Chapter 1109 Chaotang bomb, "People's Representative Committee"!
The real rights and members of the cabinet have their own set of regulations. This rule cannot be broken, and civil officials will consciously safeguard it.
Zhu Zilong also doesn't want to come to Nanjing to go to get off work, so he will consciously avoid suspicion.
Therefore, no one among all officials will break this unspoken rule.
In fact, even if Zhu Zilong is invited to get off work in the cabinet, he will not be willing to do so. He will not compete for the position of Prime Minister of the cabinet!
It’s not for anything else, just because Zhu Zilong can see it thoroughly than others.
Yagen, the chief assistant of the cabinet, is not a good position. It seems to be glorious, but in fact it is a scam official position.
In previous dynasties, there was no cabinet chief, only the prime minister.
The prime minister is not a exclusive official term. It is a general term for the heads of governments of ancient feudal states in China. The prime minister has different titles in different dynasties.
The prime minister system occupied an important position in the ancient political system. It inherited the imperial power and accepted all officials, and was the hub of the ancient administrative system.
Under the prime minister system, the feudal state central government showed distinct dual characteristics:
As the head of state, the emperor is the general representative of the ruling class.
The prime minister is the head of the country's government and the highest chief executive.
The prime minister named "receive orders and do things". In fact, many political affairs in the country are often not discussed with the emperor, or even notified the emperor, and they make a decision and then continue to implement them according to their own intentions.
Looking at the first half of China's feudal history, the contradiction between imperial power and ministerial power runs through the whole process. In severe cases, the government's orders were changed day by day, and even failed to operate normally.
So, when the Ming Dynasty came, a perverted founding emperor, Zhu Yuanzhang.
He summarized the various stories seen in historical books and determined that the culprit that led to the demise of the Yuan Dynasty was the powerful ministers who were in power and deceived the emperor. In addition, Zhu Yuanzhang himself and the founding fathers' group, he finally abolished the prime minister system.
However, although Zhu Yuanzhang monopolized the power, the pressure on government affairs was greatly exceeded his personal capacity.
(Just let alone the energy and ability of the son, grandson and others behind it!)
So the Huagai Hall, Wuying Hall, Wenyuan Hall, and Dong Pavilion were established as their own private secretary.
As the later Ming Dynasty emperors became more and more foolish. The power of the cabinet gradually expanded and became the emperor's highest aide and decision-making body.
By the time of the Wanli period of Emperor Shenzong of the Ming Dynasty, Zhang Juzheng was the first minister of the cabinet. The power of the Ming Dynasty's cabinet reached its peak, making the six ministries of the central government almost become subordinate institutions of the cabinet.
But despite this, the power of the cabinet cannot be compared with that of the former prime minister.
The cabinet is just an accessory to imperial power, and cannot be the prime minister who is a legitimate head of government like the prime minister of the previous dynasty.
It is also restricted by the eunuchs of the Silijian Prison. Although there is the right to refute the emperor to resist the order and disrespect the emperor. However, whether it can take effect depends on whether the emperor compromises. If the emperor insists on sticking to the end, he can even force the cabinet ministers to resign.
Therefore, Zhu Zilong's original body has never spared any ranks that are neither up nor down.
-
Not only did he look down on this position, Zhu Zilong also believed that these civil servants also needed to be rectified.
But, we have to change our ways.
After all, the emperors were too immersed in sleep, so their rights were still too great, so they had to add some supervision.
Therefore, at the court meeting, Zhu Zilong's original body quickly found an opportunity to talk about this matter as the topic of his emperor clone was developed.
He stepped forward and said with a big step forward: "Emperor, power needs supervision to produce high efficiency! The chief officials of each province, prefecture, and counties have too much power. The three departments are hindering each other, resulting in inefficiency, and then the position of governor is a helpless move!"
"I think that the powers of the governor and the governor are too great and must be restricted. But this restriction is mainly reflected in finance. The fiscal budget system is good, and a people's representative committee can be added."
If Zhu Zilong's original body is thrown out, it is undoubtedly equivalent to.
He threw a big bomb into the lifeless Ming Dynasty, just like throwing fish in a pond!
It does not refer to the fiscal budget system, but to the People's Representative Committee.
The civil servants took turns to read the memorials, one more surprised.
The people in this People's Representative Committee are not officials, but ordinary people?
After your financial budget for one year is completed, you will report it to the Ministry of Revenue for review and approval. Fortunately, the excess part will be made public to people in the county and province. Then you will write a report to apply for additional budget. Sorry, you have to explain to the people's committee members.
They can only submit your additional report to the Ministry of Revenue.
It’s damn, the people can manage officials, how can this be done?
This is too funny!
For a moment, the officials' faces were full of angry expressions.
The official-oriented thoughts of China for thousands of years have penetrated into the bones of these literati.
Knowledge is power, and reading makes people gain knowledge!
Why are there many illiterate people in Chinese history since ancient times?
That is actually the hope that the officials and the emperor will be illiterate and will be convenient for managing the people!
If the common people are ignorant, they will naturally rely on the official as the authority of knowledge and authority and do not think (can be able to) think and implement it. On the contrary, "If you open but not block, you will be short and long; if you don't attack, you will be traitorous."
"If the people have personal honor, they will be inferior to the officials."
Those mud legs should be born under our control. Those who make us weak because of humiliation will be in the opposite direction. Do you dare to keep our official affairs?
Around this issue, for a moment, the entire court launched a pen and verbal punishment against Zhu Zilong's body.
It fully exposed that these ancient people value rule by man, far more than rule of law. They never regard the people as human beings, but they pretend to be benevolent and righteous every day, saying that they are parents and officials.
In this picture, Zhu Zilong's body had guessed something before throwing out this plan.
So, not angry at all.
This thing really has to be done. Otherwise, the current Ming Dynasty officials in power would not be enough for them to be greedy. Many people would let them kill them!
Zhu Zilong's original body is very clear about the consequences of doing so, but he doesn't have to worry about his current identity and situation.
These jumping clowns are not Zhang Quzheng's time now.
No matter how happy you dance, it is useless. In the end, this plan must be implemented. If the cabinet does not communicate with each other, then bypass the cabinet. If the outside officials do not agree, then replace the person to become an official.
It just so happened that the students from Shandong New Oriental College were worried about not having an official position after graduation.
During the Zhu Yuanzhang era, he was greedy for fifty taels of silver and he never saw them so crazy. After all, it was the emperor and scholars who ruled the world together for more than a hundred years after the Ming Dynasty, and they were a little overwhelmed.
It seems impossible to rely on human nature to sit upright in the face of interests.
It seems that even if you have high salaries to maintain integrity, you cannot eradicate the problem of administration. You still have to kill people. If you are afraid of those who are killed, you will be able to go smoothly.
The administration of the Ming Dynasty was indeed time to not be rectified.
