Chapter 767: Preparations

In the final battle to chase and annihilate Cheng Qun, Yun Zhao did not leave Yizhou City at all. The era of Cheng Qun has ended. As a loser, he will eventually become the figure who has been in the vast history. Now Yun Zhao has achieved great victory in the military, but the troubles on him are much more complicated than war.

The north was unified, but the reconstruction work after the war was much more troublesome than fighting. The first is the shortage of talents. Yun Zhao did not pay too much attention to this in the past. Everything was simple during the war, and all people and things served the war. When the war ended, these troubles finally began to reveal their potential problems.

The North has already had talents. Over the past ten years, wars have been fought almost all the time, and the literary style, which is not very prosperous in the North, has been extremely ruined. Looking at the entire North, let alone those with knowledge and reputation, there are not many people who can read.

Yun Zhao is planning a major reform, and the motion for this reform was proposed by Han Zhong. What Yun Zhao deeply recognized can be said to be concerned about the major events of the entire North Governor's Office.

Da Yueli was the governor of the military and civil affairs of a state, and it was also the legendary people that the garrison was on horseback and the garrison was on horseback and the civilians. This made it easy for a state magistrate to build a state into his private property if he had ambitions. Han Zhong now proposed the division of military and civilians. In other words, the garrison would only manage civil affairs and not interfere in military affairs in the future. The garrison would not interfere in any local affairs except to obtain the most basic supply from the state.

The army was directly dispatched by the Governor's Office of the North, and the local government had no authority to command the army, which made the army, a violent weapon, completely gathered into the hands of the supreme ruling body, to prevent local power from swelling.

"The little emperor will arrive in Xingling soon. We just took this opportunity to upgrade the six departments of the Governor's Office of the Northern Army to six divisions!" Yun Zhao knocked on the table and smiled: "Since Ye Kai has been appointed as the chief minister by the little emperor, let him be the chief minister. The livelihood of the northern part is enough to make him busy."

"The prince is right, but before he arrives, we must complete all institutional reforms, so that after he, the chief minister, will not have any involvement in military affairs. In the future, we can reach out to ask him for money and food, which will make him a headache." Yao Changkun laughed.

Ma Yigong stood up and said with some dissatisfaction: "Everyone, don't gloat, you guys, you guys, don't be gloating. You're going to force Ye Kai to force Ye Kai to the time, wouldn't Ye Kai force me to the Caishuo? At that time, I was the one who had a headache. Please show your mercy and your mercy!"

Everyone laughed, and Han Zhong stood up and said, "Master Ma, I'm talking plainly. Ye Kailai is just a nominal prime minister. His approach is in line with our interests. Then we will be able to pick up firewood. If we deviate from the prince's goal, we will be embarrassed. At that time, let him scratch his head, and each department will come and ask him questions continuously. It's best to let him retreat and retire from his post and recuperate, and be a rich man in Xingling!"

Everyone burst into laughter again.

Yun Zhao knocked on the table and said, "Okay, don't discuss how to deal with Ye Kai, but think about what's happening right now. According to Lord Han's suggestion, we will immediately raise the court's arsenal, upgrade the CAS to the Ministry of Revenue, the Wugong Department to the Ministry of War, the Supervision Department to the Ministry of Justice, the Career Department to the Ministry of Personnel, the Xingye Department to the Ministry of Works, and the Mingzhi Department to the Ministry of Rites. The former directors of each department are still the Minister of the Ministry of Ministers. As for the left and right ministers, each department will select talents from the department and report them to the deliberation, and then you can serve."

Everyone showed joy on their faces. When the little emperor came, the court's airs would be set up, and they could also take a new step from now on. When Yun Zhao entered the Central Plains, entered Shangjing, and founded the country and established the dynasty, they would naturally become the core rulers of the new dynasty.

"Prince, in addition to these six departments, there are also the Supervision Bureau, Dali Temple and other departments that must also put on the shelves." Han Zhong bowed.

"We really had no foundation in these two positions before. Forget it, let's leave these two departments to Lord Ye Kai. Since he is already the chief minister, we must give him some face. The Supervisory Office is responsible for supervising all officials. Although it is noble, it has no real power. For us, it is a very good position for the people from the little emperor. How about it? The Dali Temple is also given to them." Yun Zhao said.

"Yes, Prince, but there is another position that cannot be given to them no matter what, and we can only control it ourselves." Yao Changkun said: "Prince, that is Tongzhengsi."

As the name suggests, the Tongzhengsi Department is to convey the text of the disc.<-》The memorials of the ministers are screened by the Tongzhengsi Department, copied with yellow paper, and submitted to the emperor. They are approved by the eunuch holding the pen. Since all memorials must pass here, and the ministers must first report to the Tongzhengsi Department when they meet. The Tongzhengsi Department will convey the request to the emperor at the same time. Only with the emperor's permission can you meet the emperor, so this is an extremely important department. After controlling the Tongzhengsi Department, he controls the emperor.

Yun Zhao rinsed and cleared his throat, "I am going to let Guo Feng serve as a part-time position in Tongzhengsi. What do you think?"

Everyone was silent for a moment and nodded in agreement. The department of the Zhengfangsi was always shameless, so they let Guo Feng serve as the Tongzhengsi and strictly control the words and deeds of the young emperor. For the Zhengfangsi, it was a good show and he also found a glorious and gorgeous robe for the Zhengfangsi.

"It is easy to set up a stand, and there is no major problem with the operation of the central government. After all, the Sixth Division of the Governor's Office has been operating smoothly for several years, and everyone has experience. Now my question is, what should we do with each state? Now we are not only the sixteen states in the north, but also the large areas of land outside the country and the territories of several states in the south of the Yangtze River. In the past, the army was led by the army and served as the magistrates in various places. Now that we have decided to divide the military and political affairs, the candidates for the magistrates of each state will be appointed. And it is not only the magistrates, but everyone also knows that there have been constant wars over the years, and the loss of officials is extremely serious. Some county governments have only one empty stand, and no officials can be found in the yamen. Once the army leaves, it is likely to form chaos in the local area. But long-term military control is obviously not feasible. Everyone thinks about ways and expresses their opinions. What should we do?" Yun Zhao said.

This was a huge problem. After a while, Yao Changkun said: "It is not difficult to choose a magistrate. It is rare to be the officials below. Those who do things are specific officials below. If the subordinates are not fulfilled, no matter how talented the magistrate is, it is hard to cook without rice."

Zhao Xu, director of the Examination Department, looked at Guo Changxing, the former director of the Ming system, and said, "Mr. Guo, I remember that when the Ming system was established, the prince had a clear order to set up a school and cultivate talents. I wonder if there is anyone now?"

Guo Changxing smiled bitterly: "Mr. Zhao, over the years, the Governor's Office has been focusing on war. The funds allocated to our Mingzhi Department can count them with your fingers. I can't do anything except opening some private schools in Yizhou. Not to mention talents, I am basically teaching the children to study now. I want them to come out and do things, so wait for another ten years!"

On this issue, everyone cannot use it. The northern region is indeed scarce, unlike the south where literary style is prosperous, where scholars carry traffic.

"Prince, I have a way!" Han Zhong left the list again.

"Oh, Lord Han, please tell me!" Yun Zhao was overjoyed.

"Aren't the little emperor coming to prosper? Whenever a new emperor ascends the throne, he will be a great success in the world, and he will be recruiting talents and recruiting talents. Naturally, we can take this opportunity to recruit talents." Han Zhongdao.

"The problem is that there are not many scholars in the north, and even fewer talented people." Yun Zhao sighed.

"Otherwise, the north is vast and the mountains and fields will inevitably have many mountains and fields. As long as the students are selected, there will always be people coming to try their skills. Moreover, I think many unsuccessful scholars in the south may look at this step to advance. If they come to the north to try their luck, there will inevitably be many. As long as we promote it widely and as long as they are willing to come from, we will be responsible for bringing them to the north to participate in the science and technology test." Han Zhong said.

"This is a solution!" Yao Changkun stood up and supported: "The prince, there are many scholars in the south, but those who can truly pass their examinations are mostly children of wealthy families. In the south, examinations have become the forbidden family. It is difficult for ordinary scholars to enter this circle. Even if there are a few examinations in each examination, it is to decorate the face. The so-called poor, rich and powerful scholars are in the south. There are many poor scholars. We opened this door for them, but I don't believe that they are not moved. The so-called learning of civil and military skills and selling them to the imperial family. These people have no chance in the south. If they come to the north, they may be able to make a fortune. There will always be talents we need here."

Everyone nodded after saying something.

"Okay, then this is how you do it. In addition to enrolling a vocational college, we might as well have some wild ways!" Yun Zhao smiled and said, "In the northern prefectures, prefectures and counties, it doesn't matter if you haven't studied. As long as you have a skill, we will have it. For example, if you farm well and plant it well, you will go to the yamen to supervise the farming. You only need to know how to plant the land and teach these skills to the people, then I will give you a black hat. Two-pronged approach, and I won't believe it. I'm waiting for people to sit here with an empty official position, and there is still a reason why I can't recruit people!"

Everyone laughed, "The prince said, "All we have no one now, as long as we have a skill, we will not refuse anyone."

"Since that's the case, everyone will prepare their own things and do everything in advance. When the little emperor comes, we will start moving. Lord Han, Lord Yao, and Lord Wang Bin will stay, and everyone else will go and rest!" Yun Zhao said.
