Zhenguan Crown Prince Li Chengqian

Chapter 480 Meet the Author of Microknowledge - King Ma Bin

The marriage between Liu Sheng and Run Niang was originally not accepted by the world, but since the kindness comes from above, these constraints from the world no longer exist.It even made a good story about a talented man and a beautiful woman. This is the advantage of being decorated with imperial power. What was originally out of date suddenly became reasonable and legal.

Guozijian is also a place where morality and benevolence are everywhere. The old masters were also inspired by this, and wrote poems and poems to praise the friendship between the crown prince and the Confucian scholars. Therefore, the prince's benevolent and righteous behavior was widely spread.

No, in the Chengqing Hall, the emperor chatted with Li Chengqian out of curiosity. His son, he knew that what Li Chengqian hated most in his life were literati who were full of clichés. He refused to move even one step towards the yamen of the Imperial College, let alone get involved with Shi Enrumen.

If he really wants to learn from Confucianism, then why is there no place for them in the Eastern Palace Department? Of course, Zhang Xuansu is an exception, which I pointed out to him.

Li Chengqian could only express his helplessness to the Confucian school's shameless way of taking advantage of the situation to become famous. Who would have thought that such a trivial matter could become a weapon they used to compete with Buddhism and Taoism? This learned person is It's amazing, he can be so righteous without skin and face.

Therefore, the helpless Li Chengqian turned back to his father's words: "I would like to tell my father, the so-called eating and drinking of men and women, there is no human righteousness. Xiaohui to the ministers, to narrow the distance between the royal family and the ministers, this is also your teaching!"

Seeing his son's embarrassed face, Li Shimin shook his head involuntarily, pointed at Li Chengqian with a smile and said: "You, you are clever but you are mistaken by your cleverness. Let someone take advantage of you now. It's okay, if you suffer, you will grow forever." Zhi, you are also going to be a father, and it is good to suffer more."

Li Shimin is not afraid of his son making friends with civil and military officials, and he is not afraid of Li Chengqian touching military power. Why, the prince is the foundation of the country, the hope of inheriting the ancestral temple, and his role is to defend the imperial power.Moreover, Li Shimin is very satisfied with this son, he is sensible, sensible, deep-minded, and kind, otherwise he would not have allowed him to send Wu Guang into his Beiya Forbidden Army.

The only thing that worries him is that he credulously believes in the way of governing the country of those rotten scholars under the guise of benevolence and righteousness. In the Tang Dynasty, one school at a time is never allowed to become the shackles of the royal family ruling the world. Other princes have already been tricked by them. Li Shimin is not I hope that Chu Jun will also be influenced by others, that's why we have today's conversation.

Fortunately, this son's ears are hard enough, and he is just playing for face. This also made him let out a long breath, and at the same time sighed in his heart, born of the same pair of parents, why can't Qingque Understand the truth like Gao Ming.

Just when the father and son were about to eat, Gan Yun, the chief servant, came to report that Ma Zhou, the imperial historian, had something to see. Well, is this trying to impeach someone again?After counting, Li Shimin asked Gan Yun to pass people in, to see what "Yaomozi" came up with the new head of the imperial court.

After entering, Ma Zhou directly gave a memorial to the emperor, saying: "Those who manage the world are people-oriented. If you want to make the people peaceful, the only way is to be the county magistrate. Since there are many county magistrates, they cannot all be virtuous. If every state gets a good governor , Then he will rest in the environment. The governors of the world, all known as the holy will, then your majesty can arch on the rock corridor, and the people will not worry about uneasiness... His talents are worthy of being slaughtered, and those who are known for their virtues are not one in ten. Therefore, the common people are not safe, almost because of this."

The implication of the memorial is obvious. The state officials and county magistrates have become one of the hidden dangers of the country, and it is time to make changes. If they continue to develop, they will not be able to get rid of them in a short time. The bad governance of the country will corrode the foundation of the country, which will be a disaster for future generations.

This is not the first time that Ma Zhou has written about this. As early as when he was promoted by the emperor to the last official, he proposed to strictly control the appointment of state officials, govern with good deeds, and shepherd the people. However, the court has been in constant trouble for many years. Even if it is a disadvantage, there is no time to start.

Some time ago, before the emperor appointed the kings as governors and governors, although he agreed with Ma Zhou’s advice, he shelved his playbook, so Ma Zhou, who was waiting eagerly, planned to play again today, and urged the emperor to hurry up anyway. Do it, and if you don't do it, let the local state capitals form a stubborn party, it will be too late.

"In the past few days, I have read the memorials of the Ministry of Integrity and Government. Many of the officials who fell this year were capable and honest officials in the early days of Zhenguan. Their contribution to the country's prosperity is not small. After a long period of time, this person has changed, and I am heartbroken for this."

"I can't help it. I am not only their monarch, but also the monarch of all the people in the world. Even if I can't bear it, I can only gouge out the flesh and heal the sores. As for what you said, King Bin, you can do it, but you can't be too radical or too fast. If you can proceed step by step, Yugong Yishan can do it bit by bit, don't rush it!"

For Ma Zhou's point of view, Li Chengqian agrees with both hands. Official position is a ladder to wealth and honor, which is true, but everything must be measured. The imperial court cannot focus on how each official governs. This is not in line with employing people. I can't see the way.

Therefore, this gave many officials an opportunity to take advantage of the loopholes in the law to benefit themselves or their relatives and friends, and weave their own power in the local area. First place.

Now that the emperor has let go, it is imperative for the gang of Ma Zhou to add fuel to the flames, so Li Chengqian leaned forward and said: "Father, my son thinks what the doctor Yushi said is very true. Therefore, paying attention to the administration of local officials should be the focus of the imperial court's future governance. Besides, our dynasty implements the government military system, and soldiers and soldiers must be managed by county magistrates and captains. Soldiers can be recruited."

Li Shimin was the emperor on horseback, even when he was sleeping, he would stare at the army with one eye open, so Li Chengqian brought the topic to the issue of combining soldiers with the people, in order to play a reassuring effect.

Well, after contemplating for a while, Li Shimin settled the case, and then said in a deep voice: "Gao Ming is right, our Great Tang conquered the world with soldiers, and the generals and soldiers are the barriers to build a country. Everything can be destroyed, but only the army can't! Gao Ming , after you go down, discuss the countermeasures with Fang Du and the prime ministers, and report to me for approval later!".
