Chapter Ninety Seven Rule the country by law!
"What? The reform strategy?!"
When Zhao Qian heard this, his eyes lit up and he couldn't help but sit back to his original position.
Then he looked at Wei Yang with anticipation, obviously very curious about the strategies he had mentioned for the next reform.
After all, the foundation for the future prosperity of Qin State is hidden in the reform strategy mentioned by Wei Yang next!
At this moment, even King Zhao Zheng of Qin looked at Wei Yang with great enthusiasm, but hesitated as he was a little confused.
"This... Is this enough to give a plan to strengthen the reform when Tianji first arrived in Qinchuan?" The fastest update is:
Originally, Zhao Zheng's idea should be slowed down for a while, and only after Wei Yang better understands the specific situation of the Qin State, will he give targeted reform strategies.
After all, reforms should be strengthened, and reforms should not be made for the sake of reforms. Instead, reforms should be adapted to local conditions and combined with actual conditions.
Only in this way can we prescribe the right medicine, target our targetedness, and ultimately achieve reform and strengthening!
Therefore, after Zhao Zheng issued an order to enthrone Wei Yang as Prime Minister of Qin, he did not in a hurry to ask him how he should do the best.
Instead, he was ready to discuss the matter after Wei Yang had a better understanding of Qin.
However, Wei Yang suddenly spoke up today, and he seemed to have a reform strategy suitable for the national conditions of Qin!
But because of this, Zhao Zheng couldn't help but ask questions in his heart.
How long has Wei Yang just arrived in Qin? How could he come up with a countermeasure so quickly?
After all, reform is not something that can be made simple by treating guests to dinner.
"Reporting to my king, I want to make some corrections... I did not first arrive in Qinchuan, but only arrived in Hanyang!"
When Wei Yang heard the inquiry from His Highness the King of Qin, he immediately turned around and bowed and said.
"If I really count it, I have been in Qin since I entered Hulao Pass... it should have been more than two months!"
As soon as these words were spoken, Zhao Zheng and Zhao Qian suddenly looked at each other, and then subconsciously looked at each other.
After all, in order to find Wei Yang, the two of them made a special trip to Hulao Pass!
Now, he heard what Wei Yang said, that he had already passed through Hulao Pass and entered the Qin territory two months ago.
Then wouldn't this mean...
They happened to pass by Wei Yang by the two of them?
"After entering Qin, I passed through Hulao, Qinlong's two border fortresses, and personally stepped on more than 20 counties of Qin State! Throughout the journey, I felt the people's livelihood and explored the people's conditions... I dare not say that I knew everything about the Qin State, but if I were confident, I would not boast about it!"
With Wei Yang's casual conversation, Zhao Zheng and Zhao Qian suddenly realized.
No wonder we have never received any news from Wei Yang? It turned out that after Wei Yang entered Qin, he did not go directly to the capital of Hanyang to follow the King of Qin. Instead, he first visited the people and personally learned about the poverty and happiness of the people of Qin!
Until he knew what he knew, he chose to enter Hanyang. Then he went straight into the Yin-Year Academy and waited for His Highness the King of Qin to return.
After connecting the joints here, Zhao Zheng had no doubts about whether Wei Yang knew Qin enough!
Even... he seriously suspected that the Qin king was not as specific as Wei Yang's understanding of Qin, and it was more real!
After all... he rarely goes to the people in person to understand the people's sentiments? He knows very little about the people under his rule, and only stays on the files reported by the county government...
But Wei Yang used his feet to travel around nearly half of Qin's territory? In the most simple and effective way, he learned about a real Qin State in a very deep way!
Under this premise, the next reform strategy proposed by Wei Yang is even more exciting...
What will happen!
"Based on the basis of my in-depth understanding of the Qin State, I dared to... I have drawn up ten reform strategies for our Qin State!"
Wei Yang stood proudly in the hall and officially revealed the reform strategies that had been brewing in his heart to His Highness the King of Qin!
At this moment, he felt a little excited in his heart!
Just because he has learned throughout his life... he will finally have a stage to display himself that is enough to let go of his hands and feet!!
"This...but I don't know which ten reform strategies are?"
As soon as he opened his mouth, he saw ten reform strategies? This really scared Zhao Zheng!
Could it be that the strange thoughts in Wei Yang's mind... are they really picking up this casually?
"First! Implement the concept of governing the country according to law and governing the country according to law!"
Wei Yang suddenly stretched out his finger and said frankly without thinking!
Obviously? These ten reform strategies have been brewing and turbulent in his heart for a long time. There is no need to write a word at all. You can open your mouth at any time!
"Therefore, our Qin State should revise and promulgate the Qin Code! From princes, ministers, to ordinary people, they are subject to the limitations of the law! However, if there is any violation of the law, no matter whether it is high or low, they will be punished according to the law!"
Speaking of this, before His Highness the King of Qin spoke, Wei Yang added passionately!
"If everyone has laws to follow and everyone abides by laws and regulations! Then our Qin State's government orders should be carried out without any obstacles! Then our Qin State should be united!!"
After saying that, Wei Yang couldn't help but kneel down on the ground and said with emotion!
"My king! Governing the country according to law is the foundation of reform! After all, it is inevitable to omit omissions in the rule of man... Only the rule of law can lay the foundation for our great Qin Dynasty forever!!"
Zhao Zheng is really stunned at this moment!
He suddenly seemed to have returned to the 21st century in the future!
After all, in that era, the concept of legal system of rule of law began to be truly popularized...
But now, from Wei Yang's mouth, he heard the idea of governing the country and governing ideas of "governing the country according to law and having laws to follow"!
How can a modern person who has traveled from a modern civilized society to this day reject the concept and idea of governing the country according to law?
After all... no matter how harsh the law is, he can't be investigated by the Qin king anyway!
It is okay to talk about the rule of law to this king, and it is also OK to talk about the rule of law, but if anyone dares to say that the emperor violates the law and commits the same crime as the common people...
The king was the first to chop him down!!
Obviously, Wei Yang obviously knew the truth that it was easy to get rid of the eggs when he was too big. He just kept saying that the rule of law was the concept of governing the country according to law, and he did not dare to mention anything that the emperor broke the law...
After all, even if his thoughts were too advanced, he was still just an ancient person living in feudal society.
In this era when it is a death sentence for ministers to discuss the king, secretly talking about the king will be cut off in private. Who dares to speak nonsense about the crime of governing the king?
Isn’t that waiting to be banished by the nine tribes by the king?
Therefore, when the thoughts in his mind changed drastically, Zhao Zheng nodded and said without hesitation.
"The rule of law idea of governing the country according to law...good!"
With one word, the Qin State's future ruling philosophy of governing the country with law was immediately decided!
"My king Shengming! My king Shengming!!"
When Wei Yang heard this, he couldn't help but be overjoyed and kowtowed and said loudly!
After all, only by taking the first step of governing the country according to law can his reforms in Qin have a foundation!
This small step in governing the country by law is his big step, and even more so a big step for Qin!!
"However, the promulgation of the code is only the basis of the rule of law! If you really want to consolidate the foundation of the rule of law and make everyone abide by the law! You must impose torture and severe punishments so that the concept of the rule of law can be implanted into the court and the country and completely penetrate into the hearts of the people!"
Immediately, Wei Yang hurriedly stretched out his second finger and continued to add and say!
"The second strategy for the reform of our Qin State is to revise and promulgate the Qin Criminal Code! Implement the tortures such as joint punishment, misdemeanor crimes and severe punishments! In this way, the Qin Code and the Qin Criminal Code can ensure that our Qin... last forever! The legal system will last forever!!"
As soon as this said, I suddenly felt a bleak and solemn wind permeating the entire hall!
"this……"
When Zhao Zheng heard this, he couldn't help but feel a sudden jump when he heard words such as "continuous seat", "torture", "repeated dictionary"!
As a modern person, he naturally accepts the concept of governing the country by law without any scruples.
However, the cruel punishments such as extermination, continuation, extreme punishment, etc. that ancient people have always been accustomed to, but it is difficult to accept them in full without hindrance.
Therefore, Zhao Zheng did not agree to the second reform strategy proposed by Wei Yang on the spot, nor did he veto it on the spot.
I just shook my head gently and did not respond to it.
In Wei Yang's eyes, he was not anxious. After all, His Highness the King of Qin did not reject the matter on the spot, so in the future, there would naturally be an opportunity to turn things around!
Therefore, Wei Yang did not get involved in this reform strategy, but immediately spoke and continued to explain the next reform strategy!
"Although these two strategies basically laid the foundation for our Qin State to implement reforms, they have no contribution to strengthening the country and enriching the people!"
Wei Yang said in a deep voice, and said in a clear manner.
"Therefore, I propose the third reform policy to promulgate the Land Reclamation Order! Build water conservancy, develop agriculture on a large scale, encourage people to reclaim wasteland and farm! "
Wei Yang said as he stretched out his third finger and continued to talk.
"All those who reclaim wasteland will be given to themselves! Anyone who registers to work in agriculture will be exempted from labor service! From then on, our Qin State will prosper, and the people will no longer have food and clothing. The treasury will be filled with food and grass and stored! Then the country will be stable as usual!"
As soon as this strategy was released, Zhao Zheng and Zhao Qian couldn't help but nod.
After all, food is the most important thing for people, and food is always the top priority of ancient agricultural society!
No matter how unsafe it is to take agriculture as the foundation of the country!
What's more, Wei Yang's "Land Reclamation Order" encouraged the people to take the initiative to reclaim wasteland, and the government would help clear water conservancy. Then whoever opened up the fertile land would belong to the land!
How terrible is this tempting to ancient farmers?!
In addition, Qin has a huge land area, so if all the abandoned land can be reclaimed into fertile land, it will be a very beneficial thing for Qin!
Therefore, Zhao Zheng nodded repeatedly for such strategies that benefit the country and the people and agreed on the spot!
"But! This is a great kindness!"
...
[No history today, because writing the content of the reform is too brain-consuming!]
