Father, I really don’t want to be the emperor

Chapter 386 The beginning of reorganization

In fact, during the Jiangnan Eight Kings Rebellion, Jin Yiwei's role has always been very hidden, and Ning Fan has always been in control of this line.

On the surface, it was a bloody battle between the imperial army and the Eight Kings' army, but in fact, the real consumption was the future gentry class.

If there is enough time, then Ning Fan will completely reduce the gentry class in Jiangnan to ashes bit by bit, completely destroying them, and never make a comeback.

But now time is not on the court's side, and Ning Fan must consider the cost of time.

Therefore, under Ning Fan's instructions, Yueying gave an order and the entire Jiangnan rebel group was immediately destroyed. Even the leader, King Fenyang, died suddenly and mysteriously.

The remaining princes died in the rebellion, and even their complete bodies could not be pieced together.

Overnight, the situation in the entire Jiangnan changed rapidly, and it has entered the stage of autumn leaves sweeping away!

But at this stage, Ning Fan was still a little worried about asking Chen Yuanqing to deal with it, because in Ning Fan's mind, Chen Yuanqing had always been a reckless man, and it would never work to ask a reckless man to solve Jiangnan's problems.

Ning Fan thought about it and only thought of one suitable candidate, and this person was Song Chengzhou, the governor of Tianjiang.

Zhou Qun did not have time to stay in Jiangnan for a long time, and Song Chengzhou was cunning and cunning. In Ning Fan's mind, Song Chengzhou could still be of great use.

And Ning Fan also made an important decision, that is, the seven provinces in Jiangnan established a governor to be the governor of the seven provinces, and let Song Chengzhou be in charge of the seven provinces in Jiangnan!

In addition, some talents from the Fuxing Society were selected to join Jiangnan and completely replace the original Jiangnan gentry.

"Your Majesty, have you really decided?"

Xiao Lingxi was a little worried about Ning Fan's arrangements.

Jiangnan is in chaos, but Jiangnan's reform results are fruitful. If the wrong person is chosen at this time, and the results of Jiangnan's entire reform are completely lost, that will be a burden that Ning Fan cannot bear.

Therefore, for Ning Fan, Jiangnan is the most important move. If Jiangnan does not make this move well, all the previous efforts will be wasted.

"There are too few people available, too few, and all the talents in the world are in the wilderness."

Ning Fan's face showed a look of regret for himself.

Looking at the officials in Kyoto, although there are one or two who are useful, the vast majority of them grew up in a privileged environment and are seriously separated from the ordinary people at the bottom.

Some officials can't even tell the difference between corn and sorghum, let alone what the common people eat on a daily basis.

However, the cultivation of talents does not happen overnight. Although Jinyiwei recommended a large number of top talents, Ning Fan still had doubts in his heart. After all, although these talents knew the secular etiquette, they had no knowledge of the governance of the country. He rashly let these people Succession may cause chaos in the government.

"Let Wang Tian go to Beijing to take charge of the household department!"

Ning Fan seemed to have made up his mind. As soon as he said these words, all the civil and military officials in the hall were shocked.

Because no one has heard of who this so-called Wang Tian is, let alone what his virtues and abilities are.

"Your Majesty, may I ask where this Wang Tian is from and what his background is?"

As soon as Ning Fan said this, officials immediately jumped out to oppose Ning Fan.

Ning Fan was extremely fed up with the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty. When he became emperor, he wanted to completely reform. The so-called civil and military officials were rotten to the core.

"From now on, six ministries will be restructured. The former Ministry of Household Affairs will be changed to the Ministry of Commerce, the former Ministry of Rites will be changed to the Protocol Department, the former Ministry of Industry will be changed to the Ministry of Science and Technology, and the former Ministry of Personnel will be changed to the Ministry of Personnel..."

Ning Fan mentioned a lot of reorganization in one breath, which immediately made the civil and military officials in the court speechless. Everyone looked at Ning Fan with dumbfounded eyes, thinking that Ning Fan was crazy.

"Your Majesty, the laws of our ancestors cannot be changed. What do you mean? If you change it like this, won't the whole world be in chaos?"

An official jumped out crying and protested to Ning Fan.

"From now on, all officials receiving imperial salaries must establish an assessment mechanism. If they fail the assessment, they will be dismissed and investigated."

"If you don't make decisions for the people when you are an official, why not go home and sell sweet potatoes? I support you people so that you can work for the people and this country. What have you done?"

Nowadays, Ning Fan holds great power in the entire Dakang except for the northwest, and everyone is united, so it is time for Ning Fan to officially blow the horn to these old bureaucrats.

Originally, Ning Fan wanted to use time to change everything, but now it seems that everything has become unrealistic.

After the civil and military officials retired from the court, they all seemed very depressed. They all lowered their heads and said nothing, because everyone knew that the emperor was no longer under control and had completely escaped from the prison of power.

"Shi Qian, Minister of War, please stay. I have something to tell you."

Ning Fan called Shi Qian, the Minister of War.

Ning Fan knew a little about Shi Qian, he had some abilities, and he was not close to those aristocratic families. He came from a declining aristocratic family, but in Shi Qian's generation, he relied entirely on his own strength to make a step forward. Step by step to get to where you are now.

So this time Ning Fan decided to use his time. After all, it wouldn't be a pity to keep this talent.

Shi Qian had a wry smile on his face. In fact, he, the Minister of War, did not live up to his name. Now the three major battalions in Kyoto have been completely hollowed out, and almost all the elite soldiers have been transferred to join the Jinyi Guards.

Now the Jinyiwei are the celebrities around the emperor and a sharp sword in the hands of the emperor. However, the Ministry of War has long been unworthy of its name. Externally, it cannot control the two armies of Huang Chao and Chen Yuanqing. Internally, it even orders and prohibits the three major battalions of the capital. .

"Your Excellency, Shi Qian, Minister of War, pays homage to Your Majesty."

Shi Qian knelt on the ground, kowtowed to Ning Fan three times and bowed nine times as a monarch. His face was solemn and solemn, and Ning Fan immediately felt something strange in his heart.

Ning Fan had an exquisite heart with seven orifices. From Shi Qian's expression and his behavior, he immediately guessed that Shi Qian had resentment in his heart and was protesting against himself!

"Shi Qian, get up quickly. Do you still need to show such courtesy to me? You are a high official in the imperial court. Stamping your feet will make the whole country tremble."

Ning Fan laughed and stretched out his hand to pull Shi Qian up.

"Your Majesty, please stop laughing at me. To put it bluntly, I, the Minister of War, have a false position. I can't control the three major battalions of Jin Yiwei. I can't control Huang Chao's regiment. I can't even control General Xiao Chong who is far away in the northwest. He didn’t even send me a letter, let alone write any battle report to the Ministry of War.”

Shi Qian had a bitter expression on his face. In fact, since he had been the Minister of the Ministry of War for more than two months, he felt that he had nothing to do. He would go home after clicking Mao at the Ministry of War every day and sit around at home all day long. Drink tea and read military books in your spare time...
