Datang: Li Shimin begged me to rebel

"You bastard!" Li Shimin angrily stood up from his seat.

Changlin observes the nose with the eyes and the heart with the nose.

"He picked up everyone?" Li Shimin looked at Chang Lin and asked.

"Yes, Her Royal Highness, the Fourth Concubine, Princess Yuzhang and other princesses, and His Royal Highness have all gone to Qinwangzhuang." Chang Lin said silently.

Li Shimin is even more angry!You bastard, you did it on purpose, didn't you?You prepared a lot of work for me, but you ended up emptying out my harem?Then who will I chat and play cards with when I'm done working?

The point is, you didn't call me over?

"Didn't he just come back? Why didn't he come to the palace to pay his respects?" Li Shimin asked viciously.

"I heard from the guards who came to pick up His Highness the Queen that it seems that His Highness King Qin is sick, and he feels very uncomfortable after returning to Qinwangzhuang." Chang Lin said.

"Huh?" Li Shimin was stunned for a moment, and then said: "He didn't say anything before, and when he saw him this morning, he didn't seem to see any problems."

"His Royal Highness Qin Wang has always been strong. It is not uncommon for you to know his character and temper since childhood. If you feel cold, you will definitely not tell His Majesty. After all, the journey is far away. I heard that His Highness even detoured in Youzhou, Bohai Sea, to talk to General Li Shiji. As for the next strategy, counting the journey back to the city from Persia, at least two months of traveling on the sea, it is normal for the body to be tired." Chang Lin said in a low voice.

"Hey, forget it, forget it, make it difficult for him, who made me incompetent." Li Shimin sighed and waved his hands helplessly.

Chang Lin: "..."

What you said, Your Highness, is embarrassing. You said how should I answer this.

"Hey, Chang Lin, do you think I'm getting old? I always feel powerless, especially when Datang is getting bigger and bigger. I feel more and more powerless. I don't seem to have much ability anymore. I think I need a qualified successor." Li Shimin said with emotion.

Chang Lin: "..." Are you sure you mean it?And my lord, you are only 38 years old this year, isn't it too early to say you are old?This is the time when you are young and strong.

Living Lang: "..." He didn't know whether this should be recorded or not. To be honest, he and Chang Lin knew everything. After all, it was impossible for Li Shimin to hide some things from them, and Li Shimin was not going to hide it. A lot of things or a lot of secrets, if one person knows it, it will cause a nervous breakdown, but if many people actually know it, then it's not a big problem.

What's more, Lao Li didn't want to cover up at all.

"I don't think His Highness is ready yet. I'm afraid you have to persist for a few more years. After all, Datang cannot do without you." What else could Chang Lin say, he could only follow Li Shimin's words.

"Hey, Li Ke has come back. It just so happens that this year I am going to give these court officials, princes, princesses, etc. a new imperial seal. This is the last time I will seal them as an emperor. Follow-up words, according to Li Ke According to Ke, these titles and the like may not be given away so easily." Li Shimin sighed.

"It's the last benefit for these old guys."

Chang Lin was a little speechless, he really wanted to say, My Majesty, you are really still young, what you said is as if you are already old.

"Just follow what I told you before and prepare to draft an imperial edict." Li Shimin confessed.

"Yes!" Chang Lin said silently. Li Shimin had already thought about the imperial conferment. It can be said that most of the court officials have a share. It is estimated that their titles will be changed soon. This imperial seal should have been announced at the Yuanzheng Dachao Meeting, and it can be regarded as a good start for the new year.

But His Royal Highness King Qin was not here, so His Majesty postponed this matter, and now he will wait until His Highness King Qin returns.

"That's it. By the way, bring me the memorial. In addition, you send someone to send an edict to Li Ke, let him think about the reform of the imperial court system in his spare time, and then write me a memorial, or what does he have? Just do what you think, now he keeps proposing this and that, unsealing the Ministry of Civil Affairs and this, it’s too messy, why don’t you just say what he thinks.”

"Yes!"

……

Naturally, it is impossible for Li Ke not to invite Li Shimin, the main reason is that his father is here, and if a lot of memorials come with him...then it is a question whether the father is here to rest or he is resting.

So, as a person who strictly abides by the fetters of fatherly kindness and filial piety, of course Li Ke couldn't invite his father to come. He just came back... His father wouldn't beat himself up, right?

Anyway, he was going all out, Li Shimin would definitely not be able to beat him at this time, what is he frantically probing on the verge of death, don't talk nonsense, this is not what I, Li Ke, did.

Everyone who should be invited has been invited. This time, Li Ke even invited the fourth concubine. As for the lower-level concubines, Li Ke didn't invite them. It can't be that the old man really doesn't have a bed warmer.

wrong!I have to ask my father for a reward. Really, why doesn't my father understand my heart at all?When my mother and mother are in the harem, father, would you mind going to those new concubines?

I am creating an opportunity for you, Dad!I don't understand this.

Hmph, besides, it's not that I haven't done anything, but I'm thinking about things seriously, okay?Li Ke put a piece of paper from his study into it.

Here are some of the reforms he wrote about the imperial court.

In fact, politics has hardly changed in human society after thousands of years.

More than 1000 years later, the separation of powers boasted by the West seems so awesome. In fact, think about the ancient system of three provinces and six departments. The three provinces are the feudal society's version of the separation of powers.This thing is left over from the old ancestors, the separation of powers under the royal family's absolute rule!

The separation of powers in the West, which advocates freedom, puts aside the phenomenon and looks at the essence. I really think that the separation of powers is for the so-called freedom and democracy.Hehe, how naive, that is to prevent capital from being killed by power, so the separation of powers was created. In this way, capital can control part of it anyway, and it is impossible to let some people with other ambitions (considering the people) After taking power, wipe them all out.

Therefore, it is quite appropriate to expand the system of three provinces and six ministries. However, Li Ke is still considering the rights settings and the like. Of course, he has to set up a little bit if it suits the national conditions.

But the six ministries are definitely not enough. The functions of the six ministries are too complicated. Take the Ministry of Civil Affairs as an example. It controls the national territory, fields, household registration, taxes, salaries, and other information related to finance.Among these things, with Li Ke's current progress, the urgency of many things is about the same. What do you ask the Ministry of Civil Affairs to do first?

Now, a new split of these departments is inevitable, and the six departments are no longer in line with the current national conditions of the Tang Dynasty.
