When the weather is right, the flood has been cured.
Zhu Jun went to Fengyang and regulated the Huaihe River and the Yangtze River. During the flood season, not many places were affected.
This means that in the next few years, the cause will develop steadily.
The location is convenient, so the capital is moved.
Once the capital was moved, the whole country rejoiced.
Moving forward four hundred miles means that the political center moves to the middle, connecting the north and the south.
Therefore, when the time and place were favorable, he sent troops to make peace.
And the Dingding presented by Zhu Jun is the key to bringing people together!
A victory can change the situation and the fate of the country.
And victory can also suppress the rumors after the capital was moved.
Therefore, Zhu Yuanzhang was anxious.
These must be completed within two years.
"Have you chosen the government directly under the Central Government?" Zhu Yuanzhang suppressed the excitement in his heart and asked.
"They have all been selected. There are six direct-governed prefectures in total, Songjiang Prefecture, Hangzhou Prefecture, and Fuzhou Prefecture.
Heading north, Yanzhou Prefecture, Jinan Prefecture, Beiping Prefecture! "
Zhu Yu spread out the map and said, "It's exactly one line, which basically covers 70% of the state capital of our great cause!"
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded. The establishment of direct-governed prefectures was not only to enhance the status of these state capitals, but also to make plans, regulate roads, and build government offices accordingly.
"Don't let the news out for now. After our inspection next year and the changes in the court's duties, you can come and preside over the court meeting."
Generally, job changes occur at the end of the year. Once confirmed, you can take office after the new year.
But this year, Zhu Yuanzhang deliberately suppressed the list and did not release the list.
I just hope that Zhu Yu will support those who are determined to make progress.
In this way, the plan can be implemented more smoothly.
"If they don't know how, let them go to Fengyang to study and see how Fang Keqin governs Fengyang.
We feel that Fengyang’s governance method is very good and can be used as a reference.
Although it costs money, the long-term benefits are extraordinary! "Zhu Yuanzhang said.
This kind of governance is different from previous dynasties, and it can even be said to be very unique.
But the effect is surprisingly good.
He saw it with his own eyes.
Zhu Yu nodded, "Fengyang, it is indeed worth learning. I remember what Lao Liu said at the beginning, to refine things, quantify responsibilities, and add them to the assessment.
This is more worthy of being included in the evaluation than having a few more talented people, successful candidates, and filial sons. "
At present, inspections of officials are conducted every three years.
The inspections conducted by imperial officials were referred to as "internal inspections", also known as "internal plans".
The inspection by foreign officials is called "foreign inspection", also known as "foreign plan".
Officials of the fourth rank and above in the imperial court will be promoted or dismissed after inspection in the capital, and the decision will be made by the emperor himself.
This is also called 'taking the exam'.
Of course, although it is strict, it is not without loopholes.
Most of the exams were based on questions from the Hanlin Academy, focusing on classics and history.
When it comes to foreign officials, the Yamen is basically responsible for the assessment.
Zhu Yuanzhang was quite satisfied with this assessment method before.
But now that Fengyang has achieved results, he feels that his method of evaluating officials is too superficial.
In addition to the relatively intuitive test scores, the rest is how many students were produced under the officials' rule, how many filial sons and even chaste and martyr women were produced, which can be used as bonus points for official governance.
And how does Fengyang do the assessment?
How many roads have been built this year, how many bridges have been built, how many inns have been built, and how many river bank embankments have been built.
How many merchants have been introduced and how many people have been provided with jobs.
What is the employment rate and what is the unemployment rate?
How many people have been added and how many people have died.
Demographic list.
Fengyang's annual grain output, annual tax revenue, etc.
Each table represents Fengyang’s efforts this year from one dimension, which is intuitive and eye-catching.
Finally, set goals for next year: how many roads to build, how many bridges to build, how much to increase employment, encourage people to have children, how much investment is expected, and how much annual output value to achieve.
Each item is very convincing, much better than relying on some classics and history.
Fengyang even discouraged widows from being chaste and martyr women and encouraged them to get married.
To a certain extent, they criticize this system and feel that it destroys human nature and human desires. Fang Keqin once wrote about this system in a newspaper.
Therefore, Fengyang will not issue a chastity arch. Observing chastity for three years is a personal morality and should not be imposed on women. Everyone has the right to pursue happiness, as long as she does not break the law or commit a crime.
Fengyang was bold in every step he took.
Zhu Yuanzhang was horrified to see some of the moves.
“We will inspect after the Chinese New Year, and then we will bring Fengyang out to serve as a model and let them see how Fengyang has completed the transformation.
We can't hold back Lao Liu! "Zhu Yuanzhang said.
The father and son settled the matter with just a few words from each other.
In the future, municipalities directly under the Central Government will also imitate the Fengyang model.
Zhu Jun doesn't know about this yet.
He was still immersed in joy at this time.
Mu Nianci was hit.
In other words, he will have four children in the coming year!
He was quite satisfied with his shooting ability.
After comforting Mu Nianci, Guanyin slave came over and said, "Your Highness, there is a letter from over there!"
Zhu Jun's eyes lit up, "Did your elder brother and others reply to the letter?"
Guanyin Nu nodded, "There is a letter written specifically for you, I haven't opened it yet!"
After getting pregnant, Guanyin Nu became more and more plump, and Zhu Jun was also itchy. However, the first three months and the next three months were both dangerous periods, so he could only endure it.
Zhu Jun held her waist and said, "Let's go to the study to read!"
When they came to the study, Guanyin Nu made tea for Zhu Jun, and Zhu Jun opened the envelope and read it. The letter was quite long. First, he thanked his brother-in-law for giving them gifts.
Then he threatened Zhu Jun to take good care of Guanyin Nu, otherwise he would settle the score with him.
In the end, they did not accept Zhu Jun's threat, and even said that they would let him go if Meng Yuan came back to fight again in the future!
After Zhu Jun read the letter, he couldn't help laughing.
"What did my brother say in his letter?" Guanyin slave asked curiously without moving over to read it.
"Your brother asked me to take good care of you, otherwise you will beat me!" Zhu Jun said.
Guanyin Nu also chuckled, "They have this temper, don't be like them!"
"As one family does not talk about two families, I decided to use a little trick to get my three brothers-in-law into a big business, but the process may be a little complicated and even dangerous!" Zhu Jun waved to Guanyin Nu.
Guanyin Nu sat obediently on Zhu Jun's lap, hooked her arms around his neck, and said worriedly: "Are you sure?"
"I have found out the information. Your eldest brother has basically been seized of power now. Regardless of his high status, he does not dare to leave the house easily.
You, the emperor of Meng Yuan, guard against him like a tiger. If your brother and the others are not honest, I think they will die! "Zhu Jun didn't hide it from Guanyin Nu, and told him his plan.
Guanyin slave was frightened, "You have done too much harm. My brother will still thank you when the time comes!"
"Your brother and the others have no way out. Instead of losing their lives, it is better to come to Daye. Anyway, don't worry, I will definitely not put them in danger!"
