Iron Dynasty

...Establish the Department of Foreign Affairs, and the Department of Foreign Affairs will be responsible for handling the relations between Feng Guo and countries other than the Great Yu Kingdom. In addition, the prefectures and yamen will separate the arrests, and the prefectures and counties will set up the supervisors of the guard stations to cooperate with the Supervision Yuan in the enforcement of the law. , at the same time responsible for arresting prisoners and handling civil disputes.”

While Xiao Ming was talking, Pang Yukun distributed the printed officials and government affairs system to the officials.

Other vassal kings have their own official system, but Qingzhou and other six prefectures have not had such a regular official and government system because of the war and the lack of personnel.

However, although Xiao Ming has now officially established his own management system, at this time this system is still very different from the official system of the Great Yu Kingdom.

Many officials were already at a loss when they listened to it, so when they got the booklet, they immediately read it carefully, and they basically understood the new government system by comparing what Xiao Ming said.

In general, since then, the things that officials are responsible for have been refined, and there are fewer things they need to manage, which is a good thing for them.

Of course, there are also bad things, that is, from now on, their rights will be dispersed, and there is no way to grab them.

After talking for half an hour, Xiao Ming finally made it clear about the government affairs and the official system. Then he looked at the officials, Do you have any questions?

Zhan Xingchang asked puzzled at this time: His Royal Highness, since there are nine ministers in the cabinet, who are the remaining eight people besides Pang Shoufu?

Speaking of this, Xiao Ming and Pang Yukun looked at each other and smiled. Pang Yukun said, The remaining eight people are not available yet, but His Highness is looking for candidates, you all have a chance.

When everyone heard the words, there was a commotion and whispered.

Yang Chengye asked, Your Highness, since the Sixth Division has been established, what role does this cabinet have?

The Sixth Council of Government Affairs will first be reviewed by the cabinet, and the ministers of the cabinet will reach a consensus before they can issue a decision and send it to the king for approval. It can be said that the cabinet is directly responsible to the king. Xiao Ming said loudly.

The establishment of the cabinet was not made by Xiao Ming on a whim, but because the government affairs system of the Great Yu Kingdom was too backward, and was gradually unable to apply to today's world development.

That's why he moved the cabinet system to his own fief. In his opinion, the Ming Dynasty's cabinet system was very close to a constitutional monarchy, but unlike a constitutional monarchy, the cabinet system maintained Xiao Ming's absolute power.

At the same time, Xiao Ming is from modern times, and he will not reuse eunuchs at all, nor will he let eunuchs dictatorship, and he will not panic. Therefore, the cabinet system in his hands will be very suitable for the management of feudal countries, and it will also avoid the emergence of powers and ministers with dictatorship. Happening.

After all, there are nine people in the cabinet. Even if he does not ask about government affairs, the decree can only be implemented if two-thirds of the people pass it. Although Pang Yukun is the chief assistant of the cabinet, it does not mean that he has the greatest power, but that he is responsible for the operation of the cabinet.

Yang Chengye nodded when he heard the words, and now he understands, now it is like dividing the rights of Pang Yukun to nine people.

Other officials also have their own thoughts, so doesn't this mean that they will become the third batch of officials?

After all, there are six divisions under the cabinet ministers, and they are under the six divisions.

Chang Yuchun said: It's just that, Your Highness, there are so many official positions, and Feng Guo doesn't have so many officials to fill up.

Xiao Ming and Pang Yukun had long been concerned about this issue, and he said: This king and Pang Shoufu have discussed, Bowen College has trained officials for so long, and now it is time for these students to pass the exam and enter the officialdom. Of course, you can all take the exam, you all have administrative experience, and this king will give you extra consideration.

As soon as Xiao Ming's voice fell, the officials immediately showed excited expressions. Xiao Ming said this means that they also have the opportunity to enter the cabinet and the sixth division. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Zhan Xingchang and other seven governors couldn't help but be very ambitious at this time. They were already in high positions. Now that Xiao Ming has re-established an administrative system, they naturally want to do more.

Moreover, as Xiao Ming said, they have experience in handling government affairs and are more suitable to serve as chief officials in the current cabinet and six divisions.

They don't want to lose out to the guys at Bowen College.

His Royal Highness. The officials said excitedly. They were looking forward to the coming of the exam. After all, they were all exam masters, and although they were not at Bowen College, they all had government books given by Xiao Ming.

In addition to the cabinet and the Sixth Division, the major changes in government affairs this time are the Control Yuan.

Because this was the beginning of Xiao Ming's independence of the judiciary, officials in the fiefs would be supervised by the officials of the Overwatch Council, from the doctors down to the people, to rule the country according to the law.

However, like the cabinet, this organization is only a prototype at present, and there is no specific organization and personnel, which also needs Xiao Ming to fill.

The discussion started at noon and lasted until the afternoon. Some institutions had no staff for the time being and could only wait to make up after the exam, while some institutions could be divided directly, such as the guard station planned by Xiao Ming.

Now the guard station will be directly spun off from the government office, and will be governed by the guard department. Regardless of this matter and the magistrates of each county, the focus will be on the construction of people's livelihood.

Since this government reform involves a lot and almost overturned the old system, Xiao Ming and Pang Yukun gave detailed answers to the questions raised by officials.

In the evening, Xiao Ming set up a banquet for the officials to have a meal together. This time, the officials were not in the mood to eat, and they were all thinking about the impact of this political change on themselves.

However, this meeting only put forward the reform program. As for the specific reform measures, it needs to be realized step by step. Xiao Ming is like giving these officials a preventive shot in advance, so that they can be psychologically prepared.

After the banquet in the palace was over, officials from various states and counties thanked them and left, and they went back to carefully evaluate the matter.

Your Highness, what happened? So many officials gathered in Qingzhou. Fei Yue'er came out of the bedroom after the officials left.

Xiao Ming felt relieved after he was busy with today's affairs, so he told Fei Yue'er about the government reform.

The Cabinet, the Overwatch Council, the Department of Guards, His Highness's reforms are really ingenious. Fei Yue said with a smile, It's just that His Highness's fiefs will need a large number of officials to replenish.

Xiao Ming nodded and said, That's right, now this king is worrying about this matter. There are so many official gaps all at once, and this time it's going to be a headache.

Just as he was talking, Xiao Ming suddenly remembered something, and he said to Fei Yue'er, The Fei family's scholarly family, the fourth and third princes, may be able to help this king solve his urgent needs.
