After completing the enthronement ceremony, Liu Bei, with the support of the ministers, has officially become the new son of heaven of the Han Dynasty.

After becoming the Son of Heaven of the Han Dynasty, Liu Bei, who was on the altar, was going to prepare to issue his first edict of the Son of Heaven.

The first edict of the Son of Heaven after the re-establishment of the Han Dynasty was to change the yuan.

Because Liu Bei's claim to be emperor is legally to inherit the foundation of the two Han Dynasty, Liu Bei does not need to change Zhengshuo, clothing color, official system, etc.

What's more, in order to reflect the legitimacy of his claim to be the emperor, Liu Bei can't move these aspects.

But in order to reflect the succession of the new emperor, there is one aspect that Liu Bei must change, and that is the era name.

The era name is a symbol that distinguishes the new monarch from the previous monarch after his accession to the throne, and it is also a political slogan that reflects the new monarch's succession.

For example, the year name of the anti-Wei emperor Cao Pi is Huang Chu, Huang is the positive color of Wei, and Huang Chu means Cao Pi's self-proclaimed as the founder of Cao Wei.

As for the era name, many ministers made many suggestions to Liu Bei before today.

Among them, there is an era name, which was recommended by Zhuge Liang, Xu Jing and other ministers, and that era name is Jianxing.

The establishment of a prosperous dynasty is for the sake of prosperity.

But this era name does not meet Liu Bei's wishes.

Looking at the ministers under the altar, Liu Bei opened his mouth and issued his first edict of the Son of Heaven:

"Spread the edict to the Quartet, I changed the yuan to Zhangwu, and this year is the first year of Zhangwu.

When the edict arrives, there will be amnesty everywhere it goes!"

The ministers under the altar guessed that Liu Bei's first edict would be to change the yuan, but they didn't expect that Liu Bei did not choose the most popular Jianxing era name, but came up with an era name - Zhang Wu himself.

Zhangtong "Zhang", the meaning of Zhangwu is to highlight the martial arts.

Liu Bei named Zhang Wu as his era name, which was to declare his determination to be the "heir and second ancestor" to the people of the world.

After the edict of amnesty was issued, Liu Bei, as the emperor, issued a new edict.

"Establish a temple and sacrifice to the emperor below."

Liu Bei inherited the legal system of the Han Dynasty with the legal principles of the Han family, so this is also reasonable, and it is a necessary means for him to demonstrate his legitimacy.

After the above two edicts were issued, Liu Bei had to take the most important step, that is, the vassals.

Although Liu Bei is the emperor who inherited the law of the Han family, the legal system of the Han family was once broken in Xudu, so Liu Bei is essentially creating a dynasty today.

After the establishment of the dynasty, the corresponding bureaucratic system was also established.

This is the key to ensuring that the "Ji Han" founded by Liu Bei can thrive.

When Zhuge Liang persuaded him before, he said to Liu Bei that the reason why most of the courtiers would follow him was nothing more than the mentality of climbing the dragon and attaching the phoenix.

Therefore, the step of rewarding the ministers is very crucial, which can greatly enhance the minister's loyalty and sense of belonging to Liu Bei.

Liu Bei naturally knew this, so he already had a draft in his heart about how to reward the ministers.

At present, among the 100 official positions in the central court, of course, the position of prime minister is the most important.

According to the Han system, Xiangguo was originally the most powerful and noble official position under the emperor.

However, because the power of Xiangguo was too great, it was gradually vacated by the Han emperors of successive dynasties.

Under these circumstances, the power of the prime minister, who was originally the deputy of the prime minister, began to rise gradually.

The power of the prime minister can be summed up in eight words: "The son of heaven is in charge, and the assistant is ten thousand opportunities."

For such an urgent position, Liu Bei already had a suitable candidate in his heart.

That person was Zhuge Liang.

As the hero who helped him to the throne of the Son of Heaven, the relationship between Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang is very deep.

Moreover, since Liu Bei entered Yizhou, Zhuge Liang, who served as a military general, has actually become the "prime minister" in Liu Bei's forces.

When Liu Bei appointed Zhuge Liang as the prime minister in front of the ministers, after recording the book, although Zhuge Liang was a miscellaneous name

The general directly became the prime minister.

Although this means that Zhuge Liang will be the person who holds the largest administrative power in the country from today on, except for Liu Bei, there is no disbelief on the faces of the ministers.

Zhuge Liang's merits, Zhuge Liang's ability, and Zhuge Liang's virtue have been well-known over the years.

He assumed the position of prime minister of the Han Dynasty, which can be said to be expected by all.

And after Zhuge Liang heard that Liu Bei appointed him as prime minister, he calmly walked out of the ranks of the ministers and bowed to Liu Bei.

There was no joy on his face to be the prime minister, but it was not that he felt that the position of prime minister did not reflect his merits.

It's that he really doesn't have much enthusiasm for the position of prime minister that others dream of.

In his opinion, as long as he can help Liu Bei stabilize the world, then whether he is a miscellaneous general or a prime minister, this is no different to him.

After appointing Zhuge Liang as prime minister, Liu Bei began the appointment of the third duke.

The title of the Three Princes can be traced back to the Shang Dynasty at the earliest.

Sangong is not a fixed official title, he was originally just a general term for the highest position of a minister.

Therefore, for hundreds of years, the specific positions represented by the Three Princes have not been fixed.

The prime minister's strengthened version of the position of Xiangguo was one of the three princes at the earliest.

By the time of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the three dukes had become the general name of the three official positions.

These three official positions are Taiwei, Situ, and Sikong, among which the position of Taiwei ranks first.

It's just that although there were still three official positions in the Eastern Han Dynasty, after Liu Xiu established the Eastern Han Dynasty, he felt that the power of the three dukes was too great.

In order to strengthen the power of the emperor, he carried out a series of reforms to the official system.

In the early days, anyone who was ranked as the Three Dukes could open the government, and the Three Dukes were known as the Three Mansions.

However, after the reform of Emperor Guangwu of the Han Dynasty, Liu Xiu, although nominally the three dukes were still a high-status official position, the real power of the three dukes gradually returned to Shangshutai.

Later, Emperor He and Emperor An began, and relatives and eunuchs changed their autocratic power.

Relatives Dou Xian, Liang Ji, etc., all worship as generals, and the generals open the government and place their official subordinates, and they are located on the three dukes.

Since then, the three dukes have not only been subject to Shangshu, but also have to bow down to their relatives, and some of them are even their henchmen and cronies.

Originally, according to the scriptures, when Xiangguo assisted the Son of Heaven to manage yin and yang and shun the four times, if there were various disasters, the emperor and Xiangguo would blame themselves.

However, in the Eastern Han Dynasty, the emperor pushed the blame to the three dukes, so whenever there were floods and droughts, the three dukes were often deposed.

The Great Confucian Emperor once said that the Three Princes are in name only, "just reserves".

It's just that although the three princes no longer have much real power, the honor of the three princes is still there.

The Three Dukes are the face of the imperial court, and they are often held by the Great Confucian, in order to demonstrate the legitimacy and authority of the central court.

At present, in Liu Bei's forces, in terms of fame, only Xu Jing is suitable for the position of three dukes.

Therefore, Liu Bei worshiped Xu Jing in public as one of the three princes.

As for the Taiwei and Sikong among the Three Princes, because there is no suitable candidate for the time being, Liu Bei decided to put it aside.

After all, a face-facing position like Sangong would rather be lacking than excessive.

Like Cao Pi, he put Jia Xu in the position of captain, ranking above Hua Xin and Wang Lang, the two great Confucians, which has already caused many people in the world to laugh.

After Liu Bei worshiped Xu Jing as Situ, he officially worshiped Yu Ban as the general of Wei in public, and was named the Marquis of Yixiang, and shared 2,000 households in the past.

According to the traditional military positions of the Han Dynasty and the Han Dynasty, in the general system, the only important generals were the great generals, hussar generals, chariot generals, Wei generals, and Sifang generals.

Before Liu Bei, through the way of the above table, he will be banned from the table as General Wei and the Marquis of Yishou Pavilion.

It's just that the above table is never a formal appointment, and it is nominally difficult to convince the public.

Now that Liu Bei has become the Son of Heaven, he will use the power of the Son of Heaven to formally worship as General Wei and be named the Marquis of Yixiang.

Originally, Yu Ban was the Marquis of Yishou Pavilion, and the number of households enjoying food was 1,200.

Now Yu Ban is Liu

Beifeng was a righteous marquis, although they were all liehous, but the number of food towns increased by 800.

Under the rule of Liu Bei, who has a small population, this kind of reward is not low.

And the reason why Liu Bei was so high-profile in rewarding the ban was nothing more than wanting to make the ban a flaunt of abandoning the dark and turning to the light, and to show the scholars in the north.

When Liu Bei rewarded Xu Jing and Yu Ban, these two were not as sad or happy as Zhuge Liang, and they showed gratitude on their faces and thanked Liu Bei.

After rewarding Zhuge Liang, Xu Jing, and Yu Ban, Liu Bei issued a series of rewards.

The Anhan general Mi Zhu moved to Guangluxun, and the Han general Mi Fang moved to the imperial servant.

Guangluxun and the imperial servant are both one of the official positions of Jiuqing, because thanks to the help of the Mi clan in the East China Sea, Liu Bei's reward for the Mi brothers is not ambiguous at all.

If it weren't for the lack of Mi clan in the East China Sea, with the relationship between Mi Zhu and Liu Bei, and with Mi Zhu's merits, the position of the Three Princes would have a place for Mi Zhu.

But today's reward is not a light treatment for the Mi brothers.

Guangluxun: 2,000 stones in the ranks, ranked Jiuqing.

Zhonglang, Shilang, Langzhong, Huben, Yulin Zhonglang, are all under the jurisdiction of Guangluxun.

It can be said that Guangluxun is the supreme commander of Liu Bei's forbidden army.

Although Mi Zhu was unable to perform all the duties of Guangluxun due to physical reasons, Mi Zhu's son Mi Wei is now the general of the Tiger Ben Zhonglang.

In this case, Mi Zhu can hand over most of Guangluxun's responsibilities to Mi Wei.

And with Mi Zhu on top, Mi Wei can also quickly accumulate experience and lay the foundation for his further promotion in the future.

And Guangluxun also has a very important function, that is, he holds the right to select Lang officials.

And Langguan is an important channel for selecting officials in the traditional official system of the two Han Dynasty.

It can be said that Guangluxun is the combination of Cao Weizhong's leading army and the Zhonghu army.

Giving such an important position to Mi Zhu, Liu Bei was very relieved.

Taifu: 2,000 stones in the ranks, ranked in the ninth qing. The imperial servant was the official in charge of the emperor's vehicles and horses during the Qin and Han dynasties, and his responsibilities gradually changed to be in charge of the animal husbandry affairs of the government.

In the Western Han Dynasty, the seven counties of Wuwei, Longxi, Tianshui, Anding, Beidi, Shangjun and Xihe set up priests under the jurisdiction of the imperial servants, raising a total of 300,000 horses, as well as a large number of cattle and sheep for sacrifice.

In the Western Han Dynasty, the examination workers belonging to the Shaofu were transferred to the servants in the Eastern Han Dynasty, and their duties were to make bows, crossbows, swords, armor and other weapons, and also to weave ribbons and handymen.

Liu Bei asked Mi Fang to hold this position, one is to reward Mi Fang's past achievements, and the other is because he knows that although Mi Fang has no great talent, he has an extraordinary business talent.

Mi Fang's business talent will work wonders in the position of a servant.

For example, if he takes the land of Guanzhong in the future, Mi Fang can come in handy when trading horses with other races.

Even the raw materials for making bows and crossbow armor, Mi Fang can also use his strengths to obtain through trading with the alien races in Nanzhong.

As long as the Mi brothers can digest this reward well, then in a few years, the Mi family of the East China Sea will definitely become one of the top families in the Han Dynasty.

Even when Mi Yang took charge of the Mi family's lintel, with the background of his father and his own merits, Mi Yang could completely remove that one.

After rewarding the main personnel in Chengdu, Liu Bei asked the eunuch next to him to open a reward edict and read it aloud.

There are hundreds of officials in Chengdu, and under this kind of number, it is impossible for Liu Bei to reward them one by one.

The rewards he could read out in person were only for a small group of important people.

The rewards of most of the remaining officials in Chengdu, after today, Prime Minister Zhuge will naturally issue imperial orders one generation after another.

Now what Liu Bei asked the eunuch to read out was the reward for those who were not currently in Chengdu but had an important position in his heart.

Most of those people are generals who are outside the army.

And among those generals who command the army, who else can compare to Shangguan Yu's status in Liu Bei's heart?

Therefore, in this reward edict, Liu Bei's first person to reward was Guan Yu.

For Guan Yu's reward, many people have guessed correctly.

"Worship the former general Guan Yu as the general, seal the Marquis of Xiangyang, enjoy 3,000 households, and supervise the military of the East with festivals!"

Above and below the altar, there are hundreds of confessors.

Their duty is very simple, that is, whenever a new reward appears on the altar, they will loudly convey Liu Bei's reward up and down, so as to ensure that every minister can hear Liu Bei's reward.

When Liu Bei's reward for Guan Yu came out, the hundreds of ministers under the altar heard the news, although they had expected it in their hearts, but their faces still showed a huge look of envy.

Liu Bei's reward for the second half of Guan Yu is already extremely enviable.

But the most enviable thing is Guan Yu's position as a general.

The general, the supreme commander of the people's ministers.

The title of general began in the Warring States period, and it was the highest title of the general, which was placed in the Han Dynasty and was in charge of the army.

The first generation of the great general of the Han Dynasty was the soldier Han Xin.

Later, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Liu Che, took Wei Qing as the general, and stipulated that the general was the highest title of the general, which was on the three dukes, and all below the nine kings were worshipped.

Later, Huo Guang came to power in the name of General Sima, and his power was above the prime minister.

From then on, the general was actually the leader of the central government.

"Han Guanyi" contains: "Han Xing, the general, the prime minister."

"General Examination of Literature" cloud: "The general adheres to the national politics inside, and the outside is a special expedition, and his power is far beyond the right of the prime minister."

The general of the Eastern Han Dynasty was originally under the three dukes, and when he arrived at the Han Dynasty and the emperor, Dou Xian served as the general.

Because the emperors of the Eastern Han Dynasty had very little real power, the position of general was regarded as the standard for auxiliary ministers.

To put it bluntly, if Liu Bei has an accident, then the auxiliary minister will not be Zhuge Liang as the prime minister, but the general Guan Yu.

This is a custom formed since the Eastern Han Dynasty.

The great general can be said to be a well-deserved pinnacle of people and ministers in terms of name and power.

Liu Bei was keenly aware of the envious look on the faces of the ministers, and a smile appeared on his face.

His gaze couldn't help but drift to the location of Dongfang Jingzhou:

Who else but you is worthy of being my great general?

There's another chapter, rush.

Let's get a commuter pass.
