Han: The witchcraft disaster begins, I fight against Emperor Wu of Han

Chapter 111 Your Majesty is draining the pond to catch all the fish!

A tree that stands tall and majestic like a canopy!

Old wood, new wood!
At this moment, all the ministers had similar thoughts in their minds, but for some reason, they just felt cold sweat flowing all over their bodies, making their souls tremble!
Are you talking only about the pillars?
Still has a hidden meaning!
You know, given Liu Jing's previous bold remarks and his status as the "grandson of the emperor".

Who does the tall and majestic tree refer to?

Who are the new pillars?
It can be said that he is a minister who has grown up.

But going further, isn’t it the same? Isn’t it the same?

As soon as that thought came to mind, all the ministers raised their heads and glanced back and forth between His Majesty and Grandson Jing, only to feel the horror in their hearts reappear.

I originally thought that with the brief end of the "Witchcraft Disaster", this kind of emotion would no longer exist. Now that Emperor Jing's grandson has escaped from the life-and-death danger, he would no longer make rash remarks.

What's more, Your Majesty has indeed changed since returning from Liangzhou.

I will not delve further into the previous alchemists!
The "Shen Ming Fa" has also been abolished.

Even during this period of time, he rarely got angry, and no longer had "nightmares" and used witchcraft as an excuse.

Everything has gradually calmed down.

The Han Dynasty may also have a chance to recuperate and enjoy peace in the government.

But... the words of Grandson Jing made all this seem like a delusion!

Even some officials have begun to worry...

To some extent, can these towering trees also represent ourselves?

It blocks out the sun and absorbs water, causing many new trees to fail to grow.

The beams can also be eaten by insects and need to be replaced!
For a moment, all the ministers were horrified, and Emperor Jing's grandson was attacking everyone!

"This is treasonous! This is treasonous!"

Some ministers who had remained silent all this time now opened their eyes wide and stared at Liu Jing.

Others immediately looked at His Majesty.

It seemed that he wanted to make a big deal out of this matter. "Who is Emperor Jing's grandson talking about? He said that we, the ministers, are the pillars that need to be replaced? But who are the real pillars of the Han Dynasty? Who needs to be replaced?"

Some people even said something shocking, "According to what Emperor Jing said, who is Xinmu? Is Emperor Jing the Xinmu?"

The last paragraph was vented out in a rage that was almost insane.

As soon as he said it, he felt scared and a little regretful.

really!

Liu Che had already looked at him, and the coldness in his eyes made him kneel down immediately...

But Liu Che just looked at him coldly.

Then he looked at it seriously.

He has... figured it out!

What Liu Jing said was not just referring to Li Guangli.

Even in his opinion, Li Guangli himself might not be worth taking such a big risk.

More importantly, there is a deeper meaning in his words.

When he heard it for the first time, he was almost shaken. The meaning of his words was even more shocking than the accusations he had made before!
But think about it carefully.

Isn't that what he wants to know most, the optimization of the mausoleum system, the curbing of powerful nobles, the method of selecting officials... and even the reason why he said that the answers will appear after this martial arts performance?

This is the difference between new wood and old wood!

Liu Jing wanted to make those disaster victims rich in Chang'an.

It's not just talk, but the future has become a reality with the emergence of tools on horses.

These things can create a group of "rich families" in Chang'an!
And they are rich people without roots.

They have no relatives, or even if they do have relatives, they are just “refugees”, poor and weak people who have lost their land.

Without land, we can only rely on these "saddles"!
Analogy to new wood!

Even in Liu Che's eyes, the water (land) has not yet been absorbed.

Of course, one day in the future, when their wealth grows more and more, sooner or later they will do the same as the powerful and start using money to buy "land".

New trees will also grow into towering giant trees and will appear again sooner or later.

What happens then?

Reincarnation is always and forever, reincarnation is always and forever!
"It's a novel idea, but... that's all there is to it."

Finally, Liu Che spoke, and unlike what everyone expected, he was not furious. Except for a slightly cold voice, his eyes were burning.

"General Ershi is likened to an old, towering tree, a rotten beam? But the dense forest has not yet grown a tree that can replace this beam!"

He seemed to be talking about General Ershi, but he also seemed to be referring to something else.

The ministers were already very surprised that he did not get angry.

At this moment, listening to these confusing words, everyone was confused.

"The fact that there is no replacement means that there is something wrong with the way the owner of this forest is looking after it!"

Liu Jing also answered in secret language.

At this moment, in the hall, only Huo Guang and Sang Hongyang, who had followed Liu Che at the beginning, seemed to have guessed what they were talking about.

More often than not, they just stop at "General Ershi himself"!
"Years of drought have caused the water to dry up. The only slightly larger trees in this forest are doing their best to make their branches and leaves lush and absorb sunlight. They have spread their roots deep into the ground, invading the territory of other trees and intercepting their vitality!"

"But the owner of the forest is very domineering. In order to make more money in a short period of time, he doesn't distinguish between new trees and old trees, growing trees and old trees that block out the sun..."

"Choose to drain the pond of fish and have people swing axes to chop down all these trees!"

"A giant tree has its own price, and even a newly grown twig has its own price..."

"The owner has cut down all the wood. The entire forest is almost bare. How can new trees grow?"

At this moment, Liu Jing changed his words again.

It’s still the same old saying about giant trees and new trees.

But if the giant trees are not removed, how can new trees grow? It has become a case of indiscriminate logging to drain the pond and catch all the fish!
The ministers around were becoming more and more confused, but if they connected the upper and lower levels, they would have vaguely guessed it, which was even more shocking!

And Liu Che did not get angry at all because of those words before.

But after saying this, he seemed furious.

He could tell that the words were meant to imply that he had been exhausting all resources over the years in order to make money, killing everyone regardless of age, strength or weakness!

To the extent that, looking at the government and the country, it seems dead.

Naturally, the pillars of the country cannot appear!

This statement seemed completely contradictory to him!
Is Liu Jing doing this on purpose?
however.

In Liu Jing's opinion...there is never any contradiction.

Because, nowadays, under the various harsh policies and plundering of cruel officials, the Han Dynasty, from the ministers to the common people, are all like those woods!

Even the prince almost died suddenly...

Which powerful person can be as powerful as the prince?

The huge tree that covers half of the pavilion takes away the vitality of the new trees next to it, and even if it doesn't affect it, it will eventually be cut down!
Even if the cruel officials he uses can be prominent for a while, they will eventually be defeated!

Even the alchemist he trusted before was like a dream bubble. The moment it shattered, it completely disappeared!

"With such tyranny and madness, and with no regard for anything, the forest owner's wealth will not increase wildly, but will kill the goose that lays the golden eggs! With such extravagance, it will sooner or later be ruined!"

now.

Liu Jing's voice was sonorous and powerful. He was not explaining the method but laying out the framework.

Tell me a reason!
"Therefore, before preventing the giant trees from blocking out the sun and usurping the vitality of other new trees."

"We have to do one thing first... to ensure that this forest exists!"

"Only then can we prune the branches, plan their spaces properly, and distribute the sunlight."

"Prune strong trunks and support young trees!"

"Your Majesty, you have seen..."

He pointed to the saddle on the warhorse and the horseshoes at its feet.

"Before, I promised to make these nearly 10,000 households the richest in Chang'an."

"It was never the robbery that Your Majesty thought it was, nor was it draining the pond to catch fish or killing the goose that lays the golden eggs!"

Liu Jing finally stopped hiding it.

But the moment the words appeared, the ministers were also extremely shocked.

Liu Che narrowed his eyes, and the anger in his eyes could no longer be concealed.

But Liu Jing turned a deaf ear to him, and only the last sentence rang out in his ears.

“It’s about creating something from scratch and adapting to local conditions!”
