Lin Ze wore a flat crown on his head and a black gold silk dragon suit, sitting on the main seat.
On the steps, three feet in front of and to the right of Lin Ze, sat Zhuang Zhou in a blue robe.
There were several seats under the stage, and Chen Ping sat at the front.
Wu Fan, Zhang Han and other chief officers and adjutants of the six divisions of the Western Qin Dynasty came next.
Everyone came together and there was no empty seat.
Lin Ze waved his hand and closed the palace door, and said straight to the point: "The Western Qin Dynasty was only established for a few months, and the six tribunals were established for less than a month. I summoned all the ministers here today, but it is for the purpose of establishing the system."
"All the ministers present here are all heroes of the moment. They fully understand the importance of a sound system for the new dynasty, so I won't go into details one by one."
After saying this, Lin Ze's profound eyes scanned the faces of everyone in the hall one by one.
Lin Ze glanced at him, and everyone lowered their heads subconsciously and remained silent, as if they didn't dare to look at him.
When Lin Ze saw this, his mood was indescribably complicated. Ever since he established the Western Qin Dynasty and claimed to be the ruler of the country, the status of monarch and ministers was like a gap between him and a group of old subordinates.
Chen Ping no longer calls him uncle, and Han Xin no longer calls him military adviser. There is inevitably a sense of unfamiliarity between them.
Lin Ze sighed secretly and said expressionlessly: "Since the ministers have no other ideas, the court meeting will begin here."
After hearing this, Chen Ping and others stood up, bowed and said, "I would like to ask the Lord to give me your instructions."
Lin Ze sighed again, put aside his distracting thoughts, calmed down, pointed at Zhuang Zhou and said: "As we all know, Gu is now worshiping Taoist Saint as his teacher. Zhuang Zhou, the Taoist sub-sage, is also Gu's senior brother."
Chen Ping and others looked at each other and said in unison: "I have seen Yasheng Zhuang Zhou."
Zhuang Zhou hurriedly returned the greeting and said: "I am a poor man and I am polite."
After the two parties met, Lin Ze spoke again: "A few days ago, my master, the Taoist Saint, heard that Gu Chu had determined the land of Yan and Zhao. He thought that it would be difficult for Gu Chu to maintain the Western Qin Dynasty, so he sent more than a thousand elite disciples to help Gu."
"After careful consideration, I have concluded that the disciples of the Taoist Palace are outstanding in Taoism, but their ability in government affairs is not obvious, so they are not suitable to serve as officials in the court."
"Now that the land of Yanzhao has been decided, bandits are running rampant and poisoning the people. We are planning to set up a supervisory department, which is independent from the six departments and will be filled with disciples of the Dao Palace to clean up local bandits and bullies. What do you think?"
The rest of the people had no objections, but Wu Fan stood out and bowed and said: "To the Lord, I believe that the powers and responsibilities of the Supervision Department overlap with the Ministry of Punishment. If there is a case in which both parties are involved, who should be put in charge of it?"
?”
Lin Ze glanced at Wu Fan and said in a deep voice: "Whoever takes over first will be in charge. The other party is not allowed to interfere, but has the right to supervise. If there are different opinions on the outcome of the case, it should be submitted to the Prime Minister for decision. If the case involved is serious, someone will make the decision.
."
Wu Fan bowed his hands and said, "I would like to thank the Lord for clarifying my doubts."
After saying this, Wu Fan wanted to return.
"Wait a minute," Lin Ze stopped Wu Fan and said slowly: "Since the powers and responsibilities of the Ministry of Punishment have been mentioned, let's take this opportunity to explain the powers and responsibilities clearly. The Prime Minister will make a note of it with the Ministry of Officials. This will be the basis for future assessments of the Ministry of Punishment.
The official’s basis for determining whether the body’s location is intact.”
Chen Ping and Sikong Ma looked at each other and said in unison: "Please give me your instructions, Lord."
Lin Ze stretched out his hand and pressed down, and said in a deep voice: "According to Gu's idea, the Criminal Department will be divided into divisions. The Criminal Law Department will formulate laws, the Criminal Law Department will review criminal cases in various places, the Pursuit Department will be responsible for arresting criminals, and the Punishment Department will be responsible for arresting criminals.
Handle cases involving officials of the Western Qin Dynasty..."
"Each department has different powers and responsibilities, and assessments are different. If the law is incomplete, the Criminal Law Department will be held accountable. If an unjust case occurs, the Criminal Law Department will be held accountable. If the criminal cannot be brought to justice in time, the Pursuit Department will be held accountable. If an official knows the law and breaks the law, he will be punished.
If the Secretary fails to notice and fails to deal with it in time, he will be held accountable to the Secretary of Town and State."
"Wu Shangshu, I am so harsh, do you have any complaints?"
Institutionalization usually represents decentralization.
Decentralization of power can greatly improve work efficiency, but on the other hand, it can easily breed corruption.
Since the Western Qin Dynasty was Lin Ze's chance to achieve enlightenment, no matter what, Lin Ze had to try his best to make the politics as clear as possible and the country prosperous and the people safe before he could win his destiny.
Therefore, an effective supervision mechanism must be established by Lin Ze and run smoothly through his prestige.
Wu Fan replied decisively without thinking: "The king is wise and powerful, I admire him very much and I don't dare to complain at all."
Lin Ze nodded slightly: "That's very good. Dao Palace disciples don't understand the names of punishments and have difficulty distinguishing right from wrong. They need to train for three months to half a year. Only after passing the assessment can they join the Supervision Department and take on the important task of supervising the world."
"Wu Fan, since you are the chief officer of the Punishment Department, the training of the Dao Palace disciples is left to you. Remember, those who cannot pass the assessment will not be allowed to leave the training camp."
When Wu Fan heard this, he was startled at first, and then a warm feeling surged in his heart. On the surface, the king set up the Supervision Department to supervise each other with the Ministry of Punishment, but in fact, he asked him to train the personnel of the Supervision Department. He really had good intentions.
He only needs to take over this task, but among all the Taoist disciples who serve in the Supervision Department, who doesn't owe him a favor?
I'm not a teacher, and I don't dare to be one, but it's indispensable to call me an instructor, right?
In the same way, as long as Wu Fan is in the Ministry of Justice, the Supervision Department will not be a threat to the Ministry of Justice.
Of course Lin Ze had thought about this, but he didn't really care about it. In comparison, it was more important to settle these Dao Palace disciples.
As for the Criminal Department and the Supervision Department, who is older and who is younger is a trivial matter. After all, if someone really dares to commit crimes, Lin Ze will not care about who is older and who is younger. He will kill them all.
Seeing Wu Fanfa stunned, Lin Ze said with an unhappy look on his face: "What, you're not happy?"
Wu Fan came back to his senses, quickly bowed deeply and said: "I thank the Lord for his grace."
Lin Ze waved his hand, turned to Chen Ping and Sikong Ma, and asked, "Do you understand, Prime Minister and the officials?"
Sikong Ma glanced at Chen Ping and replied: "I have borne this in mind. Please rest assured, Lord."
After finalizing the arrangements for the disciples of the Dao Palace and the assessment of the Ministry of Punishment, Lin Ze continued: "The Ministry of Personnel must provide clear and clear basis for the appointment and dismissal of officials in terms of rewards and punishments. If there are any untruths, the person in charge will be removed from the position and permanently
Not accepted."
"If someone accepts bribes and falsely reports his achievements, he should be sent to the relevant department for investigation and punishment, and no mercy will be given. The Ministry of Personnel and the Ministry of Punishment will encourage each other."
"In addition to presiding over sacrifices, the Ministry of Rites also has a Cleaning Department, which is responsible for selecting and recruiting officials."
"A major exam is held every three years. The Ministry of Rites formulates the test questions and the orphans choose which ones to test. The preliminary assessment results are evaluated by the Ministry of Rites, and the final score is decided by the orphans."
"..."
According to the responsibilities of the six departments that he knew in his previous life, combined with the separation of powers, Lin Ze explained the scope of responsibility of the six departments and the key points of assessment in front of everyone.
At first, everyone just listened attentively and remembered secretly.
When Lin Ze talked too much, he started taking notes on paper, fearing that he would miss something and inadvertently cause trouble for himself in the future.
Seeing that everyone had gained something, Lin Ze couldn't help but feel a little satisfied.
The cohesion brought by a sound system is far greater than that of a loose system. This is the foundation for his future hegemony.
Just when Lin Ze was about to give the order to retreat from the court, his whole body was shaken subconsciously. The seed of the great road that was placed in the way of heaven clearly sensed that the way of heaven suddenly set off a huge wave.
Lin Ze couldn't help but turn his eyes to Zhuang Zhou, who knew that Zhuang Zhou was even more excited than him. He stood up with a "swish", his body flashed, and his whole body passed through afterimages, left the hall, and disappeared in the vast sky.
.
Lin Ze's mind was shaken, and he intuitively felt that something bad had happened, so he hurriedly said: "If you have something urgent, go and come back. The ministers can discuss the system that I just mentioned. If anyone has good opinions, you can put them forward.
I will not hesitate to reward you."
After saying this, Lin Ze swayed and rushed in the direction Zhuang Zhou left.
There was a voice in the dark telling him that something big had definitely happened, and it was related to him.
In an instant, Lin Ze found Zhuang Zhou with a solemn expression high in the sky.
Zhuang Zhou watched Lin Ze chasing after him, and without waiting for Lin Ze to ask, he took the initiative and said: "Brother, I know what you want to ask. A major event that shocked the world has indeed happened."
"Emperor Qin, we are in the third realm of heaven and humanity."
Lin Ze's expression suddenly changed and he whispered: "The wind is blowing."
