The Strongest Overlord of the Three Kingdoms

Under the guidance of the surrendered pirates, Liu Ke took down the simple fortress with ease.

So far, Zhoushan Island has been settled.

In the past few days, Liu Ke has been responsible for stabilizing the hearts of the people. With his charm plus 1, he will surrender wherever he goes.

Gan Ning was in charge of eliminating the small group of pirates nearby, and soon, there was only one force left in the Zhoushan Islands.

Since this will be the naval base in the future, Gan Ning is very careful.

As for the construction of the harbor, it requires a lot of patience.

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

It is impossible for Liu to stay in Zhoushan all the time, so he came back soon.

Everything in Dongyang is stable, so Liu Ke plans to make some reforms.

He summoned Guo Jia, Jia Xu, Lu Su, Chen Qun, Xun You, and Cai Yong, and notified Mi Zhu of Jiujiang.

After Mi Zhu came back, he immediately confessed to Liu Ke and said that the matter had been resolved.

Liu Ke nodded, what he wanted was this attitude, maybe he would have dealt with Mi Fang just because of such a trivial matter.

The first reform, of course, is the official system.

The system of three provinces and six ministries proposed by Liu Ke caught their eyes, and it turned out to be very complete.

The three provinces refer to Zhongshu Province, Menxia Province, and Shangshu Province, and the six departments refer to the Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of Households, the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Punishment, and the Ministry of Industry under Shangshu Province.Each department governs four divisions, for a total of twenty-four divisions.

Everyone asked for some details, and Liu Ke answered them one by one, expressing satisfaction.

However, Xun You still raised doubts, saying: "The reform of official positions has always been a matter of the central government. The implementation of this matter may not be good for the lord."

When Liu Ke thought about it, he understood that although he is now one of the most powerful princes, he has not clearly separated from the rule of the Han Dynasty.

It is easy for people to think that this is disobedience.

"Now that the center is in chaos, my lord's move is very good, why not carry it out? As for what they think, I have no control over Yangzhou." Mi Zhu firmly supported.

why?

Because Mi Zhu is a vested interest.

Mi Zhu is now the prefect of one party, not conferred by the imperial court, but Liu Ke.Now that the official system is being reformed, his grade will definitely be improved.

Everyone else maintained a certain view, but Liu Ke didn't feel embarrassed. What he wanted was to proceed step by step, and it was impossible to change it all at once.

In fact, Liu Ke is a little lazy. It stands to reason that he should arrange an official position for each of his subordinates, but this has to be applied to the court.

That is to say, under normal circumstances, he has to show his merits to the imperial court for his subordinates, and then the imperial court canonize the subordinates' official positions.

What a hassle!

Therefore, in the court files, his subordinates are all white.

For example, Guo Jia, who was astounded in Yangzhou, but in Luoyang, he is a fucking citizen!

Therefore, the reform of the official system can solve this problem well.

We don't play with Luoyang anymore, we build a small court by ourselves.

No wonder Xun You was worried.

However, in order to gain the support of the aristocratic family, Liu Ke threw out the bait and said:

"The problem of selecting scholars has always been Yangzhou's heart disease. Next, we will solve this problem."

As soon as these words came out, everyone sat upright.

This is too important, it involves the foundation of the family, as well as the interests of the scholars.

"The first point is the Nine-Rank Zhongzheng System." Liu Kedao explained further,

"The prefectures and counties elected famous retired officials and scholars to become the 'preparation Zhongzheng', which became the official 'Zhongzheng' after being decided by the state pastor. The duty of the Zhongzheng is to investigate and evaluate the state and county people, divide them into nine grades, and serve as officials The basis for the appointment."

On this point, Liu Ke has changed a bit. Zhongzheng is no longer a local election, but he personally finalizes it.

Moreover, it is said that it is a "ministration of officials", and those who do not support the system of three provinces and six ministries can get out.

Mi Zhu and the others breathed a sigh of relief. After all, the lord has made concessions to the aristocratic family. This official selection system is simply tailor-made for them.

Everyone immediately expressed their support, as if they were afraid that Liu Ke would go back on his word.

In ancient times, this kind of recommendation was very useful, otherwise it would not have been used for so long, and Liu did not intend to change it.

"Then, let Changwen complete it." Liu Ke said.

Chen Qun quickly said yes and agreed.

However, since it is the first point, there will be a second point.

Liu Ke went on to say: "The second point is to get a scholar from the Imperial Academy."

Cai Yong's spirit shook, and finally it was his turn to shake up.

This is also expected by everyone.

"Since it is Taixue, it is based on learning and applying what it has learned. Erudite scholars can be officials, and refined scholars can be officials."
