He was born in a maritime businessman. You know, the system of the empire comes from the age of the community, and the participation of the veterans' shares......" Li Jundu gave a typical 'butt determines the head' answer, but Huang Zongxi did not let him finish it and directly refuted: "But now that His Majesty has ascended the throne and become emperor, he still has power and gives power."

This is also an important fact. There are two most representative times. The first is that the emperor lives in the capital, and the cabinet is in Nanjing, the temporary capital. The cabinet is in charge of the imperial domestic and foreign affairs. In addition to major policies and some important affairs, all government affairs are decided by the cabinet, and only the emperor needs to report to the emperor.

The second is that after Lee Myung-hoon became emperor, he formally determined that the Senate and the National Assembly jointly formed the Congress. Among the three major powers of legislation, supervision and fiscal review, the House of Representatives involved, among which the authority has the least authority over fiscal review, but he has the greatest legislative power. Only laws involving imperial nobles, army, and vassal affairs require the consent of the Senate. Before Lee Myung-hoon became emperor, the greatest authority of the House of Representatives was the power of supervision, which could not be reviewed at all. All laws passed by the House of Representatives must be agreed upon before the Senate could be implemented. At that time, the National Assembly was more like a subordinate agency of the Senate. Obviously, Lee Myung-hoon's imperial proclaim not only did not weaken civil rights, but instead enhanced the authority of the middle and lower classes represented by the members in the center of the empire.

Li Jundu was speechless for a moment. He was not without an answer, but he was just unwilling to say it, because in his opinion, the reason why his father's authority was moved downward was mainly to compromise. The purpose was to better all ethnic groups and regions of the empire and unite all classes of the empire. This was just a temporary necessity. However, this time when he returned to the capital for a wedding, Li Jundu re-understood his father and found that it was completely different from his impression. Those powers were deliberately separated by him and there was no intention of taking them back. Instead, he used laws and systems to determine the ownership of power, and was not prepared to change it easily.

"The father established a constitution on behalf of heaven and cared for the people, so he had such good governance. It was not something that the saints of the world could understand." After a while of silence, Li Jundu smiled bitterly.

When Huang Zongxi saw him beat him, he laughed: "It is true that the emperor is a saint of the world, but the reason why His Majesty still decentralizes power after he became emperor is as His Highness said just now, his butt determines his head."

"Then I'm going to ask Master Huang for advice." Li Jundu asked with his fists.

Huang Zongxi said: "Since ancient times, the dynasty changed, there were three things needed: wealth, people, and names! The founding emperors of all dynasties, as an example in the Ming Dynasty, the wealth required by the Ming Emperor Taizu took over agriculture, and was called the money and grain collected by farmers, but in fact it was raised by the gentry. The generals and ministers in the court were either old people in Huaixi or scholars. The orthodox also came from the support of the literati. The Ming Emperor founded the world and most of the needs came from the gentry class, so naturally they ruled the world with them. The former Ming emperor did not go to the countryside. That's why the Ming Emperor was his great emperor in the capital, and the gentry was his little emperor in the village.

Nowadays, the empire was established and expelled the Tartars. Where did the military funds come from? One was the national debt and two were taxes. The empire was more than 20 years old, and most of them were developed overseas. The peasants were levied very little. The main tax was the income from industry and commerce, and the national debt was mainly purchased by industrial and commercial practitioners. All officials of the imperial court and the generals and assistants used in the army were taken from the school. Those who could enter the school also had assets, so the people used by the emperor also came from the industrial and commercial masters. Not to mention the orthodox empire, because the industrial and commercial masters did not want to be restored again in the previous Ming Dynasty, so they supported the emperor to establish a new dynasty and thought it was orthodox.

As the emperor, the industrial and commercial masters contributed a lot, so they naturally had to separate their power. However, the industrial and commercial masters were different from the literati and the officials. Their assets were mainly not land and they had no personal dependence. Compared with politics, they prefer business, so that the Houses at all levels allowed them to participate in politics.

In this way, it is also a butt that determines the head. If the business owners are rich and powerful, they will naturally gain authority. However, unlike previous dynasties, today's saints are now giving them the power without waiting for them to ask for authority."

Li Jundu nodded slightly, feeling more and more that what Huang Zongxi said was reasonable, while Huang Zongxi said: "At this point, I can also answer another question for Your Highness. Just now, Your Highness asked me why I criticized the power of the monarch and supported the power of the people. Because of the rise and fall of the world, every man is responsible. China has been in dozens of dynasties. Whenever dynasties change, the imperial power is strengthening. It has reached an unprecedented level when the Ming Dynasty has reached a state of unprecedented decline, but there are still Jiashen national disasters and the Tartars entered the pass. At the end of the dynasty, I saw corruption, chaos and inefficiency, so I hope that the imperial power will be restricted."

"Like Master Huang said this..." Li Junduo said casually after hearing this, but when the words he wanted to say were a little inappropriate, he quickly smiled and shut up.

Huang Zongxi could not guess what he was going to say, and said bluntly: "Indeed, if I did not see the decline of the previous Ming Dynasty, I would not have these thoughts anymore. If I am poor, I would think of change, and if I am confused, I would think of change. That's all."

The two chatted, and as the sky was getting darker, Li Jundu took advantage of the situation to keep Huang Zongxi for dinner in the mansion. The dinner was not a show, just an ordinary family dinner, and there were no guests to accompany him. Even Li Jundu came to pour the wine in person. Huang Zongxi was amazed at it. He heard that Li Jundu said that it was the same when he was in the capital, and he believed in the rumors that the royal family was not clichéd.

After three rounds of drinking, Li Jundu put down his chopsticks and asked, "Master Huang, today I welcome you. You are considered to have officially performed your duties as a bachelor's degree. But I don't know what Master Huang wants to teach. Please tell me one or two, so that students can review one or two, so as not to be ashamed when Master Huang talks, and students are ignorant."

This problem stumped Huang Zongxi. He, a bachelor of attendance, was not really a lecture. If he talked about it, according to his understanding, it should be based on the art of emperors, but this cannot be said bluntly. However, what Li Hai said on that day that day, when he asked him to explain his works, Huang Zongxi thought it was inappropriate. Although his works were very forward-looking, they were just written. The system of the empire has been formed. One is the idea and the other is the fact. Which one should be used as the basis?

Huang Zongxi didn't know, but Li Jundu was just trying it out. Seeing that Huang Zongxi couldn't say anything, he said, "If Master Huang is not prepared, you can settle down first and come to teach at any time after you have thought about it. Students will wait."

The final result was exactly this. Li Jundu found a clean courtyard around the royal palace as Huang Zongxi's residence. All the food and daily life were arranged by the royal palace, and the treatment was extremely generous. Huang Zongxi could not find anything wrong. He carefully sorted out the lesson plan and prepared lessons carefully. He prepared for half a month to teach the class, but he encountered a few times when he went there. The reason was very simple. Li Jundu had no time to listen to the class.

Originally, he thought that Li Jundu was perfunctory, so Huang Zongxi simply waited in the royal palace for several days, but he saw that most of the military generals and staff were in the royal palace, and administrative officials from the southwest provinces also arrived. Li Jundu was so busy that he was not touching the ground. Huang Zongxi saw it and was no longer in a hurry to teach. Instead, he was like an ordinary staff member, watching the military opportunity meeting chaired by the King of England to understand his students and the politics of the empire.

Li Jundu did encounter difficulties, and the biggest difficulty was that his plans and opinions could not be obtained from the center of the empire, especially the empire emperor.

Li Jundu's identity changed from commander of the Southwest War Zone to a Southwest Vocational Strategy, not only because of the narrowing of jurisdiction, but also because of the constraints of his power. He was re-sent to the southwest with the purpose of taking the opportunity to deal with the chieftains in the southwest, but the chieftains are no longer the same as before. In the era of the Southwest War Zone, the chieftains in the southwest were either enemies or fencemen. Li Jundu had completely free power to characterize them, and they could determine their destiny by their own judgment. But now it is different. After experiencing the rebellion in the southwest, the chieftains who survived have accepted the reward of the imperial title and become the imperial nobles. No matter what Li Jundu wanted to do to them, they must be supported by the center.

In the afternoon, Huang Zongxi came to Li Jundu's small study and saw him pinching his forehead and sighing. He saw a document on the desk. Huang Zongxi guessed the probation and asked, "Does the emperor still not allow His Highness the plan?"

Li Jundu sighed: "I have called back three times, and this time I didn't even have an instruction, but I just rejected it as it is."

"What should you do if Your Highness wants to do?" Huang Zongxi asked.

Li Jundu said: "I can only discuss with the staff again, change the list, and use less weapons."

Huang Zongxi did not give any face at all and said bluntly: "If this is the case, I'm afraid it will be rejected for the fourth time."

Li Jundu sighed again, feeling depressed, because he did this a few times before, and the list of things to be cleaned up was getting smaller and smaller, but he still had no intention of agreeing. He shook his head helplessly and said, "Even Master Huang said this. It seems that he couldn't be sure of it before the New Year. It would be better to relax and celebrate the New Year first. At worst, he could give his father a letter of greetings during the New Year, and ask him to directly set a charter. As a son of man, I will follow my fate, that's it."

"I think this is not a question of whether the charter or not. The emperor repeatedly rejected His Highness's plan, which shows that you were wrong in terms of intention, oh, that is, the principle issue you often talk about." Huang Zongxi said lightly.

A light flashed across Li Jundu's eyes. He looked at Huang Zongxi and saw that he was confident and seemed to have his own opinions. So he quickly asked for advice: "What are the great ideas of Master Huang?"

Huang Zongxi asked: "If the new policy of the empire is changed, what is the new policy of the most popular person?"

Li Jundu shook his head slightly, and Huang Zongxi said, "What is most popular is the rule of law of the empire. There are many laws in the empire and extremely strict. From the emperor to the people, everyone follows. Moreover, no matter what the empire's policies come from the emperor, the cabinet, and the rural officials, they must comply with the law before they can be implemented. If they are not comply with the law, they will not be effective. I ask, can those plans of Your Highness comply with the law and have laws to follow?"

After hearing this, Li Junduo said frankly. Huang Zongxi said bluntly: "I have been observing His Highness's governance and vassal affairs these days. I only ask whether it is in the interests of the empire, not whether it is legal. There is only power and tricks in your plan, but it cannot be governed. I think this is the reason why the emperor refused."

"Then Master Huang thought, how can it be legal?" Li Jundu asked in an interest.

Huang Zongxi said: "I think that the joints are not about how your highness's plan can be legal, but about how to make those chieftains violate the law. If they violate the law, then there is a law to follow in everything you do."

Li Jundu repeated Huang Zongxi's words several times in his mind, and felt more and more reasonable. When he thought about it, he felt it was difficult to operate. He knew very well that after dynasties, he realized that the strong chieftains of the empire were now very obedient and could not retreat one by one, for fear of causing trouble. It was difficult to find fault with them, and the details did not solve the problem at all. What's more, the empire gave the southwest chieftain three years to adapt, so he could not do anything for three years.

"If you want them to violate the law, you must establish a law that they do not abide by. If you lose power, you will lose your power. If you violate it, you will be killed. In this way, you will have explanations for both internal and external, upper and lower levels." Huang Zongxi reminded.

"Then what is the law that is not followed?" Li Jundu asked.

Huang Zongxi said: "According to the law of the imperial nobles, nobles of third-class Count and above must live in the capital for a long time. Since there is such a precedent, why not give up the right to the right? For example, nobles below the Count must live in the provincial capital, the prefecture, or the city designated by the Senate. As long as there is such a regulation, those chiefs living in the mountains must go down the mountain to gather in the city. The lord and the servants and the upper and lower levels will be able to do their best in the vassal affairs. If the chiefs refuse to accept it, they will violate the law and system. Wouldn't your highness become famous? And how could the emperor, the cabinet and the parliament cover up the illegal chiefs?"

"A clever plan!" Li Junduo praised repeatedly, stood up and bowed three times, and said, "Students don't know that Master is very talented and offended many times, so please punish him."

This apology is not false. Li Jundu was actually resistant to the emperor's arrangement for himself. The master was a scholar-official. He had seen him that day, and he heard that he had dissatisfaction with the new and old policies. He was superficial and had no practical purpose. He just thought that Huang Zongxi was just a boastful person, so he did not pay much attention. It was just that due to the emperor's order, the master invited by the Prime Minister only made people pay attention to it and served him well. When he saw it today, he didn't know that Huang Zongxi was also proficient in practice.
