Volume 1 Wisdom Fighting the Capital Chapter 43, Leisurely Wise Man

On the first day of Xu Wuji's errand in the household department, he stirred up the top and bottom of the Sijin Department, and there were many discussions and emotions. Pan Wenjuan, a member of the household department, heard that his son-in-law Zhang Bo came to complain, at first he was suspicious, and then saw that Jiang Chongmin, the household department in charge of the Department of Finance, also brought two officials to report, and they were all the same person, and he couldn't help but suddenly feel a wave of anger in his chest, and said in his heart, even if you Xu Wuxian came in at a young age, but on the first day of doing things, he made such a big move, but he didn't take my household department seriously. So he immediately got up and led everyone, and broke into the Sijin Office with great momentum, and came to Xu Wuxian to ask for guilt.

Before Pan Wenjuan's words fell, he suddenly heard someone coughing behind him, although it was just a cough, but the voice was too familiar, wasn't it his long-time colleague, and now he was deeply favored by the emperor, and he was promoted to three levels in a row, and became the person who was his boss?...... "Could it be that even Lord Shilang is alarmed, sin, sin!" Pan Wenjuan hurriedly looked behind him......

"What's the matter...... Is it so lively?" a gray-haired, crutche-clad old man slowly walked in through the door...... Although his left leg was lame, his gait was still calm and steady, and the expression on his face was even more light...... He is the newly appointed Tobe Squire Qiu Mingli.

"See Lord Squire......" Everyone present hurriedly bowed and saluted when they saw their own cousin appear. Pan Wenjuan took a step forward, and while holding Qiu Mingli, he said earnestly: "It's Lord Qiu...... This side of the road is slippery, be careful, be careful...... A few small things can be handled by the lowly position, how dare you work and work for Lord Shilang to go out in person......"

Pan Wenjuan said secretly: "It is also appropriate for you Xu Wu's illness and bad luck! That Qiu Mingli is famous in the court, 'Desperate San Lang is not afraid of death', even a tiger like Tsing Yiwei dares to touch him, and now he is deeply favored, it is rumored that he is still the teacher of the prince and the king of Wei, and the king of Wei has a special secret, if you hit his hands, can you still have it......!" Thinking of this, Pan Wenjuan couldn't help but show joy on his face, and wanted to tell Qiu Mingli all the "crimes" of Xu Wuxian's "undisciplined and rebellious" to Qiu Mingli......

Qiu Mingli waved his hand, stopped Pan Wenjuan's words, and said to everyone and Yanyan:

"The old man has nothing to do, come and see my students......"

Everyone looked at each other, and they all secretly guessed when there was a student of Lord Shilang in our company's financial office, and then saw Qiu Shilang pointing to the new household experience, and said with a smile:

"Disease-free...... You come with me......"

Xu Wuxian responded, and in everyone's shocked expressions, he silently followed Qiu Mingli and walked out of the official office of the Financial Department......

It wasn't until Qiu Mingli and Xu Wuxian had left everyone's sight, and after a moment of silence, the crowd boiled again:

"I can't see that this little household experience is actually a student of Lord Shilang!"

"This Xu experience, since he is a student of Lord Qiu, why didn't he explain it earlier?"

"No wonder! If he Xu Xu was not a student of Qiu Shilang, how could he dare to be so fearless?"

"Only Lord Qiu's means can make a person who has no half of his fame get an official body from the seventh grade as soon as he enters the officialdom...... Hey, how come I don't have such good luck?......"

"I heard that this time I recommend Xu's experience...... It's not just Lord Qiu, but there is also King Wei behind...... Obedient...... Incredible!"

......

Pan Wenjuan listened to the chatter of the crowd constantly, and the more he listened, the more he didn't feel good, he glared at his son-in-law fiercely, stomped his right foot, "hummed" in his nostrils, flicked the sleeves of his robe, and strode away......

Zhang Bo, who was left with a depressed face, covered his hot cheeks with his left hand, and covered his forehead with a sweat towel in his right hand......

Jiang Chongmin, the household department in charge of the Department of Finance, naturally felt uncomfortable in his heart, and when he saw that everyone was still talking to each other, he chattered endlessly, and couldn't help but shout:

"The household department, the important weapon of the country, how can Ronger and others be so noisy!

......

Qiu Mingli took Wuxian to his signature room, ordered Wuxian to sit down, ordered the scribe to bring tea, and told the rest of the people to retreat, Fang He smiled and said:

"No disease...... If the old man is a little late, will you even clean up the household member Pan Wenjuan?......

He bowed to him without illness and said, "The student has no condition today, and I hope the teacher will forgive him!"

Qiu Mingli's face narrowed, and he said seriously:

"Disease-free...... The ancients had a saying, 'The wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it', which is the way of the official, and it is necessary to know that the rigid is easy to break, and the soft can last for a long time. In the future, you will live in the court, surrounded by officials, melons and plums, and cause trouble at every turn, so you must be humble and cautious in your words and deeds...... Don't be reckless...... When is it time to endure...... You still need to bear with me......"

He bowed his hand without illness and said: "What the teacher said is very true! However, in the student's chest, there is also another foolish opinion......

Qiu Mingli let out an "oh" and asked, "Tell me about it......

Get up without illness and say:

"There is no disease and less study, and I deeply admire the way of the ancient sages, and a gentleman should do something and not do something. If you have no disease, you think that the way of the world is that evil cannot defeat the good, but the righteous can control the evil! But those who have a strong and righteous spirit in their chests are not afraid of the evil villain! But all the treacherous and evil people, if you let him an inch today, he will enter a foot tomorrow. If you only know how to avoid it, won't you grow up in vain and evil, and secretly help the evil wind? In the long run, the good will be deceived everywhere, and the wicked will prevail, and the vast people will live in vast, will you not be sad......

Qiu Mingli shook his head when he heard this, but he was secretly surprised, and said in his heart that thirty years ago, he was also so high-minded and unsold, but thirty years later, inadvertently, why was he so sophisticated by the fame of this temple and the world?

"It seems that we are also dying!" Qiu Mingli sighed unconsciously

......

Almost at the same time, in the Zichen Hall of Daming Palace in Chang'an City, Emperor Li Chongsheng leaned on the imperial couch, holding a few books in his hand, and looked at them casually. In front of him, on his right, sat the crown prince Li Ren. Standing with their hands hanging down on the left side are several important ministers. Standing on the right side are several princes.

Li Chongsheng raised his eyelids and said casually:

"Today...... I called a few of my sons, as well as a few of your prime ministers, to discuss the matter of changing the law......"

Li Chongsheng's sharp gaze swept over the people standing in the hall one by one, all of them were above the ten thousand people under one person, shaking their legs on weekdays, and the city gate was shaking three times......

Seeing that no one responded, Li Chongsheng said to the crown prince Li Ren:

"Prince, tell me about ......"

Li Ren hurriedly got up and said: "Changing the law is a major event of the country, and my father plans for the common people of the society, bothers for the people of the world, and strives to change the law...... In order to change the law and strengthen the country, my father dreamed of sleeping all night and working day and night, and he felt the same way...... This is really my great fortune and the blessing of the people...... The sons should follow their fathers, saddle up before and after the horse, and do their best to ......"

Li Chongsheng waved his hand to interrupt Li Ren's words and said:

"Okay, okay! Don't say these good words, nonsense, and useless words for now...... I want to hear something useful...... This is a change...... How to change it?...... That one...... Yuanyulou ...... You were recommended by the prince, and I handed over the household department to you, what do you think of this change of law?"

Hubu Shangshu Yuanyulou hurriedly walked out from the end of the train, leaned down and knelt down, and said:

"Your Majesty, I think that the change of law affects the foundation of the country, and it cannot be achieved overnight. The rent adjustment method created by Emperor Taizong has been prevalent for more than 200 years, and His Majesty's heavenly grace has been severed, and the Weijia is all over the world, which is my 70-year prosperous age. Nowadays, if you want to change to collecting taxes on a mere basis, you must first collect taxes on the land, household registration, people, government and people, cantonment, and foreigners of the whole country...... Re-measure item by item and register and make a record, so that the chores are cumbersome and miscellaneous...... The huge amount of action not only consumes manpower and material resources, but also wastes time, and it is not ...... less."

Li Chongsheng frowned slightly when he heard this, and said:

"So tell me, how long will it take to complete the change?"

Yuan Yulou's back was already sweating slightly, and he couldn't help but snort:

"I think it...... I thought it was ...... When ......"

"You don't have to guess, I know, you think it's too difficult to change the law, it's better to ...... Don't change......" Li Chongsheng said awe-inspiringly.

Yuan Yulou was so frightened that he fell to the ground, and his back was like cold sweat......

Li Chongsheng threw away the notebook in his hand, sat up, and Gao Liangshi on the side saw this, and hurriedly ran up in small steps, and carefully picked up a pair of gold-threaded cloud boots in front of the imperial couch for the emperor to put on. Li Chongsheng's eyes looked at the one standing at the beginning of the prime minister, and said:

"Shunde, tell me about ......"

A tall and mighty man about seventy years old, wearing a purple and red auspicious cloud official robe, a pair of eagle eyes as bright as lightning, and a tall and mighty person, walked slowly to the front of the hall, bowed down and said: "Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that what Yuan Shangshu said is not unreasonable, and the change of law involves too wide...... Even if it slightly damages His Majesty's Longwei Holy Hope, it is a crime that we will die for as courtiers......"

Li Chongsheng sighed: "Shunde...... You are the prime minister, in charge of Shangshu Province, in charge of six departments, and all the officials take you as an example, and you are also so forward-looking and timid......?"

Sun Shunde, the prime minister of Shangshu Province, replied, "Your Majesty...... Lao Chen lived to this age, not afraid of ghosts and gods, not afraid of life and death, for fear of His Majesty's Sacred Heart displeased...... Everything the old minister said was from the bottom of his heart......"

Li Chongsheng stood up, waved his hand and said:

"Alright...... The things of ghosts and gods are feared even by me...... Stand down!"

After the eldest grandson Shunde returned to the train, Li Chongsheng paced back and forth in front of the imperial couch, and his eyes fell on the prince standing first on the right, and he said:

"Zhi'er, you are the eldest son of the emperor, let's talk about it......"

The prince who came out of the first place on the right has slightly gray hair, is fifty years old, fat and bloated, has a fat round face, three locks of slender beard, and is the eldest son of the emperor, Li Zhi, the king of Chu, who was crowned Prince Qizhu.

Li Zhi walked to the front of the hall with a fat belly, saluted with both hands, and his voice was already old, and he said:

"Father...... Erchen also felt that the prime minister's words were not unreasonable...... This is a good thing, but ...... Erchen thought ......"

Li Chongsheng was very impatient to hear it in his heart, and immediately waved his hand to stop Li Zhi's words, and said:

"You also think it's better not to stay?...... Alright, alright, step aside!"

Li Chongsheng's slightly worried eyes once again cast on the princes behind Li Zhi, but at this time, they all lowered their heads one by one, not daring to look at their fathers, except for one person, that is, the fourth prince standing in the second place, Li Jin, the king of Wei.

However, the emperor's gaze did not stay on Li Jin's body, he looked directly at the eighth prince of the next head, Li Xi, the king of Jin.

Among the princes, except for Li Yi, the third son of the Shenwang Pavilion, Li Chongsheng had to admit that in terms of appearance, he was so handsome and handsome and graceful, and it was naturally Li Xi.

"Xi'er, you are my 'Eight Sages King'...... I want to hear from you......"

Thirty-six-year-old Li Ci is unusually well maintained, looking like a handsome scholar in his twenties, but his face has an air of wealth and wealth. At this moment, he walked leisurely to the front of the hall, bowed and saluted, and said calmly:

"Father, the son-in-law heard that before, the household department was in charge of the Qiu Ming ceremony, and the book directly stated the outline of the twelve changes. The son thinks that in the whole world, there is no one who knows people well than his father. Since the father has appointed the Qiu Ming Rite Household Servant Lang, the son is foolish, it is better to appoint the Qiu Servant Lang with full power, so that he can fully implement the law change, if the change of the law can be beneficial to the community, then the people of the world will be blessed with the grace of the emperor...... If the change of law is unfavorable, the people's strength is wasted, complaints are everywhere, and the state funds are damaged, then the crime will be severely punished to thank the people......"

......

As soon as Li Ci said this, the people standing on both sides of the hall, whether it was Sun Shunde, the prime minister of Shangshu Province, or Zhongshu Ling Yao Shanzong, the official of Zhongshu Province, Ouyang Li, the official of Menxia Province, and the princes, Li Ren, the prince standing in front of the palace, and Yuan Yulou, who was prostrate on the ground, all nodded frequently, and they all secretly reasoned in their hearts.

There are only two people, and the mood is different.

One is Li Jin, the king of Wei, who is worried in his eyes at the moment......

The other is Emperor Li Chongsheng, who has mixed tastes in his heart......

......
