Valley Emperor

Valley Emperor

At present, the Datang Empire has a total of nine ministers on duty in the imperial study. The candidates for the nine ministers on duty in the imperial study have all formed a convention, that is, two in the military, one in the Imperial Academy, four in the cabinet, and one in the inspectorate. One Grand Court.

The cabinets are Liu Bagou, the Minister of Taxation, the Minister of Commerce, and the Minister of Personnel.

The above nine people can be roughly divided into this simple, that is Liu Bagou and the other eight heads of military and political departments, because in the past seven or eight years, the candidates for the minister on duty in the imperial study, except Liu Bagou, were all from Heads of the above-mentioned institutions.

Among the nine cabinet ministers, the president of the Grand Court has always had a very weak sense of existence, and he is basically not involved in ordinary military and political affairs. His status as the minister on duty in the imperial study is more of a symbol.

But Shi Wuyan, as the censor of Zuodu of the Inspectorate, the highest person in charge of the Inspectorate, and because the Inspectorate has the power to supervise all officials, Shi Wuyan's power is much greater than that of the president of the Grand Court.

This is also the reason why Li Xuan wants Shi Wuyan to control the Judicial Personnel Bureau. Because this institution is too important, it is impossible to appoint an ordinary senior official to take charge. Among the many ministers on duty in the imperial study room, only Shi Wuyan Wu Yan is more suitable.

With the establishment of the Judicial Personnel Bureau, the judicial reform charter also stipulates that local inspectorates and courts will be under the direct jurisdiction of the superior inspectorates and courts, and will no longer be under the dual jurisdiction of the local area as before. , prefects and other local top officials will no longer have judicial power.

The local leader has no such power, and other local officials naturally can no longer interfere.

In addition to personnel adjustments, financially, the funds of the above-mentioned three agencies will not be directly allocated with the various departments of the cabinet as in previous years, but will be independently funded for the judiciary.

Starting from next year, judicial funds will not be included in administrative funds in the fiscal expenditure budget, but will be listed separately, discussed and allocated side by side with administrative funds, army expenses, navy expenses, royal expenses, and tax expenses.

The complete separation of personnel and finance is a major measure for judicial independence. Together with hundreds of other measures, large and small, it is enough to make the judicial system completely independent from the administrative system!

Li Xuan hopes that through this, the judiciary can completely avoid the interference of the administrative department!

However, this is only Li Xuan's own wish. As for the effect of the specific implementation, we have to see it again!

This set of judicial independence system was actually created by Li Xuan himself based on many experiences in his previous life, combined with the Tang Empire itself. During the whole process, he also listened to the opinions of many ministers.

Such a system must also be flawed. For example, the judiciary is independent. After the authority has been greatly increased, will the judicial system in turn interfere with the executive branch?

Similarly, the Inspectorate of the Judiciary is to supervise all officials, but what agency should the Inspectorate let to supervise?

Although there are internal affairs agencies within the Inspectorate, whether it can effectively complete the anti-corruption behavior within the judiciary is also a question debatable.

However, no system can be perfect, and there will always be many flaws. In many things, Li Xuan can only choose the lesser of two evils, and then, like various reforms in later generations, he will cross the river by feeling the stones.

Try to find a reform road suitable for the Tang Empire as much as possible.

He knew very well that the various systems of the Tang Empire could not imitate the former Ming and other feudal dynasties, but also could not directly copy the modern state systems of later generations.

The Datang Empire must find a path that suits itself according to its own circumstances.

It doesn't matter what the road is, what matters is that it suits the circumstances of the Tang Empire.

According to the words of later generations, it should be the development of a centralized monarchy with the characteristics of the Tang Dynasty.

And many of the existing policies and reforms of the Datang Empire are actually serving this goal, and many of these policies are very unreasonable even from the perspective of later generations.

For example, the education system!

If this education system is put in later generations, it will definitely be scolded to death, because the government deliberately controls the number of people who receive secondary and higher education, which means blocking the wisdom of the people, which is contrary to universal education.

But Li Xuan insisted on doing this. The Datang education system under his leadership was to turn education into a tool, a tool to maintain the rule of the Datang Empire, not a welfare.

Therefore, in the Tang Dynasty, the cost of education is very high, especially the cost of higher education is very high, this is to control the number of people who have received higher education, this is because the Tang Dynasty needs everyone who has received higher education for their own use, Not to be left out, and then to threaten the rule of the empire.

To win over higher education groups requires costs, and they need to be given money, power and other benefits. To put it bluntly, these groups are turned into the ruling class.

And the Datang Empire is obviously impossible for too many people to become the ruling class.

The Datang Empire does not need too many ruling classes. Regardless of factors such as productivity, the most important thing is that there is no harm without comparison. The power that everyone can enjoy is not a privilege.

Therefore, only a small number of people with higher education need to become the ruling class, and the rest of the ordinary people can honestly work in the fields and become the ruled class.

Under this kind of system, in order to avoid the real talents being buried due to the cost of education, Datang's education system has implemented a large-scale scholarship program at the same time, from the most basic elementary schools to universities, there are perfect scholarships plan!

As long as you are a true genius, better than everyone else, the cost of education will not be a hindrance!

On the one hand, the high cost of education is believed to create obstacles for more people to enjoy education, while on the other hand, a large-scale scholarship program is implemented to provide free learning opportunities for poor children with outstanding academics.

This kind of system may seem strange and difficult to understand, but in fact, if you carefully analyze the later American education system, you will find that the American education system is essentially similar to that of the Tang Dynasty.

There are only two groups of students in the United States who can go to colleges and universities, children from wealthy families, and students with excellent academics!

As for ordinary people, they usually go to work part-time or go to some community college after high school. Ivy League schools have nothing to do with them.

And this kind of education system is actually similar to the education system of other countries. Even our group of elites follow the same example and do quality education.

In order to make the people accept it willingly, they promote quality education: watching American children, people go to school every day to party and shoot, how happy they are.

So ah, you children from ordinary families are too hard to read, you can play when you need to, let the books go to hell, you should let your children have a happy childhood.

Just study hard, go to a prestigious school, and after you have achieved something, you will do the dirty work of serving the country and the nation. It is enough to have children from our elite class.

You ordinary people's children can eat, drink, and have fun, and they can work in factories in the future.

After all, revolution does not distinguish between high and low, whether we are officials and bosses, or you are workers and waiters, you are all contributing to the motherland.

In addition to these, let them go to learn piano, dance, painting, music and other talents, and then preach that children can't die studying. Well, it is best to open up schools to recruit students independently in the future. What kind of social practice, talent and so on? Also included in the assessment.

Then let the children of the poor family compare with the children of the rich family in matters such as piano, dancing and other talents and social practice. If the children of ordinary people can compare with the children of the elite, it will be hell.

If we focus on the centralization of educational resources, etc., and concentrate on many aspects, I don't believe that those poor and diaosi children can break through this cage.

In recent years, this kind of thing has been publicized more, but there are still a group of idiots who believe that please allow me to observe three seconds of silence for their children!

Fortunately, there are not many of these fools. If they are all fools, they will all believe in these things.

Then there will be a very interesting situation. The children of ordinary people go out to work before finishing high school, secondary school, or even junior high school.

As for 985, 211, sorry, that's not for the children of ordinary people!

Of course, this is a hypothetical future where things get worse!

Fortunately, ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Today, most of the Chinese people are not stupid, so they have been unswervingly implementing the imperial examination policy for thousands of years, which has greatly avoided such extreme situations.

In addition, these self-proclaimed elites have only learned one trick and a half from the Americans. They have only learned to monopolize educational resources. They do not know how to use the scholarship system to recruit talents and continue to improve the strength of the ruling class. , either stupid or so arrogant that he didn't care about the people of the world.

Shameless like Americans, people are so naked in elite education, but they still don't dare to close the door completely. In addition to monopolizing educational resources, they also use various scholarships to recruit geniuses from poor families, let go of a small hole, While making ordinary people hopeful, it is also continuously replenishing the power of the ruling class.

The dynasties in the feudal era all knew how to establish a system of imperial examinations, and continuously recruited talents from the middle and lower ranks to supplement the upper ranks.

It is an old way that human society has played for thousands of years. It is a pity that a group of idiots in later generations still want to go backwards and even want to do it backwards. Playing with quality education, abolishing the imperial examinations, and playing with self-enrollment, it ended up in an extreme situation where poor families could not produce noble children.

This is simply outrageous!

Fortunately, there are still a lot of smart people in Dahuaxia, so the imperial examination system is still unswervingly implemented, adhere to the unified examination and unified recruitment, and hold the final bottom line.

Thanks for the imperial examination, let me wait for ordinary people to have a chance to climb up!
