Linghe Temple.

This is the place where the kings of the past dynasties read the imperial approval and performed the government affairs.

There was a crisp sound of "pop", and I don't know which royal instrument Alexei smashed to pieces.

At this moment, the palace attendants of Linghe Hall have long been dismissed, and only the king and the Minister of Finance are in the palace.

Alexei was unsmiling, had a more tolerant personality, and rarely criticized ministers and chamberlains. It was very rare to be angry like today, and the guards on duty at the temple gate couldn't help but be shocked when they heard it.

Since the New Deal was conceived, Alexei's relationship with the ministers had suddenly become strained, and the chamberlains and guards were cautious for fear of angering the young king.

In the hall, Alexei and Zhijian sat opposite each other, their faces were kind, and they were a little apologetic, how could they look angry?

"It's not that the old ministers are coerced by each other, but they are really old, their energy is not good, and their hearts are more than enough but their strength is insufficient. Rank Jian arched his hand and politely refused Alexei's retention.

"I just let the teacher be wronged. ”

"Alas," Zhi Jian waved his hand disapprovingly, "to do a full set of plays, whether you are 'outspoken' in the court hall or 'reprimanded' by Your Majesty here, it is the duty of your subordinates to be able to block the mouths of all ministers." "It turned out that the anecdote to advise Alexei in the court hall was to set off Alexei's tough posture.

"But no matter what, you are my mentor. So rough ...... to you"

Zhijian understood what Alexei meant, and waved his hand to stop Alexei's next words: "Those who have always achieved great things are not informal. Judging from the eight points of the New Deal, you have a big plan, so why worry about the details. The implication is that it touches the interests of the family gatekeeper, even if the image of the king is plump and round, he must be ready to be smeared at any time. What's more, throughout the ages, all those who have achieved great things have been thick and black. If you want to become a saint and a wise king, you should ultimately look at the result, and you should not be burdened by fame.

However, Rank Jian also had doubts in his heart: "I understand that you want to use the Hanmen scholars on a large scale to bring more vitality to the dynasty while balancing the family." But what is Your Majesty's eagerness for? Also, by proposing the establishment of the Senate, you are not adding constraints to yourself. "Most of the courtiers are agents and spokesmen of the interests of the family, and the resistance to the implementation of the new policy can be imagined, and the increase in the Senate is a double resistance in the eyes of the rank and file.

"Demonic Calamity. Alexei slowly spat out these two words.

Rank Jian was taken aback: "It's already imminent?"

"Ten years at most, the Pope himself said. ”

Rankkan was stunned. The news is hard to digest. However, it is a little more reassuring to say that there is still a decade to prepare.

Alex asked coldly, "Teacher Zhijian, do you know why you wanted to eliminate the sect mountain gate in the first place, popularize the martial arts hall and martial arts field?"

"Isn't it because of the strength of the sect that threatens the existence of secular power?"

Alexei shook his head: "Definitely." ”

The existence of secular power is to maintain the system of life, production, and reproduction, so that the common people who have no martial arts have a basis for survival.

The existence of the sect mountain gate is to unite the warriors, and use the incentive mechanism of the sect and the competition between the mountain gates to promote the continuous growth of the warrior system.

After the last demonic calamity ended, the people had a strong sense of dependence and security on the few remaining Xuan cultivators, and with this advantage, the sect quickly gathered disciples and grew in power like a snowball.

In the early days after the end of the demonic disaster, the coexistence mechanism of secular power and sectarian mountain gates had a positive effect on the rapid recovery of the population and strength of the spirit race to a certain extent.

Later, the growth of the sect's mountain sect affected the foundation of the existence of the regime, but the most fundamental drawback still lies in their monopoly of exercises and cultivation resources.

The sect is faintly above the dynasty, and regards ordinary people as no different from ants. In order to ensure the superiority of the top, the cultivated elites are always "rare". This deformed cultivation system not only deprives ordinary people of their way of cultivating, but also due to the lack of sharing and communication between them, it is very easy to cause pathological competition, leading to sharp confrontation between various sects and even ordinary cultivators.

Once there are three calamities and six tribulations, the sects are too busy to take care of themselves, and instead treat the ordinary people as a burden and a burden. How can we obtain the broadest foundation for survival? In this way, the comprehensive system of self-protection and self-help of the entire spirit race is actually very fragile. Once the sect is unable to receive a steady stream of replenishment from the common people, it is only a matter of time before it is crippled or severed.

The existence of the sect will no longer be a guarantee for the growth of the strength of the spirit race, but will become a shackle. It is unrealistic to expect it to be outlawed by a single order. If it is allowed to remain big, it will inevitably lead to the solidification of the interest class, and if it is banned at this time, it will undoubtedly be bloody and bloody, affecting the foundation of the survival of the entire spirit race.

Fortunately, with the growth of the sect, its drawbacks continue to magnify. The internal relationship between teachers and students, factions, and family relations is intertwined, and the secular authorities skillfully exploit these contradictions, providing an opportunity to split and disintegrate the sects.

After splitting the sect into relatively scattered family gates, it can be closer to the demands of the general public to a certain extent, and can become the agent of the secular power and the foundation of the prosperity of the dynasty.

At this point, the sectarian mountain gate died out, and the family gate valve rose.

Speaking of which, the rank is faintly linked to the current relationship between the implementation of the New Deal.

Alexei went on to explain that after the abolition of the sectarian mountain gate system, the dynasty wanted to grasp the military cultivation system in its hands, and the popularization of the martial arts hall dojo became a top priority, and countless resources were consumed. It is only by relying on the emerging family lords to share the burden for the dynasty. In return, in addition to serving in the military or continuing to integrate into the martial arts dojo, the rest of the martial arts dojo will have the opportunity to be recruited by the family to support and protect the rapid expansion of the real industry.

When the demon calamity is raging, although the overall synergy and overall strength of the spirit clan have been greatly improved compared to before, and although the family gate valve is closer to the general public than the sect mountain gate, the high gate lord with the bloodline surname as the core foundation still gives priority to his own interests, and will do everything to delay and delay the impact of the demon calamity on himself. This is actually not much different from the previous sectarian mountain gate.

If there is a difference between the two, it is that there are no intricate relationships within the family to exploit, and the opportunity for suppression and differentiation is slim, and the process is more difficult.

The core of the new policy is nothing more than to minimize the privileges of the family lords, and allocate more resources to the common people by opening up channels such as selection, promotion, and decoration.

The common class cannot compete with the family without obtaining enough benefits and without a strong spokesperson. And this substitution is very likely to be bloody and cruel. Therefore, the establishment of the Senate House to ensure that the family gains stronger authority than before, so that it is possible for them to carry out a certain degree of renunciation.

Optimize the core power structure, and implement a multi-faceted dual-track system of responsibility and accountability, political affairs and military affairs, monarchical power and ministerial power, deliberative power and legislative power, etc., so that power can be effectively checked and balanced, and the operation will be smoother. But the family is slowly getting bigger, and then backlashing. Only in this way can it be possible to gather a wider range of forces, and then fight against the demons to gain more chances of victory.

"Then I'll ask the teacher, why do I figure it out slowly. Alexei asked.

The already thin figure of the anecdotal book seems to have slumped a few points at this moment.

Yes, it is a matter of the family's own interests, how could they not want to do everything possible to delay the implementation of the new policy? This is actually as full of dangers as the abolition of the sectarian mountain gate in the first place. And time is not on Alexei's side. Ten years, how can there be room for a calm layout?

If you are not careful, the dynasty will be plunged into endless internal strife and strife. As I have said before, there are concerns in this regard.

Just now, he tried his best to be a servant, and although his heart was clear, he heard about these secrets, and when he realized that the new policy that urgently needed to be implemented, he was inevitably suspected of picking on his own and staying out of the matter.

Thinking of this, Yi Zhijian said respectfully: "Your Majesty, the minister has withdrawn the request of Zhishi and recommended the tax secretary Ruisen to be the deputy minister of the exchequer. ”

"Oh, tell me why you recommend it. ”

Yijian explained: "Risen is not valued in the family because he is a concubine. But after all, he was born in the Dilanke family, and his knowledge and vision are not comparable to ordinary people, and he is talented and quite pragmatic. In terms of tax revenue, he is very insightful, and in fact, he has participated in the formulation of many new fiscal and tax laws in recent years. He was not too ostracized by the family and was able to spare no effort to participate in the New Deal, making him the ideal candidate to succeed the Chancellor of the Exchequer.

"Hmm!" Alexei nodded slightly, affirming the candidate recommended by the anecdotes.

In fact, Alexei needed to repeatedly screen and win over a group of people who agreed with the New Deal in the DPRK and China, then rely on and reuse a group of intermediary figures like Ruison, and finally gradually cultivate, select, and appoint the civilian class as staunch supporters of the New Deal, and constantly enrich the system of government at all levels. In this way, there will be a gradual transition between the old and the new, and there will be a smooth process of relieving conflicts and contradictions, so as not to cause huge hidden dangers that suddenly erupt.

This is called the old traitor, no, the old man seeks the country.

Ten years seems like a long time, but it seems too short to cultivate a generation of ordinary people to grow up calmly and replace them as the backbone of the whole society.

At this moment, Zhi Jian finally understood why the king was so "in a hurry" and felt the weight of the king's body.

"Your Majesty, after all, I 'angered' you just now, it is better to punish me for a year, I will call me sick, and then you will appoint Ruison as acting Chancellor of the Exchequer to preside over the daily work of the finance department. In this way, it not only punished me, but also cultivated Ruisen for a while. When the time comes, we will correct it—is that possible?"

Alexei bowed deeply in front of Rank Jian: "Good! Great good! Teacher, this matter has been taught to the students." However, I would recommend a fine of six months. ”

"How can this be! The old minister originally wanted to be a minister, but this nominally fined him for half a year, but in fact he enjoyed half a year, and the minister's heart was uneasy!"

"Teacher, it's really three sentences that don't leave the bank, and they are all at such a juncture, and they are still planning carefully for the finances. However, I'm talking about punishing those courtiers who don't know what to do for half a year. As for you, of course you're among them!"

"Your Majesty, the old minister is willing to be the chicken that sets an example for the monkey. ”

Speaking of this, the monarch and the minister looked at each other and smiled.

The implementation and implementation of the New Deal should first gradually infiltrate among the courtiers, strive for more understanding and support, and lay a broader foundation for the implementation of the New Deal. But that's not enough.

The drastic implementation of the new policy to cede the interests of the family sometimes requires a further three steps back, and in some places it is not an inch. At the same time, it is also necessary to grasp the financial power, military power, and official power, and establish a stable, fast, and efficient personnel training system, so that the common people can truly become the mainstay of the dynasty, which is the ultimate goal.

In this way, at the moment of the demonic disaster, everyone can use their lives and fight hard.

After figuring out the reason, Zhijian very tacitly gave Alexei the best response plan - to support the middle figures between the family and the commoners, and to suppress the courtiers. This undoubtedly went to Alexei's heart.

The name of the gentleman is well deserved.

In addition to Risson, what other intermediary figures can be appointed? Strive for and cultivate? Alexei gave Lang Xuan a week to brew the detailed rules, which is not to build a team for himself and find candidates to gain enough buffer.

In addition to the tight time, competent officials are also extremely scarce, and they also have to withstand the huge pressure of a cadre of courtiers, Alexei is also the first two big.

Speaking of this, a thought suddenly flashed through Zhijian's mind.

Forbidden Army! Sub-Battalion! Levy!

Starting from Alexei's great-grandfather, he recruited civilian children from the martial arts hall dojo to form a deputy battalion of the forbidden army. Nominally, it is to act as cannon fodder, and now it seems that it is not waiting for the opportunity to replace the main camp at any time.

The new policy is so frightening, how can the king not hold the military power firmly in the palm of his hand?

Before Levi was on the side of the king in the court hall, the ministers were just speculating, and at this moment the rank was 100% certain, Levi was simply the best choice for the commander of the forbidden army.

He not only served the king since he was a child, but also governed the army rigorously and impartially, won the support of his subordinates, and was still a good hand in war. The most important thing is that he was born as a commoner, and it is difficult to imagine any other opportunity to get ahead besides relying on the king.

"Levy ......" Zhi Jian couldn't help muttering to himself, if he was a king, he would definitely create an opportunity to hand over the forbidden army to this son.

"Could it be that the teacher wants to recommend this person?"

"Old Minister......

"I think this person is still lacking in polishing and needs to be tested again. No hurry, no hurry!"
