"I have already predicted your prediction.”
"The Military and Political Affairs Office is prepared for such situations.”
Fang Yunfei smiled slightly, as if he had everything under control.
"Military and Political Affairs Office?"
"Just from the name, you can tell that it's a good yamen!”
Hearing the words 'Military and Political Affairs Department', Lan Yu's eyes lit up.
This place sounds like a place where people wield knives and sticks. It definitely has something to do with our generals!
Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao also looked at Fang Yunfei curiously.
In their opinion, with the checks and balance between the cabinet and the director of ceremonies.
Almost all of Da Ming's power was concentrated in the Emperor's hands.
What could this Military and Political Affairs Office that appeared out of nowhere do?
Could it be that they were going to let the generals review it again on top of the review by the ceremonial director?
If that was really the case, then that Fang brat was a little superfluous!
"Hehe! Do you think I'm playing with an infinite nesting doll?”
Looking at Zhu Yuanzhang and the Crown Prince's expressions, Fang Yunfei guessed what they were thinking.
"Please enlighten me, benefactor."
Zhu Biao said respectfully.
After hearing Fang Yun Fei's words, he knew that he had guessed wrong from the start.
Fortunately, Zhu Biao was a modest gentleman who could correct his mistakes.
"Actually, you can tell by the name. The Military and Political Affairs Office was the place to handle important military affairs!”
Fang Yunfei wrote the words 'Military and Political Affairs Office' next to 'Cabinet' and 'Chief of Rites.'
"But the cabinet and the ceremonial director are also places to handle state affairs. How is the Military and Political Affairs Office different from them?"
Zhu Biao asked curiously.
"It's very simple! The Cabinet and the Chief of Rites were the permanent yamens that dealt with daily affairs. The Military and Political Affairs Office was a temporary organization that dealt with emergencies.”
Fang Yunfei said with a smile.
"An emergency? Interesting!"
Zhu Yuanzhang's interest was piqued.
The yamen of each dynasty dealt with different matters.
For example, the Ministry of Revenue was mainly in charge of money, the Ministry of Personnel was in charge of officials, the General Administration Department was in charge of reporting, and the Imperial Censorate was in charge of criticizing people daily.
No one had ever set up a yamen according to the urgency of the matter like Fang brat.
Ignoring everyone's expressions, Fang Yunfei pointed at the words 'Military and Political Affairs Office' and continued,"
"Be it the emperor or the ministers, the vast majority of them are dealing with daily government affairs.”
"Although these things are very important, most of them are repetitive work.”
"To put it bluntly, as long as you do it long enough, even a dog can do it!”
Hearing Fang Yunfei's words, Zhu Yuanzhang's expression changed.
Good fellow!
So what I do every day is something that even a dog can do in your eyes?
Who are you looking down on?
Zhu Biao nodded in agreement.
Although he dealt with a lot of things every day, it was just like what Benefactor Fang had said, it was all repetitive work!
It was either the appointment and removal of officials, big or small, or the taxes collected by the local governments.
His biggest job every day was actually to deal with the arguments between officials at all levels!
Something as exciting as the Gaoli Army mutiny could not happen twice a year.
It made him feel a little like he was dealing with a case of " daily court politics with PDSD."
Every day when he saw the memorials, he had the urge to burn them.
How tragic!
"You must know that the reason why the cabinet and the ceremonial director were set up at the same time was to let these two yamens check and balance each other. To put it bluntly, it was to let the civil officials and eunuchs wrangle.”
"It's fine to argue normally, but if there's an emergency like a flood, earthquake, or war, it'll be a mistake for the country and the people!”
Fang Yunfei continued.
As expected, when Fang Yunfei mentioned natural and man-made disasters, Zhu Yuanzhang and the other two immediately became serious.。
The things that Fang brat had said just now, none of them could be delayed!
For example, if the Yellow River and Yangtze River flooded, it could affect several provinces, affecting at least hundreds of thousands of people.
If the imperial court did not handle this matter in time, it would easily incite a rebellion.
Another example was the invasion of foreign enemies.
A slight delay could lead to the destruction of the border or the destruction of the country.
These were all first-class urgent matters, and there was no room for carelessness.
"But in this situation, Tian Zi alone can make the decision. Why do you need the Military and Political Affairs Office to do this?"
Zhu Biao followed Fang Yunfei's train of thought and asked.
"You don't have any experience in this, do you?" Fang Yunfei pointed at the Crown Prince and criticized.
"You have to know that the Emperor is not omnipotent. The incident happened so suddenly, could he have considered everything? At this time, did he not need a group of people to help him come up with an idea?”
"Other than having someone to come up with ideas, we also need the cooperation of all parties. He couldn't expect the Emperor to fight alone with a machete, right?”
"This Military and Political Affairs Office is to bypass the cabinet and the ceremonial supervisor and gather all the officials involved in the emergency together to handle it!”
"We must solve the problem in the shortest time possible.”
"After the problem is solved, the Military and Political Affairs Office can be abolished. He would rebuild it when there was an emergency.”
Fang Yunfei explained to the three of them.
In history, the Military and Political Affairs Office was established in the seventh year of Yongzheng. It was temporarily set up by Yin Zhen for the northwest military.
It was just that it was easy to use, so he had been using it.
In the Qing Dynasty, the Military and Political Affairs Office was a temporary organization, its role was similar to that of later generations. At the government's Emergency Department.
"Good! That's great!"
Lan Yu slapped her thigh.
Although he didn't know much about the role of the Military and Political Affairs Office, he knew that this yamen was used to deal with emergencies.
What was the biggest incident in the Ming Dynasty?
Wasn't it a military conflict with the neighboring countries?
Since they were going to war, they couldn't leave these generals.
With the Military and Political Affairs Office, these generals and nobles could bypass the cabinet and the director of ceremonies and directly contact the Emperor to offer advice. They did not have to worry about being suppressed by civil officials and eunuchs.
It could be said that this Military and Political Affairs Office was tailor-made for their generals.
This Fang brat, I, Old Blue, am getting more and more pleasing to the eye!
