These guys from the Commercial Department may have dealt with businessmen too much, and they are always the most talkative with a smile, but it is also common for them to talk without counting, and they have a bit of businessmen's cunning and profit-seeking.
Therefore, Lechang just used the Ministry of Commerce to inform the officials of the outer court that the inner government could cooperate with the outer court. The real long-term cooperation partners of the inner government were in all likelihood still the Taiwei Mansion and the Ministry of Industry.
Of course Li Xingchen knew about Lechang's little thoughts, because he didn't need to guess. When they held Lechang and chatted last night, Lechang had already told everything.
Lechang would not do this kind of thing without Li Xingchen's nod.
She had no interests to pursue in the first place, and all she did was to help Li Xingchen better handle the relationship between the inner court and the outer court.
The two may not deal with each other, but they must not be completely opposed to each other. They must even use their strengths to help each other.
Li Xingchen didn't care about this. It stands to reason that these matters should be integrated into one department. However, Dahan's business has just begun to develop. The regulations of the entire industry and other rules and regulations will inevitably have a big impact.
Loopholes, when everyone does things, they tend to follow established habits.
Often there are too many explanations for this conventional habit.
Because this is not a clause recognized by everyone, it is just a tacit understanding reached by everyone. When one's own interests are threatened, this tacit understanding does not need to exist.
Li Xingchen has received reports from the Ministry of Commerce and the local state capital not once or twice. Some businessmen had conflicts because of some matters that were not clearly stipulated. They refused to give in. In the end, the quarrel went all the way to the local state capital, which made local officials very upset.
Because I have a headache, I often have no choice but to play 50 big shots each at first, but in the end both sides are still not convinced.
Moreover, the court's approach was somewhat intended to deter businessmen, which was obviously not conducive to attracting businessmen to continue to invest locally. Therefore, officials from various local governments were unwilling to do this from the bottom of their hearts. They would rather continue to push this issue up all the way.
Come to the court.
At the same time, there was also a report from the Yushitai. It was precisely because of this inability to determine who was right or wrong that merchants also paid bribes in order to gain the support of the government.
In this regard, Li Xingchen had nothing to do.
Originally, the construction of a society under the rule of law was a process of constantly discovering problems and formulating new laws to prevent them from happening next time. Therefore, even if the Ministry of Punishment of the imperial court had three heads and six arms, it would not be able to predict the outbreak of all conflicts in the cradle.
among.
In order to prevent one family from becoming dominant and concentrating all the power to judge right and wrong in one department, Li Xingchen naturally had no choice but to divide the handling power of these matters and hand them over to the Ministry of Commerce, the Ministry of Punishment and the Internal Affairs Bureau respectively.
At least what is right or wrong must first be discussed by the Ministry of Commerce and the Internal Affairs Bureau, and then turned into a rule and system, and then submitted to the Ministry of Punishment for review and enacted into a law to warn future generations.
The intermediary layer-by-layer review may take longer, but at least it prevents anyone from being wronged. And formulating it into rules and regulations and formulating it into laws is tantamount to putting this matter out for the world to comment on, even if it is receiving benefits from others.
, officials don’t dare to interfere with this, otherwise how will they be able to stop the public complaints when the time comes?
Li Xingchen was standing on the two-story building in the backyard of the inner palace at this time. This was originally a place for the concubines of the harem to rest temporarily when they were supporting the work in the inner palace.
The noise from the front could be heard from time to time, telling Li Xingchen that the department he had established was running at high speed, solving miscellaneous affairs that seemed inconspicuous in the society, but it was also through this positive method and attitude of solving problems,
Little by little, the common people of the Han Dynasty were united around the imperial court.
The operation of the inner palace is to let them know that the imperial court is not just a illusory existence, but is really closely related to their lives. Whether it is firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea, drinking and having fun with a few friends, or reading or seeing a doctor
, travel, Qianqianzongzong, all of this is inseparable from the internal government's maintenance of order, and it is also inseparable from the efforts of the court.
Let the people realize that the imperial court has indeed made great efforts to maintain the normal operation of the entire society. This is an important significance of the existence of the inner government.
Li Xingchen has always been very realistic. He does not expect that he can let the people know that he is a good emperor through benevolent governance. He knows that the governance policies of the Han Dynasty are different from those of previous dynasties. So he must use this method to let everyone know that he is a good emperor.
Develop a sense of belonging to one's identity as a Han citizen.
In other words, Li Xingchen asked the people of the Han Dynasty to go to a certain place, see a flying red flag, see a hospital and academies, and know that this is the land of the Han Dynasty. Naturally, they would defend their people of the Han Dynasty.
They are proud of their identity; naturally, when someone wants to destroy all this, they will firmly oppose it.
Territorial consciousness, national consciousness, and national consciousness are all cultivated subtly in this way.
"Reporting to the Empress, this is another case of land dispute between Taoist temples and temples in the south of the Yangtze River. It was in Wu County. The local government reported it to the Ministry of Punishment first, and the Ministry of Punishment forwarded it to the inner government." The voice of a female official spoke from downstairs.
Li Xingchen suddenly became interested.
Among the many responsibilities undertaken by the inner government, religion is one.
The Han Dynasty did not directly force religion to declare its allegiance to the Han Dynasty, and also retained the right to freely preach religion. However, most of the land in temples and Taoist temples had been taken back by the court. Especially in the Jiangnan area, after the Jin Dynasty moved south, it first occupied
The one with the upper hand is Taoism, represented by the Five Pecks of Rice Religion. Since Emperor Wu of Liang worshiped Buddhism, Buddhism has monopolized the "belief market" in Jiangnan, creating a scene like the "Four Hundred and Eighty Temples in the Southern Dynasties".
Li Xingchen has also visited many state capitals in the south of the Yangtze River, and he is very clear about the 480 temples, which can even be said to be less.
These religious temples control a large amount of land, and these lands that do not require taxation undoubtedly directly affect the income of the imperial court. Li Xingchen even cleaned up the aristocratic family, so naturally he did not care about these temples.
The biggest support of these temples is the wealth accumulated over the years, close relationships with aristocratic families, and many believers.
But against Li Xingchen, they had no power to fight back. No matter how much wealth it is, it is useless. If the imperial soldiers come forward, it all belongs to the imperial court. And the family cannot protect itself, so how can they be willing to intercede for the sake of the temple? Even if they can survive, it will be enough.
Not bad; as for those believers, not to mention.
The Chinese nation has always been a pragmatic nation, so the gods and ghosts do not actually make much difference to this nation. Whoever can bless them and bring them benefits will be believed in. This is why there are various
Such temples can be found throughout Chinese history, from various gods to various historical figures.
