After a quick deal of the Siamese newspapers, that damn Tongluang was slippery than a loach, and he hadn't been caught yet. Once again, his troops were crushed by the Siamese government forces, but several important figures in the Thongluang clique slipped away once again.

Emperor Chen didn't bother to pay attention to the Siamese excerpts now, and left the palace to visit his parents in Yanshou Palace. The death of the old lady was a big blow to Chen Hui, and she grew a lot older.

If it weren't for the fact that his hair and beard were dyed black, he would look a little younger, and at first glance, he would have looked like a sick old man.

The powerful Emperor Chen has been sitting firmly in the country for fifteen years. Chen Hui, who took the initiative to give up the throne, was afraid that he didn't expect that his rotten body and bones would be able to live for so long.

But no one can say for sure, if he hadn't backed down back then, he would have survived to this point.

Now, the third cabinet has entered the end of its term, and after fifteen years of development, the authority of the cabinet has penetrated into the hearts of the people of the empire, and its power is getting bigger and bigger. The increasingly close exchanges between the East and the West have allowed many things from the East to be introduced to the West, and many things from the West to the East.

At least as far as Chen Ming knows, the words 'constitutional monarchy' have already been talked about among the people.

French works of the Enlightenment also began to circulate in the country.

But now is not a hundred years after the original time and space, and the Europeans themselves have not yet thoroughly played with the set of capitalist society, so some of the political and economic systems led by Chen Ming cannot be said to be 'learning' the West. While there are a lot of things out there, there are certainly some signs of European politics today.

Chen Han's administrative and legislative systems are no exception, and the so-called cabinet system seems to be produced in China, but when analyzed carefully, it is also very different from the cabinet of the former Ming Dynasty and the military aircraft department of the puppet Qing Dynasty. Although the Chinese cabinet is still nominally only assisting the emperor in handling government affairs, far from being as powerful as the British prime minister, and does not touch much military power, the power of the first and auxiliary ministers in Chen Han's cabinet is basically as great as that of the British prime minister in political and national affairs.

In terms of actual power, the authority of the first and auxiliary ministers of the cabinet is not comparable to that of the prime ministers in the Han and Tang dynasties, but after deducting the military power, it is not much different.

Today, China's prime minister is still quite powerful. It's just that Emperor Chen is too strong, which reflects the honest duty of the cabinet.

It's like Zhu Ming's cabinet, which shows different powers under different emperors.

If you look at it from a different emperor, without the prestige of Chen Ming, the cabinet will definitely be more 'independent' and will take the initiative to extract more authority, which is an inevitable provision of historical development.

The biggest difference between Chen Han and the constitutional monarchy is that there is no real parliament.

Even the Advisory Bureau was limited to new territories such as Korea, Annam, Burma, and Luzon, which was a special policy specially formulated by Chen Ming for the newly occupied territory, which was completely different from that within the mainland.

In a word, this is Chen Ming's intention to disperse some benefits to the indigenous upper class in those areas, if he wants to assimilate them as soon as possible, and if he wants to eliminate the resistance of the vested interest class among them, the fastest way is to include these people in the system of 'his own people', but this is completely different from the Congress.

The Advisory Council has the power to audit the financial expenditures of the local government, to review certain expenditures, to challenge the decisions of the courts, and to propose local bills or to express dissenting opinions on some of the government's work......

However, they do not have the right to appoint or dismiss officials, nor do they have the right to amend laws, let alone the right to elect officials.

All their dissent and dissenting opinions are reflected in the hands of the higher authorities, but they have no right to stop or hinder the local officials in the performance of their official duties until the higher authorities have made a decision.

And the Federation of Industry and Commerce that is being built in China can be said to be inferior to the Consultative Bureau, and they have no real power, and they can only be used as a think tank when the Industrial and Commercial Bureau formulates various laws and regulations. Through the members of the Federation of Industry and Commerce, who cover the whole country, the Department of Industry and Commerce can clearly understand the implementation of certain new regulations and laws and the various good and bad influences produced in the implementation. The latter is a detailed database that can provide feedback on the information they need, and then the Administration for Industry and Commerce will use this information to formulate and revise laws and regulations that have not yet been published, so as to better promote the progress and development of China's economy.

These are fundamentally different from the parliaments of capitalism.

Social change is never achieved overnight, a little change, one by one.

Chen Ming can only say that time is on Chen Han's side. It's 1790, not 1890.

Chen Ming did not want to have any constraints in military affairs during his reign. And as long as he has such a thought in his heart, there will be no soil and space for the parliament to survive in China.

Perhaps with the development of time, Chen Ming may change some of his minds, but now, there is no soil for parliament to grow in China.

Not to mention the Chen and Han royal families, it is all strata of Chinese society, and it is not psychologically prepared for them to run into capitalism now.

And the vast majority of people don't agree with this idea either. Social development has not yet reached this point, and the number of people who say the words 'constitutional monarchy' in China is only a very small minority.

Even some ordinary people feel that the cabinet is a team to help the emperor deal with miscellaneous and trivial matters, and the emperor still needs to make decisions on major national affairs, everything in the world is the emperor's, and the ministers can only implement it after the emperor has set the matter. What they can make their own decisions is only a small job that the emperor can't see, which is still too tired for the emperor of the province.

If you really don't have time to rest and take care of everything every day, that's not a good thing, isn't it.

So, there is a big difference in the perception of 'parliament' between the two societies.

If Chen Ming wants to change China's social form according to his own ideas, and push China into a period of social change earlier, then he needs a strong right to say no to everything. Otherwise, given the current social situation in China, it would be too simple and easy to shrink in the 'hole' for decades like the hibernating bear.

But the pace of the world will not stop with China's stagnation.

China has stopped, but the Europeans are not going to stop.

If you look at Europe today, unless they are completely brought to their knees by a complete war, capitalism is destined to develop in them.

Without America, without India, they still have the Celestial World, they still have the European continent.

Because there was a big fat meat in the Americas before, there was no large-scale invasion of Europe by Europeans. In the history of the original time and space, the large-scale entry of Europeans into Europe did not wait until the middle and late 19th century. But now if they don't have America, and the British don't have India, then their goal will have to shift to the heavenly world and the African continent.

Europe really isn't at its end yet.

The remote geographical location of the two sides determines that neither side can completely occupy the territory of the other side under the current technological conditions. Therefore, it is really difficult for China to completely interrupt the footsteps of Europeans.

And another thing that makes Chen Ming upset, Chen Han's royal family is really getting bigger and bigger now, and there are so many princes and princesses. It's hard to say what the princes will do in the future, the high-level magnates all know that these people will go to the Americas sooner or later.

But the princess won't go overseas.

In the city of Nanjing, there are several princess mansions that have been rebuilt, and those that are being rebuilt or under construction.

The site is all old houses in the past, and those that can be used are retained, otherwise they will be pushed to reconstruction.

Because of these princesses, there are many people at the top of Chen Han who have made trouble.

Today's emperors do not learn from the Ming and Song dynasties, and the horse is no longer a burden and a shackle for capable young people, but a boost to the top. Although it is impossible for Chen Han's princess to meddle in the affairs of the court like the princess in the Han and Tang dynasties, or even the heavenly opportunity of the change of the throne.

The little princes have also grown up one by one, and their palaces have either been built or are being built quickly.

Chen Ming did not make a distinction between a county king and a prince title on the prince.

Whether it is the one-word King of Song, or the two-word King of Luoyang, and the subsequent King of Xiangyang, King Puyang, King of Laiyang, King of Luyang, King of Yueyang, etc., the treatment is the same, it is the same level.

But the ghost knows that the two words are not as good as the one word. This is the influence of traditional Chinese ideas.

In the future, if these sons come to the Americas to become vassals, it will not be too late to change the word king. In the future, such a rule can be set for the Chinese clan.

In other words, the one-word king can be hereditary; Two words, one generation at a time?

The first thing in the royal blood is, of course, the chair.

Emperor Chen is so awesome that he can find land for his brothers and sons to settle the foundation, but what about his sons, grandsons, and great-grandchildren?

The whole earth is so big, Australia is already Chinese, most of Asia is also Chinese, and the Americas are also Chinese, no matter how capable Chen Ming's descendants are, they can't find a new place to settle their brothers and sons.

Therefore, the children and grandchildren of this son who stayed in China to sit on the dragon chair still have to find a stutter from the royal property. China's marriage system is different from that of Europe, and Europeans have no right to inherit illegitimate children, but although the right to inherit the family business is far from comparable to that of concubines and even maidservants in Chinese families, it is also impossible to drive people out without pulling out a dime. And this is the royal family, except for the queen's children, the others are concubines and concubines, which are essentially no different, and there are more to be divided.

A system must be finalized, otherwise no matter how much the royal family divides the industry, there will be poor households and poor eggs after a few generations.

Besides, Chen Ming's own troubles.

Chen Han has only one emperor's throne, but there are so many princes! Although a few have long said that they want to withdraw from the struggle for the throne, it is enough to be a feudal king. However, the division of the territory of the vassal state and the determination of the imperial throne really do not allow for the slightest negligence. If you don't do it properly, it's not a little troublesome.

After all, the master who failed to compete for the throne with which one inherited the throne is also Chen Ming's son, isn't it?

Chen Ming really didn't think about killing prisoners, it was not good to learn from anyone, and he didn't learn Kang Mazi and Li Shimin at this point.

Chen Ming felt that he was in control of the power, and even if these sons fought, they were fighting in front of him. It is completely different from the previous dynasties when the princes seized the throne and wooed the generals in the army and important ministers of the court, and formed parties for personal gain.

Therefore, he felt that these sons would not be able to do anything angry and resentful.

It is impossible for the Chen Han Empire to occupy all the land under the sun, and the empire itself has taken most of Asia, as well as Australia, from the Arctic Ocean to Antarctica, and this piece of land alone runs through the entire north and south of the earth. Chen Ming roughly estimated that this 'local' is already 40 million square kilometers small. It is larger than the land of the two empires on which the sun never sets. It's definitely a very, very vast empire!

And because the land is sparsely populated, Australia and Siberia are relatively easy to absorb and digest.

But now that Chen Han is involved in the Americas again, the empire will continue to expand in the future, and the vassal state is also the territory of the empire, but it is necessary to really consider the digestion problem after continuing to expand.

At the beginning, he didn't think about it so much, but out of distrust of the 'independence' of the Chinese people, he felt that it was easier for the feudal country to digest the land, so he threw out the big pie of overseas feudal country. On the contrary, they have reunited the hearts of the people more and successfully completed a national tax reform.

But looking at it now, Chen Ming really hit by mistake.

His 'overseas feudalism' really solved a big problem for the empire.

Then every vassal state was established, and the Chen Han Central Committee also left a burden.

And with the burden abandoned, the empire can travel lightly and go to conquer more lands in the Americas.

Although Chen Ming came from later generations, he did not agree with the harmonious situation of multi-ethnic unity. Not to mention the current era, even the rabbits of the 21st century have not been able to achieve true national unity.

And the current era is even more unsuitable for the birth of the 'river crab society'. Only the Juche nation-state will produce a strong country, Chen Ming is very sure of this.

Britain, France, Prussia, Austria, aren't these all Juche national powers? And the Ottomans, who were a little bit indistinguishable from each other, declined.

Chen Han is also a standard Juche nation-state, and it can even be said to be a single-nation state.

In the current era, including the next hundred years, except for Lao Mei, there is no multi-ethnic power. Even the United States, which has just emerged, is a small and weak country with immigrants.

The rise of the United States is driven by a combination of many reasons.

The Chen Han Empire is a nation-state - all foreigners have to endure the incursion of 'sinicization' all the time, from life to work and study, if you want to climb to a higher level in life, you must take the initiative to sinicize.

All people are a people, a nation, a language and a culture.

The advantages of the Han people in China are too great, and more than 99 percent of the people are Han people, as long as the Chinese language and Chinese culture education are carefully promoted, the great integration of ethnic groups will be achieved after two or three generations.
