The princes who were chased and intercepted settled directly in the public house of Qinzheng Hall.
As a result, the first draft of the Supervisory Yamen Detailed Rules was completed.
"My dear sirs, you have worked hard! This was supposed to be about setting national policies and discussing state affairs, but instead I worked hard for you to be scribes."
"However, I still have to mention some flaws. For example, the supervision of local officials, matters such as Dingkou, farmland, and criminal lawsuits under their jurisdiction are the business of the Ministry of Civil Affairs' Merit Examination Department, and the Supervision Yamen will not handle them."
"Since it is supervision and picketing, just like the imperial censor admonishing officials to criticize their character, their duties should be directed towards illegal things such as corruption and perversion of the law, oppression of good people, dereliction of duty and dereliction of duty."
"Also, it is not detailed enough, the content of supervision and inspection is not detailed enough, the punishment measures are not detailed enough, and the corresponding punishment for illegal and irregular things is not detailed enough."
"For example, what should I do if I am not in court for how many days or how many days without going to the Yamen? For example, what should I do if I have a banquet and play outside the Yamen and rest time, which delays my official duties? For example, if an official commits illegal acts, the chief official
Should the supervisory and leadership responsibilities also be dealt with? Wait, etc.”
"Of course, I am just giving an example. Whether these contents should be included in the scope of supervision and how they should be dealt with is for you to evaluate."
"There are also disciplinary measures. A warning is considered a punishment, a fine of copper is considered a punishment, an increase in the number of years of service is considered a punishment, transfer to the current position is also considered a punishment, and even severe downgrading, deprivation of honors, etc. are considered punishments. There should be a boundary here.
, which is the connection with violating the criminal law."
"The so-called supervision rules, in my opinion, are a supplement to the "Xingtong of the Song Dynasty" and are the rules that regulate various official behaviors of all bureaucracies."
"In this way, we can try our best to ensure that the supervisors have laws to follow, and avoid turning the supervisory yamen into a second censor's platform for admonishment."
"Similarly, the disposal powers of the censors at different levels are clearly defined. It does not require that all disposal powers be handed over to the court. They can each perform their duties and act in accordance with the law."
"Also, let me digress. The establishment of a supervisory office cannot be separated from the existing officials. With the current situation in Bianliang, it is not a long-term solution for you to hide in public affairs."
"Do you think this is feasible? You only need to draw up the general direction and framework, select some officials who are interested in supervision, and let them fill in the content. In this way, you can select the good ones and use them from the official work of improving the supervision details to achieve
The purpose of selecting personnel.”
The old ministers of the imperial court were asked to concentrate on working on the case, and Zhao Xi couldn't stand it.
For Zhao Xi, as long as the court unanimously approves the implementation of the supervision system, the princes will be done.
As for the ombudsman... after all, they cannot be separated from the existing officials, and it is difficult to avoid collusion with each other. It is better to put the problem on the table generously, maybe this can make them feel taboo.
"The government has given the ombudsman such heavy authority. Who will supervise the ombudsman?"
This is right! Zhao Xi wanted to applaud Fu Bi's words. This is the heart of governance.
It stands to reason that the official system of the country and the dynasty is so closely guarded against each other that you should have thought of ways to check and balance.
"What does the rich prime minister think?"
"Your Majesty, I believe that the power of the censor is too much. If there is a court office in Bianliang, they may strictly enforce it. Once it reaches the local area, it is absolutely impossible for such power to be unrestricted."
"The veteran believes that just like the supervisors are hierarchical, it is recommended that the local officials one level higher have the authority to supervise the subordinate supervisors. As His Majesty once said, the supervisory yamen can implement a dual-management system between Your Majesty and the local state officials..."
Regardless of whether there are loopholes in this, Zhao Xi is sure.
This is the first time that Zhengshitang has shown support for the reform of the official system, and Zhao Xi must be determined.
As for Zhao Xi's plan to expand the Imperial City Division and give it the authority to supervise hundreds of officials, he didn't want to mention it. Even if the princes knew about it, they wouldn't talk about it.
This is a system that was formed at the beginning of the dynasty, and it is a right that belongs exclusively to the king. In such a large dynasty, it cannot be justified that the officials do not have any exclusive rights.
"Your Majesty, how is the army? The subordinate supervisors are civilian officials, and the superior officials directly under them are likely to be military generals. Using military generals to supervise civilian officials is inconsistent with the country's policy of using civil society to control military affairs, and may be difficult to implement."
Wen Yanbo formulated the detailed rules for military supervision. He needs to ask clearly about this. Not to mention his objection to military generals supervising civilian officials, he was forced by official pressure and would rather not do it than risk the disapproval of the world.
"The army? It was originally decided to abolish the supervisory army and set up supervisors. I think we can add civilian officers to the army and copy the original guard battalion model."
"The military generals are in charge of operations and daily training. The civil and military officers are responsible for the rewards and punishments of the officers, their loyalty and education, their mental armament, and their daily lives. The supervisors are responsible for the supervision and implementation of regulations."
"At the same time, strip away the local officials' control and jurisdiction over the military units stationed there, so that the military units are completely separated from the local areas and directly under the direct control of the court. The civil and military officers belong to the Political Affairs Hall, the military generals belong to the Privy Council, and the supervisory officers belong to me..."
"With the reform of the military system, the functions of the military were clearly distinguished. The combat teams were separated from the local Jing'an. Those returned to the local areas were supported by the local government, while the combat teams were uniformly supported by the imperial court."
"Of course, civil servants and supervisors who serve in the military are not just like military generals who can be transferred between the court, the local government, and the military. In this way, many talents can be used both in the military and on the ground."
"Pass the local culture to the military, improve the cultural quality of the soldiers, and educate the concept of loyalty. Spread the bravery of the generals to the local area, promote the respect of all officials, and straighten the backbone of the literati of the Song Dynasty!"
The example of civil servants has been verified in the escort camp, so there is no problem with this.
The imperial court uniformly supports the combat teams, and there are three parties to check and balance each other, which can basically eliminate the possibility of military chaos.
"In the official family, local officials control the military. This is because they have posts and money..."
It's hard for others to tell, but Han Jiang must be warned.
"This is also part of the reform of the official system. I intend to clean up the many types of post-employment subsidies while keeping the benefits unchanged."
"Cancel the old rule of sending salary to the official, and determine the salary based on rank, assignment, and lord. Clean up all nominal titles. There must be a difference in treatment between those who have assignments and those who do not have assignments, including those with different ranks and lords."
"Of course, all this must be implemented while retaining the existing benefits. At the same time, all distributed items must be monetized. No longer will hair silk, Lumi, charcoal and other miscellaneous items be distributed, but they must be exchanged for equivalent currency.
Distributed.”
This should be what the officials want. The items distributed by the imperial court have always been items determined by the late emperor and even Zhenzong.
Needless to say, there are new products in Gongfang City nowadays. Many new things on the market are not among the categories distributed by the imperial court.
Officials have long hoped to monetize these items...the items issued by the court have always been worm-eaten and rat-eaten rags, and even the servants at home disdain to use them.
It's just that this is what is in the warehouse in Changping, and this is what the imperial tax revenue comes from.
"In the official family, I believe that once the imperial court changes its salary distribution method, the current tax system should be changed. I will then organize relevant personnel to re-define the tax system to cooperate with the reform of the imperial official system."
This involves the functions of the three envoys. Wang Anshi had originally had the idea of tax reform, and now he just took advantage of it.
…
The monarch and his ministers kept playing until late at night, one by one, and each item was summarized in a united atmosphere.
