Chapter 130 The imperial power does not go to the countryside?

"In addition, taking this opportunity, the administrative divisions of the road were changed to the system of the governing and envoys."

Zhao Huan narrowed his eyes and said, "The governor set up a prefecture, prefecture, county, and county town, and the town governs the village, changing the term of office of local officials from three years to five years."

Taking this opportunity, we will completely solve the disadvantage of the imperial power not going to the countryside.

Because the imperial power in ancient times did not go to the countryside, it actually had a lot to do with officials serving as officials in other places and their term of office was only three years.

Whether it is to avoid suspicion or to prevent officials from doing anything wrong locally, becoming an official in another place is naturally the only way to do it.

However, there was no Mandarin in ancient times. The so-called Mandarin was just an official official language that stayed on paper. Even in later generations, there would still be a large number of people who could not understand Mandarin?

In ancient times, when ten miles are different and hundreds of miles are different, this situation was even more obvious. In addition, the officials who had just arrived often knew nothing about the local situation, so these officials had to transfer part of their rights to the "social elites" in the official place to help them deal with the problems.

That is, officials, gentry, scholars.

Unlike officials, most officials are locals, who speak Mandarin and communicate with officials. They stay in the same yamen all year round to assist different officials in their work.

Moreover, officials have no salary in the sense of official position, so they can only support themselves through the part of the power transferred by officials.

For example: Suppose the official needs to pay 1,000 taels of taxes, because he does not understand the local situation, does not know who has money and who has no money, and he cannot speak. He can only let officials familiar with the local situation take charge.

As for how to pay the tax and silver in the future, how much money the officials will pay, and how much they can pack their own pockets, these officials will turn a blind eye, as long as the officials can pay 1,000 taels on time.

In addition, another important reason is that the term of office of officials is extremely short.

The term of office of officials is changed every three years, but in fact, the situation is that they will be transferred for two years on average. Therefore, when these officials are officials in the local area, as long as they can ensure the normal collection of taxes, and there is no turmoil, these officials are happy to turn a blind eye.

It is precisely because of this that there is a saying that the imperial power will not go to the countryside-

Even if the emperor can grasp the line from the court to the road to the prefecture, prefecture, and county, what about the county going down?

From the county to the downwards, the administrative structure from the township level to the village level is almost the same as a lawless place. It is not uncommon to implement favorable imperial decrees, treat useless ones negatively, and even distort government decrees.

Not to mention that the Song Dynasty itself was a small court system, and the existence of the pledge system greatly facilitated the lazy government of the officials and men singing, dancing and walking around brothels.

Don’t think that Zhao Huan can solve the problem of imperial power not going to the countryside by making a newspaper.

The sources of information from the people of the Song Dynasty were either heard by the storytellers or the younger son of the second son of the third son of the seventh uncle, the relative of the neighbor, and the ordinary people who could understand newspapers and buy newspapers were always a minority among the few.

After all, even those networms who have experienced the Internet baptism in later generations are idiots who are brainwashed by sluts.

In this case, true and false news are mixed together, and the government lacks control over the underlying level, which naturally leads to information asymmetry and is easily fooled.

It would be okay if the common people were led to go astray, but if those scholars were also led to go astray, they would be very fucked.

For example, the rolling and twitching patients in later generations.

What's even more fucking is that most of the patients who are scattering in later generations can only govern the country on the keyboard and cannot actually participate in government affairs. The impact caused by it is limited after all, at most it is to fool more idiots into hating the National Party.

However, these scholars in the Song Dynasty were different. These people were reserve officials of the Song Dynasty and would have many opportunities to participate in government affairs in the future and have the opportunity to come into contact with all aspects of the Song Dynasty.

Once these people are allowed to enter the court, they can truly influence the Song Dynasty, and the successor emperor will lose his links, which is the real life!

That's why Zhao Huan planned to take this opportunity to solve these problems.

Anyway, there are many other officials in the Song Dynasty now, just subdividing them down. In conjunction with the social science plan that had been started before and gradually promoted the official language, the system of the small court naturally gradually became an imperial system, and the so-called imperial power did not go to the countryside naturally became a joke.

Then Li Gang, Li Ruobing and Shen Hao discovered that after just solving a problem, the official family would immediately throw more problems. The head, which was already very painful, is now getting more painful.

"I feel more and more worried, and I feel like I'm going to lose my hair."

Shen Hao reached out to take off his official hat, grabbed his hair, and then said with a sore face: "Originally, he wanted to give the officials below a chance to fill the gap after the implementation of the four grids and eight methods, but after being told by the officials, he always felt that there were more problems."

It seems that it is very easy to say anything from the official’s mouth, but when you are really planning and implementing it, you can really worry!

Just like this change of road to the governor's office.

Change the road to the governor’s office. If you change your name, it’s all over. Should you adjust the prefectures, prefectures, counties and other subordinates?

If you add a series of problems such as the official system mentioned by the government, even if the plan is made and you want to truly implement it, you can't handle it in just one or two years!

"Fortunately, the government has to promote the whole country without slapping the nail on the head, but will first pilot it in the Gansu Provincial Administration and Envoy Department."

Li Gang's face was full of pain, and even had the urge to go to the palace and join Wuxin after cutting: "But this is the candidate for the Gansu Provincial Administration Commission..."

As soon as Li Gang finished speaking, Li Ruobing and Shen Hao fell into silence together.

According to the official's opinion, the Gansu Provincial Administration and the other paths of the Song Dynasty are obviously different. At that time, the governor is likely to be the highest executive in Gansu. How to choose this candidate will become the biggest problem now.

It is definitely not possible to just get someone over there. After all, it is a newly recovered land and a pilot project of the Song Dynasty's reform. If the person who sent it was a waste and caused a lot of messy things, wouldn't it be a big deal?

Even if we take a step back, the people sent in the past are not silly and have not caused chaos everywhere. However, as long as the Jingkang New Policy cannot be fully implemented, other parts of the Song Dynasty cannot see the benefits brought by the reform of the Gansu Provincial Administration and the General Administration Department, it is a failure.

"Qin Huizhi is quite suitable, but he is trapped in Fengshengzhou again, and it is impossible to go to Gansu."
