Chapter 285 Restructuring Ideas
Seeing that Fusu had already made a decree to elect a queen in the world, the old people who were so concerned about Fusu's marriage because they had nothing to do temporarily relaxed. This also made Fusu feel relieved. Now that the decree has been
After the order was issued, Fusu also knew that there was no possibility of changing his words, and everything could only go with the flow, and this matter could not be resolved in a short time, so he put aside this major post-election matter.
I started to focus on national affairs and political affairs again.
With the end of the war, Fusu followed the policy of recuperating with the people when the Western Han Dynasty was founded, so the world was very stable. Since they had food and clothing, the people in various places would not always think about rebellion as before.
. Seeing that the country was showing stability, Fusu began to want to take action against the current political system. To be honest, for Fusu, a person with modern thinking, the system of three officials and nine ministers established in the Qin Dynasty was really frustrating.
There is something strange about him
He felt that although he had been emperor for some time, he still didn't know much about the functions of some officials, and he also felt that there were too many and complicated official positions in the court, which was really not conducive to the operation of the state machinery. Since
When I came to this era, I should change the history while also making some changes to the system so that China can develop faster! With this mentality, Fusu began to conceive of how to change the country.
details.
Fusu compared the political systems of various dynasties and dynasties in history that he knew, and even thought about some foreign things, but in the end he gave up on the constitutional monarchy and democracy that appeared in the twentieth century.
System. These systems can only be used when the people's intelligence is completely open. And the level of education of the people in the Qin Dynasty is not generally low. Only a very small number of people are literate, let alone other things. And Fusu also knows that if it is so
done, all
All the ministers will oppose him, and no one can accept this kind of thing that is completely beyond this era. In Fusu's heart, there is another most important reason that he does not want to say, that is, mortals have selfish motives, and a thousand
Of course, he hoped that the country he had conquered with so much hard work would always be in the hands of himself or his descendants. He was not a saint and could let power slip away from his hands. In this way, Fusu could only control the country in the past dynasties.
Find the one that suits you among the political systems of the past dynasties.
If you talk about which dynasty is the most powerful in China, everyone will name the Han and Tang Dynasties without hesitation, so later the talents in the Central Plains were called Han people, and the Chinese gathering places in foreign countries were called Chinatown. Fusu was no different from ordinary people.
, he also immediately thought of the Han and Tang dynasties, and then he continued to think about what the political systems of these two dynasties could be learned from.
As the dynasty that followed the Qin Dynasty, the Han Dynasty basically retained all the administrative plans of the Qin Dynasty, but its core had a slight change, that is, it changed from the severe punishment advocated by the Legalists to foreign Confucianism and internal law.
With the rule of Confucianism, people will stay in peace and contentment.
It was not until hundreds of years later that the Yellow Turban Uprising broke out when he could no longer survive. Fusu naturally decided to apply the Confucian doctrine for his own use. This was very helpful to the consolidation of the regime, but he did not know how to use it.
Fusu was still not very familiar with the official system, so he chose to ignore it.
Next he looked at the Tang Dynasty. The imperial examination system and the three provinces and six ministries system jumped into Fusu's mind at the same time. Fusu was quite familiar with the three provinces and six ministries system, especially the officials, households, rituals, and soldiers.
The six departments of punishment and work were used until the Qing Dynasty, which shows how suitable it is for the emergence of China. The same goes for the imperial examination system. Until later generations, the college entrance examination, high school entrance examination and even the civil service examination were all replicas of that system. The imperial examination system can make
Those ordinary people who have no chance to become officials can also have a way to enter the political arena. This is very helpful to open up the people's intelligence, because if you want to be an official, you have to study, and only after studying can the talents of others be developed. And support
Su also knew that once these people had an idea, they would no longer focus on rebellion, but would study hard to gain fame. In this way, he could invisibly minimize the possibility of rebellion among the people.
.And those scholars will become a powerful force supporting his court, so Fusu believes that this is a policy that should be implemented.
After deciding on the central system, Fusu turned his attention to the local level. Obviously, the current county system is actually imperfect and not as good as the prefecture and county system of the Han Dynasty. However, Fusu still thought that the reason why the Han Dynasty collapsed was because
Excessive local power led to warlord separatism, and in the end even the emperor was held hostage. In the late Tang Dynasty, like the Han Dynasty, he naturally abandoned the systems of these two dynasties. In terms of internal stability, Fusu
He felt that the Song Dynasty was a good model. Unfortunately, the various systems of the Song Dynasty were too complicated for someone like Fusu, who had only a little knowledge of history, to understand them. So he still felt that he should use the practices of the Yuan and Ming dynasties.
The provincial system is better.
In the past few days, Fusu has been constantly combining the system he knows with the current reality, trying to find a system that is conducive to his rule and development, so that the Qin Dynasty can become a Chinese nation like the Tang and Han Dynasties.
Of course, all of this is just slowly taking shape in Fusu's mind. As for realizing all of this, I'm afraid it won't be complete in ten or twenty years, and Fusu may not even be able to see it in his lifetime.
Realization, he just hopes that he can blaze such a broad road, and that future generations can continue to develop along this road, so that Da Qin can survive forever.
And just one day before Fusu thought of discussing the matter with Zhang Liang and Chen Ping, he thought of a further plan, which was to learn from the Ming Dynasty and set up a cabinet, so that he could ensure that no matter what the future,
Whether the emperor is good or not, at least he has a cabinet that can handle government affairs. Think of the Ming Dynasty. Although many emperors ignored court affairs, its development was faster than that of the later Qing Dynasty, and the emperors of the Qing Dynasty were all
He was very diligent. This was the benefit of the Ming Dynasty's cabinet system. Even if there was no good emperor, as long as the cabinet ministers were wise enough, the country could still develop well.
In this way, Fusu sorted out everything he had envisioned, and after a one-day meeting, he left four of his most trusted people, Zhang Liang, Chen Ping, Han Xin, and Meng Tian, to put forward his ideas.
At first, the four of them did not understand Fusu's sudden proposal to restructure. It was only because Fusu was eager to show his political ability after taking over the world. But as Fusu continued to
After explaining it carefully, people like Chen Ping and Zhang Liang who were very proficient in political affairs saw the beneficial side of his proposal. Especially when Fusu proposed using the imperial examination system to select officials through examinations.
The creative measures gave the two of them a refreshing feeling.
While he was surprised that Fusu could come up with such an ingenious move, Zhang Liang was also a little worried and said: "Although your Majesty's method can make more civilians become officials and thus increase the number of people who support our Qin Dynasty, those powerful people from all over the world will
How can people be willing to do so? I'm afraid they will do everything possible to obstruct it. Shang Yang's reform in the Qin Dynasty also aroused fierce opposition from the old nobles. If we do this now, it will happen again. "
Chen Ping laughed on the side and said: "Master Zhang is a little over-concerned. The world is different from before. The nobles back then were people who had inherited it for several generations. They had strength that even the king could not ignore, but now it is hundreds of times.
Those so-called famous families have already been overwhelmed by the wars in recent years, so how can they still have any remaining strength to oppose the emperor's measures?"
When Fusu heard this, he felt that it was very reasonable. He should indeed be grateful to those people from the six countries who revolted. In this way, those who might have hindered his reforms had fled to death, turning the resistance into
When he reached the youngest age, Fusu then said: "Zifang, in fact, if we talk about getting an official position based on knowledge, those who are most likely to be officials now are those from aristocratic families. After all, there are only a few literate people among the common people, let alone those who have enough knowledge."
They have come to participate in the imperial examination with their knowledge. Therefore, I predict that many people will not object to this imperial examination, and when they find out that this imperial examination will affect their status in the future, everything has become a conclusion."
Zhang Liang thought carefully that this was indeed the case, and stopped dwelling on this point, and began to discuss various other measures with Fusu and the others. This discussion lasted for a whole day, and after repeated consideration by several people, Fusu decided
First, he used the excuse that there were not enough officials in the DPRK and China to announce to the whole world the measures to select talents through the imperial examination. After the new policy of the imperial examination was accepted by people, other measures were slowly implemented.
Fusu knew that so many new systems could not be completed in a short period of time, so he agreed with their views and slowly changed everything in a gradual manner.
Fusu was already thinking about how to govern the country better so that the Qin Dynasty could go further, but the Huns would not let Fusu design their future so comfortably because they no longer had the food to survive, so
On a cold day in December, tens of thousands of Huns cavalry appeared outside the city of Yanmen County and launched an attack on this city with few people and soldiers.
Until now, the Huns had not sent troops to plunder, leaving the Qin army soldiers guarding the city defenseless. However, in one day, Yanmen County was broken, and the beacon was lit instantly, and it spread directly to the people guarding the north.
