After five years of teaching support, Daming became an empire on which the sun never sets.

Chapter 408 Let them recognize their ancestors and return to their ancestors
"I heard that the people of Siam, Funan, Bagan, Johor and many other small countries in the south that are rich in food are also descendants of my Chinese." Wang Guangyang said, "So I suggest that we also use the old method of dealing with Japanese countries to let them I also recognize my ancestors and return to my ancestors."

"Then classify that large area as one or several provinces of Ming Dynasty."

"They are originally Chinese descendants, so it is only natural for them to recognize their ancestors and return to their ancestors." Liu Bowen said, "The surname of the king of Siam is Li. What is Li not my surname in the Central Plains?"

"In addition, several other small countries also have Central Plains culture."

"And according to historical records, these small countries in the past had many cultural and economic exchanges with the Central Plains Dynasty. Their culture was deeply influenced by the Central Plains Dynasty, so in the final analysis, they are just a family of our Great China." Song Lian said.

"According to historical records, the people in the southwest belong to the Jiuli tribe and are the descendants of Chi You."

"Their roots are in our Central Plains."

"The so-called 'Li Min' among the common people refers to them."

"These small countries used to be our vassal states."

Hearing that Emperor Zhu intended to send troops to the south, the officials began to speak in accordance with the emperor's wishes.

In the past, those civil servants were extremely opposed to the emperor's war.

But it's different now, the Confucian culture has been completely eliminated, and they have gradually adapted to the emperor's style.To say that Zhu Yuanzhang still has a great desire for the vast territory of Ming Dynasty.

Otherwise, he would not have seized the Sixteen States of Yanyun, nor would he have conquered Uzang.

Unlike those emperors in the Song Dynasty, they liked to live in a quiet corner.

In the final analysis, this is called a great talent.

And it is also in line with the principle of establishing a country based on morality, and wolves travel thousands of miles to eat meat.

"Very good, very good. I didn't expect all the ministers to agree with us this time. We are very pleased to hear this." Zhu Yuanzhang said very satisfied with the reaction of the ministers.

"If in the past, when you civil servants heard that we were going to fight, you would stand up and oppose collectively, strongly oppose, and even remonstrate, which would give us a headache, and we would like to kill him quickly."

"It's all right now. The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty are united and support us to launch a just war."

"It's like a breath of fresh air."

"Your Majesty, in the past, the ministers were bewitched by Confucianism's 'false benevolence and hypocrisy', so they opposed foreign wars." The ministers said, "Now that the cancer of Confucianism has been eliminated, the ministers have awakened."

"Just wake up," Zhu Yuanzhang said, "Let's do this."

"In the southwest of Ming Dynasty, there are five or six small countries. Every time the Ming army conquers a country and incorporates it into the territory of Ming Dynasty, it will be given to the ministers and workers. The salary will be increased by ten taels of silver every month."

Ten taels of silver per month is a large amount.

"We are kind to the people, and we try our best to make them live a better life, and we have introduced a series of policies to benefit the people. While we are good to the people, we can't forget you 'nannies' who serve the people, right?"

"The servants, after all, are the best among them."

"It's also a member of my big Ming family."

"You have worked hard for the people of the world, and you should be rewarded."

"Emperor Shengming!" The ministers said in succession.

And he was overjoyed. Every time he conquered a southern country, he would give them ten taels of silver?If all of them are laid down, then they will increase their salary by five or sixty taels per month.

By then they will be considered very rich.

"We have given you such good benefits and high salaries, you must be worthy of these salaries!" Zhu Yuanzhang said again earnestly, "With a high salary and a happy and stable life, you should be content. "

"Don't think that after you become rich, you will become a master and ride on the heads of others."

"Mr. Qin said that all people are created equal. If you become a superior and ride on others, what should you do if you let those people be inferior? If you treat others as inferiors, someone will treat you as inferiors."

"Where there is oppression, there is resistance."

"The dean of Jixia Academy conceived a blueprint for the future of our Ming Dynasty based on Dao, which is to become a natural society in the future, naturalism. It is the world in which all people live and form a natural ecology."

"Natural ecology is the result of natural selection by nature from the moment life is born."

"Only the natural ecology is in line with the way of heaven."

"Only for a long time."

"It's not the utopia conceived by some foreign philosophers, because utopia can never be realized. People have selfishness, so it is impossible not to have a series of problems."

"Natural society means that the court uses the law of natural selection to manage the dynasty."

"Finally, a natural world is formed."

Natural society, the natural world?
The crowd was shocked by this idea.

Not moneyism, not idealism, but naturalism.

Of course, this is just a doctrine conceived by Qin Yu for the feudal dynasty.

It was originally just an idea, but Zhu Yuanzhang never expected to take it seriously and put it into practice.

……

"Officials in the imperial court have high salaries because they worry more, pay more, and have talents worthy of high salaries. To be honest, the people of Ming Dynasty are also sensible people, and they will not hate those who are capable. Officials enjoy high salaries."

"They will only hate those who enjoy resources without working for nothing, or even harming people."

"In the Ming Dynasty, we must appoint people on their merits."

"Only those who are truly capable are worthy of such a high salary."

"If someone's morality is not worthy, it is a mistake in the selection of officials by the imperial court."

"If someone has a high salary, but is greedy, and wants to harm the people with ink, then our beheading knife will not rust!"

"I don't dare to wait!" The ministers heard the words and said one after another, "I will definitely do my best for the people of the world in the future. For the country and the people, I will do my best and die."

"Okay, let's not listen to your empty slogans, let's see your actual actions." Zhu Yuanzhang said, "Let's continue to discuss and send troops to the neighboring countries in the southwest."

"I feel that sending troops to the neighboring countries in the southwest is definitely an act of justice, and the merits will last forever." Yang Xiandao, "I remember that during the time of Qin Shihuang, he sent troops to fight against Zhao Tuo, the martial king of South Vietnam."

"It was not defeated at first, but later Liu Bang brought South Vietnam into China's territory."

"If it weren't for Qin Shihuang and Han Gaozu's military crusade, then the current southern provinces would not belong to China. They are still barren lands, and the people are poor and backward, living in dire straits."

"It was the crusade of Qin Shihuang and Han Gaozu that accelerated the civilization process of South Vietnam and completely integrated South Vietnam and the Central Plains."
