The Yuan family's Renbi incident made people of insight in the world realize the necessity of controlling public opinion. Once public opinion is manipulated, the public opinion of the world will be in control, and the mountains and rocks will be opened and the mountains will be reclaimed, and there will be no disadvantage!

It is precisely because of the realization of the great power and serious destructive power of the "Zhenguan Weekly" that the Guanlong Group reacted so violently. If Fang Jun is not knocked into the dust, if he is doing such a thing one day, who can stand it?

It's a pity that His Majesty's determination to protect Fang Jun is too great, even if the Guanlong Group makes concerted efforts and the Jiangnan Shi clan beats the side drum on the side, it only cuts Fang Jun's position as a marquis, which is far from meeting the expectations of the Guanlong Group.

At the very least, we have to drive this kid away from Jing Zhaoyin's position, otherwise with the power of Jing Zhao Mansion in his hand as a feudal official, wouldn't all the Guanlong Group be equal to the grasshoppers in Fang Jun's hands, and toss with the convenience?

It's like a sharp sword hanging above your head and slashing down at any time, and it feels really uncomfortable......

Facts proved that the Guanlong Group's guess was correct, and after several issues of painless editorials, the "Zhenguan Weekly" once again published a strange editorial.

The reason why the word "weird" is used is because this editorial is somewhat incomprehensible, but the author is the former Chao Zaifu and Shangshu Zuo Servant Fang Xuanling......

That's interesting.

It's nothing to be a father to cheer for his son, but what's the matter with Yunshan Fog Cover coming up with such an editorial?

Han Ai immediately sent a servant to the street to buy a copy of "Zhenguan Weekly", put away the tea set, spread it on the tea table and read it carefully with the eldest grandson.

The editorial was titled "Although Zhou is an Old State, Its Life is Renewed......

This sentence comes from the first sentence of "The Book of Songs, Daya, King Wen": "King Wen is above, and Yu Zhao is in the sky." Although Zhou is an old state, its life is renewed. ”

It is to the effect that King Wen of Zhou received the mandate of heaven and showed the world: although Zhou is an old state, its mission is innovating.

Is this advocating institutional reform?

Han Ai was quite puzzled.

When he was young, he was outstanding, erudite and talented, and he was well versed in the rule of officials, and he was promoted to the head of the military department at a young age, which was not only promoted by the power of the Yongzhou Han clan, but also because he really had outstanding ability.

In his view, institutional reform is the labor pain that an imperial dynasty must go through to reach a certain period. Every dynasty can rise because it has a system that conforms to the times, but even the most perfect system will become full of evils over time, breeding carrion, leading to corruption and bloated institutions, so we must make up our minds to eliminate carrion and replace it.

But now that Datang is prosperous and prosperous, where is the need for innovation? Hasty innovation will not only fail to make further progress, but will even shake the political foundation, which is still perfect at the moment, and the gains outweigh the losses.

Fang Xuanling was able to become the head of Zaifu, and his ability to govern was recognized.

You can't rush it like that, right?

Puzzled, he continued to look down.

Looking at it, I became more and more confused......

Here Fang Xuanling quoted a famous saying: "For the benefit of the people, there is no need for the ancients; You don't have to follow the old ......"

This sentence was said by Liu An, the king of Huainan in the Han Dynasty, from the "Huainanzi Bian's Commentary", to the effect that if you can benefit the people, you don't have to follow the ancient rules, and if you can do things perfectly, you don't have to follow the old rules......

The eldest grandson said Qiqi: "This is to reform? ”

Is it really a need for reform?

Han Yuan pondered.

Since ancient times, it is inevitable that reform will harm the interests of a certain group and will inevitably meet with strong resistance.

If Fang Xuanling really wants to carry out reforms under the current situation of Datang, the first thing he opposes is not the Guanlong Group, not the Jiangnan Shi clan, not Shandong Haoqiang, but His Majesty Li Er!

Now that the Tang Dynasty is prosperous, His Majesty Li Er is thinking of pacifying the Western Regions and conquering Goguryeo to become an immortal emperor, how can Fang Xuanling be allowed to carry out reforms at this time to shake the political foundation and affect him to achieve the hegemony of the first emperor through the ages?

Moreover, Fang Xuanling's governing philosophy has always been relatively mild, and he will never anger His Majesty the Emperor for the so-called "famous history......

What the hell is this for?

*****

The whole of Chang'an was nervous and suspicious by this editorial in the "Zhenguan Weekly......

Is it that the imperial court wants to reform the rule of officials?

Every dynasty has moths, just a few more.

In the Tang Dynasty, where the family gate valve controlled most of the political resources, there were naturally not too many such moths. Moreover, the family gate valve is the vested interests of this era, and they naturally hope for the stability of the government.

If they do not change, they will be able to continue the privileged life they have lived for hundreds of years, with political resources in their hands, and they will be entrenched at the top of society to look down on all living beings.

If they change, they will suffer......

However, Fang Xuanling's editorial cites scriptures and classics to talk about the past and the present, and the whole article is full of brilliant words, so that you can't refute it if you want to.

You can't say that the Book of Songs is all nonsense, right?

You can't say that Liu An is full of nonsense, right?

Since I can't refute it, I have to endure it.

Anyway, no matter what you say, don't you have to implement it in the end?

When the time comes, I will resist you and impeach you......

All the family lords and court officials closely watched the movements of the political affairs hall.

If these people don't want reform and don't want change, then naturally there will be support!

The poor scholars and the landlord class in various places were in a state of great excitement!

Now the political pattern of the Tang Dynasty has been finalized, if it remains unchanged, the vast majority of political resources and social wealth are monopolized by the family gatekeepers, and the poor and small landlords are the objects of oppression, and there is no chance to turn over at all!

However, since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, it has become more and more prosperous, and the poor and small landlords have accumulated a lot of wealth while constantly gaining political status, which makes their ambitions gradually expand, and they are no longer satisfied with being suppressed by the family gate valve for the next hundred years!

They want to turn over, they want to rise, they want to participate in the highest echelons of the empire, then they can only change!

At worst, it is better to maintain the status quo, and wouldn't it be better if there was an opportunity?

Under this kind of national attention, half a month later, Jingzhao Mansion finally made a move.

Of course, just like that editorial, Jingzhaofu's actions are still confusing, and they can't see what is going on......

In order to control the market order, the Tang Dynasty had strict laws, and in order to control the market order, it not only set up management agencies such as the Municipal Bureau in the East City, but also set up stationed institutions subordinate to the center, such as the Standing Liquidation and Equalization Bureau.

The Equalization Administration is a price agency, through which it grasps the price levers of commodities related to people's livelihood in the market, constantly regulates the relationship between production, circulation and consumption through state buying and selling, and promotes social and economic development and prosperity, playing a role that cannot be replaced by other institutions.

The function of the Standing Liquidation is more specific than that of the Equalization Administration, which is a grain depot used to regulate grain prices. The empire was backed by abundant grain and salt reserves in the market, which could be used to level grain prices at any time, so as to further stabilize market prices and crack down on unscrupulous merchants who hoarded and lived in strange places.

Since Chang'an City is under the jurisdiction of Jingzhao Mansion, the entire east and west cities are under the jurisdiction of Jingzhao Mansion's patrol house.

As a result, the patrol house, the leveling department, and the standing flat became the actual managers of the east and west cities.

In the past few days, a group of people have been in and out of several warehouses next door to "Han's Jewelry Store", repairing doors and windows from time to time to buy furniture, which makes all the nearby businessmen puzzled.

Could it be that there is a store that is about to open?

This is the prime location of the entire East Market, and the competition between peers is also fierce, the market is so big, everyone who comes to grab food will have one less bite to eat, and everyone is thinking about not being their peers......

A few days later, the storeroom was cleaned up and a sign was hung at the door.

Market Management Enforcement Agency......

What kind of yamen is this?

The businessmen looked at each other, they hadn't heard of it!

I don't know which department belongs to the six ministries of the three provinces......

Soon, someone set off a long firecracker at the door, and the roaring explosion shook the entire East Market, and the merchants and porters all came to see the excitement, and for a time the crowd was crowded, and the water around the entire street was impassable.

In Chang'an City, the newly popular custom of setting off firecrackers for marriage or when opening is actually used here......

Is this a shop or a yamen?

The onlookers were speechless.

A young official stood in front of the door, pasted a notice on the wall next to the door, and said loudly: "The East City Branch of the Urban Management Law Enforcement Bureau under the jurisdiction of Jingzhao Mansion has been officially established!" From now on, the Department will devote itself to the prosperity and stability of the East Market, and severely crack down on illegal phenomena such as bullying and dominating the market, price gouging, and disturbing public order, so as to better serve the majority of businessmen. In a word, there are difficulties...... Looking for the chengguan! ”

Wang Xuance touched the sweat on his head, and scolded Lord Jing Zhaoyin in his heart, where did you learn these words?

It's so weird......
