Chapter 1392 Leftist, Rightist(1/2)
Hanjing, House of Representatives.
In the parliament hall, more than 700 representatives from the two sessions arrived.
Many officials from the Beijing yamen, including the Cabinet, Hanlin Academy and the Censorate, also arrived early to attend the meeting.
Privy Councilor Li Jing, Deputy Envoy Su Dingfang, Minister of War Li Xiuning, Marshal of the Northern Yai Qin Qiong, General Guo Xiaoke of the Central Army, General Li Junxian of the Left Qianniu Guard, General Wu Heita of the Left Jinwu Guard·····
The generals entered in silk-armored dresses made of silk.
Immediately afterwards, the Hanlin Academy's bachelors Ma Zhou, Xu Jingzong, Kong Yingda, Lu Deming, Li Shousu, Yu Shinan and others also came.
A group of bachelors came in and walked directly to the left.
Li Jing, Qin Qiong and other generals stood up to greet him with a smile, "You are going to sit with us."
"Yes." Ma Zhou smiled.
In the past, at the annual House of Representatives Two Sessions, civil and military officials from the court attended the meetings, but today, Li Jing and the others had already occupied the left side, and Ma Zhou did not go to the right side, and also came to the left to sit together.
Sun Fujia, Cui Gan, Zheng Shanguo and the others from the Dali Temple of the Censorate, also came. Ma Zhou waved to them with a smile, and they came straight over.
The people who came were almost the same, and the people from the cabinet also came.
Chu Chuliang, Cen Wenben, Yu Zhining, Yang Shidu and others came over with a smile.
·······
When Changsun Wuji, Du Yan, Dai Zhou and others came over, they were stunned for a moment when they saw this.
Changsun Wuji snorted, instead of going to the left, but turned directly to the right. Du Yan and Dai Zhou followed him.
Later, Yang Rengong, Yu Wen Shi, Gao Shilian and others also went to the right.
When everyone was almost there, the left and right sides were clearly separated in the parliament hall. On the left was Zhang Dang, mainly Ma Zhou, Chu Suiliang, Qin Qiong, Pingyang and others, and even the members sitting on the left were almost all their members.
On the right are civil and military officials and congressmen led by Changsun Wuji, Zhang Gongjin and others. Relatively speaking, the number is relatively small, not one-third.
"This is not right today, I guess they are going to make trouble again."
Du Yan said to Changsun Wuji.
Changsun Wuji nodded while staring at the people sitting on the left, "I guess they want to object."
"How do they object? Compete with us for the two mines that will be discovered first?"
Gao Shilian's hair and beard were all white and old. He had retired early and enjoyed his old age, but his nephew Wuji insisted on pulling them and other old bones in the center.
Although he was old, his experience became more and more abundant. You could tell at a glance that today's situation was probably not going to happen.
"His Majesty the Emperor is here!"
An eunuch came in and shouted loudly.
Emperor Chengqian came in wearing a bright yellow dragon robe, with a black haircut. In fact, this is not the most solemn dress, it is just an ordinary casual dress.
It was quite surprising that the emperor convened the Two Sessions at this time.
After all, there are cabinets for major events in the court. If there are major events, the emperor can hold a meeting of the imperial front, and now it is difficult to confuse the two sessions.
The emperor has never been particularly fond of the parliament, and his attitude is only better than the Emperor.
Taking the initiative to convene a parliamentary meeting, is it necessary to give the parliament more power and voice?
"Long live my emperor!"
All officials and two members of the council stood up and shouted to the Emperor.
Li Chengqian walked to the stage, faced the court, and held his hands in vain: "Your dear boys!"
"Sit down!"
Cheng Qian sat down and glanced over the hall.
More than 700 members of parliament, hundreds of officials, and more than 1,000 people sat in the hall, gathering together.
wrong.
Something is not right.
After careful look, Cheng Qian also found that the seats of the members of the parliament and the seats of all officials today were incorrect.
Separate left and right, clearly separated.
On the left is the New Party and on the right is the Royalist Party.
What does this mean?
The eunuch eunuch Wang Chengen stepped forward and read loudly about the discovery of the imperial court's super-large silver and copper mine in Japan. He also announced the emperor's plan to develop it. Japan officially adopted it as a direct-government road in the Tang Dynasty, known as the Fusang Road. As the direct-government road in the court, all minerals belong to the court.
These two mines are now discovered by the Royals, so the Royals owned.
The emperor is now preparing to sell 40% of the mineral share, which will be subscribed by the members of the parliament and then jointly developed.
·······
This is the first time that many officials and lawmakers have heard of this incident and are amazed at such a huge mine reserve.
Every man is innocent and has a sin.
With such a large silver and copper mine, the imperial court would have been terrified of not fighting against the Japanese.
What's more, their offending and rude behavior this time gave the Tang Dynasty a reason to send troops.
Everyone was very enthusiastic about the emperor's willingness to give away 40% of the shares to subscribe for everyone. Such a large mineral can guarantee at least two or three hundred years of continuous development, and subscribing to shares can become a stable input for the family for hundreds of years.
"Now, this proposal is left to the resolution of the two sessions!"
For the first time, Chengqian gave such an important matter to the two members of the Congress to make a resolution, rather than just for deliberation by the Academy of Sciences. Chengqian believes that the senators of the six departments of the Academy of Sciences have long been attracted by the Zhang Party, and they are Zhang Party members.
If the Academy of Sciences reviews, the result will definitely be more beneficial to the Zhang Dang.
He asked all the representatives of the Two Sessions to review, not only the Academy of Sciences to review, but more than 700 representatives, each with one vote.
In the hall, everyone whispered to each other and was very excited.
Ma Zhou and Qin Qiong exchanged their eyes.
Xu Jingzong stood up.
"My Hanlin scholar Xu Jingzong has a memorial!"
Cheng Qian frowned.
But in this occasion, he couldn't help but speak.
"Please speak with Aiqing Xu."
"I have some doubts about what I have read before. First, I ask Your Majesty, there is real evidence for the discovery of the super-large silver and copper minerals in Japan. Who discovered it, where it was discovered, and the specific reserves were so clear, and how did it measure it?"
Wang Cheng'en stepped forward and answered for the emperor.
"Scholar Xu, it is actually a coincidence that when he was imprisoned, there was a joint exploration team in the Shaofu Temple in the Palace and Taifu Temple, which were able to explore minerals everywhere. Last time Gao Biaoren went to Japan, they also traveled to Japan with them. Then they heard about some Japanese minerals, and then went to the site to explore, and finally confirmed that these two major minerals were discovered!"
There were originally six provinces in the Tang Dynasty. In addition to the three major provinces of the Secretariat, there were three introspectives. The Secretariat managed books and classics, the Eunuchs were the eunuchs in the internal affairs, and the Palace was responsible for the royal palace and other life affairs.
Shaofujian is an institution in charge of handicraft manufacturing in the royal family, and Taifu Temple holds the collection of money, grain, gold and silk.
Wang Chengen said that these institutions jointly discovered large mines in Japan, and they sounded similar.
"Ephesian Wang, this is not true. As far as I know, the two major mines discovered this time were explored by the East China Sea United Minerals. I have detailed evidence to fully prove that these two mines were discovered by them, and the reserves and so on were all conclusions made by them. Can I come up with these evidence, may I ask, can Eunuch Wang come up with the same evidence?"
Wang Chengen started to argue.
Anyway, as long as he insists, the lawsuit will not be able to come to an end.
"Bachelor Xu, maybe this is just a coincidence. The Royal Detective Team and this joint mineral were discovered at the same time."
Xu Jingzong haha.
"Okay, since it is said to be a coincidence, I won't argue about this matter for the time being. Even if it was discovered by Shaofu Supervisor, the Palace and Taifu Temple together, the mine should belong to the court, not the palace."
Xu Jingzong came forward without hesitation to compete with the emperor for mines. In the hall, the Shaofu, the Taifu, and the only palace province is the royal palace institution, and this is also a court institution, not to mention that the Shaofu and the Taifu are both yamen affiliated to the cabinet.
Shouldn’t the minerals they discovered belong to the court? How can they belong to the emperor?
Xu Jingzong took the opportunity to propose his new plan, and the minerals belonged to the court, and the court would transfer the minerals to contract them, form a mineral business, recruit shareholders, subscribe to shares, and jointly mine and operate.
The court received contract fees and mineral taxation, and did not need to manage it personally. The minerals were handed over to professional mineral companies to operate and mine.
All members of parliament and officials are eligible to subscribe to shares and join the mining company.
Xu Jingzong came prepared and had already come up with a more detailed plan than the court.
There are even detailed data on the development of the two mines, how many shares are recruited in the early stage, how much start-up capital is needed, how many craftsmen are recruited, and how much can be mined every year, how much expected profits, how much return rate is, etc., which are calculated very clearly.
In Xu Jingzong's plan, it was actually very direct to the officials and lawmakers here that everyone has the qualifications to subscribe and can be shareholders.
Compared to the emperor's plan, no one takes 60% first, and there is no need to buy 40% of the shares before sharing the operating costs.
Two plans are judged immediately!
Of course, this plan proposed by Xu Jingzong can get more shares and more profits.
"I would like to ask the deputies of the parliament to consider this plan!"
To be continued...
