There is a huge reduction. It takes three years to be greedy here, but it will continue to be greedy for three years in another place.

Fang Shiyu said: "Will the imperial court be busy every year and have no need to do anything. We should study the appointment, removal and dispatch of local officials every day."

After hesitating for a while, Fang Shiyu said: "By the way, I have gained a new understanding after reviewing the memorials in the past few days. The administrative system of the Ming Dynasty can be simplified into the emperor, six ministries, thirteen governors, government officials, and county officials, and this is the end."

"The Ming Dynasty has a vast territory, with a total area of ​​more than ten thousand miles, with a village of less than one million. The official system is obviously inappropriate and cannot help the court, but instead increases the administrative pressure on the court."

"If an administrative agency is added between the village and the county town, it is collectively called the town, the county magistrate, and then the local officials of each town and the county magistrate will elect the village chief through the village itself, and the village will assist the local town and the county magistrate to govern."

"This is the best way I thought of. One town has eight villages under its jurisdiction and ten villages under its jurisdiction. The town and the military are on the same level."

"In this case, the Ming Dynasty would have millions of villages, and the court was unable to appoint and remove millions of officials at the bottom, but if one could appoint and remove hundreds of thousands of officials at the bottom, it would be safe."

"What's more, there should be only 700,000 or 800,000 villages in the Ming Dynasty. Excluding Yunnan and Guizhou areas, there are about 600,000." Fang Shiyu came up with his own solution.

It is impossible to directly bring the imperial power to the countryside now, but the Ming Dynasty already has the ability to extend the power organization to the bottom.

The existence of town and wei can actually achieve the ultimate goal of imperial power going to the countryside. This issue cannot be discussed! There are corruption in places where there are people! If Fang Shiyu is in charge, as long as this corrupt official can really benefit the people, then let him be greedy. Anyway, no matter who the people are greedy, they are not greedy for their own, and the money they greedy in the end?

Haven't they all entered the treasury!

Add administrative institutions, towns, and guards. A larger county town has roughly 180 villages under its jurisdiction. In this way, ten or eight towns and guards will be integrated into ten or eight towns and guards, and their power will be decentralized and tightened upward. If you can work hard, there will be no government affairs accumulation and unable to deal with things.

Zhan Hui's mind was condensed and he added a lower-level authority to integrate villages in various places. He could indeed achieve the desired effect when implementing the official system.

Fang Shiyu nodded slightly and said, "What do you think?"

"It's very good, but how should the officials of this town and guard be appointed and removed?" Zhan Hui said affirmatively.

Fang Shiyu hesitated for a moment and said, "The student from the Imperial College was admitted to the town and Weishi. After that, he was a Jinshi and had no local town and Weishi's three-year training period. He was not allowed to take the exam."

"In addition, for the election of towns, guards, villages and villages under their jurisdiction, those elected must be from tribute births (scholars) to be completely smooth and promote the court's policies without pressure."

"In the end, I will ask Your Majesty for the imperial edict, and the Jinyiwei will investigate it secretly. All those who dare to embezzle, bribe, and buy election votes will be invalidated. What punishment will be imposed? Your Majesty and I are discussing!"

"I think this is the best solution at the moment. As for the fact that we really have to put the officials of the court into the village, we will wait for our descendants to do this in three hundred years!" Fang Shiyu concluded in a sentence that the lowest-level officials in the village could no longer be called officials. It is almost the same to be called minor officials. Such minor officials who are already considered inequality are really not worth wasting countless energy by the court.

It may not be possible to choose well.

The people in the village, from childhood to adulthood, naturally know more and more about each person's character and ability than the Jinyiwei, and the court, and know more thoroughly.

They chose their own, and they would not be able to rely on the court if they suffered.

"By the way, Muramasa's term of office cannot exceed three years. Re-election is not allowed, nor is it allowed to be re-election every other period. In addition, only one Muramasa is allowed to appear in a family within three generations within twenty years."

"Otherwise, this village will become a small court."

Fang Shiyu expressed the last limitation.

That's why Zhan Hui was anxious. The other Fang Shiyu, who was blowing his beard and staring at him, said: "Your Highness, the old minister thinks that this is inappropriate!"

"What are you doing? We are discussing the important matters. Just imagine, if a village in a place is occupied by a family for a long time, they will not develop into gentry, gentry, or even aristocratic families?"

In order to successfully acquire land and enter the village, Zhu Yuanzhang's gentry, gentry, and family families all became the targets of Lao Zhu's attack.

In addition, in terms of policies, courts and external propaganda, all the aristocratic families and gentry were synonymous with reactionaries.

When Zhu Yuanzhang started his family, he did not need the support of aristocratic families, nor did he need the support of aristocratic families. When he grew up, he had to govern this country.

It is natural to lift the table and prevent the family members from eating. And most importantly, Lao Zhu is not afraid of how these family members are doing. They have no army or weapons.

Facing Zhu Yuanzhang, he is just a lamb to be slaughtered.

Whatever you want to kill, play, and say, it is all Lao Zhu who can say the final word.

"About the gentry, gentry, of course, will aristocratic families appear, and six founding dukes, dukes of Wei, dukes of Xin, etc., new dukes and generals, will not all become new aristocratic families?"

Zhan Hui's words were like a thorn, piercing Fang Shiyu's heart. What a good guy, this matter is just like what he said. Fang Shiyu has no ability to refute.

When hostile aristocratic families die, new aristocratic families will also appear.

"Does Your Highness want them to be together..." Zhan Hui said in a flash of anger from somewhere and said bluntly.

Fang Shiyu smiled awkwardly and said, "What should I do to take them together? Kill them together? If that's the case, the most long-standing family in the world, Shandong Kong Mansion, will be apart!"

After saying that, this court meeting ended in some way.

Fang Shiyu returned to the study room of the East Palace in a depressed mood. Looking at the mountain of memorials, she sighed: "The most important thing, I forgot to say. Forget it, let's go next time."

Originally, Fang Shiyu planned to organize his own secretariat to help him handle some irrelevant memorials, classify them, prioritize them, and bring their suggestions.

At this time, Zhu Yunxiu walked in and looked at Fang Shiyu and said, "Master, do you really want to build a garrison institution?"

"Of course, this is the best and fastest way to solve the local power vacuum. But it is not something that can be achieved overnight."

"It will take at least three to five years to fully deploy the town and ward system in the Ming Dynasty! Moreover, the juren also has to choose and expand enrollment. When I finish these, I will go to see Lao Zhu and decide on this matter first!"

Fang Shiyu said firmly.

As long as the imperial power is fully promoted and the system of garrison is laid out, it will become history if the imperial power goes to the countryside. Although the fortune and disaster are unpredictable, it can greatly restrict the ambitious people from inciting the people and distorting the court's policies.

"By the way, you are here, is there anything wrong?" Fang Shiyu hesitated.

With a giggle, Zhu Yunxi said, "What's the matter? In two days, Zhu Yunwen, Zhu Yunxi and I will move to another palace to live in. It will be difficult to steal food at Shangshen Bureau in the future!"

Zhu Yunxiu couldn't help feeling a little disappointed. He followed Fang Shiyu. Although he had no care of his mother since childhood, at least when facing the Lu family, with Fang Shiyu protecting him, Zhu Yunxiu could commit suicide at will.

It's really a casual death.

Now, the ancestor is getting married less than a month away, so the Eastern Palace will naturally not be suitable for the brothers to continue living.

When moving to other palaces, it was also done according to the etiquette system, and Lao Zhu's imperial edict was all gone.

"Well, you don't know, Li Wan's craftsmanship is still very good. If you want to eat, come to the East Palace at any time. Can the ancestor still lack your full food?"

Fang Shiyu glanced at him and said with a smile. He really cared for descendants like Lao Zhutou.

Zhu Yunxiu said, "Master, can I ask, where are you going to send me? Where are you sealing me?"

......

In the 26th year of Hongwu, at the end of April.

In front of Fengtian Palace.

In the huge square, all officials worshiped, and the entire hall, inside and outside, corridors, and stairs were covered with red cloth.

Today is indeed a great day.

The Heavenly Thunder King Fang Shiyu, the ceremony of Concubine Enthronement.

All six departments of the court, the governor's office of the Five Army, and officials at all levels were present, and no one who could get the name was absent.

The five sedan chairs, walking in front of them, were stumbled, as if the porter carrying the sedan chair was deliberately doing it. The first time they entered from the middle gate of the Forbidden City in this life.

The other four sedans walked into the east door and the west door respectively.

After passing the Forbidden City, Jinshui Bridge, passing through the front hall, and coming to the square of Fengtian Hall

"Set down!"

The famous eunuch shouted loudly, but for a moment, a group of eunuchs surrounded him and blocked both sides of the sedan chair.

"Please ask the princess to get out of the sedan chair!"

Cao Chuanxi shouted loudly, but saw Jiaozi in the middle slowly lowering. Cao Chuanxi stepped forward and bowed to lift Jiaozi's red curtain. A beautiful figure covered with a red cloth head. He couldn't see what she looked like with the red cloth.

Taking a slow step, under the support and guidance of Cao Chuanxi, he stood in the square.

At this time, the little eunuchs on both sides shouted: "Please, Princess Wang!"

The shouts of this little eunuch were obviously not as powerful as Cao Chuanxi.

Xu Huizu, who was standing by watching the ceremony, sighed. Lan Yu leaned over and said with a silly smile: "What's wrong? I feel like I'm at a disadvantage?"

"This, hey, it's a pity!" Xu Huizu looked helpless and entangled. He looked at Zhu Yuanzhang sitting on the dragon throne, and could only turn his helplessness and dissatisfaction into a sigh.

"I'm just afraid. At that time, the Heavenly Thunder King is not good to Miao Jin, so he doesn't want anything else. Look at this attitude, he married six of them at a time, so how could he be like this!"

Xu Huizu lamented

Lan Yu said: "That's for inheritance. There are three wives and four concubines, but it can be seen that boy Fang still likes that girl Miaojin very much!"

Xu Huizu raised her glass and drank it, and said, "But she is just a concubine after all!"

"And it's Ma Quan's daughter, what's that Ma Quan? Shaoqing of Guanglu Temple is now ready. He is on par with my father. Go ahead and have a leg! He is worthy!"

Xu Huizu was quite unspoken. He hoped that Xu Miaojin could marry into the palace smoothly, but he did not want Xu Miaojin to get married in this situation.

Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand and married Zhang Lin's daughter to Fang Shiyu, the Empress Zhang who was supposed to marry into the Yan Prince's Mansion and became Zhu Gaochi.

After Fang Shiyu came to this world, because of Fang Shiyu's appearance, Xiaopang lived in Yingtian Mansion for two more years. When he returned, he didn't have the intention to consider the affair between these children and was determined to go overseas with Fang Shiyu.

When King Tianlei chose a concubine, Zhang Lin naturally had to register for his daughter. Once he succeeded, it would not be time to get promoted or make money.

At present, Zhu Gaochi is still playing with the natives in Zidinghe Mansion in Dongsheng Shenzhou. The daughter of Ma Quan, the young master of Guanglu Temple that Xu Huizu despised, is also the concubine and queen of Zhu Yunwen in the original history.

However, this woman's fate was much more difficult. After Jianwen was destroyed, he took Zhu Yunwen's child to be under house arrest. In the end, when the two children were released, he did not recognize the pig, horse, cattle and sheep, and became a madman.

He was also demoted to a commoner.

On the other side, two beauties, Li Wan, the female official of Shangchen Bureau, and Princess Qingshen, the eldest daughter of the King of Korea.

Fang Shiyu stepped forward and walked down the corridor, stood in front of Zhang, and reached out to take Zhang's palm from where Cao Chuanxi took.
