Chapter 471: Suggestions and Reminders
Chapter 471 Suggestions and Reminders
"Lingyan Pavilion?" Li Shimin quickly calmed down his sad state of mind and frowned: "What is this?" ”
"It is a building similar to the Qilin Pavilion and Yuntai in the Han Dynasty." Han Rui hurriedly said: "However, the slight difference is that in the imagination of the minister, this Lingyan Pavilion can be divided into two parts, one is the same as the Qilin Pavilion and Yuntai, which enshrines the generals who have contributed to the Sheji, and the other is to build a martyr's hall to enshrine the soldiers who fought on the battlefield and sacrificed their lives for the country, set up their tablets, and tell their heroic deeds for the people to mourn and pay respect......"
"Lingyan Pavilion, Heroes Building, Martyrs' Hall" Li Shimin sank up.
The eleventh meritorious heroes of the Qilin Pavilion and the twenty-eight generals of Yuntai are famous in history, and Li Shimin naturally knows that commending the meritorious heroes can not only buy people's hearts, but also play an exemplary role, which is conducive to future generations to follow suit.
In fact, in Li Shimin's heart, there is also a vague idea of this, but he is quite worried, after all, most of these founding fathers are still alive, and they are already famous all over the world, and if they have a good reputation, I am afraid it will be difficult to control, despite this, for Han Rui's proposal, Li Shimin also has a feeling of meeting a confidant.
In Li Shimin's view, Han Rui is not a close minister, he has not had much contact with himself, and it is impossible to figure out his own psychology, and now he has such thoughts, which can be said to be the same as the hero's vision, but unfortunately this proposal is a bit premature and out of place, and Li Shimin immediately vetoed it in his heart.
However, compared with the Heroes Building, Li Shimin is more concerned about the Heroic Martyrs' Hall, with his political acumen, he naturally understands that the benefits of building this Heroic Martyrs' Hall, if Lingyan Pavilion is to buy the hearts of the world's officials and courtiers, then the Heroic Martyrs' Hall is to envelop the hearts of the world's military and civilians, and the benefits are simply wonderful.
Although Li Shimin is said to be the second generation of emperors, he has been in the military for a long time and has made great achievements, and most of Li Tang's rivers and mountains were fought down by him, and his prestige is higher than that of Li Jiancheng, so after the Xuanwu Mén Change, he could ascend the throne logically, without causing a backlash from the powerful lords. Knowing military affairs, he also won the throne by force, so he naturally knew the importance of the army.
Han Rui proposed to construct the Martyrs' Hall, the significance is much higher than the heroes of later generations and the like, because these buildings only have a simple commemorative meaning, just for people to remember, mourn, observe, take history as a mirror, inherit the legacy of the martyrs, do not forget the shame of the past, etc., the role is not prominent enough, over time, everyone forgets.
However, in ancient times, the people believed in the existence of the soul, believed in the ancestors, and would protect future generations in the underworld, so they burned incense very piously and worshipped, sacrificed every year, and never dared to slack off.
At the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, the status of the military was higher, and the government military system of the integration of soldiers and peasants was implemented, one person acted as a government soldier, and the whole family was incorporated into the military register, not belonging to the state and county, and was exempted from conscription.
However, people cannot be resurrected after death, no matter how generous the pension is, it cannot be erased, the sadness of parents losing their sons, wives losing their husbands, and children losing their fathers, Li Shimin also has a lot of feelings about this kind of thing, after all, in his youth, his feelings were simple, there was no struggle for the throne, and the relationship between Li Shimin and his brothers and sisters was also very close.
When the Li family raised the army, it was impossible to have a smooth ride, and the fact that brothers and blood relatives were captured and killed often happened, that kind of heart-wrenching pain, how could Li Shimin forget, compare his heart with his heart, if he did something, he could alleviate the grief of the families of the fallen soldiers, and Li Shimin was also willing to do it.
Moreover, if he can stabilize Li Tang's country and kill two birds with one stone, such a good thing, Li Shimin will only be too little, and he will not worry too much. In an instant, Li Shimin made a decision in his heart, and immediately raised his voice: "Someone is coming, and the book of the Ministry of Rites will meet you." ”
After a while, Uchishi sent a message to the office of the Ministry of Rites, Wang? I felt a little strange in my heart, I had only come back from the palace for a while, why did I summon him again, could it be that something had just happened, something was missing? King? I couldn't figure it out, but I didn't dare to slack off, straightened my clothes, and walked away.
Coming to the palace again, under the guidance of Uchishi, the king? Walking lightly, I crossed a few beaded curtains, and vaguely heard someone in the hall talking, intermittently, as if somewhat familiar.
“…… Weichen persuaded for a long time, but Wudu Governor was still indifferent, and Xiǎo Chen was ashamed...... The next day, the head of Gangneung County asked for marriage, and the governor of Wudu appeared, according to the minister's guess, it should be concerned about the long nv, but in his words and deeds, it seems that he did not dispel the idea of suicide......"
King? Slowed down and walked in slowly, suddenly a little surprised, because it was Dr. Taichang Han Rui who was talking about it, reporting on the trip to Jingzhou.
Sensing that someone was coming in, Han Rui's voice slowed down slightly, and he found that the person who came was the king of Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, hesitated, and saw that Li Shimin had no intention of stopping, so he had to continue to speak, fortunately, there were only a few words left, and he stayed to witness the marriage between Qian Feng and Wu Mingze, and the samurai? said a few nonsense words until he sailed back to Chang'an, as for other side matters, it is estimated that Li Shimin will not be interested, so he naturally ignores the past.
"Duke of Jinyang, loyalty and righteousness ......" Li Shimin sighed, no matter what thoughts he had in his heart, he could only advocate praise and set up a model for such behavior, and could not veto it, lest some cunning people distort their words.
"See Your Majesty." King? Take the opportunity to salute.
"Wang Shangshu, sit down." Li Shimin took the lead, sighed for a moment, and instructed the king to write a letter to comfort the warriors.
Although, once he was an official in the same dynasty and a minister in the same hall, but he was a king? With the samurai? The relationship is very strange, but even if the emperor orders it down, the king? Naturally, he would not shirk and agreed, and he also knew that with the emperor's spleen, he would never specially summon him for this little thing.
Sure enough, with a sigh, Li Shimin said seriously with a somewhat serious expression on his face: "Han Qing, you carefully tell Wang Shangshu about the suggestion just now, which is the matter of building the Heroic Martyrs' Hall." ”
He was also a little dry-mouthed, but he didn't expect the emperor to pay attention, and gave him tea, Han Rui swallowed his throat, and when he was about to recount, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he noticed that Li Shimin's order was only a martyr's hall, and there was no meritorious building......
Confirming that he had heard correctly, Han Rui's mind turned sharply, and he didn't dare to hesitate for too long, so he immediately omitted the part of the Heroes Building, and directly explained the setting and construction of the Martyrs' Hall, and its functions, basically, it is an abbreviated version of the Monument to the People's Heroes, plus Han Rui's own understanding of the ancient ritual system, to supplement, the plan is very rough.
There is no way, the situation in ancient and modern times is different, and the doctrine of taking it will not work at all, and Han Rui himself is not a demon like Li Chunfeng, in a hurry, it is inevitable that there will be some disagreements, but he can barely express it clearly, and there is no place where the words do not reach the meaning.
Anyway, Han Rui himself was a little weak-minded, and he didn't know if such a proposal was shocking in ancient times, and he committed the taboo of some people, competing against each other, and attacking it in groups.
Before Han Rui's voice fell, Li Shimin said eagerly: "What does Wang Shangshu think?" ”
Glancing at Han Rui, Wang? Shen Yin said: "The soldiers are bloody on the battlefield, loyal to the country, and buried in the scenery, this is a matter of course, Your Majesty is merciful, generous and compensatory, and it is a blessing for the soldiers and military families......"
Han Rui frowned slightly, even he could hear it, Wang? This is to take care of him, although he is not talking nonsense, but there is no substance at all, and he didn't mention the Heroic Martyr's Hall, is it a tactful objection?
Not only did Han Rui guess like this, but Li Shimin also had this idea, and his face deliberately showed displeasure, and he said loudly: "Wang Shangshu, since you know the suffering of the soldiers, then you should understand that the establishment of the Martyrs' Hall is to enshrine these heroic and loyal souls who are loyal to the country. ”
"The minister did not object." King? Shaking his head, he was not afraid of panic, and said without being arrogant or humble: "I just think that such a major matter cannot be decided hastily, and it is necessary to gather the ministers and discuss it carefully." ”
Hearing this, Han Rui could be sure that it must be a place that was not well thought out, so that Wang had a different opinion in his heart, but he saw that Li Shimin agreed with the idea of building the Martyrs' Hall, and knew that he was weak and could not stop it, so he simply recruited all his colleagues and opposed it together.
Of course, there may be some malicious speculation, but Han Rui never minds, speculating on others with the greatest malice, I really don't understand, Wang? 's official reputation seems to be good, how can even such a good thing be opposed.
After all, it is the money and grain from the state treasury that is used, and it is also necessary to mobilize the people and craftsmen to serve in conscription, but the purchase of timber and stone and the transportation of money and grain, to a certain extent, can also promote economic development and increase tax revenue, which is nothing more than putting money from the right pocket to the left pocket, which is not excessive.
Han Rui's heart was broken, but he didn't notice that Li Shimin's eyes swept over him. After being silent, Li Shimin nodded and said, "That's right, thanks to Wang Shangshu's reminder, it was my negligence, let's discuss this matter again." ”
"Your Majesty." King? said, the corners of his mouth were a little more relieved smile.
After taking the book, Li Shimin read it with a pen and said lightly: "Well, you guys should step down." ”
"The minister retired" the king? Han Rui, who was not clear about the situation with Mo, said in unison, quietly got up, and stepped back out of the palace.
Out of the palace, Han Rui abided by the rules, a few steps behind himself, and gave way to the king? First, in fact, Han Rui was also a little embarrassed, and wanted to avoid the king, but the direction of the Ministry of Rites and Taichang Temple was the same, and on both sides of the palace, there were mostly forbidden places, and it was impossible to go around, so Han Rui could only bow his head and obediently follow the king? Behind you, walk slowly.
Suddenly, finding that the figure in front of him stopped, Han Rui hurriedly stopped and looked up, but saw Wang? Turning around, he said meaningfully: "Dr. Han, don't forget your identity. ”
What do you mean? Han Rui was stunned for a moment, and looked at Wang blankly? Walking away lightly, the figure disappeared into the office of the Ministry of Rites, and there were thousands of thoughts in his mind, and he felt in his heart, Wang? This sentence is not a malicious warning, but a reminder......
