Chapter 701: I call the shots on my site
Chapter 701: I will make the decision on my territory
Once the emperor and the ministers are born, the new king ascends the throne, and the rules must be changed. Although Chen Ao is not the new king, he is still close. He said that he should set rules, but no one opposed it.
Chen arrogantly said: "The court discusses once a month, but before the court discusses, the departments and courts can write a picture of the government affairs that they are preparing to discuss and hand it into the palace. I don't like to talk about anything, so I just need to clarify the government affairs one by one according to the handed one."
Chen Ao originally wanted to change the national system. Although the Western Xia and the Song Dynasty were similar, the three-provincial system was just an empty space in the Western Xia. With these three provinces, he could be as happy as Zhao Ji. With the three provinces, he would be able to check and balance each other and appoint a wise chief minister, he would generally not have any deviations in national affairs, and he could retreat behind the scenes and be a referee.
However, the Supreme Emperor is still there, and now he is a little embarrassed to demolish the other person's station. Chen Ao simply won't mention this for now. Anyway, you can clarify the state affairs first at these times. At least you have to know how to proceed, and then make drastic restructuring.
Chen Ao narrowed his eyes and saw that no one objected, he continued, "I am a ruling king, and the emperor has also suffered from minor illnesses. The most urgent task at the moment is to stabilize the people's hearts." He hit the imperial case, feeling that the imperial case and the public case were similar. It was quite comfortable to knock on it. If there was another gavel, it would be even more comfortable.
Chen Ao continued: "Draft an edict to pardon the world. Except for death row prisoners and serious crimes, all criminals will be given lighter..." He pondered for a moment and continued: "Every prefectures and counties will be exempted from taxes for one year."
When the word "free from fu" was spoken out, the court suddenly started to buzz. It would be fine if it was just a state and a county, but the issue of exempting taxes from the whole country was difficult to see. Although I knew that it was a troublesome now, what would the court eat if it was exempted from fu?
Only the Minister of Revenue and the Minister of Rites Yang Zhen pursed his lips and smiled. One year of exemption from taxes is the fastest way to win over people's hearts. As for taxes, I am not afraid. After the house was confiscated half a year ago, the imperial court confiscated as tens of millions of dollars. Although it was not included in the treasury, they were still lying quietly in the inner treasury. As long as they were willing to take it out, they could barely support it even if they were exempted from taxes for three years. After all, the Western Xia is not as generous as the Song Dynasty. The military pay for the Song Dynasty is astronomical. However, not only did the military pay for the Western Xia was relatively low, but many of them were still carried out in the form of corvee labor, and the water control was not as small as the Song Dynasty.
Now that the chaos is imminent, it is enough to minimize the scale of the accident. As long as you calculate this transaction seriously, smart people will understand the mystery.
As someone was about to stand up and oppose, Yang Zhen immediately said, "Your Highness is wise." He was the first to stand up to express his opinion, which was considered to be blocking Youyou's mouth.
Chen Ao glanced at Yang Zhen with appreciation and said seriously: "There is another thing. At present, only three armies are left in the imperial guards. The defense of the Gyeonggi is too lax, so we need to purify it. The inner treasury can take out two million guan to purify the accompanying troops near the Gyeonggi, and draw out some strong selected imperial guards to practice. I heard that there is a military named Wuda. Where are the Uda people now?"
Hearing the two words Wuda, the people below whispered. Wuda was a country. He didn't expect that the Regent was the first to promote him. The Minister of War stood up and said, "Your Highness, Wuda has been abolished and has been in Longxing Mansion."
Chen Aohe nodded and said, "It is said that he entered the palace. I want to see him. The newly formed imperial guards are led by him. The number of imperial guards is 30,000. There are five battalions. Let's join the three imperial guards to form the eighth army." After a pause, he continued, "As the Minister of Rites, I attach great importance to it. I will enter the province to rule the province from now on."
At this time, Menxiasheng was just a false position, and was originally reserved for the people of the country. Now Chen Ao directly transferred Yang Zhen into the school, which is also a kind of honor, and at least it can prove that Yang Zhen is still favored.
Chen Ao said slowly again: "Where is Wang Zhao, the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel?"
A short and fat official in the class stood up and said, "The subordinate is here."
Chen Ao looked at Wang Zhao and immediately subverted his image of Wang Zhao. This guy has more elements like a businessman, and he was so fat that he could not have thought that he was still a straight minister. He was indeed a person who was not good at being a handsome man.
Chen Ao smiled and said, "The Supreme Emperor mentioned the direct name of the King of the King in front of me many times. He will temporarily join the Secretariat and also be the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel." Finally, he said, "Wu Tsai leads Lu..."
When Chen Ao saw Wutai tied Lu, he flashed a little displeasure, but this person's identity was sensitive and he could not be touched at this time, so he just hung up.
Wu Tu came from Ban*** coldly and bowed, "Your Highness."
Chen Ao said: "If you lead Lord Lu, go to the Secretariat."
Wu Tu nodded coldly. The so-called entry into the Secretariat was just a formality. Yang Zhen entered the school as the Minister of Rites, and with his own influence, this Secretariat was equivalent to giving real power. As for Wang Zhao as the Minister of Rites, he had the power to examine officials on the one hand and the responsibility of inspectors, which was well deserved. As for Wu Tu, this Lu was just a false position, similar to the Taifu, Taishi, and other things of the Song Dynasty. Even if he went to the Secretariat, he would not make any noise. Although the Secretariat commanded the six ministries, the real power among the six ministries was distributed among the Ministry of Revenue, the Ministry of Personnel, the Ministry of Rites, and the Ministry of War. The Ministry of Rites was Yang Zhen, and the Minister of War was also a disciple of Yang Zhen, so he naturally would not pay attention to the Secretariat. The Ministry of Personnel would fall into Wang Zhao's hands sooner or later, and the Secretariat of the Ministry of Revenue has always been his own family, so he might not have to look at the Secretariat's face.
Such an arrangement is roughly to package the rights and distribute them to Yang Zhen and Wang Zhao, and in addition, some big shots are cultivated to surround the two of them.
However, Chen Ao grasped the military power firmly. If the newly promoted Wuda was truly loyal to him as Li Ganshun said, he would definitely not have been with Yang Zhen and Wang Zhao as a member of the other country. Besides, the officers of the imperial guards were chosen by the Ming Wutang. These people were Han people, so they were naturally loyal to him. Even if Wuta had any evil intentions, they would probably not be able to mobilize them. In addition, there was a cavalry controlled by the Martial Arts School. With this arrangement, the entire Xixia New Dynasty Bureau was established.
Chen Ao said something, and felt that there was nothing to add, so he said, "If nothing happens, I will retreat to the court."
Yang Zhen said: "Your Highness, I have something to report."
Chen Ao smiled and said, "You said."
Yang Zhen said: "Your Highness, the envoy of the Jin Kingdom has submitted a letter of state, asking for food, grass and weapons from our Daxia, and ask your highness to decide."
Unexpectedly, if you become the regent, you will still have to go back to your old career. After hearing this, Chen Ao smiled faintly and said, "Take the letter of the country first and let me see the rest of the matter."
After saying that, he announced the scattered dynasty and entered the harem.
The discussion in Chongwen Hall has not yet dissipated, and the impact is far-reaching. Not to mention, Yang Zhen has decided to enter the central government. Even if he only becomes a minister of the Ministry of Rites, he will still be relied on by the Regent. However, Wang Zhao went straight into the Minister of the Central Secretariat, which was something that no one expected. Wang Zhao showed a deep thought expression on his face. Someone from the side came to congratulate him, so he reluctantly replied and then came back to his senses. Even Yang Zhen came to congratulate him with a smile. Wang Zhao just said that there was something to be done in the department, so he left the court.
"Mr. Yang, how could the Regent like that person, why would the regent look down on him?" An official approached Yang Zhen carefully and whispered.
Yang Zhen stroked his beard and smiled, but he felt relieved. If the Regent had handed over all the government affairs to him, he might not have dared to take over. People who have always had great achievements and great power have not ended up well. Now that he has arranged a Wang Zhao, he has relieved him. He suddenly remembered someone in his heart. Wang Zhao had entered the court for thirty years and served as the Minister of Personnel seven years ago. He has been in cold storage since then. Could it be that His Majesty has kept him till today?
Yang Zhen naturally thought about Li Ganshun and Yang Zhen. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was right. He couldn't help but sigh that His Majesty's move not only fulfilled the regent, but also fulfilled him.
After talking for a while, the court officials dispersed. Although today's court discussion was brief, there were a lot of things to be digested. You all wanted to go back to the yamen office or home to make a pot of fragrant tea and digest it well.

Chen Ao arrived at the harem. Wherever he passed along the way, the eunuchs and palace servants saluted one after another. Chen Ao nodded to their heads and went to Shufen Pavilion, which used to be the bridal chamber of Chen Ao and Miaomiao, and now it is also the place where Miaomiao temporarily lives.
As he passed by, he saw the window lattice open and a figure looking upstairs. Chen Ao quickly walked over and entered the pavilion. Miaomiao rushed into her arms. Chen Ao sighed in his heart that he was so agile in his arms. Could it be that Miaoer had practiced it?
Chen Ao hugged the person in his arms tightly, Miaomiao cried in his arms: "What's wrong with Father? There is no news at all. Have you ever seen it?"
Chen Ao took a deep breath, but didn't know how to answer, but just comforted him: "Fortunately, the Supreme Emperor just doesn't want to see you like this, so he won't see you. Isn't it worrying that you are crying like this now? Besides, his greatest wish is to wait for you, mother and son to be safe, and then go and see him together. You must take good care of your health and not let him down."
After saying something, looking at Miao'er's face, she realized that her face had become much thinner, but her belly was bulging a lot. Chen Ao didn't dare to touch it, but just looked around and couldn't help but say silly: "When you are born, you must hit it well. No one can learn from his father."
Miao'er has been worried and afraid these days. When she saw Chen Ao, she finally had a backer and felt a little cheerful. She said angrily: "Why can't you be like you?"
Chen Ao said seriously: "Your Highness the Princess doesn't understand it now. His father can't learn it. He is afraid that he will learn half a bucket of water and will not bully others, so he will do all the losses. People like me..." Chen Ao said in a deep tone: "No one has been released for a hundred years, so I have always warned the children that this king has been specially treated and must not imitate it."
When Miao'er heard his nonsense, she smiled and kissed him lightly on his neck, saying, "I also said that you are only concerned about hang out with Bian Jing's wife, and you can't remember us mother and son anymore."
Chen Ao protected her to rest on the couch, and said with a smile: "How dare you, how dare you? I will only be a bastard like Ximen Qing and Chen Shimei, I don't want to do it." Let Miaoer lean in her arms, but her eyes were extremely sacred and sacred at the forty-five degrees of elevation towards the beams of carved beams and painted buildings, and said word by word: "I am a scholar."
Miao'er closed her eyes and lay on her back comfortably, her pretty face flushed, and she listened quietly to Chen Ao's speech, smacking her lips happily, throwing all the anxiety and insecurity behind her. At this time, she couldn't help but say, "I heard that she is the most unfaithful scholar, which is what she said in the play."
Chen Ao said in surprise: "Why do I listen to it differently from you? If you are unfaithful, you are not a scholar."
Just as he was about to quit, he found that Miao'er had been lying quietly in his arms and fell asleep. His pair of eyelashes trembled slightly. I don't know if it was a fake sleep, Chen Ao had to sigh, carefully put her on the bed, cover her with a quilt, and then retreat from the pavilion. He went out to ask the palace servant who was serving in the pavilion, and only then did he realize that the princess had not had a good sleep when she heard that Chen Ao was coming. In addition, Li Ganshun's affairs made her even more melancholy.
Chen Ao sighed again, then took his hands and walked around the harem. In fact, you cannot walk around in the harem. Even Chen Ao, the regent, must not break the rules. After all, there are many concubines of Li Ganshun living here. If it is misunderstood, it will be really unjust to die. Chen Ao has no tendency to control it. Generally speaking, it is a bit different from the Ximen official. Therefore, when walking around, try not to go to Yue Cave and the Palace Pavilion, and call a few eunuchs to follow him to show his integrity.
In fact, the summer palace is much smaller than the imperial palace in Bianjing, but it is also dizzy enough. Li Ganshun is critically ill again, so no one comes out to walk around casually. Chen Ao is unobstructed all the way. When he returned to the pavilion, he saw Miao'er still sleeping. He knew that she was extremely sleepy and could not wake up in less than three or four hours, so he called a few eunuchs and said to them: "Get out of the palace!"
"Leave the palace..." Several eunuchs looked at each other in a daze.
