Chapter 69 Discussions in the living room
It was precisely because the assassin delayed the time that Yang Song dared to reform at this time.
Otherwise, just preparing for war requires a lot of energy, so how can I have no time to reform?
But the assassin's assassination strategy is not a long-term solution after all.
Moreover, the enemy seems to have to send troops, so Yang Song and the others can only find ways to delay time.
If you can drag it one day, it is best to drag it to the end. The enemy has no plans to send troops. That would be the best.
Suddenly, Yang Song remembered the seven lords captured by Di Qing and others and many powerful people. If used properly, these people might be able to win some time for the Xia Kingdom.
"Wen Ruo is not that Gu wants to launch a war on the outside, but that the enemy does not allow Xia's country to develop safely. As long as the enemy does not come to invade, Gu will not pay attention to them." Yang Song explained to Xun Yu.
"Yes, I understand!" Xun Yu bowed. He was just looking at the problem from the perspective of Xia Kingdom's development. He just made his own suggestions, and the rest depends on the decision of the emperor.
The military and administrative aspects have been discussed. Seeing that it was getting late, Yang Song said: "Let's go here today and continue tomorrow. Please go back and think about whether there are any omissions."
After everyone dispersed, Yang Song kept Li Jing, Liu Ji, Chen Ping, Zhang Juzheng, Yang Li and other important people.
"You guys have dinner with Gu. After that, Gu still has something to discuss with you." Yang Song sent an invitation to the people.
"I'm waiting for you to thank you!" All of them agreed to thank you.
After dinner, Yang Song and everyone sat down according to the main and orders in the living room on the first floor of the monarch's mansion.
Yang Song picked up the tea cup and took a sip of the tea ceremony: "Today, the Military Department and the Administration Department have already established regulations, and I wonder what you think of other departments."
"I think other departments will be organized according to this law." Liu Bowen took the lead and suggested.
Yang Song looked at Liu Bowen and signaled him to continue, "Bowen said in detail."
"Yes!" Liu Bowen bowed his hand and said, "The Military Department has brought together all military departments, and the various functional departments are under it, with clear division of labor and centralized unified division of labor."
"So, I suggest that some similar or similar departments can be formed together." Liu Bowen said slowly: "For example, the two departments that are closely related to education and technology can be combined into a science and education hall."
Yang Song replied, "This is also the reason why the gentleman proposed to separate the Medical Bureau from the Executive Office!"
"You are wise!" Liu Bowen said with a compliment and continued: "Medical, technology and education have something in common, that is, technology and knowledge, that is, most of them belong to academic aspects. I wonder what I will say next?" Liu Bowen said and asked Zhu Xi, Shen Kuo and Li Shizhen.
"What Liu Junshi said is that science education is complementary. Science and technology need top talents to promote it, and top talents also need to undergo education and training." Zhu Xi touched his beard and nodded in agreement.
Shen Kuo nodded frequently and said in a tone that he agreed so much that he could no longer agree: "Men's research institute is very short of talents. Even the outstanding young men and girls who graduated from high school can only do odd jobs. I originally hoped that the emperor would increase his investment in education."
Since 5,000 talents came to Xiaguo, several researchers at the institute have finally been no longer the commanders. With competent assistants, they can finally devote themselves to research without doing everything themselves.
Li Shizhen frowned and listened to the conversation of several people, and replied: "Your Majesty, I am just a doctor and do not understand official affairs, but I know that medical skills, medical devices, methods, etc. also require careful research and summary of experience."
"Oh? According to Bowen's meaning, it is recommended to put science and technology, education and medical care in a large department?" Yang Song asked Liu Bowen after hearing the speeches of several people.
Liu Bowen immediately bowed and replied, "Yes, lord, this is what the minister wants. But it is difficult for the person in charge to be sure."
After saying that, he looked at Shen Kuo and the other two, and saw the three of them wave their hands repeatedly, indicating that they could not manage such daily affairs. They still wanted to remain silent in their own field, but they did not want to be delayed by these complicated offices.
Even Zhu Xi, who has a certain degree of official intention, doesn't want to do such a large-scale business, and he will not be able to manage daily affairs.
When Yang Song saw the attitude of several people, he was also embarrassed. The administrative department should do such management affairs, but this would make the administrative department too powerful, otherwise Liu Bowen would not propose to form a separate department.
He looked at Liu Bowen's calm look and couldn't help asking, "Look at how he is, there is a way, right?"
"Haha~! Your Majesty has really a sharp eye. It's not bad. I have a suggestion. I hope you don't blame me." Liu Bowen touched the beard on his chin and laughed.
"Since the three gentlemen are unwilling to manage this department, it's okay to add a department that can be managed. However, such departments do not need to be set up separately, as long as there is a team."
Yang Song frowned and listened to Liu Bowen's method, but he still didn't understand it very well. He said bluntly: "Sir, please tell me what this department looks like!"
Liu Bowen bowed and took the order and said, "Yes, I obey the order!"
"This department is called the "Department of the Council" and has four departments and colleges: Tai Academy, Science and Technology Academy, Tai Hospital, and Xuanzhengyuan. The Xuanzhengyuan is responsible for managing affairs."
Yang Song finally understood that Liu Bowen just said that he should not blame him, but that he was waiting for him here.
Tai Academy is the original Education Bureau, the Science and Technology Academy is the original Science and Technology Bureau, and the Tai Academy should be the medical bureau separated from the Executive Office, while Xuan Zhengyuan is the Propaganda Bureau that Yang Song attaches great importance to.
Unexpectedly, Liu Bowen merged the department in charge of publicity into the hospital, but Yang Song thought carefully and knew the other party’s plan.
At this time, Liu Bowen's explanation followed: "Your Majesty, I have merged the Propaganda Bureau into a department in charge of academics, in addition to letting it manage it on its behalf, on the other hand, to review textbooks and manage information, and not allow things that should not appear to enter this department!"
Liu Bowen's serious voice resounded throughout the living room. Such careful consideration can be said to be a thousand years later. His wisdom made Yang Song admire him very much - this is a suggestion that concerns the foundation of Xia's rule!
Yang Song knew the term information control, but such an "advanced" concept is not something that people of this era can understand.
The simple point of this suggestion is to make the education system a knowledge of loyalty to the emperor and patriotism not appear in the scattered or rebellious thoughts.
On the other hand, there must be a control over the research content of technology, the advancement of medicine, etc., to prevent the occurrence of evil scientists and evil human experiments - of course, except for those agreed by Yang Song.
Yang Song nodded seriously and agreed, "Just do what Bowen said!"
Then he instructed Yang Li: "You have heard what Liu Junshi said. This is a major event related to the future of Xia Kingdom. I will hand over this important task to you!"
"Yes, I obey the order, and I will definitely not let down the emperor's trust!" Yang Li stood up and bowed and solemnly took over the emperor's order.
Yang Song said with a good word and instructed: "But you should not interfere with the research of various departments. You are only responsible for review and supervision of the plans you have made, not directly interfering. Remember to report any matters at any time!"
"Yes, I have recorded it!" Yang Li should have been so serious.
