Chapter 132 Re-establishing the center
Liu Yanzong came out and said: "At that time, the state dynasty had 500,000 officials who were in charge of their officials and did not know their duties, eight out of ten were the ones. First, it caused the national salary to be wasted, and second, it was that the redundant officials came to the court's government orders and did not leave the capital. The officials' forces were mixed, and the party struggles were everywhere, which ruined the rules. Please order the redundant officials to be eliminated according to the actual needs of the court!"
Xu Churen said: "Your Majesty, I also agree to reduce the number of officials. However, if you directly and rudely eliminate these people and let them return home, it will probably cause civil unrest."
Xu Churen knew that no one could stop the emperor's idea of eliminating officials, and he did not dare to stop him, but he felt that he could not let those people get out directly, otherwise those people would inevitably criticize the court when they returned to their hometown, which would cause public unrest and he, the boss of the East Mansion, would have a headache again.
"Oh, what's Xu Qing's opinion?"
"Speak to Your Majesty, the national schools of Hanlin Academy are about to be established and are in need of talents. You can transfer redundant officials to the school to be a teacher."
Zhao Huan looked at the others and said, "What about the others? What do you think?"
Why? He said: "Your Majesty, I think Mr. Xu's words are feasible."
Liu Yanzong said: "Your Majesty, I think that you should first reduce your salary and then add your position."
"How to reduce salary?"
Liu Yanzong said: "I have to ask Mr. Shi, and he is in charge of all the school affairs."
Shi Xun hurriedly stepped out and said, "Your Majesty, according to the level of a teacher in the school, the monthly salary of primary school is ten jin, the monthly salary of middle school is twenty jin, and the monthly salary of university is thirty jin."
Zhao Huan said: "Zhou Dynasty, what do you think?"
"Your Majesty, I think it's feasible." Zhou Chao quickly applauded in his heart. As a department in charge of money, he had tasks to save money and was naturally happy to see it.
Zhao Huan thought for a moment and felt that it was not impossible to be a teacher. Although the imperial court is now promoting the academic studies of hundreds of schools, it is not entirely despised Confucianism. At least there is Confucianism in the Spring and Autumn Period.
Shi Xun said: "Your Majesty, the number of schools is limited after all, and I am afraid that the school cannot accommodate so many teachers."
Xu Churen hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, not all the redundant officials are civil servants."
Zhao Huan frowned: "What if there are extra officials?"
Xu Churen was really in trouble now, and the others didn't speak for a while.
Liu Yanzong said, "Your Majesty, I think that after experiencing the war, the number of officials in the Central Plains has dropped. The specific amount can be counted by the Ministry of Personnel. There are two options for the remaining redundant officials. One is to allocate schools, the other is to allocate commercial banks, banks, the Great Song Dynasty newspapers, Tokyo Express, and the Shangyusi. In addition, the imperial court is preparing to open a large scale, and King Kang also needs talents."
When the Zhou Dynasty heard what Liu Yanzong meant, he stood up and objected: "According to Liu Yusi's statement, this redundant official is equivalent to not being eliminated."
The financial tycoon who was in charge of money naturally hoped that the court would pay less and his tasks would be much lighter, so he firmly agreed with the emperor's large-scale layoffs.
Liu Yanzong said: "No, Your Majesty's intention is not that there are too many officials, but that there are only 10 people who are in the position of officials. Now, under the glory of the Holy Emperor, our Song Dynasty is becoming increasingly powerful. The country needs talents to open up forums. As long as officials perform their duties, why should the court lay off officials?"
Everyone was stunned by Liu Yanzong, saying that it was you who sacked the officials, but now they said they wouldn't slap them. You fucked them to ask everyone here on purpose, right? You bitch Liu! It's okay, you can go to the kilns in Tokyo to stroll more. You're thinking about that all day long. It's so fucking worth it!
Zhao Huan asked: "According to what Liu Qing saw, how should we rectify the phenomenon of calves being placed in vain?"
"Your Majesty, since the founding of the country, it has followed the system of the former Tang Dynasty, with three provinces and six ministries in place, but two governments, three departments and three yamen were set up, resulting in unclear power and responsibilities and bloated bureaucrats. I dared to make a bold statement, please ask Your Majesty to regain power and clear the turbidity!"
As soon as Liu Yanzong said this, the bosses of both mansions were stunned.
Liu Yanzong wanted the emperor to return the imperial court to rebuild it, which directly involved all the husbands present!
Xu Churen quickly stood up and said, "Your Majesty, you must not. This new policy is about to be implemented. If the two governments move, they will inevitably move and pull the whole body. The court is in chaos and the country will not be peaceful!"
Tang Ke also said: "Your Majesty, what Mr. Xu said is extremely true, I will discuss it!"
Zhao Huan glanced at the others, why? He also agreed. Li Gang also said: "Your Majesty, the new policy is imminent, so it is not easy to deal with it too hasty."
The Censorate and the Hanlin Academy acted as if they were not concerned about their own affairs, and they did not agree or objected.
Zhao Huan said: "Qin Hui, what do you think?"
Qin Hui sighed in his heart. This is really a difficult problem. On one side are important officials of the two prefectures, on the other side are the emperor and the great hero who is at its peak. He can't afford to offend both sides.
Qin Hui said: "Your Majesty, I think what Liu Yusi said is very true. Our dynasty followed the system of the former Tang Dynasty, and the three provinces and six ministries were in place. However, the three provinces had their positions and were not given their positions."
Zhao Huan said: "If the three provinces and six ministries are restored, what do you think?"
Qin Hui said: "I think the system of the three provinces and six ministries has its drawbacks, so it should be abolished."
Zhao Huan's heart moved. He had long wanted to adjust his central authority, but the time had not come. Now, after several rounds of his purge, many factions in the court have suffered severe blows, and it is time to make reasonable adjustments.
"What are the disadvantages of these three provinces and six ministries?"
"The Secretary of the Central Committee is responsible for making decisions, the subordinates are responsible for refuting, and the Secretary of the Shang Dynasty is responsible for executing the government orders. If the Secretary of the Central Committee makes a decision and the subordinates pass it, and the six departments of the Shang Dynasty do not agree with it, and there will be negligence when the execution is carried out, and the best results cannot be achieved. At that time, the emperor will hold the responsibility of the Secretary of the Shang Dynasty for execution, and the Secretary of the Shang Dynasty for the Secretary of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School
After Qin Hui said something, the ministers of both palaces nodded, and even Liu Yanzong, Shi Xun and others agreed.
After the end of the Tang Dynasty and the Five Dynasties, it was actually developing in this direction. However, at the beginning of the founding of the Song Dynasty, three provinces had always existed, and two prefectures and three ministries were established. During the reign of Emperor Taizong of Song Dynasty, a bloated bureaucratic system naturally grew up in such an excess soil.
Zhao Huan asked again: "Do you have any other opinions?"
Everyone was silent, and the emperor said, "As Qin Hui said, Xu Churen was in charge of the Eastern Government Government Affairs Hall, and was in charge of the Ministry of Personnel, the Ministry of Works, the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Commerce, the Ministry of Revenue. Li Gang led the Western Government Privy Council, the Ministry of War and the original Twelve Houses. Liu Yanzong was in charge of the Political and Propaganda Department, Dali Temple and the Ministry of Justice. Shi Xun was in charge of Jinzou Academy, the National School. The Zhou Dynasty was in charge of finance, taxation, salt and iron. He was in charge of the censorship. The two governments and three departments, Hanlin, and the power of inspecting decisions were approved by me. They all took their own responsibilities, performed their own duties, and performed their own affairs."
The emperor added: "Then the assessment will not only be based on the results of political achievements as the assessment, but also the number of officials and the budget, and the time it takes to be spent in the assessment."
"Your Majesty's wise!"
Zhao Huan also said: "The matter of streamlining officials is led by Xu Churen and Liu Yanzong assisted. This starts from Jingji Road, Jingxi Road, Jingdong Road, Hebei Road, Hedong Road and Yanyun. I will see the results within three months."
"Abide by the order!"
When all the ministers retreated, only Liu Yanzong stayed. The emperor said, "I need the most detailed list of this rebellion. I will first find out all the people hiding in the court."
"yes!"
Chapter completed!
