(Leave: There is only this chapter today, I am really busy, I just came back from training outside, the bureau held training again, and I was busy with a series of safety inspections, evaluations and acceptance work before the start of school, so I didn't have time to write at all.) In any case, the work cannot be delayed, and there is no room for error. The gunman was just an amateur writer after all. I can only say I'm sorry, wait for this busy time to finish, and then slowly make up for it! ）

For the whole morning, it was Li Ze's one-man show.

And in his gushing speech, in fact, only two things were said.

First, although the emperor is the symbol of the empire, he is by no means the supreme owner of imperial power. The supreme power of the empire belongs to the ongoing Yixing Society Congress. The executor of the supreme power belongs to the Supreme Council, which is elected by the representatives of the Yixing Society on a one-person, one-vote basis. The emperor may or may not be a member of the Supreme Council.

This is a topic that is difficult for most people to understand. In the past, it was a matter of one and two, two and one, and the emperor was, of course, the symbol of the empire, but the emperor was also the highest decision-maker, the end of all problems. And now, Li Ze has separated him. This kind of self-cutting and self-damaging operation method is difficult for even these Yixing members to understand.

Although before this, official mouthpieces such as Datang Weekly had been blowing the wind non-stop, many people still believed that this was just a mode of operation by Li Ze, and no one was willing to give up the power in their hands.

But Li Ze put the focus of his speech on this today, but it made everyone react, Li Ze is playing seriously. For the senior leaders, since they knew Li Ze's thoughts, they certainly welcomed them with raised hands. From ancient times to the present, the rule of the imperial dynasty has always been a symbiosis between imperial power and relative power, but now, the emperor voluntarily gave up the power in his hands, which is something they can't ask for.

After all, the emperor's decision is also a huge threat to them.

Of course, as far as Li Ze is concerned, even if he announces that he has renounced this right, he can still make a decision, but his gesture and attitude are tantamount to giving these senior leaders the right and capital to fight.

Their vision is not limited to the present, but to go further. An emperor like Li Ze is rare to meet in a hundred years. He set an example here, and the emperor in the future, it will be easy to deal with.

The senior leaders were overjoyed, while the ordinary delegates were very confused. But at the same time, it is these people who have an almost superstitious and blind worship for Li Ze. In their opinion, what the emperor said naturally makes sense, and if they can't figure it out, it means that they have not yet reached a certain level.

And that's okay.

If it makes sense, it must be executed.

If you can't figure it out, you have to execute it, and then slowly figure it out in the process of implementation.

The second point that Li Ze focused on is the state and the nation.

Compared with the fact that he can use the Yixing Society to forcefully implement the current system, it is actually more difficult for the current Datang people to truly form the concept of a country and a nation. The former can be stipulated and compelled by law, but the latter is a kind of recognition from the heart, which requires a long period of precipitation, and it is by no means that he, the emperor, can decide in a word.

In the same way, this also requires all Yixing members to take the lead in their efforts. Millions of Yixing members are millions of preachers and practitioners.

Meetings were held in the morning and discussions were divided in the afternoon.

The large and small palaces of the old Yeting Palace have been transformed into small conference halls, and each delegation has its own place to discuss Li Ze's speech in the morning. At this time, the pen stickers of the Yixing Society, headed by Cao Zhang, were assigned to various delegations to give a deeper explanation and answer questions. Li Ze can only draw a broad line, from the national level, the general level, and the strategic level, but they can give specific answers to the deputies' questions one by one.

As the real writers of these theories and those who study them deeply, these people are actually more in-depth than Li Zelai at the theoretical level.

Li Ze and senior officials of Datang also entered these delegations to hold discussions with the delegates.

All the targeted questions were compiled into a booklet and were to be published and distributed to each local branch of the Yixing Society. The questions raised by these delegates are in fact questions that the vast majority of Yixing members urgently need to understand and answer.

No matter what you do, you have to put theory first. Li Ze has a deep understanding of this point. Theory is the guiding opinion, and only when the guiding opinion comes out can there be specific problems and concrete solutions.

In this regard, the theorists represented by Cao Chang at the headquarters of Yixing Society have been working silently for several years. This made all the representatives of the Yixing Society, although they were shocked after Li Ze formally proposed these ideas, they did not show too many unexpected reactions.

Big ingenuity doesn't work. The ordinary kung fu of wearing terrazzo bit by bit looks inconspicuous, and finally at this time, it has played its due effect.

On the second day, it was finally time to enter the most important and important agenda of the Yixing Society Congress, and to elect the first and most important chairman of the Economic Development Committee. The reason why this position is the most important is because this position basically controls the government affairs of the whole country, and it is an out-and-out position of chief assistant.

The meeting was held by secret ballot.

On the high platform, a ballot box stands alone on it, and each voter, holding a ballot sheet, walks up to the high platform in turn and votes in the box.

Li Ze was the first to walk on the high platform.

Then there were the high-ranking officials of the various ministries.

Then there were the representatives of the various delegations.

Candidates, everyone has already decided in their hearts.

Voting is not the most exciting time, but the most exciting time is when the votes are counted and counted.

The person who sang the vote was Wu Jin, and the person who reviewed it was Chun Yuyue.

For these two people, everyone is reassured, one is a notoriously iron-faced selfless guy who doesn't show affection to anyone, and the other is immersed in the law all his life and values the rules the most.

Once a rule is made, whether it is right or wrong, in Chun Yuyue's view, he must be accurately enforced until he is abolished. Just like the electoral system at the moment, as far as he is concerned, he may not agree with it in his heart, but he is still meticulous in his work.

The most nervous is undoubtedly the two candidates who have the highest voices this time and will face the competition. Xu Xiang and Cao Xin.

If it was said that at the beginning, Xu Xiang was rigidly erected by some people because of some interests and had to compete with Cao Xin, but at this moment, Xu Xiang didn't want to lose.

Neither of them was idle during this time. They are trying to lobby delegations to win votes for themselves. Cao Xin mainly strengthened his vote base, and he and his allies made rough calculations that as long as they could keep most of the votes in the core areas and the army, then his election would not be a big problem.

Xu Xiang naturally understands this, so during this period of time, his lobbying chose to go directly to Cao Xin's core. Xu Xiang has a great advantage, that is, in Cao Xin's self-esteemed ticket warehouse, there are many representatives, all of whom are his classmates and juniors in Wuwei Academy.

Wu Jin took out a ballot paper from the ballot box with a straight face, opened it, and read out a name with a blank face, while a scribe wrote the name of a person on a piece of white paper pasted on a large board, and then underneath the name, he made heavy strokes.

It's the same as everyone expected.

There are only two contenders.

Cao Xin and Xu Xiang.

At the beginning, Cao Xin was far ahead. At most, the bottom of his name was full of orthography one by one, which was nearly a hundred votes ahead of Xu Xiang. But just when Cao Xin showed a confident smile on his face, the situation changed abruptly. Xu Xiang's votes have skyrocketed.

By the time he finished singing the 500 votes, Xu Xiang had leveled the momentum of both sides.

After that, it was a one-sided slaughter.

Out of every ten votes, at most only one person chose Cao Xin, while nine voted for Xu Xiang.

Han Qi and Xue Ping had a happy smile on their faces.

Their choice is accurate.

From the very beginning, Xue Ping felt that Li Ze wanted a young man who was determined to forge ahead and dared to reform to come to power, and only those who had received the latest education of Wuwei Academy, dared to let go of their hands and feet, and dared to defy all old systems and have the courage to open up, could catch up with the pace of Emperor Li Ze.

Because Li Ze is breaking most of the old rules, and Cao Xin, as an old-style literati and a representative of the old-style warlords, obviously cannot be satisfied with Li Ze's requirements in terms of personal courage and ability.

After Cao Xin took power in Li Ze, he has been in the Ministry of Officials, although the Ministry of Officials is known as the head of all ministries and is a well-deserved boss among the hundred officials, but Li Ze has never let him get involved in the economy, which is a clear proof.

Xue Ping took the lead in choosing Xu Xiang in series, precisely in order to conform to Li Ze's idea, and at the same time, he also established an image of an ally and supporter for himself in front of Xu Xiang.

Everyone knows that it was Xue Ping and Han Qi who were the first to start supporting Xu Xiang earlier, and they would return the favor, Xu Xiang would definitely not treat them lightly, just a slight bias in the formulation of policies would be enough to make the Western Regions and the Northeast regions get huge returns.

Xu Xiang's votes are getting bigger and bigger.

By this time, everyone had come to their senses.

The fiscal and taxation system overwhelmingly supports Xu Xiang, which everyone knows. But such a large vote gap must be due to the fact that the military side also fell to Xu Xiang.

And the army has always been held by Emperor Li Ze, if Li Ze wants Cao Xin to come to power, then the army will never go against Li Ze's wishes.

In the final result, Xu Xiang defeated Cao Xin with an absolute advantage of more than 600 votes to more than 400 votes. He was elected as the chairman of the first Datang Economic Development Committee.

The dust settled.

Although Cao Xin's face was very ugly, he still walked in front of Xu Xiang, who was still a little stunned, under the gaze of everyone, and congratulated him with his fists.

Li Ze applauded.

At the same time, thunderous applause rang out in the hall.

The loser has grace, and the winner is unassuming.

This is the best result Li Ze wants.

In the afternoon, Xu Xiang of the newly released Economic Development Committee gave his first policy speech.

Obviously, Xu Xiang still did a lot of homework.

And his thinking does cater to the ideas of most people.

The outer king is the inner saint.

Internally, with economic development as the main idea, on the basis of solid agriculture, we will vigorously set up large-scale industrial workshops to promote the circulation of materials, reduce prices, and vigorously develop commerce.

Externally, to put it bluntly, it is to increase the intensity of plunder, and obtain more wealth from the outside to make up for the lack at home.

After years of war, the wealth within the Tang Dynasty is indeed lackluster, and if you want to have enough wealth in the country to circulate in a short period of time, except for the simplest way of plundering, there is basically no more effective way.

This catered to the needs of the merchants and also to the wishes of the army.

The bigwigs of the military department headed by Li Anmin have realized that the enemy in their south is already vulnerable, and once Li Ze orders an all-out attack, they are afraid that they will be defeated with a devastating momentum.

But what about after that?

Where does the army go from here?

During the war years, the position of the army was irreplaceable.

In peacetime, the army has become the biggest burden on the country, and the high annual military spending will make the country feel miserable.

So, the army needs the enemy.

Since there are no more enemies inside, look for them outside.

Emperor Li Ze had already shown them that the world was so big, then, as long as the country maintained the momentum of outward expansion, the interests of the army would not be lost.

That's what they mean by the need for a bold Shousuke.

Cao Xin is indeed powerful in the army, but he forgets that the current army, the older generation is gradually fading out, and the middle-level officers of the new generation are extremely eager to make meritorious contributions.

After all, it is still a matter of interests.

Merchants need more opportunities to make a fortune, farmers need more land, and the army needs more opportunities to make meritorious contributions, and only an empire that has always maintained the momentum of expansion can get them.

In these days of canvassing, Cao Xin's stated strategy for governing the country is undoubtedly far from what these people demand. Since he can't meet the requirements of these people, even if the personal relationship is good, when it comes to the critical moment, everyone will still abandon him and choose someone who can do this.

Cao Xin lost, but for Cao, it was not for nothing.

In the election of the Discipline Supervision Committee the next day, Cao Zhang was elected without surprise. The Cao family, finally, someone has entered this supreme council.

In the days that followed, each day, a new member of the Supreme Council was born.

The Military Council, there is no doubt that Li Ze is the only candidate.

The Intelligence Committee belonged to Gongsun Changming.

Culture and health belong to the chapter back.

The organization of personnel belongs to Yang Kai.
