Valley Emperor

When Li Xuan first arrived in this era, he had no ambitions. What he wanted most at the time was to escape from Huangzhu Mountain and live incognito for the rest of his life. At that time, he even hoped that he would go to that place in the south of the Yangtze River and have a look. The scenery on both sides of the Qinhuai River, experience the gentleness of Qinhuai women, well, it is best to be free.

But as time passed, he found that his original idea was nothing more than a dream, it was not easy to escape, and it was even more difficult to escape the government's pursuit after escaping.

Later, because of Liu Bagou, Fang Dongquan and the others, although they did not let Li Xuan go, they were treated well in all aspects, and they did not treat Li Xuan badly. Over time, he felt that being an emperor in this valley was not bad.

At least in this small valley, he is the supreme emperor. A lot of people tout him every day as a sage of the ages. After a long time, he is confident!

After a long time in this state, Li Xuan slowly accepted the fact that he was the emperor of the mountain valley. When he used to call himself "I", he would not feel the slightest bit of tongue-tied. Now you ask him to use 'I' and 'I'. He is not used to self-proclaimed things like that.

Now that he has accepted the fate of being an emperor, Li Xuan naturally needs to consider how to build the Tang Dynasty into a real dynasty, so that the emperor can sit more firmly, so as not to be defeated by the Ming army and be pulled to the guillotine.

Previously, training the Guards and supporting Fang Dongquan and the others to attack Jiguan Mountain, Heihu Village, and Huanggui Mountain were some of his attempts.

But the reason why these attempts are called attempts is that they have little impact and cannot fundamentally change the nature of the Tang Dynasty's play.

Even if the guards he trained could fight again, in their own minds, or in the minds of the Ming soldiers outside, they were still a group of bandits.

Even if the people under the rule swelled to the current number of more than 2,000 people, each of the more than 2,000 people regarded themselves as bandits, and they did not have the consciousness of being an ordinary citizen of the Tang Dynasty.

And it is absolutely impossible for such a Tang Dynasty to survive for long. Even if it can block the next Ming army's attack, it is absolutely impossible to defeat the Ming army again and again.

And if the Tang Dynasty was defeated once, it would definitely die.

Therefore, the reform of the military system is necessary, and to implement the reform of the military system, Li Xuan must first promote the reform of the official system. Only with a clear hierarchy of civil and military officials can the military command system be established. After the military has a command system, it can Call it an army.

Today's Master of the Tang Dynasty is nothing more than a few bandit leaders leading a group of bandits to fight, and there is no scientific research on the command system at all.

There are many reasons why Li Xuan must establish a complete official system!

When Li Xuan talked about the reform of the official system in the courtroom, Liu Bagou, Qian Mengjiu, and Wang Wenhua were all surprised. They obviously didn't expect Li Xuan to suddenly say this.

On the contrary, Fang Dongquan, Chen Tufu and the others are somewhat indifferent. In their opinion, the reform of the official system is nothing more than changing everyone's official names, which has little actual impact.

But in the eyes of Liu Bagou and the others who came from scholars, the meaning is very different.

Immediately Liu Bagou stood up and said, "Your Majesty's words are very true, I was in a hurry when the Tang Dynasty was first established, and I failed to establish a complete official system. It's settled!"

Wang Wenhua also said: "His Majesty is indeed a talent of the sky, a holy monarch who has been out for thousands of years, and his eyes are like a torch to see the inadequacy of our Tang Dynasty today!"

Qian Mengjiu looked at Wang Wenhua with a hint of contempt in his eyes. This Wang Wenhua knew how to flatter, but he didn't actually say anything.

Immediately he said, "I don't know what kind of official position Your Majesty wants to use?"

Li Xuandao: "Looking at all the dynasties, the official system is no longer suitable for me in the Tang Dynasty. The ancient three provinces and six departments have long since passed away, and there are also many deficiencies in the six departments of the false and bright. I have read the texts of Zhou Li, and I intend to establish nine!"

Hearing Li Xuan's words, Fang Dongquan and the others were still stunned. They didn't know big characters. They knew what the official system was. Although they brought their ears at this time, they were actually almost deaf.

But it doesn't matter if you don't understand the details. In Li Xuan's words, there are a few words that you can still understand, such as the 'six' in the sixth and the 'nine' in the nine.

Butcher Chen immediately said loudly: "Your Majesty is wise, nine is better than six, and the official system of our Tang Dynasty is naturally better than that of hypocrisy!"

Fang Dongquan, who was beside him, also said: "Yes, there are six phony sects, and we in the Tang Dynasty will have nine sects, three more than them. Let's see how arrogant that sham will be in the future!"

Huang Xueren and Cai Erhu also followed suit, saying that His Majesty is wise, there are so many nine chapters, but you ask them why nine is better than six?

They have one reason: nine to six!

The three civil servants next to him had black faces, and even Li Xuan, who was sitting on the dragon chair and listening to their touts, was embarrassed.

The pros and cons of this official system can still be compared by numbers?

At this time, Liu Bagou said, "Your Majesty, I don't know what the nine-part system is?"

Li Xuan took out the official regulations that he had prepared for a long time and said: "The nine departments are expanded from the six departments. In addition to the old Ministry of Personnel, the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Households, the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of War, and the Ministry of Punishment, the Ministry of Agriculture, The three departments of taxation and inspection.”

"The Ministry of History is in charge of the appointment and removal, assessment, promotion, and transfer of officials~www.wuxiax.com~The Ministry of Rites is in charge of the five rituals, imperial examinations, education, and foreign exchanges."

"The Ministry of Household is in charge of household registration and civil affairs."

"The Ministry of Industry is in charge of engineering construction and equipment construction."

"The Ministry of Justice is in charge of judicial affairs."

"The Ministry of Agriculture is in charge of agriculture, forestry and mining."

"The tax department is in charge of taxes and salaries."

"The police department is in charge of the pickets, and they impeach illegal things."

"Each department has one minister, two left and right servants, and each department has various divisions, including the middle class."

Li Xuan briefly explained the system of the Nine Departments, and when he said it simply, the three scholars, Liu Bagou, Wang Wenhua, and Qian Mengjiu, understood immediately. Compared with the previous six volumes, these nine volumes are the largest among them. The change is that the Ministry of Household is divided into three parts, from the major department in charge of all the land, agricultural business, taxation, salaries and other affairs in the world, to the department only responsible for the internal affairs of the people, and the taxation is listed separately as the Ministry of Taxation, and the Ministry of Agriculture. The merchants were also separated out as the Ministry of Agriculture.

As for the police department, although this thing is missing a word, but as soon as I heard it, I knew it was the Metropolitan Police Department.

The nine-part system that Li Xuan came up with is based on the six-part system of the Ming Dynasty and the cabinet system of later modern countries. It will not be too shocking, and there are improvements, not to mention how many, but it is definitely no problem to use it first.

This nine-part system is simply a six-part system with the characteristics of the Tang Dynasty, but only three more parts are added. As for why the three more parts are added, Li Xuan naturally has his own considerations, but he is not right now. Liu Bagou and the others said why.

In addition, Chen Tufu and the others said it well. Since there are six books of hypocrisy, their Tang Dynasty naturally has more than their six, and one or two more is not enough, but three more!

Therefore, the nine parts are just right!
