Chapter 173: Independence
The candles in Mu Qingfeng's study were bright, and they were lit all night. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Early in the morning of the second day, Mu Qingfeng sent another excerpt to Emperor Jiayou, and the content of the excerpt was aimed at Cheng Lin's excerpt yesterday.
Mu Qingfeng first agreed with the plan proposed by Cheng Lin, and then put forward some revisions to some details in the implementation of the plan, as well as the regions where it is recommended to be implemented and promoted first.
Emperor Jiayou was very satisfied, and his eyes looking at Mu Qingfeng were full of appreciation and relief.
At this point, the tone of the rectification of military affairs has basically been set, although there are still opposing courtiers in the court, but the voice has become much weaker, and Emperor Jiayou can basically ignore them.
The next step is the selection of ministers for the rectification of military affairs, and the ministers are secretly thinking in their hearts that this should be the most important thing, and who will lead the rectification of military affairs, and this candidate can be said to directly determine the effect of most of the military affairs rectification.
Before Emperor Jiayou could ask this sentence, the military department Shangshu made an excerpt and proposed to divide the Privy Council from the Zhongshu Sect and no longer be supervised by the Zhongshu Sect.
"Since Your Majesty has made up your mind to rectify military affairs, then rectify it to the end," the military department Shangshu listed the previous failed war cases, "The Privy Council has the power to dispatch soldiers, but after making decisions, it still needs the approval of the Chinese book, and it is too cumbersome to act, and it often delays the warplane, which is really a disadvantage." ”
Since the beginning of the previous dynasty, Zhongshu has been in charge of hundreds of officials, in charge of secrets, issuing decrees, having the power to issue orders, being the head of the prime minister, the Privy Council in charge of military secrets, border defense and palace guards, but it is under the jurisdiction of Zhongshu, and Zhongshu has the right to supervise the Privy Council.
"The Privy Council is independent of the Zhongshu Gate, military secrets, and important border defense matters can be directly reached by the Holy Hearing, and the responsibility of the hundred officials to act is already supervised by the Imperial Historical Observatory, so there is really no need for more Zhongshu threshold...... The independence of the Privy Council can greatly improve the speed of military messaging and improve the efficiency of wartime, please consider it. The military department Shangshu said it freely, and finally concluded.
The ministers were already mentally prepared to start discussing the selection of the leading minister for military affairs, but they did not expect that the secretary of the military department would have such a proposal, and they all looked at each other for a while.
The corners of Mu Qingfeng's mouth curled faintly, after a boiling controversy over such a major matter as rectifying military affairs, the tone was finally roughly set, and now the independent Privy Council is proposed, with previous experience, this time the ministers will definitely not rush to quarrel, they will definitely figure out the holy will first and then act according to the situation.
If the Privy Council is independent of the Chinese book, then it will be able to completely confirm the title of the East and West Mansions, and in the future, he can go hand in hand with Cheng Lin, share the military and political power, and no longer have to look at Cheng Lin's eyes.
Emperor Jiayou was also very surprised by the excerpt of the military department's Shangshu, he was silent for a long time, and did not directly let the important ministers discuss this matter first like last time.
The proposal of the military department is very wide-ranging, and he needs to think about it first or listen to the opinions of his confidant ministers.
Emperor Jiayou left the excerpt in the middle, and the court quieted down again, but there was a faint undercurrent surging under the quiet surface.
In a blink of an eye, the twenty-third day of the lunar month passed the sacrificial stove, and after the sacrificial stove, the official government sealed, and the atmosphere of the New Year became stronger and stronger.
On Chinese New Year's Eve, although there are not many students left in the entire and first inn, the innkeeper still prepared a table of good dishes for the students who were stranded in Jinling and could not return to Beijing for the New Year, so that they could make a lively scene, after all, no one knew whether any of these students would become extremely popular ministers in the future, and it would definitely not be wrong to build a good relationship now.
"Han Langjun, Xu Langjun, the feast is going to be held in a while, why are you still going out?" The innkeeper saw Han Yuntao holding a big oiled paper bag in his hand, and walked slowly down from the second floor, followed by Xu Yuzhi, and hurriedly stepped forward to say hello.
Han Yuntao smiled, with unconcealed joy and faint expectation in his eyes, "Thank you for the kindness of the shopkeeper, my cousin and I made an appointment with friends today, so I won't be in the inn to celebrate the New Year with everyone, and I will pay New Year's greetings to the shopkeeper in advance." ”
The shopkeeper was busy returning the courtesy, "It's good to make an appointment with a friend, I didn't expect Han Langjun to come to Jinling for a short time, and he already has such a close friend, congratulations to Han Langjun." ”
Han Yuntao was stunned for a moment, and then the corners of his mouth couldn't help curling, and he said goodbye to the shopkeeper and went out.
The streets are deserted, and the shops on both sides close after noon, except for the bright red stickers on the doors and the sound of firecrackers not far away.
"Cousin, did Mrs. Luo really ask us to celebrate the New Year together?" Xu Yuzhi confirmed again.
Since yesterday when he knew that he was going to the house of the little doctor who saved him for the New Year, Xu Yuzhi didn't know how many times he had asked now, but he still didn't believe that the news was true.
Han Yuntao has been curling the corners of his mouth since he left the inn, listening to Xu Yuzhi's question, and repeating the answer he didn't know how many times he said with a gentle face, "Naturally it's true, you haven't seen Luo Niangzi yet, and when you see people, remember to thank Luo Niangzi for saving her life." ”
Xu Yuzhi nodded, "This is nature." ”
He was very weak after waking up last time, and he hadn't thanked others in person for saving his life, so he naturally had to thank him in person this time.
It's just that Xu Yuzhi scratched his head and stared at the oiled paper bag in Han Yuntao's hand, "Cousin, that Luo lady just told you the address of her house, we don't know who else is in the family, we only mentioned such a gift and came to the door, will this gift be a little too thin?"
The smile on the corner of Han Yuntao's mouth froze, and his eyes fell on the oiled paper bag in his hand.
The oil-paper bag was bulging, and inside was the oil terminal of the shop at the corner of the street, and a sauce-board duck, remembering that Holly had said last time she loved it......
But what my cousin said makes sense, these gifts are a bit thin to visit people's homes, if her family dislikes his poor manners, what can she do?
Han Yuntao's originally pounding heart suddenly became a little heavy, and his steps became hesitant.
"Why don't we go make up for some more gifts?" he asked Xu Yuzhi hesitantly.
Between their cousins, it has always been Han Yuntao who takes the idea, and Xu Yuzhi listens, because Han Yuntao has a calm temperament, he is more jumpy.
The first time Xu Yuzhi saw Han Yuntao's hesitation, he scratched his head again in confusion, more hesitant than Han Yuntao, "But what to buy? Where is there still a shop with an open door now?"
Han Yuntao was a little discouraged, yes, today is the Chinese New Year's Eve, the shops on the street are closed, where else can I buy anything?
He complained a little to himself, he was happy to visit two days ago, how could he save it without taking into account such a simple problem.
Han Yuntao stood in place, hesitating, and for the first time in a few days, he had a nervous feeling about the upcoming meeting.
"Cousin, should we still go?" Xu Yuzhi asked when he saw him stop.
Han Yuntao was silent for a moment before he nodded, "Go, let's have an appointment first, it's not good to break the trust of others!"
With a moment of inexplicable apprehension, the two cousins came to Liuxing Hutong and knocked on the door of Mu Jin's house.
