Chapter 503: The Ambition Is Unprecedented! (Ask for subscription)
Ji Heng smiled heartily.
He stroked the account and said: "Prime Minister Feng is really fast-talking, since Prime Minister Feng is so anxious, then I will not hide it." ”
Ji Heng glanced at several swordsmen on the side, took the initiative to get up, went to the open door of the main hall, and said a few words to the attendants guarding outside, and then, several attendants joined hands to close the door of the main hall.
I only heard a bang, the door of the main hall was completely closed, the sky was getting late, and there was no twilight light, and the whole hall was a lot darker.
Looked at.
Meng Tian and the others were stunned.
But he didn't care too much, but Ji Heng was alone, what could he do? However, judging from Ji Heng's cautious attitude, I am afraid that what he wants to say will not be so sparse and ordinary.
It may even be shocking.
Ji Heng returned to his seat, and did not add any more candles, and only a few fires were still burning around the entire hall.
Ji Heng said: "It's a matter of the world, so I will pay more attention, this meeting can be called a closed-door meeting." ”
"I'm free to speak."
"I have long heard the saying that politics is the art of compromise, and I am convinced of it, and I wonder what the ministers think about it."
Hear the words.
Meng Tian and the others showed a touch of different color on their faces, they didn't expect Ji Heng to be so direct, and they didn't expect Ji Heng to be so straightforward.
However, from this sentence, they also sensed some meanings, Ji Heng probably wanted to exchange some interests with them, and then accelerate the reform.
Meng Tian said: "I don't have a view, everything must be based on the overall situation and the world." ”
Ji Heng nodded and said with a smile: "It should be so." ”
"The Lords are the foundation of everything."
"And the emergence of the civil lord will definitely lead to a change in the law, but unlike the previous changes, the law of this reform is to slowly replace the change."
"The short ones are more than ten years, and the old ones are decades."
"In the past few decades, Daqin has changed in many ways, but the first thing must be the system."
"In addition to the division of military power just mentioned, it is also necessary to implement dual leadership in the world, that is, the set implemented for merchants in the past, in addition to the local officials in charge such as the county guard and county order, the political affairs in charge of the rest of the officials will also be managed by the corresponding central government office."
"Therefore, the power of the court will also be divided into two parts."
"Part of the government, part of the government, the government is under the command of the Prime Minister's Office, the person in charge is responsible for the heads of the ministries and offices, and is under the control of the Government Affairs Yuan, but the Prime Minister also leads the Government Affairs Yuan, which has a coordinating and planning role in the world's political affairs."
"But it's just the prime minister."
"In addition, the functions and powers of the Imperial History Office remain unchanged, and they are still responsible for supervising the officials of the world, but the local government offices also have the same functions, and the two belong to different parties and are not affected by the other party."
"For the military aspect, the same is true, the supervision function not only exists within the army, but also under the supervision of the Imperial History Office, or other official offices are responsible, and there is no order, and the cover does not obey the order."
“……”
Listening to Ji Heng's words, even Meng Tian's face couldn't help but sink, Ji Heng was constantly decomposing the authority of the three dukes, and at the same time compressing Jiuqing's status.
Almost all the powers of the ministers have been weakened.
In the past, the prime minister dominated the political affairs of the world, but now he only dominates the aspects of "politics", and only plays a coordinating role and supervising the "affairs".
It seems that there is not much difference, but in fact, the authority has been reduced a lot, and the Imperial History Office has also directly stripped away the power to supervise the military, and at the same time part of it has been stripped to the local government.
As for the power of the lieutenant, it is even more weakened.
Under Ji Heng's description, the power structure of Great Qin completely changed, becoming the government office, the prime minister's office, the imperial history office, the Taiwei office, the military affairs office, and several other newly formed official offices.
The 'Three Princes' became five or six people.
As for Jiuqing's weakened power, it has directly become a subordinate official office of the above several official offices, and the power has been divided into several.
This has become too much.
Ji Heng's face was calm, this is just the beginning, the existing political system of Great Qin is actually not too much of a problem, but it is too powerful.
Tao She's eyes were cloudy, and he said in a deep voice: "Your idea is indeed very bold, it can even be called crazy, the existing system of Great Qin is actually very perfect. ”
"For the establishment of the state system you mentioned before, it is actually very desirable, but under the state system, the government is subdivided, divided into governance and council, and then unified under the jurisdiction of the court."
"Your division is too unrealistic, and the demand for money and food in the world is also very high, as far as I am concerned, it is not advisable."
Ma Xing also said: "With such a subdivision of powers, the efficiency of political affairs will undoubtedly be greatly reduced, and there will be a lot of demand for officials, which is not something that Daqin can meet now." ”
"This method is not advisable!"
Other officials also spoke one after another, and directly rejected Ji Heng's proposal, such a division of power was too strong and too domineering, and it was impossible for them to accept it.
Ji Heng bowed his head.
He knew that these officials would not agree, and he did not expect to be agreed, but only to show his attitude.
Ji Heng said: "I know that these ideas seem unbelievable to you, and they are simply unacceptable. ”
"But in my opinion, rights should be kept in a cage."
"But what you said does make sense, if you want to promote and implement this system, it will take a long time, and you also need to invest a lot of manpower and financial resources."
"It's true that Daqin can't afford it now, but that doesn't mean it can't be borne in the future, so it's just my view of the system."
"Also."
"Let's talk about one that is closely related to you, since the officials of Great Qin enjoy retirement benefits, they naturally have to give up some things."
"And the ...... who gave up"
"It's the right not to pay taxes!"
"After waiting for more than ten years, or decades, the officials of Daqin, like the local people, have to pay taxes, and the civil lord only means that they do not have to serve."
"As for the reason, you may or may not know it, it is because of the annexation of land, and you have a lot of power in your hands."
"And in your capacity, you naturally do not need to pay taxes and food, but this also means that this is actually a convenient door for you and even the officials of the world, that is, some local people will take the initiative to 'sacrifice the land' to avoid forced labor and taxes."
"In the long run."
"Most of the fields are owned by officials and local tyrants, and less and less money and grain are collected by the court in the world, and the system of Daqin is already very expensive, and it has to bear a lot of expenses after the reform."
"In the end, it will only continue to be spread on the local Qiantou, so Daqin will not allow officials to pay no food and no taxes in the future, but before that, the court will not treat you badly."
"The treatment of officials will also be increased accordingly to make up for the lack of money and food for officials due to tax payment, this is just a statement, a statement to the people of the world, Daqin from the princes and ministers, down to the people of Limin, must pay taxes."
"No one was spared."
"Even the Emperor."
Hearing Ji Heng's words, the faces of the officials present changed even more, the previous division of their power had already made them a little jumpy and couldn't accept it, and now Ji Heng also played their 'benefit', which was really too much.
It's too frustrating.
Everyone present had a black face.
Even if Ji Heng said that he would increase the income in the future, this is still not something they can accept, once this opening is opened, the lost benefits are not at all what the imperial court's income can make up.
The looks of the ministers, Ji Heng saw clearly, it is difficult to implement these policies, because they have touched the core interests of officials, one power, one wealth.
But Ji Heng didn't care much.
He just told him everything, and as for whether it was successful or not, it was a process of mutual compromise.
Ji Heng continued: "In addition to these two aspects, Daqin will also make a series of adjustments in the law, and you should know about this part, so I won't say much. ”
"It's all based on the people."
"Again."
"Daqin will also relax the restrictions on household registration to a certain extent, allowing people to do business, craftsmen and other industries, and will also let farmers, Mojia and other schools build corresponding vocational and technical rooms in various places to cultivate and develop the skills of Daqin's hundred industries."
"This is also against the laws of Great Qin, but this is also inevitable, as far as the medical hall in the city is concerned, you probably all know about it."
"In fact, many people are homeschooled, but after so many years, many doctors are just reading from the book and following the map, and there is not much substantial improvement."
"Therefore, certain restrictions will be lifted and more people will be allowed to enter, so as to speed up the development of all industries and improve the accumulation of experience in all aspects of Daqin."
"This can not only improve the skills and level of Daqin in all aspects, but also have a strong promoting effect on the whole world."
"Of course."
"There are pros and cons."
"People in the world are profit-seeking, and they are all people who seek profit and avoid harm, and seeing that a certain line of business is profitable will inevitably lead to a large influx of many people, and then cause fertile land to be wasted and uncultivated."
"So there needs to be a certain threshold."
"That is, only those who have obtained the public service or even the people who are created are qualified to make choices, and they also need to go through professional screening before they can enter it."
"It's also based on some of the divisions in that newspaper."
"It's all going to happen later."
"Correspondingly, in the next ten years, or even decades, Great Qin will prepare for the redivision of state governance."
"Encourage people to have children."
"Based on the number of households, the final decision will be on the seat of state governance in a few decades, as well as the large counties in several major aspects under the state system, and these counties with large populations will also receive additional support from the court."
"There is also the reform of the field system, and now the land system in Daqin is relatively chaotic, and public ownership is mixed with private ownership."
"Kanto is not the same as Kanchu."
"In order to achieve the rule of the world, and also to curb land annexation, and to encourage the private sector to reclaim wasteland, I personally suggest that the nature of the land be divided into two."
"The fields within the city are owned by the state, while the fields in the local townships and li are owned by all the households in the local townships and villages."
"The court can't occupy it."
"In addition, the imperial court should send the children of the Mo family to re-measure the fields and re-divide the local townships and regions, so that under the governance of the township, they will definitely try their best to reclaim the wasteland."
"Because it's the land of the place."
"And the local government can only allocate these fields that belong to the townships, and as the population increases, clearing the land becomes indispensable."
"For the fields that are cultivated in the local area, how long the court will give rent and exemption is up to the Shaofu to decide."
"Local fields can only be transferred, not bought and sold, let alone sold to outsiders, and even if the meat is rotten, it can only rot locally."
"The court will not recognize any deed of sale of local land, and it will be illegal."
"In addition to the fields, there is also the encouragement of local production, as well as the vigorous promotion of new technologies and processes to speed up local production and recovery."
"For the skills and related people who have limited production and improvement, Daqin should give rewards."
"And the road."
"Except for special periods, the road will be relaxed to a certain extent, allowing local officials and merchants to travel, but the court can use this to charge a certain fee for crossing."
"In addition, under the condition that the economy allows, the court should give sufficient financial support for the construction of local roads, water conservancy and other facilities to speed up the flow of commodity information in the world."
"In order to speed up the integration and unification of the world."
"There is also the Great Qin to dominate the world, for the world is being shaped, when the world is widely recruited, the history of the Zhou Dynasty, in addition to the history of politics, but also the history of the corresponding changes, economic history, culture and science and technology."
"Take history as a mirror and history as a mirror."
“……”
Ji Heng said a lot in one breath, but many of the ideas he said were completely unexpected by everyone, and many people only felt refreshed.
But at the same time.
I also felt a deep pressure.
There are so many things to do, so much so that even just one thing makes them feel a headache, and perhaps the only thing that can be easily accepted by the world is to encourage childbirth to determine the state territory.
Other.
Each one is very difficult.
Some of the difficulties come from the court itself, some from local resistance, and some from the selfishness of officials and scholars.
A single piece makes people feel dizzy, and what Ji Heng wants to do is to complete it in one piece, this huge restructuring has recreated the world.
It completely surpasses any past change, and its depth, breadth, and scope of influence are not comparable to any past change.
The audience was silent.
The pen and knife clerk on the side also stopped the pen in shock, his eyes were full of disbelief and shock, the hand holding the pen was trembling, and he forgot what he should do.
The same is true for other officials.
Full of shock.
Before, Ji Heng targeted them, and they thought it was deliberate, but after listening to all of Ji Heng's thoughts, they suddenly understood that this was not intentionally targeted at all.
It's just a part of Ji Heng's restructuring.
What he wants is to overhaul the whole day, and to completely reform the system, the state, the style of governance, the people, and many other aspects.
The ambition is unprecedented.
Zhang Cang's pupils shrank, looking at Ji Heng's face twitching slightly, and he scolded the madman in his heart.
Lose your marbles.
Completely insane.
These ideas are so crazy that there is no compromise at all, and they just want to selfishly build a new world, and they don't care about other people's lives and ideas.
Long.
Meng Tian suddenly got up, stared straight at Ji Heng with his eyes, and said with a blue face: "Do you know how shocking your thoughts are? How unreasonable? Do you really think it's feasible?! ”
Ji Heng said with a smile: "That's why I said that politics is an art of compromise. ”
"And I think ...... too"
"It's man-made!" (End of chapter)
