Great Tang princess

Chapter 276 The Blueprint for the Future

After the words fell, the ministers who had come out to start spraying were taken aback for a second, and stopped immediately.

The title of Zhen Guo cannot be given casually, which is fundamentally different from titles like Xuancheng or Yiyang.

Such a title means that when the emperor is away, the princess has the right to oversee the country!Almost equal to the second prince!

Li Yuechen's face froze in the passage, and his eyelids drooped.

The old man is also true, just now he said that he should not be the prince, and immediately arranged for an executive deputy prince, it seems that he still expects too much of himself.

After a period of eerie silence in the court hall, the next moment it was as noisy as a vegetable market.

"Your Majesty, is there something wrong with this award?"

"Report to the Emperor, this treatment is too mild..."

Many ministers started to make noise, but most of them said that the treatment of the former prince was too mild and really inappropriate.

As for the title given to the princess... Anyway, it's not been a day or two since the emperor favored his daughter, and they're getting used to it.

Coupled with the support of Liu Rengui and many other veterans on the battlefield, the number of people who opposed the princess title was not as many as imagined.

……

After the announcement of the matter in the court hall, while Shangguan Wan'er was preparing to write an article and publish it in the newspaper, the follow-up of this matter was not over yet.

Many of the former prince's subjects were liquidated. Although the prince committed suicide this time, they could not escape the charge of ineffective supervision.

Zhang Daan was demoted to other places, and all the eunuchs related to Fang Qingan were killed, including the two generals of Li Zhi who wanted to assassinate alone, and all the children in the family except children under 15 years old were also killed.

At this point, this matter is considered to be completely over, and it is almost November at this time.

……

The matter of the former prince is settled, so the matter of the new prince should naturally be put on the agenda.

Under normal circumstances, when the emperor establishes a prince, he knows that he will be the eldest son, but he still needs to discuss it with the ministers to show the harmony between the monarch and his ministers.

However, this time Li Zhi did not discuss with the ministers. Although they all knew that the next prince should be Li Xian according to the order, there was no warning, and the imperial edict was announced directly at the end of October.

King Li Xian of England was crowned the crown prince, and by the way, his reign was changed to Yonglong.According to the usual practice, the world will be amnesty.

Because the family had already discussed it in advance, Li Xian was not surprised, but felt that the future would be gloomy.

After announcing the imperial edict, Li Xian shouted for thanks from below, but Li Yuechen in the passage next to him could clearly see that his brother had a Sima face.

Li Lun, who came to attend the court meeting together, was relieved, and his eyes seemed to say: Fortunately, it's not me.

Such an expression was naturally seen by Li Zhi who was sitting on the dragon chair, and he couldn't help but sighed slightly.

It feels like since the birth of this daughter, many things have changed invisibly.

In other dynasties, I even said that when I was a child, I was happy for a long time when I heard that I became the prince.

When my eldest son was still alive, everything seemed to be fine, but since the second child, the royal family's style of painting has suddenly become unpredictable.

Ever since Li Xian became the crown prince, Li Xian and Li Lun had no intention of earning money at all. Every day they either ate, drank and had fun or studied music at home and lived their own lives.

But now that Li Xian has been abolished, neither of the remaining two sons wants to be the prince, but each of them has a bad attitude.

Seeing this scene, although Li Zhi felt relieved in his heart, he also felt helpless.

I am gratified that there should be no brother-in-law between my sons, but I am helpless because everyone has this attitude, how to govern the country?

Turning her head to look at her daughter in the aisle, she was leaning against the wall with a relaxed face, staring at every move in the hall as if she was watching a joke.

They were both named Princess Zhenguo, and they still didn't want to take care of things. It seems that the bad attitude of the two sons was also influenced by her.

Wu Zetian, who was sitting behind the bead curtain, could naturally see this scene, and curled her lips helplessly, while she thought more.

Not only the two sons were influenced by their daughter, Li Zhi himself was also greatly affected.

Now I don't want to go to work at all, I just drink tea and sleep every day, or just chat and play with my daughter.

Thinking of this, Wu Zetian also sighed helplessly, the entire royal family was in a mess, and she was the only one working from dawn to dusk every day.

This is Li Tang, not Wu Tang, why is he busier than the emperor now.

……

In early November, it snowed heavily.

At the same time, news was received in the court that Princess Wencheng had passed away, and the court sent envoys to offer condolences.

Li Yuechen who received the news was in a complicated mood.

The story of Princess Wencheng was learned in history class at the beginning, and now in this era, think about it carefully, did her distant marriage really bring peace to Datang?

Rather, at that time, Songtsan Gampo seemed to have no intention of going to war with the Tang Dynasty. Marrying the princess back was more likely for the skilled workers and the huge amount of supplies that were married, right?
On the other hand, the marriage of Princess Wencheng may just have brought a wave of technological revolution to Tubo, which has upgraded their various technologies a lot.

Besides, what if she married in the past?Can't get involved in political affairs.

When she was still alive a few years ago, didn't Tubo still invade Datang?

In the final analysis, she is also a poor woman... Marriage, in essence, has no meaning!Li Yuechen looked at the sky and shook his head slightly.

……

Li Xian was sent to the army not only by himself, but by his family.

He can train in the barracks by himself, but it is impossible for Fang Furong and others to participate in military training with him, so they must have a place to live.

Not to mention that even though he was abolished, Li Yuechen couldn't treat his brother and sister-in-law too badly. One of these two is a prince, and the other is from a wealthy family.

Fortunately, Li Yuechen originally had the idea of ​​building a family home. As soon as Li Xian came, this matter could be put on the agenda.

At present, Fang Furong is temporarily arranged in her dormitory, so she can live with her, and her second brother, Li Xian, can start military training directly.

In the conference room, Li Yuechen and Li Xian's family sat opposite each other, explaining the follow-up questions.

"Brother, let's start military training right now. Be a big soldier first and learn the rules in the barracks. As for my sister-in-law, live with me first, and then transfer to the family area after the establishment of the family area is completed..."

After listening to his younger sister's explanation, Li Xian had no objection, and he had already seen it off.

If the rebels were not killed, they had already saved their lives, and there was nothing else extravagant to ask for.

"Of course I'm fine, I just observe etiquette and righteousness..." Li Xian was a little worried.

Of course, Li Yuechen would not treat his two nephews badly, nodded and said: "Brother, don't worry, I will let them study culture together first, and train them as grassroots officers in the future."

Originally, Li Yuechen wanted to establish a school exclusively for members of the royal family, to establish a relatively correct thinking and values ​​for them, and this matter can also be started in advance.

After talking about things, Li Xian had no doubts, and nodded in agreement.

Li Yuechen stood up: "Okay, I'll take my sister-in-law back first, and afterwards..."

"Furong go back with Xiaohe, Yuechen, please stay." Li Xian said suddenly.

Seeing that the two had something to talk about, Xiao He immediately took Fang Furong back, leaving only the brother and sister in the conference room.

Li Xian was silent for two seconds, then raised his head: "Yuechen, if one day I die..."

"Okay, bro, don't think about that." Li Yuechen immediately interrupted him.

Of course she knew what her brother was thinking. Now that he was deposed, as long as he was alive, he would be a threat to the next prince.

And Li Xian is not independent, if he becomes the prince in the future, maybe someone will persuade him to take his life.

It is not impossible even for Li Zhi himself to think so.

As the emperor, Li Zhi knew better what his third son was like. In order to eliminate the threat to him, it is not impossible to personally order Li Xian to be executed in the future.

Li Yuechen understood his thoughts, and immediately interrupted him: "Brother, you can stay here at ease, don't worry about future problems, but he definitely won't do that!"

Seeing his sister's confident assurance, Li Xian shook his head: "How do you guarantee..."

However, before he finished speaking, he suddenly thought of something, suddenly raised his head and asked, "In the future... what do you want to do?"

Li Yuechen suddenly showed a cute smile: "Rebel!"

"Huh?" Li Xian didn't react immediately, "What did you say?"

However, Li Yuechen didn't intend to continue talking more, and smiled and said: "Okay, brother, go to the barracks first. Another reminder, now that brother has been demoted to a commoner, it's best not to stay in the barracks Put on the airs of the prince, otherwise I don't care if I get beaten..."

After speaking, he turned around and left, leaving only Li Xian who looked at her back with a complicated expression on his face.

……

Li Yuechen, who walked out of the conference room, put away the smile on his face, looked up at the sky above the barracks that had gradually turned orange, and fell into deep thought for a moment.

"It seems... the second step of the plan should start." Li Yuechen muttered to himself.

Originally, her first step plan was to centralize the imperial power. Although it can't be said that it has been achieved now, but at present, it is almost the same.

At least once the grenade comes out, there is no fear that someone will overturn the table, which is equivalent to the concentration of imperial power, and the rest is to slowly wear down the social influence of those aristocratic families.

But this cannot be done in a day or two. This process may take two or three generations.

But now it's time to think about it.

In Li Yuechen's reform plan, the first step is to make the imperial power highly centralized, free from the influence of aristocratic families.

The second step is to divide the imperial power!
The disadvantage of the feudal dynasty is that the power in the hands of the emperor is too great.

If such a great power is placed in the hands of a wise king, it may be good for the country, but if it is shared with a foolish king, it will be a disaster!

Therefore, Li Yuechen wants to divide the centralized imperial power again, so that the power in the emperor's hands will be reduced, thus forming a restriction on the emperor himself.

Originally, the first thing she thought of was a constitutional monarchy, but this was tantamount to completely emptying the royal family.

Li Yuechen is not a saint, and she also has selfishness. Since she was born in the royal family, she naturally didn't want the royal family to become a useless mascot, so during this time, she came up with a second solution.

It's very simple, Li Yuechen intends to build a school exclusively for members of the royal family, the first thing is to let them learn correct ideas and values ​​from an early age.

Secondly, all members of the royal family will enter the army in the future, starting from the top soldiers and exercising little by little.

Since the royal family enjoys the privileges over ordinary people, it must fulfill some responsibilities that ordinary people do not need to do.

Members of the royal family must shoulder the heavy responsibility of defending their home and country. During the war, when encountering some complicated tasks that may even be fatal, the members of the royal family must bear the brunt of it!

To put it simply, it is to add some responsibility to the members of the royal family and let them understand what it means to be born in the royal family.

This must start with the education of future royal family members from childhood!
At the same time, such a system must be written in the Tang Law Shuyi, which is the future national constitution.

If the royals don't comply, they must be stripped of their royal status.

In this way, all members of the royal family remain permanently in the military from birth to death.

At the same time, after the reform of the military in the future, the country will be divided into several theaters, and the emperor himself will serve as the supreme head of the central theater and also the highest military officer in the country.

The emperor's own brothers and sisters served as military governors in other theaters, while forming a sort of royal council.

If the emperor himself indulged in negligence, he could be removed by voting.But this institution only exists inside the royal family, and outsiders are not allowed to participate.

In this way, the emperor's own power is no different from that of other brothers and sisters, and earning the throne naturally loses its meaning.

Rather, under such a system, not being an emperor is the most comfortable choice.

In this way, as long as there is no large-scale war at the national level, the emperor himself basically does not need to participate, and the nearby theaters will solve it by themselves.

……

This is the current blueprint that Li Yuechen has formulated for the future reform plan. It is still only a general framework, but it doesn't matter. The details can be filled in a little bit in the future.

Li Yuechen will have many difficulties to implement such a big plan, and it will definitely take more than ten years or even decades of hard work.

Li Yuechen's idea is that it is best to finish it before he dies.

This kind of reform is almost equivalent to rebellion, so just now I told Li Xian that I will rebel in the future.

This is also the reason why Li Yuechen refused to be the prince. Such a large-scale reform will inevitably cause huge obstacles in the process.

It is very difficult for the emperor himself to carry it out, so Li Yuechen does not intend to be the highest branches and leaves, but to become the roots buried deep in the soil.

Only in such a role, there is no need to care too much about the style of acting, and there is no taboo.

Otherwise, when you become an emperor, you will be restricted everywhere and it will be difficult to implement it.

So Li Yuechen didn't want to be the emperor on the bright side, she wanted to be the emperor who sat back to back with the emperor and sat in the dark behind!
