Chapter 182: The King's System (Part 1)
In July, the battle of Xijiang Province
After five years of melee, the situation in the whole world began to become clear.
In the Central Plains, the regime established by Gaomingtong was already shaky, and the arrogant soldiers and generals had actually occupied their own territory to separatist. Although Gaomingtong's eldest son Gao Yan was called emperor, he actually controlled only a few counties and counties near the imperial capital - this was the result that he had cleared the disaster in the capital before his death.
In the southern region, there was only one royal family king who was still proclaiming himself emperor and owned half of the province.
Other counties have their own separatist forces, but they cannot form forces that span several provinces. The only thing that is worth Fang Xin’s attention is that it is a branch of the rebel army.
Liu Yonghe, a mere team leader, raised an uprising six years ago. The following year, he defeated the officers and soldiers and occupied a county. In the third year, he annihilated the invading officers and soldiers. He then took advantage of the victory and occupied half of the province. In the first month of the fourth year, he established the Daping regime and was called the King of Ping, to show his intention to pacify the world.
In five years, it occupied the province, expanded its army by 200,000, and looked at the world. After years of combat, its army's combat effectiveness was quite impressive.
At this time, Fang Xin was named "Fan" and claimed to be the king. He did not send troops for the time being to complete the task of rectifying the military and political affairs of the five provinces.
For a time, most of the world entered a temporary state of peace.
Of course, this kind of peace is a false appearance. All the heroes in the world are training troops and garrisoning grain and preparing to fight the world.
Although Gao Yan occupied the most populous north, knowledgeable people know that this foundation is unstable and is not enough to seek the world. Therefore, the most eye-catching thing is naturally Li Rui, who unified the five provinces.
Li Rui was called queen and established a cabinet. The cabinet was divided into the left and right prime ministers, all of which were first-rank officials, and the second-rank officials were appointed as the chief officials and political affairs. The general was responsible for the main points. Shen Xuan was the first prime minister, and six ministries were established under the cabinet.
The six ministries were the third ranks, Zhang Zhuo was appointed as the Minister of Revenue, Zhang Hong was appointed as the Minister of Justice, Feng Shi was appointed as the Minister of War, Ji Du was appointed as the Minister of Personnel, and Yuan Cheng was appointed as the Minister of Works, and Peng Hanzhi was appointed as the Minister of Rites.
All six ministries were fulfilled, and many officials took advantage of this trend to become successful and jumped into the ranks of high-ranking officials.
As for the local organization, it is still necessary to continue the old system of Dachu, divided into three levels: province, county, county, county, county is third level, county is fifth level, and county is seventh level, all of which are orderly.
Although there were many talents in the original reserve, many of the newly promoted talents still felt that they were not experienced enough. However, there was no way to do so, so they had to slowly get started.
The martial arts lecture hall was officially incorporated into the system and was designated as a fifth-rank military academy.
Dongyan College was also collectively promoted to the Imperial Academy and was also a member of the fifth rank of the ranks. The Imperial Academy was a traditional ancient university. Its name began in the Western Zhou Dynasty and was established in the capital in the Han Dynasty. It had three thousand students. After hearing this news, not only did the students of the five provinces surrender, but even people from distant provinces also surrendered to the new dynasty.
The Department of Commerce also officially established the name of the Business Department to upgrade to the status of the five genuine products, and first directly subordinate to Fangxin.
After becoming king, He Yao was appointed as the queen. His eldest son Li Changjun was seventeen years old and the crown prince. He Rong was the concubine. His eldest daughter Li Xin was seventeen years old and was named Princess Shouning. His son Li Xiang was fourteen years old and was named Duke Anguo.
Lu Shulan was promoted to Concubine De, and his fourth son Li Jizhi, who was twelve years old, was named Duke Rong, and his second daughter Li Qingyi, who was also 17 years old, was named Princess Jiaping.
Lan Ji was promoted to the throne of the virtuous concubine, Li Ningwen, the eldest son of the concubine, was now nineteen years old, and was named Duke of Wei. He formally ordered the order to be the chief of Jinsha. His third daughter, Li Mi, was eleven years old, and was named Princess Jingning.
He was appointed as the queen mother and posthumously conferred the title of the former kings of three generations to enter the ancestral temple.
At the same time, there was an unintentional order that He Bing appointed as the lord of Yunmeng County.
The treatment of the four concubines belongs to the inner court. Let’s not talk about it. Those who have won the title will first be awarded titles and land. In this regard, according to the system of the Great Chu, we will slightly improve.
The Duke of the State is of course a duke, equal to the second rank, with 250 people, and can be awarded twenty-five fire chiefs, five team chiefs, and one camp chief (Xuanjie Clerk, eighth rank), and has 10,000 acres of hereditary land.
The princess is the same as the marquis, and is equivalent to the third rank. He has a hundred personal soldiers, and can be awarded ten fire chiefs, four chiefs and deputy chiefs, and has 5,000 acres of hereditary land.
The county lord and the count are equal to the fourth rank, fifty people, and can be awarded five fire chiefs, one chief and deputy, and own two thousand acres of hereditary land.
And the following
The Baron is equal to the sixth rank, and can have an army of ten people and five hundred acres of hereditary land.
Viscount is equal to the fifth rank, with thirty soldiers, and one thousand acres of hereditary land
Although these people only enfeoffed the Li family first, they ordered the order and said, "The title is the reward of the heroes, and so on, no matter inside or outside!"
In other words, the heroes will be awarded titles in the future, and everyone will cheer for a while.
In a quiet state, Xiao Bing received two thousand acres of land and opened the county magistrate's office to control the actions of the business department.
In fact, the most attractive thing is the teaching in the Imperial Academy. The second edition of the Six Books of Li, which has been revised and enriched by many people, has been continuously improved. It has changed from a thin 50,000-word to a thick systematic book of 150,000-word, and has officially become the main course of the Imperial Academy.
This also standardizes the Six Books of Li, which, with the support of powerful royal power, began to enter the competition stage of mainstream social thoughts. Although the world is chaotic, this still quickly led to the debate on who is the orthodox Confucianism and attracted the attention of countless people.
And at this moment, Fang Xin was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief, because the system's bureaucracy had already allowed the lord to get rid of many trivial things.
It was mid-November, and the capital was set in Rensha City, Xijiang, and it was changed to the palace of the imperial envoy.
Fang Xin got up at this time and found that the morning sun was born. Fang Xin was in a good mood and walked in the garden. Although in mid-November, the fallen leaves in the garden had not yet completely fallen. He saw several daughters in a courtyard.
Princess Shouning Li Xin and Princess Jiaping Li Qingyi, both girls are wearing gorgeous palace skirts, but there is a clear difference
Princess Li Qingyi of Jiaping, although her face was full of elegant and quiet expression and her exposed skin was as frosty as snow, she was still a very normal elegant girl. Princess Li Xin of Shouning sat there. Although her dress reflected the sun's light and shadow, and her figure was extremely moving, but this ethereal and condensed breath... made Fang Xin frown slightly. She was really a rare genius, with a faint meaning of breaking to the third level.
As for the third daughter, Princess Jingning, Li Mi, who is only eleven years old this year, she is struggling to run with a dog. When she notices, she turns out to be a castrated dog, but her bloodline is really bad. She is a country dog, which makes her sweat all over her body.
Seeing this smile, Fang Xin smiled and walked over directly.
"Father!" The three daughters all stood up and saluted.
"No need to be polite." Fang Xin said calmly, sat down in the pavilion, and asked his daughters to sit down and chat with him slowly. Since Fang Xin has always been gentle to his children, the sense of seclusion of becoming king quickly disappeared.
The imperial families in China have treated the princes in similar ways, but from a selfish point of view, Fang Xin decided to adopt the leadership of the Li Tang and Song dynasties for the education of the princess.
Princess of the Song Dynasty were well-educated, polite, gentle and virtuous, so he was the first. However, Princess Li Tang was relatively free, and as long as she did not interfere in politics, it was very consistent with Fang Xin's belief. The princess of her own will naturally try to get rid of many traces of princesses with miserable fate in history.
The key is actually leaving the palace, which is legally customized by the clan. Except for the prince (the prince) living in the Eastern Palace, the other sons of the prince must leave the palace to build a house at the age of fourteen, and the daughter is no exception. After the age of fourteen, they will have independent mansions, fields, servants, and even family soldiers. This is undoubtedly the beginning of controlling their destiny.
However, in terms of children, it was not as good as Fang Xin's intention. Li Qingyi was born with a smart and cheerful nature, gentle and humble nature, and was very popular with Fang Xin. However, the man she secretly agreed to - Lu Ming, was really a bit stubborn, and the Lu Hou family was also a problem.
As for Princess Li Xin of Shouning, Fang Xin was even more concerned, but Zhang Feng had already climbed to the position of deputy lieutenant of the eighth-rank Xuanjie, and he was also in the second-rank fourth-rank deputy general Zhaowu.
The eldest son of the sacred son, Li Ningwen, is now nineteen years old and is named Duke of Wei. He ordered the order to be the chief of Jinsha. He is already married. His wife is the daughter of a fifth-rank official.
The eldest son Li Changjun, who is seventeen years old, is the prince, and he must get married this year or next year. Many ministers, even the Queen Mother He, have mentioned it several times.
After thinking about it, Fang Xin suddenly decided to hold a big banquet on the occasion of the New Year to invite all the ministers and children to participate, which is in line with tradition.
In the New Year, the night ban is open, and the king entertains all ministers. Ladies with imperial rank can participate, and their descendants can also pay their birthdays. Perhaps there are many young talents in it - they cannot pay their respects to the eighth rank, so it is better to give meritorious ministers.
Among such talented young people, if they still choose this way, as parents, there is nothing they can do. Fang Xin thought sadly.
After saying some more words, someone stepped forward and knelt down: "The king, Prime Minister of the Cabinet, Lord Shen, Minister of Revenue, Zhang Zhuo, Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, Yuan Cheng, Minister of Works, asked for a visit."
Fang Xin already knew about the matter of the money method and the salt method.
This is actually part of the legal system. Although he is king now, Fang Xin has no time to amend the law. Therefore, most of the laws continue the laws of the Great Chu, and then take breakthroughs in some aspects. The money law and the salt law are the major events. At that moment, he said a few words to his daughters, then got up and left, and he could not discuss matters here until he went to the imperial study room, the cabinet and the six ministers.
Fang Xin walked along a pool of water rockery and crossed a living water corridor. He saw that there were old trees that had been around for decades, and they could be surrounded by thick trees until the end of the corridor. A main hall appeared on the floor of the floor with fragrant wood, and the whole pavilion was open.
It was afternoon, and the sun was shining. Fang Xin stepped up the steps and entered the outer hall. He said, "Summon, enter the inner room."
After a while, the three of them entered the hall and entered the door. The three of them immediately bowed down and knelt down.
Chapter completed!
