Su Yonglin didn't want to bring state affairs home.

Leaving the boundaries between the family and the country is not a good thing for family life.

Zhao Xixin's understanding also made Su Yonglin feel relieved, and made Su Yonglin determined to have a brief conversation with those people, so that when the new policy of this country is about to be fully rolled out, let them know what they should do the most.

Cultivating a smart and capable senior official is a very difficult thing. Whether it is a military general or an administrative official, all of which are experienced and very capable, are the wealth of this country.

Without any necessity, Su Yonglin did not want to attack them, nor did she want to send the outstanding senior cadres who had been trained to Sakhalin Island to repair houses and ports, which was also a waste.

As long as they can still do things and as long as they do not commit crimes, Su Yonglin does not want to make the last step.

Unless they seek death, take their own paths and completely reach the opposite side of the people, there is nothing to say and must be taken down.

Su Yonglin's ideal society is a society without exploitation and oppression, but it is also a society where the laws are clear and regular, from top to bottom, everyone follows the law.

This law is not strict. More regulations are to create a good environment for people's livelihood in the use of public power, without excessive interference with people's livelihood.

This is actually very difficult.

Rules are not derogatory terms. Rules mean stability, and stability means stable continuation of people's livelihoods.

He actually admires the Han prime minister Cao Shen very much.

He believed that the word Xiao Gui Cao Sui should actually be neutral and should not become a derogatory word in daily life, and end up being treated the same as the one who sticks to the rules.

Cao Shen was a military general and was an expert in warfare, but he was not very good at establishing the country during peacetime.

After the founding of the Han Dynasty, Liu Bang didn't know what was going on, so he asked Cao Shen, who had made great achievements in military affairs, to help his eldest son Liu Fei manage Qi and become the prime minister of Qi.

Cao Shen didn't feel wronged, but he didn't know anything about governing the country. He was stunned when facing a series of messes in Qi.

At this time, Cao Shen's advantages as a professional soldier were used to make use of his advantages.

Professionals in the industry with higher industry barriers often have a better habit, that is, they especially respect the opinions of professionals.

As an excellent general, Cao Shen knew the truth that one was like a mountain. He also knew that he was unprofessional in governing the country, which would cause bad things. If he didn't make a good deal, he would have to die. His strong worries and professional consciousness made him hired a professional, Gong Gai, a professional, to be advised to govern the country with a high salary.

The professional Gai Gong, who was hired by him for a high salary, took money and eliminated disasters with others, so he told him that it was very simple to govern the country. As long as he acted in accordance with the laws formulated by the state, he was well-organized, and provided the people with a safe and stable environment, and nothing else was needed.

The key to governing a country is that the government must not be happy with achievements, pursue political achievements, and interfere too much in the affairs of the people. Just let it go.

This practice has been criticized for a long time and is considered a wrong practice of not being enterprising.

It is true that Su Yonglin himself admitted that this approach is problematic, but the real core of this theory of handling affairs is not to do nothing, but to [do things according to the law].

For vulnerable groups, doing this is almost a duty and it is not difficult.

But for those who hold power, this is exactly the most difficult thing to do.

Cao Shen did it, not only did it himself, but also led a group of officials under his command to do it together. He governed Qi according to this method. Nine years later, Qi became very prosperous, the economy was also very good, and it developed very well.

After that, when Xiao He died, Emperor Hui Liu Ying was transferred to Cao Shen, who had made great contributions in governing Qi, to become the prime minister of the Central Committee. Facing a brand new challenge, Cao Shen's actions after taking office were shocking.

He fully understood a group of officials under his command, and then almost dismissed all capable officials who were efficient, eloquent, and ambitious, and promoted a group of honest officials who only knew how to follow the steps and act according to the rules, and told them to do things according to the rules and not to go beyond it.

After that, he was completely relieved, drinking, eating meat and listening to small songs all day long, and his life was booming.

Emperor Hui was very angry when he learned about it, so he quickly came over to ask the crime and asked Cao Shen why he did this and was worthy of his trust.

The story that happened after this is the allusion of the famous Xiao Gui and Cao Sui.

Of course, Cao Shen is not a fool or a lazy person. He is just a very disciplined and professional professional, and he is also a good political mind.

Not to mention that the sharp contradictions of the Han central government during the reign of Empress Lü did not allow a prime minister who showed his edge to make a difference. As long as Xiao He has set a principle of effective governance that has been proven to be effective, it will definitely allow the people to recuperate and the country will be prosperous.

Cao Shen knew even more clearly that the Han Dynasty, which had just been established at that time, experienced wars at the end of the Qin Dynasty and the war between Liu Bang to attack the vassal states, was really a mess. At this time, if a political achievement project was carried out for personal fame and fortune, the result would be disastrous for the Han Dynasty.

After studying, Cao Shen had already had a good understanding of the bureaucracy created by the official system.

As the saying goes, one official position will benefit the people. Whether it is for one's own political achievements or the lives of the people, everything you should do must be done - otherwise how can you get promoted by political achievements?

Qualifications? Wait for nothing to grow old?

No, you must take the initiative. If you have difficulties, you must solve them. If you have difficulties, you must solve them. If you have difficulties, you must also solve them if you have difficulties.

Since ancient times, there have been many bureaucrats.

You have no difficulties, how can I get promotion in politics?

In ancient times, the courts would also hold annual meetings, financial meetings and military meetings, etc. At the beginning of the year, they would standardize the things they should do in the year and prepare how much they spend. If they were strictly implemented according to the budget, there would definitely be no problems in the finances.

Of course this is impossible.

It was precisely because of this that Cao Shen suppressed his personal desire to "promote power" and demonstrate his power, and did not make trouble. He led a group of officials who were honest and honest in doing things according to the rules. Not only did he not attract the suppression of Empress Lu, he also safely spent his three-year term as prime minister and died of illness.

Later, Cao Shen, who drank, ate meat and listened to small songs all day long, was called the virtuous prime minister.

The actions of the ruling teams of the prime ministers in the early Han Dynasty were called rule by inaction, which accumulated a strong foundation for national strength for the Han Dynasty.

During the reign of Emperor Wu of Han, in order to counterattack the Huns, he changed the inaction to act in a political way, and to unify people's hearts politically and to adapt to the trend of abolishing all schools of thought and respecting Confucianism, he denied to a certain extent the practice of governing inaction in the early Han Dynasty.

However, in Su Yonglin's view, there is no way of governing it can be called governing by inaction, and true inaction cannot govern the country at all.

The so-called inaction is essentially a form of organization with a large group of capable people to formulate perfect laws in the early days of the establishment of the dynasty, and after eliminating the ill-fated policies of the previous generation, they act according to the rules, and officials abide by the rules, do not cause trouble, and rest with the people. It is a form of organization with low losses.

During the period of peaceful construction, the advantages of this low-loss model are obvious. It is only during the period of total war, and this low-loss organizational form cannot adapt to high-intensity total war.

Think about it and understand that once a human society forms an organization, where can there be such a so-called governance by inaction?

The people's physical sense of inaction just proves the success of the government's rule.

The government set up a set of rules and entered it. Everyone acted in accordance with the rules, not transcending, not acting randomly, and not breaking the rules. Over time, the initial initiative became the physical inaction of the lower class people.

If you want to accomplish big things, you need to be promising.

If you want to govern a country well, accumulate national strength, and gain recognition from the people, reduce the cost of governance, restore people's livelihood and the population lost due to war, you need to "govern it by doing nothing".

Although times have changed and the times have changed, the inaction-based governance advocated by Huang Lao's studies in the early Han Dynasty is no longer possible to adapt to the current state of productivity. If you force yourself back to the past, it would be like Wang Mang, which was a large-scale social experiment doomed to failure.

But its nature is not outdated.

That is, everyone abides by the rules, whether it is official or civil.

It is not difficult to abide by the rules among the people, but it is difficult to abide by the rules by the officials, because the rules themselves are also set by the officials. How to make the officials also abide by the rules tests the ruling level of the ruling person.

This is the essence of treatment by inaction.

Cao Shen did not have the prestige of Liu Bang or the genius of Xiao He, so he drove out the unstable elements who liked to make trouble and wanted to get promoted and make money every day from his ruling team, and replaced them with a group of honest people who only knew how to do things according to the rules and regulations to help him implement the rules and regulations left by Xiao He.

Officials abide by the rules means not to make trouble, less infringement of private interests, lower administrative and judicial costs, and social harmony and economic prosperity.

Of course, whether it is for the Western Han Dynasty or the Ming Dynasty, Cao Shen's approach can only have a positive effect within a certain period of time. When it is the turn of a period of change, this mechanism will inevitably change.

But the problem is that this switching was almost irreversible for ancient dynasties.

Once the ancient imperial court ended this state of inaction with light taxes and low taxes for some reason, it was almost impossible to switch back after the major events that needed to be dealt with. The next rule of inaction would inevitably be the next dynasty.

Because after a proactive change exhausts people's strength, the bureaucrats no longer abide by the rules and no longer give the people a chance to rest next time, and continue to be so promising.

In the agricultural era, the people's strength was not accumulated quickly and not enough to withstand the "prosperity" of the bureaucrats' repeated successes. The farmers will accelerate bankruptcy and the empire will accelerate their demise.

At this point, Su Yonglin no longer wants the country he established to remain in a prosperous state even after he dies, but he cannot allow the country to fall into depravity.

So he decided to establish three sets of mechanisms for the Ming Dynasty and three sets of rules under the three mechanisms.

The first set of mechanisms is the mechanism in the period of peace construction, the second set of mechanisms is the mechanism in the period of local war, and the third set of mechanisms is the mechanism in the period of comprehensive war.

He wanted to formulate these three mechanisms when he was still alive, so that it would become the implementation of the three rules of the Ming Dynasty, and determine these three rules through legal forms, which would become a consensus among the whole people.

What happened to the Ming Dynasty in the future? It depends on three situations and decide which mechanism to enable.

Judging from what Su Yonglin himself has learned, it is relatively easy to transform from inaction to inaction, and it is quite difficult to switch from inaction to state of inaction.

The reason is very simple.

In a state of inaction, the officials abide by the rules and cannot do whatever they want. The people rely on the rules and have strong countermeasures. The officials need more concessions to the people, so it is more difficult to become an official.

In short, officials who want to be promoted and have a reputation will not feel comfortable during their inaction.

In an active state, due to various needs and inaction rules are broken, the official power begins to freeze the previous rules, the tentacles of power penetrate into all aspects of society, and power suddenly increases, making it easier to mobilize in general.

Under this situation, the manpower, material resources and financial resources mobilized were quite terrifying. Emperor Wu of Han used this to mobilize the entire Han Dynasty to launch an unprecedentedly fierce strategic strike against the Huns.

However, this is not without a price.
