Chapter 307 Don't Kill (Part 2)

Wang Jixun's human flesh was quickly spread in the capital, but no one dared to talk about the cause of Mrs. Huarui's death.

But her death was effective. Not only did no one dare to talk about Mrs. Huarui's death, but few people dared to talk about the right and wrong of Zhao Kuangyi.

As a result, Zhao Kuangyi's rectification of Dongshuimen became very smooth.

He asked Song Jiu, and Song Jiu said that I didn't want to take over. In fact, no one except Song Jiu had the ability to take over. Then there was only one way to restore it naturally. But one thing had to be done before, planting willows and tearing the grass shed.

It is not that simple to continue to be executed. What should I do if the houses beside the Willow River are planted? What should I do if the servants demolish the straw shed?

As spring gradually deepened, Zhao Kuangyi began to rectify. Not only did he plant willows, but he also built a road by the river. Song Jiu said, could Zhao Kuangyi not understand Song Jiu's meaning? In fact, Song Jiu's idea was very simple, making the environment in Hebei beautiful, and naturally tourists would come and the vitality would be restored. But in this way, more houses would be demolished. Zhao Kuangyi sent some staff to check it out. Except for some houses that must be preserved, the road was bypassed, and the rest would be written with big words for demolition. The limit was to be demolished within fifteen days, otherwise the government would send yamen runners to demolish them forcibly.

If you demolish it yourself, you can still get some bricks, tiles and wood. When the officers, soldiers and yamen runners come, they can't get anything.

Then there are those straw sheds.

The yamen's contract fell down, and many yamen stopped or moved to Hezhou. However, some yamen remained at their posts, mainly workshops. These workshops could still make some small profits. There were craftsmen and servants, but the treatment was slightly better than before, and no one dared to abuse the servants too much. However, these straw huts are also written with the words "demolition". Where do the servants live, you can find a way to keep it. It is your ability to keep it, and it is your incompetence. But these simple straw huts must also be demolished within half a month.

Then cooperate with Su Xiao to integrate the ghost store.

It doesn’t matter if the diner is empty, but it must be estimated at the cost and then the Chenggu tax is levied. The previous tax was not included, but the taxes for the previous year must be paid, and the taxes for the year must be paid in full this year. The Chenggu tax rate is not high, but one tax is not taxed. It is completely different. Use this to force the store owner to sell the empty store at a very low price, and he can’t sell it himself, so that the empty houses will be left unoccupied and the yin energy will be lingered all night.

If it were the past, this would have been a big hornet's nest, but Kaifeng Mansion will continue to carry out this execution smoothly.

Zhao Kuangyi was rectifying Hebei. Zhao Kuangyin was studying in the palace. When he read the section of the Shangshu Yao Dian, he said with emotion: "During Yao and Shun, the four evil crimes were only surrendered. Why is the modern constitutional network so secret?"

Lu Duosun said: "Your Majesty is already a benevolent monarch. Since Kaibao, those who are not evil will often have their deaths. Since the second year of Kaibao, there have been almost four or five thousand people who have committed suicide. "

Zhao Kuangyin was a little satisfied, but he frowned for a while and asked, "Rumored that Song Jiu was in charge of Huizhou for two years and no death row was sentenced to death?"

"Your Majesty, this son doesn't like to kill people. He is a small state and has a short time. Even if he is not sentenced to death, it is quite normal."

Zhao Kuangyin was not confused by Lu Duosun's words. What a joke? Huizhou is still a small state? Tens of thousands of households and hundreds of thousands of people. It is the fourth largest province with the largest number of households in Guangnan. It is not easy to execute a prisoner for two years in power. He said: "Lu Qing, check it out and confirm that there is this matter."

Lu Duoxun was not too repulsive. So he went down to check and found that this was indeed true. This made Zhao Kuangyin interested. Why is the officials in the museum and the people in the capital not necessarily attracting the attention of the emperor. Only when the emperor pays attention can he do it.

Zhao Kuangyin could forget Song Jiu's drinks all day long.

When Song Jiu was brought to the palace, Zhao Kuangyin did not ask about the death row prisoners first, but asked Xiaomai: "Song Jiu, how is that piece of wheat growing?"

"Report to Your Majesty, you are growing well."

"I must go and see it myself when I get it."

"Your Majesty, that kind of phosphate fertilizer cannot be produced, so no matter how good the output is, you can't count it. All you get is seeds. Even after the seeds are promoted, they may not be able to adapt and may degrade quickly." Song Jiu said calmly, even if there is no high yield, there is no worry, and there is no joy in high yield.

"Wrong, I still have to see it."

Song Jiu didn't make a sound this time, just look at it. Maybe he would give Zhao Kuangyin a surprise, but he wouldn't give himself a surprise. No matter how productive he is, he would definitely not be able to achieve his goal.

Zhao Kuangyin asked again: "Song Jiu, have you ever sentenced to death in Huizhou?"

Song Jiu thought carefully that in Guangnan, he had to manage Huizhou and take care of the entire Lingnan. He really never thought about it. After thinking for a long time, he said, "It's probably not."

In addition to Zhao Kuangyin, there were several other important officials in the hall. It was a trivial matter for Song Jiu to kill but not kill anyone. It was a criminal prison in a state, but he could decide whether the world was lenient or severe punishment through some of his practices. Therefore, several prime ministers and relevant important officials were invited to sit in the hall.

Song Jiu said: "Why does Your Majesty care about this?"

Zhao Kuangyin said: "I saw Yao Dian a few days ago and only exiled the four evildoers. I feel that today's criminal law is strict and I want to enforce lenient punishment, so I summon you to the palace to ask."

As soon as he said it, Song Jiu understood. Generally speaking, Zhao Kuangyin was very lenient in his torture, especially after Tianbao, he never committed any more tribe punishment. This may have been influenced by Buddhism. At the beginning, Zhao Kuangyin probably might not believe in Buddhism. However, he often went to Xiangguo Temple and was repeatedly brainwashed by the monks. It turned out that it was easy to say whether Zhao Kuangyin believed it or not, but now he must believe it.

Song Jiu hesitated and said, "I didn't pay much attention to whether I was sentenced to death in Huizhou. But that was an exception. Liu Yu was tyrannical and Huizhou was right next to Guangzhou. He was deeply hurt. The Weichen released the prisoners and won some reputations. The people expected it. The Weichen also did some benevolent policies, so there were not many people who committed great evil, but now it is difficult to let Weichen go to Huizhou again."

This is the truth, but Song Jiu did not stop and continued, "As for whether to kill or not, I think that killing cannot be said to be wrong, and I can't be said to not killing people. Maybe I was not sentenced to death in Huizhou, but I once suggested that General Pan Yin and the other generals build the roads to the mountain villages for control, which leads to more serious convictions. In fact, it is equivalent to killing people in disguise. Besides, if you don't kill people, Buddhism does not like to kill people, but I just returned from the West and talked about the matter of India. India has the beauty of the Ganges, carrying gold and silver, and countless pearls and jade. It is a first-class treasure.

Tianhua Place. But except for a few people, most people in these large and small Buddhist countries have a hard life, almost similar to the pseudo-Southern Han Dynasty under tyranny. The reason for this is that the ugly caste system cannot match people, and the other is that there is no perfect system. What is the system? Whether it is the benevolence of Confucianism and Buddhism, or the benevolence of the West, it is actually the love for the people as the core, and it is mixed with the laws of the Legalists as the auxiliary to deterrence, and use both kindness and power, so the country can be safe for a long time. There is no Confucianism in the West, and some countries are no less powerful than our dynasty. It has lasted longer than that of the Tang Dynasty."

When Song Jiu said this, he suddenly changed his voice and said, "It's like eating people. Yao Chang of the Former Qin Dynasty ate people, but he loved the people. Although he was a villain, he was a real villain. Eating people only ate dead bodies, so he could establish a country. Zhang Xun and Xu Yuan were siege people in Juzhou City, and he was surrounded by hundreds of times the rebels. They used their blood to build a flesh-and-blood Great Wall for tens of millions of people in the Jianghuai River. Because they lacked food, they became martyrs. However, Huang Chao and Zhu Jie were entrusted with people, and five horses were dismembered and the evil was not enough to destroy their evil."

At the beginning, the words were said well, but after this turn, Zhao Kuangyin's face changed drastically.

Zhao Kuangyi sat next to him and wanted to go up and kick Song Jiu hard.

However, Song Jiu did not say much, and then turned it back: "Tang Taizong once released dozens of death row prisoners. Forgive him to go home to reunite, no prisoner escaped, and then he would claim his death row. Do you believe it? If Your Majesty secretly instructed the officials to claim his death row prisoner, the weak minister would also guarantee a miracle in our dynasty. But then, how do the victim's family think in the hearts? Yao and Shun only exiled the four evildoers. First, they could not believe it in the ancient times. It was too far away. Second, the people were not open and ignorant at that time. If time is now turned back, it would be a serious regression. Therefore, it cannot be used.

In ancient times, things in the past were compared with our dynasty. As for whether to kill or not, I thought that I could not kill people without seeking kindness, without the law, and the people were lazy, and some illegal people would do whatever they wanted. I could not kill too much. If I kill too much, there would be unjust killing and the people would resent it. I could kill people, but I could not kill people who should be killed, but I could not kill people who should be killed. I had cut some cases in Huizhou, but if there were criminals who should be killed, I would not forgive them for their reputation. But if there were no ones who should be killed, I would not deliberately kill them to avoid suspicion. This is the idea of ​​the humble minister.”

If there was no such thing as eating human flesh, Song Jiu's discussion could be recorded in history even after this era appeared.

However, after having a human flesh, Zhao Kuangyin just silently.

...

Song Jiu gradually let go of the Hezhou area. Except for some open spaces in the north and south, they were basically completed. If it weren't for the research, it would have required a lot of money and silk, Song Jiu would have wanted to hand it over to the court now.

But Song Jiu has not yet released on the sea.

When it comes to dividends, only the two companies are partially popular.

Pan Weide and his brothers did not check the accounts. Song Jiu said that as much as they were. Of course, Song Jiu would not embezzle the Pan family's income. After dividing the accounts, Pan Weide sighed: "How can I use this money?"

"Isn't it easy to use it? Or we will join forces to run an island in the future."

"A little island."

"It's just to run a small island in the South China Sea."

"Like a bearded guest?" Pan Wei said righteously.

"The Bearded Guest is just a legend. The Tang Dynasty recorded the volcanic country five thousand miles east of the Kingdom of Japa (the Bearded Guest is Java, and there are also active volcanoes. It is unknown where it is five thousand miles east. Is it Oceania or a misrepresented by the Tongdian), which is already the depth of the South China Sea islands. Why are there no traces of the founding capital of the Kingdom where the Bearded Guest has been?"

Song Jiu was inspired by his feelings.

The flaws do not hide the merits. Zhao Kuangyin should be considered a wise ruler, otherwise he would not dare to mention human flesh indirectly. However, Zhao Kuangyin did not do well in many places. This cannot be blamed for Zhao Kuangyin. The system has come step by step. Even if Song Jiu has the ability to accelerate technology for 500 and 600 years and the system cannot keep up, he still worried about this country. Or he doesn't want future generations. If you want future generations, you don't want them to pay money, but to give them a safe place.

The two families have become more and more financially powerful and more ships. If they carry sufficient weapons, the people on the ship can gradually adapt to the hot weather in the South China Sea, then they will be killed by small countries. Now there are few people and immigration is not successful, but this time will be very fast, at most thirty years, the country's population will keep up.

Song Jiu may be joking or to be honest.

However, the Pan Weide brothers thought he was joking.

Song Jiu didn't talk much and asked, "How is the south?"

"Stop."

"Stop?" Song Jiu was shocked. He followed Pan Mei to the south and now he knew a little. Cao Bin's army went east and passed 100,000 Tang troops across Hukou. The nature was similar to Pan Mei. Pan Mei skipped Pan Chongche's 50,000 Han troops and entered Lianzhou Shaozhou. The Southern Han might have organized 100,000 troops to fight in time, but it was a mob, and the strongest army was still in the hands of Pan Chongche. This was the military operation of beheading. Therefore, Cao Bin's trip was fast, Jinling was in crisis, and the 100,000 Tang troops at Hukou had no morale, so he could only surrender. Once a protracted war was fought, the 100,000 Tang troops were mobilized to support the Tang Dynasty, the price of pacifying the southern Tang Dynasty would be heavy.
