Wushuang Wudi of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 98
"May I ask Marquis Wen, what's the difference between the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Military Affairs?" Yang Zan asked, a little surprised.

"The military department is in charge of the recruitment of soldiers, daily training, and the logistics of the army's expedition, which involves the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Civil Affairs; the Ministry of War is in charge of the mobilization of the army and the appointment of generals to fight!" Lu Bu explained.

"Then choose the military department and be willing to take up the post of military secretary." Yang Zan said quickly when he heard it.

"Very good! This Marquis will send you an assistant, Cao Cao and Zheng Yu of the General's Mansion, and you will arrange the details! As for the Secretary of the Ministry of War, there is currently no suitable candidate, and I will take the concurrent post first!" Lu Bu said, the original authority of the General's Mansion Or transferred to his hands.

"Finally, it is the Ministry of Officials! It is in charge of the selection, assessment, promotion, transfer, appointment and dismissal of officials, but it is only limited to officials below the rank of Qianshi. In simple terms, it is officials and officials at the county magistrate level and below! The Minister of the Ministry of Officials, Xun You, the prime minister of the imperial censor!" Lu Bu said, referring to the establishment of the Ministry of Officials, but limiting its powers.Wait until the time is right, and then let go slowly.

In this way, the new system is almost set up.

Under the emperor, there is the Ministry of Shangshu, and the two provinces of Zhongshu and Menxia will be added in the future.

The Shangshu Province is in charge of the government. Below it are the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Palace, the Ministry of Households, the Ministry of Civil Affairs, the Ministry of Punishment, the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Military Affairs, and the Ministry of Officials.It also happens to be nine departments, and the chief officer is still Jiuqing, but with a different name.Lv Bu referred to the system of three provinces and six ministries, but divided the powerful household and military departments into two parts, and restricted the rights of the official ministries.

People are still those people, but this system will gradually prove its vitality.Some "qing" level officials who have not yet been included in the Nine Departments will gradually be included in the future, or they will be marginalized and let them die.

The division of labor is clear and orderly.

"Marquis Wen, matters within Shangshu Province and other ministries need to be clarified." Jia Xu reminded.

"That's right! The Ministry of Shangshu set up a Shangshu, whose rank is equal to that of the Sangong, and this Marquis will be in charge!" Lu Bu said bluntly. "Sure enough!" Everyone thought to themselves, "Sure enough, you want to continue to control the government, you have the final say!" They thought to themselves.

"Under the Shangshu, there are left servants, middle servants, and right servants. They are one level lower than the ministers of each ministry. They are ranked two thousand stones, which is equivalent to Zhang Liao, a general with five sense organs. Jia Xu, Li Ru, and Du Ji are in charge of recording the affairs of the minister and taking care of the daily work." Lu Bu arranged again.

All the officials were naturally whispering, a little unhappy.However, just because Jia Xu and Li Ru had their taints, Du Ji went from the county magistrate to the military adviser of the general's mansion and then to this position. The three of them are all humble and powerful, and they will not wantonly override Jiuqing.It is a good thing to have some containment.

They also knew that this was Lu Bu's bottom line, and there was no room for negotiation. It would be absolutely impossible if the most critical part was not in Lu Bu's hands.

"As for the specific setting of a department, in principle, there is one Qing; one is the deputy; two or three are the servants of each division; and ten are the orders in charge of various tasks. The name; Cao Cao’s officials and others. The situation of each department is different, and after that, the provincial capital of Benhou’s Shangshu will be set up and the order will be issued!" Lu Bu finally said.

The restructuring of Jiuqing came to an end.

Above the imperial court, a brand new system is forming and developing.Through the new system after the restructuring of the Jiuqing, Lu Bu realized the overall control of the imperial court, and it was justifiably controlled.Under the circumstances that there are no Sangongs at present, and there will not be any in the future, Lu Bu can be said to be below one person and above ten thousand people.The little emperor doesn't care about things, Lu Bu is the boss.

This is also because he knows the history, so he dared to let go.Li Jue and Guo Fan, one hijacked the emperor, the other hijacked all the officials, and killed each other. This kind of thing can happen.

However, this is also sailing against the current, if you do not advance, you will retreat.Just like Cao Wei usurping the Han Dynasty, Lu Bu has now become a "big traitor". Either he can sweep the world and ascend to the throne; or, like Dong Zhuo, he will be ruined and die without a place to die.There is no third way to go.

In the court, some hostile forces still existed, but they all chose to lie dormant and submit temporarily. Once Lu Bu's forces entered a critical moment, they would attack.However, if Lu Bu's power keeps developing, these actual beneficiaries will gradually change and turn to support Lu Bu.

This is not fundamentally different from the history of officials who followed Cao Cao and gradually supported Cao Wei.

"Since Shangshusheng and Jiubu have been established to replace the original Shangshutai and the original Jiuqing, they must perform their duties! Everyone, go back and deal with affairs properly!" Lu Bu did not forget to remind.

A group of courtiers gradually left with various thoughts.

Next, Lu Bu and officials at all levels entered a period of adaptation to the new system.At the beginning, everyone was not familiar with it, but as time passed, the advantages of the new system gradually emerged.Due to the clear division of rights, the division of labor and cooperation, and the increase in the degree of "specialization", the operation of the entire court has become smoother, and the efficiency of management has also become higher and higher.

Secretly, Wang Yun, Zhou Zhong, Yang Biao and others who were no longer in the positions of the three princes did not connect with each other, but they were very disdainful and sarcastic. "Lv Bu is going to be the prime minister!... Lu Bu's set is simply ignorant! The Three Dukes and Nine Ministers have been passed down from ancient times and have been used all the time. Lu Bu doesn't know how to govern the country at all!..." There are many, Some slander.

Above the local level, he was surprised by the overall changes in the imperial court.

At first, they were also confused.I don't know that all kinds of affairs that I have been reporting to upwards before suddenly start to change. Who should I report to?They didn't understand until the Shangshu Province and the Ministry of Officials issued a complete set of official documents, and they quickly accepted it.

The system extends downwards, and the powers and responsibilities between the localities have become clearer, the affairs have become clearer, and the efficiency has been improved.

However, Lu Bu has not changed the local institutions for the time being.Again, the meal has to be eaten one bite at a time. This is a slow process.

The set of Cheqi General's Mansion still exists, but it has become a kind of auxiliary tool, in fact, it has been incorporated into the Ministry of War presided over by Lu Bu.

Time passed quickly, and March 193 arrived.

The local princes also gradually learned about some changes in the court.Among them, some people despise; some people value; some people are surprised; some people disdain; and so on.
