"The list just now is the list of the cabinet, and there is a lower house under the cabinet. The members of the lower house are served by local scholars, farmers, businessmen!"
"They have the power to supervise and advise the cabinet, and the specific system is similar to the cabinet!"
What does this amount to? Isn't it just the relics found around the emperor?
Just give me some advice, it's useless. No matter how many times you try this kind of thing, it won't be of any use to you, and it won't have any impact on their power!
"My Holy Emperor!"
Zhu Gaoyan looked at the reactions of the ministers and nodded with satisfaction. Again, as long as you don't touch their interests, they will not object. If you can give them benefits, then they will definitely do it with both hands and feet. Agree.
Although the cabinet will definitely take the lead when it is just established, as time goes by, the House of Commons will gradually take its place!
Because the House of Commons can report the cabinet to him, the emperor, at any time!
Although the final decision-making power rests with the cabinet, the cabinet has to listen to the various policy recommendations of the House of Commons, just like all final approvals require their own confirmation!
"Since the ministers in the court have arranged positions, shouldn't the queen also have a position?"
It seems that there should indeed be one, at least one should be included in the cabinet!
While the ministers were thinking, Su Wu immediately reacted!
"Your Majesty, the Queen has a distinguished status. If she wants to serve as a member of parliament, she should be in the cabinet, and..."
In feudal society, status is very important, and the queen is the mother of the world. If she is in the cabinet, she should not be on an equal footing with the chief minister!
"The Queen can also be a member of the cabinet, but does it still need to be a little special? So I decided that the Queen will be a lifelong member of the cabinet! It is an extra quota and does not occupy any one of the one hundred and eight people. Bit!"
Having said this, the ministers thought about it and realized that there was no conflict with their rights. The addition of one more lifetime member was just one more vote when voting, and it did not have much impact.
"Everything will be according to His Majesty's wishes!"
"I don't have any objections!"
"Your Majesty, if it is just like this, I think it is not enough to highlight the dignity of the Queen's identity!"
At this moment, Su Wu suddenly spoke again,
"Since all decisions made by the cabinet are responsible to His Majesty, then everything made by the House of Commons is responsible to the Queen!"
"This is His Majesty's Cabinet, the Queen's House of Commons!"
"Well, that makes sense!"
Zhu Gaoying nodded with satisfaction, Su Wu, you understand my thoughts.
In the future, the status of the House of Commons will exceed that of the cabinet.
With such a transcendent existence, it was impossible for Zhu Gaotian to leave him alone, so he naturally handed him over to someone close to him, and the best candidate was of course the queen Zhang Yingzhen sitting next to him.
"My dear friends, what do you think?"
"What Mr. Su said is absolutely true. Since Your Majesty intends to let the Empress participate in politics, why not make the House of Commons the first step for the Empress to enter government affairs!"
He is just a member of Parliament and has no power at all, so it is naturally impossible for them to oppose it.
"In that case, ministers, please go back and prepare. Starting from tomorrow afternoon, the cabinet meeting will begin!"
…
"Everything is difficult at the beginning. Now that the first step of reform has been taken, the rest depends on their execution ability and degree of execution!"
Zhu Gaoying was taking a leisurely walk in the back garden, but he was still thinking in his mind, how could Jin Yiwei fall into his trap without noticing?
"Your Majesty, everything is going well now, so what are you worried about?"
"I have so many things to worry about!"
Zhu Gaotian shook his head and sighed.
It has been more than ten days since Zhu Gaoyang sent General Biaoqi out, and he should have arrived in Liangzhou two weeks ago. I don't know what the situation is there, which is really worrying.
There is also the matter of the Jinyiwei. The previous leader of the Jinyiwei has always been his brother, and Zhu Gaoyun killed his brother himself.
It is really difficult to use such a Jin Yiwei.
"Counting the time, the war in Liangzhou should be about to begin!"
"Yeah, it's been a long time. I heard it's been snowing in Liangzhou for the past few days. I don't know if I can hold on!"
Although Liangzhou City was a strategic location, there were only a few tens of thousands of defenders. Facing the enemy's hundreds of thousands of troops, Zhu Gaotian still felt uncertain.
So even though he knew the danger, he planned to send the escort general to disturb the rear.
"Let this winter pass quickly!"
Things will calm down when spring comes next year.
"By the way, my beloved concubine, I wonder if you are free this afternoon. Can you accompany me to the Ministry of Industry to take a look?"
Ministry of Industry?
Is it the place where His Majesty said that valuable weapons for the country can be made?
I heard that the steam engine developed by His Majesty is a small machine that can rival hundreds of horses.
Zhang Yingzhen is very curious, but now the Ministry of Industry has become a top-secret base. Except for people from the Ministry of Industry and those with the emperor's decree, no one is allowed to approach!
This also led to Zhang Yingzhen never going there.
"Of course I'm free. I happen to be bored during this period of time. Otherwise, I would also like to go and see the little sparrow brought here by Your Majesty today!"
"Little sparrow?"
Hearing this description, Zhu Gaotian's head went blank. What a little sparrow. Did I bring the bird back?
Seeing Zhu Gaotian's puzzled look, Zhang Yingzhen covered her face and laughed.
"Your Majesty, your memory is not very good. Have you forgotten that when you went to western Sichuan, you brought a brothel girl with you?"
Speaking of this, Zhu Gaotian instantly understood what the little sparrow meant.
"You brought her back and locked her in the palace all day without teasing her. Aren't you just like a little sparrow locked in a cage?"
It should be said that it is worse than a sparrow in a cage.
"She was originally planned to be brought back and given to Su Wu as a reward, but she didn't want her, so wouldn't she have forgotten it?"
Deng Rong and Zhu Gaoyan mentioned it to Su Wu two days ago, but they just forgot about it in the blink of an eye.
"Your Majesty, you may not know that when I heard that Deng Rong was staying in the palace, she almost got sick from boredom!"
Deng Rong had a pitiful life experience. After many twists and turns, she was finally admitted to the palace by Zhu Gaoyuan, but was left out in the cold. This made Zhang Yingzhen feel a little pity.
After all, they are also women, so they are more emotional.
"Haha, I know. After a few days, I will see if there are any ministers of good character in the court. Will Deng Rong betrothed to his head office?" (End of Chapter)
