Thirteen Swords of Qin Shizhi's Desperate Beginning

Three provinces and six ministries.

Three Provinces: Zhongshu Province, Menxia Province, and Shangshu Province.

The so-called six ministries refer to the subordinates of Shangshu Province - the Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of Households, the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Punishment, and the Ministry of Industry.Each department governs four divisions, for a total of 24 divisions.

Three provinces and six ministries, each of which performs its duties, contains all aspects of an empire system, which is very sound, perfect, very reasonable, very convenient, and very practical.

The heads of the three provinces - Zhongshuling, Shizhong, and Shangshuling are equivalent to the prime ministers of the three princes. The power of the prime ministers is divided into three, mutually balanced, mutually coordinated, and mutually restricted, and they are only responsible for the emperor.

Among them, Shangshu Province is the highest administrative body of the country, with six departments and 24 divisions under it, responsible for handling various national affairs.

Li Changqing listed the responsibilities of the six ministries one by one, in great detail, covering all parts of the Great Qin Empire, overall planning, local and central government, and political, economic, and military culture.

Imperial examination system.

Officials are selected through examinations, facing the world and facing all schools of thought. For example, the Six Departments need legalists, Confucians, military strategists, peasants, Taoists... Professional knowledge talents.

For example, the farm law has been accurate to the leap year, and the 24 solar terms are just basic common sense. There are also sun and moon rotations, and day and night deviations, which are consistent with the accuracy of later calendars.

Not only that, the imperial examination is divided into civil examination and military examination. The military examination can recruit people with lofty ideals to serve in the court, or join the shadow guard, or join the army and so on.

In terms of literary examinations, there are child birth examinations, township examinations, general examinations, and palace examinations, which are assessed layer by layer, and the Ministry of Officials and Households is constantly audited and inspected many times to ensure that the participants are not the unyielding royal families or princes and nobles of the six eastern countries.

Of course, as long as the visitor sincerely serves his life, Ying Zheng will naturally dare to use it.

After a long time, Ying Zheng and Han Fei put down the booklet and let out a sigh of relief.

Ying Zheng clenched his fists, his blood boiled, and he clapped the case and applauded: "I wish I could call all the officials immediately and announce the equal land system, the three provinces and six ministries system, and the imperial examination system."

"Let the people of the six countries know that in my eyes, they are the same as Qin people, and I treat the world equally."

At this point, Li Changqing believes that Yingzheng has become a king, and the world is his world. He has been chasing the nobles of the six countries and conquering the people of the six countries.

It's just that Yingzheng didn't learn from it before, so he had to explore by himself, and Daqin had to explore by himself. As the first centralized feudal empire in China, Yingzheng had a hard time.

In addition, after he ascended the throne, he built the imperial mausoleum, 70 civilians a year, built the Great Wall, and millions of civilians every year; Hundreds of thousands of troops were swept away in one year.

The Chen Sheng Wu Kuang uprising is a living example.

Yingzheng was very excited, and bowed respectfully: "Such a wonderful strategy for governing the country, even if I have to pay homage to the emperor and teachers for more than a hundred, I will be willing to do so."

Li Changqing waved his hand, stopped Ying Zheng's figure who was bowing down, lifted Ying Zheng with an invisible force, looked at him, and said with a serious expression: "Mr. Shang, you don't have to do this, just promise me one condition."

Ying Zheng said loudly: "Master Emperor, please tell me, I will do my best to do it."

Li Changqing got up slowly, raised his glass and walked, looked at the sky and said: "The people are suffering. I think the most important thing for the Great Qin Empire is to recuperate and restore farming, so that the people of the world have their fields and the people of China have food to eat."

"I hope that within ten years, Mr. Shang will guard the frontier with a large army, and will not build and penetrate the Great Walls of various countries for the time being. The Great Qin Cavalry is the strongest Great Wall in the empire."

"I hope that within five years, Mr. Shang will not go to war and not conquer Baiyue."

"Five years later, the empire is recuperating, and its national strength is even stronger. It can sweep away the wolves in the Northern Desert, and many in the Western Regions. They will unify the Baiyue and bring them all into the territory of the Great Qin."

"I hope that within five years, Mr. Shang will not build the imperial mausoleum for the time being. Govern the country with the equal land system, rest and recuperate for five years, and the country will be rich, so it will be easier to build the imperial mausoleum."

"The last point." Li Changqing said loudly: "I hope that Mr. Shang will abolish the system of corvee service in different places, and the local corvee will adopt the method of serving local strong men, and you cannot serve in other places five hundred miles away."

The more Ying Zheng listened, the more admiration he felt and the more grateful his face became. He clasped his hands together and said in a loud voice: "This time, I will pay homage to the Great Qin Emperor in the name of the First Emperor."

"Each of the emperor's four requests is for the sake of the Great Qin Empire, the people of the world, and our country. I deeply remember it in my heart, and I am grateful."

"My master, please accept Ying Zheng's worship."

This time Li Changqing did not stop him, he knew that Ying Zheng must be defeated.

Han Fei let out a long sigh, feeling ashamed and said: "Brother Li has a heart for the world, and he has an unparalleled talent in the world. He is a great sage of China through the ages. Looking at Brother Li's words and deeds, and looking at Han Fei himself, I am still struggling with the relationship between Qin and Han." Divided, entangled in the enmity between Qin and Han."

"The laws of heaven and earth are not slack in execution; tricks are used to know traitors, and punishments are used to stop punishments."

Han Fei said with admiration: "It's in vain that I created quicksand, but my pattern, vision, talent, and heart are far less than one ten-thousandth of Brother Li."

Li Changqing shook his head and said, "Brother Han is humble."

"With your talents, assist Mr. Shang to reform the legal system, create a prosperous China, and benefit the world with magic. In time, you will become a legal sage."

Hearing this, Han Fei pursed his lips and said, "Brother Li's auspicious words."

Ying Zheng laughed loudly: "Hahaha, Master Di and Mr. Han Fei will be good teachers and helpful friends for Ying Zheng's life."

"Cheers to Daqin!"

Li Changqing raised his glass and said, "Cheers to Da Qin!"

Han Fei echoed, "Cheers to Daqin!"

The three raised their glasses to each other and drank it all in one gulp.

In the living room, the three of them laughed boldly from time to time, and the laughter spread to the sky for a long time.

-

Three days later, Yingzheng summoned Han Fei, Wei Liao, Li Si, Wang Wan, Feng Jie (the royal doctor), Wang Jian, Meng Wu, Wang Ben, Meng Tian and other confidantes to the Qinian Palace.

Seven days later, at the court meeting, Yingzheng publicly proposed the "equal land system", "three provinces and six ministries system", and "imperial examination system" for the first time.

As soon as the three systems came out, civil and military officials responded differently, but they were generally applauded.

Moreover, Yingzheng's prestige is extremely high, and there is no need to use iron and blood methods. The whole court unanimously agreed to implement the new law, and abolished the service system in different places, and the scope was limited to five hundred miles.

At the beginning, the old Qin people had a small area and a small country, so they could serve regardless of the distance. Now all Kyushu belongs to the Qin State, which is indeed very unreasonable.

Wang Jian, Shang Shuling.

Meng Wu, servant.

Wei Liao, Zhongshu Ling
Han Fei, Li Si, Wang Wan, Feng Jie, Wang Ben, Meng Tian and others held six important positions, ranking second in the official rank, and ranked among the top ministers.

Yingzheng passed on orders to the world, and the imperial examinations were used to select scholars. Nearly half of the 36 county governors, county magistrates, and county lieutenants were appointed, and at least half of the thousands of counties in the empire adopted the method of obtaining scholars through examinations.

People with lofty ideals all over the world, people from all schools of thought who are determined to be officials, those who are pretentious and want to show their ambitions, or those who hope to benefit one side with their life-long learning are moved and ready to participate in the scientific examination.

As soon as the land equalization system and the imperial examination system came out, it directly shook the nobles of the six eastern countries, and the local control rights of the powerful and powerful families of the seven countries in the world, shaking their ruling foundation.

Yingzheng is a man who has done things beyond gods. The huge empire runs with his personal iron will, and the changes are in full swing.

For a time, the road of Qin's governance and reform opened.

Li Changqing is very satisfied, satisfied with Yingzheng's understanding of goods, satisfied with Han Fei's transformation, and satisfied with the birth of a brand new Great Qin Empire under his influence.

As long as Yingzheng does what he promised, the rule of the Great Qin Empire will be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, the majesty of the court will be unprecedentedly high, the people will return to their hearts, and the world will be peaceful.

In the future, as long as Fusu succeeds to the throne, the first emperor becomes Emperor Wu, Fusu becomes Emperor Wen, and Qin will have some rulers, this empire may be able to inherit the fire for hundreds of years like the Han and Tang dynasties.

Li Changqing said that the world should be different because of him.

Today, he does, and he does it well.
