Chapter 109: Ying Zheng, Changsun Wuji, please be honest with me

After Li Shimin spoke out in the history chat group, he had some quarrels with Wu Zetian, Yang Guang, Lu Zhi, Xiang Yu, Chongzhen and others, but he gradually integrated into the history chat group.

one day.

Liu Bang said in the history chat group: "The palace is so lively today. The First Emperor and Changsun Wuji started arguing with each other. The argument was very fierce. I think Changsun Wuji is not far from being demoted. I think the First Emperor can be controlled just as soon as he becomes the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty? Haha, this is the First Emperor, not Li Chengqian."

When I was bored, Liu Bang would come to the history chat group to chat with Li Shimin.

Liu Bang is now the King of Jin, but the only prince who can still stay in Chang'an City at the age of age is a signature of Ying Zheng.

He wanted to be a free king in his life and enjoy life. If Ying Zheng needed it, he would go to run errands and work hard labor, and he was carefree. It was so comfortable.

Li Shimin asked curiously: "What are they quarreling about? Changsun Wuji is very talented and I believe he can help the First Emperor."

Liu Bang smiled and said, "What else can you do? Because you made Changsun Wuji a minister of life and had great power. If the First Emperor wanted to introduce a new policy for reform, Changsun Wuji opposed it. How could he not argue?"

Li Shimin has always been very fond of Changsun Wuji and specifically asked Changsun Wuji to assist Li Chengqian, but the man's calculations are not as good as God's calculations. Li Chengqian became Ying Zheng.

"The First Emperor has just succeeded to the throne. He should first stabilize the court, stabilize the people's hearts, and not easily make big fuss." Li Shimin said: "What's more, the Tang Dynasty has flourished in the 24th year of Zhenguan. The First Emperor just needs to follow the steps to make the Tang Dynasty continue to flourish."

Li Shimin felt that he was worthy of the Emperor of Eternality. He destroyed the Eastern Turks, Gaochang, Tubo, Goguryeo and other foreign countries, and nearly doubled the territory. Then the people were well fed and well-fed, and the economy was prosperous, and the population more than doubled during the Zhenguan period. In such a prosperous era, can he not be as good as the Emperor of the First Emperor and cannot become the Emperor of Eternality!

Liu Bang said: "Although Zhenguan made the Tang Dynasty prosperous, the First Emperor and his team had a bigger pattern. They wanted to conquer the world, so they needed stronger national strength to support it. The reform was to continuously increase national strength."

Conquer the world!

It has been more than ten days since I entered the history chat group. Li Shimin also knew that the world was big and that the Tang Dynasty was just a small part of it.

If you want to know what the world is like, Li Shimin thinks his situation will be very big!

He asked, "How is the First Emperor ready to reform and what new policies are implemented?"

Liu Bang replied: "At present, Emperor Shin-Hao and others have proposed several reform directions. The first is to comprehensively and thoroughly investigate the population and fields of the Tang Dynasty, and then implement new policies such as the one-whip method.

Second, the government military system should be changed to the recruitment system. Now the Tang Dynasty has sufficient treasury, and it can fully support the recruitment system, establish a formal full-time army, and other related new policies on military system reform.

The third is to encourage the people to go out to take risks and trade. The court will also arrange caravans to go out to sea to do business in Southeast Asia, the Indian Peninsula, and Western Europe.

Fourth, we must establish a navy, clear out coastal pirates, seize Ryukyu Island, and then go to the ocean to find the American continent...

Fifth, it is to establish an industrial foundation, standardize industry and commerce, and build some industrial cities...

Sixth, abolish the administrative systems of fen towns, governors, roads, etc., and change them to state, county, and county systems to strengthen centralization...

It’s probably these six conveniences!”

Li Shimin thought about these reform directions carefully, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that Emperor Shi was trying to rebuild the Tang Dynasty. No wonder Changsun Wuji would object to such a large situation. If he had no knowledge of history, no knowledge of Ying Zheng and the others, he would have opposed it.

The benefits involved are too great and too wide, and you will encounter many troubles. If you don’t pay attention, you may cause a big disaster.

Take the examination of the population and fields as an example. It means being enemies of the aristocratic families, gentry, and rich people in the world. Only they will hide the land of people in large quantities. If you touch the interests of others, you will naturally be resisted. The first wave is that officials in the court who represent the interests of these classes will rise up and oppose and stop them.

Although many poor families emerged through the imperial examinations for more than 20 years in Zhenguan, people from aristocratic families still hold more than half of the official positions in the court.

Even if the court forcibly implements the new policy, the officials below will be perfunctory or protect the interests of these classes in disguise.

Of course, this is for ordinary emperors. What they want to do now is Ying Zheng, Zhang Hao and others' support and help, and the chances of success are still very high.

After Li Shimin figured it out, he was worried about Changsun Wuji: "Changsun Wuji did not know the reason, did not know the historical development, and had limitations. I am afraid that he would be dealt with by the First Emperor soon. Alas, things in the world are unpredictable. I hope the First Emperor should not be too strict with Changsun Wuji."

Changsun Wuji is already in his fifties. He doesn't have much energy to accept new things and implement new policies. He just wants Li Chengqian to inherit Li Shimin's national policy, seek stability, and continue the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty.

Recently, Changsun Wuji has also been very distressed. He has quarreled with the emperor many times, and neither side has said he is dissatisfied with each other!

"Your Majesty has also changed!"

Changsun Wuji felt that after Li Chengqian became the emperor, he was no longer the prince of the good baby before. He had become domineering and ambitious!

"You can't let Your Majesty go astray!"

Changsun Wuji was not ready to give in. He wanted to join forces with more civil and military officials to persuade Li Chengqian (Ying Zheng), and even invited all the civil and military officials who followed Li Shimin to conquer the country and govern the country.

For a time, all the civil and military officials in the court seemed to be united on the front, constantly advising the emperor through various means.

Even the queen and several concubines blew the wind beside the pillow, which made Ying Zheng very upset.

In Ying Zheng's view, it was because the new policy violated the interests of these classes that they strongly opposed it!

"Every change in history has been accompanied by bloody storms!"

Ying Zheng was firm in his heart and stood there if he didn't want to support him.

So not long after, Ying Zheng directly abolished the Secretariat, the Secretariat, and the lower body, established a cabinet, and led the government affairs.

Changsun Wuji was dismissed from prime minister, no, the position of prime minister in the Tang Dynasty was gone.

Not only Changsun Wuji, but also Chu Suiliang, who was the Right Pushe (the right prime minister) of Shangshu, was unemployed!

Changsun Wuji and Chu Suiliang were unable to enter the cabinet. The cabinet members were all young people in their thirties and forties, including Zhang Hao, Chongzhen, Xue Rengui and others.

At the same time, Ying Zheng issued an order to increase the imperial examination this year and select more talents for the court.

Of course, Ying Zheng (Li Chengqian) also has the support of some aristocratic families, such as Hou Junji family, Niu Jinda family, Fang Yiai family, Sun family, Cheng Yaojin family, Du Ruhui family, etc.

The military power is in the hands of Ying Zheng, and he is not panicked.

Ying Zheng's tough attitude disappointed many civil and military officials, and he was dissatisfied with Changsun Wuji and Chu Suiliang.

People with ulterior motives also want to win over these people, and have made ill-gotten plans, such as Li Ke in the fiefdom.

Suddenly, undercurrents surged.
