Three Kingdoms: The rebellious son of the Cao family married the queen at the beginning

"Gongda, Luoyang's military affairs will be handled by you!"

Xun You said calmly, "Thank you, my lord, for your trust."

Cao Shuo left Xu Rong and Han Hao to assist Xun You, and led three thousand tiger guards back to Xindu, Jizhou.

Upon receiving the news that Cao Shuo had returned to Jizhou, all the civil and military officials under his command came to the prefect's mansion.

Ju Yi asked: "Master, why are you so eager to return to Xindu?"

Cao Shuo glanced at Xun Yu in surprise, he didn't tell anyone else about it, was he worried that he would blame him?

Xun Yu stood up and said: "The Han Dynasty no longer exists. The princes of the world have proclaimed themselves kings and emperors, but the lord is indifferent. This is really inconsistent with the lord's achievements!"

Ju Shou said: "Under the governance of our lord, our Jizhou has surpassed other state capitals of the Han Dynasty and has become the largest state of the Han Dynasty. What face do other princes have to rush to proclaim the emperor before our lord?"

Zhen Yan said: "My Zhen family has been in Jizhou for a hundred years, and I have never seen a governor of the state. With such achievements, the living standards of the people in Jizhou have been more than doubled compared with before the Lord came. Ten times, dare to ask which state capital in the world can be as rich as our Jizhou."

Zhao Fu said: "I have served four state shepherds in Jizhou, and I have never seen such a good lord who loves the people like a son, treats the virtuous and corporal, and is considerate of the soldiers. All the state shepherds in the past are for the purpose of seeking the people's fat and anointing."

When Juyi heard it, the good guy bullied our generals, didn't he react slowly?Isn't it just to persuade the lord to become emperor, who wouldn't,
"I, Jizhou, has a strong army and a strong horse. I rank second among the princes. No one dares to rank first. Now that the Han Dynasty has collapsed, all heroes have risen together. The people of the world are waiting for the rain, waiting for a wise king like my lord to save me. My lord will take the throne of the world." The emperor, following the example of Qin Shihuang, swept the six countries and unified China."

In the hall, dozens of ministers expressed their opinions, but in the end they all persuaded Cao Shuo to proclaim himself emperor.

Cao Shuo saw that no one objected, so he said: "At present, our army has not reached the land of three states, so it is too early to be called emperor. I think we should be called emperor first, and we will be called emperor after our army has conquered six states."

After everyone's discussion, it is most appropriate to be promoted from Marquis of Wei to King of Wei.

Xun Yu suggested: "At the moment when Luoyang is being rebuilt, it is most appropriate to set the capital in Luoyang. Let all the civil and military officials of Jizhou and the people of Li participate in it. This will not only reduce our army's expenditure, but also improve the popularity of the people."

Cao Shuo asked puzzledly, "Throughout the dynasties and dynasties, civil engineering was built extensively, and the common people suffered unspeakably. Why did Wen Ruo say that this move would improve the popularity of the people?"

Xun Yu explained: "The construction of the capital city is different from other buildings. The people of Jizhou are all grateful to the Lord. If they are allowed to donate money to build their own capital city, they will be very happy."

Cao Shuo thought about it for a while. If the control is not good, it is very possible to stir up civil uprisings. It must be supervised by a very trustworthy person.

"Since Wen Ruo suggested to do this, Wen Ruo will be responsible for this matter, and no materials shall be forcibly confiscated. Everything is in the interests of the people."

"promise!"

"At present, our army is fighting everywhere, and most of the generals are away. After our army stabilizes, I will discuss the reform of the control system with the ministers."

"promise!"

Ju Shou suggested: "Your Majesty, Jizhou and Youzhou, Sili, and some prefectures in Yanzhou follow the system of the previous dynasty. Now that the Han Dynasty is dead, the kingdom should be abolished and the county system changed."

Cao Shuo said: "Then abolish all kingdoms and dependent states, and change them to county systems!"

Xun Chen suggested: "My lord will become king of Wei, who should act as the governor of Jizhou?"

Cao Shuo looked at the ministers under his command, and found that Xun Yu was the more suitable one, "Wen Ruo, I named you Jizhou Shepherd, in charge of Jizhou's government affairs."

"promise!"

Although Xun Yu was puzzled as to why it was Jizhou's government affairs, he would not ask this question, presumably the lord must have other intentions.

"If Wen doesn't need to think too much, I'll explain it to you later."

Xun Yu nodded, and Cao Shuo continued, "All the official positions in the country are vacant, and I will make arrangements after I think of a good candidate."

Cao Shuo left behind Xun Yu, Xun Chen, Zhen Yan, Ju Shou, Shen Pei, Ju Yi, Xin Pi, and Zhao Gai, and the others asked them to go back first, and after he had discussed with them, he called everyone to discuss the matter. .

"I have an idea in my heart. I want to overthrow the bureaucratic system of the Han Dynasty and plan a new system. The bureaucratic system of the Han Dynasty is too chaotic, and the power of the princes is getting bigger and bigger!"

Xun Yu asked, "Did King Wei think about it?"

"I only have a rough idea in my mind, and I need you to perfect it."

Several people said in unison: "Please show me, King Wei!"

Cao Shuo thought for a while and said, "I came up with a very well-organized official system called Three Provinces and Six Ministries!"

"Three provinces and six ministries?" Everyone looked at Cao Shuo suspiciously, hoping he could explain.

"The three provinces are Zhongshu Province, Menxia Province, and Shangshu Province. The six departments are under the jurisdiction of Shangshu Province, which are divided into the Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of Households, the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Punishment, and the Ministry of Industry."

"The Zhongshu Province is in charge of the decision-making of orders, issuing edicts, court orders, etc., assisting me in handling government affairs, and setting up a Zhongshu Ling as the general leader of Zhongshu Sheng."

"Menxia Province is responsible for reviewing edicts, signing chapters, having the right to deny and refute, and the right to review decisions and decisions. There is a chief minister, Zhongshu Province."

"Shang Shu Sheng is responsible for the implementation of important laws and regulations, and there is a Shang Shu Ling who is in charge of Shang Shu Sheng."

Xun Yu asked, "Who is in charge of the army?"

"Of course, the Minister of the Ministry of War is in charge, but all military transfers need to be approved by me."

Xun Yu nodded. He thought that the Ministry of War could directly mobilize the army. In that case, it was inevitable that some people with ideas would want to seize power.

Ju Shou said, "Your Majesty, what are the six departments in charge of?"

"The Ministry of Officials is responsible for the appointment and removal, examination, promotion, transfer and other affairs of officials!"

"The Ministry of Households is responsible for territory, fields, household registration, taxes, salaries and all financial matters!"

"The Ministry of Rites manages education, etiquette, and diplomacy!"

"The Ministry of War is in charge of the selection of military officers, military status, ordnance, and military orders!"

"The Ministry of Punishments is in charge of judicial prisons!"

"The Ministry of Industry is in charge of construction projects!"

"I just have a general idea of ​​these. You should study carefully and break it down."

Everyone sighed: "My lord's ability, I can't wait for it to happen."

The big frame is set up for them, and the details are done by them, there is no problem at all.

Cao Shuo thought to himself that although the system of three provinces and six ministries is a bit ahead of them, it still has many loopholes.

The Ming Dynasty abolished the three provinces, and the six ministries were directly responsible to the emperor. The same is true in the Qing Dynasty, and the Ministry of War exists in name only. It is recommended that the Kings and Ministers Meeting, the South Study Room, and the Military Aircraft Department.

But Cao Shuo doesn't want to make it too complicated right now, and will carry out thorough reforms after the world is pacified in the future.
