"Anything else?" Wang Yuxun asked.

"Huh? Almost. Wang Jibao thought about it, and suddenly thought that she almost forgot about her business. So he hurriedly said: "Actually, what I have been thinking about the most in the past two days is the imperative reform of the government of you, third brother." ”

Wang Yuxun nodded and said, "Yes." It's like the one I asked when I took the entrance exam. On the way here, my father and I discussed the most about the reform of government officials. ”

"So what do you and Daddy think? Don't just point at me. I certainly don't have as much vision as you do. Wang Jibao knows that he belongs to the players on paper. Many of her ideas come from modern information, as well as television.

But in her historical cognition, as long as there is any change in the law, it seems that the initiator will not end well. However, when it comes to historical progress, it seems to have the most direct relationship with these changes.

In Wang Jibao's impression, the first change should be the Shang Yang change, and later there were Wang Anshi's changes in the Song Dynasty and Zhang Juzheng's changes in the Ming Dynasty.

Among these three people, Shang Ying was divided into five horses, Wang Anshi resigned and retired, Zhang Juzheng can be better, at least he was treated better during his reign, but after his death, he was almost whipped in the coffin, and his family was either starved to death or exiled.

Among them, Wang Anshi's reform is the most famous. Zhang Juzheng's change was the most successful.

When it comes to Wang Anshi's reforms, the main reason is that the state has seriously annexed land, a large number of peasants have lost their land, and the rich have concealed their land, resulting in a sharp drop in tax revenue and a fiscal deficit. In addition, there are also threats from ethnic minorities such as Liao and Western Xia.

In order to enrich the country and strengthen the army, Wang Anshi and Song Shenzong at that time hit it off, and then began to change the law. He put forward policies that were beneficial to the common people, such as the equalization law, the green seedling law, the farmland water conservancy law, and the exemption law. However, because he touched the interests of the landlords and tyrants and the bureaucracy, he finally led to the failure of the reform.

And the main reason for its failure is the problem of governance. He has good policies, but the people below him don't do their best, they drag their feet one by one, and they have turned good policies into a tool to collect money for themselves.

In fact, the current situation in Shaoguo is also very unoptimistic. Shaoguo is located in the north, and the peasants have a shorter time to cultivate than Yongguo. Shaoguo is vast and sparsely populated, and there are many barren mountains and wastelands. Much of the land was also concentrated in the hands of the tax-free elite. There are also threats from Dingguo and unscheduled harassment from the barbarian territory. Now we are in the midst of a withering talent, a shortage of young people, and a change of political power. Therefore, reform is imperative.

It is estimated that his father-in-law is also optimistic about his third brother's young and energetic characteristics, so he personally chose him as prime minister. And if his third brother wants to become a generation of famous ministers in the future and let Shaoguo flourish in his hands, the first thing is to take this opportunity to implement the reform of official governance.

Especially since the current situation is very unfavorable to him, he doesn't even have a person under him who can dominate, so even if he has the support of his father-in-law, it is useless.

In contrast, Zhang Juzheng's basis for the success of the reform is precisely the success of the rectification of the administration of officials. It has almost reached the upward and downward effect. The policies he made were implemented even from thousands of miles away.

"I think so, there are four main problems that exist in the current governance of officials." Wang Yuxun concluded: "First, the entire court is intertwined, lacks an assessment and promotion system, and mostly relies on seniority and dragging the door to find a relationship for promotion. Second, no one pays attention to the competence of officials. Once a person has been given an official position, it is rare for him to be dismissed, regardless of his ability. And those who are really capable are very likely to be denied entry. Third, related to the second point, is that there is only appointment, no punishment. This has led to an increasing number of officials inaction. As long as they don't make big mistakes, they can stay in their official positions for the rest of their lives. Even when they reach a certain age, they will be promoted because of seniority. Fourth, officials protect each other and corrupt their physique, and over time, today's government has been formed. ”

"This problem is not only in Yongguo, but also in Shaoguo, Dingguo and several other countries." Wang Ziyi added.

Wang Jibao smiled and said, "It's not just one dynasty, I'm afraid it's the same in all dynasties." ”

"I remember that I didn't answer this question at all. But later, we all read the answer that Baomei wrote to Brother Xi. Wang Yuxun said this, and looked at Wang Jibao.

Wang Jibao, who was named, immediately replied: "I seemed to say that the timing of the implementation of the reform of official governance is very important. And it's better to do it on a pilot basis. ”

"Yes, that's what inspired me. You said that the best reform of government is when the dynasty is changing. At that time, everyone only thought about how to keep their current official position, and no one wanted to come out and stir up trouble at this time, so as not to get into trouble. ”

Wang Jibao's thoughts at that time were not very perfect, but the general idea was these. So I was very embarrassed and said, "I was still young at that time, and I had limited time to think at that time, so there were still many things that I couldn't think perfectly. ”

"I thought the same thing as you, but how old were you?" Speaking of this, Wang Yuxun felt ashamed. At that time, I was sad for a long time to miss the position of champion, and now I think that I really haven't experienced any winds and waves at that time, and I haven't been deeply involved in the world!

Can Wang Jibao say that it's because she is a pseudo-Lori?

"I think that now in Shaoguo, it is this golden opportunity to implement the reform of the rule of officials." Wang Yuxun continued: "First, it is almost time to change the dynasty. Second, the regent was more far-sighted and would support the reform of the bureaucracy. Third, there are now more vacant positions in the court, which can be used to adjust official positions and fill in the people who can be used for us. We can also take this opportunity to salvage the current situation that is not favorable for us. ”

"Tell me about your plans, third brother." Seeing that Wang Yuxun was full of confidence, Wang Jibao knew that his third brother had already made up his mind.

"First, open Enke and recruit new talents to enter the DPRK. Second, just like my father and I, we recruit talented and virtuous people from other countries. Third, the existing personnel should be evaluated, and those who can live in it. Give way to those who do not act. Fourth, improve the policy of rewards and punishments, punish those who should be punished, and reward those who should be rewarded. Fifth, no matter who you are, if you are new to a position, you will have a probationary period just like the female official of your Zhan Mansion. If they meet the requirements, they will be retained, and if they do not meet the requirements, they will be relocated or dismissed. That's all my dad and I can think of, is probably that, is there anything else you can add, Baomei? ”

Unexpectedly, his third brother was quite well-informed, and he even inquired about the affairs of his Zhan Mansion.

After thinking about it, Wang Jibao added: "I think many officials initially want to be a good official when they get to a new position. Once he has been in a position for a long time, he will know everything about it. Over time, all kinds of bad thoughts came out. Just like the people we met when we went to Bongbuk-gun. Especially Xu Boyang, he originally wanted to be a good official for the people everywhere, but later he did a lot of wrong things for the so-called retribution. Now that I think about it, if he could have left Linyang County early, maybe he could continue to be a good official.

So, I think it's important to give a term to some important positions when necessary. Usually it's four or five years. At the end of this term, a comprehensive evaluation will be conducted. There are some key positions, and it's a good idea to let them change positions regularly. In the process of changing positions, the next incumbent can also supervise the previous incumbent. That way, the previous one wouldn't overdo it. This is also a kind of supervision. ”

Wang Yuxun nodded and said, "Hmm." I think this is necessary. ”

Wang Jibao continued to propose: "The third brother can conduct an evaluation of the existing officials. For example, the ability of the household department can be assessed to audit the accounts. If the household officials do not know how to check the accounts and all point to the people below to do it, it is easy to be deceived by the people below. Then he would be incompetent as this household official. Of course, the officials of the criminal department will evaluate the criminal law, and in addition, they will also take some files to assess their ability to adjure cases. Then there is the Ministry of Industry, which most directly assesses their repair of Shao Palace. Shaogong Palace has undergone a change in the former palace, and there are many places that are dilapidated. It is in need of repair. But if you really look at the twists and turns of the Ministry of Industry a few days ago, the amount of silver spent is too great. Moreover, the most unrealistic thing is that the Shao Palace is currently a master of the little emperor, what is the use of cultivating so gorgeous and complete? As for the officials, you can evaluate the issue of their reform of the administration of officials. ”

Wang Jibao's suggestion directly derived the first in-service civil servant examination in Shaoguo after that.

Of course, Wang Jibao also thought about some big things such as land and tax reform, but now her ideas are not mature. Second, Wang Yuxun and Wang Ziyi have not yet gained a firm foothold in Shaoguo. So everything needs to be done slowly.

Moreover, she still has a large number of barren mountains and wastelands in her hands that need to be developed. This is also a major event related to the future development of Shaoguo.

In the following days, Wang Ziyi and Wang Yuxun began to work overtime. They outlined their ideas and plans one by one in Zhu Yonghong's compromises. Sure enough, it was appreciated by everyone in Zhu Yonghong.

In order to support the work of the father and son, Zhu Yonghong arranged a large number of people to assist them.

At this time, whether it is to continue the reform of the imperial examination system led by Wang Ziyi in the past, or to implement the reform of the administration of officials proposed by Wang Yuxun, the best premise is that almost all of the remaining people in the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty are Zhu Yonghong's people.

Although they may still disagree with Wang Ziyi and Wang Yuxun, for the sake of Zhu Yonghong's face, they don't dare to say the word "no".
