Volume 2 Heroes in Troubled Times Chapter 8 Ready to Fly Section 11

Chapter 8 Ready to Fly, Section 11, the great general Li Hong, with his two wives and children, went to the Jinyang University Hall in Hanging Urn Mountain to visit the sacrificial wine five scissors, and discussed with the doctors in the university hall about the many problems exposed in the implementation of the new policy.

In the evening, Li Hong and his family visited Zongzheng Xu Shao, and a group of former Chang'an ministers with high moral integrity, such as Chun Yujia, Zhang Xi, Zhao Wen, Zhao Qian, Han Rong, and Zhou Zhong, were also invited to Xu's mansion for a banquet.

The guests and hosts talked happily and dispersed. When Li Hong returned to the general's mansion, Zhang Miao, the court lieutenant, and Sima Fang, the imperial historian, were already waiting in the mansion at the invitation of the general.

After Li Hong exchanged pleasantries with them, the topic immediately turned to Zhang Yang, Dong Zhao, Wei Yan and others.

Li Hong's attitude is very clear, these people should not only be pardoned without guilt, but also stay in the court for use, and promote their official positions as much as possible, which will be of great benefit to appease the rebels and pacify the world in the future.

Ting Weiqing Zhang Miao was very embarrassed, because the eldest princess had spoken three times and twice, and she should be severely punished for rebellion, severely punished, and never soft.

"Eldest princess, I'll talk about it." Li Hong smiled and comforted,

"You and Koma-sama have to figure it out. The criminal law is dead, the sentence is alive, and there will always be a way. ”

But the eldest princess insisted...... "But Ma Fang wanted to stop talking."

"You say, I won't tell the eldest princess." Li Hong said with a smile. Zhang Miao and Sima Fang looked at each other and smiled.

"General, in the long run, it is still necessary to revise the criminal law. Without the criminal law to follow, there is no way to appease the rebellion, and the court has difficulties, which is very unfavorable to speeding up the pace of pacifying the world. Li Hong shook his head,

"The revision of the criminal law first involves different strategies for governing the country. The eldest princess and the ministers have a great contradiction, and it is difficult to unify their opinions. In addition, the criminal law also has a bearing on the long-term peace and stability of the society and on the foundation of the society, and cannot be easily changed. I think it's better to put it aside for now. ”

"In recent years, the focus of the imperial court has been on counterinsurgency, which belongs to extraordinary times, and there should be special criminal laws to deal with rebellion in extraordinary times. Now rebellion is all over the world, killing is inexhaustible, and the punishment must be relaxed, with appeasement as the main thing, supplemented by killing. Li Hong looked at the two of them and said with a smile,

"Although the eldest princess insists on the rule of law, she still needs special treatment during special periods, and she can't be treated generally. You can be strategic, and within the scope of the criminal law, find some way to convince the eldest princess. Zhang Miao and Sima Fang understood.

"When will the general leave Jinyang?" Sima Fang asked.

"After the northern army returns to Jinyang, I will move to weaken." Li Hong said with a smile,

"It's about four or five days. Is there anything wrong with Lord Sima? ”

"I'll go back and write the recital." But Ma Fang said,

"This matter is important, it is better to take advantage of the fact that the general is in the court, and ask the eldest princess to agree." Li Hong smiled and shook his head,

"Am I gone? You can't do it? Seeing off Zhang Miao and Sima Fang, Li Hong hurriedly walked into the study.

Jia Xu, Fu Gan, Chen Qun, Yuan Chuan and other officials of the two governments are discussing the new official system. Because the general Li Hong was about to leave Jinyang, Taifu Cai Yong and other ministers drew up a preliminary proposal for the new official system overnight, and sent people to the hands of the eldest princess and the ministers of the court.

After the Great Sima General's Mansion got the proposal for the new official system, Jia Xu and the others were very surprised, and hurriedly urged Li Hong to return to the house, but Li Hong didn't care and didn't walk into the study until midnight.

Jia Xu handed the document on the case to Li Hong. Li Hong took it in his hand, but he didn't look at it,

"You've been talking about it for a long time, what do you think?" Several people looked at each other, but they didn't speak.

Li Hong immediately put the file on the desk,

"So, you have no opinion? Since I don't have an opinion, I don't need to read it. ”

"General, let's take a look." Jia Xu sighed,

"The eldest princess is a genius."

"Really?" Li Hong was not surprised at all,

"Master Jia, please tell me." This new official system fully embodies the insistence headed by the eldest princess

The idea of governing the country by a group of officials who "rule the country by law". These people advocate

Judging from this new official system, they are not only determined to reform, but also to reform thoroughly.

These people push

"Law",

"Technique",

The statecraft of combining "power" highlights the supremacy of monarchical power. There are two amazing innovations in the new official system, one is the addition of the Central Scholar Supervisor, and the Central Scholar Supervisor is the middle dynasty, which echoes each other with the Inner Dynasty, and the imperial power is greatly stabilized.

The second is to divide Shangshutai out of the foreign dynasty and become an independent institution on an equal footing with the foreign dynasty, and move Shangshutai out of the palace.

These two astonishing feats were aimed at strengthening and consolidating the imperial power and making the monarch's position even more exalted.

In the past, the eldest princess was in charge, and the four ministers were subordinate to the Shangshu and auxiliary ministers. The eldest princess supervised the inner court alone, while the middle court was jointly supervised by the eldest princess and the four auxiliary ministers, and the power of Shangshutai was divided among five people.

Now the addition of the middle secretary, with the middle secretary as the middle court, the eldest princess will supervise the middle and inner dynasties alone, and the decision-making power of national affairs in her hands has expanded dramatically, and her power has increased suddenly.

After Shangshutai moved out of the palace, it was supervised by the general. Due to the special status of the general, and the great general Sima of the auxiliary government, he still has the power to participate in the decision-making of national affairs, and also has the decision-making power in military affairs alone.

Now Shangshutai is an independent institution on an equal footing with foreign dynasties, and no longer bears part of the powers of China and North Korea, so the decision-making power in national politics has been reduced, but with the expansion of the institution, some of the relative powers that Shangshutai itself has, that is, administrative executive power, have been expanded.

Shang Shutai is still weighted. Because of the change of the three princes and nine secretaries system headed by the prime minister, the power of the foreign dynasties expanded rapidly, but what made the ministers of the foreign dynasties linger was that part of the national decision-making power that was taken away by the Chinese and North Koreas was still controlled by the eldest princess because of the setting of the middle secretary, and the independence and relocation of Shang Shutai from the palace made some of his administrative executive power overlap with the administrative executive power owned by Shang Shutai.

In this way, a pattern that is very unfavorable to foreign countries has been formed. Shangshutai and the foreign dynasties were able to accept the orders of the Chinese dynasty and carry out the emperor's orders.

The emperor relied on and trusted Shangshutai, and let Shangshutai carry out all the political affairs after decision-making. Then the foreign dynasties are useless, and there is nothing to do.

On the contrary, the officials of Shangshutai can go to drink and chat, and live a chaotic life. The eldest princess loves the general and trusts the general, and everyone in the court knows it.

Taking a step back, even if there is no personal relationship between the eldest princess and the general, for the sake of Zhongxing Sheji, the eldest princess will take the initiative to curry favor with the general.

The great generals were powerful and had an army in their hands, which could help the Son of Heaven revive the Great Han, but the ministers who curry favor with the foreign dynasties could not do so.

Therefore, before the world is not pacified, the Son of Heaven needs a general to conquer the capital of the four seas, and the power of Shangshutai will definitely override the foreign courts.

The biggest role of the foreign dynasties at this time was to contain and restrain Shangshutai, so as not to have too much power and infringe on the imperial power in turn.

"The current official structure of the imperial court and the official pattern formulated by Emperor Xiaowu when he entrusted Gu are fundamentally two different things."

"At that time, Emperor Xiaowu entrusted Huo Guang to use the power of Shangshutai in China and the DPRK to expand imperial power, check and balance each other, and the three were mutually restrained and restricted. At present, the official structure of the imperial court is that the imperial power occupies an absolute authoritative position, and the monk Shangtai of the foreign dynasty shares the power equally under the control of the strong imperial power, and checks each other down. Jia Xu shook his head again and again, with a look of admiration,

"The eldest princess's intellect is amazing." After Jia Xu finished speaking, Li Hong also finished reading the scroll in his hand.

Li Hong thought for a moment and said slowly: "There is still a big difference in the authority of the monk Shangtai of the outer dynasty. With the end of the war, the stability of the world, the gradual growth of the Son of Heaven and the gradual loss of the authority of the eldest princess, the foreign dynasty was finally able to control the power. Jia Xu smiled,

"General, the eldest princess is very determined to maintain the imperial power. When the world is calmed down, I am afraid that the role of the foreign governments will ......" Jia Xu took back the following words.

"I'm afraid of what?" Li Hong asked,

"Could it be that Shangshutai can still replace the foreign courts."

"Correct." Jia Xu patted the case table and said excitedly,

"Exactly." Li Hong stared at Jia Xu with wide eyes, incredulous,

"How is that possible? The system of three princes and nine kings in this dynasty has been implemented for more than 400 years, how could it be replaced by a small Shangshutai? Master Jia, are you old and confused? Jia Xu stroked his beard, looked at Fu Gan, Chen Qun and Yuan Jian who were sitting around, and asked in surprise, "Am I old?" My new wife is about to give birth to a son, so I shouldn't be too old, right? The crowd burst into laughter.

Chen Qun pointed at Jia Xu and smiled: "Lord Jia, are you sure that child is yours?" ”

"How can it be?" Jia Xu pretended to be angry, and reached out to pull Chen Qun's beard. The atmosphere in the study room suddenly relaxed.

"General, let me ask you a few questions, and you will know if I am old and confused." Jia Xu laughed with everyone for a while, and then got back to business.

"General, although Shang Shutai has moved out of the palace now, does it nominally belong to the Outer Dynasty or to the Middle Dynasty?"

"Of course, China and North Korea." Li Hong said,

"Shangshutai is still the place where the emperor deals with government affairs. The middle book supervisor is just for the eldest princess, and in the future, the eldest princess will return to the Son of Heaven, and it is difficult to say whether the middle book supervisor will continue to exist. In addition, if it is clearly stipulated that Shangshutai belongs to the foreign dynasty, then now that Shangshutai and the foreign dynasty are on an equal footing, it is tantamount to openly grabbing power with the foreign dynasty, so how can the ministers of the foreign dynasty agree to such a revision of the official system? ”

"Since Shangshutai belongs to the Chinese Dynasty, who will lead the general's expedition abroad?"

"The eldest princess, of course." Jia Xu smiled slightly,

"General, when you are away, the eldest princess not only controls the Inner Dynasty and the Middle Dynasty, but also controls Shangshutai, so how should state affairs be handled?" Li Hong's heart moved, as if he had an understanding.

Jia Xu said with a smile: "It's very simple, the state pre-decided in the middle book supervisor in advance, and drafted it as an edict, and then sent it to the eldest princess in the forbidden middle school, and the eldest princess and the officials of the Shizhong Temple reviewed and rehearsed, and then handed it over to Shangshutai for promulgation and implementation." ”

"The whole thing is presided over by the eldest princess alone, and the middle secretary, the middle temple, and the Shangshutai make decisions, deliberations, and implement them, and the imperial power and the relative power are all in one. Let me ask, at this time, will the eldest princess still let the Prime Minister's Mansion of the Foreign Dynasty implement her own decisions? Is it necessary for her to argue with the prime minister and the foreign ministers about the correctness of a decision? For example, Changgong mainly implements the policy of soil breaking, does she have any resistance? ”

"In the past few years of pacifying the world, there have been frequent wars and continuous conquests by large armies, whether it is the eldest princess or the general, they all hope to have a stable and efficient operation of the imperial court, and the current official system can just do this."

"The general obviously will not oppose this kind of official system, on the contrary, in order to calm the world and stabilize the society as soon as possible, the general will also fully support the eldest princess to implement this kind of official system."

"The eldest princess has gathered the imperial power in one body, and with the support of the general, what other national affairs cannot be smoothly decided and implemented?"

"When the world is calm and the society is stable, this kind of bureaucracy, which is highly centralized in power and has an extremely smooth operating mechanism, will play a greater role in the process of restoring national strength, so ......" Jia Xu sighed and said helplessly,

"It is inevitable that the power of foreign dynasties will fall. The Prime Minister, the Taiwei, and the Imperial Historian may become ornaments, and the Jiuqing Prefecture may be reduced to a subsidiary of Shangshutai. Perhaps, in another ten or twenty years, Shangshutai will be a foreign dynasty. ”

"Since Shangshutai is directly controlled by the emperor, and the emperor is both in charge of the imperial power and the prime minister, the struggle between the imperial power and the prime minister will no longer be as unscrupulous and fierce and cruel as it is now, and it will be difficult for a powerful minister like the prime minister who is in a high position and combines the power of the prime minister and may endanger the society, and it will be difficult to appear in the future."

"Does it also include a great general like me?" Li Hong now has a new understanding of the new official system.

Hearing Jia Xu mention the prime minister without mentioning the Great Sima General, he immediately asked. Jia Xu nodded unabashedly.

"The Son of Heaven has grown up and is in charge. If we can continue to use this official system and persist in it, we will definitely make the Han Dynasty prosperous. Li Hong pondered for a long time, and suddenly asked: "Since the new official system may make the foreign dynasty completely lose its power, how can Cai Yong and Cui Lie not see it?" ”

"As long as there is a foreign dynasty, there is the power of the minister, and when Shangshutai becomes a foreign dynasty, the power of the minister is in Shangshutai." Li Hong immediately realized that he was asking too naΓ―vely, and his face couldn't help but turn red.

Jia Xu looked at Li Hong, who looked embarrassed, and comforted him with a smile: "The general's thinking is still limited to the old official system, so he can't turn the corner for a while. In fact, this kind of bureaucracy did not damage the power of the prime minister at all, but only deprived many high-ranking people of power, and only those high-ranking ministers of the current dynasty were damaged. Let's be honest......" Jia Xu thought for a moment and took back the following words.

"Master Jia, go on." Li Hong urged,

"Let's talk about it today, so let's stop here, don't have any scruples." Jia Xu hesitated for a long time, and then said slowly: "To be honest, this official system is actually set up for you. Li Hong was surprised.

"The Han Dynasty has come to this day, if you want to revitalize Sheji, you can only rely on the army in the hands of the general and the general, but the general's meritorious achievements and high power, whether it is a great general Sima or a prime minister, it will endanger the existence of imperial power."

"The imperial power of the Han Dynasty has been reduced to the extreme, and even if the general uses all his might, it will be difficult to save it. In the future, it is not the general who betrays his loyalty, but the world forces the general to betray his loyalty. ”

"Therefore, the eldest princess can't wait to take back your military and political power, and the ministers of the court can't wait to change the official system to make you the prime minister, all for the purpose of protecting the imperial power."

"It is very passive to simply protect the imperial power, the Son of Heaven is young, the eldest princess is a woman, and with the prestige of the general getting bigger and bigger, the imperial power is not vulnerable at all. The genius eldest princess resolutely chose to replace defense with offense, attacked decisively, and did not hesitate to subvert the old official system and seize the imperial power and prime minister's power in her hands. Of course......" Jia Xu looked at Li Hong, with a warm smile on his face,

"The reason why the eldest princess dared to do this was because of the ...... between her and the general" Li Hong knew what he meant, so he had to smile bitterly,

"Master Jia, what are you kidding? After the victory in Jizhou, Hebei suffered a heavy blow, and if I want to keep Hebei and stabilize Hebei, I must compromise. Is it a coincidence that the eldest princess chose such an accurate timing? Jia Xu's old face stiffened, and he laughed twice a little embarrassed.

"I'm also anxious about what the future holds. It doesn't matter if I die, but I have many brothers who have followed me for more than ten years. I can't help but think about them. Li Hong sighed helplessly,

"There is only one Guangwu Emperor, perhaps an unprecedented one. He did not kill a single Zhongxing celebrity, he made all the meritorious ministers of Zhongxing Han get prominent fame and wealth for generations. Did my brothers and I have such luck? Jia Xu, Fu Gan and the others looked at each other speechlessly.

"Even if I don't say what Lord Jia said, I can guess the purpose of the eldest princess and the ministers of the court and the central government to revise the official system. The reason why I happily handed over the military and political power was also because I wanted to be a loyal minister who was famous in history, and I also wanted myself and my brothers who followed me to fight the world to have a good ending. ”

"This official system allows the Son of Heaven to control the imperial power and the relative power, and in the future, the world will be peaceful, whether it is the eldest princess or the Son of Heaven, as long as I hand over the military power, there will be no threat to them. At that time, I could be a prime minister or a lieutenant in the outer court. ”

"In the past, I always wanted to defend the border after the world was calm. It's funny to think about it now, when the world is calm, who else dares me to lead the army to defend the border fortress? However, it's not bad to be able to live in the court, at least I can enjoy wealth. Of course......" Li Hong waved his hand and smiled,

"Hopefully I'll have that luck." He was about to leave Jinyang in a few days, and Li Hong wanted to squeeze out more time to spend with his wife and daughter, so he instructed Jia Xu a few words.

As long as it helps Zhongxing Sheji and helps the eldest princess to govern, the Great Sima General's Mansion will resolutely support it.

Then he went back to the back house to rest. Jia Xu, Fu Gan and the others were very excited. The general Li Hong supervised the Shangshutai, and the officials of the two prefectures were subordinate to the monk Shutai, and the officials of the two prefectures were the people of the government.

If this opportunity can be used to let Shang Shutai get the power, it will not only be helpful to ZTE, but also related to the future and destiny of the individual.

Jia Xu, Fu Gan, and others convened more than a dozen principal subordinates of the two prefectures overnight to repeatedly discuss the expansion and authority of Shangshutai in the new official system, and to write a chapter in order to strive for the greatest interests of Shangshutai.

The next morning, Dasi Nong Li Wei hurried to the General's Mansion,

"The eldest princess is coming soon, you can prepare." Nehiro was slightly surprised, and hurriedly asked the two ladies to prepare for the drive.

Li Wei found an opportunity and pulled the general to the study.

"Do you remember what I said to you in the carriage the morning before yesterday?"

"What about Lord Zhang Wen's deathbed wish?" Li Hong asked with a smile,

"Zhong Yuan, are you honest, does this matter have anything to do with you?"

"Why do you think that?"

"The day before yesterday, did you have a purpose?"

"The before and after of this matter has something to do with me, but I didn't expect the eldest princess to be so powerful, she turned her hands into clouds and turned her hands into rain, and turned the unfavorable situation in Jinyang over in a blink of an eye." Li Wei shook his head and sighed,

"This Highness is a genius."

"So you're an idiot?" Li Hong laughed.

"I'm a bit of an idiot." Li Wei smiled bitterly,

"I lied to her too."

"After the preliminary proposal of the new official system came out, have you seen Cai Yong, Cui Lie and Liu He?"

"Nope." Li Wei said sympathetically,

"I guess they're sitting together and discussing what to do. Although the new official system looks decent, it is very difficult to implement it, and the resistance is even more astonishing. Since this official system completely subverts the old model, there is no experience to learn from, so if you are not careful, you will lose everything. You are not in Jinyang, the eldest princess has lost your support, it is difficult to predict whether this official reform can succeed. Li Hong nodded solemnly,

"Do you have a solution?"

"I'll do Shang Shuling." Li Wei said,

"Many of the officials in the Eldest Princess's Mansion are now serving in Shizhong Temple. After the addition of the middle secretary supervisor in the palace, many of the officials of the original Shangshutai are estimated to be transferred to the middle secretary by the eldest princess, so the Zhu Cao Shangshu, Shilang and others of Shangshutai will be reappointed. These candidates are very important, and they cannot all be officials in northern Xinjiang. We now have to take care of the outer dynasties to ease their hostility towards Shang Shutai, and at the same time take care of the eldest princess to gain her trust and support. Li Hong laughed,

"You dragged me here just for this little Shang Shuling?" Li Wei looked at Li Hong in surprise,

"General, don't underestimate this Shang Shuling, although it only participates in the decision-making of state affairs, its authority may be greater than that of the prime minister in the future." Li Hong smiled but did not speak.

After the eldest princess arrived at the general's mansion, she had a not sumptuous lunch feast with the general's family.

During the banquet, the eldest princess teased the general, saying that he was too stingy,

"The next time I give you a pick-up, I won't be so extravagant."

"Your Highness is a little extravagant, as it should be." Li Hong said with a smile,

"It's just that if Your Highness does any meaningless ceremonies and wastes the court's money, the minister will probably not dare to come back next time." The eldest princess pursed her lips and said very aggrievedly: "If you don't come back, I will go to you." Li Hong was startled and hurriedly shut up.

Fengxue and Xiaoyu hid their faces and snickered, making an excuse to leave with their two children.

"Can you not go?" The eldest princess asked with a red face. Li Hong shook his head.

"There is General Yan Wudaunt on the desert. Lord Xian Yu has already written to ask Ying to go to Youzhou to quell the rebellion, what are you going to do? ”

"I went to the desert for two things." Li Hong said after a little groaning,

"First, in order to stabilize the Hu tribes in the desert and quell the rebellion in Liaodong, but I don't want to use troops, so I want to go in person. After the Jizhou War, the soldiers needed to rest, the imperial court needed to recover, and this soldier could not come out. Second, I want to consider the attack on the Central Plains. After the defeat of Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and others, although they all suffered losses in strength. But after a long time, they will soon recover, so if we want to quickly pacify the world, we must attack the Central Plains immediately. This is also one of the reasons why we cannot send troops to quell the rebellion in Liaodong. The eldest princess was stunned for a moment, she obviously didn't expect the general to attack the Central Plains soon,

"When are you going to attack the Central Plains?"

"The spring of the year after." Li Hong said calmly,

"It's about a year and a half away."

"So fast?" The eldest princess frowned slightly, looking worried,

"Will the wealth of the imperial court be able to support this great war?"

"The system of dictating the fields and the new tax system have been in place for more than two years, and the results have been very good. If His Highness resolutely and quickly pursues the policy of land severance and leviing rent on households, then, in a year and a half, the imperial court should be able to afford this battle. The eldest princess lowered her head and thought for a long time, and when she raised her head, her expression had become very firm.

"Okay, let's spend a year and a half preparing for the Central Plains War."

"I need at least 200,000 troops, about 1.5 million people, and I need half a year's worth of food, grass and ordnance." Li Hong looked at the eldest princess and reported a series of numbers,

"The army in the east of the river will attack Guanzhong, Guanxi and Luoyang in the future, and it may also be necessary to go to the west to conquer, so the army in the east of the river cannot be recruited, so it is ......"

"You're going to the desert to transfer troops?" The eldest princess asked in surprise.

"The Hu tribes lived on the territory of the Han Dynasty, were protected by the Han army, and enjoyed the treatment of the Han people. They live in the desert safely and worry-free, all because of the gift of my Han. Li Hong said in a stern tone,

"When they were afflicted, the Han gave them alms, so that they could flee from the scourge of death; When they were attacked by the enemy, the Great Han Iron Cavalry fought bravely to protect their homes and pastures; Today, when the Han needs them, they should ride their horses, follow the Han banner, and fight bloodily. ”

"But ......"

"No, but." Li Hong waved his hand vigorously,

"Your Highness, after the implementation of the policy of soil breaking, all the Hu tribes in the desert who have returned to the Han will be incorporated into the household register, they are all the people of my Han, they are all the iron horses of my Han, and they will all shed their last drop of blood for the stability of the Han community." Under the sunset, the eldest princess held Li Hong's arm, snuggled up to Li Hong's side, and slowly walked on the bank of the Jinshui River in early autumn.

"It's beautiful here." The eldest princess looked intently at the red sunset, and said in a coquettish voice,

"The house I picked for you is good, right? There are mountains and rivers here, and you can enjoy such a beautiful view. How can there be such beauty in the palace? ”

"Since Your Highness likes it here, come and stay for a few days when you have time." The eldest princess's face turned red in an instant, and she was delicate.

Li Hong's heart trembled, and he hurriedly explained: "I mean, I'm not at home for a long time, you can ......" Then he immediately realized that his words were even more wrong, and even the titles between monarchs and ministers had changed,

"The minister lost his words, please ...... Your Highness"

"Okay, I'll just listen to you." Although the eldest princess was shy, she couldn't help but laugh when she saw Li Hong's frightened appearance,

"When I have time, I come over to spend time with my two sisters and see the two children. Since you don't want them to enter the palace often, then I have no choice but to lower my dignity and come to the door in person. Li Hong didn't want to say anything more, so he reached out and gently hugged the eldest princess into his arms.

"Do you still blame me?"

"No matter what Your Highness does, the minister will not complain about you."

"But I'm scared."

"General Lu Bu has been back in the past few days. The two generals, Zhao Yun and Yushi, have been ordered to be transferred back to Jinyang. General Yan Liang will definitely not be able to defeat Hanoi this month, and he and Tian Chou will soon return to Jinyang. In addition, after General Zhang Yan finished the Qingzhou incident, he would also rush back quickly. Although Lord Xian Yu is gone, Lord Xu Rong is still in the court. Li Hong leaned into the ear of the eldest princess and said softly,

"Even if I die, no one can hurt you. You can still take them to calm the world, Zhongxing Han. The eldest princess hugged Li Hong tightly, and tears quietly rolled down.

The next few days were very busy, and the eldest princess, the great general Li Hong, and the ministers gathered in Shangshutai to discuss the new official system all night.

The Shizhong Temple of the Inner Dynasty was responsible for announcing the decree and presenting the chapter. The East Temple and the West Temple were excluded from political affairs because they were both eunuchs.

The prefect of Shizhong Temple is to be in the middle. The Central Scribe of China and the DPRK was responsible for praising edicts, recording current affairs, and making documents.

The chief is the middle secretary and the middle secretary order. The Shangshutai of the Chinese Dynasty separated from the Shaofu and became an independent institution, consisting of Shangshu Ling, Shangshu left and right servants, and five Cao Shangshu, and twenty-five Shangshulang, but the functions and powers have not changed, and it is still the core body of central decision-making and ordering, responsible for uploading and issuing the world's chapters, writing the emperor's edicts, participating in national policy decisions, taking charge of the selection of court officials, hearing criminal and prison doubts, and presiding over prison affairs.

However, with the relocation of Shang Shutai, the eldest princess will definitely rely on the middle book supervisor, who will gradually become the core body of the central decision-making and giving orders.

This is something that can't be helped, the eldest princess can't often go out of the palace to Shangshutai to convene the ministers to discuss matters, she will only summon the ministers to the palace to discuss politics.

The Outer Dynasty was composed of the Prime Minister, Taiwei, the Three Princes of the Imperial History, the Taichang and other Jiuqing, the Zhijinwu and other Zhuqing, and the Sili Xiaowei, which was directly under the emperor's supervisory body.

At this point, the new official system was preliminarily agreed. The day before the great Sima general Li Hong left Jinyang, the eldest princess issued an edict in the name of the Son of Heaven to worship the court officials.

Bai Cai Yong is the prime minister, Xu Rong is the captain, and Liu He is the imperial doctor. Bai Xian Yufu was the general of the left guard to defend Youzhou.

Jiuqing has changed greatly. Cui Lie was turned to Taichang, Zhong Xuan as Dasi Nong, Zhang Yan as Guangluxun, Lu Bu as Wei Wei, and Zhao Yun as Zhijinwu.

Worship Yu Shi as the lieutenant of the school. The appointment of more than 30 officials in Shangshutai took a lot of painstaking work, and all forces wanted to arrange their own manpower.

Li Wei got his wish and sat in Shang Shuling's position. Zhang Fan and Cui Yan shot left and right for Shangshu.

Tian Chou, Sima Lang, Chen Gong, Chen Qun, and Yuan Jian were worshiped by the five Cao Shangshu. Xun You was worshiped as the secretary of the book, and Liu Fang was worshiped as the secretary of the order.

Sun Zi was worshipped. As it approached late autumn, the general Li Hong left Jinyang. The governors of the two provinces, Shi Jiaxu, Kema Fujian, Dong Zhao, who was recruited by the general to engage in Zhonglang, and Wei Yan, the chief bookkeeper, accompanied him to the desert.

Captain Mustafa of Changshui led 5,000 iron cavalry of the Changshui battalion, and Captain Hu Cavalry led 1,000 original Black Panthers to escort the general north.
