Before Han Fei came, he had already organized a large number of reasons and words to persuade Chen Sheng.

But now when faced with Chen Sheng's words, 'What about me?'

But now facing Chen Sheng, who looked old and one-armed.

He really couldn't say those words of advice and words of advice no matter what.

They are friends after all.

After all, Han Fei sighed silently and said, "What are you going to do? Let me tell you first and let me go through the details..."

When Chen Sheng heard this, he knew that Han Fei had relented. Although he still did not agree to any of his requests, if he was willing to let him speak and listen to him, it was already a great progress!

Secretly, this guy has been inciting the officials to consolidate and strengthen the imperial power.

"Don't be so nervous, this matter is not as urgent as you think!"

Chen Sheng picked up the tea cup and took a sip. After calming down the atmosphere, he slowly said: "I name the national system I want to change as a constitutional monarchy."

"There is a big difference between the constitutional monarchy and our current state system, but the biggest and most critical differences are actually only two points."

"The first point is that the highest state of the rule of law envisioned by your legalists is that 'princes who break the law are guilty of the same crime as the common people'. The national constitution is supreme. Even the emperor cannot violate it. Even if it is violated by the emperor, he must pay the corresponding price!"

"You are more familiar with this than me, so I won't go into details."

"The second point is that the human emperor and the clan will only exist as a symbol of honor, just like the Tuotu king and the Kaijiang marquis, and will no longer naturally have the ownership and power to govern the country. From now on, the ownership of the country should belong to all Han Dynasties.

The family is owned jointly by the children, and the governing power is jointly handled by the consuls and ministers at all levels. Just like in recent years, everyone performs their duties and works together to handle the government affairs of the court."

"As for the consuls and ministers at all levels, they are selected by the imperial examinations of the country and the dynasty, and then it is left to all the people to decide whether they can be promoted and who will be promoted."

"For example, the last Yangzhou pastor has resigned, and the state wants to select a new Yangzhou pastor. Then the state will draft several candidates with both ability and political integrity, clearly list their merits and specialties, and call on all Yangzhou pastors to

The people voted together to decide who would eventually serve as the Yangzhou Mu. During his governance, all basic government affairs must be made public and subject to the supervision of all Yangzhou people. Once more than half of the Yangzhou people feel that the Yangzhou Mu is capable

If it is not enough and his moral character is insufficient, then he should get out of the position of state pastor."

"I can serve as consul concurrently for a while to give everyone some time to adapt... Two years should be enough, right?"

Chen Sheng thought and spoke very slowly, trying to find a balance between convincing Han Fei to agree with the constitutional monarchy and explaining the constitutional monarchy clearly.

If possible, he would of course want to achieve it in one step and directly reach the Republic.

But his experience told him: half a step ahead of the times is a genius, one step ahead of the times is a madman...

It’s not that he is arrogant. If he dares to declare that he will not be a human emperor now, from now on there will be no such thing as a human emperor in the Han Dynasty. The entire Han Dynasty will suffer a big earthquake, and at least millions of Han people will flock to Jinling.

Use all kinds of irrational behavior to "persuade" him to be careful in his words and deeds!

But even though he was very restrained, Han Fei was still surprised and happy when he heard it.

What pleased him was, of course, that Chen Sheng did not intend to abandon his son and run away directly, but still retained the existence of the Human Emperor and was willing to serve as consul for a period of time.

So, you can’t look at what a superior person says, you have to look at what he does.

For example, some people keep saying "What about me", but secretly they can't let go of the children of the Han family more than anyone else, and they can't bear to leave the children of the Han family more than anyone else.

This may be the silent love of father!

As for the "two years" thing, Han Fei went in with his left ear and came out with his right ear, so he pretended he didn't hear it!

Just as he relaxed, Chen Sheng felt that he had an opportunity.

When Chen Sheng relaxed, Han Fei also felt that he had an opportunity!

Want to run away after two years?

Not to mention the doors, the windows are all welded shut for you!

What surprised him was of course Chen Sheng's statement that "the emperor's crimes are the same as those of the common people" and that all the sons and daughters of the Han family were allowed to decide on official promotions.

former.

If he had previously said that he would be stabbed in the spine and dug up the graves of his ancestors, it was just a joke among friends.

So now, he really feels terrified!

Who is Chen Sheng?

In the eyes of all the sons and daughters of the Han Dynasty, he is a perfect man, a saint, a close relative, and a close friend. Everyone respects him and loves him. He even went so far as to massacre millions of people in the Peacock Kingdom.

Praising him, "Your Majesty's swing of the sword is so handsome"!

Putting the law above Chen Sheng’s head?

He can guarantee that if he announces this news today, it will take more than seven days for the ancestral graves of the eighteenth generation of his ancestors to be found for him by the descendants of the Han family, even if his ancestors are buried secretly!

The latter... let all the people decide the promotion of officials?

Han Fei seemed to have seen the scene where the monolithic Han people were split into countless camps, attacking and fighting each other.

It seems that we have seen the picture of officials doing one thing on the surface but another behind the scenes, manipulating public opinion, playing power, officialdom is corrupt, and people's livelihood is difficult.

He seemed to have seen the picture of a well-organized man turning into a mess, each doing his own thing...

Every picture made him feel headache and scared!

I saw his face flickering between gloomy and sunny for a long time, and finally settled on a look of deep worry: "I know that your mind has been made up, and it is difficult to persuade it, but I still want to ask you: Do you think carefully about it?"

Are you done? Are you sure you can afford this price? Are you sure the big man can afford this price?"

Chen Sheng put down the tea cup and said contemptuously: "Can you please stop looking so heroic and righteous? If you have any problems, just raise them, and we will analyze and solve them together. I am not a stubborn donkey. If it really doesn't work, will I still do it?"

Are you going to hit your head so hard that your head will bleed?"

"Well!"

After hearing this, Han Fei straightened his posture and said seriously: "Let's come one by one!"

"The first question is, if you want to thoroughly implement the rule of law, I naturally raise my hands... Anyway, I agree with you, but if you want to put the law above the human emperor, I cannot agree with it, and I dare not agree with it!"

Chen Sheng: "I know what you are worried about, but I think there is something wrong with your thinking. Why do you think putting the law on the emperor is a threat to me rather than a proof?"

"If the propaganda is to prove that I am also an outstanding Han citizen who abides by the law, will it better explain the importance of the law? I can't make an exception, so why can the future emperor make an exception? Who will allow him to make an exception?

?”

"Even if they are my children and grandchildren, I hope that they will all have the idea in their minds that 'if you break the law, you will have to bear the corresponding punishment and pay the corresponding price', instead of bullying men unscrupulously just because they have an emperor in their family.

Isn’t it right for women to act recklessly?”

After hearing this, Han Fei subconsciously looked at this simple carpentry room, and suddenly felt that what he said was indeed very reasonable!

As a human emperor, theoretically speaking, the land under the sky is not the king's land, and the land beside the land is the king's ministers!

But in fact, apart from being more cruel to foreigners in recent years, he did not have any extravagant enjoyment, and he did bad deeds relying on imperial power. He even went out of the palace to eat a bowl of noodles without forgetting to give money.

!

With such a virtue, even if the harshest judicial officials were to find fault with him, it would be difficult to find anything illegal in him...

Moreover, by promoting this matter with the propaganda slogan of "using the law to prove that His Majesty is a perfect man and a saint", the ancestral graves of the eighteenth generation of his ancestors can indeed be saved!

"Then the second question!"

Han Fei did not hesitate and continued: "Do you think it is really reasonable to leave the promotion of officials to the common people and to hand over all government affairs to the common people to supervise? Are you not afraid that the common people will eventually choose to come to power?

Are all the officials just idiots who can only use sweet words, entertain people, play power, and manipulate names? Will this further lead to the loss of the prestige of the government?"

If Han Fei was still the same Han Fei who only knew how to read and was full of ideals and ambitions, he would definitely be in awe of Chen Sheng's statement.

But after all, he has been an official for twenty years, and his understanding of officialdom, government affairs, and human nature is no longer what it used to be.

He knew how many loopholes there were that could be exploited and how much room there was for operation in the rules Chen Sheng mentioned.

So even though this rule is the result of the idealization of officialdom, he still strongly opposes it!

Chen Sheng did not hesitate: "Don't worry, of course the people they choose will have to bear the consequences themselves! And I believe that in the beginning, there may be situations where idiots wear official clothes and the prestige of the government is ruined, as you said, but the common people

After we have been deceived a few times, we will always learn to be smarter!"

After hearing this, Han Fei always felt that the brain of Chen Sheng in front of him had been damaged by the Buddha, and couldn't help but said: "Is this really necessary? You really know those idiots, sitting in the position of parents and officials, and sitting in the six major officials

Will it cause much harm to people's livelihood and the country due to its location?"

The underlying meaning is: Isn’t the current model of selecting and appointing officials by the court bad? Why go to Tao Shen to do these thankless things?

After Chen Sheng pondered for a while, he slowly said: "We may compare the dynasty to a child, and we are the parents of this child."

"When children are still very young and their understanding of the world is very limited, they really need parents to help them avoid things that may hurt them, such as touching open flames, wading in water, and touching sharp swords, etc.

wait."

"Because these things may endanger the child's life or damage the child's body. If the child is not sensible, it is the responsibility of all parents to help him avoid these bad things."

"But there are also some things that are dangerous, but parents cannot stop their children from touching them. For example, they may fall when they learn to walk, or they may choke when they learn to eat."

"Even when a child grows older, parents can no longer prohibit their children from touching open fires, deep water, and swords, which may still endanger their lives, because they cannot be under your wings.

After this life, he still has a long way to go. He must learn these survival skills so that he can be independent when he grows up and start a family..."

These words can perhaps be summed up by the phrase "no food due to choking".

However, if you use the word "can't eat because of choking" to describe it, it will inevitably fail to convey the meaning.
