After Yan Yunke, the two prime ministers and the twenty governors entered the chamber one after another, saluted, and sat down on the chairs that had been arranged.
Then, the six books also arrived, and everyone sat down on their chairs and waited.
Bi Ziyan glanced at Sun Chengzong and the others, followed forward, and sat down on the empty five chairs.
Bi Ziyan sat in the first place, glanced at everyone, opened the codex on the table, looked at it, raised his head and said: "Ladies and gentlemen, this 'new deal' has been delayed for a long time, we must make a decision today!"
” Everyone was awe-struck and leaned over slightly.
This Bi Ge Lao was so 'heavy' at the beginning, and he must have been even more imposing.
"There are still three questions, one is the task schedule proposed by the 'New Deal', do you still think it is too short?"
Bi Ziyan raised his head, his eyes swept over the faces of Fu Changzong, Zhou Yingqiu, Fang Kongzhi, Li Banghua, Zhao Pinglan and others, his voice was flat and majestic.
Sun Chengzong and others, the six Shangshu, all looked to the left.
Governors, many people consciously or unconsciously looked at Fu Changzong and Zhou Yingqiu.
The two of them were expressionless and did not speak, and not long after, Gui, the governor of the state, Wang Sanshan, leaned over and said, "Bi Ge Lao, Gui.
The terrain of the prefecture is complicated, the population is wrong, and now it is ten rooms and nine empty, robbers are rampant, the people are turbulent, and the officials are panicked.
Not to mention measuring acres of land and registering the population, just talking about disaster relief, stabilizing the people's feelings is not enough, the imperial treasury is empty, the disaster relief money and food are decreasing day by day, and the lower officials are really powerless......"
This is also the difficulty of a good woman to cook without rice, and the difficulty of reality.
As soon as his voice fell, Zhao Pinglan continued, "Bi Ge Lao, I am wide.
It is not said that the east is vast and sparsely populated, but it is also a vast area, but the governor's yamen has just been built, and the authority is insufficient. ” Jiang Dejing hesitated, and then said, "Cloud.
The situation in the south is complex and changeable, and the lower officials still cannot fully control the state capital, let alone the counties below.
If the dignity of a county wants to act, it cannot do without the support of the squire, if it is to measure the acres of land, register the population, and then draw up new taxes......
This thing doesn't work. ” Three governors objected in a row, and the atmosphere in the chamber fell into its usual depression again.
Bi Ziyan sat on a high place, the expressions of these people were under his eyes, these people were not 'factions', they were telling the truth, so Bi Ziyan was not angry.
His gaze turned to Fu Changzong and Zhou Yingqiu, these two people in the imperial court, representing most of the power of the imperial court, and outside Beijing, they also represented most of the governors, their words were very important, and even 'a word to decide', was very important.
Fu Changzong took a deep breath, looked at the inconspicuous inner supervisor in the corner, and said loudly: "Elder Bige, the imperial court has the major policies of the imperial court, and the local government has local plans. ” This is actually the second problem, the cabinet has collected too much power from the local government, and everything has to be reported and controlled.
At the same time, in terms of the 'New Deal', the cabinet has the leading power, and the local power is quite small, and even the governor of a province feels that it cannot be used.
Fu Changzong seems to be asking for power, but in fact, he still hopes that the cabinet will give in to the previous one.
These words are all clichés these days, Bi Ziyan's expression was calm, his eyes looked at Zhou Yingqiu, and said, "Lord Zhou, do you have anything to say?"
” Zhou Yingqiu leaned over and said, "My lord, the lower officials hope that the money and grain in and out of the local government and the imperial court will be more relaxed, and the local governments will have more power to dispose of it." ” Financial power is one of the most important powers of local officials, and it is also an important means for power to operate and gain prestige, second only to the power to appoint officials.
The progress requirements of the 'New Deal', the scope of powers, and financial power are the focus of controversy between the cabinet and the governors, and there is no way to retreat and there is no way to compromise.
When a group of governors saw Fu Changzong, Zhou Yingqiu opened his mouth for the first time, his expression was awe-inspiring, his eyes wandered on the faces of Fu Changzong, Bi Ziyan and others, and there was a trace of apprehension in his heart.
Today started very differently, with a 'decisive battle' posture.
Everyone knows that no matter which side 'wins' and which side 'loses', it will be a 'tragic' ending.
Bi Ziyan saw Fu Changzong, Zhou Yingqiu spoke, his expression gradually became indifferent, he was silent for a while, and suddenly said, "This official has a plan to set up the Prime Minister's Yamen in the five major regions of the southeast, northwest, and central regions, and the Prime Minister's Yamen will deal with the 'New Deal' and other issues in a unified manner, and the corresponding powers will also be expanded, and the cabinet will grant more powers......"
Everyone was stunned when they heard it, even if it was Sun Chengzong, Sun Chuanting was surprised, because Bi Ziyan had not said it before.
Fu Changzong, Zhou Yingqiu and a group of people were even more surprised, they didn't expect that Bi Ziyan would suddenly have such an idea, and they didn't know how to deal with it for a while.
Bi Ziyan's expression was indifferent, but his heart was very shaken.
This idea suddenly came out of his eyes when he looked at Zhou Yingqiu and Fu Changzong.
If the establishment of the 'Five Prime Ministers' Yamen' and the jurisdiction of the five regions of the Ming Dynasty can not only vigorously promote the further promotion of the 'New Deal', but also strengthen the cabinet's control over the localities, greatly establish the prestige and power of the cabinet, and most importantly, break through the current predicament in one fell swoop!
Everything is still under the control of the cabinet, and the loss of power at the local level has been compensated, which is simply a stroke of genius!
Sun Chengzong thought for a moment, his eyes lit up.
This is indeed a good solution, because this 'Prime Minister's Yamen' is a temporary institution, and in the future, the 'New Deal' can be revoked at any time after the completion of the 'New Deal' or after the immediate difficulties, so that the local government can also be satisfied without compromising the Cabinet's leadership of the 'New Deal'!
A great way to get the best of both worlds!
Sun Chuanting thought about it in his heart, and also nodded secretly.
He looked at Bi Ziyan and realized in his heart that this was mostly inspired by the war zone.
Bi Ziyan took up the momentum of 'Shoufu', and said in a categorical tone: "The Prime Minister's Yamen has more power than the Governor's Yamen, and at the same time concentrates the advantages of multiple provinces to make up for each other, which can effectively and timely respond to the disaster situation and deal with the 'New Deal' issue, do you have anything else to add?"
” This is not the first time that the term 'prime minister' has appeared, it is similar to 'chincha', and the power is huge, far exceeding that of a provincial governor.
The so-called 'Prime Minister's Yamen' appeared in recent years, mainly to concentrate energy and resources from all quarters to deal with the affairs of Liaodong, and later the 'Six Provinces Prime Minister's Yamen' was also to deal with the affairs of the six provinces of Shaanxi, Sichuan, Gansu, and Guizhou.

The governor looked at each other and didn't know how to react.
The Prime Minister's Yamen must be above the governor, and the governor of the jurisdiction must obey his orders, although he is inevitably uncomfortable, he cannot find enough excuses to refute at this time.
Fu Changzong and Zhou Yingqiu glanced at each other, and suddenly said in unison: "The lower officials agree." ” The influence of these two people is too amazing, as soon as he opened his mouth, Li Banghua continued: "The lower officials agree.
"He's Shaanxi.
The governor of the west was originally a subordinate of Fu Changzong, and he already had the prime minister's yamen, so it had no impact on him.
"The lower officials agree."
Lin Rirui said.
He's Gan.
The governor of Su is also a subordinate of the 'yamen of the governor of the six provinces'.
"The lower officials agree."
Wang Sanshan said.
He is expensive.
The governor of the state was also under Fu Changzong.
"The lower officials agree."
Mountain.
Eastern Governor Huang Chengyuan said.
He has a close relationship with Zhou Yingqiu.
"The lower officials agree."
Mountain.
Lu Daqi, the governor of the West, said that he was originally a servant of the Ministry of Officials and a subordinate of Zhou Yingqiu.
"The lower officials agree."
Nanzhili, that is, Jiang.
Governor Su Fang Kongzhi said that he was recommended by Zhou Yingqiu.
"The lower officials agree."
The same sentence appeared one after another, and there were more than a dozen governors in one breath, and the prime minister responded.
Some of the other 'neutral' governors followed suit, and in less than a cup of tea, almost all of them 'approved'.
The six Shangshu glanced at each other, and at the same time raised their hands and said, "Xiaguan agrees." ” Sun Chengzong, King Jing, Wang Qiaonian, Sun Chuanting and others looked at each other, and also leaned over and said, "We have no objection." ” Bi Ziyan looked at the ministers bowing their heads, and an indescribable feeling welled up in his heart, and he felt that he only had the feeling of 'Shoufu' now, and his face was even slightly red with excitement.
The corners of his face moved, forcing this weird feeling, and nodded: "Okay, the only thing left now is the issue of 'progress', this official allows you to set your own time, plan, and wait for this official to consult the emperor, appoint the prime ministers of various places, and then make the final decision, but there are still objections?"
” In fact, at this time, there was no longer any way for these governors to 'argue', and everyone kept looking at each other, and finally had to say: "The lower officials obey the order." ”
