The Ming calendar, December 1 of the first year of Taichang. The State Council was established as scheduled, and today is the day on which the State Council is convened for the first time. This marks a new beginning in the history of the Ming Dynasty.

The development of the State Council may be novel to many people at this time, but for Li Jiancheng, the establishment of the State Council is an effective and good way to restrain the bad party struggle in the Ming Dynasty. Let's put it this way about the badness of the party struggle in the Ming Dynasty, it can be said that there is no room for compromise when you see who bites whom, I will oppose what you support, and I will support what you oppose if you break my bones

The Council of State was established as a place to discuss national affairs, and a fair voting system was adopted to determine the final plan. Fundamentally, in order to ensure that their programs are implemented in Congress, the parties will not fail to produce them to the best of their ability. And as long as he, Li Jiancheng, exists for one day, he will guarantee the impartiality of the Congress!

As the saying goes, no alliance is indestructible, especially for a system like the State Department. Li Jiancheng will continue to strengthen their awareness, so that they can clearly understand what kind of power exists in the vote they have, and gradually Li Jiancheng will integrate the election of deputies to the National Assembly with the voice of the people. As a result, their political initiatives have to be biased towards society and the people, in order to win greater political appeals. In this kind of open situation, it will also make it impossible for them to shamelessly oppose a correct thing, if they meet someone who really can't turn the corner, Li Jiancheng will have a reason to replace him! Once they figure out that the vote in their hands can also make them the boss, their party affiliation and the nature of that kind of party struggle will also be re-purged by Li Jiancheng.

Having said that, although it shows that the partisan relations in North Korea are tense. However, it does not mean that one party does not vote, and all of them do not vote. There are also many righteous ministers among them, and they think that what is right is right. It doesn't have to be biased towards your teammates. For example, Zhou Jiamo, who is meritocracy, Yang Ling, who is more loyal, and Han Kuang, etc.

This is the Donglin Party, and in addition to corruption, the Ming Dynasty also had the existence of the so-called Qingliu. The other three parties are even more variables, and they are originally three parties, and whatever situation will be normal.

These secretaries of state have already entered the palace early this morning, and what is going to be held today is the State Council, not an ordinary court meeting!

None of the 35 people who came to the congress this time were simple figures, needless to say, the three parties of Qi, Zhejiang, and Chu. The figures of the Donglin Party came with many unusual people. For example, Zhao Nanxing, Ye Xianggao, Gao Panlong, Gu Dazhang, etc. have all successfully joined the Congress. In addition, the five neutrals are not general, such as Yang He and others are also among them.

These people were all welcomed into the Jianji Hall by the eunuchs and palace maids, and the hall had been cleaned up by Li Jiancheng, and a special long table was put on it, this chapter table was not ordinarily long, it was 12 meters long! When the ministers saw this, they were all a little speechless, the emperor's preference for long tables had already been established!

The ministers and the cabinet had participated in such long table meetings of the emperor before, and it seems that the parliament should follow this rule. Now the ministers are all gone. The emperor has not yet come, but Wang An, who came to preside over the management, asked everyone to sit down, the reason is that the emperor thinks that all the ministers are elders, how can there be a reason for the elders to stand and wait for the younger generations.

The ministers deliberated and accepted this etiquette. So the etiquette system of the meeting was formalized.

So everyone began to sit down, and the first assistant Fang Congzhe and the cabinet scholar Han Kuang sat on the left and right of the main seat respectively. Ye Xianggao sat in the third place, in the back row. The neutrals were basically sitting at the back of the pack.

Everyone felt a little different as soon as they sat down, and the underside of the buttocks was actually soft. Many people began to look at their chairs as soon as they sat down. That's right, this is the sofa cushion that Li Jiancheng made by raiding people to collect sponges.

The novelty finished the chair, and then the table was filled with fine pens and a clear crystal-like inkstone. Kettle and teacup! These things are new and incredible to these ministers!

Let's not talk about things like crystal teapots and cups that have never been seen before, let's just say that the people present with the fountain pen are all knowledgeable, which is a kind of plaything that circulates from the emperor's newspaper. In this way, the pen has to be at least a hundred taels, of course, these hundreds of taels are nothing to everyone, the key is that the incense ink in this one is really rich and nowhere to buy it outside!

Everyone pointed at the things on this table, even Ye Xianggao had to pick up the teacup and take a closer look. They all feel that this is definitely a treasure, and they can't get tens of thousands of taels, but the emperor put these things out for everyone to use, doesn't this bring bad atmosphere to the court? Some of the people started talking about it!

It didn't take long for Li Jiancheng to come! Wang An shouted, the emperor has arrived! I don't know who stood up first, everyone stood up even more, and after Li Jiancheng came in, he sat directly in his position, becoming more and more like a boss. Li Jiancheng said: "Everyone, please take a seat! ”

Everyone sat down, Li Jiancheng looked at everyone, he took a look, and then looked at Ye Xianggao and said, "This is Mr. Ye!" The last time I saw him in front of the palace gate, I haven't asked Mr. Ye to talk about it! It is a great honor for the country that Mr. Ye is willing to serve in the State Council this time! ”

Ye Xianggao was also noncommittal about the emperor's words, he looked at the emperor with a smile, this little emperor is not ordinary cunning. used him to bored the court before, obviously not hoping that he would go to the court, but now he said such things. Ye Xianggao said with a smile: "Your Majesty is serious, if Weichen can do some meager help for the country, it is also a blessing for Weichen!" ”

"Hehehe, Mr. Ye is an old minister of the Three Dynasties, with strong qualifications, when you teach more of me, I will also ask Mr. Ye to take care of me more in the future!" Li Jiancheng also said with a smile.

"Your Majesty is polite, Weichen will do his best!" Ye Xianggao replied again.

The two of them were like a little fox and an old fox, and the other ministers were extremely speechless.

Li Jiancheng and Ye Xianggao finished greeting and announced the official start of the State Council: "Today, the Ming calendar, December 1 of the first year of Taichang." I, officially announce the establishment of the Ming State Council! ”

"Before the State Council fulfills its duties, I will first read out the obligations and spirit of the founding of the State Council!"

"Obligation to establish the Council of State: The obligation of the Council of State is established by the principle that the state affairs are carried out under the premise that the state affairs are carried out without presiding over the government or at the request of the emperor. Its obligation is to deal with the affairs of the state fairly and effectively! ”

"The spirit of the State Council: The spirit of the State Council is to uphold fairness, rigor and efficiency; The principle of not abandoning or giving up is to handle state affairs. ”

These are the two points I want to emphasize, I hope you will keep this obligation and spirit firmly in mind, I hope you can all shout our slogan: do not abandon and do not give up! In doing you, you are all in power at the national level, how many people below are counting on you to live without me, I am not very old, but I have concluded, being an official is not a scholar, I will use all principles to look at the problem with your political achievements. Those who do not act and act indiscriminately, sooner or later I will clear them out of the court, and I hope that everyone here will remember what I said today. ”

"The establishment of today's Council of State also confirms what I said before, what can you ministers do to manage and implement it in the Diet. I have already made preliminary provisions on the rules and regulations of the State Council, which will be distributed to you later. But there are only two points in total, the first point is the handling of state affairs! ”

"In terms of the handling of state affairs, I said earlier that the excerpts played to the state in the future will be divided into four levels. With the exception of the military and the highest red rank, which are reviewed by me and the Cabinet, the Secretary of State has the authority to inspect the other three levels, regardless of the department. Of course, the handling of the fourth-level folds will naturally need to be referred to the National Assembly for consultation. And for the handling of these affairs, all of you present here must make plans for matters from the orange level to the orange level and above before the National Assembly consults. When the Diet is in progress, we will explain it in detail and decide the final plan through a vote! ”

"The second point is the implementation of the New Deal! This can be said to be an opportunity for everyone here, and a test of their ability! This item is also divided into regional and national! It is possible for several people or one person to make a plan, and effective opinions from other sources can also be obtained. But before this kind of thing passes the National Assembly vote, it must be submitted to me in advance, and I will review it first, I may not necessarily vote, but I must first review the statute before I am allowed to enter the National Assembly voting process! Besides, this process must be within your responsibility, don't let me worry about the Ministry of Works, such a thing as the History Department! ”

"This time the Council of State has a prime minister and a deputy prime minister. There are the first assistant Fang Congzhe, and the cabinet university scholar Han Kuang is in charge! That's all I have to say before the meeting, about the rules and regulations, after the meeting, I will issue the charter. In addition, I once again emphasized that I have the right to revoke the National Assembly and resume the court at any time, do you still have any questions that you don't understand?
