Chapter 333: Nanjing Custom

Xu Wenjue!

This noble leader who held great power in Nanjing but did nothing in history was the first to go out and surrender to Taqing, so why did he forget him.

Zhu Youxiao got up slightly, his eyes were like electricity, and he said to him:

"Aiqing cares so much about state affairs, I am very relieved, in this case, the third battalion of the Jiangnan camp will be handed over to you to bring, and I will bring out a strong army!"

Xu Wenjue was overjoyed and hurriedly lowered his head to prove himself:

"Your Majesty, rest assured, the ministers will do their best to lead the nobles to guard the south of the Yangtze River for the Ming Dynasty!"

This time, the six departments and institutes in Nanjing were abolished, and the annual expenses in the future were saved, and this was only one reason, although Nanjing's Nanzhili Province has been divided into Jiangbei Province and Jinling Province, but also includes the current Jiangsu and Anhui Provinces.

In the current Apocalypse year, the legendary sprout of capitalism is not known, but when you come down, the economy here is developed and the trade is prosperous, but Zhu Youxiao is in his eyes.

In various parts of the Central Plains, the second year of the successive disasters and famines is just the beginning.

Starting from the third year of the Apocalypse, in the next 20 years, it will only intensify, in addition to promoting sweet potato planting, the money bags and rice bags that the imperial court relies on for disaster relief and reconstruction are still in the south dominated by Jinling.

At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, two capitals were set up, the capital was Beijing, the Northern Yuan Dynasty was set up, and Nanjing was the capital to control the money and grain in the south of the Yangtze River, which was Zhu Di's fundamental idea.

In this sense, in the Ming Dynasty, Beijing was the political center, Nanjing was the economic center, and the so-called "two capitals and thirteen provinces", the two capitals must be ranked first.

If you want to solve the problem that Qi Jin said, this is very simple, it is one thing to cut the six ministries and institutes, and it is another thing to divide the provinces in Nanzhili.

Whether or not to cancel the political status of Nanzhili is another matter.

Jinling is set to be in the line and cancel the status of staying in the capital, and it has only been more than a month now, if you want to change back, this is completely too late.

As for the change of the day, Zhu Youxiao doesn't care about this, what can maximize the benefits, what is naturally good.

If you care about this, you just don't want to reform, stick to the rules and wait to die.

Zhu Youxiao snorted, turned his gaze to the others, and said lightly:

"What the two ministers said, I thought about it again and again, and I thought it was true."

"In this way, I will adopt your opinions, and then set Jinling as the capital of Liudu, and you can be called Jinling or Nanjing in the future."

"Second, restore the status of Jinling Province and Jiangbei Province as Nanzhili, but the abolition of the six ministries and courts must be implemented."

"In this way, the guards of the two places are still under the pro-military system of the Beijing Guard, and they are under the jurisdiction of the Governor's Office of the Five Armies, and the problem of excessive powers of the military department will naturally be eliminated."

"Third, the political envoys of Jinling Province and Jiangbei Province will be integrated with the official system of Yu Province, and they will be retained, but I plan to set up a new Counselor's Institute in Jinling."

When the words landed, hundreds of officials discussed, and Wang Zaijin said:

"Dare to ask Your Majesty, is this Counselor Aircraft Maintenance Institute the same as the former Nanjing Counselor Aircraft Officer and Cooperative Garrison Officer?"

After saying that, everyone turned their eyes on, very curious.

If this is the case, the authority of the leading officials of the Counsellor's Institute of Machinery and Technology will overshadow the governors of Jinling and Jiangbei, and they will have the military and political power of the two places.

This kind of power is equivalent to the collection of governors and governors of a province, and it is no longer enough to describe it as a feudal official, which is equivalent to the rarely experienced governors of three places and five provinces.

Moreover, there is also a problem, the governors and even the governors in various places are only set up when there is something to do, and they are removed as soon as the matter is dismissed, and it is never a permanent official position.

For example, Zhu Xieyuan, who supervised the general army of the Seven Towns this time, was only a temporary supervisor, and he could manage the military and politics wherever he went.

Once the war was over, Zhu Xieyuan would either be promoted to another place as an official, or he would directly enter Beijing as an official, and it would be impossible for him to continue to be a supervisor.

Because the authority of this kind of thing is already equivalent to the "emperor" in the local area, and the general civil and military generals have the right to cut first and then play, and even important positions such as governors have the right to play again in advance.

The sheer size of his authority means that such a position must not be established for a long time.

But listening to the meaning of the Emperor of the Apocalypse, it is not surprising that the Nanjing Counselor's Institute will always be established, unless it is abolished by the monarch of later generations.

That thing, although the authority is not as big as that of the overseer, is also too big......

Zhu Youxiao waved his hand, stopped the discussion of hundreds of officials, and said:

"I also listened to what the two Aiqing said, and occasionally thought about it, and said it to the Zhuqing, if it is not right, you can discuss it again."

"The Counsellor's Aircraft Academy, unlike the cabinet and military engine room of the Beijing Division, has a Privy Council and three partial rooms, and the powers and responsibilities of each side room will be determined in the Privy Council, reported to Beijing, and finally decided by me."

"The Privy Council has set up a counselor and a minister of machinery, who is the second grade, and has the rank of head of the household department and the head of the military department, and manages the grain storage and military preparation of the provinces in Jiangbei, Jinling and the south."

"Since then, the right hand of the Imperial Court of the Metropolitan Procuratorate has been on duty in the Nanjing Counselor's Machinery Institute, leading the provinces of Jiangbei, Jinling and the south to inspect the imperial history and be responsible for the case."

"In the Privy Council, there are also subordinate officials such as the secretary, the general judge, and the director, who are responsible for the armament, civil and judicial matters of the Jiangbei, Jinling and southern provinces, and assist the counsellor and the Minister of Aircraft to report to Beijing."

"In addition to the Privy Council, the Counsellor's Aircraft Council has three other rooms."

"First, it is the place where the eunuchs left behind in the old palace sit on duty, which is called the inner prison room."

"Leading the prisons, bureaus, and health centers of the mausoleums from the central capital to the southern provinces, responsible for the maintenance of the mausoleums, reporting personnel, and contacting the inner court of the Beijing Division."

"Second, it is the place where the commander of the third battalion of the Jiangnan battalion sits on duty, and it is called the Zhangxun room."

"Lead the sons and daughters of the princes, hous, and earls of the provinces of Jiangbei, Jinling and Nandi, and be responsible for the affairs of the lords' mansions, the military affairs of the third battalion of the Jiangnan battalion, and the reporting of the personnel of the guards of the lords and nobles."

"Third, it is the place where the chief superintendent of the Nanjing Governor's Department of Jinyiwei sits on duty, which is called the Royal Jinfang."

"Leading the Jiangbei, Jinling and Southern Provinces Supervision Division, Nanbei Town Fu Division Jinyi Wei Official School, responsible for daily inspections, major case investigations, complete related affairs, and report to Beijing."

After a series of finished speaking, Zhu Youxiao's face did not change, looking at the officials who were already stunned at the steps, he raised his eyebrows slightly, and leaned back in the chair.

Such a detailed plan and personnel arrangement, this was directly thought of after listening to Wang Yongguang's suggestion?

No way!

I am afraid that the Emperor of the Apocalypse had already discussed it with his confidants and important ministers, and then instructed Wang Yongguang to put it forward at today's court meeting!

He actually knew about this kind of thing for a long time, and he risked everyone's taboo to bring it up, this Wang Yongguang, I still trusted him so much before, and he didn't show any performance for such a big thing.

It seems that Wang Yongguang has long been a eunuch...

Wang Yongguang didn't expect that this mention would bring much shock to the Ming Dynasty, and it also made him label a eunuch from then on.

But the matter has come to this point, let them scold, compared to being scolded, keeping the existing authority and gaining the trust of the emperor is the most important thing.

Zhu Youxiao looked at everyone's frowning expressions, laughed a few times, and said:

"Counselor of the Minister of Aircraft, if he has good official performance in the Nanjing Counselor's Aircraft Academy, he can directly enter the cabinet with this and assist me in military affairs."

"What do you think of it now?"

This... Doesn't this mean that this Counselor's Locomotive Institute is equivalent to a direct train for Jiangnan officials to enter the cabinet?

The officials looked at each other a few times, and they all knew it.

In the past, being an official in the south was almost equivalent to being degraded, let alone entering the cabinet, it was difficult to ascend to the sky if you wanted to be a Beijing official again.

This Nanjing Counselor's Institute not only consuls the functions and powers of the southern provinces, but also has the quota for direct entry into the cabinet, and there are such good things in the world!

Nothing to say, what is there to hesitate about.

The court meeting lasted for half an hour, and when they entered, the ministers and officials looked solemn and the atmosphere was solemn, but when they came out, everyone was smiling and discussing the benefits that this change would bring to themselves.

As for Zhu Youxiao, he returned to the apse and called Fu Yingxing, the head of the East Factory, Wang Chaofu, the steward of the Qianqing Palace, and Tian Ergeng, the governor of Jinyiwei, to secretly order something.
