Three Kingdoms

  Chapter 842 Another Battlefield (2)

  While replying to the relevant official documents, Fei Qian was also thinking about the characters he is now covering, not to mention those who are biased towards generals, but only those who are biased towards civil affairs, which are still a little less.

Cui Hou is now mainly in favor of business and trade, while Zaozhi is in favor of Sangzi, Du Yuan is focusing on logistics supplies, Linghu Shaoduo is still dealing with the affairs of the academy, and Chang Lin is in Yong'an The county seat is in charge of people's livelihood, while Tai Shiming is in charge of Huang's workshop and related technical work.

   It seems that there are quite a lot, but in fact there are still too few people using it.

  Furthermore, Fei Qian also needs to establish a slightly more perfect model to promote the smooth operation of many matters on the increasingly large site.

  The prime minister system is enviable.

   Not only was he feared by the officials, but even the emperor.

  Since the Han Dynasty, it has been a struggle between imperial power and ministerial power. At the beginning of the Qin Dynasty, the position of prime minister was officially established, but Liu Bang and Xiao He made a **** start. Although they were favored for a while, in the end Xiao He had to be imprisoned at the age of sixty. It cast a shadow over the entire prime minister system in the Han Dynasty.

   Later, it was changed to Sangong, and even the mighty Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty transferred back the authority of administration, and used Confucian scholars who had no foundation at that time to deal with general livelihood affairs, but created the foundation of the current gentry.

Throughout the prime minister's life, he basically fought with the emperor, with officials, with local gentry forces, and even with heaven and earth. For example, when solar eclipses, lunar eclipses, droughts, floods, etc., the first responsible person is bound to I found the prime minister here.

   As a result, it will either become the model of Prime Minister Zhuge, don’t worry about anything, do it yourself, and then die from exhaustion, which also delays the growth of the next generation;

   But is such a political model appropriate?

Although the current official affairs have been handled through cooperation, Fei Qian still has a headache. The current battle of Yinshan has come to an end, and he also needs time to stock up some more food, grass and equipment, so now the focus will naturally shift from the military to the military. In terms of administration, as for the high-level structure of administration, how can it be more suitable for the current situation?

   Well, what will be the political structure of the dynasty in the future?

  Tang Dynasty, seems to be three provinces and six divisions?

  The Song Dynasty was the Privy Council, Zhongshu Xianggong, and the Great Censor?

   Then Yuan Dynasty, well, ignore it...

  Ming Dynasty, cabinet? Then, partisanship?

  In the Qing Dynasty, the Iron Hat King Ba, uh, wrong, it was Wang Daba, um, not right, the Eight Great Kings? Forget it, I'm really not familiar with it, so let's ignore it...

  The three provinces and six ministries of the Tang Dynasty seem to be splitting the power of the prime minister at first glance, but in fact they have divided the imperial power and the power of the prime minister. But does this kind of treatment sometimes achieve good results?

The three provinces and six ministries are not the same as the separation of powers in later generations. The legislative power is actually still in the hands of the emperor. The supervision function under the sect is more like a tool used by the prime minister to fight against the imperial power. As the actual executive organ, the Shangshu Province seems to be excluded. The competition between imperial power and ministerial power is mentioned, but in fact, there is also a delicate balance between ministerial power and imperial power in the relationship between Shangshu Province and Liubu. Xiangquan's only obedience.

  Although Li Shimin was very talented and successful in dividing the power of the prime minister who was the representative of the sons of the gentry, the gentry inside the gentry had been broken into pieces, and they fought against the emperor to the end, which continued until the Song Dynasty.

In the Song Dynasty, Zhao Boss sent troops to the two lakes, destroyed Nanping and Hunan, took over Shu, took down the Southern Han, and overthrew the Southern Tang. It seemed to unify the chaotic situation of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, and then naturally began to think about how to continue the Zhao family dynasty. For a long time. After thinking about it, Boss Zhao seems to think that everything can be settled by dealing with two problems, one is the separatist regime of Pan Town, and the other is the centralization of power.

Boss Zhao thought so, so he did it. He called all the gangsters to drink a glass of wine, and then gained the reputation of "a glass of wine releases the power of soldiers". Know the general, the general does not know the soldier. It worked well at the beginning, but it also planted the disastrous consequences of the late Song Dynasty's strong Wen and weak military.

  So how can we centralize power? After spending countless brain cells, Mr. Zhao created an unprecedented system of separating official titles from real positions. Unless Mr. Zhao approves, officials usually have false titles and have no actual power. The Zhongshu, the Privy Council, the three censors, etc. restrain each other, and the picture is extremely beautiful, but Mr. Zhao can't imagine that the strict political system he has carefully formulated has caused "redundant soldiers, redundant officials, and redundant expenses" to argue with each other. dire situation.

Emperor Taizu of the Ming Dynasty abolished the prime minister and monopolized the power. However, the later emperors of the Ming Dynasty did not have the energy and strategy like him. Many things could only be decided by the palace scholars who were only consultants. Some emperors were even treated as pigs by the cabinet. keep.

After the development of the cabinet political model in the three stages of the Ming Dynasty, in the Qing Dynasty, the emperor with a tail feared and rejected the Han people. Emperor Yongzheng also set up a military aircraft office to lift up the palace and grand scholars to truly eliminate the threat of the Han bureaucratic group to the monarchy. However, after the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom was wiped out, the local Han governors became prime ministers. If Cixi hadn't suppressed them, I don't know how many Cao Mengde and Zhu Quanzhong would have appeared.

  Any system in the hands of China's shrewd emperors and officials, even if there is no problem for a while, as time goes by, infinite flaws will be found.

  Political system in the future?

  The political systems of capitalism and socialism? Sorry, the ideal is very delicious, but the reality is very dry and ugly. If the people do not have a certain amount of knowledge and culture, they will not be able to control it. Even in later generations, when the people are generally educated, in the United States, which is known as the most free and democratic country, it will still appear. A game of buying and selling political power.

The format of official documents is not a big or small problem, but the political structure of the ruling government is definitely a major issue with far-reaching implications. Now everything here in Feiqian is new and there are not many people, so even if there is something to do, it will be fine to temporarily deploy it , but with the expansion of the region, it is definitely no longer possible to do everything by yourself, so the framework is very important at the beginning, otherwise, when the political structure starts to grow upwards, it will be found that the foundation is crooked, then it will definitely be very painful .

Now, regarding Fei Qian’s civil affairs, one is the reform of the official document format, and the other is the issue of the governing system. After saying hello, I prepared to go to the backyard to take a rest, and prepared to organize my thoughts to see which way was more suitable.
