Chapter 294: Take control of the government and the opposition
[Today's first update, the second shift is a little later, so stay tuned!] ć
Deng Haonan enabled Qian Qianyi and used the Donglin Party to suppress the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, and achieved remarkable results, and soon stabilized the situation.
After taking control of the central court, Deng Haonan began to rectify the military affairs of Gyeonggi.
The Gyeonggi military affairs have basically been deployed by the Governor's Office, but the only issue is the 100,000 forbidden army in the hands of Yang Sichang.
Treating Yang Sichang, Deng Haonan didn't dare to do it before, but now that he has become the regent of the prison country, it is already justified to clean up Yang Sichang.
Yang Sichang was transferred to the military department, but in fact, he was secretly surrendered and robbed of his military power.
In this regard, Yang Sichang was dumb and couldn't say what was going on with Coptis chinensis. Unless he rebels immediately, he can only obediently submit.
Obviously, Deng Haonan did not leave him any excuse to rebel, so Yang Sichang had no excuse and did not have the courage to rebel.
100,000 forbidden troops went to the Tongzhou camp to be reorganized on the spot, and Deng Haonan transferred 50,000 troops to take over the defense of the capital, so as to completely control the central government and coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes.
Which local official didn't understand what Deng Haonan was doing? But the problem is that Deng Haonan is too clever to leave any handle. Because of the exemption from national taxes for three years, it has gained a very high popularity, and everyone has returned to their hearts, and whoever stands up and says bad things about Deng Haonan at this time will definitely be drowned by the spittle of the common people.
Using public opinion to buy people's hearts, this trick Deng Haonan is absolutely amazing, and no one can beat it.
The central court is the largest state machine, and Deng Haonan of the sixth cabinet let go of Qian Qianyi. The so-called employment is not suspicious and suspicious, Deng Haonan controls the army, and is not afraid of Qian Qianyi's tricks.
Due to Deng Haonan's policy of recuperation and recuperation, Qian Qianyi, as the first and auxiliary minister of the cabinet, naturally wanted to find a way to save money for Deng Haonan.
Deng Haonan reorganized the national army and took the road of elite soldiers, and it is expected that the Ming Empire will maintain a standing army of 500,000, and the main force will be Deng Haonan's descendants, and the gap will be supplemented by elite soldiers from all over the country.
The military has been a key factor in the development of the Ming Dynasty, and Deng Haonan reduced the number of active military households by 1.3 million, abolished the system of military households and artisan households, and allowed them to leave their nationality as farmers or merchants. Military households all have land, and Deng Haonan allowed military households to continue farming after being demobilized into farmers. In this way, military households have become peasants, which not only replenishes the civilian labor force. At the same time, the policy of rest and recuperation has enabled the army generals to have a way out of life after being demobilized, so that they will not occupy the mountains and become kings and harm the people.
Qian Qianyi saw Deng Haonan's purpose of disarmament, the so-called elite soldiers and streamlined administration, Deng Haonan's elite soldiers, then he would streamline the administration.
For this reason, Qian Qianyi eliminated the redundancy of central officials and dismissed some officials who were in the position of vegetarian food. As a result of the policy of rest and recuperation, it is foreseeable that there will be a peaceful and prosperous situation among the people. The people will support the government, so Qian Qianyi is not afraid that he will be retaliated against by some officials for redundant personnel.
There is a person in the Ministry of Officials, one person on the left and right waiters, and there are four Qing Officials Division (Wen Xuan, Seal Inspection, Honor, and Merit), each department has one person in the Lang, one person outside the staff, and one person in charge of the officer. The Ministry of Officials has a special weight of power and is the head of the six departments. There is a Shangshu in the household department, one person on the left and one waiter, and there are thirteen Qing officials (Zhejiang, Jiangxi, Huguang, Shaanxi, Guangdong, Shandong, Fujian, Henan, Shanxi, Sichuan, Guangxi, Guizhou, Yunnan), and each department has Langzhong, Wailang, and other officials. There are also some institutions directly under the Ministry of Households, such as the Treasure Banknote Lifting Division, the Banknote Printing Bureau, the Guangying Warehouse, and the Military Storage Warehouse. There is a Shangshu in the Ministry of Rites, one person on the left and one waiter, and there are four Qing officials (rituals, sacrifices, guests and guests, and fine meals), and each department has Langzhong, Wailang, and other officials. In addition, it has jurisdiction over the Casting and Printing Bureau. There is a Shangshu in the military department, one person on the left and one waiter, and there are four Qing officials under it (Wu Xuan, Staff, Che Driver, and Arsenal), and each division has Lang Zhong, Wai Lang, and the chief officer. In addition, it has jurisdiction over institutions such as the Association and the Cultural Center. There is a Shangshu in the Criminal Department, one person on the left and one waiter, and there are thirteen Qing officials under it (the branch is the same household department). Each department has Langzhong, Wailang, Principal and other officials. There is a Shangshu in the Ministry of Industry, one person on the left and one waiter, and there are four Qing officials under the Department (Yingxi, Yuheng, Dushui, Tuntian), and each department has Langzhong, Wailang, and other officials. In addition, it has jurisdiction over the Baoyuan Bureau, the Ordnance Bureau and other institutions.
The old capital Nanjing also has six departments, called the South Six Ministries, and another set of officials, but not all of them, their functions and powers are far inferior to the six ministries in Beijing, and they are generally the place to place the retired ministers of high status.
Deng Haonan allowed the storage of Nanzhili, but he was not worried about those retired and degraded officials, so the military department and garrison of Nanzhili were all controlled by Deng Haonan's descendants, and Deng Haonan would never relax the gun, otherwise there would be problems.
Qian Qianyi reformed the six ministries, and Deng Haonan was not idle, strengthening the functions of the Inspectorate and Dali Temple.
Originally, the Imperial Court had officials such as the left and right imperial historians, the left and right deputy imperial envoys, and the left and right imperial envoys. There are also thirteen supervising imperial histories (110 people), all over the country.
However, under Deng Haonan's rule, there were more Liaodong Prefectures, Korean Prefectures, Taiwan Prefectures, Ryukyu Prefectures, and even Hawaii Prefectures some time ago.
These localities are implementing modern systems such as procuratorates, police departments, and courts, as well as legislation, criminal law, and justice, which need to be integrated with the central government.
But after Deng Haonan discussed with Qian Qianyi, he thought that it could not be done at one touch, and it should be done slowly. After all, the country's bureaucracy is deeply entrenched, and a sudden change could be counterproductive.
Deng Haonan figured out the joints, so he decided to create a transition period and slowly infiltrate the modern system of separation of powers.
Fortunately, at the end of the Ming Dynasty, there was already a rudimentary form of separation of powers, and the people and the people were open to accepting advanced Western cultural ideas, so that they could slowly accept Deng Haonan's reform plan and gradually change.
But it will also take time!
The imperial envoy is "to correct the impeachment of the hundred divisions, to identify the wrongs, to supervise the various ways, and to be the division of the ears and eyes of the Son of Heaven". The duty of the Thirteen Departments to supervise the imperial history is to "investigate and correct the official evils of the hundreds of internal and external departments, or to impeach them in the face of the seal, or to impeach them with seals." In the two capitals to brush the scroll, inspect the Beijing camp, supervise the township, the examination and the martial arts, inspect the Guanglu, inspect the warehouse, inspect the inner library, the imperial city, the five cities, and take turns to board the drum. Outside the patrol press, Qing army, admiral school, tea horse, patrol, patrol, transport, Indian horse, Tuntian. Divisions and divisions supervise military discipline". The patrol is called "patrolling on behalf of the Son of Heaven". Although the official is not high (Zhengqipin), he has a lot of power when he goes out to inspect. There are officials such as political envoys, left and right political envoys, and left and right senators, who are in charge of "internal and external chapters and regulations, and perfunctory and refutable matters".
Set up Dali Temple, there are Qing, left and right Shaoqing, left and right temple Cheng and other officials, in charge of "trial, rehabilitation of prison decree". Together with the Criminal Department and the Inspectorate, it is called the "Three Law Divisions", and serious cases are tried by the "Three Law Divisions".
Regarding the Hanlin Academy, Deng Haonan carried out major reforms.
The name of the Hanlin Academy is still retained, and there are officials such as Bachelor, Scholar, Lecturer, Scholar, Lecturer, Doctor, and Doctor of the Five Classics. However, on the basis of the existing matters such as the control of the edicts, the annals of history, the literature and the Han, the lectures and the reading of the scriptures, and the revision of the history of the country, the training of the six departments, namely, officials, households, rites, soldiers, criminals, and workers, was incorporated into the Hanlin Academy.
With Deng Haonan's idea, the Hanlin Academy will become an academy of sciences from now on, cultivating imperial scientific and technological talents, specializing in advanced scientific knowledge of the West, and catching up with the level of Western science and technology at full speed.
Education is the foundation of the country, and Deng Haonan is one of the institutions that he is most concerned about.
In ancient times, education was controlled by Guozijian. There is a sacrificial wine, a priest, a doctor of the Five Classics, a teaching assistant, a scholar and other officials. There are five halls (rope hall, doctor hall, book hall, classic book hall, palm food hall) and six halls (spontaneous, monastic, sincere, righteous, chongzhi, and Guangye).
Deng Haonan ordered the director of Guozijian to establish the Imperial University, introduced all the disciplines of Leiden University and the University of Groningen in the Netherlands, and hired professors, tutors and teaching assistants from these two universities to teach at the Imperial University, and equipped with the world's most complete teaching equipment and practical rooms. Among them, the real yĆ n room is shared with the Hanlin Academy, and the students are selected from Liaodong University and Guozijian for admission.
Deng Haonan served as the honorary president of the Imperial University, Tang Ruowang, the former Qin Tianjian was the first president of the Imperial University, and Jin Nige, Deng Yuhan, Luo Yagu, Fu Fanji, and Long Huamin (N. Longobardi) served as vice presidents and professors.
Deng Haonan plans to build Imperial University into the world's largest and most educated international super university in 20 years.
For this reason, Deng Haonan did not hesitate to invest 10 million taels of silver in the Imperial University, and increased it every year from the financial budget of the Guozijian in the later stage, and at the same time, the state finance will also give appropriate financial tilt and care.
The Imperial Military Academy was established at the same time, and it was easy to establish the Imperial Military Academy due to the previous foundation of the Yadonghai Army Officer Academy. The Imperial Military Academy also includes all the subjects of the Yadong Naval Army, and all the cadets of the Yadong Military Academy who have not graduated are transferred to the Imperial Military Academy. Deng Haonan still serves as the honorary principal, controls the officer corps, and tightly holds the military power.
Of course, the Yadong Military Academy did not abolish it, but continued to recruit cadets to compete and compare with the Imperial Military Academy, and improve the officers' fighting qualities.
Because Deng Haonan took the road of elite soldiers, many officers in the army were given the opportunity to go to the military academy for further study and transformation, so that the students of the Imperial Military Academy and the Yadong Military Academy continued to flow. The establishment of the Imperial Military Academy has suddenly increased the number of places that were originally very few, and more officers and outstanding soldiers have the opportunity to learn and progress.
The role of military academies is obvious to all, and it is foreseeable that the combat effectiveness of the military will increase in direct proportion to the personnel trained by military academies. This is not only a bargaining chip for Deng Haonan to dominate, but also the only way for soldiers to improve their self-value.
After Deng Haonan took control of the central government, the second step was to control the localities.
On the surface, local forces are easier to control than the central government, but in fact, the principle that the strong dragon does not suppress the head snake remains unchanged. Deng Haonan attacked at the same time, on the one hand, in the name of the imperial court, he directly ordered local officials to carry out the orders of the central government, and on the other hand, he used the power of the Security Bureau to coerce and lure officials from various provinces, so that they did not dare to twist into a rope to oppose Deng Haonan. At the same time, after Deng Haonan reorganized the army of King Qin in various provinces, most of the troops were within the scope of reduction. The old, weak, sick and disabled are given pensions and go home to become peasants, and there are still many young and strong, and many people do not understand the way of life and are unwilling to leave the army.
To this end, Deng Haonan reorganized these young and strong troops into the National Guard and local police forces, which belonged to the same imperial battle sequence as the army. It's just that the army is a foreign war, the National Guard is to suppress violence internally, and the police force is to arrest criminals and maintain local law and order.
These people don't care about the army, the National Guard, or the police, they only care about whether they are civil servants of the state and whether they can get the imperial court.
After receiving these two guarantees, everyone was willing to do it without complaint.
These people came from all over the country, and after Deng Haonan reorganized them, he sent his own people to lead them back to their respective provinces.
In this way, Deng Haonan's strong dragon did not suppress the situation of the head snake changed, and he directly used the locals to deal with and manage the locals, so that the provincial officials could only hang their heads, obediently obey the command of the imperial court, and implement every order issued by Deng Haonan.
Deng Haonan, the local bureaucracy, decided to postpone the reform, and he had to eat one bite at a time, and he couldn't be in a hurry.
At present, the central government is in control, and the local provinces are basically subdued. The top priority now is how to collect the 200,000 troops in Yang He's hands and put down the rebellion in Shaanxi. Also, the strength of the royal family should not be underestimated, King Fu of Luoyang and King Chu of Wuhan are a little restless, and Deng Haonan always feels uncomfortable if he does not get rid of them.

"The car and the horse steal the cannon, this is indeed very appropriate to describe you!"
In the imperial garden of the palace, after listening to Deng Haonan's description, Zhang Yan immediately came to a conclusion.
In this regard, Deng Haonan was speechless, this Qian Qianyi is indeed talented, and one sentence gave an explanation to Deng Haonan's previous strategic deployment, and Deng Haonan couldn't help but admire it.
If you think about it carefully, these words are indeed Deng Haonan's previous strategies and tactics, and they are also appropriately described.
"Looks like he's been studying me for a long time, which worries me a little!"
Zhang Yan disagreed with Deng Haonan's point of view and explained: "He let you win in the last game, plus his words, it is enough to show that he is still knowledgeable about current affairs and knows that he can't fight with Tiandou himself." Although he has not yet shown his loyalty to you, at least he is now concerned about the affairs of the country and the people's livelihood, and he will not do anything against you! ā
Deng Haonan nodded and said: "Yesterday, Wen Tiren jointly impeached Qian Qianyi for embezzling ink and accepting bribes during the Zhejiang Supervision Examination. But I'm still worried that Wen Tiren and they won't give up, and they will find excuses to attack him! ā
"Being an official is like that!" Zhang Yan said: "If you don't fight each other, how can you be an official and promoted!" Now that Qian Qianyi is on the cusp, it will be very good for you! ā
Deng Haonan nodded, noncommittal.
"Did Yang He reply to you over there?"
Deng Haonan shook his head and said, "Yang He can't give up halfway to suppress the bandits, and postpone it to face you!" ā
"Of course he doesn't dare to come back!"
Zhang Yan smiled, looked at Deng Haonan and said, "You have taken away his son's military power, and the next one is obviously going to attack him." Yang He has been in officialdom for a long time, of course he understands it very clearly! ā
Deng Haonan said: "At present, I have exempted the world from paying taxes, and the rebellion in Shaanxi has weakened significantly. Ordinary people don't have to pay taxes, and they can't wait to go home immediately to farm and do business. The appeal of the rebels has been useless, and Yang He can easily recruit the rebels! ā
"You want to say why Yang He didn't do this!"
Deng Haonan nodded, and Zhang Yan said: "I guess it should be Yang He who wants to negotiate with you, and now he still has an army of 200,000, which is his only bargaining chip." Maybe he wants you to give him some favors, otherwise he won't hand over the military power lightly! ā
"It's easy to give him a marquis!"
Deng Haonan said with some worry: "I'm worried that Yang He is too close to King Fu, and I am afraid that something will happen!" ā
Zhang Yan leaned into Deng Haonan's arms and said softly: "King Fu is rich, Yang He is many, then you have to be careful!" ā
Deng Haonan glanced at Zhang Yan lovingly, and said with a smile: "What can a frustrated person and a failed person stick together?" ā
Zhang Yan said suddenly: "Xianggong, you are a little proud!" Yang He is indeed a failure in suppressing bandits, but how do you know that he didn't deliberately fail to suppress bandits? King Fu is not happy, how do you know that he really has no intention of the throne and is willing to be a frustrated prince? ā
Deng Haonan looked at Zhang Yan in amazement, and suddenly smiled from the bottom of his heart, daring to point out his pride undoubtedly sounded the alarm for him.
"If you don't pay attention to a blessed king and a Yang He, if there are more kings of Chu, King Xin, and even other kings, and there is another rebellion of kings together, it will be enough for you!"
Deng Haonan kissed her happily and said, "It's still the queen who is insightful, and it looks like things hit the nail on the head!" You really didn't become this queen in vain! ā
Zhang Yan glanced at Deng Haonan and said coquettishly: "I'd rather be an ignorant little woman!" Back then, I was just like Sister Wanshu, carefree all day long. ā
"Now that you are the queen mother, you are the biggest inside and outside the palace, what are you worried about?"
Zhang Yan nodded, there was really nothing she was worried about. Suddenly, I remembered something, and suddenly said: "Concubine Hui and Concubine Cheng have all died young, and I'm worried about our children!" ā
Seeing her nervous appearance, Deng Haonan smiled: "Don't worry! They were caused by taking the immortal medicine with the emperor, and after taking that kind of immortal medicine, no matter whether they gave birth to a boy or a girl, they would never survive. But none of us ate that, so Guoxing is healthy, you don't have to worry! ā
No matter how Deng Haonan comforted her, Zhang Yan looked very worried.
"In short, it has always been difficult for the children in the palace to grow up, and they are not as easy to feed as the children of the people, you have to change our identities as soon as possible!"
Zhang Yan began to ramble again, and Deng Haonan hurriedly said something else to distract her.

Xi'an, Trilateral Governor's Palace.
With the announcement of Deng Haonan's national tax exemption policy, the rebellious activities of the rebellious people in Shaanxi began to rein, and many small groups of rebels disarmed and returned to the fields one after another, turning into ordinary people who kept to themselves.
These civilians are usually from entire villages, towns, or even entire counties, so the cover-up is very covert and difficult for officials and soldiers to distinguish.
As far as the common people are concerned, as long as they have food to eat and a piece of shame clothing, they can live in peace, how can they rebel?
Since ancient times, the people did not fight with the officials, this principle was the most popular in ancient times, and the common people even treated and respected it as an oracle.
If it weren't for the natural and man-made disasters in Shaanxi, it would not have made such a big fuss. Natural disasters are beyond the means of ordinary people, but man-made disasters are intolerable. It is precisely because the government is still expropriating and extorting money in the disaster year that it leads the common people to rebel.
Now Deng Haonan has promulgated a law to exempt the people of the country from paying taxes for three years, so that the people no longer have to pay taxes and food, and naturally have a way to live, and no longer think about rebellion, after all, it is a matter of killing heads, and no one wants to do it.
However, it was precisely because of Deng Haonan's tax exemption decree that Yang He fell into a crisis, a financial crisis.
