Chapter 664: That's the truth
"That's a good idea."
Yuan Zhi touched his slippery head and said, "It's just that the Qin Messenger was sent to inspect in each army, how can I compare?" Do you want to send the same person, or do you want to send a different person? If it's the same, I'm worried that some people will say it's unfair, and if it's different, it's hard to compare. ”
"It's not difficult."
Su Youyi said: "We don't send one, we can send one." An inspection group lists people from all walks of life, such as the military department, and naturally wants to examine the quality of the soldiers. There are also people to be sent by the Yushitai to inspect the discipline in the army, and then the use of military salaries, and the quality of food and clothing of soldiers...... Wait a minute. ”
"It's fair to list each item, for example, 10 out of 10, and specify how many points each item reaches."
Su Youyi said with a smile: "You can also hold a martial arts competition, and select outstanding talents from each army to compete together." For example, riding and archery can be compared to one, martial arts can be compared to one, and the art of war can be compared to another...... Soldiers are also compared, generals are also compared, everyone has a chance to come out, and they can also be examined. ”
Prince Yong and Yuanzhi were stunned when they heard it, and when they thought about it, this was indeed a good idea.
Prince Yong said: "It's so good. It can make the people in Beijing, whether it is court officials or ordinary people, pay more attention to the construction of the army. Since the beginning of the previous dynasty, this atmosphere of emphasizing literature over military force has not changed, and the queen mother's move can not only encourage the officers and soldiers in the army, but also make the men who have not yet entered the army yearn, and there will be more people in the army, which is a good thing. ”
Yuan Zhi heard this, but felt that it was wrong, "Uncle Wang, now is the era of peace, what do we want so many men to join the army?" If this move really encourages civilian boys to join the army, according to me, the selection criteria for soldiers should be drafted. Don't be strong enough, don't be brave enough, don't even be smart enough. ”
"The emperor means ......"
"In times of peace, if you want to choose, you should choose high-quality soldiers to join the army. What we lack in the army now is talent, not numbers. What do you say, Queen Mother? ”
Su Youyi listened to his judgment, nodded and smiled with satisfaction, and even Prince Yong smiled and said: "The emperor is high, the minister didn't expect it to be so deep, or what the emperor said makes sense." ”
Yuan Zhi was a little embarrassed, "Where, it was Uncle Wang's good words that caused me to have these thoughts." ”
Su Youyi said: "What the emperor said is very good. Rather than waiting until war to recruit soldiers, it is better to improve the quality of soldiers in peacetime. Those who are old, weak, sick and disabled, who should be given pensions, will be given pensions, and then they can be sent back to their hometowns to work as farmers. Agriculture is the foundation of the country, and in the military, it is best to let young people with young strength and flexible brains go. ”
The three of them talked very happily, and as soon as you said something to me, we set a rough prototype of this matter.
Yuan Zhi said: "In that case, why don't you call the cabinet and the people of the Hanlin Academy, and draw up a charter at this time?" ”
Prince Yong looked at Su Youyi, and Su Youyi smiled: "Okay, but it's not in Kunning Palace, it's better to go to Qianqing Palace for major government affairs." Uncle Yongwang accompanied the emperor up, and I won't go. ”
Motoji opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but he didn't know where to start for a while.
He could clearly feel that Su Youyi had gradually delegated power to him since he pulled Prince Yong, Su Zhiming and Xue Ge Lao to resist him in the court.
A lot of things let him decide, and even Su Youyi didn't read many excerpts.
This kind of decentralization is a great good thing for the royal family members in the court, as well as some conservatives who are unwilling to come to the court.
The ministers all praised the Queen Mother for her advance and retreat, and she was not proud of her achievements at all, but Yuanzhi felt a little inexplicable in his heart.
He is sixteen years old, and he will be married in two years.
Everyone thought that Su Youyi would be happy if he gave him power, but in fact, he didn't feel happy, but hoped that Su Youyi would take care of it more.
Here is his trust in Su Youyi.
Naturally, this decentralization also moved him.
Su Youyi never thought of getting involved in his imperial power from beginning to end, but was dedicated to being an assistant and helping him with all her heart.
If his biological mother and the original partner of the first emperor, Empress Jiang, was here, and now she is the queen mother, can she do better than Su Youyi?
Motoji thinks it may not be.
His heart ached for a moment.
Su Youyi didn't know what he was thinking, so she only said, "Go ahead, but there is still a little reminder to the emperor, and call the people from the military department to negotiate." In the end, the cabinet and the Hanlin Yuan are both civilian officials, and they may not know about military generals. The people in the military department understand that if there are some things that are easier said than done, they can improve them according to the actual situation. ”
She couldn't have thought it through.
"Hey."
Yuan Zhi answered, and the two of them said goodbye to Prince Yong and went to the Qianqing Palace.
Xiao Jizi has already sent someone to invite all the adults, according to what Su Youyi said, the cabinet and the Hanlin Academy, as well as several chief officials of the Ministry of War.
When he came out of Kunning Palace, seeing Yuan Zhi thoughtfully, Prince Yong said: "What's wrong with the emperor, isn't Fang Cai still very happy to talk, don't you think there is something wrong with this idea?" ”
Yuan Zhi shook his head, "The queen mother mentioned it, naturally there is no problem." I just sighed that the queen mother treated me too well. ”
The young man's handsome face wrinkled into a bitter melon face, but his mouth said, "The queen mother treats me too well", if people who don't know see it, they think that he is a child who has been abused by his stepmother, and he is talking back!
Prince Yong couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Yuan Zhi looked up at him, "What is Uncle Wang laughing at?" ”
Prince Yong couldn't restrain himself, covered his mouth with one hand, and arched his hand again: "The emperor forgives the sin, but the minister really can't help it." Forgive the ministers for talking too much, the queen mother treats the emperor well, isn't this good? What else is the emperor worried about? ”
Yuan Zhi wrinkled his nose, "Others don't know, doesn't Uncle Wang know?" I have received too much favor from my mother since I was a child, and how can I not be sad when I see how she thinks about me? ”
Prince Yong smiled and waved his hand, "The emperor doesn't have to. Do you think the Queen Mother cares too much about you, that's why she delegates power so much? ”
"Or else?"
"I see, this matter may not have an absolute relationship with the emperor. The Queen Mother is an assertive person, and she also has her own rules and bottom line, telling her to seek power and usurp the throne, which she is not willing to do. Besides, I'm afraid that according to her temperament, she will be tired of calling her a female emperor! ”
"Poof."
At this time, Motoji couldn't hold back, and he laughed out loud.
It seems to be the truth.
He finally relaxed in his heart, and pulled Prince Yong to talk about other things, "In this case, I think the queen mother's proposal for things in the army this time is very good, and we must make a difference." By the way, Uncle Wang, look at the problem of this competition, can we do this......"
