Speaking of which, Bo G's only one thing is inappropriate.

That is, the power of the county guard is too great, and the western land is close to the Chu State, once someone in it makes a rebellion, this newly established new county of the Wu State is very likely to be recaptured by the Chu people.

Or, at the instigation of the Chu people, establish a country on its own, or split into several small countries!

This is precisely what Qingji is worried about.

The land of Qunshu, Chao, and Zhongli, in the past, it was all some Fang countries, and the vassal states divided by Zhou Tianzi are still the feudal lords of Wu State, and their power is not small.

If they still don't submit to the state of Wu, what can they do if they are jealous?

Setting up a county only increases the risk of the West being divided, but it will not share much pressure for Yang Rui.

"Zhisu Neishi, what do you think?"

Qingji set his eyes on Fan Li's body again.

As if he had already guessed that Qingji would ask him, Fan Li hurriedly said: "King, the opinion of the minister coincides with that of the pawn. At this time, it is not suitable to be in Xidi County. ”

The time has not yet come!

Qingji bowed slightly.

Fan Li can be regarded as saying what is in his heart!

As long as the feudal lords of the western region have not been resolved, it is inconvenient for Wu to set up a county there, because it is counterproductive to keep it incomplete.

The feudal monarchs directly obeyed the orders of Qingji, the king of Wu, how could they obey the orders of a county guard?

They're all face-saving people!

"Good!"

Qingji immediately waved his hand and said, "Then it won't be in Xidi County." Dazai! ”

"The old minister is here!"

"It is up to you to select some scholars with outstanding abilities to serve as county commanders, county lieutenants, county officials, chief bookkeepers and other officials in the west, and the decrees are just like the old system of my Wu country."

"No!"

Ji Za immediately agreed.

Wu implemented the county system in the west, which was a last resort!

Fortunately, the territory of Wu is not too large, and it is more than enough to set up counties to govern the local government.

"King, the old minister thinks that the garrison of 15,000 people in the West is too much, and some should be abolished!"

Ji Za said again: "The current standing army of my Wu State is more than 60,000 people, and it is suitable for war, but it is too bloated in peacetime. ”

"Please issue an edict from the king to abolish part of the standing army, so that it is reasonable!"

Qingji nodded and said, "Quasi-play!" ”

During the period of peaceful development, Wu did not need too many standing armies.

Because the real opponent of Wu is only Chu.

And now, the state of Chu is fighting to the death with the princes of the Central Plains, and has experienced a fiasco in the war with the state of Wu, and it may not be able to relieve its breath for several years.

Therefore, in a short period of time, Wu does not need to worry that the Chu people will fight back and then encounter a big battle.

The garrison of the western region needs at least 10,000 people, not including the garrisons of the various cities.

Immediately, Qingji discussed with a group of ministers.

Wu's standing army was 35,000 people, not including the 4,000 soldiers and horses raised by Zhong Wuguo and Xu, and 10,000 troops under Wu Zixu were stationed in the west in case of contingencies.

5,000 people were stationed in Huiji County, and 5,000 people were stationed in the Jianghuai area.

The remaining 15,000 people were stationed in the Wu mainland to defend the capital city to deal with any emergencies at any time.

The right prime minister Ji Ran said again: "The king, the minister thinks that my Wu country should take the new capital Jinling as the center, and connect the official roads to the four directions, especially the west and Huiji County, for my Wu country, I should vigorously build bridges and pave roads, dig waterways, so that the waterways and land routes are unimpeded, and the water and transportation are safe!" ”

"Quasi-play!"

Ji Ran's thoughts coincide with Qingji.

Whether it is the West Land or Huiji County, they all belong to the territory that Wu has just seized, and the people's hearts are not attached, and Qingji can't be too relieved after all.

It is natural to build bridges and pave roads and communicate waterways.

In this way, the connection between the capital and various places can be greatly strengthened, and the exchange of information can be exchanged.

In the event of a war, the standing army stationed in the capital can also rush to the front line as soon as possible.

Speaking of Jinling, Qingji suddenly asked, "Dazai, I wonder when the widow can move the capital to Jinling?" ”

"Return to the king, by August this year at the latest, the king can move the capital!"

Ji Za replied solemnly.

After all, moving the capital is not a trivial matter, and everything needs to be done in place.

Qingji bowed his head slightly and said, "Good." The widow is scheduled to move the capital to Jinling in October this year, and Dazai chooses an auspicious day, and the pawn is responsible for sending envoys to the countries and inviting the envoys of the countries to enter Jinling to watch the ceremony! ”

"No!"

Ji Za and Bo Yi immediately agreed.

Qingji gave them enough time to prepare.

Immediately afterwards, Qingji issued an edict again, and promoted Huiji County Cheng Kongqiu to the county guard, and Sun Wu, Wen Chong and others who originally served in Huiji County could also return to the dynasty and follow the matter of moving the capital.

……

Wu Wang's Harem.

Qingji and his wife and children are holding a family banquet, such as Ji Ko, Zhu Ji, Ji Mi and other concubines, as well as Wu Xi, Wu Hong, Wu Heng and other children are sitting together.

According to etiquette, of course, there is a rule of not saying a word, but Qingji didn't take it to heart at all.

The food that should be eaten, the drink that should be drunk, and the chat that should be chatted, of course, are limited to Qingji asking questions, and then others answering.

After all, in order to celebrate the majesty of the present, even his wife and children are in awe.

"Hong'er, come and sit."

Qingji beckoned to his eldest son, Wu Hong.

At this time, Qingji had nine sons, namely: Wu Hong, the eldest son of Shu, who was born like a dream;

second son Wu Xi, Zhu Jisheng;

The eldest son (third son) Wu Heng, Ji Kosheng;

the fourth son, Wu Qi, the little fox;

The fifth son, Wu Fa, is a little raccoon dog;

the sixth son, Wu Bang, Sun Lisheng;

The seventh son, Wu Wei, Zhu Jisheng;

eighth son Wu Zhang, Ji Kosheng;

Nine sons Wu Xun, Teng Yusheng.

Among the nine sons, Qingji's favorite is Wu Hong.

"Father."

Wu Hong hurriedly came to Qingji's side and sat down.

Seeing Qingji treating Wu Hong like this, the surrounding Teng Yu, Sun Li and other women, as well as several younger brothers, couldn't help but cast envious and jealous eyes.

Even Queen Ji Ko, who was sitting on the side, had an unnatural face.

is just the eldest son, and he is actually looked at so differently by Qingji, doesn't this make Ji Ko respond?

If she, the queen, had no heirs, it would be fine, but Ji Ko gave birth to two sons for Qingji, and she didn't even see Qingji take a look!

This made Ji Ko look at Qingji with some resentment.

"Hong'er, how are your studies lately?"

Qingji asked with a smile.

At this time, Wu Hong was six years old, and Qingji had already found an enlightenment teacher for his three-year-old son, preaching and receiving karma to solve doubts, so it was no wonder that Qingji would ask such a question.

Wu Hong hurriedly got up and bowed to Qingji: "Back to my father, the child is stupid, he only knows how to write some simple words and memorize a few ancient poems. ”

"Wang, Hong'er has an excellent memory, and has been praised by Mr. in recent days."

On the side of the dream busy road.

"Oh, Hong'er, can you recite Guan Ju?"
