If we have to compete on the Wei River, the amount of migrant workers and engineering work required is unimaginable.

Lin Yutong said, "Nowadays, there are many people who oppose Empress Wu just to oppose Empress Wu! It's as if Empress Wu ascended the throne here and something happened. It's simply inexplicable."

Fourth Master then gave his idea, "Unless there is a big move."

How to move?

The fourth master clicked on the map and said, "Re-divide the provinces, and change the three provinces and six ministries along the way. Abolish the three provinces! Now these three provinces have actually highlighted the status of Zhongshu Province. If this continues, it is not a good thing. It would be better to overthrow the table.

, come back!”

Yes! The provinces must be re-divided.

Nowadays, the divisions are divided into different roads, such as taking the Yellow River as the boundary, Hebei Road, and Henan Road. But this has great disadvantages. The map must be divided into provinces in a criss-cross manner.

Why? Let’s take the An Lushan Rebellion as an example. An Lushan raised his troops in Hebei Province, and then the imperial army was unable to cross the river.

Today's regional divisions are all "following the shape of mountains and rivers", which is wrong! It is necessary to divide each dangerous area into another province. Only in this way can mutual checks and balances between the two provinces be formed.

Just as he was talking, Zesheng finished his homework and came to see Aniang and Aye. He also came over to look at the map and asked what he was going to do. Lin Yutong told his children what they were going to do.

Zesheng understood immediately. He put his hand on Hanzhong County and said, "Hanzhong is the gateway to Sichuan and Shu. If the Central Plains wants to enter Sichuan and Shu, Hanzhong is the only entrance. When my son read the history of the Three Kingdoms, he realized something. Liu Bei had

Only then did Hanzhong threaten the Wei state. Later, Hanzhong was captured by Zhong Hui, and the Shu state soon fell. If Hanzhong is included in Sichuan and Shu, once local separatist regimes are formed and they rely on natural dangers, the court will be helpless!"

That’s the truth!

Therefore, Hanzhong cannot be returned to Sichuan and Shu provinces, which will curb the throats of Sichuan and Shu. Want to become bigger? Try making it bigger!

This should be derived from the experience and lessons learned by later generations after the Anshi Rebellion. Later in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the division of various provinces was adjusted. Why? It was for this reason.

The jagged map contains the experience and lessons of thousands of years of struggle, which are all wisdom!

The fourth master always clicked on the most important place. After the child fell asleep, the fourth master said, "Look, with such a big move, without your current position, which emperor can let you do this? That's it.

Even if the military system is changed, if this geographical division is not changed, it will still not be able to put an end to the separatism of local forces."

That's right! That's the truth.

Lin Yutong invited Emperor Wu and several prime ministers in the court the next day to show them the revised map and the original map.

For example, Tong'an County belongs to Huainan Road, which is divided according to the Huaihe River.

Tong'an County became Anqing later. It was originally the gateway to Jiangxi, but it belonged to Anhui.

Emperor Wu looked at the map for a long time and then he understood the meaning. Ordinarily, is this consideration correct? It must be correct! Putting each important road under the jurisdiction of another government, and constraining each other, whoever wants to do most of it is fine.

Difficult. But such a change is equivalent to reshuffling the officialdom. Even the names of official positions have to be changed, the regions have changed, and it is abnormal for officials to change. It is too normal.

This change of officials wiped out Emperor Wu's power. Di Renjie said to himself that before, he was worried that the Supreme Emperor, Your Majesty, would have disputes between these two generations of kings on some matters, such as the appointment and promotion of officials. Now

Okay, His Majesty just overturned the table. How to rebuild it? She grabbed it.

There was no conspiracy, no overt and covert fighting, His Majesty just put the matter before everyone in an upright and upright manner. This is a major event that will benefit the Tang Dynasty for generations to come. Can you say no to it?

No way!

Then you have to agree! After agreeing, each and every one of them becomes a chess piece in His Majesty's hands. She can use them only when she wants and how she wants to use them.

Not counting this, someone else brought up another point, "That is to completely reform the three provinces. How should we do this? One is for government, one is for military, and one is for law. These are the three pavilions. The three pavilions stand side by side, each performing their own duties.

.”

It seems that there are still three provinces, but there is a problem, that is the will of the saint. If something goes wrong, who will refute it?

This one!

Lin Yutong said, "The members of the three pavilions are all odd numbers, and each person votes with one vote. I have two votes, but I can say no! If the members of the three pavilions all reject a resolution, the emperor will take it back and reconsider it."

This means who cares about whom! The government does not care about the military, the military does not care about the government, and the law is the supervision. This is another restriction on the power of the prime minister.

No one said anything. This matter needs to be considered more carefully.

Then let's think about it and take our time.

But can it really be done slowly? Lin Yutong communicated with each other one by one, and first approached Zhang Jianzhi.

Autumn is here, and the autumn chrysanthemums are blooming. When Zhang Jian came to the office, Tongtong was playing with the chrysanthemums. As soon as she saw him, she waved, "No courtesy, come and sit down."

Zhang Jianzhi came over and sat down.

Lin Yutong put the picked chrysanthemums in place, and then used the dried chrysanthemums to make chrysanthemum tea, "Try this taste to get rid of the heat."

The fragrance of chrysanthemum is tangy, "Good tea!"

"I think it's good. I'll bring you some when I go back." He said and asked, "Have all the family members arrived? What kind of errands are the sons at home doing? How many grandchildren do they have? Is Madam okay? I'll take Madam with me another day.

Come together..."

Zhang Jianzhi replied loudly, thinking in his mind what his Majesty meant by looking for him.

Lin Yutong sighed, "You and Prime Minister Lou are both elders, and I want to entrust you with government affairs. As for Di Gong, he also admires you very much and thinks you have the ability to be a prime minister. If the Tang Dynasty wants to be stable, what is the most important thing?

The most important thing is to make the people prosperous and strong! I want to leave this most important thing to you...any other things that hinder you, I will deal with it for you."

Zhang Jianzhi drank the tea brewed by His Majesty himself and said so many words of praise and sincerity that for some reason, he immediately agreed.

When he went back, he was still wondering: Why did he just agree?

Little did he know that Lou Shide and Di Renjie were also invited to the palace separately later, and both drank His Majesty's chrysanthemum tea alone.

Their Majesty said to Lou Shide, "What is the most important thing in military affairs? Food, grass and weapons. Prime Minister Lou, I have entrusted the safety of the Tang Dynasty to you. I can only entrust you with the most important things."

!”

The old man was so moved that he couldn't even express his gratitude.

When they arrived at Duke Dee, their majesty said to them, "I never fool around with Duke Dee. You have a delicate and clear heart, comparable to Bigan! The perfection and execution of laws are so great in the whole dynasty.

Minister, no one can do this except you..."

Shangguan Wan'er listened and laughed in her heart. The Supreme Emperor is very straightforward and would not be so shameless! People who talk sweetly but are brave are not as cute as upright people! Anyway, the errands given to everyone are important. They
Chapter completed!
