At least the internal government has retained the right to cultivate talents in the short term. As for losing the right to directly recruit talents, that is not important.
Recruiting talents directly requires training, and the assessment and selection process itself is prone to problems. It is inevitable that there will be people who cheat, so the internal government has always been worried about the hidden dangers. Now it is directly eliminating this hidden danger with the help of negotiations, and
It is naturally a good thing not to offend the officials below.
At the same time, of course, it is impossible for Li Xingchen to really cut off everything in the inner government with one stroke. Otherwise, even if Lechang does not cause trouble for himself, the officials of the inner government below will definitely have objections. After all, the inner government has worked hard over the years, and everyone will also
They all see it. Now that the imperial court thinks that the power of the inner government is too great, it would be too much to weaken the entire inner government. When the time comes, the people below will be unstable, which will not be easy to solve.
If the imperial court needs to move forward, it naturally needs a steady stream of talent. And to have talent, the court must first have credibility. Naturally, it cannot do things like killing donkeys. Therefore, Li Xingchen weakened the inner government this time.
It is carried out based on the principle of mobilizing subordinates of various departments without mobilizing subordinate personnel.
However, it is obvious from the perspective of the outer court that this does not fundamentally solve the problems of the inner government. Even because the inner government and the outer court must be responsible for systems such as academies and hospitals at the same time, it actually reduces the original financial pressure of the inner government and requires
Knowing that these two are out-and-out big money devourers, it gives the inner government more money to develop in other directions, and naturally gives the inner government the opportunity to continue to grow in other directions.
However, this time the Outer Court was able to exert pressure on His Majesty and even deliberately create conflicts between the Outer Court and the Inner Government, thereby forcing the Inner Government to take the initiative to make concessions and bring these two problems to the Inner Government.
It's very troublesome, but in any case, the most important department of the inner government is ceded, but what about next time?
Can the outer court repeat its old tricks?
Will His Majesty feel that the Outer Court has gone too far because of this, and in turn suppress the Outer Court?
Therefore, the best choice for the foreign court is to obtain as many benefits as possible from this negotiation.
Of course, this kind of bargaining is not done by the big guys. Soon officials from various departments began to argue with each other. The main body surrounding them was naturally the specific rules and regulations of the two departments, as well as salary rewards, etc. You came and I went back and forth.
Not giving in to each other.
Li Xingchen sat on it and watched these officials almost rolling up their sleeves and starting to fight. He couldn't help but laugh in his heart. I'm afraid no one would have thought that what these guys were fighting for was not how much less they should get, but how much more they should get.
I'm afraid it's rare to see these tough guys, especially those in the household department, so actively clamoring for more money.
Shen Jungao, who had stirred up the atmosphere at the scene at the beginning, was sitting in his seat and did not speak anymore. He seemed to have thought of something and couldn't help but glance up at Li Xingchen who was sitting on the dragon chair.
From beginning to end, His Majesty did not seem to say a few words, but the development trajectory of the entire matter seemed to have never been out of His Majesty's control. It could even be said that it was gradually getting closer to His Majesty's thoughts. In the end, neither the inner government nor the outer court followed.
Enough benefits have been gained from this incident, but the communication and cooperation between the two parties are destined to be encrypted because of this incident.
In other words, due to the independence of hospitals, academies, etc., the inner government and the outer court will have several more platforms for mutual cooperation and communication than before. In order to ensure the smooth operation of these platforms, especially to avoid these platforms
Internal conflicts arose due to the conflict between the above speakers. Everyone was shouting and shouting. In the end, they could only sit down and discuss calmly whether the other party's views were correct, instead of simply criticizing each other directly in the court.
The inner government and the outer court seemed to be two opposing parts in the eyes of many people before.
After all, when the Imperial Household was established, many people thought that His Majesty acted in this way because he wanted to support a force that could confront the Shangshu Province, which had almost monopoly power at that time.
But now Shen Jungao discovered that things were not as simple as everyone imagined. His Majesty's real intention should be to gradually make these things done by the inner government be accepted by the outer court, that is, by the traditional mainstream thinking.
Let’s take a look at what the inner government does, including medical care, education, charity, media, etc. These often involve women working outside the home. In any previous dynasty, this was simply unimaginable.
After all, receiving education and seeing a doctor were the privileges of nobles in many dynasties. Otherwise, how can we reflect wealth and dignity?
If Li Xingchen proposed from the beginning that the foreign court should be responsible for these matters, which department among the six departments would have the courage to risk the world's disapproval? I am afraid that even Xu Ling, who was already the leader in the field of scholars at that time, would not dare to do so.
Do you agree to do this? Not to mention the other six ministers. After all, this means that they are likely to be criticized and criticized by many so-called "defenders". At the same time, they will also have to accept the consequences brought by many nobles and remaining aristocratic families.
Oppression is something even many ordinary people don’t understand.
Therefore, Li Xingchen simply started from the harem. From the charity hall at the beginning to the hospitals and academies later, step by step, the people and the court officials naturally accepted these new things.
The existence of things, after all, can all be based on the kindness and love of the queen and the concubines in the harem. No one can criticize this, and many people even praise it.
What is "Muyi Tianxia"? Everything the queen presides over in the palace today is good. This is called "Muyi Tianxia". In contrast, the previous queens talked about being nice, and a few of them were really like
The spring breeze and rain dew nourish all things in the world?
Subtly, from slow to extreme, by the time those who may be old-fashioned come to their senses, these institutions established by the inner government are closely related to them and their families, and they can't say anything even if they want to.
Well, what if I cursed here and the pharmacy over there cut off my supply of medicines after hearing this? Then wouldn’t everyone in my family hate me to death?
Now that the whole society has felt the benefits brought by these institutions established by the inner government, naturally there is no need for the inner government to fumble forward and move forward step by step as hard as before.
Hospitals, academies, etc. are also developing faster and faster, and have become one of the main factors to judge whether a place is developed. Many state capitals cannot retain talents because they do not have hospitals and academies. In desperation, they even have prefects.
