Zhao Huan's words once again made everyone feel shocked, because they were not unaware of this proposal before, but it was not the only option.
"I have discussed many methods with many dear friends before, and I have also expressed the idea of using the county and state capital. After all, this situation is the most suitable for our situation in the Song Dynasty, and there is no need to go to war.
But I thought about it and decided to give up. I need everyone in the Song Dynasty to learn from it.
There is a county magistrate in a county and two subordinate officials. The county magistrate assists the magistrate in managing county affairs, and the bookkeeper is in charge of the county's grain tax and household registration.
Later, all Cao Yamen servants were established as minor officials directly under the county magistrate. They had no official positions, and their salaries were borne by the court to prevent the county magistrate from having too much power.
Previously, we wanted to increase the power of the state capital and establish a state directly under the imperial court, at the same level as the Fulu Road, while the ordinary state was under the Guizhou Fulu Road and on the same level as the county.
The officials subordinate to Zhizhou include Tongzhi and Tongfen, who are in charge of finance, criminal law, public security, etc. respectively.
In the Sui Dynasty, Yang Jian abolished the post of county governor to prevent the county governor from having too much power and conflicting with the governor. Now we plan to change it and temporarily restore the control of the state governor and counties.
In the early days of the Han Dynasty, the governor of a state had 800 shi, and the prefect of a county had 2,000 shi, but the two sides were not under each other.
The governor of the state was under the imperial censor and had the power of supervision, while the prefect of the county was directly under the emperor and had the power to govern the place and the military, and even had the power to appoint from below.
The power of the county governor was too great, which made the court unstable.
So Yang Jian abolished the county guard back then, but now I feel that this is not necessary.
It is enough to slightly increase the status of the governor and temporarily transfer the military power to the governor's office of the five armies. Then lower the salary level of the county guard and make the county guard under the jurisdiction of the governor.
At the same time, the county will be included in the county to reduce the time of document circulation. "
After Zhao Huan finished speaking, everyone was a little hesitant because of his sudden change of tone, but this was indeed a solution.
Previously, the world was divided into more than a hundred states, which were analogous to counties, and then some of them were assigned to the imperial court, and some were assigned to local governments, and then various prefectures were established.
At the same time, the prefectures and prefectures did not belong to each other. Some of the second-class scattered prefectures were merged into the prefectures, similar to counties. Most of the prefectures were also under the jurisdiction of the imperial court.
In this way, the place is balanced, but the circulation of documents is still very long. After all, everything now needs to be done by horses.
Once war breaks out, many problems will require a soldier's speed and no delay, and many places are no longer easy to solve at this speed.
If it is completely liberalized, it will be difficult for local separatism to emerge. If it is not liberalized, the war will definitely be at a loss.
Don't underestimate the desires of the human heart, nor the intelligence of your enemies.
And what Zhao Huan is doing now cannot be the method of his ancestors. This is a wartime excess!
All issues are dealt with according to the wartime. Once the wartime changes, then this set of rules must be changed immediately, otherwise the example of the death of the second generation of the Qin Dynasty will happen to him exactly.
Li Gang and Zhao Ding opened and closed their mouths, but in the end they were unable to speak, while Yu Wenxuzhong on the other side frowned, looking like he was constipated.
"Everyone, if you have anything to say, just say it directly. Don't act like I'm making it impossible for you to shit!"
"Ahem... Your Majesty is so noble that you cannot..."
"Shut up, I have a headache recently!"
"..."
After Zhao Huan made such a joke, everyone relaxed a little, and then Li Gang dared to stand up.
"Your Majesty thinks that it is a good decision to make such a decision. We, the Song Dynasty, should naturally know our shame and then be brave, regain the lost territory and rebuild China.
But if Your Majesty does this, local finances, personnel appointments and dismissals, and prison matters...will all be temporarily returned to the local government? "
"You have no choice but to pay back during the war!"
“But now that peace talks are on the way, if all these rights are returned to the local governments, then the local rights will be a bit too great.
And I don’t know when this war will end, so I should not say anything.
If this war lasts for three to five years, it will be over. If it lasts for ten or eight years, the Fifth Army Commandery Office will not be abolished by then, and the power of this place will gradually increase. If the two sides unite..."
"Your Majesty, don't underestimate the human heart!"
At this time, Zhao Ding couldn't help but stand up. He is a famous official in politics. In terms of general strategy and people's livelihood governance, he can be said to be the best here without any suspense.
But he also needs to admit that the dangers here are too great.
"Your Majesty, once some willing people are allowed to unite some generals from the local and five-army governor's offices, it is possible to hide an elite force of more than 10,000 people.
Once a problem arises, I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to resolve it quickly.
It is better to use the methods of counties and state governments to restrain the three parties from each other and give them some rights, which can also alleviate local pressure. "
“The Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Household Affairs can jointly inspect the fields, measure the land, count the population, and then divide the land again, and at the same time divide the prefectures and counties, and set annual quotas.
Half of it will be returned to the court, and the other half will be used locally. This may also give the people of the Song Dynasty some breathing space. "
The three veterans objected at the same time. They also knew how important Zhao Huan's idea was to the current court and how reasonable it was for the war situation.
But they also know that if there are people with evil intentions, there will be many loopholes in the article.
The objections of several people did not make Zhao Huan choose to agree this time, but instead strengthened his own ideas.
"There is no need to change this matter. The local system operates this way. If there are any problems in the future, I will wait to discuss the matter.
As the saying goes, things have priorities, and everything is now focused on war! "
"....My lord, I obey your order!"
When everyone knew that the tribe had been changed, they bowed one by one to accept the order.
After that, Zhao Huan added the last department.
"Abolish the Admonition Court, retain only the Yushitai, and establish the Metropolitan Procuratorate!
The Imperial Procuratorate is directly under the imperial court, located below the censor's platform.
Under the Metropolitan Procuratorate are the censors of the capital of the second rank, the censors of the capital, the censors of the deputy capital of the third rank, and the censors of the capital of the fourth rank.
There are various censors in the Yushitai, one in each state, and ten people in each county, who are responsible for inspecting each county in the county!
In each case, there is one censor Zhongcheng who is of the fifth rank, and ten censors who are the sixth rank, who are only responsible for supervising impeachment.
The Imperial Court is headed by the Censor of the Left Capital and assisted by the Censor of the Right Capital. In addition to supervising the court, it also monitors my every word and deed. The first Censor of the Left Capital was handed over to... Li Xiang Bar! "
Unexpectedly, this position was handed over to Li Gang, who was in a high position and was not afraid of offending others. At the same time, he was given the false position of Tai Tu, elevating his position.
There is no doubt that the censor of Youdu is Li Guang, who Zhao Huan said had something wrong with him.
There is no doubt that Zhao Ding, the Minister of the Ministry of Finance, has no doubts about this, and there is no doubt that Yu Wenxuzhong, the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, has been appointed as the Minister of the Ministry of War by Lu Yihao, who is about to leave the General's Mansion in Tiance.
There is no problem with these, and Lu Yihao's qualifications are indeed sufficient.
But in the next few positions, he opened everyone's eyes.
"The Minister of Punishment is... Hu Quan, Editor of the Privy Council!" This was the first name, and it was also a name that surprised everyone.
Everyone is really familiar with this person. After all, the status of the Privy Council is here. Not to mention that he is an editor, he is a petty official and is the first-class in this capital.
And this editor is no ordinary clerk, he is a serious Privy Council official.
But no matter what, he was directly promoted to Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice, he was great!
"Your Majesty, does this person have some..."
"Except for you and Lu Gong, the others are not incompetent. The main reason is that I really can't do anything. Chen Dong is good, but he is only serving as the local censor Zhongcheng. No matter how high he is, it depends on his future. ability.
As for Zhang Jun being the Minister of Rites and in charge of the affairs of the Ministry of Rites, after all, there are three of the five temples under the Ministry of Rites. If he does not find someone with deep prestige, he may not be able to suppress him.
As for military affairs... tell Zhang Jun that he should stay away from the military camp in the future and avoid shopping malls and supermarkets no matter where he goes! "
When he said this, Zhao Huan wanted to scold his mother. In history, Zhang Jun was famous for being the main battler, but he had mixed reputations and reputations.
Among them, apart from Qin Hui and Yue Fei's original decision, the biggest problem is this guy's war, which is simply cheating.
He has been defeated in every battle, and he especially likes to go into the army. Do you want to prove yourself all at once?
When he first attacked Yang Yao, he led an army to try it out. As a result, when the autumn wind swept away the fallen leaves, he almost let someone break into the middle army!
A group of thieves were put in place to suppress the local rebellion, but it was Yao Pingzhong who brought 300 people over to help him regain his place.
The same soldiers and horses, the same army, ten thousand people defeated the rebellion and were defeated all the way. This record... Damn it!
"Minister of Industry, old rules!"
Before Li Gang and others could react, the position of the last minister had already been decided.
He turned flying fire into a musket. In terms of status, he was indeed lacking, but in terms of ability, he was unique in the Song Dynasty!
It's just that he's a little too young.
"Your Majesty, I have objections!" Li Gang seemed to have started to get into the mood, "These three people are really messing around."
"The three of them are capable enough."
"But the reputation is not enough!" Li Gang seemed to have gotten angry, and he looked at Zhao Huan and started blowing his beard and staring, "After all, they do not have such authority as His Majesty.
In the future, they will have to deal with many officials below and weigh all sides.
There is no one-spoken court in this court, and it is even less possible for one-spoken court in this yamen.
If they cannot convince the public, problems will inevitably arise in the future.
Zhang Jun was the only one with enough fame, but Zhang Jun had just had problems in suppressing the rebellion. At this time, he was asked to directly rise to serve as the Minister of Rites and wield such great power.
This is not possible! "
"The imperial examination is about to begin, and Zhang Jun is taking the lead..."
"...."
