Several great nobles in the cabinet used to consider themselves outstanding politicians, but their common sense of "territorial governance" seemed childish and ridiculous in front of Roddy.

"I have already said about the 'bank' before. In the future, banks all over the world need to cooperate with the current trading banks in the Karen Kingdom to lay the groundwork for the issuance of 'bank' in the future."

Roddy said while drinking water. Every time he talked about these things, he would make his mouth dry. Because people in this era lacked economic knowledge, many people couldn't even calculate the interest rates of loans, let alone related businesses such as bank lending. Fortunately, they were not here to popularize science today, so he wrote down all the relevant knowledge on paper, and just waited for the group of people to figure it out by themselves.

"The most important thing for us now is to improve the 'civil service examination' system." Roddy spoke seriously about the focus of today's meeting: "At the same time, we must control all the speeches... from top to bottom, instill the content of the cabinet's decrees. There is only one thing to promote in the future - tell the people of the whole country that in the future, they will no longer be the nobles who manage them in the future, but as long as they are outstanding enough, they can become managers themselves!"

This sentence made all the nobles in the cabinet stunned, but Sally sat there thinking. After a few seconds, she asked, "Rody, do you mean... try to open up the path of civilians?"

"right."

Roddy nodded and explained: "Before this, the lord divided the land and ruled, and the upward passage was completely controlled by the nobles. Only by making military achievements or making great contributions can one become a noble - but think about it, are all the nobles really good at management and administration?"

"Prime Minister Roddy, even if many of the nobles are poor, the civilians cannot read a word... What kind of administrative management do they know?"

Earl Black asked in confusion.

"Is it because the nobles monopolized knowledge?"

Roddy raised his eyelids slightly, "Is it difficult to recognize words? It's not difficult, but why are many people illiterate? Because under the protection of most lords and nobles, only nobles are qualified to learn this kind of knowledge. If civilians want to learn, they have to pay an unbearable price."

"If humans want to develop, the selection of senior ruling managers is limited to a small circle that does not expand much, and it is completely seeking death."

His words made several cabinet nobles ponder. When they arrived at their position, they naturally saw more. Most importantly, they were all politicians and had a more sensitive grasp of the direction of the wind and smell. One of them said, "What the Prime Minister means is... can even ordinary people enter the cabinet in the future?"

"The cabinet itself is a temporary product. It is not easy for us to coordinate everything in the kingdom, but I will only answer your question now: ordinary people - especially ordinary people with excellent ruling talents, if their knowledge and action can enhance the strength of the country, why can't they enter the cabinet center?"

Roddy pointed to himself: "You know, I was not a hereditary nobleman either."

Others dare not accept this. After all, the "blood theory" still has some markets in today's era. Many old nobles... descendants of founding fathers like "Russiflon" often look down on those new nobles, let alone civilians from mud-legged backgrounds.

This sense of superiority has been accumulated over hundreds of years of human development in this world. No one refuted Roddy's remarks because he had the ability to sit down and think about the essence of this problem, rather than just because he had the brainless defense of the interests of the class because he sat on the side of the "noble".

Sally had a serious face, and she also knew in her heart that what Roddy was right, but emotionally unacceptable - so she raised a sharp question for the first time: "If ordinary people enter the cabinet in the future, will he accept the canonization and become a noble?"

"No, this is the point I want to say... We divide people into classes, and there is no problem with this kind of hierarchy, because there is such hierarchy in any society. However, members of the management should not be restricted by class. What we need is smart people to manage, and it has nothing to do with their identity. Ordinary people do, then ordinary people are smart people among the nobles, so why should we refuse?"

"If it is as Your Majesty said, if you deliberately emphasize that only the 'noble' can enter the management level, then the 'civil service assessment system' will have no meaning to implement it. People will only try their best to become aristocrats, rather than learn the knowledge of 'civil service assessment'."

Roddy finally pointed to the round table in front of him: "I hope that all of us will consider the issues based on the interests of the majority of the people. But unfortunately, people often defend their own class interests. So if I am not here in the future, you are not here, and if you are descendants of young people who are still nobles... Will they still consider the issue of people's livelihood as they are today?"

The nobles frowned and thought about this issue. In fact, before Charles II, the entire Karen Kingdom had begun to gradually degenerate. The greatest role of the nobles was to fight wars. The long-term peace made the nobles lose their will and spend their days indulging in pleasure. The only courage was used to kill each other... The greatest role of the monarch was to balance the scale of the power between the various nobles and ensure that they were in a dominant position.

If this country continues to act like this in the future, what is the significance of the dragon's cooperation? What is the significance of today's centralization?

Sally could probably figure out what Roddy meant, and she asked tentatively: "So... do you want someone in the cabinet to always take into account the interests of the lower class?"

"Yes, your Majesty."

Roddy took a deep breath. He used to be just an otaku who played games online, but the times created heroes. Now, standing in this position, those political knowledge that once disdained can be felt at this moment when he thinks about it.

The strength of the people determines the foundation of the substructure. If the top-rise building does not have the foundation below, it can only be a castle in the air. And it is impossible to erase this class gap between the "upper and the lower" and it is impossible to eliminate it. The only thing that can be done now is to work hard on "ideology".

"A man will not betray his class, whether he is smart or stupid. If this country can prosper for a long time, he must put the interests of the lower class first. To be honest, it was easy at the beginning, but as time goes by, people sitting here often get farther and farther away from the lower class."

Roddy took out a table, which was a statistics about the current crystal cannon in the Kingdom of Karen: "We are not as powerful as the Dragon Clan, but we can develop weapons that are enough to shock the Dragon Clan - who can develop them? They rely on smart people, those who are willing to work hard, and those ordinary people who transport resources. Without them, these things are empty talk."

"The cabinet is now considered a 'ruling group'. My idea is to finally establish a 'park' with the cabinet as the core. But the parliament is divided into two parts, one is a member of the nobles and the other is a House of Commons composed of civilians. Cabinet members must also have members of the House of Commons to form."

While he said, he took out a schematic diagram and began to distribute it to all cabinet members. This method is actually to imitate the British political system. After all, there are countless nobles in the Kingdom of Karen. If they directly deprive all their power, they will definitely rebel. Therefore, the "noble" class and group must be maintained in the political system, but at the same time, they must also accommodate ordinary people to participate. Although it is certainly difficult to start, this step is the foundation road for the development of the entire kingdom, and there is no room for compromise.

Sally had already understood the "constitutional monarchy" before, so she was not surprised by the plan that Roddy had brought out at this moment. After reading it, the cabinet members also understood that this kingdom was no longer a ruler, but a completely cleansing political structure.

Are they willing? In fact, the great nobles here are not fools. After careful consideration of Roddy's words, they can confirm that this is the most reasonable solution to the long-term prosperity of the kingdom. If you are unhappy, it is because they cannot betray their own class and cannot accept the significant reduction of the aristocratic power.

"Prime Minister, what does this 'Supreme Court' mean? Is it not included in the framework of parliament?"

Someone asked a question and Roddy explained: "In the past, the rulings of any case were ruled by the lord, but the result was that aristocratic crimes often cost no amount of money, while civilian crimes were punished seriously. In the long run, the accumulation of contradictions would often result in bad consequences. Therefore, I hope that the institutions that judge all cases in the future will be completely independent of other institutions - including the cabinet, the upper and lower parliament and even His Majesty Sally."

"In other words, if I commit a sin, I will still be judged by the Supreme Court, and neither your Majesty nor you have the right to forgive my guilt. Everything will be subject to the judgment of the Supreme Court."

Roddy's words surprised the cabinet members. They thought that the "Cabinet Prime Minister" was already at the peak of power, and Ling Yue was almost above King Sally. Unexpectedly, Roddy was willing to take the initiative to create a department that would hinder him?

"The monarch establishes a constitution, and the prime minister is elected by a group or party with a majority in the parliament. The cabinet is convened by the prime minister and can only be established after approval by the House of Commons. The Supreme Court is independent of the monarch and parliament. These will be the three powers at the top of our kingdom in the future."

This is not the "separation of powers". In fact, most of the power is still in the parliament, but this has completely taken a big step from the backward lord feudal system.
