In this way, we can temporarily use such a coalition to alleviate the conflicts and unnecessary internal strife within the Han Dynasty caused by the conflicts between civil, military and Yushitai.
Such an organization established during wartime suddenly reminded Li Xingchen of the sticky stick department in later generations. Of course, sticky stick department also had a more famous name, the Military Aircraft Department.
This seems to be no different from the military aircraft department.
Li Xingchen also did not expect that due to a yin and yang mistake, the Military Aircraft Department would be brought up in this form.
Historically, the birth of the Military Aircraft Department meant that China's centralized power system had reached its peak. The emperor was no longer the Son of Heaven, but was downright God.
At this stage, it is certainly important to strengthen centralization. It can even be said that what Li Xingchen has been doing for a long time is to strengthen centralization. From the perspective of the evolution of the political system from the Qin and Han Dynasties to the Three Kingdoms and Two Jin Dynasties, the centralized system of autocratic rule has played a vital role in the unification and expansion of China.
It has incomparable contributions. If it were not for the centralized system, it is even difficult to imagine how the two huge dynasties of Qin and Han, which make future generations proud, would be in disarray. Just by looking at the situation of the Southern and Northern Dynasties, you can detect a clue.
It was the centralized system that combined the entire nation into a whole. From then on, the term Han people began to be used in the world, and gradually came to refer to a nation, or even a country.
However, Li Xingchen did not dare to get it right in one step. Facts have proved that in this era of slash-and-burn cultivation, if you want to do everything "in one step", it is no different from seeking death. The imperial examination system is a talent selection system that has completely killed the aristocratic families.
It was also after the continuous improvement of the Sui and Tang dynasties, and the soft or hard rule and guidance of several generations of monarchs, that it became a system that has influenced China for thousands of years and consolidated centralized rule. This is why Li Xingchen dare not go too far now.
quick.
Now King Gu Ye directly put forward a theory similar to that of the Military Aircraft Department, which made Li Xingchen have to be cautious. Before he was completely sure that the aristocratic families in the court would not resist the policy of weakening the aristocratic families just now,
Li Xingchen was not inclined to take the initiative to take the next step of strengthening centralization of power when he wanted to do so.
But this time it was proposed by King Gu Ye on his own initiative, which naturally represented the opinions of a sufficient number of Jiangnan nobles. Otherwise, King Gu Ye would not have really left the rest of the aristocratic families alone and just immersed himself in the work with the Gu family of Wu County.
Go forward.
What's more, regarding the national policy formulated by the Han Dynasty this time, it seems that this choice is destined. After all, this will be the first time that the Han Dynasty faces the test of a national war. In comparison, the previous Northwest War was only partial or even
It was just a small fight around a few cities, not to mention the Battle of Nanxiang and so on.
If you want to coordinate such a decisive battle, the current situation in the Han Dynasty is obviously insufficient, and the cliques and mutual checks and balances between various departments will only make many things in vain, and naturally there is no way to proceed.
It was such a huge war that even the entire country had to be mobilized.
No one can underestimate Yang Jian's power, not only because Yang Jian himself is recognized as a first-class hero, but also because the land of Guanzhong has been the center of the entire imperial power since the Qin and Han Dynasties, and the four fortresses are the most prosperous, so
The potential that Yuanyuan can burst out is not what it appears on the surface, so there are actually not many opportunities left for the big man. It must be a fatal blow, and it must even be able to deal with and attack in a short time.
There may be a conflict between Yu Wenxian and Yu Wenxian.
Therefore, a department that can mediate, coordinate, and have absolute authority is naturally indispensable.
"I think this is a good thing, and all the ministries have selected personnel. Taiwei Mansion, Menxia Province, Zhongshu Province and Shangshu Province have also dispatched personnel." Li Xingchen said in a deep voice, "Now that the East Palace is free, I will temporarily use the East Palace as a place for research.
I will personally take charge of this matter."
Li Xingchen immediately decided to put this newly formed temporary organization under his overall jurisdiction. Firstly, this matter was of great importance, and it was impossible for Li Xingchen to really delegate power. Secondly, Li Xingchen did not want a permanent military aircraft office to appear in the Han Dynasty at this stage.
In the hall, after all, all matters are just beginning now. What the Han Dynasty needs is change and innovation, and the emergence of the Military Aircraft Department will cause the power of the court to be too concentrated in the hands of one or a few people. Although it has achieved the purpose of centralization
, but it also limits the progress of ideas and systems to a great extent.
Especially given the current situation of the Han Dynasty, the construction of its political system and administrative system is actually not perfect and can only be considered half-baked, and there is no need to be anxious about this kind of thing.
Everyone in the court also breathed a sigh of relief. Li Xingchen directly took over the central management and dispatching task. At least it meant that everyone no longer had to worry about someone else getting this position. After all, this was equivalent to being independent from the court.
A small court was established, somewhat similar to the outer court and the inner court in the Western Han Dynasty. For the officials in the current court, whoever presides over the inner court is equivalent to having a status similar to that of the prime minister. Unless Li Xingchen comes forward, everyone will definitely
You have to fight hard to grab this position.
And King Gu Ye breathed a sigh of relief. Based on his understanding of Li Xingchen, he could have predicted such a result. For him, as the prime minister, His Majesty the Emperor shifted his attention more to foreign campaigns.
Among them, it is naturally equivalent to weakening Li Xingchen's attention to domestic political affairs in disguise. In this way, even if the prime minister will not gain greater power, he will not be under greater pressure.
Of course, what King Gu Ye did was a bit of a gamble. Once Li Xingchen chose someone else, such as Pei Zilie, to preside over such a newly established organization, it would be like establishing a new inner court. Historically, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was
By establishing the inner court and the outer court, the power in the hands of the prime minister is weakened. Those who are really in charge of the government and the government's policies are actually more generals such as Sima in the inner court, and the prime minister is actually just a policy implementer. If
If Li Xingchen did the same thing, then King Gu Ye would really lose more than the gain, and it should even be said that he would get burned.
However, King Gu Ye asked himself what Li Xingchen really wanted to do, and naturally knew that he could not achieve centralization by re-establishing the inner court and the outer court. After all, the lessons learned from the Western Han Dynasty were there, and the administrative methods of the inner court and the outer court were obvious.
It only allowed more powerful ministers to appear in the court, but the emperor's power was still suppressed to a great extent. If Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty had not been a truly heroic leader, he would not have been able to control such a court system. History has proved that the decline of the Western Han Dynasty
It has nothing to do with this system.
Therefore, Li Xingchen will naturally not follow this old path.
