As for what kind of official position Da Sima is, how can Tian Sui Tho not know?

"Zhou Li" is divided into six officials: heaven, earth, spring, summer, autumn and winter, and the summer official mansion is set up, with the great Sima Qing as the main official.

There are military commanders, staff, officials, priests, assistants, left and right martial arts, military departments, big drivers, division right, driving departments, Musashi 12 middle doctors and division doctors, as well as the subordinate officials of all doctors.

In the Tang Yu Shang and Zhou eras, the great Sima was in charge of military affairs, and in normal times, the great Sima was still placed in case of preparedness and was responsible for daily military and administrative affairs.

For example, the Yellow Emperor was the great Sima Rongguang, and the Western Zhou Dynasty was the great Sima Jiang Ziya.

Tian Sui Tho was the Great Sima when he was in the Qi Kingdom!

The system of three princes and nine secretaries of Wu is different from the official system of the kingdom of Tianxia, but this "big Sima" is an official position in charge of the country's soldiers and horses, which can be described as a high authority.

Tian Sui Tho, who has just arrived, how dare he really serve as the great Sima of Wu State?

"Tian Qing must not shirk."

Qingji said with a pleasant face: "The widow knows Tian Qing's ability, and with your ability, he can assume the position of the Great Sima and take charge of the military of Wu State, which is more than enough." ”

"The king, the minister really doesn't dare to steal the position of the great Sima."

Tian Sui Tho lowered his head and said: "Wu is full of talents, and those with profound qualifications do not know how many, how can Sui Tho be virtuous, and occupy such a high position with an unsuccessful body?" ”

"Please think twice!"

Seeing Tian Sui Tho's stubborn refusal to accept the position of Great Sima, Qingji was not reluctant.

However, how to treat Tian Sui Tho and give him a suitable position is something that Qingji must consider.

Tian Sui Tho's entry into Wu was a last resort.

Whether he can really work for Qingji is worth studying.

"That's fine. Tian Qing, since you insist on resigning, the widow will retreat and grant Qingjun the position of Sima, how about it? ”

"Thank you, King!"

Tian Sui Tho immediately agreed.

However, for the 500 households in Jinling, Tian Sui Tho did not dare to ask for it.

After all, in the state of Wu, the "stingy" Qingji is very tight about fiefdom food or something.

Not to mention other ministers, the words of military attachés generally need to make certain military exploits before they can be rewarded with a certain amount of food!

……

The time entered the tenth year of King Qingji of Wu, that is, in the first month of 504 BC.

At this time, the territory of Wu reached a new round of heyday, and there were ten counties in Wu State, namely: Wu County, Huiji County, Jiujiang County, Surabaya County, Minzhong County, Lujiang County, Cangwu County, Nanhai County, Xiang County and Guilin County.

With a radius of thousands of miles, it seems to have surpassed the Jin State and the Chu State, and has become the most extensive vassal state among the Chinese countries!

However, with the exception of the four counties of Wu proper, such as Minzhong County, Lujiang County, Cangwu County, Nanhai County, Xiang County, and Guilin County (the six counties of Lingnan), they were actually only subjugated to Wu, not ruled in the true sense.

For the six counties of Lingnan, Wu implemented a policy of restraint.

The state of Wu recognized the status of the monarch and chief of the land and allowed it to be hereditary.

However, if the monarch and chief want to inherit the throne, they need to be recognized by the king of Wu and granted the seal edict before they can be justified.

Just like Zhou Tianzi's partition of vassal states.

The county guards, county commanders, and county lieutenants of the six counties of Lingnan were all appointed by King Wu to serve as scholars.

The rest of the subordinate officers can choose by themselves.

In the land of Lingnan, all monarchs and chiefs are the feudal kings of Wu, who are called ministers and pay tribute every year, and must fulfill the obligation to send troops to the king of Wu and retain the right of autonomy, but at the same time, they should also cooperate with the local county guards and govern affairs.

Moreover, there are 10,000 troops stationed in the six counties of Lingnan in case of contingencies.

The garrison was half Wu and half indigenous.

It is worth mentioning that at this time, Sun Wu, the original general of the southern expedition, had returned to Jinling.

Qingji officially canonized his concubine Sun Li as the general of Zhennan, increased the title of governor, and controlled the military of the six counties of Lingnan.

Such power is very great, if it is an ordinary person, Qingji is not at ease.

Fortunately, Qingji can trust Sun Li.

The six counties of Lingnan have basically been incorporated into the territory of Wu, but there are many unruly tribes that have not yet surrendered, so it will take a certain amount of time to conquer those Yue tribes.

For Sun Wu, who returned to the dynasty after victory, Qingji also fulfilled his promise and allowed his father and grandson to retreat to the second line, and was crowned Taibao, responsible for teaching Zhu Gongzi's studies.

Sun Wu was also promoted to the rank of Grand Sima, and at the same time awarded the title of "Zuo Shu Chang" for military merit.

In the current state of Wu, Sun Wu's left chief is already the highest military merit title!

The population of Wu is also increasing rapidly, in addition to the annual newborns, they also enter Wu from other vassal states, as well as Li Shu in the six counties of Lingnan.

According to the latest census data, the population of Wu has reached 3.5 million.

Again, this is conservative data!

At the same time, the agriculture of Wu is also very developed, thanks to Qingji's policy of "emphasizing agriculture and suppressing business" and rewarding farming and warfare in recent years, Li Shu at the bottom takes labor as the glory and adds a lot of grain to Wu.

However, the commerce of Wu was equally prosperous, no less than in the past.

Among them, the most significant is the salt industry in Wu State.

With the "reclamation and drying method of salt making" taught by Qingji, the salt making workshops in various parts of Wu not only doubled the output, but also greatly improved the quality, almost all of which were refined salt.

Under the operation of Shi Fan Li of Zhisu Nei, the salt industry of Wu developed magnificently, and a large number of exports were exported, from the beginning to occupy a place in the Central Plains, and now it is enough to compete with the salt industry of Qi.

Even faintly have the upper hand!

I believe that in a few years, Wu's salt will be able to completely squeeze Qi's salt out of the market and take the lead.

……

Fengtian Temple.

Qingji was wearing a dark crown and a flat crown, sitting on the throne, a posture of not being angry and arrogant, spontaneously.

Under the majestic platform, on both sides stood the ministers of Wu Guo wearing court clothes and holding tooth wat in hand.

They are all a solemn demeanor, looking at the nose, nose and mouth, and mouth and heart, looking like one statue after another.

The monarchs and ministers of the state of Wu put on such a posture at this time, and they were naturally greeting the envoys of other countries.

The envoys of ordinary countries are not worth the effort of the Wu State, but the envoys of the Jin State are a special case.

Who was the minister of the Jin State who sent an envoy to Wu this time?

"Foreign minister Shi Mimu (Zhao Ying) see Wu Hou!"

Under the majestic platform, there stood two middle-aged men wearing long crowns and crimson official robes.

Shi Mimu, who has been an envoy to Wu State, knows Qingji.

But Zhao Ying is the first time I've seen Qingji!

"Two, don't be polite."

Qingji waved his hand and said: "Shibo and Zhao Qing came from afar, and the widow has missed the welcome, don't blame it." ”

Wu Hou laughed.

Shi Mimu bowed.

Jin Guo can be said to have given Wu Guo enough face this time.

Who is Shimimu?

The magistrate of the Jin State, who was in charge of the punishment and the matter, was equivalent to the court lieutenant of the Wu State.

Zhao Ying's identity is even more remarkable.

Zhao Ying is one of the six kings of the Jin Kingdom, the suzerain of the Zhao clan, and he is in a high position!
