Sheng Shi Merciful Light

Mu Ci stepped into Chongzheng Hall for the second time.

The morning sun rose, and a golden light sprinkled behind Mu Ci, reflecting this beautiful person like an exiled fairy, elegant in the world.Everyone couldn't move their eyes, the entire Chongzheng Hall was so quiet that even the sound of breathing could hardly be heard.

With elegant steps, Mu Ci passed between the civil and military classes, and greeted Wang Youlun: "Wang Xianggong." He also greeted the "teachers" standing in the front row.

Regardless of their thoughts, the officials of the Political Affairs Hall responded politely one by one.

Wang Youlun praised: "Your Highness, this time is very punctual."

Mu Ci was not pleased with herself, and took it for granted: "Everyone must abide by the laws and regulations that have been set, and I am no exception."

"That's the reason." Not only Wang Youlun, but other officials also felt that it was reasonable—the King of Chu has nothing to lose, at least he obeyed the rules and kept his word.

Wang Youlun pointed to an unfamiliar veteran beside him and said, "This is Your Majesty's benefactor, Prime Minister Zhao Taishi."

Zhao Jiu bowed and saluted: "I have seen His Highness the King of Chu."

"Excuse me, you've worked hard!" Mu Ci nodded reservedly.

Mu Ci knew Zhao Jiu.With Ye Xingwei around, he knew the details of everyone in the court very well.Zuo Cheng is very important to the country, and has a great influence on Emperor Deguang. If there are problems with Zhao Jiu's background, character and inclinations, Mu Ci will not sit idly by.

Wang Youlun's recommendation of Zhao Jiu is a matter of government affairs, and there is no need to discuss with a vassal king in advance.Wang Youlun never told Mu Ci.To be honest, he was also a little afraid that Mu Ci would object, so he killed him first and didn't play later.Seeing that Mu Ci's attitude is still good now, he is relieved.

Mu Ci understood Wang Youlun's psychology and didn't mind, because Wang Youlun did nothing wrong.

Mu Ci only took out the agenda sheet in his pocket and asked, "Is there any change in the agenda for today's court meeting?".

"No." Wang Youlun said.Although the topic Mu Ci raised was relatively sensitive, pointing directly at the important affairs of military aircraft and shaking the unspoken rules, there was nothing in violation of the rules.Although Wang Youlun was in a hurry, he couldn't suppress it forcibly, so he could only put it in the agenda.

Mu Ci nodded and walked towards his throne.Mou Yu was fully equipped with armor and weapons, and followed silently, standing behind Mu Ci's throne.

For all the princes, only Mu Ci brought a lucky number one master as a guard when he went to court alone.But everyone knew that this was the late emperor's last words, ordering Mou Yu to carry a weapon and never leave the guards, so no one dared to criticize him.

There are three more princes coming today.

King Chang Shan is the left marshal of the Northwest Army. This year he takes a rotation to bring his own soldiers back to Tianjing for rectification.

King Qinghe has succeeded Dazong Zhengling. Because King Qi had a stroke and was paralyzed, he was unable to manage affairs. Among the princes, King Qinghe was the only one with seniority, seniority, and great reputation. He also won the sacred heart because he gave the credit for building the Confucian Temple to Emperor Deguang. , let him take care of the Dazong Zhengsi and the affairs of the royal family.

Besides, the king of Qinghe is also old, and he is not suitable for traveling around, so everyone will be happy to be a great master.

These two princes are very powerful and should go to court, but King Guangling only loves to deal with businessmen. He is an idle prince. Except for occasional disasters in the country, he donates money and spends money, and never interferes with the court.I don't know why I went to court today.

Fortunately, he had said hello in advance and added a royal chair under King Qinghe, so there was no joke about letting the prince stand.

The vacant chair belongs to King Ding. He should also come to lead the Sixth Army, but he is still on sick leave, and Prince Xian dare not continue to represent him.

But Mu Ci knew that King Ding was holding a wait-and-see attitude towards the reform of the military system, and wanted to see the situation before talking.He was afraid that Mu Ci would force him to agree in the court, so he simply didn't come.

If you can't afford it, you can always hide it!

……

Mu Ci nodded to King Chang Shan, and King Chang Shan also nodded coldly.Although the two of them have started the business of dealing with trauma medicines, and they have been classified as a camp in private, but in fact, the two of them are just acquaintances, and they have no intention of further dating.

Because both of them hold heavy soldiers, it is not easy to get too close.

King Qinghe took the initiative to move forward and talk to Mu Ci.

King Qinghe knew the truth about the construction of the Confucian Temple best in his heart, and he was very grateful to Mu Ci for reminding his eldest son, Mu Yunge, "Keep your expression on your face and go home to discuss it with your father".After all, his eldest son is young, although his literary talent is amazing, he still has less experience, and he doesn't understand the cruelty of politics even if he is not in the court.

Although King Qinghe was tempted for a second, in the end he resolutely gave the credit for building the Confucian Temple to Emperor Deguang, so that he could enjoy the benefits he got.And scholars are not stupid, they can guess who proposed it-this is really called fame and fortune.

King Qinghe is the most transparent, and he also knows that this "fame and fortune" is a benefit Mu Cibai gave him - if he can think of Jianwu Temple, it is impossible not to think of Jianwen Temple.

However, even if Mu Ci didn't do him any favors, King Qinghe still felt that this young boy who was extremely intelligent, cunning but without dark thoughts was worthy of friendship.Therefore, King Qinghe's expression was extremely sincere. Although it was just a simple greeting to the body, it had a different meaning in the eyes of courtiers who were as human as spirits—the relationship between the two princes was really good.

Doesn't King Qinghe belong to Emperor Deguang's camp?

Mu Ci also had a pleasant look towards King Qinghe, and King Qinghe was sober and intelligent, worthy of his friendship.

King Guangling looked at the two princes who were talking, and then glanced at King Hanshan who was exuding air-conditioning, and kept moving his buttocks on the king's chair.It wasn't until Mu Ci gave him a gesture similar to "peace of mind" that he showed a relieved smile, sat upright and stopped moving.

Several courtiers who had been paying attention to the throne keenly noticed this detail, and thought: Sure enough, King Guangling was sent to the palace by the King of Chu.I haven't seen the two have an intersection, when will they become a camp?

King Chu's scheming methods are truly unfathomable.

When the time came, Emperor Deguang went to court, and everyone stood up and bowed to salute.Mu Ci also got up to salute, and then ignored Emperor Deguang's burning eyes and sat quietly, only looking at the agenda in his hand.

The king of Chu, who is casual and doesn't care about the emperor; Emperor Deguang, who is excited and wants to rush to the king of Chu...

Everyone expressed that they were used to watching these two brothers, and they really didn't know what to say.

……

At the beginning of the court meeting, state affairs will be discussed first, and then military affairs will be discussed.In the first half an hour, under the auspices of Prime Minister Wang, the court will go according to the agenda... Today's efficiency is extremely high, and no one dares to argue.The officials no longer peeked at the emperor's face when they spoke, but subconsciously glanced at the king of Chu.

It's just that no one could guess what King Chu was thinking from his expression.

The King of Chu's face is calm, not indifferent, not arrogant, not happy, not worried and angry, his eyes are like a quiet lake under the moon, without ripples.But it's not empty, as if it's pouring into the sky of the universe, the stars and rivers are flowing, ancient and deep, and it doesn't move or stop for insignificant human affairs.

Emperor Deguang was at peace with no worries and no fears. He never expected to uphold the authority of the emperor. Even he himself just stared at Mu Ci, thinking that his ninth younger brother was indeed Dinghaishenzhen. Improve meeting efficiency.But worry about that fragile body.

Seeing that the ninth brother changed his sitting position twice, he was afraid he was tired, so he immediately called Li Hai over, and said in a low voice: "The cushion of the king's chair for the ninth brother is not thick enough, take my seat cushion and add another layer for the ninth brother." .”

Li Hai: "..." It is already twice as thick as others, but in the face of his younger brother, he can only obey orders, besides, the King of Chu seems to be a little tired, reclining, resting his forehead with one hand, with a small and thin body It looks even thinner on the large king chair, coupled with a delicate and lovable beauty, it makes people feel distressed.

Can't see any lethality at all.

All officials who thought this way immediately realized how big a mistake they had made.

When Li Hai took the bright yellow cushion to spread Mu Ci's bed, the state affairs had already been discussed, and Mu Ci took advantage of the opportunity to stand up, move her shoulders and back, and began to make big moves.

Emperor Deguang was always honored to see Mu Ci's "killing the Quartet" with a great mischievous mentality, looking forward to the wonderful expressions on the faces of these officials who usually look submissive to him but are not very tame .

Everyone held their breaths and waited for the king of Chu to mention the reform of the military system, but the king of Chu was a person who never followed the rules. He only said: "There are six measures for military reform on the agenda. According to the rules and regulations, the six items involved As for the internal affairs of the Sixth Army of Guards, I, the commander-in-chief, can decide, and there is nothing to discuss. The reason why it is submitted is because the army of the imperial court is being changed, and everyone must know that there is such a thing.”

Everyone: "..."

"The only system that involves external affairs and requires the full support of the imperial court is the one that needs to be discussed," Mu Ci pulled out his signature small silk cloth that could torture people to death from his arms, and beckoned Li Hai to read it.

Everyone's faces turned pale!

Emperor Deguang looked at Li Hai—what's going on?Li Hai lowered his head, not daring to delay, quickly took the small silk cloth, and read: "Reform the system of payment of military pay and pensions."

Only one title refers to the unspoken rules!

It was no surprise that the generals of the Sixth Army of the Guards were mentally prepared, but the other generals exploded. The silent court hall soon heard a "buzzing" sound, and more people made eye contact, only conveying a message—— Twisted into a rope, no one can betray first, joint hard top.

Mu Ci signaled Li Hai to continue reading.

Li Hai shook his legs and read word by word according to the small silk cloth: "Abolish the old system of payment of salaries, no longer pay by quartermasters of various numbers, introduce a third-party supervision mechanism, prepare to establish a payment agency, and pay by individuals Change the mode of "To Individual" to "Issued by Organization to Individual".

First, the Ministry of War formulates the basic military pay, merit awards, and pensions for each level of sergeant, and makes it public.

Second, the Ministry of War has fixed quotas, and the Ministry of Households will no longer allocate money to the Ministry of War, but directly to the payment agency supervised by a third party.The allocation time has also been changed from the end of each year to quarterly, respectively in March, June, September, and late December.Unless there are special circumstances, the delay in transferring money from the household department shall not exceed ten days.

Third, set up a payment agency in the urban area or at a fixed point in the camp area, which is called the Daxing Royal Bank. Each sergeant will receive his own salary, bonus and pension by himself or his immediate family members with his military plate, agreed secret words, seal tokens, etc., and sign and draw a deposit , recorded for verification.

Fourth, the Daxing Royal Bank is open all year round, even on holidays. The daily working hours are in accordance with the regulations of the government office. Sergeants can apply for payment at any working time.

Fifth, the wartime allowances issued in the theater are also issued by the Taiko Royal Silver.The sergeant handed over the spoils, and will not be rewarded in kind, but converted into achievement points, and can apply for the corresponding amount of silver at the Daxing Royal Bank.

Sixth, this resolution is handed over to the Ministry of Household Affairs, the Ministry of War, the Privy Council, and the Sixth Army of the Guards for joint discussion and improvement. "

Everyone was stunned by one, two, three, and four, but the general concept is still there, that is, all things related to money go to the distribution point of the Daxing Royal Bank. Except for the person who receives the money and his family members, other people a copper plate.Moreover, the amount of payment is made public, the conversion of trophies into merit points, and how to exchange merit points will all form detailed rules and regulations, and there is no way to deduct them if you want to.

Yang Ye, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, and Zhu Xi of the Privy Council looked at each other, and read the same message from each other's eyes—the king of Chu really moved!latent!regulation!but!

It’s not counting if our unspoken rules have been touched, the payment is based on the small army card, and each person receives one by one... This is the rhythm of checking the amount of specific soldiers.For their 500-man battalion, a [-]% real number is already excellent, and three costs can be eaten up... In this way, they can't afford a single penny.

This is unbearable, worse than digging up family graves.The military generals quickly assembled and raised their wat boards to bring down this anti-human His Highness the King of Chu.

Emperor Deguang was hesitant to let these military officers speak up. The military officers who could stand on duty were all good at cursing the streets. Don't hold your breath, it's also one of the compulsory courses like "On the General's Self-Cultivation".

And maybe, the Chaohui Cliff will become a martial arts arena, but the ninth brother has Mou Yu by his side, so don't be afraid, but what if... there are too many people and the scene is chaotic, what if there is no protection?

When Emperor Deguang was hesitating, a civil servant broke the deadlock in a low voice...

"That... Taiko Royal Silver... what is it?" someone asked.

I have only heard of the Tianbao Bank opened by King Guangling, but I have never heard of any lucky Royal Bank. What the hell is it?

Everyone: "..."
