Chapter 170 The dragon slayer finally turns into a dragon?(2/2)
This is also the biggest and most essential difference between the old civil servant group and the Qinwang scholars.
The priority of the old civil servant group was always to weaken the imperial power, block people's wisdom, and ensure the interests of this class.
The Qin Prince's priority has become to ensure the interests of the common people, then the emperor's authority, and finally the interests of the officials and the gentry.
I don’t know what will happen in the future.
But at least now, all the Qin Wang scholars are full of vigor and ideals.
At least for now, what the Qinwang scholars want is to destroy their own class!
Because the Qin princes and scholars discovered that the stubbornness and greed of the officials and the gentry had made the bureaucracy of the Ming Dynasty extremely inefficient and corrupt, and it also made it difficult for the common people of the Ming Dynasty to breathe.
If the officials and gentry group of the Ming Dynasty could not be eliminated, there would be no hope for the Ming Dynasty.
If the officials and gentry group of the Ming Dynasty could not be eliminated, the common people of Li would not be able to live a good life.
What Qin Wang Shizi thinks about is not how big an official he wants to be, not meritorious deeds, virtues, and words to achieve the status of a saint, nor is it promotion and wealth, or divination of his wife and children, but just to enable all people in the world to live a good life!
…
And this was also the original intention that Chongzhen instilled in the Qinwang scholars during the two-month painful march.
Chongzhen wanted to tell these scholars that your meritorious service is not for my Zhu family, but for all the people in the world. Your only mission as an official is to make the people live a good life.
Of course, there is no need to deny that this is just a story told during the entrepreneurial stage.
When the business is successful, Chongzhen will have another story to tell.
The dragon slayer will eventually become the evil dragon. This is the cyclical rate of history, and no one can escape it.
Because human society ultimately needs a ruling class, and it can never be exempted from this.
When these diligent princes and scholars grow up and kill the old officials and gentry group, it won't be long before they become what they once hated the most.
But in essence, the Qinwangshizi and the old officials and gentry group are still two different classes.
The old group of officials and gentry represents the interests of the landlord class, while the diligent princes and scholars will represent capital.
In short, as a time traveler, Chongzhen knew better than anyone else that running the world under one family was unsustainable. Zhu Yuanzhang's desire to protect the Zhu family's world forever by nurturing the clan has been proven to be wishful thinking. The iron-blooded massacre of the slaves and the stupid pig-raising policy of the slaves can be done.
Guaranteeing a home for the next three hundred years, but this is definitely not what Chongzhen wanted.
Therefore, the general trend of history is majestic. If you follow it, you will prosper, and if you go against it, you will perish.
It is the general trend to develop people's wisdom and learn new things, especially with the prosperity of industry and commerce in the Ming Dynasty and the gradual growth of the power of capital, it is no longer possible for the Jin gentry clan to monopolize knowledge.
Therefore, the rise of the common people and the common people is an inevitable trend.
Well, the so-called rise of the common people is actually the rise of industrial and commercial capital.
Therefore, the royal family must transform as soon as possible from the largest landowner to the largest capitalist.
And these more than 6,000 Qinwang scholars and the countless common people they represent will also become the immediate interest class in the new era, and will have a strong interest tie with the royal family.
Only in this way can the royal family continue to exist.
Otherwise, a great revolution will break out sooner or later in the Ming Dynasty.
The sons and grandsons of the Zhu family will also be sent to the guillotine sooner or later.
