Chapter 537: Reform
After a few sips of tea, Li Xiangcai said slowly: "Come on, show the chief of the guard." Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Zhao Eryi couldn't turn his head for a while, this matter of sitting is a privilege that only important ministers in the court can enjoy, he is a small five-grade guard chief, where has he enjoyed such an honor? I was stunned for a moment.
When the little eunuch moved a chair, Zhao Erchao sat on it in a daze, and he didn't come back to his soul. Li Xiang said again: "Look at the tea!" β
The little eunuchs didn't dare to slack off, so they made a cup of tea as quickly as possible and handed it to Zhao Er. Zhao Erru fell into the clouds, took the tea stupidly, was stunned for a while before coming back to his senses, and said excitedly: "Thank you for the emperor's tea!" β
Li Xiang took another sip of tea before saying, "This tea is good, you can taste it." β
Where did Zhao Er dare to resist the decree? Hurriedly poured it down, regardless of the fact that the tea was still hot.
When Li Xiang saw him like this, he knew that his heart was already in turmoil, and said in his heart: "That's fine." β
Li Xiang sighed: "The people of the world are not satisfied with a full meal, I have not done enough!" β
Zhao Er hurriedly said: "The emperor is wise and martial, and he must be a generation of Ming Jun." Weichen is a big old man and doesn't understand government affairs, but Weichen can see that the emperor is a heart for the people. β
Li Xiang sighed: "What about a piece of Dan heart? You don't understand! He paused, and then continued: "You must know that the Great Song Dynasty has been around for hundreds of years, but now, internal and external troubles, and state affairs are in a mess, so I have to replace it, Zhao Er, you are a person who understands, and you can naturally see what the world has become like in chaos!" The people don't have enough to eat, but the corrupt officials and corrupt officials sing songs every night, how can this make me not feel distressed! β
Zhao Er was excited by Li Xiang's heartfelt words, and said in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty ......"
Outside the palace, on the general's house.
Lu Wende quietly listened to the report of the ear thread he had laid in the palace, and when he heard that Zhao Er was ordered to go out of the city overnight on a business trip, he paused for a moment to drink tea, and said with a frown: "You mean that the emperor summoned Zhao Er's stunned young man and talked inside for a long time?" β
The chamberlain, who stood down, said, "Our family will not be mistaken, the emperor summoned the chief of the guard and stayed in the imperial study for about three quarters of an hour. And after the chief of the guards left the imperial study, he went straight out of Beijing. β
Before Lu Wende could speak, a voice sounded on the screen behind him: "Dad, that little emperor who doesn't learn and doesn't know how to do it, he must have found something interesting again, so he asked Zhao Er to procure it, are you too careful?" β
As soon as the words fell, a nobleman with a shiny face came out from behind the screen, waved the chamberlain out of the room, and said, "You have done a good job, go to the butler to receive the reward!" β
The chamberlain didn't dare to stay any longer, and withdrew. Lu Wende took another sip of tea slowly and said, "Having said that, you must not be unguarded!" Others don't know, don't you know? Everyone knows that the general is beautiful, but they don't know how dangerous it is. If you are not careful, you will never recover! β
The noble prince smiled: "Even if the emperor knows it, it's useless." If it weren't for my Lu family, would he Li Xiang be the emperor? β
Lu Wende frowned and said, "It's okay for others, but Ouyang Xun, the old horseman, will never give up on going against the old man!" β
The noble prince smiled: "Ouyang Xun, that old man is a stubborn donkey, why should you be angry?" However, he fought against his father for the prime minister, which caused a lot of trouble for his father. β
Lu Wende sighed: "Even if he has the ability, he relied on his daughter to become the prime minister, but why shouldn't my Lu family?" β
How to govern the country, Li Xiang really has no experience, but fortunately, his super 3D printer can help him design.
So in the morning of one day, Li Xiang took out Dakang's government agency plan.
Li Xiang said: "The cabinet has one head and assistant, and the rest are cabinet ministers, a total of twelve people, and the official ranks are all second-grade. If you are not talented and outstanding, you will not be allowed to enter the cabinet if you have a gentle temperament. The responsibility of the cabinet is to help me review and approve the folds, divide the priorities into four categories, and deal with the urgent matters; Matters of urgency, after the ticket is drafted, will be sent to me for review. The cabinet and the six ministries, one internal and one external, jointly manage the government and politics, and they don't have to tell me everything. If there is a military problem, it will be directly submitted to the military staff, and the military attachΓ©s will raise their hands to vote after discussing the results. The results were presented to me for review, and then I was given a talisman to send troops. Can you understand? β
The civil and military officials seemed to be shocked by Li Xiang's series of "reforms" and did not come back to their senses for a long time. When everyone came to their senses, many officials couldn't stay still.
Someone immediately jumped out and said, "Your Majesty, don't! These three provinces and six departments are ancestral systems, and they should not be wasted lightly! β
When he boarded, many officials echoed and said: "Yes, Your Majesty, please think twice!" β
Li Xiang knew what they were thinking, it was nothing more than a civil and military dispute, and defending the prime minister's power. However, Li Xiang has never been a compromising person, he looked at the noisy officials below for a long time, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.
He slowly took out a pamphlet from his sleeve and said, "Enough, if you quarrel any more, you will go back to my hometown!" In this world, there are a lot of people who want to be an official for me, there are a lot of you missing, and I am too much of you! β
This sound directly covered the audience, and everyone didn't expect this emperor to be so courageous, so they immediately choked and couldn't say a word, so they had to give up.
Lu Xiufu came out and said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the cabinet system and the military staff are excellent systems, and if they can be standardized, they will greatly improve the efficiency of the imperial court." β
Lu Xiufu is Li Xiang's confidant, of course, he has to jump out to support the emperor at this moment, and also make some political capital for himself, right? can mix in officialdom until now, Lu Xiufu is definitely not a fool. Li Xiang looked around, and when he saw that no one objected anymore, he said: "This matter has been decided, the Ministry of Officials, a complete set of systems needs to be sorted out tomorrow, and I will personally see it." The first cabinet and the first assistant were personally designated by the Council, and the place of office was set up in the Wende Palace; The military staff is located in the Zichen Palace. β
Striking while the iron is hot, Li Xiang continued: "Everyone, Aiqing, in the future, I plan to reform. The income of the Zhongqing family has been halved since then, and it is all charged into the pension. If there is any corruption during the period, the pension is gone, the family property will be confiscated, and the family will be repatriated to their hometown. β
As soon as this news came out, the audience was in an uproar. There are many discussions among civil and military officials, but who else dares to say one more word? Li Xiang ignored them and continued: "In the future, civil and military officials will all be equal, and civil officials and second-rank officials will have as much as they have, and military attachΓ©s and second-rank officials will have as many as they are!" The pension is increased by 50 per year during the period of your tenure. As long as there is no corruption and bending the law, the pension will be given together after returning to the hometown. If a hundred years later, send it to your family. In the future, all money and silver will prevail, and no more physical goods will be given. All the items, Suer and others to buy their own. The household department counted the previous physical goods as money and silver, and halved them and issued them again. Lu Aiqing, do you understand? β
