After the union of all regions of the Empire, an atmosphere of prosperity spread across all areas, peace returned to Great Dazhou. Today in Shenzhou City. A group of powerful capitalist traders from Dongzhou entered the capital. They go to the Governnt House to report to the Cabinet and the Emperor.
"On behalf of the head of governnt I, General Guo Ling, welco all of you." General Guo Ling welcos capitalists from Dongzhou.
That evening, a reception was held at the Royal Palace. A group of entrepreneurs from Dongzhou quickly adapted to a new environnt. The capital of Shenzhou was so prosperous that they were unthinkable. They were like a barbarian when they first arrived in Shenzhou.
Every entrepreneur quickly fell in love with Shenzhou city. Comfort, many anities make them want to stay here forever.
Zhao Lingxin ordered the cabinet to hold a new governnt eting to discuss a third condition the capitalists from Dongzhou had previously submitted. On the political power for them.
"We need to and so of the imperial constitutions to enable the establishnt of a parliant," Pri Minister General Guo Ling told the eting.
General Guo Ling was one of the people who drafted the constitution when the Empire was founded. They intended the Empire to beco like a western country. So the establishnt of a parliant was one of the things they had in mind, and the Empire had pre-built the parliant building. But when the Empire was founded, there were so limitations not ready yet. Causing the constitution does not have provisions on this matter.
"Then we voted to and the constitution," Zhao Lingxin said. The legislative power is now in the Cabinet, chaired by the Emperor. The ministers quickly raised their hands in favor of a resolution to and the constitution.
"When everyone agrees. Let's talk more details," General Guo Ling said. This eting will divide power from the Cabinet. The Imperial Cabinet was mighty, controlling both the executive and legislative departnts. This made the Cabinet the most powerful institute of the Empire at this ti.
"Will we arrange for the selection of the council mbers directly?" So ministers propose to elect the mbers of the Council by their ministers.
"Or are we going to emulate the democratic process? Let a group of people select council mbers," said Colonel Zhushing.
The Cabinet began to debate selecting mbers of the mber of Parliant, which is the most important point. The Cabinet did not trust the capitalists, afraid they would damage the country. The elite group of imperial leaders wanted to control Councilors' selection to maintain the imperial parliant to obey them.
"We can't do that," General Guo Ling shook his head.
"The legislative power will be separated from us, and the legislative supremacy belongs to the Emperor. We cannot intervene directly," General Guo Ling explained.
"The Pri Minister said this is correct. According to the Empire Constitution, Article 1 Clearly stated, the sovereignty belongs to the Emperor. Sovereignty does not belong to the people, so the democratic process is absolutely impossible," said Major Fang Hanjing, defying the democratic model because it will reduce the royal power of the Emperor, which is sothing they do not want to see the most.
"The Emperor has the highest legislative, executive and judicial power. Able to judge the ultimate power. Why don't we have His Highness control the selection of council mbers?" Major Fang Hanjing, Minister of Internal Affairs, suggests giving Zhao Lingxin the ultimate legislative power without the minister's right to intervene.
When it cos to this, everyone has nothing to say. The Cabinet quickly approved a resolution to and the draft constitution.
"Then this anded constitution has an official effect," Zhao Lingxin read the draft constitution. Then the signature will be effective imdiately.
Then the Cabinet passed another law following it. Act Establishing the Imperial Parliant, Assigned Emperor Zhao Lingxin to have the highest legislative power. No one will violate this power.
Zhao Ling Xin would personally appoint the 250 parliantarians.
Two hundred fifty council mbers who are legislative will have the power to discuss changes to the law. Then let the Emperor make a final decision.
Although the parliant was established, this council is truly powerless. Because no matter what laws they have issued, if Zhao Lingxin disagrees, it ends. On the other hand, if Zhao Lingxin wanted any law to be released, it could be implented imdiately because Zhao Ling Xin has full legislative power.
These guidelines were all because Zhao Lingxin did not want to let his power slip away. The purpose of this parliant is to set the stage for capitalists to shine in the city. Let the capitalists think they have real power, but they don't know Zhao Lingxin's huge trap hit them.
News of the establishnt of parliant was released. It created a broad reaction in Shenzhou. The capitalists from Tongzhou were delighted. Governnts keep their promises, willing to delegate so power to rchants. As they read the details, they were shocked to the next level because the power was far greater than what they had imagined.
"It's unbelievable. The governnt and the Emperor are so kind to us," said one capitalist, skeptical of what he saw. Because the governnt will give them legislative powers. At first, they were hoping to sit in the ministerial position. Unthinkable, the Emperor so generous established an agency called the parliant, giving them the country's great power.
The capitalists from Dongzhou were very satisfied with the power they had received. They have no argunts, just the governnt has agreed to the contract, they are thrilled.
"The Emperor has great rcy on us." The rchants were in tears, deeply grateful for Zhao Lingxin's imnse grace to accept the rchant's identity and give them great power.
These capitalists don't know how little their power is. It's just a doll in the council that waits for the drama.
This news also spread among the capitalists in Shenzhou. The Emperor will form a parliant and elect mbers himself. That makes all the rchants and capitalists can't sit still, like a frog being boiled in boiling water. They searched for a way, running around, using their lines to find a way into the palace, sending gifts to Zhao Lingxin.
A group of rchants hurried to find a precious gift to please the Emperor. They searched for the most outstanding thing so that Zhao Lingxin could easily notice, hoping that the Emperor had rcy on them to work in the council.
But approaching the palace was extrely difficult. The capitalists all felt helpless and headed to the Secretariat, which was the closest to the palace, to deliver gifts.
At this mont, Qin Bo was busy with a pile of gifts that grew like a mountain. Full of all areas in the Secretariat until there is no space.
"You unscrupulous rchants dared to bribe directly, such a shaless." Qin Bo said indignantly.
Qin Bo was a longti eunuch. Inevitably saw the process of bribery giving many gifts but this ti is not the sa as the previous ti. Usually, most people have to stealth through the back door, giving the money, not letting anyone know.
But this ti, the capitalists and rchants didn't care at all. Even with a huge bribe, send a car as a gift, shouted praise to the Emperor, hoping that his voice would resound into the palace. Qin Bo was extrely angry with these people, if quietly bribed, he could still accept it. But this grand procession was organized as if the entertainnt was circulating, shouting throughout the city, greatly shaming the Emperor's honor.
Afraid people will gossip that Zhao Lingxin took bribes from the council's rchants. Qin Bo stopped the rchants from delivering gifts to the Secretariat.
But no matter what, it's useless. The rchants continuously, sending more and more gifts.
There were still so rchants who could use their own connections to enter the palace.
"My son, send this to His Majesty, too." Sun Yuan asks Sun Wanping to bring a gift to Zhao Lingxin.
"Having a good son is very fortunate." Sun Yuan took a connection from his minister's son Sun Wanping. He was bribing Zhao Lingxin directly like no one else can. This Sun Yuan also expected that he would beco a mber of parliant.
Sun Yuan realized that Zhao Ling Xin was especially fond of the Spirit Stone. Sun Yuan delivered tens of thousands of spirit stones as a bribe. Many rchants in the capital also knew of Zhao Lingxin's liking. They provided a large quantity of spirit stones. Until Zhao Lingxin received a lot of wealth. The treasury began to fill up again. This chaos continued for a while. It took several days for this wave to calm down.
