These resolutions include, but are not limited to:
1. The Six Codes of the Tang Dynasty, officially renamed the "Fundamental Code of the Tang Dynasty". It is the foundation of the founding of the Tang Dynasty and the general charter for the governance and security of the country. It applies to all the people of the Tang Dynasty. The emperor of the Tang Dynasty has the right to propose amendments to the "Fundamental Code of the Tang Dynasty". The proposal for the Fundamental Code needs to be voted and approved by the Central Conclave before being formally enacted.
This article seems unbelievable. The emperor of the Tang Dynasty actually only had the right to make suggestions? Instead of directly having the right to modify it? Is this Datang still the Emperor’s Datang?
In fact, after Li Ke proposed this article, Li Shimin passed it very happily.
Li Ke asked Li Shimin privately, and Li Shimin just replied calmly and immediately.
"Do you think that the emperors of the past dynasties can really change the laws at will? In fact, for all the laws of the past dynasties, the emperors have to discuss with the ministers below, or with the world's powerful families, nobles, etc. of."
"I don't know about the ancient times, but since the recorded history of China, it has almost never happened that the emperor can directly modify the laws and codes at will. This has nothing to do with how many people are killed. I think you can't really kill all the people, unless you can find A group of machines replace them. Governing a country is actually governing people."
"Actually, it's good to have this rule. Except for a very small number of people in this world, others don't even have the right to participate in formulating and modifying this rule, but they can only be bound by it."
These were Li Shimin's original words. Li Ke was a little stunned at the time. After being stunned, Li Ke fell into deep thought.
Although Li Ke has returned to the Tang Dynasty for so long, he has a deeper understanding of feudal society and imperial power. The emperor is not as able to do whatever he wants as he thought.
But Li Shimin's words still made Li Ke understand the emperor's rights more deeply. In this position... it is never possible to do whatever he wants.
With Li Shimin's words, Li Ke began to reflect, especially the history he had learned in his previous life. For this reason, Li Ke even went to the library in the warehouse to find all the recorded history books.
It is not the kind of history book that students of all eras will learn in later generations, but a more professional history book that belongs to each dynasty.
After reading all the books, Li Ke was shocked to find that what Li Shimin said was true.
Including emperors who were famous for killing people in history, such as Zhu Yuanzhang, the other party never said that he would offend everyone at once, but cleverly killed people within the rules. And this rule... is the rule that Zhu Yuanzhang negotiated with many noble families.
Or in other words: law.
For example, Huang Chao and others in the late Tang Dynasty did not offend everyone to death at once, not even the Yuan Dynasty, which lasted the shortest time and had the most chaotic and tyrannical rule.
Sure enough, everything in the world exists and must have its own rules.
And this law is to govern people.
Li Ke's astonishment and surprise surprised Li Shimin.
Then Li Shimin asked: "Why are you surprised by this question? Don't all the things you did before prove that you have seen through these things a long time ago?"
Li Ke didn't know how to answer at the time, but fortunately Li Shimin just asked casually.
Then Li Shimin said directly: "This is an established fact that no emperor has dared to admit before. In this case, I will be the first one. I am just telling the facts. There is nothing I cannot accept." of."
At that time, Li Ke was a little impressed. He was indeed the famous Tang Taizong in history. It seemed like a very simple thing: just telling the facts.
But how many people can’t do it? ! Too many.
That's why this sentence appeared in the new "Fundamental Code of the Tang Dynasty" and became the first sentence.
The latter resolution means that reforms have been formed before, but the policies that have become law have not yet been implemented.
For example, the responsibilities of the three provinces of Shangshu, Menxia, and Zhongshu are more clear, including which people and departments are responsible for which things.
For example, as Li Ke proposed, Tang Dynasty officials and their immediate family members were not allowed to engage in business, and all property and sources of income needed to be registered and reported.
This article also formed a law.
Of course, there are many loopholes in this, because the provisions for immediate family members are only parents, wives, concubines, children, and grandchildren.
As for wealthy families, there are too many ways to deal with this kind of loopholes. In fact, the reason why this article is vague and full of loopholes is Li Ke's intention.
It's very simple. As I said before, first solve the problem from scratch.
Let it be included in the terms first. As long as there is follow-up, you will have the opportunity to complete it. But if you don’t have it, then if you want it to have it, the price you need to pay will be bigger and bigger later!
Because the huge profits of Datang's business cannot yet be seen, in the future, the resistance can be imagined.
So, set it up first.
You cannot do business, but there is no rule that you cannot pay dividends, and the source of income only needs to be reported. In other words, after becoming an official, it is normal for you to have several companies under your name to share dividends.
Who knows why this business suddenly started to make money in the future?
Others, such as the improvement of the status of military personnel and the relaxation of laws on people's free circulation, are also relaxed. In addition, the Tang Dynasty officially revoked the term "unregistered households". From then on, there was no such term as "unregistered households" in the Tang Dynasty.
All personnel who were previously unregistered households must sign an employment contract, including those in the palace.
To be honest, Li Ke once again felt the courage of his father and the courage of Tian Khan.
Li Shimin not only directly ordered people to sign long-term employment contracts with all the palace maids and eunuchs, but also allowed them to marry and take wives. There is nothing the eunuch can do, but it is estimated that Datang may not have new eunuchs in the future.
But eunuchs... will be voluntary in the future. If you want to become a eunuch voluntarily, that's fine, but there will be no force. Although it seems that this position has always been "voluntary" since ancient times.
Li Ke was not sure why Li Shimin was so ruthless, but what he knew was that not only did Li Shimin do this, he even released some of the talented people, Baolin, Yunv, and Cainv who he had not yet had a chance to be lucky with. .
Only a total of 17 women with whom he had relationships remained.
Li Ke was a little shocked. His father was so cruel to him, and looking at Li Shimin's behavior, he probably wouldn't be doing anything like choosing a concubine in the future.
So what should you do if your dad is "tired"?
Could it be that... Li Ke had a strange idea in his mind, that the emperor visited a brothel? It's...not impossible.
After all, there were many emperors in the Song Dynasty who played this way in history.
Think about it...it makes sense. After all, you said that the emperor has so many concubines, but there are actually only a few who have feelings. Most of them have no feelings, and many of them are impulsive.
Since it is an impulse... why not act outside?
