Chapter 307 Withdrawing the Minister's Order!

(An update! Please support me a lot!)

On this day, Shen Du came to Zichen Hall and presented a memorial to Emperor Chongde.The request for this memorial is to withdraw the Minister's order!

Emperor Chongde opened the memorial and looked at it, his eyes shrank, and then he closed it pretending to be calm.Withdraw the Minister's order!Shen Du dared to present such a memorial, why? !
Hearing Emperor Chongde's inquiry, Shen Du said calmly: "Shang Shu Ling has a high status, he is in charge of the world's guidelines and the officials of the court, if he loses a little bit, the whole world will suffer from it. I have heard that I can't do it." There is only one person in the world, how can the imperial court be tied to the position of Shang Shu Ling? ! The imperial court will be chaotic, and there may be chaos."

Shen Du's tone was flat, and he uttered two words that shocked Emperor Chongde: Prime Minister Quan!alone!
According to the Dading official system, Zhongshuling, Menxia Shizhong, and Shangshuling are all prime ministers.The so-called "power prime minister" and "solitary prime minister", to put it bluntly, are the powers of the prime minister of the imperial court, which exceeds any prime minister under the central official system and overrides all officials.

Emperor Chongde was no stranger to the words "quanxiang" and "duxiang". When he was young, his masters in the palace used such words many times; From time to time, these words will be taken out and said.

All because of the overthrow of the former dynasty, there will be the disaster of "power minister" and "independence minister"!
Regarding this point, historians have an unusually detailed description of "living in the pivot for a long time, the authority of the world belongs to himself, and the officials only promise to promise... Therefore, in the 20 years of Bingjun, the ruling and opposition parties looked sideways, fearing his authority."①
In the past, the misfortune of power first, and then crony disputes, how can it not be eliminated?

When Taizu founded the country, he rebuilt the three provinces of Zhongshu that were almost abolished in the previous dynasty, and gave equal importance to the three provinces, and divided the power of the three provinces equally, in order to prevent the emergence of "power ministers" and "separate ministers"!

These are the achievements of Taizu Dading, and also the lessons of the previous dynasty's destruction of the country.Emperor Chongde heard a lot, but he grew up in the year of Taiping, and he always felt that these words were so old that they would only appear in the pile of old papers, and had nothing to do with the current Gangzheng.

Now, after listening to Shen Du's words, and looking at the excessive power of Shangshu Province in these years, Emperor Chongde knew that these words were not far from him, and cold sweat broke out behind his back.

Since the "Power Prime Minister" and "Independent Prime Minister" are in danger of destroying the country, he will never let such an official appear!

Seeing his shocked expression, Shen Du knew that his words had spoken in his heart.It's about the destruction of the country, how could the emperor not be shocked?

Moreover, these words are not alarmist. As long as Shangshu Province continues to gain weight, as long as Shangshu orders a person who respects power, it will be quite normal for "power ministers" and "separate ministers" to appear.

For a long time, Shen Du and Shen Su have been thinking about how to limit the power of Shang Shuxing and Shang Shuling, and the relocation of the government office is one of the measures.But their thinking is not open enough, and it is not as Fu Tong thought: Withdrawing the Minister's Order!
Shang Shuling ranks in the second grade, Dading is just such a person, this person really cannot exist anymore!If the minister who takes over is someone with a wicked mind like Fang Jixin, it will inevitably make more officials crooked, and the court will be even more chaotic.

To take a step back, even if the person who takes over as Shang Shuling has good intentions, what about mediocre talents?Such a person is extremely human, and there will also be various problems.

That being the case, then this Shang Shuling is not needed!

Shen Du continued to speak: "Shang Shuling has had an accident with Mr. Fang for several months, and he has never dealt with the affairs of the government, but everything in the Shangshu Province is running normally. Therefore, I think that without the Shangshuling, the government will not be delayed."—— What he said has been proved by the reality of the past few months.

Since the Shangshu Province has lost the Shangshuling, it does not have much influence; but if there is a Shangshuling, there may be the disaster of "power minister" and "independent minister".Under such circumstances, everyone knows how to choose.

As the Emperor of Dading, how could Emperor Chongde not understand?But he didn't speak immediately because he thought of another word: one goes down and the other goes up.

Dading has three central provinces. If the Shangshuling is withdrawn, then only the Zhongshuling and the servants will be left as the three prime ministers.Since it is possible for Shangshuling to become "power minister" and "only minister", then Zhongshuling and the servants under the door also have the possibility.

If the Shangshu Order is withdrawn, how can the power of the Zhongshu Order and the servants be restricted?How can we guarantee that Zhongshu Ling and his servants will not become "power ministers" and "only ministers"?
He fell silent, waiting for Shen Du's answer.Since Shen Du asked to withdraw the Minister's Order, he would think of various possible situations, so how to solve this problem?
Emperor Chongde was right in thinking, of course Shen Du had thought of this hidden worry and had a way to deal with it.In Shen Du's view, the benefits of withdrawing the Minister's Order must outweigh the disadvantages. If the withdrawal is not beneficial to the Dading government, then what is the purpose of withdrawing it?
Therefore, he raised his voice and said loudly: "I implore the emperor to withdraw the order of ministers, and add left and right servants in the province of ministers, all of whom are from the second rank, and are of the same rank as Zhongshu order and servants under the door, and enter the political affairs hall; , Raise the official rank of Yushi Dafu, and add him to the political affairs hall! In this way, the three provinces and one province are mutually restrained, and the government can be governed for a long time."

Shen Du's eyes have never been so bright, and the whole person seems to be shining.Here in Zichen Palace, he finally expressed his idea about the Dading official system, which is three provinces and one official system!
He was able to come up with this official system because he was inspired by Fu Tong.Using walking as a metaphor, Fu Tong took the first step, but Shen Du followed the first step and reached the end.

The withdrawal of the Shangshu Order that Fu Tong said is a very important part, but more importantly, what to do after the Shangshu Order is withdrawn, how to ensure that the government will be better than when the Shangshu Order was in place, this is what Shen Du thinks.

After leaving Jialiyuan, he has been thinking: What about the government after the removal of the Shangshu Order?
He thought hard in the South Garden for a long time, and finally came up with a solution, which is to add left and right servants and reuse the Zhengshitang!
There used to be a political affairs hall in the imperial court, but only Zhongshuling, Menxia Shizhong, and Shangshuling were allowed to enter it, and their role was not significant in the past.But now, the political affairs hall that Shen Du wants to reuse is not just the chief officials of the three central provinces.

He wants to add people to the Zhengshitang. In addition to the officials from the three provinces, he will also join the Yushi doctor.He wants to improve the status of Yushitai and Dading's supervisory force!
(Outside the chapter: One update! Note ①: Use the words of Li Linfu in the "Old Tang Book" to describe Li Linfu, exempt from liability. The Zhengshitang system has its own history, but it seems that there are only three provinces. I think it will be more meaningful to add one , ho ho.)
