Chapter 60 The political road is smooth

……

The cabinet is set up in the Wenyuan Pavilion in the forecourt of the Forbidden City. However, within two days, he was ordered by Zhao Zhe to move to the Xinuan Pavilion of the Qianqing Palace, and all kinds of seals that were originally dispersed to the cabinet, as well as the celebrant supervisor, were all collected by Zhao Zhe in his hands and placed in the Dongnuan Pavilion. In the past, the emperor, in order to enjoy the grand event, set up an inner court with eunuchs as the main body, which was used to contain the outer court headed by the cabinet. However, after a few months, Zhao Zhe, who is becoming more and more accustomed to the identity of the emperor, has already understood. It doesn't matter if you delegate power, contain it, or let the two parties fight each other. These things, only after you are fully in control of the situation, can you be a remote control emperor comfortably. Otherwise, according to the current situation, he, the free emperor, maybe three or four years, maybe ten years, will one day come to an end.

In the new layout of the Xinuan Pavilion, Zhao Zhe has a huge main desk. The dozens of large and small officials in the cabinet are divided according to their positions or responsibilities, and each occupies a small area in the warm cabinet. Although the warm pavilion is not small, it is a little crowded to accommodate these dozens of people to work.

But Zhao Zhe came through time, although he didn't do every job for a long time, he also worked in the office as a small white-collar worker for a period of time. This level of congestion is nothing at all in a metropolis where every inch of land is at a premium. What's more, getting closer together can not only deepen the rapport, but also better communicate with each other, improve work efficiency and quality.

In the cabinet, including Yan Yu, a scholar of Wenyuan Pavilion, there are a total of six scholars. There are also 36 cabinet members, most of whom are from the Hanlin Academy. There are six university scholars, each in charge of one administrative department. In fact, Zhao Zhe is not too satisfied with this personnel structure. There is a specialization in the art industry, and it is better for each government affairs to be directly promoted by officials from each department.

In the Great Zhao Empire, there is a special division called the General Administration Division. It is in charge of the transmission of all kinds of information, intelligence, news and other government letters. The Department of Communications and Administration has set up branches all over the country to collect and summarize various government correspondence all the way to the Forbidden City. After being processed by the Forbidden City, it was conveyed to every corner of the Great Zhao Empire.

In fact, the real role of the cabinet at the beginning of its establishment was that of an emperor's staff group, the general staff. All kinds of large and small government affairs will be sorted out by the celebrant to assist the emperor, and then sent to the cabinet for analysis, discussion, and then write out the handling opinions and paste them on the official documents. It is then presented to the emperor, who can use red letters to approve whether he agrees to carry it out. After approval, it will be handed over to the corresponding six departments for proofreading, and a formal official letter will be formed, which will be distributed to all departments for implementation. Then the six departments also have the right to supervise, supervise the will issued by the emperor, whether the ministries are in place, and form a receipt for the results, and return them to the cabinet.

This is basically the government affairs processing process channel of the Great Zhao Empire. It's not too complicated, and it seems to be quite efficient. However, once the emperor was too lazy to deal with the government affairs, and the two parties were competing, this political road was really restricted everywhere, and the passes were everywhere.

Zhao Zhe's first thing to do is not to make money, nor to send troops, but to ensure that this political road is smooth, fast and safe. In this way, Zhao Zhe's will can be completely led to every corner of the country. Fortunately, now that Liu Chao has fallen, Yan Yu has been hollowed out of power by Zhao Zhe and has become a senior staff. This makes it possible for Zhao Zhe to carry out thorough reform as long as he has the heart.

During the relocation of the cabinet, Zhao Zhe asked the idle people to draft dozens of official letters of six different types, and handed them over to the six subjects for proofreading and conveying them one by one. After two more days, twenty letters came back one after another. Okay, he doesn't want the more than 20 letters behind Zhao Zhe. directly drafted the holy decree, and directly sent Jinyiwei to investigate and solve it, to see which joint of that political road had a problem?

It's like Zhao Zhe playing with the computer at that time, and he "ping" it when he saw if the network was working. If it doesn't work, or the delay is terrible, you can always find out which link is stuck. Because Zhao Zhe's official letter is to let the person who received the official letter reply to an official letter as soon as possible. And the place where he sent was not far away, even the slowest place, as long as it was completely smooth, it would take a day and a half at most to go back and forth. If you can't come back at the specified time, naturally there is either a problem on the road, or there is a problem with the person who received the official letter. In either case, it is a crime of dereliction of duty. In particular, it is also a political smooth lifeline for the centralized political axe headed by Zhao Zhe.

Of course, this small test is only for the capital. After this small cleanup, and Zhao Zhe tested it twice. Officials everywhere in the capital are in danger, and they either dare not delay their official documents, or they dare not leave their posts indiscriminately. It was only two or three small Beijing-wide political road tests, and as many as 73 relevant officials of all sizes were arrested one after another. These people will be interrogated by the Metropolitan Procuratorate and convicted of crimes.

However, the busiest is not the Metropolitan Procuratorate. It was the Ministry of Officials, and in just a few days, a large number of officials were dismissed, and the emperor had to keep the political road smooth. Officials who have been dismissed always need someone to replenish them, right? This is good, no matter how they make up for it, they are not as fast as the emperor's withdrawal.

The reason why Zhao Zhe only did a few tests in the capital did not expand the scope of testing to the whole country. First, there is no time for him to test it again, and it is already a very good thing that some official letters from distant places can come back within two months. Where is there so much spare time? What's more, the transmission of information between the Secretary of Communications and other officials is often faster than that of the official authorities. Many neighboring areas have begun to take the smoothness of the emperor's orders seriously, and they have become cautious one by one. Otherwise, let alone the official position, if you don't get it right, you won't even be able to save your surname. It is believed that it will not be long before there will be a great improvement in the country's political road. Even if it doesn't achieve the best results, it will be much stronger than the original.

With a smooth political road, Zhao Zhe began to really deal with national affairs. Thinking of this, Zhao Zhe's heart began to boil a little. However, what made him have to calm down was that what was now in front of him was a mess country. Not only the internal people rioted, but also the foreign barbarians invaded. In fact, even the popularity of the people in his country, the reputation of the Great Zhao State is also poor to a certain extent. If you want to pick up this mess of the country little by little, it will become strong and peaceful. This road is not too difficult.
