Chapter 794: Helpless
In addition, after this court meeting, they thought about it carefully and finally reacted.
Chu Xian and Bai Chuchen's methods were even higher than they thought.
They thought that the other party was just going to propose official reform, if so, they had many reasons to counteract and obstruct, this kind of thing had a precedent in the past, Yang Zhenqing wanted to reform the official system, why did it fail?
Even with the prestige of the Yang family at that time, it was still unsuccessful, because simply reforming the official system would not only cause backlash and confrontation, but also encounter various troubles in the actual operation process.
But this time was different.
Chu Xian's side did not directly attack the official system, but reformed the Shoufu Pavilion, and the changes in the Shoufu Pavilion seemed to have no impact on ordinary officials, but in fact, it was tantamount to 'depriving' them of a kind of administrative decision-making power at the court meeting.
In the future, the Internal Affairs Yuan and the Military Administration Yuan will all deal with all the affairs, big and small, and they will no longer be able to interfere.
After they reflected this, their faces turned white with fright, and their hands and feet were cold, and their brains were hot, so they wanted to go to the Shoufu Pavilion to reason as soon as possible, but they were pulled by reason.
They have nothing to reason with this matter, the first auxiliary cabinet is restructured, they can't intervene, and they are very smart, they have not canceled the mechanism of the court meeting, but they have set up a higher-level administrative body outside the court meeting, which is tantamount to replacing it.
Strictly speaking, they have no reason to oppose this matter at all, and if it breaks out, they will only suffer the loss.
The most terrifying thing is that once the restructuring of the Shoufu Pavilion is completed, the stalls of the Internal Affairs Yuan and the Military and Political Yuan will be set up, and there will be almost nothing to do with these officials.
Large and small affairs, will not go through the court meeting in the future, and the court meeting will be useless, just say that the official system will be restructured, and then the people will directly pass it in the Internal Affairs Yuan, they just want to oppose it, and there is nowhere to say it.
After thinking about this, these officials only felt their scalps tingle, and they were speechless one by one. It's too clever, and it's too bold, and the average person can't think of such a way.
Naturally, there are also people who are unwilling to sit idly by, and several highest-ranking officials plan to join forces and go to the Shoufu Pavilion Theory together.
It's a dying throe.
But before they went out, these officials saw a letter at the door, opened it in confusion, and their faces changed wildly, you must know that as an official, you can't always be honest, more or less, you will make some mistakes, or abuse power for personal gain, or corrupt the law.
But because it is well hidden, or because it has been a long time, no one notices, and some people can fool around and think that everything is all right.
But if you have a heart, you can still find some clues if you check carefully.
At this moment, several fourth-grade officials in Jingzhou, as well as more than a dozen fifth-grade officials, have received mysterious letterheads, which are all some wrong things they have done in the past few years.
For them, these things must not be exposed, so the moment they see these things, they are intimidated, and it doesn't matter who sent these things.
Isn't it obvious that they didn't poke it out directly, but secretly put it at the door of the house? This is a warning, and as for catching the other party, it is obviously impossible, and they don't dare.
Several opposition leaders and officials who have been restructured against the official system are meditating behind closed doors at the moment, and then made a decision to follow the trend and no longer force it, let alone take the lead in getting involved in this matter.
After all, it is useless to force some things, and now the above is obviously planning to let them go, give them a decent step down, if they don't listen, they have to make trouble unpleasantly, then they must be unlucky in the end.
In this way, the open, the dark, and the two-pronged approach, this time the restructuring of the Shoufu Pavilion was carried out quite smoothly, and the internal affairs office in the city on Chu Xian's side also said that these things were handled very properly, and when things were on the right track, Bai Chuchen and they were relaxed.
The detailed restructuring plan has been approved by the first auxiliary cabinet, and the next step is to realize it step by step, in an orderly and gradual manner.
The most powerful thing about this plan is to set the framework first, and then even if some strategy is formulated that causes the power of a high-ranking official to be damaged, they have no other way but to comply. It's like boiling a frog in warm water, you don't necessarily have to make an immediate strategy, step by step, slowly, sometimes it will be more effective.
Even when it comes to the immortal officials of the first auxiliary pavilion level, it is the same, and they can only be followed.
Within the Shoufu Pavilion, the positions belong to the redivision, some immortal officials have lost power, and some have been strengthened, and the upper echelons are still like this, let alone the officials below.
A few months later, the restructured Shoufu Pavilion began to play a role, and the power of the Imperial Council was directly reduced by 90%, although the system of the Imperial Council still existed in name, but the actual value was already minimal.
Almost all the administrative power was transferred to the Interior Yuan of the First Auxiliary Cabinet, where the number of people was not large, and there were not as many as the hundreds of officials at the court, because the number was small, and they were all selected high-level officials with excellent foresight, so they had to act more efficiently.
What used to be discussed for days, or even tens of days, can now be done in just one day, and the efficiency has improved dramatically, and the number of people is small, and the benefits involved are few, so there are fewer obstacles.
The law for the reform of the official system was also passed smoothly in the House of the Interior, and if this decree affecting many officials had been held at the Imperial Council, it was not known how many obstacles would have been encountered, but in the House of the Interior, the results were quickly discussed and directly implemented.
At this time, those officials who thought that Chu Xian was just staring at the official system woke up like a dream, and suddenly realized that the reform of the official system at the beginning was just a bait, and what people really wanted to move was the redistribution of the entire administrative power.
I have to say that this hand is too clever, even in the Shoufu Pavilion, many immortal officials are thinking about Chu Xian's series of methods, and what they don't understand only feels that Chu Xian is mysterious and unpredictable, and what they want to understand is that they are admiring the five-body casting.
In a quiet place in Jingzhou, Qin Yuanmou, the general of the golden armor, is playing chess with the jade general Run Boran, both of them are the gods of the Holy Dynasty, and they are naturally very close on weekdays, and it is common to play chess and drink tea.
"Brother Run, I've been very idle lately. Qin Yuanmou said with a smile, but Run Boran stared at the chessboard without looking up, but nodded in agreement: "Since the division of the Internal Affairs Yuan and the Military Affairs Yuan, you and I don't need to worry about cumbersome internal affairs, of course, it is much more leisurely than before." ”
Qin Yuanmou smiled, made a move, and said at the same time: "Could it be that you feel a little lost?" After all, the power in the past was much greater than now, and now, it is impossible for us to interfere in internal affairs." ”
Run Boran nodded: "If you want to say no, it's fake, and I feel a little unhappy in my heart, but after thinking about this matter, I know that this matter is beneficial to the Holy Dynasty, and if you want to do the thing of streamlining officials, if you don't set an example from above, how can you be convinced below? This is also the reason why the previous few reforms have failed, the top does not move, only the bottom moves, no one will be happy." It's good this time, at least you and I can have time to play chess and chat, and we also have time to study and practice martial arts. ”
Run Boran said this very seriously, and it can be seen that he said what he thought in his heart.
"Yes, I think so too, but I'm still a little unhappy in my heart, Chu Xian, this kid doesn't know what to do, he even dares to do this kind of thing, and fortunately everyone didn't make a fuss about this matter, otherwise, I'm afraid there will be a big mess." Qin Yuanmou said.
Although he said this, it could be heard that he was not really angry, not only was he not angry, but he also admired Chu Xian very much.
"This matter, Xiao Yu's first seat must also be recognized, otherwise it is impossible to pass, at present, the internal affairs and military and political courts are newly established, and it will take a while to see, if there is any chaos during this time, Chu Xian's side is likely to be targeted, or use the topic to play, in addition, he is too sharp during this time, although Xiao Yu's first seat did not say anything, but if there are other thoughts, it will be a great disadvantage to Chu Xian. After Run Boran finished speaking, Qin Yuanmou shook his head: "Xiao Yu's first seat is not such a villain, Brother Run, you think too much." ”
At this time, somewhere in Jingzhou, there was a sudden fluctuation, Qin Yuanmou was stunned, and looked at one place suspiciously, and Run Boran was the same, and then the two of them showed a look of horror and glanced at each other.
"This breath is ......"
"Wouldn't it, the one from the Yang family is still alive? I thought he was ...... a long time ago."
Run Boran threw the chess pieces on the chessboard at the moment, got up and flew up, Qin Yuanmou was the same, the two rushed over there together, and the direction they went in was the Yang family.
In fact, at this moment, not only these two, but also in Jingzhou, the Great Situ Da Sima, including the Supreme Sect Master, and even Xiao Yu Taishi, were also alarmed, and then rushed over together.
And outside an extremely secluded courtyard in the depths of the Yang family, Yang Zhenqing and other Yang family children were already kneeling on the ground with surprise and joy on their faces.
Obviously, it's welcoming a big guy out.
In this courtyard, there is obviously something else, and it is also a forbidden place for the Yang family, many juniors of the Yang family have never seen the door of this courtyard open from birth to the exhaustion of longevity, and no one dares to enter.
They only knew that the person in it was said to be the residence of an ancestor of the Yang family.
The Holy Dynasty has lasted for thousands of years, and naturally there are some official families that have been passed down, but there are almost no that can really last for thousands of years.
The official mechanism of the Holy Dynasty, on the core issue, is very clear, officials can recommend, but the descendants of close relatives are not allowed, that is to say, after the official, you can become an official if you want to, but you can't rely on the power of the family at the beginning.
