Chapter 1278: Potential

Xie Qian sat upright with his legs raised, looked at Wang Hua, and then said, "So, Ye Chunqiu did see the root cause of the disease. He wanted to treat it, so he proposed the prescription. I don't know whether this prescription is useful now, but if I don't try it, how can I know whether it will be successful? Have you just been sitting here and waiting for death? Now that I am a serious illness, if I don't treat it, I will die. Although there may be some risks, it is better than Wei Ji's jealousy."

Wang Hua couldn't help but nod. He heard about the situation in Zhejiang, and then smiled bitterly: "Yes, even the governor of Zhejiang, let alone other places? If there is a natural disaster in the future, a great disaster will come. If the refugees are solved, the memorials in Chunqiu may not be a solution. But when it comes to Han people, I also feel that it is a bit unreliable. Ye Chunqiu is my husband's son-in-law. I was just thinking that it is because I trust her that I am willing to entrust the pearl in my hand to him. He used to be my husband's disciple, and it is because I know his character that I..."

He said this, raised his teacup and sipped the tea, then smiled a little, and finally said, "So I believe in him, it's just... Mr. Li."

Hearing Wang Hua's last words, Xie Qian couldn't help frowning slightly, and was silent for a moment before saying, "Finally, I have had twenty years of friendship with Mr. Li. According to common sense, it shouldn't be refuted to his face. But since we have seen the disadvantages of the Ming Dynasty and now we have a possible feasible method, why should we ignore it? If you don't insist on doing something you have determined, you will inevitably regret it for life. Private relationships are private relationships, and justice is justice. Let's wait and see first."

"Cough cough..." At this time, two more coughs came from outside.

This voice did not make Wang Hua and Xie Qian feel unfamiliar, so Wang Hua and Xie Qian both stopped talking in the public room.

Then, Yang Tinghe walked in and said, "Mr. Xie is here, ah, prince, you are polite."

Wang Hua smiled and said, "Menny, come and sit down."

Yang Tinghe also sat down with a smile and said, "I am very ashamed. I passed by accidentally just now, but I couldn't help but hear some gossip. Please don't blame me."

Wang Hua shook his head and said, "Where?"

Yang Tinghe said: "Does the second official support refugees to get out of seclusion?"

Wang Hua and Xie Qian looked at each other. They really didn't expect that Yang Tinghe would ask them this question so directly.

Yang Tinghe said: "In fact, even if you support me, this matter will be difficult to implement. After all, this is Your Majesty's intention. Can Mr. Li still sing a rebellion with His Majesty? The reason why Mr. Li wanted to suppress this matter was not just because he did not like this memorial, but because this is the general trend of the world. The so-called "Those who follow the trend will prosper, and those who go against the trend will perish. I dare to ask the second master, if a large number of refugees come out of seclusion, who will be the biggest harm?"

Wang Hua and Xie Qian were both speechless, both thinking that Yang Tinghe was too abrupt.

Yang Tinghe smiled and then said, "The most victimized were the gentry. The gentry was in the place, and the more people there were no land, the more land there were, so they could raise the rent and greatly increase the rent. Because there were more people and fewer people, but once a large number of idle people left the customs, then for many people, they had one more choice. If the rent was too high, they would go out of the customs and go to work in the town government, you see, for the gentry, can the rent be raised? There are tens of millions of gentry in the world, and it doesn't matter if one hundred or one thousand people offends, and it doesn't matter if one is a hundred or one thousand. It doesn't matter if life is harder, but what if everyone suffers from it?"

"Mr. Li is kind-hearted, and he really doesn't want the ups and downs in the court. The gentry is surrounded by countless officials, and the officials are cabinets. This is a vast trend and the people's hearts. Therefore, this matter can only be suppressed and opposed, and it is determined not to be done. Now it is no longer the Hongwu period. Even if Your Majesty is determined to promote it, can you continue to push it?"

"This is some of Yang's supreme views. The second duke protects the Duke of Zhenguo in his heart. This is understandable, but I don't agree. I dare to speak here today. He can't do this."

After Yang Tinghe said that, he stood up, bowed a long time, and said, "Duke Zhenguo and I have a good time. He acted erraticly and did not follow the right path. As a senior, he should always be alert. How can he ask for it?"

Yang Tinghe said, shook his head with a smile.

Usually, Yang Ting and this person are quite kind, but today's tone is a little unpolite, which makes Xie Qian and Wang Hua unhappy.

Yang Tinghe didn't care, because he knew Li Dongyang's thoughts very well, and he was quite complaining about Xie Qian and Wang Hua. When he entered the cabinet, he was disastrous. Although Liu Jin and others were in charge, Xie Qian was afraid that he would have done a lot of effort in his heart, but Wang Hua intercepted him. Whenever he thought of this, he would be upset about it.

Of course, Xie Qian and Wang Hua did not dare to provoke him. Although he was angry today, he did not dare to make things serious. He just pointed indirectly and told Wang Hua and Xie Qian that your Duke of the State is a kid who is in a wrong way, and you are indulging him.

But for the Grand Secretary of the Cabinet, even if it is just undecent, it seems a little unpolite.

Xie Qian has always been the most eloquent, but now after hearing his words, he couldn't help but feel angry and said irritated: "There is nothing difficult in the world, I'm afraid of those who are interested."

Yang Tinghe still smiled and said, "Thank you for your advice, but I think this person has always been with the flow and has never heard of him who can go against the trend. The people's hearts are the trend."

Wang Hua's heart sank to the bottom. In fact, he knew that what Yang Tinghe said was not wrong. The people's hearts are the power. Of course, the people's hearts here have nothing to do with the people. This is like an umbrella for the people. Local officials usually act like winning the people's hearts. But ordinary people, how can they be qualified to give the people's umbrella? In essence, this people refer to gentry. Only their likes and dislikes and ideas are what people in the temple need to pay attention to. As for those rural villagers who don't know big words, they can't even write their own names. Can you still expect them to know what is good and what is bad?

Therefore, they are often called "fooling the people", which is not a belittlement. To some extent, a group of people who have never walked out of their own radius of ten miles in their lives and have only thought about how to fill their stomachs for the rest of their lives, and they do not have the capital to be educated. (To be continued.)
