For another example, the Ministry of Industry plans to build an official road between several state capitals this year. Fools all know that it is best for the official road to go around more places on their own territory. However, the Ministry of Household Affairs has only allocated so much money.
The order I received was to build these 500 miles of official roads. Among the several state capitals, who had more and who had less, and how to distribute them? How often was there not a huge quarrel?
For another example, a flood occurred in a certain province and spread to several states and counties. This state and county will definitely need support for disaster relief. The imperial court ordered the Ministry of Household Affairs to allocate part of it, and several brother states and counties in the province will raise part of it themselves. So how can this part be raised by themselves?
Share? Who pays more and who pays less?
These are almost all conflicts between the central and local governments.
The core of the conflict lies in inconsistent interests.
For the imperial court, the core starting point for the promulgation of any policy must be to look at the overall situation of the country and make overall arrangements. Some places will suffer losses and some places will take advantage. These are unavoidable things, but for local officials, this kind of
Gains and losses will be directly reflected in one's political performance.
Even if this official does not want to be promoted and does not care about the evaluation of the staff, which local official does not have intricate entanglements in the local area? Landlords, aristocrats, squire clans, these forces are entangled with each other, forming a huge interest group, the court's
The order may have harmed the interests of these interest groups. So, are the officials in charge of the local government dedicated to executing the court's orders for the public good, or do they care more about the feelings between sworn brothers who are usually called brothers?
Perhaps there is a person who is dedicated to the public good and insists on carrying out the orders of the court, but once he does so, the official will find that his orders are almost impossible to carry out in the local area, because his orders also need his subordinates to execute them. Once those subordinates choose
'Get close to the sworn brothers who are usually brothers', then he will be completely ignored, and then there will be a snowflake-like impeachment. In the final outcome, just being transferred away is considered a strong background, and most people will fall into the trap
In the end, or simply go to jail.
Many factors lead to the inevitable confrontation between the imperial court and local governments in many aspects. This situation is not uncommon in every dynasty. It can even be said that it has always happened. It just depends on the strength of this confrontation.
When the central government is weak, local governments are strong, and when the central government is strong, local governments are weak. However, the confrontation between them has always existed and has never been eliminated.
This kind of struggle, even to a certain extent, caused more trouble than Zhao Xuanji and gave Li Chen more headaches.
But for Li Chen, the real priority now is the issue of the vassal king.
Once the news of Prince Ning's death spreads, there will inevitably be a vassal siege against him.
These princes will not be willing to surrender.
So Zhao Xuanji has a chance to become king.
It can be said that Zhao Xuanji's title of king was an important sign that Li Chen changed his main opponent from Zhao Xuanji to the vassal king. It was also one of the most important "combination punches".
Therefore, at this juncture, Li Chen and Zhao Xuanji can be said to have turned enemies into friends.
In the political arena, there are no permanent enemies.
Zhao Xuanji clearly felt what Li Chen meant.
He pondered for a moment, and then said with a smile: "When I first learned about the conditions that Your Highness promised to me, I was very excited. In the more than 360 years since the founding of the Qin Dynasty, except for a group of old brothers who fought with Taizu during the founding of the country,
