BXBX NOVEL Chapter 221: deep change
In the afternoon, Li Yin went to the governor\'s office, and he summoned Shangguanyi, Dou Xiande, and Wang Yinlong to hold a small meeting.
"Your Highness!" Li Yin entered the official office, and the three saluted Li Yin together.
Li Yin nodded and sat down on the throne. Now the conflict between him and the nobles is becoming more and more acute, and the possibility of causing conflicts is also increasing. Time is running out. He must further strengthen his rule over Bashu, which involves To carry out more in-depth reforms of Yizhou\'s government affairs, rather than staying on the surface.
"Sit down." Li Yin waved his hand, "I only brought you three people here today, you should understand what I mean?"
The three of them looked at each other and nodded at the same time. Shangguanyi said, "Could it be that your Highness is talking about the Cui family stealing and selling private salt?"
Li Yin nodded slightly.
Wang Yinlong went a step further and said: "Your Highness only let us come over, but not Cui Zhang, Cui Tong and the others. I\'m afraid the intention is not just for private salt. Trust the people of the Cui clan."
Shangguanyi and Dou Xiande both had the same idea in their hearts, but they dared not say it. Only Wang Yinlong was more courageous and outspoken.
Glancing at the three of them, Li Yin took their expressions into his eyes, and he said: "Now the Cui family has been divided into two factions, or in other words, Cui Shao and the Cui family have broken up, and everyone in Cui Zhang is now It is from the Cui family who broke with Cui Shao, how can Yizhou use such a person?"
"Hey, I have expected such a day." Shangguanyi suddenly sighed. He, a native, sometimes has a better understanding of the situation in the Tang Dynasty than Li Min, "Although your Highness\'s governance methods for Bashu are beneficial to the prosperity and strength of Bashu, they are destroying the soil for the survival of the gentry, and differences in ideas will inevitably cause Confrontation, if not because of the princess, Cui Shao would probably stand with others."
Dou Xiande\'s family is not considered a powerful family, so naturally he did not consider it in the direction of a powerful family. He said: "My lord Shangguan is right. Different political ideas will definitely cause confrontation."
Modern nouns came out of their mouths one by one. Li Yin said with a smile: "You all have learned the subject of politics very well now, and you also know the political philosophy."
"There is no way, if you don\'t learn, you will fall behind. Now the students of the School of Political Affairs are all better than us, and we are also deeply panicked." Shangguanyi had a hard time accepting those new government affairs concepts at first, but as time went by, coupled with In actual governance, he gradually began to appreciate the power of this advanced concept, so he no longer rejected it. Instead, start studying hard.
Dou Xiande and Wang Yinlong felt the same way and nodded in agreement.
Li Yin is very pleased, he worked so hard to move books and courseware from modern times to Tang Dynasty, after all, it was not in vain. So he said: "Since this is the case, you should also understand the current situation. In the future, the development of Yizhou may be completely out of touch with other places in Datang, and sometimes there may be conflicts due to differences in ideas, but you don\'t have to worry about this. You just need to manage Bashu well, and I will be responsible for handling the conflicts."
"Yes, Your Highness!" The three said in unison.
Li Yin continued: "It\'s the same as the military academy. From now on, the king will work with you to select students with excellent grades to serve in the Bashu states and establish a new government affairs system, so that the entire Bashu government orders can be uniform. This will be a one-time Deep changes."
The three of them instantly understood that after the in-depth reform of the military system, the government system also ushered in a deep reform, which also heralded a complete break between Li Yin and the nobles.
At this meeting, Li Yin announced specific rectification rules. Among them, Shangguanyi, Dou Xiande, and Wang Yinlong were no longer only responsible for the government affairs of Yizhou, but began to coordinate the government affairs of the seventeen prefectures of Bashu. The functions and powers of the government were also re-divided. Shangguanyi served as the governor of the Shu Palace and was responsible for the government affairs of the prime minister, which was equivalent to the governor of the province.
Wang Yinlong had a relatively strong personality, and joined the army as a recorder. Li Yin asked him to replace Cui Zhang, and set up a new institution, the Supervisory Yuan, which was similar in nature to the modern procuratorate. It was responsible for legal supervision and investigation of corruption, etc. It is not managed by Shangguanyi.
Su Mo\'er\'s position is what modern society calls political and legal director. He is responsible for public security and counter-insurgency. Select and add to each position.
In this in-depth reform, Li Yin did not copy the modern democratic system. He only wanted to take a small step forward, and he didn\'t want to take a big step forward, otherwise it would only cause problems. An administrative system between democracy and democracy is exactly what he likes.
The three of Shangguanyi listened to Li Yin\'s words and were busy recording. The three of them were all excited. They were all veterans who followed Li Yin, and now they have received corresponding rewards, especially Wang Yinlong, who came from a poor family. His success has inspired many people. The young scholars also indirectly promoted Li Yin.
In addition to the appointment of the three, Li Yin asked them to begin to import some advanced management methods into various institutions. For example, the Shiyi Division added some students studying business administration to let them re-regulate the commercial market. At the same time, they also introduced finance, water conservancy, Health, taxation and other departments have been established to completely change the bad habits of local officials to catch everything.
The meeting lasted until dark, and Li Yin spoke dryly. In fact, the students of the School of Political Affairs understood these things very well. After all, they are not just for nothing. They all knew exactly how to establish a complete government agency, but Li Yin had to speak in the general direction, otherwise they would not dare to move.
"Your Highness, after these reforms, Bashu will surely become more prosperous." Shangguanyi said excitedly.
Li Yin is not modest either, "Our Bashu is taking a different path, and others can see it as they like, as long as the people\'s lives are prosperous."
"Your Highness really loves the people like a son!" Dou Xiande seldom flattered once. After saying that, several people laughed. This was not because of Dou Xiande\'s flattery, but because Li Yin showed them a bright future. , This is what these scholars pursue.
Unlike the hopeful Shangguanyi and others, Cui Zhang and Cui Tong understood their fate after receiving the notice of suspension. On the third day after Li Min\'s return, Shang Cui Wanqing was announced to be dismissed from his post.
"What should we do now? The family is now going to elect a new patriarch, which means that we and the princess are on the opposite side. His Highness probably saw this and can no longer trust us." Cui Wanqing said anxiously.
Cui Tong said dejectedly: "What else can I do? If it weren\'t for those four idiots who smuggled private salt, His Highness probably wouldn\'t be so angry.
In the whole room, only Cui Tong and Cui Wanqing kept arguing, while Cui Zhang was silent. At this moment, he finally couldn\'t help it, "Stop arguing, both of you, this is not about private salt, nor is it about family affairs. The problem of contradictions, this is caused by the nobles and His Highness\'s new government philosophy, and now His Highness is confronted with the northern dignitaries, with His Highness\'s temper, can he tolerate the emergence of a political force in his fief?"
Cui Zhang\'s words silenced the two of them. After a while, Cui Wanqing asked, "Will His Highness kill us?"
Cui Tong and Cui Zhang felt a chill when they heard the words, he said: "Let\'s go find the princess, and hope His Highness can let us go back to Chang\'an."
The long meeting ended, and Li Yin rode back. As soon as he entered the palace, he saw Cui Yingying standing alone in the main hall. Jin Daqian came over at this time and said, "Your Highness, Cui Zhang has come to look for the princess."
Li Yin handed the horse over to Jin Daqian, and he went straight into the main hall, only to see that Cui Yingying\'s eyes were still wet from tears, obviously she had just cried, he walked up to Cui Yingying and said, "You know everything?"
Nodding her head, Cui Yingying said: "Why is this happening? When I was in Chang\'an, I felt that something was wrong. Although the people in the family were very polite when they saw me, they were still a little unfamiliar. I was still very surprised. Only now did I understand why. ?”
Li Yin and Cui Yingying\'s marriage is a political marriage, and they are easily influenced by each other\'s families. Li Yin has always been worried about this moment, but sometimes he has to face, "Yingying, now the Cui family is not the previous Cui family." Yes, your father chose me, which makes me very grateful, but you must understand that the relationship between the palace and the Cui family is no longer as harmonious as before, except for your father, of course, and I will also send a letter to the royal father , let him give your father support, but he may no longer have family support in the future."
Although this result is not what Cui Yingying would like to see, but she understands that the current situation of the Cui family is powerless. No matter how you say it, his parents and his husband are the most important people to her. It doesn\'t matter anymore.
"Your Highness, I understand. In the future, Yingying will only be the princess of Shu, and will no longer be the eldest daughter of the Cui family of Boling, and will no longer seek benefits for the Cui family in Yizhou. From now on, Yingying will only be His Highness\'s woman."
Li Yan looked at the tearful Cui Yingying, took her into his arms, and breathed a sigh of relief: "Okay, from now on, you will only be the princess of the Shu Palace, and don\'t bother with those intrigues anymore."
"Yes!" Cui Yingying raised her head in response, "It\'s just that Yingying still has one last thing to ask Your Highness!"
Li Yin smiled and said: "I understand that Cui Zhang and the others are involuntary, and they have done a lot for Yizhou. Although I can no longer trust them because of the relationship between the Cui family, I will not kill them mercilessly. Yes, I will let them return to Cui\'s house safely, including those four who participated in the smuggling of salt, as for whether they will be enemies or friends in the future, it depends on God\'s will!"
Cui Yingying nodded, and her arms holding Li Yin tightened. (To be continued..)
