Douluo: I loaded the Odyssey Kayn voice pack
Chapter 635 Cabinet established (transition)
Ning Fengzhi suddenly didn't know what to say, and Lu Yuan then continued, "Okay, dad, it's too early for me to have the heir prince, and these are all illusory things. It really makes me sad." Hundreds of millions of people in the empire willingly support our rule..."
"We can only make this country better. These matters will be discussed later. The most important thing now is to promulgate these two decrees."
Ning Fengzhi immediately had no choice but to say, "In that case, okay..."
The discussion between Lu Yuan and Ning Fengzhi was put aside for the time being. On the same day, Liulicheng issued two imperial edicts, causing an uproar.
The first imperial decree was to move the capital from Liulic City to Tianying City. This made the noble ministers and even the people of Liulic City quite unhappy when they first heard the decree.
After all, Liuli City was still Tiandou City before. When it was the imperial capital of Tiandou Empire, after tens of thousands of years, the scale, structure, and level of luxury of the city were considered to be the best in Douluo Continent.
Even though Tiandou City had been attacked twice by waves of soul beasts before, and the city walls and gates were rebuilt, a large abyss appeared where the original gates were.
But even so, today's Liulic City is still prosperous.
Even Star Luo City, the imperial capital of the Star Luo Empire, and Wuhun City, the headquarters of Wuhun Palace, are not as prosperous as Tiandou City before.
After all, the Star Luo Empire is too strict. Even their imperial capital, entertainment and markets, are not as dissolute as Tiandou City, let alone Wuhun City. As the headquarters of Wuhun Palace, it is a solemn and solemn place. There is no room for nonsense. .
Now Lu Yuan wants to move the capital to Tianying City?
Where is Tianying City?
Even Lu Yuan's hometown and fiefdom were a small city in a border province before that. The small city formerly known as Notting City was far inferior to Soto City in the Barak Kingdom.
What's more, compared with the former Tiandou City and the current Liuli City?
However, Lu Yuan had already issued an edict and expressed his determination by saying, "The emperor will guard the country, and the king will die in the country."
But even if these words are impassioned, it is not good for the noble ministers who moved the capital and even the common people.
Wouldn't it be nice to enjoy the glory, wealth, and live and work in peace and contentment in the rear area far away from the front lines, away from the risks of war?
But Lu Yuan had no intention of soliciting their ideas. He understood better than anyone the principle of living in sorrow and dying in happiness. If you want to be at ease, just go to another city.
I want to enjoy the prosperity of the imperial capital, but don't want to bear the responsibility of defending the empire. How can there be such a double standard in the world?
Moreover, Lu Yuan did not say that the capital would be moved to Tianying City immediately. It was expected that they would move the capital five years later, when the craftsmen and the army had almost expanded Tianying City.
After the expansion, Tianying City will definitely not be as shabby as a small city.
If you still don’t want to get over it...
Either you stay in Liuli City, far away from the center of the empire, or you follow Lu Yuan and move the capital to Tianying City to guard the country.
Lu Yuan didn't force anything as simple as that.
It was imperative for him to move the capital.
The second imperial edict was to abolish the position of prime minister in the empire, but at the same time, establish an imperial cabinet.
What is this imperial cabinet?
The answer is given in the imperial edict. The imperial cabinet is composed of seven imperial ministers. According to their status, they are divided into first assistant, first assistant and five groups of assistants. They are in charge of all major affairs of the empire. After the imperial political affairs have been reviewed and screened by the cabinet members, no decision can be made. , or if it is a grand and important event, it will be submitted to His Majesty for processing.
At the same time, once major events such as imperial taxation, foreign wars, etc. arise, the cabinet will work with His Majesty to make decisions and vote on how to deal with them.
Among them, each member of the cabinet has one vote regardless of status, and His Majesty currently has only one vote. However, when the votes cast by the seven cabinet members and His Majesty the Emperor are equal, the decision will be made by the Emperor's single vote.
This directly caused an uproar. After all, the meaning of this imperial edict almost meant that if more than four members of the cabinet reached a consensus, even the emperor would agree with their decision.
The power of a minister to overpower the emperor is so huge, although it takes more than four people to reach a consensus to accomplish this achievement.
But it’s very possible!
Next, how the seven cabinet members belong has become a matter of concern to many noble ministers in Liuli City.
However, cabinet members, a position with great power and honor, must be filled by His Majesty’s close associates personally selected...
However, to everyone's surprise, cabinet members indeed need His Majesty's permission to serve, but there are conditions.
The seven cabinet members must be divided into four civil servants and three military generals, and only those who have the title of Imperial Marquis or above and the emperor's permission can enter the cabinet.
Moreover, if there are no major issues in the cabinet, cabinet members can be replaced once every ten years. Once there is an obvious violation of the rules by a cabinet member, His Majesty can personally order to strip him of his cabinet status and then select the previous candidate members to join the cabinet.
Four civil servants and three military generals must have at least a title of marquis or above. This means that if they are not powerful men of the empire before, they must be powerful soul masters who have made great contributions to the empire before they can enter the cabinet.
However, there are also many noble ministers who meet the requirements, and they are gearing up to compete for cabinet positions.
The imperial edict directly appointed the current national preceptor Ning Fengzhi as the chief assistant. This did not surprise everyone.
Ning Fengzhi and the Qibao Glazed Sect are His Majesty's in-laws, and they are also the key to His Majesty's success in winning the throne. Who else is the first assistant to Ning Fengzhi?
If it weren't for Ning Fengzhi, probably except for the lucky guy who got the position of chief minister, the other ministers and nobles of the empire would be resentful of this.
Next, Wen Chen lost the position of first assistant. Although the competition has greatly increased with one less person, everyone still has high expectations.
However, they were disappointed because the next three members of the civil cabinet were directly appointed by Lu Yuan to the three educational committee members of the former Tiandou Royal Academy and now the Tianying Royal Academy: Meng Shenji, Bai Baoshan and Zhilin. Douluo, serves as a member of the cabinet.
The remaining positions, only the three cabinet members on the general side, have not yet been determined. His Majesty has decided to meet with the ministers in the Grand Assembly Hall the next day to select the last three cabinet members.
At this time, the five founding heroes on the military general's side who had originally supported Lu Yuan were all excitedly preparing.
Moreover, the families of four of them all made a decision at the same time.
"Hurry and prepare a big gift and go visit General Agni!"
Only Yan Xian sat in the mansion and shook his head, "Hey, it's a pity that I don't have enough strength, and Zhu Yin didn't win His Majesty's heart either..."
He knew very well that he was just a soul saint, even one of the five founding generals who had supported Lu Yuan, and he was not qualified to compete for the position of a cabinet member.
But in fact, if his daughter Zhu Yin can win the heart of His Majesty, even if he is a soul saint, no one will have any objection to joining the cabinet.
After all, Lu Yuan is now the emperor. In the past, it could be said to be unreasonable, but now, even if Lu Yuan has three thousand beauties in the harem, who dares to say that Lu Yuan is wrong?
On the contrary, if Ning Rongrong and Ning Fengzhi were dissatisfied, they would be attacked by a group of people.
It was out of this consideration that Yan Xian had previously told his daughter Yan Zhuyin about this matter, asking her to be alone with Lu Yuan as much as possible.
It's just that he wasn't too straightforward. After all, he didn't expect that there would be such a thing as a cabinet member.
If Yan Zhuyin and Lu Yuan had already made things happen, even if Yan Xian was just a soul saint, he could still be in charge of the cabinet, right?
Just like Ning Fengzhi, even if he has not solved the flaws of his martial soul, he is still a soul saint.
Even so, who dares to criticize him?
However, that day and into the night, the four founding heroes, King Fengwu, King Xuanwu, King Senluo and King Gale, came to visit Yanxian one after another.
And their intentions were the same, asking Yan Xian to help them at the court meeting the next day.
As the leader of the clan, Yanxian has no chance of joining the cabinet, but the interests can be fought for, so he naturally fights hard for it.
Therefore, there was inevitably some conversation and discussion, and finally the next day everyone met Lu Yuan, whom they had not seen for a long time, in the Grand Assembly Hall.
In the Grand Meeting Hall, facing Lu Yuan, everyone first saluted, and then started a discussion for a long time. Yan Xian stood up to support Andrew and Ilusen.
Most of the others supported Andrew. Lu Yuan thought about it and found that Ilusen was the second veteran to join him. Although it seemed tactful to say so, Ilusen was not just a mediocre person who wanted to flatter him.
Just like Qi Jiguang in his previous life, although he was very adaptable and flattering, can you say that he was not a loyal minister and a good general?
So in terms of ability and affection, Illusen deserves this position no matter what.
Therefore, Lu Yuan decided on two cabinet positions on the spot, Fengwu King Andrew and Senluo King Ilusen.
Shishan and Jiluobu are competing for the remaining positions.
However, in the end, it was Shishan, a veteran, who won the last position as a cabinet member by virtue of his deep connections and strong qualifications.
So far, all seven cabinet members have been confirmed, namely Ning Fengzhi, Meng Shenji, Bai Baoshan, Zhilin, Andrew, Ilusen and Shishan.
At the same time, Lu Yuan also determined the status of the seven members on the spot.
Among them, Ning Fengzhi is the chief minister of the cabinet and is in charge of all powers. When Lu Yuan is away, he can decide all affairs with other cabinet members, and the final decision-making power rests with him.
As for the second assistant, who was second only to Ning Fengzhi, Andrew was appointed as the second assistant, with the civil servant Ning Fengzhi as the leader and the general Andrew as the leader. This was very reasonable.
The remaining Mengshenji, Baibaoshan, Zhilin, Ilusen and Shishan were second to none, and the status of the five was in no particular order.
At the same time, Lu Yuan changed the previous Jingxin Hall into the cabinet's agency for handling political affairs, and renamed it "Mingyuan Pavilion".
This is also a first-hand copy of "Wenyuan Pavilion" where the cabinet office of the Ming Dynasty was located, but it is not good to just take the text. After all, force is supreme in Douluo Continent.
Therefore, Lu Yuan chose "Ming", which means wise, wise, and clear.
And the word Yuan at the back happened to represent his own name. It was a great honor to be named after the emperor.
After determining the cabinet members and office space, Lu Yuan gave the cabinet a token of identity, which was also seven unique soul guides. Not only could the token be used to enter and exit the palace at will, but it could also store a large amount of materials, official documents and documents.
Next, he stayed in Liuli City for another three days, briefly reviewed the imperial affairs and documents, paid filial piety to Lu Qing and Mana, and ordered the expansion of the Tianying Army's recruitment.
After he finally dealt with all this, Lu Yuan took a breath and then planned to open the space portal and return to Poseidon Island to continue his training.
