Wenyi touched his head and said:

"Let's analyze the essence of the matter first, the supremacy of the throne has led people to fight for it with all their might. What if we limit the imperial power? Wouldn't it be better to limit imperial power to a certain extent?

My idea is that your Li family will set up an elders' council, with a respected person in the clan serving as an elder, and the emperor will be elected by the elders' council, and each emperor will serve for a term of 15 years, and after the expiration of the term, he will automatically become an elder elder. Without the appointment of a crown prince, all the younger generations have the right to compete for the throne, and the presbyterian council determines three candidates for the throne through their political, military, legal and other evaluations, and these three candidates have to write a ruling plan, and then the current emperor decides who will be the successor.

If there is a faint monarch like Emperor Yang of Sui, the Council of Elders has the right to directly replace the new emperor. This will also avoid the destruction of an entire dynasty because of one emperor. It's easier said than done! First of all, the crown prince can't be the emperor, he will never do what we want, and secondly, it should be difficult for your father to give up the power in his hands after he succeeds. You are the eldest son, and you are still too young, and when you grow up and taste the sweetness of power, I don't know if you will remember my plan."

Li Chengqian was shocked when he heard for the first time that Wenyi wanted to limit the emperor's power, and he slowed down for a while before saying: "The disciple will remember the master's teachings and help the master complete this great plan. Can turmoil be avoided just by restricting imperial power? What if an ambitious family wants to take its place? ”

Literature and art said: "The power in the world is nothing more than political power, financial power, and military power, as long as these three rights are firmly controlled in their hands, no one will be able to rebel successfully." These three complement each other, but one cannot allow one person to master all three powers at the same time. My ideal state is that the emperor has absolute power, most of the gold power and most of the military power is responsible for managing the country and expanding the territory; The Council of Elders held legislative power and military power in the vicinity of Chang'an, and was responsible for limiting the emperor's power and safeguarding the imperial family's safety; Ceded part of the golden power to the prime minister, who had the same goals as the emperor, and only one prime minister was appointed to assist the emperor in better managing the country. This prime minister is to give the interests of those nobles, who can become the prime minister depends on their own ability, but the prime minister's term of office is also 15 years, and the emperor is elected at the same time. In this way, those careerists will no longer be concerned about the throne whose power has been limited. ”

Li Chengqian asked again: "But after they seize power, they can restore the system of supremacy of imperial power." ”

Wenyi shook his head and said: "No family can compete with the world on its own, the current five surnames and seven hopes are not good, and neither can your Li royal family, after those scholars taste the sweetness of the new system, do you think they will help a dictator rebel?" ”

Li Chengqian's eyes lit up and he said happily: "Doesn't that mean that our Li family will achieve the real eternal stability of the country?" ”

Wenyi said with a smile: "Nothing is absolute, just like Xia Wangyu couldn't imagine that the Xia Dynasty would be destroyed in the hands of Xia Wei, Shang Tang couldn't imagine that the Shang Dynasty would be destroyed in the hands of Xia Wei, and Yang Guang couldn't imagine that the country would be defeated in the hands of his son. ”

Li Chengqian was still happy and said: "Doesn't the master often say that things are man-made, anyway, history has proved that the traditional replacement of imperial power will definitely not last long, so let's try a new way out!" ”

Literature and art nodded: "Encourage with you!" Cheng Qian, you have really grown up. ”

After Li Chengqian was praised, he changed back to the appearance of a child, and he was silly there. The master and apprentice gossiped a little more before returning to the camp.

When they arrived in Jinan, they had nothing to gain except for the poor people who had seen all the way, so the five masters and apprentices went to Shijiazhuang, Hebei - Shijiazhuang in the Tang Dynasty belonged to Hengshan County (later changed to Hengzhou, the county was governed by Zhending, now Zhengding Town), Zhao County (the county was governed by Pingjiao, now Zhaozhou Town), Xindu County (the county was governed by Jizhou City), and Gaoyang County (the county was governed by Dingzhou City) (which had little impact on this article, so Shijiazhuang was directly used as the place name). Hebei is a newly recovered area, in order to ensure the safety of the apprentices, Wenyi specially asked the special combat team to bring their own millet armor, and the number of special combat personnel has also increased from 10 to 30.

Xiao Ruoyu and Li Tai never took their eyes off after seeing the Xiaomi battle armor. All day long, I thought about how to disassemble this suit and study it. Wenyi scolded several times, but it did not affect their concern for the Xiaomi battle armor at all, and finally Wenyi promised to allow them to dismantle the armor and study it when they arrived in the black pine forest, and the two put away their fanatical eyes.

The situation in Hebei is not as good as Shandong, the men in Hebei are almost dead, only women and children can be seen in every household, and the elderly are rare, and literature and art are estimated to have died in the war. Although the people of Shandong are poor, their eyes are still full of yearning for life. But the eyes of the people of Hebei are mostly dead and silent, as if they have despaired of the future.

The three little ghosts cried and cried and pulled Wenyi to ask him to find a way to help the people, Wenyi said helplessly: "It's difficult, we can't help them at all, we still have to rely on the power of the government." It's just that we are now soft-spoken and weak, and we can't do anything if we want to help. I'm taking you out just to let you take a good look at the current Datang There are still a lot of messes to clean up, this is a long-term problem, whether they can live and work in peace and contentment depends on your ability. ”

Leaving the sad Hebei, the master and apprentice came to the black pine forest located west of Jincheng, Shanxi!

As soon as you reach the black pine forest, you will see a wide road leading into the depths of the black pine forest, as if the black pine forest has been cut in half.

In front of the road is a small town, and a huge stone monument at the entrance of the town reads "Black Pine Forest Service Area". There is a four-storey cement building in front of the town, and a huge plaque reads "Black Pine Forest Expressway Management Co., Ltd." The whole town is lined with shops, bustling and lively, and all kinds of cries are endless, compared with the dead and silent Hebei, it is completely two worlds. The mood of the master and apprentice also improved. Wenyi walked into the company loudly, opened his throat and shouted: "Call your manager out!" ”

The hall was quiet, and everyone looked at literature and art like fools and thought: Another fool, don't you know that this company is covered by Shan Erye? Dare to be arrogant here, and don't know whether to live or die!

Just when everyone was secretly wondering what kind of posture this guy would be thrown out, a man in a straight suit walked down from the second floor, and when he saw Wenyi, he immediately put on a dog-legged appearance and nodded and said, "It turned out to be Director Wen, please come inside." ”

Wenyi patted him on the shoulder with satisfaction and said, "Li Dasheng, I haven't seen him for a few days, I'm glad to be a manager!" We're going back to the village now, and you go and get ready. ”
