Chapter 574

It is not difficult to do things, but it is difficult to coordinate interpersonal relationships and balance the interests of all parties.The ancient and modern are the same.

Even if Zhao Xi is the king, he still needs coordination and balance, especially in a dynasty like the Song Dynasty.

This time, for the Song Dynasty court, promoting the opening of the supervisory office is probably the most consistent political event of the Song Dynasty, and there was no noise in the entire court.

Perhaps in the eyes of certain courtiers, all of this is the result of far-reaching planning by the officials, after all, this is what the officials are committed to promoting.

Actually, in Zhao Xi's view, the promotion of the supervision system has come to fruition. Even if there are a few opponents, there will be no waves.There is no rush for this moment.

Regarding the training for preparing to be inspectors, Zhao Xi did not simply train them on the regulations of the inspection, but more to instill a belief, loyalty, and the concept of family and country.

The brainwashing method of instilling beliefs in later generations has already taken shape in the lecture hall.

For soldiers and generals, it is much easier to let this idea take root in their minds than for inspectors.After all, these inspectors have accepted the so-called enlightenment of the sages, and they have been infected by the atmosphere of the supremacy of scholars in the country.

Therefore, Zhao Xi is really not in a hurry, and he even wants to promote it simultaneously with the reform of the official system.

Now it has turned into an impassioned request to open the government office.

This time, it was not planned.

The development and changes of things follow certain laws. Rather than saying that the Manchaotang's request to promote supervision is Zhao Xi's plan, it is better to say that the development of things is inevitable.

Countless accidents and schemes, after a long period of deliberation, have naturally reached this point.

Without the help of Empress Dowager Cao to win over the old six families when they were young, there would be no capital to occupy the right to speak in Guangnan Manganese Mine and Dali Mining City later.

Wen Yanbo and Fu Bi would not have left a deep impression on Wen Yanbo and Fu Bi if Wan Yinshan hadn't crushed the imperial army led by Wen Yanbo in the drill and met Fu Bi by chance.

It was also because of that time that Zhao Xi's southern expedition, subtly and smoothly, began to solve the problem of redundant troops in the country.

Then he dominated the currency dispute, the battle of the calamity year, and the rebellion of the rebels, and gradually built a workshop city system that could influence the country's dynasty.

It was also from that time that Zhao Xi gradually gained a force that was absolutely loyal to him, as well as a new army capable of sweeping the entire era.

It seemed that in an instant, he was no longer something the courtiers could contend with.

He really experienced the Southern and Northern Wars, and completely established a martial and powerful image of the emperor.

At the same time, he applauded the courtiers more than once, which made the courtiers truly fear him.

Taking advantage of the situation, borrowing strength, digging holes, filling holes, and burying people, doing one thing basically made the courtiers feel awe, and they became more and more afraid of their own means.

This is how Han Qi and Wen Yanbo played tricks but had to explain it in a different way, and the Huangcheng Secretary meddling with the government, but no one objected, so they had to promote supervision and use this tactful way to prevent the Huangcheng Secretary from intervening in the government affairs .

Because, no one knows how many things the Imperial City Secretary is up to!
Of course, since this step has been reached, Zhao Xi has no reason to stop it.It is exactly what he wants to use the supervisory office as an experimental field for the reform of the official system.

Therefore, even if the supervisory yamen was officially opened, the censors would logically push it away in the form of a new official system pilot.

Set up a chief inspector, who is from the second rank or the third rank. In addition to retaining the official salary of the second rank and the third rank, the average salary of all the second rank and the third rank in the country will be used as a unified subsidy. Salary, and other various subsidy posts have been cancelled.

Fan Chunren was the first Chief Inspector of the Shangzhou government office, and his official rank was set as Cong Sanpin.

There are three deputy chief inspectors, one of whom also serves as the editor-in-chief of the internal staff.The official rank is the third rank or the fourth rank, and the official salary of the third rank and the fourth rank is the official salary, and the average salary of the third rank and the fourth rank in the country is the post salary.

Cai Que can be regarded as having truly entered the rank of senior court officials.

All postal salaries no longer follow the person forever, but only change with the person's functions. At the same time, the same is true for official salary.

Once you become an official, the official salary will be retained, and the post salary will be halved.

Similarly, if the official is rewarded and punished by the court, if the official is not demoted, it will be reflected by the increase or decrease of the post salary.If the official is demoted, the double salary of the official and the post will reflect the punishment at the same time.

All the prefectures, counties and counties of the country have all set up dispatched agencies of the supervisory office, and all expenses of the resident supervisors will be taken care of by the supervisory headquarters, which has no relationship with the local state capitals.

In addition, all inspectors implement a five-year rotation system, that is, inspectors shall not serve for more than five years in one place, one state, one county, or even all the way.

Each road has one road supervisor and two patrol supervisors.Each prefecture has one superintendent, two deputy superintendents, and so on, all the way to the county.

There are a number of officials in the supervisory offices at all levels, and the number of supervisors to be sent is determined according to factors such as the size of the military road, whether it is important or not.

All road supervisors at the first level of the road, the official rank is unified as the fourth rank or the fourth rank, and the calculation method of salary is the same as that of the chief inspector's office.

The inspectors at the Lu level have the authority to investigate only the prefectures and counties, and the court officials at the Lu level will be investigated by the chief inspector yamen...to prevent the power of the Lu supervisors from interfering in the political affairs of the local state government.

Similarly, the supervisory authority at the prefecture level is limited to county magistrates below one prefecture.

In the supervisory system, Guochaoquan’s old practice of dispatching titles was abandoned, that is to say, assuming the post of supervisory yamen would correspond to the corresponding official rank at the same time.

All supervisory offices have no right to interfere with the appointment of officials in prefectures and counties, and prefectures and counties have no right to interfere with the investigation and conviction of supervisory offices.

Those who have been convicted will be executed by the supervisory yamen in accordance with relevant regulations and regulations, and there will be special executive officers for the execution, all of whom are soldiers who are no longer able to fight for various reasons.

In this way, the supervisory system has truly become an independent system.

At the same time, the garrisons of each state capital have also stationed supervisors, who belong to the supervisory office of the state capital.

The entire supervisory office of the Guochao is only responsible for investigation and investigation, and does not participate in the conviction.The evidence obtained after the investigation was formed into a file and transferred to the Yamen of the Ministry of Punishment or Dali Temple for conviction.

Local state officials are no longer responsible for the criminal affairs of officials with official status, and the supervisory yamen is responsible for them.

At the same time, the imperial court opened a channel for local officials to report to the supervisory yamen, forming a mutual supervision mechanism between the chief officials of the local state capital and the supervisory yamen.

The supervisory yamen is directly responsible to the king, while the magistrates correspond to the political affairs hall of the imperial court, that is, the deliberation and cabinet after the reform of the official system in the future.

With this system, the monarch and ministers rose to the top to check and balance.

In the whole link, there is the most important point, which is the separation of the power of conviction and disposal of the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple.

The Ministry of Punishments and Dali Temple are only responsible for convicting crimes. According to different official positions, the final disposal power belongs to the court and the king.

In the final analysis, this is still a concrete manifestation of centralization, which is more conducive to the imperial court's rule over local state capitals.

This series of processes, decentralization...~checks and balances...centralization, is ultimately a manifestation of the will of the king or the court.
