Chapter 419 Second restructuring

Gao Chong smiled and said, "Songnian, I accept you as the first prime minister of the cabinet. You must discuss the matters of this cabinet."

Cai Songnian obviously knew about this matter a long time ago and did not politely nod and agreed.

Li Miao said: "Prince, after the cabinet was established, how should we resolve the differences when dealing with the problem?"

"Vote! The chief minister Cai Songnian has two votes, and the others each have one vote, a total of seven votes. If four votes agree, the resolution can be passed; then reported to Kaiping King for signature.

Again, King Kaiping has the right to veto it, and Wang Jia can reject the cabinet's resolution and ask the cabinet to re-form. If it cannot be passed three times in a row, Wang Jia has the right to re-form the cabinet.

At the same time, any decree of the King of Kings must also be approved by the cabinet. If the cabinet rejects the order of the King of Kings for three consecutive times, the King of Kings will continue to be implemented. The cabinet can impeach the King of Kings. If the impeachment is successful, it can also be elected by the selection of a new Kaiping King; but after the replacement of the new King of Kings, a new cabinet will be formed and the personnel to re-determine the auxiliary government will be re-determined."

"Boom!" The people below heard this and there was a big chaos. This cabinet could actually impeach and replace the king's chariot. Isn't this too ruthless?

Gao Chong said with a frown: "Silent, quiet! Everyone, this cabinet is not yet mature, it is just my idea. This period of time is only a trial. After the implementation is completed for a period of time, all the conditions will be met before it will be officially implemented.

Now you might as well think more and take a look. If you have any words, just say it clearly. If the law stipulates it, it will be really too late."

When everyone heard the conversation, the whole hall was like a vegetable market. Soon people became more and more intense and even quarreled.

Gao Chong just watched quietly on it. Only when everyone was quarreling was really unreasonable, he patted the table gently to remind everyone to pay attention.

Of course, this debate cannot be concluded in a short while. Fortunately, Wang Jia said that it is only a trial now, and there is still time to correct it, so this decree has no obstacles and was successfully passed.

Gao Chong looked at everyone and said, "There is another change, which is the equipment of local officials. Local officials in the Song Dynasty were prefects and prefects. At the same time, a second-ranked magistrate was established. This magistrate had no right, and was used to supervise the magistrate and prefects.

Below these two people are Tongzhi's military and national affairs, that is, Tongzhi; and the court's transferee is responsible for transporting all local money and grain to the capital.

This can effectively prevent rebellion, but it greatly weakens the local rights. It makes the main trunk of the big tree in Dasong very tall, but the branches are very weak and cannot withstand the wind and rain from the outside world."

Everyone nodded uncontrollably after hearing this, Gao Chong continued: "If we want to change this situation, we must delegate some rights. The local government is still the prefect or the prefect; the three people, Tongzong and Tongzhi, are responsible.

However, the rights of the three people need to be changed. The prefect and the prefect are the heads of the local government, responsible for the overall situation and the appointment of officials. The responsibilities and transfer commanders of the magistrate are responsible for money and grain, whether it is taxes, various expenses, or economic development, it is the matter of the magistrate.

The Tongzhi was responsible for the local chariots, yamen runners, constables and other garrisons and robbery forces, and all the food and salary of these people were responsible for the Tongzong."

Everyone nodded secretly after hearing this, and it was clear that although the magistrate had the greatest power, they had no money, grain and soldiers. Tongzhi and Tongzhi had military and food, but the official's appointment and removal power was in the hands of the magistrate and the magistrate, so they could clearly distinguish them.

Gao Chongyou said to everyone: "Our Kaiping Army's army implements independent management, and officials from various places have no right to mobilize the army. Their food and salary will be arranged uniformly by the Logistics and Equipment Department, and the military operation orders will be issued by the Counselor Military Machinery Department.

All counties and counties cannot mobilize troops, but if there is an emergency, the magistrate, the magistrate, and the magistrate can issue orders at the same time and ask the army to cooperate. Afterwards, the situation must be explained to the Counselor's Military Affairs Department."

"Hiss--" Everyone took a breath, and this time they completely separated the army and the local government. Local officials could not control the army's food, salary and promotion, so how could they collude with the army? The army's command and logistics are all in the hands of the central government, and there is no coup. It's so amazing!

However, this is a good way to prevent it from getting bigger. Of course, everyone will not disagree and agree happily.

The political changes in the Kaiping Army caused a sensation in Zhending. Even Li felt incredible, not to mention others.

She called her son in front of her and said in confusion: "Dalang, now everyone is afraid that the power is too small and they are desperately trying to block the power on themselves. Why do you do the opposite? You must have no problem with yourself, but aren't you afraid that your descendants will be under the cabinet and become puppets?"

Gao Chong smiled slightly and said, "Mom, let's sit down and talk!"

As they said that, the two sat down and set off to have a long talk, Ouyang Luan quickly filled tea for her mother-in-law and husband.

"Mom, you are a person who reads history books. Emperors of all dynasties want to ensure that their rule is difficult for thousands of years, and have also thought of many ways.

Some of them have the means to tyrannically capture the soldiers of the world to prevent others from rebelling; they have the kindness to support the people of the world so that they can survive without taking risks; some of them are dictatorial and monopolize power, and everything is up to one's own decisions, making people unable to rebel.

All these things cannot avoid the change of dynasties. It is really time moving forward and things are developing. If we cannot keep up with the progress of the times, we will definitely be eliminated."

Li heard what he said in a fresh way. Most of the changes in dynasties in history fell on human factors, including unworthy descendants, treacherous ministers and rioters, harems, and foreign relatives interfered in politics. He never said that he would be eliminated by the times.

"Dalang, I have read so many historical books, including Sima Xianggong's Zizhi Tongjian, which allows us to learn from people and history. What do you mean by what you mean by being eliminated by the times?"

Gao Chong laughed and said, "Mother, no one can control his descendants, no one can control his treacherous ministers and rioters, and no one can avoid his relatives in the harem. No matter how much we try, these things will happen. But these are not the direct causes of defeat. They just accelerated the process of defeat.

The change of any dynasty is because there is something wrong with its own system and it is no longer suitable for the development of the times, so it will inevitably be eliminated.

Just like the attention of Taizu of this dynasty to establish the Xiang army was good, but now it has become the biggest disadvantage. 70 million yuan of money was used in the Song Dynasty every year, but it was still far from enough, and nothing else could be done.

My cabinet not only wants to restrict imperial power, they mainly listen to the voices of all classes through the Grand Parliament, and then moderately adjust the country's policies to make him move forward safely.

Of course what my mother said makes sense, so I also arranged people from various factions in the cabinet, one is to let them learn to discuss and compromise, and the other is to avoid being controlled by one person. If the descendants of later generations cannot control this cabinet, then be a puppet with peace of mind! At least your life is worry-free."

The amount of information in this passage is quite large, and even Li can't accept it for a while. Gao Chong said with a smile: "Mom, after all, it's just a trial. Let's take a look at the effect first. What's up to me now? No one can make a fuss.

Although Mr. Ouyang is unwilling to hold an official position, he is still very concerned about the formulation of the law. He has been studying and improving this law for several years. When it is launched, it will be another strong guarantee for us."

"Law? The prince wants to govern the country according to law?" Even Ouyang Luan felt a little incredible. This was completely different from his usual education!

"Yes! It's just a rule of law! It's feasible if the law is not prohibited! The rights of the law are supreme, even beyond the imperial power, and anyone, including the emperor, must abide by it. If the emperor violates the law and commits the same crime as the common people, he will be impeached and even forced to step down."

"Ah——" Everyone was stunned by this sentence. Li quickly said, "Dalang, don't mess around. Nowadays, the elite class has been a long time Confucianism. If you just say that you govern the country according to law, will the world be in chaos?"

"Mom doesn't have to worry at all. Is my law the center or some Confucian ideas? The law provides them with guarantees that these people will not only not object, but will also support them more."

"Anyway, I'm a little evil when I hear what you said, so it's better to be cautious." Li still persuaded him a little worriedly.

Gao Chong laughed and said, "What I said is that I am a mature and upholding the country; I must follow it. Let's do this! This matter does not need to be announced at once. We will first leave the established laws to everyone to judge and make mistakes. When it is improved, everyone will agree. It is not too late to implement them in full."

After hearing that his son listened to his opinion, Li smiled and nodded to let him go.

After the Kaiping Army system was determined, Gao Chong and Cai Songnian arranged a lot of political workers to go down to preach the Kaiping Army system, arrange and supervise everyone's understanding and implementation.

The political change has just been announced, and no one has ever turned the tables on the contrary, Gao Chong began military reform again. First of all, the Political Department, the General Staff Department, and the Logistics Department were officially listed, and they were directly responsible for King Kaiping.

The three departments were not experienced in the past, but the Kaiping Army had achieved great success in experiments, so no one resisted. Cai Songnian, Li Hong and Liu Ziyi were still the leaders of these three departments.

Then Gao Chong reformed the army on the grounds that the original military configuration was unreasonable and the official position was very vague. One was commanding, or the commander had several levels, and the positioning of the general was too low, which was not conducive to exerting everyone's enthusiasm.
