C1416 Zai Chun was not far from death?

If Xiao Letian wanted to promote the stock market in Jiangnan, he couldn't just push things forward in Su Prefecture. Soo Prefecture, Ryukyu, Shanghai, and other places would just be the location of the trade center.

Xiao Letian's plan in the future would be to use a series of trading markets to joint-stock all the important industries in Jiangnan. The Chinese capital would have to control at least 40% of Jiangnan's shares in the future.

What he wanted was not just shares, but a huge amount of shares! If I eat 40% of your business, of course, I won't be able to influence the management of your majority shareholders. But what if I can eat 40% of the whole Jiangnan economy? Probably no one would dare to confront such a huge capital at that time!

Using the power of capital to control Jiang-Nan would allow the wealth created by Jiang-Nan economy to continuously replenish the Chinese. Furthermore, by controlling the shares, he would indirectly control countless of businesses.

The penetration of Chinese thought into the people, will take advantage of the mouth of the merchants to penetrate deeper into the hearts of the people.

If he wanted to achieve this, he had to increase the speed at which more business names could be found on the stock market. Luring money was obviously a boost to the stock market, and with Zai Chun using imperial power as a guarantee? Wouldn't that be double insurance?

Look at these fanatical citizens, it's been more than 80 years since I've seen the emperor of the Great Qing, but the loyal monarch's mind is still so stubborn. If Zai Chun were to ascend to a higher level and say, "Jiangnan Stock Market is a good thing, you should have it!" With just that one sentence, this group of people went crazy.

The last bit of doubt the people had would disappear into thin air, and the speed of the stock market would increase by ten times or even more. This was the reason why Xiao Letian allowed him to hang his Dragon flag and reveal himself in front of the masses.

Xiang Ying sneered in his heart and thought, "Enjoy the cheers that belongs to you! He wasn't sure if he could do it in the future! In this Great Qing Dynasty, do you know how many people there are that do not want you to get close to the common people? "It's too many to count!"

What Xiang Ying said was not wrong at all. Not all the Emperors of the Ancient China were powerful Monarchs, and a large portion of them were very angry, especially so when they were angry at their subjects.

What do you mean? For example, the emperor was raised in a deep palace and had never come into contact with the common people. The officials of the Confucian Scholars would scold the emperor for not knowing the hardships of the people and would always say stupid things about eating minced meat.

However, if your emperor really does want to visit the people, then don't worry, these Confucian officials will jump out again and shout that the son of a thousand gold won't be able to sit still, that a gentleman won't be able to stand against a wall … He even told you that the Emperor works for the people to pay for his wealth, wasn't this how the emperor of Sui Yang's kingdom died?

Look, both sides are their reasoning. They can say whatever they want to say. If you don't listen, then you will lose your mind!

If you say, I do security measures, I will spend less do not disturb the people? Heh heh, it still won't do. They will say again, a single emperor's travel is so shabby, but it's not even comparable to a fifth-sixth rank high official travel. Isn't this undermining the authority of the royal family? No, absolutely not!

Now that the logic reached this point, it became a cycle of death. Alright, when you finally stopped daydreaming and decided to stay in the Forbidden City for the rest of your life, that shouldn't be wrong, right?

Unfortunately, the result was the same as before. Once again, you became the unconscious monarch that the Confucian Scholars spoke of who didn't know the hardships of the common people, and was always yelling about why they didn't eat meat.

Anyway, when the time comes, there will be an earthquake, a drought, a flood... This is your emperor not practicing his personal virtue. If your virtue is in a disadvantage, then you will have to give yourself a decree of sin!

When Xiao Letian explained this logic to Xiang Ying half-jokingly, Xiang Ying suddenly realized that he said something that made everyone present praise him very highly.

"Oh my god! They were using the emperor as a scapegoat! Isn't this what they call being a professional who takes the blame! "

That's right, most emperors in Chinese history were professionals who took the blame for this, and the more powerful the civil officials were, the more obvious this situation was.

The truth was that when Xiang Ying saw with his own eyes that a thirteen year old child could receive the fanatical worship of so many people just because he held the title of Emperor. He finally knew what those Gui Chen s were afraid of!

They came from the people. They knew how much the people worshipped the imperial power, so they were afraid that the Supreme Nine Five would come into contact with the lowest common people. If the highest and lowest points clashed, then there would be nothing for the civil officials to do.

Once the Emperor entered the people, he relied on the powerful halo bestowed upon him by the Heavens for thousands of years to instantly absorb all the people's hearts and minds. Moreover, with just a wave of his arm, he could easily subdue the people's power and attack any other political force.

Imagine if Zai Chun walked into such a fanatical scene and expressed goodwill to the citizens with some soft words, then chatted together and ate a piece of cold steamed bun from someone's house, drank some wild tea, and then hugged the grandson of the old farmer.

Once this sort of scene appeared, would the people of that era be able to resist? When the time comes, they will passionately hand over their lives to the Emperor.

At that time, Zai Chun will just say that this Xiang Ying beside me is a treacherous official, kill him! With just that one sentence, hundreds and thousands of citizens were able to tear Xiang Ying into pieces like crazy.

This kind of scene was in fact a nightmare in the hearts of ministers. It might be the dream of the citizens, but it was definitely not the dream of the bureaucratic class.

Because the bureaucratic class and the Emperor governed the world together, power and responsibility were always divided. If the Emperor took more power, wouldn't the bureaucratic class have less? If the Emperor had too much power, the bureaucratic class might not even be able to keep his life.

If a monarch was powerful enough to kill an official with a single word, then this emperor must be a nightmare for the officials!

Right now, Zai Chun was met with such a predicament. The masses hoped that he would become the Lord of the Sacred Grounds, but the bureaucratic class and the people of the Eight Flags definitely did not wish for him to become a strong Monarch in the end.

Heavens, were there not many examples of powerful emperors of the three dynasties killing officials? What if he was even more ruthless than the Yongzheng himself when supporting the Tongzhi Emperor? What if it had a higher prestige than Kang Xi and the dryad? I'm so full that I have to support Zai Chun to become a Holy Lord? Aren't I being careless!

This was the most fundamental thought that came into Xiao Letian's mind when he attempted to bring Zai Chun out of the Forbidden City. In the hearts of these people, the Emperor was just like a pig, it would be fine if he could stay in the Forbidden City and play with women!

What saint? What kind of lord are you? If you continue to think I'll kill you!

This was Zai Chun's nightmare, a nightmare that he had yet to realize. Actually, everything Zai Chun had done today, was simply pushing himself down the path of death.

The more outstanding Zai Chun was, the faster he would die, and the more those people would not let him go!

Xiang Ying looked at him with eyes full of pity and said softly, "What a pitiful little fellow! You know how miserable your fate is! Work hard. I hope that one day, you will be able to comprehend everything that your master has taught you … The powerful strength that you hold in your hands will depend on how you use it! "

"Thank your master for giving you a chance to be close to your people. There aren't many opportunities like this, so you need to cherish them!"
