Faced with Zhou Xiang's promise, Wei Tianzhong blushed and could drip blood. This was like being slapped hard by His Majesty and he had nothing to say. Although Zhao Bing was very annoyed, he was not furious. He just ordered Lu Xiufu and others to cooperate and repair the Taimiao as soon as possible. He would enter the city and settle in the Beigong before the New Year, and then lead the troops out of the city, and let Zhou Mi stay in the city to handle the entry matters and prepare to perform his duties. He did not say a word on his way back to Qiantang Palace. Everyone knew that the little emperor was angry, so naturally no one would make it boring.

"It's really time to kill this man!" Zhao Bing walked around the house, but his anger was still not gone. After drinking a glass of water, he said angrily.

"Official family, what's wrong with today? You're so angry?" Su Lan asked softly for the little emperor.

"It's really annoying that this guy actually used such a clumsy trick to stop me from entering the city." Zhao Bing said angrily.

"Stop the official family from entering the city? And why!" Su Lan frowned and was also very surprised when she heard this. This kind of thing was like the master who arrived at the door of the house but was blocked by the slave.

"It's all trivial matters that cannot be put on the table. They think they can take advantage of the problem by preventing me from entering the city and putting me in vain." Zhao Bing sneered.

"How do the officials know?" Su Lan asked.

"It's very simple. The announcements issued in the city are all in the name of the Secretariat or the Secretariat, rather than using imperial decrees." Zhao Bing spread his hands and said.

"They are so official and can be punished according to the law, so why bother to get angry!" Su Lan held the tea channel.

"Punishment according to the law?! They are all old fried dough sticks, so naturally I won't let me catch the handle. For those minor crimes, I can only be punished and the salary will be fined, which will make it difficult for me to lose my roots. If it is not done well, I will also make me feel deemed." Zhao Bing said with a wry smile.

Yao Liangchen and others refused to let themselves enter the city under the pretext of damage to the palace. To outsiders, it was reasonable. After all, the emperor had to have a house that matched his identity to show the majesty of the emperor. If he built a large-scale construction to restore the palace, he could be given the name of luxury and pleasure without restoration. Anyway, they always had something to say, and it was beyond their expectations that they chose the Beigong, so they said such unreliable reasons to stop him.

But these things are really not a sin, let alone a big mistake. Of course, it is not impossible to force them to be charged with offenses or deceiving, but they will become a fool. Moreover, they can make a mistake in their work, not doing things in detail, and they are not strict in their management, and they can only defend themselves on the grounds that they are not doing things well, and then get a little salary down.

Someone must have said that you are stupid! A modern person who travels through the past doesn’t know what it means to govern the country according to law. Those who are lazy and do nothing can dismiss them from office, offer them public office, and even charge them for dereliction of duty and let them eat for several years. Do you think Zhao Bing doesn’t want to do that, there is nothing he can do, neither the political environment nor the theoretical foundation allows him to do this. If he is not convinced, let’s try it if he doesn’t accept it!

You should know that in ancient countries, most of the ancient countries had a secret law period before they had a code. The upper aristocratic society believed that the more hidden the criminal law, the better, and they must not be known to the people. This would help the aristocrats to deal with the people at will and increase the terror and mystery of autocracy. In the Spring and Autumn Period of China, Zichan was determined to break this tradition. He forged a large cauldron and cast the national legal provisions on it, put the cauldron and publicize it to the world in the prosperous places in the city, and strictly acted in accordance with the law, increasing social transparency, setting a precedent for government affairs disclosure, and also a major legal publicity and education activity.

This should be the first public code in our country. However, because Zichan casting a criminal record broke the secret political tradition of "the punishment is unknown and the power is unpredictable" in Chinese history, it should not be severely criticized by some nobles. However, the value of Zichan casting a tripod is not only the promulgation of these laws, but can be said to have opened the great prelude to the Chinese legal system.

In the Spring and Autumn Period, there was also a founder of Shen Buhe, who was later called one of the three major schools of Legalism. He studied art and the main focus was on the management of the bureaucratic system. He reformed the organizational structure of South Korea, which is the so-called "following the name and responsibilities". Following the name and responsibilities include two levels of meaning. One is to clarify the scope of responsibilities of each position to avoid unclear functions and cross-functional functions; the other is to determine your power based on your position, assess the work results according to the position responsibilities, and establish a work responsibility system and a responsibility accountability system in the present words.

Shin Buhe believes that if you have your duties, your responsibilities are to do your job well. Beyond your duties is to overtake power and violate the law. His duties are similar to the jurisdiction we mentioned today. Our current jurisdiction is divided into hierarchical jurisdiction, regional jurisdiction, and departmental jurisdiction. It is estimated that Shin Buhe also had such a system at that time, defining the scope of authority for each level, each department, and each region. Shin Buhe has effectively improved the administrative efficiency of the state power by strengthening the administration of officials, implementing the work responsibility system and the accountability system, making South Korea appear in a vibrant situation, but it is still unable to start and end well.

Zhao Bing felt that if China could follow the path of the legal system, perhaps China's feudal social system would have been broken long ago, and it would not have been a semi-feudal social form until the 20th century. History cannot be assumed that since the reign of Confucianism in Han and Wu, Confucianism has become the only orthodox theory. Confucius's words have almost become a famous saying on the pros and cons of Confucianism and Law, "Tao it with politics, align it with punishment, and avoid the people without shame; Tao it with virtue, align it with ritual, and be shameless." As the Chinese people have been influenced by Confucianism for a long time, their misunderstandings about Legalism have become deeper and deeper. Legalism has been described by Confucian scholars throughout the ages as mean and ruthless.

Is this really true? The Legalists are really so bad, and is Confucianism really that good? In fact, Zhao Bing knew best at this time that Confucianism is better for himself. Why? In essence, the starting point of Confucianism and Legalists are both to maintain centralization, and both families also attempt to limit the power of the supreme ruler and avoid the king doing whatever he wants. The tight curse that Confucianism sticks to the king is the way of heaven, and the king mainly follows the way of heaven, and loves the people. The Legalists put the shackles of the law on the king, and rule on the law and devotes his private affairs.

If you are the king of a country, are you not stupid? Are you willing to use Legalism or Confucianism? Most people will choose Confucianism. Confucianism praises you as the most sage and moral model, but it would be strange if you don’t get dizzy. Confucianism limits you to you just are elastic bands with strong roots and elasticity. The so-called way of heaven really knows that unless you commit a great rebellion, the way of heaven will hardly care about you.

On the other hand, the Legalists are not so tactful. The Legalists say that you are the same as your emperor, not a true dragon emperor, but just an ordinary little fish and shrimp. You can rule the country just because you are born well, and you will be dizzy when you hear this. What’s even more terrible is that the Legalists always recite the spell of the law, saying that the law cannot be modified at will, and whether you are happy or not, you must act according to the law. Even if it is not big or small, you must handle it according to the law. You must be a role model for abiding by the law.

Think about it, you can act recklessly, and the court and the people will regard you as a god, shouting every day, and offering good things to offer, and farting can be regarded as a golden and jade rule. The Legalists not only disrespect you, but also pull you off the altar, with a sword of the law hanging above their heads, and maybe they will be dismissed one day. The answer is simple, of course, this is why the emperors of all dynasties chose Confucianism and fewer Legalism.

Zhao Bing has studied Confucianism for so many years and is clear that the value of Confucianism is that he put forward noble moral pursuits and social ideals of harmony, which has given society and the people high goals. However, as a strategy for governing the country, he has shortcomings. He is an idealist who is good at theory, and even the speech of the sages and teachers is used as a standard for his actions. He uses morality as a law, which is also a guide to the law.

However, morality is too general, such as requiring that the old and young people give up their seats on the bus, otherwise the beheading will be beheaded. However, the standards are too high and ordinary people cannot achieve it at all. Therefore, hypocrisy is prevalent and bribery is carried out. Looking through thousands of years of history, it is not difficult to find that under the rule of Confucianism, besides hypocrisy and distortion of human nature, it is a fraud and bribery. Therefore, Zhao Bing believed that Confucianism could only be used as an individual ideological and moral education, but it is not a skill for governing the country. And all the dynasties have been mixed with Confucianism. When the army was raised and the country was established, it was mostly Legalists, and Confucianism was used more.

However, Zhao Bing was embarrassed. When he first arrived in this world, he did not understand these things, and he had no experience in governing the country and the military. So he referred to his previous life's management model to manage the enterprises, and instead implicitly integrated the rule of law foundation of following the name and responsibilities, which made the generals' office form a style of doing things with one's care and doing their best. However, with the move of the dynasty, the system of governing the country with Confucianism was brought to Qiongzhou. Although he also resisted,... if it could be implemented thoroughly, he might not be able to hold on.

Therefore, Zhao Bing was self-inflicted today, but as the biggest beneficiary of the Confucian and Legal rule, he had to suffer this unhappy. Fortunately, he insisted on governing the army with law and did not allow it to affect the army. The old family of Qiandi still maintained the habit of orders and was able to regain some face for himself and gave some warnings to those restless guys, which was more effective than a punishment for a salary.

To be precise, Zhao Bing is angry with Wei Tianzhong today, and also with himself. He found that it is really difficult for people to choose between selfish interests and group interests. Although he is helpless and unable to change, he still feels quite distressed and helpless in his heart. He feels confused and helpless. He is more guilty about killing a thief and unable to turn the world around.

However, Zhao Bing's trip to Lin'an City was not in vain. At the next morning meeting, Lu Xiufu had ordered the cleaning of residents around Zongyang Palace and the expansion of the Zhensheng Palace so that all the gods and immortals in the North Palace could be "invited" there to settle there. Wei Tianzhong also assisted in mobilizing the materials needed for repair and collecting the imperial objects scattered from the palace to prepare for the needs; at the same time, he began to mobilize craftsmen to renovate the Taimiao and create a ceremonial war. The Ministry of Rites presented the itinerary for the entry ceremony and a list of details.

Zhao Bing followed the review and the most concerned thing he is at the moment was of course the expansion of the army. At this time, the Song army had all been put into the battlefield except for the 10th Infantry Division who remained in Qiongzhou. However, to protect the long Yangtze River defense line and guard the recovered prefectures, it is definitely not enough to stay close to the more than 100,000 troops. Now, in addition to the establishment of the inland waters and the recruitment of 100,000 new soldiers, he still feels that it is not enough to fill the vacancy.

Now the four divisions led by Zhao Mengjin have reached Jiangzhou, and have all recovered important towns in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River and moved to defense on the spot. He issued an order to appoint Zhao Mengjin as the commander of Jiangnan East Road, responsible for the defense from Jiankang to Jiangzhou and the garrison of the prefecture. The first division is stationed in Jiankang, with Chen Fenglin as the governor; the second division is stationed in Wuhu, with Liu Zhixue as the governor; the third division is stationed in Chizhou, with Zhuang Siqi as the governor; the fourth division is stationed in Jiangzhou, with Sun Kai as the governor; the fifth division is stationed in Shaoxing, with Ran Anguo as the governor.

Of course, it is difficult to protect such a large territory with this little force. Zhao Bing issued an order to expand the regiment into divisions based on each division, and to expand the artillery battalion. Then it was reorganized into an army, with three infantry divisions, military baggage regiments, guard regiments and cavalry regiments, artillery regiments and a scout battalion. Each army inherited its original number, and its subordinate divisions were changed to the 101 Division, 102 Division and 103 Divisions, and each army was so on. The 10th Division is now in Qiongzhou, and the rest of the divisions can be handled as follows after the war is over.

In this way, each army has a force of nearly 40,000, which can increase its force by 300,000, and the imperial guards can reach 500,000. Considering the war to restore the country in the future, the second-line corps will be formed, which will be garrisoned in various places in peacetime, and as a reserve force during wartime, it will still become a wing army as a convention. However, due to financial resources, it can only be included in the plan for the time being. After the war comes to an end, the situation will slow down.

Zhao Bing knew that this kind of military deployment that focuses on the outside and neglects the inside was very inappropriate. Once something happened inside, he had to draw the imperial guards to suppress them. Therefore, he could only order local prefectures to form village troops first, and they were responsible for local public security and to combat rebellion. Another measure was to implement the new policy as soon as possible, appease the people's hearts, eliminate the remnants of the Mongol Yuan and traitors, and eliminate unstable factors.

The large-scale military expansion brought about a large demand for weapons and military funds. Zhao Bing knew that it was difficult to ensure supply by relying solely on the strength of Duzuoyuan and Jiangzuosi. He could only expand the scale of Jiangzuosi and increase the output of various firearms, while handing over some auxiliary armor and weapons to private workshops to produce them so that they could ensure the needs. However, it greatly increased fiscal expenditure. The family's funds saved in the past few years were almost exhausted in just a few months, and were all supported by seizuosi and confiscated property.

This made Zhao Bing sigh that war is really not a joke. The speed of burning money is so fast. His good days are so short. After so many years, I just had a few extra money in my pocket, but it disappeared in a blink of an eye. If this continues, my small treasury will not be able to be saved, and the days of worry are here again...
