Chapter 1234 The Rule of God and Martial Arts
It's New Year's Eve again.
As Liu Xiyi said in his poem: "Flowers are similar every year, but people are different every year."
Every year, Daxia will go one step further, and reach a new level. This year coincides with the promotion to the dynasty, and it is like a raging fire cooking oil. The grand occasion is unprecedented, and it really has a scene of prosperity.
Some ministers have suggested that it be called "the rule of gods and martial arts".
What makes the people even more excited is that after being promoted to the imperial court, the imperial court did not rest on its laurels. As soon as it was promoted, it proposed three national policies one after another.
Emperor Xia swallowed the hearts of the world, making the world admire him.
With such an emperor, the Great Xia is very fortunate, and the common people are very fortunate!
It was night, and the capital was very lively. The fireworks in the night sky had not stopped since the evening. With countless colored lanterns, lanterns and candles, the capital was completely turned into a city that never sleeps.
The people in the capital are celebrating New Year's Eve, and they are also celebrating this rare prosperity.
Wangcheng, the palace.
The routine royal family banquet had come to an end, and the feast was very lively.
Over the past year, members of the royal family have also grown up, either in the army, or in the yamen, or in the group, gradually gaining a foothold, becoming a new force that cannot be ignored in the ruling and opposition parties.
Among the members, Ouyang Huan, who had just been appointed as the prefect of Wuzhou, was undoubtedly the most dazzling one.
"Your Majesty, I offer you a toast!"
Ouyang Huan left his seat and offered a toast to Ouyang Shuo. Ouyang Huan knew very well that the previous appointment as the prefect of Wuzhou not only caused turmoil in the court and the public, but also in the royal family, there were countless people who were jealous.
If he wanted to gain a firm foothold in Daxia, besides ability, he also needed the support of His Majesty.
Ouyang Shuo is sitting in the main seat at the moment, Luo Er, who is already one and a half years old, is sitting on his lap. When Ouyang Huan came over, Ouyang Shuo was peeling her favorite grapes for his precious daughter, and his doting affection was beyond words.
Ouyang Shuo didn't want to imitate the ancient emperors, saying that the heavenly family was ruthless, even for Yu'er, Ouyang Shuo didn't strictly restrain him, let him go free, and fully respected the child's nature.
In order to let the two children lay the foundation of cultivation, Ouyang Shuo even insisted on going offline once a day, using the pure essence of "Five Emperors Manual" to warm and nourish the meridians of the second child.
Seeing Ouyang Huan coming, Ouyang Shuo put down the half-peeled grapes, raised his glass from a distance, and said with a smile, "Third Uncle, Happy New Year!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Ouyang Huan was very grateful for His Majesty's respect, but he knew that at this moment, there were countless pairs of eyes staring at this place, either openly or secretly.
The two uncles and nephews took this opportunity to chat about government affairs.
At this moment, seeing her father chatting with the third grandpa and not peeling grapes for her, the little princess Luoer finally got angry, pouting her mouth, and suddenly stretched her fleshy little hand upwards, grabbing her father's beard.
The majestic image that Ouyang Shuo worked so hard to maintain disappeared instantly.
"Hehe, the little princess is angry, so I'm leaving now." Seeing His Majesty's embarrassment, it's not the way to be a minister if you stay in the same place to watch, so Ouyang Huan left wisely.
After chatting for a few words, Ouyang Huan's goal has been achieved.
In fact, how could Ouyang Shuo care about this small detail, he said "Third Uncle, go slowly", turned around and began to coax the little princess, and peeled grapes for her to apologize.
Speaking of the beard grabbed by Luo Er, there is another story in it.
Ouyang Shuo was young, and it was really not easy to convince a group of civil and military ministers, at least from the image point of view, he was a little too tender, and he couldn't give people a sense of maturity and stability.
In view of this, Song Jia suggested that Ouyang Shuo grow a beard to make up for the age gap.
Ouyang Shuo is a good person, so he grew a beard, and he really looks a lot more mature. At first glance, he is no longer a hot-blooded young man who just entered the game, but already a mature uncle.
Although a bit old-fashioned, Ouyang Shuo was still very satisfied.
After the little episode, the whole banquet was coming to an end, and everyone dispersed.
…………
On the first day of the first lunar month, as usual, sacrifices will be made to the ancestral temple and the country.
The difference is that in this year's ancestral temple, the ancestral tablets of Ouyang's lineage were invited, and the spiritual tablets of Ouyang Shuo's parents were also placed in the ancestral temple, and they were also posthumously named the Supreme Emperor and the Supreme Empress.
In this way, it is also to show filial piety to the subjects of the world.
Next came another week of long vacation. During the imperial court's rest, apart from paying attention to the war in Africa, Ouyang Shuo was relieved of all government affairs and devoted himself to being with his family.
In a blink of an eye, on February 15th, the imperial court opened the Yamen again.
Wangcheng, the palace.
Years ago, after visiting Mr. Zhang and Mr. Guo, Ouyang Shuo was preparing for a major event in order to eliminate the misunderstanding of Da Xia and Ouyang Shuo from the outside world, especially the elite.
After the opening of the Yamen, the matter was officially put on the agenda.
Ouyang Shuo is planning to set up the Great Xia Supreme Court outside the cabinet, which will be in charge of the final interpretation of the "Great Xia Law Code" along with Zizheng Pavilion, Honglu Temple, Yushitai and other institutions.
Under certain circumstances, the Supreme Court of Daxia also has the power of judicial review to review judicial cases that are relatively controversial from the Criminal Justice Department of the Internal Affairs Council or the Provincial Governor’s Yamen Criminal Criminal Division.
In this way, it is equivalent to hanging a sword of Damocles over the head of the Interior Council.
The Department of Public Security, the Department of Prosecution, and the Supervision Department under the Ministry of Internal Affairs are tantamount to integrating public security and law into one body, which is obviously very detrimental to the promotion of the rule of law and the maintenance of the authority of the Great Xia Law Code.
After the establishment of the Great Xia Supreme Court, which is in charge of censorship, it will be able to form a solid iron triangle with the Yushitai, which is in charge of supervision, and the Internal Affairs Yuan, which is in charge of judicial enforcement.
More importantly, in order to practice the rule of law and maintain the authority of the "Great Xia Code", Ouyang Shuo is going to set up a principle for the Supreme Court of Daxia: "The Son of Heaven breaks the law and commits the same crime as the common people!"
It means that Ouyang Shuo is restraining himself.
What Ouyang Shuo did was not only a response to those elites who said he was a feudal emperor, but also an objective need to improve the internal governance structure of Da Xia.
Of course, Ouyang Shuo had great trust in Minister of Internal Affairs Wei Yang, but Wei Yang could not always be in charge of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and the entire internal affairs system would not act entirely according to Wei Yang's will.
The fundamental solution is to form institutional constraints.
What Ouyang Shuo didn't expect was that when he proposed this idea, no one in the cabinet agreed with it. The reason is very simple. Restricting the monarchy is an unprecedented thing, and it should not be the first of its kind.
If it is said that when formulating the Yanhuang Thought, Ouyang Shuo put forward the principle of "water can carry a boat, but it can also overturn it, and monarchy is not granted by heaven", it can still be accepted by the ministers.
So this time, Ouyang Shuo really encountered resistance.
Ouyang Shuo knew very well that the ministers objected to defend the authority of the emperor on the surface, but in fact they were protecting their own interests.
Just imagine, if the emperor is bound by the "Great Xia Code", since ancient times, the unspoken rule of "not punishing a doctor" is bound to be broken, so how can the ministers not be worried.
The impact on historical talents is really too great, and it is normal for them to be unable to accept it for a while.
Even so, Ouyang Shuo was determined not to change.
From the sixth year of Gaia, when formulating the national policy of Great Xia, Ouyang Shuo associated it with the future planet of hope, and the connection became deeper as time passed.
Ouyang Shuo's ultimate goal is to completely bridge the gap between the two worlds.
When landing on Planet Hope in the future, Ouyang Shuo hopes that this system in the game world can be easily copied directly on Planet Hope, so as to realize real-time two-way communication between the two worlds.
