Chapter 686

In the spring of the fourth year of Shenwu, the whole world was very peaceful.

Zhao Kuangyin of the Central Plains was still lying on firewood and tasting gall. It was wrong. He was carefully preparing and constantly cutting power for the vassal states.

First, the Song Dynasty court dispatched tens of thousands of men from near the Jin Dynasty to build river embankments to ensure spring plowing and grain supply.

Later, Zhao Kuangyin used civil officials as a prefect of the state affairs and punished the ills of the five dynasties for their prosperity.

At that time, the Five Dynasties of the Central Plains were replaced, with no less than dozens of kings in different surnames and those with the seal of the emperor. These people all existed. For Zhao Kuangyin, it was just a strategy for the stable rule when he succeeded to the throne. With his stable position in recent years, he was unwilling to accept it, fearing that others would learn from him.

So, he used Zhao Pu's strategy to gradually reduce his power, either because of his death, whether he moved, retired or took other positions from afar, and replaced him with civil officials.

From then on, the situation of military people governing the people was changed, and excessive literati people governing the people was a great plus for people's livelihood.

Although literati are also corrupt, military men are even more overdoing.

Military men often plunder the people, and they do not collect taxes regularly. They collect as much as possible. When they are in a good mood, they will carry out a massacre, risking their best efforts and doing whatever they want, and the people will suffer greatly.

In fact, the southern countries had already experienced excessive literati rule in the people, but the Central Plains was still the same. Except for the dozen prefectures and counties around Kaifeng Prefecture, Zhao Kuangyin could not bear it anymore, so he began to reform.

In addition, Zhao Kuangyin also implemented three measures to improve people's livelihood.

First of all, I will issue an edict to not pursue the county officials Huizhou.

During the Five Dynasties, each county collected taxes and the prefectures ordered county officials to gather in the prefectures.

Therefore, county officials must be corrupt and pay more taxes to bribe state officials. In this way, the people will face more additional taxes, which will destroy their families and make them suffer.

Zhao Kuangyin did not allow Jixian officials to treat the disease but not the root cause!

Secondly, the court ordered that each prefecture and county re-establish charity warehouses, and the officials collected two taxes, and each stone was saved in the charity warehouse to prevent bad luck.

There is nothing to say about this. [Bayi Chinese website www.zwdu8.me] is a normal move by the court, but it is also abnormal. This is the first time in the past few decades that the court has focused on the people and began to exercise the responsibilities of the court. It is also a good thing.

Third, the magistrates of the states were first appointed.

In each state, the position of general judge is set up to assist the chief officer in charge of military and civilian affairs, with a slightly lower status than the chief officer, and performs supervisory positions.

There are two major prefectures. More importantly, Zhao Kuangyin ordered the prefectures and counties under the Jiezhen Town to set up a magistrate so that the officials of the prefectures and counties could submit a letter to the court, which belongs to the court in name but not to the vassal state, so the Jiezhen governor's rights were light.

Li Jia also set up magistrates in various states.

Thanks to the situation where literati in southern countries are in power, local power is lighter than central power, so the position of Tongzong does not have the power to supervise local jurisdiction, but rather divides the power to local justice.

Let me put it this way, the judging of the Tang Dynasty actually cut off the power to hear cases from the local chief officials and specializes in the trial of cases.

This is called career and specialization.

A civil servant may be able to govern the people well, but he is not a good judge. Theoretically, judicial justice is actually closer to the people and more important.

The Tongzong is dedicated to the judicial and judicial system of trials. The Transport Department is responsible for tax collection, the inspection is responsible for public security, and the county magistrate is responsible for administration. In a sense, the local government is in a situation where the four powers are separated.

This is a great situation for the court. Everyone has clear responsibilities and cannot shirk responsibility.

The Northern Song Dynasty was constantly reforming, balancing domestic power and strengthening centralization. Li Jia's Tang Dynasty court was not willing to be lonely and was constantly carrying out reforms.

Jingnan Prefecture.

The storefront of the tavern is not big. Due to the rain, the soybean oil lamp was lit, and there were only a few guests. When the guy saw Zhang Kai, he greeted him like he had picked up a ingot and said, "Oh, Zhang Langjun, you haven't come to my small shop some days. The boss muttered, "I haven't neglected you, why don't you come again?"

"Isn't this the imperial court preparing to inspect the fields? After being busy for most of the day, the unlucky people still refused to let go. The inspection camp was dispatched, and I don't know what was going on!"
