Fengshen Wendaoxing

In this way, Lu Chuan stayed in the study for almost a day.

In the evening, he will invite Wen Zhong to come to the house to discuss matters.

Wen Zhong said in surprise after he passed the mansion: "Junior Brother, you came to me so late..."

Lu Chuan looked serious: "Brother, there is something now, you must support me."

"What's the matter?"

"I want to... abolish the enfeoffment system!"

"What are you talking about?" Wen Zhong looked at Luchuan in surprise.

Lu Chuan shook his head: "I'm not kidding. This system might have helped stabilize the situation and order, strengthen the authority of the king and rule the world, but the shortcomings are equally obvious. You can see that I have listed it for you."

He handed out a bamboo slip to Wen Zhong.

Wen Zhong took the bamboo slip and opened it and looked at it earnestly, his expression becoming more solemn.

"It is true that the king has absolute authority, but now the power of the princes is too great. In their fiefdom, the power is too independent and no one can control."

Lu Chuan walked over and closed the door and said, "Human ambitions will grow. It seems that there is no peace between the princes. Wars often occur. Brother, I ask you, why did you suppress Yuan Futong in the north?"

Wen Zhong said solemnly: "Yuan Futong did not obey the king's order and launched a war to annex the surrounding princes. His heart is punishable!"

"Yes, this is what I said, the strength of the princes will also increase a little bit. You can see how far the four princes have grown this time."

Lu Chuan said with emotion: "This prince's power is too great, so we must take back the hands of the king."

"How to collect, you have to replace this system with something new if you want to abolish it." Wen Zhong's eyes moved.

He was tempted by Lu Chuan's proposal.

He is not a fool either. Lu Chuan has analyzed the pros and cons so clearly, what else is he thinking?

The only problem is that the abolition of a system requires a substitute and a better one.

Otherwise, abolishing the entire Yin and Shang dynasties will lead to complete chaos.

Lu Chuan smiled and said, "I thought of a state and county system. Open the bamboo slips and have a look behind them."

Speaking of this, he also had a plan. He chose to abolish the enfeoffment system first, otherwise the abolition of the current "hereditary officialdom" would touch the cake of the noble class.

Then these officials dared to turn their faces with him regardless of whether they had friendship with him or not. After all, under the current system, their official position can be hereditary, regardless of whether future generations are capable or not.

But when the system of officialdom is about to be abolished, wouldn't the offspring not be able to become officials directly?

But to move Lu Chuan is definitely to move them.

But not now. It will not be too late for him to engage in these aristocratic **** after the implementation of the state and county system.

Um?

He feels like a woodpecker, he used to catch insects and now he came to Dashang to catch insects.

Wen Zhong opened his eyes and stared: "The system of states and counties, states, counties, counties..."

Gradually, Wen Zhong's eyes brightened, and the light in his eyes became brighter as he went back: "Junior Brother, what came up here? Okay, you!"

Lu Chuan coughed dryly: "I was inspired by others. Junior brother, I was thinking on the shoulders of giants."

Regardless of whether it is a prefecture-county system or a state-county system, there are only two levels: prefecture, county or state and county.

However, this is a fairy world!

Not to mention anything else, this entire China is really too big, and the Central Plains area is vast, not to mention places like southern Xinjiang and northern borders.

Only two levels are definitely not enough, so he merged the two systems into three levels.

Of course, townships, pavilions, and li can be subdivided below the county level.

Compared with the enfeoffment system, this system of prefectures, counties and prefectures is of greater significance. It can strengthen centralization and local management, prevent the division of local separatism, and facilitate political stability and economic development to unify Kyushu.

Wen Zhong hesitated while talking, "But now that the rebellion for many years has just calmed down, and the world is initially set, do you think it would be better to let the people stabilize for a period of time?"

"On the contrary, those princes are now defeated and afraid that even if they resist, they have no power to resist, so it is the time to abolish the enfeoffment system."

Lu Chuan's eyes flickered and said: "But waiting for a while is equivalent to giving them a chance to breathe. When we want to abolish them, they will definitely resist."

"it is good!"

Wen Zhong nodded immediately: "Just do what you said!"

Lu Chuan smiled and said, "Well, I will rely on my brother to support me tomorrow."

The abolition of the enfeoffment is very important, he must ventilate with Wen Zhong in advance, otherwise it will be a little sudden to speak directly to the hall, making it difficult to respond.

The next day, early morning, although it was early spring at this time, the weather was still slightly chilly.

After the new king succeeded to the throne, the meritorious deeds meeting began.

"This time the Yin and Shang dynasties lasted eighteen years to put down the chaos of the princes, and the lonely teacher, Dr. Lu, was indispensable."

Wu Geng looked down and said, "Master Lu will be appointed as the sub-physician today, and I hope Master Lu will not live up to Gu's expectations."

The ministers exchanged silent glances when they heard the words, and nodded secretly. Unexpected colors flashed in their eyes.

They see Lu Chuan's merits in their eyes, and in Dashang's civil service, the Taishi is the head, the prime minister is the second, and the Asian minister is the second, ranking above all civil servants.

Taishi is still Wen Zhong, the gray-haired old man who was originally gray-haired is getting younger and younger now, which makes them very envious.

The opposite of him is that Cheng Bi has worked. The more he lives, the older he is now that he is old and weak, and he will not be able to work for a few years, and Lu Chuan is now Yaxiang.

After waiting for a few years, Bi Gan retired from the position of prime minister, who else besides Lu Chuan?

"Thank you, King Longen!"

It was also at this time that Lu Chuan went out of class to play: "Thank the king, the minister has something to play!"

"Master Lu, what's the matter?" Wu Geng was startled.

He respects Lu Chuan very much now, not only because he knows that this teacher is great, but his father Di Xin asked him to listen more to the teacher when he was in private talks with him at Pangshuiguan.

And after returning this time, his mother Huang Fei also wanted him to respect him very much.

Lu Chuan said: "The officials thought that the princes caused chaos because the enfeoffment system gave them too much power and made the princes more powerful.

Therefore, the minister thought that after experiencing this chaos, the king should abolish the enfeoffment system and the vassal state, and change the new system to establish the world! "

When he said it, it seemed as if a spring thunder sounded in the hall, and the eyes of Manchu Wenwu suddenly looked over.

Except Wen Zhong knew in advance, the eyes of the other ministers were shocked and surprised.

Another change to the new system?

The origin of this enfeoffment system has long been untraceable, but it is said that it had been implemented during the time of Emperor Xuanyuan Huangdi. This Master Lu actually had to change the system of sages for thousands of years...

The ministers communicated in a low voice.

"Change...new system?" Wu Geng's expression was slightly condensed.

There will never be a victor in a war!

Although they killed countless rebels, corpse mountains and blood, and suppressed the princes, the price paid by Yin Shang was not small.

Not only did hundreds of thousands of soldiers bury their bones in Xiqi, the Yin and Shang Dynasty almost perished, and even his father, Di Xin, failed to come back during the imperial conquest.

"What do you think?" Wu Geng looked at the others.

Although he was young, he saw so many killings, bloodsheds, and corpses on this trip to Xiqi. After the war, his immature face became more mature, and he had a trace of the demeanor of being a king.

The ministers were still discussing in a low voice, with a serious and serious expression.

Bi Gan also frowned and groaned and whispered something with Wen Zhong in front of him.

Lu Chuan looked at them with a calm expression, not anxious at all.

How much damage the vassal rebellion caused to Yin and Shang, these ministers knew in their hearts that even the first emperor Xin died on Zhengxi Road.

Therefore, these ministers will seriously consider his proposal.

If he can come up with a new system to replace, then everything will basically be a matter of course.

"To the king, the veteran thinks that this matter has to be considered carefully."

At a critical moment, Wen Zhong cooperated with the singing and said to Lu Chuan: "Master Lu, the reform of the new system is of great importance. If you want to change, you need a set of alternative systems. You can't change it as you want."

Lu Chuan secretly clicked a compliment in his heart, and took out a volume of melodies from his sleeves, and said in a nutshell: "This is a new system that the minister has worked hard to come up with to replace, and please have a look with you."

The attendant passed the memorial slip to Wu Geng. After reading it, Wu Geng felt that he didn't understand but he felt very powerful.

So he let it be seen by the officials, and then the memo will be passed between the officials one by one.

"State and county system..."

All the officials showed shock in their faces and eyes after reading them, and looked at the upright man standing in the hall in surprise.

Although it was not the first time they saw Master Lu's outstanding talents, they were shocked every time.

State and county system!

Under the central government, there are states, one state has one state animal husbandry; under the state, there is a county, and one county has a prefect; under the county, there is a county, and one county has a magistrate!

In addition, there are two officials who are in charge of administration, military affairs, and supervision, and no longer hold power in one person's hands.

Many ministers think that such a system is feasible without affecting their interests.

Very feasible!

They also now understand that too much power of the princes is never a good thing, and the lesson this time is profound and painful enough.

"This system is simply...the old minister has no opinion."

Wen Zhong originally wanted to say a few words to the younger brother's business, but after thinking about it, he stopped.

After Bigan saw it, he looked relieved when he looked at Master Lu again, as if he had a successor: "The old minister has no objection."

"The minister has no objection!"

"No officials..."

"Okay!" Wu Geng said solemnly, "Then follow the instructions of Master Lu, abolish the enfeoffment, and all implement the state and county system."

For the princes who killed his father, he now hates as much as he hates.

Next, Lu Chuan and the ministers took out a map in the court hall to divide the Yin and Shang areas into 36 states, 108 prefectures, and more than 1,500 counties.

This is only a preliminary formulation, and the number of these states, counties, and counties will increase in the future.

After the agreement was reached, the Wang Ling to abolish the enfeoffment system also began to be issued to the major princes.

The system of states and counties was formally implemented throughout the country.

At the same time, Master Lu also prepared a soldier and horse to take precautions. As long as any prince does not comply with this system, he will lead people to destroy others.

In fact, he now only needs one man, one horse and one sword, or even a sword of death to conquer a city.

Unfortunately, this disappointed him after all.

After January, the decree to change the new system was spread everywhere~www.readwn.com~ But as he said to Wen Zhong, those princes were just beaten up for fear that it didn’t take long for the princes to be beaten, and the injuries were still painful. Where can you dare? Revolt? How can I resist?

So the princes were abolished.

Not reconciled is better than lifeless. They have already seen Lu Chuan's greatness. Of course, there are some more compatible ones, such as Jizhou Hou Su Quanzhong, Bei Bo Hou Chong Heihu and others.

These were still people who had not participated in the rebellion earlier, so Lu Chuan deliberately played Wu Geng and gave them to one of the 36 state shepherd officials, but they must have been transferred from the original fief.

In addition, the implementation of this new system has created many new vacancies.

In the past, the official position of Chaoge was more monks and less congee, but now this allows many noble children to become officials.

After coming to praise Master Lu for giving gifts, these unlearned noble children happily took office.

In front of the National Teacher's Mansion, Master Lu smiled and waved goodbye, watching their carriage drift away. Fengshen Wendaoxing
