Genius remembers it in one second and provides you with wonderful reading.

No one paid attention to him, Zhu Houzhao still looked at the wilderness under the sky happily, and even hummed a small song unconsciously: "Young red and pink are in love with each other, and the brocade tent is endless. Xingpo is in a hotel..."

Ye Chunqiu suddenly opened his eyes, Damn, where did you learn these obscene words?

Ye Chunqiu climbed up and looked at Zhu Houzhao and said, "Your Majesty, you can't sing, where did you learn this?"

Zhu Houzhao showed an innocent and romantic smile and said, "The refugees in Datong City sing this, even Xiaolan can sing it."

Ye Chunqiu looked depressed and had to hold his face and said, "You can't sing after returning to Beijing. If something is going to happen, Your Majesty should pay attention to Junyi."

Zhu Houzhao suddenly looked aggrieved: "Oh, but everyone sang, why can't I sing?"

"..." Ye Chunqiu was speechless about this question and said, "Your Majesty is fierce. Since you can't sleep, let's play a game."

game.

Ye Chunqiu lit a bonfire everywhere, surrounded an open space, and then in this open space, he first drew a map of the Ming Dynasty: "Your Majesty, where is this?"

"It's like a chicken. Unfortunately, the chicken's head is too small and there is a piece of the chicken's butt."

Ye Chunqiu shook his head and said, "This is the Ming Dynasty, the two capitals and thirteen provinces, and the various capitals."

"Oh." Zhu Houzhao suddenly thought that this chicken without a cockscomb and a chicken butt was indeed similar to the map he usually looked at, but...

When Zhu Houzhao thought of the chicken, he drooled: "To be honest, I want to eat chicken, and this porridge has been drunk."

Ye Chunqiu sighed and said, "Your Majesty, first, you are still in the Datong realm, there must be no chickens nearby. Second, you can't bring birds when you speak. If I listen to the Censor Deng, he will die again."

Ye Chunqiu immediately drew on the map of the desert, then Europe, then Africa, then Central Asia, then South Asia and Australia. Zhu Houzhao was amazed: "What is this? It's so big."

Ye Chunqiu said: "Your Majesty, the Ming Dynasty only occupies a corner of the east. Look, is the center of the world my Ming Dynasty?"

Zhu Houzhao frowned and said, "The Ming Dynasty is China's Central Plains, why is it not the center?"

Ye Chunqiu just smiled faintly and did not answer his words, but said, "Your Majesty, why are there internal and external troubles in the Ming Dynasty until today?"

Zhu Houzhao couldn't answer.

Ye Chunqiu said: "This is because of the land annexation. In addition to this, it is the heavy taxation. Does Your Majesty know what the population of Huangcai was during the Hongwu period? In the 26th year of Hongwu, Taizu ordered the creation of Huangcai, and the number of registered households was 606 million." Ye Chunqiu smiled, smiling a little bitterly: "But now, a hundred years have passed, and the world has been stable in a hundred years, but the population of Huangcai is 6135 million. This means that our Ming Dynasty did not have much disaster, and we have been safe for one hundred years, but the increased population is only one million."

Ye Chunqiu continued to explain: "The population has always increased rapidly in the peaceful world. When Taizu of Hongwu was still alive, the world experienced wars and chaos, and there were still 60 million. Why did it take forever to survive?

Ye Chunqiu sighed here and said, "Your Majesty, this is not because the population has not increased. According to my expectations, the population today is at least 100 million. The reason why the Huangcai population is comparable to that of Taizu is because ordinary people are fleeing households. Who dares to escape? If no one hides them, do they have the courage to hide them? Who is the person who hides them?"

Zhu Houzhao was stunned for a moment: "What do you mean..."

Ye Chunqiu smiled and said, "Our Ming Dynasty is a pool. There are big fish and small fish in the pool. Big fish eat small fish and small fish eat shrimps. One day, the big fish will become bigger and bigger and more greedy, which is the time to cause trouble and perish the world. Then there are only two ways to solve this problem. One is to kill the big fish, that is, to carry out reforms, learn from Shang Yang, Wang Anshi, and the big fish, clean up their hidden population, and depose their privileges, like tax-free population taxation. Does Your Majesty want to try it?"

"Uh..." Zhu Houzhao's face was tragic: "Liu Jin is reforming."

Yes, Liu Jin is indeed restructuring. To consolidate his rights, he did attack these big fish. But Ye Chunqiu shook his head in his heart, because Liu Jin himself is a bigger fish, and this is actually just a trick of big fish eating big fish.

Ye Chunqiu said, "In fact, it is too difficult to reform the old and establish the new. It will affect your whole body with one blow. Your Majesty is governing the world with the scholars and officials. If you completely rebel against them, the foundation of the country will be shaken. So... we still have a second way."

Ye Chunqiu began to tirelessly instill Zhu Houzhao. In this place far away from the center of power, Ye Chunqiu spoke without any scruples. There was no Liu Jin, no cabinet, nothing. Ye Chunqiu said proudly: "There is another way, which is to expand the pond into the sea, release the big fish from the pond, and put it into the sea. The big fish need to face the various big fish in the sea, and they will twist it into a rope. If their strength is insufficient, they need to rely on the power of small fish and shrimp in the pond..."

Ye Chunqiu pointed to all places except the territory of the Ming Dynasty and said, "This... is the sea. The reason why the big fish in the pond is cruel to the small fish and shrimp is because they only have such a small pond in their eyes. If others eat more, you eat less. If you don't eat it, it will eat you. However, once the big fish jumped into the ocean, there were fish and shrimps there. They naturally did not have much interest in the small fish and shrimps in the pond. Even... In order to make themselves more focused on dealing with the fish and shrimps in the ocean, they also need to buy the small fish and shrimps in the pond to enhance their strength when facing the fish and shrimps in the ocean."

Speaking of this, Ye Chunqiu glanced at Zhu Houzhao who was listening attentively to him, and then continued with expectation: "This is the second road. Only when this road is opened can the Ming Dynasty continue."

Zhu Houzhao understood, and he squatted on the ground, kept looking at the map on the ground, looking at the boundary of each continent, and couldn't help but say, "I have a problem."

Ye Chunqiu felt that he was giving new enlightenment to the little emperor. Fortunately, this little emperor was a person who was very easy to absorb new things. If the former Emperor Hongzhi was here, Ye Chunqiu would have been killed by his head because he was considered to be a witch and nonsense, and threw it all into the sea to feed the turtle.

To a certain extent, Ye Chunqiu was lucky. At least, although what he did now began to seem absurd and even deviated from this era, at least there were people who could trust themselves unconditionally.
