Chapter 1383 Return of the King(1/2)
In the political affairs hall, the prime ministers were holding teacups or brushes, but they were all looking at Chen An.
Someone outside stopped others from approaching.
"...Don't think of the people as heroes. Most of the people have no ambitions. They only want two words to be safe."
"Some people say they are looking up at the sky. Yes, they are indeed like hungry children, waiting for the nobles in the court to save them. But before saving, you have to let them know that the days will only get better and better after that, otherwise... the power gathered by the people will shock Bianliang."
Since the founding of the Song Dynasty, the rebellion in the territory has never stopped, but at least the number of people is still small, and more like a joke.
"...Because the people can still fill their stomachs, at least they can't starve to death."
Later on during the rebellion of Zhao Ji, the situation in the Song Dynasty gradually deteriorated, and the scale of rebellion became larger and larger.
"When the people feel desperate, they will carry kitchen knives, wooden sticks, and even use their teeth and nails to bite it, tearing a hole in the Song Dynasty, which makes them desperate, and a hole in the way that can fill their stomachs!"
Han Qi asked: "Will the people feel desperate if they abolish the iron coins?"
"What do you think?"
Chen An remembered those people from the bottom of his previous life.
They have lived their own lives for decades, saving some of their savings, and then happily thought that after saving enough money, they would ask their son to take a wife or prepare some dowry for their daughter...
But one day, the message from above said that we won’t use banknotes in the future, what will we use... electronic coins, what will happen?
And it happened in a relatively remote place.
What will be the consequences?
Your banknotes are no longer available, so hurry up and exchange them for electronic coins.
Those people don’t even know what electronic coins are. Have you considered the consequences if you do this?
Han Qi put down the teacup and thought carefully.
"Will the people think that this is taking their money?" Han Qi thought of this possibility.
"right."
At this time, the people are still ignorant. It is their instinct to guard the wealth they currently have. Whoever wants to shake their wealth will fight you.
And what the hell is paper money?
The other side of Yizhou Road is far away from Bianliang, and the road is difficult, and paper money is only circulating sporadically.
Under such circumstances, Yang Jingan actually dared to make suggestions to abolish iron coins. What is this?
He wants to use this as a political achievement to be promoted!
He wants to eat human blood steamed buns!
Chen An narrowed his eyes. He kept watching, but he did not dare to watch for too long. He was worried that once the government order reached Yizhou Road, it would cause chaos.
Those who are promoted will still be promoted, while those who are unlucky will still be unlucky.
It shouldn't be the people's fault.
So he came.
Bao Zheng suddenly asked: "What do you mean is that the new policy is implemented in the local area. We must be wary of local officials, and we must be wary of using the new policy to benefit themselves?"
Chen An looked at him, and a sense of joy surged.
yes!
This is what he is afraid of.
This is the failure of Lao Wang’s new policy.
He could not control the subordinates, nor could he supervise the subordinates. If the new policy policy was left, God knew what local officials would do with this.
"The ethics of local officials cannot be overestimated."
Chen An mentioned this many times, but obviously the prime ministers think there are still many gentlemen these days.
Lao Wang's fight, we can't be tripped anymore.
Bao Zheng was able to detect this, so why didn’t he be happy?
Han Qi lowered his head, and his huge body looked like a mountain of meat.
"If this matter is indeed as you said, the supervision of the new policy will probably become the top priority."
He looked up at Chen An and asked, "You suggested that each prefecture in the Song Dynasty would be assigned two censors, and they would not belong to the local government and be directly governed by Bianliang. They would change local positions every two years. You have never trusted local officials, right?"
Chen An nodded, "Human ethics...how can we say that we cannot place the new policy on the so-called gentlemen, nor on the so-called ethics. How many people can be unmoved by ten thousand gentlemen when facing the temptation of power and money?"
Han Qi narrowed his eyes, "It's hard to say."
All of us are old officials in the officialdom, so we naturally have an extraordinary understanding of human nature.
"The only thing that the court can do is supervision." Chen An's eyes flashed with fierce expressions, "There is also severe punishment. When it is time to kill people, don't say anything about exile, let alone putting it in a local official to punish it. That is not a punishment, it is a vacation! Such an easy punishment will only shame the law! It will only inspire future generations to dare to violate the law!"
Han Qi closed his eyes, "This matter is just a guess between Wang Anshi and you."
"Then let's wait and see."
Chen An bowed his hand and said goodbye.
As soon as he left, Han Qi slapped the table and ordered: "Go quickly and send someone to Yizhou Road to see what's going on!"
His expression was ferocious, and the officials who came in were so scared that they rolled out and rushed out.
"Hurry, prepare the horse!"
Zeng Gongliang was silent for a long time, "Do we really know what the people are thinking?"
Bao Zheng shook his head, "I don't know, I just thought I knew."
"It's a taboo to be an official!"
Zeng Gongliang patted his thighs. If this matter was true as Wang Anshi and Shen An said, the local officials' ethics would probably be questionable.
"Why didn't Chen An come early?"
Ouyang Xiu’s questions make people think.
Bao Zheng explained: "There is something in his family."
"You can hold the child even if you have something to do!"
Ouyang Xiu sneered: "He is watching the fun! Watch our fun! If Yang Jingan is just as Wang Anshi said to him, Wang Anshi will be a great achievement, and he is Shen An watching our lively mixed ball beside him!"
Han Qi waved his hand, "Everything is unknown at the moment, let's wait for the news."
Everyone was silent.
There are many things about the prime minister, and they are all major things, so they need to be highly focused.
After a busy day, Han Qi looked at him with high energy, but Ouyang Xiu was a little tired, rubbed his eyes and said that he had to drink some wine when he went home.
They slowly walked out of the Political Affairs Hall, and Han Qi stretched and felt extremely comfortable.
A sound of footsteps came, followed by Zeng Gongliang's voice.
"It's all over the government office, why do you have any memorials in?"
"Zeng Xiang, my grandfathers, this is a memorial on Yizhou Road, which says "100,000 urgent!"
Han Qi's body stiffened and he immediately felt a slight pain under his ribs, like a scattered breath.
"oops!"
He shouted, lowered his head and reached out, "Take me and take a look."
Everyone knows his domineeringness, so the messenger handed him the memorial.
Han Qi carefully checked the seal and opened it...
He slowly looked at the memorial, and his body was gradually trembling.
"Han Xiang? Is this a smoke?"
It is best not to be scared when people are stretching, otherwise they will easily cause distraction.
Han Qi slowly raised his head, and the anger in his eyes could almost burn the void.
He said word by word: "Li Zhonghe, the criminal prison of Yizhou Road, and the following five officials jointly impeached the Transportation Envoy Yang Jing'an, and impeached him to abolish Jiaozi and Tieqian without the consent of the court, which led to chaos in the people."
Zeng Gongliang's body shook for a moment, his face pale, "The traffic on Yizhou Road is inconvenient. If there is chaos and it cannot be controlled for a while, what should I do?"
Bao Zheng said in a deep voice: "What's the matter? Li Zhong and they impeached Yang Jing'an, which means they disagree with the matter. The two sides were in a stalemate, and the so-called civil chaos... asked the Imperial City Department."
Han Qi turned around and left, Zeng Gongliang sighed: "Sure enough, Wang Anshi has a foresight, Chen An can see through it at a glance... Just we are so ignorant, extremely embarrassed, extremely embarrassed!"
Everyone asked to meet him together. Zhao Shu didn't know what happened. When he met, he saw that the prime ministers were all calm and angry, and he smiled and said, "Where is the chaos?"
Now the Song Dynasty is safe and he is very comfortable.
Han Qi said: "Your Majesty, just after receiving a memorial from Yizhou Road, the minister boldly dismantled it. Yizhou Road Li Zhonghe and the following five officials impeached the Transportation Envoy Yang Jian'an, and impeached him to abolish Jiaozi and Tieqian without the consent of the court, which led to chaos in the people."
"Wang Anshi!"
Zhao Shu instantly thought of Wang Anshi's determination to return the lyrics.
