In the past few days in late May of the fifteenth year of Wanli, the officialdom of Beijing has one news a day, which is comparable to the three waves of Longmen.

First of all, Zhao Jin's stepmother died of illness, Zhao Jin asked Ding Wei for three consecutive days, the first two letters were rejected, and the third letter was finally accepted by the emperor, agreeing to Zhao Jin Ding Wei and returning to his hometown to guard the system.

Zhao Jin didn't say a word, and on the afternoon of receiving the holy will, he took the emperor's specially approved post coach and horse back to his hometown, and did not stop in Beijing for a moment. The end is a high wind and bright festival, and filial piety moves the sky.

However, in this way, there is a vacancy in the imperial history of the left capital of the Imperial Palace, and naturally it cannot be suspended for a long time. So on the second day, the holy will came down again: Shen Li, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, was reappointed as the imperial history of the left capital of the Imperial Court of the Imperial Court and took office immediately.

Since it is a reappointment, of course, there is a vacancy in the head of the household, so all the officials in Beijing are waiting for the appointment of the head of the household, and many people have guessed that this position is likely to be given to Gao Pragmatic.

Of course, there are many people who think that it is not possible. The responsibility of the household department is heavy, although Gao Pragmatic is a martial artist, but after all, he is too young, although he was already a senior official in the military department, there is Liang Menglong, a big Sima with enough qualifications, and Shi Xing, another left waiter in the military department before Gao Pragmatic, is also a person with enough qualifications.

Liang Menglong is the gold list of Jiajing for 32 years, and Shi Xing is the gold list of Jiajing for 38 years, which is enough to even enter the cabinet. Only Gao Pragmatism is a wonder: he is the gold list of Wanli for eight years.

There is a difference of 27 years between Gao Pragmatism and Liang Menglong's Chinese style, and a difference of 21 years between Gao and Liang Menglong's Chinese style - this is the gap between the dynasties! But they are all officers of the military department, serious colleagues.

People are pragmatic and have what they want, in terms of family background, background, achievements, achievements, and even financial resources, they are the first in the world. In this case, with Liang Menglong and Shi Xing, especially Liang Menglong, let Gao Pragmatic be a left squire in the military department, everyone can understand, after all, even if he really has something unreliable, then Liang Menglong will correct him.

However, if he is asked to go directly to the Great Si Nong, many people will not be able to understand - the Great Si Nong is not an ordinary position, he is in charge of the foundation of the world!

The head of the household is still in power, and he has the right to control the country's finance and economy (don't think that there was no finance in the feudal era). In the case of the Ming Dynasty, there were 91 people in the household department, and 89 people officially performed their duties. In the Ming Dynasty, among the six departments of officials, households, rites, soldiers, criminals, and workers, the officials were called heavenly officials, and the household officials were called local officials.

The other four officials, including the powerful military department Shangshu, did not have honorific titles such as "heaven, earth and people". Among the six ministries, the household department is closely arranged after the secretary in charge of the "organization and personnel cadres and civil servants" is still in charge, which shows how important the household department is.

Why?

Since there are six departments, among the six central departments, there is basically such a situation: the official department is the most respectful, and the household department is the largest; The officials are the first, and the household is the most important.

What does this mean? That is to say, in the ranking of the six central departments, namely, the Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of Households, the Ministry of Rites, the Army, the Ministry of Criminals, and the Ministry of Works, the Ministry of Officials ranks first in charge of the personnel powers such as the performance appraisal of officials throughout the country, such as promotion, dismissal, and deployment. This is because of all the things in the world, human beings are the most precious. The officials ranked first, and it was a matter of course.

The largest household department means that the household department has the largest internal organization and the largest number of personnel.

What the? Ancient officials also had an establishment?

Of course, there is, and the fixed number of personnel and posts is generally relatively strict. Due to the large number of institutions and personnel, the household department is the first of the six departments, so it is called "the largest household department".

It has its regular order in the performance, in the ranking, or in the minister's court, and generally abides by the method of "Wendong Wuxi", with the civil minister on one side and the military general on the other. In the ranks of civil servants, the secretary of the ministry should be ranked in front of the household secretary, which is one of the elements of "the ministry first".

So why do you say that "the household is the most important"? This is why "the household is the largest".

The household department is the largest because it has the heaviest responsibilities among the six departments. The officials are in charge of the officials, while the household department is actually in charge of the people; If it is said that the officials are mainly in charge of people (officials), the household department is the most important in managing affairs.

What's the matter? Event! The national economy and people's livelihood are important matters.

There were thirteen provinces in the Ming Dynasty, and the name was originally "Xingzhongshu Province". In the ninth year of Hongwu, the "Xingzhongshu Province" was abolished and changed to "Chengxuan Political Envoy Division", that is, the province was changed to a division.

Within the Ministry of Households, there are 13 departments named after each province, called the 13 Divisions, which are correspondingly responsible for the relevant business of each province.

In addition to the corresponding 13 divisions, there are many institutions in the household department. In modern language, there is also a granary of the national treasury, that is, a reserve of national and civilian resources such as grain and cotton; There is a mint, that is, a banknote printing plant; There are issuing currency centers, which are equivalent to the People's Bank of China and other institutions today.

Every function and power undertaken and possessed by the household department basically involves the national economy and the people's livelihood, so it is said that the household department has the heaviest weight among the six parts.

The department of the Ministry of Households, since the Three Kingdoms, placed the "Du Zhi Shangshu" and was in charge of finance, replacing the position and authority of the Han Dynasty Dasi Nong. In the Sui Dynasty, the "Duzhi Shangshu" was changed to "the Minbu Shangshu". In the Tang Dynasty, in order to avoid the name of Li Shimin, Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, the Ministry of Household was changed to the Ministry of Households, and the name of the Ministry of Households began from this. In the Tang Dynasty, the household department was one of the six departments, which was in charge of the country's land, household registration, taxation, financial revenue and expenditure, and its chief was called the household department Shangshu.

The history of the dynasties, the system remained unchanged, including the Ming Dynasty, until the Tatar Qing Dynasty did not change.

The head of the household department is the second of the six books, and he is in charge of the power of the household department and is the highest official of the household department. In addition to the thirteen Qing officials corresponding to the business of the thirteen provinces, the household department of the Ming Dynasty also set up four major divisions, namely the household department, the degree branch division, the gold department, and the warehouse department, which were respectively directors, and were actually the highest organs of the state finance and taxation.

As the head of the household minister, the household department is in charge of the household department, in charge of the country's land, population, finance, civil affairs, taxation, agriculture, industry and commerce, etc., and is also responsible for the printing and issuance of Daming treasure banknotes.

Because of this, the Hubu Shangshu of the Ming Dynasty is the most difficult to do among the six Shangshu, and there are not a few people with tragic endings, and the tenure is often short, and those who can serve for more than five years are not simple; It is purely rare to be able to serve for ten years or more.

All in all, this position is the person who is specifically responsible for the country's economy and the national economy and people's livelihood.

It is not only a real power, but also a great responsibility.

Of course, you wonder what kind of monster this household would be if it was placed in the afterlife?

It is a complex of the Ministry of Finance, the Ministry of Communications, the Ministry of Agriculture, the Ministry of Civil Affairs, the Ministry of Natural Resources, the Ministry of Commerce, the Audit Office, the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission, the General Administration of Customs, the State Administration of Taxation, the National Bureau of Statistics, the National Energy Administration, the National Forestry and Grassland Administration, the State Food and Material Reserves Administration, and even manages the household registration of the world.

It's almost a little G-house!

Giving such a department to a young man who is only twenty-five years old, which dynasty he changes to is amazing-not everyone can be Li Shimin, let alone everyone has a father like Li Yuan.

The officials of the Beijing division waited left and right, but did not wait for Gao Shishi to serve as the head of the household department, but first waited for Shen Shixing's request to add cabinet ministers, and the emperor's first refusal and second approval.

This is strange, the Ming Dynasty cabinet to maintain five ministers is probably the most common state, now it is five ministers, why do you have to add one more?

Don't...... The position of this cabinet minister was obtained by the Heart School in exchange for the imperial history of Zuodu?

In fact, it is no wonder that those officials who don't know the inside story think so, in fact, the emperor has played a trick here, just messing up the order, which creates a very different impression in people's hearts.

What's the difference? The focus is different.

If Gao Pragmatic's appointment is placed in front, others will think that the emperor wants to move Gao Pragmatic to this position, and several other appointments and dismissals are in the service of this purpose, so the focus of public opinion will fall on Gao Pragmatic.

Now this is different, the focus has changed to "the Heart School wants a position of elder" - the rest of the things are in the service of this matter. Then the center of public opinion will become, "Why does the Heart School have to have one more elder?" ”

As a result, all associations will unfold as a result. For example, some people think that Shen Yuanfu is "difficult to support alone" in the cabinet, and he urgently needs to find a helper to share the pressure; Some people think that the Heart School is dissatisfied with the fact that the Real School has controlled the cabinet for too long, and now it would rather give up the post of Zuodu Yushi to turn back the situation in the cabinet, after all, it has been some years since the "phase power" suppressed the "ministry power", and it is reasonable for the heart school to focus on the cabinet.

The advantage of the emperor's doing this is obvious, that is, to "relieve pressure" on Gao Pragmatic - since the focus is attracted by the "dispute between the two factions of officials", then the appointment of a "medie" household secretary is not so important, and the pressure of public opinion is of course lighter.

I have to say that Zhu Yijun's care for Gao Pragmatic is really in place.

Although the book of the household department has been vacant for a few days, it is not true that it will be a big deal immediately. The reason is very simple, there is a cabinet elder in the cabinet who is mainly responsible for managing the household department, and this person is none other than Zhang Xueyan.

Zhang Xueyan himself is a scholar of the household department, and he has been in the household department for many years, so how difficult can it be to temporarily come to the household department to manage the affairs of the ministry for a few days? Not to mention that the household department is the basic plate of the real school, and the important departments in the ministry are controlled by the officials of the real school, even if there is no Shangshu in office, Zhang Xueyan can ensure that the affairs of the household department will not have major problems at least.

As a result, except for the vacancy of the household secretary, the rest of the Dajiuqing were quickly summoned and began to push the court.

Tingtui's high pragmatism is not very clear, and he honestly stays in the Jianxinzhai Courtyard to "study". In fact, in addition to approving the reports from various parts of Beijing that had been delayed in the previous expedition, and then discussing some future plans and arrangements with Liu Xin, Gao Shishi's main energy was spent on how to arrange for the queen to go out of the palace to see a doctor.

The queen's exit from the palace is no better than that of Princess Yongning, if it is exaggerated, it can even be said that it is a hundred times more serious in nature, so there are many targets to be targeted this time.

It's not even just a dot that can be done, but also the rotation arrangement of the palace guards, the arrangement of the brocade guards, the cover along the way, the preparation of the Jianxinzhai Courtyard, etc., all of which must be carefully arranged.

Although this matter must be agreed by the emperor, the problem is that the emperor cannot casually approve the empress to see Xinzhai - the Xinzhai Courtyard is the residence of Gao Shishi's courtiers, what does it mean that you are an emperor, send the empress over? No one in this world is allowed to stare out of their eyes?

Even the emperor personally took the queen to it is unreliable, the civil officials of the Ming Dynasty can definitely find a hundred people in this matter, not to mention that Gao Pragmatic will end up without a problem, and even the emperor himself will be scolded bloody - Zhu Yijun has been scolded many times in history, is it different now because Gao Pragmatic has won a few battles?

Thinking too much, the civil officials have their own insistence. Unless Zhu Yijun plans to learn from his imperial grandfather, just be comfortable in front of him, regardless of the good name behind him, don't even think about it.

This time the court push went exceptionally smoothly, and Shen Shixing proposed Wang Xijue, who had been in the reinstatement system for a long time, as a cabinet minister, which was magically unanimously recognized in the public recommendation of the Great Jiuqing, and the emperor subsequently agreed in the palace. In the afternoon of the same day, the holy decree and official documents of King Xijue of Qifu went directly to the south by post road.

The outside world learned that everyone felt that they were really clever, and this incident made it clear that the Heart School and the Real School had made a top-level deal, and the Zuodu Yushi changed to a pavilion elder.

What the? Tobe Shangshu?

Hey, isn't it indifferent, it's just an addition to this incident - the household department was originally controlled by the real school, and now it is still controlled by the real school, isn't it? As for whether it is highly pragmatic or not, it doesn't seem to matter so much.

People are very self-persuading, and after everyone's focus has changed, self-persuasion has become "Anyway, there is Zhang Ge Lao to take care of the household department, and there will be no big thing". Even more people still think: In fact, high pragmatism is not bad, people can pull out such a behemoth as Jinghua in just over ten years, how bad can the financial management be no matter how bad it is? I only hope that he will master the household department, but he will always "compete with the people for profit" like mastering Jinghua......

In this way, the foreshadowing has been completed, and Zhu Yijun slept peacefully after listening to the reports of Jinyiwei and Dongchang that night.

The next day, the court push was held again, and this time the court push was not for the elders, but for the head of the household.

As mentioned above, the emperor sometimes directly decided the adjustment of important positions in the imperial court, and most of the promotions were held by the court to show that the appointment was in line with public opinion, above board, and impeccable.

Of course, it is not impossible for the emperor to insist on appointing him directly, but in that case, the reputation of this official will not be so clean.

With yesterday's "unanimous vote" as the foundation, today's Tingtui Xin School of course has to repay the favor, so the result is also unanimously approved - Gao Pragmatic was promoted to the head of the household department.

The news spread from Wenyuan Pavilion to the Qianqing Palace, and in less than a tea time, the approval of the celebrant came down, and Zhu approved it, so that the cabinet could draft a decree and send it to the six branches.

Just after noon, Gao Shishi received the holy decree and various documents from the cabinet, the ministry, and the six sections.

The prince and the young guard, the military department of the left squire, the assistant of the Jingying Rong government, was pragmatic, and the secretary of the household department, the governor of the cangba, and the prince and the prince. The text and prose rank is promoted from the second grade to the first grade from the first grade to the Ronglu doctor. His wife, Huang Zhiting, was promoted from Mrs. Erpin to Mrs. Yipin.

The Hubu Shangshu is only the second product, but the prince and the prince are from the first product, although this is only an additional title, but Gao Pragmatic can now be called a "official residence of the first product"!

Twenty-five years old, a product of official residence!
