Chapter 61: The Mystery of the Six Parts

Ministry of Industry.

If there is no mistake in my understanding, this Ministry of Industry should be one of the three provinces and six departments set up in the court since ancient times, but this Guanshan is not the court, how can there be one of these three provinces and six departments?

Chunting smiled.

He looked into my questioning eyes, stood up and walked out unhurriedly.

"Let's go and inform Xingkong first, and I'll talk to you about this Ministry of Engineering after I'm done."

Although I had doubts in my heart, I could also distinguish the priorities, since I was just informing Xingkong to start repairing the Water and Land Hall tomorrow, naturally I didn't need everyone to go together, so Chunting called me and Ling Xuan, and the three of them went straight to the abbot's room in Xingkong.

We didn't go far before we arrived at the empty place, where Ling Xuan stretched out his hand and knocked lightly on the door, and at the same time whispered to the empty space inside the house.

"Master, is it convenient for you to speak now?"

As soon as Ling Xuan finished asking, the door was pushed open from the inside out, Xingkong still had the same kind look, looking at Chun Ting and asking.

"Amitabha, these days the donor has been meditating with the monks in the temple every day, and Ling Xuan's donor has also not seen him for a few days, and today he suddenly came to find the poor monk, could it be that the donor is ready?"

Ling Xuan took a step forward, with a smile on his face, and told Xingkong where he had been in the past few days.

"That's right, the master is really smart, this repair is naturally difficult for me to do alone, these days I went to contact the construction people, now the personnel are ready, if the master has no opinion, tomorrow you can start to repair your temple."

When Xingkong heard this, a smile was added to his already kind face, and he was very satisfied with his words.

"The poor monk will naturally not have an opinion, the donor's merit is immeasurable, after the repair, the poor monk will be engraved with the name of the donor to hang the immortal card next to the main hall, and lead the monks of the temple to pray sincerely for the donor every day, may the donor live a long life and a worry-free life!"

I've heard that there is a monument of merit at the entrance of some temples, which engraves the names of those who have contributed to the temple and those who have made donations to the temple, which is actually a great merit.

And listening to what Xingkong said, we can hang the immortal card in the main hall, and at the same time enjoy the monks chanting the Buddha every day for us, which is already the highest courtesy that the Huanghua Temple can come up with, and it is really deserved.

Before we could refuse, Xingkong went to the Daxiong Treasure Hall on his own, apparently preparing to discuss this immortal card with the monks in the temple......

The three of us looked at each other, watching the drifting away and not knowing what to do.

"It's all fate, although our purpose is to hide the statue, but now we are indeed preparing to rebuild the temple for this Huanghua Temple and reshape the golden body, and we will receive it with some good intentions."

Chun Ting was the first to react, and he couldn't help but laugh, it seemed that he had not had this kind of experience either.

"Actually, it's okay, don't care about this longevity card for now, as long as this Huanghua Temple has no doubts about our actions, and thinks that we are just here to be willing to repair, then it will be much easier for us to act."

Ling Xuan also figured out the details and said with a smile.

"Okay, since that's the case, don't study it, anyway, tomorrow Chen Gong is going to take his subordinates to start work, shouldn't you explain to me about this Ministry of Works?"

Seeing that all these preparations were properly prepared and only tomorrow was about to start, I finally couldn't help but be curious, and began to ask these two people about the Ministry of Industry that Chen Gong said.

Chun Ting heard my question, and smiled at Ling Xuan, his words mysterious.

"You, I can't help it, let's go, go back and talk together, lest anyone be curious and I have to say it again."

Since Chunting said so, I had to endure the curiosity in my heart, and the three of them returned to his room together.

When I arrived at Chunting's room, I found that everyone was there, and no one left first, so Chunting sat down and looked at me and asked slowly, with that thoughtful look in my eyes.

"How much do you know about the Ministry of Works?"

When I saw this, I knew that he didn't intend to tell me directly, so I began to think about what this so-called Ministry of Industry was.

The Ministry of Industry, as the institution that manages engineering affairs, is in charge of the system of civil construction, the use of utensils, the method of dredging of canals and weirs, and the code of providing 100 million yuan for mausoleums, all civil engineering, water conservancy projects, machine manufacturing projects, mining and metallurgy, textiles and other government-run industries, and is in charge of a part of the financial currency and unified weights and measures.

Chunting heard my answer with a smile on his face.

"You see, you have said that the Ministry of Engineering is in charge of civil construction, since Chen Gong is proficient in the way of civil engineering, what is wrong with his subordinates being called the Ministry of Engineering?"

I looked at him angrily, knowing that he was deliberately teasing me, since this ministry is from the three provinces and six departments, so I didn't wait for him to continue to speak, so I talked about the past and present life of the three provinces and six departments.

The so-called three provinces and six ministries are a set of well-organized central bureaucratic system in the ancient court, which was first founded in the Sui Dynasty and perfected in the Tang Dynasty, and then until the end of the Qing Dynasty, the six-part system has basically remained unchanged.

Among them, three provinces refer to Zhongshu Province, Menxia Province, and Shangshu Province, and six departments refer to the Ministry of Officials, Household Department, Ministry of Rites, Ministry of War, Ministry of Crime, and Ministry of Industry under Shangshu Province, each of which has jurisdiction over four divisions, a total of 24 divisions.

In the course of the development of successive dynasties, its organizational forms and powers were different, and it was not until the Sui Dynasty that it was neatly organized into three provinces and six ministries, which were mainly responsible for the formulation, review and implementation of government decrees and policies, and at the same time played a role in weakening the power of the prime minister and strengthening the imperial power.

Hearing this, Chunting shook his head with a smile.

"Wrong."

I was surprised for a while, because I have been interested in the official history since I was a child, these three provinces and six departments have naturally been understood for a long time, and what is the fault in Chunting's mouth?

"What's wrong?"

"Chen Gong's Ministry of Industry refers to six ministries, not six ministries in three provinces."

Chunting finally stopped selling Guanzi and looked at me to explain seriously.

"The six departments of the three provinces originated from the Sui and Tang dynasties, and the six departments can be traced back to the Shang and Zhou dynasties."

"So what's the difference?"

Chunting's plausible answer made me head two bigger, and I couldn't understand the difference between the two.

"Six ministries, is the general name of the six ministries in the central administrative organs, in the Shang and Zhou dynasties have already had a scale, its duties in the Qin and Han dynasties were originally divided by the Jiuqing, the Sui and Tang dynasties were formally determined to be the six departments of Shangshu Province, with officials, households, rites, soldiers, criminals, workers six departments than attached to the six officials in the "Zhou Li", Qin and Han Jiuqing's positions are mostly merged."

"Although Guan Shan has been inherited for thousands of years, according to what you said before, Guan Shan has never intended to ascend the throne as emperor."

If I'm not mistaken, Guan Shan should never have had the idea of becoming a king on his own.

"Guan Shan does not have the intention of ascending the throne as the emperor, but there are several periods of the leader, who happens to be the lord of the world, you must not forget Emperor Yu and Zulong, they are the real masters of the world."

Chunting seemed to open his mouth casually, but what he said made me pause.

I have always ignored this point, according to what Chun Ting and Ling Xuan said, Guan Shan did not intend to be the emperor of the world, never interfered too much in the world, only let the world return to peace in times of crisis, and did only to protect the people of the world from the impact of war.

But after he finished speaking, I suddenly remembered that the first leader of this Guanshan was Dayu, who was known as the co-lord of the world, could it be ......

"Could it be that these six parts were created by Dayu?"

"That's right, this six-part system is exactly what Emperor Yu did."

Chunting nodded, and saw that I had sorted out the reason and admitted it calmly.

"Each force has its own mode of existence, and the Netherworld of Yihe is called the legendary Yin Cao Difu, and what has been followed in Guanshan for thousands of years is from the six-part system created by Emperor Yu."
