Chapter 1235 Fishing

"Your Majesty, do you really want to do this?"

In the imperial study room, Jiang Shang was very embarrassed, with a tired look on his face.

The ministers stood up to object. Although Ouyang Shuo was surprised, he didn't panic. The first person he found was Jiang Shang, the chief assistant of the cabinet. He hoped that Jiang Shang would come forward and take the lead to suppress this wave.

It's not that Ouyang Shuo didn't take responsibility, he would act like a tortoise and let the ministers charge forward when something happened. In fact, with Ouyang Shuo's prestige in the government and the public, he could completely suppress this turmoil by himself.

But if they did that, the ministers would only speak orally, and they would not accept it.

In the future, when the Supreme Court of Daxia exercises its powers, it will inevitably encounter open or covert obstacles from all parties, and it will not be able to establish judicial authority at all.

This is not what Ouyang Shuo wanted.

Moreover, as an emperor, it would be too unseemly for Ouyang Shuo to confront the ministers directly and argue with each other. A truly brilliant emperor is to use ministers against ministers to achieve political intentions.

Jiang Shang is undoubtedly the right candidate.

In addition to saying that Jiang Shang, as the chief assistant of the cabinet and the master of hundreds of schools, has a high prestige both in the circle of historical talents and in the Daxia civil official group, what is more important is that Jiang Shang has already manifested as a homo sapiens.

That is, Homo sapiens, the whole thinking is naturally very different.

Jiang Shang too understands why His Majesty wants to set up the Daxia Supreme Court, and he himself supports it. But this situation, those ministers who have not realized it will not understand.

In order not to cause shocks in the game world, Gaia stipulates that before the NPC is realized, other NPCs cannot access the information of the real world, let alone understand the big environment of interstellar immigration.

Misunderstandings are inevitable.

As a result, Jiang Shang became a bridge between His Majesty and ministers, and also a mediator.

This is one of the duties of the prime minister.

If it was left at another time, Jiang Shang would be happy to take on such an errand to expand his influence in the officialdom, but this matter is really extraordinary, it is the cake of the entire civil official group that is moving, and the pressure is like a mountain.

Even with Jiang Shangzhi's ability, he couldn't bear it.

Ouyang Shuo heard that during the Spring Festival, more than a dozen ministers rushed to Jiang Shang's mansion at the same time to visit and questioned why the chief minister agreed to establish the Daxia Supreme Court.

For this reason, there was a lot of unhappiness between each other.

If it weren't for Zhang Liang, Jia Xu and other manifested ministers mediating from them, Jiang Shang would have stood on the opposite side of the entire civil official group at this time.

This is the first time that such a big disagreement has appeared within the Daxia Group.

As time went by, the aftermath of this incident gradually spread from the capital to the local provinces, which caused quite a stir in the provinces.

Daxia's officialdom trembled.

During the whole process, Ouyang Shuo sat firmly on the Diaoyutai, just in need of such an opportunity, to observe these ministers carefully, to see which ones are worth realizing and which ones are stubborn and unbearable.

With the unstoppable momentum of Daxia's unification of China, the five thousand years of historical talents in China were almost wiped out by Daxia.

When the forest grows large, fish and dragons will naturally be mixed with mud and sand.

The undercurrents during the Spring Festival, up to the imperial court, down to the counties, were all recorded by Shanhaiwei secret agents, one by one before Ouyang Shuo's case.

Among the officials of the capital, the most troubled one was Pei Yun, Director of Civil Affairs. It was under Pei Yun's help that more than a dozen ministers "forced the palace" into the residence of the chief minister of the cabinet.

To be honest, Ouyang Shuo was really disappointed by the performance of one of the giants of the Pei family. In addition, Ouyang Shuo also had some bad impressions of the powers in the DPRK and China.

After all, the powerful family still cares too much about the interests of the family.

But in the local area, the commotion was even more serious, especially those officials who were newly recruited to Daxia, they almost jumped out to scold their mothers, they dared not point the finger at Ouyang Shuo, the emperor, and took Jiang Shang as a target to vent their anger.

During the Spring Festival rest period, Ouyang Shuo actually received more than sixty impeachment memorials against Jiang Shang. Ouyang Shuo was so angry that he wanted to behead all these guys.

In the end, Ouyang Shuo endured it.

Ouyang Shuo wanted to continue to observe calmly. He knew that not all the fish jumped out now, there must be more and bigger fish lurking under the water surface.

What Ouyang Shuo needs is patience.

During half a month of rest, the government and the public were really lively.

What made Ouyang Shuo more gratified was that those ministers who were not manifested were not all those who opposed it. Generally speaking, those who supported, or at least did not oppose, the establishment of the Great Xia Supreme Court could be divided into three categories.

The first category is generals.

This is what made Ouyang Shuo most gratified. During the whole process, Ouyang Shuo didn't even instruct Bai Qi to come forward. The entire generals group lost their voices collectively, abided by their duties, and did not intervene in this big turmoil.

Having such an army is truly a blessing to Great Xia, and a blessing to Ouyang Shuo.

Ouyang Shuo has always adhered to the principle of separation of military and government, and the principle that the military must not interfere in politics, withstood the test in this turmoil and bore the fruits of victory.

The second category is the old ministers of the dynasty.

The aboriginal civil officials represented by Gu Xiuwen and Zhou Haichen, as well as the early civil officials headed by Tian Wenjing and Fan Zhongyan, all unconditionally supported the court's decision this time.

This also pleased Ouyang Shuo.

They did this because firstly, they were most loyal to Ouyang Shuo and they were the true direct descendants; secondly, because they had been with Ouyang Shuo and had been influenced by Ouyang Shuo, their thinking was more open-minded.

The third category is the real people with lofty ideals.

Not only did they not oppose it, but they even firmly supported the imperial court and supported certain restrictions on imperial power. Zeng Guofan, Wei Zheng, Di Renjie and others are the representatives among them.

What surprised Ouyang Shuo the most, and also the least, was that Minister of the Interior, Wei Yang, firmly supported the court's establishment of the Great Xia Supreme Court.

You know, once the Supreme Court of Daxia is established, the most influential one will be the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

Ouyang Shuo was really relieved that Wei Yang could evaluate this matter objectively from the perspective of the rule of law, regardless of personal gains and losses, and felt that he was right.

A legalist giant is a legalist giant.

…………

After the court opened the Yamen, the turmoil has not subsided.

Ouyang Shuo was not prepared to wait any longer. This time, he not only wanted to set up the Daxia Supreme Court, but also took this opportunity to clean the Daxia officialdom from top to bottom.

Jiang Shang was very embarrassed when he learned about it.

Seeing this, Ouyang Shuo said with relief: "Master Ge, if I have enough time, I don't want to use such a thunderbolt method, but it's been seven years since Gaia, time is of the essence."

Of course Ouyang Shuo was in a hurry.

In just three or four years in the future, Great Xia will not only continue to expand its borders, smash the Silver Hand and the Azure Badge, but also complete its internal transformation before reaching the planet of hope.

No matter which one, it is a tricky thing, can you not be in a hurry? !

"I understand!" Jiang Shang nodded with emotion, knowing His Majesty's difficulty, he said resolutely: "Please rest assured, Your Majesty, I will do my best to mediate this turmoil."

"Hard work is getting old."

Looking at Jiang Shang's silver hair, Ouyang Shuo was also full of emotion.

However, any reform cannot always be smooth sailing, and it will always face various storms and challenges.

"It is the blessing of this humble minister to be able to share the worries for His Majesty."

Ouyang Shuo sighed, waved his hands, and said, "The dynasty was so smooth before, so I should change my life, otherwise, it will be a disaster after all."

Jiang Shang was silent.
