Chapter 41 The Third Task Dong Zhuo of the Three Kingdoms 9
Lu Renbing led the troops outside, and in April, the palace and city were released, and the terror clouds in Luoyang began to dissipate. Gradually, the streets came back to life.
Although Dong Zhuo became the prime minister and the prince, it was because he was leading the troops outside. The bigwigs in the court didn't have to face that unreasonable martial artist, and their hearts were a lot easier. Due to the brutal Dong Zhuo's looting, now that the imperial court is full, there is no need to worry that the ministers will not be able to pay their salaries, and there is no need to worry that the displaced people will not be able to give relief. Although the financial application process is much stricter. But the Han Dynasty still survived the turmoil caused by the killing of the great general and the palace coup.
Yuan Kui and others wrote a book, suggesting that Yuan Chuping be changed, Lu Renbing had no opinion, and Liu Bian naturally had no opinion. So the second year of Zhaoning has become the first year of Chuping, these are all trivial things.
In August of the first year of Chuping, Lu Renbing was leading people to pacify Jizhou. The party members and celebrities who were bustling in the DPRK and China waiting for the official finally had their whereabouts.
Mr. Lu agreed to the appointments, but he had to agree to Mr. Luk's reform proposal. Lu Renbing's reform plan, in fact, is nothing, it is a separation of powers.
It was agreed to formally set up a state-level administrative body, but it could not be a state pastor or a military and political authority, nor could the county be too guarded, in short, it was a legal principle that these people could not be separated.
Originally, the state pastoral system was the last resort of Emperor Ling in response to the Yellow Turban chaos. Emperor Ling's mind was not confused, and he only awarded three state pastors. Now two have been recovered by Dong Zhuo. Huang Wan is a servant and a pastor of Yuzhou, and Liu Yu is a captain and pastor of Youzhou.
Lu Renbing successively transferred them back to Luoyang to take up posts. On the grounds that the central affairs were busy, they were deprived of the title of state pastor.
Now it has officially deprived the state of the secession authority.
At the beginning of the Han Dynasty, the system of Huang Lao was emphasized, so the government agencies were relatively simple and the number of officials was small, but with the development of the times, the population increased and the affairs increased sharply. Counties, including the various agencies of the central government, had to be recruited by the governors themselves to cope with government affairs. These chiefs recruited men who were loyal only to the Lord.
The Han Dynasty became a typical dualist monarchy. The officials of the county were not loyal to the emperor, and finally guarded the state and pastor. This is also the reason for the formation of secession in the late Han Dynasty.
The scarcity of official positions is also the reason why it is difficult for students in the Eastern Han Dynasty to find employment, and the difficulty in finding employment for students has also become one of the root causes of the party's disaster.
Lu Renbing's reform plan is the six-ministry cabinet system of the Ming and Qing dynasties, and the Supervision Yuan, Dali Temple and other institutions should be copied in full. But this is all a pit of the civilian government, and in addition to this, there is an independent Privy Council, which is in charge of the military of the whole country, led by Lu Renbing, and directly governs the army of the whole country.
The local garrison was under the jurisdiction of the local governor, but the appointment of the lieutenant was in the Privy Council.
The emperor is in charge of the appointment of ministers above the third grade, and the ministries are divided into positive and negative, left and right, to prevent centralization,
The state is the province of the Ming and Qing dynasties, and the county is equivalent to the state capital of the Ming and Qing dynasties, but the scale is larger. However, now that the world is in turmoil, it is not easy to reform, so it is good to sort out the state first. Split several oversized states, such as Jiaozhou into Guangzhou and Jiaozhou, Liangzhou into Yongzhou and Liangzhou, Youzhou into Youzhou and Liaozhou.
The structure of each state is that the state pastor is responsible for government affairs, the state lieutenant is responsible for military defense, the criminal case is responsible for the preparation of criminal cases, and the assassin is responsible for supervision.
Although Lu Renbing's plan has changed a lot, it has not touched the giants much, and many pits have been added, so it has been passed after discussion and improvement by all the bigwigs.
The bigwigs also followed the habit of the Han Dynasty and inserted the existing official names into it.
The reform in the first year of the first year of the early peace was vigorously launched. Countless appointed party members, students, and officials went to various parts of the country.
The princes who raised their banners against Dong Zhuo in history also got high positions.
But this time, Lu Renbing was not worried that they would have the ability to rebel again. One is that they have no strength, and the other is that they have no excuses.
Lu Renping is in charge of the Privy Council alone, and is in charge of the country's military. Six ministries and most of the cabinet seats were ceded. Now these government agencies are full of factions, and it is too late for infighting, who has the energy to organize a prime minister who is fighting outside.
This system, which combines the wisdom of China's 2,000-year-old centralization, was enough for these elites in the late Han Dynasty to study carefully for several years.
This system should also have a supporting talent selection mechanism, and it is inevitable to set up education and open the imperial examination. Don't say that the imperial examination in the Han Dynasty was not easy. Now that private schools are prevalent, and official schools are also all over the country, in addition to relying on relationships, inspections are also subject to examinations.
Now under the new system, there is a lack of a large number of officials, and the introduction of official education has become the top priority of the imperial court.
The imperial examination and the establishment of education Lu Renbing were also thrown to the Confucian giants of the imperial court. Structural reform, imperial examinations, and education are all issues that involve their fundamental interests.
When the authority of the Han court was not lost, and everyone had not yet turned their backs on the Han Dynasty's self-reliance, it still succeeded in diverting the attention of most people. Whether it is a meritorious prince, a clan, a great Confucian, a family, or a local tycoon, they must all participate. It is impossible to make it without a three-to-five-year struggle. These things are the affairs of the court bosses. After Lu Renbing drew out the general framework and structure, he handed it over to them to divide it up in detail.
The collapse of a dynasty, in addition to natural and man-made disasters, the most important thing is that the bread is not enough to divide up, and the vested interests guard their own piece of bread and do not let the latecomers share it, and the latecomers have to flip the table.
What Lu Renbing is doing now is to spread the cake bigger, so that more people can come in and share the cake, and delay the outbreak of conflicts.
Although it cannot fundamentally solve the problem, it can temporarily stabilize the stormy Eastern Han Dynasty. That kind of delusion, the idea of killing all the powerful clans in the world and completely changing the world is basically impossible.
The scholars, the mighty and powerful, hold the land, population, and knowledge of this era, and no one can be the enemy of the world. Because of the mission, Lu Renbing wanted to first ensure the authority of the central court of the Han Dynasty, sweep the world, and finally save the Han Dynasty. Instead of flipping the plate.
Did the Han Dynasty really reach the limit of the population that the productive forces could bear in the feudal era? Not at all, there are still countless wastelands in the entire Han Dynasty that have not been reclaimed, and the entire south has not been developed, and it has not reached the limit of feudal society at all. According to the total population of 450 million people at the end of the Qing Dynasty, the Han Dynasty was still far behind.
So what we need now is to stabilize the court, develop the south, and draw a bigger pie. It is impossible to develop the South with the poor who have nothing alone. There must be wealthy families to open up, they have money, some people have technology, and they have the ambition and ability to pioneer.
There's no need to kill them all.
