As we talked, everyone gradually showed great interest in Cui Jijian's suggestion.

You must know that this team was carefully selected by Han Yi.

Cui Jijian, Changsun Yan, Wang Xuandao, Zheng Shanxing They were originally more special, they did not have the Confucian idea of monarchs and ministers, they had a stronger aristocratic temperament, in the era of the Northern and Southern Dynasties, the nobles often changed dynasties, they did not have the idea of loyalty to the emperor, they cared more about the ambition in their hearts, in fact, the seven sons of Chang'an are all like this, Yuan Liehu just likes to charge into battle, the commander is unwilling to be, Dugu Wuyue is born handsome, but he is for the glory of Dugu's family, and Lu Shigua is resigned three times, It doesn't matter if Zheng Shanxing is an official or not.

Di Renjie was mixed with Han Yi at the beginning, and he was more or less influenced by Han Yi, and he was no longer respected by Confucianism.

Of course, Qi Bi He Li is absolutely loyal to Li Tang, he was crying and shouting to go to Li Shimin's funeral, but his thinking is slowly changing, he can't ask to guarantee only the interests of the emperor, but also to ensure the rights and interests of their ministers, but the emperor can't kill when he says it, this is because Qi Qi He Li is not young, and he has to take care of his children and grandchildren.

Fang Xuanling is so good, but after he died, the Fang family was immediately sent to the eighteenth layer of hell.

It's scary.

They can only be guaranteed for a while, but the system can be guaranteed for a long time, and eternity is of course false.

What's even more interesting is that when they established Wu Meiniang's premise, they were very open to everything, because no matter how they restricted Wu Meiniang, it was okay, and the more they restricted, the more loyal they were to Li Tang, which made them feel much better.

So on the other hand, they are more supportive of Wu Meiniang to continue to preside over government affairs.

If Li Hong ascended the throne immediately, then it would be a big rebellion for them to talk about these things.

Will the Emperor be able to promise them?

Impossible, this will only cause greater disputes.

This is also the reason why Han Yi chose Wu Meiniang, because the early Tang Dynasty was not a corrupt court, and most of the ministers were still loyal to Li Tang and restricted Li Tang, many people would not agree, and it was not reasonable, but to restrict Wu Meiniang, everyone would not have these concerns.

Of course, the most important thing is that Wu Meiniang is super capable and has a great desire for power.

There was a heated discussion about this new framework.

In fact, Han Yi only gave a framework, and he didn't say the specific details, because he didn't have this ability, he would only be fur, and how to get it would have to rely on Cui Ji to cut them.

And then again, what Cui Jijian lacks is this framework, and with this framework, they immediately have thoughts like springs.

After several days of discussion, a new set of bills was finally designed for Wu Meiniang.

And the core of this new system is the Menxia Province, in fact, the functions and powers of the Menxia Province were originally responsible for reviewing the emperor's decrees, and they could not pass the emperor's decrees, but later the emperor made out the political affairs hall and used the three products of the same Zhongshu Menxia to empty the three provinces, and the new system is to revitalize the functions and powers of the Menxia Province.

In the end, it was decided that 100 people would form the province of Menxia, with 40 local deputies and 60 elite classes, although the local deputies were not elected immediately, but should be postponed for two or three years, and this time only 60 elite deputies were elected first, but judging from this ratio, it is still necessary to continue to implement the concept of elite governance, as for democracy, it should not be a man-made phenomenon, if democracy is to be formed, it should be naturally formed.

And the standard of this elite is to require some successful people in the society who have both ability and political integrity to compose, such as Zhuge Kongming, that kind of person can never be selected, he lies in Longzhong every day, and has no contribution to the country, no matter how big this fame is, it is in vain, this is to avoid those nerds and stubborn scholars to enter the province of Menxia, just shouting or not working, what usually talk about the heart, and report to the king when he dies, death generally can't solve any problems, there must be successful deeds in this resume.

And this ability and political integrity show that there can be no big stains in life, in the big right and wrong, can not make mistakes, which excludes most businessmen, Qian Dafang They are very rich, very successful, and have contributed to the country, but they are not good in terms of virtue.

What is virtue is not the thought of Confucianism and Taoism?

This is tantamount to maintaining the traditional thinking that has always been in the Central Plains.

In the end, only people such as Zheng Shanxing, Lu Shigua, and Wang Yuntu were able to enter Menxia Province, and Lu Shigua was also a merchant and a doctor, but they were also educated by Confucianism.

This is to ensure the interests of Zhang Wenguan and Murong Baojie.

In addition, among the sixty elites, there are ten women's places, since Wu Meiniang is in power, how can she give women a seat, it is not good for her to be a woman.

Of course, Han Yi brought it up, and he had to make his wife happy.

But such a combination proves that Menxia Province does not have any administrative ability, and these elites do not receive salaries, because everyone under this standard will not be short of money, that is to say, they must mainly have a sense of national responsibility to be able to enter Menxia Province, they are usually just a fart people, doing their own business, and they come to the meeting to discuss when they have a meeting.

Those local representatives can get a salary, because they are based in Chang'an, but the local government is responsible for their expenses, if you don't want to spend this money, you can also choose not to send it, but everyone will definitely send it, so many people support one person, and it is enough for one person to pay an extra penny.

This administrative power is still in the hands of Wu Meiniang, and the real role of Menxia Province is actually to protect the tax system and the legal system, and if taxes are raised, they must be approved by Menxia Province, and at the same time ensure that no one can interfere with the judiciary.

The judicial system is composed of the Criminal Department, the Imperial Historical Observatory, and the Dali Temple, the Criminal Department is the legislation, but the legislation also has to be reviewed by the Ministry of Men and the Queen, the Imperial Historical Observatory is the regulatory department, the Dali Temple is the trial, and the Civil Security Bureau is also independent, but in fact, it is still under the Dali Temple system.

But the appointment of the heads of these three departments is different from the commander-in-chief, the commander-in-chief is directly appointed by the queen, and the parliament is only responsible for military affairs, that is, to distribute money, and the petty generals who manage the army, but these three chiefs are nominated by the province, but they also need the queen's approval, and if the commander-in-chief, the queen can be replaced, and the three leaders, once they take office, neither side has the right to remove them, unless they break the law or die of illness.

That is, after the head of justice takes office, he can not look at anyone's face, the reason is very simple, if you give me this job, I don't have to listen to you, I am ungrateful, but if you can still take this job away, then I have to listen to you, if I listen to you and do something illegal, I may lose my job, then of course I will not listen to you.

When talking about this topic, Changsun Yan is very excited, this is his dream, an independent and authoritative legal country, he is not advocating heavy criminal law, which is different from the traditional rule of law thought, or combines some Confucian thoughts.

But to the eldest grandson Yan regretted, in the end only gave Wu Meiniang a ten-year term, ten years later, must be returned to the prince, as for whether this system is abolished or not, there is such a sentence in it, the regime must be returned to the prince, this country must have a monarch, this is just a special period, as for whether this system is abolished or not, it will be decided by the monarch in the future, but there is a premise, that is, to ensure that everyone is not subject to political reprisals, if it cannot be guaranteed, then it cannot be abolished.

That is, we will talk about it then.

There is also a reason for this, we set this rule today, just to protect this country, but in the end, we still let you postpone the throne for ten years, and you can't retaliate against us.

The first clause of the Act stipulates that the eldest son of the Empress shall be the sole legal heir, unless he is willing to give it up or is completely physically unable to handle government affairs. But as long as you make sure that the five functions are sound, the head is not broken, you can sit up, you are not blind, you can speak, you can hear, then you can do it, you can't walk, it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter if you can't write, you can let someone else do these things.

Because Li Hong's body is criticized, but you can't always use this excuse to delay Li Hong's accession to the throne, this law is to block the mouth of the people, it doesn't matter if this physique is weak, as long as these five conditions are met, if it can't be met, then postponement, the second prince, the third prince, after all, the royal cannibalism will inevitably affect the ministers, especially in the Tang Dynasty, then simply give this rule to death, and don't think too much about the princes behind.

It also stipulates that the position of Shangshuling must be held by the prince, and as long as the prince is sixteen years old, he will naturally become Shangshuling.

However, Shang Shuling does not have real power, just to train the prince and be familiar with the work of the six departments, because the main thing is still the six departments.

As for the political system of the East Palace, it is not necessary for the time being, this kind of system, the East Palace team cannot exist, because the queen does not control the military power, if the East Palace is not restricted, the queen will not agree.

In fact, in order to avoid the prince having a team, the emperor having a team, and the prince ascending the throne, it is even more a prince and a courtier, of course, the prince will use the courtiers of the East Palace on a large scale, and then start to fight with the old team.

Of course, for now, this is only their plan, and it has to be agreed by all parties.

And first of all, Li Hong's consent should be sought.

This is also the consensus of everyone.

Because the biggest victim of this matter is Li Hong, if he disagrees, then the current system cannot be forced, if he is reluctant, it will become a usurpation of the dynasty.

This heavy responsibility naturally falls on Han Yi again, who made this Han Yi's strength.

East Palace.

"Your Highness, this matter is far more serious than the minister imagined."

Han Yi said to Li Hong with a solemn face: "Our country is splitting, whether it is the DPRK and the Chinese government, or the people, everyone is opposed, and it has reached the point where water and fire are incompatible, unless force is used, otherwise, it is difficult for them to stop." ”

Li Hong said in fear: "Use force? ”

Guo Yu, who was sitting on the side, couldn't help frowning.

Han Yi nodded and said, "If you want to ensure that the crown prince ascends the throne smoothly, then you must dispatch the forbidden army." The ministers have talked to them, and they are constantly sending people to talk to them, but they have never been able to trust each other, and they all think that if they put down their weapons, they will inevitably be slaughtered by others, and the other party will definitely not let them go, and they are resolutely unwilling to back down.

But... But at present, Datang's fate is hanging by a thread, and once a war breaks out in Chang'an, it is very likely that my Datang will be torn apart. Because the places outside the Central Plains have been beaten to the ground, they are like the same hungry wolf, staring at the Central Plains from the side, before the ministers came, they were promised that they would definitely support them, but once the war started, they could not support them, and they were bound to enter the Central Plains to grab food. ”

Li Hong immediately said: "How can this be made." ”

Han Yi said: "But this is the current situation, in fact, the treasury is so weak that it can't fight any war, no matter how small the scale is, especially after losing the support of merchants, if there is a war, you must also tax the people, then the world will be in chaos,"

Li Hong frowned and said, "Is there really no way?" ”

"The minister is powerless, so the minister found some neutral ministers in the court to come up with ideas, that is, Cui Jijian and Di Renjie, they came up with a way, the minister doesn't know for the time being, whether this method can make both sides agree, but the minister thinks, no matter what way we come up with, we must first ask the prince for your nod."

"What's the solution?"

Han Yi immediately took out a piece of music from his briefcase and presented it to Li Hong.

Li Hong took it and immediately looked at it, and suddenly, he frowned and said in surprise: "Let me delay the throne for ten years?" ”

Guo Yu was shocked when he heard this.

Han Yi sighed: "They think that at present, the first thing to do is to protect Li Tang's country first, and the current situation, we must carefully handle every detail, otherwise, the consequences are unimaginable, they think that the crown prince is on the throne at this time, and it is not fair to the prince, because no one dares to guarantee that they can handle everything well, and second, they think that the prince may not have so much energy to deal with these affairs, if the prince works hard, I am afraid that he will be like the first emperor, and his body will not be able to afford it." Third, from the very beginning, the queen was in charge of government affairs, and if the queen's policy could be continued, the effect might be better.

But they didn't support the queen, they still supported the prince, so they also changed the temporary covenant and set up a series of systems to limit the queen's power, block all power in the province of Menxia, ensure that the prince is not harmed, and wait until the prince ascends the throne, and then return it to the prince. ”

Li Hong was silent and looked at it carefully.

Guo Yu said: "Your Highness, can you show the ministers." ”

Li Hong hurriedly handed it to Guo Yu, and asked Han Yi again: "If I am required to do Shang Shu Ling, then Shang Shu Ling will order you?" ”

Han Yi said: "According to what Cui Jijian said, if I continue to serve as Shangshuling, then my power will be too great, and I can destroy the temporary covenant they have changed, so I must be asked to step down from the post of Shangshuling, and I am also willing to serve the prince, but if the prince still needs a minister, the minister will still continue to serve as the secretary of the household department and assist the prince." If you don't need a minister, you can also send a minister home.

The minister hopes that the prince will understand that the minister definitely supports the prince, no matter what decision the prince makes, the minister will support the prince, but before the prince you make a decision, the minister can't express his position, if the minister makes a statement, the two sides will definitely fight, and this is just an alternative, the minister will still do whatever it takes to persuade them to stop fighting and jointly assist the prince. ”

Li Hong nodded slightly, but his face looked hesitant.

After all, this throne is close at hand, and it is cruel for you to make him wait for another ten years!

Guo Yu said suddenly: "Why do you have to set a ten-year deadline? ”

Han Yi sighed: "First of all, no one is sure when they will be able to recover. But the most important thing is that in order to avoid the civil war in the Central Plains, General Qi Bi and I both proposed three years, but Cui Jijian and they both thought that three years would not give Murong Baojie enough security to them, they have now reached the point where water and fire are incompatible, and the people have also been divided, which is difficult to heal in a short period of time, and it will take a long time to make the divided people reintegrate together. Moreover, ten years later, the crown prince is just the year of his establishment, this body and experience are in the heyday, it is the best time to ascend the throne, and the queen's age is just at the age when she should enjoy the blessings of her children and grandchildren. ”

Guo Yu nodded slightly, and then looked at Li Hong.

Li Hong said to Han Yi: "I... I'm going to think about it. ”

Han Yi nodded and said, "But the minister just showed the prince first, and the minister was not sure to convince those people, so whether the prince agreed or not, he had to be prepared to deal with any situation." ”

Li Hong snorted and said, "Thank you Shang Shuling for reminding me." ”

Han Yi said: "If the prince has nothing else to do, the minister will retire first." ”

"Shang Shuling walks slowly."

After Han Yi left, Li Hong asked Guo Yu, "Teacher, what do you think?" ”

Guo Yu struggled for a while, sighed and said: "Shang Shuling is reasonable, now the places outside the Central Plains are already in ruins, where the people are in dire straits, if war breaks out in the Central Plains again, the consequences are unimaginable, it is very likely that the world will be in chaos, Your Highness, your body may not be able to support it, I took a closer look at this new system, it is indeed very exquisitely designed, it can well limit the power of the queen, and even each minister, and can ensure that the power is not concentrated in the hands of any one person, It can be seen that they have indeed tried their best to ensure that the crown prince can successfully ascend the throne in the future, but this requires you to wait for another ten years, and it is up to the prince to make your own decision. ”

Li Hong pondered for a while, and suddenly said, "Teacher, in fact, I don't have a choice at all, do I?" If the country is dead, then what is the point of not being the emperor? Moreover, it will only devastate the lives of the world. ”

Guo Yu frowned tightly and stroked his beard silently.
