How to reform the system?
"Tell me your thoughts."
Li Jing gave Yan Changqing a deep look and said.
In fact, in the Eastern Wilderness outside the Burial Grounds of Immortals, within the Dynasty of Destiny, there is also a three-tier system.
However, this three-tiered system is based on prefectures and counties.
A domain is a specific area!
The entire Burial Ground of Immortals is now a region, namely the Southern Region of the Eastern Wilderness.
It was only because nine celestial immortals perished in the Southern Heaven Domain, along with some other special reasons, that the entire Southern Heaven Domain became the burial ground for immortals it is today.
In the Eastern Wilderness, there is no prefecture-level government; the hierarchy is directly from state to county.
Because the Eastern Wilderness is suitable for cultivation, with abundant spiritual energy, even ordinary people in the Qi Yun Dynasty can reach the Yuan Shen Realm and the Hua Shen Realm in countless numbers.
This means that distance is no longer so far in the eyes of cultivators.
There is no need for prefectures; a state can directly govern down to the county level.
This is the difference between the Eastern Wilderness and the Burial Ground of Immortals.
However, now that the Taichu Dynasty has been promoted to a dynasty of destiny, not only has the spiritual energy of heaven and earth become increasingly abundant in the Yan Kingdom's territory due to the blessings of heaven and earth, but also in other territories that have been officially taken over by the Taichu Dynasty and become its territory, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth has also become more abundant.
The power of destiny of the Primordial Dynasty is constantly influencing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth within its territory.
The spiritual energy of heaven and earth within the territory of the Primordial Dynasty is constantly narrowing the gap with that of the Eastern Wilderness.
Perhaps without completely breaking the limitations of heaven and earth, the spiritual energy within the territory of the Primordial Dynasty will never be comparable to that of the Eastern Wilderness, let alone to those places in the Eastern Wilderness where the capitals of dynasties and sects are rich in spiritual energy.
However, the current Taichu Dynasty has undergone tremendous changes. The number of people who have reached the Innate Realm or even the Enlightenment Realm has gradually increased after cultivating the Taichu Martial Scripture.
"Your Majesty, I believe that our Taichu Dynasty can learn from the Qiyun Dynasty in the Eastern Wilderness, which is outside the Burial Ground of Immortals, and abolish the prefecture level and change it to a state and county level."
Yan Changqing's expression turned solemn, and he said in a firm and powerful voice, "Moreover, it's not just about abolishing the prefecture level, but only establishing the state and county levels."
My idea is to transform the original territory of a prefecture into the territory of a county.
The county government office was moved from its original location to the prefectural government office, which was located in the prefectural capital.
In addition, the states will be merged.
The land that was originally nine provinces has been reduced to one province!
The extra officials will be used as a reserve of officials and sent to the territories of the various mortal dynasties that our Primordial Dynasty is about to conquer.
The original standing army of 500,000 in one state had reached 4.5 million.
Will the land of Kyushu become a single province?
Li Jing raised an eyebrow and said.
This is quite normal in the Eastern Wilderness Dynasty. The territory of a single state in the Eastern Wilderness Dynasty is usually incredibly vast, and the area of some large states is several times larger than the combined area of the nine states of the Primordial Dynasty.
Therefore, this reform is actually not problematic at all.
"Your Majesty, I believe that the nine provinces of the former Yan Kingdom of our Taichu Dynasty can serve as the capital region!"
"Yanjing City, as the capital of our Taichu Dynasty, is already too small in area."
"The capital of our Primordial Dynasty will inevitably continue to expand."
"Therefore, I believe that we should simply incorporate the entire Jingzhou region into the capital."
“Abolish Jingzhou and transform the entire former Kyushu region into the Jingji region, under the administration of Jingzhao Prefecture.”
Yan Changqing nodded and said with a serious expression.
The Taichu Dynasty originally belonged to the State of Yan, and the capital city of Yan was actually located in Jingzhou, one of the nine provinces of Yan.
Now, he naturally wants to abolish the entire Jingzhou and turn it into the area of the capital.
The remaining eight prefectures were directly incorporated into the capital region and included in the Jingzhao Prefecture.
"Your humble servant seconds this!"
Minister of Personnel Zhong Shenxiu, Minister of Revenue Mu Yunfei, Minister of War Dongfang Ming, Minister of Rites Tantai Qiuwu, Minister of Works Tie Ao, and others stepped forward and spoke in a resounding voice.
"We second that proposal!"
Seeing that all the ministers had agreed, the civil and military officials knew that this matter must have been discussed in the Wenyuan Pavilion and received the unanimous approval of the important officials of the Taichu Dynasty, so they also shouted with utmost respect.
"Approved."
Li Jing looked at the civil and military officials of the Taichu Dynasty and said with a calm expression.
"Your Majesty is wise."
All the civil and military officials shouted in unison.
"Do my esteemed ministers have anything else to discuss?"
Li Jing smiled calmly and said.
"Your Majesty, I have something to report!"
Nangong Qingyue stepped forward and addressed Li Jing with a respectful expression.
All the officials in the court immediately turned their attention to Nangong Qingyue.
This one is the Grand Astrologer of the Celestial Patrol Division of the Primordial Dynasty, the eyes and ears of the Primordial Dynasty.
Her coming out to report must mean something has happened.
"explain."
Li Jing said calmly.
"Your Majesty, according to our investigation by the Celestial Patrol Division, the Taiyi Dao Sect has officially transformed into a state!"
"Hua Tianfeng, the Holy Son of the Taiyi Sect, has been declared the ruler of the Taiyi Dynasty."
"The emperors of the thirty-six kingdoms under the Taiyi Sect, as well as Venerable Daoyan, the abbot of the Vajra Temple, and Elder Ye Xinghun of the Wind and Thunder Pavilion, each led their emperors of mortal dynasties, totaling eighty-nine emperors, to gather at the Taiyi Sect!"
"Submitted to Hua Tianfeng and became a subject of the Taiyi Dynasty."
