The revival of Shu Han

Chapter 497 The Strongest Enemy ([-])

Although he is a time traveler, he has long known that the aristocratic family is the big beetle of the country and nation.But without having a detailed conversation with Pei Xiu, Zhang Hua and others, it is really impossible to understand exactly how rampant the Kanto family is.

After talking all night, Guan Yi only felt a splitting headache: This is the most troublesome thing he has encountered in traveling for nearly 20 years.

When fighting Jin and Wu, it is relatively simple: anyway, the opponent's army is there, and the opponent's capital is there.The goal is limited and clear, and you just work in that direction.

Dealing with alien races is also relatively simple: if you are not from your own race, you can use all kinds of tricks with no lower limit.Generally speaking, there must be so-called public intellectuals who want to choke, saying that you are too hurtful and so on.But it's not mainstream.

But dealing with the aristocratic family is not enough. This is not a problem that the people of the clan are not easy to deal with: Huaxia is the cruelest to its own people, so why can't it be done.

The crux of the problem is that in this era, due to the monopoly of education, the officials who govern the country can only be carried by aristocratic families.If you indiscriminately attack the aristocratic families and make all the aristocratic families stare at you, the whole country will collapse!
When Guan Yi took Yongliang before, Yizhou had a population of more than 150 million, and Yongliang only had a population of [-].So at that time, it was not a big problem for him to be a little stricter with the Yongliang family - not to mention that he also gave away a considerable part of his commercial interests.Even so, there are families who rebel.

now what?The current population of the eight Kanto states on the government roster is definitely not as good as that of the Yi, Yong, and Liang states, but in fact the economy and population of the eight Kanto states are much larger than those of the Yi, Yong, and Liang states.Although Guan Yi had already prepared for a rainy day and began to train his own officials through Longshouyuan Academy, but compared with the number of officials needed by the eight states of Kanto, this number of graduates is still too small.

Look at Dong Zhuo back then. He also realized the dangers of the family and wanted to solve the problem of the family.But after he failed to get a response from his initiative to show his favor, he used the most brutal method: killing people!As a result, the aristocratic family made false promises to Grand Master Dong in Luoyang, and then made troubles with Grand Master Dong in the local area: all kinds of policies to benefit the people were all implemented, and they were all made by Dong Zhuo!Reports of disasters and plagues are everywhere in the local area all day long, and all kinds of taxes just cannot be collected.Dong Taishi was forced to issue small money to deal with it - the hearts of the people were ruined, the reputation was ruined, and finally he died without a place to bury him.

Therefore, he must cooperate with the families of the eight states of the Kanto, and must not simply suppress.Otherwise Dong Zhuo is his role model.

However, he only needs the cooperation of the other party, and must not let the aristocratic family become the mainstream of Ji Han's regime.Because, this group has no other ability, the ability to hold back and pull outstanding people to die together is really unparalleled in ancient and modern times.

When Cao Cao started his business in the past, based on the Cao Xiahou alliance, he united some enlightened families and children of the Han clan, and it was really invincible.After he took over the four prefectures of Hebei and absorbed a large number of aristocratic families into his ruling system, he could only beat Ma Chao and Han Sui and his like.

why?Because the aristocratic families are very smart: how can we develop if you unify the country?Only in division can we have both ways.As for why Sima Yan was able to complete the unification in the historical plane.That's because the Western Jin Dynasty was already a complete aristocratic regime, and everyone was willing to live happily under such a regime.

In order to stabilize the hearts of the Kanto family, it is necessary to temporarily admit some representatives of the Kanto family into the imperial court.But it must not be accepted without principle.Otherwise, the Ji Han regime is just another Western Jin Dynasty.

In short, this group is difficult to deal with.

Of course, to deal with a powerful enemy, disintegrating it from within is the most basic method.Of course Guan Yi would do the same.

On this night, he made a promise to some representatives of the Kanto family, married the Hedong Wei family, held candle-lit talks with Pei Xiu and others, and turned a blind eye to representatives of a considerable number of other families... and so on. In order to disintegrate it.

The positions of the aristocratic families are the same, but their interests are by no means the same.Winning over some, attacking some, this is the only possible way to win.

"Hey~~ After listening to the talk of the gentlemen tonight, I realized that the management of the Kanto land is so troublesome. The gentlemen were able to maintain the basic stability of the Kanto in the past. It is really a rare talent in this world!"

"Don't dare, Da Sima is too famous."

"It's not an exaggeration, it's a fact. Well, everyone knows that Yi's grandfather came from a humble background and often had a prejudice against the family. However, in Yi's view, the family is the pillar of the country and cannot be completely denied."

"What Da Sima said is absolutely true."

"However, the unrestricted expansion of the aristocratic family will eventually lead to the collapse of the country. Doing so is actually not good for the aristocratic family. Therefore, how to protect the interests of the aristocratic family as much as possible while ensuring the stability of the country is the only way It is what politicians should consider the most.”

"Oh, Da Sima thinks so, it is the real old saying of a certain country."

"Hehehe, so, what I think is that in order to achieve this new balance, the first thing we need to do is to reform the official system."

"Change the official system?"

"Of course, everyone knows that the current official system of my big Han is based on the official system of the Han Dynasty. But time has changed, and the official system of the Han Dynasty can no longer adapt to the current situation. Therefore, some time ago, under the city of Luoyang, my official I have exchanged many letters with my Majesty, and I have roughly reached an agreement to change the official system."

Looking at the four people who were silent but breathing faster, Guan Yi smiled slightly: "Because I have been living in Yizhou for a long time, the time since I took Yongliang is too short. Therefore, the ministers of the DPRK and China are good at system planning. There are still too few people. Therefore, on this point, His Majesty Chang'an specifically confessed to this official, and asked the four of you to help me with details."

"I dare not, but since His Majesty entrusted me, I would like to hear more about it."

"Well, the reform of the official system starts from the court. Simply put, it is the system of three provinces and six ministries."

The so-called half a step ahead is genius, and one step ahead is heresy.As a time traveler, there are of course many ready-made solutions in terms of political system design.But can you implement the modern European and American democratic system and even the people's congress system in one step?

This is of course impossible.

The core authority of the Han Dynasty was the Shangshutai.Whether it is a prime minister, a great Sima, or a general, if there is no "recording the book" after the post, it can only be regarded as an honorary position.Liu Xiu, Emperor Guangwu of the Han Dynasty, already set up "Six Caos" in Shangshutai.In the Shangshutai of the Jin State, there are even six Cao Caos: "Officials, Dianzhong, Wubing, Tiancao, Duzhi, and Zuomin".It can be said that the rudiment of the six-part system has already appeared, and what Guan Yi has to do is to push it gently to get out the complete six-part system in advance.

This kind of pace is not too big, and it will not be trivial.

"My lords, these three provinces are Zhongshu, Menxia, ​​and Shangshu. Among them, Zhongshu is directly under the emperor and is responsible for drafting government orders. Menxia is responsible for reviewing government orders. Shangshu is responsible for implementation. The implementation of the situation is assessed and summarized by the door. Finally, it will be returned. Zhongshu amends, maintains or abolishes.

Under the Shangshu, there are six departments of officials, households, soldiers, criminals and criminals.The officials are promoted and dismissed, and they are the sky.The household department is responsible for the support of money and food, and for the land.The Ministry of Rites is in charge of education and sacrifices, and the spring rain moistens things, so nature is spring.The Ministry of War is in charge of conquest, which is Xia.The Ministry of Punishment will kill for autumn.The Ministry of Industry is in charge of construction. Since the organization of manpower for large-scale construction is often during the winter slack season, it is naturally a winter official. "

"Wonderful!"

"Great!"

"Da Simaguo is a heavenly man! Officials, households, soldiers, criminals, and heaven and earth are spring, summer, autumn and winter. The six books of history correspond to the cycle of heaven and earth."

"It's not just that, Da Sima. In the past, there were also Liucao in the Shangshutai of the Jin Kingdom, but their powers and responsibilities were unclear, and their names were also very strange. Such a six-part system has very clear powers and responsibilities. If it can be effectively established, it must be for the court. Execution has improved tremendously.”

"Hehehe, all of you are overly praised. This is just the general idea of ​​this officer and His Majesty. The specific details need the help of your lords. Well, for example, these six departments, what I mean, each department has four divisions, It happens to correspond to the 24 solar terms. But the responsibilities and names of these divisions require four great sages to plan for this official."

"Don't dare, Da Sima has an order, how dare we refuse to obey. I am willing to take this responsibility."

"Well, thank you all for that. Please rest assured, since you are asked to help improve this system, then, in this system, there must be a place for you."

"Thank you Da Sima, my subordinates dare not do their best!"
