Two hundred and ninety-two blueprints

...

"Xu Wenjing, how many years have you been with me? I won't say much, just ask yourself if I value you very much?

In the war in Jizhou, you let 100,000 people from other races die for nothing. I will take the blame for you. I will also pretend that the matter between you and Cui Yingxin is not concerned.

There are also many sins that should have died hundreds of times but cannot relieve your hatred. I can all understand what you did. Do you know why?

Because you, Xu Wenjing, never lie to me, and I trust you unconditionally. If you want to ask who can be the best in the army, it is the military advisor.

I don’t want our goal to suddenly become confused or even stranger when it is about to be achieved, so please don’t lie to me?”

Xu Wenjing looked up at Liu Ce, but saw that Liu Ce was staring at him without turning his eyes, and the beard that had grown on the corner of his mouth added an indescribable majesty to him.

"King of Han!" The next moment, Xu Wenjing knelt down on one knee and said with a bitter face, "I have indeed concealed something about the trip to Shendu. I just want to let the military governor enter the capital soon and pacify the world..."

Liu Ce pondered for a moment, raised his hand and said, "Get up, tell me, why do you do this?"

Xu Wenjing said: "Reporting to the King of Han, cooperating with the Ghost Market is also a temporary idea. To be honest, my subordinates have not yet expressed any hope. However, if the momentum is achieved, the King of Han can easily enter the capital, reducing unnecessary trouble."

Liu Ce frowned: "Military advisor, do you think a mere underground kingdom can really turn the fate of a dynasty?"

Xu Wenjing said: "I understand the worries in the heart of the King of Han. Maybe it was not possible before, but the current situation in the Great Zhou may not be impossible..."

"Then you should have considered that whether it succeeds or not, God will have many innocent people who will ruin their lives, right?" Liu Ce asked.

Xu Wenjing nodded and refused to deny: "My subordinates know, but they can get long-term peace when they hurt for a while. Sacrifice of some people's lives can bring the world into a new era. All of this is worth it..."

Liu Ce shook his head, sighed, and continued to Xu Wenjing: "Forget it, when you go back, you order people to go to Shu, stop the escaped Wei clan relatives and take them all to the north..."

Xu Wenjing said: "If my subordinates know, if nothing else, I will take my leave first..."

"No hurry..." Liu Ce said, "Since I'm here, I want to have a good talk with you about the future of China and see if I can have good suggestions."

Xu Wenjing was happy when she heard this, and hurriedly bowed her hands to thank her and sat in front of Liu Ce.

Liu Ce said: "I will not mention the order after entering the capital. Regarding the amendment of the law, the Legal Affairs Department will also give a satisfactory reply.

I want to make large-scale innovations in civil affairs. In the past, when scholars mastered advanced resources, they must first be eliminated.

Let’s start with this officialdom. I plan to establish six ministries in the court, namely the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Justice, the Ministry of Works, the Ministry of Revenue, the Ministry of Personnel, and the Ministry of War, respectively, to control all industries in the world.

Needless to say, the Ministry of Rites needs to be supported by etiquette and law, and is also a necessary part of diplomacy with other countries.

The Ministry of Justice is responsible for legal affairs, in charge of criminal cases, large and small in the world, and maintain national order.

The Ministry of Industry is responsible for scientific and technological research, creating a powerful national defense tool, and promoting the progress of private productivity.

The Ministry of Revenue is in charge of all state taxes and can accurately propose the need to increase or decrease taxes according to different seasons. It is the core department of the operation of the dynasty.

The Ministry of Personnel is responsible for assessing the performance of local officials at all levels, including promotions, demotions, suspensions, salary increases, etc.,

In the end, the Ministry of War would not need to be burdened by this king, and naturally it was a department established for national defense and war.

These six departments are just a general calculation, with specific details. Each department under the jurisdiction and the responsibilities between each department will be listed in a detailed report.

Apart from these six departments, I chose officials based on the examination of further education. If you want to become an official at the grassroots level, at least you will not be admitted after graduating from middle school.

Of course, those who graduate from college can directly enter local high-level officials. Those who have outstanding political achievements in one or two years will be given priority to entering North Korea..."

What Liu Ce advocated was actually the "three provinces and six ministries system" in ancient Chinese feudal society. However, there were many differences, and the details were modified in detail, such as the three provinces were directly erased.

As for the choice of officials, they directly skipped the imperial examination and changed to candidates with diplomas as the core.

You should know that in the past two years, the exams from primary school to middle school in the past three years will be "dead" for more than 80% of them. It is even more difficult to get a high school graduation diploma and participate in the official assessment. It is already a blessing to have such a cruel competition in the official world.

However, once you become an official, the treatment you give is quite considerable, which is mainly reflected in your personal economy and status. Taking Xu Wenjing as an example, one general in the military has 5,000 acres of fertile land and 800 acres of land for planting economic crops (although Xu Wenjing did not want it).

This is just the basics. You can also receive many allowances and car fees every month. As long as this official lives a simple life and pays a salary, it will make the family live a comfortable life without spending a penny.

Therefore, even though we know that the competition for officials under Liu Ce's rule is very fierce, there are still many poor families and down-and-out scholar disciples who want to become officials.

Even if the children of wealthy and wealthy families and retail investors are scolded, many people want to squeeze in to the officialdom of the North to find a job. For example, Mu Yunzhen of the Mu family in the Far East scolded Liu Ce for being insulted, but his body was very honest. He tried every means to squeeze into the officialdom without doing anything else. This identity and status alone were unique.

After listening to Liu Ce's "Six Divisions System", Xu Wenjing agreed with his foresight, but at the same time she was a little unhappy, because she seemed unwilling to establish the position of prime minister again after Liu Ce's submission. This was quite different from Xu Wenjing's previous thoughts. He vowed to be the ruling of the court with one person below ten thousand people.

It seemed that Xu Wenjing was dissatisfied, and Liu Ce said to him again: "I know what you are thinking. I promised you that as long as you can help me become powerful, I will definitely repay you.

In addition to these six ministries, I also plan to set up a cabinet in the court, and the highest administrative officer of the cabinet is called the chief assistant. This position of the chief assistant is not allowed to enter unless those who have made great contributions to the court. I wonder if the military advisor dares to be the first chief assistant?"

Xu Wenjing's eyes lit up and she asked, "Please forgive me for being stupid. I dare to ask the King of Han, what is this auxiliary cabinet?"

Liu Ce said: "The Prime Minister's Cabinet mainly formulates departments that adapt to the situation for the court and the state. Its role is complementary to the six ministries. The internal affairs formulated directly affect the changes in the state during the term of the Prime Minister's tenure.

The chief minister has a position above the six ministries, and the members are selected from the officials with high qualifications or original intentions in the six ministries. The highest is the chief minister, followed by the second is the secretary and the member of the parliament at all levels. The first minister is the second term for five years, and the maximum term is re-elected for two terms.

As for the important matters that need to be handled, we will compare the six departments as the blueprint to develop a complete system to ensure the operation of the dynasty. Do you understand what this king means?"

Xu Wenjing frowned slightly, carefully recalling Liu Ce’s cabinet proposal, and finally realized it suddenly, and her body couldn’t help but tremble.

Because he discovered that there was a loophole in this cabinet, that was, it amplified the role of cabinet members and transferred the center of power of the monarchy to officials.

Based on Xu Wenjing's understanding of Liu Ce, he did not believe that Liu Ce would not notice this problem, so he could basically conclude that Liu Ce did it on purpose.

What exactly did Liu Ce want to do? Xu Wenjing discovered for the first time that she didn't seem to understand what this young warlord was thinking.

However, the position of the chief minister of the cabinet is very attractive. Even if you can only be re-elected for two terms at most, Xu Wenjing cannot resist this temptation of power.

Yu Shi quickly stood up and bowed to Liu Ce and said, "Thank you, King Han. I will definitely be the first chief minister and set an example for all the officials in the court in the future..."

Liu Ce sneered and stopped him and said, "Military advisor, don't rush to thank you. I have not agreed to give you the position of prime minister. If you want to be the prime minister of the cabinet, you must come up with some convincing means..."

When Xu Wenjing heard this, she was immediately dissatisfied and said to Liu Ce anxiously: "King of Han, don't choose it. Let me be the position of this auxiliary. I guarantee that I can handle all government affairs in the future new empire..."

Liu Ce shook his head and replied with a smile: "I will talk about these things later. I will put you on the agenda of the quota of the cabinet chief minister. However, before that, I still have some civil affairs and legal matters with you. I hope the military advisor will give you some opinions."

...

From noon to evening, Xu Wenjing walked out of Liu Ce's office.

"Awesome..."

Xu Wenjing took a deep breath, shook her head with a wry smile, and recalled the civil affairs and legal amendments that Liu Ce had made with him.

"I plan to completely liberalize the military ban after expanding the scale of industrialization. In addition to the standard military armor in the army, the people are allowed to hold weapons legally with certificates, so as to cultivate the spirit of martial arts for the whole nation."

"The education of the people is related to the national system, so when the world is stable, schools must be opened. Any young men and women who are of the right age must be forced to go to the school for free education, so that they will not spend their lives in ignorance."

"It is time to depose the law. The system of one person committing a crime and the whole family is too cruel. In the future, the situation of killing the nine clans and other tribes should be eliminated. The main criminals should be followed."

"I allow the people to choose suitable industries themselves, provided that they ensure that grain output can be at a safe level. After the world is settled, I hope to see a vibrant empire, rather than a numb scene."

"In addition, I propose to establish a charity organization with official advocacy, collect money from rich merchants, and then use it to subsidize poor places and try to get them out of poverty. Only when the people become rich can they have the cohesion to develop this country with us."

Liu Ce was kept in mind every sentence by Xu Wenjing. However, compared to these, he paid more attention to the position of the chief minister of the cabinet, after all, that was the highest honor in his life.

"The position of the chief minister of the cabinet can only belong to me, Xu Wenjing, no one can steal it from me!"
