Chapter 473 Dilemma
If Yang Lin refused to agree, then the more than 100,000 troops in his hands would be a big problem. It was not the military of the court at all, it was the army that Yi Feng spent money to establish and support him, a private army of more than 100,000 people, and a Hu people who defeated the fierce cavalry of the grassland repeatedly. Imagine Yi Feng's performance in this battle, the multiple attacks of the 150,000 Turks, but he remained unchanged, but in the end he did not even have a fierce battle, so he easily broke two of them. The 150,000 Turks, converted to the Great Sui army, must be at least 200,000.
Yang Jian felt a headache. Yang Lin was so unexpected. He now regretted why he didn't check this grandson carefully. He really deserved to be the one who has been wandering among the people for more than ten years and has become the leader among horse thieves.
While he was having a headache, he was also a little surprised. This grandson was indeed very powerful, and he was so amazing that he was shocked. The prince was mediocre, and King Yang Guang of Jin had the intention to seize the sect. Of course, Yang Jian knew it. He was even more and more indulging King Jin's ambitions in his heart, because he was getting more and more disappointed with Yang Yong from the bottom of his heart. He was old and began to think about the issue of the successor of the dynasty. People like Yang Yong were difficult to take on the future of the dynasty. Yang Guang's performance was very satisfying, and he was very good everywhere, and he didn't need to write poetry, essays, calligraphy and other aspects.
It is said that he was taught by famous scholars since he was a child and his talent was very famous. However, for the king, these aspects did not need to be outstanding. What he valued more was Yang Guang's ability to govern the local area. After pacifying the Southern Chen Dynasty, Yang Guang was in charge of Yangzhou. After eight years of one town, he performed very well. As soon as Chen pacified Nanchen, a great rebellion broke out in the Jiangnan area, but after Yang Guang was in charge, there was no problem in Jiangnan. The grain, cloth, silk and tea in Jiangnan made great contributions to the prosperity of the Sui Dynasty. With this, Yang Guang was qualified to inherit the Great Order and take over the Sui Dynasty.
However, Yang Guang was not without shortcomings. Yang Jian always felt that his son might have been in Jiangnan for a long time. He married Jiangnan's wife, and there were many literati from Jiangnan around him. He even lived a soft voice of Wu, which made his son feel indescribable, a taste he didn't like. He prefers the heir who is full of northern character, with cultural talent, but he doesn't need to be too outstanding. He also has military talent. This is very needed in the Sui Dynasty, which has just been unified by the world, especially in the north, there is such a powerful Turk, and in the east, there is a Goguryeo that has been eyeing covetously. The world is not peaceful. The Sui Dynasty needs a monarch who can fight. More importantly, the Sui Dynasty also needs a monarch with a long-term vision and a view of the overall situation.
It turned out that he always thought that Yang Guang was such a candidate, but now, his grandson Yang Lin seemed to be better than Yang Guang. Yang Lin also has a literary name. He has read many poems written by Yang Lin from the following, and he wrote them very well. It is not like the lewd and flashy style since the Southern and Northern Dynasties, but it has the style of Wei and Wu, and is very generous and has a high style. Compared to Wu, he is definitely better than Yang Guang. Although Yang Guang once led his army to pacify Chen and led his troops to fight the Turks, it was all in charge. However, Yang Lin actually led his troops to fight, and even rushed in front. Just talk about this battle. Although it was no longer in front of the battle, the ability to coordinate the overall situation was quite impressive.
However, Yang Guang and Yang Lin have one thing in common. He saw that both of them are good at disguising.
How should he choose? Choosing Yang Guang. Yang Lin would be a big trouble. Not only would Yang Yong be deposed, but Yang Lin also had to be deposed together, and he had to be enfeoffed to the distant southern border. Otherwise, there would be endless troubles. In comparison, it would be better to continue to maintain the current situation. Yang Yong is the crown prince and Yang Lin is the crown prince. Even if Yang Lin has heavy troops, the world will be his sooner or later, so there is no need to worry too much. However, there is also a problem. Although he made Yang Lin the crown prince, what if he made great progress in the future and Yang Yong became the emperor, what will Yang Yong change the crown prince at that time? Will there be a scandal of the prince rebellion and expelling the emperor's father?
Yang Lin, Yang Lin, you really surprised me. If I had known that he would not have made Yang Lin the crown prince so casually, but now it would be great. Yang Lin is the crown prince, so he is even more reluctant to choose his heir.
"Maybe you can consider taking Yang Lin's army back to the court and guarding others." Yang Jian thought. When he thought that the crown prince Yang Lin had an army of less than 200,000, he felt like he was on the back. Before, Yang Guang showed a little too strong sign, so he immediately took Yang Guang into the assassination case and put him under house arrest for a while. Now Yang Lin already has such a powerful private army, how can he be at ease? Yang Lin has such a large army, so it can be said that he cannot take any action on the exchange of the reserve, otherwise he will be very likely to face a rebellion. In the words, he even had to think too much, what if Yang Lin couldn't wait, what if he wanted to replace me? Yang Lin had to think like this, the more he felt uneasy he became.
He took out another memorial from the corner of Yu'an. These were some records that the grandson had discussed with him when he was in the capital. They were all top secret words. Those words had never been out of this palace, and he had never even told the queen. Later, Yang Jian recalled and recorded them himself and often read them. They were all some reform suggestions about the court's system, such as the reform of the official system, and even the tax system, military branches, etc. Some had begun to be implemented, such as the reform of the ranks and officials, and the feudal princes in the southern border, and of course most of them were just stuck on the paper of this memorial.
Yang Jian looked through and found one of them.
That was a suggestion on the abolition of the general administration at all levels. Yang Lin believed that the general administration was suitable for the beginning of the founding of the country, but if today is unified, this system is no longer suitable. Especially the system of the prince serving as the general administration is becoming increasingly unsuitable. For the long-term stability of the empire, Yi Feng proposed that the princes should be feudalized, and the same as the feudalism of the Han and Jin Dynasties, the princes should be enfeoffed to the southern border, so that they could not be sealed off the imperial court, and they could not be rebelled to the future and threatened the imperial court. After the abolition of the general administration, the simple division of the two-level divisions of prefectures and counties would also make it difficult for the imperial court to rule the central government. One level should be added to the prefectures and counties, and roads or roads or provinces could be set up above the prefectures and counties. Before, there were three-level administrations, prefectures and counties, and four-level administrations, such as those of the prefectures and counties, but whether it was three-level or four-level, it was not suitable for the current situation.
The three levels of prefectures, counties and counties have too many disadvantages. However, the system of exercising Taiwan is too large because the power and responsibility of the Secretariat Order is too large, which is extremely unfavorable to centralization. Therefore, the ideal state should be to abolish the county level and increase the Secretariat, but it cannot be the original establishment of the Secretariat. Although the imperial court should set up an institution at the Secretariat, it must prevent the rights of exercising Taiwan. Therefore, the best way is to set up a Secretariat, but it cannot set up an official with full authority and rule. The name of the Secretariat Province of exercising Taiwan, or it can be directly changed to Daohe Road. At this level, there should be no chief officials like the governor, but three departments are divided. The imperial grandson Jian
It is proposed to directly establish the Ministry of Public Security, the Criminal Censorate, and the three departments of the Commander Censorate. The Ministry of Public Security is in charge of the civil affairs and finance of a province, and the left and right governors were established; the Ministry of Public Security is established to manage the judiciary and establish the left and right criminal police; the Ministry of Public Security is established, or the Ministry of Public Security is established, which is in charge of local military and political affairs, and the left and right commander commander. The three are not subordinate to each other and are under the jurisdiction of relevant central departments. Each department has two chiefs, and can also supervise each other to avoid autocracy. In the country, about fifteen to eighteen provinces, or roads, can be established, and they can be governed by more than 300 prefectures and more than 1,000 counties in the country, reducing the burden on the central government.
When Yi Feng said these words to Yang Jian, he basically took out the settings of the Ming Dynasty. Historically, there were supervision prefectures in the Sui Dynasty, there were Taoisms in the Tang Dynasty, and there were roads in the Song Dynasty. However, the supervision prefectures and Taoisms in the Sui Dynasty and Tang Dynasty were both supervisory and were not administrative agencies. In the Song Dynasty, we were gradually divided into four departments, including commanders, Cao, Xian, and Cang, and the commanders were policing envoys in military and civil affairs; Cao was transport envoys in charge of finance and supervision; Xian was appointed as a criminal inspector, in charge of judicial prisons; Cang was appointed as a Changping envoy, in charge of Yi Cang. However, because of excessive centralization of power in the Song Dynasty, it was regarded as a temporary dispatch of central officials, and local officials with strict meaning. However, they later acted independently, which was completely different from the supervision prefectures and Taoism in the Sui Dynasty and Tang Dynasty, and was the beginning of the later local administrative decentralization system.
The roads in the Song Dynasty were still somewhat deficient compared to the envoys in the Ming Dynasty. The road-level pacification power of the Song Dynasty was in charge of both military and civil affairs, and had great power and responsibility. However, the governors in the Ming Dynasty only managed civil affairs. Undoubtedly, the three envoys in the Ming Dynasty were definitely more advanced in decentralization than the roads in the Song Dynasty.
Yang Jian set up a Grand General Office to let Princes take charge in order to avoid excessive local power and compete with the central government. However, although the prince is more trustworthy than foreign ministers, there will still be local competition with the central government. However, now the Grand General Office is the emperor's children and grandchildren, but what if the emperor is the brother of the General Officers in the future? Just like Yang Guang becomes the emperor in the future, how could the Grand General Officer Yang Lin, who holds heavy troops, be peaceful?
Yang Jian was looking out this suggestion at this time, but in fact he was already considering the solution.
The Grand General Administration was abolished, and the roads or roads were set up in the world, the Small and Medium General Administration was abolished, and the left and right commanders were set up on the road, and the Duwei Dianbing was set up in the prefectures, and the county lieutenant was set up in the county.
After thinking about the memorial for a long time, Yang Jian summoned Wang Hai.
"Transfer my will and immediately summon Yang Xiu, the chief general of Qinzhou, to the capital!"
"Abide by the order!"
Wang Hai retreated and went to Menxia Province to draft an edict, and then handed it over to the Neishi Province, and asked the Neishi Province to send Neishishe people to Qinzhou to announce the edict.
Only Yang Jian was left in Ganlu Hall. He stood up and walked to the huge map of the world hanging on the wall, and began to search in the southern border, preparing to find a feudal vassal state for King Yang Xiu of Shu. Since he wanted to withdraw the General Administration, then we should start now. First, the feudal king of Shu built the Principal state, and then the Qinzhou General Administration was abolished, and by the way, he took back the military power in Guanzhong and Longyou. Since he knew that Yang Lin was holding more than 100,000 soldiers and horses, Yang Jian was not as good as a tea, but he was not sweet anymore. (To be continued)
