The interest class that Chen Xin was going to cultivate was the noble class that no feudal dynasty would ever lack. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Of course, Chen Xin, as a later generation, is accustomed to the concept of equality, and is very tired of those young people in the new era who are bullied by the second generation, so it is naturally impossible to create the kind of aristocratic class that eats and waits for death.

The noble class he wants to cultivate is not those hereditary and corrupt and degenerate classes.

Rather, it is a new form of giving a certain title as an encouragement, reward, and the coexistence of clear rights and clear obligations according to the merits made in the service of the country.

In Chen Xin's thoughts, unless these nobles have made peerless meritorious deeds, they will never be given hereditary treatment, even if they are hereditary, they must be constantly reduced.

Moreover, these nobles did not have the kind of power that was superior to others and above the people.

So, what is the use of setting up this class with little power? Will anyone care about such an empty title?

Chen Xin had long thought that although these "new nobles" did not have the superior power of other feudal countries, they would be given the power to participate in the parliament by Chen Xin.

And this point involves the organization of the parliament envisioned by Chen Xin.

Chen Xin himself has the highest power in the kingdom, such as legislative power, judicial power, and executive power, and there is no need to set up a decentralized body such as a parliament.

However, after a period of work, Chen Xin found that with the wisdom of one person, he really could not fully undertake all the heavy responsibilities of legislative work.

Moreover, in the future, with the increase of the number of state administrative departments, the country will become larger, the population will expand, and there will be more and more public affairs.

If you don't let go of all the power you have been in for many years, it's really easy to get bored with those jobs and become slack.

However, if the power is delegated to the cabinet, and when the influence of the cabinet is extended to all departments and independent units, will there be a situation like the current cabinet of the Ming Chongzhen Dynasty, where all the civil officials deceive the king together?

This situation has to be prevented, half a year ago, didn't the civil official system under Chen Xin also start to empty himself when he thought that Chen Xin and Houjin would lose the confrontation?

Therefore, Chen Xin had a whim, why not set up an organization at the same level as the cabinet under himself, take over part of the work for himself, and at the same time help himself supervise the cabinet, so as not to let them abuse their power and show signs of snatching the monarchy.

The Cabinet exercises executive power, so according to the principle of separation of powers in later generations, this new body should exercise legislative power.

This organization needs to rotate its personnel every few years so that they don't have too much influence.

Thinking about it this way, then the parliamentary system commonly used in later generations naturally appeared in Chen Xin's mind.

However, the parliament to be formed cannot be opened at will, and it cannot be left without standards, and if anyone can enter this body, it will be easy to mix in undesirable elements.

You must know that in the current kingdom, there is not even a single elementary school graduate, and all of them are semi-literate, opening the full name council is looking for death.

After much deliberation, Chen Xin decided to slowly introduce the knighthood system as a barrier to entry for the Parliament.

When a certain amount of merit is made by its nationals, they are awarded different levels of medals, and these medals represent their qualification to obtain knighthood.

After obtaining the qualification, after special training and observation, Chen Youxin personally conferred the title.

These knighthoods will be eligible for parliament.

Chen Xin has not yet thought about the specific situation, which is related to the long-term national policy in the future, so Chen Xin needs to widely solicit the following opinions for reference.

There is no urgency in this matter, and now Chen Xin has not lost interest in government affairs, and he is not very comfortable with decentralization, so everything is still there, and it will take at least a few years to prepare.

And, once you're really ready to do that, the medal system will have to be readjusted.

The original medal system was to be able to mobilize the enthusiasm of the people, so the minimum amount of medals was set a little loosely, which is likely to cause too many people in the noble class and make the title worthless.

Chen Xin, who has not yet made up his mind, is unwilling to release the news of cultivating the noble class to the ministers at this time, but it is also very troublesome if no one confides in him.

In the gazebo in the backyard, when Chen Xin was drinking morning tea, Chen Xin said to the beautiful head maid, "Anya, do you want to tell me if there is a problem with the current medal system?" ”

"Your Excellency is going to readjust the medal system?"

"yes, what do you think?"

"The concubine does not dare to participate in national politics, and the duty of the concubine is to serve the king. If the king wants to find someone to talk to, the concubine will listen to him, and he will never spread it. ”

"Huh." Chen Xin didn't actually want to ask for Anya's opinion, he just wanted to find someone to talk to, and obviously, Anya also saw it.

In this case, in the face of the empathetic maid chief, there is no need for Chen Xin to hide it anymore.

"In fact, the emergence of capitalists is inevitable, whether it is the mixed public economic system that the kingdom will definitely implement in the future, or the private economic system that is now open to the public.

Human beings are strange creatures who can find the right direction in the midst of iron walls.

As long as the market is free, then there will be excellent or unique people who stand out from the market.

However, what can be said about the capitalist class?

Before the development of society reaches a certain stage, that is, before the rise of the new entrepreneurs who assume certain social responsibilities in later generations, the old-fashioned capitalists are definitely the mainstream among the capitalists.

These old-fashioned capitalists are both the potential enemies of me, the feudal ruling monarch, and the potential enemies of the future mixed public ownership system.

Although they have been identified as enemies, they are in some respects also beneficial to the country, and I cannot forbid the emergence of capitalists on the basis of momentary likes and dislikes, as well as some possible harm in the future.

That is not possible under the current conditions of productivity.

Therefore, I want to cultivate a new class of nobles to counterbalance the capitalist power that will surely develop in the future.

In my assumption, this class should be judged by its contribution to society, so the threshold of the current medal system is a bit low.

But if the threshold of the medal system is really raised, it will become the kind of game in the pre-World War II era, specially prepared for the rich class and the officer class. ”

"There is still a long time before the complete rise of capitalist power, and the king is so smart that he will definitely be able to come up with a way."

Chen Xin looked at Anya, who was smiling like a flower, and his mood suddenly relaxed a lot, yes, he still has a lot of time, maybe when his life comes to an end, the capitalist power has not developed to the extent that it needs to be checked and balanced.
