In addition to the three prime ministers, the six ministries and the thirty-six divisions under the jurisdiction of the six ministries, there are also four special yamen and divisions that are directly under the jurisdiction of the Western Wangniang. One is the edict office that Hong Yun'er has long managed, one is the women's hall, one is the public opinion department, and the other is the medical department.

The affairs of the edict are also responsible for the publication of various decrees, documents and official books of the West Temple, and is also responsible for the publication and review of various books of the people, which is an important measure for the West Temple to control public opinion. Because Hong Yuner likes books very much, the edict is temporarily led by Hong Yun'er, and there are talented women such as Fu Shanxiang and Li Xuanji to help.

The women's hall is also in charge of women's affairs such as the women's camp and the women's hall in the West Palace, and it is also managed by Hong Yuner with Fu Shanxiang, Li Xuanji, Yang Dongqing and other women.

The Public Opinion and Propaganda Department is headed by Wang Libin, who is responsible for opening newspapers, controlling public opinion, and all kinds of propaganda.

Yao Yuan is the director of the medical department in Zuihou, which is in charge of various medical treatments, infirmaries, and military doctors in Sufu Province.

In addition, there are two departments that are also directly managed by Xiwang, one is the newly established Intelligence Department, which is headed by Qianjiang and has the same position as the inspection point; The other is Bai Zetang, who is won by Tong Qiang. The Intelligence Department is an intelligence agency on the surface of the West Palace, in addition to being responsible for listening to intelligence and collecting civil information, it is also responsible for secretly supervising hundreds of officials, and their functions are different from those of the Supervision Department of the Criminal Department, they are only responsible for collecting information on hundreds of officials, and do not have the power to judge and take people. And Bai Zetang is like the secret police force of the West Temple, in addition to spying on intelligence, he also does some shady things, such as assassination, rumor-mongering, and so on. Because these two departments are extremely important, they are also directly managed by Xiao Yungui.

Due to the fact that the generals in the West Hall pay too much attention to military affairs, there are very many military attachés, and there are too few civil ministers after all, and many of the squires in the six departments are served by generals who have been transferred from military positions. The six books were all written by scribes.

Zuo Zongtang is the left minister of the West Palace, and he is also the errand of the household book. Originally, Xiao Yungui preferred Li Shanlan to serve as the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, but this old man devoted himself to studying academics and had no intention of becoming a scholar, so he had to give up, Zuihou Li Shanlan promised to help Xidian open a new school or university, and he came to be the principal. Li Kaifang became the secretary of the military department, and he also had the jurisdiction of the soldiers and horses in Suzhou District, which is the meaning of the commander of the Suzhou garrison.

Ji Wenyuan served as the secretary of the Criminal Department. Ji Wenyuan is a fair and selfless person, although he is from a military background, he has no objections to the case in the army, and it is suitable to serve as the secretary of the criminal department. It's just that his thinking on judging criminal cases is still stuck in the old feudal criminal case thinking, and he pays attention to heavy punishments and harsh punishments. Although it is a little different from Xiao Yungui's thinking. But Zuo Zongtang said that it was a troubled time at the moment, and the harshness of Ji Wenyuan was just right, and Xiao Yungui decided to appoint Ji Wenyuan.

Although there are several divisions of the Ministry of Industry that have not yet served as a waiter, it is considered an empty shelf, but the secretary of the Ministry of Industry is appointed by Xu Shou. Xiao Yungui also gave Xu Shou privileges, as long as it was an engineering talent found by Xu Shou, the West Hall could be hired exceptionally. In history, Xu Shou helped the Qing court run the Anqing Ordnance Institute, Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau, etc., which were very successful, and Xu Shou was a rare engineering talent. There is no prejudice against foreign science as a strange and obscene skill like other corrupt Confucians, and it is just right for him to serve as the secretary of the Ministry of Works in the West Temple.

The secretary of the ministry is served by Li Shourong, Wuxi's errand Xiao Yungui plans to let someone else take over, Li Shourong is with Wang Minyun, Zuo Zongtang and others into his own account, experienced the battle of Nanjing and the Eastern Crusade, he is also regarded as an old man in the West Palace, and his talent is not under Wang Minyun, and it is just right to serve as the secretary of the ministry.

The structure in the center of the west hall has been built, and the rest is the structure of the local government. In order to govern one side well, the establishment of local government is very important. After the founding of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, the administrative division of the Qing court of "provinces, prefectures, provinces, and counties" was changed to a three-level system of "provinces, counties, and counties", that is, "provinces" were abolished and "prefectures" were changed to "counties".

After Xiao Yungui and Zuo Zongtang discussed, the local administrative division of Sufu Province was redefined, and Suzhou, the capital of Sufu Province, was changed to have 10 counties and 70 counties. Suzhou County governs Suzhou, and Changzhou Tianxian, Wu County, Yuanhe 3 counties govern a city, leading 10 counties: Changzhou Tianxian (changed from Changzhou County in the Qing Dynasty), Wu County, Yuanhe, Changshu (with Zhaowen County in the same city), Zhaowen, Kunshan (changed from Kunshan County in the Qing Dynasty), Xinyang, Wujiang, Zhenze, Dongshan.

Changzhou County (Qing is Changzhou Prefecture) governs Wujin and Yanghu, and leads 5 counties: Wujin, Yanghu (Changzhou City in the upper two counties), Fuxi (changed from Wuxi in the Qing Dynasty to Fuxi), Jinkui (Wuxi City in the Qing Dynasty), Yixing, Jingxi (Yixing City in the last two counties), Jiangyin County.

Taixuan County (changed to Taicang Zhili Prefecture as Taixuan County) governs Shanghai County. Collar 5 counties: Shanghai, Zhenyang, Jiading, Baoshan (Jinshan is also the same after Baoshan was changed), Chongming.

Songjiang County (Qing Dynasty is Songjiang Prefecture) Zhihua Pavilion, Lou County. 7 counties: Huating, Louxian, Jingpu (changed from Qingqingpu County), Fengxian, Nanhui, Chuansha, Jinshan.

Hangzhou County governs Qiantang and Renhe counties, and leads 9 counties: Haining, Qiantang, Renhe, Fuyang, Yuhang, Xincheng, Lin'an, Yuqian, and Changhua.

Jiaxing County governs Jiaxing and Xiushui counties. 7 counties: Jiaxing, Xiushui (changed from Qingxiushui County), Jiashan, Haiyan, Shimen, Pinghu, Tongxiang.

Huzhou County is governed by An County. 7 counties: Gui'an, Wucheng, Changxing, Deqing, Wukang, Anji, Xiaofeng.

Yanzhou County governs Jiande County, leading 6 counties: Jiande, Shouchang, Tonglu, Fenshui, Chun'an, and Sui'an.

Shaoxing County governs Shanyin and Huiji counties. Collar 8 counties: Shanyin (changed from Qingshanyin County), Huiji, Jushan (changed from Xiaoshan County), Zhuji, Shangyu (changed from Shangyu County in Qing), Shengxian, Yuyao, Xinchang.

Zhiqin County, Ningbo County, 6 counties: Qin County, Yi County, Fenghua, Zhenhai, Xiangshan, Dinghai.

Today's Sufu Province is much larger than the Sufu Province established by Li Xiucheng after the Eastern Expedition in later history, so the newly established Sufu Province counties were divided into 10 counties and 70 counties. Each county has a county guard yamen to govern the locality, each county has a county order, and then the township and village are compiled according to the township official system (see above for details). In addition, police stations are set up in local counties and counties to be responsible for local public security, and township military stations are set up in rural areas to be responsible for local public security.

The appointment of county guards in various places is mostly held by local figures, for example, Suzhou County is appointed as the county guard, but Xu Naizhao, who has lowered the peace. It's just that Xu Naizhao was originally the acting governor of Jiangsu, but now he has become the county guard of Suzhou, as if he has been demoted, from the governor to the mayor. However, Xu Naizhao had no complaints, because his family in Qiantang had been saved, because he had already lowered the peace, if he did not do his best to do things for the Taiping and the Manchu Qing Dynasty came back, the fate of his demotion can be imagined, and it was just because a Manchu Qing official like Xu Naizhao did not surrender. Once it was lowered, it went crazy to overthrow the Manchus, and sometimes behaved more viciously than the old longhair. Appointment and demotion are a category, because these people are familiar with local government affairs and can get started faster. And Xiao Yungui also has the meaning of buying horse bones with a thousand dollars. Among the county guards and county orders of the ten counties and seventy counties, such people account for thirty percent.

The second type of local figure is the local leader. For example, He Wenqing, who served as the county guard of Shaoxing, Huang Chunsheng of Ningbo County, and others. He Wenqing and Huang Chunsheng are both righteous soldiers who helped the Taiping Army to conquer the place, in addition to helping the Taiping Army have great achievements, in fact, their former identities are also a strong party, and Huang Chunsheng's family is a wealthy landlord. This kind of person also accounts for 30% of the county guards and county orders in the ten counties and 70 counties.

The rest is the third situation, and the third type of people is their own old brothers in the Taiping army. For example, Zhu Xineng resigned from his military post and became the county guard of Hangzhou County. However, Wang Minyun's appointment as the county guard of Taixuan County and the director of the Shanghai Military Administration Department is a special case, because Shanghai's status is too special. Shanghai is directly facing very complicated foreign affairs, and there must be someone like Wang Minyun in charge. Although the county guard of Ningbo County is Huang Chunsheng, Xiao Yungui, the director of the Ningbo Military and Political Department, appointed Liu Lichuan who was rescued from Xiamen.

Xiao Yungui was forced to distribute official positions in this way, the Manchu Qing Dynasty's official rule in southern Jiangsu, Ningbo and other places had been completely destroyed, and the Taiping Army wanted to establish its own local power, so it naturally had to start over, and a large number of people in the West Hall were fighting fiercely, but governing the place was not necessarily much better than those corrupt officials of the Manchu Dynasty. In Xiao Yungui's words, he lacked local cadres, think about it, when Taizu fought the world in later generations, he did not occupy such a large territory all at once, Rao is so During the War of Resistance Against Japan, when the anti-Japanese base areas were established, there was still a lack of local cadres in each base area, and many cadres were transferred from the army.

In view of the lack of talents, Xiao Yungui, Zuo Zongtang, Hong Yun'er and others agreed to start the imperial examination in southern Jiangsu as soon as possible, and the officials should carry out short-term training courses for civil officials.

It's not that there are no scholars to defect, but the number of scholars who come to defect is too few compared to the talent needs of the huge central and local governments in the West Temple. And the people who come to defect are uneven in their talents, and there are even those who are crazy about reading Baguwen, and this kind of person doesn't dare to use it. In fact, there are many scholars in southern Jiangsu, Jiangsu and Zhejiang, but they are still wary of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, the nascent court, and they are also afraid that the Manchus will counterattack.

It was Xiao Yungui who knew that this kind of thing had to take time, and the opening of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom's own imperial examination was to tell the scholars of the world that the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom had been established, so that the scholars could continue to have a way to be officials.

Before the opening of the imperial examination, whether it is the central power of the Western Wangfu in Suzhou or the counties and counties, it is necessary to first put the government functions into operation, and restore local reconstruction and law and order, which is the most important matter at present. If an official does not do a good job, the officials can also change the officials after the annual assessment.

In addition to the money, food, and money for their own positions, officials at all levels in the West Hall also have a salary for fictitious titles such as job inspection and command, and even have a reward for the prime minister, that is, those who are rewarded for their favors can also get the prime minister's first-level salary. As soon as Xiao Yungui came up, he offered a high salary to support the incorruptible, and also made it clear that the West Hall should be cleaned up of officials, in the punishment of corrupt officials, the means of the West Hall are very strict, in Xiao Yungui's eyes, there is no difference between being greedy for one or two pieces of silver and being greedy for a thousand taels or ten thousand taels, once you are greedy, the end is to light the sky lantern, which is also the only place where Xiao Yungui did not change the Tianjing decree.

So, at the New Year's meeting of the West Hall held in the main hall of the West Palace, the first thing was to announce the transfers, appointments and dismissals of various official positions. In advance, Xiao Yungui, Zuo Zongtang, Hong Yuner and others passed the anger with the parties in advance, and many people talked alone, because after the appointment was announced, there was not much turmoil. The next day, the policy was agreed, and the policy discussion of the New Deal began to heat up the debate. (To be continued......)
