Zhenguan Crown Prince Li Chengqian

Chapter 482 Refutation of Chengqing Palace (2)

At the beginning of Zhenguan, whether it was Cen Wenwen, Zhang Liang, or other courtiers who said such things, Li Chengqian must not say more and bear it.Why, you need to be strong to make iron, the country is just established, and a thousand wastes are waiting to be rejuvenated. His father has not even secured the throne, so why talk about dignity.

But now, if it’s about feelings, it’s okay, let’s sit down and talk slowly, if it’s a joke, I will accompany you to the end, with the Nanbeiya and the Sixth Army with hundreds of thousands of troops in hand, whoever dares to stand up, I will dare to destroy you.

"Gu is still the same sentence. The state capital and county lieutenants are related to the foundation of the country. They should not be taken lightly, and there must be rules to follow, and mistakes must be punished. As for the set of corruption and innocence, and rebellion is justified, I don't want to follow that again. Hear it from the mouths of you important ministers.

Today's matter is arbitrarily decided, and there is no need for state-by-state delays, one step is in place, and it will be implemented nationwide immediately. "

Hearing what the crown prince said was so absolute, Cen Wenwen and Zhang Liang could only lower their heads and sigh, there was no way, the situation was stronger than others, and the crown prince supervised the country with a knife in his hand, of course he could do whatever he wanted How to do it.

Moreover, Fang and Du, who are sitting at the top and pretending to be naive, if the prince argues for using troops, these two old guys will definitely be the first to stand up and support.

"Your Highness, it is naturally not a problem to formulate corresponding laws to restrain and punish state and county officials. Those who are guilty and responsible should also be punished. What the old minister wants to ask is whether the officials dismissed for crimes should be demoted according to the past practice. use.

Let those people know that the imperial court is mindful of their past achievements. It can not only demonstrate the benevolence of His Majesty and His Highness, but also allow them to continue to serve the imperial court as a sinful person. Wouldn't it be beautiful! "

Fang Xuanling is a kind person, and he knew that treating them so harshly all of a sudden would cause a series of adverse reactions, but in terms of the country's long-term interests, this is undoubtedly the best way.Therefore, I can only change the law and ask the prince to be less aggressive. They have all done their best for the country, and the conscience of not being able to help him is also in the past.

After Fang Xuanling finished speaking, Du Ruhui, Changsun Wuji and others made admonitions one after another. Their opinions were very clear. Ma Zhou's admonition can be passed, and the prince's decision must also be supported. Everyone is killed, the country's current stable situation is hard-won, and the best way to eliminate the disaster is invisible.

After listening to the remonstrances of several prime ministers, Li Chengqian's complexion improved a lot. That's right. I don't think I'm too scared to talk about human relationships.Take a look at Fang Du and others. This is the demeanor that a minister of the Zhu Kingdom should have. As a minister of the Zhu Kingdom, the first thing to consider should be the emperor and the country, not nepotism. Like Cen Wenwen, Zhang Liang's generation will not be in the same place for 30 years. want to surpass them.

After nodding his head, Li Chengqian brushed off his sleeves, and then said seriously: "What the ministers said is reasonable, but it's still the same sentence, the court never thought of forcing the state officials to die.

Gu's general idea is this. This assessment is divided into four grades. The excellent ones are promoted, the good ones are retained, and the guilty ones are dismissed according to the law. "

"As for why the messengers are singled out, one is that they are still loyal to the court and have not violated the law, but their ability is a little weaker. Second, as Fang Xiang said, it is better to use past achievements than to use them. The ability to beat people to death with a stick, so I found a good place for them, hoping they can realize their shame and be brave."

A few days ago, Chen Guogong Hou Junji applied to the imperial court for the transfer of a large number of civil servants and military generals to enrich the western border. Although the Tang Dynasty conquered Tuyuhun for some time, the policy adopted has always been killing and suppressing, so the number of officials was also greatly reduced. big.

Originally, the emperor and Li Chengqian wanted to squeeze some people from all over the place to take the top, and slowly promote Sinicization in the old place of Tuyuhun, and implement the state and county system.But now that there are such people, Li Chengqian decided to advance the plan and use these "waste" again.

It would be difficult for these officials to govern and prosper the various parts of the Central Plains, but let them follow the rules and laws in the barbarian lands, use the army to stop, and enforce Sinicization. If you don't understand what to do, then don't be an official, just find a rope and hang yourself.

More importantly, the officers eliminated from Zhechong Mansion in various places are all battle-hardened soldiers. Can they keep looking at the sky in Zhechong Mansion every day without causing trouble?It's better to send it to the hometown of Tuyuhun, where the folk customs are tough, to flex its muscles, so that the emperor and himself can save their worries.

After hearing the prince's intention, all the officials in the palace nodded in agreement. Even Cen Wenwen and others who were opposed to it at the beginning couldn't find any reason to refute the prince. A way out, and it also consolidated the governing power of the newly conquered lands. This lawsuit cannot be won if it is brought to the emperor.

"Your Highness, the veteran thinks that this strategy is feasible. Since the former land of Tuyuhun has been incorporated into the territory of the Tang Dynasty, the same system as that in the Central Plains should be implemented, otherwise the situation in the western region will never be stabilized."

The old place of Tuyuhun is the best barrier for the Tang Dynasty to fight against Tubo on the western front. Once it is governed as stable as the Central Plains, Tubo can be firmly placed on the road to the east. This is very important for the overall defense deployment of the country. It was a good thing, so Du Ruhui stroking his beard and loudly agreed. From his expression, it could be seen that he was very happy that the prince had such a strategic understanding.

"Okay, since Du Xiang thinks so, Gu has more confidence. The Zhongshu Order immediately issued an edict to change the old place of Tuyuhun to Xihai Road, with Hou Junji as the governor and Li Daliang as the deputy governor. Xue Yuanjing is the chief historian, and the whole province is divided into [-] prefectures, and the national policies and laws of the interior are fully implemented, and the gap between the required officials will be made up after the assessment by the Ministry of Officials and the prefectures."

After speaking, Li Chengqian waved his hand, indicating that all the ministers can go down to do business, but what puzzled him was that everyone retreated in accordance with the etiquette, but Du Ruhui sat there with an old face and didn't move a step.

"Du Xiang, is there anything else?"

"Returning to Your Highness, the old minister deeply agrees with His Highness's policy of turning the Hu into Han in governing the region and the western border, and also deeply agrees with the three officials appointed by His Highness to seal borders.

Especially Xue Yuanchao, who used to join the army of Prince Qin's Mansion, has always praised His Majesty for his military strategy, and has many good plans. It has been a waste of years in the Ministry of Households. With him in Xihai Road to advise Chen Guogong, the western border will be safe sooner or later. "

During the conversation, Du Ruhui stood up, took two steps forward, and then said in a low voice: "Your Highness, what Zhang Liang said is right, it's fine to transfer civil servants, but if the generals in Zhechong Mansion are not transferred well, there will definitely be troubles." Yes, so the old minister thought that he could invite Wei Guogong Li Jing to preside over the assessment of the military mansion, and with him sitting down, His Highness will surely succeed!".
