In March of the sixth year of Emperor Wa, the new army set out.

In April, the central capital was broken, and Wan Yanjing was killed.

In May, the Jin Kingdom died and the Northern Expedition was successful.

In June, he destroyed Western Xia by the way.

In July, he sent troops to garrison in the northwest, went straight to the right into Yuanmeng, and attacked Liao to the left.

By the end of November, the Liao State was broken, Yuan and Meng were expelled from the prairie, and Dali was called a minister.

The world is safe, and the four seas are peaceful.

After Qiao Mu moved his troops back to the court, she entrusted all the matters related to the implementation of the same reforms in the newly fought area to her son Zhao Kuo, and let Zhao Kuo's eldest son and eldest daughter participate in politics and study together.

In the same year, the government reform began.

The reason why Qiao Mu did not move the foundation of the government before was mainly because she needed the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty to listen to her words and fully implement the previous reforms, at that time, she needed the government to be fully obedient and need a word, but now the world is basically stable, if she still engages in a word, she may not have much problem when she is alive, but when she dies, there will be more and more problems, and it may even cause great damage, causing great damage to the people of the whole country and even the country itself.

Therefore, she must comprehensively reform the government while she is alive, realize the separation of powers and the supremacy of the constitution, and put all the power of the imperial power and the official army in the cage of the constitution.

Only in this way can we ensure the interests of the broad masses of the people as much as possible, and ensure as much as possible that the power of the imperial power and officials is out of control will not cause too much impact and will not hurt the people too much.

It's a thing that takes time.

Therefore, Qiao Mu was not in a hurry, but before the Chinese New Year, he notified all the people who were proficient in criminal law in the whole country to gather in Lin'an after the New Year.

……

On the eighth day of the first month of the seventh year of Emperor Wa

Qiming Palace, the Great Dynasty Meeting

Qiao Mu was wearing a phoenix robe, sat on it, raised his hand and waved, signaling all the ministers present to sit down, and then took out a document and said:

"This court meeting is the first big court meeting after the first day of the New Year, and the so-called Vientiane is renewed, and some things naturally have to be reformed and updated.

Where is the prime minister left and right?

The two of you led the six Shangshu and a group of Zhengyipin officials to set up a cabinet, and the two of you were the chief and deputy cabinet chiefs, in charge of cabinet affairs, and then all matters of the DPRK and China were handed over to us through the cabinet.

It can be a small court.

Where are the six books?

Starting today, six departments will be disbanded.

The former Ministry of Ordnance was reformed into the Ordnance Department and the Ministry of Military Affairs, which did not coerce each other and assisted each other, with the Ordnance Department in charge of the reform of ordnance manufacturing and the distribution of military rations, and the Ministry of Military Affairs in charge of the military's political ideology.

The Ministry of Education was in charge of education, the Ministry of Culture was in charge of the national review of contextual culture, and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs was in charge of all foreign affairs of vassal states, subject states, and other countries with which it had no diplomatic relations.

The Ministry of Finance is only in charge of the overall planning of the national finance, the Ministry of Taxation is only in charge of tax collection, and the Food Bureau is in charge of the national grain and grain pricing balance.

The former Ministry of Officials was reformed into the Supervision Department and the Inspection Department, the Supervision Department was in charge of supervising government affairs, and the Inspection Department was in charge of inspecting the achievements of officials during their tenure.

The former Ministry of Engineering was reformed into the Ministry of Engineering and the State Administration of R&D, the Ministry of Engineering is in charge of all engineering audits and inspections across the country, and the State Administration of R&D is independent of the government department and is an academic department.

The former Criminal Department was reformed into the procuratorate, the Legislative Yuan and the Law Enforcement Yuan, the three courts were divided and could not be coerced, the procuratorate was in charge of all official corruption, bribery and other criminal acts, and the Legislative Yuan was in charge of legislative power, but the legislation had to be approved by the cabinet and the upper and lower parliaments, and the Law Enforcement Yuan was responsible for managing all criminal and civil cases in the country.

Dali Temple was changed to the Central Law Enforcement Institute.

The appointment of the specific person in charge of the newly established department has been written and will be issued at the meeting.

The rest of the officials, all according to the original management affairs to the newly established department to report, the specific location will be informed at that time, and then the establishment of the upper and lower parliaments, but in the future, all matters involving all the people of the country, such as tax increases or all-out war, all must pass the upper and lower parliaments and the cabinet, including me, that is, the future emperor's fourfold review, the affairs of the cabinet by the cabinet, after the upper and lower councils voted to decide whether to pass, if by an absolute majority of the pass or not, the cabinet shall not have objections, If it is passed or rejected by a narrow margin, and the cabinet itself has an opinion, it can appeal to the emperor, and the emperor will decide whether to pass or reject it directly, or change some of the regulations and conduct a second review.

The Upper Council is made up of officials.

Central officials account for 30 percent, and local officials from all provinces and municipalities share the remaining 70 percent proportionally.

The lower council is made up of the people.

One percent of the merchants, sixty percent of the workers, two percent of the peasants, and one percent of the rest of the people.

The upper and lower parliaments are also formed by the members of the cabinet, and the upper and lower councils are formed as soon as the cabinet is formed, and when the constitution is established after a certain period of time, it needs to be reviewed by the upper and lower parliaments. ”

After Qiao Mu said an order, all the officials below were silent for a long time, not speechless, mainly because there were so many words, they also had time to sort it out, smooth it out, and consider the pros and cons of each, only by taking these into account, it was good to raise questions or raise some objections.

Half an hour later, before some officials who were not very flexible in their brains could react, the prime ministers and important ministers of the central government all shouted loudly about the sage and the sage, expressing their approval of the reform of the arbor.

The left and right prime ministers and important ministers are not stupid, they can clearly find that this is the emperor to delegate power, this is the emperor to restrain the monarchy from himself, although these changes on the power constraints of officials are also quite serious, but the emperor is already willing to use himself as an example to restrain the monarchy in advance, what else can they say?

Naturally, he hastened to agree.

After all, no matter what, this is beneficial to the future, whether it is the emperor's monarchy or the power of officials, no matter which kind of power is not restrained, it is likely to cause great harm, when encountering a holy emperor or an honest but not pedantic official, the power without restraint can naturally bring better changes, but if it can't be touched, if it can't be touched, the power without restraint is poison, which can poison the people of one side, and even poison the people of the whole country.

It turns out that the probability of a wise man and an honest and non-pedantic official is too low. So it's better to put power in a cage and restrain it, at least the situation is stable.

The reform of the government officially began.

It is known as Emperor Wa's New Deal in history.

Also known as constitutional reform.
