Chapter 350: Wings are about to grow! (The previous chapter is still under review)
Xia Zhibai has left.
Zhu Biao sat in his seat, his eyes blank for a long time.
The same is true for Li Jinglong.
Xia Zhibai's words shocked their hearts and greatly changed their understanding of the court. To a certain extent, Xia Zhibai's intention was to strengthen the relationship between the court and local officials. common understanding and establish a common direction.
Let Ming Dynasty always maintain a consensus.
a long time.
Zhu Biao came to his senses.
He took a deep breath to keep himself calm, looked at Li Jinglong who was still a little shocked and nodded with satisfaction, and said with a smile: "You know now why you look at Xia Zhibai so differently, right?"
< br>
"This person's perspective on people and things is different from mine."
"There are always wonderful ideas."
"And his words are often shocking, but if you think about it carefully, you can't help but feel that it makes sense. If not, with Xia Zhibai's rampant character, I am afraid that His Majesty would not be able to tolerate him long ago, and how would he be allowed to live?" Until now.”
"You also listened to what Xia Zhibai said. Tell me how you feel now."
Li Jinglong smiled bitterly and nodded quickly: "I think it is very bold and inspiring, and the angle of consideration is very novel. In the past, national laws and family laws did exist in the world. In fact, all dynasties were very disgusted with the existence of family laws. , because to a certain extent, local family law overrides national law. ”
"This will lower the status of national law."
"But throughout the ages, family law has repeatedly banned it, and it will never stop."
"This has always been the case even in our dynasty. However, the punishments in the "Great Edict" are to a large extent greater than the family laws of the people. Your Majesty's intention is to use the harsh punishments in the "Great Edict" to deter hundreds of people. Officials, let officials not dare to commit crimes easily.”
"Xia Zhibai obviously knew this, so he took a different approach based on the actual situation of the world. Since the family law must not be banned, he should respect the reality and use it for our court. He would even continue to carry it forward and set up a discipline in the court. 'Family law'!"
"It's just that the local family laws govern the clan, while the imperial family laws govern the officials."
"In this way, it not only demonstrates His Majesty's closeness to the officials. After all, it is a 'family law', so His Majesty has become the 'Grand Patriarch' of the Hundred Officials. Therefore, he is closer than before, but at the same time, because he is the patriarch , so I deeply hate any 'bad situation' that occurs in the 'home' and will punish it more severely. ”
"It's all logical."
"It's all reasonable."
"As Xia Zhibai said, this is the price of being an official!"
"As for the other centralization of power that Xia Zhibai said, it is true. Take the local clan chiefs as an example. It is true that power will naturally be more concentrated. If Xia Zhibai's idea can really be implemented, it will strengthen the Ming Dynasty's control over the world. Control goes a long way.”
"I think it's good!"
Li Jinglong bowed respectfully to Zhu Biao and expressed his views with all his heart.
Zhu Biao nodded.
He also deeply agreed with Xia Zhibai's proposal.
But as the crown prince, he also had to consider the feelings of the officials.
No one would be willing to suddenly have a 'big head' on everyone's head and have more rules and regulations. What's more, it is still a hundred officials with real power. If they want to promote this system, I'm afraid they will encounter a lot of resistance. .
Zhu Biao couldn't help but frown.
Li Jinglong had been paying attention to the change in Zhu Biao's expression. When he saw Zhu Biao frowning, he roughly guessed Zhu Biao's thoughts. He hesitated and said slowly: "Your Highness is worried that this system will not be implemented?" Zhu Biao nodded.
He sighed softly and said: "Although the idea is good, the difficulty is not low. How can any official be willing to have a well rope added to his head?"
Li Jinglong grinned and said: "Your Highness, you are just a fool of the authorities."
"Oh." Zhu Biao's eyes lit up and he quickly looked at Li Jinglong and said, "Then tell me where I am obsessed and how I can break the situation."
Li Jinglong said: "It is indeed not easy to put shackles on the heads of officials, and it is difficult to really have an effect, but I still remember that His Highness told me that Xia Zhibai wanted His Highness to start a new business. Since it is a new start, Naturally, there should be a new set of standards.”
"The old group of officials will not be replaced, but the new officials may not be."
"With His Highness's prestige in the world, if only a few rumors are released, wouldn't the world's literati and scholars flock to you? There will also be local officials who will also flock to this land. The land of China has always upheld the principle of With one point of view, it is above power.”
"Scholars all over the world agree."
"No one will give up such an opportunity to climb a high branch. Even if many people are unwilling to give in, there will definitely be more speculators. As long as His Highness's team becomes more substantial and more and more officials are reused, His Highness is still afraid No one? ”
"Are you afraid that no one will participate?"
"As for the old ministers in the court, what do they have to care about?"
"There are already a bunch of old antiques. It is a waste of effort to persuade those people. Besides, why should His Highness bother with those people? His Highness is better than his youth now. He is an old minister in the court. As time goes by, I am afraid that he will take the initiative to send his own children in. ”
"The important thing now is to put this framework in place."
"Open His Highness's own brand!"
Hear the words.
Zhu Biao was startled at first, and then showed a look of surprise.
He is indeed confused by the authorities. He only considers the feelings of the officials, but ignores his own influence on the world. With his prestige in the world, if he pushes something hard, he may not necessarily succeed, but he will definitely succeed. As Li Jinglong said, there is no shortage of speculators in the world.
Although he didn't like these people, he was happy to buy horse bones for a thousand dollars.
As long as the signboard is erected, more and more officials will come in. With his own promotion, even if the officials in the DPRK and the Central Government ignore it, they will have to face it. When he takes office, these officials in the DPRK and the Central Committee will not dare to live. thing?
The most important thing is to have strong wings.
Zhu Biao said: "It is true that I did not think carefully and ignored my own situation."
"In your opinion, what should I do?"
Li Jinglong smiled and said: "In my opinion, Your Highness should first ask His Majesty for his opinion. If His Majesty approves, Your Highness will then make further contributions based on this tone. Although Your Highness is the crown prince, loyalty and filial piety come first in my Ming Dynasty, and Your Highness will take responsibility for it." To set an example.”
"I just have a worry."
"Would this cause division in the court?"
"Or."
"Just as Xia Zhibai said, make His Majesty the 'big head'. In this way, everything will be in compliance with the regulations. In a certain sense, this can also be regarded as the construction of the talent echelon of the East Palace in the future."
Hear the words.
Zhu Biao nodded with satisfaction.
