Chapter 843: The Queen's Officer (Fourth Update, Thank You Mocui Party for the Reward!) )
The fourth more is sent, ask for a monthly pass!
The political hall of the Yamen of Shangshu Province in the imperial city, which used to be the center of the Tang Dynasty and the place where the prime ministers discussed politics, is a courtyard group with several courtyards in the corridor. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 In the past, when this was the center, there were many prime minister's offices, and there were also five public houses for officials.
Nowadays, the government hall has been renamed Zhongshu Menxia and moved to Zhongshu Province.
This place conveniently restored the title of Shangshu Capital Province and became the office of Shangshu Ling, Left and Right Servants, and Shangshu Left and Right Cheng.
After Li Chao took office, he intended to strengthen the office efficiency of Shangshu Province and restored the five rooms of Shangshu Province.
The five rooms are the officials' room, the cardinal's room, the soldier's room, the household room, and the torture room, which are divided into public affairs. Although these people are called officials, they are actually non-mainstream officials, but these officials are also extremely powerful because of their confidential positions.
The five rooms were originally set up in the political affairs hall, and the officials behind the hall specially assisted the prime ministers.
Nowadays, under the Zhongshu Gate of the imperial court, there are also these five rooms, and there are officials behind the court.
Li Chao took office as Shangshu Ling, but the five rooms that had been moved to Zhongshu Province were re-established, and a group of capable officials were selected as the officials behind the court. In this way, the imperial court has two five-room rooms, one under the door of the middle book, and one province of the book.
The status of the five rooms under the door of Zhongshu is naturally higher than that of Shangshu Province. After all, Zhongshu is the center, but the current status of Shangshu Province is not as good as that of Zhongshu. But Li Chao's status is not ordinary, he made a mistake to Li Shimin, and the five-room and the queen of the hall were restored.
Now in Shangshu Province, there is a Shangshu Capital Province, with five rooms and a hall back official. At the same time, he also commanded six departments, including six books, etc.
But there is still a difference between the fifth room and the sixth room.
According to Li Chao's conception, the five rooms are actually equivalent to five assistants, and the difference between the five rooms and the six departments is that one is the ministry of the imperial court, and the other is only serving Li Chao's five staff groups. The five rooms, corresponding to the six departments, are the officials behind the hall and are the heads of Li Chao's staff in each room.
Li Chao has more than five officials.
The officials of Shangshu Province are divided into two categories, one is the official of the Zhufang Hall, and the other is the official of the Wufang Gonggongtang.
The duties of the officials of each room are to inspect and review the official documents of the various businesses handled by the officials, the chief secretary, the chief clerk, and the chief officer.
The official who mentions the five-room public affairs hall is to transfer the official documents submitted by each room to do the final check-and-audit.
In terms of the distribution of duties, the back of the hall who mentions the official affairs of the five rooms is the real chief hall official. This is equivalent to Li Chao's first secretary.
The entire five rooms are actually equivalent to Li Chao's office belonging to five departments. The post-hall official of the five-room office is the section chief of Li Chao's office, and the post-official of the five-room official hall is equivalent to the director and first secretary.
In the final analysis, the fifth room is Li Chao's private staff, and the officials behind the hall are also Li Chao's secretaries.
Because these post-hall officials were not officials but officials, Li Shimin agreed with Li Chao to set up five rooms and select post-hall officials in Shangshu Province, and Li Shimin also gave Li Chao a great privilege, that is, to let him make his own subordinates.
The officials behind the hall of the five rooms, including the following officials, chief secretaries, recorders, and chief officials, are all selected and appointed by Li Chao himself.
Nowadays, there are also officials in the five rooms and the back of the hall under the Zhongshu Gate, but because they serve the center and the prime ministers, although these officials are officials, they are directly selected by the officials, and they are all experienced old officials.
In later generations, many leaders generally brought their own drivers and secretaries. For the sake of drivers and secretaries, they need reliable and easy-to-use people, and many things, secretaries and drivers play a very big role. Even in the Ming and Qing dynasties, when officials took office, they had to invite a few masters to take office by themselves, in order to also have rich experience in political affairs, compared with those officials who relied on the imperial examination and had no actual experience in government affairs, they could really help them deal with affairs.
On the other hand, the secretary is more important than the driver, which involves many things such as confidentiality.
Li Shimin generously gave Li Chao a chance to be a subordinate of his own family, and Li Chao was very grateful. Before the Tang Dynasty, the high-ranking officials of various dynasties were actually subordinate officials, and even some higher-level officials also had the power to open the government and set up subordinates.
However, since the Sui Dynasty, the central government has begun to slowly take away this power. First of all, the state assassin had no right to set up his own subordinates, and then the three divisions and three dukes could not really open the government and build teeth, and now, in addition to some guards and retinues allocated by the imperial court, as well as the private staff Qingke invited by themselves, in fact, they no longer have the power to be self-reclusive.
Even the prime minister and the secretary have no right to be subordinate to the bureaucracy, and the power taken away by the imperial court is to return the power of officials to the central government. At present, the officials of the various yamen are often selected and appointed by the yamen at the next higher level.
Li Shimin gave Li Chao the right to restore the five rooms of Shangshu Province and let Li Chao select the officials and officials of the five rooms, which was the envy of other prime ministers under the Zhongshu Sect.
The chief clerk of the fifth room is called the back officer, and the other officials are called the back officer.
Shangshu Province used to be the first yamen of the Tang Dynasty, and it was not called an idle name.
Six ministries and twenty-four divisions are all subordinate to Shangshu Province.
How can such a large yamen be led?
First of all, it is personnel, personnel is smooth, and others are also smooth. Li Chao in Shangshu Province is the chief, the second grade, and the leader of the hundred officials. One person on the left and one servant, from the second grade, is in charge of the six officials, and impeaches those who are not correct in the imperial history. One person on the left and one on the left, four products, in charge of the six officials, correcting the province, impeaching the improper behavior of the imperial history.
The Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of Households, the Ministry of Rites, and the general manager of Zuo Cheng. The Ministry of War, the Ministry of Crime, the Ministry of Industry, and the Right Cheng General.
In addition, one person from the left and right divisions, from the five grades, assisting the left and right Cheng, and one person from the outside Lang, from the six grades. In addition, there are dozens of capitals, principals, divisions, orders, secretaries, pavilion chiefs, and palms.
If you add the six departments and twenty-four divisions of the Shangshu, the waiter, the outsider, the chief and so on.
In just one Shangshu province, there are hundreds of officials with grades up and down, which is the real number one yamen of the imperial court.
It has been half a month since Shangchao took office as Shang Shuling.
In Shangshu Province, Li Chao set up a common lounge, which has floor heating, beds, sofas, chairs, and even a stove, a cooking stove, tea, snacks, and even two chefs here to make some snacks for everyone.
After work, it is always a rare pleasure to come over for a meeting, drink some tea, eat some snacks, and chat a few words among colleagues.
Everyone loved this lounge.
Because there is only one rest room, it is the same for officials and officials, but the rest room is large enough. At the beginning, there was still a clear distinction between officials and officials, and even if everyone rested here, they didn't sit together, let alone chat.
But Li Chao is an alternative.
Li Chao has his own special public house, and he works alone in the entire courtyard, with a lounge, a toilet, a toilet, a bathroom, a kitchen, and a receptionist.
But Li Chao always likes to come to this big lounge to drink tea, to have a cup of tea in the morning, to drink tea and eat snacks in the morning, to come at noon, and to drink tea and eat snacks in the afternoon.
And Li Chao came to drink tea, and every time he liked to come to the side of the officials, take the initiative to talk, and randomly get to the table every time. Everyone can't refuse, and they are not used to it at first, but gradually, everyone has become accustomed to Li Chao's active accosting behavior, and even can slowly talk about some topics.
Every day, Li Chao always had to talk to more than a dozen officials, and through this chat, Li Chao got to know a lot from the officials in Shangshu Province, and he didn't talk to the officials much in the lounge, because he would talk to different subordinates about their work every day.
After half a month of understanding, Li Chao has a relatively intuitive understanding of the current Shangshu Province.
Xiao Yu and Chen Shuda left Shangshu Province, especially when the left and right servants were vacant from then on, during the period when Wei Zheng was in charge of Shangshu Province, Shangshu Province felt a little leaderless.
The officials were not convinced by Wei Zheng, and even those officials were not convinced by Wei Zheng.
Fortunately, now that Xiao Yu and Chen Shuda are back, Wei Zheng and Wei Zheng have been transferred away, and with the arrival of Li Chao, the rights of Shangshu Province have been restored a little, which has changed the atmosphere in the province a lot.
However, there are also many cases of people floating in the yamen.
Some of the officials were not qualified, but they were inserted by the relatives and friends of some powerful people.
Recently, everyone has been very concerned about the restoration of the five rooms in Shangshu Province, and the emperor's right to Li Chao to choose the official hall and the officials.
The five rooms are more special, which is directly for the Shang Shuling, the left and right servants, the left and right servants, etc., although they are officials, but the authority in their hands is very great.
If you can become a court official, your treatment and benefits will be improved a lot, and you can even have more gifts to receive. If you can become an official in the back of the court, it will be even more unbelievable, and you will even have the opportunity to be released as a county magistrate or even a higher official in the future.
It's noon again.
Li Chao was sitting in the lounge today, but it was rare that he didn't talk to the officials with refreshments. Sitting alone at a table, Li Chao looked at these officials who came and went, and the officials and officials of Shangshu Province were all good and bad.
It's time for a review.
The capable are down, and the mediocre are eliminated.
If the competent officials stay, they can also be directly elected as the officials behind the hall and the officials behind the hall. If there is a vacancy, you can also openly recruit examiners to be selected.
As for the officials of Shangshu Province, they also have to go through a round of assessment, those who should be promoted and those who should be lowered, in short, they must make this pool of stagnant water come alive.
After drinking the cup of tea, Li Chao got up and left.
The officials in the lounge were still a little strange, why didn't Shang Shuling come over to talk to someone today.
Li Chao went directly back to his public house, and then asked the left and right servants to be called together, as well as the six Shangshu and the waiters.
Left and right servants, left and right Cheng, six Shangshu, and squire Lang Qi Zhi.
This is a matter in Shangshu Province, but there are five prime ministers who came, plus Li Chao himself, it is six. This is also the strength of Shangshu Province, although it is no longer the center of the imperial court, but in a province, it occupies six of the eleven prime ministers under the Zhongshu Sect.
Shangshu Order, Left and Right Servant Shooting, Officials Department Shangshu, Military Department Shangshu and Household Department Shangshu.
Li Chao is a prime minister, but there are five prime ministers under his control, and the prime ministers of their Shangshu Province account for more than half of the Zhongshu sect.
"I am going to carry out an internal assessment in Shangshu Province, not only to evaluate the officials, but also to evaluate the officials. The outstanding officials are elected as the officials behind the hall and the officials behind the hall, those incompetent mediocre people, those who should be lowered, those who should be dismissed! ”
The high-ranking officials of Shangshu Province who rushed over couldn't help but be surprised.
Li Chao's three fires have not been burned, and now this is finally the first fire. But this fire seems to be burning a little fiercely!
