"What? Wenruo, you want to resign from me?"

Early in the morning, when I heard that Xun Yu was asking for a meeting, Liu Xie was a little unhappy and thought that Xun Yu was really not very sensible. As a result, Xun Yu suddenly threw a big thunder at the special without warning.

"Why should I resign? It's a turbulent time in the court. Han Sui, Lu Bu, Sun Ce, and Yuan Shang are still there. There are millions of refugees in the family who need to be appeased. Years of war, people's livelihood is difficult, and there are new salt and iron policies waiting to be implemented. The court even wants to move the capital. If you resign at this time, who can still take on this great task?"

I am still thinking about helping you become a powerful minister and undermining me to implement constitutional monarchy. Why are you so casually giving up?

Where can I find a new powerful minister to replace you?

Of course, it is not all bad for Liu Xie to leave. After all, Xun Yu is so loyal and capable that he can handle everything in an orderly manner.

At least Liu Xie himself unilaterally determined that if Xun Yu had not been working as a tinkerer to repair his various fantasies, perhaps these court officials would have discovered that he was not a ghost or god.

Xun Yu smiled and said, "Today's court is no longer the same as before. The court is full of talents. Even the Shangshutai's Shangshutai's talents are not inferior to me. What is the difference between me and not me?"

Liu Xie frowned and asked, "Then, who can follow the Lord?"

"There are already all the Shangshu in Taichung. The emperor is wise and powerful. Why do you need Shangshu Ling? I suggest that it is better to cancel the position of Shangshu Ling. All matters in the world will be discussed by the Shangshu and His Holiness will make the final arbitration."

"I'll be arbitration? What can I arbitrate? Well... Lingjun, you are the steward of our great man. If you give up the blame, let me come to the steward in person. Isn't this the way for a minister?"

"Your Majesty is busy with everything. If you don't want to attend the meeting in person, you can borrow Beigong, Zhongshutai, and Tax Office to listen and approve."

"Hmm... um?" Liu Xie suddenly felt a little enlightened when he heard this.

Yes, now there are more and more Shangshu on the Shangshutai, and more and more important officials are recording Shangshu's affairs. If there is no leadership of Shangshuling, wouldn't this be a mess?

That must be held meetings at any time.

This Secretariat meeting was held at the meeting of the Tax Cabinet, one in charge of proposals and the other in charge of approval. Isn’t this a bit of the meaning of the House of Lords and the House of Commons?

No, it should be said that one is the government and the other is the parliament. As long as they ignore the matter next, they will let them open whatever they like, it seems that they are one step closer to constitutional monarchy.

Thinking of this, Liu Xie began to draw a complex and huge administrative structure diagram in his mind.

First of all, as the largest salt and iron council and noble meeting held at the beginning of the year, the two can be combined into one, from nobles to fellow villagers and excellent minor officials to discuss the gains, losses, merits and demerits of the court's governance throughout the year.

It mainly plays a role in supervision and proposal for the court, so that the court can fully understand all corners of society when governing, especially the economic situation.

These discussions must be attended by the court throughout the whole process, and the meaningful content will be recorded in court and will be compiled into a book for the court to read repeatedly after the meeting to provide a basis for decision-making.

At the same time, an effective communication mechanism for the implementation of the imperial court incorrectly, especially the central policy to local implementation issues.

The Salt and Iron Conference and the Noble Conference are the tax deliberation meeting of the court. As the decision-making meeting of the court, the tax deliberation meeting must first explain and explain the hot issues mentioned in the Salt and Iron Conference, review the evil political leaders, and hold the Shangshu accountable for the implementation issues.

Afterwards, the Tax Tax Association will review and summarize the fiscal situation for the entire year of last year. What goals have been completed and what goals have not been completed, and what should be held accountable.

Then discuss the financial plan for the new year. This is bound to involve all major issues in the military and political terms. Just make a list for the Shangshutai and let the Shangshutai be responsible for the specific implementation.

In short, the Shangshutai is responsible for the Tax Cabinet, the Tax Cabinet is responsible for the Tax Cabinet, and the Tax Cabinet is responsible for the Salt and Iron Conference. So what about his emperor?

No one is responsible to the emperor.

This is Liu Xie’s plan.

But indeed, in the actual operation of this year, this administrative picture... is really different from what I think.

In Liu Xie's own opinion, this is different mainly because Xun Yu, the Shangshu Ling, or because of political inertia, all officials are more accustomed to the Shangshu Platform in everything.

Xun Yu himself has a high status and great contributions. There are too many people from Yingchuan in the court, so things will inevitably go astray when they are executed.

The simplest point is that even Liu Xie knew that Xun Yu and Yang Biao were no longer very harmonious now, and the two always quarreled at Shangshutai.

In Liu Xie's design, Yang Biao, who was in charge of the tax cabinet, should have much greater power in decision-making than Xun Yu, but he should not be in charge of execution.

So in short, Xun Yu's departure should actually be a very helpful thing for Liu Xie's plan, and it was a good opportunity to start "fine-tuning" the government.

For example, the members of the Tax Conference will be formed and the court will be separated as much as possible. For example, when it comes to the issue of the Salt and Iron Conference, try to leave yourself out of the matter, etc.

No, many of the ministers in the Tax Office and the Shangshutai are repeated. This is not good, so I have to find a way to separate them. Well... The Censorate seems to be good. I will try to increase the authority of the Censor, give them reforms and send them directly to the Tax Office.

And Xun Yue, yes, since Xun Yu resigned from me now, can you find a way to arrange Xun Yue? This Xun Yue is simply a stumbling block on his way to delegate power!

Of course, it is not enough to just pull him off or kick him out, because if he doesn't act as the Zhongshu Order, there will be others who will be the Zhongshu Order. You can't remove all the Zhongshu Order, right?

That would be really inconvenient, and those who know how these ministers would make up for it, so they inexplicably set up a decision-making agency with real power.

So Liu Xie thought about it, and the more he thought about it, the more he flew, and a lot of slutty operations appeared in his mind.

When Xun Yu saw that the emperor was obviously thinking deeply, thinking completely immersed in the world of thought, he was distracted, and was immediately scared to hold his breath, fearing that his breathing would affect the emperor's thoughts because his breathing sound was too loud.

After a while, Liu Xie suddenly asked, "Since Lingjun resigns, what about Zhongyu?"

Xun Yu was stunned for a moment and said, "Zhong Yu is Your Majesty's private minister. How to arrange it will naturally be decided by Your Majesty's words."

"Well, since that's the case, after the new palace is built, I will move the Zhongshutai to the Beigong. I don't plan to use eunuchs in the new palace, so I will let um... what if I let Zhongyu be responsible for my personal affairs?"

As he said that, Liu Xie looked at Xun Yu with great anxiety.

After all, no matter how it looks or is it actually, isn’t it all about Xun Yue doing the eunuch? Even though he can’t be cut off.

To be honest, Liu Xie is ready to turn against Xun Yu on the spot.

However, Xun Yu, who had expected this, had completely different thoughts from Liu Xie, did not think anything was wrong when he heard this, and even sighed: Sure enough, the emperor was waiting for me to resign. Look at my resignation, Zhong Yu immediately made arrangements. In the future, the matter will come to Beigong, and his power will definitely increase further.

So I was naturally very happy and thanked Xun Yue instead.

Liu Xie was moved and cried.

Loyal minister! What kind of loyal minister is this!

Once the prime minister was a dignified prime minister, I asked him to come to Beigong to help me manage my private affairs. There was no difference between it and the eunuch except for the uncut knife. What a great insult, Xun Yu could even laugh.

I also thought about how difficult it was for Xun Yu to be between him and Cao Cao a few years ago. I worked hard to keep the puppet court basic dignity. I also thought that without their brothers, I might still be just a puppet until now. I thought about how I could have today, these brothers made great contributions, well... although this is really not my original intention.

But in short, even if Liu Xie was actually determined to abdicate, he was moved by the two brothers of the Xun family.

A great loyal minister!

I treated them badly!

"Wenruo, before you resign, can you help me draw the last edict as the Secretary of State?"

"Your Majesty, your order."

"Xun Yu has made outstanding achievements since he defended the Shangshu Order. He turned the tide and the collapse of the tide. He supported the generals of the building, recommended the wise and capable, and made all officials perform their duties, manage the government and maintain peace and stability, and ensured that the people live and work in peace and contentment, and fulfilled their duties. He made the army outside without food and grass and only worried about it. He recorded the achievements before and after, and was granted the Marquis of Yingyin County, and added 10,000 households with fiefs."

Xun Yu was also moved to hear this.

As expected, the emperor is going to add my title.

But Xun Yu didn't expect that this title would be added so ruthlessly. What a good guy, this is the one step ahead. There are only a few ten thousand marquises in the Han Dynasty now?

After retirement, he has a fief of ten thousand households. I think he can occupy more important enterprises and hold more shares. More importantly, he can also serve as a member of the noble parliament and put pressure and accountability on the court in a open manner.

As long as Cao Cao doesn’t retire, who can compete with him?

In this way, the Shangshutai is responsible for the Tax Cabinet, the Tax Cabinet is responsible for the noble courts he is in charge of, and Xun Yue's Zhongshutai is in charge of the Beigong to coordinate these administrative yamen. Isn't the world as stable as Mount Tai for thousands of years?

Anyway, the result is that both of them are quite touched. For a moment, the king and his subjects got to know each other and were written into historical books. I guess it is another good story.
Chapter completed!
