Chapter 26: Why does Jinyin need to teach Douda (2)
After waiting for a while, Cheng Yi said to Zhang Yi: "Uncle Si, continue."
"Yes, teacher. The Ministry of Law was changed from the Ministry of Criminal Affairs, and is in charge of legal and police affairs. It is divided into police, legal affairs, prison and other departments; the Ministry of Agriculture, like the former chief minister of agriculture, is in charge of agriculture, animal husbandry and fishery, and has
There are departments for agriculture, animal husbandry, and fishery and forestry; the Ministry of Industry is in charge of the planning and construction of roads, bridges, rivers, water conservancy, and cities, and there are departments for planning, construction, and water supply.”
"The Ministry of Yu, a newly established department, is in charge of economic and industrial revitalization, including water and land transportation management, with departments such as welfare industry, commerce, mining, and transportation; the Ministry of War is in charge of mail and communications, inns, surveying, and entry-exit and border management.
There are mail, staff, security, ordnance and other departments.”
Cheng Yi and several other disciples were dumbfounded by Zhang Yi's talk. They didn't expect that he was so familiar with Tianqi's new system that he almost knew it by heart.
"Teacher, fellow seniors, we can see from the above that there are ten departments in Shangshu Province, each in charge of one aspect of political affairs, and each department is divided according to the specific authority of that aspect of political affairs. It is no longer like before, or divided into six departments, which are vague and general.
, or set up separate departments of Duzhi, Yantie, and Hubu to override other departments..."
"The local prefectures, prefectures, and counties are different from the ten ministries in the Shangshu Province. They only have twelve departments including Duzhi, Civil Affairs, Police Administration, Taxation Administration, Warehouse, Transportation, Legal Affairs, Culture and Education, Agricultural Administration, Yuanwu, and Construction.
,Cao,Bureau.Why is it different?”
Cheng Yi and several other disciples became more and more interested in Zhang Yi's speech.
"This is because some power centers have central authorities, but local areas do not, such as governing vassal states, Taichang, readings, examinations, military pay, etc. Some power centers only need to formulate decrees and policies, while local governments need to implement them in detail, such as transportation, construction, culture and education
, tax administration, warehouses, etc. Some functions are directly under the central authority, but local areas need assistance but have no right to interfere, such as mail, staff, security, ordnance, etc... and so on."
“There are so many of them, it’s dazzling. But if you think about it carefully, you can actually perform their duties. According to the provisions of the Civil Service Regulations in the National Constitution, different functional departments have different selection requirements. For example,
For the Ministry of Planning, the Audit Office, etc., university accounting majors are preferred; for the Ministry of Law, priority is given to the police and the School of Law and Political Science. In the School of Law and Political Science, you can also apply for the imperial censorship exam, or first take the exam to become a xie lülang, and after a few years you can apply for a magistrate
..."
"Xie Lulang? What is this?" Cheng Yi asked curiously.
"It seems to be a special person who is managed by the Ministry of Justice and is entrusted or designated to provide litigation consultation, agency or defense for the people. The "Ministry of Justice Dictionary" of the "Civil Service Regulations" mentions...specifically
The students don’t know either.”
"Because the first batch of students from Sungkyun University School of Law and Politics have not graduated yet, they are only told that after passing the graduation exam, they must pass the assessment and obtain the Xielulang qualification certificate before they can serve in the Ministry of Law or the Metropolitan Prosecutor's Office... What will happen?
Execution, students haven’t seen it yet.”
After listening to Zhang Yi's explanation, You Ye couldn't hold it back any longer. He frowned and said displeasedly: "I have a saying, 'Governing a big country is like cooking small delicacies.' This means that those who manage a big country should not be annoyed. If you are annoyed, people will be in chaos."
Governing by doing nothing. Nowadays, the government's governance is so complicated that the people may not be able to tolerate it."
Yang Shi shook his head and said, "It's different, it's very different. In the past, the governance of the country was vague and the people had no way to appeal. For example, a local county has a county, and the magistrate is nominally in charge of a county, and all the people and everything are under his master. How many people are there in a county?
How many trivial matters? Can a few people such as the county magistrate, county magistrate, and chief registrar take care of it? In the end, the subordinate officials are left to take care of it and harm the people."
Zhang Yi laughed at the side and said: "I definitely can't take care of it, because these officials still have to take time to travel around, recite poems and write lyrics to be elegant."
Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then they all laughed. However, Yang Shi and Li Guang laughed happily, while Cheng Yi, Shao Bowen and You Ye laughed in a daze.
"Now the responsibilities are clear. If you should go to the prosecutor's office, go to the prosecutor's office. If you need to go to the court, go to the judge. If you need to go to the county bureau, go to the bureau. At least, the powers and responsibilities are in the relevant laws.
It’s settled in black and white, if you want to dodge the argument, you have to think of an excuse.”
After listening to Yang Shi's words, You Ye still shook his head, "It's so false, and the people are so stupid and ignorant, how can they know who to go to? Are they being fooled by subordinate officials? Moreover, there are so many official positions, which are redundant and redundant. I'm afraid it will be even more unbearable."
A heavy burden."
"It's because of redundant staff, so we might as well reorganize all those who are qualified to be officials into officials. Rather than letting them stay there doing nothing and earning a white-collar salary, it's better to give him a position and let him do something practical."
Yang Shi argued.
Listening to his disciple Yang Shi arguing endlessly with You Ye, Cheng Yi felt extremely complicated.
Yang Shi was a man of profound knowledge. He was originally a disciple of his elder brother Cheng Hao. After his brother passed away, he became a disciple of his own disciple. Together with You Zuo, Lu Dalin and Xie Liangzuo, he was one of the four disciples of Cheng Hao.
What's even more rare is that he has served as a household secretary, a judicial officer in the army, a defense official, a professor, and a county magistrate in many places. They are all talents with considerable political achievements and are pragmatic and pragmatic.
Originally, he studied Neo-Confucianism intensively and had profound attainments. He was able to inherit the knowledge of himself and his brother, carry forward Neo-Confucianism, and even establish a sect.
But for more than a year, he was deeply influenced by newspapers and magazines such as "Half Moon Zatan" and "Tokyo Times". Although he has not seen many changes in Neo-Confucianism, his ideas about governing national affairs have changed greatly.
This is exactly the opposite of You Zuo. You Zuo hates newspapers and magazines such as "Ban Yue Za Tan" more and more as he reads them.
Perhaps You Zuo was good at poetry and scholarship, and could not see clearly the various shortcomings in administering government and caring for the people, and was just immersed in pragmatism such as Neo-Confucianism.
Cheng Yi suddenly thought of the official's generous praise of Fan Wenzhenggong.
After the first day of the first year of Tianqi, "Ban Yue Za Tan" Wenlin newspaper published a lengthy report on Fan Wenzhenggong, saying that he had made meritorious deeds and virtuous words, and he was praised as the first sage of the Song Dynasty.
Fan Wenzhenggong's knowledge, conduct, and political achievements are all unparalleled. He had a profound influence on the Confucian scholars of the Song Dynasty. He especially served as a role model for a large number of students from poor families.
"Be worried about the worries of the world first, and be happy after the happiness of the world." This lofty ambition of taking the world as one's own responsibility, self-cultivation and governing the country is now being vigorously promoted, combined with "the people are the foundation of the country, and the foundation is solid and the country is peaceful"
, forming a rolling new trend.
People-oriented, pragmatic, and investigating things, taken together, are the goals, attitudes, and methods often mentioned in newspapers and magazines.
Cheng Yi sensed the hidden dangers in the rolling tide. Guan Xue, Luo Xue, Shuo Xue, Shu Xue, Yuanyou Neo-Confucianism, Xining Xinxue, etc., they were ups and downs in this tide, and were slowly integrated into it. Their strengths and advantages
Being absorbed, shortcomings and flaws discarded...
Thinking of this, Cheng Yi was startled. He suddenly realized that if Luo School did not improve and "update with each passing day", it would probably die out soon, and Neo-Confucianism might also lose its inheritance.
It seems it’s time to change! This chapter has been completed!
