Zhao Ji waited in the Taiji Palace for more than ten days, and it was already March, but he never saw Ge Bing, Liu Shikai and others again.

This time, there were more than 1,000 people who followed him back, and some others came to visit him, and every time he saw him, he looked anxious.

In the afternoon of this day, Zhao Chen came to the Taiji Palace, and he found that Zhao Ji was writing something on the paper.

"Grandpa, what are you doing?" Zhao Chen said with a smile.

Zhao Ji was taken aback, he raised his head, and when he saw that it was Zhao Chen, he immediately covered the paper with his hand! He wrote the list of courtiers! These days, he has already thought about what ministers he should use after he takes power, Ge Bing wants to become the prime minister, Liu Shikai wants to become the privy envoy, and the rest of the ministers are hired! As for the million-strong army, it is natural that most of them will be abolished, and all the people in Zhao Chen's current military aircraft department will rush to the locality, and he, Zhao Ji, will regain control of all the government affairs.

"It's nothing, I came back from the north, I haven't written for a long time, so I came to practice calligraphy." Zhao Ji sneered.

"Grandpa is okay in Taiji Palace these days?" Zhao Chen said.

"Good, all good! Just a little lonely. Zhao Ji said.

"I've heard that people from outside the palace often come to see grandpa! If grandpa is bored, he can also go out of the palace and take a look! This Yanjing City is the capital of the Liao Kingdom, and the scenery is good! There are also some mountains and lakes around Yanjing, and grandpa can also go out of the city to play, and I will let the soldiers accompany grandpa. Zhao Chen said.

"Ahh Can I even get out of the palace? Zhao Ji said in disbelief.

He originally thought that after he came here, Zhao Chen would definitely keep a close watch on him, and it would definitely not be easy for him to get out of the palace! It's like when he was in Kaifeng, after Zhao Huan ascended the throne, he was soon placed under house arrest! Although Zhao Chen did not say that he was under house arrest, he did not dare to leave easily.

"Naturally, you can leave the palace! Even ordinary people can play around, let alone the Emperor of my Great Song Dynasty? After the child became the emperor, there were not many rules in the palace, and the queen and the emperor could leave the palace at will, but they needed to be followed by guards to protect your safety. Zhao Chen said lightly.

He was telling the truth, he wouldn't restrict Zhao Ji's freedom at all! Zhao Ji can go wherever he wants, and he also knows Zhao Ji's political ambitions, but he doesn't take Zhao Ji's ambitions to heart at all! This world is his Zhao Chen's world, the ministers of civil and military affairs are all promoted by him, hundreds of millions of soldiers and civilians in the world worship him madly, and no one, even the former emperor, can do anything in this era!

Zhao Ji was ecstatic at the moment, he thought about it, and couldn't help asking: "Ge Bing, Liu Shikai and others haven't come to see me for many days, did something happen to them?" ”

Zhao Chen nodded and said, "Some time ago, more than a dozen ministers tried to subvert the imperial court and were already captured and imprisoned, and after the court made a verdict, they have been exiled to the northwest. ”

"Ahh Zhao Ji stayed there for a moment, and after a while, he said, "How is it possible?" How could they subvert the imperial court? ”

"They all admit it themselves! If Grandpa is interested, he can go to the court and ask for the file! In fact, when they came back from the north, they could be regarded as suffering, and the court gave them houses and silver, and if they really couldn't survive, the court would continue to support them! They can stay in Yanjing City, be carefree here, and live a prosperous life! But they are still not satisfied, they have become commoners, and they still want to control the government, try to subvert the court, violate the law and discipline of the court, and the court has to exile them! Zhao Chen said lightly.

Zhao Ji's face suddenly turned pale!

"Grandpa is not young, and he is slowly enjoying himself in Yanjing City. Although the current imperial court pays attention to frugality, it is far less than when it was Kaifeng, but it is countless times better than in the Five Kingdoms City! Grandpa, don't you say? Zhao Chen said.

Zhao Ji nodded silently.

"When the children are free, they often visit their grandfather." Zhao Chen said.

"Ge Bing, they are not young, and now they are exiled to the northwest, I am afraid that they may not be able to withstand the bitter cold of the northwest!" After a while, Zhao Ji was a little unwilling.

"They can stay in the Five Kingdoms City, and they should be able to stay in the Northwest as well! Moreover, they will not do farm work when they arrive in the northwest! There are millions of young people in the northwest, and those young people also need to be taught, they can teach young people to read, and they can be regarded as contributing to our Great Song Dynasty. Zhao Chen said.

"Where is Xun'er these days?" Zhao Ji said again.

In the past few days, Zhao Xun is not in the Taiji Palace, Zhao Ji is busy with "political affairs", and he no longer cares about this grandson, but now that he suddenly woke up, he knew that he could no longer meddle in state affairs, and he finally remembered Zhao Xun.

"The queen is lonely in the palace alone, and Xun'er is only four years old, just so the queen can teach him." Zhao Chen said lightly.

"The queen is the daughter of a thief, how can she teach me the descendants of Zhao and Song?" Zhao Ji said angrily.

"The queen used to be the first talented woman in the northwest, proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and just happened to educate and train children. Grandpa, if there is nothing else, the child will leave! Zhao Chen said lightly.

After Zhao Chen finished speaking, he went outside, and Zhao Ji shouted angrily there, but unfortunately Zhao Chen didn't stop at all! For this grandfather who doesn't have much emotion, Zhao Chen is very disappointed in his heart! Zhao Ji came back from the north, he could enjoy Qingfu, Zhao Chen would not lose his food, drink and entertainment, and would not restrict his freedom, but he, a king of the dead country, tried to subvert the imperial court! With Zhao Ji's ability, if he really takes the throne, I am afraid that this country will go forward along the old road again, and the current good situation of the Great Song Dynasty will be ruined! He was disappointed in his heart, so he didn't want to talk to Zhao Ji more, and his attitude towards Zhao Ji was very cold!

Zhao Chen had already walked away, and Zhao Ji stood at the door of Taiji Palace in a daze, his eyes were gloomy, as if he was much older all of a sudden! Feeling that he could no longer control the government, he was disheartened and felt that there was no point in living! In fact, when he was in the City of Five Kingdoms, he was looking forward to coming back! As long as he can come back, even if he is an ordinary citizen, he is willing! But after he came back, he immediately wanted to take control of the government!

******

Zhao Ji returned to the imperial study, and in the evening he called Yu Yunwen to the imperial study and asked about the construction of the court.

"Your Majesty, now there are courts in all of the more than 500 prefectures and counties in Yanyun and the Central Plains! In addition to the courts, there were still many soldiers left in various places at the beginning, and now more than 500 states and counties have also established patrol houses! The system of this patrol house is different from before, the previous patrol house completely obeyed the orders of a person in the county and the state, and the patrol was also formed by the county and the state! Now although the patrol house also obeys the orders of the county and the state, they have a lot of autonomy, and they also have to obey the orders of the higher-level patrol room! It's just that the number of patrols is a little small now, and it still needs to be expanded! Yu Yunwen said.

Zhao Chen nodded, he knew that the current patrol room was very similar to the public security bureau in later generations! In ancient China, "catching fast" was completely appointed by the county order, and the fate of "catching fast" was determined by the county order, and now the patrol house was set up separately from the county government, and even the county order was difficult to manage the specific work of the patrol room!

"You can recruit some people from the youth of the Northwest to become patrols! Are there any other problems in the courtroom and the patrol room? Zhao Chen said.

"Your Majesty, in towns and villages, after many people have committed crimes, it is often the locals who lynch them, without going through the courts at all! Wechen felt that this should change. Yu Yunwen said.

Zhao Chen nodded.

In fact, in ancient China, the government never really managed down to the village level! The clan is powerful in the countryside, and if someone commits a crime, it will be punished by the clan!

But now, Zhao Chen naturally can't continue to tolerate this phenomenon.

"On the one hand, let the people from the propaganda department go to the towns and villages to do more publicity, so that the villagers can understand that going through the court after committing a crime is the right way, and no one has the right to lynching! If someone uses lynching, punish them severely! In addition, let the patrols from all over the country go down to the villages, and if anyone uses lynching, arrest them immediately, without mercy! In this way, lynching in the countryside will be eliminated! In fact, Yanyun and the Central Plains have just been recovered, and many landlords and wealthy families in the countryside have been killed by the Jurchens, and many villagers are composed of people who wander all over the country, and there are very few big clans, and now is a good time to change the concept of villagers! Zhao Chen said.

"Your Majesty, there is another problem, the current legal system of the imperial court uses the old law, and Your Majesty once said that many of the regulations in these old laws are extremely absurd! You said that you want to formulate a new law, but it takes too long to specify a new law, and Wechen is not good at this! Your Majesty, I hope you will choose some other ministers to make the new law. Yu Yunwen thought about it for a while and said.

"Transfer Li Ruoshui from Hanzhong and let him preside over the formulation of the new law! It is not a matter of time and a half to make a new law, it may not be completed in a few years, and after the country changes, new laws must be added continuously! I estimate that it will be difficult for Li Ruoshui to complete this alone! Some of the most fundamental and important laws need to be discussed by the Military Aircraft Department, the frontier generals, and many young leaders of the Production and Construction Corps! Let Li Ruoshui find someone to do this first, and when it comes to the end of the year, if there is time, we will gather all the important people in the imperial court to discuss it together. Zhao Chen said.

"Good!" Yu Yunwen nodded, thinking that this was a good idea! Combined with the wisdom of the people, we will surely be able to make a good law! Only with good laws can we govern the country better.

"Your Majesty, Weichen has one more thing to say." After a while, Yu Yunwen said again.

"What's the matter?" Zhao Chen said.

"Your Majesty, now that we occupy the world, how will we select officials in the future? In Weichen's view, it is still necessary to use the imperial examination! Your Majesty should carry out the imperial examination as soon as possible! Yu Yunwen said.
