Chapter 844: Chicken Si Chen

"If you listen to it, you will be clear, and if you believe it, you will be dark, and you must see the essence through the appearance." Easier said than done.

Without first-hand intelligence gathering, how can you look beyond appearances? If there is no intelligence to confirm the authenticity of the information to ensure that it is not deceived by others, how can it be understood by listening?

All in all, in short, people are the most difficult to figure out, for the long-term stability of the powerful Ming Empire, it is necessary to keep power in the cage of the system, not to allow any officials to fish in the country, and not to let any powerful people be lawless.

Jinyiwei and Dongchang are the swords of the Son of Heaven hanging over the heads of civil and military generals, and under the long ringing of the alarm bell, it is difficult for some civil and military officials to give birth to greed.

Jinyiwei and Dongchang were only responsible to the emperor, they were the eyes and ears of the emperor, and their opponents were the enemy countries and the bureaucratic elites of their own country, and they did not manage civil lawsuits.

Huang Sheng also strives to make Jinyiwei's office locations in Beizhen Fusi and Nanzhen Fusi into places where ordinary people can pour out their grievances and suffer unfair treatment, and open up a green channel for the people to sue officials.

Although the new Ming Empire cannot talk about high salaries and incorruptible pensions, the amount of money given has reached more than five times that of the same grade officials of the original Ming Dynasty.

Huang Sheng has begun to select talents in an eclectic manner, and many former Ming civil and military generals who have been persuaded to enter have also obtained corresponding positions, and some civil and military generals who have no real materials have given them a fictitious title and a mixed retirement.

The new Ming Empire is rich and wealthy, and it doesn't care about these money, as long as the acres of land in the hands of these people are redeemed and state-owned.

To manage a huge empire, of course, the state apparatus will be completed, and the original "Nanming" institutions will of course be upgraded.

Of course, the Ming Empire's household department is a great event, the Ministry of Rites is Xu Guangqi, the Ministry of Industry is Zhao Shimin, the Ministry of Criminal Affairs is given to Lu Xiangsheng, the candidate for the Ministry of Officials is Mao Yuanyi, and the Ministry of War must be Huang Dongshan.

The left imperial history of the Imperial Court is Sun Chuanting, and the right imperial history is Li Zhongzheng. Sun Yuanhua became the left waiter of the Ministry of Works.

In addition to retaining the original six ministries of the Ming Dynasty, the new dynasty also added the Ministry of Science and Technology, the Ministry of Health, the Ministry of Commerce and Trade, the Ministry of Railways and National Highways, the Ministry of Education, the Propaganda Department, the Ministry of State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission, and the Ministry of Securities and Regulation.

Most of the officials of these eight departments came from the "Nanming" family, and Hu Jianya, Wu Youxing, Fang Yizhi, Bian Zhiming, Li Ximing, Gu Shanhai, and so on have all been reused.

There is another measure in the new dynasty that is surprising, a large number of women have become senior members of the fourth rank and above, and there are actually imperial concubines and official positions. This is not surprising, Gu Ling'er and Zhao Rui were originally directors and executives of "Huaxia Daqian Village", and now they belong to the Ministry of State-owned Assets.

The healthy development of the capital market is inseparable from management and supervision, and Bai Peony and Lan Meiniang have managed stock exchanges for many years, and it is natural for them to become the secretary and waiter of the Ministry of Securities Regulatory Affairs.

The propaganda work has always been carefully planned by Lan Caier, Rumeng, Xu Fojia, Liu Ruyi, etc., and the results are obvious to all.

So many women have become high-ranking officials in the Ming Dynasty, and the people of the original "Nanming" are happy to see it, and everyone talks about it, causing too many girls to study more seriously.

On the contrary, the original Da Ming civil and military forces all felt that the hearts of Si Chen were ancient, and the blessings and misfortunes were unpredictable.

However, the female relatives of their family learned that the new dynasty really used women as officials, and they were inexplicably excited, and the concubines and daughters pestered the lord one after another, asking to send them to study in the new school.

The etiquette of male superiority and female inferiority is in jeopardy, and Alexander, the former scholar of the Ming Dynasty, is inconvenient for them to openly oppose women as officials, because they found that several imperial concubines are also important ministers of the court, and all the female dependents in their own families are eager to do so.

The new dynasty has a new atmosphere, and those who are crowned princes and marquis do not know how many people are common, and those who are crowned kings will also be common.

Huang Sheng doesn't engage in the trick of being a king with a different surname, because the title of the new Ming Dynasty is just an honor and rank salary, and even the honor is stingy and refuses to give it to his hard-working subordinates, this emperor is definitely not a good emperor, and the boss who is reluctant to pay more wages is certainly not a good boss.

In order to be a good emperor and be a good boss of the Ming Empire, Huang Sheng was willing to pay high salaries to his management elites and give them high honors.

Although the enthronement ceremony has not yet been carried out, the new Ming Dynasty that has been combined into one has already begun to operate.

Later, in order to distinguish between the first year of Hongwu and the seventeenth year of Chongzhen, the Ming Dynasty that had experienced a total of 16 emperors for a total of 277 years was called "Zhu Ming", and the Ming Dynasty from the first year of Zhongxing was called "Huang Ming".

A large number of civil and military officials will be reappointed and dismissed, and the exiled civil and military will also rush to the location of the official office to take up their posts as soon as possible, and Liangguang and Fujian have been completely infiltrated as early as when Huang Sheng served as the governor of Liangguang and Fujian, and now the possibility of encountering resistance from the appointment of civil and military personnel with imperial power is very small.

Yunnan and Guizhou are the key propaganda areas on the Long March of the children of the "God of War", too many children of Yunnan and Guizhou defected to the "Southern Ming", and now the two countries have merged into the new Ming Empire, and Huang Sheng will definitely be able to get the support and support of the people of Yunnan and Guizhou when he becomes the emperor.

Huang Sheng sent officials to the southern provinces of the Ming Dynasty to take root, bringing some soldiers who had served for more than five years to return to their hometowns.

There are many soldiers of the "God of War" who are from the southwest, and with them going to the township and li to serve as the chief and pavilion chief, it will be much easier for the new Ming magistrates to establish a joint defense system for armor protection and land reform.

In less than two or three years, the armor protection system will be effective, and at this time, the magistrate has a stable foothold, and then he will slowly try to get twice the result with half the effort.

The final goal is to break the pattern of Tusi like a small kingdom, the whole world is not the king's land, and all the land of the Ming Dynasty must adopt a legal criterion.

It's just that the magistrate is not the master of Tusi but the lord of the county and the governor appointed by the imperial court, and the local clan forces are still ruling the society.

The Daming Society led by Huang Sheng fundamentally broke the hidden danger that the Southwest Tusi was openly obedient to the imperial court management and secretly self-contained system, and the decrees of the central power of the Ming Dynasty could be conveyed all the way to Baojia.

Historically, the extravagant rebellion that broke out in the Ming Dynasty lasted for as many as 17 years from the first year of the Apocalypse to the tenth year of Chongzhen, affecting Sichuan, Guizhou, Yunnan and Guangxi provinces, with more than one million soldiers and civilians killed and wounded.

During this period, the large-scale war of more than tens of thousands lasted for nine years, consumed too much food and wages, destroyed many state capitals, and caused the Ming Dynasty's national strength to deteriorate sharply, indirectly achieving Li Zicheng, Zhang Xianzhong and others, and really cheapening the Manchu Qing.

Why was Toast able to rebel? Because they have a population, they have a territory, they have their own private armed forces, and they have their own national identity.
