Xuan, the king of Qi, to lose power, after all, these two were her beloved brothers very much.

Therefore, from the bottom of his heart, Chen Ningmo was also very disgusted with the change, and felt that the change was the key factor that caused the two officials to fight each other.

However, after listening to Cui Wenqing's words today, Chen Ningmo realized that he was wrong, and it was very wrong.

Compared with Cui Wenqing's foresight and vision in the law change, her pattern is too narrow and ridiculous.

Thinking of this, Chen Ningmo couldn't help but show a wry smile, full of worries but didn't want to think about it anymore, just nodded with the feeling from intuition: "Maybe you are right, there are great benefits to changing the law, and the eyes of the imperial brother and Wang Anshi are not just limited to seizing power, but really for the continuation of the Great Qi country." ”

Cui Wenqing smiled and said: "Yes, in fact, in the teacher's heart, changing the law is equivalent to his political ambition and political life, he was born to change the law, and he can die at any time to change the law, just as the teacher's poem said: not afraid of clouds and clouds, only because he is at the top!" ”
