The Hall of Wisdom

Zhao Chen sat on the throne, his expression was gloomy, his eyes were lowered, and he seemed to be an old monk who had settled down, without the youthful vitality of a young man, and without the supreme majesty that an emperor should have.

Wang Xiu, Li Gang, and Qin Hui stood a few steps away from the desk, listening to an attendant read the details of the name, ministry, and dispatch power of the new bureaucracy.

After a long time, the chamberlain quietly retreated, and none of the monarchs and ministers took the lead in speaking, and the atmosphere in the hall was a little depressing.

"What's going on over there in the palace," Zhao Chen said listlessly.

Li Gang couldn't help but shake his head secretly, this son of heaven is also very sloppy, and he can't use the treasury of the outer dynasty, which definitely makes the life of the inner dynasty difficult.

Of course, it is not the grievance of outsiders, the charter drafted by Wang Xiu, or the preferential treatment given to the royal family, whether it is interfering in state affairs or worshipping, is very open-minded, and the Son of Heaven still has relative authority.

Relatively speaking, the royal family also has a lot of resources and is absolutely able to check and balance foreign dynasties, but he does not have the power to interfere in the treasury of foreign dynasties, which is very popular for him. He experienced Zhao Ji's extravagance, witnessed the extravagance of the royal family, ruined the good and decent family and country, and greatly damaged the vitality of the people in the world.

However, it is true that the country has been restored, but it is limited to the southeast, Fujian and other areas that have not been war-torn, Shaanxi, Beijing, Tokyo West, and even Huainan East and West Road, which still have not developed and cannot withstand too many storms.

Qin Hui, as the actual implementer, although he entered the Privy Council, was still serving as the prime minister in the Metropolitan Hall, and immediately responded: "Your Majesty, the Imperial City Division, the Sanya Guards, etc. are being handed over, but the front division of the palace has quite objections to the classification of the Sanya Guards, and the matters that should be discussed are being discussed." ”

Zhao Chen's face was even more unsightly, the corners of his mouth trembled, and he glanced at Wang Xiu resentfully.

Wang Xiu didn't care about his son's eyes, the Sanya Guard was the leader of the Son of Heaven, and he should have assigned the dispatch power to the palace province, but it caused the military to be dissatisfied, especially the palace front division was very unhappy, which was expected.

"The Sanya guards are the guards of the Son of Heaven, how can they let the palace be in charge" Li Gang still disagreed, he very much hoped that all the strength would belong to the Privy Council, that is to say, the Banzhi guards would still belong to the front of the palace.

According to Wang Xiu's plan for the separation of foreign dynasties, the Great Song Dynasty guards were still nominally royal, but the emperor could not arbitrarily transfer troops, and could only control the royal guards.

Wang Xiu's heart moved, and he glanced at Li Gang meaningfully, this guy is high-sounding, he is really ruthless, he doesn't leave any money for the royal family at all, you think it is a constitutional monarchy, what he wants to implement is a dual monarchy, the king controls his own guards, has greater rights in state affairs, and even has a certain amount of power over military affairs, but he is not a commander of the bare pole.

However, he was happy to see the scholars toss, as long as it was within a controllable range, it was very beneficial to him, at least it could reduce his resistance.

Qin Hui also agreed with Li Gang, and said decisively, "Lord Li is an old man's words, and the province in the palace must not give soldiers important points." ”

Zhao Chen pursed his lips and said very quietly: "Okay, the names of the three guards are still in the hands of the front division of the palace, and the daily dispatch is assigned by the palace province, and the military department will determine the merit. ”

Wang Xiu frowned slightly, and seemed to understand what Zhao Chen meant, his original intention was to separate the affairs and finances of the internal and external dynasties, gradually delineate the power of the Son of Heaven, and reduce the interference of the imperial power in the foreign dynasties.

His original intention was also to give the royal family a certain amount of direct military power, and the Banzhi guards were assigned to the palace province, which could avoid the Privy Council, which was equivalent to the royal family holding a hole card.

Ban Zhi's guards are royal guards, but they are also elite soldiers and horses under the rule of the Privy Council, and the transfer order is in the hands of the Son of Heaven and the Privy Council, but without the order of the Privy Council, it is difficult for the Son of Heaven to mobilize the whole army of Ban Zhi.

This time, the squad was sent by the palace province, so it was just as good as Zhao Chen, at least he could bypass the Privy Council and transfer troops, and the Son of Heaven controlled the elite armed forces of more than 3,000 people outside the two mansions, which was not big but disturbing.

Three thousand elites are placed in Jiangning, and they are also a force that should not be taken lightly, not to mention that these guards have the most sophisticated equipment and select the best strong men.

The separation of the internal and external dynasties restricts the imperial power, but the Son of Heaven is in charge of the guards, and can deter the two governments, there are still masters to guide him, he can be sure that he will go to Zhang Qiyuan, there will still be people who are unwilling to be lonely to stir up trouble, and it is still very difficult for him to continue his efforts to continue his family and country.

Wang Xiu's willingness is one thing, others are involved in it and plotting dirty, this is what he does not want to see.

Li Gang didn't understand that he was in favor of Wang Xiu's decision to separate the internal and external dynasties, and he had experienced a painful lesson, and he was very sensitive to the Son of Heaven's arbitrary intervention in state and military affairs, and it should be said that without Zhao Huan's neuroticism, there would have been no rampant Jurchens and the necessity of restricting the monarch's power.

However, he had a very bad feeling about Ban Zhi's departure from the Privy Council, thinking that Wang Xiu should come forward to stop it, but he didn't see any opinions from the other party.

He couldn't help but be a little displeased, and said bluntly: "The troops in the world are all from their own soldiers, this is the law of the ancestors, even if the province of the palace is separated from the Chinese dynasty, it cannot be entrusted with the military authority." ”

Zhao Chen naturally wants to seize the military power, the Banzhi guards are the best soldiers in the world, there are not many officials but they are very elite, he is mediocre and understands the benefits.

Wang Xiu didn't want to talk about Ban Zhi at all, the obvious feature of the dual monarchy is that it restricts the control of the monarch's power over the family and country, and the monarch should have the power at his disposal to deal with possible wrongdoers, which is the main reason why he decided to assign it to Ban Zhi.

Of course, there is another reason that cannot be explained, even if Zhao Chen targets him again, it is also his flesh and blood, for the sake of future generations, he must let the descendants have a certain ability to protect themselves under the shuanggui power system.

He didn't want to go too far in the official system, the truth that things must be reversed is eternal, and now many scholars and doctors have tasted the sweetness, and if they want to finish their work in one battle, this is very dangerous, it will breed the ambition of some people, and he must curb this momentum.

Zhao Chen saw that Wang Xiu was silent, he felt very bored, and said lazily: "Okay, this is how to do it, I don't know what the prince wants."

"The Sanya guards are the guards of the Son of Heaven, and they are naturally controlled by the inner government, but they need to be dispatched by the Privy Council to go out to fight." Wang Xiu said very plainly, he was determined to assign Ban Zhi to the Inner Dynasty, and would never let the Privy Council and the front secretary of the palace get involved.

Zhao Chen didn't hear anything unusual, he couldn't help but be overjoyed, he didn't think that Wang Xiu was inclined to him, but felt that it was the other party's negligence, and hit the railroad while it was hot: "Then do it, okay, retreat from the dynasty"

Li Gang glanced at Wang Xiu thoughtfully, and his expression was particularly solemn.
