An Eight-year-old Princess novel Chapter 1297

Liu Wenan continued to persuade her in a low voice, "I also know that your majesty is afraid that the subordinates will not do well enough and make some trouble, so you want to do everything by yourself."

"But your majesty, have you ever thought about it? How can you take everything in your hands? If the subordinates fail to do anything well, you could just scold and punish them. Just ask them do it over and over again until you are satisfied. You have to let them learn to deal with these things by themselves. Maybe you will be tired at the beginning, and later you will be relaxed. "

"Just like what happened today, you don't have to make it so detailed. You don't need to tell them which one should be cancelled or how to sell those things. You just need to tell the Ministry of Rites that they couldn't spend too much money and let them figure out a way by themselves. Then ask the Ministry of Revenue to supervise them... "

How could Yun Shang not know these things? It was easy to say, but difficult to do.

Most of the time, she found that no matter how hard she tried to teach them, they didn't seem to understand what she meant. They couldn't make her satisfied even if she tried several times, so she thought that she might as well do it herself, and it seemed to be faster.

She knew it was not right, but she always couldn't control herself.

"I see. I will pay attention to it in the future."

Liu Wenan smiled, "His majesty is learning to devolve the power now. Two days ago, his majesty told me that he wanted to form a cabinet."

"Form a cabinet?"

Liu Wenan nodded, "In fact, it has something to do with the accident of your majesty last time. His majesty thinks that there were a lot of political affairs in the court after he left the palace, and there were many urgent things that need to be solved."

"So his majesty thought it might be much better if there is a cabinet."

Yun Shang frowned, "But the cabinet..."

Hearing Yun Shang's words, Liu Wenan knew what she was thinking. He couldn't help smiling, "Your majesty, do you think it's difficult to control the cabinet if it's too powerful?"

Yun Shang pursed her lips. She neither nodded nor shook her head, showing her acquiescence.

In the previous dynasties, some emperor formed cabinet.

The officials of the cabinet served the emperor, participated in the review of memorials and the decision of confidential affairs.

Later, the cabinet gradually sidelined the power of the emperor, and gradually began to win over the courtiers. The minister in charge of the cabinet even planned to seize the throne...

The emperor understood that he couldn't delegate power to the cabinet, so he gradually reduced the power of the cabinet. After great efforts, the cabinet was removed.

"If the cabinet can't be controlled well, it may be too powerful. But your majesty, don't forget that the cabinet is not a real authority. It is just a temporary agency made up of several ministers from different departments in the court to assist his majesty in handling government affairs. "

"The promotion and demotion of the officials of the cabinet is decided by his majesty. The power of the cabinet is also decided according to his majesty's will. Whether the final decision of the cabinet is passed or not depends on his majesty's approval..."

Liu Wenan smiled and said, "If such a thing as the cabinet deprives the emperor of state affairs, there must be a most important prerequisite, that is, the emperor is too coward to act, which leads to such a result that the courtiers control state affairs."

"In fact, if an emperor is really so incompetent, such a result may be inevitable no matter whether there is a cabinet or not."
