687. The new dynasty has its own new atmosphere (3)

Yu Xiang did not appear in public at Yu Guozhen's enthronement ceremony, at least not by Yu Guozhen's side, he was dressed in the uniform of the Huaxia Army, and looked no different from the ordinary Huaxia Army, if there was, he was standing by Fang Ziyi's side. When Yu Guozhen went to convene a joint meeting of state affairs, their mother and son sat casually on a high-rise building on the bank of the wharf river.

"Mother...... Ah, don't you seem glad that you will be called the queen mother in the future? Yu Xiang's temperament is more than Yu Guozhen, when he was born, Yu Guozhen's foundation has been small, and since then, his growth has caught up with Xinxiang's thriving career, which makes his character also have some high-spirited spirit and a little arrogance.

However, as the eldest son, he has the closest relationship with Fang Ziyi.

"Naturally upset...... Xiang'er, the emperor and empress are not so easy to do...... When you have time, you go to meet Ciliang, and he will tell you that the prince is not easy to be. ”

"I'm not interested in being a prince! I want to be a general, this time my father should be a marshal, right? It's a pity, it's a few years later, I can also get a marshal to be a marshal, I heard that there are Rakshasas after the construction of the north, and I'm going to fight the Rakshasas! ”

The young and vigorous Yu Xiang still showed a little childishness in front of his mother, but Fang Ziyi did not take it lightly because of his childishness - Yu Guozhen's son, how can he talk nonsense, this kid is playing with his heart!

"You mean really?" She frowned slightly: "You want to go north?" ”

Yu Guozhen's preparation to compete with the Rakshasa people for Heishui and Beihai is already well known to the high-level people in Huaxia. In order to mobilize all forces, Yu Guozhen explained the significance of Heishui and Beihai to China very thoroughly: even if today's practical skills cannot fully develop Heishui and Beihai, in the near future, these places will inevitably provide endless resources for China's further industrialization. Moreover, after the recovery of Liaodong in China, the promotion of large-scale plantation agriculture in Liaodong has achieved quite good results, and the fertile black soil, vast plains and large-scale agricultural production in Liaodong complement each other in just three years. It has become the largest supplier of oil crops and the third largest food supplier in China, and the widespread use of pot camel machines has also allowed the primeval forests in Northeast China to provide excellent raw materials for China's shipbuilding, construction and furniture industries.

In short, this battle must be fought, and after it is fought, it will be of great benefit to Huaxia!

But if Yu Xiang wanted to fight the Rakshasas, it was not what Fang Ziyi wanted. Changed to another time. The crown prince will naturally not go out easily, that is the prince of the country. But Fang Ziyi's understanding of her husband and son. Yu Guozhen will really make a move to let Yu Xiang go on the expedition, and he will go out as an ordinary officer, but he is not a commander who sits in a safe place and commands!

"I can't hide it from my mother." Yu Xiang laughed, and then his eyes narrowed slightly: "After this battle, there will not be too many big battles on land, if you want to make meritorious contributions, I am afraid that it will be the last chance." Unless my mother is willing to let me go to the navy, or I can still fight in battle. ”

Fang Ziyi was silent for a while and did not speak.

She knows. The new dynasty has its own new atmosphere, and Yu Guozhen has already announced it in the family meeting. In the future, the descendants of the Yu family, those who have not performed military service, will not be allowed to succeed to the throne, and may not even be given a knighthood. In Yu Guozhen's words, those who do not take responsibility for the country have no right to enjoy the respect that the country receives. This order caused a great shock in the hearts of several women who had sons at home, but Yu Guozhen relied on them for other things, but he insisted on refusing to give in to this matter, and in the end everyone could only obey.

"All the uncles and uncles say that I am the next emperor of course, but I don't want people to think that I can be the emperor just because I have a good old man. Besides, if the emperor of a country does not know ...... soldiers"

"You don't have to convince me that I won't agree to you taking this risk, even if you don't succeed to the throne." Fang Ziyi said slowly: "I have been worried about your father before, and now I have to worry about you again...... I don't understand why you have to put your lives at risk, you have to worry about me! ”

Yu Xiang scratched his head and closed his mouth knowingly, it seems that the matter of persuading Fang Ziyi has to be handed over to the omnipotent Lao Tzu.

At this moment, he heard a commotion in the square below, and someone shouted, "Come out, come out," and he leaned over to look that side, and happened to see several civilian officials under the escort of soldiers pasting new proclamations on the bulletin board.

"Fang is the composition of the imperial court, and it has already made the people below talk about it, now it should be the name of the country, the capital and the banner, where will my father determine the capital of the country?"

Because Yu Xiang's level was not enough, he didn't know about this question, so he was also full of curiosity in his heart.

And Zuo Xing, who was crowded in the square, couldn't wait, and urged Teng Yudao: "How, how, is the capital in Jinling?" ”

The country name is Huaxia, there is no suspense, with the red border and gold background red dragon flag as the national flag, this is not surprising, but only this capital is surprising.

"No, it's not Jinling!" Teng Yu said in surprise.

"That's Yanjing?"

"No, no, the capital is temporarily uncertain, with Shanghai as the national capital, Yanjing as Beijing, Jinling as Nanjing, and Xi'an as Xijing...... Why Shanghai? ”

This question is not only for him, but for almost everyone.

In the venue of the joint meeting, there are still people discussing this issue in a low voice, such as Chongzhen's side, Shen Youlong is extremely puzzled: "Although Shanghai has developed rapidly over the years, it is not suitable for the capital, Yu Jimin only thinks it as the national capital, which proves that Shanghai is not his best choice, Your Majesty, why didn't he choose Jinling or Yanjing?" ”

"I know about this, he once said that the traditions of these two places are too deep-rooted, and if the capital is established here, it is inevitable that the hundred officials will be infected by some accumulated habits in the city."

For Yanjing and Jinling, they are both ancient capitals and the essence of the country, and the long history of the capital has brought them a glorious culture, but also made them carry a heavy historical burden. The corrupt officials of the old court passed on some accumulated customs to the people, and then the people passed it on to the new dynasty. Yu Guozhen wanted to avoid the pollution of these habits as much as possible, so he had to choose another place as the capital.

As for identifying them as Sanjing. This is because they have accumulated so much history and culture that they are suitable for preservation as cultural centers.

Yu Guozhen appointed a total of four deputy assistants, including Jiang An, Wang Chuanyu, Zhang Chi, and Zhang Zheng, among which Zhang Chi was appointed, which was the most surprising. Except for Zhang Chi, these four sub-assistants all have more than 10 years of experience in local government. Yu Guozhen made it very clear that those who have not had more than 10 years of local experience are not allowed to enter the center to fill middle-level and above official positions, so as to avoid those who are fortunate enough to enter the country and "capable people" who are out of touch with the local atmosphere and only know the struggle of the government department.

The appointment of local officials went smoothly, and at this time the territory of China was vast, and there were 54 provinces under its direct jurisdiction, and 54 governors of each province and the general army of the garrison were announced. About a third of the people in this room are already in their respective duties. When Chongzhen saw this scene, his heart suddenly became clear. The remainder of the joint meeting this time, etc. It is about the important members of the Central Committee and the Academy.

Yu Guozhen is not stupid, and now he wants to promote the electoral system in China, and the result is bound to be a farce. In Yu Guozhen's view, centralization is the inevitable choice for governing a large country, even if it is a later Citigroup. Its essence is still centralization, but the way of centralization is different from that of China - otherwise there would be no such thing as the Civil War. It is the possession of a strong centralized power. Therefore, it was able to launch an idyllic westward movement and build hundreds of thousands of kilometers of railways in just over a hundred years. In order to absorb the world's elites and enjoy the benefits of the two world wars.

The most striking example is the White Elephant State, which has a strong X capital, because without a strong centralized power, all policies cannot be implemented, and even democratic politics, which is considered to be a cure-all, cannot change its backward caste system derived from slave society. As a result, a country with great potential in terms of both population and resources has given birth to four dissimilarities.

Therefore, the entire framework of his regime still revolves around centralization.

Unlike the previous votes of 90 or even 10 percent, there were more voices of opposition to the appointment of officials, and the rate of votes in favor was 90 percent. This was expected by Yu Guozhen, because some of them were arranged by him to vote against them – just to prove that those who voted against them would not be held accountable.

After all the personnel appointments are over, the next thing is to make Chongzhen and the others a little nervous, how to deal with the Jurchen tribes, no one will care, even if Yu Guozhen kills them all, no one has an opinion, the key is these officials of the previous dynasty, as well as the Zhu Ming royal family, Yu Guozhen said before that he wanted to properly resettle them, but how to properly resettle the law?

"Officials at all levels in the former Ming Dynasty will all be dismissed, and each person can have three choices according to their own wishes." Yu Guozhen said: "First, after the assessment, he entered the six provinces of Guangxi Province, Hainan Province, Dayuan Province, Guangnan Province, Jiaozhi Province, and Luzon Province as a researcher. ”

This first item is obviously aimed at those former Ming officials who are still ambitious and young, for them, spending four years to integrate into the Chinese system is nothing, as many as 19 ministries in Huaxia can be said to have many more opportunities than the six ministries of the Ming Dynasty, so it is absolutely no problem to spend four years to discuss the future in 20 years.

"Second, some well-respected seniors can serve in various historical museums under the Ministry of Rites, which is the function of the history museum in order to continue learning from the saints......"

Yu Guozhen said the "important" significance of the historical museum, and the officials of the old dynasty looked at each other, everyone knew that this historical museum was about the place where the antique gold and stone were exhibited, and arranging them here to get along with those antiques dug up from the ancient tombs was actually to deprive them of the power to serve as pro-people officials or chief officials, and this position was just to provide for their old age.

"Among them, I will set up the Palace Museum in Yanjing, the Jinling Museum in Jinling, and the Xijing Museum in Xi'an. These three museums will be open to the public, and the people only need to pay a small fee to enter the museum, and the fees collected will be used for the maintenance of the museum. ”

This news is extremely shocking, even if Yu Guozhen does not take Yanjing and Jinling as the capital, but the imperial palaces in these two places were originally preserved for their palaces, and as a result, Yu Guozhen used them as museums! And listening to Yu Guozhen's tone, it seems that he wants to retain a set of rules and etiquette of the Ming Dynasty here, so that the people can come to visit!

Chongzhen smiled bitterly, at first he still wanted to be the director of the Palace Museum, but now it seems that it is more suitable for him to live in Yicheng.

He didn't want to be the object of public visits, like the zoo he had seen in Xinxiang, which had many animals for children from all over the world to see.

"The third is to retire, and the new dynasty will pay a fixed pension according to the previous official position within one year, and cancel it after one year."

"As for the clan of the former dynasty, they were allowed to choose their own careers and be treated the same as officials, but they were not given pensions." Yu Guozhen said again at the end.

Chongzhen shook his head and sighed slightly. (To be continued)
