It is imperative for state-level officials to separate military and political power.
Qin Wenyao and others also agreed to Zhang Zian's proposal.
Emperor Wei looked at Zhang Zian and asked: "Zhang Aiqing, how do you think the power of the military should be separated?"
Zhang Zian smiled, smoothed his beard, and looked at Qin Yu, "I would like to hear my consort's opinion."
Qin Yu was stunned for a moment, then realized that Zhang Zian clearly wanted to take the credit for himself.
But he really didn't want it, but he couldn't live up to Zhang Zian's kindness.
Emperor Wei looked at Qin Yu and asked, "Consort, what is your opinion on this matter?"
Qin Yu said calmly: "The post of Governor will be abolished. From now on, only the governor will be in charge of government affairs at the state level. The governor at the county level will still be in charge of government affairs. The patrol camp will still be under the control of the governor and the prefect."
"Separate military, political and military affairs, establish a group army on a state-by-state basis, and add a group army commander to be in charge of military affairs."
"The military and government affairs of each state do not interfere with each other. The governor and the commander-in-chief of the group army are at the same level and are directly responsible to the court. The positions of commander-in-chief and governor of the group army are subject to rotation every five years. This can ensure local political and military stability."
In this era, strengthening centralization is very important for the stability of the country.
Military power must be firmly controlled by the court, otherwise situations like Xiao Wenmao and Yu Mingxuan will be inevitable.
Emperor Wei looked delighted and waved his hand, "Good! Very good! The post of governor should have been abolished long ago. Monopolizing military and political power is a cancer!"
With that said, he looked at Zhang Zian and asked, "Zhang Aiqing, what do you think of the consort's suggestion?"
Zhang Zian bowed and said: "On the whole, there is no problem. As for the details, we can discuss them in detail."
Emperor Wei nodded and looked at Zhou Chun, the Minister of Civil Affairs, "Zhou Aiqing, write down everything the prince-in-law said, and then discuss a detailed plan."
Zhou Chun saluted and said, "Yes, Your Majesty."
Regarding the question raised by Zhang Zian.
Emperor Wei was still very satisfied. This time Qin Yu and Xiao Nan were going to the county to rectify the official affairs, and they just happened to handle the matter in one go.
Only when the local officials were reorganized and the land reform was implemented, could the Wei Dynasty gradually get better and begin its next development.
Qin Yu's suggestions were unanimously approved by everyone.
At the same time, they also lamented the prince-in-law's quick thinking and profound understanding of military affairs.
Emperor Wei became more and more relieved about Qin Yu.
He believed that Qin Yu would be able to complete the reorganization of local officials and land reform very well.
Xiao Nan looked at Qin Yu with a shocked face and couldn't help but extend his thumb, "Brother-in-law, you are so amazing, how come you know everything?"
Qin Yu raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Low-key, low-key..."
There was a pause.
Emperor Wei thought deeply and said: "Now, the official selection system and the decentralization of local military and political powers have been finalized and standards have begun to be established. This is a good start."
"Having finished talking about the rectification of officials, let's continue the topic we just talked about. Do you have any opinions on the taxation of corvees in the Wei Dynasty?"
Although Emperor Wei spent almost all the money in the treasury this year.
But now, new tea, fine salt, spirits and glassware can bring stable and generous rewards to Wei every year.
Therefore, Emperor Wei still had confidence in the future development of the Wei Dynasty.
Qin Wenyao was the first to speak, "Land reform, as the name suggests, is to take back the land from the landlords and distribute it to the tenant farmers. However, no matter what means the landlords used before, we cannot inspect the land taken from the people in every village.
"
"So how to make landowners willingly hand over their land is a big problem. We can't use force!"
Hear this.
Everyone was silent.
Qin Wenyao is talking about the most realistic issues.
Because once the land reform is carried out, the biggest impact will definitely be on the landlord class. This is because the court wants to take the land from the landlord class forcibly.
The landlord class will definitely not take it out willingly, and there will definitely be a game in it.
Regardless of whether we use force or force, ensuring the interests of the people is the most important thing.
Emperor Wei frowned deeply and nodded.
Although he was the immediate emperor and liked to use force to solve the problem, he knew that he could not use force in this matter. There were many landlords in the Wei Dynasty, and they had a lot of money and food in their hands.
This kind of thing is still based on a tolerant policy.
Qin Yu thought for a while and said calmly: "The first thing we will carry out is the rectification of local officials, and then the land reform."
"After the local officials' crackdowns are over, it will definitely cause great psychological pressure on the landowners in various counties and counties. However, in order to protect their own interests, the landowners will also stay together and find ways to deal with us."
"Although we can use force, the impact will not be great, and it will also affect the speed of our land reform. So I will first seize two hard bones, and then use a soft policy towards the remaining landlords, using money and grain to buy their land, and then distribute it
To the people."
Buy with money and food!?
As soon as these words came out, the faces of Emperor Wei and all the humerus became ugly.
This is easy to say.
How much does it cost to cover the land of Wei Dynasty?
"Consort..."
Emperor Wei looked at Qin Yu and said helplessly: "You...are you simplifying this matter? Yes...our court has a little money now, but you know that the Wei Dynasty has
How much land is in the hands of the landlord? What can we buy it for? Even if you sell me, we can't afford it!"
Qin Wenyao and the others also looked at Qin Yu, with unhappy expressions on their faces.
Qin Yu said calmly: "Your Majesty, don't worry, I haven't finished yet. Not all of this money will be provided by the court, but the common people will also contribute half."
The words fell into place.
Emperor Wei and the others were even more confused.
The common people contribute half?
The common people can't even take the blame at home, so if they are asked to contribute half of it, it would be better to let them continue to be tenant farmers!
"It doesn't work!"
Emperor Wei waved his hand and said bluntly: "It won't work at all! The court has no money, and the people can't even afford it! You think too highly of the people!"
Emperor Wei always believed that Qin Yu was very considerate of the soldiers and civilians and could understand the sufferings of the people. He didn't know why he was so crazy today.
Qin Yu said calmly: "Your Majesty, don't be anxious. I haven't finished speaking yet. We don't have to give all the money together. The court will give 60%, and we will pay back 10% in six years. The common people will give 40%."
Pay it off in four years, starting from the second year when there is a harvest. In this way, won't the pressure on the court and the people be reduced?"
"Those landlords must have thought that the imperial court would forcibly take away the land, and we would use money to buy the land from the landlords. They must be very happy, and they might even say that His Majesty is wise."
