Chapter 261: The Great Change of the Imperial Court

After Ying Zheng returned to Xianyang City, a court meeting was held the next day. 33

At this time, Baiguan and Yingzheng were already in place.

Ying Zheng was the first to speak: "Ladies and gentlemen, I went to the emperor this time and got a lot of teachings.

Among them is the unification of script and currency, which Meng Yi has already submitted to the cabinet.

Cabinet, do you have a good solution? ”

Fu Zikang, the history of Zhili, stood up and said: "Returning to Your Majesty, unify the language, the Qin seal of Daqin has just been promulgated, and many people have not fully learned it, and now it is promulgating simplified characters, and the cabinet thinks it is really inappropriate."

As for the unified currency, the cabinet discussed it, it was feasible, and there was a concrete plan, which could be implemented as long as His Majesty agreed. ”

Ying Zheng frowned slightly and said: "If the imperial court can enforce the Qin seal, why can't it enforce simplified characters?" ”

"Returning to Your Majesty." Fu Zikang said again, "Scholars in the world should not learn two languages, otherwise readers will not know what to do." It's not good for the world. ”

"Then abolish the use of simplified Chinese characters in Qin Seal, and this matter will be arranged by Fu Sheng, Fu Sheng, can you do it?" Ying Zheng looked at Fu Sheng and asked.

Fu Sheng stood up and replied: "Wechen can do it, but Wechen hopes that His Majesty can use movable type printing to print a comparison of Qin Seal and simplified Chinese characters, so that people in the world can buy it." ”

"That's right."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Fu Sheng stepped aside.

Ying Zheng looked at Fu Zikang and said slowly: "Fu Zikang, as one of the Nine Qings, I will leave the matter of currency unification to you, can you do it?" ”

"Wechen will definitely not let Your Majesty down." Fu Zikang said solemnly.

Ying Zheng nodded with satisfaction and said, "You can step down." ”

"No."

Fu Zikang stepped aside.

"Xiao He."

"The minister is here." Xiao He walked out of the crowd.

Ying Zheng said: "The emperor said that the night market can be opened, I plan to hand over this matter to you in charge, if you don't understand, you can look for Feng Quji, Li Si and Zhang Liang to discuss together."

The three of you must explain the matter of the night market clearly and clearly, and don't let Xiao He have any doubts. ”

"No." Li Si and the four of them answered at the same time.

"Your Majesty." Xiao He said, "The night market sounds very good to the people, but it is very difficult to do.

The first thing to solve is the darkness, as we all know, the night is dark, you can't see your fingers, although you can use torches to illuminate the streets and alleys, but it is easy to cause fires.

Secondly, the night is also a time when thieves are infested, and the reason for the curfew is to prevent thieves from infesting at night and reduce the losses of the people.

Finally, it's security.

Great Qin currently dominates the Six Kingdoms, and although it seems to be peaceful and prosperous, the remnants of the Six Kingdoms are still there, and if they act at night, it will be a disaster for the imperial court. ”

"Hahaha......" Ying Zheng laughed, "The matter of the night, you can rest assured, I have not said anything about the lantern because I think everyone needs to rest well at night and does not need to come out."

However, I didn't expect that the night market can actually benefit the people, so the night is not a problem.

As for fire prevention, we will arrange a water tank near the shop, and at the same time, Xianyang City has set up a fire station, and the emperor has designed a fire fighting water truck, which can quickly reach the fire scene and put out the fire as quickly as possible.

As for the theft, Zhang Liang, you have followed the emperor and know the emperor's methods, this matter is up to you, set up a night patrol team as soon as possible, and cooperate with the forbidden army of the imperial court to patrol Xianyang City.

Ensure the safety of the night market Xianyang City. ”

"No." Zhang Liang responded.

"Von Bo." Ying Zheng said again.

"Wechen is here." Feng Bo stood up from the crowd.

Ying Zheng said: "As a royal historian, you have the right to supervise hundreds of officials, but the territory of Great Qin is so large, you can't be a small imperial historian who can do everything."

Therefore, I decided to increase the number of people in the Imperial Historian's Mansion, and turn the yamen into a superintendent of imperial history, no longer participating in court politics, but supervising the world, not only hundreds of officials, but also any officials in the world and any injustice.

However, the supervision of the imperial history only has the responsibility of supervision, and the injustices seen and the mistakes made by hundreds of officials can be informed of the court governor's office. ”

"Your Majesty, by all means." Feng Quji said, "Imperial Doctor is ranked among the three dukes, if he is not in the court, how can he become one of the three dukes?" ”

Ying Zheng said: "What about one of the three princes? The Imperial Doctor supervises hundreds of officials, do you only supervise the officials of the court and the central government, and ignore the people of the world?

You have already been to the emperor, don't you know that everything the emperor does is people-oriented, and only with the people can there be Daqin.

Do you really intend to let Great Qin II die? ”

"Wechen doesn't dare." Feng Qujian knelt down.

The others also knelt down and shouted together, "Your Majesty is angry. ”

actually let the First Emperor say that Great Qin II died, which is enough to prove that the First Emperor is very angry now, and it can also show that in fact, the First Emperor cares very much about the death of Great Qin II in his heart.

Ying Zheng calmed down a little and said, "Get up." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Everyone stood up, including Feng Quji.

Ying Zheng looked at Feng Bo and continued: "Feng Bo, the supervision of the Imperial History Yamen is officially established, and you are in charge, and then the personnel will be formed, and after arranging affairs, it will be handed over to the cabinet.

Cabinet, you analyze it, increase or decrease it, and then hand it over to me for confirmation, and I will hand it over to the emperor for review.

This is also to examine the ability of the cabinet, and if the cabinet does not have this ability, I will find some people from it to join the cabinet after the imperial examination.

You understand. ”

"Wechen understands." The two prime ministers on the left and right and Jiuqing said at the same time.

Ying Zheng nodded and continued: "Meng Yi. ”

"Wechen is here." Meng Yi is out of the ranks.

"As a court lieutenant, you are in charge of the national criminal law, but I believe that there will be unjust, false and wrongful cases in the whole world, so I have decided to increase the number of officials in the court governor's mansion and retry all cases in the world.

Execute according to the new Qin law. ”

"No." Meng Yi responded.

Ying Zheng said again: "Li Si." ”

"The minister is here." Li Si stepped forward and said.

"The new Qin law has been delayed for a long time, can it be revised?" Ying Zheng asked.

"Back to Your Majesty, it has been revised, and it is currently being confirmed and reviewed again and again, for fear that there will be some flaws." Lees said.

Ying Zheng said: "As long as there is no typo, the emperor once said that if the law is not suitable, it will be revised until it is satisfied."

Since I want to practice benevolent government, then Qin law should be revised to be more tolerant, but tolerance does not mean that we can act arbitrarily.

Offenders still need to be punished according to the law, but sometimes they can also be extrajudicially merciful, and the law is merciless, and people are merciful.

Whether or not extrajudicial favors can be granted needs to be investigated by the Imperial Governor's Office, not that any official has the right to extrajudicial favors. ”

"Your Majesty is merciful." The officials shouted again.

Some people died, but not completely......
