Chapter 883: The Old Party, the New Party, and the Li Party
All the officials knew that the prince was in charge of the country today, but in fact, no one really took the eight-year-old prince to heart. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
But now, the crown prince shocked the courtiers fiercely.
Taking advantage of Liu Xun's loss of honor in front of the palace, he directly convicted Liu Xun, the pioneer of the anti-new law, of defrauding the monarch, and then took away all official positions, cut his post to the people, and was also assigned to Vietnam.
This heavy punch not only directly knocked Liu Xun to the ground, but even Xiao Yu, Chen Shuda and other prime ministers did not expect it at all.
Xiao Yu only felt dizzy for a while.
How can these people of the Li family be more ruthless than the other.
Emperor Taishang was in Taiyuan that year, and Taoguang was obscure, which was very good. Emperor Li Shimin was even more ruthless, directly seizing the throne by the change of Xuanwumen, and the now eight-year-old prince was in charge of the country, and he was so ruthless as soon as he came up.
But after thinking about it, this father is Li Shimin, and the teacher is Li Chao, so it doesn't seem strange to teach such a prince.
Xiao Yu's body was trembling, and as soon as the prince came, he used the excuse to get Liu Xun down, this is to kill chickens and monkeys, and to fight the old party.
Today, the DPRK and the Central Committee have been divided into two parties, the old and the new, because of the change of the law. Naturally, it is the new party that supports the new law, and it is the old party that opposes the new law.
Among the old and new parties, the new party is mainly Li Chao and Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhan, Ma Zhou, Wei Zhengchang, Sun Wuji, and other prime ministers, as well as a group of officials such as Sun Fujia and Wang Qi. The old party is represented by several prime ministers such as Xiao Yu and Chen Shuda.
In general, the new party occupies more high-ranking positions in the DPRK and the central government, while the old party has more numbers.
However, in the new party, there is another Li party, Fang Du and other prime ministers are not in this Li party, the Li party is headed by Li Chao, Ma Zhou, Sun Fujia and others in a circle.
Of course, the new party and the old party, the Li party, these are actually just private statements, and above the court, there has never been such a statement by the new party and the old party Li party.
But that's just the way it is.
Xiao Yu is the leader of the old party, and Liu Yi is the vanguard of the old party.
Now that the pioneer has been beheaded, Xiao Yu can't help but feel sad about the death of a rabbit and a fox.
He wanted to stand out against it, but when he took half a step, he saw Chen Shuda's eyes on him.
Xiao Yu paused, then withdrew his foot, he restrained himself and thought carefully.
He comprehended Chen Shuda's eyes.
Although the crown prince is young, he is still the crown prince, and he is still the regent of the prison country appointed by the emperor, and the prince is the king.
Today, the prince is on the first day of the court, no matter what decision the prince makes, he can't oppose it so simply. Because by doing so, he is deliberately influencing the authority of the crown prince.
Besides, Liu Xun himself is indeed out of order, and the prince's handling is a bit excessive, but he is the prince, and the first decision he made on the first day of the court today, as the prime minister, should he oppose it in public and force the prince to take back his fate?
If he really wants to do this, he will not take the prince in his eyes.
What's more, the eldest grandson Wuji and these people will definitely take the opportunity to play, not only to get Liu Xun, but also to attack them together.
Today, they couldn't win anyway.
If you can't bear it, you will make a big plan, and you can't let the prince use the topic to play because of a Liu Xun.
The important thing is to abolish the new law, and Liu Xun's assignment is only temporary, as long as the new law can be abolished, it will be no problem to find an opportunity for the emperor to transfer Liu Xun back.
Several guards came in and forked out Liu Xun, who was lying on the ground.
Tranquility was restored in the temple.
Cheng Qian's hands were on the armrests of the dragon chair, and his little person sat in the big dragon chair, looking a little uncoordinated.
But the crown prince was tall, and his eyes were full of royal authority.
took down Liu Xun in the imperial history, so that no one in the palace would look down on the prince anymore.
No matter how young the crown prince is, he is also the regent of the prison country.
Glancing at the ministers in the palace, Cheng Qian retracted his gaze, and said in a loud voice, "Gu also heard that the court has been in a bit uproar recently due to the new policy. The new law is a policy proposed by Taiwei and Shangshu Ling Li Xiangguo to enrich the country and strengthen the army, which was passed by the prime ministers of Zhongshu after deliberation, and was reviewed and approved by His Majesty, and then handed over to Shangshu Province for implementation. ”
"The new law is a court policy adopted by His Majesty and the central court after careful discussion. But now, some people are attacking the new law when Li Xiangwai went out to resist the joint invasion of the Turks and Goguryeo, and when His Majesty is recuperating from illness and unable to take care of the government. ”
"Of course!"
Cheng Qian suddenly turned around.
"Your Majesty and Li Xiangguo also once told Gu that no policy is perfect. No one is perfect without gold. Even if it is a new policy, it must still be flawed at the beginning, but after it is implemented, problems can still be found and improved. ”
"If there is something wrong with the new policy, it will be revised, but it cannot be wasted because of choking."
Such a long speech shocked the court officials of the old and new parties in the palace.
How could His Royal Highness the Crown Prince say such a thing? Some people have already concluded that this must have been taught to the crown prince by the emperor, and it could never be the prince's own argument.
Over there, Cheng Qian was still talking.
"Today, Lone began to supervise the regent of the country, and the first prince's order of the regent is to let all the officials in the world target the new law. You can see it a few times, and there is no restriction. It can be to point out the problems of the new law, or to put forward better suggestions, but there is one point, I don't want to look at those tables that only blindly criticize the new law, you either point out the shortcomings of the new law in the table and have to come up with real evidence, or you can come up with some better insights on the current situation and current politics of the country. ”
"No matter how many officials there are, they need to write a submission. As long as it is written well, Lone and the court will not hesitate to reward them, and those who are particularly outstanding among them will be promoted exceptionally. ”
The prince's words shocked the palace officials again.
After Xiao Yu heard this, she was not so angry.
In his opinion, it is estimated that the emperor taught this to the prince, but it is actually the emperor's meaning, but it is said through the prince's mouth. If this is the case, then this means that the emperor is no longer completely blindly supporting the new law.
The emperor began to loosen up and have an attitude.
"Lone has also been studying the new law, and he also has some opinions of his own. Today, let's throw bricks and lead the jade first. ”
In front of hundreds of officials, Cheng Qian put forward a deficiency in the new law.
"The two tax laws were originally a reform plan for more reasonable tax collection, but after the reform of the two tax laws, the people of the world complained. What to complain about, complain about tax increases, the burden is heavier. ”
"In addition to the rent adjustment tax, it is necessary to add land tax and household tax. The land tax and household tax are not levied on the basis of the dingkou, but on the basis of the amount of property. This was originally reasonable, but one point was overlooked before, that is, the people's regular taxes have not been reduced, and the two taxes have increased a lot, which has indeed increased the burden. ”
"This is a loophole, a shortcoming. Today, Lone put forward a proposal, two taxes, plus a standard. ”
That is, the people of the world are limited to 100 acres of land per household. If the land is 100 mu or less, no two taxes shall be levied. If it is more than 100 acres, it will be taxed according to the excess part according to the number of acres of land. ”
As soon as the prince's words were spoken.
Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Eldest Sun Wuji, Wei Zheng, Ma Zhou, and even Xiao Yu, Chen Shuda, Yu Wenshiji, Gao Shilian, Yang Gongren and other prime ministers, as well as those ministers, all opened their mouths wide.
Isn't this suggestion from the prince bad? Of course not, not bad, but too good. It's so good that all the officials are thinking, why can't they think of such a suggestion before.
Fang Xuanling raised the wat out of the ranks.
"Your Highness thinks about the people and is kind! Great goodness! ”
Du Ruhui took the jade wat board and slapped it in his palm, and the eldest grandson Wuji and others also followed with the wat to high-five, so the hall continued to snap.
Ministers, this is how to express appreciation for the crown prince.
Fang Xuanling was very excited and relieved.
In fact, what the prince said had already been mentioned by Li Chao when he played against the emperor. When Li Chao proposed the reform of the two taxes, he originally set such a standard. There is a minimum threshold for the two taxes, which is one hundred acres of land per household.
If it is less than 100 acres, there is no tax. If it is more than 100 acres, it will be exceeded.
Li Chao proposed this article, also considering that the new two taxes will increase the burden on the people. A minimum standard was proposed, but it was rejected.
The person who vetoed it was none other than the emperor.
The emperor believed that if this standard was set, the two taxes would basically not be able to collect the taxes of the common people, and only those who were rich and powerful could be collected.
Li Shimin believes that if only large households are taxed, it will undoubtedly be difficult. If all people are taxed on the same basis as land and property, then there is no reason for the big households to object.
At the beginning, it really relied on this article to implement the two tax laws.
But it also led to the fact that everyone in the back was against the two taxes.
Now that the opposition to the new law is so fierce, at this time the prince stood up and put forward the proposal of setting up a 100-acre tax point, although it is not new, but for the current situation, it is a great relief.
After all, in this way, ordinary people basically don't have to pay two taxes.
Ordinary people do not occupy much land and property in the world, but their number is extremely large, even if they occupy ninety percent of the world's households, it is not an exaggeration. All of a sudden, ninety percent of the people of the Tang Dynasty no longer have to pay the two taxes, and they no longer oppose the two taxes, and the pressure on the court is much less.
The big ones still object, but they seem to be much thinner.
Fang Xuanling had to admire, the entry point chosen by the prince was very good.
first took down Liu Xun, the leader, and then announced that hundreds of officials in the world would discuss the gains and losses of the new policy, and now he personally put forward a corrective proposal for the new law.
In this way, the extreme antagonism between the DPRK and China over the New Deal has eased a lot. The most important point is that although the crown prince has not abolished the new law, he has personally proposed to correct it, which undoubtedly gives some hope to the old party who oppose the new law, which is much better than being dragged every day before.
This is also an acceptable outcome for them.
It doesn't matter if you take your time, just start looking for questions about the new law.
