Datang: Li Shimin begged me to rebel

Chapter 998 His Highness's First Government Order

After reading this document, Wei Zheng immediately took it for granted that these Buddhist monks obviously used the word temple to confuse the public, and it should be banned.As for the remaining words, courtyard and nunnery are mostly used in Buddhism, and palace is more useful for some minority sects. Of course, palace also has the title of Daming Palace.

Generally speaking, it refers to tall buildings, and Taoism worships the ancestors of the gods of heaven and earth, which are also called palaces.

As for temples, they are also mixed with official, folk, and Taoist, and are mostly used to worship gods and ancestors, such as Taimiao.

View is generally a Taoist vocabulary, and those who call XX are all Taoist.

These terms have little influence on Datang, because temples and palaces, people already have concepts in their minds, but this temple is the most susceptible.

After reading it, Wei Zheng thought for a while, and took the document directly to the two officials from Shang Shu Sheng and Zhong Shu Sheng, and naturally showed them the document.

For this document, the two thought about it and did not object.

There are many Buddhist temples in the Tang Dynasty, but the rise of Buddhist temples has not reached the point of fanaticism, especially after the Tang Dynasty solved the food problem of the people after His Royal Highness King Qin, the number of people who believed in Buddhist temples became less and less, and instead, the people worshiped His Highness There are more people with His Majesty's Longevity Tablet.

The people are very simple, whoever can bring them benefits and let them live, they will naturally trust whoever they are.

Therefore, there are not many Buddhist temples in the Tang Dynasty now, and their reputation is not obvious. Although there are in the whole world, they have not been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. If it is changed at this time, it is indeed too late.

In addition to stipulating this, this document also stipulates the levels of imperial departments.

The highest institutions are naturally the three provinces, and the three provinces are ministerial institutions, and below the ministerial level are temple and departmental institutions.Temple refers to an independent department under the Sixth Ministry of the former Shangshu Province. For example, Dali Temple is affiliated to the Ministry of Punishment, but it is only responsible for investigating cases, which is equivalent to the court of later generations.

A temple represents a single department under a multifunctional department.

In addition, there are divisions under each department, which means to be in charge, which is actually a position.It is the person who presides over a certain job, such as the examination department, which is the position held by the officials in the Ministry of Officials who are responsible for evaluating the performance of officials.

In fact, the reason why the Si became a department more than 1000 years later was because the Si replaced the temple. It used to be a temple, but the temple was occupied by a certain sect, so it was replaced by a division.

But now that Datang still has time to change, these things naturally don't need to be the same as those of later generations.

Therefore, the position of the secretary is equivalent to the official in charge of a temple, and it is also equivalent to the department-level cadres of later generations.

At present, the positions of the Tang Dynasty are basically based on this level. The top ones are naturally the officials of the three provinces. This is the state-level cadres of later generations. Level cadres are equal to the division level and the lowest section level in later generations.

As for the grade, Li Ke is naturally too lazy to change it. The officials of the Ministry of Officials should be in charge of it. The grade represents a person's monthly money level, which is different from his position. Of course, it is generally linked.

The ranks of officials in the Tang Dynasty total nine ranks and eighteen ranks. In fact, the distribution of these systems is quite complete. If it does not work in the future, the nine ranks are now divided into positive and subordinate.

If the number of officials increases in the future, in order to increase the treatment of officials, it is really impossible to directly make it into three levels: positive, subordinate, and the next level. Isn't this 27 levels?

After seeing Fang Xuanling and Changsun Wuji, the three called several chief officials to discuss again.

"That's fine, just implement the names of the national state reforms proposed by His Highness last time." Fang Xuanling made another opinion.

"can."

The state reform is to revoke the original Tao. After all, for the future Tang Dynasty, the volume of Tao is a bit too large.

The highest local administrative level in Datang is the state. Anyway, the original Dao of Datang was also a temporary unit. Many Dao did not have the highest executive, and a Dao was composed of governors of many states.

Now Datang has been changed to a total of six administrative levels: prefecture (province), prefecture (city), city (prefecture-level city), county, township/town, and village.

As for some cities and regions that were originally named after the state, it would be good to add the government or other titles to represent his administrative level.

For example, Yizhou and Yangzhou are officially called Yizhou Prefecture, but Yangzhou Prefecture is fine.

As for the name of Dazhou, Li Ke directly copied the division and naming of provincial units in later generations.

As for whether it sounds good or bad, whether it is awkward or not is not within the scope of Li Ke's consideration. To put it bluntly, awkwardness is Li Ke's own awkwardness. For example, the name of the big state in Yizhou is called Chuanshu.

As for whether Chuanshu Prefecture sounds good or not, it sounds good and is used to it if it is called 1000 years.

After the agreement was made, the three provinces began to make the imperial edict directly. This time, even His Majesty did not need to notify, and only needed to make a backup copy when it was time.Because now His Royal Highness's decree can be directly implemented.

Indeed, a lot of work has been saved.

Although Li Ke proposed the reform of the name of Daozhou and the division of jurisdictions long ago, they have not been directly implemented because the division of administrative districts has not yet been completed.

The maps in his warehouse have accurate maps of various provinces, cities and other jurisdictions. It is not a small project to change and reprint these.

It is impossible for Li Ke to be so meticulous that he changed all the names. It's not impossible. Anyway, the time in the warehouse is almost not lost, but isn't he even more tired?Just tired outside, but also tired inside the warehouse?crazy?

So he just took out the blank topographical map, kept the upper boundary and the locations of several big cities where the Great Tang existed, and handed over the rest to the local staff to fill in.

After the filling is completed, return to Chang'an, and start printing again.

It is estimated that this work will take at least two or three years to complete, especially in Sichuan, Sichuan, Guizhou and Guizhou. Some people in the mountains are migrating to the nearest plains under the influence of the Tang government.

The areas of those villages and towns must be changed.

So you only need to have a rough division.

This time, the map division of the states just happened to be completed, and the three provinces happened to be notified directly.

For the Buddhists all over the Tang Dynasty at this moment... well... there is no way to resist, or to say that they have begun to change their names silently.The first ones to change their names were naturally the names of various Buddhist temples in Chang'an, all of which were changed to courtyards.

There is no way, the Buddhists in the courtyard use more, so it is possible to really change it to a certain view?Does that mean that Buddhism has completely belonged to Taoism?Of course it can't be used like this.As for the word palace, everyone skipped it by default.

Although the Tang court did not restrict it, what if it is restricted in the future?Are you not happy for yourself?

Most of the Buddhist temples choose courtyards, and a few choose temples. As for nunneries, this is not a big problem.

But what I have to say is that when the Datang Weekly spread the news to the world, after the members of the public security forces located in various places told the news to the people in the villages they were in charge of, many people really just realized it.

They really didn't know that the temple was originally an imperial government office, and they always thought that the temple was a Buddhist temple.

Many people have indeed murmured before, how could a yamen like Dali Temple learn their names from Buddhist temples, and this time it can be regarded as a thorough popularization of knowledge for all the people of the Tang Dynasty.

In such an atmosphere, Li Ke gave these generals lessons while arranging internship positions for them.
