Mohist Tang

Chapter 426

As a qualified emperor, he is good at using checks and balances until it is the top priority. From ancient times to the present, most of the emperors used the three-legged strategy to check and balance the officials.

From the Three Gongs and Nine Qings in the Qin and Han Dynasties to the Three Provinces and Six Departments of Great Tang, they are all multiples of three.

Not to mention the six ministries, the three provinces are in the true sense of the tripod. The three provinces contain each other and supervise each other. In this way, the emperor has reduced the workload and will not have to worry about the risk of his ministers evading power. .

“putting it that way, Mo Dun is imitating the three males and nine princes of the previous dynasty, but it is a pity that Handan is learning to walk, and the four are not like it!” Li Tai also suddenly came to a sudden.

The round table meeting advocated by Mo Dun fits the number and system of the three public and nine officials. People obviously think that Mo Dun used this to transform Mohist Village.

“Hundred Schools of Thought, these pre-Qin schools, all respect ancient etiquette and are stubborn!” Li Tai felt coldly snorted and said.

History has proved that the Three Gongs and the Nine Qings are no longer in line with the requirements of the times. The three provinces and six ministries are the most outstanding political system that has been summed up by the crystallization of Chinas thousand-year wisdom. In Li Tais view, Mo Duns move is It is the biggest failure.

Li Shimin nodded, if ordinary persons imitate the political system Imperial Court, they would definitely be jealous, but for the Hundred Schools of Thought, it would be strange if they did not advocate a system.

If Mo Dun adopts a system that imitates the three provinces and six departments, it will definitely leave a knot in his heart, and Mo Dun adopts the three males and nine princes of the Qin and Han dynasties, then not at all. Did you know that Confucius still advocates the restoration of the Zhou ceremony?

Li Chengqian shook his head and said: “Although the three males and nine qings are outdated, Mo Dun did not completely copy it, but made major changes. As for the effect, it is difficult to say.”

The three men are the prime minister, the Imperial Censor Doctor and the Taiwei. In Mohist Village, in addition to Li Yi, the Imperial Censor Doctor has changed from one person to all villagers. The Taiwei was originally in charge of the army, but Mo Dun let Replaced by Han Zheng of School of Legalism.

Although Li Chengqian is not optimistic about the San Gong Jiu Qing system, he is full of confidence in Mo Dun. Moreover, Mo Cun has made such changes. He always feels that he has other meanings, but he can’t tell why.

“Furthermore, Mohist Village is just a slightly larger village. Even if it is copied and outdated, I am afraid it can be managed!” Li Chengqian said with a bitter smile.

Li Shimin showed a meaningful smile and said: “putting it that way, Gaoming also thinks that Mo Dun can manage Mohist Village well.”

Li Chengqian solemnly nodded, He believed in this.

“Where is Qingque?” Li Shimin turned his head to ask, Li Tai on the side.

Li Tai smiled bitterly, nodded and said: “Back to the Father Emperor, San Gong Jiu Qing was used for hundreds of years in the Qin and Han Dynasties. It can be seen that it has its advantages, and it is more than enough to manage a Mohist Village.”

In his opinion, Mo Duns move was nothing but a sledgehammer. No, it was simply taking an army to slaughter chickens and manage a village. Mo Dun even imitated the system of three publics and nine officials. .

“putting it that way, do you all think that Mohist Village will get better and better for a long time in the future?” Li Shimin asked again.

Li Tai and Li Chengqian were taken aback for a moment and suddenly realized that, in their view, it is not important for Mohist Village to be outdated, as long as they can make Mohist Village better.

At the same time, they realized a new problem. Now that Mohist Village has made so many contributions to the Imperial Court and paid so many taxes, how much will the future Mohist Village grow to.

The two looked at each other, and suddenly showed amazement.

Li Shimin solemnly said: “The system is not outdated, but to see if it is appropriate. Even an outdated system can perform incredible functions as long as it is used appropriately.”

Li Shimin was not a person who stuck to the form. In the Han Dynasty, the system of enforcing the country had already harmed infinitely. However, Li Shimin still let his concubines be assigned to various places in Great Tang as officials, if not later Numerous officials objected, and Tang Dynasty might repeat the Seven Kingdoms.

If Mo Dun was here, he would have a bitter smile. He just simplified the system of the separation of powers for later generations and used it on Mohist Village, but he did not expect to support the system of three publics and nine officials.

“Child remember!” Li Chengqian bowed and replied.

Li Shimin was satisfied and nodded. The reason why he analyzed Mo Dun’s strategy for managing Mohist Village was that in addition to letting Li Chengqian learn about checks and balances, he also wanted to teach some ways to govern the country.

But he overlooked one thing. When he taught Li Chengqian, he didn’t avoid Li Tai at all, and he didn’t notice that Li Tai’s low-hanging eyes next to him were strangely bright.

“His Imperial Majesty, this is a reward to the ministers. Please check it out by His Imperial Majesty!” At this moment, Pang De hurriedly came from outside the hall, handed over a response form, and bowed.

Li Shimin reached out and took it, satisfied and nodded. Although Great Tang was not in a good weather this year, the three natural disasters were successfully avoided. The State Treasury is full, and this year’s reward is naturally much richer.

But when he saw Wei Zheng’s reward, he couldn’t help being frowned. Pang De’s eyelids drooped. Because Wei Zheng gave the thinnest gift, relatively speaking, Wei Zheng’s reward was better than the same level. Important Ministers are inferior.

Li Shimin took a deep breath and said: “Mo Dun said yesterday that if you take water as a mirror, you can be dressed up, history is a mirror to know the rise and fall, and people are a mirror to understand gains and losses. To be a mirror, you can know what is bad. Mohist Family uses the Dharma as a mirror, and I regards people as a mirror. Wei Zheng is my mirror.”

Li Shimin didnt know that Mo Duns words were copied from him. Consciously, this sentence is too much to his heart. Mo Dun asked the School of Legalism to supervise the Mohist Family from time to time to avoid Mohist Family from going the wrong way. He often advised him to prevent him from making mistakes. It was Wei Zheng. When Li Shimin saw people as a mirror, the first thing he thought of was Wei Zheng.

“Your Majesty is a great blessing for the eternal life.” Pang De complimented.

Li Shimin immediately showed a proud expression, picked up the gift list, stretched out his hand and said: “Come on, add the gift for Mo Dun to Minister Wei.”

“Ah!” Everyone was stunned.

Pang De came back to his senses instantly and said: “Or, the old slave will prepare a gift for Lord Marquis Mo.”

Li Shimin coldly snorted, said : “Mohist Village is so rich, he will care about this little money.”

Pang De smiled bitterly at once. The rewards of the Imperial Family have always been generous. When is the money, but with Mohist Villages ability to make money, These rewards are really not in Mo Dun’s heart.

“Besides, with this youngster’s prodigal character, how much money is not enough for him to squander.” Li Shimin said bitterly.

“Does that mean His Imperial Majesty?” Pang De cautiously said.

Li Shimin gave a triumphant smile and said: “This year, I am also going to follow the example of Minister Wei and have a stingy!”

Under the expression of confusion, Li Shimin walked towards In the case slip, he wrote five large characters with his pen.

“World’s First Village!”
