Chapter 200: Ascension to the Foundation and Establishment of the Nation (2)
In fact, the temporary eunuch system formulated by Wang Yanhua and Han Zanzhou is indeed pretty good, and it is only limited to the affairs inside the palace, and there is no power to interfere with the financial financial finance. Therefore Such a large palace requires enough personnel to manage, and it is not too much to expand about 1,000 eunuchs.
In the Ming Dynasty, the source of eunuchs was mainly two channels. One was to choose from captives and criminals. After being cleaned, they entered the palace as a difference. The other was to register by themselves.
However, most eunuchs enter the palace through the latter channel. Because in the Ming Dynasty, eunuchs are still a more promising occupation. My wife can marry. It can be said that except for not being able to pass on to the generation, everything is of course, if you mix your head in the palace, you can pass one from the nephew to the elderly and send it to the elderly. Palace, or send a boy in his own house into the palace to clean his body, at least there are some other reasons for the family to live, and there are some other reasons. He has to go to the palace to be an eunuch. The most famous nine thousand -year -old Wei The father -in -law is a glorious member of the eunuchs by himself
By this time, the eunuch system has existed in China for thousands of years. These situations have been in the dynasties. The ministers' requirements for the emperor are strictly forbidden to interfere with the eunuchs. No one would suggest to the court that the eunuch system, including the current Nanjing government, believes that there is a righteous thing for eunuchs. It is a reasonable thing
But only after Shang Yi, such a long time ago, Shang Yi had already thought about it. Once he was called the emperor, the first few things to be determined, the abolition of the eunuch system is The descendants of their grandchildren are also prohibited from the eunuchs
Shang Yi did not have much attention to the eunuchs, and the eunuchs of the Ming Dynasty were not all bad guys. Among them, a considerable number of eunuchs had good results. For example After the Xiangxiang, the ignorance and cruel system shows that the Chinese emperor is afraid of bringing a green hat, and by the way of harming others to achieve effective control of the harem, in Shang Yi, if there is no cost of breeding a horse, the cost of breeding a horse Just don't find so many women
Therefore, the eunuch system compiled by Wang Yanhua and Han Zan Zhou Jingxin, Shang Yi did not look at it at all, and torn it directly, and at the same time recruited members of the cabinet, officially told them that since then, they have completely canceled the eunuch system. Until they are old, but the eunuchs who are not allowed to be recruited or introduced. After these eunuchs die, the eunuch system will be completely ended.
In the future, the management and work in the palace will be established to pay responsibility for the internal affairs government. Bringing into the palace, we still pay their responsibilities, but they have all been promoted to the level
Although Shang Yi's daily life is not luxurious, after all, his status is different, and his family is a big business. There are more than 300 people in the palace. The management staff alone include general managers, general managers, stewards, deacons, etc.
Level 5 of being in charge, etc.
There are more than fifty people in total, and each wife and concubine is also surrounded by more than a dozen family members, men and women, young and old. These are just servants of the palace, not counting guards. Of course, given Shang Yi's status
To me, this is considered the lowest standard.
Therefore, all the people from the palace were brought into the palace. Firstly, they could enrich the number of people in the palace. Secondly, they were all acquaintances, so they could be easily summoned. Most of them were the serving family members around the wives and concubines, so most of them followed.
They have been together for several years and have become accustomed to each other.
Of course, even if everyone from the palace is brought into the palace, compared to the palace, it is still vast and sparsely populated, and there are still large areas of empty space. Shang Yi ordered that all the vacant palaces and locations be temporarily closed.
After that, the number of people in the palace will increase, and then gradually open up. The guards in the palace are the same as the palace. Soldiers from the Chinese army who are good at becoming monks, are politically qualified, and have roots in the Miao Guard will form a guard corps to protect them.
palace security
However, after hearing Shang Yi's decision, several cabinet members were shocked, because no one had expected this.
Although it is said that Shang Yi did not appoint eunuchs after he became king, Shang Yi Bi Jing had not officially proclaimed himself emperor at that time. Everyone thought that this was just a gesture made by Shang Yi under the circumstances to express that he did not
He has no ambition to become emperor, or he does not reuse eunuchs, or he still maintains an attitude of being close to officials and subjects.
Some people would guess that after Shang Yi became emperor, he would really abolish the eunuch system. However, after being shocked, everyone felt sincere respect for Shang Yi. After all, this was the best way to completely cut off eunuchs from interfering in politics.
, at the same time, some people also believe that this alone is enough for Shang Yi to surpass all the sages and emperors in the past dynasties.
Of course, now we just have to communicate with a few cabinet members and officially announce to the world that the eunuch system will be completely abolished. We still have to wait until Shang Yi becomes emperor before it can be announced in the form of an official national document.
In addition to the eunuch system, another important issue to be resolved before proclaiming the emperor is the name of the country and the reign.
In fact, many officials have put forward some suggestions for the country name. Some people suggested using "Xia" as the country name. Although this is a country name that has been used before, it is nothing. The previous Jin Dynasty, the later Zhou Dynasty,
The Song Dynasty had used the country name before, and because "Huaxia" is the ancient name of China, and the Xia Dynasty was also the first dynasty with explicit records in Chinese history, it is also very appropriate to use "Xia" as the country name.
Of course, most people still prefer to use the same country name. The suggested words include "Rui", "An", "Hua", etc., as well as "Tai" and "De". Some people even suggested that since China is a kingdom of heaven,
, then it is better to use "天" as the country's name, the emperor
The emperor could be called the emperor, but he could see the black line on Shang Yi's face, so there were too many reign names, even "Kangxi" and "Qianlong", etc., actually came out, which scared Shang Yi into a cold sweat.
Is it possible that any of these officials have traveled through time?
However, officials who have been with Shang Yi for a long time know that Shang Yi likes the word "Zhonghua" very much. In almost all official documents, the word "Zhonghua" is used to refer to China, and even the name of the army is also used.
Although this word is said to be Shang Yi's intention to downplay the concept of the Ming Dynasty, it also shows Shang Yi's preference for this word, because there are many words that can refer to China in Chinese vocabulary, so it is very likely that the name of the country was
It’s the word “China”
Although according to the traditional concept, the country title always has one character, because of Chinese tradition, the fewer characters used in an honorific, the better. One-character king is more noble than two-character king. Of course, after death, the more characters used, the better.
Okay, but the ministers all know Shang Yi's character. He is definitely not someone who likes to follow the tradition.
He was a traditional person, and had already done many things that were against tradition, such as the eunuch system that had just been abolished, and earlier, adding natural subjects to the imperial examination system, etc. Of course, Shang Yi's changes to these traditions,
This is considered a positive development, not a random act.
The use of one character for two characters in the country's name is actually not a big problem. There is no need to worry about it. To put it to the extreme, this country belongs to Shang Yi. Therefore, it is not Shang Yi who has the final say in the name of the country.
Just like naming your own son, even if you call him Cat or Dog, it is a family matter and no one else has the right to interfere.
Sure enough, after reading a lot of country names proposed by the ministers, Shang Yi threw them all aside, and officially designated the country name as "Zhonghua", the full name is the Chinese Empire, and the abbreviation is China. At the same time, Shang Yi
The era name has also been decided, and the first era name of the dynasty will be called "Hong Xian"
In fact, after Shang Yi decided on the name of the country, he was also shocked. Isn't it the same name as the country name used by Yuan Datou for his restoration? But if he wanted to use the name of the country, he could only call it this way, "People"
The words "republic" cannot be added now.
However, since he was the first to register Lao Yuan's national title, Shang Yi simply did not do anything. He even grabbed his reign title. Anyway, Lao Yuan would not be born until more than two hundred years later. Of course, in
It is hard to say whether there will be Lao Yuan in this time and space.
However, the era name "Hong Xian" is indeed very appropriate. In another time and space, Yuan Datou decided on this era name, and it did have the meaning of "promoting the Constitution", indicating that although he became emperor, he would not follow the inheritance system.
path, but advocated constitutionalism. Of course, no one knows whether Lao Yuan really thought this way in his heart, but the reign name "Hongxian" is very consistent with Shang Yi's founding philosophy, and Shang Yi was originally prepared to adopt it.
constitutional monarchy
As for the concept of constitutional governance, all cabinet ministers now understand it, so they all think that this reign name is very appropriate. Of course, it also means that Shang Yi can call it whatever he likes.
Of course, the name of the year and the country have only been determined. They can only be officially used when Shang Yi holds the ceremony to proclaim himself emperor. But this does not mean that the matter is over. You can wait until you start proclaiming emperor. In fact, the real headache for Shang Yi
, still to come, that is the establishment of the Ancestral Temple and the canonization of ancestors
