My Daming New Empire

Every time Zhu Zhanji encounters something, he likes to summarize it. The first thing he came into contact with was military power, so the reform of the military is numbered with A, and economic diplomacy is numbered with B.

He had little contact with internal affairs, and his writings were numbered with C, and he did not write much.

These materials are kept by Li Liang and Liu Wan, and have not been handed over to the Advisory Department. Only when there is a matter or a policy can be brought out, will it be handed over to the Advisory Department.

After a while, Sun Lin came in with a document in a light brown paper bag. Zhu Zhanji opened it himself and handed it to Zhu Di.

Zhu Di took it, and saw the first page, which read "The Rules of Procedures of the Ming Dynasty" in large characters, and he felt a little anticipation in his heart.

(I originally wanted to add updates, but I have something to do this evening, and I was afraid that the update would not be possible, so I postponed the update until today. I will continue to work hard and try to write another [-] words to add updates before going to bed.)

Thank you Lian Lian Yu, Da Sui Zhang Degong, the rewards from people who see the lights, thank you for your support

Chapter 7 The Death of Wang Zhen

This set of rules of procedure, in fact, Zhu Zhanji copied Robert's rules of procedure 400 years later.Of course, his memory is not that good, it is impossible to copy all of them, he just copied the other party's general content.

Moreover, in the more than 100 years since its publication, Robert's Rules of Procedure have been revised eleven times, and they are no longer what they were originally. What Zhu Zhanji knows is the revised version in the 21st century.

This set of rules of procedure has been revised many times in line with its own characteristics, and it has already become the rules of procedure of governments all over the world, including major organizations and large enterprises.

Zhu Zhanji's company also implemented this set of rules of procedure, so he was deeply impressed by some of the content.

The content of Robert's rules of procedure is very detailed and all-encompassing. There are rules for the chairman who presides over the meeting, rules for the secretary of the meeting, rules for ordinary participants, rules for the presentation and expression of different opinions, and rules for debate. , and very important voting rules in different situations.

For example, some rules about motions, seconding, objections and voting are designed to avoid disputes.

In principle, no matter whether it is in the Congress, the House of Representatives, the courts, or large and small meetings, under the constraints of norms, disputes are not allowed.

What if a person disagrees with a motion?The first thing he has to think about is whether and when according to the rules he still has time to speak.

Secondly, when he expresses his disagreement, he should speak to the host of the meeting, not to the opponent who disagrees.

Back-and-forth dialogue between opposing opponents is forbidden by the rules.

This law is like a well-designed machine, which can allow various opinions to be expressed in an orderly manner, use rules to suppress the expansion of their inner self-interest, seek common ground while reserving differences, and then vote according to the rules.

This kind of rules and the designed operating procedures not only guarantee democracy, but also guarantee efficiency.

Of course, in this day and age, democracy and freedom fighters are empty words, and everything is decided by the emperor.

So in this regard, Zhu Zhanji also made some modifications to safeguard the imperial power.

The whole set of rules has several important core contents, which were completely preserved by Zhu Zhanji.

One is the principle of balance. The original law protects the rights of all kinds of people and groups, including those with a majority opinion and those with a minority opinion.

But here, it was revised by Zhu Zhanji into the principle of the emperor's mastery of balance. There is no minority obeying the majority, only the emperor's will must be implemented.

The second is the principle of debate. All decisions must be made after a well-founded debate.Everyone has the right to persuade others to accept their will through debate, but there is only an individual-to-group dialogue, and direct debate by anyone is strictly prohibited.

This is the same as lawyers in court cannot have direct dialogue, because direct dialogue is likely to cause endless quarrels.

The third is the principle of discussing things as they stand.Any topic cannot be divorced from the topic, and personal attacks that are separated from the topic itself are prohibited, and any form of insult or ridicule is prohibited.

The fourth is the processing principle.When a matter has a result, no one is allowed to verbally criticize and repeat the same old tune.Unless it is because of a legal conflict or the statute of limitations has fallen behind, a written application can be made for reconsideration.

There is not much content here, Zhu Di spent a quarter of an hour reading it roughly, then closed the information, closed his eyes and leaned on the sofa to meditate.

After a while, he opened his eyes and asked, "Zhanji, did you write this set of rules yourself?"

Zhu Zhanji nodded and said, "Apart from Li Liang and Liu Wan, Grandpa Huang is the fourth person I saw."

Zhu Di's heart was full of shock. Although this set of rules seemed a bit long-winded, taking apart one thing over and over again, it formed a set of strict logic, so that no one could take advantage of loopholes.

If the imperial court of the Ming Dynasty, the state capitals, and the village elders' associations all use this set of rules to discuss matters, Zhu Di believes that the current efficiency of the Ming Dynasty will be increased by more than several times.

He originally thought that although his grandson was a great commander in martial arts, he was a little weak in internal affairs.

Because he lacked a kind of closeness and trust in Confucianism since he was a child, this will lead to a certain degree of defects in the management of internal affairs, because the management of the entire country needs Confucianism.

But now, seeing this set of rules of procedure, he is completely relieved.

Because my grandson restricted everyone with the established rules, and no one could violate the rules, otherwise he would directly become the enemy of the royal family.

Rules... Only now did he really understand why Zhu Zhanji said that the most important thing to be an emperor is to learn to make rules.

The more rules, the more restrictions, and the current emperor who is not subject to rules can truly control the overall situation.

He suddenly felt that these ten thin sheets of paper were more important than the more than 2000 million taels of silver that Zhu Zhanji brought back.

There will always be times when the wealth is exhausted, but the establishment of rules can make the rule of the Zhu family dynasty more stable.

"Since you have this experience, why did you hide it and let me see it today?"

Zhu Zhanji was taken aback for a moment, but he didn't expect Zhu Di to beat him up now and blame him for not taking it out earlier!

But he couldn't sue for injustice, so he could only talk nonsense: "The grandson thinks that if he is not in his position, he will not seek his own affairs. There are too many officials in Ming Dynasty who like to meddle in other people's affairs. An official of the household department does not manage accounts well, but cares about other people's houses. China affairs, and use it to criticize others. An official of the Ministry of Rites, who did not do his own job well, cared about marching and fighting thousands of miles away. This is of course the responsibility of everyone in the rise and fall of the world, but such a long-term putting the cart before the horse is not good for the country and the people Do more harm than good."

Zhu Di looked at Zhu Zhanji's eyes erratically, but he didn't know that Zhu Zhanji was talking nonsense.But it is the royal rule of all dynasties to prevent future generations from contacting internal affairs.If Zhu Zhanji had brought it up a few years earlier, it might have aroused his fear.

So he didn't pursue it too much, but said with great interest: "Since this is B-019, it means that you have other plans! It's late today, and I'll have to look at them one by one after staying for a few days."

Zhu Zhanji smiled and said: "The grandson can't ask for it, as long as the grandpa doesn't blame me for talking about the government."

Having obtained the rules of procedure, Zhu Di was very happy, and stood up, still holding the rules in his hand. "In the future, I will let everyone read this law at the court meeting, and let them know how ridiculous they were before. From now on, all important affairs of the court will be governed by this set of rules. Those who violate the rules, whether they are right or wrong, must be punished first. .”

This matter was taken over by Zhu Di, and Zhu Zhanji was only happy.It is not easy to implement this set of laws.Let Zhu Di forcefully implement it now, and he will only enjoy good results in the future. Of course, it is worth being happy.

With this set of rules of procedure, at least during Zhu Di's expedition to the west and Zhu Gaochi's supervision of the country, the court would not be in a mess and inefficient.

He still doesn't know that Zhu Di didn't want Zhu Gaochi to supervise the country at all, and he was the one who was thinking about him at the beginning.

Even for this plan, he has already decided to transfer Zhu Gaochi away from Yingtian Mansion.

Zhu Di left happily, and Zhu Zhanji also looked at Liu Wan happily. "Which room do you want to sleep tonight?"

"Your Highness, Hu Liangdi reported early this morning that the menstrual event has passed, and she can go to bed."

When Zhu Zhanji came back, each concubine took turns to spend the night there according to their rank.But because of menstruation, Hu Liangdi was separated from her. Now that her menstruation is over, she naturally has to make up for it.

"Then drive to the Xuanyi Hall to see if the princess is asleep, and if not, bring it here."

After coming back for a few days, Zhu Zhanji was very busy every day, but after going to court at three o'clock in the afternoon, he still tried his best to spend time with his group of children.

There are only three men in the palace, and the others are all eunuchs and women. These children have lived in the circle of women since childhood, and have lost their masculinity.

As a father, I still have the responsibility to teach!
