Chapter 158: One Side Temperance (2)
December, 25th, the day of the morning meeting.
There are more people participating in the court meeting today, there are a hundred people, Li Xun and a few others, who have no real positions, but who have enough rank of loose officials, standing at the back of the team on the right, among these people, there is an acquaintance, Jingzhao Mansion Shaoyin Gou Changqing.
"Master Gou, what a coincidence!"
Li Xun whispered hello.
Shaoyin of Jingzhao Mansion is an official of the fourth grade, but Gou Changqing can come here, obviously his official position is above the fourth grade, and he has the qualification to observe the court meeting.
"Hehe, it's a coincidence, why is General Li here too?"
Gou Changqing seems to be in a very good mood, and it is true, he has friends in the ministry, and he got the exact news from his friends, Liu Zhongyuan is about to be transferred, and he is likely to be promoted and reused, and become the prefect of Jingzhao, which is a high-ranking official from the third grade, comparable to the position of the sixth minister, although it is much worse than Jingzhaoyin, but Gou Changqing is already very satisfied.
"Come and see the fun."
"Me too."
The two of them looked at each other, and they both chuckled quietly.
Gou Changqing did come to see the excitement today, in the past, he didn't have much opportunity to participate in the court meeting, but if he became the prefect of Jingzhao, then there would be more opportunities, so today I am familiar with the situation, and look at the daily procedures of the court meeting and the rhythm of discussing court affairs.
With the ringing of a bell, the hundred officials were silent and solemn.
Zhao Zhi walked out of the side door, sat on the dragon chair, and the hundred officials shouted long live.
Excuse me, flat body.
The pilgrimage began.
Li Xun, who was standing at the back, was a little excited, that confession was likely to have reached Zhao Zhi's hands, and it would definitely cause a fierce collision, and today's court meeting may be extremely exciting.
But the progress of the matter was greatly beyond Li Xun's expectations, the entire court meeting went on for more than an hour, and there was not even a word mentioned about the confession, and the entire court meeting was only repeatedly discussed around one thing, that is, the separation of Longyou.
When the Great Jin Dynasty was founded, the country was divided into ten provinces, to Wuzong, in order to prevent the military generals from having too much power and excessive concentration of troops, the national ten provinces were expanded to fifteen, and now there are thirteen states in Longyou, nearly 80,000 troops, too scattered, not a good thing, too centralized, and not a good thing, so the imperial court intends to subdivide the entire Longyou into three roads, Longyou South Road, Longyou North Road and Longyou West Road.
Longyou West Road, defend the Dashi Empire, Longyou South Road, defend Tubo, Gongwei Guannei Portal, Longyou North Road takes Liangzhou as the core, as the rear of Anbei, to prevent the Mobei Hu people.
The imperial court would send three military generals to serve as military commanders, and one of them would lead them to manage the military affairs of their respective territories.
Then there were some disagreements among the courtiers on the issue of the separation of military powers.
The reason is very simple, one side of the festival degree envoy, the military power is excessively concentrated, and the local government affairs and financial power are hijacked, the power of the festival degree envoy is very large, once in the place for a long time, the prestige is high enough, the power is strong enough, it will confront the imperial court, and the division of self-reliance, so for the festival degree envoy, the imperial court will divide its military power, and there will never be a situation of three powers in one, and there is a strict limit on the time of its tenure, at this point, Wu Zong has done a very good job, and will not take private emotions as reason, even if he is close to the trusted confidant, It will not give more than the right outside the system, but the three generations of emperors after Wuzong are destroying this system and giving their favorite ministers, too much trust and rights, the five towns of Hebei are a very distinct column, the power is too large, leading to the final separation of the imperial court, the separation of self-reliance, the success of the five towns of Hebei, the compromise and powerlessness of the imperial court, greatly enhanced the determination and confidence of other festivals in the world to make self-reliance, Pingzong in his later years, the central forbidden army still has a strong force, under the persuasion of some ministers, Pingzong finally made up his mind, Send troops to Hebei, as long as you destroy Hebei, the most concentrated and most powerful feudal town in the world, the rest of the festival will definitely be frightened, and will be attached to the imperial court again, which is why, Pingzong will ignore the persuasion of the vast majority of civil and military officials in the Manchu Dynasty, and insist on raising the country's troops to conquer Hebei, the idea is good, but unfortunately, it ended in a fiasco, shaking the country, and the last bit of confidence is exhausted, and the Great Jin Dynasty has been declining since then.
The decay of the Great Jin Dynasty, to Zhao Zhi here, more than 20 years of hard work, finally have some back, he himself often to the deeds of Wuzong self-encouragement, many systems in the national policy, are in accordance with the trajectory of the Wuzong period, such as the Jiedu Envoy, Zhao Zhi is strictly controlled, of course, Zhao Zhi is not as good as Wuzong, in many things are still a little misguided, but Zhao Zhi reigned for more than 20 years, four new Jiedu envoys, the rights of individual Jiedu envoys have been quite strong, faintly there is a suspicion of self-respect, But they all have one thing in common, they can't meddle in local government affairs and taxation, which leads to the fact that no matter how strong their military strength is, they still have to rely on the court to survive, and they dare not turn their faces with the court in the real sense.
The court meeting has been going on for more than two hours, and after listening to the opinions of the ministers, Zhao Zhi has a general idea in his heart.
Of the seven ministers of the political hall, except for Liu Wei and Yang Daosi, who continued to recuperate, the remaining five people all participated in today's court meeting.
In the court, the discussion of the ministers gradually calmed down, Zhao Zhi nodded, and said lightly: "The military department will draw up the document as soon as possible, and after the government hall signs and agrees, an official order will be formed and conveyed to the world." ”
"Wechen obeys."
Zhan Tai Yi Huan, the left attendant of the military department, stood up from among the courtiers and bowed down to receive the order.
Ma Wu, the right attendant of the military department, is still in Longyou, after the battle of Longyou, Zhao Zhi has never recruited him back, it can be guessed that the parting of the way in Longyou, I am afraid that in Zhao Zhi's heart, he has already had this plan.
Zhan Tai Yi Huan has just been appointed as the left waiter of the Ministry of War not long ago, he was the right waiter of the household department, transferred to the military department as the left waiter, and it is half a level lower, despite this, Zhan Tai Yihuan is quite happy, he has been in the position of the right waiter of the household department, has been in the position of the whole six-year, thinking about further, that is, to participate in the political affairs or to enter the political affairs hall as the post of the six Shangshu, this step seems to be only half a step, but it is a thousand difficulties, in the past few years, Xiao Zheng has not won the battle, and Qin Anming has not won the battle, and the household department Shangshu He Zhongkai has just passed fifty, Younger than him, politically naïve, and weak-charactered, but this person also has great advantages, that is, the ability to manage money and manage money, famous all over the world, Zhao Zhi attaches great importance to him, he is in this position, as long as he does not make a big mistake, Zhan Tai Yihuan knows that he has no chance to replace him, he can't move, then he can only move himself.
The Ministry of War is one of the six departments, the highest ranking department, second only to the Ministry of Officials, its right waiter is a great chance to enter the political hall for the phase, the current right waiter is Ma Wu, but he is in Longyou, now Longyou is about to part ways, divided into three sections, Zhao Zhi has not let him return, its intention has been very obvious, that is, to leave him in Longyou, the section of the party, in this way, his right waiter's position, it will be vacant, Zhan Tai Yihuan feels that he has a great chance to go further, to replace his position as the right waiter of the military department, If you enter the political hall as a minister, you will be greatly promising.
