Chapter 317: Joining forces
Of course, Qin Shaoyou wants to borrow from the Hongnong clan, not to mention talents.
Talent is important, after all, it is related to whether there can be a steady stream of fresh blood within a group.
In this era, the scholars control everything, and almost all books and knowledge are monopolized in the hands of the scholars, which is a problem that Qin Shaoyou cannot avoid.
What Qin Shaoyou borrowed more heavily was the connections and channels of the Hongnong clan.
This kind of intertwined family, through countless marriages, as well as business again and again, has sent a child and a protΓ©gΓ© to all the key nodes of the Tang Dynasty, these people may be the humerus ministers of the Tang Dynasty, or the world-famous Confucian, may be a local assassin, an envoy, or a general in the army.
It's like an invisible thread, through the operation of Hongnong, and finally affects all aspects.
This is also the reason why although Qin Shaoyou has a holy order, he cannot use the will of the imperial court to implement his rule in Hongnong, because the group he has to face is too complicated, and the whole body is involved, and Qin Shaoyou is by no means their opponent in the battle for the temple. Even with Li Xian's support, it is difficult to have too many chances of winning.
Qin Shaoyou's only way was to find another way to defeat them economically.
But to completely cut them down and eradicate the roots, it is obviously impossible, after suppression, it is to win over and control, and then slowly digest, once the Shence Army and the Hongnong clan are combined, how terrible will this power be?
At this time, Yang Jiong didn't make a sound, obviously he was still thinking about it.
And the others were also silent, their faces were embarrassed.
Qin Shaoyou's solution can solve their urgent needs, but they are not fools, of course they can see Qin Shaoyou's intentions, do they really want to be with the Shence Army? And they have to be manipulated and manipulated by this person.
Obviously, Qin Shaoyou's things can indeed save a momentary emergency. But what about in the long run? For example, what kind of martial arts hall to send the children to, it seems to be pretty good, but don't forget, once you send it, you are still subject to Qin Shaoyou, how to arrange it, you can't interfere at all.
They are all wealthy families of Hongnong and even the entire Kanto, even if the imperial court woos them, they must be allowed to hold high positions, but they are manipulated by the Shence Mansion like this. Apparently some are unwilling.
So many people whispered, and for a moment they couldn't make up their minds.
Wang Ju sat silently on the sidelines, watching coldly, these conditions put forward by Qin Shaoyou were all negotiated with him, after all, Wang Ju is also a scholar, and the mind of the scholar clan, he is the most transparent, relying on those things alone. It will indeed be attractive, but it is not enough, at least not enough to make people willing, the scholars have the reserve of the scholars. Even if they had to compromise today, once they relented, who knows if they would fight back.
Wang Ju squinted his eyes and suddenly smiled. It seems that it is necessary to come up with a real killer feature.
Wang Ju said slowly: "In addition, His Royal Highness is kind-hearted. For the governance of this Hongnong County, I have always been worried, after all, His Royal Highness is a martial artist, and if he wants to govern one side, of course, he must rely on the sages, otherwise this Shence Mansion will not become a rootless duckweed? Previously, everyone did have some misunderstandings, but if you don't fight, you can't make a deal, and I hope that you Haihan, this matter of Hongnong County's workers' and peasants' criminal administration, with His Royal Highness's modest efforts, can be accomplished overnight. Therefore, His Royal Highness intends to set up a council hall, and the princes can recommend talents and discuss matters in the hall, and the decrees of Hongnong County can be made suggestions for it, and the things discussed in the council hall can be called government decrees and promulgated and implemented, but I don't know what the public thinks, okay? β
Decentralization......
Or rather...... Split apart......
At this moment, everyone gasped.
It would be a great temptation for them to nominate people to discuss matters, and to call them decrees.
That is to say, at least, they can guarantee that the decree of the Tiance Mansion will not greatly harm the interests of each family, and under this premise, everyone can play their own role and put forward some suggestions.
Of course, at the same time as Qin Shaoyou's decentralization, it also means differentiation, because the interests of each family are naturally different, so that the Hongnong clan, of course, cannot be monolithic, today everyone comes to ask Yang Jiong, in addition to Yang Jiong's sufficient prestige, there is another reason, that is, now outside the Hongnong clan, there is a strong enemy, so everyone abandons the previous suspicion and has to unite.
But then, it is tantamount to putting everyone's controversy in the council hall, and at that time, it is certain that their interests are different, and they have to play around their own interests, and the scholars are afraid that they will be divided.
Qin Shaoyou nodded with a smile: "This is a good plan planned by Mr. Wang and this king, that is, I hope that all the princes can work together, not only for Hongnong, but also for this king to do some modest efforts, as for the candidate for the speaker of this council, this king already has a candidate in his heart, why not let Yang Gong take office?" β
At this moment, everyone's eyes were on Yang Jiong.
Yang Jiong was a little embarrassed, as if he was using his power for personal gain, he smiled dryly: "How can the old man be virtuous." β
Yang Jiong's position is really embarrassing, when Li Jingye rebelled, the Yang family strongly supported Li Jingye, and Yang Jiong was also one of Li Jingye's biggest supporters, so after Wu Zetian rebelled, under the influence of the Yang family, he didn't do anything to Yang Jiong, but he refused to let him be an official, so that Yang Jiong has been in the field, although he is also leisurely, but he is still quite depressed in his heart.
According to Qin Shaoyou's meaning, the power and responsibility of the council hall is not small, but it is quite like a combination of Menxia Province and Zhongshu Province, and this speaker is not equivalent to the prime minister?
Although Hongnong County is small, its strength is not low, after all, it has so many Hongnong clans, and although its influence is not as good as that of Guanzhong, it is definitely one of the best among the states in the world. In addition, there is a rich place like Mengjin, so the status of the military, political, and economic aspects is not low, and this speaker is actually equivalent to the second-in-command of the entire Kwantung clan plus the behemoth of the Shence Army. This is definitely a great temptation, which can not only ensure the status of the scholars, but also show their strengths, although Yang Jiong is polite, his mind is really moved.
Qin Shaoyou smiled and said: "This king sees that Yang Gong is competent, but he doesn't know the other princes, what objections do you have?" β
Everyone looked at each other, and for a while, there was nothing to say.
There are not a few people who support it, as everyone said, this is equivalent to the Shi clan participating in the political affairs of the Shence Mansion, and they can speak for their own interests, and Yang Jiong is the first wealthy family in Hongnong, and his status is not under the Cui family, so there is nothing wrong with him coming forward.
Even if a few people oppose it, but opposition is tantamount to opposing the Yang family, and not giving face to the king of Hongnong County, you will become a minority at that time, fools understand that this surnamed Qin is a ruthless person, if the scholars are together, people are a little jealous, if you are just fighting alone, it seems that the Shence Mansion will never mind killing a hundred people.
Yang Jiong felt like a dream, he had already begun to plan in his heart, and he couldn't help but say: "In the council hall, are there only talents recommended by the princes of Hongnong?" β
Qin Shaoyou said: "The people who discuss the matter can be set to one hundred and fifty people, the princes can recommend seventy people, and the rest, the military attaches who have retired from the Shence army need to keep thirty people, and the other fifty people are all over the country." β
There is no more than half of the Hongnong clan, but the speaker has given it to himself, and there is a lot of room for change in various places, so there seems to be nothing wrong with it.
Yang Jiong asked again: "As long as the negotiable matter is passed by the council hall, can it really be turned into a decree and implemented?" β
Qin Shaoyou said with a smile: "Not really, if this is the case, wouldn't this king become an ornament." β
When he said this, many people couldn't help laughing.
This is true, because fools understand that if this is the case, then the entire Hongnong is the world of the council hall, and in the council hall, the number of scholars is the largest, this Qin Shaoyou, wouldn't he give up the entire Shence Mansion, this is absolutely impossible, people cut their flesh and take out benefits, but they will never commit suicide, Yang Jiong and many people will certainly not have such delusions.
Qin Shaoyou said: "In this hall, you can't interfere with the Tiance Army. This is one of them. β
It is true that you should not meddle in the affairs of the army, this, many people nodded involuntarily, which is understandable.
Qin Shaoyou said lightly: "The second is that this king can reject any decree that he feels is unreasonable. β
If you vote or not, everyone will discuss something, and Qin Shaoyou has the right to veto.
This is tantamount to Qin Shaoyou putting himself in a transcendent position, he can ignore political affairs, but he must reserve the right to interfere at any time, once it goes against the interests of Qin Shaoyou or Tiance Mansion, and even when there are some too unreasonable laws and regulations, Qin Shaoyou can stop them at any time.
Yang Jiong breathed a sigh of relief, in fact, if Qin Shao lobbied and let your council be the master, he wouldn't dare to nod rashly, because this is simply a pie falling from the sky, who would dare to ask for it? On the contrary, Qin Shaoyou seriously put forward some provisions that were beneficial to him Qin Shaoyou, which also showed that Qin Shaoyou was by no means complete, nor was it a means to temporarily appease everyone, Qin Shaoyou was sincere enough.
Yang Jiong had already begun to be moved, but what other people thought, he couldn't make up his mind, he didn't dare to agree rashly, but his attitude towards Qin Shaoyou was a little respectful, and he said: "Your Highness, this matter is very important, if you don't have a family name, your Highness can stay in our mansion for a few days?" The old man is afraid that he still needs to discuss with others. β
