Li Ze sat at the table, drinking porridge while looking at the supplement of the Datang Weekly that had just come out today. Since this period of time, Datang Weekly has printed a supplement every day, which is specially used to introduce the relevant content of Yixing Society, and at the same time, it will also vigorously introduce the representatives of Yixing Society who came to Chang'an to participate in this conference.

For the people of the Northland, the Yixing Society has long been integrated into their lives, and almost every place in their lives has the shadow of the Yixing Society.

But for the people of Chang'an, this is a new thing.

As the capital of the empire for a long time, the people here almost all have political acumen beyond ordinary people, and they can always make up a lot of things according to some clues. And, sometimes, their predictions are extremely accurate.

But after Li Ze entered Beijing, many things made these old Chang'an people a little ignorant. They can't guess, they can't see through, and they can't figure it out.

Doesn't it say that gentlemen are not parties?

Isn't it said that the higher-ups are most afraid of forming gangs and factions?

Why did the imperial court that came back from the north openly form a gang?

The Datang Weekly was also secretly popular in the underground of Chang'an in the past, but in the past, there was very little content related to the Yixing Society, and most of it was to promote the policies of the northern land, the decrees of the imperial court, and some anecdotal and extraneous advertisements.

It is the first time that they have openly publicized the purpose and mission of the Yixing Society, how they came into being, how they developed, and what they have done over the years, so that the Yixing Society has officially appeared in front of everyone.

However, as the days went by, the people of Chang'an suddenly understood that these officials and generals from all over the country who came to Chang'an, without exception, were all members of the Yixing Society.

In other words, in this brand-new Tang court, if you want to become a big official, the most basic condition is that you are a member of the Yixing Society.

Of course, it's not that you can become a big official because you are a member of Yixing Society.

Because through the introduction in these supplements, the people of Chang'an found that many people who came to participate in this conference actually had a considerable number of ordinary people.

There was a farmer in it, because he was extremely good at farming, and the yield per mu was much higher than that of others, and he taught his skills to the villagers without reservation, so that the grain production of the surrounding towns and eight miles was greatly improved, so he was selected to become a representative.

There are craftsmen in it, who stand out for inventing something.

There are ordinary soldiers in it, who have been able to get ahead because of their bravery in battle and repeated meritorious deeds.

There are many merchants in it, who have become representatives every year because they pay a lot of taxes to the imperial court, and they pave roads and bridges in the township and do great good deeds.

There are doctors who have saved countless lives

……

In short, the members of the delegations from all over the country can be regarded as diverse, ranging from the governor in charge of a province to the most ordinary ordinary people.

With the step-by-step introduction of the Yixing Society Conference on the top of the supplement, the people of the world also understood that the members of these delegations, whether you are the governor or ordinary people, everyone has one vote, and only one vote.

But this vote will be voted out and elected will be the highest-ranking official in this empire. For the next five years, these men will be tasked with managing this vast empire.

The current Datang, although there is still the south that has not been subdued, but in terms of land area, it is not an exaggeration to describe it as huge.

This makes everyone lose color.

Is there still such a means of operation?

Governing the country is the first thing in personnel. Because the management of the world is composed of one thing at a time, but it is people who do things, and people are also people who are in charge. If you choose the right person, you can do the right thing and make profits for the world. If you choose the wrong person, there is a great possibility that bad things will happen, and then poison the world.

Therefore, how to manage people and how to use people has always been the most important thing in a court, and it is also the most direct means for an emperor to manage the world.

Although Li Ze is not the emperor now, whether it is in the north or in the south, it is clear that this is just a matter of time, as for the one who lives in the palace now, it is just a day by day, when Li Ze will take the throne, it only depends on when he himself is interested.

With the approach of the Yixing Society Conference, with the arrival of delegations from all walks of life one by one, the days of the person here are only numbered.

But is this how the new ruler of the empire will select talents?

Let everyone choose?

What if the person he chooses is not his favorite? Or even the one who is on his side?

This possibility is not impossible.

Chang'an was in an uproar.

The world was also in an uproar.

Not only is the south inexplicable, but even the north, Li Ze's lair, is also tarnished because of this way of choosing officials.

"Li Ze is killing himself!" Those in power in the Federal Republic of the South rejoiced in this.

Because of Li Ze's behavior, it seems to be self-destructive.

"You're not angry?" Seeing that Li Ze had finished drinking the porridge in the bowl, but his eyes were still on the newspaper, scooping it up in his hand for a while, and he didn't catch any rice grains at all, Liu Ruyan took the bowl from his hand and filled another bowl of porridge for him, and at the same time, he also removed the newspaper from Li Ze's eyes.

"Huh?" Li Ze looked up at his wife.

"Just eat, eat, look at Tang'er and Ning'er, they are all damaged by you. Always half-hearted when eating. "Liu Ruyan said strangely.

"Good, good." Li Ze nodded again and again: "You just said that I was angry, why am I angry?" ”

"I know it all, I don't believe you don't know?" Liu Ruyan sat down and said, "There is an undercurrent in Chang'an City, and several delegations have gathered together in the name of friendship, but in fact, they are discussing who to choose to be the chairman of each committee, right?" ”

Li Ze laughed, "Are you talking about the chairman of the Economic Development Committee?" ”

Liu Ruyan nodded: "The affairs of the Economic Development Committee are the most complicated, almost the prime minister in charge of government affairs, the most important one among several committees, and now they are engaged in collusion and want to launch their own candidates, do you really care?" ”

"What is there to care about!" Li Ze shook his head: "They are operating within the rules. If there is one person who can really get everyone to support him, then it can be regarded as a matter of public expectation, and isn't this the original intention of us to let all the members of the delegation who come to this conference be elected by one person and one vote? ”

Liu Ruyan rolled her eyes: "If those governors and generals know how heavy the price of this vote is, I believe it, but those most ordinary representatives, do they really understand?" I don't believe it. They weren't the heads of their delegation. ”

"I don't understand it now, but after the first time, they will naturally understand how precious this ticket is!" Li Ze smiled: "It takes a little time for people to accept anything new!" ”

"Aren't you afraid of getting out of control?" Liu Ruyan was a little worried.

"Not worried at all." Li Ze shook his head and said, "Qiao'er, you have to understand that managing such a large empire is an extremely complex issue in itself, and everyone's demands are different. Even if everyone's ultimate goal is the same, there is still a considerable gap in the specific means of doing things, or in the perception of things. Since there are differences in cognition and means, contradictions must exist. At this point, it is necessary to unite the majority to solve the problem. If a person can be recognized by the majority of people, then it is very telling in itself. ”

"You can bring everybody's perception back in the same direction." Liu Ruyan was dissatisfied with the authentic.

"Yes, but it's an overdraft of my credit, my prestige." Li Zedao: "It's not because they're convinced, it's just that they're subdued by me, which is meaningless." Besides, I can do it, and in the future, can I do it? ”

Speaking of this, Li Ze reached out and touched his son who was drinking porridge on the side, the little guy is now practicing martial arts in the morning, and practicing literature in the afternoon and evening, and the day's schedule is full, not at all easier than his old son.

Liu Ruyan stopped talking.

It's nothing compared. Li Ze's prestige is slowly accumulated one thing at a time, and one day, Li Tang will ascend to the throne, but he will not have this ability. Li Ze can have today, relying on his own ability, and the most important reason why Li Tang will be on the throne in the future is because he has a good old man.

"If this continues, maybe your son will become an empty shelf in the future." Liu Ruyan said angrily.

"Isn't that right? It's not that hard! Li Ze laughed: "If he has the ability to unite most people, then he has real power, if not, then be a clay bodhisattva, a rubber stamp." Qiao'er, most of the time I am doing this is for the long-term peace and stability of our empire, but to put it mildly, why not for the sake of our Li family's heirs in the future, so that they will not fall from the clouds into the mud like some people at once? ”

"Dad, I can be a person like you in the future." Li Tang raised his head and said very seriously.

"Oh, how do you do that?" Li Ze was interested.

"Two days ago, Uncle Li Hao Li came, he said, when I grow up, there must be no war in China, but overseas, there are endless territories for us to gallop, when the time comes, I will also go to the sea, drive a big ship, and raise my Tang prestige!" Li said.

"Courage is commendable!" Li Ze first praised it, and then said: "However, in this world, it is not possible to subdue it by force alone." Force is just our last resort, it's just deterrence, this thing, if it is really used, its power may not be as great as you think, this question, well, your teacher should tell you slowly. Have you finished eating, let's go and prepare for the morning's martial arts class, is your mother teaching you personally? ”

"It's Li Peng, I can't do it!" Liu Ruyan shook his head.
