On the second day after Feng Zhou took control of Lin'an, Xin Qiji led 50,000 cavalry and rushed to Lin'an. With him, Zuo Pushe Yu Yunwen, the minister of the Song Dynasty, came with him.
When Yu Yunwen and Feng Zhou first met two years ago, he was just a small secretary-general. Unexpectedly, just over two years later, he would become the left prime minister of the Song Dynasty. For a time, he felt like he was in another world.
But he doesn't feel inferior, nor is he timid, and he doesn't feel like he's walking on thin ice.
Because after many years of officialdom experience, the baptism of the Quarry War, and the Jiankang City Massacre, he has been reborn and determined, and is strong enough to serve as the prime minister of a country.
In the afternoon, the main force led by Wang Chongyang also arrived, and on the same day all the defenders in eastern Zhejiang issued statements supporting Feng Zhou and Yang Cunzhong.
At this point, the overall situation has been decided, and no one can make waves.
Civil servants everywhere fell into a state of panic and silence.
Especially where there are garrisons.
According to the notices sent to various places by Fengzhou, it was claimed that civil servants were the source of trouble for the country. Any local government officials who opposed the Lin'an court at this time must be closely related to Qin Hui and the Wanqi Group and could be killed directly.
So the civil servants who always boasted that they "keep their hands up and talk about their hearts in peacetime, and repay the king with death in times of crisis" collectively fell silent.
The political structure of the Song Dynasty was also roughly formed.
Zhengshuo is still the Song Dynasty in the world. The capital of the Song Dynasty is located in Lin'an. It is too troublesome to move back to Bianliang, so don't move.
The central court had Yu Yunwen and Zhao Kui as the prime ministers, and they selected officials. However, all officials, big and small, who were related to the forty-two war criminals must be eliminated.
However, the central court actually occupied only nine counties in Lin'an Prefecture.
Although according to relevant agreements, various state governments will definitely pay a certain amount of taxes to the central government, but they will also be intercepted by Fengzhou. Therefore, the central court has carried out the largest scale of streamlining, and all those inexplicable official positions have been removed, leaving no one behind.
Of course, mainly with the help of Fengzhou's prison, all the backbones of the central court were cleaned up. In the end, the central court became one with Tong Zhongshu's subordinate Ping Zhangshi plus six ministers, plus the censor Zhongcheng and the minister of Dali Temple, and their respective
subordinate officials.
The officials of Lin'an City have truly become civil and military officials.
Quantitatively it matches!
The most prosperous and fertile areas in the Jianghuai area were under Fengzhou's control.
Feng Zhou did not hold any position in the central government. In order to distinguish himself from those governors, he ordered the Song Dynasty court to create a king himself.
Originally, his power was mainly concentrated in Jianghuai and he could be named King of Wu.
In addition, if he regains Yanyun, he can also be named King of Yan.
But he didn't agree.
These two kings were so powerful that they could accomplish great things if they were not careful, and could easily influence Zuo of the Song Dynasty, so he named himself King Ning.
King Ning is good, but he is not successful enough.
Wang Chongyang, Xin Qiji, Pang Yong and others who were trained by themselves were given the position of governor on their own territory.
Other places were quickly arranged.
The Sichuan-Shaanxi area was under the control of Sichuan Governor Wu, with Yang Zheng and Wang Sheng as assistants.
Because of Pang Yong's relationship, Wang Sheng was in charge of the Guanzhong area. Unfortunately, he did not have enough qualifications, power and prestige, so he could only serve as the pacifier of Guanzhong.
Cheng Min was appointed governor of Jingbei.
Li Bao was the governor of Jingnan.
Lin Xi is the governor of Shandong
Yang Cunzhong served as governor of Shanxi.
Li Xianzhong served as governor of Hebei.
Li Xianzhong was a party member, loyal to the Song Dynasty, and had an unforgettable hatred for the Jin people. He was talented enough, and he happened to cooperate with Lin Xi, the naval commander, to attack the Jurchen Jin people in a land and water attack.
Because Feng Zhou had negotiated with them before, these military leaders could not only fight for life and death in their own territory, but also decide to go on foreign expeditions, because only in foreign campaigns and with victory can the tax amount of their own territory be increased.
If there is no war, local taxes will be converted into national taxes and will be controlled by Feng Zhou.
In short, the change of power in the Song Dynasty was completed easily and simply. When the new year came, the eleven-year-old emperor Zhao Chun accepted the worship of hundreds of officials in Daqing Hall.
Ning Wang Fengzhou established the shogunate in Jiankang Mansion and did not participate in the central affairs.
Jiankang Mansion was also renamed Jinling.
Historically known as the Jinling Shogunate.
At this time, the central court had finished handling the cases of the forty-two war criminals.
All forty-two officials were beheaded and their homes confiscated, and their families were exiled overseas.
According to the order of King Ning Fengzhou, the Song Dynasty court built a temple for Yue Fei on the bank of the West Lake, and cast kneeling statues of Zhao Gou, Qin Hui and other five people in front of the temple.
In fact, the Song Dynasty court went through a series of severe purges, beheading, ransacking homes, ransacking homes, and exiles. In short, in order for justice and the law to be upheld, they would rather kill three thousand people by mistake than let one person go.
In the end, 100 million yuan of money was extracted from these officials.
Feng Zhou only paid 80 million to allow himself to surpass Li Zongmin, and let others share the rest.
The Song Dynasty entered the era of Prince Ning and the Shogunate.
An era full of dreams.
With this 80 million yuan, Feng Zhou could do too many things.
He began to reorganize the Quanzhen sect's classics.
Many things that inspire wisdom have been added to it, as well as a lot of science and engineering content.
At the same time, Xin Qiji was sent to publish an article. As the "Grand Master of Quanzhen Taoism", he vigorously criticized Zhu Xi's Neo-Confucianism. Not only did he criticize Zhu Xi's character and morality as a mess, but he also defined his Neo-Confucianism as "the learning of twilight".
Fengzhou also promptly promoted a series of policies that benefit the country and the people, emancipate the mind, and promote the development of productive forces.
Any family that believed in Neo-Confucianism levied a high tax, with the standard being a hundred times the land tax.
As more and more scholars read the classics of Quanzhen Taoism and began to believe in Quanzhen Taoism, the study of things in it also began to enlighten the wisdom of others.
And with the policies implemented by Fengzhou, farmers, handicraftsmen, and businessmen all received various benefits, and their wallets began to bulge.
Feng Zhou also began to be respected by more and more people.
According to rough statistics from Feng Zhou's staff, at least 20 to 30 million people have developed a sense of reverence for Feng Zhou. And the number of ordinary people who believe in and join the Quanzhen Sect has reached 500,000.
Feng Zhou felt that his meridians were filled with massive power of faith every day. These were pure powers of merit, constantly washing away the essence and marrow, and reborn.
In terms of spiritual energy alone, he has already passed through the stages of refining essence to transform qi, refining qi to transform into spirit, and refining spirit to return to emptiness. He has reached the combined stage of refining emptiness and joining the path, and he is almost the first person below the saint.
It's just that time has passed, and one's own bones, experience, character, and magic power have not yet been cultivated, so that one's own strength is still in the innate stage of refining and refining qi.
According to his own estimation, it would take twenty years to completely transform this massive amount of merit into his own foundation.
Twenty years is enough for him.
Of course, not everyone has praised and revered him in the past twenty years.
Many people are cursing this shameless reincarnation of Dong Zhuo, Cao Cao, Zhu Wen...
Those officials who were laid off.
The super landowners who had their land confiscated.
Those Neo-Confucian families who had no students, no one cared about them, and suffered high taxes.
In their view, this era is simply dark, and the living Cao Cao's various perverse actions deserve the indignation of both humans and gods.
In the Song Dynasty, the emperor and scholar-bureaucrats jointly ruled the world.
But look at it, it has now become the domain of military and political governors everywhere.
Whether it is the emperor or the scholar-bureaucrat, how can there be any dignity at all?
The ancestors of the Song Dynasty, please strike him to death with a thunderbolt!
When they were cursing, they actually knew very well that the person who was best at using thunder techniques in the Song Dynasty was King Ning Fengzhou of the Song Dynasty.
When they were madly cursing Feng Zhou, they didn't know that someone was really scolding him for world affairs.
"Master Daoji, aren't you busy playing hide-and-seek with the Master of Qiankun Cave and the Dapeng Bird? How come you have time to come to me?"
Looking at Jigong who looked anxious, Feng Zhou felt very strange.
It sounds like Jigong is very unhappy now.
Because of Feng Zhou, a large number of magicians had room to display their talents under Feng Zhou. Jigong rarely had time to display his magical powers.
He can only stay in the private area of Buddhism and fight with the Lord of Qiankun Cave, Dapeng Bird and others, using each other as their own whetstone.
"Master Qiankun Cave, who are the Dapeng Birds? If it weren't for the purpose of training the spiritual beads, Fat and Skinny Fairy Boy, I would have gotten rid of them long ago. Monk, I came to you this time to tell you that you created
What a shame!" Jigong said, shaking his fan angrily.
"Master Daoji, you can eat meat as much as you want, drink wine as much as you want, but you can't talk nonsense! What evil have I done to make you, a Buddhist arhat, so angry?" Feng Zhou didn't care.
"You're still quibbling! When you fought the Black Rakshasa, you didn't seal him back to the underworld, but killed him directly. No one in the underworld can suppress the demons and ghosts anymore. Now they have broken through the underworld and are causing havoc in the underworld.
Come on!" Jigong shouted.
"This is happening!" Feng Zhou frowned, realizing a big crisis.
