Chapter 587: Zhu Jaeji's Ambition
Zhu Zaiji sent out a soul torture, and everyone present focused on Yan Song, as the first assistant, where his responsibility lies. Reinstated, reforming the official system, such a big thing, you, the head of a hundred officials, have nothing to say?
Yan Song grinned, speechless.
The bureaucracy is not dead, but once it is properly organized and operational, it will follow the consistent laws of birth, old age, sickness and death like an organism.
For example, the bureaucracy is constantly increasing its own benefits, constantly complicating procedures so that outsiders can't see the doorway, and constantly expanding its scale to resist change...... This is not difficult to understand, just like ordinary people, change your living habits, don't drink fat house happy water, don't eat greasy, exercise every day to lose weight, and refuse cyberpunk, it is estimated that you will not be able to stand it.
What's more, Zhu Zaiji made a drastic move, completely changed the cabinet, changed the six ministries, and changed the entire model of power operation.
Elder Yan Ge, you have to get hard!
Yan Song can be regarded as having experienced the feeling of being expected by everyone, he did not enjoy it at all, only a strong sense of helplessness. His current identity is not a serious leader of a hundred officials, after all, there is a prince and princess!
And the ministers of the DPRK and China, how many are willing to work hard with him? At most, these things will wave their flags and shout in the back, and when they hit the south wall and their heads bleed, they will only celebrate with their crowns, and they will not feel distressed at all.
What's more, even if all the ministers support him, what can he do, it has only been twenty years, and he was still on the front line of bringing down Yang Tinghe! How big was the difference in strength that time? Who won in the end?
You forgot, but I Yan Song didn't forget!
Besides, why should I go against the prince?
It doesn't make sense!
Over the years, the original imperial party, Yang Yiqing, Zhang Xuan, Gui Cao, Xia Yan, and Fang Xianfu...... Where have all these people gone? Even Wang Yue resigned and went to sea, why did I Lao Yan stay standing?
Do we have what it takes?
On the contrary, I Yan Song has the most no idea, I am soft and charming, I will meet ...... The prince wants to reform, I support it fully, you can scold as much as you like, anyway, I am a dead pig and I am not afraid of boiling water.
Yan Song not only did not object, but also took the lead in thanking Da En!
The most difficult step in my imagination was actually passed without being shocked, and even Zhu Zaiji didn't expect it, was it a bit smooth and excessive?
"Senior brother, it can't be that you are secretly helping, right?"
Wang Qing blinked his eyes, and said with a smile: "Your Highness, I am so young and have no ability, how can I help Your Highness?" It must be His Royal Highness's wisdom and martial arts, and his extraordinary shots can deter the court and come naturally! ”
Zhu Zaiji didn't believe it at all, he snorted with his nose. I don't know how to do anything else, but I learned exactly the same as the one that the master pretended to be stupid and stunned.
Zhu Zaiji pondered for a long time, then suddenly got up, pulled over a chair, and asked Wang Qing to sit down.
"Senior brother, how about we talk?"
Wang Qing hesitated for a moment and nodded.
"Senior brother, do you know which emperor the master admires?"
Wang Qingdao: "Naturally, it's Emperor Taizu." ”
Zhu Zaiji said: "Taizu is certainly martial and wise, and loves the people like a son. However, in recent years, Master has written more and more books. Master's admiration for the First Emperor has reached the point of overflowing. Zhu Zaiji sighed: "I also talked to Zhu Daozi and them, and I learned that in fact, the West has also been unified and once had a huge empire." The empire started out as a small city-state. ”
Wang Qingdao: "It's the Roman Empire!" ”
"Hmmm! Rome was constantly on expeditions, and with each place they conquered, they demanded allegiance from the local nobility, granted them citizenship, and asked them to provide the empire with food and soldiers to assist in the war. In this way, Rome grew larger and larger, encompassing the entire Mediterranean coast. ”
Wang Qing sighed: "There are indeed outstanding points, but it is a pity that after the fall of Rome, the West was divided and never unified." ”
Zhu Zaiji nodded, "That's right, junior brother, have you thought about it, if Qin Shi Huang ruled the world at the beginning, he still divided the nobles of the six countries and let them govern the fiefdoms, as long as they were loyal to Great Qin, in that case, what kind of road would the Central Plains land take?" ”
Wang Qing was silent, don't look at him and look at him, in fact, Wang Qing is better at reading than Zhu Zaiji, and even better than his father in many aspects. When Wang Qing was a child, he not only studied with Yang Yiqing, but also had a grandfather and grandson! Moreover, in order to repair books, Sun Jiao gathered a large number of Confucian scholars around him.
When Wang Qing was very young, he had already stuffed a lot of things in his head.
Indeed, the First Emperor was of extraordinary significance to China. Sweeping Liuhe, unifying China, how majestic!
But where is the cow in this matter?
Before the Qin State, there were also the three generations of Xia and Shang, and these three generations, without exception, all chose the sub-feudal system. After the Qin Dynasty, Xiang Yu also divided a large number of nobles from the Six Kingdoms, but he was killed by Liu Bang.
Although Liu Bang did not divide the feudal kings in a big way, he also reversed the wheel, and even divided many clan kings, which directly caused the later chaos.
Before Qin Shi Huang, the passage was divided, and after Qin Shi Huang, there were also attempts to restore the sub-feudal...... But from the very beginning, Qin Shi Huang firmly implemented the county system.
What's even more amazing is that even after more than 2,000 years, the framework of the county system has not changed.
Moreover, successive emperors also followed the model of emperors and officials governing the world, rather than emperors and nobles governing the world...... Looking at the world, the best thing about the first emperor is the creation of the system, that is, the management model, and the innovation of governing the world.
The three princes and nine kings, the civil official system, and the county system, these things can be called super innovations, all of which were realized in the hands of the first emperor and left behind for thousands of years.
The straight road of the Qin Dynasty was deserted, and the Great Wall of the Qin Dynasty collapsed, but the Qin system has been handed down, and it is vibrant, still leading the vast majority of countries.
Zhu Zaiji rushed and said: "Senior brother, in fact, the master has already seen that we have once again reached a critical juncture, and the decisions and arrangements we make now will definitely affect future generations for thousands of years." We can't be vulgar and focus on getting rich, on controlling all kinds of industries. We should plan for the future for the next generations. Zhu Zaiji took Wang Qing's hand movingly, and said with emotion: "Such a big thing, I can't do it alone, I can do things with me, only you, junior brother, you have to help senior brother!" ”
……
Many years later, Wang Qing recalled that he still couldn't help but sigh, the old Zhu family can really fool, if he was a little older and thought more, maybe he would choose a different path...... It's just that all this is destined to be an assumption, because he was indeed persuaded by Zhu Zaiji, and he also wanted to do something big.
Therefore, these two young people united, just like the alliance between Wang Yue and Zhu Houxi at the beginning.
In fact, compared with their parents, the conditions of the two of them are much better.
It's just that if you want to do such a big thing, it's not just a casual talk.
After Zhu Zaiji added the rank of university scholar to the ministers, Wang Qing then recruited talents from all over the world as a guest of the prince of the East Palace to form the prince's staff.
There are a few henchmen and strategists around the superior, and it is also normal.
But this time it was different, Wang Qing, the kid, first wrote letters to Qian Dehong and Wang Ji, after the death of Yang Ming Gong and Wang Gen successively, these two were already the leaders of the world's psychology.
In addition, they also have a double identity, that is, they followed Sun Jiao and edited books in Chengde.
This set of books was once named "Jiajing Canon", intended to benchmark "Yongle Emperor", and later as the content became richer and richer, it was simply called "Encyclopedia", since it was an encyclopedia, there were too many people involved in the compilation.
These scholars constitute a formidable force, and they have great influence in both the government and the opposition.
If you change to any of the ministers in the court, you can't gather them together.
But Wang Qing has this ability, he is not only Wang Yue's son, but also Sun Jiao's grandson, and Yang Yiqing's closed disciple, whether it is a disciple of Xinxue or a remnant Confucian scholar, he is willing to give this young man a face.
That's all it takes, Wang Qing also invited a group of people, Yang Bo, Qiu Luan, Guo Xun, Botu, Xu Yande...... The common characteristics of these people are that they are from prominent backgrounds, and at the same time, they have many industries in their hands and their influence is amazing.
The most amazing thing is that in this group of people, there is even the original Mongolian Great Khan Buchi, who is simply caught in one net!
"Third Senior Brother, why don't you let your sister-in-law come forward! I've got a letter of appointment for her! ”
Yang Bo glanced at Wang Qing, "You kid don't get cheap and behave, I can come because the master is not here, I am afraid that there will be rumors that I am bullying my junior brother!" ”
Wang Qing hurriedly smiled, "Third Senior Brother, of course I know that you love me, you are afraid that others will bully me, right?" ”
Yang Bo was even more angry, and poked Wang Qing's forehead with his hand.
"You're so stupid! Don't talk about marrying my sister to the prince, I even got into it myself! Yang Bo exclaimed angrily: "You said that we have such a huge force, why are you waving the flag and shouting for their old Zhu family!" ”
Wang Qing smiled and didn't explain, in fact, Yang Bo didn't really instigate Wang Qing to fight against Zhu Zaiji when he said this, since he could respond, he had already shown Yang Bo's attitude.
Later, scholars from Xishan Academy, led by Zhao Zhenji, Chen Yiqin, and even Michelangelo and Copernicus, also came.
The last group of people were representatives from various provinces, including Korea, the Western Regions, Annam, and Luzon.
In this way, under the leadership of Wang Qing, more than 500 people with high reputation in various fields and regions gathered in the capital.
At this point, everyone understands that it is by no means as simple as finding a few staff members for Zhu Zaiji. The personnel in this can even form another set of people to directly replace the six departments and nine qing.
Yan Song really wanted to continue pretending to be his grandson, but the problem was that he couldn't pretend anymore.
"Your Highness, the old minister has no talent and no virtue, I just ask His Highness to allow the old minister to return to his hometown, please ask His Highness for permission!" Yan Song cried and worshiped on the ground, waiting for the verdict of fate......
