Longevity Begins with Jinyiwei

At the end of the fourth year of Zhaowu's year, in this capital, the snow seems to have never stopped. Even if it is the end of the year, the sky is still a vast expanse of white. Looking around, the whole world seems to be covered with snow.

As the New Year is approaching, almost all the ministries of the imperial court have handled the affairs within their respective powers in a similar manner, and are waiting for the holiday of Xiu Mu to have a good year.

The emperor is not stingy and tolerant. This year, the joy of unifying the world seems to stimulate the emperor. As early as after the Quanzhou victory was passed to the capital, the emperor issued a decree that all officials and soldiers in the world should be rewarded with salaries in March. Such a decree, naturally It has attracted countless officials and soldiers to be grateful and praised.

Even the new year that is coming under the years of natural disasters seems to be a little more festive.

In this seemingly leisure time, in the Palace of Heaven and Purity, the emperor convened a meeting of civil and military officials, but quietly set a policy related to Daheng's national fortune for hundreds of years, opened the Daheng Dynasty, and the imperial power went to the countryside. First shot.

The tax system was stripped away and the General Department of Taxation was established, which was directly governed by the center of the imperial court and managed vertically.

Similarly, it was also temporarily tested in Shuntian Mansion.

Only this time, it was different from the previous establishment of the school supervision yamen. After all, in the past dynasties, there were also special education officials responsible for education, but Daheng has completely refined the education system to the grassroots level.

Although it can be regarded as the most pioneering imperial power to go to the countryside, it will inevitably have a huge impact on the imperial examination and change the selection system since ancient times.

But everyone knows that in a short period of time, with the financial resources of Daheng, it is impossible to bear the financial pressure brought about by the expansion of the education system.

Even for a long time in the future, it is unlikely, and a country cannot have a suitable material selection system for several years or even more than ten years.

In this way, the appearance of the school inspector and the introduction of the new education system, although it has always caused a lot of disturbance, the impact is not as big as imagined.

Even, for many people, it can be said that they are waiting to see the joke of the emperor.

And this time, the tax department's movements are naturally not comparable to the district school inspectors' yamen. The tax department is not inferior to the previous military reforms and fiscal and taxation reforms.

With the will of the Son of Heaven, the Daheng Taxation College was established, and the first batch of taxation college students were not officials or scholars, but soldiers in the army.

The Ministry of War, the Commander-in-Chief of the Five Armies, and the General Staff jointly issued a trial proposal on retiring soldiers from the military.

Anyone who has served in the military for more than ten years or who has made great achievements can choose to submit an application for career change. After approval, after training, they can serve as officials of the same rank as the military or equivalent to the meritorious service they have made.

As soon as this decision was made, on the occasion of this new year, the taste of the new year was almost instantly washed away, the government and the opposition were turbulent, and people were impetuous.

Although Daheng established the country with Wuxun, Wuxun has already risen completely, overwhelming the literati.

But the arrogance of the literati and the vulgarity of the warrior have long since penetrated into the blood and marrow of the literati!

Even if the emperor has repeatedly raised the status of warriors, in today's Daheng world, the phenomenon of nobles and lowliness is still not uncommon.

Reading is the best way out in the eyes of the world.

In the past, the temporary emergency Wu Zhuanwen, and even the Civilian Division of the Wuyuan Academy, the temporary policy during the turbulent period brought about the estrangement and turmoil that has been difficult to suppress until now, let alone a customized martial artist to civilian.

The uproar suddenly erupted, the court and the opposition were in turmoil, and the impeachment memorials, like snowflakes, reached the emperor's table.

I don't know how many officials and scholars are running around, and there are even scholars who gathered at Meridian Gate to kneel and petition.

But in the end, the strange thing is that the emperor did not respond, and Wu Xun did not respond. Instead, the ministers of the court and various ministries came forward and forcibly suppressed the turmoil.

All of a sudden, the scolding of the ministers of the court and various ministries could be heard endlessly among the scholars!

The name of the traitor is also spreading rapidly.

But obviously, Shilin's public opinion and the turmoil in the officialdom have little impact on Daheng, which is now close to military centralization.

Everything is still moving forward steadily.

In less than ten days, nearly 1,000 soldiers and generals were selected from the Imperial Army of Beijing and the Imperial Camp, and they went directly to the newly established Daheng Taxation College for training.

Immediately afterwards, the various departments of the court, at an unprecedented speed, drafted the bylaws of the tax department.

When the detailed system of the tax department was announced, the original turmoil in the officialdom, and the voice of rebuttal to the transfer of military officers and soldiers, suddenly disappeared without a trace...

"If you don't see the rabbit, don't throw the eagle, this group of people..."

The Son of Heaven chuckled. Humans are all virtues. Advantages and disadvantages, whether the advantages outweigh the disadvantages, or the disadvantages outweigh the advantages, but they can be clearly distinguished.

Just like the establishment of the tax department and the two policies of the military personnel transfer system.

The establishment of the tax department is to increase the authority of the court, and this is a benefit.

And the system of changing careers of soldiers and soldiers in the army violated their interests, and for them, it was undoubtedly a disadvantage, that is, the quarrel was overwhelming.

But tell them that these officers and men who have been transferred from the army will be recruited into the tax department after being trained by the tax academy. The tax departments in various places will set up tax camps, and the tax camps will be organized according to the army.

The Directorate General of Taxation, on the other hand, is subordinate to the Ministry of Households and the court!

The noisy sound disappeared immediately.

The reason is, of course, very simple.

All prefectures and counties have set up tax capture camps, and tax capture camps are organized according to the army.

That is to say, although it is called a tax capture camp and it is staffed by officials, it is actually an army.

It represents the military power that the civil officials have always wanted to reach out, but couldn't reach it!

A county has one tax department, one tax department, and one tax capture camp.

In the whole world, there are more than 2,000 counties, hundreds of prefectures, at least thousands of taxation camps, such a huge military power, and it is still a military power sent to the door. To these civil servants, it is undoubtedly very clear.

"Tax and Education..."

The emperor pondered in his heart, taxation and education, these two are too important for a country. They should be separated out and become an institutional system, directly under the central center. After tinkering and repairing in the future, it can be said that the most important step of the imperial power going to the countryside has been completed. important step.

The situation has been opened, and the rest is to make steady progress. The stripping of the rights of the grassroots county government can also stop here.

Next, on the contrary, it is necessary to strengthen the rights of the grass-roots county government.

For example, increasing the number of officials at the county level, phasing out the existence of officials, and continuing to suppress local forces.

For example, the villages and towns below the county level, UUkanshu www.uukanshu.com, are included in the ruling system to increase Daheng's control over the world.

For example, by cooperating with the expansion of the education system and the adjustment of the imperial examination system, a talent selection system belonging to Daheng has been created.

like…

Of course, all of this has to follow Daheng's fiscal and taxation power, to be precise, it is within its capabilities.

Unexpected wealth is rootless water after all, and in the end, Daheng's fiscal and tax revenue must be used to support it all.

And when all these adjustments are completed, the new order of Daheng led by his Emperor Zhaowu can be regarded as a true finalization.

And this process is bound to be very long.

The focus of governance in the next few years, and even more than a decade, will be here.
