The service participation system developed by Luo Zhixue is a system in which one person takes charge of the overall situation and other people are responsible for different affairs.
Mainly because he was unwilling to delegate power and wanted to further centralize imperial power, but he was too busy and had limited energy to handle everything personally.
Finally, we made reference to the cabinet system of the Ming Dynasty and the military aircraft department system of the Qing Dynasty, plus some systems of later modern countries, and finally came up with this service participation system.
Its core principle was to centralize imperial power, not anything else.
The central organization of the Dachu Empire was like this. When the provincial governor's office was subsequently established, the central participation system was also referred to to a certain extent, and a very special system of division of responsibilities was established.
That is, the governor is in charge of the general direction and is in charge of all administrative affairs, while a group of subordinates are responsible for a bunch of different affairs, and the governor is given the power to adjust the scope of affairs under their jurisdiction.
Of course, this is only part of it. In order to prevent local officials from talking over each other, some strategic development matters need to be held in charge of meetings, which require the signatures of more than half of the officials in charge to have legal effect.
In other words, even the top leader can't make a statement. If you can't get the support of your subordinates, you can't carry out your work. If the officials in charge don't sign for you, even if you are the governor, you can't do anything...
At the same time, the appointment power of these officials is in the hands of the superior government, not the governor.
Some governors adjust their authority. If they don't like you, they will put you in charge of garbage affairs. If they value you, they will put you in charge of important matters.
However, the governor has no power to remove the officials in charge of his subordinates. At most, he can make suggestions to the superiors, but whether the superiors listen to them or not is another matter.
In all these ways, Luo Zhixue wanted to give the governor enough authority and prevent the governor from being a local emperor and acting like a feudal official.
And these are still essentially for centralization, and centralization is for the concentration of imperial power.
Because the appointment and dismissal of the various personnel in charge of the governor's Yamen, that is, the officials above the council, all need to be decided by the capital, that is, Luo Zhixue's decision.
Not to mention the governor, even the Ministry of Personnel Affairs does not have this authority.
Of course, in actual operation, except for a few special circumstances, Luo Zhixue usually fully delegates power to the Ministry of Civil Affairs for the appointment and dismissal of third-rank counselors, and lets them submit candidates for their own selection... Luo Zhixue is mainly in charge of the provinces. Appointment and removal of governors and chief envoys.
Later, this system of division of responsibilities in governor's yamen was further promoted, and was fully implemented in government-level, state-level, county-level and even town-level yamen.
After more than 20 years of evolution, from the capital to provinces, prefectures, prefectures, counties, and towns, the Chu Empire has formed a political system that is different from the traditional feudal dynasty, that is, the divided administration system.
In this set of systems, the basic pattern is the same, that is, one person takes charge of the general direction and realizes his or her strategic intentions through personnel appointments and removals, finance and other powers, but rarely personally participates in a certain matter.
It’s not that the top leader personally ends up, but it rarely happens!
Because this often means that the local chief official has completely lost control of the situation... You, a local chief official, can't even control his subordinates. With such political means, how can you talk about replacing the emperor's herdsmen? The superiors will often directly replace you. Got it!
Not to mention local officials, even Luo Zhixue, the founder of this system, rarely does this.
When this is done, it is either an innocuous trivial matter, a matter of unity, or it is a time when Luo Zhixue needs to decide the strategic direction arbitrarily and cannot tolerate any opposition.
But in most cases, even in matters related to some imperial strategies, Luo Zhixue would not easily end up personally.
He realized his political intentions through certain ministers.
As for finding a suitable minister... he will directly replace him with a suitable minister!
This is also the reason why the Minister of Counselor has no rank, no quota, and no fixed office. It is also because there are local decisions in charge and decrees need to be signed by more than half of the officials in charge, but central government orders do not require the signature of the Minister of Counselor.
The Gyeonggi's participation system and the local division of management system may seem similar, but in fact they are very different. Apart from the concentration of imperial power, other aspects are still similar.
This series of local management systems have been implemented in the Great Chu Empire for nearly twenty years. They have already been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people and have formed a series of explicit rules and regulations, as well as some unspoken rules that are not known to outsiders.
For example, the economic and people's livelihood affairs of a province are in charge of the chief envoy, and the governor can control the general direction.
However, in the Provincial Governor's Office in Guangzhou City, Tang Tiangui challenged this unspoken rule and personally participated in the affairs of the Dongcheng Industrial Zone as the governor.
As a person who has been involved in the central government of Gyeonggi Province for many years, Cheng Yongfeng's political consciousness is not low, and he can see this abnormality at a glance.
And he knew that there would definitely be others who could see this abnormality!
Especially those inspectors and censors next door who are watching with eager eyes!
They will never let go of the opportunity to impeach a new governor. Even if they can't impeach him, they will let the new governor Tang Tiangui know how powerful their inspector is!
In addition to the use of the Inspectorate, the few counselors from the third rank in the governor's office, as well as the department directors and prefects from the fourth rank below can also find several breakthroughs.
After looking around, he set his sights on the Agriculture and Forestry Hall!
For no other reason than that, the deputy director of the Department of Agriculture and Forestry used to be his subordinate in the secretariat and his person. He should first recruit his own people. If nothing else, the agriculture within the chief minister's power would be included in his pocket. , there is no need to continue to face resistance from local faction officials such as Tang Tiangui.
As for the local situation, he doesn't have many flags that he can use now. The only one he is more optimistic about, Wang Tu, is now just a sixth-grade county magistrate, embarrassing to use.
We have to start from other directions to get a breakthrough.
However, he still admires Wang Tu, and this person has appeared in front of His Majesty many times and has been praised by His Majesty. He is also a secretary of the same faction as himself, so he should be able to serve as a pawn after being recruited.
But that is all in the future. For now, Cheng Yongfeng still has to start with a group of prefect and director-level people in the province, and first recruit a few worthy people.
Cheng Yongfeng's movements were quickly noticed by Tang Tiangui.
Faced with Cheng Yongfeng's behavior of coaxing and suppressing, Tang Tiangui was disgusted.
In fact, Tang Tiangui was not ignorant of the unspoken rules of politics, and knew that he could not deprive Cheng Yongfeng of his authority so directly.
But...for more than half a month after Cheng Yongfeng took office, he acted like he was from the secretariat and was superior to others all day long.
Not to mention visiting and talking in private, and then holding hands to continue to develop the good situation in Guangdong in recent years. Instead, they turned a blind eye to Tang Tiangui's several goodwill releases.
Damn, who are you looking down on?
If it was just like this, Tang Tiangui would tolerate it, but Cheng Yongfeng seemed to be a person who liked to talk but not do anything.
For more than half a month, he hid in the chief envoy's office at the governor's office every day and did not even go out for inspections. When he summoned his subordinates, he always talked about nonsense.
For more than half a month, I haven't seen him put forward any specific plan for economic construction, just some messy slogans.
He still keeps his mouth open all day long, the Emperor, and shuts his mouth, Your Majesty, making him look like the only loyal minister in the world.
Bastard, when I followed His Majesty to conquer the world, you didn't even know you were squatting in that ravine.
No matter how you look at it, he looks like a guy who came down from above to go through the motions. He might be transferred back to Gyeonggi and promoted to a higher position that day.
Gold plating was fine, but the position of chief envoy was very important, and the economic affairs he was in charge of were also very important. He, Tang Tiangui, wanted to make a big career as governor.
The result is a guy who is occupying the latrine and not taking a shit.
Tang Tiangui was very unhappy!
Finally, the Dongcheng Industrial Zone plan is a plan he has been preparing for more than a year. When the Chief Envoy took office, he has been planning to build another industrial zone and connect the industrial zones around Guangzhou City through railways. and Pearl River combined to eventually build an industrial cluster.
Create a multi-industrial industrial cluster, thereby driving the economic development of the entire Pearl River Delta region and even Guangdong.
Eventually surpassing Jiangnan and becoming the most economically powerful province in Chu!
As for the capital city of Yingtianfu, although it is still ahead of Guangdong for the time being, it will only happen this year. According to the economic development of the two places this year, Guangdong's economy will directly surpass Yingtianfu this year, and it can open up a big gap. One piece.
From now on, it will be an era when Guangdong and Jiangnan provinces compete!
After Tang Tiangui took office as governor, he had only one ultimate goal: to kill Jiangnan Province and make Guangdong the most economically powerful province in the world in his own hands!
In his opinion, Cheng Yongfeng's performance was blocking his own path.
Furthermore, it was Tang Tiangui who started the Dongcheng Industrial Zone in the first place. He couldn't say that he stopped doing it after he became the governor.
As for leaving everything to Cheng Yongfeng, to be honest, he was not at ease, and he was not willing to give such a big credit directly to Cheng Yongfeng. Cheng Yongfeng was not his father!
He came here by air and did nothing, but as soon as he took office, he took credit for establishing a new industrial zone and creating an industrial cluster?
How can there be such a good thing in the world!
Therefore, the scene at the economic meeting appeared. Tang Tiangui finally chose to bypass Cheng Yongfeng and continue to promote his plan for the former Dongcheng Industrial Zone.
This also triggered a violent rebound from Cheng Yongfeng.
If a chief envoy is really trying to counterattack, his energy is still quite high. Even if he is just an airborne chief envoy with little foundation, his title of third rank is there. Tang Tiangui can ignore it, and other councilors can also remain silent. Pretending not to see.
But those department heads and prefects can’t do that!
The first level of officialdom is overwhelming, not to mention that Cheng Yongfeng's background is quite impressive, and he is a close minister of the emperor. It really offends him, and I'm afraid he won't be able to be an official anymore.
As a result, the officialdom in Guangzhou City suddenly became a little tense, especially when Cheng Yongfeng began to inspect various departments in the city, as well as Guangzhou City and surrounding industrial areas. On the surface, it seemed to be peaceful, and everyone had something to say. Laughing, but there was quite a disturbance secretly.
While Cheng Yongfeng was fighting openly and secretly with Tang Tiangui in Guangzhou City, Luo Zhixue also received reports from the Internal Affairs Department of the Hanlin Academy one after another.
As for the overt and covert fight between Cheng Yongfeng and Tang Tiangui, Luo Zhixue acted as if he didn't see it as always.
The fight between the two men was within his expectation.
When he decided to parachute a chief envoy, this situation was bound to happen.
And this is also his intention. In the past few years, the political scene in Guangdong has been too smooth, and the top and bottom have been too single-minded.
Although political stability is conducive to development, it is Luo Zhixue's turn to worry...
What others see is rapid economic development, but what he sees is the emergence of localism...
The main reason why Li Qihua was transferred to Beijing was because he had outstanding abilities and was worthy of Luo Zhixue's training.
But another underlying reason is that Li Qihua has been in Guangdong for too long and has too strong control over the local area, which is stronger than what a governor should have.
It was a combination of many aspects that led to Li Qihua's decision to move to Beijing to serve as Minister of Industry and Commerce.
After Li Qihua entered Beijing, if he did not want Guangdong to continue this kind of localism, he would have to suppress it appropriately.
Of course, it is not the kind of suppression, but to reverse the situation in the local political arena where the top and bottom are too single-minded, people in important positions are all from the same faction, and the governor is in charge.
Cheng Yongfeng is very suitable for this task.
To be honest, Luo Zhixue doesn't think much of this person's ability to develop local economic affairs... although his ability in this area is not bad.
But what Luo Zhixue valued more was this man's power play.
It’s hard to say for someone who can move around economically and locally, and eventually move all the way to the Secretariat to become the deputy director and first secretary. It’s hard to say what other abilities he has, but his level of struggle must be very high.
Otherwise...there are so many officials in the world, why did he finally become the deputy director of the Secretariat and a close minister of the emperor?
Luo Zhixue had a very clear understanding of this. Although Cheng Yongfeng was respectful and honest in front of him, he was just like an ordinary gentleman's attendant.
But just being able to give yourself such an impression without making yourself hate him and reuse him is not something ordinary people can do.
Both Android and Apple are available. 】
Since this person is good at this kind of thing, okay, go to Guangdong and let him face off against Tang Tiangui, and then see how the situation develops.
Even if it was not Cheng Yongfeng, but someone else was chosen to be the chief envoy of Guangdong, Luo Zhixue would most likely choose a master who was good at playing power.
If a chief minister is really parachuted in who only focuses on developing the economy, it will be over... Tang Tiangui will be the next Li Qihua. By then, Luo Zhixue may not be able to promote Tang Tiangui, but will have to kill him.
And Luo Zhixue didn't want to kill Tang Tiangui!
He felt that this man was quite capable. He had his own way of developing the economy, especially industry. This ability was relatively rare in the entire empire.
Guangdong's economy is what it is today, which is inseparable from this person's efforts.
Luo Zhixue appreciated this very much.
Only then did he decide to directly succeed him as governor, hoping that he would continue to lead Guangdong to maintain rapid economic development.
But while re-employing him, he must also give Tang Tiangui some restraints to prevent him from becoming the next Li Qihua, which may even lead to a bad change in the overall atmosphere of the local officialdom.
He couldn't tolerate this kind of thing.
Both use and suppress, this is Luo Zhixue's employment strategy for Tang Tiangui.
Cheng Yongfeng's role was purely as a ballast stone, which could hold the ship against the wind and waves, but could not sink the ship.
It's a pity that the empire's counselors and ministers can still see through some of Luo Zhixue's thoughts, and some of the co-organizing ministers can also see through part of it.
However, at the local level, limited by the limitations of information and height of vision, not many local officials can see through Luo Zhixue's layout.
And the two parties involved are deeply involved in fighting with each other. Who cares about Luo Zhixue's in-depth plans for promoting the two of them...
