Chapter 1335: Han Banner World (Twenty-Five) Incomprehensible

As a loser, when he fled here in panic, Wang Jian probably never thought that one day he would step into the desert again and walk the same path he had taken back then. Of course, the future was bleak at that time. , he couldn't see where his road was, but now, he was full of hope, and a golden road was being paved in front of him.

Kings, generals and ministers, would you rather have the seed? Niu Ben's somewhat hesitant advice on treating Wang Jian's establishment of the country made Jian Tong determined, yes, nothing is impossible. Did the ancestors of the Great Qin Dynasty ever have anything? What did Gao Yuan, the king of the Han Kingdom, the most powerful in this land, have back then?

This time when he went back, what he was seeking was the official recognition of the Han Kingdom. Now his country was very small and weak. If the Han wanted to annex him, in Wang Jian's view, it would be easy. However, in Niu, In addition to Ben's attitude towards the big food in black, he vaguely saw a way to survive.

The big man seemed to be full of fear of this enemy he had never met before, so his existence had value. The Qin State is no longer worth what you have to pay for them, and they cannot help you. The only one who can help you is your former enemy, the Han Kingdom.

Of course, he had another purpose in going to Dayan County, which was to bring back the remains of his father who died in Dayan County. As for the Wang family's ancestral temples and family tombs that are still within the Qin territory, Niu Ben, the special envoy of the Han State, also promised that after the Han Dynasty defeated the Qin State, they could be welcomed back to his own territory by Wang Jian.

More than a thousand cavalry protected Wang Jian as he trekked through the desert. Different from fleeing in embarrassment at the beginning, this time on the return trip, he was confident that he could stay and rest wherever there was water in the desert. They are all clearly marked on the map.

On a small oasis, after several days of trekking, the team finally arrived at their first resting place. They were given a water source to wash off the dust accumulated over the past few days. For those who march in the desert, it is a kind of enjoyment.

Wang Jian is sitting on the green field. Watching with a smile, his soldiers picked up the water from the well and poured it on themselves with a splash. Get yourself soaked.

"General Niu, have the Central Plains changed much now?" He asked, looking at Niu Ben who was sitting next to him.

"How should I put it? Of course the changes are huge." Niu Ben thought for a moment and said, "But it's precisely because the changes are so big that I don't know where to start."

"The changes are so great that it's hard to talk about it!" Wang Jian chewed this sentence carefully, and it seemed to have infinite meaning. "I hear your guards talking about the King of Han a lot these days, but there is one thing I'm curious about. Please ask General Niu to teach me."

"I don't know what General Wang is puzzled about. Of course Niu Ben knows everything he knows and talks about it."

"They often talk about the King of Han, and they don't shy away from us. From their words, I can hear that they respect the King of Han very much, respect from the bottom of their hearts, but it seems that they are not afraid of your King of Han. How is this? What’s going on?”

When Niu Ben heard this question, Niu Ben smiled: "Our Kingdom of Han is a brand-new country that has created a new world in this land. It is different from any other country in history. For your question, I will use the words of the King of Han. To answer you, the King of Han said that he does not need the people's fear, and the people's respect for him is the greatest compliment to him. All the people of the Han Dynasty only need to fear one thing, and that is the law of the Han Dynasty. , As long as you are within the scope stipulated by the laws of the Han Dynasty, you can do what you like without anyone interfering, as long as there is no prohibition by law."

"Is it feasible if the law does not prohibit it?" Wang Jian shook his head, "If your law does not stipulate that you are not allowed to scold the King of Han, does that mean that your citizens can scold the King of Han at will?"

Niu Ben laughed loudly, "It is true that the laws of the Han Dynasty do not stipulate this, but in the Han Dynasty, whoever dares to insult the King of Han will be beaten so hard that he will not even recognize his mother. And the person who beats him will not be the government. ,

Because there is no provision in the law not to do this, it will only be the common people who beat him. But your question hits the mark. In our Han Dynasty, apart from the king and members of the royal family, other ministers, including our chief ministers, are often scolded to death. "

"Is there such a thing?" Wang Jian asked in surprise.

"Of course, I told you about our Dahan Weekly two days ago. Dahan Weekly has four pages dedicated to publishing current affairs and political content. That is also where some literati often use to scold officials. Whenever they feel something is wrong, Then you can write an article and publish it in the newspaper.”

"Your court doesn't care about such humiliating things?"

"The imperial court has a Propaganda Department, which will of course review the publication of current affairs and political news. However, as long as it does not involve state secrets, such abusive articles will not be banned. On the contrary, if a department is scolded, the Political Affairs Hall will immediately find it. The troubles of this scolded official, are all the things mentioned in this newspaper true? What explanation do you have, etc. Therefore, our current Dahan officials should take a look at whether they have any problems every time the Dahan Weekly comes out. Get scolded!" Niu Ben said with a smile.

"Then what if a senior member of the political hall is scolded?"

"Of course the Great Council will take charge. Sometimes it will be the King, but if the King comes out, it may be a big deal. But in the past few years since the founding of the Han Dynasty, such a thing has not happened. The adults of the Political Hall Still very cautious." Niu Ben smiled at Wang Jian, but at this time, he thought of the Li Can incident the year before last. This incident was indeed a scandal for Da Han, but he was eventually detained. , as a senior member of the National Security Bureau, he is naturally one of the few who knows the inside story.

"How can officials manage the people if they are so dishonorable?" Wang Jian asked another question.

"In our Han Dynasty, the people are not managed by officials, but by laws." Niu Ben put forward another point of view that Wang Jian could not accept. "The king often emphasized that he is not the owner of the Han Dynasty, but only the leader of the Han Dynasty. Officials are not the parents of the people, but the servants of the people. Your Majesty hates the term "parent officials" the most, and he also hates the saying that there is a blue sky master somewhere. "

"This, what's the truth?" Wang Jian asked in surprise.

"The so-called parent officials place themselves higher than the common people and think that they are the parents of the common people. Don't parents beat their children whenever they want and scold them whenever they want? In our Han Dynasty, this is not acceptable. Furthermore, why is it so? The reason for the appearance of Mr. Qingtian is because the government in your place is dark, so a person who enforces the law impartially is worshiped by others. This is not the glory of the man, but the shame of the man. The man does not need Mr. Qingtian, he only needs it. Just laws and officials and people who act in accordance with the laws. If everyone acts in accordance with the laws, why do we need the Lord Qingtian?"

Wang Jian was speechless. He had nothing to do these days and talked with Niu Ben in detail about Da Han. Words and things that he couldn't understand often popped out of Niu Ben's mouth, which made him a little confused, but they were far away. It was nowhere near the shock that Niu Ben gave him today.

If the Han Dynasty is like this, can the country still be a country?

But the fact is that the Han Dynasty is the strongest country in this land.

"Do you, King of Han, care so little about etiquette?" he asked nagging.

Niu Ben laughed heartily: "Why don't you pay attention? We big men set up schools. Children of school age, regardless of gender, must go to school. These are all free. Where we are, they are called primary schools. This is what every child needs." It is necessary to go to school. If the parents do not let their children go to school, they will be punished. Of course, this is the only thing that can be done now. If you want to go to middle school or go to college, it will not be free, Your Majesty. Every time I talk about this, I sigh, saying that the money is not enough. If we were richer, middle school should be free. "

"But in my opinion, you guys are already richest in the world." Wang Jian said.

"But the land is so big and there are so many people. If it's divided into every place and every person, it won't be worth mentioning!" Niu Ben said. "Everything requires money."

"Now that the Han Dynasty has formed a crushing advantage over the Qin State in terms of military affairs, why did your king not sweep across the country, but why did you delay taking action?" Wang Jian asked again, based on what he had learned in the past few days, The Qin State is already dead, but the Han Dynasty is at its peak. In his opinion, if he doesn't take action against this overwhelming advantage, is he still waiting for the Qin State to breathe again?

"The first is the issue of money. When the army moves, food, weapons, and wages go first. The money flows out in a hurry. In the king's opinion, the most critical issue now is not whether we can win the Qin State, but whether we can win it or not. What to do after we capture the Qin Kingdom? The Qin Kingdom is not small, and the people are unimaginably poor. Once the Han conquers it, it will be our Han’s territory, and the people will be the Han’s subjects, so they must be treated the same as the Han people now. Well, how much will it cost? But now that we big men can’t afford it, we can only wait and let the people of Qin suffer for a few more days! Secondly, people will die in war, and the people of Qin are not dead yet. Basically, the army is still quite capable of fighting. Even if we win, our soldiers will not suffer small losses. Your Majesty loves his soldiers like his own sons and is not willing to die too many people, so let's wait a little longer, maybe for a while. In time, the people of Qin will do it themselves, so if we go and take advantage, we will naturally lose a lot of lives," Niu Ben said.

Wang Jian understood in his heart that the Han Dynasty was trying to drag Qin to death.

"Where's the Chu people?"

"Chu people are a little more troublesome, but it's impossible to know the specifics of my position. Anyway, I just have to finish the errands assigned by my superiors." Niu Ben said with a smile: "In any case, Qin Chu is also happy In a few days, there will be plenty of food on our plates, so there is no rush. The king said to lay a solid foundation first, and other things will naturally fall into place. "

Things will fall into place! The big man is actually so confident that when he goes back this time, he must take a good look at it so that he can decide on his national policy in the future.

A sharp warning whistle suddenly sounded in the distance, and Wang Jian stood up immediately. In the distance, the scouts that Wang Bufang had sent were rolling up waves of wild sand, and the warning whistle came from exactly where the scouts were. of.

"Enemy attack?" Niu Ben also stood up suddenly. Where did the enemy come from in this desert? (To be continued.)
