    "Obviously, the issue of Emperor Hongzhi has no rules at all. One moment, he was thinking about selling his ancestral property, but the next moment, he turned to the issue of returning to his native land.

    Fang Jifan immediately realized that the emperor's visit was most likely related to his return to exile.

    There was actually a little bit of excitement in his heart. Did the emperor read his article?  It seemed that this article was to his liking.

    Fang Jifan then said: "Yes, this is my minister's answer."

    Emperor Hongzhi was silent for a moment, and then said: "But if the imperial court changes the status of Tuguiliu, it will inevitably trigger a backlash from the chieftains in the southwest, and chaos is just around the corner. Therefore, although changing Tuguiliu is a fundamental solution, it is still superficial."

    Yes, once the imperial court implements the reform of the land, it will be the same as cutting down the vassal state. How can those chieftains be willing to do so? They will definitely unite to launch a bigger rebellion.

    Fang Jifan said: "That's why the ministers proposed strategies, starting with using barbarians to control barbarians. The court could mobilize military households or natives from the Huguang area to the southwest to check and balance the vassals in the southwest and implement differentiation. In addition, a two-pronged approach could be used to extend favor.  , anyway, these chieftains will always rebel every now and then. As long as the counter-rebellion army and the wolf soldiers can be temporarily suppressed, different strategies will be adopted according to different tuzhous. If they are not convinced, the court will order the local wolf soldiers and military soldiers to suppress the rebellion.  Suppress them and kill their chieftains; if they are willing to submit obediently, they will be promised generous salaries so that although they have been deprived of power, they will not lose their wealth."

    Emperor Hongzhi had no expression on his face and stood quietly with his hands behind his back.

    Fang Jifan didn¡¯t know whether what he said was good or not. His words were a little dry, but he continued: "In fact, rebellions are frequent in the southwest. The most critical thing is that the imperial court has always had a huge blind spot."

    The word "blind spot" made Emperor Hongzhi raise his eyebrows slightly, showing a look of displeasure.

    Liu Qian, who was standing aside, was already filled with joy. How brave is this guy? Although I have never heard of the word "blind spot", I can understand the general meaning. Isn't this just accusing the princes of the court of being blind?  ?  If we dig deeper, do you mean that His Majesty is confused and unable to discern clearly?

    Fang Jifan gradually calmed down. When he spoke just now, his tone was a little inconsistent, but now he began to become more "unbridled": "The imperial court has always treated the chieftains, native officials, and native people in the native states as the ruler of the southwest.  As a whole, if you want to subsidize the natives, most of the time, you will reward the native officials. But in fact, although the native officials have received countless rewards, what benefit does it have to the natives? The natives have not received any benefits from the court.  , all these benefits were taken away by the chieftains and native officials, and they would naturally not be grateful for His Majesty's kindness. However, these chieftains and native officials were all clear-minded and knew that the reason why the imperial court rewarded them was because the imperial court wanted to appease them.  They do not engage in rebellion, so they are naturally arrogant, because they know that the more moderate provocation to the imperial court, the more worried the imperial court will be, and they can gain greater benefits from it."

    "The imperial court is not unkind to the native states in the southwest, but how can the native people be grateful to the imperial court if they have not benefited from it in real terms? The current reform of native soil and returning to local people is essentially aimed at those hereditary chieftains and natives.  When the officials went, the court wanted to weaken them. At the same time, the natives and these chieftains must not be regarded as one. They must be treated separately. There is no need to be merciful to the chieftains and native officials, but they can find ways to give the chieftains and native officials what should be given.  Benefits are given to the natives. If the imperial court allocates money and food to the poor natives while converting their land back to their hometowns, at the same time, it orders the local health station to provide the natives with enough salt and iron, and then gives them some land to open up wasteland and start from some  Among the natives, some smart people were promoted, schools were set up, they were allowed to study, and in the future they could be promoted to officials through the imperial examination. Then, even if the interests of the chieftains and hereditary native officials were infringed and they wanted to resist the imperial court, the natives would not be able to do so.  If people are unwilling to obey, can thirty or fifty local officials resist the heavenly soldiers?"

    "I believe that no matter where you are, the people of the same place have three religions and nine streams. Their respective needs are different. They must not be regarded as one and generalized. To govern the Tuzhou, we can only divide and rule. One method is to deal with the chieftains.  Smart natives are another method. Dealing with ordinary natives is another strategy. There should also be an effective method for dealing with weak women and children. Only in this way can the court clearly distinguish between ourselves and the enemy, and who can  To win over anyone, who needs to be resolutely attacked? As long as the court follows this method and sends a capable minister to the southwest to lead the process of reforming the land and returning it to the locals, and then orders the local military towns and wolf soldiers to be stationed in various key places, three or five  In a few years, if the hereditary chieftains are replaced by floating officials, this problem can be completely solved."

    Emperor Hongzhi listened indifferently at first.

    He was extremely interested in the four words of "reforming native land and returning to local life", but at first, he thought it was a bit unrealistic, but now he suddenly realized?, what Fang Jifan said was not only clear and logical, but was actually very reasonable.

    Why do the chieftains always hunt down people?  It was because the imperial court regarded the chieftains and their tribesmen as a whole, so the imperial court rewarded them to the chieftains. The natives wanted a good life, but they had to rely on the chieftains, and the chieftains took out the money and grain rewarded by the imperial court and distributed them.  Give it to the natives to win people's hearts.  And if a chieftain rebels, the court will regard the entire tribe as a rebel, and the result will not be divided into good and bad, and troops will be sent to suppress it. The final result is that the natives who have benefited from the chieftain and the chieftain are united. Once the chieftain rebels, the chieftain will  People share life and death with the chieftain.

    "Divide and rule" The more Emperor Hongzhi listened, the more interesting it became. Although the imperial court was also good at using the "divide and rule" method, such as dealing with the Oara and Tatar people, it would often provoke internal fighting between various departments, allowing the imperial court to sit back and enjoy the results.  But what Fang Jifan said about divide and rule was to separate the entire Tuzhou into three, six or nine, and formulate response methods according to different groups.

    Emperor Hongzhi¡¯s eyes lit up, and he vaguely felt that this strategy could work.

    Strange to say, a problem that was too big to solve, and the monarchs and ministers in the court were helpless, was exposed by such a guy, and Emperor Hongzhi was shocked in his heart.

    He couldn¡¯t help but take a deep look at Fang Jifan curiously. Where did this kid learn this?  It¡¯s just that he has always been steady. Although he was shocked, he kept his expression and said with a slight smile: "I heard that you are a dandy, uneducated and unskilled. When I saw you today, I felt that the rumors were full of falsehoods!"

    When he said this in an understatement, Fang Jifan raised his eyes cautiously, only to find that Emperor Hongzhi had a cold look on his face.

    Fang Jifan felt proud just now, thinking that the time had come for him to become a successful person, but now, he felt a little thumped in his heart.

    A terrible thought arose in his heart.

    What I did in the past was indeed a mixed account and liumanang image, but today the emperor saw that he found that he was ritual and answered like a flow. This

    its not right.

    How could a person who was usually rotten to the core change his mood?

    So what would the emperor think?  The worst result is that in the emperor's mind, he is convinced that he is pretending to be stupid. A person who pretends to be stupid at ordinary times but is extremely shrewd at critical moments. Doesn't this tell the emperor that his successor's city is extremely deep?

    "No emperor would want the person below him to be so sophisticated and thoughtful that even the emperor can't predict it. Can he still trust him?"  so¡­¡­

    Fang Jifan understood that his performance just now was simply seeking death.

    Thinking of this, Fang Jifan was already dripping with cold sweat and wanted to beat his chest and feet.

    ¡°Could this mean that if I don¡¯t act like a prodigal, I will give people the image of a schemer and careerist?

    ¡°In this case, our successor must be a villain, a scumbag and a prodigal son!
