Chapter 768: Accepting The Supervision Of The People In Disguise, The Double-Edged Sword Of Reportin
On the second high platform, Yan Changqing looked at the scene where Zhu Yuanzhang's words caused hundreds of thousands of Yingtian Mansion people to shout enthusiastically, and then looked sideways at the three little guys Zhu Xiongying, Zhu Jixi, and Zhu Gaochi beside him. Wen said:
“Do you know what this means?!!”
Zhu Xiongying replied thoughtfully:
"People's hearts! Public opinions!"
Yan Changqing nodded and affirmed:
"That's right! This is the people's will, this is the public opinion!"
"Now your Majesty is what the people want and what they want!"
"With just a word from Your Majesty, the hundreds of thousands of people in Yingtian Mansion in front of you can even risk their lives to go to Pingdao Mountain and the sea of fire for Your Majesty!"
"Under such circumstances, whoever wants to overthrow His Majesty's rule and overthrow the country of Ming Dynasty, then the hundreds of thousands of people in Yingtian Mansion in front of them will be the first to disagree!"
"If there were 60 million people in the Ming Dynasty, they would all love Your Majesty and support the Ming Dynasty as much as the hundreds of thousands of people in Yingtian Mansion in front of you."
"Then even if someone has evil intentions, who can overthrow His Majesty and the Ming Dynasty, who are so loved and supported by the people?!!"
"Whether you are conquering the world or defending the world, there is always only one sentence at the core, and that is 'He who wins the hearts of the people wins the world'!!!"
"And how to win the hearts of the people is actually very simple, that is to make people live a better life!"
"And how to make the people live a better life is what needs to be done to govern the world."
"For example, His Majesty has implemented the policy of dividing the land from one person to one mu, which has overall reduced the taxes that the people need to pay, which has made the people's lives a little better than before."
"Another example is that His Majesty redesigned weights and measures, which reduced the chances of the common people being harmed by long and short rulers and big and small fights, thereby further ensuring that the interests of the common people were not harmed, which also made the common people live a little better than before."
"For another example, His Majesty adopted the new salt-drying method invented by Ban Heng and sent navy soldiers to salvage and catch marine fish, which greatly reduced the price of salt and salted fish meat, allowing the common people to afford affordable salt and salt. Salted fish meat, this makes the people’s lives a little better than before.”
"These policies that are beneficial to the people one by one can make the people's lives better and better if the implementation of the policy continues, allowing His Majesty to gain more and more support from the people. To this day, His Majesty's prestige has truly reached the people's wishes." To the point of dying for it!”
"Like now, even if His Majesty is walking casually on Yingtianfu Street without any guards, even if he encounters an assassin, all he needs to do is shout out, 'Someone wants to harm the Emperor!'"
"The hundreds of thousands of people in the entire Yingtian Mansion will be His Majesty's shield, protecting him from any harm; they will also be the sword in His Majesty's hand, eliminating all threats for him!"
"You must remember that the emperor's real power does not come from the so-called imperial power, nor does it come from the millions of troops under his control.
"It comes from the ordinary people in front of us who seem small but are as vast as the sea!"
"It is the people who supported the Ming Dynasty, supported the army of millions, and also supported the emperor's majestic imperial power!"
"If we lose the support of the people and the will of the people, then the emperor's majestic imperial power will collapse, millions of troops will disperse and flee, and the Ming Dynasty will cease to exist!"
“You must remember this, understand?!”
Zhu Xiongying, Zhu Jixi, and Zhu Gaochi all nodded solemnly, indicating that they remembered it.
Only Zhu Yunxi on the side looked confused and couldn't understand what Yan Changqing was talking about.
After supplementing Zhu Xiongying’s understanding, Yan Changqing asked again:
"Besides the public sentiment and public opinion, what else can be seen from this scene?!!"
Zhu Jixi vaguely felt that he had understood something, but like a flower in the water or the moon in the mirror, he still missed something core.
Seeing Zhu Xiongying, Zhu Jixi and Zhu Gaochi speechless for a moment, Yan Chang reminded:
"Think about the right to speak in public opinion that I told you before."
The five words "right to speak in public opinion" flashed through Zhu Jixi's mind like a bolt of lightning, dispersing all his confusion, and he immediately said excitedly:
"We not only want to do something for the people, but we also want to let the people know what we have done for them!!!"
"Just like Grandpa Huang and others, they implemented benevolent policies one by one in order to make the people live a better life."
"Although even if Grandpa Huang doesn't say it today, the people of Japan will gradually know the changes brought about by these administrations.
"However, if we wait for the people to gradually realize it in the future, the speed of gathering people's hearts will be too slow."
"Now that the emperor has said it directly in public, the people can then compare the words based on the words of the emperor and understand what efforts the emperor has made and what he has done to make their lives better. Which jobs.”
"In this way, the gratitude and love for Grandpa Huang in the hearts of the people will quickly rise to the top, and the speed of gathering people's hearts will be greatly accelerated!"
"In addition, there are three benefits."
"First, we can take this opportunity to eliminate the accumulated dissatisfaction with the imperial court in the hearts of the people."
"As big as the world is, there are always places that the emperor cannot take into account, and there are always places that the court cannot take into consideration. There will also be times when the people encounter injustice and are wronged, which will lead to dissatisfaction with the court."
"If dissatisfaction like this accumulates too much, the people will gradually stop loving Grandpa Huang and stop supporting the Ming Dynasty!"
"However, through publicity like Grandpa Huang's today, it is possible to make these people who have suffered injustice, injustice, and dissatisfaction know that Grandpa Huang has always cared about them, and that the Ming Dynasty has always put them aside. In my heart."
"This can eliminate the dissatisfaction in the hearts of these people and make them love Grandpa Huang again and support the Ming Dynasty!"
"Second, it can improve the people's trust in the court and the emperor [enhancing the credibility of Weizi and the court!"
"In this way, if there are people with ulterior motives who maliciously slander the emperor and the imperial court, the common people will not believe it easily!"
"Third, it can ensure that the emperor's achievements and the achievements of the imperial court will not be usurped by certain officials between the imperial court and the common people."
"As the teacher said before, there will be some officials who deliberately cut off the benefits that the emperor actively provides to the people and the benevolent policies that the court actively implements, and say that they are asking for orders for the people, specifically asking the emperor and the court for the sake of the people. Tell us about the benefits of Bo Lai and benevolent government."
"Use the benefits of the emperor, the court, and benevolent government to win over the people's hearts and minds and achieve your own good reputation!"
"But it is clearly stated directly to the people like now that it is the emperor and the court who take the initiative to implement such benevolent policies in order to make the people live a better life [Chongkang and Song Dynasties implemented such policies."
"In this way, the people's main object of gratitude is the emperor and the court, followed by specific officials; it ensures that the people's good impression of the emperor and the court will not be transferred to some officials with bad intentions."
Yan Changqing nodded and said in approval:
"Yes, ordinary people can do good deeds without leaving a name or making a name for themselves, because they should never forget to repay kindness."
"But the emperor and the court that represents the emperor cannot do that, because if you don't occupy the position, others will occupy it."
"How could Confucian officials and scholars in the past use "The Theory of Influence between Heaven and Man" to force the emperor to surrender, and even issue edicts to sin against himself?!!"
“Didn’t any emperors in the past realize the falsehood and irrationality of the Theory of Influence between Heaven and Man?!!”
"Of course not, but even if an emperor realizes the falsehood and irrationality of the "Theory of Influence between Heaven and Man", it will be difficult to overturn the "Theory of Influence between Heaven and Man"!
"The reason lies in the power of public opinion controlled by Confucian officials and scholars behind "The Theory of Influence between Heaven and Man"!"
"And what is behind the voice of Confucian civil servants and scholars?!!"
"It is the public sentiment and public opinion of the tens of millions of people at the bottom!!!"
"Confucian civil servants distorted and hijacked the public sentiment and public opinion of tens of millions of people at the bottom, forcing the emperor to submit and bow his head!"
"If they don't bow their heads, they will distort the will of God, misinterpret the king's heart, and then make noise and incite ignorant people to cause trouble!"
"In the end, by using the possibility of thousands of ordinary people below to cause trouble and shake the country and the country as a bargaining chip, the emperor was forced to surrender and bow his head for the sake of the stability of the world and the stability of the people!"
"So as long as the power of public opinion controlled by the Confucian scholars is still there, even if the "Theory of Influence between Heaven and Man" is overturned, the Confucian scholars can support another theory at any time and continue to borrow the theory openly and covertly. Public opinion forced the emperor to listen to their 'advice' 11.
"And how come Confucian officials and scholars can firmly control the right to speak in public opinion, and why does the emperor lose the right to speak in public opinion?!"
"The reason is actually very simple. The emperor is too far away from the common people, too arrogant, and too down-to-earth!"
"The channel of communication between the emperor and the ordinary people at the bottom was lost. The emperor handed over all orders to the middle and lower class Confucian officials and scholars to convey and explain to the people."
"In this way, it is naturally equivalent to the emperor handing over the right to speak public opinion to the common people to Confucian officials and scholars!"
"."Now, His Majesty has re-established a relationship between the Emperor and the ordinary people at the bottom through this method of directly publicly telling the people about the various policies of the imperial court and the results achieved by the emperor and the imperial court in governing the world in the past few years. communication channel!”
"Let ordinary people not only learn about the emperor's wishes from the original Confucian scholars, but also directly learn about the emperor's wishes from the emperor.
"In this way, even if the Confucian civil servants and scholars once again try to distort the emperor's intention and misinterpret the king's heart, they will then incite the ignorant people to cause trouble."
"The emperor can also directly use this communication channel with the common people at the bottom to bring order to the chaos and guide the public opinion that was originally distorted by Confucian officials and scholars back again!"
"This will regain part of the power of public opinion that the emperor had given up to a group of Confucian civil servants."
"So, if you become the emperor in the future, then your Majesty will openly tell the people of the Ming Dynasty the various policies of the imperial court and the results achieved by the emperor and the imperial court in governing the world in the past few years, just like you did today.
"You must do it often, preferably once a year!"
"For example, at the end of each year, we find a time to talk to the people in public about what the emperor and the court did last year and what they plan to continue doing in the coming year."
"In this way, the emperor, and the court that represents the emperor, can firmly occupy part of the right to speak in public opinion, instead of giving up all the right to speak in public opinion to Confucian officials and scholars again!"
"This is also the fastest and most conducive way for you to win over the people and stabilize them. Remember this?!"
Zhu Xiongying, Zhu Jixi, and Zhu Gaochi all nodded, indicating that they had remembered it.
As for Zhu Yunxi, he still looked confused.
See Zhu Xiongying, Zhu Jixi, Zhu Gaochi
The three of them nodded, and Yan Changqing also nodded slightly.
What he didn't say just now was that he would publicly tell the people about the various policies of the imperial court on a regular basis and in public, as well as the relationship between the emperor and the imperial court in governing the world in the past few years.
The method of achieving results can indeed win over and stabilize public opinion as quickly as possible.
And from the Confucian civil servants and scholars, they regained part of the right to speak in public opinion.
However, this method actually puts the emperor and the court in front of the people, and allows the emperor and the court to accept the supervision of the people in disguise!
If the emperor and the court can implement the various policies they say will benefit the people, then the people will naturally love the emperor and support the court more and more!
However, if the emperor and the imperial court do not implement the various policies to benefit the people they say, they are just paying lip service.
Then the common people will know the ugly face of the emperor and the court in the shortest time, and at the same time, their love for the emperor and support for the court will dissipate as quickly as possible.
Tongue off!
It can be said that this is a double-edged sword!
If the emperor and the court sincerely do good for the people, do things for the people, and want the people to live a better life, then they will naturally not be hurt by this double-edged sword.
However, if the emperor and the court do not sincerely do good for the people, do things for the people, and do not really want the people to live a better life.
Yan Changqing doesn't care whether the emperor and the court will be hurt by this double-edged sword. In fact, Yan Changqing doesn't want to be stabbed to death by this double-edged sword. He doesn't do practical things and doesn't let the common people.
The emperor with the better surname and the harmonious court!
