Aspirations for Nation and Beauty Chapter 7: The last moment of Dingding Section 139

Using the military as a touchstone does not seem to be a very good choice, but Wufeng still thinks that he can try it selectively. Of course, this may wrong Liang Chongxin, but the shocking effect it brings is undoubtedly amazing When the leaders of the military generals are held accountable by the Imperial Supervisory Council just because they executed His Majesty's orders and exceeded their authority, they may even be liable for financial compensation. This is simply earth-shaking for living in a country where imperial power is supreme. Great changes, of course, Wufeng does not intend to let the power of the Imperial Supervisory Council override his imperial power. According to the power given to him by the empire, he has the right to pardon anyone or any crime, and Wufeng just wants to be in both It is necessary to strike an unspeakable balance between officials and people, especially some privileged classes and officials with real power, to realize the importance of obeying the law, and to make those idealists who try to limit imperial power realize that at this stage, imperial power is still everything. The foundation of the superstructure, without this point, is a castle in the air, water without a source.

Power is what everyone longs for, but Wufeng learned a famous saying from a philosopher in the Western Continent, that if any power is not restricted, it will fall into the abyss of hell, without exception, Wufeng is right about this sentence I appreciate the words very much. Although he has reservations on the issue of imperial power, it is only a reservation. He also believes that with the advancement of the times, the political system he has established now may not be suitable for the future, and reforms are inevitable. Yes, but Wufeng thinks that at least for now, while he is still exercising his ruling power, the current system can ensure that the power of the empire is displayed to the maximum and can serve the empire. To win more rights and interests for the Tang nation.

As the time for Wufeng's accession to the throne is getting closer and closer, in addition to the formation of the four major power organs of the empire, Wufeng also focuses on the two representatives of the Imperial Senate and the Imperial Civic Council set by Guji Public opinion is also an institution for the central government of the empire to communicate public opinion. The two so-called representative institutions of the people in the empire are actually more born out of the parliamentary system of the Kingdom of Leeds in the Western Continent and the Famini Empire. The Kingdom of Leeds is called the House of Lords and the House of Commons. The Famini Empire called it the Senate and the House of Representatives. It's just that the composition of the two countries is slightly different.

The House of Lords in the Kingdom of Leeds is naturally composed of upper-class nobles, including a considerable number of high-level religious figures, while the House of Commons is mainly composed of representatives of the business class and some representatives of citizens. The power of the two houses was originally held by the House of Lords. However, with the changes in history, the two houses have been formed to be equal, and now there is even a trend that the power of the House of Commons exceeds that of the House of Lords. The Imperial Congress of the Famini Empire is nominally composed of two chambers, but in fact the Senate and the House of Representatives are more divided by region than by class. The Senate is mainly composed of representatives elected in equal numbers from each region of the empire. The House of Representatives is elected according to the proportion of the population, from the perspective of representative composition. In areas with developed agriculture, the traditional aristocratic gentry dominates, while in emerging areas, representatives of the business class dominate. In large cities and ports like the capital, financial oligarchs, financial aristocrats, and colonial aristocrats play a pivotal role. Their spokespersons firmly control these representatives.

Wufeng and Guji have also studied the different systems of the two countries many times. It should be said that whether it is the parliament or the Congress, this kind of representative body elected or elected by the people is more or less important to the royal power of the two countries. Less restrictive. Especially in the Kingdom of Leeds, this phenomenon is more obvious, but the Famini Empire’s method of electing public opinion representatives based on regional administrative divisions and populations is more recognized by Wufeng. At least this is from more and more democratic channels. intention of.

After repeated negotiations, Wufeng finally adopted the name of the place proposed by Gu Ji, still called the Imperial Senate and the Imperial Citizens' Chamber. The representatives of the Imperial Senate will be elected by the nobles conferred by His Majesty the Emperor in each county of the empire, and two of them will be elected by each county. Five from the Zhongzhou Special Administrative Region, and two appointed by the Emperor himself. The representatives of the Imperial Civic Council are selected according to the population ratio. In principle, there is still one representative for every one million people, and counties with less than one million people automatically get one place. In a sparsely populated county like Maine County, there is only one civic representative, while in a large county like Jiangnan County, a prefecture like Yuhang has three civic representatives, and the entire Jiangnan County even has sixteen representatives. The number of places, and this election method can only be temporarily elected by the town to the government, the government to the county, and cannot be elected like the western mainland countries.

As for the power of the Imperial Senate and the Imperial Citizens' Chamber, Wufeng, Gu Ji, and later brought in Xiao Tang, Su Qin Molun and others to discuss the power distribution of the last two houses in this system, and they finally agreed. It is confirmed that the powers of the two houses are equal at present. They have the right to know the annual work plan and annual budget of the Imperial Council, and have the right to consult the Imperial Council, the Privy Council, the Supervisory Council, and the Trial Council on various matters. The reason may not be accepted after reporting to His Majesty the Emperor for approval. The two houses also have the right to make suggestions to the four major power organs and even the emperor, and the four power organs must pay attention to the suggestions put forward by the two houses, especially the suggestions that more than half of the representatives seconded, and give written replies to answer the handling status.

Of course, all of this is just a plan. After all, there are less than five real nobles in the empire, that is, those who have been recognized by Wufeng. After the framework is set up, it will be elected and produced at the local level in accordance with the regulations.

With the introduction of the final election system of the Imperial Senate and the Imperial Civic Council and the release of the latest "Imperial Noble Canonization System", it immediately caused waves like a tsunami throughout the entire empire. Gu Ji, the two instigators, and Xiao Tang, Su Qin and Mo Lun, the three later participants, did not expect that these two institutions that did not actually confer much real power and the one that was originally used to encourage socially educated people to participate in society A policy of development can arouse so much local interest.

Whether it is the land aristocratic gentry or the business class elite, or the citizens and craftsmen, they are all curious about this new institution and system, especially the Imperial Senate and the "Imperial Nobility Canonization System" are almost the original The huge aristocratic class of the Tanghe Empire was excluded. The so-called lord status they obtained was just a supernumerary aristocratic status, and they could not obtain the right to vote and be elected as representatives of the Senate of the Empire. Nobility recognized by the imperial emperor canonization.

The most important thing is that the "Imperial Nobility Enfeoffment System" clearly stipulates that anyone who is a citizen of the empire, regardless of his class of origin, or occupational wealth, as long as he has made outstanding contributions to the politics, economy, culture and art of the empire, can declare and request the empire by himself. The Ministry of Etiquette of the Government Affairs Council will give a preliminary review, and those who pass the preliminary review will be handed over to the imperial emperor for official canonization. The canonization system has also been specially explained, especially the quite specific requirements for the canonization standards of culture, education, science and technology, industry and commerce, trade, etc., and excellent people are encouraged to apply.

On the contrary, the Imperial Civic Council did not cause much controversy. After all, the policy and system of His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Empire to encourage business and industry have already been quite obvious in Western Xinjiang, and the business class has also provided for His Highness King Qin's not-so-rich finances. Considerable support is also an important factor for His Royal Highness King Qin to win the hearts of the people of the empire. Anyone with a discerning eye knows that if the Imperial Senate still has a considerable initiative in the hands of His Majesty the Emperor alone, there will be a considerable number of representatives of the Citizens Council. Part of it is controlled by the business class who have a great say in the counties and prefectures.

The emergence of the two major electoral institutions in the empire also marks the official establishment of the regime structure of the new dynasty. Among the six imperial courts, the Council of Government Affairs and the Privy Council are undoubtedly the dominant ones~IndoMTL.com~ They have mastered the power of government and military affairs, respectively They play their own roles in their respective fields, while the Supervisory Yuan and the Trial Yuan have the supervisory and judicial powers. In particular, the establishment of the principle that the Supervisory Yuan and the Trial Yuan are directly responsible to His Majesty the Emperor independently of the two major systems of the military and government also Let the Supervisory Council and the Court of Trial have a status that can compete with the Council of Government Affairs and the Privy Council. Although they are still far apart in terms of power, this is a huge change after all. The emergence of the Senate and the Civic Chamber also marked the emergence of the imperial democratic system. No matter how powerful the imperial power is, the seeds of democracy have been sown, and it will slowly take root. There is no way to suppress this tenacious bud of democracy.

When Lao Min and Zhu Zimei handed over the schedule of various activities and ceremonies for the grade celebration a week later on the table in Wufeng's study, Wufeng realized that this day will inevitably come, and he will Climb to the top and become the unique master of the largest nation and the largest empire in the Eastern Continent, and with the arrival of the crown, there will be both joy and trouble, testing yourself as a novice on the throne, what will happen to you, and how you should deal with it.

Seeing the future imperial majesty staring blankly at the stack of activities and ritual procedures in front of him, Lao Min and Zhu Zimei were embarrassed to break each other's fugue for a moment, but just silently waited and waited Watching His Highness Qin Wang with a strange expression wake up from the fugue.
