The Reborn Lady is Farming

Chapter 1262: Short guard (medium)

   Mu Yangling rushed back to the capital that afternoon, which surprised the officials who were staring at Prince Rong's mansion, and could not help but feel guilty.

   They just bullied the younger ones, and the older ones came back, don't they come back to protect the younger ones?

   With this doubt, these astute courtiers reported honestly at the court meeting the next day, and no longer had to ask Qi Wenjin's opinion on everything like yesterday.

   This disappointed Little Bear, who had been waiting for a long time. Last night, he was so excited that he didn't sleep all night, but no one asked him.

   Little Bear lowered his head, and the ministers who were paying attention to him were even more relieved when they saw him.

   But not everyone has this insight. Some officials have long been uncomfortable with the arrogance and domineering of Prince Rong's family.

   The matter that everyone made things difficult for Qi Wenjin yesterday was still deeply imprinted in their minds, so they thought that Prince Rong's mansion had committed public anger, and naturally they had to work hard today.

So when Xiaoxiong was drooping his head in disappointment, a censor standing in the middle and rear stepped out solemnly: "Your Majesty, the statement that the prime minister's power is too great to lead to troubled times was put forward by Princess Rong, and the prince Rong was raised by the princess. Da, you should have the clearest understanding on this point, what is your opinion on this?"

  The courtroom suddenly fell silent.

   The previous adults were really discussing whether or not to weaken the Prime Minister's power, and how to weaken it. At this time, it was appropriate for the censor to suddenly stand up and raise this issue, but anyone with eyes could see that his question was aimed at Little Bear.

   Seeing this young censor bowing his head proudly in the middle of the hall, everyone could not help showing sympathy for him, only the censor glared at him.

   Little Bear's eyes lit up, waiting for this question.

   Xiaoxiong gave a serious cough, and tried his best to come out with a small face: "Back to the emperor, Wei Chen thinks that the power of the prime minister should be cut down!"

   Yan Du's eyes sank, while Rong Xuan looked at him with a smile to show his encouragement.

Qi Xiuyuan gave an "oh" with interest and asked enthusiastically, "Then what method do you think should be cut? The prime minister is the head of the hundred officials, and the left and right prime ministers have their own powers. Who should be responsible for the cut off?"

  Yeah, that's why everyone is arguing.

  You have weakened the Prime Minister's power, which means that he can manage less things, and who will manage the responsibilities that have been cut out?

   The powers and responsibilities of the hundreds of officials below have already been assigned. If they were handed over to them, the entire official system would have to be changed.

   Xiaoxiong couldn't think of this before, but yesterday Xiaobao chased him out and told him about it, and his mother came back and taught him again. At this time, Xiaoxiong couldn't understand it any more.

  He raised his head triumphantly and said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, the prime minister's powers and responsibilities remain unchanged, we just need to increase the number of prime ministers."

The   chaotang was quiet again, and then said loudly: "Increase the number of prime ministers? Is it possible to add a middle phase between the left and right phase?"

   This is blatant mockery.

  Qi Xiuyuan coughed lightly, thinking that if the number of people increased, it would be a problem what to call it.

As if he didn't hear their sarcasm, Xiao Xiong continued as his mother said: "You can set up a cabinet, with four adults as the cabinet ministers, who are in charge of the six ministries, and military affairs must be decided by several cabinet ministers together. The rights and responsibilities have not changed, but they have changed from two to four, and the rights each has naturally become smaller."

   Qi Xiuyuan pondered. After A Ling's article came out, there was a lot of noise in the hall, but he never expressed his displeasure with her. One of the reasons was that she spoke to his mind.

  The prime minister is in charge of all officials, and his power is indeed great. He wants to weaken it, but because he has no clue, he is slow to act, because he is afraid that if he acts rashly, people will die.

   Of course, it is impossible for him to die in his position.

   But for now, he is quite satisfied with his left and right sides, not to mention Rong Xuan is still his good brother, he doesn't want to engage in political struggles at this time to destroy him.

   But at this time, he felt that the suggestion put forward by Xiaoxiong was very feasible. Why didn't he think of it before?

  The ministers also looked at the bear in a complicated way. Why didn't they think of such a good idea before?

  The powers and responsibilities of the prime minister remain unchanged, from two to four. Does that mean that there is a greater chance of worshipping the prime minister?

  Although they only have half of the power of the original prime minister, their chances have increased, okay? What if they are happy about this?

  Qi Xiuyuan asked, "Then tell me in detail how this cabinet should operate. Should the four cabinet ministers only be in charge of the powers and responsibilities of the prime minister, or do they still hold other official positions?"

  Xiao Xiong blinked, mother didn't seem to mention this yesterday.

  Xiaoxiong said confidently: "Your Majesty, the specific matters should be decided by you and the adults. The minister is still young, and although he is quick-witted, he has relatively little experience, and it is not enough to conclude this matter."

   Yan Du said lightly: "Since the prince made this suggestion, he should have thought about how to do it. Everything has an origin, you don't just think about this, right?"

   Everyone also looked at him suspiciously, yes, the people present were much more experienced and talented than him, why did he think of something that no one thought of?

   Little Bear smiled and said, "Naturally more than that."

   He raised his head solemnly and said to the crowd: "Your Majesty, the small minister thinks that not only the prime minister's powers and responsibilities need to be restrained and shared, but also other official positions."

"There is a saying among the people, 'The county magistrate who destroys the family, destroys the family governor'. Is this the case for all the county magistrates and governors?" Xiaoxiong said solemnly: "Of course not! There are also tyrants. We can’t just teach them with morality, and we shouldn’t wait until after the event to verify and deal with it strictly, or we don’t have the opportunity to verify at all. The minister thought that only if we knew about the incident before or when it happened, we would have the opportunity to stop it. Only by saving people and preventing people from destroying their homes due to violent officials is a good official system."

   Qi Xiu said from afar: "The Censor Station monitors hundreds of officials, and there are also Censors in various places. Do you want to increase the number of officials? That will inevitably lead to redundant work, but it will cost the people and money."

   "So the small minister suggested that it is better to let the people supervise."

   Qi Xiuyuan's eyebrows twitched, and there was an ominous premonition in his heart.

Sure enough, Xiaoxiong continued to say with great interest: "The county magistrates and governors are all parents and officials. They are good or bad. In the past, the common people may not be able to judge because of the lack of information, but now the Times has been sold all over Daqi, and the court's law It is not difficult for the common people to know the policy, but it will be difficult for them to use the court’s laws to save money and bend the law. The censor may have neglected, but the common people will never neglect it, because it is related to their own interests.”

Before Qi Xiuyuan could speak, Yan Du asked, "How do you plan to get the people to monitor the officials?"
