Administrative regions, official offices, household registration files and acres of land are the basic structure of the local political system.
Since Southern Xinjiang has become Nanzhou, all aspects of work will naturally be carried out.
Xiao Yuanyu also raised this issue on the spot the next morning.
After hearing the news, the officials in the court were extremely excited, because in everyone's opinion, the recovery of Southern Xinjiang should be a few years away, and the best time would be when the sixth prince marries the princess of Southern Xinjiang.
Unexpectedly, such a surprise suddenly came.
This is of course related to Xiao Yuan's imperial edict.
The so-called kindness and power are actually telling Meng Ya: Either you become the Marquis of Nanning, we will get married, and I will give you all my status. Or prepare to face the Qin army's front.
Meng Ya was so smart that he had been preparing for this since he sent out troops to help. Now he is just following the trend, so there is no reason not to submit.
In joy, the ministers also came out one after another, talking nice words.
"Now that the southern border has returned to its homeland, the world is at peace, and the world is in great peace."
"Your Majesty, the Mingjun and the Holy Master, the mountains and rivers of Daqin are magnificent. We, my ministers, are so lucky."
Ding Rong was even more flattering and flattering: "Since the rule of the Three Emperors, the five emperors have been divided. Among the emperors in ancient times, none have your majesty's literary, Taoist and military strategies, nor your majesty's wise and powerful skills."
Xiao Yuanle said: "I am here to let you discuss things, not to flatter you."
Ding Rong said hurriedly: "Every sentence I say is from the bottom of my heart."
"Okay, okay." Xiao Yuan raised his hand and stepped into the topic: "In this court meeting, we will propose the division of counties and counties in Nanzhou."
The entire southern Xinjiang is still very large and has a large population, but there are no decent towns. This is because a few decades ago, most of them were still fishing and hunting in the mountains and seas with wooden bows and spears. In recent years, they have slowed down. Slowly integrating with the Central Plains, agriculture, mulberry industry, animal husbandry, etc. were developed.
Based on its geographical area and population distribution, Liu Yuzhi was the first to list: "Southern Xinjiang is vast, and the overall direction of its mountain ranges is mostly northeast and southwest, with plains and land of plenty. Therefore, I thought it would be better to have five counties. It can better improve our country’s administrative regions.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Su followed and said: "The Prime Minister has thought carefully, and I also think that the five counties are the best."
"I second the proposal."
"I also second my opinion."
Many ministers stood up. After thinking about it, Xiao Yuan nodded and said: "What the Prime Minister said is very appropriate. Let's establish six counties and forty-seven counties."
The forty-seven counties were studied by Xiao Yuan a long time ago. They were also determined based on the existing population and market settlement scale in southern Xinjiang.
Southern Xinjiang is equivalent to a province. In the era when countries were competing for hegemony, it was enough to stand on its own as a country. Otherwise, Meng Ya's predecessor would not have called himself the King of the South.
Given the size of the province, there should be a state capital to govern affairs. Xiao Yuan has designated this place as Nanzhou. As for the location of the capital (provincial capital), he said: "Since there are six counties, then the western part of Nanzhou will be classified as Guilin County." , Lingnan County, Chaoyang and Jieyang to the east of Nanzhou, and Panyu and Zhanyang in the central area."
"As for the Nanzhou capital, it should still be in Panyu."
There is definitely no problem with Panyu being the capital, but Shangguan Wenruo said: "Panyu is one of the important birthplaces of southern Xinjiang, and it will also be the political, economic and cultural center of Nanzhou in the future. In my opinion, Nanzhou is now returning In order to govern, your majesty should spread favor and trust widely, rather than naming it Guangxin as the administrative seat of the state capital."
"Well, this is a good suggestion. I also think that Panyu is not suitable for this name." Xiao Yuan said: "Then Guangxin County."
"Your Majesty is wise." Shangguan Wenruo saluted and returned.
Xiao Yuan drew circles on the map of several cases for a while, and then said: "From today on, the six counties and forty-seven counties in Nanzhou are the indivisible territory of our Great Qin, and we will declare it to the world."
"I obey your orders——" All the ministers said in unison.
"Zhang Jingrui."
"I'm here." The latter quickly stepped out of the queue.
Xiao Yuan said directly: "The Ministry of Industry will immediately appoint officials to Nanzhou. Not only the construction of Nanzhou Prefecture, but also government offices at all levels such as county government, county government, and Wuwei Prefecture must have plans, including the subsequent schools and colleges. ."
"Yes, Wei Chen accepts the order." Zhang Jingrui bowed his hands.
"Chen Huaiming." Xiao Yuan shouted again.
"I'm here."
"Re-count the registered population of the entire Nanzhou. Every household must be registered, including the acres of land in each place, and they must be measured clearly. Regarding the people's livelihood and the country, this matter cannot be postponed, nor can there be any omissions."
Xiao Yuan said, picking up a thick file: "This is the past tax household registration of Nanzhou submitted by Meng Ya. I looked at it and found that there are many vulgarities. You can make a rough reference."
The attendant understood, took the document, and walked over to hand it to Chen Huaiming.
The latter took it respectfully: "I accept my order."
After saying this, Xiao Yuan also stood up: "If you have nothing else to do, please retreat from the court."
"Farewell to Your Majesty——" All the ministers bowed their hands and bowed.
After going to court, Xiao Yuan went to the study to continue reviewing the memorials.
After reviewing and reviewing, he also read Zhang Dashan's book.
The content of this memorial is very rough. In short, it is about asking the Chang'an camp to train troops and horses.
The roughness lies not only in the smoothness of the sentences, but also in the short memorial of more than 300 words. Zhang Dashan actually made seven typos.
This kind of thing depends entirely on how the emperor sees it. If a civil servant did this, he would definitely be reprimanded. But for the founding military general with a mud-legged background, Xiao Yuan was both angry and funny.
He circled the misspelled words one by one with a red pen and made a comment: If a person is knowledgeable, he will be powerful.
Then he asked the attendant to pass the memorial back to Zhang Dashan.
In the afternoon.
This memorial had been returned. Looking at the small red circles on it and the red instructions on one side, Zhang Dashan's head buzzed, and then he found the staff in the mansion in a panic: "Sir, look at this. "
As he spoke, he handed the memorial to his staff with a look of fear and anxiety on his face.
The latter took it, and at first glance, he was a little confused: "General, oh! If your Majesty is angered by such a memorial, his life may be at risk! General, why didn't you give it to me to check before? There would be so many typos.”
"Isn't Mr. Qianfan absent for something? Here, here, here, oh! What should I do?" Zhang Dashan was full of anxiety: "Your Majesty must be angry. I checked before."
"Your Majesty's eight words of approval are no longer an encouragement, but a rebuke." The staff said, and he said seriously: "Fortunately, your Majesty is tolerant and generous, but General, you can't be like this anymore."
"I know, I know, starting from today, don't miss an hour of lecture every day." Zhang Dashan was very panicked.
"Then, if the general continues to use the excuse of being busy with military affairs."
"Then show me His Majesty's instructions!" (End of Chapter)
