"The officials of the Song Dynasty have completed the reorganization and reorganization of the armies in the capital, the four east and west routes in Beijing, and the six routes in Shaanxi. With the military power in their hands, they began to change the official system?" Yelu Dashi also murmured, "Is he too anxious?"
"It's not too urgent." Brother Xiao Seng said thoughtfully.
"There is an emperor and a minister. Everyone in the world knows that when a new emperor comes to the throne, he will naturally make some big moves. As long as there are no earth-shaking changes, the officials and people of the Song Dynasty will definitely accept it. The officials of the Song Dynasty took advantage of this enthusiasm to make major changes, which is better than
After a year or two, when everyone is comfortable and stable again, we will need to change to become stronger."
Yelu Dashi thought for a while and strongly agreed with Xiao Sengge's statement.
At this time, he also understood that Brother Xiao Seng was not in vain.
At least he has been in the officialdom for many years, and he is very clear about the methods of the emperor, the thoughts of the officials, and the ways of the officialdom. He sees the power and tactics of the officialdom even more clearly than he does himself.
The two of them murmured a few words in a low voice and continued reading.
"The civil servants of the Song Dynasty were divided into nine ranks and nineteen ranks, from the first rank to the ninth rank, and then added one rank to the lower ranks..."
"The chief official of Shangshu Province, Shangshu ordered to change the title of Dazai, and the left and right deputies are left and right servants. The Shangshu Province is divided into six departments: officials, households, rituals, workers, punishments, and soldiers. The ministers are in charge of them, and the deputy positions are left and right ministers. Note: Zuo Shilang is Shangshu.
The following first auxiliary officers, if the minister is vacant or leaves the ministry to take charge of affairs, can temporarily protect the minister's seal, and only one person will be appointed. The right minister shall appoint several officers."
"In each department and department, the chief officer of each department is the Dusi, and the deputy is the Deputy Dusi...The sub-bureaus, divisions, and chief officers are divided into doctors and chiefs..."
"The Minister of the Secretariat obeys the imperial edicts and laws, manages the affairs of the country, handles relations with foreign vassal states, concludes treaties, formulates government decrees, appoints and removes state officials..."
"The chief official of Zhongshu Province, the Minister of Zhongshu was changed to Situ, and the left and right deputies were the left and right assistants. The rules are the same as the left and right servants. The Zhongshu Province is also divided into six departments: officials, households, etiquette, work, punishment, and soldiers, and the edicts are formulated according to the imperial edict.
The law..."
"The chief official of the province under the command, the assistant minister under the command was changed to the Sikou. The province under the command has the Ducha Yuan, which is divided into the left and right censors... who have the power of supervision to enforce the law; there is the Dali Temple, which is divided into Zhengqing and Shaoqing of Dali.
Execute judicial power. The Sikou is also the chief minister of Dali to supervise the judicial power. There are five Shaoqings who are in charge of judicial decisions..."
"The chief officer of the Secretary Province is the Shizhong, and the deputy position is the Stander of the Left and Right Cavalry. He is responsible for marching and announcing the system. He is also an advisor to the government and has the power of supervision... The draft of the central restructuring is as above..."
"Local restructuring... Kaifeng Prefecture in the capital is still the same, and the northwest road of Beijing is changed to Henan County, which governs Luoyang, governs Luoyang, and the two Zhili prefectures of the Song Dynasty, as well as the seven prefectures of Shaanxi, Deng, Cai, Ru, Ying, Wei, and Xiang.
It governs several counties..."
Seeing this, Xiao Sengge murmured: "Henan County governs Luoyang and governs ten states..."
"Xiao Prefect, my subordinates are not very familiar with the geography of the Song Dynasty. It is better to find someone who is familiar with it."
"A certain person has an old companion who travels all over the Song Dynasty as a businessman. Call him here. You will know after asking him. If he is coming, call Xiao Ba Ya."
Xiao Ba Ya is in his forties, and his face is full of weather.
"Young man, I have met the noble provincial governor and the noble Yelu."
"Xiao Ba Ya, look at what places are included in the newly established Henan County of the Song Dynasty?"
"yes."
After reading it again, Xiao Ba Ya replied: "Two noble lords, in addition to the original Northwest Road of Beijing, this Henan County also extends to Tongguan in the west, Anyang in Hanoi in the north, Nanyang and Xinyang in the south, and merges with the original Yingtian Prefecture in the east.
.”
Yelu Dashi considered it carefully, "In this way, Henan County surrounded Kaifeng from the west, north, south and east, reaching Tongguan, guarding the natural barrier of the river in the north, and guarding the Tongbai Mountain in the south, forming its barrier."
Brother Xiao Seng nodded and said to Xiao Ba Ya: "You can read it again and again."
"Yes. The east-west road of Jingdong was restructured into Qilu County, which governs Qi Prefecture and has jurisdiction over Qi Zhili Prefecture, Deng, Mi, Qing, Yan, Yi, Yun, and Ji eight prefectures..." After reading this, Xiao Ba Ya thought for a while.
Explained, "Two noble lords, this is the merger of most of the prefectures and counties in Jingdong and Donglu."
Seeing Brother Xiao Seng and Yelu Dashi nodding, Xiao Ba Ya continued to read: "Jingzhao Prefecture governs Xi'an City and has jurisdiction over six counties; Yongxing Army and other roads have set up Qinchuan County to govern Qizhou and govern Tong and Yan.
, Fu, Yi, Qing, Wei, Liang, and Shang eight states..."
Brother Xiao Seng waved his hand to stop Brother Xiao Bage from explaining, "This official knows. Why is the Song Guoguan family so anxious to cancel the Sixth Route of Shaanxi?"
Yelu Dashi replied in a deep voice: "Xiao Governor, in fact, combined with the previous reform of the Sixth Route Army in Shaanxi, it is easy to understand. Unify the command and gather strength."
"Oh, Dashi, please explain to me."
"Xiao Prefect, the Song Dynasty had previously established five border routes. In fact, they were in charge of their own affairs, and it was difficult to unify military orders. In addition, the military and political affairs were not separated, which resulted in a great waste of material and manpower. Before the Song Dynasty's military reform, the armies of the five border routes were changed to the Dingxi Army, and the military headquarters was located in
In Lanzhou, the Song Army on Xihe Road is the main force, plus the Zhuque Banner troops on the flanks; the Pingxia Army gathers the Song Army on the former Qinfeng, Jingyuan, and Huanqing Three Roads, with its military headquarters in Pingxia City; the Dingbian Army
The Song army gathered on Yanyan Road, and the military headquarters was located in Suide City..."
"After the establishment of the Northwest Armed Forces, their missions were clear and military orders were unified. Now the Shaanxi Sixth Route has been changed to Jingzhao Prefecture and Qinchuan County. All states and counties can farm and weave with peace of mind, providing continuous support to the Northwest Armed Forces."
Brother Xiao Seng nodded slowly, "The Song Kingdom already has an advantage, and it is obvious that in the next few years, the monarchs and ministers of the Song Kingdom will take advantage of this advantage to concentrate the power of the states and counties in Shaanxi to continue to squeeze and encroach on the Xia Kingdom.
"
He thought for a moment and made a gesture, like using a knife to carve up a roasted lamb at a bonfire party.
"Just like cutting meat, cut it a little at a time. When you see me, Daliao, mediating in the middle, you stop immediately; when I, Daliao, are not paying attention, you cut it again. The cycle goes on and on, and one day, Xia Guoguo will collapse on its own."
"Xiao Governor Shi Yingming! The kings and ministers of the Song Dynasty must have made this plan." Yelu Dashi agreed.
"Well, it just so happens that my Majesty, the Emperor of Daliao, doesn't want to get into trouble. If we fight in a small way, just a little bit, maybe we will succeed."
The two of them thought of one thing in their hearts. The kings and ministers of the Song Dynasty had experienced the Liao court and knew the habits of the emperor and other important ministers, so they dared to act so wantonly.
If we were Emperor Taizong Shengzong of the Liao Dynasty, how could we tolerate such provocation from the Song Dynasty?
The Song Dynasty has changed, it really has changed.
When the two of them were sighing, Brother Xiao next to them asked hesitantly: "Two noble men, do you want to continue reading?"
"read!"
"Local restructuring is as above, with pilot projects in Gyeonggi, Beijing's East and West Fourth Road and Shaanxi Province first. The rest of the prefectures and counties will continue to operate as usual for the time being."
"Temporary pilot project? Although the officials of the Song Dynasty are bold and aggressive, they also know the priorities. What kind of pilot project should be carried out temporarily?"
Brother Xiao Seng said something.
"We should learn from the experience and lessons of Wang Jinggong and Xi Ning's reforms, which were too forceful and too hasty."
Brother Xiao Seng turned around and nodded in agreement with Yelu Dashi's words.
"Two noblemen, below is the description of the official ranks of the Song Dynasty. Do you want to read on?" Xiao Ba Ya asked hesitantly.
"read!"
"...the first rank is Sangu, the Grand Master, Taifu and Taibao. The first rank is the Prince, Taishi, Taifu, Prince Taibao and Dazai; Situ, Sikou, Zhengqing of Dali and the left and right ministers Pushe are the second rank; the six ministers are
, Dali Shaoqing, the left and right censors are the second rank; Zuo Shilang, the chief envoy of each county, the inspection envoy, the military preparation envoy, the left and right deputy censors, the minister, and Kaifeng Prefecture Yin are the third rank..."
"The right servant, the standing servant of the left and right cavalry, the governor of the Jingzhao Prefecture, the Duzhi, the tax administration, the police department and other important departments of the six ministries are the third rank; the other six departments of the six ministries are the governors, and the governors of the Zhili prefectures, and the military preparations of the Zhili prefectures
Du Qian has jurisdiction, political counselor, military deputy envoy, Qiandu Yushi (prefecture censor of the county procuratorate - chief officer of the county procuratorate), and Dali Cheng (county judicial capital judge - chief officer of the county judicial tribunal) are the fourth rank.
..”
"Deputies of each department of the six ministries, all directly affiliated prefectures have the same prefecture, and the same signing of state affairs (note, the same knowing is the first deputy position, and the same signing is the ordinary deputy position), the censor (the prosecutor censor of the county prosecutor's office), Dali Tuicheng
(The judicial judge of the County Judicial Court) is the fourth grade..."
After reading this, Xiao Bage's voice became hoarse, "My noble governor, can you give me a drink of water?"
Brother Xiao Seng quickly handed over a bowl of warm tea. Brother Xiao took a few sips, moistened his throat, and continued reading. This chapter has been completed!
