Chapter 947 The Second Council of Counselors

Regardless of whether he really lost all his ambitions, was really willing to delegate power, and was really willing to hand over Kang to Wang Fu, Wang Fu would not violate the Magna Carta and tie himself up.

The Council of Ministers jointly decided that if they disagreed with Wang Fu's decree, Wang Fu would not forcefully implement the policy. However, by the same token, as long as Wang Fu did not violate the charter that was the foundation of the country, there was nothing that could be done to Wang Fu.

Every cent.

Did Xian really let it go? Not only did Wang Fu not know, but he himself didn’t know either. His words contained temptation, as well as his doubts and confusion.

When the Northern Expedition, the thing that I have been thinking about so much, cannot be carried out, the rest of my life will have many forks in the road.

"Ivan III will inherit the title of Grand Duke of the Principality of Rus after he returns. Is it possible to join forces with Ivan III to defeat the Golden Horde?" After he finished speaking, he shook his head and said, "Let's talk about it later."

Wang Fu personally met with Ivan. In fact, he also had this mentality. It was just a casual move. It would be the best if he could do it. If he couldn't, it wouldn't be a big deal.

Wang Fu said to him first: "Recently, our country, Kang, has been having friction with the Ottoman Kingdom. On the surface, Fatih has made peace with us, but secretly, he has never given up the idea of ​​taking advantage of the situation."

"If you are willing to fight, you will perish; if you forget to fight, you will be in danger. You should fight frequently, otherwise the sword will become dull."

He also waved his hands first and said: "You can decide these things. Tell me, I can't even see the map clearly, let alone get on the horse. Tell me, I don't know either."

The Wara people led by Ye Xian fought based on intuition. The current Wara regiment is completely different from the original. Even if Ye Xian takes command now, he doesn't know how to start.

Wang Fuhe also spoke for a long time before Wang Fu left Lan Palace and headed towards Kang Palace. During this trip to Lan Palace, he also tested out his attitude towards continuing westward to Batu Sarai.

Even if the trip cannot be made, I have accepted it for the time being. I have no intention of taking any more care, or I am unable to take care of it, of all the affairs of Kang State, whether it is military dispatch, diplomacy, or financial affairs that I have never taken care of at all.

If you don’t have that ability, you’ll make more mistakes if you take more care, and you’ll make fewer mistakes if you take less care, no matter how good it is.

Throughout February, the friction between Kang State and the Ottoman Kingdom intensified. From scouts infiltrating each other, to fighting between teams, to fighting between armies, the situation became more and more intense. Kang State and the Ottoman Kingdom kept sending envoys to communicate with each other. This friction was mainly

It is to establish the territory. It can be said that the two sides will not give in and care about every inch.

Soon there was a big battle between the regiments of Kang State and the regiments of the Ottoman Kingdom. The regiment camps of Kang State were defeated and defeated. Seeing the opportunity, the Ottoman Kingdom immediately began to march eastward. In May, Wang Yue rushed back to Kangding and stood on the shore of Aral Sea Lake.

, Huoxun City (now Mujnak) defeated two regiments of the Ottoman Kingdom.

Then the six regiments and battalions of Kang State divided into three groups to attack Ozakli, the eastern province of the Ottoman Kingdom. They drove straight in and killed several emirs (lords), and seized the Sanjak (imperial flag) of the eastern province.

Approaching the city of Ozakli, he forced Fatih to give in.

Fatih went into a rage and beheaded a number of officials, which was his biggest humiliation after ascending to the throne. The invincible conqueror finally fell into disgrace in front of the visitors from the east.

The result of the defeat was not only territorial concessions, but also high war reparations and nearly 300,000 silver each year to support the army, which made Fatih furious and unable to do anything.

This battle, known as the Battle of the Real World, ended with Kang's overall victory.

In the seventh month of Wang Yue's triumphant return, Wang Fu welcomed Wang Yue back to Kang Palace. In the Council Hall, he stood in the dome auditorium, holding a rag in his hand, discarding it casually, stepping on it under his feet, and loudly said:

"Sanjak of Ozakli, Eastern Ottoman Province."

"God's mercy and blessings!"

After Wang Fu waited for everyone to finish cheering, he came to a large box. After opening it, he shouted loudly: "The tax register of the Eastern Ottoman Province - Tarus."

What is recorded in this box is the population, acres, livestock, tribes, etc. of the entire eastern province, which involves the taxation of the eastern province.

"God's mercy and blessings!"

Wang Fu smiled and continued forward, opened another large box, picked up several parchments, held it up and shouted loudly: "Even Fatih has never seen the account book, the land book of the temple in the Eastern Ottoman Province -

— Waqf!”

Waqf is the public property of the temple. This kind of land does not levy any taxes, and has gradually become a hotbed for local military lords to evade service and taxes. And the land register in this box has not even been read by Fatih. Now

Wang Fu held it in his hand.

There were another burst of cheers, and then everyone once again put their left hands on their right shoulders and shouted loudly: "God's mercy and blessings!"

"Let's see what this is?" There was a cast iron box in front of Wang Fu. Although he didn't have the key, he already had it. There are many ways to open this iron box. Wang Fu opened the door and took out a few coins.

He opened the paper and looked at it and said: "It's Difutus, a secret that cannot be seen in the sun. Look what I saw. The Eastern Province actually protected a cousin of Fatih. Come to think of it, Fatih is willing to help this

Messages pay dearly."

"God has mercy on you!" After hearing this, everyone laughed for a while and bowed their heads again.

The Ottoman Guards succession law was extremely bloody. After Fatih became king, he killed all his brothers, sisters, and cousins. In order to kill the last cousin, Fatih even captured Constantine.

Castle, and the Eastern Province was harboring Fatih's cousin. This news reached Castle, and it was unknown what Fatih would look like.

Difutus is a secret document that records the discussions between the lords of the eastern provinces. It can explain many puzzling aspects, such as a certain Timar (a lord) completing a marriage in order to marry the daughter of another lord.

What kind of promises were made?

In the past, these counselors were the leaders of various tribes. They were more like bandit leaders than leaders. In the past, every time they won a battle, what they cared about most was how many children and women they snatched.

How many livestock have occupied, how many water plants have been occupied, and now, they have gotten rid of their low tastes and begun to care about legal principles, land titles, invisible property and secrets.

Wang Fu walked up to Wang Yue, patted his arm, turned around, and said loudly: "The tribune Wang Yue who led the army to a great victory is our hero. We were retreating steadily.

At that time, Wang Yue galloped thousands of miles back to Kangding, and then rushed to the front line without resting for a moment, and then fought and won!"

"Everyone knows that my wife is still on her way back to Kangding, and our tribune has returned in triumph."

This time, the counselors clenched their fists and shouted loudly: "God's mercy, blessing and peace! Heaven's mercy, blessing and peace! Heaven's mercy, blessing and peace!"

Wang Fu stretched out his hand, pressed it down to signal everyone to be quiet, and then continued: "What should we reward our tribunes? Beauty? Gold and silver? Territory? These tribunes already have it. I have a suggestion.

Ask the Ming Emperor for a knighthood."

As soon as Wang Fu said this, everyone was whispering. Wang Fu stood on the platform of the dome auditorium without saying a word, just waiting for them to discuss in a low voice. The war was fierce and dangerous, Fatih was coming menacingly, Wang Yue

After receiving the news through Pigeon Road, he rushed back to Samarkand day and night and led his army to fight, and won the battle.

In this battle of the Real World, Wang Yue's strategizing under the adverse trend and his aggressive aggression under the favorable trend made the counselors exclaim that it is incredible that the war can still be fought like this!

Kang's national power and strength were no match for the Ottomans. If Fatih dared to claim to be emperor, even the Khan would have to think of him.

After Fatih achieved an initial victory, he began to constantly mobilize his legions in preparation for expanding the results. After Wang Yue's victory in Huoxun City, the legions of the Ottoman Kingdom formed a long snake formation in the eastern province, that is,

This fleeting opportunity was seized by Wang Yue, who defeated the Ottoman Army. If the Yenicherry Army had not arrived in time to close the battle line, Wang Yue's counterattack would have been enough to swallow up the eastern province.

Defeat the strong with the weak and win in battle.

How to reward such military exploits?

"I don't think there's any problem." Boyan Timur was the first to express his opinion. He didn't think there was anything wrong with this. He also first issued the gold seal that was used for sealing and was awarded by the Ming Dynasty. In the entire Western Region, everyone believed that Kang State was the Ming Dynasty.

The expeditionary army won the battle. Kang State was a vassal state and had nothing to reward, so I just asked the Ming Dynasty to reward me.

Kang State may disappear at any time, but Ming Dynasty will not disappear just because it is gone.

"If you have any doubts, you can tell me." Wang Fu stood with his hands behind his hands and kept answering questions. For example, a counselor asked whether their children and grandchildren could apply for a title from the Ming Dynasty if they obtained military honors in the future. Wang Fu said

There were Tatar officials in the Ming Dynasty, and there were also Tatars who were granted the title of marquis.

When it came time to vote, more than two-thirds of the people agreed. Wang Fu picked up a small hammer, knocked it on the bronze tripod, wrote his name on the discussion paper, sealed the discussion paper with fire paint, and stuffed it.

He entered the golden box held by the waiting maid next to him. The box was locked and was not opened until he arrived at Lan Palace. Yuya signed the seal first.

As for whether he should be sealed first, or find someone to be sealed, it would not be under the control of the king again.

The pen Wang Fu was holding in his hand was an imperial pen made by the Internal Warfare Bureau. It was an item that Wang Yue brought back to Kang State this time when he returned to the court. The people of Kang State were also used to some of the little bits and pieces that the Duke of Kang had never seen before.

"The second thing." Wang Fu looked around and said: "The two thirteen prefectures of Kang State changed their Chinese names. For example, Tashkent was renamed to Dawan, Ayimi City was renamed to Xi'an Prefecture, and Shymkent was renamed to Baishui.

Prefectures, etc., and the nine surnames of Zhaowu were restored to Han surnames, and the Turkic tribes and Olay tribes changed their surnames to Han surnames."

There are two thirteen mansions, because the official documents of Kang State are all in Chinese, which leads to a problem, that is, the administrative confusion caused by the conflict of place names. For example, Tashkent was renamed Dawan. In the local area, almost all the indigenous people called that mansion.

The city was called Dawan. After Timur conquered it, it was renamed Tashkent, but everyone still called it Dawan. This was administrative chaos.

And when Wang Fu changed the names of these places, it was not without purpose, but based on the names of the governor's mansions in the Western Regions of the Tang Dynasty.

For example, Termez was called Gumo Prefecture when it was first established, because that city was established when the Tang Dynasty established the Protectorate in the Western Regions. He always called it that name, and even the name Termiz was a translation.

The transliteration of the word Gumo.

As for the compounding of the nine surnames of Zhaowu and the change of the Turkic and Olay tribes to Han surnames, Wang Fu had been planning for a long time. If the people of Kang State did not have Han surnames, how could they still be called common people?

"I have no objection." Ashinahehuo said cheerfully. Ashinahehuo's family has an imperial edict from the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty. As a true survivor of the Tang Dynasty, Ashinahehuo changed his surname to Han.

Huo has long wanted to do it, but he just had to wait for the Ming Emperor to give him a new surname.

Boyan Timur thought about it and thought that all four of his sons had Han surnames. He smiled and said, "I don't object either."

From now on, no one can laugh at Boyan Timur's sons for having Han surnames, because they all have Han surnames.

"I don't object." Gegan Taiji didn't really want to agree, but after thinking about it, it didn't matter. People like Ross didn't object, so it was his turn to object?

Even the noble Choros clan of the Oara tribes, counting further ahead, is just a horse slave who herds horses in the back mountain. There is nothing noble about this surname. The lineage of the Jin family's Boljijin family is noble, but this is

The sweat is gone, but the flowers are not gone. Now the popular and spicy drinker in Tianjin Wei, my son is right.

Shi Heng especially likes to call the Walas people herding horses, because Choros itself means herding horses.

Wang Fu began to answer questions again, and then motioned for everyone to start voting. Only half of the votes agreed this time, and the remaining half thought that it was not bad to be in such a mess. Wang Fu did not drop the hammer, but just signed his name and sent it to Lan Palace.

If you agree first, then carry it out; if you disagree first, just discuss it again.

"The third thing." Wang Fu hesitated and said: "I propose to establish a second chamber outside the Advisory Council to interpret government decrees, collect public opinions, and have the responsibility of supervising the affairs of the Council to prevent us from consulting the Council.

The government's decrees were made behind closed doors and were inconsistent."

To build a chariot behind closed doors, and to make the same path when going out, means that the methods are the same, which means that the chariot is built behind closed doors, and it is also very consistent when used, because the methods used are the same. Zhu Xi mentioned it when he commented on "The Doctrine of the Mean" or Wen, that in the Song Dynasty

, working behind closed doors already has the meaning of making one's own decisions, not based on the actual situation, but only based on subjective imagination.

Supervision is something that must be improved in the construction of the country, and the Second Council of Counselors is the method that Wang Fu thought of. It needs to provide a promotion channel for the lower-level talents of Kang State and at the same time supervise the councilors. This is an executive system.

The reason why Wang Fu hesitated was because this proposal was a supervision mechanism he formulated based on the situation in Kang State. The Second Chamber had ten thousand advantages, but only one disadvantage, which was that it would harm the interests of the counselors.

Who wants to be stared at and pointed at every day?

After Wang Fu made this proposal, the dome auditorium fell silent.

Please give me a monthly ticket, wow!!!!!!!!!!!!
