Sent his son to study, although Chen Mo paid attention to his son's studies, but most of his energy was still above the government, although the court was there before, but it was an empty shell, three dukes and nine kings, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were more of a means to restrict Cao Cao, and did not play its due function.

Although Liu Xie is dead now, Liu Neng succeeds to the throne with the support of Chen Mo, no matter what kind of caution Liu Neng himself has, but his succession to the throne is to Chen Mo to make up for the shortcomings of the imperial court, and the imperial court can start to operate.

Since the new emperor succeeded to the throne, Chen Mo's main focus was on the formation of the imperial court, which eliminated many useless and cumbersome official positions, and added new official positions to enable the imperial court to operate more effectively.

Don't look at it simply, but in fact, many things are new, even if Chen Mo is groping forward, such as the Commercial Policy Department, which specializes in regulating domestic merchants, although Chen Mo encourages commerce, but he also knows that if the unscrupulous development of business is really the root of the cholera world, it has always been Chen Mo to encourage business, but also to suppress the emergence of some big businessmen.

At the same time, the traders can hire rangers to protect the delivery goods, but they are not allowed to raise the soldiers privately, once discovered, they will be copied and beheaded, and they will not be merciful, this point is not negotiable, Chen Mo's face is that the doormen of the wealthy family want to restrict, let alone the merchants.

Moreover, Chen Mo encouraged business, but the taxes of large merchants were frighteningly high, and almost half of the profits had to go to the imperial court, and the Commercial Policy Department was established for this reason.

In addition, on the basis of the craftsman's general, the establishment of the Shengong Department, the world's craftsmen, as long as there is a name in the Shengong Department, it will be protected by the imperial court, whether it is a businessman or a scholar, the hired craftsmen have to be invited according to the price set by the imperial court, and if the craftsman can improve or create better things, it is also protected by the imperial court, and others want to use it, they have to give money, not you imitate it or yours, this part of the money, the imperial court collects half, and the craftsman collects half.

As the most fundamental aspect of agriculture, in addition to the general of the farmer, Chen Mo also set up three other departments to be responsible for the study of agriculture.

Since Chen Mo made himself a prince, the policies he has implemented have been refined and standardized, and the issue of supervising taxes in various places has been set up before, but Chen Mo has now set up a person who is specifically responsible for supervising and supervising, limiting the rights of local officials as much as possible to ensure that the imperial court can obtain the greatest benefits without harming the people.

Such a new law of interlocking layers of supervision, the operation needs to consume a lot of money and food, but get more, Chen Mo from the state to Guanzhong and then to Luoyang is all the way to this way, the new law is also constantly improving, saving manpower at the same time can also play a role in supervision, to get to this point, it is not easy.

This is also the fundamental reason why Chen Mo reacted so much when Liu Neng wanted to stretch out his hand, directly abolished Tingwei and coerced Liu Neng, Liu Neng may be a little clever, but his cleverness is simply not enough to control such a huge and complex system, the new law that Chen Mo has painstakingly established is not allowed to be destroyed by anyone, not even the Son of Heaven.

Chen Mo has put no less effort into this new method than he has poured into his son, maybe he can't last forever, but at least for the current era, Chen Mo is sure that his new law is the most suitable.

If you want to say how busy it is, the prototype of the new law has already been there as early as when the state was merged, Chen Mo continued to try and adjust in Chang'an, and now the most important thing is to apply the perfect system to the imperial court, eliminate meaningless official positions, and the power of the imperial court has gradually transferred to the general's mansion and Shangshuling here, and it is not wrong to say that the imperial power is erected, but Guanzhong, Heluo, and Bingzhou are all laid down by Chen Mo, and now an emperor is to unite people's hearts, not to divide his rights.

Moreover, with Liu Neng's cleverness, Chen Mo can quickly be defeated by him even if he puts the power in his hands, Chen Mo is naturally unwilling, which is also the fundamental reason for the previous conflict between monarchs and ministers, Liu Neng is not satisfied with being a puppet emperor, and Chen Mo is obviously impossible to back down.

And this short-lived conflict, in the end, naturally ended with Chen Mo winning, the chess pieces that Liu Neng could use in his hands, from the court to the market, were completely eradicated by Chen Mo, and the decisive and ruthless means are not realized by many people until now, such a result is not surprising, an emperor who has just been embraced, does not have any authority in his hands, and Chen Mo, who wants to create the situation in these three states from one hand, is too serious about himself.

However, Chen Mo believes that Liu Neng's temporary dormancy is not the final result, at least this new son of heaven has learned to forbear, so continue to endure it, Chen Mo cannot kill him, nor can he abolish him, the most important thing now is to improve and consolidate the new law, gather all the contradictions, and then this son of heaven will still have some use.

In this way, the end of the year of Han Zhu came in an atmosphere of peace and tranquility, this year, for Guanzhong, Heluo, Bingzhou, Xiliang, it was a big harvest year, especially the people of Guanzhong, after several years of operation by Chen Mo, has gradually satisfied the food and clothing, the population of Bingzhou and Xiliang began to increase in the past two years, the existence of the fireplace has made the bitter cold land in the north has not been so difficult, especially in the last two years, there have been few reports of people freezing to death in the north, these two years Tai Shi Ci also subdued several Xianbei tribes to move to live in Bingzhou.

After all, Bingzhou is a bitter cold place, and the winter outside the city is even more difficult.

"If this continues, with the current population growth alone, in less than ten years, the number of people under the rule of the lord will probably exceed two million." Li Ru checked the household registration sent from all over this year, looked at Chen Mo with a smile and smiled.

At that time, Chen Mo's side can gradually catch up with Yuan Shao and Cao Cao in terms of population, and at that time, Chen Mo will occupy more than just geographical advantages.

"If you can take Jizhou, the household registration under the rule can increase by 2 million within ten years." Chen Mo signed an official document, shook his head and said with a smile, in this troubled era, internal development is important, but the most important thing is the foreign war, he has continued to issue measures to benefit the people over the years, and he also intends to absorb more people in the Central Plains, but unfortunately, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao are very tight on this defense, and Chen Mo has had little effect in absorbing the population externally.

Li Ru nodded and smiled, it is naturally best to be able to do this, but unfortunately although Yuan Shao was defeated for a while, Yuan Shao's own foundation has not been lost, how easy is it to annex Jizhou? At this time, the situation in the world is not clear, it is better to slowly increase the strength and wait and see the world.

"Lord, there is one person, I think the lord should be vigilant." Xu Shu on the side suddenly looked up at Chen Modao.

"Oh?" Chen Mo looked at Xu Shu with some surprise: "Who can make Yuan Zhi so vigilant." ”

"Liu Bei." Xu Shu handed a roll of bamboo slips to Chen Mo and said: "According to the report that our army has placed in Suiyang, this person got the name of the clan in Suiyang last month, and it was personally recognized by Liu Wei, and the name of this person was found in the royal family tree, and he was the uncle of Liu Wei, the puppet emperor of Suiyang. ”

"Liu Bei." Chen Mo nodded, Liu Bei came to congratulate him when he got married, at that time Chen Mo remembered that this person had a hidden dragon life, and later Chen Mo also paid attention to this person, thinking that becoming the lord of Xuzhou was Liu Bei's limit, but after Xuzhou, he first voted for Yuan Tan, and then borrowed troops to go south, and got the skill of destroying Yuan, it seems that he has not made a big deal, but he can always be seen in the Central Plains, and his reputation is getting higher and higher, and now he has the name of the emperor's uncle, if he is given a chance, I am afraid that he can break out again.

"This person is also interesting." Li Ru said with a smile: "Since borrowing troops into Yanzhou, he has fought with Cao Cao several times, and he has lost every battle, but his reputation is getting higher and higher, and he can always survive in defeat. ”

"There is only one in the world." Chen Mo nodded, from the beginning of Dong Zhuo's chaotic dynasty, the princes of the world rose up, and now the Central Plains is divided into three points, during this period, how many princes Chen Mo can't count, but those who can get a good death are only Ma Teng, Kong Rong and the like, these people can still enter the court as officials, but their reputation is definitely not as good as before, they have become vassals of the great princes, and more of them are defeated and killed with the collapse of the power.

Liu Bei is the only one who is an outlier, he has been defeated repeatedly, but he has not been completely attached to the princes, and he can even survive in a desperate situation, and his reputation is getting bigger and bigger, which is really strange.

"Where did he go after he got the name of the emperor's uncle?" Chen Mo said curiously.

"I don't know for the time being, but before Liu Bei entered Suiyang, the generals under Yuan Shu in the past appeared in the Runan area, and after Liu Bei left Suiyang, he also went to Runan, and I suspect that this is probably involved." Xu Shu pondered.

Chen Mo closed his eyes and thought carefully, went to Runan, but did not defect to Sun Ce, changed places, if he was Liu Bei, he would not defect to Sun Ce, after all, Jiangdong was single-handedly defeated by Sun Ce, even if he voted for Sun Ce, there is not much to conspire to, Liu Bei is obviously not a person who has lived under the people for a long time, if he is Liu Bei, he can vote at this time, but it is Liu Biao of Jingzhou or Liu Zhang of Xishu, both of whom are relatives of the Han family, and Liu Bei has the friendship of the same clan, in addition, although Liu Biao is the king of Chu, but under his rule he was set up by the Jingxiang family, and his name is not worthy of the name, Liu Zhang inherited Liu Yan's foundation, but he did not have Liu Yan's means, and he lost Hanzhong as soon as he gained Yizhou.

"In Jingzhou and Sichuan, there are many meticulous works, if it is not surprising, Liu Bei is afraid that he will choose these two places to settle down and pay close attention to their movements." Chen Mo opened his eyes, looked at everyone and smiled.

This person who was not in his sight had unconsciously had some meaning to shake the situation in the world, but unfortunately now that the Central Plains was three-legged, Chen Mo had no time to take care of it, if the Central Plains were unified at this time, Chen Mo would have enough time to attack Jingxiang.

"Whoa!"
