"Big brother, today is the first day of the new prime minister's tenure, and he needs to go to the Temple of Heaven and Earth to pay tribute to the emperors of the Tang Dynasty, and then swear allegiance to you, and finally announce the list of cabinet members." Early in the morning, Li Xuanqing and Qiaoxi were changing into court crown dresses, and Murong Feixue next to them also walked in with the three of them, and when the family of three arrived at the Temple of Heaven and Earth, the square outside was already crowded with people, and the Imperial Forest Army on duty was sweating profusely, for fear that the assassination a few days ago would happen today, so not only did the regular army of the Tiance Army be transferred from outside the city, but also Xuanyingwei also dispatched countless secret guards to mix in the crowd to monitor the layout at any time to prevent accidents. On the side of the Temple of Heaven and Earth, Cen Tianshi also rushed back to officially transfer power, and when Li Xuanqing arrived, everyone present was shouting long live in the mountain, and the atmosphere of the scene reached its peak for a while.

"The people of the Tang Dynasty, today is a big day for the Tang Empire, we ten years ago on the first day of October, it was on the altar of this altar of heaven and earth, the Tang Empire was officially established, and my Chinese Kyushu has since moved towards the road of unification and prosperity. All this is inseparable from the hard work and hard work of the cabinet in the past ten years. And today's first prime minister Cen Tianshi has a successful term of office, today to tell the world, to the previous emperors, handed over to the new prime minister Zhang Jianzhong, I hope Zhang Qing, I hope you can inherit Mr. Cen's original intention of serving the country and the people, and continue to lead the imperial subjects to make persistent efforts to make the Tang Dynasty to a higher level. Li Xuanqing waved his hand to stop the cheers from the audience, and when he raised his throat, the clear voice resounded in everyone's ears as it did ten years ago, and with Li Xuanqing's continuous words, all the people in the audience were silently reviewing the rapid changes in the empire in the past ten years. So after Li Xuanqing finished speaking, all the people applauded together again and cheered for everyone in the former cabinet.

"Minister Zhang Jianzhong thanks the emperor, and the minister will take Mr. Cen as the standard, serve the country and the people, and do his best." Zhang Jianzhong immediately knelt on his knees and bowed, and at the same time bowed to Cen Tianshi and the others beside him, took the jade Ruyi that symbolized the power of the prime minister handed over by the latter, and bowed to Li Xuanqing.

"Two Aiqing, please come to the altar." Li Xuanqing summoned Cen Tianshi and Zhang Jianzhong to the altar, and said loudly: "Today's handover of the old and new prime ministers is a big day for the whole world to celebrate, and it has also made a good start for future generations. ”

Zhang Jianzhong walked to Li Xuanqing's side under the signal of the celebrant next to him, and bowed deeply with jade Ruyi in his hand, and said: "Today, thanks to the emperor's love, Mr. Cen's support, and the trust of the empire, Zhang Jianzhong can take over the post of prime minister of the cabinet, I am very honored, and today I am willing to make an oath to His Majesty the Emperor and thousands of people, to do my duty for the ministers, to serve the people, to share the worries of the emperor, and to contribute to the future of my Tang Dynasty." ”

"Please come forward and announce the list of cabinet members." The voice of the celebrant sounded at this time, and Li Xuanqing took Qiaoxi and others to stand facing the people on the top of the altar. I only heard Zhang Jianzhong say loudly: "The minister took over as the prime minister of the cabinet today, and after discussing with Mr. Cen and others, he selected candidates for the ministers of the cabinet, and I hope that all my colleagues will join me to serve Datang." ”

As soon as he said this, all the high-level officials who came to attend immediately knelt on their knees, and Zhang Jianzhong continued: "The list of members of the third cabinet of the Tang Empire is as follows: Li Chengyu, Minister of Civil Affairs, Qi Hong, Minister of Finance, Yang Tiancheng, Minister of National Defense, Yuan He, Minister of Education, Wang Jingyu, Minister of Agriculture, Gao Chongmin, Minister of Industry, Murong Hanhai, Minister of Commerce, Zhang Quanfu, Minister of Water Resources and Environmental Protection, Li Wenhe, Minister of Health, Zhang Qi, Minister of Security, Wu Zuodong, Minister of Transportation, Wu Tianming, Minister of Construction, Wang Shoutian, Minister of Foreign Affairs, Zhu Laichen of the Ministry of Land and Resources and Zhang Han, the newly established Minister of the Propaganda Department. The list of cabinet members drawn up by Zhang Jianzhong basically followed the previous cabinet layout of Cen Tianshi, and the only slight change was that the Ministry of Industry and Commerce was divided into two according to Li Xuanqing's intentions, and the Ministry of Industry began to be divided separately, and Gao Chongmin, who was transferred to Gaochang as a political envoy, took over. The biggest change after that is another point, that is, the previous proposal of Tuoba Si Zhi began to set up four deputy prime ministers, of which the person in charge of the internal is Murong Hanhai, who is also the deputy prime minister and minister of commerce, in charge of the Industrial and Commercial Development Committee; Deputy Prime Minister for Overseas Affairs Lee Sung-ok; Qu Chengmei, deputy prime minister in charge of northwest affairs and political envoy of Anxibu, and Zhang Quanfu, who is in charge of the domestic water conservancy, environmental protection, and land resources census committee. In this way, the new cabinet team is basically finalized, and because most of the people have inherited the previous personnel, it is possible to ensure that the powers of the cabinet can be exercised in the shortest possible time. Moreover, compared with the first and second cabinets, Zhang Jianzhong's cabinet paid more attention to industrial and commercial development in internal affairs, and there were also deputy prime ministers who were specifically responsible for management to deal with border affairs, thus strengthening the cabinet's management of border areas and overseas territories, which is exactly what Li Xuanqing hoped to see, in the future, as the empire, especially most of the Central Plains, entered the industrialized society, then the Tang Empire's external expansion became a logical thing, whether it was to find a larger dumping market for huge industrial goods, or for the need to expand the territory, this has a deputy prime minister who specializes in managing frontier and overseas affairs, which will make the cabinet more and more mature. Therefore, both Li Xuanqing and Cen Tianshi are very pleased with this, Zhang Jianzhong can come to power to represent that Datang has been able to cultivate the talents it needs through its own system after ten years of development, and can also change the composition of its cabinet departments in a timely manner according to the development of national policies and national conditions to adapt to the new environment and new situations.

Zhang Jianzhong's cabinet members came to the stage one after another and began to swear allegiance to Li Xuanqing with Zhang Jianzhong, and then returned to the cabinet building to formally exercise the powers of the cabinet, and the third cabinet of the Tang Dynasty officially began its work. And in the following days, other units under the cabinet also began to be appointed, among the largest departments, the people in charge of the sub-units such as Datang Qianzhuang and the Railway Department were also decided, Datang Qianzhuang naturally still handed over to Yin Honglin, at present, although the concept of finance has risen in Datang, and the major colleges have also opened special departments, but there is still no one else who can keep up with Li Xuanqing's seemingly changeable financial means like a miracle like Yin Honglin. Therefore, the Tang Qianzhuang led by Yin Honglin has carried out in-depth reforms in accordance with Li Xuanqing's instructions and transformed into the system of the central bank in later generations. And the Department of Railways has basically been building railways day and night in the empire over the years, so the Ministry of Communications' Railway Department has become the most important subordinate agency, even more important than river transportation and sea transportation. Therefore, the Railway Department handed over to Wu Tianming, who has made great contributions to the construction of the railway over the years. After these subordinate institutions quickly returned to normal, the entire Imperial Cabinet began to operate at full speed, and immediately all kinds of new Cabinet Instructions were sent to the provinces of the Empire, and at the same time, the first Cabinet Prime Minister's Decree issued by the new Prime Minister Zhang Jianzhong was also published in full by the media group and promulgated throughout the country. In the Prime Minister's Decree, Zhang Jianzhong made it clear that the important task of the cabinet in the next step is to popularize industrialization on the one hand, so that the empire can enter the industrial society again and again, and secondly, for the provinces that have entered industrialization, it is necessary to carry out reforms, so that industrial technology can be updated faster, so that industrialization can be deepened, and the wheels of imperial industry must continue to move forward. As the basic national policy of the empire, the cabinet will invest heavily in supporting the development of science and technology every year, and vigorously support enterprises and individuals who have the ability to carry out scientific and technological research and development.

Soon after the new prime minister took office, Li Xuanqing also published a signed article here, saying that as the emperor fully supported the national policy formulated by the cabinet, and for the first time put forward the famous phrase "science and technology are the primary productive forces" of later generations, so that the Tang Empire began to take technological innovation measures while popularizing industrialization, and the old industrial areas in the north represented by Fengzhou and Youzhou have achieved the fastest development in this wave of development. On the one hand, the backward production capacity that needs to be eliminated will be moved to the two major regions of the north and south, such as the Central Plains and the grassland, and on the other hand, it will vigorously develop a new development model, and a large number of high-tech industries will take root and complete industrial upgrading quietly. In this wave of industrial development and innovation, families and businesses that focused on high-tech industries gained a huge advantage, and took this opportunity to make several families that were previously low-key rise to the top of the list.

After the cabinet was able to exercise its own power, Li Xuanqing finally relieved his mind and began to convene Cen Tianshi and Tuoba Sizhi to discuss the affairs of the Tang Fuxing Society, which had been overshadowed by the new prime minister in the Changqing Palace, and prepared to widely promote the affairs of the political party within the empire.

"Brother Siji, have you thought of the name of your political party? Mr. Cen's side is called the Datang Fuxing Society, because the purpose of our original creation of the new Datang is to restore the majesty of the Tang Dynasty and let the blood and arrogance that have flowed in the hearts of the people since the Han and Tang Dynasties re-emerge, so the Fuxing Society is worthy of its name. I don't know what Brother Si Jian's plan is going to call here? What is the purpose? Li Xuanqing saw the two of them sit down and smiled.

"The emperor forgives me, I am busy with the transfer of cabinet power during this time, so I haven't thought about these yet, I only have a rough idea, just say it at this time and let the emperor and Mr. Cen give me an axe or two." Tuoba Si said with a wry smile: "Mr. Cen's Fuxing Society is indeed in line with my Datang's national policy and original intention, and it is also the mainstream of the development of the imperial political party in the future, so I think about the other aspect, I think about how to maintain fairness and justice, so Xiang created a political party, the main purpose is to promote fairness and justice within Datang, so at first I planned to call it the Justice League, but later I felt that the name was too big, so I changed it to the Justice Party." ”

"The Justice Party, this is good, and the purpose of its founding is actually not bad. As Datang develops faster and faster, the resulting unfairness and injustice are inevitable, and I think there is a lot to be done if I can take this as an opportunity. Before Li Xuanqing could speak, Qiaoxi next to him walked over and said with a smile: "And it's also very good to call this name directly the Justice Party, it fits the party system, big brother, I think it's very good." ”

"Well, one insists on development and inheritance, and the other intends to establish fairness and justice and supervise power. It's also complementary, so it's good. Li Xuanqing was also very interested in Tuoba Si's thinking, so he nodded and said: "Qiaoxi and I have already paved the way for the two of you in various universities and colleges in the north, so you should go hand in hand in the next step, on the one hand, try your best to promote it at the level of imperial officials, after all, it is the elite talents of the empire that we have selected, they can join the best, and secondly, university students, only in this way can we grasp the birthplace of future imperial talents." The other last one is the broad masses of the people, this time Qiaoxi and I went deep into the factory floors, but those workers were able to understand our party system and the new policy, and they would surely become the foundation of our empire. Li Xuanqing's words made Cen Tianshi nod for a while, he followed the footsteps of Li Xuanqing and his wife, and naturally he could understand that the people who thought they would definitely not understand such a profound political system in the past could understand things better than some big families.

"But there is one thing you have to understand, you can't use the name of me and Qiaoxi when you publicize, and how many party members you can develop depends on your ability, and no one can help you at this point." Li Xuanqing said with a smile: "But fortunately, I have already said hello to the Law Court and the Senate, once your political party is officially established, it will start to formally legislate when it has a certain scale, and no third political party group will be allowed to appear, and it will be your two political parties that can compete for the position of prime minister in the cabinet in the future, so that the political power of the empire can be concentrated to the greatest extent." ”

"The emperor can rest assured, if the two of us can't do this well, then the emperor is a non-person, and I won't be able to come back to see the emperor without saying a word." Cen Tianshi smiled slightly, obviously understanding the meaning of Li Xuanqing's words.

"Big brother, the fourth brother is here, there is news compared to what happened that day." Li Xuanqing was about to teach a little bit of the propaganda techniques of the political party that he had seen in later generations, when he heard Qiaoxi shout.

"This time, the emperor should not keep his hands, these people actually dare to do something to the emperor, they are really tired of being crooked." Cen Tianshi saw Hu Xiaosi walk in, and immediately said angrily. He naturally knew about Li Xuanqing's previous assassination near the border of Youzhou Province. Li Xuanqing has worked hard for the development of the empire and the people over the years, and he, the former prime minister, sees it in his eyes, and now Li Xuanqing is not only a symbol of the empire, once there is any mistake, such a big empire is only afraid that it will fall apart over time, which is simply a heinous crime in the eyes of Cen Tianshi. So Li Xuanqing hadn't spoken yet, he spoke directly.

"What Mr. Cen said is that this time you can't be merciful." Hu Xiaosi walked in front of Li Xuanqing, his face was a little gloomy.
