My British Empire

ps: School has started! Rancher cries for tickets and subscriptions

Since the people who govern the place are their own people in each county, this will cause the authority of the central government to be weak, and the counties have no fear of London.

Therefore, the government orders issued by the central government to the local governments are basically those that are beneficial or harmless to them, and various local committees will implement them.

And if those decrees harm their interests, or are not conducive to the counties, they will choose not to implement them, or make superficial efforts.

At this time, the central government will send people to do the work to persuade them. If they are really unwilling to implement, the central government will generally not take any punishment measures. At most, the chairman of each committee will be removed from his post and replaced.

However, as a community of interests, it can't be done by removing one's job, and it's still the same if one person is replaced.

A concrete example is the bourgeois revolution in England.

Both the king and the parliament have local supporters. England is divided into two factions, and the local counties are divided into the parliamentary party and the king's party.

Moreover, this also formed a kind of ethos, loving hometown.

That's right, like the Chinese, they love their hometown, praise their hometown, and despise people from other regions.

The development of this kind of atmosphere is not conducive to the unity of the country and causes the division of society.

Therefore, in addition to the common law, all parts of England have their own laws, and they are also different. For example, public smoking is legal here, but not elsewhere.

It has also affected the United States. Now the self-government of states in the United States is modeled after the United Kingdom.

But Edward is really a person who likes power, eager to fully grasp power.

He is very uncomfortable with the situation where the local government is neither divorced from the central government nor controlled by the central government.

Moreover, he was speechless about the situation in which various regions in the UK want to split in the future. The British have no concept of China's unification at all.

For this reason, Edward felt that something should be done, otherwise even if he occupied the colony in the future, he would not be able to fully integrate into the UK, and in the end it would be inevitable that he would not be able to get rid of the loss.

When I think about it, I finally occupied the Americas, immigrated, opened up wasteland, and opened mines. I created a rich area with my own hands, but it broke away from my embrace and became another country, and even demolished my own pedestal.

The aggrievedness of the British! Forget it.

Thinking about it this way, on this day, he will no longer meet with other people. Instead, he will stay in his study wholeheartedly and begin to create a local system suitable for England.

Throughout the night, Lucy changed the candles in the study one after another, and the drafts written by Edward accumulated layer after layer.

Edward didn't feel very tired, but his head was a little groggy, as if he had been overused.

"Don't let anyone disturb me while I'm sleeping!" Edward buried his face in the pillow, his voice hoarse.

"By the way, let me know the chairman of the Privy Council, Faris Alexander, and tell me that I will hold an interim meeting of the Privy Council at three o'clock in the afternoon, so that they can sit down and get ready!"

Squinting his eyes, Edward looked at Lucy's protruding figure, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and said softly.

Then, he closed his eyes and began to rest.

Soon, His Excellency the Speaker of the Privy Council, who had been thinking about how to apply for the admission test, received such a notice.

"What is His Majesty the King going to do? This is really an incomprehensible thing!" Faris looked out of the window, and he felt that His Majesty the King was thinking like a wild horse. Although he was a little more gentle than Henry VIII, he was still more Difficult to serve.

Soon, adhering to the king's wishes, Faris summoned several other important Privy Council ministers.

The tall and tall former Lord Keeper of the Seal Borman Randall, the former Justice Earl Robert with a silver-white wavy wig, the former Secretary of State Don Francis, and Kyle, who has been valued by the king in recent months Lance, together with Faris Alexander, the chairman of the Privy Council, these few people constitute the core of the Privy Council.

After the reform of the Privy Council, the Privy Seal Keeper was merged into the Privy Council. In addition to performing the duties of the Privy Seal Keeper, it also handled matters related to the royal family.

The specific responsibility is the official position management department.

The Secretary of State is also merged into the Privy Council, but his job is to replace the king to monitor the Privy Council and record the actions and conversations of the ministers.

Specifically responsible for supervising the Department of Management and communicating with the Circuit Court.

The former justice, Earl Robert, is in charge of legal and court affairs, serving as a bridge between the court and the Privy Council.

Specifically responsible for the Ministry of Religion and the Ministry of Social Security.

Kyle Lance is in charge of the Department of Agriculture and Business Administration.

As the speaker of the Privy Council, Faris Alexander is responsible for the affairs of the three central departments: the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Ministry of Finance, and the Ministry of Construction Engineering.

Each of the nine central departments is in charge of a share. The chairman of the Privy Council manages the most important foreign affairs and finances, plus the less important construction department, which has sufficient leadership.

This is also the general appearance of the Privy Council in Edward's mind. Five people are enough, and the running-in is not bad.

As for the other Privy Council ministers, what should they do? It's not bad to be an idler, let's make up the number!

"Your Majesty—" Seeing the king coming in, the five people stood up and bowed in a respectful manner.

"Get up!" Edward looked at the five people and nodded slightly.

"I called everyone here this time to tell you about my performance to you in the past few months!"

Upon hearing this, the five of them quickly sat up, with serious faces, and looked at Edward's youthful face without blinking.

"I have also seen the performance of everyone in the past few months, and you have done a good job!"

Edward's words relieved the tense hearts of the few of them.

"However, some departments in the central government are still wandering leisurely every day. I am not here for the elderly!"

As soon as Edward's words came out, the bodies of the five people all shook, their heads drooping slightly.

Just when they were about to say something, Edward showed a smile, but continued: "It's not your fault, after all, most departments in the central government don't have anything to do, so why not hang around?"

Only then did everyone let out a sigh of relief.

Seeing the expressions of approval on the five people's faces, Edward nodded and his face became serious.

"Your Majesty, it's not that we don't want to do things. It's just that some people in the local area don't strictly implement the orders of our central government, as if they didn't even hear them, they still go their own way and don't put London in their eyes at all!"

As the chairman of the Privy Council, Faris rolled his eyes. He really deserved to be a bureaucrat for many years. He seemed to understand something and immediately began to cooperate and speak first.

"This is not only a contempt for London, it is also a contempt for your Majesty!"
