Chapter 104: There is a king under the law of defending the king
"This ......" Li Shimin and Qin Chuan were both asked at once. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
They were stunned for a while, and finally Qin Chuan reacted faster: "You can't punish a doctor, you can't be a courtesy, it's like this!" Hasn't it been like this for thousands of years? β
Moreover, those nobles and officials are an important part of the country, they use their blood to live and die for the country, and use their wisdom to assist the king in pacifying the Quartet......
Their country has enshrined a lot, shouldn't the state treat them well?
At the moment of meritorious service, the descendants of grace, since ancient times, the Ming monarch and the holy king have reused talents and treated talents well, so they can achieve hegemony.
Qin Xiaogong, issued an order to seek merit, the scholar entered the customs, the high position of the Houjue, and the tired Qin, so he became the overlord of the world;
King Yan Zhao, build a golden platform, buy horse bones, weak swallows, and then occupy all the land.
These are all benefits brought by reusing talents and treating talents well. Without the three heroes of the early Han Dynasty, Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, was able to defeat Xiang Yu and establish the Han family for 400 years because of the reuse of talents. β
Li Shimin also defended all that he had gained for the existence of officials and aristocrats.
"Hmm......" Li Qin nodded lightly when he heard this, and seemed to agree with what Li Shimin said. It's just that after Li Shimin finished speaking, Shi Shiran opened his mouth: "What you said is basically good!" However, you still did not answer my question: the number of people in the world is increasing day by day, there is so much land in the world, and there are also high-ranking lords, noble officials encroaching on land, the rich are connected to each other, and the poor have no place to stand, such a question...... How do you fix it? β
"This ......" Li Shimin smiled bitterly: "I don't have a good way to do this." Or the indoctrination of the saints can give them a little conscience, and at the same time prescribe the law of the land and discourage annexation...... In this way, the world can be stable for a longer time. β
"Well, that's right!" Qin Chuan nodded vigorously at what Li Shimin said, and at the same time she looked at Li Qin with a little provocation: "There is no dynasty in the world that will not perish, and it can bring more than a hundred years of grand events to the people...... That's good enough, I guess we should be based on the present, right? β
"Hehe......" Li Qin smiled faintly: "Let the people live a good life for a hundred and ten years, and then be oppressed and fooled by bad emperors, bad officials, and bad landlords, and then in the weakness of the dynasty, they will be miserable, and finally they will be forced to raise troops and raise righteousness, and finally enter the capital, kill and eat your descendants!"
Brother Shimin, do you want your descendants to end up like this? Hundreds of years of glory and wealth have been turned into something in someone else's womb? Don't say that such things are too barbaric, once people are forced to be in a hurry, they can do anything.
The world is in turmoil, and there are no longer a few things that change children and eat. The requirements of the people in the world are not high, but they can only eat a meal, a clothes to wear, and a house to live in. All they want is to live, and if they can't even meet this demand, then they will also become the most violent demons.
As a result, the country perished, and the change of dynasty took place...... At this time, you people who are Cihang Jingzhai may be asked to continue to come out to help the Dragon Court! Do you think I'm right? Miss Xuan, the contemporary heir of Cihang Jingzhai. β
"Uh...... Do you recognize me? was called out on the spot, and Concubine Shi's eyes suddenly widened, and there was a hint of disbelief in her beautiful eyes.
She calmed down, regained her original calm, looked at Li Qin fixedly for a while, and suddenly laughed: "Can you recognize me...... This shows that you are not so ordinary either! I don't think you're a literati strategist! His Excellency Wu Gong Li Yuanhua ...... Do you think I'm right? β
"You recognize me too? Looks like I'm not low-key enough. Li Qin touched his nose with a sneer.
"I didn't expect you to be the southern overlord......" Concubine Xuan and Li Shimin were a little stunned. Concubine Xuan just wanted to test it, but she didn't want the blind cat to run into a dead mouse, Li Qin actually admitted it directly. This amazed her.
However, she didn't say anything more, just smiled and asked Li Qin: "Duke Wu is also a person who is interested in the world, I don't know what Duke Wu thinks the monarch should be?" β
"Know awe, understand the people's heart, abide by the law, and have an open heart! If you can have a forward-looking vision and not be so anxious, then this king can be regarded as a bright king. Li Qin didn't say much, just said a few points.
"Knowing awe, understanding the hearts of the people, abiding by the law, and having an open heart? Coupled with a forward-looking vision and a calm bearing? Is this the way of the king in your heart? Your idea is really a bit simple, don't you think it's important to employ people? Shi Fei Xuan asked again, "What you said is more like a request for officials than for the monarch." β
"Is there a big difference between a monarch and an official? Isn't the monarch the head of the officials? Don't think of the monarch as so high. And you say that employing people is very important, which I don't disagree with, but in my opinion, there are more important things in this world than employing people for the monarch. Li Qin smiled and shook his head gently.
"What's more important than employing people?" Shi Feixuan and Li Shimin were a little puzzled.
"Legislate! This is the foundation of a country. Li Qin said very seriously.
"Law?" Li Shimin shook his head, and Concubine Xuan also showed a disappointed look.
"Your Excellency is a person who respects the law? But have you forgotten the lesson of the great Qin who ruled the world but died in the second world? Concubine Xuan shook her head slightly.
"The Law of the Qin Dynasty...... Is that also called the law? I admit that the laws of Great Qin are very strict, but on top of such strict laws, there are still people who are not bound by the law. This is the law of Great Qin, the biggest flaw. Li Qin was dismissive of the law of the Qin Dynasty: "The law of the Great Qin only got the surface of the law, but did not get the foundation of the law. β
Hearing Li Qin's bold words, if it weren't for Li Qin's identity, Concubine Xuan and Li Shimin would think that he was talking big and talking nonsense. But Li Qin is the overlord of the south, and his overlord was not passed on to him by others, but he punched and kicked it himself, how can a person who can create such a foundation with his bare hands be underestimated. Regarding what Li Qin said, the two couldn't help but think about it carefully. It's just that they have never been able to go beyond the limitations of the times, so they are more and more unable to understand Li Qin's words. They couldn't, so they could only ask Li Qin: "What is the foundation of the Fa?" β
"The foundation of the law lies in knowing the law, abiding by the law, and enforcing the law...... The most crucial point for the present time is that it is necessary to determine the rules of the king under the law, which is an important guarantee of the authority of the law. β
Li Qin said calmly.
"The king is under the law, no one can be higher than the law, the law is the truth, what is what the monarch should do, is the responsibility of the monarch, what is the minister's should do, is the responsibility of the minister!
In this way, everyone understands their rights and obligations, and ensures that everyone is equal before the law. β
"This ...... It's just too wild. Shi Feixuan and Li Shimin were shocked: "What you said is very good, but it's too much to do...... Aren't you afraid that a lot of harsh laws will be enacted to make the whole world rebel? β
"So it's not that simple to legislate." Li Qin nodded with a serious expression: "The law of those details can be done slowly, but the first thing to determine is the fundamental law of the entire country - the Constitution."
This is the supreme law, and it is also the foundation of the state, which will determine what kind of state it is, what are the rights of the state, and what are the most basic rules of the state.
After that, no matter how the laws are formulated, there is only one thing that is dead, that is, the remaining laws must be within the framework of the constitution and cannot violate the constitution. If a law is contrary to the Constitution, then the law is null and void. β
"This feels like the Tenjo Ancestral Training!" Listening to Li Qin's explanation, both Concubine Xuan and Li Shimin felt that this was really familiar.
"It's kind of similar, but it's more stringent. The constitution I want to make under the law stipulates under what circumstances the monarch can be deposed. Li Qin said calmly: "In my conception, the monarch is to govern by arching, and the future power of the country will gradually be distributed to his officials. The army is separated from the executive, the legislature is separated from the judiciary, the power is divided as far as possible, and glory is given only to the monarch. That's what I want -- a hypocritical constitution. β
"This ...... Isn't this raising the monarch like a fool? Concubine Xuan was more and more surprised.
"Huh, stupid? If being stupid can bring glory and peace to their descendants, then it is good to let them be stupid. Li Qin smiled faintly.
"If there is no right, there will be no fight with officials for power; If you can give the officials a favor, then it is not easy for the officials to go to the last step. There are gains and losses, although the rights are gone, but they are peaceful. As a monarch, the necessary faΓ§ade of the country must still be there, so life will not be very bad...... Status, glory, and a good life are indeed the best property in a sense. Brother Yuanhua's move is really good. Li Shimin looked farther, and he immediately understood the benefits of doing so.
"What's more important is that everyone knows that the king does not rule the people, so if there is anything wrong with the country, the king will not be slandered. By relinquishing power, the king can transcend power in a sense. He can use his influence to make the final arbitration, so that the ministers below will not dare to oppress the monarch too much! β
Regarding Li Shimin's remarks, Li Qin lightly added:
"I will build schools and spread knowledge. These schools will be given royal names, and the king will be the headmaster of these schools, and all the officials and generals will come out of this school in the future.
In other words, they will all have the title of the protΓ©gΓ© of the Son of Heaven - the prince of heaven and earth, the five of men, and the king occupies two, and in this case, there are still people who are dissatisfied and want to usurp the throne, but I am afraid that no one will obey him. β
"That's amazing!" Li Shimin and Concubine Xuan were speechless.
If everything is as Li Qin said, then what he did was the major thing that established the rules of the imperial dynasty under heaven. This one thing is likely to change the rules of the whole world.
This is groundbreaking, but is this really as simple as Li Qin said?
This is a road that no one has traveled, and no one knows if it will work.
As a representative of the sect, Concubine Xuan shoulders the expectations of her sect. She is a person with a foundation and a career, no matter how she may, just because of Li Qin's words, she will give up everything to help Li Qin.
Li Shimin was appointed as the Ming monarch, and Li Tang was supported as the Dragon Court.
This plan had been determined before the concubine went down the mountain. The scenes that are being shown now are just pretended performances by Cihang Jingzhai in order to believe in the people of the world.
The reason why I found Xu Ziling is because Xu and Kou are young masters who have been famous in the rivers and lakes recently, and some words will be more credible if they testify;
Second, it is because of Xu Ziling's own personality and his relationship with Li Qin. Li Qin was already the overlord of the south, and Xu Ziling and Kou Zhong were his apprentices.
Unlike Kou Zhong's insistence, Xu Ziling is more like a gentleman, as warm as water. The gentleman deceives him, such a personality, coupled with his own knowledge, is naturally regarded as something that can be fooled.
So, they found Xu Ziling and acted in this scene through Xu Ziling's mouth and eyes. All this was originally planned, but I didn't want it to be Li Qin who Xu Ziling was talking to. And their tricks are very ridiculous to Li Qin.
Shi Feixuan still wants to fight to the death and use Li Qin as a stepping stone - if Li Qin's answer is similar to Li Shimin, she can say that Li Qin picks up people's teeth; If Li Qin's answer is not as good as Li Shimin, then it can be said that Li Qin is not as suitable as Li Shimin to be the emperor.
People have a mouth, no matter how you say the concubine, you can find the corresponding point.
But she never expected the question she asked, but the answer to Li Qin's was very different.
Li Qin obviously wanted to change the rules of the whole world in order to establish his own country.
This country should be like this, like this......
Li Qin said it well, but Concubine Shi couldn't believe it. This is different from their philosophy of Cihang Jingzhai.
Where is it so easy to open a path?
"Although this Jiangnan overlord is quite ambitious, it is likely that he is still a leading character. Since ancient times, there has been only unification from the north to the south, but there is no hearing of unification from the south to the north. After the exclamation, the concubine calmed down slightly, and became more and more sure that his original choice was right: "Li Yuanhua is talented, but it's a pity that he is a fool." β
The concubine sighed, then stopped speaking, got up, turned her head and drifted away.
After the concubine left, Xu Ziling and Li Shimin felt a little uncomfortable.
After knowing Li Qin's identity, Li Shimin felt that the person in front of him was a little scary. Although he didn't know where Li Qin's fear was, and he knew that he actually had a lot of things to reach a temporary agreement between Li Tang and Li Qin on his behalf, he still didn't think it was appropriate to say these things right now.
So after the concubine left, Li Shimin accompanied Li Qin and Xu Ziling to talk for a while, and finally got up to say goodbye.
"I didn't expect to meet Brother Yuanhua here, it's really surprising to me. I wonder if Brother Yuanhua is free these days? I want to have a banquet for Brother Yuanhua, and I also ask Brother Yuanhua to come. Li Shimin said politely.
"Brother Shimin is polite! I'm free these days...... It just needs to be set by Brother Shimin. Li Qin smiled, it was obviously not the time to break with Li Tang.
