Ministry of Industry.

If my understanding is not wrong, the Ministry of Works should be one of the three provinces and six ministries established by China since ancient times in the court. But why did the Guanshan Mountains say that the three provinces and six ministries appear?

Chunting smiled.

He looked at my questioning eyes, stood up and walked out calmly.

"Go and notify Xingkong first. After finishing the work, I will talk to you about the work department."

Although I was confused, I could tell the importance of it. Since I was just informing Xingkong to start repairing the Water and Land Palace tomorrow, there was no need for everyone to go together. So Chunting called me and Ling Xuan, and the three of them went straight to Xingkong's abbot's room.

Before we walked far, we arrived at the Xingkong. Ling Xuan reached out and knocked on the door, while whispering to Xingkong inside the house.

"Master, is it easy for you to speak now?"

Ling Xuan had just finished asking, and the door was pushed open from the inside out. Xingkong still looked like he was kind-hearted and asked as he looked at Chunting.

"Amitabha, these days the donor meditated with the monks in the temple every day, but the donor Ling Xuan hadn't seen each other for several days. Today, I suddenly came to see me. Could it be that the donor was ready?"

Ling Xuan took a step forward, with a smile on his face and told Xingkong where he was going in the past few days.

"That's right, the master is indeed extremely intelligent. I naturally cannot do anything about this repair. I went to contact the construction worker these days, and now all the staff are ready. If the master has no objection, he can start repairing the temple tomorrow."

When Xingkong heard this, his face was full of kindness and smile. He picked his beard with his hands and was very satisfied with his words.

"I will naturally not have any objection. The donor has great merits. After the repair, I will definitely hang the longevity plaque engraved with the donor's names next to the main hall, and lead all the monks in the temple to pray devoutly for the donor every day, wishing the donor a long life without worries!"

I heard that there is a merit monument at the entrance of some temples, which carve the names of those who have contributed to the temple and those who have donated to the temple. This is actually a great merit.

But after Xingkong said, we can actually hang a sign of immortality in the main hall and enjoy the daily chanting of scriptures and Buddha for us. This is the highest courtesy that Huanghua Temple can give. I am really sorry.

Before we could refuse, Xingkong went to the Main Hall by himself. It seemed that he was ready to discuss the longevity card with the monks in the temple...

The three of us looked at each other, looking at Xingkong who was gradually moving away and didn't know what to do.

"It's all fate. Although our purpose is to hide the statue, we are really planning to rebuild the temple for this Huanghua Temple and reshape the golden body. Let's take the kindness of Xingkong for the sake of Xingkong."

Chunting was the first to react and spoke in a daze. It seemed that he had never had such an experience.

"Actually, it's good. No matter what the Changsheng Card is, as long as Huanghua Temple has no doubt about our actions and is determined to think that we are just coming here to repair our wishes, then it will be much more convenient for us to act."

Ling Xuan also figured out the details and spoke with a smile.

"Okay, since that's the case, don't study it. Anyway, Worker Chen will be planning to start work tomorrow. Should you explain to me about the work department?"

Seeing all this, I was ready and only had to start work tomorrow, I finally couldn't help but be curious and began to ask the two of them about what Mr. Chen said about the Ministry of Works.

Chunting heard my question and looked at Ling Xuan and smiled at him, his words mysteriously.

"You, you can't help it anymore. Let's go and talk together when you go back, so that no one will be curious. I will say it again."

Since Chunting said so, I had to endure the curiosity in my heart and the three of them returned to his room together.

When I arrived at Chunting's room, I found that everyone was there and no one left first. So Chunting sat down and looked at me asking slowly, with the thoughtful look in my eyes again.

"How much do you know about the Ministry of Works?"

Seeing this, I knew that he did not intend to tell me directly, so I began to think in my mind about the specific reason why the so-called Ministry of Works was.

The Ministry of Industry is an organization that manages engineering affairs. It is responsible for the construction of civil engineering, the use of utensils and harbors, the provisions of 100 million yuan for the official industries, including civil engineering, water conservancy projects, machine manufacturing projects, mining and smelting, textiles and other official industries, and is in charge of part of the financial currency and unified weights and measures.

Chunting heard my answer and had a smile on his face.

"Look, you said that the Ministry of Works is responsible for civil engineering construction. Since Chen Gong is good at civil engineering, what's wrong with his subordinates calling the Ministry of Works?"

I looked at him angrily, knowing that he was deliberately teasing me. Since the Ministry of Works came from the Three Provinces and Six Ministry, before he could continue speaking, I talked about the past and present of the Three Provinces and Six Ministry.

The so-called Three Provinces and Six Ministrys is a well-organized central official system in ancient dynasties. It was first established in the Sui Dynasty and perfected in the Tang Dynasty. From then on until the end of the Qing Dynasty, the Six Ministry system was basically inherited and not changed.

Among them, three provinces refer to the Secretariat, Menxia Province, Shangshu Province, and six departments refer to the Ministry of Personnel, the Ministry of Revenue, the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Justice, and the Ministry of Works under the Secretariat. Each department has four departments, with a total of twenty-four departments.

During the development of all dynasties, their organizational forms and powers were different. It was not until the Sui Dynasty that it was uniformly organized into three provinces and six ministries, mainly in charge of the formulation, review and implementation of government orders and policies, and at the same time, it played a role in weakening the power of the prime minister and strengthening the imperial power.

When Chunting heard this, she smiled and shook her head.

"Wrong."

I was surprised. Since I was quite interested in official and unofficial history since I was a child, I naturally had known these three provinces and six ministries for a long time. What was the mistake that Chunting said?

“Where was wrong?”

"Mr. Chen's Ministry of Works refers to six ministries, not three provinces and six ministries."

Chunting finally stopped keeping it, and looked at me explaining seriously.

"The three provinces and six ministries originated from the Sui and Tang Dynasties, while the six ministries can be traced back to the Shang and Zhou dynasties."

"What's the difference?"

Chunting’s plausible answer made me one big and two big, and I couldn’t understand the difference between the two.

"The Six Ministry is the general term for the six ministries in the central administrative organization. It has already reached a certain scale during the Shang and Zhou dynasties. Its position was originally divided by the nine ministers during the Qin and Han dynasties. It was not until the Sui and Tang dynasties that were officially established to be the part of the Shangshu Province. The six ministries were compared with the six officials in the "Liu of Zhou" and most of the positions of the nine ministers of the Qin and Han dynasties were merged."

"Although Guanshan has been passed down for thousands of years, according to what you said before, Guanshan has never intended to ascend the throne to the emperor."

If I remember correctly, Guan Shan should never have the idea of ​​becoming a king.

"Guanshan really did not have the intention to ascend the throne to the emperor, but there were several periods of heads, and it happened to be the lord of the world. Don't forget Emperor Yu and Zulong, they are all the real co-lords of the world."

Chunting seemed to speak casually, but what he said made me suddenly realize.

I have always ignored this point. According to Chunting and Ling Xuan, Guanshan had no intention of being the emperor on earth. He never interfered too much in the world. He only brought the world back to peace in times of danger. He did nothing but the people in the world were not affected by the war.

But after he said that, I suddenly remembered that the first leader of Guanshan was Dayu, who was called the communist ruler of the world. Could it be...

"Are these six ministries created by Dayu?"

"Yes, these six divisions were exactly what Emperor Yu did."

Chunting nodded and admitted calmly when he saw that I had sorted out the reason.

"Each force has its own mode of existence. Yihe's Netherworld is known as the legendary underworld. What has been inherited in Guanshan for thousands of years is the Six-Terms system created by Emperor Yu."
