"Oh? Xue Rengui? Li Shimin was surprised when he heard this, and the ministers were also surprised, Xue Rengui is a military attaché, what advice can he give to the rule of officials, but Xue Rengui is now a member of the Tongzhong Shumen, and he has already entered the prime minister, so he naturally has the right to speak on the government affairs.

Li Shimin and the ministers have similar ideas, and he is not very optimistic about Xue Rengui, at least in terms of political affairs, he is not very optimistic, but since Xue Rengui wants to say it, he can't help but listen to it, so he spread his hands and said: "Xue Qing, please speak." ”

"Yes." Xue Rengui said, "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the local officials are turbid, all because of insufficient supervision, there are ten ways in the Tang Dynasty, and the officials in the Guannei are Qingming, all because the Son of Heaven is in Chang'an, and Chang'an is in the Guannei Road, but the farther away from Chang'an, the more worrying the rule of the officials is, because the emperor is far away, and the supervision is naturally not effective." ”

"It's a sky-high emperor." Hearing this, Li Shimin spread his hands and said, "You continue to speak, I will listen to everything." ”

"Yes." Xue Rengui continued, "Your Majesty wants to rule Qingming, want the long-term peace and stability of the Tang Dynasty, you need to start with supervision, the minister proposed, can be set up in various states and counties in the Tang Dynasty Dali Temple sub-offices, Dali Temple's responsibilities have also been increased, local Dali Temple officials and inquiries, responsible for supervising the style of local officials, in addition, the Dali Temple local branch will share the local government's civil disputes, criminal investigation cases, and local security duties, this is the policy of criminal and political separation. ”

Li Shimin's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he spread his hands and said, "You continue to speak, keep talking." ”

"Yes." Xue Rengui saw that Li Shimin seemed very interested, and continued, "The state and county officials will be removed from the right to hear the case and all will be transferred to the local Dali Temple, because the state and county officials are all civil officials, and they are not good at criminal investigation, and it is easy to try wrong cases, or they will not be able to try cases, so that the state and county officials will be relaxed, and the people will not have to suffer." ”

When Li Shimin heard this, he couldn't help asking: "Then the people from Dali Temple will try the case?" ”

"Your Majesty, there is a specialization in the art industry. Dali Temple was originally responsible for criminal investigation, when the establishment of the local government office, you can send a special person to train criminal investigation talents, the original state and county yamen of the arrest fast charge into the Dali Temple local government office, they originally had contact with this way, a study will, from then on, the post of catching fast, belongs to the exclusive Dali Temple, cancel the Dali Temple to ask the name of the matter. ”

"Hmm." Li Shimin nodded slowly when he heard this, "The local government office of Dali Temple has the right to supervise the state and county officials, the right to supervise the people, and the duty to protect the people, but in this way, isn't the Dali Temple powerful?" ”

Xue Rengui said: "Your Majesty, Dali Temple has the right to supervise the local government, but it cannot interfere in anything with the local government, in turn, the local government also has the right to supervise the Dali Temple, and cannot interfere in any matters of the local government office of Dali Temple, but in case of emergency changes, such as famine, natural disasters, man-made disasters, civil uprisings, etc., the local government has the right to order the Dali Temple to send personnel to assist the government in its work, and in terms of authority, it is still headed by the local government. ”

"I see, they complement each other, it's wonderful." Li Shimin smiled when he heard this, and it was obvious that he was very satisfied with Xue Rengui's proposal.

So he looked at the ministers again and asked in a loud voice: "What do you think, what is Xue Rengui's advice, you can speak freely." ”

Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, they are secretly exchanging opinions, after all, everyone only discussed two days ago to support Xue Rengui, and now Xue Rengui is out of the limelight, they should support it, but Xue Rengui actually stole the limelight of their civil officials, which makes them very uncomfortable, you are a military general to fight well, why do you learn from Li Hao, and interfere in political affairs, and don't pay attention to it.

At this time, Li Hao suddenly came out and said, "Your Majesty, the minister has something to say." ”

Hearing this, the ministers held their breath and stared to see what Li Hao's opinion was, they have now developed a habit, what Li Hao said, they said it in turn, it was right.

Li Shimin was very happy to see that Li Hao had ideas, because Li Hao often put forward good policies for governing the country in the court, so he spread his hands and said: "Speak!" ”

Li Hao said: "The minister does not agree with General Xue's advice. ”

"Oh?" Li Shimin frowned when he heard this, and asked puzzledly, "Why don't you agree?" ”

Li Hao said solemnly: "The minister thinks that the method proposed by General Xue is too hurtful, the minister just roughly estimated, there are 360 prefectures in Datang, more than 1,500 counties, if there is an official office of Dali Temple in every state and county, there are ten to 20 officials in each official office, the county arrest is calculated according to 30 people, and the state arrest is calculated according to 100 people, so many people, the sum of a year's income is at least 500,000 yuan, Your Majesty, my Datang's annual treasury income is only more than 3 million yuan. ”

Li Shimin couldn't help but be moved when he heard this, he really didn't calculate this account, he was happy, think about it carefully, 500,000 guan, that is one-sixth to one-seventh of Datang's annual income, although Datang is not worried about money now, but if there is more than 500,000 guan of expenditure every year, then if there is a war or a big famine or something, I am afraid that there will be a dilemma, and, listening to Li Hao's meaning, 500,000 guan is just the minimum standard, it is very likely to be higher, 600,000 guan? 700,000? Li Shimin had a little headache.

"Your Majesty!" Chu Suiliang suddenly came out of the column and said in a loud voice, "The minister thinks that what King Qiongnan said is wrong. ”

Hearing this, Li Shimin hurriedly asked, "Oh? Something is wrong there? ”

Chu Suiliang said: "Your Majesty, General Xue has already said that the local government's arrests will be transferred to Dali Temple, these arrests are just a change of place, and there will be no additional expenditures at all, so what King Qiongnan said about 500,000 guan per year is just alarmist, and the minister has also calculated that the annual expenditure will not exceed 200,000 guan." ”

Li Shimin was stunned when he heard this, and then his face showed ecstasy, one is a minimum of 500,000 guan, and the other is not more than 200,000 guan, this difference is big, if according to what Chu Suiliang said, the imperial court is definitely affordable, and there is still a lot of leeway.

Li Hao had already turned his head to look at Chu Suiliang, his face was full of resentment, and Chu Suiliang also turned his head to look at Li Hao, his face was pale.

"Poet, do you have any other opinions?" Li Shimin looked at Li Hao with a smile.

Li Hao said helplessly: "Back to Your Majesty, the minister has nothing to say, Fang Cai is careless, and he didn't hear General Xue's words." ”

"Hahaha......" Li Shimin laughed happily, pointing at Li Hao and said, "I didn't expect you to be careless, it's rare, okay, this policy of division and rule of criminal and political affairs, let's make a decision, Xue Rengui, you go back and write a detailed note and submit it, I want to take a closer look, if there is no problem, it can be implemented." ”

"Obey the order!" Xue Rengui and Li Hao all retreated to their respective ranks.

Then the court discussed some things, and when it was almost noon, the court meeting ended, Li Shimin left first, and the ministers saluted and sent them off, and then the civil and military officials walked out of the Taiji Hall one after another.

Li Hao has been frowning and sad since just now, it seems that he is in a very bad mood, and the civil officials are very happy when they see him like this, inexplicably happy, Li Hao is not small today, and he is embarrassed in front of the civil and military officials and the emperor.

Li Hao walked out of the main hall, walked across the jade bridge, looked up at the blue sky and white clouds, although the weather was very good today, but his face was full of gloomy clouds, Li Hao sighed and shook his head slowly.

"Yo, why is Master Li shaking his head and sighing?" A gloating voice came, Li Hao didn't have to turn around, he knew that it was Chu Suiliang again, since the eldest grandson Wuji became obedient, this old guy likes to do it against himself, but Li Hao actually likes him very much, because Chu Suiliang is the head of the opposition, and he, the leader, is very stupid, he simply brought the opposition into the ditch, the key is that he didn't notice it himself, but happily came to show off to Li Hao, constantly showing off the lower limit of IQ, sometimes Li Hao really couldn't help laughing, just holding back.

It's the same this time, the national policy of criminal and political division proposed by Xue Rengui in the palace was taught by Li Hao, one of them sang with a white face and the other with a red face, playing these opponents around, Li Hao also deliberately sold a flaw, Chu Suiliang really got hit, you say stupid is not stupid, stupid is not stupid, it's just stupid to cry rhythm, but Chu Suiliang doesn't feel stupid, on the contrary, he feels that he is too powerful, at this time, you should come to show off your power with Li Hao, see how you are scared.

Regarding Chu Suiliang's habitual provocation, Li Hao felt that it was time to show his acting skills again, otherwise he would be sorry for the audience, so he turned his head and frowned at Chu Suiliang, and said coldly: "Lord Chu seems to be very idle, and he will come to this king after every court meeting to sneer at him." ”

Chu Suiliang saw Li Hao's appearance, not to mention how happy he was, he could finally avenge the last time he insulted him, so he smiled and said: "Time, there will always be, even if the official is busy, he will not forget to come and greet Lord Li." ”

"I greet your mother!" Li Hao directly scolded back, and the whites of his eyes were turned over.

Chu Suiliang was not annoyed this time, and sneered: "You scold, scold as much as you want, there are not many opportunities to scold in the future." ”

Li Hao snorted coldly: "Look at your villain's ambition." ”

"Who is the villain, isn't it clear in Lord Li's heart?" Chu Suiliang always maintained a smile on his face, but that smile really did not have the slightest kindness.

Li Hao pointed at Chu Suiliang angrily, and snorted coldly: "You wait, there is a time for you to cry!" With that, he turned his head and strode away, looking angry.

Because Li Hao walked fast, he was at the front, and the ministers were at the back, no one saw his face, if anyone saw it, they would find that Li Hao was laughing, and he was laughing so happily.

All the way out of the Chengtian Gate, and then out of the Vermilion Bird Gate, Li Hao went west, his horse stopped in the west, Ye Mengqiu and Zeng Yulin were waiting for him there.

However, after walking a short distance, someone suddenly shouted from behind: "King Qiongnan, please stay!" ”

Li Hao stopped, turned his head to look, and saw Di Renjie coming quickly, and when he got closer, Li Hao asked suspiciously: "What advice does Di Shaoqing have?" ”

Di Renjie glanced at Li Hao, and suddenly asked: "King Qiongnan has always been meticulous, why did he make such an obvious mistake when he was in the palace today?" ”

"Is it obvious?" Li Hao raised his eyebrows and said, "Xue Rengui's sentence was just a passing sentence, I didn't notice it." ”

Di Renjie shook his head and said: "It's understandable that others are wrong, but Lord Wang, Di still knows what you are, for such an important national policy, you must listen carefully to every word and will not be careless." ”

Li Hao suddenly frowned slightly and looked at Di Renjie and asked, "What do you want to say?" ”

Di Renjie shrugged his eyebrows and said slowly: "Di just thinks that the strategy of criminal and political division proposed by General Xue today is a bit like it came from the hands of the prince. ”

Li Hao was shocked when he heard this, he was really a smart person, he did it so strictly, he was still seen through by him at a glance, and he couldn't admire it, Li Hao suddenly looked at him with a wicked smile, and said slowly: "Huaiying, Huaiying, you know...... Too much. ”
