It seems that this approach of the Mohists is worth promoting!Zhu Yuanzhang thought in his heart.

In the current Ming Dynasty, because of the oppression of the feudal aristocracy, the aristocrats and officials protected each other, resulting in the low level of trust in the government by the people.If a man becomes the magistrate, people will subconsciously think that he will continue to bully the people just like the previous magistrate, and there will be no trust in the first place.

When a woman becomes the head of the household, people's eyes will brighten and they will see hope: maybe a woman's head of the household will be different from before.

Coupled with the leading role of Fu Xiao in governing Jiangzhou...

In other words, letting a woman be the magistrate is the best way to break the situation.

Break the people's long-term disappointment with the government.

……

"By the way, this uncle who likes to drink." Erhu asked for Zhu Yuanzhang, "Did the dignitaries of the Mohist family bully you? I don't believe that the people of Jiangzhou are so stable and united."

"No matter how you look at it, it looks like a fake."

"Where are there any high-ranking officials in Jiangzhou now?" The old man laughed after hearing this, and then said to the two, "I'm afraid you don't know yet, all the high-ranking officials and nobles in Jiangzhou have been...clicked by Emperor Zhu."

"Thinking of the scene at the top of Jiangzhou City that day, I still have lingering fears, old man."

"Why do you have lingering fear?" Erhu asked.This is knowingly asking, when he was beheading at the beginning, he was the deputy supervisor and beheading officer, and he saw the beheading situation clearly from a high position.

"Rows of people were beheaded. After killing one batch, another batch was replaced. The heads rolled to the ground, and the blood in Jiangzhou flowed into rivers." The old man said, "Now the children in Jiangzhou, after hearing the name of Emperor Zhu, don't even think about it." Dare to cry."

"Emperor Zhu, it's like the reincarnation of the God of Killing."

"Our Majesty is not the reincarnation of the Killing God!" As soon as the words were finished, someone stood up and corrected him, "Your Majesty is an angry-eyed King Kong, because he beheads all bad people, demons and demons."

"That's right! It was His Majesty's merciless killing that changed Jiangzhou's world. Emperor Zhu used his glaring diamond-like methods to exchange for Jiangzhou's peace and happiness..." said the old man,

"We will tell our children in the future that Emperor Zhu killed all bad people..."

"Even if the former dignitaries were killed by Emperor Zhu, wouldn't there be new ones?" Zhu Yuanzhang interrupted him and asked, "What the people fear most is that a group of oppressors will be wiped out and replaced by new ones." of a batch."

"Change the soup but not the medicine, treat the symptoms but not the root cause."

"The Mo family is the current manager of Jiangzhou." Er Hu said, "The former manager who oppressed the people has fallen, and the new manager will not become a new high-ranking official, superior to the common people?"

"If it's really a situation where new wine is put in a wine bottle, and the symptoms are not cured, then the Mohism's governance of Jiangzhou is meaningless," Zhu Yuanzhang said. "The manager has power in his hands, and there will inevitably be many people to curry favor..."

"And as long as there is flattery and envy, there will be new highs and lows."

"No one is currying favor with powerful Mohist disciples," said the old man.

"Why?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked.

"Although the Mohist basically has no disciples who dare to cheat, the Mohist still has an extremely severe punishment system. Once there are Mohist disciples who dare to cheat for personal gain, and those who are greedy for a tael of silver, they will be expelled from the Mohist first, and then handed over to the government for disposal. "The old man said, "That is to say, Mohist disciples who break the law will be punished twice."

"I have seen the punishment of the Mo family before." A person next to him said, "It's whipping. The Mo family is good at organ skills, and if you whip it down, it will be called a bruise."

"How do you know?" someone asked.

"After the Mo family took over the management of Jiangzhou, they are also recruiting talents. Although the recruitment conditions are extremely strict, there are." The humane just said, "My distant relative and nephew were able to join the Mo family because of their outstanding talents."

"He told me that the Mohist family used whipping, which was extremely severe. Then he solemnly told all relatives and friends not to ask him to go through the back door, so as not to harm others and themselves. The room of the Mohist disciples is open to the common people. It is clear at a glance that there is no valuable thing, which is more ruthless than property publicity.”

"That's right." The old man said, "The Mohists also stipulate that the bribe-givers and bribe-takers are equally guilty."

"Think about it, the Mo family is so kind to Jiangzhou. If we go to give them gifts, it means harming them and ourselves at the same time."

"Yes, yes." Zhu Yuanzhang nodded, "It turns out that the Mohists used an extremely severe punishment system."

In fact, Zhu Yuanzhang's harsh punishments were also extremely effective, but the power of the feudal aristocracy was too great, and the collusion between officials and gentry was too serious, which made his harsh punishments seem useless.

Strict law is actually the best way.

"Besides, all the Mohist disciples live in poverty. Their food is worse than that of ordinary people, and their salary is even lower. They also work hard, and they are all as tired as dogs." The old man continued.

"So, the people in Jiangzhou only respect Mohist disciples, not envy."

"I don't even feel that talking is superior."

"Sometimes, I even feel that the Mohist rules are somewhat unfair to those Mohist disciples."

"Unfairness is a good phenomenon." Zhu Yuanzhang said, "The Mohists seem to have achieved it, allowing those in power to bear the same pressure as lions and tigers in nature."

"They are already under pressure, and the pressure is still very high." One person said, "A Mohist disciple who has become a family works hard because of low salary, and his wife is still doing small labor in the textile workshop to subsidize the family."

"This is really in line with 'ruling the country with morality'!" Zhu Yuanzhang said.

"Those in power already have sharp claws and sharp teeth. If you give them more convenience, who can restrict them? Only by giving them various strict restrictions can their sharp claws and sharp teeth be restrained."

"If the Mohist disciples have too much power, the treatment will make the common people envious, and a new 'high and low' will be formed. The Mohist disciples are very noble and the common people are very low..."

"That's what I said, but Mohist disciples serve the common people, but they live a hard life and don't get much rewards. Is it unfair to them?" said the old man.

"For example, the disciple of the Mo family whose wife is working outside, he is suffering too much. He is busy all day long, and his wife also has to do small jobs. Is his hard work not worth it?"

"If he feels bitter and doesn't want to be in power, he can give up his position to others." Zhu Yuanzhang said flatly. "However, I believe that the Mo family is absolutely unwilling to give up."

"So, don't feel sorry for them."

"Sheep without the strength to restrain chickens, to sympathize with tigers and wolves with sharp claws and fangs, is something wrong with their brains."

"Besides, the reason why the Mohists work so hard to serve the common people despite their poor living conditions and low salaries is definitely not because they are all saints." Erhu said, "They did this for the rise of the Mohists. .”
