Chapter 419 Ambition is growing!
Xie Jin's words surprised many people.
Many people didn't pay much attention to Xie Jin before.
Nothing else.
Xie Jin is too young.
They were only twenty years old. None of them were in their early twenties. Even Zhuo Jing, who was almost forty, would not take Xie Jin seriously. Even when he first showed his talent in the teahouse last time, he just thought that young people had a certain talent. Gu Mang Jin, I admire Xia Zhibai more, that's all.
But today, Xie Jin's words completely changed their minds.
Xie Jin is not a blind follower, but he really has his own ideas and is not simply unconventional.
Many people are secretly alert.
Don't dare to underestimate this young talent anymore.
Even Ren Hengtai had a strange look on his face. He glanced at Xie Jin a few times, but he didn't take it to heart. Xie Jin did have some thoughts of his own, but they were still too superficial and did not have much substance. direction.
Ren Hengtai said: "Your Highness, I also have some ideas."
"Say." Zhu Biao said gently.
Ren Hengtai said: "As Zhuo Shi said before, Ming Dynasty's change should be based on pragmatism. This kind of pragmatism cannot only exist on the surface, but when it is implemented in reality, it needs to be layered and graded. It cannot be based on Be pragmatic and practical.”
"The most important thing for Ming Dynasty now is to improve people's livelihood."
“Food is the first priority for the people.”
"If we only focus on 'seeking change' and doing some icing on the cake, but do not strengthen the foundation and improve the people's livelihood, no matter how many changes we make, they will just be flowers on the brocade and will soon wither. We must first improve agricultural capabilities. It’s the top priority.”
"Only when farming is developed, people are stable and can afford to eat, can they have the mind and energy to do more things."
"Otherwise any 'change' will be useless."
“It’s all in vain.”
Ren Hengtai's words were a bit harsh.
He also knew that what he said was a bit harsh, but he came from a local place and had personally experienced the hardships of people's livelihood. He knew that scholars should not forget their roots, let alone ignore the facts and tell lies for the sake of a so-called official career. Changes without a foundation are all meaningless. The source of water may indeed achieve a lot of political achievements in the beginning, but after the excitement, it will probably be nothing more than chicken feathers, and it may very well shake the livelihood of local people.
This was something he didn't want to accept.
Therefore, even if he was a little impulsive and a little offended, he still expressed his thoughts truthfully.
He believes it.
Your Highness will not be blamed for this.
I also believe that His Highness truly loves the people.
Hear the words.
Others looked sideways.
Wu Qian and Zhuo Jing snorted coldly, their expressions getting uglier. Compared with their speeches, both Xie Jin and Ren Hengtai were obviously more independent and thoughtful. This comparison completely compared them. , especially this Ren Hengtai, who is even more cunning. He knows that His Highness cares about the people and yet he still does what he wants. He really is very deep in the city.
Xie Jin looked at Ren Hengtai, thoughtfully.
He was indeed a bit ill-considered and a bit one-sided.
What Ren Hengtai said is reasonable. People's livelihood should not be taken into consideration. Changes must be based on reality. If we deviate from the actual situation and force changes, it will only be counterproductive and may even produce worse results.
Xie Jin nodded.
There was a bit of respect in his eyes.
The smile on Zhu Biao's lips grew wider. Ren Hengtai was also a talent. Compared to Xie Jin's youth, Ren Hengtai was undoubtedly more mature and steady. Even if he wanted to change, he would not act rashly, but would act steadily, one step at a time. Footprints, and will not be easily impatient. This kind of person can rest assured. It’s not easy to get into trouble.
Others are not without their merits.
It's just that compared to Xie Jin and Ren Hengtai, they are not so outstanding.
He actually doesn't like being too aggressive.
It is easy to lose control if you are too radical. As a person in power, you must try your best to avoid such uncontrolled things. However, the views of Xie Jin and Ren Hengtai are in line with his wishes, and they are also considered feasible by Zhu Biao. of.
Seeing this, other scholars expressed their opinions and opinions one after another.
There are even some who are radical and find new ways.
Even Zhu Biao felt refreshed after listening to it.
Those present were all well-educated people, all local celebrities, very knowledgeable, and had been living in the local area. Many of their views were simple and practical, which were obviously different from the ideas of many officials in the court. This also made Zhu Biao Gained a deeper understanding of the actual local situation.
Zhu Biao was very satisfied with this meeting.
Ren Hengtai and other scholars were also very satisfied.
Because Zhu Biao gave them a very good impression. He basically did not restrict their ideas and did not deny them easily. He would also give serious responses. He was indeed very pragmatic and paid attention to people's livelihood. This made everyone excited and thought that the world Once a holy prince is born, the Ming Dynasty will have another wise king.
After some lively discussion, the East Palace Wing gradually became quiet.
Ren Hengtai and other scholars have left one after another.
Zhu Biao was sitting in the study, flipping through the meeting notes written down by civil servants, and looking at the opinions put forward by local scholars. Zhu Biao nodded with satisfaction and said, "Sure enough, as Xia Zhibai said, the world is not There is a lack of practical methods, but a lack of eyes for discovery.”
"If given a chance, someone will climb up."
"I just briefly mentioned 'seeking change', but these people proposed no less than ten practical ways in this direction. On the contrary, the officials of the Ming Dynasty, when faced with these situations, seemed to be restrained and cautious. “More.”
"Don't dare to speak, can't speak, for fear of saying the wrong thing!"
Zhu Biao shook his head.
He put down the notes in his hand.
He has gradually realized the benefits of "one emperor and one courtier". Compared with those officials in the court who pursue "harmony and harmony", these newly emerging scholars are undoubtedly more energetic and energetic, and easier to control. , a little win over, and he is full of gratitude, which is much better than the courtiers.
Zhu Biao ordered that this note be sent to His Majesty.
Let His Majesty take a look.
After finishing all the instructions, Zhu Biao pressed his temples, as if he had thought of something, and said softly: "Xia Zhibai, Xia Zhibai, are you leading Gu Gu step by step into the trap you set? But Gu Gu I really can’t refuse.”
He can feel it.
I actually fell into Xia Zhibai's thoughts again.
Because these thoughts that came to him, without exception, were all mentioned by Xia Zhibai before.
It's just that he was very wary at the time and didn't have many ideas, but now that he really started to try it, he suddenly realized that this feeling of being able to use his fingers like an arm is indeed much better than that of the court minister.
Zhu Biao was not too obsessed.
He knows very well that some things cannot be rushed or forced.
He was very worried that as his ambitions increased step by step, he would offend his father. In his heart, he was still afraid and fearful of his father, and he really did not want to arouse his father's dissatisfaction and suspicion. Therefore, he has always insisted on one approach, which is No matter what you do, you must report it to your father truthfully.
It will be implemented more firmly in the future.
