Chapter 47 The two houses and three remonstrations are here!

The Secretariat of the Secretariat has pine and cypresses, and the century-long time has left traces here, and the majesty of the empire is demonstrated from every grass and tree.

The Political Affairs Hall is located in the middle of the Secretariat, with five cottages behind it, one is the official room, two is the cardinal room, three is the military room, four is the household room, and five is the criminal ritual room, which handle various political affairs separately.

There is a conference hall on the side, the largest of which is the address of today's hearing.

Sima Guang, Fan Chunren, Lu Hui, Fan Chunren, Lu Dafang, Zhao Ding, Zhao Zhan, Fu Yaoyu and others represent that all the officials of the Censorate have arrived.

——There were not many people in the Censorate.

Sima Guang and others came early, but when they entered, they saw Ouyang Bian already present. Ouyang Bian smiled friendlyly with them, but Sima Guang and others just thought they didn't see it.

Ouyang Bian was quite depressed.

Sima Guang smiled darkly.

He looked at the venue, and the layout of the venue was quite interesting. A huge oval wooden table occupied most of the conference hall, and there was a raised table at the end, which should be used for speeches.

Sima Guang and the other two found their names and sat down. After sitting down, they only occupied a small corner of the table.

There is a small wooden sign on each seat, which reads their official position name and mission.

Sima Guangan'an muttered: "It's pretty good."

Subsequently, officials from the Political Affairs Hall attended, officials from the Three Divisions attended, and officials from the Privy Council attended, ranging from four or five to one or two.

The huge round table gradually filled up, leaving only the upper head seat empty. Sima Guang knew that it was left for the husband of the Zhengshi Hall, the planner and the Privy Councilor.

Sure enough, after a while, Wen Yanbo, Ouyang Xiu, Zhao Jiao, Xu Gongliang, Zhang Fangping, Fu Bi and others came together and sat down one after another according to the wooden sign.

Sima Guang and others came to find fault today, and they all had their faces tense. When they saw their husbands, they just stood up and gave their hands, even if they had seen the ceremony.

However, Ouyang Bian ran around and called for a seat, greeted him to have tea, distributed hearing meeting materials, etc.

Sima Guang also received the conference information, so he ignored other matters because his eyes were attracted into the information.

There are a lot of information, and the top page is named "Interim Provisions on Qingzhangtianmu (Draft for Comments)".

"...Article 1: Since the establishment of the Song Dynasty, the management of land mu in the world has been chaotic and the tax payment is unclear. In order to standardize the management of land mu and tax, this regulation is specially formulated according to the "Jiayou Edict", referring to the "Continued Orders and Imperials", as well as opinions from all parties, and in combination with the specific circumstances of our dynasty, this regulation is specially formulated.

Article 2,…”

The regulations are written in vernacular, but the words are rigorous, as if they are afraid of any ambiguity, and every important noun involved must be explained.

Each opinion will be indicated below - which department came up with it, and how many revisions have been made, all of which are attached to the back.

The whole explanation simply describes the past and present of a policy.

Sima Guang became more and more shocked the more he looked at it.

He did not expect that the formulation of a policy could be so rigorous.

The policy from clearing the land mu of Zhangzhang was proposed, including planning, evaluation, decision-making, designing implementation plans, implementation practices to completing the evaluation policy.

Moreover, the meticulous arguments really make people wonder how to refute them.

Sima Guang's eyes met Lu Hui and Fan Chunren, and they were surprised in each other's eyes, but in an instant, they hid their minds again.

But what they didn't know was that Ouyang Bian lowered his head and secretly observed their expressions with the help of a teacup. This surprise happened to be captured by him.

Ouyang Bian smiled softly.

Everyone has arrived, Ouyang Bian cleared his throat: "The hearing is about to begin. Please strictly abide by the hearing discipline in the next process..."

Wen Yanbo raised his hand.

Ouyang Bian was a little surprised: "Wen Xiang, you said."

Wen Yanbo smiled and said, "Wait a little, Your Majesty hasn't arrived yet."

Ouyang Bian was immediately surprised: "Your Majesty is coming?"

Wen Yanbo nodded and was about to speak, when a large group of people outside approached, a clear young man's voice sounded: "I'm here!"

Zhao Xu's handsome face appeared at the door with a vigorous look, and the sound of the stool being moved suddenly rang out.

"Hello, your Majesty!"

"Your Majesty, you are here!"

“…”

Zhao Xu waved his hand quickly: "Everyone is sitting down, I'm here uninvited today. I'm here to listen today, with only ears and no mouths. Just think I'm not here."

Wen Yanbo smiled and said, "Please take your seat."

Zhao Xu nodded with a smile, and the board staff quickly brought a chair for Zhao Xu, and Zhao Xu sat down on one side.

Wen Yanbo and Ouyang Bian nodded.

Ouyang Bian smiled and said, "The specifications of this hearing have been raised today. Not only are the two governments and three sermons present all, but even His Majesty has arrived. How lucky is he to have come!"

Everyone laughed.

Ouyang Bian's eyes were surrounded by: "Everyone, the hearing officially begins next. Please look at the flowchart on the left and right sides. Our hearing is divided into three processes: introduction, questioning and voting.

The staff of the Second Government and the Third Division present had attended the hearing and had some understanding of the discipline of the hearing.

But because my colleagues in the Censorate didn't know it yet, I will announce the discipline of the hearing next.

The discipline of the hearing must be followed. If the discipline is violated continuously, I will expel him according to the discipline. Please pay attention."

Ouyang Bian looked at everyone's expressions, especially Sima Guang and others from the Censorate. Seeing that they had no objection, he said, "The introduction session was read by Lu Huiqing from the working group. No one present at this session is allowed to speak.

In the second part, you can ask questions, but you need to explain them one by one, and our working group will also answer them on-site.

The discipline here is that only one person can speak at a time. Before a person finishes his speech, no one else should interrupt others. If he does not listen to the warning twice, he will be expelled the third time. Do you understand?"

Sima Guang and others nodded.

Ouyang Bian nodded with satisfaction: "Then please ask Lu Huiqing to give a detailed introduction to the interim regulations on clearing the land mu of Zhangzhang. I remind you again that this link can only be heard but not said. If you have any questions, you can record them and concentrate on the questioning session to answer them later."

After saying that, Ouyang Bian nodded at Lu Huiqing, Lu Huiqing took a deep breath, raised his head and strode towards the rostrum.

Lu Huiqing walked to the rostrum, forced herself to suppress the excitement in her heart, and tried to make her words look calm and confident.
