Almighty System Great Master Qin

Chapter 114 Three Provinces and Six Ministries

"Master Jiang" Xiao Hong came to the young mansion where Jiang Xiu worked, and saw Jiang Xiu sitting in the office.

"Mr. Wu'an!" Jiang Xiu hurriedly stood up and saluted. Although Jiang Xiu was a high-ranking Jiuqing, his status was still inferior to Xiao Hong's.

"Master Jiang, why do you need to be so polite?" Xiao Hong stepped forward to help Jiang Xiu up, and said, "My lord, there is something I would like to ask Mr. Jiang to do today."

"What's the matter with Mr. Wu An, as long as I, Jiang Xiu, can do it, I will definitely not refuse." Jiang Xiu asked Xiao Hong to sit down and said.

"Actually, it's not a big deal. Your Majesty agreed with me to set up the Daqin Royal Academy. I'm sure Mr. Jiang must have heard about it. This time, I want to ask Mr. Jiang to borrow some craftsmen."

"For such a trivial matter, why do you need Mr. Wu An to go there personally? Just send someone to come." Borrowing such a small matter as a craftsman, Jiang Xiu felt that there was no need for Mr. Wu An to go there in person.

"This is what it should be. After all, Master Jiang has been troubled many times before, and this time the number of people I want to borrow is huge. I wonder if Master Jiang will agree." Xiao Hong intends to borrow thousands of craftsmen this time.

"I don't know how many people Lord Wu An intends to borrow?" During this period of time, Jiang Xiuxiu was repairing some damaged palaces in Xianyang Palace, and sent out a lot of craftsmen, because winter is coming, and these damaged palaces must Fix it before coming, otherwise, if the heavy snow falls and collapses these palaces, something big will happen.

"1000 people, is there any?" Xiao Hong felt that [-] craftsmen were enough, and the rest could be recruited from nearby villages.After all, you can't say that craftsmen must be used to transport cement and bricks, right? That would be too extravagant and not in line with Xiao Hong's values.

"Mr. Wu An, please wait a moment, let the officials check it out." Jiang Xiu picked up the roster and looked through it for a long time, and said, "There is no problem with a thousand craftsmen. I don't know when Lord Wu An will need it?"

"It's just a few days, I will send Wang Chen over at that time." Xiao Hong planned to start the construction of the academy after the manufacture of cement and red bricks became normal.

"No problem, Lord Wu An will just send someone over." Jiang Xiu closed the roster.

"That's why I would like to thank Mr. Jiang." Xiao Hong cupped his hands.

"Mr. Wu An is being polite, there is no need to say thank you for some trivial matters." Jiang Xiu also cupped his hands.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty," a Xuanwu guard hurried over and said.

"What's the matter, shouting so much?" Xiao Hong glanced at Jiang Xiu apologetically, and scolded.

"Your Majesty has left the city to go to the brick factory," the Xuanwu guard said hastily.

"Why did Your Majesty go to the brick factory all of a sudden, Mr. Jiang, I have something important to do, so I will take my leave."

"Wu An Jun walk slowly" Jiang Xiu sent Xiao Hong out of the Shaofu.

"Your Majesty's news is really well-informed." Sitting in the carriage, Xiao Hong immediately knew that His Majesty must have known about the cement, otherwise he would not have left the palace so eagerly.

Xiao Hong's carriage was less than a hundred meters away, and they all saw groups of forbidden soldiers and scattered Xuanwu guards.

"It's Mr. Wu An's carriage, let it go!" The imperial guards guarding the intersection hastily moved out of the way, allowing Xiao Hong's carriage to drive into the brick factory.

"Where's Your Majesty?" Xiao Hong jumped off the carriage and saw Wang Chen standing beside him.

"Go back to your majesty, Your Majesty is going to look at the cement." Wang Chen said with a bow.

"Take me there"

"Here..." Xiao Hong followed Wang Chen to the road paved with cement, and saw Qin Shihuang squatting on the ground touching the cement with his hands.

"I see your majesty, I don't know your majesty is coming, I am far away to welcome you, please forgive me." Xiao Hong bowed and saluted.

"Mr. Wu'an is here." Qin Shihuang got up with the support of his servant, and said, "Mr. Wu'an, is this the magic technique of turning mud into stone?"

"Returning to Your Majesty, this is not some kind of fairy art, just like I used saltpeter to make ice before, this is also science." Xiao Hong pointed to the cement on the ground and said: "Your Majesty, I call this kind of cement, and use pulverized coal to make ice. ash, limestone and gypsum, it only needs to wait until the cement dries to become as solid as stone.”

"Isn't this really a fairy art?" Qin Shihuang didn't believe it. Isn't this a fairy art that can turn mud into stone?I don't read much, so don't lie to me!

"Your Majesty, it's really not, this is ordinary science. I originally planned to let the cement dry naturally, but since your majesty is here, I will let it dry quickly." Xiao Hong took out the unused cement from the side. Put some on your hands and use Reiki to quickly absorb the moisture inside.

At this time, everyone saw that the cement in Xiao Hong's hand, which was still mushy, dried up at a speed that was visible to the naked eye, and soon turned into a gray stone.

"Your Majesty, please take a look, after all the water in the cement dries up, it will look like this." Xiao Hong handed the cement stone to Qin Shihuang.

"It's amazing. I didn't expect mud to turn into stone. Did Mr. Wu An come from your hometown?" Qin Shihuang asked while playing with the cement stone in his hand.

"Yes, Your Majesty, the method of making cement also comes from the hometown of your subjects. And the most important thing, Your Majesty, is that this kind of thing is easy to make, and it is tougher than many stones after it dries up. It can also be kept for a hundred years. It can be used in the future. Using cement to lay the straights and runs can greatly reduce the cost, and it can also reduce the money spent on future maintenance.”

That's right, Xiao Hong made cement not only for building schools, but more importantly, it can be used to lay straight and fast roads.

As the ancestor of the infrastructure madman, under the rule of Qin Shihuang, Daqin built several straight roads and galloping roads, and the construction of these straight roads and galloping roads consumed a lot of people's power and national power, which caused the people all over the world to complain. one.

But now with cement, these problems can be solved a lot, at least there is no need to recruit a large number of civilian husbands and Xing disciples as before, and Xiao Hong has no intention of letting the court undertake the construction of these straight roads, but It is intended to sell the construction rights of these straight roads to these merchants by means of bidding.

"Well, Mr. Wu'an can always bring me surprises. Daqin can get help from Mr. Qin, the world is very fortunate." Qin Shihuang was very excited after hearing Xiao Hong's introduction. For Qin Shihuang, he didn't want to spend a lot of national power to build straight roads , but the territory of the Great Qin Dynasty is too large. If there is no straight way, how can Qin Shihuang know the affairs of the world while sitting in the palace.

And with the straight road, no matter where Xianyang sends troops, they can rush to every corner of Daqin in the shortest time, which also strengthens Qin Shihuang's control over the world.

"Your Majesty, didn't I say that I would make it easier for you in the future, that you don't need to review so many memorials, and you won't lose control of Daqin? This method has already been thought of by you." Xiao Hong decided to revise Daqin's system a few days ago. The work pressure of Qin Shihuang was relieved.

"Oh, come and listen to Mr. Wu'an!" Qin Shihuang didn't want to review so many memorials in one day, but he couldn't help it. Everything in the world needs Qin Shihuang to decide, whether it is Feng Quji, Li Si or other Jiuqing, they have no How much power to decide a matter, even if it is a small matter, still needs to be written to Qin Shihuang and let Qin Shihuang make the decision.

"Your Majesty, the minister's solution is to change the current system of three lords and nine ministers, and use the system of three provinces and six ministries." Xiao Hong handed over the system of three provinces and six ministries that he wrote a few days ago to Qin Shihuang.

"Your Majesty, please stay away from everyone." What they said next was not something they could hear.

"You all retreat!" Qin Shihuang asked everyone to retreat more than ten meters away.

"Your Majesty, although the current system of Sangong and Jiuqing can strengthen His Majesty's control over Daqin, His Majesty is the one who decides all affairs in the world, no matter how big or small. But the memorials you review every day, Your Majesty, will become larger and larger as Daqin's territory grows. It keeps increasing, and the Sangong and Jiuqing are busy every day, but their busyness is only to keep writing memorials, but they have no real help for the development of Daqin."

Xiao Hong observed Qin Shihuang's expression for a while, and said: "The system of three provinces and six departments proposed by the minister can not only strengthen your majesty's control over the court, but also reduce your majesty's work pressure, so that your majesty does not have to correct so many memorials every day. Free up more time to practice"

Qin Shihuang probably looked at the system book of the three provinces and six departments in his hand, and said: "Mr. Wu'an, are the three provinces and six departments really as you said?" system, and established a set of central government agencies suitable for the needs of a feudal unified country.

And this system is indeed several times better than the system implemented by any previous vassal state, and more importantly, it strengthens the centralization of power in a true sense, allowing Qin Shihuang's decree to travel smoothly in any land of the Great Qin.

"Your Majesty, please trust me. It's about the future of Daqin, and I won't talk nonsense. Your Majesty, do you still remember what I told you about the Tang Dynasty that destroyed more than [-] countries? They implemented the system of three provinces and six ministries. This system not only improves administrative efficiency, but also strengthens the ruling power of the central government.” Xiao Hong used the example of the Tang Dynasty to illustrate the problem better.

"Tang!" Qin Shihuang naturally remembered this dynasty that was made prosperous by Lord Wu An, and Xiao Hong had always admired this Tang very much, so he could see that it was very powerful.

"But this matter is of great importance after all. Although Lord Wu An explained the benefits of the three provinces and six ministries, this matter cannot be decided so easily. The court will make a decision after discussing with the ministers tomorrow morning, and Lord Wu An will attend the court tomorrow morning on time." Although no one dared to refute Qin Shihuang's words in Daqin, the scope involved in changing the Sangong Jiuqing into three provinces and six ministries was too large, and Qin Shihuang could not be arbitrary.

"I understand." Xiao Hong understands what Qin Shihuang's concerns are. The changes in the three provinces and six ministries did not destroy everyone's power, but gave the ministers real power. From this point of view, Xiao Hong believes that Meng Yi and others will not object , especially Feng Quji, he will definitely stand up and support Xiao Hong.

Don't look at Feng Quji as Prime Minister You, but his status is just a bit higher than Li Si's, and Li Si's real power is not as great as Li Si's.However, the Three Provinces and Six Ministries System divided Li Si's power, and part of the power was handed over to Feng Quji.
