Chapter 85
Ren Jin's compromise method was very good, except for the common people, all aspects were taken into consideration, but Li Tian didn't have much joy in his heart.

First issue a few tax-free edicts to test the reactions of the vassal princes in various places. This method sounds like the best of both worlds.

But in the eyes of the courtiers, this means that the court is afraid of the vassal king, and in the eyes of the vassal king, they will think that the court is afraid of them.

Unconsciously knocking on the table, Li Tian fell into deep thought, and raised his head after a long while:
"Shiqi, first draw up a few imperial decrees according to what Zongyu said, and see how the vassal princes of various places react. The wording should not be so gentle, but be stricter."

What Li Tian was worried about was exactly what Yang Shiqi thought.

Hearing that the emperor wanted to make a fuss about the tone of the imperial decree, Yang Shiqi's eyes lit up, and he exclaimed wonderfully in his heart, and cupped his hands and said:

"Your Majesty is thoughtful, and the old minister admires you."

The flattery of the chief minister of the cabinet, Li Tian is still very useful. With a light smile, he stopped Ren Jin who was about to go out to draft an order, turned to look at everyone and said:
"If someone says that I'm thoughtful, I'll definitely take him as a flatterer, but if Shi Qi says it, then I really have to believe it."

The emperor made fun of Shoufu, this was a scene rarely seen in 800 years, the three of Yang Rong burst out laughing upon hearing this.

After the three great scholars finished laughing, Li Tian pursed his lips, looked a little calmer, and said in a deep voice:

"Speaking of business, I intend to secretly set up a crisis situation in the court, and you will serve as my staff."

The staff and the staff must do this, and there is no room for discussion. Yang Shiqi and the others knew it in their hearts, and fell into deep thought.

The word "preparation for danger" is self-evident, and the word "preparation for danger in times of peace" is the second word, which is very appropriate to the current situation of Ming Dynasty.

From the founding of Taizu to the founding of Taizong, it has been more than [-] years since the founding of the Ming Dynasty. The people lived and worked in peace and contentment, and all countries came to the dynasty.

But under the peace, there are also various crises, such as the Mingjiao, which cannot be suppressed no matter how hard it is, the Oala Tatars, which may make a comeback at any time, and the courts where corruption is becoming more and more serious.

Could it be that His Majesty is planning to make a long-term plan?Several people thought secretly.

After pondering for a while, Huang Zhun took the lead in handing over:
"Your Majesty said that you think about the crisis, but you want to make long-term plans for the future?"

As soon as Huang Zhun said a word, Yang Shiqi and the others all turned their attention to Li Tian.

When it comes to who is the most powerful civil and military man in the Manchu Dynasty, Huang Zhun will definitely do his part. They also want to see how the famous people in front of the emperor can figure out how much the emperor wants.

"Zhong Chang is half right." Li Tian nodded his head and pursed his lips when he heard the words, took a sip of tea and said in a deep voice:
"I'm not afraid of you thinking too much. To tell you the truth, the Sidan situation I want to set up is, to put it bluntly, one of many factions in the court, and it's just for Daming."

Chao Zhongming's face is calm, but under the calm, there are already undercurrents surging. Li Tian's idea of ​​setting up a crisis situation has not been a day or two.

However, upon hearing the ears of the Sige University Scholars, they thought that the emperor was going to end up in person to form a clique.

Huang Zhun clicked his tongue secretly, Yang Shiqi's expression changed slightly, and Yang Rong and Ren Jin's expressions also tightened.

Seeing that the four people all looked nervous, Li Tian smiled dumbly, waved his hands and laughed:

"I said it was established in secret, why are you nervous?"

"Your Majesty, there is no room for me to wait and be nervous." Yang Shiqi got up and saluted, with a worried expression on his face:

"If Your Majesty ends up in person and forms a party in the court, the slanderers and flatterers will sweep the court.

At that time, everyone will pretend to be a royalist party, and use His Majesty's name to eradicate dissidents and seek personal gain. In the end, the government will not handle government affairs, and they will all sharpen their heads and try to please His Majesty.

If things go on like this, within three years, our Daming Sheji will be in danger of laying eggs, and the people will be in dire straits. "

Yang Shiqi said so seriously, Li Tian couldn't laugh any longer, and said with a slightly righteous face:
"Can't I set it up secretly?"

Yang Shiqi paused for a moment, and didn't make a long speech. Knowing that this kind of thing can only be persuaded slowly, he squinted his eyes and listened:

"Your Majesty, what a secret method, Rong Chen, wait and hear."

Taking a deep breath, it was the first time that Li Tian was about to confide in his heart. He went down the stairs and said face to face with Yang Shiqi:
"Let's put it this way, I have an earth-shattering plan in my heart. If the plan can be realized, there will be no refugees between the fields, cities and villages; there will be no huge greed in the courts and temples.

At that time, everyone in my Ming Dynasty can wear gold and silver, and can eat eggs, meat, vegetables and fruits every meal.

Farmers no longer have to guard the fields to worry about food rations, and merchants no longer have to leave their homes to make a living.

Those who are widowed and lonely are all taken care of by others, those who are young and children can go to school, and those who are sick can be cured by doctors. "

"Your Majesty, don't say it, don't say it, if you say it again, I will cry."

Yang Shiqi covered his face and choked with sobs, interrupting Li Tian's words very rarely.

Li Tian's face paused when he heard the words, and he looked intently, only to see that the four of Yang Shiqi's eyes were red, trembling all over, and secretly choked with emotion.

Yang Shiqi dragged his body, knelt heavily and said:

"Your Majesty forgive me. It's not that the old minister is unwilling to listen. In fact, it's what His Majesty said, which is more desirable than Xanadu. If my Ming Dynasty can really do what His Majesty said one day, the old minister will be worth it even if he dies."

Ancient civil servants had the saying of self-cultivation, family governance, country and world peace.

Yang Shiqi and Yang Rong are also famous loyal and capable ministers in history. Li Tian can understand the persistence and excitement in the hearts of Yang Shiqi and the others.

Picking up the four of them separately, Li Tian couldn't help feeling that he was lucky that he didn't meet those treacherous ministers like Qin Hui and Yan Song.

Although Yang Shiqi's life cannot be said to be all for the common people, at least they have nothing to choose in terms of loyalty to the emperor and patriotism.

Pulling the four of them to his side, Li Tianyu said earnestly:
"The Siwei Bureau I set up is a yamen working hard for the prosperity I mentioned earlier. I hope very much that you are the first batch to join in."

"The ministers are willing to join." The four of Yang Shiqi quickly bowed to the ground and said in unison.

"Okay, I know that the four elders are of one heart and one mind with me." Li Tianmu showed his expression, helped the four of them up again and said:

"The Siwei Bureau was established secretly by me, and I will never leave any written records. Every member of my subordinates joins, and I will be cautious and discuss it with the four of you.

However, there is still a need for a charter for the Siwei Bureau. Let me talk about the first one first, loyalty to the emperor and patriotism, you can add it. "

The grand scene Li Tian described today was engraved into the bones of the four of Yang Shiqi like a sharp knife.

After Li Tian threw bricks to attract jade, the four of Yang Shiqi showed great enthusiasm, and began to add bricks and tiles to the nascent crisis situation.

The few of them are well-read and knowledgeable, and they can remember the rules and regulations clearly. Li Tian is not that talented, so he can only pick up the ink pen and write it down carefully.

However, what Li Tian wrote was in pinyin, so people from this dynasty probably wouldn't be able to understand it.
