As soon as the conversation between Ran Qiu and Gong Xichi ended, he was summoned by Zhao Wuxian to ask the right question.

I heard that Gongxi Chi wrote a good hand, and he could also write Qi and Wei seals, so Zhao Wuxian asked him and Cheng Jian to serve as clerks and be responsible for records.

Zhao Wuxian wanted to complete the transformation from the Spring and Autumn Period to the Warring States Qin and Han dynasties on his own territory, and change the old feudal system that was not suitable for the era of great contention into a more efficient centralized bureaucracy.

First of all, it is to unify the territory under the same system, which is the first priority of the government.

Ran Qiu, who was waiting beside him and accepted the question and answer at any time, asked curiously: "Is the doctor going to use the government of the Zhao family or the government of the Lu country?" ”

If it was Lu system, he felt that he could also help one or two, and the Zhao system of the Jin Kingdom, Ran Qiu remembered that the master once criticized Zhao Ying's act of casting the punishment tripod.

But Zhao Wuxian's idea is different, the Lu system is still very conservative from the current point of view, and it is much worse than the Jin system that has been turned into a county. But he didn't intend to copy the grassroots local system of the Jin Kingdom, or even the Zhao family's system.

Although Wuxian is currently named Lu Chen, it is actually a self-contained system, and the six secretaries of the Jin State have their own policies, and Dr. Lu also likes to play how to play in his own territory, don't provoke the indignation of the people to expel you.

So he said: "I will choose the good ones and follow them, and change the bad ones, and after mixing, it may be a completely new system." ”

"A new system?"

"Yes!"

Those changes that had been brewing in Zhao Wuxian's heart for a long time, but could not be implemented due to the constraints of the Zhuqing and the clan when he was in the Jin Kingdom, came out of his mouth one after another, and became vivid words under the pen of Gongxi Chi and Cheng Tuan and others.

Every time he spoke, Ran Qiu's upright figure shook slightly.

"From Shilu to Bureaucracy!"

"From respect to respect for the law!"

"From Caiyi to Xiangting Shiwu!"

……

At the end of August, the cool autumn air had arrived, and Zhen Zhongxun, as the head of the Quanyi clan, returned to Zhenyi in a carriage, which was the first time he was allowed to go out since Zhao Wuxian broke the city, and he was still doing "official business". The scenery of dozens of miles back and forth from Zhenyi to Xiaqiu is still the same, and the thunder begins to receive, and the insects are stinging. The river began to dry up, and Zhen Zhongxun looked at this autumn scene, and his heart was also desolate.

When he returned to the Li Lu where the Zhen clan lived, the remnants of the elders and the neighboring patriarchs surrounded him.

"Patriarch. What's going on? ”

"What exactly is the New Deal?"

What they are most concerned about is naturally the specific situation of the so-called "New Deal" of the Zhao family, but as for what this new deal is, there are various theories circulating among various clans, and most of them believe that it is to imitate the system of the Jin State. As a field or a state soldier or something.

Only Zhen Zhongxun, who was invited to Liqiu to listen to Dr. Zhao's proclamation, could learn the truth as soon as possible.

"I can't go into details, but in short, my Zhenyi's system has been broken up and reshaped, some positions have been cancelled, and some new positions have appeared."

Everyone's eyes lit up: "The patriarch can be given a heavy responsibility?" ”

Since the people were powerless to resist in the formalized "public discussion", they could only give in, but they also expected their clan to occupy a powerful position in the new policy.

Zhen Zhongxun showed everyone the newly worn ribbon and small bronze seal on his waist: "The doctor ordered me to be the elder of Zhen Yi." ”

"Elder? What does this ministry do? ”

"...... in charge of the sacrifice"

"The major affairs of the country are in worship and Rong, and this duty must of course be undertaken by people of high moral integrity. Patriarch Zhen is competent enough, reluctantly. At that time, Zhao Wuxian said this to Zhen Zhongxun.

At first glance, it sounds very reasonable, but Zhen Zhongxun feels that this position is likely to be a fictitious position, which is used to settle and comfort the clans, and everything has to be done only by Zhao Wuxian and the head of the Yi chief.

Seeing the happy faces of his family, he sighed slightly, if Zhao Wuxian completely excluded the clans from the New Deal, it would inevitably cause a huge backlash and dissatisfaction. But how clever this man is. First, he was given a lot of seemingly good positions, but the key subordinates appointed cronies. In this way, the clans are content with the status quo and want to go further. To be in a position of great office, you must be wholeheartedly loyal to him.

Zhen Zhongxun can only tremble in this position of "Elder Zhen Yi" to meet the various requests of the Zhao family's doctors, and at the same time try to protect the interests of the clan.

Someone came over and asked, "Does Doctor Zhao mean that as long as the Zhao family is in Zhen Yi for a day, my Zhen family can inherit the position of elder?" ”

In the current Wei and Lu countries, the retainers are often passed down from generation to generation. So after a few generations, the retainers became the spokesmen of local rights, like the doctors of the city. This is the case in the Lu State, the Fei Zai of the Ji family has been passed down by the father and son of the Nan family for a long time, and the retainers of Sanhuan have sat in the territory and are above the lord, which finally caused a sad situation of the dictatorship of the courtiers.

Zhen Zhongxun sneered: "Doctor Zhao is such a shrewd person, how can he be so generous? I am also temporarily responsible for the position of the elder of this town, and I have to be supervised by the doctor's cronies every year to take the examination, and if the government is not in line with the doctor's wishes, it can be revoked at any time! And there is no food field, but corn is distributed as a stipend, 200 stone a year! ”

……

"If the virtue and righteousness are not clear to the court, they cannot be added to the throne; Those whose skills are not seen in the country shall not be conferred on them; He who presides over government affairs and cannot win the trust of the people is not allowed to be a governor. Zhen Yi and Liqiu's duties are completely meritocracy, even if they are temporarily appointed, they can be changed and replaced at any time, this is the principle of this doctor's employment! ”

This is also the "from Shilu to bureaucracy" proposed by Zhao Wuxian when he announced the government!

He scattered and rebuilt the different official positions of Zhenyi and Xiaqiu, and the chief official of Yiyi was named Yi Zai, who managed government affairs and people's livelihood, paid taxes and paid 300 stones a year.

In addition, there are three auxiliary officials, Yi Sima Guan recruited the garrison, with a rank of 250 stones; The elders of Yi are in charge of sacrifices and village shooting gatherings, and the Yi judges are in charge of the prison and robbery, with a rank of 200 stones.

The list of the officials of the two towns was gradually made public, and Zhao Wuxian called it "publicity", among which the candidate for Zhen Yi was expected by everyone, and that was Zhang Mengtan.

Zhang Mengtan can be said to be the number two person in Zhao Wuxian's forces, and he is also the only person who can take charge of the military and government of Liangyi in Wuxian's absence.

He is a friend of Wuxian, who came thousands of miles after leaving the Song Dynasty without shirts, and offered a plan to seek Pubei and enter Lu, and was praised by Zhao Wuxian as the first meritorious minister. He is modest and bowing, and is very outstanding in morality, merit, and winning the trust of the people for the government.

And the chief official of Xiaqiu was awarded the Ji Qiao who had recently arrived from the Jin Kingdom.

Ji Qiao was originally only interested in mathematics. The rest of the lazy people who can push and push on official affairs, when Zhao Wuxian was still in China, he did not actually take up his post, but concentrated on studying mathematics. Cultivating the talent to succeed the next generation.

But after being expelled without a shirt, Ji Qiao advanced bravely and took the initiative to take the position of the head of the township, and together with Yang Tongue Rong, he maintained this township that was panicked because of the departure of the shirtless. In the past year, the township has been prosperous. The carts of money and porcelain were sent to Shangqiu in Songcheng, helping Zhao Wuxian maintain his expenses and opening up the situation in Shangqiu.

After falling into the hands of Wuxian in the land of Pubei, Ji Qiao stepped down with Yang Yurong, handed over Chengxiang to Zhao Ying's retainers, and ran to Xiaqiu with his disciples and some potters to work for Wuxian.

The reputation of this nearly forty-year-old official has gradually risen within the Jin Kingdom, and even spread abroad, and many people know that Cheng Xiangzai is a master of mathematics who knows the numbers of Zhou Ji, and is studying the art of "passing through heaven and latitude".

Ji Qiao is famous, meritorious, and laborious. More than a dozen young mathematics disciples in his hands also solved Zhao Wuxian's lack of talent, so it is understandable to appoint him as the head of Xiaqiu Yi, since the governance of Chengxiang is in good order, the further Qianhu Yi should also be competent.

Ji Qiao, who has lost a lot of weight compared to last year's winter solstice, has his own worries: "The ministers are afraid that they are busy with government affairs and have no time to study mathematics and teach their disciples......

But Zhao Wuxian reassured him, if there was no accident, he himself would be stationed in Xiaqiu, using this former fortress as an administrative center. We will also participate in weekday government affairs. This appointment is to reward the hard work of Ji Qiao, and secondly, it is also to pave the way for the growth of the "several" that is gradually taking shape.

Ji Qiao couldn't shirk it, so he had to agree.

Next, it's Yi Sima. Whether it is in terms of power or power, Sima is the only one who is the position of the minister, and there are many people under Zhao Wuxian who can do it.

But Ran Qiu was not good when he first came and was suddenly promoted to such an important position, Mu Xia, Yu Xi, and Wu Jing lacked prestige, and these four people were more suitable to stay in the military pawns as military officials. Therefore, Sima Yangyurong, the former Chengxiang who originally had a high status, and the Zhao family's retainer Huhui became the most suitable candidates.

Yang Tongue Rong was a little excited after being appointed by Zhen Yi Sima. This is only two years with Zhao Wuxian, during which time the monarch and the minister were separated. Who would have thought that he was promoted from the two Simas of the lower palace to the position of Sima of Qianhuyi, and he jumped at least two levels during the period, which can be said to be a flying speed. He never thought that he would have such a day, but he felt that the dream of being a doctor and reviving the sheep tongue clan gradually had hope, and he was suddenly full of energy.

The Tiger Club still likes to lean against the city wall and sing, in addition to Sima Qiqiuyi, he is also responsible for teaching the soldiers to throw spears and training the 100 Zhao courtiers' children "Shu Zi Pawn", and now this group of people has become accustomed to the training and combat methods of the warriors, and can be used.

Although the elders of Yi were in charge of sacrifices, they still took into account divine power in ancient times, and their power was extremely powerful, but after entering the Spring and Autumn Period, they have gradually been marginalized. As long as Zhao Wuxian takes care of it, this position is just an empty title. In order to appease the locals, Elder Zhen gave it to Zhen Zhongxun, and Elder Liqiu also gave it to a local septuagenarian, but he was only a puppet, and the main position was still held by Gong Xichi, a Confucian disciple who was skilled in etiquette.

Finally, there is the position of judge in charge of the law and prisons......

Since the ancient Gaotao criminal law, the law is hidden in the treasury, not easy to show people, so that the people can not figure out whether it is illegal or not, causing an unknown fear, so that the noble doctor can kill the people and take the people's livelihood.

However, the trend of the Spring and Autumn Period is that written law will gradually become the mainstream, and the Zheng and Jin countries have taken the lead, especially the Zhao and Zheng states of the Jin Kingdom, which are at the forefront of the times.

Zhao Wuxian ruled the two towns of Pubei, and also wanted to turn this place into a legal regime under him, where everyone could respect the law, which was "from respect to respect for the law".

However, when it came to the end, he realized that he had an extreme lack of legal talents under his command, and in the end, he could only let Cheng Xuan, who was familiar with "Zhao Xuanzi's Law", serve as the temporary judge of Liqiu, but Zhen Yi's judge could only be concurrently served by Zhang Mengtan.

In addition, the construction of the law is also very lagging behind, the military law is temporarily sufficient, but the civil law can only be erected by the Zhao family of the Jin State. If you want to further establish a law that is in line with the "national conditions" of Pubei, you also need an outline leader and a steady stream of grassroots talents.

When he was poor and thinking of the wise man, Zhao Wuxian couldn't help but think of Deng Fei, who taught criminal law in Xinjiang Pan Palace, and Deng Fei's brother of the same clan who he heard of the famous name many times during his time in the Song Kingdom, Mr. Deng Xi, a famous "litigation lawyer" in Zheng Guo.
