Thank you for the reward from the False Silent Son!

Cao Cao followed the prestige, and saw Diao Chan walking over with a steaming food plate, with an intoxicating smile on his face. Needless to say, the light cough just now must have come from Diao Chan.

Diao Chan knelt down in front of Cao Cao, put down the food plate in his hand, and smiled gently, "Your Majesty, you have slept for more than two hours, and you are hungry when you want to come!" ”

Cao Cao couldn't help but feel warm in his heart, and gently hugged Diao Chan and kissed it.

Cao Cao was eating and praising again and again, and Diao Chan and Cai Yan sat aside and watched with interest.

Diao Chan suddenly showed a distressed look, and couldn't help but say softly: "Your Majesty, you are so tired!" ”

Cao Cao put down the dishes and chopsticks, sighed, and said with emotion: "I thought that being the emperor was a very happy and enviable thing, but when I really stood in the position of the Ninety-Five, I found that the burden on my body was as heavy as Mount Tai!" Hey, sometimes I just feel out of breath! Being an emperor is not enjoying, but repaying debts, repaying the debts owed to the people of the world! ”

Diao Chan couldn't help but say a little ashamedly: "Cicada is useless, you can't help Your Majesty!" ”

Cai Yan on the side also looked depressed.

Cao Cao hugged these two delicate wives who were like interpreting flowers into his arms, and said softly: "Do you know? The greatest blessing in my life is to have you! ”

"Your Majesty!" The two wives couldn't help but snuggle into Cao Cao's arms emotionally.

That night, Cao Cao spent the night in Diao Chan's dormitory, and Cai Yan did not go back.

The next morning, Cao Cao extricated himself from the entanglement of his pink-legged jade arms with great perseverance and ascended to the Fengtian Hall of the early dynasty in high spirits.

After the court meeting dispersed, Cao Cao, Xun Yu and Xi Zhicai came to the Qianqing Palace together.

Cao Cao said to the two: "I am ready to set up on the six ministries, cancel the three-province system, and establish a cabinet system!" ”

The rudiments of the cabinet system appeared a long time ago. The development has come naturally to this point, and the reason why it did not appear is entirely because the ministers did not dare to ask for this right like Cao Cao, who was the founding monarch of the country!

If it had been replaced by the emperor who had taken over, the cabinet would have already appeared!

There are good and bad aspects of the cabinet system, and as long as the cabinet is running normally, then the emperor will not be in chaos if he does not calculate the world. It's like the Ming Dynasty, if you don't go to court for decades, the country will still be fine, if you change the dynasty, you would have changed the dynasty a long time ago!

The bad side is that the king is easy to be overthrown, but this can be effectively suppressed for the Great Wei, which is separated from the military and the government and the military power is completely controlled by the emperor, and it is precisely because of this. Cao Cao decided to set up a cabinet.

Comparing the cabinet system and the development has been completed, the reason why it has not come out yet is just because of the suppression of his founding king, if it is developed in the hands of the successor emperor, then it will not be controlled by Cao Cao at that time!

"Your Majesty, why did you set up a cabinet?"

Xi Zhicai frowned, and he couldn't understand why Cao Cao canceled the three provinces and added a new cabinet, it was not that Xi Zhicai was greedy for power. Instead, he thinks that such a change can easily cause chaos in the court. And chaos in the court can easily cause chaos in the world!

Cao Cao sighed, "I have limited energy after all, and it is difficult to deal with everything thoroughly!" Therefore, I want to set up a cabinet, and the so-called cabinet is to help me deal with government affairs, compared to the original three provinces, the cabinet has increased to six people. Among them, there is one cabinet chief assistant, two cabinet assistants, and the rest are called group assistants, and I have a preliminary idea! ”

Glancing at the two of them, Cao Cao paced with his hands behind his back. Zhengse said: "I am thinking, if Han Wu is such a wise king, he will still commit witch Gu mistakes in his old age, I ask myself if I am not more virtuous than Han Wu, it is difficult to guarantee that I will not do similar things in the future!" ”

Xi Zhicai and Xun Yu exchanged a look, both of them were surprised, and then showed admiration.

Cao Cao paused and continued: "The cabinet has the vast majority of the power to deal with the affairs of the six ministries, and in major cases, such as the Ministry of Industry will carry out a major project such as building a seawall, it will be handled by the cabinet and finally submitted to me for review!" And if I have any major decisions, they must first go through the cabinet of ministers! ”

Cao Cao thought for a moment, "That's roughly the case, what do you think?" ”

Absolute power brings absolute corruption, and if a dynasty can last for a long time, then the checks and balances of power cannot be avoided!

The two pondered solemnly for a moment, and then Xi Zhicai said: "Your Majesty's move can be described as a heavy and light on the king, but I am afraid of ······"

"Zhicai doesn't have to worry about anything, just say it!"

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the benefits of balancing power are obvious, Your Majesty can correct the mistakes of the Cabinet, and at the same time, the Cabinet can prevent possible mistakes of Your Majesty! It's just that there are many interests involved, and this kind of system is afraid that it will not be sustainable, and the cabinet ministers are like sitting on a volcano! ”

Cao Cao was stunned for a moment, "Why did Zhicai say this!" ”

"Your Majesty, do you think, if Your Majesty wants to abolish this system, can this system still exist?"

Cao Cao understood what Xi Zhicai meant, "What is Zhicai's opinion?" ”

Cao Cao asked hopefully, but Xi Zhicai shook his head, "Weichen is not talented, and he can't think of a solution!"

Cao Cao frowned, looked at Xun Yu with an inquiring gaze, and Xun Yu also shook his head and said, "Weichen can't think of a good way!" ”

Cao Cao didn't blame them, because Cao Cao's idea was somewhat out of touch with the current reality.

After thinking about it for a long time, he couldn't think of a solution, and finally Cao Cao simply didn't want to, "It's hard to last, it's hard to last!" At least one day before I can do it! ”

Xi Zhicai and Xun Yu didn't know what to say.

Cao Cao sat down, summoned the edict, and then ordered the edict to draft several holy decrees.

Cao Cao carefully reviewed each draft decree and stamped it with a large seal, and also stamped Cao Cao's private seal, which shows how much Cao Cao attached importance to this matter.

At this moment, Xun Yu and Xi Zhicai looked at each other dumbfounded, because these holy decrees were not only what Cao Cao discussed with him just now, one of the holy decrees actually gave the cabinet the power to review the succession of the prince, and the other holy decree was for the successor, to the effect that if the successor monarch dared to change this iron law, everyone in the world would be punished.

Cao Cao believed that with the deterrent power of his founding king, it should be able to play some role.

At this time, Cao Cao did not expect that the impact of his holy decrees on future generations would be huge.

Cao Cao carefully reviewed a few holy decrees on the side, and said to the two people who were still staying: "These three holy decrees will be hung in the lobby of the cabinet from now on, and in addition, the transcript will be circulated all over the world!" ”

The two who came back to their senses hurriedly knelt down, not knowing what to say, and all kinds of thoughts were mixed in their hearts.

Cao Cao solemnly said to the two: "Remember, from now on, it is the interests of the entire Great Wei that should be considered, not the interests of my Cao family!"

The two of them couldn't help but feel shocked, they were on the ground, they didn't make a sound, and neither of them knew what to say.

The two of them came out of the Qianqing Palace with three holy decrees in their hands, and they couldn't help but feel a heavy burden like Mount Tai on their shoulders.

"I can't imagine that Your Majesty's mind has reached such a realm, it is really like the universe!" Xun Yu was rarely excited.

Xi Zhicai nodded, "It seems that Your Majesty has made up your mind!" If this policy can really be implemented throughout, I am afraid that the Great Wei Empire will really be able to pass it on for thousands of years! ”

"Zhicai, do you think Your Majesty will change his original intention?

"No, I'm just worried about the successor! Doesn't one of Your Majesty's decrees also show that Your Majesty is also worried about it? ”

Xun Yu frowned and nodded. Then he smiled and said, "Don't think too much!" In this life, as long as we do our best, we will be worthy of our ancestors and descendants, so why bother thinking about things that we can't control! ”

Xi Zhicai laughed, "What Wen Ruo said is extremely true! Let's go, go home! ”

The next day, Cao Cao convened the ministers, announced the establishment of the cabinet and the cancellation of the three provinces, and immediately announced that Xun Yu was crowned as the first assistant of the cabinet, Xi Zhicai and Chen Gong were the second assistants of the cabinet, and Xun You, Jia Xu, and Guo Jia were the cabinet assistants!

The Cheng Yu is the secretary of the criminal department, Zhong Xuan is the secretary of the ministry, and Zhou Yu is the secretary of the military department, with the help of Cao Cao's iron fist and the six books, the former prime ministers of the three provinces, the establishment of the cabinet and the change of the six books did not cause any waves, which made Cao Cao very emotional, with so many talents in the world, no matter what they do, it seems very convenient!
