Chapter 237: The Rise of Governor Zhang's Mansion 4

In countries ruled by interest groups and in countries where power is controlled by interest groups, all the policies and decisions of the ruling class are carried out in a black box. [Full text reading]

The so-called black box decision-making refers to the fact that no matter what system, law, policy and decision are formulated, these things are produced by the coordination within the interest group. Therefore, it is only natural that these institutions, laws, policies and decisions are entirely in the service of the interests of the ruling class.

As for the position of the interests of the common people in these institutions, laws, policies and decisions? Will the interests of the common people be harmed? If you have the opportunity to ask such questions to members of the ruling class and interest groups, and those people happen to be in a good mood and decide to give a truthful answer to your question, they will usually ask more sincerely: "Does this have anything to do with me?" ”

Wang Shuhui himself may not have been very shy in the practice of revolution. But he still had a full revolutionary theory in his head. Therefore, the members of the Fuxing Association who grew up under Wang Shuhui's education know that "we support everything that the enemy opposes, and we oppose everything that the enemy supports." ”

For example, it is also necessary to formulate corresponding systems, laws, policies and decisions. There is an institutional process for the Revival side to do this work. First, the Renaissance Council formulates all systems, laws, policies, and decisions, and all matters involving the masses of the people must be attended by the people's representatives.

(The people's representative system of the Revival Society is one of the steel systems of the Renaissance Society.) All the work related to people's livelihood must be made with the participation of people's representatives. )

(Workers' representatives are involved in factory decision-making and finances.) Farm decision-making and finance are attended by representatives of agricultural workers. Soldiers' representatives are involved in decision-making and finances of the army. All decision-making work related to the interests of the people should involve the participation of the people's representatives. )

(People's representatives are ordinary working people who have reached the age of 18 under the rule of the Renaissance Society, who are engaged in ordinary non-managerial work, and who are not members of the Renaissance Society, and are elected by universal election every year by region.) Due to the limitations of their education level and political ability, the people's deputies are relatively strong in supervising financial issues at this stage, but their ability to formulate policies is still relatively weak. )

Before formulating policies, the Renaissance Council will investigate the needs of the people. When formulating policies, the revival will force (there is no way, many people have resistance, fear and negative emotions about this, and are not willing to actively participate in it at present) people's representatives participate. After the policies are formulated, the Renaissance Council will also explain to the people the purpose and significance of these policies and the actual impact of these policies on everyone.

In the early stage of the implementation of the people's representative system, not only did the masses of the people not understand it, but also the party members and cadres of the Revival Association did not understand it. Fortunately, because of the very serious personality cult and leadership dependence within the Revival Society, Wang Shuhui strongly implemented this policy in the Renaissance Society, and everyone habitually obeyed Wang Shuhui's request.

After all, in the eyes of the party members and cadres of the Renaissance Association, whose political consciousness is not yet sound, Wang Shizun's compulsory implementation of the people's representative system is as incomprehensible to them as Wang Shizun's compulsory implementation of national education and Wang Shizun's compulsory implementation of national military training. But they also knew that they didn't understand what Master Wang meant, but Master Wang's decision would ultimately be conducive to the development and growth of the Revival Society. Therefore, listening to Master Wang's words and trying to understand Master Wang's intentions has become their habit.

Fortunately, whether it is education for all, military training for all, or the people's representative system, they have provided the greatest strength for the development and growth of the Renaissance Association.

The comprehensive education work provides a steady stream of qualified personnel for various positions and fields for the Renaissance Association. The work of all-people military training has greatly improved the quality of the soldiers of the Reconstruction Army. Five years after the implementation of the people's representative system, the feelings of the people under the rule of the entire Revival Society have quickly sublimated from gratitude to support. This has made the promotion and implementation of all the policies and resolutions of the Revival very smooth.

Both Wang Shuhui and Fuxing will be completely unclear and incomprehensible about the operation process of the feudal government. Regarding the matter of taking over Wuchang Mansion, although the Fuxing Society has full control of the Jingzhou Mansion and all the political power in Jingzhou Mansion, the Revival Society's work in Jingzhou Mansion still adheres to the Fuxinghui's own ways and methods.

For example, under normal circumstances, what decision was made by the Jingzhou prefect, Zhang Hong discussed with his staff, at most, he invited the gentry in Jingzhou Mansion to the government for a certain amount of communication. On the contrary, the Fuxing Society, which had imprisoned Zhang Hong, the prefect of Jingzhou and controlled the Great Seal, in his own hands, made an announcement of the whole incident before it began to carry out the operation.

Because the gentry and wealthy households in Jingzhou Prefecture have either been transformed into industrial capitalists under the control of the Fuxing Society system, or have been humanely destroyed by the Fuxing Society by means of land reform, no one has seen the "public announcement" pasted in front of the Jingzhou Mansion with Zhang Hong's big seal.

The gentry who would have cared about these things have disappeared in the Jingzhou area. And the people in Jingzhou know that it is the Fuxing Association that is in charge of affairs here, and it is the "Lord Wang", and the yamen of Jingzhou Mansion has no use in Jingzhou. Therefore, there will be no people who will pay attention to what is written in the notice in front of the government.

In any case, three days after Zhang Hong's notice that he was ready to lead troops to quell the rebellion was hung in front of the palace, Wang Shuhui, the commander of Jingzhou Wei, led 3,000 "Jingzhou Wei soldiers" into Wuchang Mansion under the "leadership" of Zhang Hong, the prefect of Jingzhou.

According to a report later sent by the Jingzhou Prefecture to the Huguang Governor Yamen stationed in Xiangyang, the Yamen of the Governor of the Five Provinces, and the Jingshi Division, it was claimed that because the Wuchang rebels had greatly endangered the lives and property of the people in Jingzhou, the prefect Zhang Hong personally led the armed forces of Jingzhou and the Wuchang rebels to carry out a "bloody battle" in which "rivers of blood flowed."

In the end, Wang Shuhui, the commander of Jingzhou Wei, led the warriors to Wuchang City and entered the city when more than 30 places were created. Because the resistance was too fierce, at the cost of more than 50% of their own battle losses, the Wuchang rebels were completely annihilated by the Jingzhou Wei led by Wang Shuhui under the command of the adults. Under the blessing of His Majesty the Great Apocalypse, Wuchang Mansion has returned to the embrace of the Ming Dynasty.

Suddenly receiving such news, Wei Zhongxian was very happy. First of all, the matter of the Wuchang military rebellion was a matter of concern to the emperor, but because of the sudden change in the southwest, the imperial court had to focus on the southwest and only send Zhu Xieyuan to Huguang. But Zhu Xieyuan's political position is vague after all. Therefore, Wei Zhongxian must have made such a decision reluctantly. Now, in the eyes of outsiders under the protection of Wei Zhongxian, Zhang Hong, the "eunuch party", has pacified the Wuchang rebellion, which is a good thing to directly add points to his political forces.

Secondly, for Wei Zhongxian, Zhijiang Wangfu and Wang Shuhui were the friends he made in times of trouble. Today's Ming Dynasty is not qualified to beg him, but there are not too many people who have been playing Lai Pi and being close to him. However, there are too few people like Zhijiang Wangfu and Wang Shuhui who are fully qualified to ask him for help, but instead give him gifts and money on time and in accordance with the amount every year, but have nothing else to ask for. Wei Zhongxian received so much money and accumulated a lot of guilt. This time, Wang Shuhui followed Zhang Hong to earn credit, so he had a reason and opportunity to repay Zhijiang Wangfu and Wang Shuhui.

The Emperor of the Apocalypse was also quite happy to get Wei Zhongxian's recital. You must know that the Zhijiang Royal Mansion sends a "large amount" of money and various exquisite "organs" to the palace every year and asks for nothing else, and it is simply the only real good relative of the royal family in the world.

When Emperor Tianqi heard that Wang Shuhui, the son-in-law of Zhu Shuzhen, the king of Zhijiang, had made a contribution this time, he directly said to Wei Zhongxian: "The reward given to Wang Yibin by the eldest companion is thicker. There are thousands of clans in the world, and the only one who is truly intimate with me is the Zhijiang Wang's family. Don't be cold about your relatives. ”

Yao Zongwen received Zhang Hong's report and was quite dissatisfied in his heart. However, his dissatisfaction was mainly directed at Wang Shuhui. In his opinion, Wang Shuhui is willing to help Zhang Hong fight to the death to suppress the bandits, and he is really a very crazy guy who doesn't even want to see him.

Of course, Zhang Hong is also a member of the eunuch party, and Yao Zongwen is also jealous of him. But because Zhang Hong helped him solve the Wuchang problem, he, the governor of Huguang, could move back to Wuchang and make it official again, and Yao Zongwen also thought it was good. You must know that Yao Zongwen has quite a headache for the counterinsurgency. He himself has reimbursed thousands of people in the hands of the People's Liberation Army.

Yao Zongwen learned two truths through the fact that the dart division brigade he worked hard to get was easily wiped out by the Protector Army. The first is that he does not have the ability to quell the Wuchang rebellion. The second is that one of his civil and military staff members is counted as one, and they are all a group of waste.

Yao Zongwen can become a senior cadre of the Ming Dynasty, at least he still has self-knowledge. In any way, Yao Zongwen is a person who is reluctant to accept his fate. Regarding not being able to return to Wuchang Mansion to work, Yao Zongwen always felt empty. Although Zhang Hong's approach did not share the credit with him and greatly offended him, it really helped him solve a problem that had been stuck in his throat.

Whether it was the Emperor of the Apocalypse, Wei Zhongxian, or Yao Zongwen, their emotions after receiving the report were not as strong as the military department Shangshu and Zhu Xieyuan, the military governor of the five provinces.

After reading the report from Jingzhou, Zhu Xieyuan only had one sentence in his hometown: "Little lady, Nizi!" ”
