"Your Majesty, you have the right to set up a clan house to manage all clan affairs, and this right is already big enough. If the matter of appointing the crown prince is handed over to the Zongren Mansion again, it will make the Zongren Mansion a big deal. Regarding Liu Hong's proposal, Liu Ju insisted on opposing it.

"Uncle Huang, don't worry, listen to me tell me in detail what I think." Liu Hong is very happy about Liu Ju's attitude, because it shows that Liu Ju is really thinking about him.

"Your Majesty, you say." Thinking of Liu Hong's previous "miracles", Liu Ju nodded and said, "Weichen will help you with your staff." ”

"Uncle Huang, although the matter of choosing the heir to the throne is important, it will not take long. Even if the selection is meticulous, it is enough to have a three-to-five-year one. It would be a waste to set up a special agency for such a short period of time. ”

"Of course, for this waste, we can afford it." Speaking of this, Liu Hong said solemnly: "But once the department is established, there will definitely be people who are interested in the people in the department." Then this test result may be greatly discounted. And what worries me the most is that if I set up this department, if I encounter an emperor with a slightly weak temperament, it may be possible to let the matter of selecting the heir to the throne be controlled by those foreign ministers. ”

"Your Majesty has a point in saying this, but the problem is that even if the Zongren Mansion is allowed to manage it, these problems still exist."

"Leave the matter to the Zongren Mansion, the matter has not been resolved." Hearing this, Liu Hong nodded and said: "However, all the people in the Zongren Mansion are members of the Han family, even if the worst happens, the harm is definitely much lighter than the power falling into the hands of outsiders." ”

"Alas, it's really not easy for Your Majesty to even think about this kind of problem!"

Such an obvious thing. Liu Hongyi said that it was not clear where Liu Ju could be. After all, once an outsider usurps the throne, not only the Han will be destroyed. In order to prevent future troubles, people will definitely cut down the grass and eradicate the roots of the clan. But the usurpation of the clan is different, at most he will kill a few who are a threat to him, and how to live the rest.

But it was such a thing, such a taboo thing, but he didn't dare to say it clearly, "Your Majesty, you are right. But let's. It's best to come up with a foolproof solution. That is the fundamental way to solve the problem. ”

"yes, that's what I thought, too." Liu Hong said to Liu Ju: "I plan to set up a temporary organization in the Zongren Mansion. Specialized in dealing with such big things as this kind of assessment of heirs or something. It's like a house or a congress, and when it's needed, it's gathered. Usually. What should you do? ”

"Your Majesty, that's a good idea. However, there are not many people in the Zongren Mansion, and such an organization cannot be established at all. ”

"Yes, the current Zongren Mansion has only been established for a short time, and there are seven or eight people in total. There is no way to set up such a department. Thinking of this, Liu Hong fell into deep thought. By the way, in the previous novels, in those families. All have elders' houses. I'll just get some people in the clan and set up an elders' council. ”

"Made, who said reading novels is no good! Isn't it just because I watched Xianxia that I made a contribution point. Look at fantasy, did you get an elders' meeting! Thinking of this, Liu Hong was proud, "Uncle Huang, do you think we can set up an elder's council?" ”

"Establish a Council of Elders, and serve as an official of the third rank or above, or a member of the clan who has the rank of scholar or knight of the third rank or above. The clansmen within the emperor's five suits are sixty years old, and the clansmen outside the emperor's five suits who have reached the age of seventy are all members of the presbyterian council. Liu Ju kept chattering, don't mention that admiration. Your Majesty is really not simple, thinking of such a perfect way, and coming up with it in such a short time. ”

In Liu Ju's opinion, Liu Hong's method is too perfect. By using the Council of Elders to manage these major affairs, you can get rid of the excessive power of the Zongzheng and the tail of the Zongzheng. There are so many members of the Presbyterian Church that it is very difficult to form a unified opinion. In this way, it is possible to get rid of the presbyterian dictatorship.

"Your Majesty, if you have an executive body, how can you guarantee its justice?"

"I feel that Zongzheng and the other personnel of the Zongren Mansion should not join the Council of Elders before they leave their posts, and they will specialize in supervising whether the Council of Elders is fair in handling these matters." Speaking of this, Liu Hong felt that it was still not very safe, and then said: "Of course, this is just dealing with general matters. For example, the assessment of the heir to the throne is not enough to be supervised by the Zongren Mansion alone. When the time comes, the emperor, the imperial court, and the parliament will all send people to supervise them. ”

"Your Majesty, there are so many people interfering, so will the assessment be affected?"

"Impact? They dare! Hearing this, Liu Hong glared directly, "I let them supervise, not make trouble." Once someone deliberately disrupts the assessment, then if they are caught, they will not be politely executed. Even if he already has real evidence, he must question it after the assessment is completed, and then arrange a new assessment. ”

"Your Majesty, if the courtiers make trouble, we will all deal with it." Looking at Liu Hong, Liu Ju said seriously: "But Your Majesty, if the emperor of later generations is not satisfied with the results of the assessment and has to come according to his wishes, then all this we discuss will be meaningless." ”

"Oh my god, this is really a thing!"

For this matter, Liu Hong really made a difficulty. Everyone has preferences, and the emperor is certainly no exception. Since he is the highest peak, he definitely wants to choose an heir according to his own ideas. This is human nature, and it is difficult to avoid it.

But the problem is, he's done all this, to a large extent, just to guard against something like this. After all, in history, the emperor who was poured "lost soup" was not chosen, and the bad emperor was not chosen, but there were many appearances.

However, although he wanted to prevent this, the emperor's authority was too great. If the Emperor and the Council of Elders really don't deal with each other, then the Council of Elders really can't compete with the Emperor. And if the emperor's choice is reasonable, but once the situation he fears arises, it will be bad.

"Uncle Huang, do you think this will work?" After thinking about it repeatedly, Liu Hong said: "I directly set the law on what we discussed, and the matter of the succession to the throne is completely the responsibility of the Zongren Mansion, and the emperor cannot intervene. However, if he is not satisfied with the results of the Zongren Mansion, the emperor can directly veto it and let the Zongren evaluate again. ”

"Your Majesty, what if the emperor is not satisfied all the time?"

"Since he is the emperor, then his ideas must be taken seriously." Faced with Liu Ju's question, Liu Hong said: "Therefore, I have decided that the emperor can unconditionally veto the results of the assessment three times. But after three times, he had to ask where he was unhappy with the results. Then Congress voted by secret ballot on his statement, passed, and then went ahead. But if it doesn't work, then the result will take effect immediately, and even the emperor can't change it! (To be continued......)
