When leaving Menxia Province, Li Ke took out a document from his arms and handed it to Wei Zheng.

"Uh? What is this, Your Highness?" Wei Zheng was a little confused.

"It's for you. Take a look. After you think about it, write a memorial to my father." Li Ke said.

Wei Zheng paused, nodded and took the memorial in his hand. Wei Zheng knew Li Shimin's thoughts, so of course he accepted what Li Ke gave him.

Next, Li Ke went to Shangshu Province, one for each of the six departments, and one of the departments here in Shangshu Province was also left.

Then came the left guard, right guard, general, Dali Temple, Sinong Temple, Shangnian Bureau, Honglu Temple and so on.

As soon as I walked down, I found that the first batch of thirty pendulum clocks was not enough. Li Ke felt a little emotional. Although it seemed to be from ancient times, after it was passed down to later generations, we only knew that ancient times had a system of three provinces and six ministries. But in fact, there were many other yamen under the three provinces and six ministries system, such as the Yushijian, Zongzheng Temple, Tai Pusi, Taifu Temple, Shaofujian, Dushuijian, etc...

Sure enough, it is not that simple to manage the yamen of a country. This is not like a country like the Nuoqiang Kingdom, where Jiang Quhu can even catch thieves himself.

Many things have been passed down since ancient times. This thing is inheritance. A country is really not that simple.

Thinking of this, Li Ke shivered, no, I don't think this has anything to do with me.

Li Ke felt a headache just thinking about these yamen.

I'd better stay out of the way.

Li Ke did not enter the palace. Although people came, he felt that it was better not to see his father. What if Comrade Li Er couldn't think of arranging work for him? I said that if I don’t enter the palace for two months, I won’t enter the palace for two months.

After Li Ke left here, people from various yamen were naturally curious and looked around the pendulum clock for a long time, especially the three hour hands, minute hands, and second hands of the pendulum clock. They really moved exactly the same every time. It looked like Very exquisite.

And as the top group of people in Datang, they naturally know how beneficial this thing is to improving efficiency and other aspects. Time is more quantified, and naturally the processing of some things can also be quantified.

The biggest impact it can have is naturally on production sites such as general supervisors, but it is also beneficial to yamen like them.

At least a time span of one hour is too rough. Times smaller than one hour are often estimates for them, but now with this pendulum clock, the time is naturally more accurate.

Wei Zheng from the Menxia Province opened the memorial that Li Ke gave him.

Wei Zheng opened it and took a look at the concept and related settings of "About the Establishment of the Datang Discipline Supervision Commission".

The name is in the style of His Highness the King of Qin. It is not like some yamen in the Tang Dynasty, where ordinary people have no idea what they do.

But it’s clear at a glance what the records watchdog is for.

"The imperial censor system and the ministers of the Tang Dynasty both had the responsibility to supervise the emperor and officials. However, from ancient times to the present, these systems have not been a great deterrent to officials. Therefore, the system needs to be reformed."

"After the Supervisory Committee is established, it does not belong to any government department, but to the management of the Supreme Committee (tentative) that will be established in the future. Its main task is to supervise all officials, and it has the power to investigate corruption by all officials. But it does not have the function of trial. After supervising all officials and discovering problems, relevant evidence and materials can be submitted to the relevant Ministry of Punishment and other departments, which will then be reviewed by the Ministry of Punishment and other departments."

“In addition to investigating corruption and other issues among officials, the main tasks of the Supervisory Committee also include the issue of illegal use of rights and abuse of power. If these problems are not sufficient to impose a sentence or dismissal from office, the Supervisory Committee will reprimand or abuse the relevant officials. It’s an admonishment talk.”

"The Supervisory Committee is independent of the government systems of each province and state, and the Supreme Supervisory Committee has the right to appoint inspection teams to the following provinces and states to conduct relevant investigations."

Seeing this, Wei Zheng took a deep breath. This was the overall concept proposed by His Highness King Qin for the construction of the Supervisory Committee, and Wei Zheng was required to use this concept as a framework to fill in, especially some precautions and so on.

But if this supervisory committee is established, it means that they, the servants and censors, will no longer just talk nonsense in the court and find other people's petty faults. It’s a matter of catching other people’s little problems and not letting them go.

This thing is really a challenge for Wei Zheng. Judging from the functions of this supervisory committee, Wei Zheng's main target in the future may be to change from the emperor to the officials. Thinking of this, Wei Zheng is also a little speechless.

In this way, although His Highness is unaware of this, he is still trying to find a way for himself. Why, he doesn't want us servants and censors to stare at him every day.

There are also responsibilities related to supervising the clan and princes, but the premise of this responsibility is that these people also hold positions. If there is no position and they are just a prince, then you don't have to worry about it. , unless the other party breaks the law.

Wei Zhengren was speechless. Didn't this make it clear that His Highness King Qin didn't want people to stare at him? As for breaking the law, His Highness King Qin definitely does not break the law.

Nonsense. With His Highness the King of Qin's status and consideration, the Law of the Tang Dynasty is his greatest weapon. Why would he violate it himself? This is certain, as long as it is within the scope stipulated by the laws of the Tang Dynasty, His Highness King Qin will have so much fun.

Although he was confused, Wei Zheng was somewhat excited, because this meant that what His Majesty and His Highness thought was true? Do you really want to move the rights below?

Wei Zheng must know how powerful the Supervisory Committee will be after its establishment. However, in the past, this kind of supervisory power could only be said to belong to the emperor. There must be impeachment among officials, but investigation, that is The investigation can only be carried out after His Majesty gives the order.

Judging from His Highness's description, it seems that the Supervisory Committee itself has the ability to make relevant decisions.

Although it must be reported to the superiors in the end, this means that they can investigate first, or even arrest people first and then report finally.

The biggest advantage of this is that it frees up the work intensity of the highest authority. For example, some low-level officials at the county level can be handled by the Supervisory Committee themselves, and finally reported to His Majesty. After His Majesty reviews it and there are no problems, he will deal with it directly. .

Whether it even needs to be reported to His Majesty will be unknown at that time.

Especially the Supreme Council, or it may not be called this name, His Highness marked it as tentative, or let's say it is the cabinet of the three provinces, and it is decided by them together. It doesn't matter even if His Majesty doesn't know.
