Chapter 159 Seeing Qin for the First Time

Of course, it is not a matter of one or two days to modify the "Song Zhengtong", and it is not something that can be done by talking at the dinner table. In addition to revising issues involving the issue of collecting and cutting off the students, selling people slightly, studying for women, and other issues involving people's livelihood, it also involves the administrative and military system of the entire Song Dynasty, including the civil service system, the Privy Council and the entire military.

Even if Zhao Huan had a complete "The Law of the Ming Dynasty" in his head for reference.

After all, the Ming Dynasty law is the Ming Dynasty law, and the Song Dynasty legislative unit is the Song Dynasty legislative unit. Except for some places where the two can be referenced and verified, the others are actually like the superscript of instant noodles packaging bags for reference only. Apart from reference only, there is no other use for reference.

No one can guarantee that the laws of the Ming Dynasty must apply to the Song Dynasty.

If you really want to revise the "Song Zhengtong", in addition to the emperor Zhao Huan and Li Gang as the current dynasty, you also need the cooperation of the Secretariat, the Privy Council, the Ministry of Revenue, the Ministry of Personnel, the Ministry of Works, the Ministry of Justice, the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of War, the Third Office, the Censorate, the Nine Temples, the Sixth Supervisor and other yamen.

What Zhao Huan can do now is to communicate with Li Gang, the current dynasty, Li Ruobing, the official of the Ministry of Personnel, and other people at the wine table of the Kaifeng Prefecture Institution in advance, so that these tycoons can prepare in advance and follow Zhao Huan's pace when they are truly revising the "Song Zhengtong".

However, Li Gang's heart seemed to be trampled by ten thousand divine beasts-

Compared with Emperor Zhao Jixiang, the current official family is really too troublesome!

Since the current government ascended the throne, we have either been fighting or preparing for war every day. Occasionally, there are a few good times when we don’t fight or are preparing for war. Today’s governments can always make trouble in the court in different ways!

What’s even more terrible is that today’s officials really have the confidence to make trouble!

Why did the Emperor Zhao Jixiang fail to fight the new policy of Chongning? Because Emperor Zhao Jixiang could not withstand the crazy counterattack of the original interest groups, and his subordinates were doing things randomly under the banner of telling the new laws. The dignified Emperor of the Song Dynasty actually called himself "the leader, Taoist emperor", which was simply a big deal!

Today's official...

Not to mention anything else, just talk about the stern generals who were suppressed by the government—

The founding of the Song Dynasty has been more than 150 years. In the past 150 years, from Emperor Taizu to the current government, it happened to be the nine generations of government families. However, the current governments do not take the generals seriously. But those generals can only swallow their anger and watch the current government reorganize the imperial guards, reorganize the Palace Front Office and the Imperial City Office!

Asking for himself, after losing the military power to invoke each other, Li Gang felt that not to mention that he was the ruthless dynasty, even if he tied the entire court together, he would have no choice but to have the courage to sing a counter-tune with the current officials.

When he thought of this, Li Gang couldn't help but look at Li Ruobing inquiring.

However, Li Ruobing gave Li Gang a look that "it's nothing to do with me".

Unlike Li Gang, who became an official in "The Analects of Confucius", although Li Ruobing also reads "The Analects of Confucius", Li Ruobing prefers the Legalist theory that emphasizes law, momentum and art.

To put it bluntly, Li Ruobing had long been dissatisfied with the current situation in the Song Dynasty-

For example, the Supreme Emperor Zhao Jixiang is a typical example of "the ruler has no power but is important to the left and right", "the opportunity to kill is to seize it is to the ministers, and such an invasion is to invade."

But except for the emperor Zhao Jixiang himself, there is no good thing for the remaining ministers. "The ministers hold foolish people, the superiors deceive the master, the subordinates collect profits and invade fishermen, and the fickle parties compare with each other, confuse the master and defeat the law, and use the chaos of the people to make the country dangerous and humiliate the master. This is a serious crime."

To put it simply, it is a bunch of corpses in the court who are eating and waiting to die. In the court, they cannot provide advice for the officials and cannot stabilize the people's livelihood in the local area. They all have serious crimes. It is better to take them all to Qin Hui to play the Great Wall!

Now the officials are going to revise the "Song Zhengtong" to make things that have not been done by officials in previous dynasties. Does this mean that the opportunity for the Legalists to stand out is coming?

When Li Ruobing thought of this, he felt a little hot, and he didn't even care about the Confucian skin he had worn in the past.

"I heard from the officials, and I thought that the soldiers and the people were sick, the accumulation of resources, the fields were deserted, the warehouses were trapped, and the neighboring countries were not convinced, and the name of the overlord was not achieved. This is no different, and the counselors could not be loyal to them."

After saying that, Li Ruobing kept leaning down and bowing, looking at Zhao Huan with a fiery look.

Zhao Huan looked at Empress Zhu with a confused look on her face, then looked at Li Gang, who was trying to eat people as if he had seen a traitor, and said with a smile: "There are things that can be done, but there are some failures, but the wise ones do not take them."

After Zhao Huan finished speaking, Empress Zhu was still confused, but Li Gang, Wang Shiyong and others almost collapsed on the ground, just worried that they would not be able to lose their manners in the future, so they barely kept sitting in a straight position.

But Li Ruobing breathed a long sigh of relief.

The words Li Ruobing said were exactly the words clearly stated in "Han Feizi·First Meeting Qin", while Zhao Huan also used the words in "Han Feizi·Speaking of the Forest" to answer Li Ruobing, but only omitted the four words "I am not in the right time".

The original word "defeat the time" added, which means that things fail when done, so it is believed that not doing it is better than doing it because people only see when they lose money.

But after omitting these four words, the meaning becomes that things may fail when they are done, but it is always easier than not to do them.

For Li Ruobing, it doesn’t matter whether the official deliberately omitted the four words “betray the time”. What is important is the attitude expressed by the official through this sentence—

The day for the Legalists to make a name for themselves is coming!

Zhao Huan looked at Empress Zhu who was still confused, then looked at Li Gang, Wang Shiyong, and Li Ruobing, who were sitting on pins and needles but barely stayed calm, and Li Ruobing, who was smiling on his face, and suddenly laughed: "Forget it, I won't talk about these things in the court. Let's go to the Zhu family village together later."

...

The Zhu family Dalang felt a little depressed.

I can also go to Xixia to fight for the autumn wind. When I am lucky, I can not only be able to get along with some good horses, but also catch some workers and sell them to Fengshengzhou for money. However, since the officials personally conquered Xixia, everything has become different.

Xixia is gone. The original Xixia has now become the governor of Gansu, and the grassland and horse farm have become the Song Dynasty. I am not tired of living, so I will definitely not go to the horse farm where the army is stationed to steal horses.

The problem is that the workers who should have been caught for money were also caught by the imperial guards and the only ones who were killed, and they didn't even have any hair left for themselves!

Could it be that I would let myself, the famous "Xiliang Horse Stealer", wash my hands?
