As the former emperor of the Wei Kingdom, Cao Cao also knew very well that Wang Can had to sit in the rear to eliminate the chaos in the world, otherwise chaos would easily arise. Especially in the past year or two, Wang Can had made drastic reforms.
, making the world a new one, no longer as chaotic as it was in the past. As for Wang Can's promise, Cao Cao has put it in his heart and even forgotten it.
Now Wang Can brought it up again.
Even though Cao Cao had a very strong psychological quality, his heart skipped a beat at this moment and he said: "Your Majesty, please make it clear!"
Wang Can knew that Cao Cao would definitely remember it, but he just didn't dare to bring it up.
He did not beat around the bush and went straight to the point: "I have a dream. The place where the sun shines is my land of China. Now that the country is stable, everything is on track. So next, I am preparing to conquer the unsubordinated land.
I am planning to capture Yizhou and Japan, and then attack the Kushan Empire."
After Cao Cao heard this, he secretly said that Wang Can did not lie to him.
However, Cao Cao was worried.
Cao Cao knew that Wang Can was sending troops, and he would definitely take him with him because of his old promise. He could follow Wang Can and no longer have to do nothing all day long. However, Cao Cao hoped that the people in the world could live a stable life.
Therefore, Cao Cao solemnly said: "Your Majesty, I object to the immediate expedition."
Wang Can asked: "Why?"
Wang Can was a little surprised by Cao Cao's opposition. According to Wang Can's opinion, Cao Cao should support it.
Cao Cao solemnly said: "Your Majesty, now that the country has been settled, it is necessary to strengthen the foundation and appease the people. Even if there are no more rebels in the world, it will still take some time for people to feel at ease. If your Majesty fails to send troops and the news is spread back to the country, it may
It leads to turmoil. The world will soon be at peace and cannot withstand the storm."
Wang Can heard this and looked at Cao Cao with an expression of appreciation in his eyes.
Cao Cao was thinking about the common people in the world.
This is Cao Cao.
He has great courage and courage, and he is also a person who is persistent, principled and bottom-line.
Wang Can confidently said: "Brother Meng De's consideration only involves the worst aspect, but ignores the best aspect. In any era, opening up new territories is a great achievement and can inspire people. I will lead you
When soldiers go to war, as long as they win and the news spreads back to the country, the people will naturally be excited. Who would dare to have second thoughts?"
Cao Cao said: "This is only a good aspect."
Wang Can continued: "Furthermore, I do not plan to lead an army of hundreds of thousands to the expedition, and it is impossible for the whole country to leave. To stabilize the country, the army needs to be in charge, and we cannot fight uncontrollably. When I go south for the expedition, I am only mobilizing a small number of troops.
In this way, the burden of fighting is small, and even if we fail, it will not affect the overall situation. What do you think, Brother Meng De?"
Cao Cao nodded and said: "Your Majesty is wise!"
He also agreed with Wang Can's proposal.
If it is just a small-scale war, it will not cause any burden to the Shu Kingdom. If a hundred thousand or even hundreds of thousands of troops are mobilized, it will easily damage the foundation and affect the newly stable Shu Kingdom.
Wang Can took out another edict and said, "Brother Meng De, this is an adjustment I have made to the court. Take a look."
Cao Cao took it and looked at it carefully.
At this moment, Cao Cao was even more shocked.
Cao Cao looked admiring and said sincerely: "Your Majesty's reform is really wonderful and courageous. According to your Majesty's adjustments, it can prevent the expansion of the military power of generals and eliminate the collusion between local officials and the army. Civilian officials are responsible.
In handling government affairs, the army is responsible for protecting the country and the people, and performs their respective duties. In addition, after the reform of the court, it can also prevent those who have arbitrary power and become more stable."
Wang Can said: "Brother Meng De's words make sense. You go back and make preparations. Now that spring has just begun, after I have taken care of some things, I will prepare for the expedition. The reason why I told you in advance is that I have been worried about it for the past two years, and I have not
Any action, I'm worried you'll be in a hurry."
Cao Cao said: "I don't dare!"
The two discussed the expedition again, and Cao Cao withdrew.
Wang Can looked at Cao Cao's leaving figure with a look of anticipation on his face. The content of his edict was a reform of the world, because Wang Can abolished the position of state pastor.
At the end of the Han Dynasty, due to Liu Yan's suggestion, Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty enhanced the power of the Zhou Mu, allowing the Zhou Mu to take control of the military and political power. As a result, countless princes were born, and local governments were independent of each other.
After Wang Can abolished the state pastors, the governors were in charge of each state. However, the governors only had the power to govern the local area and could not mobilize the troops stationed in each state. The troops stationed in each state were uniformly dispatched by the imperial court. Without the order of the imperial court, they could not act rashly.
This is to separate the local military and political affairs.
In addition, Wang Can took back the power of the governor, county governor and other officials to recruit officials. All officials at the county level and above were appointed by the imperial court. After all, there was scientific research, and the energy source continued to enrich the officials. Even Wang Can
It is clearly stipulated that officials above the county level cannot stay in one place for a long time and must be rotated within a certain period of time.
In addition to these, there were also reforms within the imperial court. Wang Can ruled the world without setting up a prime minister. In Wang Can's view, the power of the prime minister's position was too great. Wang Can had already established six ministries, which laid the foundation for the six ministries in later generations. In order to alleviate
Regarding Wang Can's own government affairs, he imitated the Ming Dynasty's cabinet and formed the Shu cabinet.
This is to prevent the courtiers from becoming one family.
The advantage of this is that Wang Can's prestige and authority are enough to control the cabinet. As for future generations, if the king has enough ability and skill, he can make the ministers in the cabinet obedient. If the king is stupid, there can be stability with the presence of cabinet officials.
North Korea Bureau.
In the Ming Dynasty, many emperors were ignorant and ignored government affairs, and even the emperor ignored government affairs for more than ten years. However, the government could still continue without being abandoned and chaotic. This is the benefit of the cabinet.
Wang Can's series of adjustments were approved by Cao Cao, who issued an edict.
In the current imperial court, Cheng Yu is respected in the cabinet. When the six ministries were established in the past, Cheng Yu, as the official minister, was responsible for the most critical part of the court. Now he is the chief minister of the cabinet, which is a matter of course.
Especially under Wang Can, Cheng Yu was the first to submit to Wang Can, and he was also the oldest person. He was loyal, qualified and capable. Cheng Yu served as the chief minister of the cabinet, which reassured Wang Can. In addition, Xun You and Guo Jia
, Jia Xu, and Li Ru also entered the cabinet as cabinet ministers.
After this arrangement was conveyed, it caused an uproar in the DPRK. Because the establishment of the cabinet was equivalent to concentrating the power of the DPRK into the cabinet, enhancing the real power of Cheng Yu and others.
However, no official objected.
No one dared to object.
Especially for Cheng Yu, Xun You, Guo Jia, Jia Xu, and Li Ru, they were quite excited to be at the top of the court, but none of them were arrogant. They were all conscientious and handled government affairs in a down-to-earth manner.
"Report!"
A eunuch strode in.
The eunuch stood in the palace and reported: "Your Majesty, Ma Jun, Minister of Industry, is asking for an audience."
"Xuan!"
Wang Can ordered.
The order was passed on, and after a while, Ma Jun strode into the palace wearing a Jinxian crown and official robes. He stood in the palace, bowed and saluted: "My lord, Ma Jun, pays homage to Your Majesty."
Wang Can said: "Ma Qing, there is no need to be polite. You came here in a hurry, but what new items has the Ministry of Industry developed?"
Within the past two years, Wang Can compiled some of the ideas of later generations into a book, and then handed it over to Ma Jun, Pu Yuan, Mo Yan and others for the Ministry of Industry to start developing it, hoping to promote the development of science and technology. (To be continued)
