Emperor Liu Hong

() The newly appointed ministers, whether old or new.They all held back their energy and wanted to perform well in front of Liu Hong.

The ministers of the various ministries were in charge, and Liu Hong was in charge, so the central government department of the Government Administration Council was established very smoothly.

Compared with the smooth progress of the central and yang department, the difficulty in the local area is much greater.

The major families and powerful forces have long since kept the local management tight.Now that the system is being replaced violently and officials are added, their right to speak in the local area will definitely be damaged, which they cannot bear.

Although the system of the House of Representatives allows them, aristocratic families, to participate in local government affairs openly.It also failed to offset the rejection of the new official system by the aristocratic families.

The House of Representatives system seems to allow these aristocratic families to control local government affairs openly and aboveboard.But actually?They didn't get any cheap.

The local government affairs were divided into several parts, and the power of supervision was directly under the control of the emperor, and their aristocratic families could not intervene.Even if they wanted to threaten the censors in those places, they couldn't do it.

Those censors all work in different places and are transferred every three years.Moreover, when they reported all kinds of affairs, they all reported them in secret papers.If you are reported, you can't find anyone, so don't mention revenge.

The right to adjudicate is tantamount to being directly given to the common people.Whether he is guilty or not is decided by the temporary jury, even if they want to prosecute, they can't do it.

The jury was found on the street before the trial.Moreover, the members of the jury are not made public, and the voting is also anonymous, because they are afraid of being accused by others.Moreover, the whole process was monitored by the censor, and he was not afraid of someone playing tricks on the jury.

The rest is government affairs, which they can participate in.But the places where they can join the House of Representatives are the fundamental places of their family. They can only make the places better and better, and it is impossible to do things that destroy their foundations.

In this way, no matter how they look at it, they look like some coolies, all of whom were tricked by the emperor to work.

And the House of Representatives is not easy to control.The emperor made very detailed regulations on the candidates for the House of Representatives.There must be people from all walks of life, as well as village elders from all villages and places, and famous people from all over the place.

In this way, the power of their aristocratic families was seriously dispersed, and it caused great difficulties for them to control the House of Representatives.Even if other people are forced to give in, it is not from the heart after all, and there will be many troubles in the future.

The aristocratic families were reluctant, but the reform of the new official system was still proceeding at a leisurely pace.This is not something they can change if they don't want to.The new army in Liu Hong's hands is not a vegetarian. If they really dare to make trouble, Liu Hong will absolutely dare to deal with them.

Seeing the steady implementation of the new system, Liu Hong was very happy.The imaginary turmoil did not happen. Although those aristocratic families kept making small moves, they did not cause any major trouble after all.As long as you persist for a period of time, the reform is fully completed.Those aristocratic families are basically powerless to do harm.

Compared with the reform of the official system, Liu Hong had reached an agreement with the royal family in advance on the reform of titles, and almost everyone was looking forward to it.

As soon as the new policy was implemented, almost all of them were overcrowded, no matter if it was the place where meritorious service was exchanged or the place where scholars took the exam.People want to join this privileged class in the first place.

It's better to talk about the place of the government examination. All the people are brought into the examination room, and the exams are made according to the subjects they want to take.In other places, it is really difficult.

Like those industry associations, they are assessed with the overseers of the House of Representatives.But their exams are technical. Except for merchants who can pass directly with tax payment certificates, they have to take the exams one by one.Looking at the length of the queue outside, it is absolutely impossible for them to work hard for ten days and a half months.

Compared with the assessment of a scholar, the acquisition of a title is much simpler.If you just want to get a lord, just spend some money in exchange for some merit points.

But how can capable people only be satisfied with the title of the people? For them, of course, the higher the title, the better.

However, there is a limit to exchanging money for merit points. One person can only exchange up to [-] merit points a year.This point of merit can only make them quasi-barons.How can this meet their needs.A quasi-jue is still a people's nobility. To put it bluntly, he is a nobler commoner.According to the real nobles, there is still a big gap.

Fortunately, there are quite a few loopholes to take advantage of here. Although there is a limit to exchanging money for merit points, you can spend money to do good deeds to obtain merit points.

For example, building bridges and paving roads is meritorious. This can be done with money, but in fact it is still a matter of money.For example, there are meritorious deeds in helping disaster victims, and this ultimately has to be attributed to money.There are many loopholes like this, as long as you are willing to find them.

This loophole was intentionally left by Liu Hong, to guide the rich to be kind.In this case, if all the rich people are vying to do good deeds, how harmonious the world would be.

Not only can titles be bought with money, but the examination of knights can also be completed with money.Just like merchants, the content of the chamber of commerce assessment is quite simple, as long as you apply for a business license, and then pay taxes at the tax department, with this tax payment certificate, you can get the qualification of a scholar.Moreover, if you pay more taxes, you can also get contribution points, which can be regarded as killing two birds with one stone.

The consequence of this regulation is that the taxation agency, which is usually ignored by no one, is directly overcrowded.Those who pay taxes one by one are all rich and powerful.It is in stark contrast to the previous situation where you can pay as little as you can.

Of course, merchants are just an alternative among scholars, they just give people an opportunity.For other taxis, they all have to rely on the real test.

Both knights and knights have privileges, but Liu Hong did not give this privilege to officials for free.If officials want to have privileges, they have to join the ranks of knights or knights.

Liu Hong planned that the future imperial examinations would only be open to scholars.To participate in the imperial examination, you must have the qualifications of scholars.However, many of the current officials do not have titles, so they can only exchange for merit points or take exams.

The reform of titles and the examination of knights have almost turned into a national movement.As long as you have the ability, try to increase your privilege qualifications.This directly led to the court receiving a large amount of money.Liu Hong can proudly say that this policy of his has freed the national treasury from the plight of emptiness.

It's good that the treasury has money, and you have confidence in what you do.Although the national treasury will be under the control of Congress in the future according to the new regulations.The Government Council needs money and approval from the Congress, but this does not include the emperor.

If the emperor uses money, as long as it is used for political affairs, the Congress has no right to stop it.Therefore, now that the national treasury has money, Liu Hong can carry out his idea of ​​universal education.
