Chapter 20 Hu Bing

3days ago traverse Novels 3
Except for the New Year and New Year on the first and fifteenth day of each month, and the Muyou holiday, Xue Chongxun sat in Zichen Hall every day to listen to the affairs.

There are many etiquette rules in the palace, and the ministers pay attention to many details. Once, Prime Minister Dou Huaizhen's hat was a little erratic and was impeached by the censor and was disheveled.

So it took a long time to do some major events, which probably took about two hours between early morning and Chen Si, or just a few hours.

Xue Chongxun has to sit there for a few hours every day, and he has to not move around and affect his dignity. In fact, it is quite uncomfortable.

It was nothing if people sat motionless for a few hours a day or two. He couldn't sit up like this every day. He felt very unhappy. Once he was too indulged in the night and accidentally fell asleep in public the next day. It was quite ashamed to think about it.

He changed the place where he received the ministers on a daily basis to the greenhouse hall on the east side of Zichen Hall. This place was not an office place, but a palace where the emperor lived and had a bathing place next to it.

He naturally had an excuse to pull up the purple silk curtain in front of the throne, and move around inside, so that the ministers could talk about things outside.

If he was not interested in what he said, no one knew that he was sitting inside and dozing off, anyway, people outside couldn't see clearly.

The court discussions became increasingly unofficial, and even the person who approved the imperial edict on behalf of Xue Chongxun was Bai Qimei. A woman dared to use the jade seal if she had a Zhaoyi seal for Xue Chongxun.

The ministers had to endure it because women have had a fine tradition of participating in government affairs since the Tang Dynasty. More importantly, the censor once said in person that Xue Chongxun was wrong in doing this, and he called the Flying Tiger Regiment guards outside the hall to drag them out and beat them half to death.

The ministers were too lazy to take care of it, as long as it did not affect government affairs. Anyway, Xue Chongxun didn't say anything, everyone thought it was acquiescent, and gave Bai Qimei a wink and asked her to stamp and approve the memorial.

In this heaven, a memorial that Li Mi reported from Youzhou was urgently, disrupting the daily government affairs arrangements of the court officials. After waiting for a while under the two pine trees in the square in front of Zichen Hall, eunuchs came to announce their entry to the hall to discuss matters.

The thing I pay most attention to today is probably the memorial from Youzhou, and other daily affairs must be slightly slowed down.

As early as a few months ago, there was a war atmosphere in the Northeast. No wonder the court attached so much importance to the news of Youzhou. War has always been a major event for the country.

The court officials entered the greenhouse and saw a figure sitting upright in the purple curtain in the middle. No one could sit except the emperor. Everyone fell to the ground and shouted "Long Live the Border". Sure enough, Xue Chongxun's voice came: Everyone got up.

There were a total of more than a dozen ministers who came to visit, three in the cabinet and six in the Political Affairs Hall. The rest were officials of the two provinces under the Secretariat and several ministers of the six ministries.

There were three people in the purple curtain, except Xue Chongxun sitting cross-legged on the couch, Sanniang standing beside him and Yang Sixu, the general of the inner court and Zhongwu. Sometimes Yu Liben is on duty here, all of whom are very awesome eunuchs in the palace.

Yang Sixu had the title of a fourth-rank military officer and had a mansion outside the palace, because eunuchs could be granted official positions during the Tang Dynasty, and the Jin Dynasty did not abolish this system; while Yu Liben did not leave the palace to lead troops to fight wars, but his status in the palace was higher than that in Yang Sixu. He was not only popular in front of Xue Chongxun, but also one of his confidants in Princess Taiping.

Xue Chongxun said something and looked through Li Mi's memorial, letting the ministers talk nonsense outside.

He often doesn't speak or expresses his opinions because he is helpless. Occasionally, some ministers say something that makes people very angry. Xue Chongxun wants to find someone to drag him out and chop him out as soon as he speaks. He has this power.

But if you are unhappy, you will cut down all the people who are capable of speaking in the court. Who will rule this country?

Xue Chongxun asked himself that he was not a god and could not do this alone.

Only after being held on to the throne of God did he understand the foolish monarchs and tyrants in history. They are all people with temperament. It is normal to do those facts when power is not restricted. However, Xue Chongxun dared not do that. He still respects the rules of heaven and earth in his heart.

Sometimes when you are scolded openly and secretly by the ministers, you have to endure the praise. My beloved is so bold. In fact, what you want to say in your heart is: Fuck you.

Li Mi wrote about the work progress in the memorial, found out the army and defense in various parts of Youzhou, first wrote a memorial to report the matter, and then investigated the governance issues of the Han people and the young people living in a step-by-step manner.

The memorial mainly describes military affairs.

When he saw that it was written that six or seven out of the tenth border troops in Youzhou were all Hu people, Xue Chongxun's face changed slightly.

He naturally remembered the Anshi Rebellion. Although this situation is not enough to pose such a great danger, Xue Chongxun was naturally more sensitive because of his foresight.

The ministers had read the memorial before, and this is what they are discussing now.

The Political Affairs Hall must come up with a solution, and the next procedure is that the emperor agrees or rejects it.

But Xue Chongxunchao had a subtle change at the beginning, and there was a cabinet yamen. On the surface, he was the emperor's consultant, but it quickly affected the process of the decision-making center.

After the Zhengshi Hall proposed the method, the three cabinet members exercised the power of the consultant, mainly because of Xue Chongxun's trust, and began to suggest, which was difficult to avoid objections to the Zhengshi Hall's practices...

This has formed the current pattern. If the political strategy of the Political Affairs Hall is to be implemented legally, it must pass the cabinet.

Xue Chongxun has not expressed his opinion for a long time. The people in the cabinet are looking for trouble. If the prime ministers cannot provide reasons to convince the cabinet, how can they approve this memorial?

Xue Chongxun didn't ask. In his eyes, the current situation was a bit like two think tanks, but the supreme power was still in the hands of the emperor.

With the old people from the Jin royal palace in the cabinet, the national policy cannot be greatly influenced by Princess Taiping, especially when he is not in charge of the government affairs, there are always some people who should help check and balance.

Xue Chongxun can also be said to have good intentions.

Cheng Qianli, Minister of War and member of the Political Affairs Hall, came out first to explain: The list of soldiers in Youzhou Governor's Office was indeed a new book that was created some time ago, and the number was reduced by more than half. Li Mi had no new book when he left the capital, so there was such an error.

Xiao Zhizhong, who was promoted to the Minister of Personnel, immediately proposed: According to the content of this memorial, there was no strange phenomenon in the Youzhou soldiers, and it was at the time of threat from the Khitan. The court should not move here for the time being. Even if it only changes the lord generals, it is a taboo for military strategists to avoid giving the barbarians the opportunity to take advantage of it.I thought that the order should be issued to appease the governor Zhao Qu, and asked him to work hard to defend himself, and then ordered the chief Wang Xianzhi to recruit the people to assist in the logistics of the fortifications; at the same time, after Li Mi completed the inspection and made all matters such as Youzhou governance and Khitan movements, then make decisions.If the officials in Youzhou do improperly govern, causing border troubles, and asking for crimes or replacing people, it will not be too late to make a decision.

Su Jin said: Xiao Xianggong’s meaning is that he has not yet been found out, so what should I say about Youzhou using Hu people?In the entire Youzhou and the near left defense zone, the township soldiers, township soldiers and soldiers cannot be calculated accurately, and it is estimated that there are tens of thousands. The military soldiers in the governor's office only have more than 3,000, most of them are border soldiers. In the memorial, Li Mi said that the border soldiers used six or seven out of ten Hu people. Shouldn't it be alert?What guarantees the safety of our Great Jin Dynasty?In addition to properly implementing benevolent policies to win the hearts of the people, there are also millions of people wearing armor and holding sharp swords, just like a sword. How can a person give weapons to others?

Xiao Zhizhong probably felt that Su Jin had no age, so he disagreed: Mr. Su, don’t be too angry in everything. Experience more things and read more books to understand more truths.

Wang Changling was not happy when he heard this, because he was much younger than Su Jin. Didn’t Xiao Zhizhong’s words say that he was not qualified to discuss state affairs?

Wang Changling said seriously: Why don’t you think Xiao is angry?Sitting on the hidden dangers in Youzhou is the ‘more truth’. What are the truths?

Originally, Su Jin and Wang Changling had different political views and often had disagreements with each other. Now, when facing the Political Affairs Hall, they immediately exhaled their anger.

Su Jin looked at Wang Changling with joy.

Only Zhang Jiuling looks more scheming, neither breaking the cabinet nor talking about the strategy of the political affairs hall.

Xiao Zhizhong was a little angry and was about to refute, but at this moment, Zhang Shuo stood up and raised his hand to signal everyone to stop for the time being, and then said: The method proposed by Xiao Xiang is not bad, but you have to let the people in the cabinet speak, right?The cabinet was originally established for consultants to establish military affairs and state affairs. They felt that this method was not the most appropriate, so they could speak in front of His Majesty.We are all for the sake of the country and discuss things.

Zhang said that he was the boss of the Political Affairs Hall. As soon as he spoke, Xiao Zhizhong also held his fists and politely said: What the Secretary of the Central Committee said is, we are taught.

There is nothing wrong with the reason proposed by Master Su... Zhang Shuo looked at the figure in the purple curtain with an inadvertent look and said, "We are the dynasty of the Central Plains, and the Han people are the foundation."Since ancient times, the Han people did not miss farming and fighting. How could they have a prosperous era and a glorious dynasty come if they did not farm?Without war, how can the country be long-term and stable, and how can the huge territory come from?In ancient times, our ancestors only relied on the narrow land on the Yellow River bank, and cultivated and fought, and occupied the fifteen roads of the nine provinces of China and the land was vast and vast. All the lands that could be cultivated in the world covered the sea. How many barbarians had either exterminated or were driven to the barbarian land?Since Yanhuang used stone swords as his soldiers to the Great Jin Dynasty, we have come down to earth for thousands of years, but have we only cultivated the fields?Most of the time I was fighting and bleeding!If you understand this truth, can you still throw away your weapons?

Xue Chongxun, who had never spoken, actually spoke at this time: Mr. Zhang said, how to deal with the affairs in Youzhou?

Zhang Shuo hurriedly bowed and said: But it is entirely based on attacks that are not the ways of ancient sages, and slaughtering is more likely to lose virtue.Nowadays, Hu and Han people live in Youzhou, and the Hu people obey our officials' jurisdiction and should be educated. Otherwise, they will lose their morality in all directions. How would the young people in the prisoners in various places want to submit to them... Therefore, I think that the affairs of Youzhou must wait for Li Mi to return from the inspection, and first resolve the rebellion of the Khitan, and then abolish the border troops of Youzhou and reduce the number of Hu soldiers. This is a safe plan.

After a while, Xue Chongxun spoke: Mr. Zhang replied to Li Mi’s memorial, just write it and take it over and stamp it.
