Chapter 700
The discussion in the Yizheng Hall lasted for a whole day, and the five laws and three policies were decided to be implemented.

During the discussion, officials from various ministries expressed some opinions and added some opinions.

Among them, Chen Zhenhui, a flower explorer from the Western Wei Dynasty last year, proposed to add a policy to the assessment of officials, that the government of each state should settle down the administration of officials, as a reference for the assessment of officials.

In the southeastern region, the economy is developed and the thinking is active enough. The rising wealthy class, after mastering a large amount of wealth, wants to obtain more political rights.

Therefore, thinkers like Li Zhi appeared in the southeast a long time ago to speak out for the new class.

The Southeast Civil Service Group, which represents the interests of the Southeast, has always wanted to seize control of the imperial court from the emperor.

Before the Song Dynasty, after the reform of Confucianism by Dong Zhongshu, the idea promoted was that the power of the monarch was granted by the gods, and the relationship between heaven and man was the same.

Under this kind of thinking, everyone must obey the imperial power, which caused the imperial power to gradually overwhelm the ministers. In the Song Dynasty, in order to restrain the emperor and prevent the imperial power from completely overwhelming the ministers, civil officials finally came up with something, which was morality.

The West relies on the constitution to restrict royal power, which believes that "the king is under the law", but after the Song Dynasty, the new Confucianism in China believes that "the king is under virtue", and the emperor's power does not come from heaven, but from his benevolence If you lose your virtue, you will lose the world, and you can be replaced.

And who holds the interpretation of virtue?Naturally, it is the scholar-bureaucrat class.

This is also the main ideological basis for the entire Ming Dynasty, the emperor and the civil official group, especially in the late Ming Dynasty, the civil officials used to fight against the emperor.

This kind of thought of restraining people by morality has continued to influence China until today.

In the late Ming Dynasty, civil officials restricted many behaviors of the emperor through morality, and sought a lot of personal benefits for the gentry group.

However, the emerging merchants and rich households still did not directly hold power, but needed to combine with gentry, or transform themselves into gentry, in order to gain political power.

Li Yan's five-class civilian strategy made Chen Zhenhui, who was influenced by the Taizhou School and Li Zhi's thoughts, see an opportunity to restrain the government and let the people supervise the officials' governance.

This suggestion was immediately supported by Xinke Jinshi Mao Pijiang, who is also from the south of the Yangtze River. However, Li Yan was worried that officials would collude with Shanghu to harm the interests of the poor and satisfy Shanghu, so he opposed it.

Gao Yihuan is also very vigilant about this and holds a reserved attitude, so for now, only Shanghu is given the right to participate in state and county discussions. As for whether to give other rights in the future, it will be discussed later.

Now everything is aimed at unification, and the unification war must gather all the human, financial, and material resources of the Western Wei State. Gao Yihuan feels that it is not the time to decentralize power.

However, if the later Western Wei Dynasty unified the world, the rising merchants and rich people would definitely seek channels to express their political demands when they became stronger day by day.

In addition to this episode, the customs officials also proposed two strategies, which were adopted by Gao Yihuan.

One strategy is the military disarmament law, which is combined with the four battalion systems of the Western Wei Dynasty. It stipulates that the old and weak in the army should be cleaned up, and the soldiers will be tested. Those who have won the title of knighthood or are disabled due to war retain the treatment of military households, but after they have not made meritorious service and are eliminated, they will no longer enjoy the policy of tax reduction and exemption.

The second strategy is the Armament Supervision Law, which further strictly manages the manufacture of arms and improves the quality of weapons.

In this way, Wei Guoxin's national policy has become five laws and five policies. Gao Yihuan should express his position immediately and let the cabinet implement it as soon as possible.

If the new policy can be implemented smoothly, Gao Yihuan believes that the strength of Wei State will rise to a new level.

In the afternoon, the meeting ended, but Gao Yihuan couldn't get a rest. He hurried to the study and summoned Zhou Ronghua and Sun Fangyuan.

In the room, Gao Yihuan read a memorial. It was Liang Yizhang who came from Sichuan, saying that Niu Jinxing had returned to Chengdu and brought back some news about Sun Kewang.

Sun Kewang defeated Zeng Ying by the Chishui River, joined forces with Liu Zongmin in Zunyi, and took advantage of the victory to capture Guiyang.

Niu Jinxing caught up with Sun Kewang in Guiyang. At that time, the forward of the Western Army had already turned to Yunnan.

According to Niu Jinxing's observation, after the Western Army entered Guizhou, many soldiers began to flee, and Sun Kewang's situation was not very good.

Therefore, after learning of Niu Jinxing's intentions, Sun Kewang immediately expressed his willingness to declare himself a vassal to the Western Wei State, and was willing to exchange the copper mines and tea from Yunnan and Guizhou for the rice grains of the Western Wei State.

After reading the memorial, Gao Yihuan closed it, saw the two people sitting in the outer hall through the hollow partition, and called out, "Let them in!"

Zhou Ronghua and Sun Fangyuan, who were sitting on mahogany chairs with half of their buttocks, saw the guards come out to call them, they stood up hurriedly, straightened their official robes, straightened their Wusha caps, and walked into the inner hall.

"My lord, I pay my respects to the king!"

Gao Yihuan smiled slightly, raised his hand and said, "The two Qing families don't need to be too polite. I summoned you today, and the lonely king has something to ask you."

The two stood up, Zhou Ronghua bowed and said: "Your Majesty, if there is anything you need to ask, I will tell you everything."

Gao Yihuan nodded and asked, "What's the situation in Hetao now? Do the Manchus have any intention of withdrawing their troops?"

As the saying goes, it is impossible to allow others to snore and sleep on the side of the couch, but the Qing army not only slept next to him, but also brought a knife to Gao Yihuan's waist and eyes.

The land of Hetao is exactly on the back of Guanzhong. The Qing army stationed troops here is like putting a sharp knife on Gao Yihuan's head.

Let the Wei army in Guanzhong dare not act rashly. If the Wei army goes out of Tongguan to attack Henan, or out of Pujindu to attack Shanxi, the Qing army in Hetao can go south and attack Guanzhong, making the Wei army strategically passive.

Zhou Ronghua said: "Reporting to Your Majesty, the Qing army did not retreat, but instead increased their troops."

Gao Yihuan frowned, "After Hetao was looted by our Great Wei, the Qing army wanted to garrison Hetao, and the supplies needed to be transported from the pass. The Manchu Qing actually withstood the pressure of logistics and continued to increase troops. What do they want to do?"

Zhou Ronghua said: "It should be preparing to attack Mongolia, or to attack us in Guanzhong!"

"What's the situation in Mobei Mongolia now?" Gao Yihuan asked.

Zhou Ronghua said: "The Qing army has failed to return to the Guanzhong after several raids on Mobei Mongolia. It has already become suspicious and is putting pressure on Mobei Mongolia. Chechen Khan hopes that the king can provide some more soldiers, food and supplies for the Chechen army." cloth!"

Gao Yihuan frowned, waved and said, "Give it to him, let him exchange it with a horse!"

At this time, the sky was approaching dusk, and the officials working in each yamen cleared their tables and prepared to return to their respective mansions.

Inside the Yamen of the Ministry of War, Kuang Pengsheng patted the shoulder of a principal, "Master Song, go for a drink?"

The principal, Song Congxin, shook his head, "No, I have something else to do, so let's go first!"

After finishing speaking, Song Congxin tidied up the table hastily, and then quickly left the office. Kuang Pengsheng looked at his back in a hurry, and was a little surprised. Suddenly seeing another colleague, he smiled again: "Brother Liu, do you want to have a drink?"

·······
In the city of Xi'an, because the Great Wei established its capital here, it brought a large number of public officials, and thus spawned many restaurants in the city.

Near Taiping Street, where the government offices of the Western Wei Dynasty gather, there are many restaurants.

At this time, Song Congxin, the head of the Ministry of War, came to a small restaurant, walked directly through the lobby, walked up to the second floor, opened the curtain and walked into a room.

Sitting in the private room was a thin, vicious man, pouring himself a drink. When he saw Song Congxin coming in, he immediately raised his eyebrows, "You are late!"

Song Congxin sat down opposite him without saying a word, took out a piece of paper from his arms, and said coldly: "This is what you want, and there is a complete list of transactions between the Western Wei Dynasty and the three parts of Mobei on it. I hope you don't want it." Come find me again!"

The sinister man took the paper, looked at it, and smiled sinisterly at Song Congxin.

On the opposite side of the restaurant, Kuang Pengsheng was drinking with Liu Xiangke, but his brows suddenly frowned, just in time to see from the window, Song Congxin came out of the opposite restaurant~
