Chapter 678: pro-government

Chapter 678 Pro-government

By nothing, a martial arts Su family appeared, and Chengqian stayed up all night after hearing the news.

Qin Lang finished his morning court. He first went to the Political Affairs Hall to discuss matters, and then went to the Ministry of War to sit in the office. At noon, he ate meat and mutton soup in the canteen of the Ministry of War. In the afternoon, he went to the East Palace to preside over the affairs of the East Palace.

Chengqian got impatient for waiting a long time ago, and when he saw Qin Lang, he first pulled him aside to talk.

"Teacher, have you heard?"

"What did you hear?" Qin Lang knew what he was talking about when he looked at him, but he still asked the question knowingly.

"It is said that there are rumors that the sage chose Su Secretary Cheng's daughter as my concubine for me." Chengqian, who had just undergone the coronation ceremony, now has his hair tied up, a traveling crown, and a sword on his waist. It touches a lot of heroism. His face was flushed red, and his eyes were full of tension.

"Oh, there is another matter? But His Highness has already retired, and it is normal to seek relatives and get engaged."

Chengqian said with a blushing face, "I just want to know how the Su family is doing!"

"Your Highness probably wants to know whether Miss Su is pretty?"

Qin Lang chuckled, "My fair lady, a gentleman is so good, it's normal!"

"Teacher, can you find out for me?"

Qin Lang looked at Cheng Qian's appearance, no different from those young men in later generations who had just begun to fall in love, "How about I find an opportunity for His Highness, so that His Highness can see for himself?"

"Isn't that good?"

Su Quan's elder brother, Su Xu, married Cheng Qian's aunt, Princess Nanchang, and Su Quan also adopted his son Su Gui to Su Xu as his son. Kiss.

"In this way, I will come forward and invite Su Xu and Su Quan brothers to my house as guests, and let them bring their family members. When the time comes, I will find a chance and let you see Miss Su with your own eyes. It will save you from worrying and sleepless nights. "

"I'm not worrying about it, I can't sleep day and night, I'm just curious." Cheng Qian was a little stubborn.

Qin Lang laughed, "Okay, I'll arrange this matter, Your Highness just needs to wait for the good news."

Su Xuke is also Qin Lang's uncle, so it's normal to invite him as a guest.

Qin Lang took Cheng Qian's hand and came to the Chongjiao Hall. Because Cheng Qian had already surrendered, Cheng Qian was now officially in charge of the Eastern Palace affairs, and Qin Lang, the teacher, also stepped back to assist.

Today, all the officials of the East Palace also came to the hall early.

Everyone was beaming with joy, because the emperor not only issued an edict of amnesty for the emperor, but also gave special rewards to the officials of the Eastern Palace. Baron, four or five ranks plus one rank, those who have no rank will be given viscounts, and each will be rewarded with money and silk.

I am happy to be promoted to the rank of Noble.

The crown prince is in charge, thanks!

"The crown prince Zhan is Qin Lang, and pays homage to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

Chengqian got up and stretched out his hand to help.

"Prince Gu's decree, from now on, Kaifuyi and the three Hushi generals, Zhongshumen, Pingzhangshi, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, Donggong Zhanshi, She Sikong, Prince Taishi, and Wei Guogong are not named! "

"Come here, give Wei the seat!"

Qin Lang received the courtesy and moved him a special couch.

"Sanqi often attends the prince, Zuo Shuzi, Liyang County Duke Yu Zhining, pays homage to the prince!"

"Sanqi Changshi, Chongxianguan Bachelor, Prince Zuo Shuzi Nanyang County Hou Du Zhenglun pays homage to the Prince!"

"Sanqi Changshi, Guozi Jijiu, the prince's right concubine Kong Yingda, son of Qufu County, pays homage to the prince!"

"Sanqi Changshi, the prince's right concubine, and Pengcheng county son Linghu Defen pay their respects to the prince!"

"Sanqi Changshi, Prince Shao Zhan Shi, Yuxiang county son Zhang Xuansu pays homage to the prince!"

"Sanqi Changshi, Prince Shaozhan Shi, Anping county son Li Baiyao pays homage to the prince!"

"Prince inspector Zuo Wei led, Duke Su Lie of Linqing County pays homage to the prince!"

"The prince's right guard led, Danyang County Duke Li Keshi paid a visit to the prince!"

······

All the officials of the Eastern Palace came forward to meet, the scene was grand, and the Eastern Palace team was well equipped, which could be called a complete small imperial court.

Zhanshifu, Zuochunfang, Jialing Temple, Sugeng Temple, and Pusi Temple, as well as the prince's left and right guards and other commanding six-rates, and the left and right prison gates and other non-commanding four-leading mansions.

In addition, imitating the Liu Shang of the imperial palace, he set up the three divisions and three palms of the prince's internal officials.

There are only graded officials, and there are about 2,250 people with a formal establishment. This is not counting the large number of low-level handymen and soldiers in the Eastern Palace.

Under Zuochunfang, there are six bureaus such as Sijing and Dianshan, as well as Chongxian Hall.

The greatest power possessed by the East Palace is that when the emperor is unable to govern personally due to patrolling, illness, or war, the prince will manage the government and decide military and state affairs on behalf of the emperor.

The earliest prince to supervise the country in the Tang Dynasty was Li Shimin who launched the Xuanwumen Mutiny and actually won the highest power in the Tang Dynasty.

During Li Shimin's visit to Luoyang, Li Shimin also asked Chengqian to stay in Chang'an to supervise the country.

During the period when Li Shimin was the prince supervising the country, the officials of the East Palace were the officials who handled the national government affairs. They used the official document format of the prince system to send documents to the whole country, and they listened to the government in the East Palace.

The prince issued a document called an order, not an imperial edict.

Although Li Shimin was not forced to supervise the state of Chengqian like Li Yuan, he also intentionally cultivated the East Palace. Therefore, he successively equipped the East Palace with the crown prince Sheren, and set up a new crown prince Si Yilang under Youchunfang, just like the disciples of Menxia Province. Give things.

Also set up the prince Sizhi, such as Yushitai Yushi doctor and Zhongcheng.

Even the official document format of the East Palace has detailed regulations, which are completely imitated by the central government's writing format. For all books on punishment and discussion, the crown prince will write orders, and Zhan Shi, the prince's left and right sons will sign the names, announce, play, act, and write the case. day.

In addition, the emperor also set up a special system. When the emperor was away and ordered the prince to supervise the country, the prime minister of the capital stayed in the political affairs hall or the senior officials of the three provinces and six ministries, as a rule, concurrently held the official position of the East Palace.

For example, if Li Shimin wants to go on a tour and order to inherit the Qian Dynasty to supervise the country, in addition to the prime minister who accompanied him, the high-ranking officials who stayed behind will temporarily be given a part-time job in the East Palace, such as adding the title of Prince Sanshao, or inspecting Zhan Shi and Shuzi, etc. The officials and subordinates cooperated to assist the prince.

When the crown prince supervised the country, the highest authority in the country was no longer the Zhengshitang, but the Zhengshitang and the East Palace jointly presided over the decision-making, and the Shangshu Province and the Zhan Shifu jointly made decisions.

The official documents originally approved by the emperor are all transferred to the prince for approval.

During the two years when the emperor led a hundred officials to live in Luoyang last time, although the East Palace was ordered to supervise the country, Chengqian had not yet crowned Yuanfu at that time, so it could not be regarded as a real pro-government, and the government affairs were mainly handled by the left-behind prime ministers.

From now on, Chengqian can already be in charge of the government. If the emperor goes out to inspect the prince to supervise the country again, Chengqian will really be in charge of the government. The officials of the East Palace will also be in power together with the Zhengshitang and the three provinces.

This time, Yu Zhining and other main East Palace officials were removed from their original positions of Zhongshu Shilang and Huangmen Shilang, and replaced them with the position of Sanqi Changshi. They were not relegated but promoted. The vice-officials of the two provinces, but only four ranks. The Sanqi Changshi is a third-rank official, and he directly changes the scarlet robe to the purple robe.

The job of Sanqi Changshi is to admonish mistakes, serve as consultants, and have no real power, but the emphasis is on the word "servant", which makes them become the emperor's attendants, so they are more honorable as the addition of several Eastern Palace officials.

The emperor dismissed them from their positions in the three provinces, which also allowed them to focus on their own duties in the East Palace, and specially promoted their third-rank positions. They could also serve the emperor at any time and strengthen their connection with the East Palace.

Under the emperor's will, the East Palace now has a decision-making body similar to the Zhengshitang, which consists of the prince Zhan Shi, Shao Zhan Shi, the left and right concubine, the prince Sizhi, and the prince left and right guards together to form the Sansitang.

Under normal circumstances, one Zhan Shi, two Shao Zhan Shi, two left bastards, two right bastards, and then two princes Si Zhi, one guard on the left and one on the left, a total of nine people.

Zhan Shi is equivalent to Shang Shuling, two young Zhan Shi is equivalent to left and right servants, two left concubines are equivalent to Zhongshu Ling, two right concubines are equivalent to servants, two princes Si Zhi are equivalent to Yushi Dafu, and left and right guards are equivalent to Ministers of the Ministry of War .

The entire Donggong team has more than 20,000 people, which is quite large, and there are thousands of officials.

But Qin Lang was the only one who received the special treatment of being praised and not being named, and was given a seat in the hall. The other officials, even Yu Zhining and others, did not have this treatment, and could only kneel and sit on the futon honestly.

It doesn't look like Qin Lang, the couch given is just a small couch with a few desks and tea and snacks on it.

After a long time, the meeting etiquette ended.

Sitting on it, Chengqian felt completely different from before.

But looking at the group of people below, he didn't know what to say.

"His Royal Highness, the imperial decree, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has already served, and from now on, he will take the post of Jingzhao Mu, in charge of Jingzhao's government affairs, in charge of the administration of the capital, judiciary, catching thieves, taxation, household registration and other government affairs."

The emperor's decree said that he was in charge of Yin Zhengjidian's affairs, and advised them to teach different people.

Li Shimin's meaning is very simple, so that the prince who has already taken Yuanfu has something to do, and directly hand over the entire capital to Chengqian to practice. Originally, Jing Zhaomu was Yongzhou Mu, and Li Shimin had done this job before, but he was only a remote leader, just in name .

But now Li Shimin wants Chengqian to really preside over the administrative and judicial power of Chang'an. The Jingzhao Mansion is under the jurisdiction of Chang'an and more than 20 surrounding counties with a population of one million.

This Jing Zhaomu is a local official who combines administration and justice, and is also a central official with the identity of a court official.

Jingzhao Mansion is in charge of the entire Gyeonggi area, but the focus is on Chang'an City, and because Chang'an is the imperial capital of the capital, arresting thieves, cracking down on tyrants, maintaining law and order, and ensuring peace are the top priorities.

Therefore, Jingzhao Mansion also has a special privilege. It does not have to be subject to level-by-level protests like other local governments. For example, Jingzhao Mansion has the power to directly judge and dispose. Dali Temple review.

Of course, the Jingzhao Mansion also has the power to execute the punishment of some special criminals under the order of the emperor.

This is an important position. Before Jing Zhaomu took the lead, Jing Zhaoyin was actually in charge of the government affairs, and Shaoyin was in charge of the government affairs. But now, Li Shimin directly asked the prince to personally take charge of the affairs of the Jingzhao Mansion and take charge of the administrative and judicial power of the capital.

Emperor also specially granted East Palace Crown Prince Zhan Shi Qin Lang as Jing Zhaoyin, and left concubine Yu Zhining as Shaoyin.

Directly hand over Jingzhao Mansion to Donggong for management.

First hand over 20 counties in Gyeonggi to the Crown Prince and Donggong for management, in order to train their abilities and prepare for the future control of more than 1,000 counties in the world.

"My lords, what is Gu going to do now?" Chengqian accepted the order, a little at a loss.
