"Our Cabinet Government is elected by the House of Commons, approved by the House of Lords, and appointed by me for a term of three years. Theoretically, each cabinet official can serve a maximum of two consecutive terms and a maximum of five terms. The Cabinet Government has executive power and is accountable to me. The army of our country, with the exception of the Guards, is placed under the control of the Ministry of Defense. On these foundations, I, as the ruler of the country, have supreme rights, including supreme military power. If the Cabinet government does nothing, I can dissolve the Cabinet government and ask for a new election to the House of Commons. What do you think? Arthur smiled and spoke, but the words he said made several prime ministers feel cold.

The idea of the prime ministers was simple: to build a federal state based on their original colonial rights.

Even if Arthur would take away some of the power, they would be able to rely on their original colonial base to become the top of the new principality.

But according to Arthur's plan, they will have to compete with all Australians except for the advantage of their original governing experience and position.

In other words, they will be stripped of all their privileges, and if they want to enter the upper echelons of Australia, they can only rely on their own ability and prestige in the hearts of Australians.

"Your Highness, is the right of our national monarch too high, according to your proposal? Of course, I'm not doubting your abilities. But when the next ruler, or the next ruler, once there is a monarch with relatively mediocre ability, our country is also very likely to fall into a trough. Prime Minister Evan said tentatively.

It is now clear that Arthur wants to create a full-time principality with a dual monarchy, but the prime ministers want an autonomous federal commonwealth, two completely opposite concepts.

"This is not something we should be thinking about now, and besides, if the monarch is not able to do so in the future, he can also hand over his power to the House of Lords to exercise it. I believe that with the help of the House of Lords, the country will not be plunged into a crisis. Arthur said with a smile, directly dismissing Prime Minister Evan's temptation.

The country's political system and its own rights are Arthur's bottom line, Australia is Arthur's biggest foundation now and in the future, Arthur will never allow anyone to dare to threaten his position.

What's more, now is the easiest time for Australia to establish a high monarchy, and if Arthur retreats now, it will not be easy to improve the monarchy in the future.

Seeing that Arthur was so resolute, several prime ministers had no good way for a while, so they could only remain silent, frowning secretly and thinking of countermeasures.

"Finally, it's about the change in the states. The largest administrative region in Australia is the state, and we will have a total of six states, which is the existing six colonies. The governorship is very important for both the states and the government. Therefore, the choice of governors in each state must be cautious. Governors are elected by the state houses and are approved by the House of Lords before taking office. Each governor serves a four-year term and is allowed to serve four consecutive terms in principle, up to a maximum of six terms. The Governor has executive power within the state and is accountable to the House of Lords and to me. The judicial power of the states has been withdrawn, and the judicial system has adopted the uniform rules of the country. In this way, the isolation between the former colonies can be quickly eliminated, and cultural and economic exchanges between the states can be quickly promoted. Arthur said with a smile, but what he said was like a bombshell, blowing up in the hearts of the six prime ministers.

If Arthur's appointment of a temporary cabinet member made them feel Arthur's concession, now the rules for the new states are like a sharp weapon in their chests.

According to Arthur, henceforth the states would have only executive power, and would be accountable to the House of Lords and Arthur. Although he can be re-elected for four consecutive terms, if he does not have much merit, I am afraid that it will be difficult to keep the position of governor.

This also means that if the six prime ministers want to fight for the top of Australia, they will have to find a way to attack the position of the House of Lords and the new cabinet government.

But neither institution was so easy to get into, and more importantly, it had to be supported by Arthur.

In this way, all their back roads have been cut off by Arthur, and if they want to stay in Australia's top management, they can only gain Arthur's trust while showing their abilities.

It was not that the prime ministers did not think about resisting, but in the face of Queen Victoria's presence and the presence of the fleet outside the port, they wisely abandoned the idea.

After several prime ministers chose to accept their fate, the progress of the meeting became very fast.

After Arthur and the prime ministers briefly defined the structure of government, the powers of the various institutions, and the reform of the states, the conference was officially closed.

Over the next few days, Arthur accompanied Queen Victoria around the streets of Sydney and reviewed the Australian army, which had become a unit.

After a few days of recuperation, Queen Victoria's face finally improved and she began to smile from time to time.

Over the course of a few days, several prime ministers, also members of the interim cabinet, began to reform their colonies.

All the inhabitants of the colony also received the news of the colony's reform into a state, and for a moment there was a lot of discussion about Arthur's merits.

Yes, Australians have been dreaming of the colonies uniting together to form a whole country for a long time, and although it is not the expected democratic republic, Arthur has also officially announced that he will form a House of Commons and give Australians their due rights.

Under such circumstances, how could Australians not be grateful to Arthur, the ruler who allowed them to trade and walk freely throughout Australia?

Sydney, 7 May 1900.

At this time, a full ten days had passed since Arthur arrived in Australia. In the space of 10 days, Australia has ushered in a sea change.

The progress of the colony to a state became very fast because it was popular with all Australians.

In just over a week, the original border lines and outposts in the states have all been abolished and turned into state borders and patrol posts.

The inhabitants of the various colonies began to refer to themselves as state dwellers, and began to travel and roam freely in other states.

The formation of the House of Commons is also in sight, and state governments have begun to notify all residents of the upcoming elections to the House of Commons and to search for a place to be stationed in the capital.

But at the same time, there is also bad news for Arthur, and that is that Queen Victoria is about to leave.
