Chapter 56: The Three Sparse Powers of the Country (1)
It was such a boring morning court. Lin Feng gave his first meeting in his heart a conclusion.
Following the command of the Liguan Officer, Lin Feng followed Han Xizai to the steps in front of Liangyi Hall. As soon as he stood up, he heard a sharp announcement: "The Emperor is here!" He and everyone put their heads deep on the ground, worshiping for a big gift, shouting "Long live", "Long live", "Long live". When he stood up with everyone, before he could carefully observe the entire court, he heard the shout of "retreat the court", and then he thanked everyone for a thank-you. Like a puppet, he was carried on a line to perform a short big gift, and everything was over.
As soon as Li Jing left, the entire team immediately relaxed, and officials from all over the world began to walk towards their respective office offices in groups. Lin Feng was just a prosecutor of literary officials. A small official like him, and he picked up a lot of people in the entire Jinling City. Naturally, he had no office office and had to follow Han Xizai toward the palace gate.
"Lin Yilang, please stay." A sharp voice woke Lin Feng who was walking burying his head. He looked up and saw that it was the little eunuch who announced the imperial edict yesterday.
"What are your instructions for father-in-law?" Lin Feng's heart suddenly jumped. It was because Li Jing wanted to summon him privately.
"Lin Yilang, the emperor now ordered our family to wait here so that we can take Lin Yilang to see the imperial study room." The eunuch said in a trembling voice. He had not been in the palace for a long time, so he naturally knew that the people who could meet the emperor in the imperial study room would sooner or later be ordinary people.
"Then please ask my father-in-law to guide Lin." Lin Feng immediately said goodbye to Han Xizai and asked him to go to the Ministry of Works to help find a good craftsman who is proficient in engineering budgets. He was calm and walked with the little eunuch to the northwest corner of the palace.
Along the way, Lin Feng's face seemed calm, but in fact he was secretly looking at the palace city of the Southern Tang Dynasty. Because the palace city was Jinling Mansion before, the layout was obviously not as strong as the Forbidden City in later generations, and it was slightly restrained. However, the exquisite style in the south was fully revealed. The eaves, panes, and murals were all meticulous, revealing exquisiteness and beauty.
After turning a few rockery and a small path with green shades, Lin Feng followed the eunuch to the imperial study room. He saw that the gate of Zhuhong was open, and there was no one else in the room except the two palace maids serving him.
"Please wait for Lang Lin. The emperor will go and greet the Empress Dowager and you will arrive immediately." The young eunuch said softly and retreated.
Lin Feng looked around and found that although the entire imperial study room was larger than Li Yu's study room, it was slightly less exquisite. It seemed that Li Jing was fashionable and advocating simplicity, and was not as arrogant and lustful as in the late period of his reign. Lin Feng walked to the brocade stool in front of the desk, sat down gently, and began to think quietly, looking at his nose, nose and heart.
I don’t know how long it took, but suddenly I heard the eunuch outside the study shouting: “The emperor is here!”
Lin Feng woke up from his meditation and quickly prostrated himself on the ground, shouting: "Long live my husband Lin Feng, who was so angry, I was so angry, and I was so angry, and I was so angry, and I was so angry, and I was so angry, and I was so angry, and I was so angry, and I was so angry, and I was so angry, and I was so angry, and I was so angry, and I was so angry, and I was so angry, and I was so angry, and I was so angry, and I was so angry, and I was so angry, and I was so angry, and I was so angry, and I was so angry, and I was so angry, and I was so angry, and I was so angry, and I was so angry, and I was so angry, and I was so angry, and I was so angry, and I was so angry, and I was so angry, and I was so angry, and I was so angry, and I was so angry, and I was so angry, and I was so angry, and I was so angry, and I was so angry, and I was so
Before Li Jing arrived, laughter came first: "Haha, Lin Aiqing is here, no gifts." He took two steps quickly, helped Lin Feng, who was still kneeling on the ground with both hands, pressed him on the brocade stool in front of the desk, and sat down behind the desk.
"My Linlin's son, Chongguang, has been studying hard recently as hard as before, and I'm serious and easy to ask. I'm curious about it. Chongguang said that it was all due to Mr. Lin's careful guidance. Unexpectedly, Lin Aiqing has the ability to teach and educate people." Li Jing smiled and looked at Lin Feng firmly. Hu Xueli, a master whom he saw at Li Yu's house last time, followed closely with bright eyes, staring straight at Lin Feng like an eagle staring at a chick.
"I just talked to King Zheng twice and dared not bear the praise of Your Majesty. Everything depends on His Highness Zheng's natural intelligence and learning with all his heart." Lin Feng quickly replied modestly.
"Life is actually guidance and guidance at critical moments. Isn't it the same for a country?" Li Jing sighed, and took the opportunity to lead the topic to governing the country.
"Forgive me for my arbitrary discussion. I look at the words "Spread the Breaking Huanxisha" of Your Majesty, which are sincere and elegant, which shows that Your Majesty's inner tranquility is high-end and has a high-end style. When I first entered this imperial study, I couldn't believe that this was the study room of my Tang Dynasty monarch. It does not emphasize luxury, it is simple and generous, and it shows that Your Majesty is devoted to governance and is obsessed with government affairs. I admire you very much." In fact, when I first arrived at the imperial study room, Lin Feng saw his papers placed in a conspicuous place on the desk, and was cursed with a white jade. Naturally, he was eager to talk about the topic of change, but he still flattered him.
Li Jing smiled and said nothing, and picked up the paper on the table: "Lin Aiqing, I have read your three memorials from "Strong Country", "Strong Army" and "Rich People" since yesterday. The items listed in the memorials are analyzed in detail, and the improvement measures are concise and accurate, and not out of reality. I can't help but sigh a lot, thinking that I, the civil and military officials of the Tang Dynasty are at their peak, but none of them have such courage, talent, and ideas and measures to innovate. Today, I want to communicate with you seriously."
Then Lin Feng quickly expressed his modesty: "Maybe it's just that many ministers are not as reckless as me. I'm thinking about it for a short time, and there will be something missing in the three memorials. Please forgive me and investigate the chaos."
"Since the founding of our dynasty, we have insisted on reform and changed a lot. In particular, the old emperor, in the third year of Fengyuan (939 AD), strongly advocated promulgation of the law of my Tang, "Bingyuan", and three years later, the "Bingyuan Deletion and Declaration Notes" was promulgated; the old emperor also resigned his sword and soldiers, had good neighbors, reduced taxes, encouraged agriculture and sericulture, promoted water conservancy, and released rare birds and beasts offered by various states in Zhongshan, and eliminated Xuanzhou Sui Palace Papaya and Fruit. It was this series of changes that made my Tang Dynasty accumulate national strength to this extent." Li Jing talked slowly, but his eyes couldn't help but lifted his eyes, staring at the window lattice of the study window, and couldn't help but recall his father, and secretly sighed in his heart that his father had been a hero who had been in his lifetime, but he died of ingesting the elixir.
Indeed, Li Bing is a talented and stubborn founding king, but unfortunately you are not a perfect successor. Lin Feng complained in his heart.
"Your Majesty." Lin Feng shouted softly, pulling Li Jing back from his memories, "Your Majesty is diligent and loving the people, sleeping day and night, and inheriting the will of Liezu, you will surely achieve unprecedented foundation. Regarding the change, I have a few words to offer celery to the saint, please forgive me."
"Of course it's okay. I'm summoning my beloved today just to listen to what I'm saying." Li Jing's eyes were no longer confused, and he stared at Lin Feng tightly.
"Since ancient times, change has been very difficult. Change means that change, change, and change will inevitably bring pain. The reason why people are unwilling to change is nothing more than three reasons: First, those who have vested interests do not want to change, they will only defend their own interests, and even further strengthen their own interests. Second, those who are conservative in their thoughts are afraid of reform because of their ignorance in the future. Third, they are trends and trends, like fencemen, and only the trend of change is the leader, which is the least worth worrying." Lin Feng slowed down his speech and slowly expressed some of his thoughts.
A very serious expression appeared on Li Jing's face, nodded without saying anything.
