Daqin: Who does this throne give to me?

Chapter 140 The first imperial decree after becoming emperor

"What Daqin needs to do now is to continue to promote the same text of books, the same track of vehicles, the same measurement of quantity, and the same behavior of behavior!"

"At the same time, the statistics of population and land in various places must be accelerated, and the land reclamation order must be implemented all the time. There are also county schools in various places. There is no condition to implement all rural schools, but county schools must be popularized!"

"In addition, Shaofu and Jiujiang County have already minted a large amount of new money. All localities must strictly investigate private money and gradually replace all the old money of the six countries!"

Speaking of this, Zhao Wen looked down with a look of coldness on his face. Since ancient times, it has been illegal for orders to cast private money. Only these people in the palace dare to do such a thing. However, in this era, Zhao Wen has no intention of Banknotes are promoted directly, so it is only mentioned.

These things are some of the current policies of Daqin. Zhao Wen said it again, telling all the courtiers that these things will not change themselves, and will still be implemented.

After finishing speaking, looking at the courtiers who were still looking forward to it, Zhao Wen smiled lightly: "In the future, all government affairs will be sent to the cabinet for handling, so there is no point in going to court every day. From today onwards, every day On the first day of the first month, there will be a big court, and the rest of the time, everyone will work in the Yamen as usual!"

All the courtiers suddenly smiled wryly. All the affairs were handled by the cabinet, and going to court naturally became a matter of nostalgia. However, no one thought that the second emperor of Daqin would actually arrange all affairs on the first day of his ascension. When it was pushed to get along with the prime minister, even the daily court affairs were cancelled.

Some ambitious ones looked towards the Prime Minister's Palace with jealousy in their eyes, and dealt with all the government affairs. Except that they had no military power, their rights were no different from those of the previous emperors. Such good things could happen, who could not jealous.

Zhao Wen smiled lightly. Although the matter had to be dealt with by the cabinet, the imperial edict had to be stamped with a jade seal by the emperor.

With this hurdle, things that I disagree with naturally cannot be carried out. Compared with the first emperor, there is no difference in rights, but all the curses from the world are gathered in the cabinet. This is the biggest cabinet system for an emperor. the benefits of.

Gently stood up, looking down, Zhao Wen had a smile on his face, and said with a light smile: "There are people, there is a country. Today, when I ascend the throne, I should celebrate with the whole world, and spread the decree to all places, and the world will be exempted from land tax for one year!"

"His Majesty!"

Countless courtiers looked at Zhao Wen in horror. In autumn, no matter whether they are raising the army or entering various projects, they are in need of money and food. Even the salaries of these officials are from the land tax.

If there is no tax for a year, the Great Qin Empire will have big problems.

"The cabinet can calculate all the expenses of Daqin for one year, and I will pay the money."

The land reclamation order has just been implemented for one year, and the output of the newly reclaimed land is scarce. With a year of hard work, how much grain can ordinary people have in their homes?

Anyway, he now has so much gold and silver that he has to find a warehouse to store it.

As for food, all kinds of high-yield food can be planted, but the farms in Shaofu, the annual output may be able to cover the past year's land tax, and they can also be purchased with gold, silver and jewelry, Zhao Wen really can't believe it What would happen to Daqin if he didn't collect land tax for a year.

"Retreat!"

After Chu Yi yelled loudly, Zhao Wen walked towards the apse with light steps, while the officials of the Great Qin Dynasty in the court hall were thinking with uncertain faces.

Compared with the first emperor, the new emperor's accession to the throne has changed so much that many people don't even understand the meaning of the new emperor's arrangement.

Only Wang Jian glanced indifferently at the officials in the hall, smiled coldly in his heart, and strode out.

A tiger talisman is required for dispatching troops, but the tiger talisman is in the hands of the emperor, and this military pavilion of mine is just like a document next to the general.

The cabinet is the same as the military cabinet. Without His Majesty's will to affix the jade seal, it is just a piece of rag, who cares.

All the way to the apse, strode towards the emperor's bedroom.

Today is the first day of the First Emperor's succession to the throne, but he could only stay in the apse alone when he was in court, and he must feel lonely in his heart. Zhao Wen, the newly succeeded emperor, naturally had to go over to comfort him as soon as possible.

As soon as he entered the palace, he saw Emperor Shi Huang sleeping on the bed with his eyes closed, and the expression on his face was so cold that the ice could fall off.

"Father is in better health!"

Although the procedure of passing the throne is decreasing today, it is extremely difficult for the first emperor to persevere with his current body. When Zhao Wen took over the jade seal, he saw that the first emperor's legs began to tremble.

"I'm not mad at you yet!"

The First Emperor didn't even open his eyes, and said coldly: "It is a miracle through the ages that an emperor can hand over all the daily affairs of the government to the prime minister!"

Speaking of this, Emperor Shihuang slowly opened his eyes, looked at Zhao Wen and asked, "Come and tell me, what does your emperor do every day if you don't deal with the government affairs?"

"My son also wants to leave a system for future generations!"

Zhao Wen respectfully saluted before saying: "Father, you also know that emperors have different abilities. There is no problem in dealing with government affairs with ability, but it will definitely cause chaos in the world!"

"The future prime minister must be an official promoted from one level to the next in the county. As far as the ability to handle government affairs is concerned, it is definitely far above the emperor. There will be no change of dynasty!"

"All the infamy is borne by the cabinet, and the good things like tax exemption are all insisted by the emperor?"

The first emperor immediately understood Zhao Wen's meaning, and after thinking about it carefully, he asked again: "In this way, the emperor must close the relationship with the military pavilion, but the emperor who grew up in the deep palace is born with the lowest-level soldiers. You don’t have to think about the distance yourself, what should future generations do to capture the hearts of the soldiers?”

Zhao Wen secretly lamented the power of the first emperor, who grasped the core of this system at once. Only by grasping the army can the emperor be able to hand over all government affairs to the cabinet, otherwise it will really become a show.

"The establishment of a military academy recruits students from the grassroots and even scholars in the army. The emperor himself will be the dean of the military academy. In the future, all officers will be students of the emperor. Students will not say that they are rebelling against their teachers, but they have a bad attitude. They can all be scolded to death by the world!"

"It's a way!" It wasn't intentional laziness, but to pave a new path for future generations, Emperor Shi Huang nodded in satisfaction.

"There are still some treasures and money in the palace treasury, you can take them all, you are not kidding, I have a lot of taxes for a year in Daqin, since I promised to exempt the world from taxes for a year, I must do it!"
