When Chu Xisheng returned to Wuxiang Shenzong by boat, Chu Yunyun just broke out of the attic.
Chu Yunyun couldn't help but squint her eyes when she saw him park the sun-bathing boat in front of Tianlanju and stand on the boat as if nothing had happened.
This guy traveled nearly 200,000 miles back and forth in three hours just to see that woman. He was really affectionate.
She secretly snorted, but didn't bother to reveal it, and walked directly to the boat.
"Where are Sect Leader Luo and Mr. Feng?"
Sect Leader Luo naturally refers to the 'Great Master of the Stars' Luohan Sect.
These two people had previously made a reservation to go south with them to attend the founding ceremony in Xiushui County.
"Sect Master Luo has his own flying magic weapon."
Chu Xisheng touched the bridge of his nose: "Mr. Feng got impatient with waiting, so he got on Sect Master Luo's boat and left together."
The truth is that they heard that Chu Xisheng ran to Li Tan Cave alone when he was about to set off, so the two of them set off first.
At this time, Taiweiyuan was already experiencing signs of revitalization.
The Luohan Sect recruited more than 7,000 talented disciples and placed them in Taiwei Yuan to train and teach them.
Therefore, the artifact in his hand, the 'Zhou Tian Xing Dou Zhou Compact Disc', was no longer carried with him and could only be suppressed in Taiwei Cloud to prevent external evil.
The Luohan Sect's daily transportation weapon has been replaced by a 'Ziwu Star Light Shuttle'.
Compared with Chu Xisheng's 'Sun-bathing Shenzhou', it is just like the old man's current sports car.
However, Mad Sword Feng San would rather take the Arhat Sect's much slower flying magic weapon than go with them.
"I see!"
Chu Yunyun didn't ask any more questions and sat down directly on the bow of the boat: "Then let's set off too. Don't keep those people in Xiushui County waiting."
Just when Chu Xisheng was gradually accelerating on the Sun-Bathering Divine Boat and flying out of the Wuxiang Mountain, Chu Yunyun talked about the wishing stone again: "That natal artifact of yours is indeed magical. I have experienced it for three days, and the effect is unparalleled. , it is simply a first-class miracle. But it is too wasteful for you to use it like this. Using a wishing stone to strengthen your understanding and wisdom for ten days is the most cost-effective way."
Chu Xisheng nodded.
He had already figured out the best way to use the wishing stone.
The problem is that what he lacks now is time, and many times he cannot take cost-effectiveness into consideration.
Chu Yunyun continued: "Also, don't use the wishing technique on me in the future. I don't need it for the time being. If I need to use the wishing stone, I will come to you. Your natal artifact can help me break through some bottlenecks."
"Why?" Chu Xisheng asked in confusion: "Isn't it good to improve your understanding and spiritual intelligence?"
"What I lack now is not understanding."
Chu Yunyun shook her head and looked down at her body with some annoyance: "What I lack now is practice time. Even if I study and understand more martial arts, I still don't have enough time to practice and become familiar with it. And I My body, and due to the Six Yin Resurrection Curse, often cannot keep up with my martial arts progress."
Chu Xisheng suddenly became speechless.
He was deeply stimulated by Chu Yunyun's words.
It turns out that what Chu Yunyun lacks is not her understanding, she has always had some leftover.
Also, the key to limiting the growth of Chu Yunyun's strength now is Chu Xisheng.
"The main reason is that I don't have time to practice. I can't practice in a dream like you."
Chu Yunyun looked at Chu Xisheng: "It seems that your natal artifact is not simple. It should not just be the remains of the Donghuang Mirror. It should be integrated into a powerful artifact with the 'dream' heavenly rule. Someone can help you put it into place." They blend together.”
Chu Xisheng nodded slightly when he heard the words.
He thought so too.
The method of 'reversing yin and yang' arranged by Chu Fengge cannot accomplish such a miraculous thing.
It is estimated that before the yin and yang were reversed, the natal artifact in his body was already in a qualified embryonic state.
'Inverting the yin and yang' simply activates it.
——The person who arranged all this is so capable!
While they were talking, Bai Xiaozhao, with his crew cut, popped out of the stairs and looked at the two people on the deck.
She had seen Chu Xisheng running to Li Tan Cave before, and she thought her brother would inevitably get another beating, so she took her crew cut and took refuge in the cabin in advance.
Didn't even see Mr. Feng run away?
Mr. Feng has never been afraid of Sister Yunyun, but this time he avoided her in advance.
It can be seen that Mr. Feng also knows the seriousness of the matter.
The one-sword sword that is frozen in the Cave of Li Tan is a thorn in sister Yunyun's heart.
Before that woman proclaimed herself, she took away everything that should have belonged to Sister Yunyun, and Sister Yunyun had to pinch her nose to clean up her hands. How angry should she be in her heart?
The little flat head didn't want to be beaten anymore. It was badly hurt by its owner three days ago.
No matter how hard they work together, it and its owner can't defeat him, and he's covered in bruises all over his body.
They will retaliate, but in the face of such an absolute disparity in strength, no matter how stubborn they are, it will not help.
What's strange is that the two of them stayed under the cabin for a long time, and the plywood was calm and uneventful.
Bai Xiaozhao couldn't restrain his curiosity and wanted to see what happened.
But as soon as she emerged from the stairs, she saw a tender finger stretched out and flicked her forehead.
Bai Xiaozhao's vision immediately turned black and he fainted. Xiaopingtou also followed suit and also fainted on the stairs.
"Keep working hard. Xisheng, you are making rapid progress in martial arts. You are almost catching up with me."
For some reason, red clouds appeared on Chu Yunyun's pretty face again.
She held her hair and looked at the sea of clouds in the distance, her blue eyes full of shyness: "The promise I made to you three days ago is still valid. If you are sure, come and find me."
"promise?"
Chu Xisheng didn't react for a while, but then his eyes lit up and he was overjoyed: "You are at my mercy and you can do whatever you want?"
Chu Yunyun couldn't help but squeeze her fists again.
She did not answer, but looked at him: "The sword moves you performed three days ago still have many flaws. I have some ideas to help you make up for them. Just like paying back ten times, I have a better one." The method will help you strengthen, do you want to listen?"
The blush on Chu Yunyun's face became more obvious, even spreading to her neck.
Chu Xisheng grinned; "Listen, of course you must listen!"
This is called master's wife's skill in making a wife, so you must listen carefully.
※※※※
Only two hours later, Chu Xisheng sailed to the sky above Xiushui County.
His Shenyang bloodline has been upgraded to the twenty-fourth level, reaching the threshold of the realm of mortal gods, so the escape speed of the 'Sunbathing Shenzhou' has been greatly improved.
He could travel 200,000 miles back and forth in three hours, so it was hard not to do his best in front of Chu Yunyun at this time.
While Chu Xisheng was distracted and listened to Chu Yunyun's explanation of martial arts, he still sailed across a hundred thousand miles in two hours.
When the Sun-Bathing Shenzhou stopped in the sky above the Iron Flag Gang's chief helmsman, the couple descended on the steps in front of the chief helmsman's Juyi Hall together.
Everyone here, led by Tie Kuangren, Tie Xiaosheng, and Jian Zangfeng, all bowed towards Chu Xisheng and the others.
"Subordinates and others meet the flag master!"
Chu Xisheng smiled and raised his hand to signal everyone to get up.
But at this moment, a scribe in white walked out of the crowd and bowed deeply to Chu Xisheng.
"Sword Master Rong, today's Emperor Daning is so incompetent that the world is in chaos and laws and regulations are abolished; demons are everywhere, ghosts and gods are plundering; the people are displaced, trapped in water and fire; the people are in dire straits, and disasters are everywhere; the mountains and rivers are in turmoil, and the country is in turmoil!
But today, the people are already on the edge of the cliff. If they take a step back, they will starve to death all over the land and live in a chaotic world with ten houses and nine rooms. The common people ask Dao Lord to ascend the throne today, and with the dignity of the human emperor, he can clear the world, clean up the evil dust, calm the people's hearts, and save all living beings from water and fire! "
Everyone raised their heads and looked at the scribe.
There was a strange color in their eyes.
That was none other than the Grand Tutor of the Ning Dynasty - 'Wen Guan Wu Jue' Ding Cansheng!
The local civil servants and heads of wealthy families present were particularly shocked.
Before they arrived, they had a premonition that Chu Xisheng was about to proclaim himself emperor from the south.
But he never expected that Ding Cansheng, the Taifu of Daning, would abandon Daning and join the new dynasty, and today he would initiate the idea of proclaiming himself emperor and founding a country.
What on earth did Emperor Jianyuan do to such an extent that Ding Cangsheng, a veteran of three dynasties and the chief minister of the cabinet, abandoned him?
At the moment when everyone was surprised, Jian Zangfeng and others had already lifted up their clothes and prostrated themselves on the ground: "I sincerely request the banner leader to establish the country and ascend the throne to clarify the world, reorganize the world, and save all people from the fire and water!"
Just behind them, thousands of generals and countless gentry also bowed to Chu Xisheng.
"We see your Majesty. May your Majesty live forever, be majestic and bless the world!"
Next came the densely arranged elite soldiers in Juyitang Square, as well as several school fields outside, and the tens of thousands of Iron Flag Gang soldiers who were guarding the chief helm, all fell to their knees.
"We ask Your Majesty to found the country and ascend the throne, and create peace for all eternity!"
"We invite your Majesty to found the country and ascend the throne! May your Majesty have endless blessings and benefit the people!"
Their voices gathered together were like a roaring mountain and a tsunami, shaking the world!
At this moment, the dragon energy around Chu Xisheng was activated.
Twelve golden dragons shuttled out of the void behind Chu Xisheng, coiling around him.
Chu Xisheng smiled slightly and rolled up his robe sleeves: "My lords, please stand up! I know what you think. However, the founding of the country is of great importance. We will discuss it later."
According to the etiquette passed down from ancient times, the matter of proclaiming the emperor should have been made with three concessions and three concessions.
But he was too lazy to play this trick.
In this world of great change, we should do our part!
Now, except for him, who in this world can turn things around and save the Chinese people from the fate of decline?
※※※※
In the next few days, Chu Xisheng fell into a busy state.
Almost all night long, day and night.
In fact, Jian Zangfeng had already prepared all the preparations for the founding of the country and his enthronement, and all the necessary manpower and material resources were ready.
Jian Zangfeng even asked people to repair the city and build another palace in Qinhuai County.
Although Xiushui County was the place where Chu Xisheng and his wife started, the topography and location here were not suitable for being the capital of a country.
'Qinhuai County' is the most suitable place to build a capital in the south.
The east, west and south sides of this place are surrounded by mountains, connected by hills and mountains, shaped like a blue dragon, and are like a celestial city. To the north is the Shenxiu River, which is wide, deep and has strong waves, and is known as the celestial moat.
Therefore, this place has been known as "dragon crouching and tiger perched" since ancient times. If you advance, you can control the throat of the Shenxiu River and the canal, and compete with the Central Plains; if you retreat, you will have dangers to occupy, and it is easy to defend but difficult to attack. It is a place favored by Wang Qi.
The land here is also very fertile, and the grain production is abundant, which is better than the internal and external mountains and rivers in Heluo Prefecture.
However, Jian Zangfeng knew that they would not be able to stay in Qinhuai County for long.
Chu Xisheng definitely wants to enter the Heluo Prefecture and become a world leader.
It is estimated that within a year, this 'Qinhuai County' will become the southern capital of the new dynasty.
Therefore, this palace was only built to the specifications of a royal palace, and its area was very small. Of course, this palace is small, but it is well-equipped with everything it should have.
However, although Jian Zangfeng had made all the preparations, there were some things that he couldn't do for Chu Xisheng.
Founding a country is not a simple matter.
They first had to decide on a country name.
A group of Chu Xisheng's subordinates, as well as a group of celebrities and scholars he had recruited, argued in the Juyi Hall for a long time.
In the end, Chu Xisheng made a plan and decided on the country's name "Lü", which will be called Dalu Dynasty from now on.
This represents his philosophy of governing the country, respecting the law and governing the country according to the law.
They also had to agree on a year name.
Chu Xisheng was too lazy to listen to their argument. His head was pounding when he heard it, so he directly decided on the year name of 'Yuan Shi'.
After officially proclaiming himself emperor, he became the First Emperor of the Yuan Dynasty.
This year number has no special meaning, it is just a simple picture.
The next step is to clarify the official system.
The official system of the Daning Dynasty was actually extremely mature and only needed minor repairs.
Chu Xisheng only further optimized the cabinet system, abolished Daning's Fifth Army Governor's Office, and prepared to establish the Privy Council.
He also determined the powers, responsibilities and tenure of cabinet ministers and privy councilors, making them less unclear than before.
Then he split the six ministries and expanded them into thirteen ministries, adding the Ministry of Finance, Ministry of Culture, Ministry of Water, Ministry of Communications, Ministry of Mines, Ministry of Industry, and Ministry of Medicine.
Among them, the Ministry of Education is in charge of all educational matters.
Chu Xisheng believed that industry and health also needed to be taken seriously, so he established separate industry departments and medical departments.
The Business Department is in charge of 'industry' such as workshops in various places, while the Medical Department is responsible for medical and health care.
In addition, among the six ministries, the Ministry of Household Affairs, the Ministry of Rites, and the Ministry of Works have too many functions, and sometimes it is impossible to take them all into account. It is better to separate them and assign them full-time responsibilities.
This is also to strengthen the status and authority of the cabinet.
Chu Xisheng predicted that he would not be the Human Emperor for long.
He himself did not have much time to participate in governing the country.
As the future emperor, he is actually a symbol.
Therefore, he reduced the constraints on the cabinet and lowered the status of various ministers to facilitate the cabinet's governance.
However, the Privy Council was directly subordinate to the emperor, and the Ministry of War was under the jurisdiction of the Privy Council.
The power to appoint ministers and ministers to the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Ministry of Rites must also be in the hands of the emperor.
The cabinet has the right to make recommendations, but the emperor must determine the candidates.
Chu Xisheng knew that the government, finance, personnel and military power of a country were the most important. As long as these three points were tightened, the problem would not be big.
Chu Xisheng had no intention of governing the country, and he didn't care about secular power.
In the past, he took over the Iron Banner Gang in order to complete the Mystery of Chaos.
The purpose of establishing the Dalu Dynasty now is to strengthen the twelve dragon gods and fight against the gods.
Chu Xisheng was actually extremely bored with the tedious paperwork.
However, if he has descendants who have the ambition to govern the country, they can easily obtain real power with this structure.
Chu Xisheng also improved the Inspectorate, added more personnel to the Inspectorate, established censors at all levels, and defined their authority and responsibilities in the form of laws.
Unlike the Inspectorate of the Ning Dynasty, the censor supervised everything. As a result, he failed to supervise everything well and made the politics of the court a mess.
He also established a separate "Audit Yuan" to audit the financial expenditures of major departments of the imperial court and local counties.
However, Chu Xisheng actually has no hope for supervisory agencies such as the Supervisory Yuan and the Audit Yuan.
At the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China, these institutions were fine when people's minds were calm and politics were clear.
But once time goes by, under the corrosion of wealth, money, material desires and power, it is difficult for them not to have problems.
Chu Xisheng can only hope that the strict system can delay the decay of these bureaucrats in Dalu Dynasty.
He never expected that the dynasty he established would last forever.
In addition, he also took power from the local area and brought the local impeachment matters under the jurisdiction of the higher-level prosecutor's office.
Next is the appointment of officials at all levels and generals at all levels, as well as the division of defense zones, garrison generals in various places, etc.
There are also rewards for deserving officials.
Chu Xisheng still adopts the five-level title system of Duke, Marquis and Bozi, and each level is divided into three levels.
For example, a baron can be divided into a country boy, a county boy, and a county boy; a duke can also be divided into a county prince, a county prince, and a country prince.
There is also the difference between hereditary succession and reduced hereditary succession.
Chu Xisheng was quite generous in terms of military honors and titles.
However, the establishment of the Dalu Dynasty was very smooth, with few twists and turns, and it relied heavily on the efforts of Chu Xisheng and his wife. Very few of the generals were awarded the title of duke, and even fewer were hereditary.
Only the brothers Tie Kuangren and Tie Xiaosheng each obtained the title of Duke, and they had to reduce the six-level hereditary status.
It is impossible for the two of them to unite the army to fight in the future. It is estimated that this will be their final titles.
By the time Chu Xisheng had sorted everything out, it was already nine days later.
Nine days later, Chu Xisheng led his ministers and generals, as well as 200,000 forbidden troops adapted from the six battle halls of the Iron Banner Gang, to Qinhuai County with great momentum.
The day after they arrived in Qinhuai County was an auspicious day, suitable for opening a business, getting married, and offering sacrifices.
Chu Xisheng ascended the throne and founded the country on this day, and he proclaimed himself emperor amidst the worship of hundreds of thousands of people.
At this time, most of the officers and soldiers were flushed and excited.
However, in the Taizheng Hall, the main hall of the palace, some of the people closest to the throne had serious expressions, even hinting at worry.
Ding Cangsheng, who has received the imperial edict from Chu Xisheng and serves as an assistant minister in the cabinet, is one of them.
He even frequently glanced sideways at Jian Zangfeng beside him.
Jian Zangfeng looked impatient at his look, and turned around helplessly: "Your Majesty has made up his mind on the matter of offering sacrifices to heaven. Brother Ding, please don't bother with it anymore. Don't think about what kind of person your Majesty is. He won't even consider it." The gods looked down upon him, and under the Divine Tree of Creation, one man and one sword forced the gods to surrender. How could he follow the example of the previous emperors, offer sacrifices to the sky, and pay respect to the gods? What kind of emperor would he be?"
In this founding ceremony, Emperor Yuanshi did not offer sacrifices to heaven or earth, but only to his ancestors.
This made many aristocratic families and Confucian celebrities who had defected to the new dynasty feel uneasy. Not only did they fight in the court, but they also frequently wrote letters stating the pros and cons of disrespecting heaven and earth, hoping to change the mind of the Emperor of the Yuan Dynasty.
But his junior brother was too lazy to pay attention to them.
The bandit lost his temper, so he stuck his sword on the imperial desk and asked the ministers if my sword was not good enough to fight against the gods. Only then did those famous Confucian scholars cease their activity.
"It's not because of this." Ding Cangsheng shook his head slightly: "The gods are unkind, so forget it if Your Majesty doesn't want to pay respect. The reason why the previous dynasties offered sacrifices to heaven and earth, and to the gods, was that they still had the intention of keeping things in peace and settling down troubles. I think. If you can make good friends with the gods, you can resolve disasters, and even win over each other, climb high, and obtain help from the gods.
Your Majesty is a hero, and he is unwilling to bow his head to the gods. This is actually a good thing. The hearts of the gods will never die. This is the blood feud and the sworn resentment from generation to generation.
The upcoming Nine-Nine Divine Tribulation cannot be resolved by worshiping and offering sacrifices. Unless it can change the world, it's not disrespectful. I'm worried about another thing now. What does Your Majesty have to say about the Central Palace? "
Ding Cangsheng was actually very satisfied with the new emperor of the Yuan Dynasty.
This Majesty is not only superb in military force, wise and courageous, and tolerant, but he is also superb in power, military strategy, and ambitious plans.
In his eyes, this was a once-in-a-million-year-old gentleman.
The key is that Emperor Yuanshi has not yet taken power, and there is no suspicion of Emperor Jianyuan.
Since these few days, his experience in the cabinet can be known.
The First Emperor of the Yuan Dynasty had little interest in complicated government affairs.
He just sets a general direction and formulates a political program, then selects capable people and leaves it to them to implement it.
The emperor hangs his head and rules the world - this is simply the wise king they dream of as a Confucian scholar.
Therefore, even if Chu Xisheng was harsher on their aristocratic family and scholar-bureaucrats, Ding Commoners would be willing to accept it.
The annexation issue has troubled all dynasties, and Ding Cansheng, as a contemporary Confucian, is also deeply worried.
What's more, although the First Emperor of the Yuan Dynasty banned mergers, he deliberately encouraged 'industry', that is, various businesses, workshops, mineral deposits, etc., and even established the Ministry of Mines and the Ministry of Industry for this purpose.
As long as these aristocratic families adapt a little, they can have a place in the new dynasty.
There is only one thing that makes the people worried.
That is Chu Xisheng's harem.
The harem that everyone is most concerned about has never been decided.
This harem is incredible. If it is not handled properly, this huge Dalu Dynasty may collapse overnight.
The two girls, Chu Yunyun and Wen Suyi, were both extremely powerful warriors who could fight against gods.
They also have a large number of fans.
Today, nearly 60% of the troops and horses of the Dalu Dynasty, and 60% of the important generals, are their subordinates. In addition, there are many civil servants who originated from Youzhou and Far East Bingcheng.
Another girl, Lu Luanli, although her cultivation level is a bit inferior, she is equally well-established.
At this time, many people had learned that this was the posthumous daughter of the late prince.
This made many civil servants, celebrities, and even military generals who were nostalgic for the old dynasty place high hopes on Lu Luanli.
In particular, the surrendered ministers and generals who had recently defected to Daning had their support for Lu Luanli. Their power in the Dalu court was even greater than that of the two daughters of Chu and Wen.
Ding Cangsheng has always wanted to know Chu Xisheng's thoughts on the harem.
However, Chu Xisheng never gave the ministers a chance to discuss, and no edict was issued in the past few days to give them reassurance.
"Zhonggong?" Jian Zangfeng understood what Ding Cangsheng meant, but chose to play dumb.
He blinked his mung bean eyes: "The master of the middle palace is naturally the General Zhenbei. What else needs to be said?"
Ding Cangsheng's expression froze. He wondered if he hadn't said it clearly enough?
At this moment, he saw Chu Xisheng, wearing a gorgeous Twelve Chapter Gun uniform, holding the hand of Chu Yunyun next to him, slowly walked into the Taizheng Palace, and climbed up the stone steps.
What surprised Ding Cangsheng was that there was another woman beside Chu Xisheng.
Like Chu Yunyun, she was actually wearing Zhai clothes and a phoenix crown.
Jian Zangfeng saw this and smiled slightly: "Look, didn't His Majesty handle it very well? You and I really don't need to worry about the harem."
