Dragon map of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1340 Ming Palace

Yudu City.

For three consecutive days, the whole city was immersed in a lively atmosphere. The Ming Dynasty was established, and Yudu was the capital of the king.

In addition to some official celebrations, the common people organized some celebrations by themselves.

The streets and alleys are festive.

But the common people can celebrate, but they have to calm down about the court of the Ming Dynasty.

The founding of a nation is more than just a ceremony.

That represents a change in name, or even a change in the entire system. From the political structure, management system, and military system, all aspects need a change.

And it has to be done as soon as possible.

After all, when the old and new systems alternate, chaos is most likely to occur. The longer the delay, the greater the impact on the following. This kind of transition will even give people the opportunity to stop some things from coming out.

Therefore, the entire Ming court is very busy now.

Riyue Street faces northwest.

This area is currently covered.

This will be the Ming Palace.

The Ming Palace is based on a huge nine-story building. In this building, the most central position, vertically downward, is the two characters carved in stone.

Ming country.

This is not just a landmark building in Yudu City.

Or the spirit of the Ming Dynasty.

When this building stands in Yudu, it is unknown how much people's hearts have gathered for the Ming Dynasty.

In this era, many times, things that cannot be analyzed by science will be related to God. This towering building is the first time it has appeared in this era. People who know it will be shocked by the technological development of the Ming Dynasty. Whether it is the development of architecture or the development of cement and steel building materials, it is extremely frightening. This will be an opportunity to change the world.

people who don't know.

All of this will be given as a reward from heaven.

A reward from the heavens is also equal to the approval of the heavens, which made many, many people know that the gods have approved the Ming King Mujing.

People's hearts are sometimes obtained so simply.

Because of the appearance of the Ming Kingdom Building, the establishment of the Ming Kingdom was extremely smooth, and there was even no opposition effect at all. Even those aristocratic families, gentry and wealthy families held back their breath.

Of course, people’s support can be obtained in this way, but if you want to maintain it, that is the real skill. You must bring benefits to the people in order to let the people continue to support them. Otherwise, no matter what method you use, once you hurt the people, let them If you don't have enough food and sleep, you will lose popular support sooner or later.

Mujing is very clear about this point. The 5000 years of historical education has already allowed him to formulate a path for himself, an imperial path based on the hearts of the people.

………………

People's hearts are a matter of steady flow, but the appearance of this building is also indispensable.

Today this building is the center of the current Ming Kingdom. Zhaoming Pavilion, Government Affairs Hall, Privy Council, and most of the offices are currently located here.

There are nine floors up and down, and each floor can accommodate thousands of people working at the same time.

Zhaoming Pavilion is on the eighth floor.

Because the ninth floor, the highest place, belongs to King Ming's office, and only King Ming can stand on the highest place and look down on the world.

Nowadays, there is no elevator, and Mu Jing has to climb up to the ninth floor to go to work every day. Sometimes, Mu Jing feels particularly devastated. Why build such a big building with such a high height?

But this is his own fault, and he has to bear it by himself in the end. Fortunately, he is now a martial artist in the Qi training state. Even if he climbs to the ninth floor, he still can't breathe, and he is not tired or tired.

But he is usually on the eighth floor, which is where Zhaoming Pavilion is located.

At the same time, he was also the prime minister of the Ming Dynasty, Hu Zhao's prime minister Si Ya.

Since the Ming Dynasty was established, many official positions had to be recompiled. The first one to be determined was the Prime Minister of the Ming Dynasty.

The Ming Dynasty is now also in a new deal stage.

So different from the old system.

Except for the prime minister, many of the other official positions are different from the old system.

The old system was dominated by the Sangong and Jiuqing.

In the Ming Dynasty, besides the prime minister who is the head of all officials, the next step is to participate in politics. The participation in politics in Zhaoming Pavilion is still the highest official position in the Ming Dynasty.

The positions of the seven seats participating in politics are King Mujing of Ming Dynasty, Prime Minister Hu Zhao of the Kingdom of Ming Dynasty, Liu Jin who is a member of the political affairs hall of the Kingdom of Ming Dynasty, Huang Zhong, the Privy Councilor of the Privy Council, and Xi Zhicai, Qin Song, and Cai Yong.

This is the center, brain, and decision-making layer of the Ming Dynasty.

All government orders and military orders of the Ming Dynasty will be decided by these seven people, so Zhaoming Pavilion has become the most hopeful target of the entire Ming Dynasty officials.

Regardless of whether it is the civil and military ministers, they are all working hard with the goal of entering Zhaoming Pavilion.

Under the Zhaoming Pavilion, there is naturally the Zhengshitang, which governs the people's livelihood, economy, agriculture, and other affairs of all states in the world, and has the power to govern the world.

Outside the Political Affairs Hall, there is the Privy Council.

The Privy Council is in charge of the army, and there are hundreds of thousands of troops. All kinds of military affairs, even wars, are now under the unified management of the Privy Council.

The Political Affairs Hall and the Privy Council, like the two horses of the carriage of Zhaoming Pavilion, are advancing side by side.

After the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, Mujing added the Yushitai in addition to the Political Affairs Hall and the Privy Council.

The censor has been following the internal affairs since ancient times.

They don't care about government affairs or military affairs. They just stare at officials and have the power to impeach officials all over the world.

Mujing established Yushitai for the sake of good development.

People can easily get lost in the power, including Mujing. When Mujing established Zhaoming Pavilion, he also had the intention of letting Zhaoming Pavilion check and balance himself.

He himself was afraid that he would lose himself in the supreme power.

Once lost, it is difficult to find the direction. Power will make a person change from a wise king to a foolish king, from shrewd to stupid.

But with Zhaoming Pavilion, even Mujing can't do whatever he wants.

Although he usually said all day long that it didn't feel good to be supervised, he knew very well that without such supervision, he would be even more lazy and ineffective.

This is how people do things. If there is less supervision, there will naturally be less restraint. When a person's restraint becomes less and less, and he tries to indulge in freedom, then the power will be omnipotent. A knife can not only corrode oneself, but also corrode everyone around him.

The existence of Yushitai is naturally necessary.

And the first imperial censor of the censor platform was Cai Yong.

Why Cai Yong, because only this old man has the highest reputation and is also the most noble. In this kind of environment, being in a high position, more or less, will have some tails.

Even Hu Zhao, Xi Zhicai, and other smart people are unavoidable.

Want to supervise hundreds of officials.

First of all, his buttocks must be clean, Cai Yong is the most noble person, and he can restrain all officials, even Hu Zhao and Huang Zhong dare not presumptuously with him.

Therefore, if he sits in Yushitai, he will establish the position of Yushitai.

The political system of the Ming Dynasty had already come down at best. Civil and military affairs were divided into separate regimes. Between the Political Affairs Hall and the Privy Council, well water did not interfere with river water. Of course, there was an exception during wars.

Under the Political Affairs Hall, there are various ministries, the Ministry of Households, the Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Agriculture, etc., which are different from the six ministries in history. The division of labor is very careful, and there are at least a dozen ministries.

In other words, there are at least a dozen Shangshu.

The Privy Council is the major departments, the military industry department, the logistics department, the ideological and political department...

In this way, once the two parties are separated, from the perspective of the entire New Deal, the division of labor is still careful, of course, it also seems a bit general.

So next, they need to solve this problem, to make this system more streamlined, and to make this New Deal system more integrated among the people.

........................

Eighth floor.

This place is very large, Zhaoming Pavilion is in the middle, the prime minister's room is on the left and right, and the office rooms of each political party, each political party, including Mu Jing, has an office wing here.

Then there is the Literary Office of Zhaoming Pavilion, which is responsible for the meeting minutes of Zhaoming Pavilion, as well as the relationship between various political participants, and the management of file files.

Work is not very important, but it needs the most loyal people. After all, this is the core of the Ming Kingdom, and any word that goes out will affect the operation of the entire Ming Kingdom.

The interior decoration, like the ancient palace construction, is gorgeous, spacious, and antique. This is the real building that combines ancient and modern.

However, the surrounding walls are floor-to-ceiling windows against the future era, using the latest glass refined by the Academy of Science and Technology, and the surroundings are transparent glass.

Sitting in the middle, looking around, as if you are in mid-air, this feeling is very special, everyone has a sense of pride.

This is the first meeting after the founding of the country.

All seven seats participate in politics.

The person in charge of recording is Huo Yu, the number one clerk in the Ming Dynasty and the secretary of Mu Jingyu.

Huo Yu could have been released a long time ago, and he could be on his own. Even if he is the governor of a state, his qualifications are enough. Of course, his ability may not be good enough, but with his qualifications, no one will say anything.

But Huo Yu has always understood one thing, and that is self-knowledge.

He is a scholar who can't get ahead in Nanyang. He has no prospects for the first half of his life, and he has to rely on the assistance of the Huo clan in Zhongyang Town to study.

If he hadn't met Mu Jing, he wouldn't even be able to get the position of a county master in this life.

He is not a person who is good at government affairs, so he has always stayed by Mu Jing's side, working as a civil servant, and he is very good at this job.

"This is some of the policies prepared by the Ming Dynasty after the establishment of the Ming Dynasty. You all have a look. If you have an opinion, we will discuss it. If you have no opinion, we are going to go through it!"

Mu Jing waved his hand, and Huo Yu handed some proposals to everyone involved in politics.

"The rank of officials?"

"The rank of general?"

The people participating in politics looked very carefully.

Mu Jing is going to introduce the nine-rank Zhongzheng system. The rank of officials is necessary. There is no high or low, but the official position must be high or low, otherwise how can it be managed.

Historically, during the period of the Three Kingdoms, Chen Qun of the Wei State first introduced the Nine-Rank Zhongzheng System, but the scriptures were so good that the monks with crooked mouths could not help reading them. In the end, this good thing that could maintain the feudal system for 2000 years became the gentry’s inexhaustible Low-rank, the masterpiece of the humble family.

In the era of the Jin Dynasty and the Southern and Northern Dynasties, the poor family and the gentry were clearly distinguished.

In fact, Mu Jing couldn't figure out what this had to do with the Nine-Rank Zhongzheng System. It is sometimes very helpless to measure the rank of an official position and finally become a measure of a person's status.

Therefore, Mujing has to personally promote and personally check.

"Nine-Rank Zhongzheng System!"

Hu Zhao knew that Mu Jing was holding back a big move, but this plan was somewhat beyond his expectations: "Prime Minister, official residence of first rank, participation in politics, official residence of first rank!"

"General rank!" Huang Zhong's eyes were even more focused on the rank.

Mu Jing had already thought about separating military rank from military rank, but there was no suitable opportunity to introduce it, and now it happened to be a pot of stewing, and if he wanted to object, he would solve it all at once.

But Huang Zhong didn't think about objecting, and he even agreed with it.

"General!"

This is the highest military rank set by Mujing.

At present, in the entire Ming Dynasty, only Huang Zhong is the general, the only general.

As for the whole set of military ranks, Mujing took advantage of the future through the integration of ancient and modern times, and also integrated some characteristics of this era, at least not to make the soldiers feel too strange.

In addition to the general, there are also the generals, the ranks of the generals, in fact, there are not many, no, there should be none, the conquest of the world has just begun, meritorious service can only be rewarded, if it is now set at a high level , It will be embarrassing if there is no reward at that time.

………………

The meeting lasted two hours, from morning to noon, and it was quite intense. Hu Zhao was arguing with Mu Jing about the matter of rank, his face was red.

Huang Zhong also used his loud voice to yell at Mu Jing for some opinions on military rank.

But Mu Jing naturally insisted on his own opinion.

Few people can object to what he decides.

Eat at noon, halftime truce.

Mujing went downstairs.

At present, the Ming Dynasty Palace has not been completed yet, except for this Ming Dynasty Building, the rest are still under construction. As the Ming Dynasty Palace, it naturally covers a lot of land.

In addition to the Ming Dynasty Building, along the past, there are many palaces with a lot of ups and downs, all of which are like the younger brothers of the Ming Kingdom Building.

Mu Jing walked on the small stone road and took a look.

At this moment, Liu Ye came out from nowhere, and bowed his hands together: "Your subordinate Liu Ye, the right servant of the Ministry of Industry, pays homage to Your Majesty!"

"It's okay!"

Mu Jing waved his hand: "Zi Yang, how long will it take for the Ming Palace to be completed?"

He doesn't seem like a waste of money, but the Ming Kingdom needs a spiritual symbol. The existence of the Ming Kingdom is the spiritual support of the people of the Ming Kingdom, so we can't shudder.

"Except for Riyue Lake, the other buildings will be completed in February next year!" Liu Ye said.

"What about the harem?"

"The 36 halls of the harem will not be completed until January next year at the latest!"

"Hall 36?"

Mu Jing rubbed his forehead, could it be possible for Gu to marry 36 wives, one concubine and one palace, you can figure it out.

Except for Minguo Building.

The other designs are all checked by Hu Zhao, so this guy can come up with it. At this time, he will not be afraid of wasting money and people.

"The 36 halls are the smallest group of harem palaces. Since ancient times, the kings have three palaces and six gardens and 72 halls, which is in line with etiquette!" Liu Ye said softly.

"Row!"

Mu Jing waved his hand and said, "You guys can make troubles, anyway, I'm not the one paying for it!"

After defeating Liu Ye.

Mujing began to inspect the unfinished Ming Palace. In the future, this is his home after all, and he probably spent most of his time here.
