Seeing that there were many people around her, Mei Xiaohan drove them all away.

Several bewitching women who were originally around their knees scattered in an instant, and they were so frightened that they crawled and rolled.

"Why is the emperor suddenly angry?" The little eunuch said.

Hearing the little eunuch's voice for the first time, Mei Xiaohan's whole body was numb.

Mei Xiaohan said, "Who are you?" Why is the sound so scary? ”

The little eunuch said: "Emperor Xuan, I am Emperor Xuanhuang's personal little eunuch Zhao Dezi!" ”

Mei Xiaohan said, "Then do you know who I am?" ”

The little eunuch knelt on the ground and kowtowed: "Of course I know, Emperor Xuan is the king of the Yu Kingdom!" ”

Mei Xiaohan asked, "What year is it now?" ”

"It's the first year of Xuanwu! The first year of Song Tiansheng! ”

"The first year of the Heavenly Sage, the name of Song Renzong."

Yu Kingdom, a small northern country, was a vassal state of the Song Dynasty. He was a vassal to the Song Dynasty, his military strength was weak, his economy was weak, and he was militarily protected by the Song Dynasty.

The largest capital city in Yuguo, "Beifujing", has only 10,000 households and 60,000 people.

There are 36 large and small towns in the country, and the smallest towns have a population of only a few thousand.

An old man knelt at the side door and reported: "Emperor Xuan! Lao Chen, please play if you have something! ”

The little eunuch saw that Emperor Xuan was taking a nap, waved his hand again and again, and asked him to retreat first.

"Come in, please!"

As soon as the old man entered the hall, Mei Xiaohan was stunned, this person was Zhuge Yuan!

As soon as Mei Xiaohan was about to speak, the old man shook his hand: "Emperor Xuan is now the lord of the Yu Kingdom!" Be careful with what you say and do! ”

Mei Xiaohan swallowed and foamed: "Aichen.. Aichen said yes..."

Mei Xiaohan looked at the eunuch and said, "Don't step back quickly, the widow has an important military plane to talk to Aichen." ”

drove away all the eunuchs and palace maids, and there was no one else in the hall, Mei Xiaohan said: "Zhuge Yuan, what is going on?" ”

"Why did General Ben suddenly become the emperor of the Feather Kingdom!"

Zhuge Yuan said: "The emperor of this Yuguo country is demented, he only likes women, and the general looks very similar to him, so ..."

Mei Xiaohan said: "Why do you want General Ben to be the emperor, isn't this pushing General Ben into the fire pit?" ”

"What about my Yangcheng Army?"

Zhuge Yuan said: "I already have a clever plan, please General Mei don't worry, but..."

"But what? Tell me..."

Zhuge Yuan said: "From this moment on, the general is the emperor of the Yu Kingdom, and he can only call himself a widow!" ”

Mei Xiaohan said: "The widow doesn't know anything about Yuguo, I'm afraid it's not appropriate!" ”

Zhuge Yuan said: "This is exactly the reason why I came here in a hurry, I will explain the situation of Yuguo in detail." ”

Country name: Feather Country

Territory: 73,000 square kilometers

Population: 1.68 million

Treasury silver: 250,000 taels

Number of towns: 35

The ratio of agriculture and industry is 85:10:5

Overall tax rate: 10 tax 3

Number of troops: 10,000 people

Town rate: 3/100

...

Zhuge Yuan said: "Yu State is now a vassal state of the Song Dynasty, and because it is militarily protected by the Song Dynasty, the number is not very large. ”

The Yu Kingdom paid a large amount of agricultural products, cattle and horses to the Song court every year to seek peace on the border.

"Who is in charge of the Yukuni army!"

The Yuguo army is divided into three parts, namely the Yufu Army, the Baifu Army, and the Beifu Army.

Yufu Army: 4,000 people

Baifu Army: 3,000 people

Beifu Army: 3,000 people

The Yufu Army was led by three generals, the Baifu Army was also led by the three generals, and the Beifu Army belonged to the royal army and was directly commanded by Emperor Xuan.

Mei Xiaohan said: "What is Zhuge Yuan's current position?" ”

Zhuge Yuan said: "Right Prime Minister!" ”

The right prime minister is the prime minister who stands on the emperor's right hand, also known as the chief prime minister.

The left prime minister is the prime minister standing on the left hand of the emperor, also known as the vice minister.

Basically, the official position of the right prime minister is greater than that of the left prime minister.

However, each dynasty is different, the right phase was large in the Southern Song Dynasty, the left phase was large in the Northern Song Dynasty, the right phase was large in the Qin Dynasty, and the right phase was large in the Han Dynasty.

At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, the left was greater, and the Qing Dynasty also respected the left, for example, the left governor was bigger than the right governor.

The right prime minister of Yu Country is bigger than the left prime minister.

The officials of the Yuguo Kingdom are divided into two types: the northern government officials and the local officials, and the officials are divided into nine grades and eighteen grades.

The officials of the North Prefecture are: Zheng Yipin, Congyi Pin; is the second product, from the second product; is the third product, from the three products; is four products, from four products;

The magistrates are: the five grades and the five grades; is six products, from six products; is seven products, from seven products;

Other officials: Zheng Bapin, Cong Bapin; is nine products, from nine products;

Unemployed officials: no rank, can be promoted according to the situation.

Zhuge Yuan said: "Emperor Xuan can summon Yang Zhen, the secretary of the Ministry of Propaganda and Officials, to interrogate. ”

The Ministry of Officials is in charge of the appointment, dismissal, inspection, promotion, transfer and other affairs of the officials of the Yu State;

The grade of the official Shangshu of Yuguo is not high, and it belongs to the third grade, but the status of the official Shangshu is very high. After all, he holds the power of appointing and dismissing, inspecting, promoting, and transferring officials.

Yang Zhen was very surprised when he heard Emperor Xuan announce him, and the stupid emperor suddenly began to ask about politics, which made Yang Zhen uneasy.

Entering the main hall, seeing that Emperor Xuan was majestic and dignified, quite imposing, Yang Zhen knelt down and bowed: "Long live my emperor!" Minister... Yang Zhengong wishes His Majesty Emperor Xuan a long life and boundless ?..."

Emperor Xuan said: "Yang Zhen, as the secretary of the ministry, the so-called position is to seek his position, what do you think of yourself?" ”

Yang Zhen was shocked, he didn't expect this stupid emperor to suddenly ask like this, and he couldn't say a word.

"It seems... You're a wine bag and a rice bag! ”

Yang Zhen wept bitterly and said: "Emperor Xuan, the minister can't believe that His Majesty Emperor Xuan would suddenly care about the government, so he is very moved. ”

Mei Xiaohan looked at Zhuge Yuan, and Zhuge Yuan said: "Your Majesty Emperor Xuan, if you are wise and foolish, he is investigating you." ”

Emperor Xuandao: "You must explain the situation of all the officials in Beijing one by one, otherwise you will be punished!" ”

"There are a total of 36 officials in Beijing who are above the fourth grade, and most of them have obtained official positions by buying officials... There are few truly talented scholars. ”

"Bold Yang Zhen, you dare to sell your official position publicly, it's really bold!"

Although Yang Zhen is a secretary of the ministry, it is just a fictitious position, and there is indeed someone else who really controls the power of appointing and dismissing officials.

Yang Zhen said: "The officials have long been hollowed out, and the general Yuanzhang has heavy troops, calling for wind and rain, and no one dares to disobey!" ”

Zhuge Yuan said: "Yuanzhang has a close relationship with many members of the Song Dynasty and has a wide range of contacts, and the two armies of Yuguo Yufu and Baifu have his eyeliner. ”

"The most terrifying thing is that Yuan Zhang recruited troops privately, and it is rumored that there is an army of 6,000 people!"

Emperor Xuan said: "Yang Zhen, if you have any movement in Yuan Zhang in the future, you must directly report to Zhuge Yuan Youcheng." ”

"Emperor Xuan wants to attack Yuan Zhang?"

Emperor Xuan said: "No... Let him make trouble! ”

"Only if the widow doesn't disturb him, can he grab Yuan Zhang's tail."

"The widow wants to wipe out Yuan Zhang and other thieves!"

Zhuge Yuan said: "Emperor Xuan, the situation in Yucheng is very chaotic, Yuan Zhang wants to get rid of it, but he can't be in a hurry." ”

Emperor Xuan said: "Yang Zhen, will you be like Yuan Zhang one day?" ”

Yang Zhen said: "Yang Zhenzu has inherited the emperor's grace for five generations in order to enjoy the wealth and glory, and Yang Zhen will definitely not do anything apostasy." ”

"Yang Zhen's heartfelt can be seen in the sky!"
