"Imperial Physician, quickly let my beloved minister take a look. Why is she vomiting blood just like that? He must have worked too hard for the country. I thought that since Minister Zhang was ill, he might as well retire and go home to rest!”Jiang Chen said with concern.
How was this concern? This was clearly an attempt to kick Zhang Zheng out of the royal court!
Zhang Zheng lost his position as the chief assistant of the cabinet, leaving only the official position of Grand Tutor. Even though he was a First Rank official, he did not have any real power!
He was already very aggrieved, but Jiang Chen wanted him to retire and completely leave the central government!
Zhang Zheng almost spat out another mouthful of blood, but he held it in. No matter how uncomfortable he was, he still had to smile in front of Jiang Chen."Your Majesty…just a word of concern from you, and I actually feel fine. My body is extremely comfortable. Your Majesty is really a true dragon that has descended to the mortal world.”
Jiang Chen couldn't help but sneer in his heart. Zhang Zheng's reaction was pretty fast.
However, Jiang Chen didn't care. Zhang Zheng was only left with an empty position and couldn't cause any waves!
The civil and military officials were still in shock. Even though Jiang Chen's prestige was over, everyone in the hall still didn't dare to breathe loudly!
Jiang Chen went to court for the first time. Not only did he kill Wei Guoquan in public, but he also suppressed Zhang Zheng and dismissed the cabinet!
It could be said that he had used thunderous methods to intimidate all the officials in the court and achieved his goal!
At this moment, no one in the imperial court dared to treat him as a puppet emperor. He had already become a true emperor, a young emperor!
At this moment, Jiang Chen was considering setting up an organization comparable to the cabinet!
After all, Prime Minister, the existence of the cabinet was still necessary. He couldn't let Jiang Chen do everything himself!
Wouldn't Jiang Chen be exhausted?
However, what Jiang Chen needed to pay attention to was how to separate the power to avoid a situation where the prime minister and the cabinet were dominant!
Jiang Chen thought about it and finally decided to replace the cabinet with three provinces and six departments!
The three provinces were the Ministry of Central Affairs, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs!
The powers of the three departments were completely different!
The Ministry of Central Affairs was the decision-making department and held the power of administration!
As the Ministry of Rites, they discussed state affairs with the Ministry of Central Affairs, reviewed imperial edicts, and signed the Zhou chapter!
The Ministry of History would manage the six departments, separating the Ministry of Personnel, the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Justice, the Ministry of Revenue, the Ministry of Works, and so on.
In this way, the division of labor in each department was clear, and they were not in the same body. The power would not be concentrated in one person or one department. The three provinces and six departments would be jointly in charge and check each other. It would be difficult for chaos to occur!
Although the cabinet system could strengthen the imperial power, it was not beneficial to Jiang Chen. He not only wanted to strengthen the imperial power, but also stability!
Moreover, the final decision of the three provinces and six departments was still in Jiang Chen's hands. He still held the most important imperial power and stood at the top!
Therefore, Jiang Chen did not hesitate and immediately issued an order!
Liu Zhuo raised his voice and shouted,"By the will of heaven, the Emperor says: Abolish the cabinet system and establish a system of three provinces and six ministries. Liu Yuan will temporarily take on the position of Secretary of State, and Li Yuanchang will take on the position of minister…"
Soon, under Jiang Chen's order, the prototype of the three provinces and six departments was formed!
Jiang Chen temporarily handed the positions of the three provinces to Liu Yuan and other ministers who were more loyal and less ambitious!
In this regard, the civil and military officials had no objections. Everyone knew that after Jiang Chen ousted the cabinet, he would rebuild the mechanism according to his own ideas.
However, no one expected Jiang Chen to re-establish the mechanism so quickly and distribute the power in a more detailed manner. It was a bit surprising!
Originally, some powerful ministers were prepared to see Jiang Chen make a fool of himself!
After all, the cabinet had been deposed, and the central government was vacant. A reasonable system and organization had to be filled in to maintain the normal operation of the central government.
Otherwise, the entire country would be in chaos!
In their view, Jiang Chen might have some means, might be overbearing, or might be very calculative, but he was still young and had never been involved in politics. It was impossible to quickly develop a perfect central system.
However, what everyone didn't expect was that Jiang Chen not only did it, but he also completely dispersed his power and strengthened his imperial power, perfectly demonstrating his ability!
At this moment, the powerful ministers were speechless.
As for Liu Yuan and the other loyal members, they were trembling with excitement. They looked at Jiang Chen with admiration and awe!
In their eyes, the young emperor's power had already been established, and the sleeping true dragon had already awakened. If he was still so young, given enough time, he would definitely grow to an extremely terrifying level!
In fact, the ministers saw the light of the country's future in Jiang Chen. They believed that the country was likely to embark on glory and reach the peak under the leadership of the young emperor. It would open up a world of peace and create a historical undertaking!
