Chapter 409: Li Yu's thoughts, the revolution of slaves (2)

Di Xin sat directly beside Li Yu and took out a roll of bamboo slips, which was written by God Xin a few days ago. Di Xin said to Li Yu: "Sir, this is what Xin has thought in the past few days, I wonder if it can be realized."
After hearing this, Li Yu glanced at Di Xin in surprise, and then took the bamboo slip in Di Xin's hand and slowly opened it. Li Yu looked more and more surprised. When Li Yu finished watching, he put the bamboo slips together and asked Di Xin: "This is what you think of."
Di Xin nodded, and then said, "Xin was in the autumn harvest half a month ago, originally to celebrate the harvest, so Xin deliberately listened to Shang Rong's opinions and went to the field to investigate." Di Xin then slowly Speak up.
When Di Xin saw that people were harvesting crops happily, he was very relieved, but beside the crops, there were many people in rags looking at the grain in the fields. Di Xin stepped forward and asked these people, "Why don't you wait to collect food?"
One of the old men said to Di Xin bitterly: "We are slaves. We are not deserved to enjoy the land. Even if we cultivate the land without permission, we will be taken back by the owner and beaten."
After hearing this, Di Xin was very shocked, not to be surprised, but to be angry, and more sad. Afterwards, Di Xin did not have the thought of watching the peasants harvest the crops, and wanted to return to the palace. On the way of Di Xin's meeting in the palace, he saw another scene.
It turned out that Di Xin passed by a team who was burying the dead, and among the troops, more than thirty slaves were with ropes and expressionlessly driven away. Di Xin asked Shang Rong, "The people in these crowds who are bound by ropes are the slaves who are going to be buried."
Shang Rong also sighed and said, "Yes, King."
Di Xin heard his words and frowned immediately. "How can there be so many?" Di Xin knew the funeral, and also knew that this custom is the case for the entire Shang and even the princes, but Di Xin did not expect to be buried like this Many people.
Shang Rong said at this time: "Well, King, look, this team looks like a wealthy family, not an official. If it's an official, there will be more. Poor children."
Di Xin was very upset and angry after hearing Shang Rong's words, so he ordered to accelerate his return to the palace. And Di Xin couldn't fall asleep whenever he thought of the scene he saw. Moreover, his father Wang, Emperor Yi's tomb was about to be repaired at this time, and how many slaves would die at that time, if they were to be planted Land, then what a wealth.
After speaking about what he saw and heard, Di Xin gave Li Yu his own opinion, and then asked Li Yu: "Sir, I don't know if this move will make all the princes turn against each other."
Li Yu heard Di Xin's tone of speech, and knew that Di Xin was going to abolish the slave system, and he must also abolish it, but he was afraid that it would cause the anger of the 800 princes. After all, slaves were both a labor force and a source of troops. And it involves a lot of taboos.
Li Yu said to Di Xin: "If you want to do this, it will be a very meritorious thing, but you can't rush it, otherwise it will be counterproductive. If you can, after the catastrophe, you can do it. It is just a change of dynasty. The best time, but you can also take the first step from your father ’s king's tomb, so that everyone in the world knows your kindness. "Then, Li Yu told Di Xin how difficult it would be to abolish slavery, which involved After the abolition of slavery, after all, the positions where slaves need to work will be paid, but this will also increase financial expenses in a large scale. Therefore, this matter cannot be changed overnight. After all, slaves have existed for so many years. Already.
And if Di Xin would change immediately, it would probably kill the great merchants. After all, slaves are involved in too many aspects and the interests of the vassals. It can be said that this is a sensitive topic.
Di Xin was taking notes when Li Yu was talking. When Li Yu finished speaking, Di Xin had three volumes of bamboo slips beside him. At the same time, Di Xin also felt that Li Yu was very reasonable. Ready to go back and take a look at the notes you wrote. Li Yu also told him that these notes could not be seen by anyone, even if they were seen, they could not be passed on.
For a whole day, until the sun went down, Di Xin returned to his palace with satisfaction, and when he went back, Di Xin's own notes had changed from the previous three volumes to more than 20 volumes. Because of writing this, Di Xin ’s fingers were paralyzed at this time, but Di Xin was very happy, and he was holding three volumes in his arms. It was the first introduction of the notes on slaves. Can't make it miss.
When Di Xin returned to the palace, he directly sent all these notes to the State Treasury and kept them under strict supervision. Among them, the three volumes of Di Xin's first notes were directly collected into his own internal library. .
Two days later, Di Xin held a large dynasty meeting. At this time, when Di Xin took the seat, the shouted: "There is a chapter to play, there is nothing to go."
At this time, an old minister came out, and when Emperor Xin saw it, he was the royal family. The comer reported to Emperor Xin Xin: "King Qi, after more than ten years of construction, all the above-ground buildings on the tomb of the first king have been completed. He also asked the king to choose a good day and let the first king enter the earth for peace."
Di Xin nodded after hearing Zong Zheng's words. When Di Yi was in office, the tomb was already constructed. After Di Yi died, Di Yi's tomb was about to enter the finishing stage, but it was just the finishing stage. It took ten years.
Di Xin said to Zong Zheng: "Zong Zheng, I don't know how the things used by the father have been prepared." What Di Xin said was the funeral.
Zong Zheng said: "The King Hui Hui is ready. Except for the funeral of the first king, the animal has not yet been determined."
Di Xin nodded, and then said, "Everything is done as usual, but a little change is needed. Since the burial people are not ready, they need not be prepared. Except for the necessary carriages and animals, the people are canceled."
After Di Xin's words, it can be said that a stone caused a thousand layers of waves. The Zongzheng knelt down in shock and said, "The King is not allowed. Human beings have existed since ancient times, and they are also status symbols. If human beasts are not, how can the king be peaceful, and if there is no one to wait for me in the Nether, I will become Eternal sinners! Please think twice! "
"Please think twice!" Then, the ministers of the Manchu dynasty all kneeled down and asked Di Xin to take back his life, which also included Bigan. After all, Bigan was a royal family. For Bigan, he could not immediately accept the cancellation of human captives.
Only Shang Rong and two senior doctors, Zhao Qi and Mei Bo, did not support Di Xin to do so, but they were very pleased to see Di Xin.
Di Xin sighed after seeing Manwu's appearance, and secretly said: "Sure enough, as Mr. said, it is so difficult to just abolish people and animals, let alone abolish slaves."
Di Xin said to Baiguan: "Let's all rise up. He won't cancel people."
When the ministers heard Di Xin ’s words, they immediately said, "The King Shengming!"
After all the ministers stood up, Di Xin said: "The people and animals can not be cancelled, but they must be reduced. After all, these people and animals are also very important labor. Therefore, Your Majesty ordered that the people and animals be made by the ancestral system of 1,200 people , Reduced to ninety-nine, of which children were excluded first, then artisans, and then young adults, male and female. The number of people and animals was reduced by the same proportion below the emperor. With so many, then the doctors must be reduced, after all, it cannot be more than Tianzi.
"This" Zong Zheng stopped talking immediately after hearing Di Xin ’s words, but immediately stopped talking after seeing Di Xin ’s eyes. After all, Di Xin was not a kind benevolent king, which annoyed Di Xin. You may lose your life.
"Great King Shengming!" At this time, Shang Rong, Zhao Qi, Mei Bo, and the three of them all fell to the ground together, and first stood up to support Di Xin, and then, Bigan also came out to support him, and then the sister-in-law. When the ministers saw that both the royal family's Bigan and Xunzi had agreed, they were even less qualified to control, and they all agreed with Di Xin's request.
At this time, Di Xin only showed a smile, and at the same time he felt a sigh of relief. Di Xin thought: "Sure enough, sir is right, this first step must come out. As long as there is a beginning, then the back You can slowly figure it out. "
And Di Xin also publicized this matter, and even posted the imperial list in Chaoge, letting everyone know ~ EbookFREE.me ~ his decision. After people learned that Di Xin ’s order to reduce the number of people was reduced, first of all, noble officials jumped out and thought it was inappropriate, but most of the civilians and slaves were grateful to Di Xin. Originally, in the minds of people, Di Xin was a very Courageous, domineering king, now people have an extra title, kindness.
When Li Yu knew about Di Xin ’s move, he drank a glass of wine with a smile and said, "Finally, China ’s civilization has taken a small step forward. Although it is only a small step, with this step, it will not run in the future. No more dreams. "
The princes around Dashang didn't care much after hearing Di Xin ’s move. After all, Di Xin could n’t control them, and they used as many people as they wanted. But afterwards, they knew that Di Xin ’s move was not just kindness, but also calculations. After all, the strength of the grassroots people was huge.
And after hearing this news, Jiang Ziya and Ji Fa in Sanshan Pass, Ji Fa, like the other princes, did not care. After all, although Di Xin reduced the number of people, it was not meant to be completely cancelled. Therefore, Ji Fa ’s attention Degree is not high.
However, Jiang Ziya didn't dare to care, and he understood how powerful Di Xin ’s command was, so he said to Ji Fa: "Wang Wang, Di Xin's move is inevitable."
"Oh, why is Father Shang?" Ji Fa said doubtfully.
Seeing Ji Fa being so unconcerned, Jiang Ziya said, "Wu Wang, Di Xin ’s move seems to have nothing to do with us, but it has gained a great reputation, especially among the civilians and slaves. Although these people have nothing Status, but after all, if these people all enter the big business, then Di Xin will have countless soldiers. By then, my big week will be dangerous. "
