Chapter 319 Restaurant Talks
The stones in the pit are stinky and hard!
Zhao Pu slandered in his heart.
No wonder Li Gang has always been bad, even if his character is too poor, he just blames him for always wanting to be Wei Zheng!
It's just a pity that Song Huizong is not Li Shimin, Song Qinzong is not Tang Taizong, and Zhao Pu ignores these.
As a courtier, you should understand the duties of a courtier, know how to do your job well, and grasp the big and let go of the small, but it's a pity that this Lord Li has been immersed in Wei Zheng's dream and has never woken up.
"You say I'm addicted to fun?" Zhao Pu sneered: "I don't know what I'm playing? Happy what? ”
Li Gang was speechless for a while, and he really couldn't say anything, but he still said stiffly: "Your Majesty, you should review the chapter in the palace." Now is the time when everything is waiting to be revived, how can there be a trace of negligence! “
"You say I'm playful? But where am I playing? Zhao Pu sneered, "At this time, there are only two women in my harem, but you have eighteen concubines, more than me; I don't miss three times a month's meals, but you don't miss a hundred. Now that prices in Yangzhou are soaring, I don't think about how to level prices and how to make people buy food; But all day long impeaching this and scolding that, it seems that what you say is the truth, everyone else is a villain, and I, the emperor, am also a faint king. Li Gang, Master Li, you are really awesome! “
At this time, Zhao Pu was really angry, and he didn't speak politely at all.
Qin Hui only felt that his heart was trembling, this emperor was famous for his good temper, and he had always paid attention to convincing people with reason, even if he was opposed by ministers, he was always reasonable and persuasive, and rarely oppressed with the emperor's authority.
As long as he made sense, even if he spoke excessively, the emperor rarely got angry.
As a result, this reasonable emperor was a little weak and deceitful in the eyes of his courtiers.
But this emperor. Is it really weak and deceitful?
Qin Hui shook his head, this emperor has a very hard temperament, at least since he came to power, he has not signed a contract with the Jin army, and he is a resolute anti-Jin faction. And in the preparation of military affairs, he tried his best to override public opinion and left all the ministers aside. And this emperor has personally been on the battlefield and fought on the front line.
What a weak man?
It's just that many ministers didn't see this and felt that the emperor was easy to speak. Always have to play death advice, corpse advice, and group advice, and it seems that if they don't pick thorns or toss, they can't show their true colors as loyal ministers, and they can't show the style of literati. It doesn't show the characteristics of Wei Zheng's second. It's a live smoke!
And Li Gang is too ignorant of current affairs!
The emperor, just pulled him back to the center. It's a big time. At this moment, you should be in peace, but you have to show your bones.
It can show the wind bones, and you have to find an occasion!
At this time, the emperor was not summoned in the palace, not in the court, but in a restaurant, which was obviously an important matter. There are hidden things. At this time, we should focus on important things, and we should focus on some key things, not on some trivial things. Grind your mouth. But Li Gang ............
At this time, Qin Hui had nothing to say!
You can't live if you do your own evil!
Li Gang listened to it, and also felt that it was too much, but the stubbornness in his bones, coupled with his great achievements, made him a little fluttery, and naturally said some inauthentic words.
After saying it, I also regretted it, at least the emperor can still do it.
Without the extravagance and absurdity of Song Huizong, and without the dazed weakness of Song Qinzong, this emperor was firm in his work and handled everything in an orderly manner, and the situation in the Great Song Dynasty was finally stabilized. Thinking about it carefully, I really can't find too many faults with this emperor, but I just said it, and I can't regret it.
As for admitting mistakes, it is even more impossible!
How could Wei Zheng be wrong? How could he Li Gang make a mistake!
Li Gang still stiffened his neck and said: "Your Majesty, be careful!" Whoever is a ruler should be a saint, save himself every day, be tireless, and not slack off............"
Zhao Pu sneered, disappointed again, no wonder, for the emperor and the emperor, they all like traitorous ministers, but not the so-called loyal ministers.
Could it be that the emperor doesn't know what is good and what is bad, and he doesn't distinguish between loyalty and treachery! Not bad. If you favor the traitorous ministers, at least you won't die, no matter how bad Yang Guozhong and Cai Jing are, they won't kill the emperor; But loyal ministers are different, for the sake of fame and bones, they are willing to make the emperor angry to death!
The literati were greedy and constantly devoured the power of the emperor.
Literati always like to stand on the standpoint of righteousness, stand on the commanding heights of morality to criticize others, as long as they do not conform to their own opinions, it is treacherous and disobedient. There is nothing wrong with the literati, but it is the king and the traitors who are at fault.
The literati would not be emperors, they would not usurp, because they would be loyal subjects, but they would constantly deprive the emperor of his power. The first is to control and exert pressure on public opinion; followed by using morality and etiquette to imprison the emperor; Then there is the control of thoughts, the complete control of the emperor, to become their "holy monarch", or the walking dead!
Which one he gets, the emperor is no longer the emperor, the power is infinitely compressed, and he can't do anything if he wants to change anything.
Just like Emperor Chongzhen at the end of the Ming Dynasty, he also wants to reform and work hard, but the power in his hands is extremely compressed, and there is no possibility of change!
In the Han and Tang dynasties, the great harm to the country was the heroism of the world; In the Song and Ming dynasties, the great harm to the country was the scholars.
Seeing that Li Gang knew his mistakes and did not correct them, Zhao Pu became more and more determined in his heart to transform the scholar class.
………………
seemed to be a little depressed, Zhao Pu ignored Li Gang, and just drank tea with his head down.
Character determines fate, as long as Li Gang's character is like this, then the king will always alienate him, and for some reason, he may return to the court temporarily, but soon after, he will leave again.
Because, from beginning to end, Li Gang was in the wrong position!
It's right to stay away from Li Gang, at least not too much of a wife, at least to get a good mood.
Zhao Pu breathed a sigh of relief, he would not abolish his private interests with public and private, and he would not hug Li Gang to the end, but Li Gang was destined to be alienated from the core.
"This is, what do you think of the post-disaster reconstruction plan?" Zhao Pu was too lazy to speak, he was so angry with Li Gang, at least now his chest was extremely undulating, and his heart was a little chaotic. Thanks to this, he didn't have a heart attack, otherwise it would have been really dangerous! At this time, he simply didn't bother to speak and threw the plan book over.
The plan is nothing more than two points, one is to set up a business bureau to manage prices, set the maximum price of some basic daily necessities, and regulate the market; The second is the establishment of a bank, but the bank is not state-owned, but exists in the form of a private bank, and of course this private bank is subject to the supervision of the imperial court.
At this time, Li Gang looked at the appearance of the emperor's majesty, and finally understood that the people had come to understand that he was not Wei Zheng, but he was honest for a while.
And Qin Hui looked at it carefully, thinking about it.
was silent like this, Zhao Pu was huffing and huffing, and he was too lazy to speak before he was in a good mood; And Qin Hui and Li Gang watched carefully, thinking, and various thoughts flashed in their hearts.
"Your Majesty, the establishment of the Bureau of Commerce, it seems that it will be divided into household departments, and the powers of the three divisions will cause overlapping institutions!" Qin Hui said.
"No, the household department is responsible for the statistics and allocation of money and grain, and the third department is responsible for the review of money and grain. These are reasonable in themselves, but there are also irrationalities, and there are some blind spots that are difficult to control. And the Bureau of Commerce is responsible for these blind spots! Zhao Pu said, "What if there is a fluctuation in the war, or a drought or flood?" The price of grain, cloth, etc., will rise sharply, to the point of shocking! ”
"Materials are scarce, and price increases are normal, but the price increase is too outrageous, beyond the limit, and it is a bit excessive. At that time, the people did not have enough to eat, and the situation was turbulent, which was very unfavorable to our dynasty! The main responsibility of the Bureau of Commerce is the link between the court and the merchants, responsible for the coordination between the court and the merchants, controlling prices, and setting the maximum price of some basic supplies such as grain. You can't cross this line, or I'll cut people, and no one in heaven or on earth can save him! ”
Qin Hui nodded, somewhat understanding, this is a coordinating body.
"What about the Ministry of Commerce?"
Zhao Pu said: "It is not appointed by the imperial court, and it can be recruited from among the merchants." Of course, after becoming an official, you are not allowed to engage in business, everything is done according to the rules, everything is easy to say within the rules, and if you go beyond the rules, then you are welcome!"
"Then why did you set up a bank?" Qin Hui said.
"I have been issuing Jiaozi for many years, and in the early days, Sichuan was trying to make up for the lack of copper coins, but the harm of Jiaozi is too great, and the credit is the worst!" Zhao Pu took a sip of tea, his mood at this time was finally relieved, and he said slowly, "The most important thing in issuing banknotes is credit, and the most important thing in credit is to be able to buy enough goods!" ”
Speaking, Zhao Pu began to talk about some of the functions of banknotes, as well as the necessity of establishing a bank.
Compared with other aspects of money, paper money is faster to collect people's money, but it is also more risky. (To be continued......)
