I thank you.

These words sounded like irony, and no one dared to say anything in response.

In the past, ministers did most of the talking in court discussions, but now it is the emperor who speaks.

Is this blocking the path of remonstrance?

Not really!

It's because the court meeting is no longer a place for discussion and decision-making...

Next, Guan Ning no longer spoke as coldly as he did at the beginning. He was all about accountability and no show of kindness, and the atmosphere became much more relaxed.

What he said was true.

In the past five years, he has spent most of his time fighting abroad, and there has been no major chaos in the imperial court. This is already not easy.

This shows that the current institutional reforms can withstand the test.

The establishment of local government officials has also gradually improved. Taking counties as an example, there are only county magistrates and county magistrates, as well as chief registrars and other assistant officials.

The county magistrate is the most powerful and is called the county magistrate.

Later, there were six offices corresponding to the six departments of the imperial court. Among these six offices, the doctors were also high-ranking officials, each performing his own duties and doing his own thing.

It's just that some counties are too small, have a small population, and have few affairs. Some officials hold multiple positions, but they are more specific than before.

There are layers of control, one level higher than the other, and finally it reaches the six ministries and then the cabinet.

This strict system can ensure that centralized power is not dispersed.

The emperor only needs to control the cabinet.

The power of cabinet ministers seems to be very great, but in fact it is also dispersed. Everyone has their own powers and division of labor, and even the chief minister of the cabinet cannot really hold great power.

Under him are the assistant ministers and other cabinet ministers.

In fact, many people don't know that when Guan Ning left Beijing, the real person in charge was not the cabinet, but Empress Daning Yongning.

It was her temporary replacement of Guan Ning's identity that ensured that there would be no trouble during this period...

If all power is really given to the cabinet, what does the emperor do?

Guan Ning is a modern person, but if you travel to ancient times, you have to have the mentality of "doing as the Romans do."

He likes ancient times.

Otherwise, how could there be so many concubines?

The emperor must stick to his word and be the only one who respects himself.

Anyone who dares to touch this bottom line will die.

Guan Ning softened his words and began to give praise. Some people wanted to be punished, but not now.

When the examination law is implemented, these people will naturally not be able to escape.

I, an emperor, am fighting outside and narrowly escaping death. You still want to enjoy it comfortably?

Two words for you.

dream!

The atmosphere began to relax, and Guan Ning also began to praise.

I have to say that some places do really well, and most people are pretty good...

Such a victory is the result of joint efforts.

The officials and the people are of one mind and work together.

Guan Ning emphasized these eight words, and the courtiers became active.

This court meeting does not require any advice, it is considered a meeting.

Although he has been away from Beijing for a long time, he is still in charge of all situations.

What do secret guards do for food?

Wang Lun fulfilled his duties and was secretly summoned when Guan Ning returned to Beijing. He had already reported to him in detail. It took Guan Ning a long time to read all the secret reports.

Not only those who go to the capital, but also those who go to local places.

In addition to the secret guards, the Jin Yiwei also presented him with many secret messages.

Guan Ning understands all of this quite well.

In addition to appreciation, I also look forward to the future.

If you all work hard, you will have a bright future. This is not just a cakewalk.

What is the meaning of war?

It's to achieve results.

The consumption of the war needs to be replenished, and Daning will get a large area of ​​land.

Land and population are the greatest resources, and a large number of people with lofty ideals are also needed.

As Daning's territory expands, more officials will be needed.

The summary is just one sentence, if you work hard, you can't do anything wrong.

This is said directly.

Now Wei Jun and Liang Emperor are all in Beijing. Although the court meeting has not been made explicit yet, everyone knows about it.

Your Majesty has made it very clear.

It seemed that the two emperors' plan to seek peace was in vain.

At the end, Guan Ning said it directly.

"I know that Emperor Jianwu and Emperor Daliang of Wei State came to Shangjing."

"Please ask Master Shusong, Minister of Rites, to go to the post house where Emperor Liang lives. I will not see him. Daning does not welcome enemies. Please leave Shangjing within three days. If he does not leave, he will be expelled directly. If he does not leave, don't do it."

Gone."

"Also, take all the envoys from Liang State and leave!"

Guan Ning said bluntly in a cold voice.

Let everyone be extremely surprised!

Emperor Liang traveled thousands of miles to seek peace, but His Majesty refused to accept it.

This means that the Daning army will not withdraw and will continue to fight!

Saying such words at a court meeting and in front of all civil and military officials is also His Majesty's final attitude...

No wonder His Majesty said before that the war is not over yet. That is what he meant.

Guan Ning continued: "Liang Guo has launched many attacks on Daning, with a huge force and a strong intention to exterminate Daning. The Liang Guo decides when the war starts, but I have the final say when it ends.

!”

"If we win, we want to carve up Daning. If we lose, we come to sue for peace. It's really ridiculous. I won't accept Liang's peace proposal. I won't agree to any conditions the other side offers. I'll tell Emperor Liang to leave in a dignified manner."

"

These remarks were extremely domineering.

"Long live my emperor! Long live!"

The Minister of Rites, Matsunaga Nian, knelt down and shouted.

This is what he has always advocated. The soldiers shed blood and sacrificed on the front line, and finally won the victory, but the victory was hastily because the enemy country sued for peace.

This isn't fair!

Matsunaga's words moved the audience.

This old man is really good, but he is already old.

Guan Ning sighed inwardly, and then spoke again: "I know that the envoys of the Liang Kingdom have been in Beijing for a long time, and they are very close to my officials. I also know that some people even accepted bribes to speak for them. I make it clear here.
Chapter completed!
