Chapter 1536 Two proposals
In the Nanjing Palace, Gao Huan was in a heavy mood when he looked at the news sent by the Guoan Department.
At the same time, he was increasingly dissatisfied with the rule of the Civic Party.
Gao Huan really wanted to use the Civic Party to improve the court and society, hoping that they could solve the problems of inefficiency in official workshops, corruption and bribery, and bloated personnel.
Gao Huan hopes that they can develop the economy and improve people's livelihood, but now it seems that the Civic Party is not doing well.
In addition, in the face of the oppression of merchants, there was not much opposition among the people, which also disappointed Gao Huan.
Gao Huan may be the most bizarre emperor in history. He actually hoped that the bullied workers and the lower class could rise up to fight against the merchants and the ruling Civic Party government.
Now Gao Huan is over forty years old, and he is a little worried that after he leaves, his people will be fooled by those capitalists, worried that no one will speak for them in the future, and that they will become cattle and horses.
Gao Huan knew that the times were developing, and the country's governance should never be relied on in the future, and there should be a wise monarch.
Gao Huan could not guarantee that his descendants were as concerned about the people as he did, so he needed to spend the rest of his time establishing a government that could operate normally and represent the interests of the people while limiting the power of the monarch.
Gao Huan observed for a long time, and he was not satisfied with the Yuzhou Xunqi and the Civic Party. They were all political groups representing the interests of a few people.
At this time, Gao Huan was looking at the information and pondering, when the guards outside suddenly said, "Your Majesty, Huang Yizheng is asking for a visit."
Gao Huan heard the words, withdrew his thoughts, put away the information in his hand, and then said in a deep voice: "Let him come in."
Soon, Huang Zongxi came in with a blush on his face and saluted: "Your Majesty!"
Gao Huan smiled, "What's wrong with me today?"
Huang Zongxi smiled and said, "I am here today to report something to Your Majesty!"
"Oh?" Gao Huan signaled him to sit down, "I happened to have something to come to you! You can tell me first!"
Huang Zongxi took out a document and placed it in front of Gao Huan, "Your Majesty, it's about the end of the year. Representatives from all over the country have new proposals. This is a proposal from the representatives of Zhejiang, which is about the abolition of the labor law. Please check it out!"
Gao Huan is over forty years old, and there is probably not much time left. He needs to establish a mature and stable system to determine the national system.
A system is not achieved through a single piece of paper, and it will definitely require time to be tested, and it needs to be repaired and gradually improved.
Therefore, Gao Huan must do this in advance, and then watch him run for 10 or 20 years, and cannot wait until he dies to make a system change.
Gao Huan knew that with the development of society and the awakening of humanism, the absolute monarchy would definitely be eliminated, so he had already begun to explore ways out.
Now, according to the imperial edict issued by Gao Huan himself and the laws of the China Alliance, Gao Huan, as the emperor, was the commander of the three armies, had the right to declare war on foreign enemies, had the right to abolish and approve the law to take effect, and had the right to dissolve the Council.
Gao Huan no longer interferes in the government affairs of the Council, no longer directly deals with the country's military and political affairs, but only controls the army and formulates laws, and then uses the law to restrict the operation of the government.
What laws the Civic Party government wants to enact or repeal, it needs Gao Huan’s approval.
Gao Huan took it, looked at the information, his face calmly, and he could not tell his happiness or anger.
Huang Zongxi whispered: "Your Majesty, the competitiveness of the official workshop is low. The big reason is that it is bound by this law. Now many businessmen have reacted that the treatment of workers should be market-oriented. The court directly stipulates that it will affect the competitiveness of private companies and drag down economic development!"
Gao Huan put the materials together and looked up at Huang Zongxi, wanting to know if he really thought so or took advantage of others.
This is a question of whether he is stupid or bad.
Gao Huan looked at Huang Zongxi with an expectant look and said in a deep voice: "This is here first, I am studying it!"
Huang Zongxi was a little disappointed when he heard this. Since he was in power, the emperor almost allowed the bills he proposed and the amendment of legal provisions, and never opposed it. He even encouraged him to boldly reform.
Today, the emperor suppressed the proposal and did not make a direct statement, which surprised Huang Zongxi.
At this time, Gao Huan took out a draft from the table and smiled and said, "Your dear, look at this proposal, too!"
Huang Zongxi took it, opened it and frowned immediately.
This is a plan for education reform, with the main content of the establishment of universities in each province and stipulates the proportion of students admitted to the province and other provinces without universities.
During the reign of Taizu of the Ming Dynasty, in order to prevent the division between the north and the south, the north and the south were pioneered, and this reform plan was to further subdivided.
Now the world's educational resources are mainly concentrated in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. The new officials added by the imperial court in recent years are also mainly from Jiangsu and Zhejiang.
If this continues, the court will be filled with Jiangnan people, which will turn the court into a regional government and be controlled by people in one place, affecting all unity and unity.
The purpose of this reform plan is to balance and ensure that talents from other provinces can also come out and prevent Jiangnan from becoming the only one in the world.
"This plan was written by Wang Fuzhi, I think it's very good!" Gao Huan looked at Huang Zongxi, "What do you think of it?"
Huang Zongxi's hands trembled slightly. After only a few glances, he was shocked and he was instantly alert. For the Civic Party, this reform can be said to be a slash of resources.
After the Ming Dynasty divided the North and South rankings, the imperial examinations were admitted, and no longer all southerners were from the south. The number of southerners who passed the imperial examinations was the same as those from the northerners.
This reform was further subdivided, and the quota was placed in a province. In other words, there will be as many students admitted in Zhejiang in the future as in Huguang.
The Civic Party is a political party that is very rich in regional colors and relies heavily on Zhejiang and Zhili provinces.
If reforms are carried out, it will greatly weaken the reserve force of the Citizens Party, which will make them lack strong momentum like the Yuzhou Xunqi Group.
This is something that Huang Zongxi could not accept, and he quickly said, "Your Majesty, I think this reform plan is very absurd!"
Gao Huan's eyes narrowed. This plan was actually Gao Huan's last test on Huang Zongxi.
If Huang Zongxi can agree, it means that he will consider the whole world, rather than only considering the interests of the Civic Party and Jiangnan.
Then Gao Huan can continue to use Huang Zongxi.
If he does not agree, it means that the interests of Jiangnan in his heart are higher than those of the country, and then Gao Huan can no longer use him.
"Oh?" Gao Huan's face did not show a disappointed expression, but asked with a smile: "Why?"
Huang Zongxi did not realize that he missed the most critical opportunity, his mind was spinning rapidly, thinking about how to get Gao Huan to dispel and implement this plan.
"Your Majesty! Because..."
