Chapter 348 Then form a party!
Zhu Biao looked hopeful.
He had high hopes for Xia Zhibai.
Although he is not very optimistic about it in his heart, because it is too difficult to compromise. This kind of both wanting and wanting is, to a large extent, unrealistic in itself.
But many of the ideas he put forward were actually put forward by Xia Zhibai. As Xia Zhibai was so smart, he could not have imagined the cruel reality he was facing. Therefore, Zhu Biaocai wanted to give it a try and wanted to ask if there was any. That would be great, but if not, there is nothing you can do.
Xia Zhibai frowned slightly.
He didn't speak in a hurry, but looked at the young man beside him.
This young man is very young, but with thick eyebrows and big eyes, he can be said to be like a tree in the wind, and he has a heroic spirit.
Seeing Xia Zhibai looking at him, the young man did not hesitate to give in. He raised his eyes and looked back, but his eyebrows were a little more kind.
Seeing this, Zhu Biao also said: "Xia Xueshi, there is no need to worry. This person is the current Cao Guogong. Li Jinglong is the son of the late Cao Guogong Li Wenzhong. He ascended the throne this year and married Princess Yangcheng in the same year. His current official position is Prince Consort. , but I intend to promote him to the East Palace.”
Zhu Biao briefly introduced Li Jinglong.
Just hearing the words Li Jinglong, Xia Zhibai couldn't help but take a few more glances.
The Ming God of War.
This name was like thunder to his ears.
There are only so few people in the world who can win a battle that is sure to be lost.
However, when he heard that he was marrying Princess Yangcheng, Xia Zhibai suddenly showed a dull look. He had heard about this wedding. Princess Yangcheng was none other than the sister of King Yan Zhu Di. From this point of view, Li Jinglong's history The above approach may not be intentional.
After all, Zhu Yunwen was indeed unpopular at the time.
Seeing Xia Zhibai looking closely at him, Li Jinglong was also a little nervous.
He still admired Xia Zhibai very much. In just a few years, he caused a sudden change in the world and made all the officials in the court uneasy. Especially the salt administration made the entire south tremble. In the world, there are only a handful of officials in history who can achieve this step despite their low official status.
He is only seventeen years old now.
It is the age when one is full of passion and yearns to make achievements.
Xia Zhibai withdrew his gaze and nodded involuntarily: "Yes, a hero comes from a young age. Cao Guogong deserves to be the queen of the generals. His tiger eyes are very majestic."
Zhu Biao also smiled and said: "Our current Cao Guogong is not young, but he has dabbled in a lot and has unique insights into many aspects. He is not only knowledgeable about military affairs, but also has a lot of insight into politics. It is also my purpose to talk to Your Majesty. Coming here.”
Zhu Biao obviously also recognized Li Jinglong.
Ever since Xia Zhibai said that his prince was 'in name only', he had deliberately wanted to choose some of his favorite objects. However, due to the existence of Zhu Yuanzhang, he did not dare to make too many moves and could only choose from those close to him. Chang Sheng and Li Jinglong are the ones he has selected so far.
These people come after the old people.
His Majesty will not stop him from getting close to these people, and is even happy to see him using his old people. Secondly, they are indeed quite talented. Li Jinglong is talented, and Chang Sheng is brave and talented. This is what he is currently doing. Zhu Biao selected the starting team for himself.
This time, he also took the initiative to bring Li Jinglong over to meet Xia Zhibai so that Li Jinglong could pass the message on his behalf in the future.
immediately.
Zhu Biao looked at Xia Zhibai again.
Obviously, he needed a positive answer.
This little episode in front of him could not affect Zhu Biao's emphasis on the answer.
Xia Zhibai was silent for a while, but finally nodded.
Seeing Xia Zhibai nodding, Zhu Biao was startled for a moment, then looked at Xia Zhibai and said excitedly: "Did Academician Xia nod just now? In other words, there is really a compromise in Academician Xia's mind?" Xia Zhibai Bai continued to nod.
Zhu Biao looked ecstatic and overjoyed.
In fact, he had already made plans for Xia Zhibai to leave and talk about other things, but he didn't expect that Xia Zhibai gave him a huge surprise.
"Please also ask Academician Xia to explain clearly." Zhu Biao said quickly.
Xia Zhibai said slowly: "The answer His Highness wants is actually a compromise, but it is not necessarily a compromise. It can only be regarded as a more reasonable choice. While taking into account the face of His Majesty today, he should make some decisions on the situation of the court. Some adjustments.”
"The first thing is the law!"
"In all dynasties, the founding of a country must have clear laws and regulations."
"Law is the foundation of a country's governance."
"But now in the Ming Dynasty, there are both the "Da Gao" and the "Da Ming Code", and even private laws have become higher than the express laws. This situation will become a tool for local officials to manipulate them over time. Therefore, the first thing is to Clarify the priority of "Da Gao" and "Da Ming Law". ”
Hear the words.
Zhu Biao smiled bitterly.
How could he not know, but now that his father is still alive, how could he, a son-in-law, dare to object? He said that the Ming Dynasty should focus on the "Da Ming Law" and should not carry out lynchings like the "Da Gao". I am afraid that as soon as I say this, the soles of my father's shoes will fly over.
And His Majesty will never agree to change it.
Li Jinglong opened his eyes wide and looked at Xia Zhibai with admiration.
Zhu Biao said: "How can I not know it, but I can't move at all, and I don't have the guts to do it."
Xia Zhibai smiled slightly and said, "Who said we need to move?"
"The two methods can coexist."
Zhu Biao was stunned and then said suspiciously: "But if the two laws coexist, doesn't it mean that there is the same crime and different penalties, some serious and some light. In this way, the subjectivity of local officials is too strong."
Zhu Biao looked puzzled.
Xia Zhibai smiled mysteriously and said, "Has your highness ever heard of family law?"
Zhu Biao nodded: "Of course I have heard about it."
"Compared with the national law, the family law is undoubtedly more stringent and even inhumane. People often beat, scold and even kill people. In some places, the family law overrides the national law, and to a certain extent, the "Great Edict" does not Not a family law? ”
Zhu Biao shook his head and said with a straight face: "This is the truth, but the "Great Imperial Edict" is for governing officials, not for governing families. Moreover, the Ming Dynasty has clans and their own family laws. Furthermore, all officials are not the emperor. How can relatives and relatives use the methods of my Ming Dynasty clan?"
"Inappropriate."
Seeing that Zhu Biao didn't understand, Xia Zhibai secretly frowned and couldn't help but say a few more words.
He said: "The clan law of the Ming Dynasty is the clan law, and the family law is the family law. The two are different. I once said this, there are no factions in the court, and there are all kinds of strange things, so why can't your highness ask your majesty for instructions? Establish a party in the world ”
"Take the "Da Gao" as the 'family law' of this party!"
"'Family law' is more important than national law, so there is a basis for it. It is not too abrupt and is convincing."
"For court officials, we must first pursue party discipline, and then severely punish them according to national laws. This way the two will no longer confront each other, and the priority will be clarified at once."
