The news that Li Zhongyi personally carried the coffin for his old subordinates was like a wind with wings, and in the blink of an eye, it spread throughout Kaifeng City.

The magnates of the city, as well as the common people, have everything to say. Some people gave a thumbs up and praised Li Zhongyiguo as the lord of benevolence and righteousness; Some people secretly cursed Li Zhongyi, who was so good at inviting people to buy people's hearts, and was a great traitor.

However, no matter how the outside world circulates Li Zhongyi's anecdote, in the Li family's army, Li Zhongyi's prestige is obviously much higher than before.

There are all kinds of power in the world, and the power of the army is the most important!

As long as the centripetal force of the army is bursting, no matter what kind of changes the situation outside, Li Zhongyi doesn't care!

Since becoming the ruling king, although Li Zhongyi is very willing to delegate power, he has also streamlined a lot of powers to the cabinet, the six ministries and the nine secretaries. However, in the vast Central Plains, everything is complicated, and Li Zhongyi's time to deal with official documents is getting longer and longer.

Li Cuixuan, Han Xianglan and Ye Xiaolan, after all, are women, they help write abridges in the inner room and assume the duties of secretaries, but they have actually caused a storm in the city for a long time.

Many Wenchen's words are very difficult to hear, and if this continues, there will be a second Wu Zetian and other warnings, which have already made Li Zhongyi's ears calloused.

Li Zhongyi knew very well in his heart that since he ascended the throne of the ruling king, the Hanlin Academy has changed from a place of nobility in the past to a place where no one cares about drinking tea and chatting.

This person, once his interests are damaged, he will definitely be dissatisfied. The rumors outside are basically secretly propagated by the families of these ministers.

As the saying goes, it's easy to fight the country, but it's hard to sit on the country!

This difficulty lies in how to balance the forces of all parties, so that the gap between the pies is not too big, which is completely unacceptable!

Without a full-time minister to assist in handling government affairs, it is obviously impossible. As a result, Li Zhongyi let out the wind and selected ten ministers from the Hanlin Academy to serve as personal literary attendants.

The way of civil and military affairs lies in balance, and if one side is wasted, it can only greatly mislead the country!

For the Wenchen Group, Li Zhongyi could not be beaten to death with a stick. After all, not all civil servants will betray the country to seek glory.

As a mature politician, Li Zhongyi can have today's achievements, and he is naturally extremely skilled in the way of controlling the magic power and balance.

In layman's terms, that is, the courtiers cannot be forced into a monolith, and all kinds of means of mixing sand, beating sticks and digging corners are indispensable!

It is necessary to reach a compromise with the Wenchen bureaucracy to a certain extent. However, this does not mean that Li Zhongyi has trusted the ministers from now on.

Power must be checked and balanced, and it must not be biased in favor of one side or the other.

According to Li Zhongyi's conception, the cabinet is a mess, the attendants are a mess, and the chamberlain is actually his women.

In this era, the smooth change of imperial power is actually the top priority.

As the saying goes, people have good fortune and misfortune, and the moon is cloudy and sunny, and Li Zhongyi does not dare to guarantee that he will be able to live to ninety-nine smoothly.

Once something big happened to Li Zhongyi, which of his sons would justifiably inherit the entire country would become the key to determining the peaceful transfer of power.

Today, the eldest of Li Zhongyi's sons is only eight years old. If he falls, he is obviously the same as the master of the Zhou room, Shaoguo.

The sons are still young, and the political training of the future queen mother is very important.

The logic of investment risk cannot put all the eggs in the same basket, which is also the basic principle of a smooth regime change.

Therefore, Li Zhongyi plans to expand the team of female secretaries in the inner court, which is inextricably linked to the upcoming draft.

Before the draft, it was also a year ago, Li Zhongyi still had a big thing to do: officially marrying Li Qiniang and entering the door!

In fact, since Li Qiniang eloped into Li Zhongyi's arms more than two years ago, the entire Huayang County Royal Mansion has accelerated preparations for the purchase of dowry.

In this era of wealthy families, the daughter of the heir has just landed, and the family has to gather various items such as wood, clothing, jewelry, and makeup to prepare for the marriage.

The more well-established the family, the longer the preparation time for the objects to accompany the daughter. Only the nouveau riche who suddenly became rich, although their family background is thick, but the time is too short, and there is no long-term sustainable accumulation, will take copper coins and silk silk and other things to make up the number.

When Li Qiniang fell to the ground, Li Qiong was already the real power of the party, with a high position and military power, and there were countless people who were scavenged by him, and his family background can be described as unusually rich.

The granddaughter of the county king's mansion is about to officially marry the lord of the Central Plains, what a big deal this is, how dare Li Qiong and Li Hu ignore it?

After Li Zhongyi ascended the throne, it was the first time to accept a concubine, and even if the cabinet wanted to pretend that it didn't know, it was completely impossible.

During this period of time, the cabinet has frequently convened officials from the Ministry of Rites, Taichang Temple, and Hanlin Academy, and has held more than a dozen small meetings.

In the end, a final report was formed and officially submitted to Li Zhongyi.

After reading the report, Li Zhongyi couldn't help but smile, it was really good at the top, but it was very bad at the bottom, and the expenditure from the state treasury budget alone had already exceeded 1 million copper coins.

Although Li Qiong chose to avoid it because she was concerned about her personal interests, Li Zhongyi was particularly fond of Li Qiniang, as long as she was not blind, who couldn't see it?

In Li Zhongyi's hands, not only does he hold the Dazhou Qianzhuang, but also all the state-owned enterprises that belong to him, and they are also giant trading firms, where do they need to spend so much money on the treasury?

Under Han Xianglan's gaze, Li Zhongyi waved his pen and changed the expenditure of one million guan to zero, and left a line of instructions: all expenditures will be made by the inner treasury, and it will always be the rule.

The inner library is Li Zhongyi's private library. In the inner library, how much money is there and what rare treasures are hidden, except for Li Zhongyi and Huang Jingsheng, no one knows the inside story, and Han Xianglan is naturally no exception.

Due to the relationship of assisting in writing the abridgement, Han Xianglan knew in her heart that the cabinet had issued a letter many times, asking for a clear inventory of the inventory in the inner warehouse.

However, Li Zhongyi only didn't see it every time, and similar pieces were left unpublished, completely submerged in the waste paper heap.

Unlike the first emperor Chai Rong's instructions, Li Zhongyi adopted an attitude of staying in the middle and not sending it for ordinary greetings, sycophants, or concerts that were not pleasing to the eye and did not want to be condemned for words.

Li Zhongyi's personal control of the Tongjin Yintai Division, which straddles the cabinet and the cabinet, forces the ministers to only deal with the twists and turns that Li Zhongyi transferred to the cabinet, and have no way to intervene in the affairs that do not go through the cabinet.

There has always been a deep contradiction between imperial power and relative power. The imperial power is increased by one point, and the relative power is weakened by two points, and vice versa, ancient and modern, Chinese and foreign, all the same. ()
