"Wei Xianggong, what do you think?" At this time when there are many discussions, Li Zhongyi naturally cannot let go of Wei Renpu, who has been silent.

None of the cabinets can agree on the same opinion, let alone the doctors of the whole world? Therefore, Li Zhongyi must find out Wei Renpu's true thoughts and attitudes.

Wei Renpu was named by Li Zhongyi, even if he was reluctant, he had to express his position in person.

"Lord, the old minister thinks that the territory, land and population of Fang Jinxia have not yet recovered to the strong Han Dynasty, and it is better to slowly plan it than to force the feudal towns in the world too tightly?" Wei Renpu is also a typical representative of the rule of inaction, which is also in line with Li Zhongyi's consistent view of him.

Wei Renpu deliberately cited the example of a strong Han, during the Han and Han dynasties, the imperial court believed in the Huang Lao doctrine, emphasizing the rule of inaction, resting with the people, and then enriching the country and strengthening the army, Weijia Hainei.

Li Zhongyi nodded slightly, Wei Xianggong is indeed the words of Lao Cheng to seek the country, but this is just a non-toss standing on the logic of traditional rule, it is a disguised exhortation, and tactfully asked Li Zhongyi to focus on stabilizing the overall situation of the country.

Li Qiong saw that Li Zhongyi's eyes were focused on him, he couldn't help but sigh secretly, stretched out his head and was stabbed, but he shrank his head or was stabbed, and it was impossible to escape.

Since there is no escape, there is no way to avoid it, Li Qiong can only focus on her position, regardless of whether the concept of governing the country is in line with it, her ass must not sit crookedly.

People in officialdom, even if they don't have the ability, as long as they stand in the right team, they can soar and soar!

"Lord, the old minister thinks that the main reason for the demise of the Eastern Han Dynasty is that it did not restrain the powerful, powerful and gate valves, and allowed it to expand and develop unscrupulously. In the end, the Yellow Turban thieves suddenly got into trouble, the strength of the court was greatly reduced, the prestige was greatly reduced, and the heroes and powers from all walks of life were cheapened in vain. Although Li Qiong said it very tactfully, what she meant in her bones was to support Li Zhongyi's position of suppressing the powerful.

Kong Kun's opinion has already been said, and the position of the four ministers of the cabinet is two against two, and it is obvious that the decision is back in the hands of Li Zhongyi.

"The reason why the tyrannical Qin died II is mainly because he fought a series of wars and wantonly conscription, and did not rest with the people, which led to the withering of the people's aunt's economy. Before I entered Kaifeng, the common people in the Pinglu area all had fields to plant, houses to live in, and the field tax was only 20 taxes at most, and there were cattle to borrow during the busy farming season. When the peasants are slack, the county levies and distributes conscription, organizes and mobilizes the common people to build water conservancy, build bridges and pave roads, and not only manage food, but even have wages to get. Li Zhongyi said this, paused deliberately, and then said, "Both Muramasa and Tingzheng have played a very good role. ”

Li Zhongyi said very implicitly, but the cabinet ministers present all knew that in the world of the Li family, there was no rule that the imperial power should not be lower than the county.

In other words, under the strict organization and control of the grassroots, there is no room for the survival and development of the yellow turban thieves in the rural areas of various places.

In the past, Li Zhongyi considered the need to stabilize the feudal towns in the world, and after entering Kaifeng City, he did not immediately send troops to control the situation.

However, Li Yun and Li Chongjin colluded with the Southern Tang, Later Shu, Northern Han and Khitan people to openly rebel, which gave Li Zhongyi an excellent reason and opportunity to send troops to fight.

The ministers of the cabinet have every reason to believe that Li Jiajun will definitely put down the rebellion while grasping the actual control of various places along the way.

The wider the actual control of the imperial court, the heavier the weight of the cabinet's words, and the prime minister was naturally optimistic about this.

It's just that the village and pavilion systems vigorously promoted by Li Zhongyi also mean that the vast rural areas that were originally far away from the emperor are no longer the former places outside the country, but the soldiers and financial resources actually controlled by the imperial court.

There is soil and wealth, this is already the old yellow calendar, and Li Zhongyi updated it to have land and wealth.

No matter how wide the field is, where will there be no source of money if there is no one to cultivate it?

"Lord, you must not be too harsh on the scholars, after all, the court depends on them to govern the place." Seeing that the situation was not good, Kong Kun hurriedly explained first, "It is the established national policy of all dynasties to treat scholars well and reuse them. ”

Li Zhongyi waved his hand and said with a smile: "I will naturally treat scholars well, for example, most of the seven, eight or nine sesame petty officials in Beijing can't afford to buy a house in Kaifeng, so they can only rent a house to live in." I plan to rebuild the dozens of princes' houses that have been confiscated, and then rent them out at a very low cost. ”

After Liu Jinshan heard this, he thought about it a little, and couldn't help clapping his hands and exclaiming: "It's not easy to live in Kaifeng!" After all, the rich and powerful scholars and doctors are in the minority, and the majority of middle- and lower-level officials have to take care of their lives without losing their official status, and their incomes are still very meager. ”

"Lord, you often say that you are a good man. The old minister was worried that these low-level officials were accustomed to plucking the feathers of geese, not only taking the high salaries of the imperial court, but also continuing to be greedy for their money. ”

Wei Renpu was worried that he would offend the entire scholar class and that he would harm his children and grandchildren in the future, so he didn't support Li Zhongyi just now, and he was secretly afraid. Now, now that the opportunity has come, Wei Renpu naturally wants to change his evil ways and return to the right, and greatly supports Li Zhongyi's views.

Li Zhongyi saw Wei Xianggong's positive statement, and couldn't help but slightly curl the corners of his mouth, he was not a faithful believer in dissenting opinions, it was purely a fool's trick to reduce the efficiency of cabinet implementation.

What power needs most is balance, and one party cannot be dominant, which is the way to long-term peace and stability!

Keeping Wei Renpu and Kong Kun in the cabinet, Li Zhongyi's main purpose is to listen to it in the dark, and listen to it in the dark!

Proper centralization of power, but also appropriate decentralization, how to control the proportion, depends on the level of the ruler!

Li Zhongyi's approach is actually not complicated, the rules are set in advance, it should be the authority of the cabinet, he just asked. Matters that should not be approved by the Cabinet must be reported to his desk and decided by him personally.

As a leader, there are three main tasks: recognizing people, delegating and supervising. You have to take care of everything, in addition to exhausting yourself to death, most of what you do is useless!

Compared with the workaholic Zhu Chongba, Li Zhongyi is the soul of modern people after all, he must work hard and enjoy life, and the combination of work and rest is the right way in the world!

Li Qiong nodded secretly, Li Zhongyi was not the kind of reckless Leng Touqing, he suppressed the privileges of the gate lords and the powerful, and at the same time showed favor to the middle and lower level scholars.

With such a division and disintegration, even if the top magnates are extremely dissatisfied, and the middle and lower level scholars and doctors have gained a lot of benefits, it is difficult to be incited to make trouble.

Although Li Qiong doesn't talk much and manage things in the cabinet, he has been watching Li Zhongyi's actions coldly, after such a period of observation, he finally suddenly realized: Li Zhongyi doesn't want to be a so-called saint at all, beauty and wealth must be there, but he really wants to be rich and poor!

Where are the saints in this world? Li Qiong has lived so much at such an age, he has never seen a person who has no selfish thoughts and is dedicated to the common people in the world.

After unifying the opinions of the cabinet, Li Zhongyi didn't have to worry about anything, and the elites whose interests were seriously damaged went with them.

With no soldiers at hand, can he scold Li Zhongyi to death just by his mouth?
