Chapter 1381 Reform

One stone stirs up a thousand layers of waves.

Reforms have attracted great attention from all dynasties.

When Li Kuan talked to Li Shimin, no one around heard what they were talking to.

But Li Shimin naturally wanted to convene important officials in the court to discuss the specific content of the reform.

In this way, the news inevitably spread.

Some people support it, and naturally some people oppose it.

However, the butt determines the head.

Overall, there are more people who support Li Kuan than those who oppose it.

Although this is closer to what Li Kuan predicted, it is obviously not something that Changsun Wuji and Gao Shilian can accept.

"Wuji, people are uneven. Those people are honest when they see us, but they have their own ideas behind their backs.

If this reform is really implemented, there will probably be a group of people out of our control.

Not to mention the departments after the reform, there must be many people from the Chu King Party occupying a key position.

Unexpectedly, we brought up an open plot to deal with the Chu King Party, and they also put forward the same counterattack opinion so quickly."

At this moment, Gao Shilian actually regretted it a little.

Compared with the Ministry of Personnel's arrangements for personnel to serve as official positions in Puluozhong, the impact of the imperial institutional reform is obviously greater.

Even if the former is implemented smoothly, it will not have a particularly significant impact on the actual influence of the Chu Prince's Mansion overseas in a short period of time.

After all, the emperor is far away from the sky, and it is not possible for a few officials to change the situation.

However, the institutional reforms of the court were different.

He could have predicted that once this institutional reform is implemented smoothly, the influence of the Changsun Party will immediately drop to a higher level.

At that time, it is hard to say that most of the officials in the court are Changsun Party. It is estimated that it will be difficult for you to maintain one-third of your influence.

Eighteen departments and so many positions, which force is not moved?

Some departments that seem to be more professional are most likely to be occupied by the Chu King Party.

Various forces will also intervene in other departments.

By then, there may be no more than six departments that Changsun Wuji can truly control.

Compared with the current situation where you have great power, it is a world of difference.

"Li Kuan is really a biting dog that doesn't bark. I haven't seen any special performance in politics before, but I didn't expect that this time I would throw a problem to me as soon as I took action.

Now even various newspapers have joined the discussion, and news of the imperial institutional reform has spread throughout Chang'an City.

In a short period of time, this trend of discussion cannot stop.

But this matter is so big, I think Your Majesty should not make a decision easily.

If you are not careful, trouble will occur."

Changsun Wuji was not in a good mood either.

After much calculation, he did not think that Li Kuan would take such a method to counterattack him.

In his opinion, this method is not necessarily a great thing for the Chu King Party.

Now the General Police Department, the Maritime Governor's Office, and the Ministry of Education are completely powers of the Chu King Party. After the reform, even if there is an increase, it will not increase much.

What is even more likely is that the Chu King Party’s control over these three yamen has decreased, but its control over some other yamen has been improved.

But overall, it is hard to say whether it is good or bad.

Although it cannot be said that it is killing one thousand enemies and destroying eight hundred of them.

However, this plan did not have particularly obvious benefits to the Chu Prince's Mansion, and Changsun Wuji saw it.

Because of this, he now feels even more headache.

Because this plan does not have particularly obvious benefits to the Changsun Party, the most powerful in the Korean Kingdom, and the King of Chu Party, which are the most powerful in the Korean Kingdom, it means that it is beneficial to other forces.

With this move, Li Kuan successfully hid the power of Chang'an City everywhere and united himself in a short time.

If Changsun Wuji simply opposes this reform now, there will be more people who will offend him.

Even his own people would change their minds because of this.

"This matter is really hard to say. Your Majesty's thoughts are becoming increasingly difficult to guess now.

Now he is gradually getting older and his health is not as good as before. If he thinks that institutional reform is an imperative, then it is possible to speed up the pace of reform. If any problems are exposed, he can save them in time.

Don’t leave this problem to His Royal Highness, and then it will cause harm to the Tang Dynasty.”

Ginger is still spicy.

Although Gao Shilian is not as trusted by Li Shimin as Changsun Wuji, he can see some problems more clearly.

Obviously, Li Shimin's starting point for considering the problem now is not exactly the same as he was more than ten years ago.

Changsun Wuji obviously hasn't fully realized this.

"If we were like you said, this time the institutional reform might be really hard for us to stop it."

Changsun Wuji was silent for a moment, and finally admitted this in a little frustrated manner.

...

"Teacher Yu, based on my observation of my father, he was moved by the second brother's proposal this time. Do you think we can get any benefits in this reform?"

In the Eastern Palace, Li Zhi was asking Yu Zhining for advice as always.

Such a big thing happened in the court, so he naturally had to communicate with Yu Zhining every day, otherwise he would not know how he should perform.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince may not have too high expectations. This time, the things we can do are very limited."

Although Yu Zhining didn't want to attack Li Zhi, this is a fact.

Although Li Zhi has been the prince for more than two years, his power in the court is really limited.

"If eighteen departments are established at once, can't we put a few people in?"

Li Zhi was obviously a little unwilling to accept it.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince, do you have the right candidate now? You are the Crown Prince. No matter who is the official in the eighteen departments, once you realize that the Crown Prince's position is as stable as Mount Tai, then there will naturally be people slowly moving towards you.

Now Your Majesty's energy is obviously not as good as before. Once the court officials realize this, someone will naturally take the initiative to join the East Palace.

So at this time, we do nothing, but the best solution.

After all, at this time, Your Majesty is sensitive after all. If he had some other ideas, it would be more than worth the loss."

After Yu Zhining said this, Li Zhi did not refute it again.

Although it seems that his position as the prince seems to be stable now.

But whether it is King Li Ke of Wu or Li Kuan, they are still an important threat to his ascension to the throne.

My influence in the court is too weak, and even if I am ruined by that time, there will not be many people talking for me.

But I couldn't do too many things, otherwise I would have made Li Shimin, who had no intention of deposing the prince, feel a different mind.
