The portable magic tower of the Three Kingdoms

Then you need to advance slowly, after all, everyone has a lot of soldiers and generals in their hands.

The other thing is talent. In the early Tang Dynasty, few counties were intact, so naturally there was no need for so many officials, just take your time; but almost all the establishments here are complete, which means that there are many officials needed.

But in this era, the aristocratic family with the largest proportion of officials is not a bird. Most of the latter are displeased with him, so the lack of officials has become very prominent.

Sure enough, for the fight for world hegemony, it is still necessary to adapt to local conditions, otherwise it is easy to get acclimatized.

Just say that he wants to change three or five counties into counties, then two or three counties into one state, and then two or three states into one prefecture, which sounds very meaningful, and it really makes sense!

The result of this rectification of the problem is that a lot of eunuchs, governors, and even prefects have been vacated...

"If the exam is in advance, maybe it can be organized this year?" Liu Tao thought for a while, and felt that the exam could be in advance to select a group of talents for use.

"It's half a year early, so some people probably aren't ready." Xun Yu replied, after all, he didn't have much homework, and most of them relied on self-study. Fortunately, there is a sentence to read, so that they don't even fail to understand the meaning of the scriptures.

Basically, one time is not enough, read it several times, and you can probably know the content recorded in the book.

"It's nothing. If you fail the exam this time, you can take the exam in three years." Liu Tao said indifferently. Anyway, it doesn't matter if you pass the exam before the age of 40.The maximum age limit for future generations is 35 years old, which can be relaxed to 40 years old here.

What age is a university knowledgeable, not used to it!What you want is fresh and young blood, and the main thing is to be obedient!

Xun Yu nodded and went down to make arrangements.It wasn't until this time that Liu Tao thought of it: Why is no one persuading me to become king? !

Chapter 479 Why do you want to be the emperor

Back at the mansion, I got closer to my family, and took a look at the two children who were already able to run and jump.

In the end, Cai Yan took Liu Tao back to the bedroom under the pretext that Liu Tao was exhausted both physically and mentally, and took off his armor himself.

During this period, Liu Tao had to complain about the attitude of the civil servants, but when Cai Yan heard the words, he laughed in a low voice: "Hehe...it's not surprising."

"Huh?" Liu Tao couldn't figure it out. Could it be that one or two don't expect him to be king?

In history, Cao Cao became king. After Liu Bei and Sun Quan got the news, they were all encouraged by their subordinates, and it didn't take long for them to become king halfway.How did he get here, is it not surprising that he is not king?

"Being king is already an inevitable result, and the rest is nothing more than preparing the ceremony for your husband to be king, and choosing an auspicious day by the way, and formally becoming king." Cai Yan laughed.

"Is it inevitable that I become king? Don't tell me I'm not allowed to be king?" Liu Tao said angrily.

"During this period of time, many people in the world have become kings." Cai Yan sighed after hearing the words, "It is said that Liu Yu was called King Yan at the instigation of his son; there is King Zhao in Jizhou; the original King of Beihai has been promoted to King Qi; The king was supported by Tao Qian and others as King Xu."

After a pause, he continued: "Liu Yan was called the King of Shu in Yizhou. It is said that he originally planned to call him the King of Han, but was persuaded by his subordinates and changed it to the King of Shu; the Kingdom of Chen merged with the Kingdom of Liang, and King Chen was renamed King of Han; Dai proclaimed himself King of Wei in Yanzhou; Liu Biao also proclaimed himself King of Chu under the recommendation of Sun Jian and others."

"The King of Pei, Liu Yao, couldn't be changed to the King of Xu because Liu Biao called him the King of Chu first, right?" Liu Tao obviously noticed one of the conspicuous problems.

"Hey, maybe it's still like this..." Cai Yan replied with a faint smile and nodded.

In fact, as long as King Xu continues to go south and beat down the two counties of Jiujiang and Lujiang, it is not a big problem to say that it is a King Wu.Speaking of which, Xu State established in the Western Zhou Dynasty was later destroyed by Wu State.

"Okay! Now I know, one or two have become kings, and if I don't become kings, I've made them weaker!" Liu Tao sighed, no wonder he didn't mention it, it didn't need to be mentioned at all, it has become the norm to be king .

"It's mainly Zhao Wang, or Yuan Shao is too eager. According to the news from the Zhen family, he used the name of the first to enter Luoyang to proclaim himself emperor, and he has already begun to persuade Zhao Wang to become emperor. It's just that Zhao Wang didn't pass on the jade seal of the country. The position is not correct' as an excuse to delay it for the time being." Cai Yan replied, "It's just that it can't be delayed for much time..."

"The Chuan Guo Yuxi is in my hands, it's just that this group of guys who can't wait, as long as they are willing, there will be countless Chuan Guo Yuxi." Liu Tao said disdainfully.

"Your husband is right. The jade seal passed down to the country is extremely precious because it is admired by others. Its value lies in the 'orthodoxy' recognized by the world, not the jade seal itself." Cai Yan nodded.

If people recognize its legitimacy, then the Chuanguo Yuxi is true, and if they don't, it is a fake.Conversely, even if it is a fake jade seal, as long as everyone agrees that it is real, then it must be real.

The Qing Dynasty played this method very well, using a so-called "Jade Seal of Chuanguo" to highlight its orthodoxy.It also gave those soft bones an excuse to surrender.

When they surrendered, they naturally wanted to tout the 'authenticity' of this jade seal, so this jade seal became the real Jade Seal passed down to the country.Later, no one even cared about whether the jade seal was really passed on to the country.

That is to say, even if Liu Tao has the real Jade Seal of Heirloom in his hands, no one will recognize it or pay for it.So naturally, this is the 'fake' Chuanguo Yuxi.

If he dares to take it out, there will be countless so-called 'Jade Seals of the Nation' in the world.Someone even carved a jade seal with a piece of stone, and dared to call it the Jade Seal of Chuanguo.

So King Zhao can't hold on for long, Yuan Shao can produce countless Jade Seals at any time if needed.

"You said, shouldn't I let Yuan Shao go to Luoyang first?" Liu Tao thought for a while and tried to ask.

"No, no, this is just right, let them proclaim themselves emperors, let them be Zen. Let the world be more chaotic, so that the husband can rule the world more smoothly." Cai Yan shook his head and said slowly.

"I remember you said before that you would rather I not be the emperor, but only want me to be by your side..." Liu Tao looked at Cai Yan curiously after hearing this, and then tried to ask a question.

"The general situation is like this, and it's no longer my daughter's family to take care of it." Cai Yan sighed, and looked at Liu Tao resentfully, "At this point, the husband can't help himself. If you don't go up, the civil and military officials below will definitely Feeling dissatisfied. Besides, only by unifying the world as soon as possible can more people avoid the end of family ruin and homelessness."

"I didn't expect my princess to see it so clearly." Liu Tao laughed.If he becomes the king, then Cai Yan, who is the main wife, is naturally the princess.

"If I were to choose, then of course I would rather stay with my husband forever, find a safe place where no one will be disturbed, and live in peace and stability." Cai Yan shook his head, "It's only in a troubled world, where is it safe? Husband With today's status, there is no room for retreat, as a wife, I can only silently support my husband."

"It's true..." Liu Tao felt a little emotional, and unconsciously came to this position.Looking back, I found that I didn't even have a way out.

The higher you stand, the more people behind you will covet your position.Only when you come to this height, see the scenery here, and turn your head, can you see those existences that are staring at you.

There can be a thousand county magistrates, and hundreds of sheriffs, but there are only thirteen prefectural governors, 12 officials in total, and only one emperor. Behind these people are tens of millions of people.

Let’s just say that in future generations, with a population of more than one billion, only one or two people can go up to those high positions.That is naturally a radish and a pit. If you want to go up, you have to pull down the top one. The degree of competition is probably unimaginable in this era.

It was precisely because of that era that Liu Tao knew that even if he became king, there would still be countless people coveting his position, even becoming emperor.

Being king is just the beginning, but it is definitely not the end. Why is the emperor for life, the throne can only be passed on to the prince after death.

It's not that he is reluctant to bear power, most excellent emperors feel that being an emperor is too hard, too much work needs to be done, and there is no enjoyment at all. If you want this position, you can give it to any prince who doesn't want it!

No, don't worry!What if the wrong heir is chosen, and the country that has been built so hard is usurped by others in the generation of the son or grandson?Especially the change of dynasties often means that the direct royal families of the previous dynasties will not be spared!

"As far as the emperor is concerned, I don't know why others are vying to be the emperor..." Liu Tao teased.

The only motivation to support him to move forward to this position is the dream of a strong country that every flower grower's rabbit has!

Only by becoming an emperor can one become the helm of this country and this nation, leading them to sail in the right direction.Let this group of still ignorant rabbits enter a bigger and wider new world, and have a direction in which they can work tirelessly!

Chapter 480

Being an emperor is easy and fun, but being a good emperor is very difficult.

It's just that as long as you become an emperor, this country can operate according to your own wishes, without slow compromise, without being careful about the monarch's fear, and without worrying about supplies.

After returning for three days, Liu Tao went through the information from various places while dealing with daily affairs.Even if there is a certain information lag, it is always necessary to understand the changes in the world's situation.

On Sun Jian's side, on the way back, he was indeed ambushed by Liu Biao, more precisely Huang Zu.Maybe it was because of the reminder, but at any rate, he returned to Changsha smoothly, and immediately sent troops to attack Huang Zu.

In the end Liu Biao came forward to mediate, and Huang Zu paid a lot of money to save his own life.

"Speaking of which, doesn't Huang Zu belong to Jiangxia's Huang family?" Liu Tao thought for a while, then looked at the several consultants beside him, and after all, they were Guo Jia and Chen Gong.

Xun You was taken by his unscrupulous uncle to be a strong man to help with work.Liu Tao had previously proposed the establishment of a military law department. In the future, military law violations would be directly handed over to the military law department. It happens that Xun You is good at the rule of law, so naturally he will not be let go.
