Chapter seven hundred and sixty-ninth final chapter(1/2)
Daming Palace, Hall of Health.
In the West Warehouse, the ground dragons burned hot.
Jia Cong was wearing only a single dress and sat on the imperial chair, looking at Zhao Qingshan, Chai Liang, Lin Qinghe, Wu Qichuan, Dong Xin, Wei Yi and other cabinet ministers in the hall with a serious expression.
Although he had long expected that as time delayed, civil servants would definitely have greater demands for power.
But he didn't expect it to be so fast.
Zhao Qingshan handed over a memorandum, requesting that the cabinet replacement system he formulated be defined as a law.
Moreover, a detailed regulations and systems are listed.
For example, the old Tang Dynasty system that restored "not li prefectures and counties, but not Taiwan provinces".
The cabinet unanimously agreed that one of the roots and one of the extremely important reasons for the Kaiyuan prosperous era was that "not scattered prefectures and counties, nor did it envision Taiwan Province."
By the late period of Emperor Ming of Tang Dynasty, Li Linfu, the prime minister who valued cunning, had no academics, and was good at music, deposed the Taiwan Provincial system, which was one of the causes of the decline of the prosperous Tang Dynasty.
In the 19th year of Prime Minister Li Linfu, the Anshi Rebellion eventually led to the Anshi Rebellion.
Now that Yuan Fu and the cabinet ministers are re-elected for at most two terms, it can eliminate the problem of too long.
If we can persist in choosing cabinet ministers among the bans that have made remarkable contributions among prefectures, counties, provinces and governments, we can also eliminate Li Linfu and others as much as possible.
If this system can be rooted and become the iron rule of the ancestors, then the country can extend its fortune for at least five hundred years.
However, if this is the case, it will greatly limit the monarchy.
Although the nominal prime minister was still appointed by the emperor, the range of choices was greatly reduced.
Moreover, the selected ones are likely to be unsatisfactory.
However, it is mostly beneficial to the country...
Seeing Jia Cong's face was solemn, Zhao Qingshan and Chai Liang looked at each other, Zhao Qingshan slowly said, "Your Highness is a saint who has never been seen in history to build a foundation for the country's dynasty that will last forever. I am willing to attach myself to the tail of the horse and wish to add the strength of your highness to his weak body. If this method is done, I will retire three years later, and Chai Liang will immediately leave the capital and go to Annan.
Your Highness, I originally wanted to devote my life to you and die to repay Your Highness for his gratitude for knowing you. However, I did not expect that Your Highness, with his amazing talent, turned his hands into clouds and rain, and he would do a great job in the wind and rain.
I have discovered that as long as the administration is clear, I have not been able to do much...
Chai Wenxiao is ten times more talented than his ministers. If he were in power, he would have done better.
What the old minister could do for His Highness in the end was to thoroughly clarify the administration in three years, and then assist His Highness in completing the new and old cabinet replacement system."
Jia Cong's expression was slightly moved when he heard this, but he calmed down and glanced over Chai Liang and said, "Taifu, if this is the case, to a certain extent, the power of the cabinet is greater than the power of the monarch. If he is lonely, if he is not there, the power of the king in the future will be weak, the cabinet will be able to recognise the candidate for Yuanfu. Even if there is a rebellious person who has ulterior motives for decades, he can pass the position of Yuanfu to his son, and pass the son to the grandson, and use the emperor to command the princes! By then, the emperor will only become a puppet controlled by others."
"this……"
After saying this, Zhao Qingshan and others' expressions suddenly changed.
Is it possible, possible, and very likely?
The people of China have always been the best people in the world.
But for Chinese officials, especially the top officials, it is not an exaggeration to be wary of even the most cautious attitude for thousands of years.
Those who harm the country are never the people, but the officials.
This has almost become a cycle of reincarnation. The huge and greedy bureaucratic group has harmed the country to the point of shattering mountains and rivers. Then, he shouted "Every man is responsible for the rise and fall of the world", summoned loyal and righteous people to reshape the mountains and rivers, and then formed another huge and greedy bureaucratic group, continuing the disasters that have been repeated over and over again.
From beginning to end, the Chinese people are working hard to support the officials and men.
When the war is over, he will work hard to fight and sacrifice for the interests of the officials.
Therefore, Jia Cong would never trust the officials' integrity.
"Taifu, there is only one Zhao Qingshan in the world."
"Your Highness!!"
In an instant, Zhao Qingshan burst into tears and knelt down to worship the great ceremony.
Lin Qinghe, Wu Qichuan and others looked at Chai Liang with some insight.
Prince, which one are you guarding against...
After Jia Cong asked Wang Chun to help Zhao Qingshan up, he smiled and said, "The heart of the Taifu is very clear. However, Yuan Fu, the prime minister, was polite to all the officials, and was responsible for the national affairs and even the country, and could not be decided so simply. Gu already had some ideas, but it was not perfect at present. This will take about twenty years or more, and it will be tried step by step. There has never been a method that will never change forever, and can only be continuously improved. This should also be the core principle of the new party!
However, the Taifu wants to retire in three years, which is OK... In the past two years, the Taifu has been resting for less than three hours a day. It is only a year after working hard, and the Taifu has white hair and beard. The Taifu is managing state affairs with his life and hard work. The lonely man is not willing to bear it. Now that the national affairs are gradually stabilizing, the Taifu can no longer work so hard. The lonely man is not A Dou, how can the Taifu be the last time Zhuge Kongming is?"
After Zhao Qingshan was so grateful that he burst into tears, in the delicate atmosphere in the Yangxin Palace, Jia Cong said to Chai Liang again: "I know the talent of Chai Shaofu. As early as when Ning Zechen was the Yuanfu of the cabinet, he had argued with the late emperor, saying that the young master had the talent to stabilize the country and ensure the country. The young master first managed the troubles of the river, quelled the rebellion of Qi and Lu, and made great contributions to the country. I knew that the original intention of this memorial must be from the hands of the young master, and the young master's long-term vision was also admired by Gu. The young master was willing to go to Annan to set the border for the country, but he was very lonely.
Consolation. But the young tutor always has to walk step by step. No one has walked this road like this in the past few thousand years. No one knows what the future ahead will be. He can only cross the river by feeling the stones. Gu naturally understands the young tutor's intentions, maybe he is worried that Gu will make a mistake, or he will become foolish after he is full of ambition, such as Li Longji? As for the former, Gu will draw up his will in advance and place it behind the plaque of Zhengda Guangming written by Gu in Hanyuan Palace. If the will of heaven is really unpredictable, the funeral can be followed by the will..."
Zhao Qingshan and others turned blue when they heard this.
If outsiders know that they forced Jia Cong to discuss their affairs afterwards, let alone others, the Empress Dowager could peel off their good skin!
Chai Liang also knelt down and kowtowed, "My minister, I have met a wise king like Your Highness, which is a blessing given to you by God for ten generations. How dare I think about the good and bad luck of my king and father? The only thing I feared and could not sleep is that the only words "Heaven is jealous of talent..."
"God is jealous of talent..."
Jia Cong laughed and said nothing more about this matter. He said, "As for the silly and confused after being proud of himself, he became foolish and confused... Gu thought that in at least twenty years, the government affairs of the state were not yet reached. During these twenty years, the government affairs of the state were mostly handed over to the cabinet. The only thing Gu had to worry about was to constantly repair and improve the system of establishing the state. In this regard, Gu also needed the help of the Taifu, the Shaofu and the Cabinet ministers. However, these matters must be discussed in detail after the Taifu, the Shaofu and the Ministers of the Cabinet. After the official retired, although he was not allowed to interfere in the government affairs, he still agreed to it. In fact, the improvement of this system, how to ensure the balance of the power of the monarch and the ministers, and how to ensure that the power is not unbalanced, is crucial! After the retirement, he still has a heavy burden to take. Therefore, the Taifu still needs to maintain his body and bones."
Zhao Qingshan and others did not expect that Jia Cong would see things so clearly, and had already made plans and were very convinced.
Naturally, they didn't know that Jia Cong's real plan was to reproduce his bloodlines within these twenty years.
Not only the bloodline of the Tian family, but also the private population.
The outside world is too huge. Although the big fight now has more than 100 million people, it is the world's largest country in terms of population, but it is still far from enough.
With the vigorous promotion of high-yield crops such as corn and potatoes in the north, and the restoration of major grain-producing provinces such as Annan and Siam, the food problem that restricts the reproduction of the people for thousands of years will be completely solved.
At most twenty years, the population with a base of 100 million will experience explosive growth.
And by then, most of his sons will be far more than they are now.
Jia Cong was confident that in his lifetime, he would establish a powerful and immortal Greater China Federation.
But if you say this, you don’t need to tell Zhao Qingshan, Chai Liang and others.
Even though Chai Liang's talent can ensure the stability of the country, his eyes cannot see through the long river of history, and it is impossible for him to jump out of the shackles of the cycle that has been repeated for thousands of years in China.
So, they just need to be a good executor.
Instead of using their historical gaze to provoke his strategic layout.
People who are too talented are always restless...
...
After the Self-Yangxin Hall came out, the ministers of the cabinet returned to the Yangxin Hall.
The atmosphere is not too good, but not too bad.
Lin Qinghe sighed: "Your Highness's ambition is like the bright moon in the sky, and like the magnificent sun, which is beyond our reach."
After Chai Liang looked at him, he said to Zhao Qingshan: "Yuanfu, be sure to take care of your health! Be sure to take care of yourself! Only Yuanfu can persuade Your Highness when something happens. Today I will go to Annan and Siam. In three years, the two provinces will be stable. The only thing I am concerned about is the body bone of the Taifu..."
With Zhao Qingshan's current unswerving holy family, he can still have a certain influence on Jia Cong.
If he makes a mistake, the cabinet and the Tian family will only have the right to be a monarch and a minister...
Since he had spoken in front of the emperor before, Zhao Qingshan retired in the third year and Chai Liang went to Annan to take charge. There was no joke in front of him, and they had to do what they said.
This is because the atmosphere is not very good...
Obviously, this is the prince's fierce counterattack against the cabinet's desire to expand its power demands.
After the slap, the cabinet did not implement any hair that they wanted, but cut off most of their political lives.
The pain penetrates into the bone marrow.
Fortunately, Jia Cong was still nostalgic, and perhaps because he did not want to cause trouble in the court again at this time, he did not knock them out of dust.
It is really a taboo to use the power of the minister to touch the power of the monarch...
Jia Cong is willing to bind himself to the monarchy, that is he is wise enough.
But it does not mean that he is willing to be forced to retreat by the prime minister.
These are two different things...
Perhaps in terms of the position of ministers, when sages reach Jia Cong's level, they should understand their original intentions.
However, they forgot that the king is the king.
Being with the king is like a tiger.
Zhao Qingshan looked at Chai Liang and reminded him word by word: "Wenxiao, after going to Annan, you must do your best to return to Beijing as soon as possible."
Chai Liang smiled bitterly, and said nothing more. He bowed with Zhao Qingshan, Lin Qinghe and others, and then walked out.
...
"Master, Young Master Chai has left the capital."
In Xian'an Palace, Jia Cong was visiting King Wu and received rewards from the eunuch of the East Palace, the eunuch of the East Palace.
He paused, nodded, and said nothing.
Chai Liang and Zhao Qingshan are different. This person is tolerant and tenacious, and has great ambitions.
To be continued...
