Magic Tower Starry Sky

【The starry sky of the magic tower】【】

Lin just wanted to speak, but was interrupted by the empress stretching out her hand. She restrained her original excited look, and asked with a serious expression: "Considering the strategy you proposed before, the price is not that low. I want to ask first, what is the price of this best strategy?"

"Hmm, limit the imperial power? ──" The first "um" is a hesitation with rising tone, and the second tone is affirmative, "──Well, that's right, that's all. Maybe back to you The power in your hands will not be like an emperor with complete power of life and death, but it will also get rid of the current predicament. No one will target you again, and they will turn their attention to other places."

"It seems that there is no such strategy that pays a small price and can get the best ending." Alegria said in a complaining tone.

"Unfortunately, Your Majesty, I am very pragmatic. It is easy to set a goal, but the difficulty is to find a way to the goal. If I can't find that way, I dare not tell the whole story. The so-called beautiful ending…"

Seeing that someone wanted to make a long speech, Alegria interrupted the magician, shook his hand, and said, "Okay, okay, I'm just complaining, there's not so much to say. You should talk , what is your so-called best policy?"

"Simply put in four words, a constitutional monarchy."

Those who speak are very serious, and those who listen are also very serious, but if you don’t understand it, you don’t understand it. So the empress with a relaxed expression said a little discouraged: "It's too simple, let's be more detailed."

"The situation in the Karlsruhe Empire, or in other words, all human and non-human countries in Midi have the same situation, that is, the lack of law. The way of governance and the promotion of affairs all depend on the temporary situation of the lord when he encounters something. Judgment. Unless there are a lot of precedents for this matter, it will become a "convention" to be followed. However, how to explain these conventions, in different people's mouths, will still get different results. So most farmers can only pray , they met a good lord."

"So you want to standardize these things and form a set of laws that apply to everyone?" The empress grasped the point keenly.

Lin replied: "Yes, that's it. Make a set of laws that even the emperor must abide by. And not only the punishment for criminal acts, but also the definition of various rights and obligations, and the division of power. And most importantly, formulate A definite set of rules and fixed organization.

"It's not that I want to criticize. In fact, no matter which country you go to, the ministers who have those positions depend entirely on the mood of the king or emperor. Although the advantage of this is that it is very flexible, it can be determined according to the needs of the environment at that time. Some positions are added or deleted, but those who can be promoted are all crooked.

"It feels like you have to rely entirely on luck to meet a qualified minister in the right position. It's bad, it's miserable, I feel really sad for the lost people."

In the end, it was simply someone's complaint meeting, unscrupulously criticizing this backward system in the world.

"Well, is it really that bad?" As a native of Lost Land, Alegria certainly couldn't understand the problems. After all, the social environment she lives in is like this, she has never seen a better world, only a worse one. In this way, the Karlsruhe Empire can be regarded as a paradise.

Lin continued: "Look, your biggest problem now is the obstruction of government orders. When an order is issued, those ministers may not help you convey it; if it is conveyed, the people below may not necessarily implement it. Governance is based on people and people are connected. Without the key person, the whole system may collapse or get out of control."

"That's true. So you want to find a way that won't let the originally well-functioning structure get out of control because of sudden changes in 'people'." The empress judged.

"Oh, Your Majesty, that's a very accurate statement. The law will not die, but the premise is that we endow this law with authority, and it is difficult to amend it. We will not change one thing in the morning and another in the evening just because of someone's whim. One set. Everyone’s code of conduct, rights and obligations revolve around this set of laws. As long as it is not expressly prohibited, it means that it is not illegal and can do it; as long as it is not a clearly defined scope of rights, it means that it does not have such right."

"But there won't be any legal regulations. It can cover everything. What if there are deficiencies? You have set a requirement that is difficult to modify." The empress questioned.

"It's like the three levels of emperor, nobleman, and common people. We can formulate second-level laws as a supplement to the first-level constitution without violating the principle of the constitution. The second-level laws are not difficult to amend. It is set so high and a little looser, so that the supplementary second-level law can adapt to the current era and the background of the current social environment more quickly."

"Well, your idea sounds pretty good to be honest. But do you think it is feasible? No noble lord is willing to give up the power in his hands. Especially your method is to deprive them of the power to do whatever they want .” The Empress said with a little disappointment.

Lin agreed with the Empress's statement, and added: "That's true. So we have to find an exchange condition that they can hardly refuse and dream of. In exchange, they will agree to and abide by this method."

"How could such a thing happen?" Alegria said with a smile. But her face froze immediately, and she asked tentatively, "Exchange for imperial power?"

Lin cracked his lips and said with a smile, "Yes, that's it."

"Tell me in detail."

Seeing that the empress did not resist, she was aroused instead. Lin proudly said: "The current nobles, the biggest concern should be the governing power. They are strictly guarding against you, Your Majesty, and they just don't want you to surpass them and regain the power that an emperor should have.

"And I have noticed that most of them are much older than you, Your Majesty. That is to say, they should be aware that after their death, everything they have worked so hard for now may be overthrown, and even the family will be liquidated It is also possible. Under this premise, there is no possibility of reconciliation between the two parties, let alone cooperation. It is not impossible to go to extremes."

"So we need to formulate a set of measures with strict laws that have enough credibility, so that they don't have to worry about it. Right?" Alegria asked.

"That's right, Your Majesty, you've got the point." Lin praised.

"any solution?"

"Simply put, the cabinet system. Set up a cabinet centered on the prime minister as the governing body. And set up upper and lower parliaments as the decision-making body." Of course, Lin explained the content of the system.

After the explanation, the empress said with a sense of enlightenment: "It sounds like, apart from one more session, that's what they are doing now. So, when I hand over the power, I also need to give them a legal principle." The basis, so that they can legally possess my original power?"

Lin agreed: "Yes, Your Majesty."

In fact, after Lin Yi arrived in the Karlsruhe Empire, everything he felt felt familiar. Maybe give the empire some more time, and they will find this path by themselves, and everything will fall into place. Now I just pushed it forward, speeding up, and at the same time stuffed some private goods into it.

It's not that someone doesn't want to go straight to another, more advanced doctrine, it's just that this empire doesn't have the soil for that doctrine to grow and thrive. If there is no labor force that is severely exploited by capital, or a society where knowledge and morality are above a certain standard, using that set of utopianism, instead of killing others, others will kill themselves.

"Doing this, what good will it do me? Give up my power for nothing, and fulfill those greedy villains?" the empress said dissatisfied.

Sure enough, back to this issue. The thief Lin said with a smile: "Your Majesty really thinks that the group of greedy villains you mentioned are the ultimate beneficiaries?"

"Isn't it?" Alegria said disdainfully.

"If you want me to say that the common people in the lower council are the group that will ultimately benefit the most. And the nobles will be wiped out by them sooner or later; or at least deprived of their privileges and become vain nobles."

Alegria asked curiously, "Why?"

"The upper council is composed of nobles, and members of the upper council form a cabinet. But the power of the members of the upper council comes from the population in their territory. Based on this population, a certain number of civilian representatives are selected to enter the lower council .As for the lower parliament, in addition to voting for the prime minister, it also shoulders the responsibility of enacting laws related to civilians. After all, they were born as civilians, so of course they know what they need."

Alegria also shared her thoughts. "Yes, as you said before, civilian representatives can also be selected for the royal territory to enter the lower parliament. With such an action, the emperor's influence on political affairs will be restored again. If the number of representatives is determined according to the number of people, I can The power of control is very weak. In the eyes of others ~www.wuxiamtl.com~, except for the use of wooing to make up the number, it can't dominate anything at all."

"Yeah, that's very good. But has your Majesty ever thought about it, can you really completely control these people who come out of your direct territory? Can that group of nobles do such a thing? Those who are on the edge of power A group of people, don't they want to grab more?"

After serious thinking, the empress came to a conclusion. "how is this possible."

"Just imagine, the nobles are hereditary. Even if there is a virtuous son inheritance system, the most basic thing is to have a blood relationship. However, the civilian representatives in the lower parliament are not hereditary. Without strength and real ability, how can they represent others? .Then the question is, is there any nobleman who can guarantee that his descendants will be talents from generation to generation? Real empires, extinct titles and emerging nobles are constantly being produced. They can really resist all the time, A lower council with merit-based entry? It’s as if you’re trying to resist those nobles who have meddled with imperial power?”

After thinking about it carefully, Alegria suddenly realized something. She said in astonishment: "This is your real purpose, to destroy the entire noble class! Aren't you afraid that this matter will be discovered?"

"There are many short-sighted and short-sighted people in this world. Even smart people are so conceited that they think they can control everything. Anyway, there is no immediate harm. Why not take the power legally handed over by the emperor? However, many people don't know , or they know but don't want to believe that there is a general trend in the world, and the general trend is irresistible. So what if they are discovered?" Lin smiled happily.
