Dominate Marvel

Since returning to Kaifeng, Ying Yi has rarely been leisurely. At the beginning of a new regime, as the leader, you must always watch and grasp the direction unless necessary.

This is a critical time to establish the core composition of the new regime - Ying Yi had previously left government affairs to Zheng Yunzhi and left for Crescent Valley because the matters involved in Crescent Valley were more important.

The Yuan Qi plan is the foundation of the country, so this is the priority.

After solving all the issues in Crescent Valley, it was the perfect prelude to the implementation of Yuan Qi's plan. When Ying Yi returned to Kaifeng, naturally he could no longer sit idle.

Henan is in ruins, and many military and political affairs involved, as well as the general direction of their development, must be personally controlled by Ying Yi. Although there are humane restrictions, Ying Yi cannot relax.

If there are no rules, there will be no circle. Ying Yi’s first priority is legislation. During this time, he spent most of his time in the Legislative Department, reading documents from past dynasties with many officials, taking the essence and discarding the dross, discussing and condensing them, and forming a legal system unique to Ying Yi's rule.

It is said that Zhu Xia is a human society, but they do not know that Confucianism and Dharma are the foundation. Since the three ancient times and thousands of years, the ancestors of Zhuxia have been moving in this direction from establishing moral norms to establishing laws. In the feudal era, virtue was the symbol, so people often thought that human kindness was the most important thing. But actually the law is everywhere.

The dynasty that valued the most law was the first unified empire, Qin. Qin's laws penetrated into almost every aspect of society, and even people's daily words and deeds were bound by the law. It is precisely because Qin's laws are too strict that it is called Tyrannical Qin.

Qin's laws are harsh and unacceptable to people. A few hundred years from now, there will probably be no freedom, no freedom in words or deeds. Therefore, since the Qin Dynasty, the ideological core of law has gradually been integrated into Confucian ethics and etiquette norms to achieve moderation and impartiality.

The main focus is on education, which means that people should take the initiative to comply without having to punish them with strict laws. That is to say, prevention is the priority.

It generally means that people's morality has reached a certain level and they will not break the law. If everyone loves each other, everyone knows etiquette, and knows good and evil, then the Dharma can be hidden.

This is also the ultimate goal of Confucian education.

Use virtues and etiquette to complete the casting of a certain ideal society in people's words and deeds, without having to enforce it with strict laws.

This starts from the fundamental level of the human heart. In essence, it is naturally a higher level than the forced restraint of the law. The sages believed that gradual enlightenment and countless years of subtle influence could eventually be achieved.

However, in Ying Yi's view, this requires a prerequisite-that is, continuous education. However, the change of dynasties is the main culprit that interrupts the education process. In other words, a major premise is needed, the Eternal Dynasty, to achieve such an achievement.

It is a pity that all dynasties have been unable to achieve this premise.

Moreover, this kind of ideal society is too idealistic, and it is ultimately difficult to satisfy people's desires. Everything has two sides, and it is impossible to only take the positive side.

The existence of law is necessary.

Yuan Qi's plan is the foundation of a country, so it needs a foundation for governing the country to unify thoughts and restrict behavior. Law is an important component of the foundation of governing a country.

After reading many documents from past dynasties and combining them with historical books, Ying Yi gradually came up with some mature ideas.

Later generations often criticized Confucianism, but in fact these were the actions of amateurs. Confucianism serves politics and educates the people, starting from the human heart, seeking to solve evil, promote good, eliminate animal nature, and promote human nature.

But in the process of the development of this idea, it must meet the needs of politics, and its evolution is inseparable from the requirements of those in power.

Therefore, in the original history, the Tartars took over twice, and Confucianism was completely castrated and its backbone was ripped out.

What Ying Yi needs is something that suits his wishes. He has not made any achievements in this area, but he knows what he wants. He will not be like the time traveler in the novel who goes to ancient times to transform Confucianism. He is not qualified. If you don’t understand it yourself, why should you reform it? Just copy it mechanically? Will you bring the same things you don’t understand hundreds of years later to this era?

How stupid?

He only needs to take the ones he likes and reject the ones he doesn't like, that's all.

And based on this, we compile our own legal network around this ideological core.

As for morals and etiquette, he didn't have to worry about them at all. It has been passed down among the people for thousands of years.

On this day, Ying Yi was practicing boxing at home - it was probably a hobby, but it also had a purpose. Ying Yi didn't know much about boxing and kicking before, and he had only watched Zheng Wu and others practice boxing earlier. His power is based on the strength of his body and soul.

But now Ying Yi plans to work hard in this area, not for himself, but for the future. He planned to use the great character in the dark and establish a plan based on his existing fighting skills with fists and kicks.

During the leisure time when the Legislative Department was discussing the compilation of laws, Ying Yi was preparing for this. To this end, he collected a lot of killing techniques and martial arts as the basis for forming the plan.

When Zheng Yunzhi excitedly saw Ying Yi, Ying Yi was practicing and thinking.

"What a great harvest! What a great harvest!"

Ying Yi was awakened and looked up to see it was Zheng Yunzhi. He stopped and couldn't help but laugh: "What's the big harvest?"

"Nanyang!"

Zheng Yunzhi took a breath and said with a red face: "The three counties of Nanyang have a great harvest!"

Ying Yi understood immediately and did not show any surprise.

From July to September, after the improved seeds were distributed and planted after the transformation of the Diji Yi, it was almost the time of harvest. A good harvest is inevitable. When improving seeds, Ying Yi already knew it.

"How's the yield?"

Ying Yi picked up the cotton towel and wiped his hands.

Zheng Yunzhi saw that Ying Yi was not surprised, and the excitement in his heart calmed down a little, and said: "The report just handed over by the Agriculture Department shows that the first batch of 10,000 acres of land in Yuzhou has been harvested. A total of 120,000 shi of fine wheat has been harvested! More than 10 million A catty! The average yield per mu is twelve shi, which is far more than a thousand catties!"

Without waiting for Ying Yi to speak, he continued: "According to this standard, a total of 600,000 acres of land will be reclaimed in the three counties of Nanyang, and more than 7 million dan of fine grain can be obtained. The output of just three counties can easily satisfy the entire Millions of people in Henan need what they need in March!”

He continued: "In two to three months, when spring begins, if the hundreds of millions of acres of land in Henan have the same good harvest, the amount of food harvested will be... simply..."

The more he spoke, the more excited he became, and he was almost speechless.

Ying Yi quickly said: "Don't be too excited, my father-in-law. Isn't this obvious? I have already said that the yield of improved seeds is very high, and I have not disappointed my father-in-law, right?"

Zheng Yunzhi was excited for a long time, and sighed and said: "This is the destiny of destiny. This land Jiyi can guarantee that no matter there are famines, droughts or floods, the people will not be hungry or cold. This achievement lasted for three generations and is unparalleled in the Han and Tang Dynasties. That’s it!”
