In early October 1940, the Imperial Army was ready to attack the Soviet Union, and the Air Force was also transferring the main force from the east to the northwest as planned.

This will be the second time that Zhao Tingzhu has waged war here.

Prior to this, in order to prevent a possible large-scale military attack by the Imperial Army, the Soviet Union had already transferred the 6th Tank Army back to the Chelyabinsk region, and once again stepped up the recruitment of more troops throughout the country, and a large number of soldiers without any training were directly thrown into the battlefield.

Germany, for its part, had been negotiating with the Reich, especially through its Polish relations, in an attempt to reach a new agreement before the Reich sent troops, but on the whole, Germany welcomed the Reich's military presence and did not want the Reich to steal the fruits of Germany's victory.

The news that the Empire might attack the Soviet Union to liberate Kazakhstan was a mixed blessing for the British Empire, the good news was that the struggle between China and Britain in South Asia would certainly slow down, and the bad news was that China would not hesitate to go to war with the Soviet Union to promote the reading power of Kazakhstan, which in itself was enough to prove how firm the Chinese Empire's anti-Asian colonization stance, and sooner or later the spearhead would be directed at the British Empire.

For Yuben, this is just a symbol of the good news.

China had enough strength to start two wars at the same time, except for the air force that was limited by the number of pilots, the Central Military Department of the Reich did not transfer troops from the battlefield to support the Northern Coalition Army, everything went according to plan, and the Reich did not have tensions because it wanted to start two wars at the same time.

The sheer size of the population base and the capacity of industry are testaments to the extent of the Empire's military potential.

This is something that neither the Soviet Union nor Germany can match, let alone the United Kingdom and Britain.

…… Those who know history can roughly remember that in the summer of 1910, before the Changsha Uprising, there was a tragedy that shocked the whole country, an ordinary family could not afford to raise their children because of soaring food prices, and finally a family of four committed suicide by jumping into the river, which directly led to the Changsha Rebellion and the subsequent New Army Uprising, which also opened the prelude to the establishment of the Chinese Empire.

Thirty years later, in 1940, Changsha once again had a tragedy that shook the whole country, an event that made the whole country angry.

In June 1940, the Huguang area suffered a once-in-50-year flood, at this time the main projects of the national water conservancy projects have been completed, people have no special worries about this, as a result, in late June, the Oujiang Reservoir in Changsha suddenly collapsed, and the flood immediately inundated the surrounding 14 counties and towns, which not only led to major economic casualties, but also led to thousands of deaths.

After this incident, the central cabinet and the Hunan provincial government reacted quite quickly, and immediately mobilized the whole country to carry out rescue and disaster relief, but in the subsequent investigation, it was found that there were a large number of corners in the construction process of the Oujiang Reservoir, and even in the bidding process, there were obviously a number of unreasonable matters.

The seriousness of the case, as well as the Hunan Provincial Political Axe and Clean Government Bureau and the procuratorial organs encountered special resistance in handling the case, the Central Investigation Bureau began to bypass the central cabinet to carry out a large-scale investigation of the officials and enterprises involved, and the final result was shocking, in the current Central Cabinet Minister of Agriculture and Water Conservancy Li Shucheng served as the director of the Hunan Department of Agriculture and Water Conservancy between 1930 and 1937, a total of 17 major water conservancy projects in Hunan Province had serious corruption problems. The amount of the project involved exceeded 250 million yuan, and Li Shucheng's personal embezzlement was about 20 million yuan.

This is not only the largest corruption and bribery case in the 30-year history of the founding of the empire, but also a copy of the Yuan Shikai case of that year.

Even worse than the previous one is that many of the construction companies involved in this case have a background in the youth gang association, two members of the Hunan Provincial Bureau of Integrity were murdered during the handling of the case, and many other staff members were retaliated against and hijacked.

Due to the seriousness of the case, Emperor Song Biao, who had not been concerned about political affairs for many years, also arranged for Crown Prince Yuhua to personally investigate the matter in his capacity as deputy director of the Central Investigation Bureau, and the inner court was also sent to Changsha twice by the chief Chen Jiayou to pacify the angry masses on behalf of the emperor and the Chinese Royal Charity Federation.

During this period, due to the serious involvement of the Green Gang, many groups of villagers who went to the provincial government to petition were violently beaten by the members of the Green Gang on the way, which once again led to the death of many people.

At this point, under the intensive attention of the national media, not only did it have a great impact on the 40-year election of the Liberation Party, but people also began to pay real attention to China's illegal associations, as the nominee of the Minister of Agriculture and Water Resources Li Shucheng, Prime Minister Gu Weijun also suffered the biggest crisis of confidence in history.

Under the unprecedentedly good election, Song Jiaoren, the chairman of the party and the candidate for prime minister, asked the inner court to arrange a time to meet Emperor Song Biao on September 10 of this year.

In the past few years, Emperor Song Biao and Song Jiaoren have only met twice, and the contact is not as close as in the past, but the relationship is still good.

There are always special circumstances in the world, and Emperor Song Biao also needs to leave a way back for himself, in case Song Jiaoren leads the ** party to succeed in the election, becomes the largest party in the Central Congress, and elects the prime minister successfully, then Emperor Song Biao still has to continue to maintain cooperation with Song Jiaoren.

Therefore, as the ** party has gradually achieved some partial election successes over the years, Emperor Song Biao has kept a certain distance from both parties politically, and easily does not attack one side or support the other.

Emperor Song Biao actually knew very well that China's Liberation Revolution had been successful, and now people were thinking more about the new ** revolution, which is also the reason why Song Jiaoren's popularity among the people, especially among the middle class, has increased greatly in recent years.

There will always be a lot of problems in the development of society to a certain extent, and China's current problems are not many on the surface, whether it is Sovietism, populism, illegal associations, corruption, anti-war, the gap between the rich and the poor, and so on, they are not particularly serious in the handling of the multiple cabinets of the Liberation Party.

It is also undeniable that the long-term rule of the Liberation Party has indeed caused moths to exist within some local provincial political axes, and most of the major corruption cases discovered by the Central Investigation Bureau in the past ten years are concentrated at the provincial political axe level, and especially in inland provinces such as Hunan and Hubei, where local media are underdeveloped and party activities are not flourishing.

** The party has been able to get the opportunity to govern in the provincial government in the coastal Fujian and Liangguang over the years, especially in Guangdong Province, winning the election for three consecutive terms, and in the Guangdong Provincial Assembly election the year before last, Wang Zhaoming, chairman of the Guangfu Party, personally sat in Guangzhou, and finally failed to help the candidate Qiao Zhengliang of the Guangfu Party to be elected, and lost the election with a disparity of 1.14 million votes, provoking Wang Zhaoming to almost resign in the party to apologize.

Now it's Gu Weijun's turn to do this.

According to the provisions of the Imperial Constitution, the parliamentary election is three months earlier than the prime minister's election, and the list of new parliamentarians is determined in October, and then the new imperial prime minister is jointly elected by the parliamentarians.

The constitutional rule that 50% of the votes can be elected and 70% can be removed has made the central cabinets of the empire very stable, and the good results of the Restoration Party have made the three prime ministers the best choices, and indeed there are very few major poll fluctuations.

This is clearly an exception.

After the ** party chairman Song Jiaoren made a request for an audience, Emperor Song Biao also hesitated for a few days before approving the meeting.

Emperor Song Biao asked the inner court to arrange an afternoon to meet Song Jiaoren in Xuanzheng Garden, and arranged a dinner to entertain Song Jiaoren's family.

There were two Xuanzheng Gardens in the Empire, one was the Xuanzheng Garden in Zhongnanhai, which had become part of the National Museum of the Empire, and the other was the Xuanzheng Garden in the Central Palace, which, unlike the Cizheng Garden, was mostly dedicated to meeting members of Congress and people of various political parties.

On the morning of that day, Song Biao was still dealing with the affairs of the Central Military Department, and when he returned to the Central Palace in the afternoon, he arranged for Song Jiaoren to meet at the Xuanzheng Garden.

It's still hot in Kyoto in September.

Xuanzheng Garden is a newly built imperial palace after 1935, with a plumbing system that regulates the temperature through the flow of water in the copper pipes between the floor, walls, and copper pillars, cooling down in summer and heating up in winter.

Compared with the central air conditioning used in the General Office of the Central Palace, the Xuanzheng Garden is more comfortable, and Emperor Song Biao also likes to deal with state affairs in the Xuanzheng Garden in the past two years, and even receives foreign guests.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, Emperor Song Biao took a nap for an hour and then washed up, and then went to Xuanzheng Garden to drink afternoon tea.

Song Jiaoren cautiously waited here for nearly ten minutes before seeing His Majesty the Emperor.

After seeing Song Jiaoren, Emperor Song Biao seemed very ordinary, and after Song Jiaoren bowed and saluted, he invited Song Jiaoren to sit down and drink tea with him.

The years are unforgiving.

Song Jiaoren is also a gray-haired person over sixty years old, the style of the past is still there, these years, he is no longer in the cabinet, has been actively promoting the reform within the party, 1930 to 1935 had been the governor of Zhejiang, with a very high personal prestige easily elected, but also opened the curtain of Zhejiang Province to become the first party and the liberation party to alternate power.

Under Song Jiaoren's reforms, the party changed the situation of competing with the Liberation Party in the past and adjusted its policies in favor of the middle class, which made the party's support rate in the coastal cities rise steadily, but in the inland areas, the party still failed to have a solid base of popular support.

The competition between the two parties is always inevitable, Wang Zhaoming is a person who likes to make a fuss on paper, he attacks the ** party only populism, there is no real **ism, the real **ism should be the national doctrine of the whole people to enjoy the well-being, while Song Jiaoren criticized the Guangfu Party for mixing fish and dragons, colluding, controlling local institutions and other illegal matters, as well as despising the middle class, ignoring the reform of the social welfare system and so on.

Only with criticism can there be progress, the problem is that the Guangfu Party is firmly rooted, the election campaign can always be won by a big victory, and there is already a lack of internal reform momentum, which is not a situation that Gu Weijun can reverse alone.

To talk about party support, without the support of Emperor Song Biao and the royal family, Song Jiaoren's ** party would be difficult to support to this day, but the meeting between the two today is a little embarrassing.

Song Biao drank tea silently, chewing walnut kernels, as if Song Jiaoren beside him was not present.

Song Jiaoren still wore a black suit and dress with a blue tie today, and the emperor was still wearing his civilian clothes as always, a dragon robe with glass and red patterns on a white background, looking very quiet.

Red-white, yellow, and blue-black were the most favored by Emperor Song Biao in the emperor's dragon robe, but red-white did wear more.

**。

Emperor Song Biao has been thinking about this matter.

He carefully studied the matter of ** and capitalism, and for a special country like the empire, he thought that there were two thorniest problems that ** and capitalism could bring: one was the populist separatism of the regional caste; Second, the gap between the rich and the poor has widened.

To this day, the empire still strictly prohibits land annexation, and in the Peasant Protection Act, all peasant households are strictly guaranteed the most basic - as long as they are peasant households, they must in principle own at least 15 acres of land.

If you compare the republic and India in the 21st century, then you will find that the only advantage of the republic is that under the same population and arable land conditions, the republic can guarantee that all peasants have more than a dozen acres of land, while in India, even in the 21st century, the vast majority of land is in the hands of landlords, and very few ordinary Indian farmers have their own land.

No matter how much the world boasts about India's system, Emperor Song Biao has always believed that if this system is at the cost of hundreds of millions of peasants' lives and deaths, it is meaningless, and conversely, even if the other system has all kinds of drawbacks, if it can be forced at the basic level to ensure that all peasants have at least the farmland necessary for survival, then it is absolutely worth existing, and this "all" is as many as one billion people.

It's really not easy.

This is important.

One of the most important aspects of Emperor Song Biao's support for the Restoration Party was that the Liberation Party strongly fulfilled his demand, guaranteeing all peasant households a minimum amount of land in the form of taxes, state subsidies, and state laws.

The method adopted by the Liberation Party is very simple, that is, a large part of the land directly held by the political axe is rented to the peasant households at a low price, and these lands are absolutely not allowed to be transferred, and the peasant households can sign agricultural management rights for more than 60 years at a time.

Local rural cooperatives and agricultural cooperatives are involved in coordination within the village to ensure that every farmer has land to grow, and in most cases, the farmer actually has more land, but there are many farmers who sell their land and rent the public land at a low price.

This kind of public land policy is the focus of the party's attack, which is normal, because the middle class represented by the party has a special interest in this and demands that the public land be banned and allowed to circulate more freely.

Emperor Song Biao hated this, and even now many peasants are actively asking the political axe to approve this proposal, but the political axe should not protect these rich peasants, nor these short-sighted peasants, but more poor peasant households.

To be precise, Emperor Song Biao did hate Sovietism, but in all systems he had to admit that the collective land policy was the only one that satisfied his needs and those of the Chinese peasants.

China has too many people.

It is very difficult to ensure that every peasant family owns land.

At this time, Emperor Song Biao was very worried that one day, the situation would change, land annexation would be allowed, and the peasants would begin to lose the land they relied on for survival, and there were only two ways to solve this problem, one was to open up the empire and expand the territory of the empire on a larger scale; The second is the decline of the empire's population, whether through birth control methods and policies, or through mass emigration.

If you look at it from this perspective, the Empire has been doing this for the past thirty years.

Today, when the population of the empire exceeded the 500 million mark, it is true that about one-fifth of the people lived outside their traditional borders, and the recaptured and newly occupied lands from Soviet Russia alone solved the living space of about 40 million people.

Therefore, expansionism must be a long-term national policy for the empire.

** The party is precisely the main camp of the anti-war forces in the country.

Emperor Song Biao could only say that Song Jiaoren did not have a backache when he stood and spoke, which was the main reason why he reduced his support for the ** party in the past few years and refused to meet Song Jiaoren.

As he grew older, he gradually tended to a conservative policy, and he became more and more disgusted with Song Jiaoren's ** party, and in his opinion, both the ** party and the supporters of the ** party seemed too selfish.

After almost drinking the entire cup of tea, Emperor Song Biao put down the teacup and asked Song Jiaoren very calmly: "You have been running around for the past few years, petitioning for the people, and you are very tired, your body should still be able to hold it, right?" ”

This greeting made Song Jiaoren very useful, because he knew that the emperor was usually not a person who would greet others, and he replied happily: "Back to Your Majesty, my body is definitely fine, the busier I am, the tougher I become." ”

Emperor Song Biao sighed: "That's good. Let's talk about a few serious things, as the ruling party, there are more and more problems within the Liberation Party, and we need to teach a hard lesson, I would like to know, in your opinion, what are the problems of the Liberation Party at this stage? ”

Song Jiaoren thought for a while and replied truthfully: "The problem of the Liberation Party is actually very simple, it is nothing more than the dominance of one party, too arrogant, unable to listen to the opinions of other political parties participating in and discussing politics, and acting arbitrarily. ”

Although he didn't like the policy orientation of the ** party, Emperor Song Biao still maintained the principle of party neutrality as much as possible, and encouraged Song Jiaoren: "They are arrogant bastards, that is your opportunity, just seize the opportunity." ”

Song Jiaoren replied: "That being said, the Liberation Party is also an old political party that can fight election battles, and they have the advantage of being in power, and when the election period comes, they will firmly grasp two big vote warehouses and one big money warehouse, one is the peasant association, the other is the trade union, and the last big money warehouse is, of course, the Far East, Jiangnan, and Nanyang. For example, the Chinese Entrepreneurs Association does donate a political donation to us every year, but the amount given to the Liberation Party is more than ten times that of ours. ”

Song Biao sighed with a smile and said: "The so-called ** is just like that, why not the United States and the United Kingdom." ”

Song Jiaoren could only nod in acknowledgement.

In fact, he knew very well in his heart that every time there was a critical moment, several major consortia controlled by the royal family would still stand behind the Restoration Party without hesitation, and the public land system maintained by the Liberation Party had always been able to choke the big ticket warehouse of the peasant associations in various places.

This was the case with the Empire's ** system, where the provincial councils decided on the governors, and the provincial councillors were selected according to the counties, which meant that the well-funded and well-connected parties always won in the majority of the counties, and finally finalized the majority of seats in the provincial councils.

The election of the provincial parliament is generally one year behind the election of the national parliament, which means that once the central cabinet is established, the central ruling party can influence the provincial elections.

For example, in the 1936 Jiangsu Province and Shanghai Provincial Council elections, the first party originally occupied a certain poll advantage, but at the last moment, Prime Minister Gu Weijun suddenly inspected Shanghai, Nanjing and other places, and issued a bold ambition to continue to support the economic construction of the Yangtze River Delta in the form of central political axe support, as a result, Jiangsu and Shanghai turned the tables at the last moment, but once again appeared in the situation that the Liberation Party occupied more than 7 percent of the seats in the provincial assembly.

In short, Song Jiaoren and his ** party have also been struggling and being suppressed.

Emperor Song Biao was very satisfied with this situation, in fact, he also knew that there were still many problems within the Liberation Party, but if there was no containment of the party, there would be more problems.

Thinking of this, Emperor Song Biao suddenly felt that it was not necessarily a bad thing to support the ** party to win more, as long as the central political axe was relatively stable and let the local government give the ** party half of the chance, it would be enough to teach the Guangfu Party a lesson, and eliminate those arrogant old-fashioned old parliamentarians and officials who thought they were officials.

If you don't take power, you won't expose the problems, and on the other hand, it is not bad to give the party more opportunities to be supervised, and to expose some problems within the party.

Now there are three major political parties in the empire, namely the center-left SPD, the right-wing ** party and the centrist Liberation Party, as for the far-right National Youth Party and the far-left Workers' Party, they are not very popular, and only a very small number of people support them.

The empire adopted a policy of patriarchal separation, so religious associations were not allowed to carry out political activities, trade unions, peasant associations and other social institutions could vote collectively, while the Pure Land Religious Doctrine Association could not vote collectively, and the empire's "Freedom of Politics and Religion Act" also strictly prohibited members of religious groups from voting collectively, and if they were discovered, they would be dealt with severely, to some extent, this could also be regarded as a strict control of Tibetan Buddhism, Lamaism, and Islam.

In the constitution, the empire actually defines the state-led policy as centrist, the difference between the three major political parties is the difference between the center-left and the center-right, the pure left-wing and right-wing parties are not supported by society, and the right-wing liberal color of the party is more respected by the business community, but for the big business, the cooperation with the centrist Liberation Party is obviously more reliable.

Although it is not clear how serious some of the new problems that the Liberation Party has gradually expanded in the past five years, and at the same time does not like the right-wing liberal policies of the Party, Emperor Song Biao felt the need to give the Party some new support at this moment, and threatened the Party more fiercely and forced the Party to carry out major new reforms.

Thinking of this, Song Biao said to Song Jiaoren: "We haven't seen each other for a few years, and I'm still very unfamiliar with some of the new party policies you are now promoting. ”

Song Jiaoren nodded happily, and said from the beginning without hurrying: "The ** party I established has been actively promoting China's ** reform from beginning to end, which is well known to you, Your Majesty, and we have also made outstanding achievements in the past 30 years, actively promoting the process of the empire." Today, the widening gap between the rich and the poor in the country and the problem of industrial monopoly have threatened the future of the empire, and the leadership of the empire in the Asian League has not been truly and effectively reflected, and the liberal anti-colonial movement in Asia has not been fully supported by the empireWe need to correct this and move forward with a fairer society, and we need to make the rich and oligopolies pay more taxes and be more socially responsible, so that the middle class and the general public can benefit. In the international community, we must also pursue new values of fairness, equality between countries, devote greater strength to the anti-colonial movement, consolidate the leadership and interests of the empire in Asia, expand the prestige of the empire in the world, and make the empire a more popular and more just world leader. ”

Song Biao praised: "The idea is very good. ”

Song Jiaoren emphasized: "The most important political demand of the party at this stage is fairness, and the people are calling for fairness, because the development of the imperial society has so far, unfairness has become the public enemy of the people, in the localities, in the townships, there are policies and countermeasures, and it is a very common phenomenon for the local gentry to control power and encroach on the interests of other Kuomintang, and the combination of these gentry, including illegal associations, and the Guangfu Party is an extremely ugly and well-known problem, which is a major obstacle and drawback to China's political clarity." ”

Emperor Song Biao was silent, and he was not particularly supportive of this.

The Central Investigation Bureau has done a relatively detailed investigation into this, and the problem of squire bullies and illegal associations is a big stubborn disease within the empire, but the Central Investigation Bureau does not think that this is the unique drawback of the Liberation Party, and the ** Party also had very serious problems during the period when the Party was in power in Guangdong, Guangxi, Fujian, and Zhejiang.

In other words, it is a fundamental national issue that has little to do with political parties.

**It is not easy to sweep away, but to get rid of the most common problem of squire bullies in the country, it is very complicated, because behind the squire bullies are the monopoly problems of local surnames, in the process of advancing townships, almost more than 70% of the township mayors have been stolen by local surnames, whether it is the Liberation Party, or the **Party, if you want to gain support in the local area, you must cooperate with these people with large surnames and absorb them into the party, The result is the current state of inequality, which is prevalent at the grassroots level throughout the Empire.

Whether it is the first pilot project implemented by Yan Xishan in the early stage of the Anti-Japanese War, or the rural ** election reform implemented by the Republic after the reform and opening up, in the end, all the surnames generally fell into this deep pit.

As for how to solve this problem, to be precise, Gu Weijun and Song Jiaoren are actually helpless, just fighting each other.

This problem also bothered Emperor Song Biao.

Chen Jin once had a proposal, that is, through the introduction of laws to restrict, in the name of "local administrative officials who train young people for the country", strictly limit the age of candidates for township magistrates to no more than 40 years old, encourage young college students to return to their hometowns to participate in the first election, encourage them to engage in politics, and restrict this situation by improving quality and limiting the age level, although it is not a way to cure the root cause, nor may it be able to cure the symptoms, but it is the only good way at present.

In addition, it is certainly necessary to implement stricter rule of law management of problems common in rural areas by strengthening the power and law enforcement space of the judiciary at the town level.

Song Jiaoren took out this problem to attack the Liberation Party, and Emperor Song Biao actually didn't feel anything, because the results of his investigation on this issue were still very clear.

Of course, Song Biao didn't say anything gossipy, political parties are like this, and they always don't miss any opportunity to attack their opponents.

After thinking about it for a while, he decided to bypass this topic, and continued to ask with Song Jiaoren, "What about other questions?" ”

Song Jiaoren originally wanted to make a big attack on this issue, but he felt that the emperor did not want to question this matter, so he had to change the topic and answer: "Secondly, there is the issue of public land, and the public land system must be problematic. As the empire's arable land expands and industry and commerce grow, it is now more important than ever to allow land to circulate freely and to allow land to be annexed within a controlled scale. ”

Song Biao was a little impatient, and said very simply: "If there is a problem, we will first find a way to improve it, if it is abolished because of trouble, will more than tens of millions of peasant households lose their land and become tenant farmers?" What era is this, and does there still have to be a landlord? ”

Song Jiaoren said: "Your Majesty, the ideal of ensuring that everyone has land is indeed great, but such a policy is unreasonable, the social cost of maintaining such a policy is too high, and all kinds of unfair problems emerge in the process of implementation. In many counties in the south, public land can even account for 1/2 of the amount of arable land in a county, but this arable land is basically divided among local farmers. Today, when the industrialization of the empire is so rapid, our industry still lacks a large number of laborers, and the peasants need to be emancipated from the land. ”

Song Biao accused: "You are not solving the problem, but avoiding the problem." The empire now has 170 million people who are farmers, and not every peasant family is good at farming, and they are all good at management, and you can't let social Darwinism run rampant in the empire and let nature eliminate them. Human civilization is advancing, and we have a responsibility to take care of the disadvantaged. The problem you said does exist, but our original intention is good, but the method is wrong, then we should change the method, as long as we work hard, we can always find a suitable solution. You can't grasp this issue as a political issue to hype, yes, this issue is indeed beneficial to the party, but if the public land system is really abolished, will it really be beneficial to the survival of all peasants? ”

Song Jiaoren was silent.

He and Emperor Song Biao have indeed not been in contact for many years, so there is a lack of understanding of the emperor's current political bias, as a leader of a political party, he wants to govern very much, wants to improve China with his own strength, and he also adheres to a lot of his own and the party's philosophy, he and the ** party now have one of the most important core ideas is to ensure social fairness as much as possible.

The empire's public land system was a legacy of the agricultural tax reform policy, because it was mandatory that the amount of cultivated land held above a certain limit would result in a huge additional tax, and the state also had the right to reclaim the excess arable land, through which more than 1/4 of the country's arable land was reclaimed during the Ouyang Geng cabinet.

According to the original idea, Prime Minister Ouyang Geng was considering gradually selling these public lands to farmers with a small amount of arable land, but during the Gu Weijun cabinet, Gu Weijun changed this idea and switched to a policy of cheap leasing, with a policy of compulsory surnames to ensure that everyone had a political commitment to have a land.

To some extent, this policy is the basis for Gu Weijun's two consecutive terms, but in the past decade, there have been a lot of unfairness in the implementation of the public land rental policy, and it is very common for large clans in rural areas to occupy public land in various names.

For example, in a Lijia village, where there are more than 100 households in one clan and account for two-thirds of the number in the village, they can control the village's agricultural cooperative association and the election of the village head, and then use various means to occupy all the public land, and only the surname Li can get the public land and force other peasant families to leave.

At present, there is a political trend in the country, that is, the election of village chiefs is abolished, or the power of village chiefs is restricted, the traditional rural self-government habits are changed, and a universal police station is established in each village, and the police station organization maintains local order, and the distribution and implementation of public land is controlled by the county-level political axe agency, or the county government axe is entrusted to the agricultural association, which can limit the influence of the rural surname to the greatest extent.

This argument has been met with considerable opposition, and if the Liberation Party insists on doing so, it is likely to lose tens of millions of votes, or even more.

Now the empire has a total of 135 million legal voters, and the peasant cooperatives in the towns and villages across the country control about 30 million votes, so this is still a very large vote base, and it is easy to offend.

Gu Weijun didn't dare to do this for a long time, to a large extent, he was afraid of the ** party's repeated on this issue, of course, the party's current initiative and leading policy are more intense than the Guangfu party, their attitude is to directly ban it, but this initiative is really attractive.

Song Biao's view is that the banning itself is wrong and irresponsible, and the unfairness and malfeasance in the process of banning will be more serious.

This afternoon, Song Biao and Song Jiaoren discussed some hot political issues recently, to be honest, I am still quite disappointed, **The party is no longer the **party he likes**, as a more shrewd politician, Song Jiaoren is not the Song Jiaoren in the past.

After holding a royal banquet in the evening to entertain Song Jiaoren and his wife, Song Biao asked Crown Prince Yuhua to personally send Song Jiaoren and his wife away, and he went to the imperial study, called Chen Jin alone, and asked Chen Jin to meet him in the imperial study.

At this moment, the only thing Song Biao can continue to have high hopes for is Chen Jin.

In recent years, Chen Jin's son-in-law has been very close to Emperor Song Biao's attitude on many issues, whether it is foreign policy or the dominant thinking of domestic governance, they have great similarities.

(To be continued)
