Chapter 376: Separation of Powers under Internal Struggle (Subscription Requested)

These two have always been the benchmark of Guangzhou's business circles, once they make a move to ship as soon as possible, other large businesses will immediately follow up, for a time the market suddenly more materials, prices have further dropped, to give the people of Guangzhou a kind of most difficult period is about to pass, will gradually get better in the future.

"These merchants responded very quickly, which saved us a lot of effort. After seeing that prices were falling and stabilizing, Wang Jiuxuan couldn't help but say to Li Xian happily.

"Now at most, it's just a scam out of some of their inventory, and the most important thing is the plan on the other side and the shaving order, which is the fundamental way to solve the problem. Li Xian nodded and said.

"That's nature. Wang Jiuxuan replied.

After a few days, the well-informed citizens of Guangzhou discovered that there was something new in Guangzhou, that is, there was a new gadget on the market, referred to as newspapers, also known as news.

It is said that the people of Guangzhou are no strangers to newspapers, and there were originally three newspapers in Guangzhou, but they were all foreign-language newspapers issued by foreigners, and Li Xian, Governor Lin, and others also published articles in the newspapers at the beginning.

However, these are all foreign-language newspapers run by foreigners, but the newspapers issued this time are in Chinese, or run by the Huaxia Guangfu Army, and their full name is "Guangdong News."

In the first issue of this newspaper, a large amount of space was devoted to the trial of the case some time ago, including the reasons for the incident and the protests of the scholars, and even the specific details of the trial.

If this is the case, it can be regarded as a new way to open up the atmosphere and communicate the upper and lower news.

However, this Guangdong News newspaper is very objective about other things, but it is suspected of smearing Zhang Tongsheng and other scholars.

According to the description of the Guangzhou News, in order to seek justice for the local villagers, the scholars voluntarily shaved their hair and changed clothes, and handed over the letter to Li Xian, and Li Shuai was very moved by the righteousness of the scholars, and gave everyone ten oceans on the spot as a reward.

In short, this is a shameless reversal of black and white, referring to the act of referring to the deer as a horse.

However, according to the situation of the scholars, it is inevitable that they will not be able to argue that cutting off the braids was not voluntary, but was forcibly held down and executed by a group of Qiu Ba.

Even if you say that, it is not at all comparable to the influence of a newspaper that can publish tens of thousands of points at a time, and besides, people in this era have always only focused on the result, not the process.

Since the braids of these scholars have been cut, no matter what the reason is, they are all strangers to the Qing court, and the court will definitely cut off the heads of these scholars to correct the discipline, and the scholars who are really interested in the court naturally want those unlucky people to keep their distance.

For this kind of result, whether it is Li Xian or Wang Jiuxuan, they are happy to see it.

"Originally, we must punish the officer who committed the crime, otherwise the army feels that he is a privileged class and starts to behave indiscriminately, which will be bad.

It's just that, considering some of the emotions of the military, it is very inappropriate to cut off the head directly, which will chill the hearts of many people, and this is indeed manslaughter, which cannot be completely treated as intentional homicide.

Therefore, a sentence of 12 years in prison is acceptable.

However, the crux of this matter is that when we sentence ourselves to military officers, we must also give certain punishments to the scholars who make trouble, otherwise it will make people feel that we are weak and polite, and it is not good.

Therefore, if we force them to shave their hair, we can give people the feeling that we are also punishing these scholars, soothe the emotions of the army, and by the way, we can also drive a wedge between the scholars.

With this precedent, no matter who wants to pick the head in the future, we must be more or less scrupulous, understanding that we will not follow their train of thought, and will definitely shave off the mastermind's braids.

In short, there is no way out, and the most important thing is to establish a truly reliable judicial system. Li Xian explained to Wang Jiuxuan.

"It is not easy to establish a sound judicial system. Wang Jiuxuan said with a wry smile.

To be honest, after Wang Jiuxuan watched Li Xian's trial, he also muttered in his heart, not knowing whether it was appropriate or inappropriate to do so.

Perhaps, how to deal with this case is not a big deal, quickly cut through the mess and solve the problem in the shortest possible time, this is the most crucial, Wang Jiuxuan thought to himself.

Of course, as the inaugural issue of China's first newspaper, it will not just take one case to fill the page.

In the "Guangdong News," he also explained in detail the future ruling structure of the Huaxia Liberation Army, that is, to follow the example of the United States to carry out the separation of powers and establish three major ruling systems: the "Executive Yuan," the "Military and Political Yuan," and the "Judicial Yuan."

Among them, the "Executive Yuan" is personally in charge of Xuanzheng, the master of the Sanyuan Guanguan, responsible for various administrative affairs, to put it bluntly, all kinds of internal affairs, and Zhang Sicheng, the treasurer of the Pan family who defected to the mixed Yuan Sect, served as the vice president;

The "Military and Political Yuan" is in charge of the military, with Li Xian in charge and Wang Jiuxuan as his deputy;

The "Judicial Yuan" is responsible for everything from legislation to the establishment of law enforcement agencies and the judicial system, and the promotion of the legal system, and is in charge of the former Sanyuanguan elder Yuan Fang, with Zhao Hu of the Leizhou Mixed Yuan Sect as his deputy.

This kind of personnel appointment is unexpected by many people, and there are many things that the military top brass do not understand, but in fact, it is the inevitable result of mutual compromise and cooperation between the Sanyuan Concept and the Mixed Yuan Sect.

First of all, it is inevitable that Li Xian will be in charge of the military, that is, no matter how much Sanyuan Guan wants to control his own army, he also understands that it is most suitable for Li Xian to be in charge of the military forces of the two factions, after all, from training to actual combat ability, it is very different whether Li Xian is in charge or not.

In this way, Sanyuanguan will inevitably send powerful people to become Li Xian's deputies, divide his power, and at the same time control his own line of soldiers and officers.

No matter in terms of prestige, qualifications, merit, level and martial arts, there is only Wang Jiuxuan who can undertake this important responsibility, and there is only one person in the entire Sanyuan Temple.

The key is not because of the conflict between Zhou Dayun and Li Xian, but after the high-level of Sanyuanguan made a careful investigation of the army, they found that the combat effectiveness of the army had really decreased a lot compared with before entering the city, so they had to be vigilant and let Wang Jiuxuan, who was originally sent as the prefect, return to take charge of the military, after all, the army is the foundation of a rebel organization.

Wang Jiuxuan returned to the army, and the position of the top administrative officer in Guangzhou was vacated, and after Li Xian was defaulted to the top military commander, Sanyuanguan didn't want to give away the post of president of the Executive Yuan, so only Xuanzheng himself was in charge, so that the Sanyuan Meditation could not compete for it.

Of course, according to a certain tacit understanding, the Sanyuan Concept also asked the Mixed Yuan Sect to recommend a candidate to be Xuanzheng's deputy, but Li Xian launched Zhang Sicheng, which was a bit unexpected.

Zhang Sicheng has not joined the Mixed Yuan Sect for a long time, and since he was forced to pass by Li Xian from the Pan family, he has been in charge of logistics and material operation, and his reputation is not obvious, and he is not a descendant.

In fact, many people thought that this position was more suitable for General Zhao Hu, who had always been regarded as the second person in the Mixed Yuan Sect, but Li Xianli rejected the public opinion and put Zhang Sicheng in such a high position.
