The army of heaven returns to heaven, and the next step is to reward them based on their merits.

However, before the merits are discussed and rewards are given, the Five Emperors first report to the Jade Emperor and the Great Heavenly Lord for permission to make a major adjustment in the responsibilities of the Taixuan Province, the Lei Department, and the major ministries and departments of the Heavenly Court.

The scope of this adjustment is very large, covering all provinces, ministries, divisions, academies, bureaus and 90% of the immortal officials in the entire Heavenly Court, that is, the establishment of 'Second Government', 'Second Province', and 'Four Ministries'.

The second mansion: Shenxiao Jade Mansion and Shenlei Jade Mansion.

Two provinces: Taixuan Capital Province and Tianshu Capital Province.

Four departments: Thunder Department, Wind Department, Rain Department, and Electric Department.

Among them, Taixuandu Province and Tianshudu Province are under the jurisdiction of the Shenxiao Yufu, which is in charge of the promotion, selection and assignment of all literary, martial arts and immortal officials in the heaven. The Qinghua Emperor of the East is the "Chief Photographer Emperor" of the Yufu. .

The Ministry of Thunder, the Ministry of Wind, the Ministry of Rain, and the Ministry of Electricity are under the jurisdiction of the Divine Leiyu Mansion. They are in charge of all wind, rain, thunder and lightning, God's power and punishment, and the prosperity of all things within the three realms. The Nine Heavens respond to the sound of thunder and universalize the Heavenly Lord as the chief photographer of the Jade Mansion. Emperor'.

In addition, the classification of super-grade immortal officials was clarified, ranging from 'super-grade first-class gods' to 'super-grade fourteenth-class gods' below the emperor, and the general names of some of the classifications were modified:

The general name of Fu Tianjun remains unchanged, and he is a super-grade first-class god.

The six marshals were changed to 'Marshal Qingtian', a second-class super god.

The Four Great Celestial Masters were revised to "Hedao Celestial Masters", which are super-grade third-class gods.

The God of the Four Directions was changed to the God of Heaven Protection, which is a super-grade fourth-class god.

The most holy master remains unchanged and is a super-grade fifth-class god.

Zhou Tian Xingjun was changed to 'Zhou Tian Divine Lord', a super-grade sixth-level god.

The three-day spiritual god remains unchanged and is a super-grade seventh-level god.

The thirty-six gods remain unchanged and are super-eighth-level gods.

The Dharma Protector Heavenly King remains unchanged and is a ninth-grade super-grade god.

The fourth level of merit remains unchanged, making him a super-grade tenth-level god.

The Poseidon of the Four Seas was changed to the Poseidon of the Ten Directions, which is an eleventh-level super god.

The Sidu Source King was revised to the 'Shifang Source King', which is a super-grade twelfth-level god.

The central heavenly official remains unchanged and is a super-grade thirteenth-level god.

The central heavenly general remains unchanged and is a super-grade fourteenth-level god.

Moreover, the Taixuan Capital Province and the Tianshu Capital Province were divided into equal parts, and each had a "Grand Chief Envoy" who was designated as the "Three Heavenly Spiritual God".

But in this case, Ren Hua Zhenren and Fang Jian cannot be the chief envoys of Taixuan Capital Province and Tianshu Capital Province, because they are currently the Thirty-six Heavenly Lord Gods who are one level lower than the Three Heavenly Spirit Gods. 'This level.

However, Emperor Qinghua of the East Pole expressed Fang Jian's contribution. In this expedition to the southern continent, Fang Jian was in charge of logistics and recruited heavenly soldiers. He made great contributions and never made any mistakes. His contribution was second only to Erlang Shen.

Therefore, by the edict of Emperor Ziwei, Jin Fangjian was appointed as the "Three Heavenly Spiritual God" and appointed as the chief envoy of the Tianshu Province. He was in charge of all heavenly soldiers, generals and conquests below the seventh-level gods in heaven, and was in charge of all military affairs in heaven. In addition, he no longer holds the concurrent position of Tianjun of Xitianfu.

He also gave Fang Jian 300 ten-thousand-year elixirs, 50 million calamity jade, 100 five-thunder golden elixirs, and many other miraculous treasures, which I will not list here one by one.

At this point, Fang Jian was fortunate enough to become the second immortal official in heaven to be awarded a title after Erlang Shen.

But God Erlang must have received more than just a fairy robe as a reward, as well as more fairy medicines, elixirs, and tribulation jade. Roaring Sky Dog was promoted to the central heavenly official and became the thirteenth-level god of the heavenly court.

In addition, the Meishan brothers under Erlang God, as well as all the Caotou Gods and all the subordinates of Erlang Temple were rewarded.

Then came the six marshals. All the six marshals were awarded the 'Taiyi Yuhua Immortal Clothes', which were also Taiyi Golden Immortal level robes, but one level lower than the 'Nine Heavens Golden Que Immortal Clothes'.

In addition, there are various kinds of miraculous medicines, elixirs, tribulation jade and other rewards, which are no longer auspicious.

The previous "Tianshu Dulu" Jiao Shu also contributed a lot in this expedition. She killed a Xuanjiao Taiyi Golden Immortal, proving her extraordinary strength and achieving great achievements.

Therefore, Jiao Shu was directly promoted to the title of 'Zhoutian Divine Lord', and she jumped two levels from the 36th Heavenly Lord of the eighth-grade super-grade god to the sixth-grade super-grade god.

In this way, the Heavenly Court handed down awards one by one. The awards lasted for a total of three days (geographical calendar), and a celebration banquet was held at the headquarters of the four major Tianmen Dangmo Schools. From Lord Fu Tianzhen to ordinary heavenly soldiers, everyone was at the celebration banquet. Among them, civil and military officials, heavenly soldiers and heavenly generals are all happy.

The celebration banquet lasted for ten days in total (geographical calendar). According to statistics from Taixuan City afterwards, this reward consumed a total of 560 billion kalpas of jade from Heaven.

You must know that there are nearly 8 million heavenly soldiers alone. The credit for killing enemies on the battlefield and the current reward must be calculated together. If each person has an average of 30,000 tribulation jade, it is more than 240 billion tribulation jade.

Of course, the reward given to the Heavenly Soldiers is a fixed amount of 20,000 Tribulations Jade per person. The merits on the battlefield are naturally calculated separately. Some are higher and some are lower.

After the rewards are completed, these more than eight million heavenly soldiers will now be handed over to Tianshu Province for disposal. This matter will eventually fall into Fang Jian's hands.

In addition, the 'Qilüyuan' and the 'Lingying General Administration' have also been established, which are affiliated to Taixuan Capital Province and have nothing to do with Fang Jian.

The current Taixuan Capital Province and Tianshu Capital Province are both civil and military, jointly assisting Emperor Qinghua of the East in controlling the power of heaven.

However, the person who was appointed as the chief envoy of Taixuan Province was beyond Fang Jian's expectation. This person was neither promoted nor transferred by an immortal official he was familiar with, nor was he selected from among the Taoist immortals. Instead, they were directly appointed from the 'Holy Master's Mansion'.

His name is 'Yan Hui'.

Yan Hui, Confucius's most proud disciple, was the first of the seventy-two sages of Confucius.

When Fang Jian heard the news, he immediately understood the reason for canonizing Yan Hui as the chief envoy of Taixuan Capital Province. Now Heavenly Court has its own system of immortal officials, as well as Taoist officials who have been canonized and are about to enter Heavenly Court. There will even be Buddhist immortals and gods who will soon become officials in heaven.

Therefore, the purpose of launching Confucianism at this time is to "balance the three religions." However, this is not accurate, because Confucius is still in charge of the Confucianism in Heaven. It is not the Confucianism of later generations, but the original Confucian style.

But no matter what, this matter has nothing to do with him for the time being. What he has to do now is how to properly arrange the more than eight million heavenly soldiers. This is his primary responsibility as the chief envoy of Tianshu Province.

Shenxiao Yufu is still the former Immortal Palace of Taixuandu Province, but now Taixuandu Province is just an institution under Shenxiao Yufu, and the original Taixuan Palace has also been changed to 'Shenxiao Palace'.

Now the entire Shenxiao Jade Palace is divided into three major areas, which are also three major palace groups. They are the 'Shenxiao Palace' in the center and the main hall is the 'Shenxiao Palace'. The 'Tai Xuan Palace' is located on the left, and the main hall is 'Tai Xuan Palace'. Located on the right is the 'Tianshu Palace', and the main hall is 'Tianshu Palace'.

Fang Jian was sitting high in Tianshu Hall at this moment, receiving congratulations from the immortal officials of Tianshu Province below.

Thanks to this expedition to Nanzhan Buzhou, and Fang Jian's contribution in ensuring logistics and recruiting heavenly soldiers, it turned out that the immortal officials in Wuying Palace were also rewarded based on their merits, and each was promoted.

For example, Qu Daoping, the former young director of Taixuan Province, is now the new Tianshu Capital Lu, and his status in Tianshu Province is only lower than Fang Jian.

After everyone had finished saluting, Fang Jian said to Qu Daoping: "Tianshu Dulu, from now on, your duty is to lead the immortal officials of Tianshudu Province to go to the Tiantianmen Demon School to count and count the number of heavenly soldiers, and Count those who stay and go."

Qu Daoping was startled when he heard this and said: "The number of those who are going to stay? Great Master, what do you mean by this?"

Fang Jian said: "It's the three million loose immortals who promised to stay or stay by themselves after the war. Since the heaven has made a promise, it cannot be broken. Therefore, all the heavenly soldiers who were born in the loose immortals should be inquired and counted. If they are willing to stay, Those who wish to stay will be recorded, and those who wish to leave will be recorded, and after the statistics are completed, they will all be sent away with calamity jade."

Qu Daoping was suddenly enlightened when he heard this, and immediately bowed and responded: "I will obey the decree of the great envoy."

Just as Qu Daoping and other immortal officials were ordered to leave, Hei Haier walked out of Tianshu Hall carrying the three-sided giant axe.

At this time, Hei Hai'er had also changed out of his original sixth-grade immortal official robe and replaced it with a fifth-grade immortal official robe. He followed Fang Jian during the expedition to the south and made a lot of contributions, so Also promoted to the first level.

"Master Qi, Master Ren Hua is waiting outside the hall to see you." Hei Hai'er bowed and bowed.

Fang Jian was startled when he heard this, then immediately stood up and walked out of the jade case and said: "Please come quickly."

Hei Haier sang and then turned around and left. A burst of laughter came to mind when he was young, and then he saw Master Ren Hua striding into the Tianshu Hall.

"Master Hongqing, congratulations." Master Ren Hua cupped his fists towards Fang Jian, and then he bowed his hands to Fang Jian, "I'm going to pay my respects to the chief envoy."

"Hahaha." Fang Jian quickly stepped forward and grabbed Master Ren Hua and said, "Fellow Taoist, you don't have to be like this. Hei Haier, serve tea to Master Ren Hua."

Then Fang Jian asked Master Ren Hua to take a seat. The two sat side by side on the two sandalwood chairs on the left side of the hall. Then Fang Jian asked: "Where will you go, fellow Taoist?"

Because of this expedition to Nanzhan Buzhou, the original Wenlin officials of Taixuandu Province did not have much credit, so even if they were awarded rewards, they would not be able to be promoted to the first level. Therefore, Ren Hua is now unable to reach the level of taking office in Taixuandu. If the rank of the provincial chief envoy is high, then there must be another appointment, which is basically a horizontal transfer.

As Fang Jian finished speaking, Master Ren Hua suddenly said with a smile on his face: "The Shenxiao Jade Mansion has appointed me as the Heavenly Lord of the West Heaven Mansion."

"Oh?!" Fang Jian was stunned when he heard this, and then he held his hands with a smile and said: "Congratulations, fellow Taoist, this is a high official in the border area."

Master Ren Hua waved his hand, then looked at Fang Jian seriously and said: "To be honest, I came here to bother fellow Taoist for no other reason than this. I came here specifically to 'get the true scripture' from Master Hongqing."

Now that the war in Nanzhan Buzhou has ended, Buddhism and Xuanjiao have also submitted petitions, and the overall situation of heaven's dominance has been determined.

Therefore, the current Xiniu Hezhou no longer has such a high degree of specialness, so Fang Jian no longer concurrently serves as the Tianjun of Xitianfu, and Zhenren Ren Hua becomes the person to take over as the Tianjun of Xitianfu.

But even though Xiniu Hezhou is no longer so special, the situation in Xiniu Hezhou is still complicated, because it is the private land of Buddhism after all, so as soon as Ren Hua received the appointment, he immediately came to Tianshu Province to look for Fang Jian' Learn from the experience.
