"In that case, let's go ahead. ”

Xiao Feng felt a little relieved, and immediately found a seat and made it.

Seeing Xiao Feng coming here, everyone was also extremely nervous, for fear that one of their actions would make Xiao Feng unhappy, but they would end up with the same fate as Yan Gongnan.

Yan Gongnan was also nervous, he stood on the podium belonging to the scholars of the Southern Dynasty, feeling as if he was being placed on top of a hot pot, surrounded by boiling hot oil, and just wanted to slip down from here.

He pursed his lips, and the long debate before seemed to make his throat slightly dry: "Zhao Chongming, what did you want to say just now?"

Zhao Chongming was a little nervous, his eyes were restlessly rolling around, and when he saw Xiao Feng standing in the audience, he felt a little relieved: "Your Excellency." I just want to ask, even if you really set up the Confucianism test you are talking about, can it really change the things that happened in the Song Dynasty?"

"It's nature!"

Yan Gongnan puffed up his chest hard, and his face showed a look of intoxication: "It is precisely because they have never really taken Confucianism to heart, so I have to promote Confucianism, so that every scholar can understand what the way of the sages is." ”

"Hah!"

couldn't help it, Xiao Feng laughed.

The rest of the scholars did not hold their faces, and they all showed disdain, if Confucianism can really change people's hearts, how could the Song Dynasty become like this?

Zhao Chongming saw everyone's performance in his eyes, and felt even more confident, and said: "It's just a pity, there are many people who are proficient in Confucianism among the former court scholars, but they have never reversed the decline of the Song Dynasty, haven't they? Even if there are Wen Tianxiang, Lu Xiufu and others, it is difficult to reverse the current decadence, isn't it? Otherwise, why did you come here instead of going to Quanzhou to participate in that small imperial court?"

"This ......"

Yan Gongnan's smile froze, and the whole person was directly stunned in place.

If it was anything else, he would naturally have the confidence to deal with it, but Zhao Chongming moved out of the small court directly, that is, he directly hit him seven feet above, making it difficult for him to argue at all.

Hearing this, those scholars of the Southern Dynasty also stiffened and their cheeks flushed, if it was said by the sages, they should have been loyal to the Song Dynasty, and even after the fall of the Song Dynasty, they should have sworn allegiance, but one by one they ran to the Jiangling Mansion, all they wanted was power.

Zhao Chongming's words directly hit everyone's vital points.

"The fall of the previous dynasty is because the emperor is mediocre and favored traitorous ministers, what does it have to do with us?" Ma Shao also felt uncomfortable, he stood up and argued directly.

Zhao Chongming shook his head and replied, "Ha." If the emperor is a faint king, we should naturally advise and even stop it to prevent the country from falling into chaos because of the faint monarch. However, if we really respect Confucianism, we should all be loyal to the country, and not discuss other matters here. ”

"This ......"

Ma Shao was also bowed his head when he said this.

Being said by this, the scholars of the Southern Dynasty present felt even more uncomfortable, and bowed their heads one by one.

Seeing this scene, Zhao Chongming sighed, and then said: "Since this is the case, then why do you still insist on the so-called Confucianism test? Even if you really implement it, it will only repeat the mistakes of the Song Dynasty." It is better to avoid this so-called Confucianism test, so that more talented people can serve the country. Isn't it?"

"Well, maybe you're right. ”

Looking lonely, Yan Gongnan shook his head, and finally admitted defeat, but he looked at Zhao Chongming and asked, "It's just that can you tell me why you want to do this?"

In this debate, if it weren't for Zhao Chongming's rebellion, Yan Gongnan would definitely not have become like this, so that he became the laughing stock of others. And after this defeat, his popularity will also fall to freezing point, and it will be difficult for anyone to support him anymore.

Zhao Chongming's face was slightly hot, and it was naturally impossible for him to tell the real reason in front of everyone, so he just replied: "I just saw that Zulu was always undecided, so I made this plan." After all, for us, the Yuan Army is the first to be solved. ”

"That's just as well. ”

Yan Gongnan looked dazed, feeling that all his previous efforts had been in vain, and he didn't know what he should do now, so he smiled self-deprecatingly, and then walked off the podium.

After this time, he knew that he would never be able to turn over again.

"It seems that this trick does work wonders. ”

Seeing that the other party admitted defeat, Su Wei smiled happily.

"Indeed, it would be too difficult to overwhelm the other person unless you persuaded him. ”

Zhao Wenying's face was flushed, and after their own planning, they finally suppressed each other, and then stood up against everyone's eyes, walked to their own podium, and said to many parliamentarians: "After the previous debate, everyone must have understood that it is too ridiculous to review parliamentarians only with Confucianism. That's why I'm suggesting that the membership of the councillor should be broadened so that other people can get involved, isn't it?"

Councilors of Chang'an naturally clapped their hands, but on the side of the scholars of the Southern Dynasty, the atmosphere was bleak and the attitude was cold.

It would be unacceptable for them to waive the Ordinance.

In the audience, Wang Mu was also happy, and she whispered to Xiao Feng: "Lord, it seems that this time it can really succeed!"

"Let's take a look, because things don't always go so easy. Xiao Feng's eyes were still staring at the scene, her expression was calm as usual, but the look of every councilor could not escape her gaze.

Wang Mu regained his quiet a little and continued to stay by Xiao Feng's side, watching how the council was going.

"If that's the case, are we really going to fail?"

Yan Gongnan's face was worried, he straightened up slightly, and wanted to come forward to speak, but his eyes skimmed over Xiao Feng, who was sitting in the distance, and he felt as if his body had been poured with cement, and the whole person froze in the distance.

"Alas!"

Sighing softly, Ye Li didn't know when he appeared behind Yan Gongnan, he patted Yan Gongnan on the shoulder and said, "This time, let me come." Although he knew that Xiao Feng was here, he looked normal, took it as air, and walked to the opposite side of Zhao Wenying.

Zhao Wenying was a little nervous and looked at each other with a hostile face.

"There's some truth to that. ”

With a smile on the corner of his mouth, Ye Li looked at the person in front of him, his expression was still peaceful, and his eyes seemed to be full of sorrow, and then asked: "It's just that I want to ask, what if the parliamentarian himself has a different kind of malice? What if he only pursues policies for his own selfishness, but puts aside the interests of the country and the people?"

Wang Mu was a little surprised: "Is it him?" The scene of Ye Li and Xiao Feng's argument at the beginning made her remember it deeply, and she naturally recognized this person.

"Naturally. If you talk about counterattacking, only this person can confront Zhao Wenying. Xiao Feng said, I don't know if it's an illusion, Wang Mu feels that the lord seems to be a little excited?

"That's what you want to say?" Zhao Wenying frowned, feeling a little nervous.

Ye Li nodded and replied, "That's right." If I had not been educated in Confucianism, I really found it difficult to think that those parliamentarians really thought of the people. As he spoke, he thoughtfully swept past Zhao Chongming and Qian Wenqing next to him.

Zhao Chongming and Qian Wenqing were stunned, and they only felt like they were sitting on pins and needles.

As far as the purpose of participating in the legislature is concerned, the two of them do have other intentions, and they are not just for the so-called benefit of the people's livelihood.

Zhao Wenying's eyes lit up, and he said: "Oh? According to what you said, isn't it possible to think about the people after being nurtured by Confucianism? Don't forget that many scholars and doctors in the previous dynasty were also familiar with the Confucian classics, but did they really think about it for the people?"

"Definitely. As far as Confucianism and conduct are concerned, the two do not have much to do with each other. ”

Ye Li didn't deny this, but his voice changed, and he said: "It's just that I'm curious, if this councilor makes a mistake, such as committing a crime, or embezzling bribes, or even violating the law and committing murder, what should he do?"

Zhao Wenying only felt funny, and replied bluntly: "Of course not!"

He has also been in the Chang'an Council for many years, so he naturally knows what the bottom line of the councilors is, and it is absolutely impossible to do illegal and criminal things, as evidenced by the Qinglong Gang at the beginning.

"Good. That being the case, I feel that there should be a law to bind the councillor from violating the morals of our dynasty. After all, if you are a councilor, you should naturally be subject to stricter restraints, right?" Ye Li said as he should: "For example, accepting bribes and violating laws and regulations should naturally not be done. Otherwise, how can you be called a councillor?"

"What do you think about this guy? He actually proposed this regulation?" Zhao Wenying was surprised, and he couldn't figure out what Ye Li said.

There are not many mandatory requirements for the behavior of parliamentarians in the Chang'an Parliament, and at most there can be no tax evasion and violation of the law. It was far from the point where a special law was needed, so I was surprised by Ye Lee's proposal.

Ye Li asked, "Isn't it okay?"

"Absolutely. Zhao Wenying replied: "It's just that I'm curious, how should the parliamentary law you mentioned operate in your mouth?"

"Huh. What else could it be? It's just something that a Confucian should do. ”

Ye Li dealt with the past vaguely, looked at Xiao Feng thoughtfully, and urged: "And about this ancestral law, presumably Prime Minister Xiao is also in a hurry, it is better to set it as soon as possible, so that everyone can rest assured." Isn't it?"

"It's nature. ”

Although she didn't know what the other party wanted, Zhao Wenying was still happy.

After all, since he came to Jiangling Mansion, he has been working on the formulation of ancestral laws, and now that the imperial power has been completely hollowed out, and the power of the scholars has also been restricted, it is naturally the best result, that is, to return to Chang'an, which is also a thing worth celebrating.

"In that case, let's start voting. ”

Seeing that everyone had reached an agreement, Xiao Feng also opened his mouth and said.

The members of the council closed their heads together and replied, "I'll understand." ”

Subsequently, a new ancestral law about the Chinese Dynasty was also released.

As a result, Xiao Feng also announced that he had become the new prime minister of the Huaxia Dynasty, and began to lead an army of 500,000 under his command and began to carry out operations against the Yuan army.
