The dispute in the main hall disappeared in an instant, and everyone looked at Gao Shilian, who had been silent all the time.

As the right servant of Shangshu and the secretary of the ministry, his words are extremely weighty, but Gao Shilian is naturally close to the Guanlong Group because of the eldest grandson Wuji, and the interests of both sides are one, so he is naturally inclined to oppose it.

However, just when everyone thought that Gao Shilian would object, Gao Shilian said slowly: "You are arguing...... But why didn't he even think about what Fang Shilang's original intention was when he proposed this bill? ”

There was silence in the hall.

The ministers of civil and military affairs, who had just been arguing endlessly, showed surprise on their faces, and then they were all full of shame.

It has to be said that during the founding period of each dynasty, both monarchs and ministers were loyal and upright people who cared about the people. Although they have different political views because of their own interests, and they will fight openly and secretly in private, they will do everything they can, but the bottom line of morality is basically the same, and everyone can seek common ground while reserving differences in the concept of ensuring the stability of the court situation and benefiting the common people in the world, and not just oppose for the sake of opposition!

What was Fang Jun proposing this bill for?

It's to rescue the victims!

In this era of extremely low productivity, both communications and transportation are extremely backward, and natural and man-made disasters are not uncommon, such as floods, droughts, locust plagues, epidemics, earthquakes, and ...... Every disaster means that hundreds of people are displaced or even die!

How to evaluate whether an empire is strong and whether an era is prosperous?

In ancient times, there was only one criterion, and that was population!

This standard seems simple and crude, right?

And so it is!

With more people, more land can be cultivated, more food can be produced, more armies can be raised, and more enemies can be defeated!

Conversely, only an empire that is strong and prosperous, with more land and more food, can feed a larger population!

Therefore, there is only one condition for judging the so-called prosperous era in the history books - which era has a large population, which era is prosperous!

His Majesty Li Er was very satisfied with the reaction of the ministers, and since they all realized the mistakes, he naturally would not be harsh. The ministers are also human beings, they all have three aunts, six relatives and new friends, and they all live in circles, and it is inevitable to pursue interests.

He never thought there was anything wrong with ministers competing for interests, as long as there was a bottom line of moral restraint on top of interests, that would be fine.

However, the eldest grandson Wuji doesn't think so......

When Gao Shilian said such a sentence, he was shocked in his heart, and looked at Gao Shilian's light face in disbelief!

What was Fang Jun's original intention?

It's to rescue the victims!

This is righteousness!

Since Gao Shilian raised such a question at this time, it is obvious that he is completely inclined to the implementation of Fang Jun's proposal......

But that's not right!

The Guanlong Group has a deep influence in the army, and almost half of the middle and lower-level officers are from the Guanlong Group. These officers from the Guanlong group have made great contributions to His Majesty Li Er's struggle for hegemony and are the cornerstone of His Majesty Li Er's imperial power.

But it is precisely because the foundation of the Guanlong Group in the army is too deep that His Majesty Li Er has always wanted to weaken the strength of the Guanlong Group......

And what is the basis for Gao Shilian to get to where he is today?

Of course, there are his own shrewd and capable factors, but more of them are from the addition of Guanlong Group!

Without Empress Wende, without his eldest grandson Wuji, and without the full help of the Guanlong Group, why was he Gao Shilian the closest and most influential adviser to His Majesty Li Er for decades?

Do you rely on the Bohai Gao?

Hehe......

However, now, Gao Shilian has reversed himself and agreed with Fang Jun's proposal called disaster relief, but in fact, the dispersion of military power has shaken the foundation of the Guanlong Group!

Why?

It's okay for Guanlong Group to abandon Gao Shilian, but how can Gao Shilian turn against Guanlong Group?

The eldest grandson Wuji was full of incomprehension, and wanted to work hard to find some clues from Gao Shilian's expression, but he stared at Gao Shilian for a long time, but he gained nothing.

They are all old and sophisticated, how can they expose their hearts?

And Xiao Yu pressed the last straw on the camel......

"Your Majesty, Weichen thinks that this bill is really a clever strategy!"

Xiao Yu, who had never spoken, followed closely after Gao Shilian's statement and talked eloquently: "Meng Ziyun: Those who win the hearts of the people win the world!" "Xunzi Imperial System" also says, "The monarch, the boat also; Those who are familiar with the people, the water is also. The water will carry the boat, and the water will overturn the boat', which shows the importance of the people's heart. No matter how many victims can be rescued, just seeing the army sent by His Majesty at a time when the victims are suffering from a catastrophe that makes the heavens and the earth unspiritual, that kind of spiritual comfort and spiritual impact on all the people are enough to make His Majesty return to his heart. As long as the people want, why worry that Your Majesty can't achieve the hegemony of the ages, and why worry that the Tang Dynasty can't last forever? ”

This is Xiao Yu's cleverness, every word is derived from ancient teachings, from the bottom of the heart, and reasonable, but it can scratch the itch of His Majesty Li Er......

What does His Majesty Li Er care about the most?

Fame!

As long as the people of the world praise him for his goodness, why be afraid of the slightest potential trouble?

Besides, he has always trusted the civil and military ministers under his opponent, and it is not enough to have one Hou Junji, can there be a second one?

No way!

At this time, the wind direction has completely changed to the side in favor, His Majesty Li Er glanced at the few ministers from the Guanlong Group who were still insisting on opposition, his face was expressionless, and he made a decision directly: "Since this is the case, this law will be tried for the time being, after all, the stakes are important and it is an unprecedented measure, which will inevitably have omissions, and gradually become dinner in the trial, thinking that the system that will not be easy in later generations will make the people of the world all grateful to the court, and the people's hearts will be attached, and they will be united!" ”

The emperor made a decision, and also said that it was a "trial trial", and the eldest grandson Wuji did not dare to continue to oppose it.

This matter is a foregone conclusion, so he can't continue to entangle, otherwise it will only make his fewer and fewer "holy dependents" gradually wither......

Since Gao Shilian is the first to counter the water, then his next plan can be carried out without psychological pressure.

The eldest grandson Wuji is naturally full of gratitude to Gao Shilian's uncle, but now that the interests of the eldest grandson's family are involved, and even the interests of the entire Guanlong Group, family affection and gratitude can only be put aside.

If there is no distinction between public and private, how can you be a qualified politician who has dominated the court for so many years?

The eldest grandson Wuji took advantage of everyone's inattention and gave Li Zhi, the king of Jin, a vague look......

His Majesty Li Er, who was on the throne, waved his hand and ordered the chamberlain to offer tea and cakes to the ministers, and said with a happy expression: "What is still the matter, let's talk about it slowly, first drink saliva and eat a few pieces of dim sum to pad the stomach, and then I will set up a banquet in the palace and get drunk with you!" ”

His Majesty Li Er likes to "have fun with the people" the most, and often drinks and frolicks with these civil and military generals, and sometimes he will dance when he drinks too much...... Therefore, the ministers are accustomed to it, and they have just quarreled with their mouths and drink some tea to moisten their throats, so as not to shout when there is a dispute later......

The atmosphere of mutual intransigence, which was still tense just now, has eased again.

Speaking of which, everyone's contradictions are for the interests of their respective camps, and although they will never regress during the period, they have no personal grievances, and they can't get along with each other in a-for-tat relationship.

However, there are exceptions......

Li Zhi, the king of Jin, took a sip of tea absentmindedly, looked up and saw that his uncle was giving him a look again, and he was really helpless, but he didn't dare to disobey his uncle, so he had to bite the bullet and say: "Father, my son has something to say." ”

"Oh? Hehe, the first time you participated in politics, you have your own political opinions, it's really rare, look at the prince brother next to you, like a gourd with a mouth, he is silent. ”

His Majesty Li Er smiled, seemingly encouraging and praising this little Jiu'er, but in fact, he didn't think so.

As he said, Li Zhi is not only young, but also a shallow learner, and it is the first time to participate in the discussion of politics, so he should naturally keep a low profile and study more, and not express his political opinions lightly. And the prince's performance is good, listen more, watch more, learn more, talk less, this is what the prince should do.

Two words - duty......

However, he loves Li Zhi, although he is dissatisfied, he can't bear to be harsh, just knocking a sentence lightly.

Thinking about it, the eldest grandson Wuji would naturally teach him carefully......

Although Li Zhi is young, he is quite clever, and he also heard the wrong words of his father, but at this moment, he can only pretend to be confused, and say stubbornly: "Father Mingjian, now the rumors about Sister Changle and Fang Shilang are boiling and unstoppable among the Fang City, which has caused extremely serious damage to the reputation of my Li family and the majesty of the royal family!" Therefore, Erchen thought that he should make every effort to thoroughly investigate whether there was any noise and incitement behind it, and he must completely suppress this rumor! ”

As soon as the words came out, His Majesty Li Er was stunned, why is this kid concerned about this matter?

However, after thinking about it carefully, he felt that it should be that the young slave had loved his sister Changle since he was a child, and at this time, he saw that Changle's reputation was damaged, so he was depressed and angry, so he brought this unwaiting thing to the court meeting.

However, he didn't know what kind of waves such a small thing "not on the stage" would set off......
