In 976 AD, the Central Plains world because of the death of Taizu, everything eased down, the Xiang Party was still a little-known small tribe at this time, the founder of the Western Xia Empire Li Jiqian was still a young wolf outside the Saiwai, the Liao State at this moment Liao Jingzong Yeluxian's foreign policy still did not take the initiative to attack the Central Plains in the south, only the Northern Han Dynasty's policy, Tubo Gaoshan and other tribes are trying their best to reconcile with the Great Song Dynasty.

But in distant Europe, Rome and France are fighting over a Lorraine, and just next year, Otto II will have a bitter war in Lorraine over Lorraine, King of France, Lothair I.
The world is still moving at its own pace.
The giant of the Great Song Dynasty has not exposed too many weaknesses at the moment, although Zhao Lao Er has become the emperor, but the people of the world have been comfortable enough for a long time, especially those intertwined families, as long as they do not pose too much threat to their interests, they have no opinion on who will be the emperor, so this makes Zhao Lao Er sit firmly enough on the throne.
Zhao Lao Er was also very entangled at the moment, he really wanted to continue to send troops to Cangzhou, but after killing the prince, the palace was already full of rumors, coupled with the mysterious disappearance of the 20,000 Jinggi soldiers, he did not dare to continue to disperse the military strength of Bianjing.
Therefore, Zhao Lao Er finally weighed it again and again, and decided to stabilize the court first, solve the internal worries, and then talk about the external troubles.
As a result, the two external troubles of the Northern Han Dynasty and Cangzhou were first put by Zhao Lao Er in a position to be dealt with later.
This is good news for Jiang Yin, Jiang Yin is not short of money, people, and food, what he lacks most now is time, only time, which is the biggest restriction that hinders him from quickly forming his empire.
Cangzhou New City is stepping up construction, urban design drawings are also hotly released, for the newly built Ming Palace, that is, the predecessor of the Forbidden City, Jiang Yin waved his hand, and dismantled this great palace.
Wang Sizong, Wang Xianqi, Yang Guangyi, Shi Shouxin, Li Jixun and others, all were assigned to the Forbidden City, for this vast palace covering an area of more than 1,000 acres, Jiang Yin did not have the idea of monopolizing it, as a young man who received a materialist education in later generations, Jiang Yin of course scoffed at the emperor's statement that he was ordered by heaven.
A luxurious palace of more than 1,000 acres, which is full of beautiful women who can never sleep in their lives, these women are locked in the depths of this palace, and many people will not be able to see the emperor for the rest of their lives, which is simply an unimaginable captivity in later generations.
Not to mention that this palace is full of eunuchs who have been castrated, Jiang Yin, as a modern person, always feels that as a man, that place is always a place about his dignity, Jiang Yin once put himself in the shoes of thinking that if he is castrated and has to serve others, then he will choose death as soon as possible, this kind of heart-wrenching humiliation can be felt once the position is reversed.
Therefore, Jiang Yin admires the one who wrote 'the swan song of the historian, the rhyme of the separation.' 'Sima Qian'.
In fact, Jiang Yin had already thought about the future of the Great Song Dynasty after he got the strange stone, and there is no doubt that because of his existence, the Great Song Dynasty in history will embark on another trajectory.
The strange stone catalyzed Jiang Yin's intelligence, and also allowed him to see further, if he continued to enjoy without scruples like those emperors in history, sitting on three thousand beauties, eating delicacies from the mountains and seas, such a country, after he, a person with a modern vision, left, would quickly return to the trajectory of the original feudal monarchy.
Of course, Jiang Yin also likes his own enjoyment, beauty, money, power, who doesn't like these things, but because his intelligence is super high, his self-control ability has also become very amazing, he can ensure that he will not be affected by these things, but he definitely does not dare to guarantee that after a hundred years, the next monarch of the Great Song Dynasty can also have strong control like himself.
It is extremely frightening to count on individual self-discipline to ensure the comfort of the state, but it is also what all dynasties in Chinese history have experienced.
Therefore, when later generations look at China's feudal history, they see such a scene, the emperor is not greedy for beauty, and is diligent in government affairs, so the country will flourish day by day, and various prosperous times will appear.
However, once the emperor's personal atmosphere is bad, greedy for enjoyment, and the government is wasted, then the country will be like a runaway train, sinking headlong into the abyss, and in the end it is often the end of the country's ruin.
Therefore, the rise and fall of the country is based on the self-discipline of the emperor alone.
This is obviously not a stable system that a mature society should have, and after combining the research of social and capital varialism in later generations, Jiang Yin finally found a scientific social system suitable for the Great Song Dynasty.
That's a constitutional monarchy.
Constitutional monarchy, Jiang Yin has always felt that this is a genius system, because of this system, the emperor can no longer do whatever he wants, the separation of powers, mutual containment, and the phenomenon of one person's arbitrariness and arbitrariness has been reduced to a minimum, but this will not completely ban the emperor's rights, the emperor still has the right to make the final decision, but this must be in the case of the consent of two of the three powers.
The advantage of this system is that the security of the country is not tied to the emperor alone, but to the hundreds of parliamentarians and the emperor in the three powers, which makes the national policy and system promotion more reliable.
Jiang Yin also intends to apply this system to himself, even if it is equivalent to weakening his rights in disguise, but in order to be a model for the time, Jiang Yin must do so.
The ninth year of Kaibao, December 23.
Jiang Yin summoned 27 people, including Wang Sizong, Wang Xianqi, Cheng Fengge, Yang Guangyi, Shi Shouxin, Li Jixun, Liu Qingyi, Liu Shouzhong, Cao Fang, Xun Mo, Wang Shiyi, Cai Changyi, Lin Yue, and Di Yan, to hold the first time in the history of the Great Song Dynasty and the first time in the history of the world to discuss the national system in the newly built Taihe Palace.
At this meeting, Jiang Yin finally defied public opinion and determined the state system of the New Song Dynasty: constitutional monarchy, he served as the first person of the New Song Dynasty monarchy, and the twenty-seven people attending the meeting at the same time were divided into three groups, one group of nine people, and the three groups respectively managed the legislative, law enforcement, and judicial powers of the New Song Empire.
In order to prevent the monarch's dominance and abuse of power, Jiang Yin used the most concise words to introduce the mutual containment between the three major institutions and their common restrictions on the monarch.
Under the three powers, Jiang Yin followed the administrative division in ancient China, and successively established the Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of Households, the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Criminal Affairs and the Ministry of Industry, each of which was temporarily managed by a Shangshu and temporarily responsible for national affairs.
Next, Jiang Yin announced the basic constitution of the New Song Empire, and this time all the participants were stunned.
Looking at the people in His Highness who were thinking hard, Jiang Yin smiled slightly, they may not know what a great meeting they participated in now
It wasn't until ten in the evening that the parliament that established the national system of the New Song Empire came to an end, and everyone dragged their tired bodies back
They really didn't know that a hundred years later, on the 23rd day of the Common Era, this day was also called 'Chinese National Sports Day' by later generations, which was the first day of the founding and revitalization of China, and it was also the national day of the Chinese Empire
