Chapter 1860: Changing Law Syndrome
Although Li Zhi did not nod his head in the end and let the new deal pass, but asked Han Yi and them to discuss with the prince, but the prince is so young and has such a big matter, how can he have the ability to judge, and he can only follow Han Yi's advice, that is to say, Li Zhi has agreed to promulgate the new policy, but he wants to use the new policy to establish some authority for the prince.
At the same time, he is also avoiding the risks that come with changing the law, which has been very sensitive since ancient times, and nine times out of ten it will end in failure. Han Yi has done so many things, but it is for this change, he was hiding before, and all his policies do not mention changing the law, because as long as it changes, nine out of ten will hurt those with vested interests, and no one's change is nine out of ten, and neither is Li Zhi.
Li Zhi did not make this decision, but let the prince make this decision, obviously to leave room for himself, Empress Wu's new policy has just caused a crisis, and the new policy also has the possibility of failure, if it fails, it can all be pushed down on the prince's body, and the prince is young, he can't afford to carry this pot, and people won't blame the prince, so in the end it still falls on these cardinal ministers.
This is also Li Zhi's consistent style of acting, he lacks Li Shimin's courage, if he wants to reform, he will make drastic moves, and make decisions immediately, but this is not his weakness, he has his own routine, that is, he has to do things, but the pot is resolutely not back, in this regard, he has always done very skillfully, can use his strength to fight, he can always put himself in the position of a victim, from the dispute to now, everything he wants to get, he has gotten everything, but you have to say what mistakes he made, what bad things he did, I can't find it at all, the good ones are his, and the bad ones are someone else's.
The queen's new policy is obviously what he nodded, but everyone hates Wu Meiniang, Li Yifu, and Xu Jingzong, and he is just a victim.
Even if it is recorded in the history books, what is Li Zhi most criticized is that he has a weak personality and has made Wu Meiniang, and he is scolded by Wu Meiniang, but in fact, Wu Meiniang can't blame him for ascending the throne, that is hindsight, no one would have thought that his wife would be the emperor, during his reign, it was Wenzhi martial arts, and he couldn't find anything wrong at all, and Wu Meiniang was also very jealous of him.
Of course, Han Yi is like a mirror, he also admires Li Zhi, he is so shrewd, he is sick like this, he can be regarded as so shrewd, but he is willing to bear all the consequences, this matter was provoked by him, and now it is on the bow and has to be sent.
On the same day, Li Zhi immediately crowned Han Yi, Zhang Wenguan, Liu Xiangdao, Cui Jijian, Wang Xuandao, Lu Shigua, Zheng Shanxing, Di Renjie, Ren Zhigu and other important ministers as officials of the East Palace.
This is also a very clear signal, and it once again proves that Li Zhi is not sick and confused, he still thinks about things very thoroughly, he just wants to use this to state that Lao Tzu is not on his deathbed, don't misunderstand you ministers, I really want to experience the prince.
Because the East Palace originally had a complete set of political systems in the East Palace, it basically imitated the three provinces and six ministries of the imperial court, which was very perfect. Now Li Zhi wants to let the crown prince supervise the regent of the country, if the two sets of teams are not combined into one, then I don't know who has the final say, Li Hong must be handling government affairs in the East Palace, then it should be the officials of the East Palace in power.
And Li Zhi is just sick, he is not going to be mourned, when he is sick, he still has to come out to be the emperor, it is impossible for him to give way before his death, in case he recovers in the future, then his position is very embarrassing, the emperor is the most difficult profession in the world, the emperor can only be placed under house arrest, otherwise, if the emperor comes out to say something, then the whole court will be in chaos, this is not an exaggeration, because the minister does not know whether to listen to the emperor or listen to the emperor, therefore, very few emperors abdicate during their lifetime, It's not exactly an obsession with power, it's inherently very difficult to operate.
By combining two sets of teams into one, you can solve these problems.
Han Yi They must belong to Li Zhi's courtiers, unlike the officials of the East Palace, they were just ordered to assist the prince to supervise the regent, that's all, this power is still in Li Zhi's hands.
After this arrangement, the East Palace temporarily replaced the Liangyi Palace.
Han Yi and these important ministers went to the East Palace to propose to the prince to promulgate a new policy.
Originally, everyone thought that it was just a process in the East Palace, but they didn't expect that after listening to their exposition of the regulations of the new policy, Li Hong's little face showed a little dissatisfaction, he was so young, how could he know how to hide it.
Everyone knew that he was dissatisfied, but they didn't know the temperament of this little master, and they didn't dare to speak, and the atmosphere was a little awkward for a while.
In the end, it was Han Yi who stood up and asked: "If His Highness has any dissatisfaction with the new policy, you can bring it up, and it is better to raise it now than to have problems in the future." "I also wonder in my heart, at such a young age, can you really understand this new deal?
Li Hongxiao frowned, and said quite seriously: "I don't have any dissatisfaction, I just think that this new deal is not perfect enough." ”
Li Ji saw that although Li Hong was young, he looked like him, and he was very relieved, and asked, "What does Your Highness think is not perfect enough?" ”
Li Hongdao: "Last time, when we were discussing how to deal with Li Yifu, we discussed the disadvantages of this method of joint sitting, but the new policy did not involve improvements in this regard. ”
Zhang Wenguan immediately said: "Your Highness, this method of sitting together is intended to deter, if there is no law of sitting together, then officials will intensify their efforts and use their relatives to do that illegal thing, which will breed more corruption problems, and it is difficult to verify, although this law of sitting together is unfair, but it cannot be abolished rashly, and it has to be done gradually." ”
Li Hongdao: "But this person's life is at stake, even if it can't be abolished, it should be improved." ”
Han Yi asked, "Then I don't know what the prince suggests?" ”
Li Hong thought for a while, and suddenly said: "I often hear the teacher say that if those soldiers desert or fail to report to the army on time, their families will also suffer the crime of joint sitting, and they will be assigned and filled as officials, but I think not every soldier deliberately wants to desert, there are many hidden secrets, and this will only hurt many innocent soldiers, so I think we can start with the army first, and slowly reduce this method of joint sitting, and first exempt the family members who are subject to the law of joint sitting." ”
Li Ji laughed when he heard this: "Your Highness is so old, he has benevolence and righteousness, and he is talented, this is really my blessing of the Tang Dynasty!" ”
Li Hong was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly said, "Does Sikong also agree with what I said?" ”
Li Ji nodded again and again: "Agree, agree, the old minister is very supportive of His Highness's proposal." ”
Cui Jijian, Changsun Yan, and Di Renjie also expressed their support.
Li Hong couldn't help but be very excited when he saw that everyone supported him, so he said: "Another point is that in this crisis, many people are innocent, but because of this, they have been displaced, have no fixed place, and even lose their lives, and some policies to help the people should also be added to this new policy." ”
When negotiating the new policy, he felt these two points the most, as for what stamp duty, he really didn't know much, and he was not very interested.
Han Yi said: "Your Highness, the imperial court really wants to help the people, but now the imperial court's finances are very difficult, and even more so locally, if this policy is promulgated now, the imperial court will not be able to do it, which will only make the people feel that the imperial court is deceiving them, but His Royal Highness's proposal is very good, but this has to wait until the finances are recovered, and then we have the ability to consider these." ”
"That's just as well." Li Hong nodded and said, "Then I don't have any opinions." ”
This last sentence revealed the nature of his child, which made these important ministers cry and laugh, is this considered a pass?
That can only be considered passed!
After coming out of the East Palace, Han Yi and Cui Jijian came to Shangshu Province.
"I know that everyone is very tired during this period, and now that it is time for a good harvest, I hope that everyone will persevere a little longer, and when the new policy is fully implemented, we can have a good rest." After Han Yi finished speaking, he saw that there was no excitement or happiness on their faces, but instead they looked a little uneasy, and couldn't help laughing: "What's the matter?" I see how you look like you're going to the execution ground tomorrow? ”
Wang Xuandao didn't answer and asked, "Isn't Shang Shuling a little uneasy in his heart?" ”
Han Yi asked, "Why do you want to?" ”
Wang Xuandao said: "Since ancient times, few of these law changers have had a good end, and whenever they change the law, it will always lead to a fight. However, our change has become the foundation of my Tang Dynasty, and I do not hide the book order, although I am full of expectations for the new deal, but I am not sure about the outcome of the new deal. ”
The rest of the group nodded their heads as well.
This new policy will hurt the interests of many people, although in the process of revision, there is not much obstacle, but after the promulgation, it is not known. Before they passed, everyone wanted to pass it early, but after they passed, they felt a little scared in their hearts.
Han Yi smiled: "Actually, as long as we maintain a mentality, then nothing is a problem." ”
"What mentality?"
"If you are good, you will help the world, and if you are poor, you will be good alone."
Han Yi continued: "Everything we do is for the country, for the people, not for ourselves, then there is nothing to be good about, this plan is in the people, the success is in the sky, even if we fail, we can be worthy of our hearts." But I think it is impossible to fail, because the time, place, and people are all on our side, and the New Deal will definitely succeed. ”
It's a light thing to say, but whoever can sleep soundly, if something goes wrong, they are all to blame!
Tonight they are destined to lose sleep.
Of course, Han Yi is definitely an exception, Han Yi hugged Xiao Wuyi, not to mention how well she slept soundly, even Xiao Wuyi felt incredible, although she ignored it, but she was still very worried in her heart, because the new law is not promulgated, and people are not easy to object, you have to promulgate it first, and those people can find loopholes to deal with you.
But no matter what, this arrow is on the bow and has to be sent, and after getting the nods of Li Zhi and Li Hong, the new policy is finally promulgated!
