Chapter 239 Separation of Powers

"Ladies and gentlemen, I said that the Northern Expedition takes three years to prepare, firstly, because of the financial, material and human reserves, and secondly, it is necessary to wait for the completion of this firearm and the army, today, you have all seen the power of firearms, and after three years of improvement, the power of firearms will be multiplied, this is the source of my strong confidence in you, and it depends on the confidence you give me, Gao Aiqing is right, the main factor that determines the victory or defeat of the war is people, within three years, you will each train a strong army for meOf course, if you don't have confidence, then tell me as soon as possible, I can change people, don't wait until the Northern Expedition, you come and say this doesn't work, that can't work, at that time, I will be the army. ”

"Your Majesty rest assured, the ministers will definitely live up to Your Majesty's trust."

"Okay, in this case, in the future, everyone will focus all their minds on the matter of military training, as for other messy things, it is not for you to consider, you should not participate in it, and you must not violate our court's "Code of Conduct for Officials" and laws, I must not only realize the prosperity of the Great Song Dynasty, but also give me a bright and sunny day for the Great Song Dynasty, as a soldier, you and your subordinates must also abide by the law, otherwise don't blame me for being ruthless, understand."

"Your Ministers understand."

Among the four major system envoys, Li Tingzhi does not need to mention, although Gao Da is a neutral person, he is a loyal person, and he has to be reused by me, and his loyalty can be seen, plus there is Zhan Wanshou, I am at ease, Xia Gui's performance during this period of time is also very much in line with me, his son Xia Qing, Xia Song obviously supports me again, so I am basically relieved, this time I surrendered Lu Wende by mistake, which makes me even more happy, of course, Lu Wende's loyalty I still need to test, although Lu Wende promised to leave his son Lu Xin in the upcoming military university,

Under the introduction of Yun Bofei, everyone knew that most of the design ideas of firearms were from my instructions, which made my status as a "god man" in the army gradually formed.

"Ladies and gentlemen, firearms are a first-class secret of our dynasty, you know it yourself, and you must not spread it for the time being, and when the time comes, I will arrange this matter."

"Yes, Your Majesty, your ministers obey."

Wen Tianxiang said: "Your Majesty, it's late, does Your Majesty need to go back to the palace for dinner?" ”

"Oh, what time has it been."

"Your Majesty, it's the end of the unitary hour (7 o'clock in the evening)."

"It's so late, Song Rui, let the kitchen fry a few more dishes, and I'll eat here with you Aiqing."

"Yes, Your Majesty, the minister will arrange it."

I spent the first Double Ninth Festival in the Song Dynasty in a busy way, this day can even be said to be the busiest day after I crossed, and it is also the day when I racked my brains the most, no matter what tricks Jia Nidao will make in the follow-up, at least in the military reform meeting, I have completely gained the upper hand, Lu Xin's appearance in Tongle Lou is like a coincidence arranged by God in the dark, so that the four major war zones are all on my side, coupled with the deterrent power of firearms, I believe that the four major envoys who hold the military power should have respect for me. In the following days, as long as the forbidden army can be successfully broken up and reorganized, then my control of military power will be basically unhindered.

Perhaps, this is my luck as a guardian,

As soon as I returned to the Funing Temple, I lay on the bed and fell asleep, although there was no intense exercise on this day, but the excessive consumption of the brain almost made me dry up and extinguish the lamp, but fortunately, I insisted on practicing martial arts, so I was able to accomplish so many things in one day,

Mongolia, Kublai Khan's temporary palace,

Emperor Hao Jing is explaining the historical classics of the Han people to Kublai Khan: "Great Khan, what the minister is talking about is Du Mu's "A Fang Gong Fu" in the previous dynasty, which is one of Du Mu's masterpieces, and the reason why the minister chose this article is mainly because Du Mu's final conclusion in the text is quite meaningful, and the minister read it to the Great Khan. ”

Kublai Khan leisurely leaned on a chair carved with a dragon's body, his eyes slightly closed, and he was accompanied by the god of Tianya.

Hao Jingdao, who sat at the bottom of the head, said: "Those who destroy the six countries are also the six countries, not Qin, and those who are Qin are not the world, and they are not the world. If Qin Fu loves the people of the Six Kingdoms, he will be the king of the third generation for all generations, and whoever gets it will be wiped out, and the Qin people will not have time to mourn themselves, and the descendants will mourn it; Later generations mourn and do not learn from it, and it also makes future generations mourn for future generations. ”

Although Yin Tianya is a Mongolian shaman, but also proficient in Middle-earth culture, after hearing Hao Jing read, said: "Great Khan, the emperor said that the "A Fang Gong Fu", the essence of which is in these last few sentences, as a literati, Du Mu can vividly summarize the historical experience of the rulers of the Qin Dynasty who were arrogant and extravagant, and issued a warning to the rulers of the Tang Dynasty at that time, which is also commendable, but it is a pity that in the long history of thousands of years, despite the constant shouts of these people of insight, the rulers of all dynasties and generations are still repeating the mistakes of the Qin Dynasty. ”

"A lesson from the past." Kublai Khan opened his eyes and said, "Take history as a mirror, you can't just mourn it and not learn from it, this Du Mu's vision is unique, if you can live now, you must be Ben Khan's mentor and friend, Mr. Hao." ”

"The minister is here."

"In the past, Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty often said, with Wei Zheng as his mirror, he can distinguish right from wrong, and now Ben Khan has Mr. around him, and I hope that Mr. must know everything, and say everything, no matter what Mr. says in the future, Ben Khan will forgive you."

Hao Jing saw that Kublai Khan compared himself to Wei Zheng, and his heart was greatly moved, and he hurriedly said: "The ability of the Great Khan, compared with Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, is as good as that, and the ministers will follow Wei Zheng, for the mirror of the Great Khan, to help the Great Khan create immortal feats, in the past, Ouyang Xiu of the Southern Dynasty said, with copper as a mirror, you can be dressed properly, with history as a mirror, you can know the rise and fall, with people as a mirror, you can know right from wrong, and the minister hopes that the Great Khan can go on like this for a long time, then the world can be determined." ”

"Haha, okay, the return of Mr., for Ben Khan, if Liu Bei gets Zhuge and Liu Bang gets the ovary."

"The Great Khan has won awards, how can the minister compare with Zhuge and Zhang Liang."

Yin Tianya said with a smile: "The emperor doesn't have to be humble, the deity also feels comparable, comparable." ”

Kublai Khan nodded and said: "Divine Venerable, sir, in fact, many truths in the world are very simple, and it can even be said that passers-by know them, but the inferior roots of human beings will always lead to things that are not learned from time to time, Ben Khan wonders, is there any way to change this phenomenon." ”

Hao Jing said: "Great Khan, in the opinion of the ministers, this is only possible when the human mind reaches an ideal state. ”

"It seems impossible to change the inferior roots of human beings, Divine Venerable, you see."

"Great Khan, it is impossible to eliminate the bad roots, but it is not impossible to change the phenomenon of mourning without learning."

Kublai Khan sat up straight and said, "Yes, God, please speak." ”

"The Great Khan, the deity thinks, when the power of the system exceeds the power of the officials, it can be done."

Hao Jing sighed and asked, "Lord Shenzun, what does this mean, don't all dynasties have systems?" ”

Yin Tianya smiled: "Emperor, there are systems, the problem lies in the executor of the system, Emperor Master, the deity asks you, is the system big, or the power of the officials is great, aren't most of the people who violate the system privileged officials, in the eyes of these officials, can the system manage them." ”

Hao Jing's heart fluctuated for a while, as if he had thought of something, but he couldn't figure it out: "Lord Shenzun, in general, the system is basically not right. ”

"That's right, throughout the development of human beings, dynasties change frequently, the time can be hundreds of years, the short time is only a few months, even in the long dynasty, its strong period is relatively short, and they are all Ming monarchy, why can the Ming monarchy make the country strong."

Hao Jing said: "Because Mingjun is good at using people and making good decisions." ”

Yin Tianya praised: "The emperor's words are incisive and concise, but, the emperor has not thought about it, why did the good policy of the Ming monarch come to the next emperor and ask the question, the deity took the previous dynasty as an example, the Han people rarely had the Tang Dynasty Taizong the Great Emperor was wise and martial, and the national policy he formulated was comprehensive, why was it still not able to let the Jiangshan Society be passed on for eternity, the reason for this is that later, those national policies, the system can no longer control the officials at that time, the Great Khan, my shamanism has been inherited for thousands of years, that is, All people will obey the laws of their ancestors unconditionally. ”

Hao Jing said thoughtfully: "The meaning of the gods is to govern the country with the law, and the officials need to implement it unconditionally, which is very close to the view of the Legalists in the Qin period. ”

"Exactly."

"Lord Shenzun, but this seems to be too idealistic, for example, the emperor of a certain dynasty, Shengming, he can rule the country by law, but his successor can overturn the law at any time, which makes this policy impossible to implement for a long time."

Yin Tianya said: "The emperor is worried, the deity has recently read a lot of exotic classics brought back by my soldiers on the Western Expedition, and found some very interesting records, translated into the language of the Han people, which roughly means that in a certain area, it is not the king's power that is the greatest, but a group of people are selected to form a conference center similar to the House of Elders, and then these people formulate various rules and regulations in this area, and then, of course, everyone and everyone in the conference center must abide by these rules and regulations, in their area, Rules are the real 'rulers'. ”

Hao Jing digested it for a while before he said, "Lord Shenzun, what if those people in the conference center break the rules. ”

Yin Tianya said: "In their area, there is also a court, and the officials in it are called judges, and everyone in the area violates the rules, and these judges are responsible for hearing cases. ”

"Then what if the judge himself violates it."

"The conference center has the power to remove the members of the court."

Hao Jing reappeared and said: "Lord Shenzun, my subordinates understand, is this a mutually restrained system of decentralization, the purpose is to realize the words of the Legalists, and rule the country by law." ”

The system of decentralization, the rule of law, this sounds good, the rights are mutually restricted, everyone must do things according to the established rules, but where is the emperor in this region, what rights does the emperor have, does the emperor also want to listen to this so-called conference center or court, Kublai Khan, who has been listening, suddenly said: "Divine Venerable, translate all these materials and give Ben Khan a copy." ”

"Okay, Great Khan, the deity has not yet been fully translated, it will take about ten days, and it will be sent to the Great Khan after all the translations are completed."

"Lord God, subordinates ,,,,,。" Hao Jing was about to speak, but he heard the voice of the official outside the house: "Report, Great Khan, Lord Ashu asks to see." ”

Kublai Khan said: "Ashu is back, Xuan." ”

"The minister will retire first."

"Sir, no, you are the emperor of my dynasty, there is nothing you can't listen to."

Hao Jing's heart was hot: "Xie Da Khan." ”
