In the palace, Zhao Chen was entertaining Yu Yunwen, Li Xianzhong and others.

It's just an ordinary meal, but everyone eats it unusually sweet.

Zhao Chen looked at Yu Yunwen carefully, and he found that Yu Yunwen seemed to be much more mature than before! Sure enough, after two years of local training, Yu Yunwen has grown again.

"Your Majesty, General Yue, haven't they come yet?" Li Xianzhong said.

"They want to arrange military affairs in Goryeo, and it may take a few days to arrive!" Zhao Chen said.

"Your Majesty, do Zhongshu Province and Menxia Province have to be withdrawn?" Yu Yunwen is the way.

"Of course, because there is no need for departments such as Zhongshu Province and Menxia Province now." Zhao Chen said.

"Why did the Six Divisions also have to be removed?" Yu Yunwen said.

"The Sixth Department is not withdrawn, but completely merged with the Military Aircraft Department! I am ready to reform the six ministries, and the current six ministries are not enough to govern the whole country! Zhao Chen said.

"Dare to ask Your Majesty, how to reform these six departments?" Yu Yunwen said.

Li Xianzhong is also listening carefully at the moment! Although he is a soldier, he is naturally concerned about the fundamental system of the country when discussing it now! Since the beginning of the Sui Dynasty, China has implemented the system of three provinces and six ministries, after the Tang Dynasty and the Northern Song Dynasty, it has a history of six or seven hundred years, starting from the establishment of the Military Aircraft Department, the three provinces and the twenty-four divisions under the three provinces, the rights of the six departments and the six subordinate departments have been declining, and now the world is stable, Zhao Chen finally wants to completely start the three provinces and six departments! From now on, this world is no longer the world of three provinces and six departments.

"In the past, the six departments were the Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of Households, the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Crime, and the Ministry of Industry, but I thought that such a division was not comprehensive! There are not only six departments to govern the world, but also many of the six departments that do not need to exist! Zhao Chen said.

"Your Majesty is right." Yu Yunwen thought for a moment and nodded.

"Tell me both of you, what else should be added?" Zhao Chen said with a smile.

It was snowing heavily, but it was very warm in the room, and someone was serving hot tea at the moment, and the three of them were talking about it while drinking tea.

"Your Majesty, Weichen thinks that this Ministry of Agriculture is indispensable! People live on food, and agriculture is very important! From ancient times to the present, there is no Ministry of Agriculture in the world, which is really inappropriate! Your Majesty wants to completely merge the six ministries and the military aircraft department into one, and this Ministry of Agriculture is indispensable! In addition, the matter of culture, education, and imperial examinations is very important, and the Ministry of Culture and Culture can be established! The military department should be merged into one with the staff headquarters! Yu Yunwen said.

Zhao Chen nodded.

"Commerce is becoming more and more important now, or should you join the Ministry of Commerce!" Yu Yunwen said again.

"It's too late today, you write down your thoughts carefully, and we'll discuss this matter together tomorrow morning!" Zhao Chen thought for a while and said.

"Good!" Yu Yunwen agreed.

In the early morning of the second day, Zhao Chen, Yu Yunwen, Wang Shu and others discussed the reform of the system in the imperial study.

In the afternoon of the same day, Zhao Ding arrived from the south, and Zhao Chen and Zhao Ding discussed the matter together! Zhao Ding had many dissatisfaction with the reform of the education imperial examination, and Zhao Chen told him his thoughts.

On December 23, Yue Fei and Wu Jue returned from Goryeo, and Zhao Chen, Yue Fei, Wu Jue, Qu Duan and others discussed the transformation of the General Staff Headquarters into the Military Headquarters! The military department is still divided into three major departments: operations, intelligence, and logistics, and the army is divided into two arms, the army and the navy, and the power of the navy will become greater and greater in the future! In the new military aircraft department, what is the position of the head of the military department, and so on.

From the beginning of December to the end of December, more and more ministers came to Yanjing City, and Zhao Chen was extremely busy during this time, discussing the change of the country's political system with some important or close ministers every day.

By the time of the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve, more than 120 ministers of culture and martial arts had come to Yanjing City.

These 120-odd ministers can be said to be the officials with the highest status and the heaviest power in the Great Song Dynasty today, including the main and deputy positions of the 23rd Road in the world, the important generals of various armies, the important leaders of the production and construction corps, plus the prefects and prefects of some important state capitals, and so on, in addition to some well-known literati and writers in the world, old ministers of the previous generation, and so on.

On the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, Zhao Chen feasted the courtiers.

On the morning of the first day of the first lunar month, there was a festive atmosphere in the entire Yanjing City, and Zhao Chen and more than 120 civil and military ministers came to the palace of governance and really sat together to discuss important matters.

The palace was full of neat tables and chairs, with Zhao Chen sitting above and the ministers sitting below.

"Your Majesty!" Seeing Zhao Chen walking up, many ministers stood together.

They wanted to kneel, but unfortunately there were tables and chairs in front of them, and there was no place to kneel at all.

"Sit down!" Zhao Chen said.

The people sat down together.

"In fact, since the beginning of the first month, I have been discussing with Wang Shu about the reform of the Military Aircraft Department! These days, ministers have come to Yanjing one after another, and I have also discussed this matter with the ministers! Wang Shu, you come to tell you the result of our discussion. Zhao Chen said.

Wang Shu was in the first row below at the moment, he stood up, looked behind him, and said: "Our Military Aircraft Department has been discussed by all, and from now on, the Military Aircraft Department will be renamed the Government Affairs Yuan to deal with the world's government affairs!" In addition, all the six ministries of the previous three provinces were merged into the Government Council! From now on, there will be no more military aircraft department, no more three provinces and six ministries, only the government affairs yuan! ”

Immediately, the ministers below were in an uproar!

Most of them already knew the news, and many of them had discussed it with Zhao Chen personally, but now that they heard this decision, some people were still shocked! They thought that such a reform would take a long time to be implemented, but they didn't expect Zhao Chen to let Wang Shu announce the news today.

"The Military Aircraft Department was originally dealing with the war, and now it is inappropriate to continue to keep it! The Military Aircraft Department and the six ministries of the three provinces can handle the political affairs of the world, so naturally they should have been merged into one long ago! From now on, the Government Council will be the only place in the world to deal with government affairs! There is a prime minister in the Government Council to lead hundreds of officials! Under the Prime Minister, ten ministries were set up to manage various affairs in the world! Zhao Chen motioned for Wang Shu to sit down and said loudly.

After Zhao Chen finished speaking, the ministers below quieted down again, and they were all listening carefully to Zhao Chen's words.

"The ten ministries of the Government Council are the Ministry of Agriculture, which deals with the world's agricultural affairs, the Ministry of Commerce, which deals with the world's commercial affairs, the Ministry of Education, which is used to educate the world, the Ministry of Military, the Ministry of Households, which is used to deal with the world's population and household registration and ethnic groups, and the Ministry of Finance, which is responsible for the world's financial taxation, and the three departments of transportation, diplomacy, and construction are set up to manage the world's road traffic, foreign negotiations, and local construction! Of course, this is a preliminary decision, and we still have to discuss it carefully! In addition to the 10 departments, there is also a general patrol room to manage the world's patrols and ensure public safety. Zhao Chen said.

The more than 120 ministers below began to whisper, they knew that the Military Aircraft Department was going to be changed to the Government Council, but they didn't know the specific division of the ten departments, and they didn't know that there was also the establishment of the General Patrol Room.

"Your Majesty, what about the former Criminal Department?" Li Guang stood up and said.

"The criminal department and the court are combined into one, and Yanjing City has set up the highest court to manage the world's crimes! There are also different levels of courts in different places! Zhao Chen said.

"Your Majesty, what about the former Yushitai?" Li Guang said again.

"Regarding the matter of the Imperial Historical Observatory, I have been discussing it with the Military Aircraft Department before, and it has not yet been decided whether it will be attributed to the Government Council or the Supreme Court! If it is attributed to the Government Council, it will be called the Ministry of Supervision, and if it is attributed to the Supreme Court, it is also an independent department of the Supreme Court! Today, I will tell you about some of the decisions of the Military Aircraft Department, and we will discuss this matter in detail in the next few days! You are all living in the inn south of the palace now, and you have discussed it these days, and you can come to me at any time if you have any suggestions! Zhao Chen said.

"Your Majesty, aren't the courts in all parts of the world under the jurisdiction of the Government Council?" A minister stood up and said.

"The court system operates separately from the Government Council! The prince is guilty of the same crime as the common people, and the court can sentence the affairs of the world, and the officials of the world can be sentenced, and no one can interfere! Even if I do, I can only choose a pardon after the court verdict! Zhao Chen said.

"Your Majesty, what should the Advisory Bureau do? Is it under the authority of the Government Council? At this moment, Qin Hui suddenly stood up and said.

"The Advisory Council is a place to participate in politics, not to participate in the handling of state affairs, and should also operate independently!" Zhao Chen said.

Regarding Zhao Chen's statement, the ministers below don't have many opinions! In fact, the current advisory bureau basically has no rights, and the vast majority of people regard this place as a retirement place for the elders of the DPRK and China, and some businessmen have also entered the advisory bureau by bribing voters, but in fact they still have little power, and they have only improved some social status.

"Since the Advisory Bureau is discussing state affairs, I have discussed it with Wang Shu a few times, and it can be changed to Congress." Zhao Chen said again.

On the morning of the first day of the first lunar month, the monarchs and ministers of the Great Song Dynasty were discussing the division of departments in the Government Affairs Yuan, some people thought that several ministries should be added, and some people thought that the ministries were too many and should be deleted!

In the afternoon, Zhao Chen continued to discuss political affairs with everyone.

The selection of the prime minister, the selection of ministers, the system of selecting the prime minister, the system of selecting ministers of various ministries, and so on must be determined. It is now the first day of the first month of the tenth year of Xuanwu, the tenth year of Zhao Chen's accession to the throne, the war is over, the domestic economy is recovering, and the country's fundamental system is still chaotic, Zhao Chen naturally can't tolerate it!
