Demon Lord

Several cabinet aristocrats used to consider themselves excellent politicians, but their common sense of "territorial governance" seemed childish and ridiculous to Roddy.

"I have already said about the 'banks'. Banks in the future will need to cooperate with those commercial banks in the current Karen Kingdom. They will pave the way for the issuance of 'banknotes' in the future."

Roddy said as he drank, every time he talked about these things, he would make his mouth dry, because people in this era are extremely lacking in economic knowledge, and many people do n’t even know the interest rate on loans, let alone related businesses such as bank lending. Already. Fortunately, he did not come to popular science today. He wrote down the relevant knowledge on paper and went back to wait for the group of people to figure it out on their own.

"What we need most right now is to improve the 'Civil Service Examination' system." Roddy said in a serious tone about the focus of today's meeting: "At the same time, we must control all speech ... instill the content of the Cabinet Order from top to bottom, There is only one thing to be publicized in the future-to tell the people across the country that it is no longer nobles who will manage them in the future, as long as they are outstanding, they can become managers themselves! "

This sentence made all the nobles in the cabinet hold back, but Sally sat there thoughtfully. After a few seconds, she asked, "Rody, do you mean ... trying to open up the way for civilians?"

"Correct."

Roddy nodded and explained: "Before that, the lord divided the land and ruled, and the upward passages were completely controlled by the nobles. Only with military achievements or great contributions can they become nobles-but think about it, Are all the nobles really good at management and administration? "

"Prime Minister Roddy, even though many of the nobles are incompetent, the civilians don't know a single word ... what administrative management do they know?"

Count Black asked, puzzled.

"Civilians don't know words, is it because the nobles have monopolized knowledge?"

Roddy's eyelids were raised slightly, "Is it difficult to read? It's not difficult, but why are many people illiterate? Because under the protection of most lords and nobles, only nobles are eligible to learn this kind of knowledge. Common people want to learn and pay Unbearable price. "

"Human beings want to develop, and the selection of high-level governing managers is limited to a small circle that does not expand very much. It is completely self-destructive."

His words made several cabinet aristocrats meditate. When they reached their position, they saw more of them naturally. Most importantly, they are all politicians, and they are more sensitive to the wind direction and sense of smell. One of them said, "That prime minister means ... the future cabinet can even be accessed by ordinary people?"

"The cabinet itself is a temporary product. It is not easy for us as a few to coordinate everything in the kingdom, but I will only answer your question now: ordinary people-especially ordinary people with excellent governing abilities. If his knowledge and Moving power can strengthen the country's power. Why can't it enter the center of the cabinet? "

Roddy pointed to himself: "You know, I'm not a hereditary noble myself."

Others dare not take this remark. After all, the "blood theory" still has some markets in this era. Many old nobles ... descendants of the founding fathers such as "Rousse Fron" often look down on those new nobles. Not to mention civilians of mud-legged origin.

This sense of superiority has been accumulated over hundreds of years of human development in this world. No one refuted Roddy's remarks because he first had the ability to let everyone sit down and think about the nature of the problem, not because he was sitting on the side of the "nobleman" with his buttocks and had to defend the interests of the class without a brain.

Sally's face was serious, she also belonged to the kind that understood that Roddy was right, but was emotionally unacceptable-so she first asked a more acute question: "If ordinary people enter the cabinet in the future, So is he going to accept the book and become a noble? "

"No, that's the point I want to talk about ... we divide people into classes, and this is not a problem, because there is such a hierarchy in any society. But members of management should not be restricted by class. What we need is Smart people come to manage, it has nothing to do with his identity. Ordinary people, then ordinary people, there are smart people in the aristocracy, why should you refuse? "

"If your Majesty said, if you deliberately emphasize that only the" nobility "can enter the management, then the" civil servant assessment system "will have no meaning to implement, and people will only try to become aristocracy, not those who study the" civil servant assessment " know how."

Roddy finally pointed to the round table in front of him: "I hope that all of us consider issues based on the interests of the majority of the people. But unfortunately, people tend to defend their class interests. If I am not here in the future, You are not here, but for the younger generations who are still aristocratic ... will they still consider the people ’s livelihood as they are today? ”

The nobles frowned and thought about this problem. In fact, before Charles II, the atmosphere of the entire Karen kingdom had begun to fall. The greatest role of the nobles is to fight wars. Long-lasting peace has consumed the wills of the nobles, and has spent all day enjoying themselves. The only courageous martial arts are used to kill each other ... The greatest role of the monarch is to balance the scale of the forces between the various nobles and ensure that they are in a dominant position.

If this country continues to do so in the future, what is the significance of cooperation among the dragons? What's the point of centralized power today?

Sally probably figured out what Roddy meant, and she asked tentatively: "So ... Do you want someone in the cabinet to always take care of the interests of the people at the bottom?"

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Roddy took a deep breath. He used to be only a otaku who played games online, but he made heroes in the current situation. Now standing in this position, those political knowledge that has been disdainful can be felt at this moment. Deep meaning.

The strength of the people determines the foundation of the lower building. The top building has no underlying foundation, and it can only be an air tower. It is impossible to eliminate this class gap between "upper and lower levels." The only thing that can be done now is to work on "ideology."

"Man does not betray his own class, whether he is clever or stupid. If this country is to flourish for a long time, it is necessary to consider the interests of the lower classes first-to be honest, at the beginning it was very Easy, but over time, people sitting here tend to move away from the ground floor. "

Roddy readily took out a form with statistics on the current spar guns of the Karen Kingdom: "Our individuals are not as powerful as the Dragons, but we can develop weapons that are sufficient to deter the Dragons-who will develop them? We rely on intelligence. People rely on people who are willing to work hard, as well as ordinary people who transport resources. Without them, these things are empty talk. "

"The Cabinet is now a 'ruling group'. My idea is to eventually set up the 'Parliament' with the Cabinet at the core. But there are two parliaments, one is the upper legislature composed of nobles, and the other is the lower house composed of civilians. The cabinet Members must have both members of the House of Commons to form. "

As he said, he took out a schematic diagram and started distributing it to cabinet members. This method is actually emulating the British political system. After all, there are still countless nobles in the Karen Kingdom. If they directly deprive them of their power, it will definitely be rebellious. Therefore, the "nobility" class and group must be maintained in the political system, but at the same time, ordinary people must be accommodated. Although the start is definitely difficult, this step is the foundation of the development of the entire kingdom, and there is no room for compromise.

Sally had known about the "Constitutional Monarchy" before, so it was no surprise that Roddy had come up with the plan at the moment. The members of the Cabinet also understood after seeing that ... This kingdom is no longer a ruler, but a political structure that has been thoroughly washed.

Are they happy? In fact, none of the big aristocrats present is a fool ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ After careful consideration of Rody's words, they can confirm that this is the most reasonable solution to the long-term prosperity of the kingdom. If they are unhappy, it is because they cannot betray their own class and cannot accept the drastic reduction of the power of the aristocracy.

"Mr. Prime Minister, what does this 'Supreme court' mean? Is it not contained within the framework of Parliament?"

Someone asked a question, and Roddy explained: "In previous cases, the ruling was ruled by the lord, but the result is that noble crimes often do not cost much, and civilian crimes are punished severely. In the long run, the accumulation of contradictions will often The consequences are bad. So I hope that the body that decides all cases in the future will be completely independent of other bodies-including the Cabinet, the upper and lower parliaments, and even Her Majesty. "

"In other words, if I have committed a crime, I will still be tried by the Supreme Court, and neither my Majesty nor you have the right to forgive my responsibilities. Everything is subject to the Supreme Court's decision."

Roddy's words surprised cabinet members. They thought that the "Prime Minister of the Cabinet" was already the pinnacle of power, and Ling Yue was almost above King Sally. Didn't expect that Roddy would be willing to take the initiative to create a department that would hinder himself?

"The monarch establishes the constitution, the Prime Minister is elected by a group or party with a majority in Parliament, the Cabinet is convened by the Prime Minister and approved by the House of Lords before it can be formed. The Supreme Court is independent of the Monarch and Parliament, which will be the top of the future of our kingdom Three powers belong. "

This is not a "separation of three powers". In fact, most of the power is still in parliament, but this has completely taken the whole from a backward lords separatist system into a big step.

"Only by guaranteeing judicial independence can we ensure 'fairness' in the legal sense. Otherwise the future constitution will be a joke."
