"Teacher, do you still want to practice magic today?" The little emperor, who had classes at a fixed time every day, looked up at Nan Wukong.
"No, today I will teach you an important quality of an emperor."
"...Quality of an emperor?" The little emperor believed that being good to the people and allowing them to have more benefits was a very good quality.
"Emperors...are generally divided into four types: the wise king, the faint king, the mediocre king, and the tyrant.
These titles are all titles given to an emperor by the common people.
A wise king is an emperor who can start his own business without criticizing the people and knows how to use the emperor's skills.
A foolish emperor is an emperor who listens to treacherous ministers and favors relatives.
A mediocre king is a mediocre king who is not worthy of holding the royal palace that protects the inheritance of his ancestors.
A tyrant is an emperor who kills whomever he wants, who harshly criticizes the people and makes their lives miserable.
Let’s tell some stories about emperors…”
Following Nan Wukong's lecture, the little emperor listened intently.
Nan Wukong told the story of Li Shimin, the "Reign of Zhenguan", Hu Hai, the second emperor of Qin Dynasty, Liu Chan, Emperor Yang of Sui Dynasty... and so on. It was past one o'clock in the afternoon when the little emperor listened.
Didn't eat.
The next day, Nan Wukong told the young emperor several characteristics that a wise king should have.
On the third day, analyze these characteristics.
On the fourth day, meritocracy is the main purpose of the exercise.
On the fifth day, the imperial examination system was recommended.
On the sixth day, the little emperor went to court without giving any lectures.
The purpose of going to court was to hear about the work conditions of various local prefects. Of course, because the prefects had too much power, and in order to ensure that they were clean and honest, the prefects generally would not serve for more than five years. After five years, they would change places and continue to serve as prefects.
The empire has a huge territory, with more than 170 cities, more than 00 villages, and a total of 0 prefects. The minimum age to be a prefect is about 7 years old, and retirement occurs at the age of 50.
Enough to distribute.
The average life span of people in this world is about 60 years old, so Nan Wukong also specially proposed to add another power point in each village besides the village chief, that is Su Lao. The emperor will allocate a crutch to all old people who are 70 years old or above.
, there is always an old man named Su Lao who has the power of supervision. If the village leader is not qualified enough, Su Lao can teach the village leader a lesson with a cane.
The elders above the name can veto a village head-level cadre and can jointly report to the prefect.
This has greatly curbed local officials who have too much power, and at the same time ensured that the number of elderly people in the community would not be too large.
The young emperor assigned tasks to a group of officials, and the prefects carried out the tasks. Although it seemed that the prefects had to carry out the tasks, the official position of the feudal history officer was higher than many officials, so no imperial officials dared to give orders to these prefects. They all customized the tasks.
The little emperor screened and assigned them to the prefects.
It is not yet time for this world to completely follow the nine-level Zhongzheng system.
In the afternoon after the morning court, the little emperor wanted to learn magic with Nan Wukong.
In the days that followed, in addition to innovating various systems, there was also the selection of officials.
In addition to studying, the little emperor also had to sign various documents and was also very busy.
The same is true for Nan Wukong. When he finds a Teigu user, he has to set out to kill him and get the Teigu back, and occasionally he has to accept the ravages of Esdeath.
A few months passed like this, and there were only 5 Teigu left.
The little emperor is also slowly changing into what an emperor should look like.
What happened in a few months is actually nothing. The only pity is the retirement of General Bude.
This old general was seriously injured in a previous battle. Although he was rescued, he was left with hidden injuries. His physical strength was getting worse day by day, so he had no choice but to retire.
When Bude retired, he handed over the Guards he had led for decades to a newcomer, Tazmi.
Tazmi was appointed to protect the emperor's safety.
Esdeath became a general and changed into a new set of clothes. Although it was still a white leather jacket and skirt, it also had a cape, which made it look quite majestic.
…
"Today, we are going to learn the art of controlling the king. Originally, this was supposed to be taught by the late emperor to His Majesty, but now I can only do it for you." After the little emperor's birthday, Nan Wukong gave her a performance
Special courses.
From the perspective of people's hearts and interests, balance the officials of all parties. Maintain the balance of the game of interests of all parties, and the balance point can only be achieved by the emperor. (To be continued)
