Chapter 108: The Governor's New Deal
After Yi Dayong finished complaining, the four people present were a little unhappy in their hearts, and they were silent.
Yi Dayong was the most anxious, he saw that everyone didn't speak, and he took the initiative to speak again.
"What the hell is he thinking, our brothers have never had two hearts with him until now, why doesn't he put our brothers first? How to reuse those generals and subordinates. ”
Yi Dayong's tone was slightly dissatisfied.
Lu Zhao heard the meaning of Yi Dayong's words, and immediately reprimanded him: "Dashuai is thinking about the major events of dominating the world, our brothers will work hard for Dashuai, as long as Dashuai becomes the emperor in the future, our brothers are not bad at least a marquis, and when the time comes, maybe there will be a hereditary duke, how can you say so?" ”
Yi Dayong knew that his words were wrong, and immediately admitted his mistake.
"It's all my fault, I can't control myself all the time!"
"Okay, don't talk about this kind of complaint in the future, I believe that the big man will arrange our brothers reasonably, come, drink and drink!"
The four of them drank in the camp of Lu Zhao until late at night, and then stayed in the barracks outside the city that night.
That night, Mo Qian lay on the bed and couldn't sleep after a vicious battle with his wife Yang Suxin.
It has been more than a year since they got married, and Mo Qian and Yang Suxin can be said to be getting together less and leaving more.
Mo Qian often led troops out, Yang Suxin took care of Yang He alone in Yuanzhou, and after a year of marriage, Yang Suxin's belly did not move at all.
After cleaning up, Yang Suxin got dressed and got up, brought a bowl of ginseng soup and handed it to Mo Qian: "Husband, work hard all day, let's finish drinking ginseng soup!" ”
Mo Qian leaned on the head of the bed, took the ginseng soup and drank it, and a warm current suddenly appeared in his abdomen.
Yang Suxin watched Mo Qian finish drinking the bowl of Chinese medicine, and found that his brows were furrowed, and he couldn't help but ask curiously: "Why is my husband worried, but he has encountered difficulties?" ”
Mo Qian sighed and said: "The righteous army has expanded by 30,000 horses, and I want to reorganize the righteous army and horses, and divide these 50,000 people into two armies and five battalions, but the main general has not been determined, and the top priority is to form a government of the righteous army, what should the government be called?" ”
Yang Suxin is a child of the rivers and lakes at any time, but she has been in the scholar's house all the year round, and she has a lot of whispers with Yang He, and she also knows a little about the affairs of the government.
She put forward her opinion and said to Mo Qian: "Husband, are you worried that Brother Lu has too much power in the army, which will make it impossible to control it in the future?" ”
Mo Qian nodded, "There is one point, Lu Zhao and they were born and died with me, and they were the first veterans to cause trouble, but we must not ignore the lessons of Zhu Yuanzhang back then, when the Ming Dynasty was founded, the Huaixi generals were a group of scourges, I am afraid that they will follow the old path of Lan Yu and others, so I am worried." ”
Yang Suxin frowned when she heard this, what Mo Qian said was indeed a problem.
After thinking for a while, she said again: "Husband, do you want to promote Qian Rao to be the commander of the first army, so as to balance the veteran?" ”
Mo Qian nodded, "I do have this thought!" ”
"Husband, don't do anything!" Yang Suxin immediately objected.
"Why?" Mo Qian's face was full of question marks.
Yang Suxin put down the soup bowl, lifted the quilt and got in, hugged Mo Qian and said: "Husband, the emperors who have achieved great things throughout the ages, all of his subordinates are fierce generals like clouds, and strategists are like rain.
The ambition of the husband is to set the world, if you want to succeed, in the end you have to rely on the group of generals who are willing to be born and die for you, the husband now occupies only half of Jiangxi and a Changsha Mansion, there is still a long distance from the world of Dingding.
If the husband starts to guard against the veteran at this time, it will inevitably make the veteran's heart cold, and then the veteran will feel unfair in their hearts, and they will lose their enterprising spirit.
These veterans are not willing to contribute to you, and who will be willing to give you their lives in the future.
According to the concubine's opinion, the husband should not only promote the veterans such as Brother Lu, but also reuse them, and rest assured that he boldly delegates power to them, so that they will inevitably fight hard for your hegemony, so as to win a hereditary title.
As for the husband's worries about their success, there is no need to worry, there will not be only a few of them under the husband's command in the future, and when the husband has conquered more places, there will be many people and officials and soldiers in various places who surrender, and the husband can gradually use new people and generals in the future. ”
"But now that Qian Dayou is already in Changsha, I can't send someone to replace him, besides, if I send another general to go now, then Qian Dayou will definitely be cold, and he will be cold, which will cause the surrendered generals of the rebel army to also be cold."
The question thrown by Mo Qian made Yang Suxin feel shocked.
"What the husband said is also that Qian Dayou is irreplaceable in Changsha, even so, the husband simply expanded to five battalions, except for the Qian Dayou in Changsha, the remaining four battalions are all veterans, so that the contradiction between the veteran and the general can be reconciled, what does the husband think?"
Mo Qian thought about it, and his heart could only be like this.
Originally, he wanted to expand the 50,000 soldiers and horses into two armies and one battalion, and the commanders of the two armies were promoted by Lu Zhao and Qian Dayou, and he himself led a battalion to be stationed in Nanchang as a standing army.
Now it seems that it is not feasible to expand into two armies, so we can only temporarily expand to five battalions and promote three veterans to serve as chief officers.
Having decided on the issue of the army, Mo Qian began to think about administrative issues again.
"The reform of the army is temporary, but the administration must be carried out, I plan to reorganize the Marshal's Mansion into the Governor's Office, take the governor of Jiangnan, separate the administration from the judiciary, the judiciary does not interfere with the administration, the administration does not interfere with the judiciary, so that the judiciary is independent of the military and the government, do you think it is feasible?"
When Yang Suxin heard this, his eyes lit up.
"The husband is really a genius, if the judiciary is independent, the local judicial officials don't have to look at the face of the county prefect, this is good governance!"
Mo Qian saw that his wife supported him and knew that judicial independence was a feasible step.
In this era, the chief official of a county and a government had great power, and he was not only in charge of administration, but also in charge of justice.
The power is so great that all the affairs of a county are decided by one person, and he can say that one is one and two is two, and this is very easy to cause corruption.
According to the report handed down below, there have been cases of corruption by the town mayor in a few townships and towns, although the amount is not particularly huge, but Mo Qian has to guard against it.
As a traverser, he knows very well how corrupt the ancient government was, even if it was the death of the Ming Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty, the Manchu Dynasty was extremely corrupt throughout the whole dynasty, otherwise the words of the Qing Governor's Mansion and 100,000 snowflakes of silver would not have appeared in three years.
The Manchu Qing Dynasty was corrupt, and the Ming Dynasty's officials were equally corrupt, which in the final analysis was caused by the imperial examination system and the lack of independence of the judiciary.
If we want to establish a clean government, we must divide some of the power in the hands of the chief official and let him lose some of his power, so as to cut off some of the ways of corruption.
"Thank you for the compliment, it's not early, let's rest early, there are still many things to deal with tomorrow!"
With that, Mo Qian got up and blew out the candle, ran back to the bed at a very fast speed, and hugged Yang Suxin tightly after getting into the bed.
Not long after, Yang Suxin's reproachful voice came from the bed.
"Didn't you say sleep, why are you still moving around here!"
"After drinking ginseng soup, this body is hot, I have to dissipate heat!"
"How can you have such a ...... for heat dissipation?"
.....
Early the next morning, Mo Qian called General Lu Zhaosi and Cao Guoqi Cheng Zhidun in Nanchang early, and even Wang Bingzhong in Yuanzhou was called back by Mo Qian a few days earlier.
Sitting on the throne of the Grand Marshal's Mansion, he said very solemnly: "Everyone, this is a document drafted this morning on the new Criminal Law Division, you can take a look!" ”
Lu Zhao and the four of them didn't understand the text, so they mainly watched Cao Chengwang and the others.
After reading the contents of the document, the three of them couldn't help but be surprised.
Wang Bingzhong, the eldest, sighed: "My lord, my lord, this law is a new law that has not been implemented for thousands of years, and if our righteous military government can implement judicial independence, it will be incomparably honest and honest, and it can be called a model in the world!" ”
"Yes, my lord, the power of criminal law will be stripped from the hands of the prefect of the county, so that the problem of corruption can be eliminated, and the prefect of the county can be put into civil affairs for a new time, and the main document mentions that there are three branches in the criminal law department, one is the judgment department, the second is the arrest department, and the third is the inspection department, and these three departments and yamen perform their duties, and the arrest department is in charge of arrest issues, the judgment department is in charge of trial issues, and the inspection department is in charge of litigation issues, so that the three divisions and yamen are not subordinate to each other, and most of them can eliminate the problem of collusion."
Mo Qian saw that the three of them supported his own issue of judicial independence, and he was also a little happy in his heart.
He just used the three sets of yamen of the public procuratorate and law in later generations, and these three departments did their own work, which can be said to be ahead of their time in this era.
Mo Qian said: "There are still quite a lot of details to be discussed, the three of them can find some criminal punishment personnel, specifically study this sign, in addition, you can call more officials with judicial experience to participate, everyone discuss more, discuss the details clearly, and when you are done discussing, write a summary and submit it to me, and I will sign it after reading it!" ”
"Yes!"
"In addition, I will reorganize the Great Marshal's Mansion, which will no longer be called the Grand Marshal, and the Grand Marshal's Mansion will be changed to the Governor's Office, and I will take the Jiangnan Governor's Office, and the Governor's Mansion will have full authority over the military and political affairs of the Righteous Army, and the subordinate military and political affairs will be separated, and the army shall not interfere in local administrative and judicial issues, and the localities shall not interfere in military affairs.
In addition, the families of you officials and generals are no longer allowed to have special privileges in the future, and those who have servants in the family must sign a labor contract with the servants, and the time and treatment must be specified in the contract, and the statute of limitations of a contract shall not be greater than three years, and no hegemonic contract shall exist.
When the three-year contract time has expired, the servant shall not be hindered from leaving, and the servant shall have the right to choose the owner independently, and the servant's rights shall be equal to that of the people, and the servant shall not be treated as a subordinate.
Remember, people are here to work for you, not to be slaves for you.
In addition, all household registration systems will be abolished, and the household registration system will be the responsibility of the yamen of the inspection department, and the people of the yamen of the inspection department will be responsible for registering the people.
As for the artisan registration, military registration, music registration, and other lowly registrations, all will be abolished, and from today onwards, all prefectures and counties will no longer be allowed to exist in brothels, and all places will be banned, and all ordinary people will be treated equally, regardless of whether they are farmers and businessmen, and they will enjoy the same rights.
Officials who break the law are guilty of the same crime as the common people, and the children of all lowly backgrounds can study in the future and participate in the imperial examination.
In addition, the imperial examination should also be reformed, and we should not only take the examination of the Four Books and the Five Classics, but also the examination of various miscellaneous subjects such as agriculture and engineering, all of which must be reformed immediately. ”
Mo Qian said too much, Wang Bingzhong and the three of them only felt like an earthquake had occurred after listening to it, and there were too many policies to be implemented by the lord, and they couldn't react for a while.
"My lord, so many places need to be reformed, I'm afraid it will take a lot of manpower to participate, but now we have too few officials, I'm afraid that the reform policy will progress slowly!"
Mo Qian said with a smile: "If there are not enough people, then recruit those local talents to raise people, as long as they are talented, they can be selected for the righteous military government, but these people must pass the examination, as for the senior civil officials, the three of you go to check the township magistrates, see if there are any outstanding political achievements, you can be quickly promoted to Nanchang, I still have a lot of things to do."
But now the first one is to ban some Fengyue places, Lu Zhao! ”
"The last general!"
"You immediately lead the troops and seal up all the brothels in Nanchang Mansion for me, and the brothel boss and the boss behind the scenes will all arrest me and bring them to the Governor's Palace, and I will interrogate them personally!"
"Yes!"
Lu Zhao went out with people in a hurry, and for a while, soldiers and horses were rampant in Nanchang City, and the people didn't know what was going on, and they all looked lively.
.....
Yunliang Pavilion, located next to the East Lake in the eastern city of Nanchang Prefecture, is a four-storey loft building.
This is a well-known entertainment place in Nanchang City, and it is the favorite gold cave of Nanchang Mansion officials and nobles in their daily lives.
Every night, Yunliang Pavilion is brightly lit, and I don't know how many rich people come to the tube for fun.
At noon that day, Yunliang Pavilion had just opened the door to do business, and since it was noon, there were not many people in the hall to consume, so it seemed to be a little deserted.
A few hangover wealthy businessmen had just gotten up in the hall, and the woman with white flowers in their arms was wanton in the bed, and then they got up and left.
Several people were pharmacists from Zhangshu, and they had just pulled five boatloads of medicinal materials from Zhangshu, preparing to move Poyang Lake into the Yangtze River to send them to Yingtianfu for sale.
Since King Mo occupied most of Jiangxi, the business on the Ganjiang River has been much easier.
Except for the need to pay a toll tax every time you enter the river, you don't have to pay for the road at other times.
When the medicine merchants heard that the territory of the anti-thieves was so good, they came to the camphor tree to buy medicine, and the medicinal materials of the camphor tree became popular all over the south for a while.
As soon as several pharmacists got dressed and left, suddenly a group of rebel soldiers rushed over, and the turtle man who was sweeping the floor at the door saw it, and he hurriedly greeted him without knowing it.
"A few military masters, do you want some girls? I'm going to call the bustard! ”
Lu Zhao looked at the turtle in front of him, and couldn't help but sneer: "Girl? Nod your size, on the orders of the Governor of Jiangnan, all the brothels in Nanchang Mansion will be sealed, and if you come, take them all away for me! ”
