Chapter Seventy-One: Reform Report
Chapter 71 Reform Report
"If there is something to play, there is nothing to retreat."
Words that haven't changed for thousands of years are ringing again.
Li Shen sat on the dragon chair in civilian clothes, looking at the ministers below, even if he sat in this position for almost a month, he still felt a little awkward.
"Your Majesty, the minister has something to do." Ma Zhou stood up and saluted and said.
"What?" Li Shen asked.
"Your Majesty, the minister is to report to Your Majesty on the reform in the past two months, and I want to hear Your Majesty's opinion." Ma Zhou said.
"Say it." Li Shen nodded and said.
"Now that the cabinet has been formed, it is divided into the Ministry of Law led by Lord Changsun, the Ministry of Public Security under the command of General Cheng Yanjin, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Etiquette led by Zhang Gongjin, the Army of the Tang Empire under the command of General Su Dingfang Su, and the Taxation Bureau under the command of Lord Xiao Yu............"
Li Shen nodded slightly and said, "Has it started to run alone now?" ”
"Basically, it has been run separately, but some things still need to be coordinated, after all, it has just been established, although things have begun to be concretized, but there are still certain difficulties, and sometimes it is not clear that a matter should be handled by that department." Ma Zhou replied.
"It's good to wait for everyone to get used to it, and that's it for the time being." Li Shen replied.
Li Shen originally thought that there would be some chaos in the change of the law in the court, but he didn't expect it to be completed so smoothly, although there were some chaos, but these chaos were easily solved by these people, so that he also saved a lot of trouble.
Datang is now crossing the river by feeling the stones, which Li Shen knows that although the change will not shake the foundation of Datang, it can completely shake the green leaves on the foundation, and lead the interests of too many people inside, merchants, dignitaries and nobles, scholars, etc., especially the royal family of the Li family.
Thinking of these royal families of the Li family, Li Shen felt a little painful, if he wanted to move the interests of these people, I am afraid it was really difficult, if these guys made trouble, it would really be difficult to clean up.
Li Shen paused and said: "First divide each industry and industry in detail, which department will manage those things, and explain it to the officials of each department, which will also save a lot of trouble, at least the officials below will go to Chang'an City to do business, and they will know where to go." ”
"No." The ministers responded.
Li Shen nodded and said, "All the departments will rebuild a piece of land in the Chang'an City Planning Office and build your separate office space, and after the place is built, you will also go to your respective office locations to work." It's not very important for you to solve it on your own, just send me a copy every week to check it out. ”
Looking at the ministers with a somewhat incredulous face, Li Shen reached out and touched his nose, and said: "You can't let me do everything, I am a person, not a god, and there are mistakes, you start to solve them from below, and then hand them over to the head of your department, if your supervisor feels that it is okay, there will be no problem, and if your supervisor feels that it is not good, it will be solved by your supervisor, and the things that your supervisor can't solve will be presented to me in person, and then I will solve it." What Datang wants you to do is to let you reduce the burden on me, and I will not handle everything. ”
"Now that all departments have been established, they will first run in Chang'an City for half a year, and after half a year, they will be corrected if they feel that it is not good there, and then spread to the periphery of Chang'an City, so that officials from all over the city can come to learn, and officials from Chang'an City will also be sent to various places to guide the work."
"No~~~~"
"Anything else?" Li Shen asked.
"Your Majesty, the minister has something to do." Su Ding stood up expressionlessly and said.
Li Shen looked at Su Dingfang, who was bareheaded, and couldn't help but smile, when did this guy shave his head so brightly, nodded, and said, "Say it." ”
Li Shen picked up the teacup on the table, opened it and looked at the cold tea inside, glanced at Gonggong Chen, who was standing aside with his head down, and handed him the cup.
"Your Majesty is like this, how is the reform of the army carried out now? There are no favorable weapons, if the reform is carried out rashly now, for the people around Datang, they will fall into absolute danger, take the major tribes on the grassland, although they are now subjugating to my Datang, but they still have hundreds of thousands of troops, and they can wave troops to attack my Datang at any time......"
Li Shen stretched out his hand and touched his chin, listened to Su Dingfang's words, and nodded slightly, these people on the grassland are a threat to Datang, and now communication and transportation are not convenient, even if they are conquered, but it is more difficult to tame them, and they have collected the weapons in their hands? This is also a bit difficult, in this era, there are a lot of wolves and beasts in the grassland, and if they really take away all the weapons, it will be difficult for them to survive.
"Your Majesty, this minister really doesn't know how to start with the reform of the army." Su Dingfang said.
"Well, the reform of the army will start with the 30,000 troops, and the rest can only wait for the time being, and then talk about it after a year or two, if the reform is carried out now, I am afraid that Datang will really fall into danger." Li Shen said lightly, facing the eldest grandson Wuji, and said, "Uncle, what is the situation of the various laws drafted now?" When Datang reaches the age of eighteen, it is necessary to serve in the army, and there is no note to the law of Datang. ”
The eldest grandson Wuji nodded with a smile on his face, Li Shen gave him face! It is simply a supreme honor to be able to call his uncle above the court, I was originally worried that His Majesty Li Er would fall, he did not have the glory he used to be, but I didn't expect Li Shen to be so polite to him, and said: "Back to Your Majesty, everything is going smoothly, there are too many vacancies in the law, during this time, Lao Chen and others have been rewriting, it is estimated that it will take a few months to complete, and it will almost be perfected." As for military service, the old minister still wants to wait a little longer, after all, Datang is now in a period of changing the law, and various departments have not been able to stabilize for the time being, so the minister finally did not write this law into it. ”
Li Shen smiled and looked at the eldest grandson Wuji, although he was an old fox, but he also hoped that he could have self-knowledge, he could give him such treatment, he should also be able to understand, nodded, and said: "Performing military service is the responsibility that the people of Datang must bear, the stronger the Datang is, the more stable the people's lives can be, I hope that this matter will be directly told to the people, I want them to explain, they should be able to understand, it's just two years, so I don't want them to go to the battlefield, It's just to give them a taste of life in the army. ”
