Chapter 35: Induction
"Hey, you said that you only have resentment but not hatred for Zhang Juzheng. This is worse than directly calling Zhang Juzheng for usurping the monarchy. No wonder in another time and space, after Zhang Juzheng's death, you want to launch various liquidations against him!" The little fat man heard
Wang Bing couldn't help complaining about the truth coming from the bottom of his heart.
"Haha, as long as you are willing, are you afraid that there is nothing you can do?" Seeing the frustrated look on the little fat man's face, Wang Bing couldn't help but smile, pretending to be a mountain man with a clever plan of his own.
"Oh, so Third Brother, you have something to do?"
Sure enough, the emperor is the emperor. As soon as he heard that he had a chance to take back his real power, the little fat man immediately became energetic.
"Everyone comes up with solutions, but before that, I have a few questions to ask Brother Zhu!" Seeing the excited look on the little fat man's face, Wang Bing changed his previous playful smile and looked serious.
looked at the little fat man.
"Third brother, just ask whatever you want to ask. I will definitely tell you everything you know!" Seeing Wang Bing's sudden seriousness, the little fat man couldn't help but become serious.
"First, what I want to ask Brother Zhu is, do you think Mr. Zhang is a powerful minister or a treacherous minister?" After saying that, Wang Bing stared at the little fat man with a little nervousness.
There is no way, the little fat man's impression of Zhang Juzheng is very important now. If the little fat man is already extremely resentful of Zhang Juzheng, then there is no need to say anything else.
"Well, well, although the power of Mr. Sir is indeed greater, it is all for the purpose of implementing the New Deal. It seems a bit too much to call him a powerful minister, right? As for a treacherous minister, it is even more nonsense if Mr. Sir is dedicated to serving the country.
Let’s talk!”
After thinking for a while, the little fat man opened his mouth to defend Zhang Juzheng. It seemed that the rift between the little fat man and Zhang Juzheng at this time was still relatively small, and it was not as irreparable as it would be later.
"Second question, do you think Mr. Zhang's New Deal reform is right or wrong? Or is it necessary?" After getting the answer to the little fat man's first question, Wang Bing asked the second question.
"It goes without saying, of course it is necessary. In the past few years, the imperial court was so poor that it could hardly pay out the officials' salaries, so they could only use sumac and pepper instead. If there is no reform, how many years can the imperial court last?"
For once, the little fat man didn't hesitate at all.
Obviously, the emperor, Little Fatty, still holds a very positive attitude towards the necessity of Zhang Juzheng's New Deal reforms.
"Okay, the last question, if you personally do the new policy reforms that Mr. Zhang is implementing, do you think you can do it better than Mr. Zhang!" After asking this last question, Wang Bing asked again.
He regained his previous tired appearance.
"Well, although I also want to say that I can do it better than Mr., the fact is that in the entire Ming Dynasty, there is probably no one who can do these things better than Mr., including me...me included!"
After hearing Wang Bing's last question, the little fat man couldn't help but smile with a self-deprecating look on his face.
"Look, don't you already have the prerequisite to be a 'saint king'? You know, just being able to know people well and make good use of them, and employ them without doubt, is already more than the vast majority of emperors!"
Seeing that the little fat man was quite self-aware, Wang Bing flattered him a little.
"Third brother, you...are you telling the truth?" After being slapped by Wang Bing's flattery, which was almost truthful, the little fat man suddenly asked with excitement and trembling.
There was nothing I could do about it. Apart from the compliments from the eunuchs in the palace, this was the first time that the little fat man heard someone praise him so formally.
"Hey, do I need to flatter you?" Although it was indeed a small flattery to the little fat man, Wang Bing would only admit that it was a kind of encouragement to young people.
"Whether it's flattery or not, when these words come out of your mouth, third child, I will take them seriously, hahahaha!"
"Uh, that's not right, Third Brother, didn't you just say that you wanted to help me? Now that you say that, what else can I do?" After a moment, out of the emperor's instinctive desire for power, the little fat man said
I quickly woke up from this little flattery.
"What you have to do now is to check and fill in the gaps for Mr. Zhang, for example, find out the shortcomings in Zhang's new policy, and then come up with your own solutions to discuss with Mr. Zhang. In this way, Mr. Zhang will only treat you
Treat him like a child?" Seeing that the little fat man still didn't grasp the core of the problem, Wang Bing had no choice but to make it clear.
"That makes sense. Why didn't I think of that before? But I can't seem to find anything wrong with Mr. New Deal's reforms?" The little fat man was happy at first, but then he became frustrated again.
"Brother Zhu, how can there be a policy system without loopholes in this world? If it really is, why bother to reform it?" Seeing the frustrated look on the little fat man's face, Wang Bing couldn't help but sigh speechlessly.
"Third brother, so you have discovered something wrong with Mr. Wang Bing's new policy?" Seeing what Wang Bing said, the little fat man's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Judging from the fact that Mr. Zhang first rectified the officialdom and is now preparing to clear out the land and land all over the country, Mr. Zhang may be preparing to implement the 'one whip' law across the country, right?" Instead of answering the little fat man's question, Wang Bing spoke to the little fat man.
He asked.
"Well, you are right, Third Brother. Sir, you do intend to implement the 'One Whip' method nationwide." Although the implementation of the "One Whip" law has not been announced nationwide, the little fat man, as the emperor of a country, this
The inside information is quite clear.
"Then do you think this 'one whip' method is really perfect?" After getting the affirmative answer from the little fat man, Wang Bing asked again.
"Well, at least so far, I...I don't see anything wrong with it." The little fat man thought for a while before answering.
"Actually, I'm not saying there's anything wrong with the 'one whip' method. I just think you can go a step further based on this one whip method and make it more perfect. In this way, Zhang Daneng can know
Your ability has also made him clearly understand your emperor's support for the New Deal. And to be able to get the full support of an emperor who shares the same aspirations, do you think this means something to a minister?"
In order to avoid letting the little fat man and Zhang Juzheng go down the same old path of history, Wang Bing could only use this method to induce the little fat man to actively integrate into this new policy reform.
As a member of the time-traveling army, now that he has this opportunity, Wang Bing is naturally unwilling to give up this opportunity to use his foresight to try to change history. Therefore, taking advantage of this convenience, he stuffed some "private goods" into history.
