Chapter 112

As soon as the four conditions were opened, the court discussion vegetable market became a meeting that no longer delved into.

Dashun did not have a civilian-official group that was twisted into a rope and seemed to have an independent will, and the personality was substantial, and there was no Ming Dynasty.

Even the dynasties did not have such a seemingly omnipotent entity, but divided into small groups with completely different interests.

In the middle of the Dashun Dynasty, there are many different groups, such as the Western French Party, the Old Conservative Party, the Northern Faction, the Southern Faction, and so on. Confucianism has three immortals, and there are really people who want to make meritorious contributions to morality and deeds, and do not hesitate to betray their own economic interests.

It's just that Liu Yu threw firecrackers into the dung pit, and if this firecracker really blew up, it would not be good for anyone.

The old man who is planning the country does not want to have big chaos in the country, especially at this juncture.

The West French Party does not want to really ban Christianity altogether and cut off all ties with the West.

Those who represent the interests of the gentry in Jiangnan do not want to be completely closed, nor do they want the reform of preferential exemption and gentry rations.

The northern faction, which was already dissatisfied with the large number of people in the south, did not want the group of people outside the imperial examination in Wude Palace to occupy more places and power.

The two most critical preferential exemption policies and the issue of Wude Palace's official release have created a sense of crisis among these small groups with different interests.

The situation at the end of the Ming Dynasty, it was after the Battle of Dashun Jingxiang, kneeling and begging the gentry not to be traitors. The slogan of Shuntian advocated righteousness was replaced with the slogan of protecting the world, and there was a lot of compromise for this. As long as you are not a traitor, many things can be discussed.

The current situation is that even if you want to be a traitor, there is no way, and the imperial power is naturally ready to sharpen its knives. At the end of the Ming Dynasty, the master was not exempted here, and the master shaved his hair and became a traitor; Now it's the whole world that is not the king's land, there is no semicolon, you don't do it, some people are rushing to do it.

For the first time in today's matter, they have a consensus, that is, to give way.

The practice of forming associations and discussing politics is becoming more and more popular, and all small groups in the DPRK and China have their own associations to control public opinion.

Once this consensus is reached, the different small groups will have to restrain their own people and stop making trouble within these four bottom lines.

Those who come forward and thin mud may not have ghosts in their hearts, and those who are on the wall with the wind may not be heroes.

The court meeting has become a meeting at this point.

In the end, it is completely impossible to distinguish who is loyal, who is traitorous, who is selfish, who is really for the country, who is behind the scenes, and who is in front of the stage.

The emperor did not delve into it, and the ministers did not want the emperor to pursue it.

All the articles that change the law are not opposed by everyone, nor are they supported by everyone.

But once any specific clause is discussed, the matter will not end today.

If there is a dispute, the party will fight.

Many people don't want to see the situation of party struggle, because Dashun is already facing a dispute between the old party and the West French party, and if something happens at this time, it will be completely chaotic.

Whether it is against or in favor, at this time, they can only come forward to cooperate with the emperor and suppress this matter.

The emperor is determined to do these four things, and if he doesn't agree, the emperor can only divide and disintegrate and make a big case.

If you really want to make a Dashun Wutai poetry case, it will be a scene that the courtiers who are qualified to participate in the court discussion do not want to see.

The conditions have been formulated, and they are the consensus of the different interest groups in the court after compromise: do not expose the scars at this time, and mention them later.

This consensus is no longer just between the emperor and the so-called Wenchen of the same rope, but between different small groups.

Whoever crosses the line will be attacked by the rest of the group.

Check and balance each other and remind each other.

It can also be regarded as the emperor woke up in advance the ministers who still didn't wake up in the dream at the end of the Ming Dynasty: the times have changed. I used to be afraid that the gentry would be traitors, but now I don't have to be afraid.

Change must change, and those who support change should seize the time to build momentum and discuss the specific items of change; If you oppose change, please seize the time to build momentum and discuss the general meaning of opposing change.

Today's peace and tranquility are just a decent cover for the future in private. It's not time yet.

When the court meeting arrived, the emperor stopped mentioning anything about the letter, but finally asked some practical questions.

For example, who should be sent to the envoy group of Rakshasas.

For example, how to solve the problem of civil strife in North Korea.

For example, the Siyi Pavilion was changed to a translation hall, and various departments have selected some young officials to send them.

These practical issues that would be debated on whether or not it is "righteous" on a daily basis were no longer debated about "righteousness", but the details were diligently and seriously discussed.

The letter seems to have been completely forgotten.

It seems to have never existed or existed.

Today's court meeting is simply the most pleasant court meeting held by Li Gan after returning from northern Xinjiang, there is no, and all the ministers have highlighted their work ability and practical level.

After the court disbanded, Liu Sheng, the Duke of Yiguo, was left behind, and the emperor summoned him alone.

Eat together by the way.

Different status levels, the feeling of eating with the emperor is completely different. Liu Sheng is not so careful as to hold a bowl, but it still tastes a little less delicious.

"Last time Liu Shouchang made a hot air balloon, I should know before you, right?"

Liu Sheng replied: "Yes." Not only did His Majesty know it before his ministers last time, but His Majesty also knew it before his ministers this time. ”

This answer is expected and reasonable. Sure enough, Liu Yu made trouble this time, and he didn't discuss it with Liu Sheng, just like last time.

Li Gan thought to himself that with such a son, you are also worried enough. It's just that his ideas for change, could it be that he really came up with it himself?

I thought about it again and again, although this idea is novel, but no one in the DPRK and China may not be able to think of it, but they just don't want to think about it and dare not think about it.

"What is Liu Shouchang busy with now?"

"Back to Your Majesty, I'm busy learning to write strategies."

Liu Sheng added an accent to the word strategy.

"Oh. Strategy! ”

Li Gan also added an accent, and said: "Well, this is the right way, you should practice hard." He's not crowned yet, is he? ”

"Yes, it's still a little bit old."

"If you don't reach the crown, that's the child. If you reach the crown, then you are not a child. It's not okay to mess around like this. Since he loves to mess around so much, he is afraid that he rarely dares to marry his daughter with confidence. ”

Liu Sheng knew in his heart that this was the emperor reminding himself, Liu Yu was going to be reused, so don't rush to decide this marriage first.

It's hard to say what will happen in the future, after all, your family is already a hereditary duke, if you reuse him, this marriage will have to be delayed, and don't think about using it to get married.

"The dog has been urinating a little abnormally since he was a child, and when he was a child, he saw a Western clock and was greatly surprised, and then he learned more Western knowledge. In recent years, he has done more perverse things, and there are also some words that 'the Huns have not been destroyed'. The ministers are ambitious, but they are also afraid of affecting others in the future, so they have not arranged marriages. ”

The emperor didn't find fault either, and said with a smile: "Even if it affects others, what he said is reasonable." When I saw the hot air balloon flying into the air that day, I knew that your Yiguo Mansion must be restless. It's just that since he is dedicated to the country, even if he is ten times more perverse, I can tolerate it. When it comes to discernment, I and Qing are not as good as Qi Guogong, and he can see that there is such a person who can be used among his nephews. ”

Liu Sheng said: "Qi Guogong went to Fujian back then and saw the benefits of Western ships and firearms. So he thought that there would be a change in the future, but the dog happened to learn Western knowledge. Qi Guogong didn't say anything, but he deceived the dog that day. It is also His Majesty's discerning eye to let the dog go north, so that there is a measure of merit. ”

"Oh, listen to Qing's meaning, Qing also thinks that the Western military system is the right way?"

"The minister doesn't understand Western learning. If you don't understand it, how dare you say that it's the right way and the wrong way? Qi Guogong may not understand, but he was shocked by the Western ships, and he felt that it was about the right way. Whether it is or not, it is difficult to say. Inuzi also said that the Rakshasa people in northern Xinjiang are not the Rakshasa camp, and their combat power is not strong. ”

Li Gan nodded, agreeing that you must really understand the saying that you can talk about the right path and the wrong way.

"The official recital of the Qi State said that it was the intention of the Rakshasa State Mission to practice Western formations and artillery skills. I think this is meant to be a demonstration. But you can also take a look. The Portuguese from the former dynasty of Macao once came to the capital to perform artillery, but it was blown up, and that was to sell artillery. The Rakshasa people naturally did not sell guns and cannons this time, but to show their strength. I'm going to get some people to watch the drill. What do you think? ”

Liu Sheng smiled: "The minister remembered a joke. A cow, tied in the peony garden, in April, is blooming. Three days later, I asked, what is the peony? It said: The taste is bitter and astringent, and it is far more than wheat grass. ”

Li Gan also smiled, and Liu Sheng said again: "If Your Majesty really wants to reform the military system, you can change it." If His Majesty wants the support of his ministers, how much good can he see in a drill? Besides, how many people know the soldiers in the DPRK and China? There are clouds in the play, one moment on stage, ten years off the stage. Even if you observe the Rakshasa Army's artillery skills, if you don't know how to train it, it's useless. ”

"The ancients said that the virtuous did not avoid relatives. If Your Majesty has the heart to change the military formation, you might as well give it a try with a dog. As for letting the Rakshasa demonstrate martial arts, it is not necessary. As for my deterrence, it is not necessary. Although the Beijing camp can be fought, the dog said that if the Jingying battle method is a big reading, it will make the Rakshasa despise. ”

Although he doesn't ask about political affairs on weekdays, he still has to say a word when it really concerns his family and foreign affairs.

Li Gan smiled and said, "In his opinion, the military formation of the national dynasty has fallen far behind. Speaking of this, I was very relieved, a few days ago he had been walking around the Rakshasa captives to ask more about the details of the military formation. The Rakshasa was captive for several months, and no one went but him. As for France and England, there are too many things involved, such as customs, tariffs, trade, and so on. If you want to learn Western warfare, it seems that you can only start from the Rakshasas. ”

"Since he is a guard, he should have taken a turn before entering the palace. I let him go back, just to let him prepare for the summer test of Wude Palace. But when I saw that he was messing around all day, it seemed that he was determined to succeed, and this worthless thing could be avoided. ”

"It just so happened that the Rakshasa mission asked for it, so he was by my side and did the work of interpreting. First, the missionaries of the DPRK and China believe in God instead of Orthodoxy, and they are afraid of selfishness; Second, I also want to know more about the Rakshasa state affairs, so that it can be used for negotiation and deterrence. ”

"From tomorrow onwards, he won't have nothing to do at home, just go to the front of the palace to be on duty."

Liu Sheng was overjoyed that he could be a close-quarters guard by the emperor's side, which was a manifestation of reuse in the future. Like the lord of the lord, being a guard is to be the emperor's side, so that the emperor can understand you and dare to use it in the future. Close after all.

Such an opportunity is really hard to ask for. Although the meal didn't taste good, it was worth it.

Before leaving after the meal, Li Gan smiled again: "He took the lead in messing around, and I punished the people who messed around together." It's hard to ask someone else to pay for this money, right? People help your son to make trouble, you don't even have to give up the thousands of taels of silver, and you won't look good in the future. Also, the matter of Chen Zhen will end here. The hot-blooded boy is just messing around, and there is no deep meaning. ”

"Yes. The minister wrote it down. ”

Of course, Liu Sheng didn't believe that no one was instigating and instigating behind his back, but the emperor said so, even if there was, there was none.
