All kinds of people passed through the streets, and some of them glanced at Zhu Qi with curious eyes.

Zhu Qi knew that from now on, his every move, word and deed would be closely monitored, and he didn't know how many Tianyan spies there would be in the Funing Marquis Mansion, and he would no longer have a credible person!

This surveillance could be a year, two years, three years, or even a lifetime!

Zhu Qi knew that he needed to completely forget about the assassination case, and even force himself to believe that he had nothing to do with the assassination, so that Emperor Jiajing and even the people of the world could believe that he was innocent, and only Dingxi Hou was the assassin of Emperor Jiajing!

A carriage drove slowly, and there was a royal flag in front of the carriage to open the way, and the hanging nameplate was impressively written with the words 'Inspector of Students'.

Wang Shouren has returned to Beijing!

After six years of school tour, the school tour envoys who have traveled all over the state capitals of Daming have finally returned to Beijing!

In the past six years, Wang Shouren has written while studying, and his thoughts on mind have been completed, and his disciples have respected Wang Shouren as a sage in the world!

When the carriage of the sages of the world arrived at Chengtianmen, Wang Shouren stepped out of the carriage and looked up at the plaque of Chengtianmen, and sighed softly.

Compared with today's Confucianism, which takes reason as the skin and law as the backbone, Wang Shouren's mind is closer to the traditional concept of Confucianism, but after all, the mind is a new type of doctrine that has a unique path, and there is still a long way to go if it wants to be accepted by the world.

In the imperial study, Yang Yiqing, Jiang Mian, Zhai Luan and Jin Gui, the scalps of the four pavilion elders exploded!

After a few years, Emperor Jiajing finally attacked the household and the officials!

Of course, this is not unexpected, after all, since the day when the six ministries were killed and the four ministries were killed, the Manchu dynasty has been psychologically prepared for the reform of the officials and households.

But Emperor Jiajing not only has to attack the two subordinates, but he also has to attack the inner minister!

The Ministry of Officials was changed to the Ministry of Personnel, Xie Qian served as the Minister of Personnel, the Ministry of Household was divided into two, the Ministry of Civil Affairs and the Ministry of Finance were established, Yang Yiqing was also the Minister of Finance, and the Minister of Civil Affairs was temporarily absent.

The Ministry of Officials has become the Ministry of Personnel, and it is not even a change of soup or medicine, at best, it is a change of name, and the original functions of the Ministry of Officials have not been moved, and the heavenly official Xie Qian is still Xie Qian......

As for the household department, the household department is in charge of household registration, land and taxation, but as early as a few years ago, Emperor Jiajing opened the tax department, and the tax department will collect the tax and register it and transfer it to the household department, so as to cut off the opportunity for the household department to embezzle state funds to the greatest extent, which is equivalent to depriving the household department of the largest piece of power in disguise.

Tax collection, accounting, warehousing, expenditure, and records were originally the general responsibility of the various departments of the household department, and without the right to collect taxes, the household department became a custodian department, and its power was naturally greatly limited.

Now the Ministry of Civil Affairs and the Ministry of Finance have been set up in the Ministry of Civil Affairs, and there is nothing unusual about this Ministry of Finance, but it still accounts for the taxes collected, and after accounting, it is put into the treasury and registered, which department needs to use silver, and the Ministry of Finance has the right to approve and distribute, which is basically not much different from the accounting and cashier of later generations.

As for civil affairs...... For the household department, it is an absolute chicken rib, the civil affairs of the Ming Dynasty is simply chaotic to the extreme, there are countless hidden households and hidden fields, and it is almost impossible to sort out these broken things with hidden words in today's Ming Dynasty.

As a cabinet minister, how can he not have a keen political sense, is there a deep meaning for the emperor to suddenly change the household department and set up a separate civil affairs department?

If there is no mistake, it is obvious that the emperor intends to inventory the population and land of the Ming Dynasty, and completely eliminate the hidden households and hidden fields!

If this were to be replaced by any other emperor of the Ming Dynasty, including Taizu Taizong, this would be an almost impossible task, but Emperor Jiajing ......

Who would dare to say impossible!

The cabinet jointly met with the emperor today, in fact, it was not a big deal, that is, it planned to let Emperor Jiajing add cabinet ministers.

The original seven ministers of the cabinet, Yang Tinghe did not return, Liang Chu Zhishi, and Lu Wan were named Zhishi, but in fact, they could be said to be expelled, not to mention that Lu Wan's death by carrying the coffin finally became a farce, and he had no face to continue to stay in the imperial court.

As a result, there are only four cabinet elders left in the cabinet, and four people are enough, of course.

But in officialdom, especially courtiers who don't want to enter the cabinet!

Nowadays, there are not a few officials with enough qualifications in the court, since the cabinet position is vacant, they naturally want to enter, after all, in the Ming Dynasty, the ultimate goal of being an official is to enter the cabinet in addition to the officials of the Ministry of Heaven!

What I didn't expect was that the emperor didn't agree or refuse, but directly changed the ministry and the household department......

"The meaning of the existence of the cabinet is to assist the king in handling the affairs of the world, and according to the permanent system, the cabinet is generally composed of seven people, which is a system set by Emperor Taizong, and I don't think it is inappropriate."

Zhu Houwei paused and said: "However, if there are great changes today, the Ming Dynasty is also changing from agriculture to agriculture and industry, and there are many complicated affairs.

And in my opinion, one person is short, and everyone is long, even if several people are combined, it is inevitable that there will be a possibility of losing power, so I feel that the cabinet really needs to increase the number of members, not a few, but a batch!

But then again, if there are too many cabinet ministers, can it still be called a cabinet? In my opinion, it can't, so in order to show respect for Emperor Taizong's establishment of the cabinet, I feel that there is no need for the cabinet to exist! ”

The four pavilion elders were dumbfounded......

In order to show respect for Taizong, and then the cabinet set up by Taizong was gone?

There is still such a respectful law in this world!

Isn't it contradictory that the emperor said that he would add a large number of cabinet members and abolish the cabinet on the other?

"Your Majesty is planning to change the name of the Cabinet?" Yang Yiqing asked, he felt that eight or nine was not far from ten, because the emperor was addicted to changing the name of the ruling department.

"Sort of." Zhu Houwei smiled lightly: "Abolish the cabinet and change the cabinet to the parliament!"

"Parliament?" The four cabinet elders looked at each other, and they didn't intend to refute it, after all, if they just changed the name of the cabinet to parliament, it didn't seem to be a big deal, they weren't used to it at first, but after a long time, they naturally got used to it.

"As for this council, I plan to set up a speaker, which will be served by Yang Aiqing, the former head of the cabinet, and two to six deputy speakers, which will be served by the original cabinet ministers, and another hundred to five hundred additional members!"

The four cabinet elders are completely stupid, is this the cabinet or the vegetable market!

"Your Majesty......" Yang Yiqing said a little depressed: "Emperor Taizong set up a cabinet, as His Majesty said, is to share government affairs for the king, this is also the original intention of setting up a cabinet, the minister thinks that the cabinet composed of seven ministers is enough to share the worries of His Majesty, but His Majesty is now going to change the cabinet to the parliament, and there are hundreds of additional members, forgive the old minister for being stupid, I don't know what the purpose of adding members is, and what is the original intention of establishing the parliament......"
