Chapter 1884 On the Importance of Acting

After spending a few days leisurely in the manor, Han Yi and his family returned to the city. Now their family really doesn’t have much time to go on vacation. Fortunately, they had been having fun for several years before. This was actually in Han Yi’s plan, and those years were used to play and relax.

During the holidays of Han Yi, the father and son-in-law of Li Yifu were already executed in Xishi. The atmosphere was like the New Year. Anyway, the people did not spend this year's New Year, which was equivalent to making up for the holidays. It can be seen that Li Yifu's life and death affects all aspects and is a great villain. And Wu Meiniang's confidants like Yuan Gongyu were also further punished, and Yuan Gongyu was directly demoted to Hainan, and was destined to be unable to come back. All this was to suppress Wu Meiniang and prevent her from turning over.

The ministers also calmed down because judging from Li Zhi's actions, they were still standing on their side.

Therefore, after Han Yi came back, he began to promote his currency plan in the court. Because Li Zhi nodded, he still had to follow the process, and he had to be drafted by the Secretary of the Central Committee and reviewed by the Provincial Government, and the Minister of the Shangshu could implement it.

However, Han Yi's plan aroused strong opposition from Zheng Shanxing, Di Renjie, Changsun Yan and others during the Shujiao Conference. They were all afraid that once this precedent was set, there would be endless troubles. This was to leave trouble for future generations.

In the past twenty years, Guangshu had three or four batches of ministers, fully explaining what it means to be a lord and a tiger. They can't even guarantee their own power, and they can guarantee what they can. And only Han Yi can implement this monetary policy. So if Han Yi doesn't do this, then the people who come later don't have the ability and foundation to do this. But if Han Yi wants to do this, if you step down, the consequences will be very terrifying.

But Han Yi must have to implement this plan. This is his plan that he has been planning for a long time. He has forgotten Li Zhi. It is not a whim or a stroke of magic. Therefore, he desperately deceived Zheng Shanxing and others and told them that if he did this, the currency crisis would break out soon, and he should not wait until later, because now the currency can no longer satisfy the productivity of the people. The productivity of the Tang Dynasty is very terrifying and has a qualitative leap. But if there is no medium in the middle, who will the things produced by the merchants be sold to?

In the end, everyone took a step back and decided to regard this plan as a transaction, not as a policy, and it cannot be regarded as a long-term policy. It must be dominated by the Jinxing and Yuanxing, rather than the imperial court.

This group of new key ministers were mostly considering limiting the power of the court, not to strengthen the power of the court. This was also the lesson left by that crisis. Li Yifu and others had to control everything, and no one restricted them, and it turned out like this. Everyone was learning from their mistakes, so they believed that no matter any policy, there must be a limit. Once a problem arises, they could stop immediately.

After confirmation, Han Yi went to negotiate with the merchant again. If the merchant did not admit it, the voucher would have no meaning. Nowadays, merchants are so hungry about money that Han Yi did not say that they would accept it, but told them two plans. The first plan was to issue one million guan of currency, and the second plan was to issue more than three million guan of currency in total, but half of them were issued in the form of vouchers.

Many people hate Han Yi’s multiple-choice questions very much, especially businessmen. Han Yi’s multiple-choice questions can really torture people to death.

Although one million guan is already a lot, it cannot meet everyone's current needs. If it has been issued in recent years, it is still the same. But the problem is that it has not been issued in recent years. Moreover, many people have minted currency into copper mirrors to exchange for grain. The more they use, the less money they use, especially since Jiangnan has developed, it is no longer a raw material market. The currency gap is very large. Three million guan is almost enough to meet their needs. In fact, they can accept it if there is a little more.

As long as there is sufficient currency, theirs can develop immediately, because currency can closely link productivity and market, so these merchants did not hesitate for long. They only asked one thing to say that they had to see copper first. They could not say that as much copper as you had, there would be as much copper as you had. We believe in you, but we do not believe in the court, that is, this transaction must be transparent and everything must be announced.

Han Yi happily agreed that he had saved copper for several years, and he could still take out any amount of copper. Moreover, these coppers were to increase the creditworthiness of the vouchers and had no other effect. I put the copper here and then I always issued vouchers.

After dealing with these people, Han Yi officially submitted a memorial to Li Zhi.

But after this memorial was uploaded, it was like a dead end in the sea and there was no response at all.

You must know that Li Zhi had agreed before!

Han Yi and the others were also puzzled what was going on, so they went to Liangyi Hall to ask. The reply they received was that Li Zhi was a little uncomfortable and had to rest in bed and could not meet the minister for the time being.

This is really a splash of cold water from head to toe!

What about the illness again? How long has it been cured!

The ministers were almost crazy, and the emperor was unable to show up every now and then, so how could the court continue to play?

In a blink of an eye, most of the month has passed!

In today's Tang Dynasty, time is money, because the people are working hard to develop, and the court's policies must keep pace.

Those businessmen went to the municipal office every now and then to ask, why did there be no news about your monetary policy at once?

Now it's just a matter of the emperor's stamp.

But as long as the emperor does not stamp it, there is no way to do it.

......

On the evening of the day, Cui Jieren had just walked out of the Censorate when he saw a carriage parked in front of him.

Cui Jieren smiled slightly, got on the carriage, lifted the curtain, and smiled at Wang Xuan, sitting inside, saying, "Is your Secretariat very idle? He even came to pick me up."

Wang Xuandao smiled faintly, "Are you not idle in the Censorate?"

Cui Jieren smiled and bowed into the car.

After the carriage started, Wang Xuan said, "Brother Cui, this matter seems not simple!"

Cui Jieren looked out the window casually and said, "Your Majesty is going to fight with us!"

Wang Xuandao said: "It seems that Brother Cui has thought of this a long time ago."

Cui Jieren withdrew his gaze and said, "I have only gradually understood it recently. But it is not difficult to think that when His Majesty asked Empress Wu to help him review the memorial, the significance of this is not the government affairs itself, but the need for power."

Wang Xuandao nodded and said, "With Your Majesty, the prince's physical condition, if the royal family's control over the court will gradually weaken. Your Majesty is facing whether to hand over the power to the prime minister or the queen."

Cui Jie said: "Last time Zhang Shangshu and his mentored, pressuring His Majesty to execute Li Yi Mansion and to rehabilitate Changsun Wuji, which in turn prompted His Majesty to choose the queen, because Zhang Shangshu and his men did that, in fact, interfered with His Majesty's family affairs, just like the deposed Wang Liwu at the time. His Majesty could not let this happen again. Although many ministers did not understand that His Majesty made the Queen again, they ignored one thing. Although the Queen made a big mistake at the time, the Queen did it just to deal with Han Yi, not to deal with His Majesty, and not to mess up the country. This is particularly important."

"I didn't expect that we would help the queen." Wang Xuandao sighed softly and said, "We used the overall situation to force Your Majesty to compromise, but now Your Majesty uses the same trick to deal with us. How should we deal with it?"

Cui Jie said: "At that time, His Majesty compromised against us for the sake of the overall situation. If we were unwilling to compromise, what would Your Majesty think? We cannot make Changsun Wuji's mistake again. However, I think Your Majesty may not necessarily hand over all the power to the Queen. Your Majesty should just hope to use the Queen to restrict us, such as the key ministers, and we still have room for negotiation."

Wang Xuandao smiled and said, "I don't know how Brother Cui plans to bargain with His Majesty."

......

Li Zhi lies for almost a month before summoning the Minister of the Shuji in Liangyi Hall.

"Your Majesty, are you in good health?"

Zhang Wenguan looked worried.

"Thank you for your concern. This is an old problem. I am afraid it won't be cured." Li Zhi sighed, "I am really ashamed of the late emperor, I am ashamed of all the people of the world! You are all working hard for me and the Tang Dynasty, and devoted your efforts. But my body is not good at doing well, delaying this major national affairs. I... cough cough cough!"

"His Majesty."

"Ahem...I'm fine...ahhh."

Li Zhi was coughing and shaking his hands.

Zhang Desheng, who was beside him, quickly stepped forward and patted his back gently.

When the ministers saw Li Zhi so weak, their faces were full of worries and no complaints were left.

Han Yi said: "Your Majesty, your body is the top priority of the country, and you can do this in the future."

Li Zhi smiled bitterly and said, "If it is true as my beloved, that would be great, but the people in the world are looking forward to it, and the people can't wait! I'm going to let you all beloved, I had the idea of ​​passing the throne to the crown prince when I asked the crown prince to be regent, and I had the idea of ​​passing the throne to the crown prince. I don't want to implicate the people in the world because of my health."

As soon as these words were said, the ministers were shocked. Your thought was not an ordinary thought!

He heard Li Zhi say again, "I never thought of the prince...ah, I am really..." After speaking, he shook his head and sighed, choking without saying a word.

Zhang Wenguan and Liu Xiangdao, these old ministers, quickly spoke out to comfort them.

Everyone can feel Li Zhi's helplessness, and he doesn't want to do this. The problem is that his body is so weak, and he should be in high spirits now, so anyone will feel very depressed.

In terms of acting skills, I'm so sorry for you. Han Yi was really admired by Li Zhi's expression and movements.

After a while, Li Zhi recovered and restrained a little, saying, "Let's talk about the serious matter first. I have no objection to the issuance of currency, and I have full authority to hand over this matter to the Secretary of the State. In addition, I have difficulty in reviewing memorials every day in my health. In order not to delay the implementation of the new policy, I plan to let the Secretary of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the State of the

As soon as these words were said, the ministers were all stunned.

This is something no one expected.

"No!"

Han Yi rushed up as if his butt was on fire, and shouted with joy: "Your Majesty, please take back Cheng's orders. I can't even do the Shangshu Ling well, let alone the regent. This minister is determined not to agree."

Li Zhi frowned and said, "Now my health is difficult to manage government affairs. I hope my dear can share some of the burden for me. Isn't that okay?"

Han Yi said: "It is my duty to share your worries for Your Majesty. I am willing to devote myself to Your Majesty until I die. But I really don't have the ability. If I let me be regent, there will definitely be chaos. Moreover, I am not qualified enough. Otherwise, let Mr. Liu, Mr. Zhang and others be regent?"

Liu Xiang said, Zhang Wenguan was instantly frightened.

"I can't do it!"

They have been working for so many years, and now they have only become the six ministers. The prestige has just been established. This suddenly makes them regent. Wouldn't they be killed? And they don't have this foundation, because the new policy is dominated by Han Yi, and the people trust Han Yi. If they are regent, they don't know how to operate it. Should they listen to Han Yi or theirs?

Li Zhi frowned and waved, "Don't say anything, I have decided, so let the Secretary of State order the regent."

"His Majesty!"

Han Yi lay directly on the ground and said, "Your Majesty, it's really difficult for me to be competent. If Your Majesty must let me regent, then I would rather go to jail than be a criminal minister in my Tang Dynasty."

Li Zhi was displeased, slapped the table, pointed at Han Yi and said, "I asked you to be regent. If you make a mistake, I will bear it. This is OK."

What a fool! md. If I just came out and had to agree, then I would be very far from death! Han Yi was like crazy and shouted: "Then at that time, not only will the minister who harmed the country, but also implicated the monarch. I will be responsible for the death of the minister!"

"You...ah ah ah!"

Li Zhi coughed in anger.

Zhang Desheng said with a heartache: "Shangshu Ling, Your Majesty is not in good health, you are still angry with Your Majesty."

If you have the ability, don’t be sick. You can just crumble! Han Yi said firmly: “I will agree to other things, but I cannot agree to this matter.”

Cui Jieren felt his cheeks burn when he saw this pair of kings and ministers. He was now open and bright. He knew that these two people were actually smarter than anyone else. They were all the masters who ate people and didn’t vomit bones. He really couldn’t stand it anymore, so he said, “Your Majesty, I have a plan that may help Your Majesty share some pressure.”

Li Zhi was addicted to the rivalry with Han Yi. The supporting role suddenly ran out and couldn't help but be stunned. Then he said, "Your dear, please tell me."
