In fact, strictly speaking, this matter was not discovered by Deyunshe's fleet.

After Yang Ling announced that anyone who discovered the New World could become the local governor, the wealthy noble families along the coast were gearing up.

Some powerful families sent ships early to explore offshore islands.

For example, Luzon Island in later generations was discovered in advance by Lu Xun's family and sent people to cultivate it.

An application has also been made to the court to serve as governor.

In addition, several ships encountered storms and headed east, eventually drifting to the Japanese island.

They were surprised to find many Han warships on the beach.

Although Sun Quan was not found, after private observation and inquiring, it is certain that these people are Zhou Tai, Ling Tong, and the three thousand Jiangdong soldiers who followed Sun Quan!

"I see!"

Yang Ling touched his chin and nodded.

"His Royal Highness, King Qi, wants to invade Japan Island?"

Mi Fang said cautiously.

Yang Ling smiled but did not answer.

Upon seeing this, Mi Zhu and Mi Fang bowed politely and immediately stood up to leave.

As soon as the Mi brothers left, servants came to report that Pang Tong, Gao Rou and other court officials had come to pay their respects.

have to.

I originally thought that hiding would provide some peace and quiet, but it was in vain.

I am like a firefly in the dark night, so bright and outstanding.

Yang Ling sighed, waved his hand and said,

"Let them in!"

After a while, Pang Tong, Gao Rou, Xu Shu and others arrived hand in hand.

"I have met His Highness King Qi!"

"Please sit down without courtesy."

Everyone found their own seats to sit down. Pang Tong spoke first,

"Your Highness, King Qi, this is your fault. Since you are returning to the court, you should notify the court in advance so that we can go out of the city to greet you."

Yang Ling rolled his eyes,

"I just want to keep a low profile."

"Even if you keep a low profile, you still have to inform us. Your Highness doesn't know something. There are many matters backlogged in the court that are still waiting for His Highness to deal with."

Gao Rou said seriously.

"There are hundreds of officials and military officials in the court. There are hundreds of people in total. There is the emperor above and you and other assistants below. Is it not possible to be alone?"

"Other things are fine, but there is one thing that must be handled by His Highness King Qi."

"Oh? What is it?"

Yang Ling said with some surprise.

Although Zhuge Liang, Xun Yu, Jia Xu and other talented people died one after another, Cao Wei also recruited a large number of talented people under the imperial examination system.

In addition, Pang Tong, Gao Rou, Xu Shu and others were in charge of the court, so there were things they couldn't handle?

"To report to His Highness the King of Qi, we feel that the current system is no longer sufficient to manage the country."

"After some discussions, we plan to reform the system."

"But I have no choice but to have little talent and little knowledge, and after long discussions, it is not ideal, so I can only turn to His Highness the King of Qi for help."

Pang Tong said sincerely.

The Han Dynasty inherited the Qin system, and Cao Wei accepted the abdication of Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, thus naturally continuing the Han system.

It's just that times have changed, and today is different from the past.

In terms of territorial area alone, Cao Wei was much larger than Qin and Han.

Not to mention that Cao Wei also accepted the Xiongnu, Xianbei, Nanman and other barbarians as his own subjects and governed them.

As a result, the previous system was somewhat backward. Not only was it no different for Cao Wei in governing the world, it actually hindered him.

Pang Tong, Gao Rou and others had discovered this a long time ago and intended to reform the system.

It's a pity that although they are smart, they can't come up with any good ideas after much discussion.

Today, everyone was discussing the matter with Cao Yuan. When they heard that Yang Ling had returned, they came to see him happily.

In their opinion, Yang Ling knows everything about ancient and modern times and has great magical powers!

"Do you really think you can do anything alone?"

Yang Ling didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Everyone nodded.

"..."

Yang Ling waved his hand and sighed,

"Actually, you don't need to tell me that Gu Ye has long been interested in reforming the imperial system, but he has been delayed."

"As for how to reform, I already have a plan in mind!"

"Oh? Please come quickly, His Highness Prince Qi!"

Pang Tong said expectantly.

The others also stared at Yang Ling with shining eyes.

"I intend to change the system of three ministers and nine ministers to a system of three provinces and six ministries!"

Everyone looked at each other in shock. This was the first time they heard about the so-called three provinces and six ministries system.

"Actually, it's easy to say. The three provinces are Zhongshu Province, Menxia Province, and Shangshu Province."

"The Ministry of Personnel, the Ministry of Husbandry, the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Punishment, and the Ministry of Industry each have four divisions, making a total of twenty-four divisions."

"The Zhongshu Province is a decision-making body responsible for drafting and issuing the emperor's edicts,"

"The province is a deliberation body, responsible for reviewing government decrees and refuting violations."

"The Shangshu Province is the executive agency responsible for implementing important decrees, and it has jurisdiction over six ministries."

“The Ministry of Personnel is responsible for the appointment and dismissal, examination, promotion, transfer and other affairs of officials across the country. It consists of the Department of Personnel, the Department of Feng, the Department of Honors and the Department of Examination.”

"The Ministry of Household Affairs is in charge of household registration, finance and economics, the country's territory, land, household registration, taxes, salaries and wages, and all financial matters. It consists of the Household Department, the Du Branch Department, the Finance Department and the Cangbu Department."

"The official department is in charge..."

"The Ministry of War is in charge..."

The Sui Dynasty summarized and determined the five provinces and six cao system based on the systems of previous dynasties.

On the basis of the Sui Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty perfected the system of three provinces and six ministries, which was then used until the end of the Qing Dynasty.

I cannot say that the Three Provinces and Six Ministries system is the most perfect system, but it is extremely suitable for Chinese feudal society.

Yang Ling explained the specific situation of the three provinces and six ministries one by one. The more everyone listened, the more surprised they became. By the end, their mouths were open and their faces were extremely shocked!

It has to be said that this system has a clear division of labor and is extremely efficient. It can also supervise and check each other to improve the accuracy of decision-making and administrative efficiency.

The most important thing is that the power is dispersed, which helps to stabilize the imperial power!

"His Royal Highness King Qi... is really knowledgeable and talented!"

Pang Tong sighed sincerely.

They and the courtiers discussed it for more than half a month, but they couldn't figure it out.

However, Yang Ling remained silent and designed such a perfect system based on his personal talents!

Why are the gaps between people so big?

Yang Ling accepted the compliments from Pang Tong and others without blushing and smiled.

"Guhuitou will copy down the system orders and send a copy to you all."

"After you study it carefully, it will be implemented next month."

"If there's nothing else, let's go down first!"

Everyone stood up one after another, bowed and left.

"Shi Yuan stays!"

Yang Ling stopped Pang Tong.

"Any other instructions, Your Highness?"

Pang Tong said strangely.

"I have received news in the past few days that traces of Sun Quan were found on the Japanese island to the east."

Yang Ling said softly.
