"Empire Hegemony" Chapter 1289
"If you work hard, I won't treat you badly."
Chen Ziang naturally knew that Qin Anxin, Chief of Political Affairs, had thoughts in his heart, so after the discussion of the matter was over, he also comforted him.
"The humble minister must do his best to do his job well."
After hearing Chen Ziang's promise, Qin An's heart also trembled, knowing that Chen Ziang had seen through his state, so he hurriedly expressed his opinion.
Qin An, as a veteran minister who defected from the previous dynasty, was different from the grassroots who defected to the Qinghe army in the early stage, unlike the grassroots who defected to the Qinghe army later.
Qin An's contribution to the Qinghe Army's ability to defeat powerful enemies along the way in the South and North Wars can be said to be indispensable.
In particular, Chen Ziang led the army to fight and fight on the front line, while Qin An tried his best to implement the New Deal in the rear, which greatly consolidated the foundation of the Qinghe Army and provided the Qinghe Army with a steady stream of money, food and soldiers.
The Qinghe Army led by Chen Ziang was able to overthrow the decadent dynasty and establish a new empire. Qin An has made great contributions.
However, in the new high-level structure of the empire, Chen Ziang's main idea is the balance of power.
So I didn't follow the example of the dynasty and set up the left and right prime ministers, because the power is too great and there is no check and balance. If a mediocre person is in this position, it will harm the country and the people.
Chen Ziang is more concerned with the system, setting up various ministries and institutes to be in charge of various affairs, the General Affairs Office is in charge of reviewing and issuing, and the heads of each ministries and institutes take turns in the General Affairs Office, so as to avoid mistakes in decision-making caused by one word.
"Thirty-six divisions of the seven ministries, two courts, etc. have been settled in this way. How about you having the right to serve as the chief of the Ministry of Officials and the first rotating chief of the General Affairs Department? The official rank is determined to be the first grade."
Chen Ziang also knew that Qin An had made great contributions, and he was not someone who crossed rivers and demolished bridges, so he decided to appoint him as the chief of the Ministry of Officials.
"Thank you Your Majesty, I will do my best to live up to Your Majesty's trust!"
After Qin An was taken aback for a moment, he also realized that it was Chen Ziang's trust and respect for him, so he hurriedly thanked him.
The appointment of the heads of the seven ministries and two courts is directly managed by the emperor Chen Ziang, but the appointment, evaluation and promotion of the subordinate thirty-six divisions and provincial officials are all under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Officials.
Whoever serves as the chief of the Ministry of Officials will control the promotion, assessment and appointment of almost 90% of the officials in the entire empire. This is a high-ranking real position.
Besides, Qin An also served as the first rotating chief of the General Affairs Office, so Qin An knew that although he was an old minister of the previous dynasty, Chen Ziang still trusted and reused him.
Although he is no longer the head of the Government Affairs Department and the Central Government, he has served as the head of the General Affairs Department and the Ministry of Civil Affairs. He still holds a high position and authority, but he has just changed his title.
"The list of the thirty-six divisions and the main officials of the provinces, you should draw up a list as soon as possible."
Now the empire urgently needs to establish an efficient and powerful team from top to bottom to implement various policies as soon as possible, so Chen Ziang is also very urgent about forming a team.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will report the list to Your Majesty within three days."
Qin An has served as the rotating chief of the General Affairs Department and the chief of the Ministry of Officials. Now that his stable position has been confirmed, the stone hanging in his heart has fallen to the ground, so he is happy to agree.
Previously, when Qin An saw that Chen Ziang used the assassination to suppress the old ministers of the previous dynasty, he was also uneasy.
In the new round of organizational structure, he doesn't know whether he will be marginalized because of his origin.
And now seeing that Chen Ziang is still using him heavily, he feels at ease and is more motivated to do things.
Besides, he was responsible for drawing up the list of chief officials of the thirty-six divisions and provinces. This was Chen Ziang's trust in him, so he naturally did not dare to neglect.
Chen Ziang and Qin An discussed the high-level organizational structure and various affairs of the empire. It was not until dusk fell that Qin An left the palace with brisk steps.
After Qin An returned to his newly built house in the imperial capital, he immediately ordered someone to take the roster of officials at all levels of the empire, and began to select the thirty-six divisions and the heads of various provinces in the study overnight.
? According to the regulations negotiated by Qin An and Chen Ziang, the official rank of the head of the thirty-six divisions is set as the second rank, and the ranks of the chief executives of the provinces are set as the second rank. They are all positions of real power.
So how to choose the positions of these chief officials is also a big test for Qin An.
At the beginning, he wanted to send some of his own people up, so that he could?? Form a force of your own.
However, after thinking about it, Qin An finally crossed out those who are close to him.
He knew that Chen Ziang was shrewd. If he put a lot of real jobs on his own people, Chen Ziang would probably be able to see that he would be mistaken for his cleverness.
Moreover, Chen Ziang asked himself to draw up a list of candidates for the thirty-six divisions and the governors of various provinces, maybe it was a test for himself.
After figuring this out, Qin An is also a lot more cautious. He thinks over and over again for every position, so as to avoid being caught by others and avoid a crisis of trust in himself.
When Qin An, the new chief of staff, was looking at the long list of lists in his study and thinking hard, he was also a little worried in the temporary residence of chief of staff Li Qiye.
Chen Ziang asked Li Qiye to be in charge of formulating the regulations for the rewards, and asked him to draw up the list of rewards.
In the past few days, Li Qiye's residence has been crowded with people, and there is an endless stream of visitors.
The purpose of these people is nothing more than to get close to Li Qiye, hoping to get a little more benefit when awarding the reward.
At the same time, I also want to find out what kind of reward and where I am.
There are many army-level generals who came to visit Li Qiye, and it is not easy for him to drive them out, so he can only treat them warmly.
But in the face of their close inquiries, Li Qiye could only bite the bullet and continue, but he was still more cautious, saying what should be said, and not saying what should not be said.
He is now only responsible for formulating the regulations and drafting the list of rewards, but Chen Ziang still needs to make the final decision.
Li Qiye has been busy for the past few days and has drawn up the general reward charter and distribution list. It was not until the middle of the night that he browsed and thought about it carefully before locking it in a drawer and going to sleep peacefully.
On the morning of the next day, Li Qiye entered the palace with a draft that he had pondered over and over for several days, preparing to submit it to Chen Ziang for review.
"So fast?"
Chen Ziang was quite surprised when he heard that Li Qiye had finished making the rules and list of rewards and submitted them to himself in a few days. He didn't expect Li Qiye to be so fast.
"Let him wait in the No. 2 side hall, and I will pass right away."
Chen Ziang was advising his two wives on getting involved in business and trade. When he heard that Li Qiye had arrived, he immediately put aside the matter at hand and was going to meet Li Qiye to see the rules of the reward. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
