Chapter 566 Two salted fish with no hope of life... (first update)
Seeing the official's eagerness, Wu Zhi was heartbroken, but he could not help but respectfully present the two copied memorials.
Zhao Ji, an official, looked at the memorial in his lap with his eyes straight, clicking his tongue from time to time, and occasionally nodding and smiling with deep approval.
"Okay, okay, I am worthy of Xiao Gao. He actually came up with such a clever plan to solve the problem of redundant officials in the Song Dynasty."
"The Ministry of Household Affairs is not the same as the Ministry of Household Affairs. It is responsible for managing the household registration and people's livelihood in various prefectures and counties in Tiandong. The three additional departments have clear responsibilities and powers.
In this way, the disadvantages of unclear responsibilities and powers in the court and even local governments and overstaffing have been solved..."
"Mr. Wu, are these all from Xiao Gao's leg pens?"
Seeing the official Zhao Ji looking at him with open eyes, Wu Zhizhong nodded slowly but firmly.
"It's true, the old minister and Chen Shilang are also deeply impressed by Xiao Gao's talent. Only a talent like him, which has not been seen in the world for hundreds of years, can think of such good strategies."
Chen Shilang silently watched the cordial exchange between Mr. Wu and the officials in front of him.
Although these two strategies were both inspired by Xiao Gao, there were some things that did not meet Mr. Wu's ideas and ideas, such as setting up eight Cao Cao in the state government office and eight houses in the county.
But seeing that the officials mistakenly believed that these were not what Xiao Gao thought, but Mr. Wu just pushed the boat along without taking any credit, Chen Shilang could remain silent.
It was not until the monarch and his ministers discussed for a long time that the official Zhao Ji took the two memorials with great satisfaction.
"In my opinion, it would be easier to dismantle the boat department, and it would be better to select scholars through the imperial examination to improve it.
Just setting up academic officials in prefectures, prefectures, and counties is an extremely complicated matter, and we can do it slowly."
"Well, I will accept the two memorials first. I need to consider them carefully."
#####
After the two Qings left, the official Zhao Ji still walked in front of the case, looking at the two memorials repeatedly and carefully considering the feasibility.
As for the strategy of selecting scholars through the imperial examination, we can plan it slowly. We must first set up academies in various prefectures, prefectures, and counties in the Song Dynasty to teach them.
When he thought that there were fourteen states in the entire Song Dynasty and more than 240 states, Zhao Ji, an official, felt a little overwhelmed.
As for the policy of splitting the household department, according to the memorial, it can be divided into the household department, the tax department, and the branch department. One of them is the border department.
The so-called "frontier" refers to a territory, and it is also a term for a land. Gao Zhang probably explained the concept of "frontier" to Wu Zhizhong.
In fact, not only land and resources, but also salt tea monopoly, iron ore, various metal minerals and coal can be managed by a clear department.
Just like the Song Dynasty, the three envoys were responsible for whether the salt and iron were correct and the tax branch. It happened that the salt and iron belonged to the Xinjiang Department, and then there was a tax department and a branch.
In the end, only a simple household department was left. Just do the work of the household department honestly.
In this case, the structure of three provinces and nine ministries should be focused on, so that many officials who have no job but receive salaries can have serious work.
It can greatly solve the problem of overstaffing.
"Xiao Gao, Xiao Gao, can I seriously surprise you again and again?"
"These two strategies are enough to solve the problem of redundant officials in the Song Dynasty for hundreds of years."
"Yang Jian!" Following the official's shout, Yang Jian quickly took a step forward.
No, after the official finished shouting, he raised his leg to signal Yang Jian to stop talking.
He walked back slowly, and after thinking carefully for a long time, he spoke.
"Let me think carefully about these two strategies first before making any calculations."
Yang Jian nodded, turned around and pointed at the half-painted masterpiece and whispered a reminder.
"No, slave Minghong, please take a look at that painting..."
"Oh..." Zhao Ji, an official, raised his eyebrows and glanced at the two memorials with some hesitation.
"Well, I will finish the painting first, and then I will give Xiao Gao a good plan to check it carefully later."
While shutting up, Guan Jia placed the two memorials on the desk and once again immersed himself in artistic creation.
The brush in his leg began to carefully outline the masterpiece of art, and a stunning beauty soon appeared on the subject of his brush.
Two major government affairs involving the political structure of the Song Dynasty and the reform of the imperial court structure were left there, like two salted fish with no hope of life...
#####
On the way out of the palace, Chen Shilang couldn't help but mention why Mr. Wu didn't take credit for his work just now.
Facing Chen Shilang's question, Wu Zhizhong stroked his long beard and showed a meaningful smile.
"With a little merit, so what if Wu is old and old and fights? What if he doesn't fight?"
"If you ask again and again, it will be enough if the officials can make up their minds and reform the evils and establish new ones."
After hearing Wu Zhizhong's explanation, Chen Shilang bowed respectfully to Wu Zhizhong with sincerity.
Wu Zhizhong let out a faint sigh and continued to move forward slowly.
"In the past, kings were dull and busy and only knew how to play. But the powerful eunuchs and treacherous ministers in the court controlled the affairs of the country, and the world was in the east..."
It can be said that he, Wu, was very disappointed with the political environment of the Song Dynasty.
He has even given up on himself, thinking that he might as well confront Cai Jing a few more times.
If Cai Jing can be defeated, it will also help to improve the political environment in the court. If he cannot be defeated, in other words, he will be relegated.
Then you can consider whether you are doing your best and have a clear conscience.
Could it be that since Gao Zhang's eleven-year-old child prodigy turned out to be the number one scholar, that kid has won the favor of the emperor in a short period of time?
Seriously, this guy is not like the traitor Cai Jing who manipulates power to satisfy his own greed.
It is also different from most of the ministers and ministers who keep their bodies in the right place and protect themselves wisely.
Although he was favored by the officials, his actions were not aimed at making the Song Dynasty a better place.
That made Wu Zhizhong finally put away his thoughts and thoughts and decided to continue to develop.
If there is a chance, he will secretly help the prodigy champion. In short, he, Wu, really wants to see how far Gao Zhang can achieve.
At that time, staying in the court could not only help the wrong party, but also remind the young man not to take the wrong path.
And Xiao Gao, the number one scholar, also used one outstanding performance after another to make him, Wu, feel deeply whether staying in the court was the wisest choice.
"Bo Nao Wu, although these two strategies are both good strategies, if the imperial court wants to implement them, I'm afraid it won't take the trouble to do so."
Wu Zhizhong nodded in agreement. A good strategy was indeed available. If he came from the east, he would like to see how to implement it.
The Emperor of the Dang Dynasty has always been lax in his actions, and often retreats when faced with difficulties.
If the resistance in the court is too great, we can just throw it away, or we can just throw the matter away and leave it to Cai Jingyu to fight with the civil and military officials.
