The conflict between imperial power and prime ministerial power was due to the overlapping power and mutual distrust between the two sides.
It’s different now.
The Constitutional Court and the Emperor are like grasshoppers tied to the same rope.
If the imperial power is combined with the power of the prime minister, then there will be no power barriers and the power will be overwhelming, right?
Therefore, the current system of the Song Dynasty is, to a certain extent, the best system in ancient times and a model established by the prime minister.
There was no suspicion between the monarch and his ministers, and power was highly concentrated, which greatly improved administrative efficiency and formed the almost perfect administrative system we have today.
certainly.
This system is a special case.
If it weren't for Zhao Jun, Zhao Zhen would not have been able to create a place like the Constitutional Council where power was highly concentrated, nor would he have been able to delegate power to the lower levels.
So in general, as long as Zhao Jun is there, this system can be maintained.
If one day he is gone.
It is hard to say whether this system can continue to be maintained.
The only good news is that Zhao Jun is still very young and can live a long life.
"Well, now Yelu Zongzhen has fled north in panic. The only people left in Youyan are a large number of Liao soldiers who have fled and some Liao troops outside Yumen Pass."
Fan Zhongyan said, "Our mission now is to wipe out the remaining Liao forces in Youyan. Then we will split our forces into two groups. One will rush to support Di Qing and attack Chenzhou, while the other will head west to support Yunzhou. We must recapture the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, which we lost to the Han people for a hundred years."
"yes."
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Then Fan Zhongyan looked at Wang Su and said with a smile, "Zhongyi, this is such good news that it should be reported immediately. Write a letter immediately and send it to Bianliang by horseback to report it, so that His Majesty and the civil and military officials can be happy."
"yes."
Wang Su laughed heartily. "Your Majesty, if you knew about this, I'm afraid you wouldn't know how happy you would be."
"Yes, this is the recovery of Yanyun. In the past, we couldn't even dream of it."
"Who could have imagined that the Liao people, who were so arrogant when they reached the city of Chanzhou, would now be driven north by the Song Dynasty and dare not look south?"
"What a pity! My uncle was an official in Hebei in his early years. He met with misfortune when the Liao invaded. My father has wanted to avenge him his entire life. Today, his vengeance is finally fulfilled, but my father is no longer here to see it."
Everyone was filled with emotion and looked up at the sky above their heads.
The warm spring sun is so warm and gentle that it makes the land of Youyan seem full of tranquility and peace.
It has been a hundred years since the Song Dynasty lost Yanyun.
And today.
It was like a breath of foul air in the chest suddenly bursting out.
Very comfortable.
