"Well, sir, it's not that I have too many things to do, it's just that I can't violate my orders, and I'm not the kind of person who can rest assured of my qualifications. Can you help me find out, is there anyone in Lujiang who can get me a job?" Where is the power?"

"Although I have many things to do, I spend less money! I don't want a salary, why don't you help me find it?"

Somewhat embarrassed, he scratched his head at Zhang Yan. Lu Su also knew that what he said was inappropriate, but he had no other suitable solution. He could only hope that the other party really treated talents like the rumors. If you are thirsty, you can even find him a suitable position.

On the other side, Zhang Yan looked at the extremely majestic man in front of him with a somewhat shy expression, opened his mouth, but couldn't make a sound for a long time.

"Ah, this..."

"This is not impossible."

He glanced at Lu Su with some embarrassment. Zhang Yan was still a little eager for this man with the buff of "consultant fee reduced by 90%".

Chapter 26 The prototype of the cabinet

"Well, Zijing, I can understand your desire to make contributions as soon as possible, and I also understand the situation in your family. This family has scriptures that are difficult to recite. Go along."

"If you are really willing to come to Lujiang to work, it's not that I can't find a suitable place to put you, but the requirements for these positions are very high, and they are not comparable to those clerks who spend their days in the tent. of."

"Like... well, do you know about the cabinet?"

He tentatively asked Lu Su, Zhang Yan was not incomprehensible to the other party's situation, and he really lacked some people under his command who could help him share the pressure.

Since Lu Su has this idea and ability, Zhang Yan doesn't mind sharing some heavy tasks that occupy most of his energy.

……

"cabinet?"

"The emperor's cabinet? But this is not..."

After muttering something softly, Lu Su's face suddenly changed. Apparently, the word "cabinet" made him think of something bad.

And Zhang Yan didn't play tricks, just nodded like this, and gave a slight "hmm".

"You are right. It is the Emperor's Cabinet, or a political advisory body modeled after the Emperor's Cabinet."

Speaking of the cabinet, the first thing many people think of is probably a power system from the West, which is the so-called responsible cabinet system.

This system takes the political party as the unit and forms a special ruling group around the party leader. A large number of members are responsible for participating in and discussing the state affairs.

What most people don't know is that, as early as the Western Zhou Dynasty, the so-called "cabinet" took shape in the far east.

Situ, that is, the prime minister is responsible for personnel and government affairs advice;

Sima, that is, the general is responsible for military actions;

Sikong, that is, the doctor Yushi, is responsible for supervision and reporting.

The three divisions or the Sangong system, which China has been using since the pre-Qin period, is to some extent the prototype and foundation of the cabinet system.

He transformed the backward mode of administration of a hundred officials, one-person participation of the monarch, and decision-making into an advanced mode of administration of a hundred officials, participation of three ministers in politics, and decision-making of the monarch, which greatly improved the work efficiency of the head of a country. It can be said that it was the earliest state affairs. Consulting agency.

By the time of Ming Chengzu Judy, the cabinet system had already been used as a fairly mature political system in many fields such as Tian Zi Ji Quan.

It is said that after Ming Cheng Zu Jing Nan succeeded, the first major problem facing the court was the confrontation between the courtiers of the North and the South, and there were even many southern officials who shielded each other and emptied the emperor.

In order to completely resolve this situation, Judy directly downgraded Jinling Yingtianfu to Nanzhili at that time, and at the same time moved Zhili, the capital of the Ming Dynasty, to his base Shuntianfu. influence to ensure that their status is not truncated.

In order to strengthen his authority as the Son of Heaven, he was also the first to establish a real cabinet, completely splitting the power originally under the prime minister, and ensuring the smooth progress of a series of large-scale political initiatives in the early Ming Dynasty.

It can be said that the basic political model of the Ming Dynasty, in which the central cabinet was in charge of discussing state affairs, the emperor was in charge of making decisions, and the six ministries exercised administrative power, began to emerge at that time.

It replaced the original top-to-bottom pyramid-shaped oriental power structure with a more advanced spherical structure. The center of the ball is the heaven, the emperor, and then the cabinet, then the six courtiers, and finally the local government. officials and the military.

And this spherical structure corresponds to Zhang Yan's side, which naturally reflects the political model with himself as the core, the cabinet on the outside, the various ruling departments in Lujiang on the outside, and finally the political model of the local counties.

It is foreseeable that as long as this organization similar to the current "civilian corps" can correctly exercise its rights, there is no doubt that Zhang Yan's handling of government affairs will be greatly accelerated, and he will even be able to work under the staff of these people. Check for gaps and make up for omissions to avoid some common anachronistic mistakes in your own decisions.

And Zhang Yan himself doesn't mind dividing up some of these things under his hands.

……

"Zijing, I... We in Lujiang have recently planned to form a cabinet, mainly responsible for helping the prefect handle various affairs, and at the same time put forward suggestions and opinions on some policies, so as to replace the unreasonable county officials and county lieutenants. Polarized job responsibilities.”

"At present, the main members of the cabinet will be the heirs of various families, or simply some talents who govern the world and manage the country, specially assisting the prefect to make decisions on military affairs, internal affairs, diplomacy, and even the future development direction of the entire force, that is, I often refer to the right to participate in and discuss state affairs."

"How? Maybe this position is a lot harder than ordinary civil servants and military generals, and the requirements are also much higher, but I believe that judging from your ability, there must be no problem with your competence."

Looking at each other with a smile, Zhang Yan said slowly.

That's right, as Zhang Yan said, what currently consumes him the most energy is Lujiang's overall military defense, internal affairs development, and formulation of external development strategies.

Leaving aside the planning aspects of these contents, for example, Lujiang's future military defense mobilization, construction of military facilities, training of veterans, and recruitment of recruits can all be allocated as a complete part.

Like at present, the overall work related to the army in Lujiang is distributed to many generals under Zhang Yan. At the same time, in name, Zhang Yan, as the supreme commander of these generals, is responsible for coordinating and planning the affairs of the entire army.

There are naturally advantages to doing this. For example, the training intensity of these soldiers, the construction of the army's style, and even the clothing and food supply of each soldier are all planned by Zhang Yan. He can directly understand the army's The most real situation at the moment.

But this kind of hands-on approach is only used for small-scale military command after all. It must have been good to do this when he had 4000 people under his command, but now the entire Lujiang army has as many as 6, and it will even expand to With [-] people, Zhang Yan's previous practice would naturally consume a lot of his energy.

In addition, the same is true for aspects such as internal affairs and people's livelihood construction, and regional diplomatic posture.

As long as Zhang Yan finds enough talents and disperses the work of the people under him one by one, then sooner or later, he will be able to live a leisurely life where he only needs to concentrate on the direction of development.

And this kind of change, just like the change between role-playing games and historical strategy games, will allow Zhang Yan to expand the field of influence from individuals to localities, and from localities to the whole country, and finally achieve The emperor knows the state of affairs in the world without going out.

Chapter 27 Automatic attack script AI bushi

You know, in the original world, after several years of growth, Lu Su had already become the governor of Soochow, responsible for commanding all military operations of Soochow.

If this is the case, it is definitely no problem for Zhang Yan to hand over the defense of Lujiang, and even the military affairs of the entire force after the future force is expanded.

Furthermore, after entering the cabinet, Lu Su provided only suggestions to Zhang Yan, which is the so-called right to discuss politics.

But it was Zhang Yan himself who actually made the decision and ordered it, so that there would be no obvious confrontation between the cabinet and the local government.

It's like the relationship between the municipal party committee office and various departments of the city government in later generations. It cannot be said that the closer the members of the municipal party committee office are to the two cores of power in the city, the higher their status will be.

The two are responsible for different tasks, and the nature of the work is also completely different. This is what is unique to the modern governance system and political structure compared with the primitive political system.

"There is only deliberative power but no executive power? This is a bit interesting...the cabinet, the cabinet..."

In front of him, Lu Su was obviously lost in thought after listening to Zhang Yan's words.

With his knowledge and mind, he can naturally understand the "proper nouns" mentioned by Zhang Yan, and there will be no such things as "what does this mean?", "what does this mean" that are common in TV dramas Case.

The reason why he bowed his head in contemplation was nothing else but because Lu Su had to seriously consider Zhang Yan's suggestion.

This is the first case of forming a local cabinet in the entire Eastern Han Dynasty, and even in the entire Huaxia Zhang Yan.

……

"Wait, if the responsibilities of the county magistrate and county lieutenant are divided into the cabinet, wouldn't it be equivalent to the eunuch deciding all affairs alone? This, can the emperor really agree?"

"No, it's not just this point. To form a cabinet, the number of people in this cabinet will definitely not be small. There must be at least three or five people in each government affairs, so that this cabinet can be formed."

"But if that's the case, how many literati and scholars are there in Lujiang to allow the prefect to use and squander like this?"

Somewhat surprised, he raised his head and asked Zhang Yan. After a moment of contemplation, Lu Su suddenly reacted:

Even if we don't mention how much power the prefect of Lujiang has in his hands for the time being, and just split the powers of the county magistrate and the county lieutenant, how many more "official positions" will he have in Lujiang, and how many scribes will he recruit? ?

Who doesn't know that the more officials they have under their control, the better, but this also requires a sufficient reserve of talents in their hands?

Are there enough scholars in Lujiang?Enough shit!

Anyone who doesn't know that Jiangdong is located in a remote place, even if the cultural context is not compared with those in the core areas of the Central Plains, compared with his hometown Xuzhou, it is far from enough.

In the vast land of nearly 200 million square kilometers in Yangzhou, all the scribes combined may not have as many scholars as Yanzhou, which is only one-fifth the size of Yangzhou, let alone the county of Lujiang.

Others don't know, but he, Lu Su, knows that Lujiang River is not far to the south of Xiapi, his hometown, and there are only two or three aristocratic families in the entire county, and the rest are not so much aristocratic families as It is said that those businessmen who have been traveling around all the year round transferred some family properties, and then went to Jiangdong, a family novice village, to try to see if they could realize their class transformation from merchants to famous families.

……

"This...is actually enough."

On the other side, in front of Lu Su, Zhang Yan scratched his head in embarrassment, but there was inevitably a proud look on his face.

He naturally knew what the other party was worried about, but in the past year, especially in the past six months, the development of Lujiang far exceeded most people's imagination.

In ancient times when information was relatively blocked, it was quite normal for Lu Su to not know much about these things.

"You don't have to worry about this matter. Lujiang has its own system and national conditions. If the prefect can make such a fuss, it is natural that the emperor has spoken."

"As for the question of whether the number of scribes is enough... You should have not paid attention to the news from the past for a long time, right?"

Zhang Yan smiled slightly, and said to Lu Su:

"If it was a few months ago, I am afraid that the situation in Lujiang would not be enough to support the establishment of the cabinet. But now, speaking of its status in the hearts of scholars in the world, even if Lujiang is not a hometown of scholars like Yingchuan, it is still a real place. In the emerging city."

……

"A new city?"

"Hehe, this... To tell you the truth, I was indeed traveling a few days ago and went to a lot of places. I only came home two days ago, and I haven't had time to learn the latest news."

"I'm really not sure about the saying that scholars of the world yearn for a new city, but is there any special saying?"

Asking Zhang Yan softly, after hearing what he said, Lu Su inevitably felt a little curious about what he said.

And Zhang Yan has an expression like a master:

"Well, that's natural."

"Zijing, you and I understand the truth that hearing is believing and seeing is believing. When you arrive in this county, you will naturally understand why I am so confident."

"How about it, why don't you go to Lujiang with me. If you come, you will be the first member of the cabinet of the prefect of Lujiang. It is not a problem for the cabinet minister to call himself a bachelor."

"As for the work after entering the cabinet, it is easy. Now Lujiang has a large number of troops, and it is always inconvenient to move among them. If you come, start with the Lujiang military and administration, and be responsible for the distribution of tens of thousands of soldiers in the entire Lujiang River. How about the arrangements for scheduling and defensive attacks?"

Smiling, he said to Lu Su, when Zhang Yan thought that he would be able to break free from the heavy military affairs, the smile on his face seemed to be uncontrollable, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly.

Although he can do such things as deploying troops and generals to arrange defense, and deploying troops based on the terrain of Lujiang River to defend against foreign invasion, in the final analysis, Zhang Yan's relevant knowledge comes from the games in his previous life. There is only one horizontal push that can be used.

Lu Su is not the case. Having received all kinds of education, he has quite a lot of practical experience, and he will definitely be able to make better use of the current army under Zhang Yan.

In fact, it is like the current Lujiang River. Although there are many soldiers and generals, they are quite passive in both offense and defense.

To put it more vividly, Zhang Yan seems to be a novice who dismisses the deployment of the army in peacetime. Apart from letting the army continue to train, he neither responds to threats that may be made outside his territory, nor does he have any Want to take the initiative to attack, and even attack and take down the fortresses around Lujiang.

These situations will definitely change to varying degrees after the introduction of Lu Su's elementary "AI automatic control" auxiliary system.
