In the third year of Chuping (196), the first day of November.

Wang Can built a high platform in Chengdu and prayed to the sky to pray for the king of Shu.

After being crowned queen, the official positions of Yizhou officials also changed accordingly.

Xun You was appointed as the secretary of the military department, in charge of the selection of military attachés and military registration, ordnance, military orders and other matters. Xun You was one of the earliest strategists to follow Wang Can, and he was in charge of the military affairs under Wang Can from Wang Can's tenure as the Taishou of Hanzhong.

Cheng Yu was appointed as the secretary of the Ministry of Officials, in charge of the appointment, dismissal, assessment, promotion, transfer and other affairs of Yizhou officials. From the beginning of Wang Can's tenure as the Taishou of Hanzhong, Cheng Yu was in charge of the promotion assessment of officials under Wang Can, and this time he was directly appointed as the secretary of the ministry.

Li Ru was appointed as the head of the household department, and was in charge of the land, the people, the government of the money valley, and the difference in tribute.

Tian Feng was appointed as the secretary of the Criminal Department, in charge of legal orders, criminal laws, punishments and other matters.

Although Tian Feng did not officially submit to Wang Can, after Wang Can threw Tian Feng to Baocheng County as the county magistrate, he had already subtly changed Tian Feng. Coupled with the continuous persuasion of Tian Feng's family, Tian Feng has been labeled as Yizhou. When Wang Can's order reached Baocheng, Tian Feng's family was excited, and Tian Feng accepted the appointment calmly despite his expressionless face.

Ren An was appointed as the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, in charge of the decrees of the world's etiquette, sacrifices, and tributes.

Ren An is the leader of Yizhou's local Shilin and has a very high prestige.

Wang Can's appointment of Ren An as the secretary of the Ministry of Rites is a meritocracy on the one hand, and a balanced interest on the other hand. For the big clan in Shu, Ren An's appointment as the secretary of the Ministry of Rites is a very important thing.

As for the Ministry of Industry, Wang Can thought about it for a long time before deciding on it.

At the beginning, Wang Can was ready to appoint Mo Yan as the secretary of the Ministry of Labor, but because of Cai Yong's words, Wang Can dispelled the idea of appointing Mo Yan, after all, Mo Yan was old, and it was difficult to make progress.

As Cai Yong said, an official who is the head of a department does not have to be proficient in various matters, but must be able to take charge of the overall situation and share Wang Can's worries. Wang Can thought about it for a long time, and considering the contributions of Mo Yan's master and apprentice, he appointed Ma Jun as the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, in charge of various matters such as Shanze, Tuntian, and craftsmen in Yizhou, and Mo Yan and Pu Yuan also served in the Ministry of Industry.

In this way, the six departments under Wang Can began to take shape.

Although the six parts have been completed, many talents are still needed to join them to complete the six parts. Fortunately, Cai Yong was very knowledgeable and helped Wang Can to give advice, so he gradually handled various things well and made a steady transition.

……

Wang Can proclaimed himself king, which made the civil and military officials in Yizhou rejoice and boost their morale.

However, for the princes of the world, it is nothing less than a thunderclap in the flat ground.

When the princes in various places were still conquest, Wang Can was already the king of Shu in Yizhou, and his official position was higher than that of the princes in the world, which made the princes feel ready to move and have other ideas.

Among the princes, the first to claim the throne was Gongsun Zhan, who was in the north.

He got the news that Wang Can was called king, and he also followed Wang Can's example and called King Yan in Youzhou, and the country name was Yan.

Gongsun Chan was called king, but Yuan Shao did not move, but sent troops to attack Gongsun Chan.

At the end of the third year of Xingping, Yuan Shao's army defeated Gongsun Zhan and forced Gongsun Zhan, the king of Yan who had just been crowned king for more than a month, to die. Since then, Yuan Shao has completely pacified the north, solved the internal troubles in the rear, and successfully occupied the four prefectures of Bingzhou, Qingzhou, Jizhou, and Youzhou, and his strength has increased greatly.

Yuan Shao occupied the four states and began to be complacent.

At this time, Yuan Shao's ambition expanded unlimitedly, and he no longer wanted to be king. He even defeated Sun Zhan, the prince of Yan, saying that the king must be too inconsistent with his strength. For this. Yuan Shao convened his advisers to discuss the matter of becoming emperor. However, this time, Guo Tu, Feng Ji and other strategists opposed Yuan Shao's claim to be emperor, so that Yuan Shao had to be king.

Xingping 4th year (197), February.

Yuan Shao prayed for blessings in Jizhou, called King Zhao, and the country name was Zhao.

……

In the fourth year of Xingping, at the end of February.

After three resignations and three concessions in Runan, Liu Bei finally agreed to the proposal of Chen Gong and Zhang Fei and proclaimed himself king in Runan.

However, Liu Bei did not set up another country title, but called the king of Han, continuing the orthodoxy of the Han family. Liu Bei said that the purpose of the Han King was to make sure that he occupied the righteousness, and he was the rightful successor of the Han family.

……

Xingping 4th year, March.

Cao Cao was proclaimed king in Yanzhou, and called himself the king of Wei, with the country name Wei.

It's just that not long after Cao Cao became the queen, only half a month later, Xi Zhicai died of illness.

Xi Zhicai's death was a very big blow to Cao Cao. Cao Cao was sad in his heart, and personally buried the coffin for Xi Zhicai to show his respect. At this point, one of the most important strategists under Cao Cao died, but fortunately, Cao Cao gradually recruited talents, and there were also Mao Jue, Chen Qun, Liu Ye, Dong Zhao, Jiang Ji, Man Chong and other strategists, which could support the overall situation of Yanzhou.

……

In the fourth year of Xingping, in mid-March, Liu Biao of Jingzhou and Sun Jian of Jiangdong were respectively crowned kings.

Among them, Liu Biao is the king of Chu, and he is still an ally with Wang Can, and they are dependent on each other.

Sun Jian, with the assistance of Zhang Zhao, Zhang Hong, Yu Tuo, Lu Ji and others, has successfully swept away the six counties of Jiangdong, pacified the thieves in Jiangdong, and greatly increased his strength, he can compete with Liu Biao, and there is a vague motive to threaten Yuan Shu. At the suggestion of the Minister of Martial Arts under his command, Sun Jian was called King Wu and his country name was Wu.

……

The princes successively became kings, which was very stimulating to Yuan Shu.

Yuan Shao, who fought with him since he was a child, became the king of Zhao, unified the northern lands, and became one of the most powerful princes, which made Yuan Shu difficult to accept, but he still endured it.

At the same time, Liu Bei, who Yuan Shu looked down on the most in his heart, was also called the king, or the king of Han, which stimulated Yuan Shu's nerves that were unwilling to be lonely. In the end, even Yuan Shu's old subordinate Sun Jian also became the king and became the king of Wu.

The repeated stimulation made Yuan Shu no longer able to suppress the inflated ambition in his heart, he had been patient before, but seeing Yuan Shao call the king, Liu Bei called the king, and Sun insisted on the king, Yuan Shu decided to suppress the three of them and decided to be the emperor. Although some strategists persuaded Yuan Shu to let Yuan Shu be king, Yuan Shu thought that Yuan Shao, Liu Bei and Sun Jian were all kings, and they would be called emperors if they were killed.

Only by being the emperor can he show that he is more powerful than these three people.

In June of the fourth year of Xingping, Yuan Shu was called the emperor in Shouchun, built the Zhongshi, placed the Gongqing, and the north and south suburbs of the temple.

However, Yuan Shu's proclamation as emperor immediately aroused Liu Bei's dissatisfaction.

The princes of the world are called kings, but they still recognize the existence of the Han family. Moreover, he Liu Bei called the King of Han, which was orthodox of the Han family, and it was still within Liu Bei's acceptance, and the princes called the king also made Liu Bei the king of Han, so Liu Bei did not denounce Wang Can, the first person to be called the king, but acquiesced.

However, Yuan Shu was proclaimed emperor, and Liu Bei immediately sent a document to crusade against Yuan Shu. At the same time, Sun Jian, the king of Wu, and Cao Cao, the king of Wei, immediately responded to Liu Bei's inscription and also sent troops to attack Yuan Shu.

When Yuan Shu heard that Liu Bei, Cao Cao and Sun Jian were crusading against him, he wanted to cry without tears.

Why can Wang Can be called king, but he can't be called emperor?

As the saying goes, a monk can touch it, why can't he touch it? Yuan Shu couldn't understand the reason in his heart, but he didn't know that the king satisfied the ambitions of the princes from all walks of life, so the princes acquiesced, but the emperor openly opposed the Han family and became a bird.

The armies of Sun Jian, Liu Bei and Cao Cao came to Yangzhou and joined forces to attack Yuan Shu.

This war was fought in the name of the Han family, occupying the great righteousness, and no one in the princes of the world opposed it.

Yuan Shu sent troops to Yuan Shao for help, asking Yuan Shao to send troops to attack Cao Cao and relieve him of the siege, but Yuan Shao decisively rejected Yuan Shu's request after receiving the news. The public opinion of the war fell to the side of Liu Bei, Cao Cao and Sun Jian, and Yuan Shao naturally would not step on the final bottom line, so Yuan Shu was defeated.

In the end, in July of the fourth year of Chuping, Yuan Shu was defeated and killed, and Yangzhou was divided by Liu Bei, Sun Jian and Cao Cao.

Liu Bei attacked Yuan Shu and once again expanded his territory, occupying most of Yuzhou and Yangzhou; Sun Jian occupied the six counties of Jiangdong and a part of Yangzhou; Cao Cao's occupation of Yanzhou, Xuzhou, Qingzhou, and Yangzhou was also greatly strengthened. However, Cao Cao's strength is still insufficient compared to Yuan Shao, and he does not have the capital to compete with Yuan Shao.

Wang Can was called king, and the situation was reshuffled and changed again.

Because Wang Can is the king, I don't know how many people will be called emperors and how many people will be kings in the future.

PS: 2 of 4 watches; Chapter 800, finally crowned the king, and went to another level. But the flower list is in danger, ask for flower support, ask for chrysanthemum.
