Chapter 2469

"To take a very simple example, political history" Among them, the people-oriented regime originated in Athens, but it is essentially divided into three classes: nobility, citizens and civilians. Citizens gain power through war and personal efforts, but they treat civilians as slaves like nobility. In fact, it is a puppet country. Aristotle and others, the great sages of that country, tried their best to oppose the power of civilians. They believe that Even nobles and even tyrants are better than civilians in power. The creator of Athens, who is known as people-oriented, is Pericles, a famous sage. He regards women as goods and treats women extremely humble. I don't admit that he has real people-oriented in his heart. "

"After Athens, there was another sage named Rousseau. If his achievements in foreign countries were placed in the holy yuan continent, he would be canonized, and the holy position would be very high. However, he said that I don't like but have to agree. He said that it is unrealistic for the people in the strict sense to exist only in the ideal. It is against the laws of nature that most people rule and a few people are ruled. We don't know I can imagine people holding endless meetings to discuss public affairs. "

"At first, I felt uncomfortable when I saw this sage's speech, but when I thought about the history of the human race and the history of all ethnic groups, I had to admit that his words were indisputable. Moreover, when I saw his words, I thought of a sentence of Kong Sheng. The people can use them, but they can't know them. Of course, after searching for the ancient times, we found that this was a mistake in the inheritance of future generations. The original saying was that the people can use the Tao, but not Make wise. No matter which version, there is no essential difference. It is said that Kong Sheng believes that officials only need to tell and guide civilians what to do, not why to do so. "

"Before Kong Sheng was canonized, some people said that he was a fool and looked down on the people. Even after canonization, some scholars criticized Kong Sheng. However, if we think seriously, first of all, abandon all prejudices and, based on the level of education in the spring and Autumn period, should we implement a decree, tell the people directly to do well, or spend a lot of time educating them The context of this decree and all relevant details? "

None of the officials spoke, because the answer was yes. At that time, most people couldn't even recognize a few words. If they were really forced to learn the decree, they might expose the uprising.

Fang Yun said, "so, from a practical point of view, this sentence is right. Let's put this sentence now. I ask you, if every people in Shengyuan mainland has the right to decide every decree, what will happen in the world?"

Wei Xu hardly thought about cableway: "the world is in chaos."

Fang Yun nodded and said: "Yes. I share the same view as Kong Sheng. It is not that Kong Sheng and I think the people are stupid. We believe that under the current level of education and the current level of human mind and body, we do not have those theoretically perfect characters, such as justice, equality, nobility, reason, etc. our actions, thinking and judgment often depend not on reason, but on personal emotions Left and right. Peter Xiong, the sage of an alien race, said similar things. "

This time, almost all officials nodded.

Including those officials who have always opposed Fang Yun, they are convinced because Fang Yun is telling the truth.

Moreover, when Fang Yun says "we", he does not mean "the people", including Fang Yun and all officials know that even if he has a high literary position and far exceeds the ordinary people in all aspects, he also does not have those perfect moral characters, and his decisions are often influenced by emotions.

Fangyun Road: "Therefore, in a people-oriented country, on the surface, the people hand over power to the 'bureaucratic group'. It seems that power still exists among the people, but in fact, when bureaucrats get power, they become creatures to protect themselves and the interests of the bureaucratic class. For the sake of power, they will not so much please the people as use their talents and wisdom from the people for their own interests Cheat power, then consolidate power, and finally justify it so that the people can not really deprive them of their power. Throughout history, which King or the head of a country is really being overthrown by the people? Never! If the head of an ethnic group is defeated, the winner is either the elite of the same ethnic group or the head of a foreign ethnic group. "

All the officials began to try their best to recall history and those famous historical figures.

Cao De'an sighed: "although the death of Qin began with Chen Sheng and Wu Guang, the ultimate winner was Han Taizu. Han Taizu had an ordinary life experience and was an ordinary peasant child, but before he started, he had become a tall man, which was completely different from Chen Sheng and Wu Guang."

Fang Yun looked at Wei Xu and asked, "let me just ask, is there any soil for the birth of the people-oriented and elected system in Jingguo now, or even in Jingguo in the next 200 years?"

Wei Xu was stunned for a long time before he slowly said, "no, it can't be."

Fangyun Road: "Based on the works and history of many sages, I have summarized three ways of innovation. One is gradual compromise, the other is conservative improvement, and the other is radical revolution. For Jingguo, there is no doubt that popular election and people-oriented are radical innovation. Then, what is the result of radical innovation when there are many contradictions within the country and demons are eyeing outside?"

Wei Xu replied honestly, "the country is in chaos and may even collapse."

Fang Yun said, "therefore, we Jingguo officials should make concerted efforts to improve Jingguo through a gradual way. Jingguo can't stand the big toss."

There were sighs in the Jinluan hall.

This is not the perfect choice, but it is definitely the best choice.

However, these words cannot be made public, because they will inevitably be accused of being fools.

Fang Yun said, "the way of governance will be discussed comprehensively in the near future. Now, what we need to do is to improve the king state. The official department is the first of all departments. Today, we will start from the official department!"

Huang Zongyu, the Minister of the Ministry of officials, said, "please consult Fang Xiang. This is the first step in the improvement of the Ministry of officials. How to start?"

Fangyun Road: "The evaluation of our country follows the four virtues and twenty-seven most, among which the four virtues are morality and righteousness, clearness and prudence, fairness and diligence. Such evaluation is too general. In particular, morality and righteousness are regarded as the primary choice for evaluating officials, but it can not really verify the ability of an official. Since we want to make profits, we should naturally speak with political achievements. We should focus on the twenty-seven and be at the twenty-seven most Make better changes on the basis of. "

The so-called twenty-seven most is to judge according to different official positions or talents. For example, if the officials selected by the Ministry of officials in charge of evaluation are well done, they will be able to get comments on the role of civil servants and the promotion of good talents.

Huang Zongyu looked puzzled and said, "it's difficult for officials to make profits."

Fang Yun said, "I have a question. If it benefits the people, the country and the people, is it profit?"

Huang Zongyu said, "this is benevolence and righteousness."

Fang Yun said, "good! Doing good for the people and the country is not only doing good, but also doing benevolence and righteousness. For example, if a local county magistrate can make the people rich, every family has surplus food, everyone has surplus money, six livestock thrive, workshops multiply, business and trade are smooth, and taxes increase, this is a capable official. He should be promoted more than those county magistrates who have empty morality and righteousness, have heard of diligent bandits, but failed to make the people rich!"

"To benefit the people and the country is the core of Jingguo's innovation!"

Fang Yun's tone was resolute.

The officials breathed a sigh of relief. Originally, they were afraid that Fang Yun's so-called interests were as extreme as respecting rites and restoring antiquity. Now it seems that it is only changing the focus of the evaluation, which is completely acceptable.
