Liu Yan has indeed done this over the years, but the more he is in his old age, the more he feels like he is in no time.

For such a person with a sincere heart, Li Qing certainly could not be stingy with the things in his heart, so he started talking about it at that time.

Since Liu Yan is a talent who controls internal affairs, Li Yan of course had to tell Liu Yan everything he knew about internal affairs.

After all, at Liu Yan's age, he must have a stronger sense of urgency than Li Yan. In his hands, the internal affairs of the Tang Dynasty should be on the right track.

In fact, Li Qing knew that at this time, after such a long time of development in the Tang Dynasty, the internal affairs system had actually had a very obvious framework.

In the three-province and six-minister system that has been implemented for more than a hundred years, the separation of decision-making and administration has been completed and matured. The decision-making and the Menxia Province are very different in nature from the Wei and Jin Dynasties. They are no longer simply the emperor's secretary, consulting and attendant institutions, but a decision-making and order system independent of the imperial power.

It turned out that the Shangshu Province, which was the prime minister, had differentiated his duties and power. The Shangshu Province's decision-making power was transferred to the Zhongshu Province and Menxia Province, and the administrative power was retained, and the Shangshu Province developed in the direction of functionalization. The emperor became the supreme leader of the country.

In the early Tang Dynasty, the head of the Secretariat of the Secretariat, the head of the Secretariat of the Secretariat, the head of the Secretariat of the Secretariat, the left and right Pushe were all prime ministers. "The head of the Secretariat of the Secretariat, the Secretariat of the Secretariat of the Secretariat of the Secretariat of the Secretariat of the Secretariat of the Secretariat of the Secretariat of the Secretariat of the Secretariat of the Secretariat of the Secretariat of the Secretariat of the Secretariat of the Secretariat of the Secretariat of the Secretariat of the Secretariat of the Secretariat of the Secretariat of the Secretariat of the Secretariat of the Secretariat of the State, which is the

When Li Shimin was in power, due to the high status of the Secretariat and the Shizhong, it was not often set up. The prime minister discussed national affairs in the Zhengshi Hall. The people who participated in the Zhengshi Hall meeting were first among the three high officials, and later the emperor appointed people to participate in the Zhengshi Hall meeting to exercise the prime minister's power.

In the name of "participating in the government affairs", "sencing in the government affairs", "sencing in the gains and losses", "sponsoring to the government affairs", etc., he is the actual prime minister. The political affairs hall meeting where the prime minister works is a decision-making organ that assists the emperor in ruling the country. All military major policies are agreed here and finally the emperor decides and implements them.

After Emperor Gaozong, he was appointed as prime minister with the position of "Pingzhangshi in the Secretariat of the Secretariat" or "Three Rates of the Secretariat of the Secretariat". The collective prime minister system was formed. Some officials who served as prime ministers were not necessarily of high rank, so they were easier to advance and retreat, which seemed convenient to use. The prime ministers of the group coordinated discussions, divided the labor and cooperated, and supervised each other, improving work efficiency.

The collective prime minister system is not only conducive to the use of the talents of the ministers, but also weakens the power of the prime minister and strengthens the emperor's power, so it is still used until now.

However, this so-called successful three-province and six-department system was not always so smooth. After Kaiyuan, the situation of two senior officials under the Secretariat and the ministers of the Six Ministry became more and more common, and the number of officials of the Six Ministry attended the meeting of the Political Affairs Hall increased. The government affairs that were originally ruled by the Provincial Meeting of the Shangshu were gradually moved to the Political Affairs Hall for ruling.

Yao Chong even sent a letter to the Governor of Bianzhou Ni Ruoshui as the Secretary of the Central Committee to destroy locusts. In the fourth year of Kaiyuan, Ni Ruoshui, the Governor of Bianzhou, boycotted the work of destroying locusts led by Yao Chong. Yao Chong issued a letter to Ruoshui and forced him to take measures to eliminate locusts.

Although figures like Yao Chong and Song Jing played a very positive role in the development of the Tang Dynasty, this situation is naturally not something that any emperor would like to see, especially an emperor who is highly regarded as an emperor like Li Longji.

Since this transformation was the result of the continuous evolution of the political system in the Tang Dynasty, many relationships in the system structure and operating mechanism were not completely changed with the change of the Political Affairs Hall to the Secretariat.

During the Kaiyuan period, the Tianbao period was still in a vague transition state, so people did not pay special attention to this at that time. The compilation of "The Six Dictations of Tang" was completed in the 25th year of Kaiyuan. Although some of them reflected the institutional characteristics of the Gaizhengshitang as a subordinate of the Zhongshu, there were no positive records of this institutional change.

Another reason for this situation may also be related to the differences between Li Linfu and Literary bureaucrats such as Zhang Shuo and Zhang Jiuling.

In short, by this time, such so-called differences no longer existed. Li Qing firmly controlled the Tang Dynasty. Whether it was a civil servant or a military general, he was not as great as Li Qing.

So in the current Tang Dynasty, Li Qing's power is still supreme, and both Zhang Xun and Liu Yan want to maintain this status quo. This is the relationship between the monarch and the subject, and it has nothing to do with who the monarch and the subject are.

This time, Li Yan did not hide his own personalities at all, and almost told Liu Yan about his old secrets.

Of course, Liu Yan was also very educated. The more Li Yan told him, the more he realized that Li Yan had been hiding his weaknesses before.

They are obviously capable of leading you well in the internal affairs, and you most likely have to listen to others, but in the end they delegate power to you.

"Your Majesty, if I was not like Liu Yan in the Tang Dynasty, there would naturally be more talents coming out. But if the Tang Dynasty had not had His Majesty, it would not be necessary now. Your Majesty is the benefactor of all the people of the Tang Dynasty! I have been very smart since I was a child and can see clearly about the affairs in the court and the affairs of the world. Only Your Majesty is the only person I admire for decades!"

After drinking a few glasses of wine given to him by Li Yan, Liu Yan's mood became a little bit. He praised Li Yan, which was completely different from his previous noble appearance.

However, Li Neng knew that what he said at this time should be the truth. Li Neng naturally drank a lot with him, so he simply left Liu Yan to eat in the Tai Chi Palace. After all, Zhang Xun and the others had no idea how many times they had eaten here, but Liu Yan obviously came less.

Li and Liu Yan ate this meal for two or three hours, even if it took longer than when they drank with their friends in later generations. In the end, Li Yan asked the guards to send Liu Yan back.

Li Yan knew that perhaps for Liu Yan, this was the feeling of having a friend with a few glasses, but he really couldn't get too close to him. This is something that both the king and the minister must abide by.

Li Wen can only have the best distance and distance to his ministers, and is the best for all talents.

Li Neng knew that the things he said would definitely turn into good policies and ideas in Liu Yan's head, and Li Neng could basically agree with those ideas. In this way, he made a contribution to the Tang Dynasty.
