The deliberations of the council lasted all day, and the five laws and three policies were decided to be implemented.

During the deliberations, officials from all ministries expressed some opinions and added some views.

Among them, Chen Zhenhui, a tanhua of the Western Wei State last year, proposed to add an article to the assessment of officials, and the governors of each state should pacify the administration of officials as a reference for the evaluation of officials.

In the southeast, the economy is developed and the ideology is active enough, and the rising wealthy class wants to gain more political power after grasping a large amount of wealth.

Therefore, a long time ago, thinkers like Li Zhen appeared in the southeast to speak for the new class.

The civil clique in the southeast, which represents the interests of the southeast, has also been trying to seize control of the imperial court from the emperor.

Before the Song Dynasty, after the reform of Confucianism by Dong Zhongshu, the idea of promoting the divine right of the monarch and the induction of heaven and man is that it is not the king's land under the whole world, and it is not the king's minister who leads the land.

Under this kind of thinking, everyone must obey the imperial power, which caused the imperial power to gradually overwhelm the vassals, and by the time of the Song Dynasty, in order to restrain the emperor and prevent the imperial power from completely overpowering the vassals, the civil officials finally came up with one thing, that is, morality.

The West restricts the royal power, relying on the constitution, believing that "the king is under the law", while after the Song Dynasty, China's new Confucianism believes that "the king is under virtue", and the emperor's rights do not come from heaven, but from his benevolence.

And who has the interpretation of virtue? Naturally, it is the scholar class.

This is also the main ideological basis used by civil officials to fight against the emperor throughout the Ming Dynasty, the emperor and the civil official group, especially in the late Ming Dynasty.

This kind of thinking that relies on morality to restrain people continues to have an impact on China to this day.

In the late Ming Dynasty, civil officials restricted many of the emperor's behaviors through morality, and sought a lot of personal interests for the gentry group.

However, the rising merchant and wealthy class still did not directly hold power, but needed to combine with the gentry, or turn themselves into gentry, in order to gain political power.

Li Yan's strategy of fifth-class citizens allowed Chen Zhenhui, who was influenced by the Taizhou School and Li Zhen's thoughts, to see an opportunity to restrain the government and let the people supervise the administration of officials.

This suggestion was immediately supported by Xinke Jinshi, who was also a Jiangnan person, but Li Yan was worried that the officials would collude with the Shanghu to harm the interests of the poor people in order to satisfy the Shanghu, so he objected.

Gao Yihuan is also very vigilant and has reservations about this, so at present, he only gives the upper household the right to participate in the state and county deliberations, and whether to give other rights in the future will be discussed later.

Now everything is aimed at reunification, and the war of reunification must gather all the human, financial, and material resources of the Western Wei State, Gao Yihuan feels that it is not the time to delegate power.

However, if the Western Wei Dynasty unified the world, the rising merchant and wealthy people would become stronger and stronger, and they would definitely continue to seek channels to express their political demands.

In addition to this episode, the customs officers also proposed two strategies, which were adopted by Gao Yihuan.

One policy is the law of military reduction, which is combined with the four battalion systems of the Western Wei State, stipulating that those who are unqualified in the army will be eliminated to the government soldiers, and those who are not qualified in the government soldiers will be changed to civilian status, and those who have obtained the title or been disabled due to war will no longer enjoy the policy of tax reduction and exemption.

The second policy is to supervise the manufacture of ordnance and further strictly control the manufacture of ordnance and improve the quality of weapons.

In this way, Wei's new national policy has become five laws and five policies, and Gao Yihuan should express his stance and let the cabinet implement it as soon as possible.

If the new policy can be implemented smoothly, Gao Yihuan believes that the strength of Wei will reach a new level.

In the afternoon, the meeting ended, but Gao Yihuan couldn't rest, he hurried to the study and summoned Zhou Ronghua and Sun Nian.

In the room, Gao Yihuan finished reading a recital, it was Liang Yizhang from Sichuan, saying that Niu Jinxing had returned to Chengdu and brought back some news from Sun Kewang.

Sun Kewang defeated Zeng Ying on the banks of the Chishui River, joined Liu Zongmin in Zunyi, and then took advantage of the victory to capture Guiyang.

Niu Jinxing caught up with Sun Kewang in Guiyang, and at that time, the Western Army was in the vanguard and had already turned to Yunnan.

According to Niu Jinxing's observation, after the Western Army entered Guizhou, many soldiers began to flee, and Sun Kewang's situation was not very good.

Therefore, after learning of Niu Jinxing's intention, Sun Kewang immediately expressed his willingness to claim vassal to the Western Wei State, and was willing to exchange Yungui's copper mines and tea in exchange for rice and grain from the Western Wei State.

Gao Yihuan closed it after watching the recital, and through the hollow partition, he saw the two people sitting in the outer hall, so he beckoned, "Let them in!" ”

Zhou Ronghua and Sun Nian, who were sitting on mahogany chairs with half of their buttocks, saw the guards come out to call them, and the two of them hurriedly stood up, tidied up their official robes, straightened their Wusha hats, and walked into the inner hall.

"Minister, meet the king!"

Gao Yihuan smiled slightly, raised his hand and said, "The two Qing families don't need to be polite. Summoning you today, the Lone King has something to ask you. ”

The two stood up, and Zhou Ronghua bowed and said, "If the king needs to ask, the minister knows everything." ”

Gao Yihuan nodded and asked, "In terms of Hetao, what is the situation now, does the Manchu Qing have the intention of withdrawing troops?" ”

As the saying goes, the side of the couch does not allow others to snore, but the Qing army not only slept next to him, but also carried a knife against Gao Yihuan's waist and eyes.

The land of Hetao, just on the back of Guanzhong, where the Qing army is stationed, is equivalent to a sharp knife on the top of Gao Yihuan's head.

If the Wei army went out of Tongguan to attack Henan, or out of Pujin to attack Shanxi, the Qing army in Hetao would be able to move south and attack Guanzhong, so that the Wei army was strategically passive.

Zhou Ronghua said: "Back to the king, the Qing army did not retreat, but increased its troops. ”

Gao Yihuan frowned, "After the Hetao was sacked by my Great Wei, the Qing army wanted to garrison the Hetao, and supplies needed to be transported from the Guannei. The Manchus actually withstood the pressure of logistics and continued to increase their troops, what did they want to do? ”

Zhou Ronghua said: "It should be preparing to attack Mongolia, or to attack our Guanzhong!" ”

"What is the situation in Mobei Mongolia now?" Gao Yihuan asked.

Zhou Ronghua said: "The Qing army has attacked Guanzhong several times in Mobei Mongolia without success, and has become suspicious and is exerting pressure on Mobei Mongolia. The Chechen Khan hoped that the king would provide some more armor, food and cloth for the Chechen Ministry! ”

Gao Yihuan frowned, waved his hand, and said, "Give it to him, let him exchange it for horses!" ”

At this time, it was approaching dusk, and the officials of the various yamen offices had packed up their tables and prepared to return to their respective mansions.

In the yamen of the military department, Kuang Pengsheng patted a director on the shoulder, "Director Song, go have a drink?" ”

The director, Song Congxin, shook his head, "No, I still have some things, so I'll go first!" ”

After saying that, Song Congxin hastily cleaned up the table, and quickly left the public room, Kuang Pengsheng looked at his hurried back, a little surprised in his heart, and suddenly saw another colleague, so he smiled again: "Brother Liu, go have a drink?" ”

·······

In the city of Xi'an, because the capital of the Great Wei Dynasty was here, a large number of public officials were brought in, which gave birth to many restaurants in the city.

In the vicinity of Taiping Street, where the Yamen of the Western Wei Dynasty gathered, there were many restaurants.

At this time, Song Congxin, the head of the military department, came to a small wine shop, walked directly through the lobby, walked up to the second floor, opened the curtain and walked into a room.

There was a thin yin owl man sitting in the private room, who was pouring himself a drink, and when he saw Song Congxin coming in, he immediately raised his eyebrows, "You're late!" ”

Song Congxin sat down opposite him without saying a word, took out a piece of paper from his arms, and said coldly: "This is what you want, it has a complete list of the transactions between the Western Wei Dynasty and the Mobei Three Divisions, I hope you don't come to me again!" ”

The man took the paper and looked at it, but smiled sympathetically at Song Congxin.

On the opposite side of the wine shop, Kuang Pengsheng was drinking with Liu Xiangke, but his brows suddenly wrinkled, and he happened to see from the window that Song Congxin came out of the opposite restaurant~
