Kingdom of Heaven and Han

Chapter 75 Let him go
On the square in front of the county office, a group of people gathered in front of the notice.A pedant finished reading in cadence, looked at Fang Mengchen and said, "So this is the case! Recently, the county has built a new village, and indeed bought a lot of other people's land."

The rest were talking.Some people say that Fang Mengchen is troubled, some say that the government should not do this, and they can say anything.

Fang Mengchen said loudly: "Boy can't afford such a loss! Fair business, the most important thing in business is to have one willing to sell, and another willing to buy. My family's land was handed down from my ancestors, so how can I sell it like this! "

The pedant said: "Although you don't want to sell it, the government must buy it, so naturally you can only sell it. You haven't heard of it, the people don't fight against the government. Little brother, you can only endure this matter."

Fang Mengchen said coldly: "How can I endure it? The government has forcibly occupied my land, and I have no way to get it back. Then I'll just stay here and let others know. If Zhizhou can forcefully buy my land, why not let me speak? ?"

The people on the side listened and shook their heads.This young man is too stubborn, why can't he lower his head?Now is a chaotic world, Zhizhou is all leading troops, how can there be such a good temper?Annoyed for a while, he might take this man's life.Unlike before, if you are dissatisfied with the government, you can sue the imperial court.Now the officials don't know where they are, where to sue?

Cao Zhiyan rode past and saw a group of people gathered in front.Sending a soldier over to look at it, he could not help frowning.After entering the county office, he hurriedly asked to see Wang Xiaohun.There is so much trouble outside the county office, what kind of formality is it?

Entering the door, Cao Zhiyan crossed his hands and sang a promise.Dao: "Zhizhou, I was just about to pass outside and saw a lot of noise in front of the door. I sent someone to ask, and it turned out to be a man from Fang Mengchen, whose land was bought by the government. He was dissatisfied and kept making noise before the notice. Zhizhou often said that , Now the most important thing for us is to win people's hearts. Like this, how to win people's hearts?"

Hearing this, Wang Xiaohun couldn't help laughing.Said: "If you rely on you, how can you win the hearts of the people?"

Cao Zhiyan said: "Let's not arrest that Fang Mengchen, at least send someone to escort him back to the village, and don't make any noise in the county town. He's fooling the public, and I don't know how many people are dissatisfied with Zhizhou."

Wang Xiaohun shook his head: "What you said is wrong. Is it true that the government forced the purchase of his land? He is dissatisfied, is it true? It is all true, how can you not let him say it? You stab a bird with a bamboo pole outside Nest, the birds are still chirping on your head. Forcibly buying land is something we have to do, and it’s good to make it clear to the people. If the people are not allowed to object, there will be many mistakes.”

Hearing this, Cao Zhiyan couldn't help frowning.After a while, he said, "I really don't understand this at the end of the day. Since we had to forcefully buy his land, it means we did the right thing. We did the right thing, how can we be discussed by the people!"

Wang Xiaohun looked at Cao Zhiyan and did not speak for a while.It is not easy to explain this.Not to mention this era, even in the distant future generations, many people do not understand.

Government governance, the most important thing is to unify people.People's hearts are not unified, you say yours, I say mine, one person has one idea, how can we do things?How can it be unified?The easiest way is to not allow different opinions.Even if there is, he is holding it back in his heart, and he is not allowed to say it.It is a more extreme practice to take the road to the eyes and be punished for the words.There is another kind, that is, after sufficient discussion, it has won the approval of the vast majority of people.If there is any disagreement, they will go.It can be said, but it cannot be avoided, which is called reservation.

To be honest, it is easiest for the government to use power to force the common people to have a unified understanding.The government has the violence of the regime, which common people can resist the violence?This is often what bureaucrats like best.But for the regime, doing so is extremely harmful.You can keep people from talking, but you can't let people not want to.A large number of people oppose it, and if it is suppressed for a long time, it will erupt like a volcano.

Why let Fang Mengchen say it casually?Wang Xiaohun didn't want to restrict the mouths of the people.Even if he knew that Fang Mengchen had [-] kinds of mistakes, as long as he just moved his mouth instead of directly resisting the government, then let him go.

Why do it?Wang Xiaohun thought about it, and after careful consideration, he still couldn't explain it to Cao Zhiyan.It is simple and clear, but it is difficult to get Cao Zhiyan to agree.Not only Cao Zhiyan, but to let others understand that this task is not easy.

After thinking for a long time, Wang Xiaohun said to Cao Zhiyan: "Today you only need to understand that the people are dissatisfied with the government, and they can say it. Whether there is any truth, the people will judge. Or, at this time, it is not the people who judge, but It is the people. What is the people? This question is very difficult to answer. Or in the heart, you feel that you know it. But it is a big problem to speak out and get the approval of others.”

When Cao Zhiyan heard this, he couldn't help but be at a loss, not knowing what Wang Xiaochau's words meant.

Wang Xiaohun said: "This is the case, no need to say more. As time goes by, everyone will gradually understand why. Although time is quiet, it will answer many questions. Yesterday, the spies who probed Wang Jun came back. You Go and call others to come, and we will discuss how to pacify him."

Cao Zhiyan promised to go out of the room.He was still puzzled and didn't understand what Wang Xiaohun meant.

What are the people?Wang Xiaohun thought about it for a long time and felt that he could not answer now.If you can't answer at the moment, then leave it for later.This question is simple to say, and has been clearly explained since elementary school, but when I really think about it, it is not entirely true.

People is not a new word, it has existed since ancient times. In Mencius, there are three treasures of princes: land, people, and political affairs.This has been a common vocabulary since the pre-Qin period.However, after the founding of New China, the word took on political connotations.In a political context, who are the people?Said to be ordinary people, corresponding to the privileged class.In other words, the people are ordinary laborers, different from the exploiting classes.There is some truth to it.However, if you really study it carefully, you can't really guarantee the complete meaning of the people.

The workers are the people, the peasants are the people, so are the officials the people?Are the landlords the people?Are factory owners the people?Are the bourgeoisie the people?Are intellectuals the people?Different understandings, once rising to a social level, will cause political turmoil.

This question can only be explained clearly from the height of the foundation of the country, and it cannot be strictly defined.Once strictly defined, some errors are bound to be included.To solve this kind of error, it is possible to make a political error.

How can such a question be clarified at once?Wang Xiaohun stood up and paced back and forth a few steps.Many things, we think we want to understand, but can not withstand careful scrutiny, it is also very interesting to say.

Not long after, Shao Ling, Xie Linong, Cao Zhiyan, Yu Huan and Niu Gao came in and sang the promise together.

After a few people were seated, Wang Xiaohun said, "The spy came back yesterday and told about the situation of Wang Jun's department. Let's discuss how to solve it."

Xie Linong said: "Zhizhou, before talking about this, the next official mentions one thing."

Wang Xiaohun said: "If you have anything, just say it."

Xie Linong said: "Outside the yamen, a notice was posted detailing the whole story of the complainant Fang Mengchen's family. But Fang Mengchen's servant, ignorant of the state's good intentions, was talking nonsense next to the notice. Many people were ignorant and encouraged by him. Can you bear it? Yixiaguan wants to come, knowing that the state is benevolent to the people, and will not kill him. Then send two people to take him home and let his father strictly guard him!"

Wang Xiaohun waved his hand: "Cao Zhiyan has already mentioned it just now, so there is no need to mention it again, let Fang Mengchen be there. If he commits a crime, he will order someone to take it immediately, and he will be severely punished. So let him go. Ben will not be punished for his words. This is the end of this matter, and there is no need to mention it again!"

Xie Linong sings promise.However, looking at his expression, he was obviously dissatisfied.
