When Luoyang was attacked, the army was like a bamboo, and it went straight to Luoyang, but when everything calmed down and was completely smooth, it was already three months later.

Zhao Mingyuan led the army to easily defeat Luoyang, Wang Shichong fled without a fight, and the news had already spread all over the world.

The majesty of the Wagang Army shocked the world.

This frightened the princes and tried to increase their strength. To a certain extent, it has also accelerated the process of reunifying the world.

In the past three months, Li Valve has swept away Xue Ju to the west of him and stabilized the rear.

After accepting Wang Shichong, he thought that his strength was enough, and he let him support the little emperor Zen position, calling himself the King of Tang, and began to call himself lonely.

With Li Yuan's beginning, all the princes did not show weakness and proclaimed themselves kings one after another.

Dou Jiande established himself as the emperor, and the country name was "Xia", and he was the leader of Hebei.

Yu Wenhua and established himself as the emperor in Wei County, with the country name "Xu" and the year name "Tianshou".

Liang Shidu united with the Turks and established himself as emperor, with the country name "Liang" and the year name "Yonglong".

Gao Kaidao called himself "Yan Wang", the year name was "Shixing", and the capital was Yuyang.

Xu Yuanlang captured Dongping and proclaimed himself "King of Lu".

Lin Shihong also established himself as the emperor, with the country name "Chu", the capital Yuzhang, and the year name "Taiping".

Li Zitong occupied Jiangdu and called himself "King of Chu", with the country name "Wu" and the year name "Ming Zheng".

Shen Faxing called himself "King of Liang", built the capital of Biling, and the year name of the establishment was "Yankang".

There is also Liu Wuzhou's attachment to the Turks and plotting for the imperial cause; Zhu Cang, the famous man-eating demon king, took advantage of the chaos and called himself "King Garuda"; Li Liang, Gao Kaidao, Wang Hua and other large and small forces are also eyeing each other, and they may be called kings and emperors at any time.

However, in just a few months, there was an endless stream of people in the world who said that they were lonely and widowed, and soon they exceeded the number of hands.

Under such a trend, Zhao Mingyuan also had to be affected by it.

In fact, when Luoyang was just laid, someone brought up the old matter again and asked Zhao Mingyuan to be king.

As soon as this proposal came out, it was unanimously approved by everyone.

After all, what is associated with the title of king is the establishment.

The main purpose of the royal system is to establish and maintain the status and authority of the ruler of a country, and to achieve the goal of unity, stability and governance of the country.

Called the Wang system, this also means that Zhao Mingyuan is going to pull up a court structure, and everything will be formalized. It's no longer the grass platform team with only a few people running like it used to be.

This also means that everyone has to be promoted to a knighthood and rewarded for meritorious deeds.

How could anyone object to such a thing?

Even Zhao Mingyuan couldn't disobey the will of the people.

At the beginning, Zhao Mingyuan could also postpone the matter on the grounds that the military and political affairs were in chaos at the beginning of the war. But with the princes of the Quartet claiming to be kings one after another, and the generals under his command came to see him one after another, he could no longer refuse.

In this case, Zhao Mingyuan couldn't be left behind, and finally agreed.

It's not that he wants to taste the taste of being a lonely widow, but this matter has become a trend, and many princes whose strength is far inferior to him have already claimed the king, and it is not good for him to delay any longer.

After all, many diplomatic discussions and exchanges, others call themselves kings, but Zhao Mingyuan still claims to be a handsome, isn't that a head shorter than others?

Diplomacy is no trivial matter, and the so-called improper name is not good, and naturally we cannot be careless in this regard.

Moreover, the king can also give confidence to everyone under his command, saying that he is determined to be in the world and will not be like Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling.

Moreover, after the official was knighted, the soldiers were more motivated.

Since you have decided to be king, you must first choose a suitable name.

This name is not simple, and it is even very likely that it will be the name of the future country, which will be passed down for hundreds of years, so it cannot be easily determined.

So, Zhao Mingyuan made people discuss, and the news spread, and suddenly, the government and the opposition were discussing.

According to the geographical location of Luoyang, some people named Zheng, which seems to be the name of a small country here in the Spring and Autumn Period.

Only then did Zhao Mingyuan understand why in the original fate, when Wang Shichong was called king, he was called King Zheng, which turned out to be this kind of origin.

This country name doesn't sound like a long-term appearance, and Zhao Mingyuan didn't let people discuss it, so he directly vetoed it.

Then some people proposed to set the name of the country as Song, and in the future, Zhao Mingyuan would be the king of Song, and the country established would be the Great Song Dynasty.

Hearing Da Song, he almost made Zhao Mingyuan angry.

Although his surname is also Zhao, how can he become the king of Song.

This Great Song Dynasty is about to appear hundreds of years in advance, what's going on?

If he really became the king of Song, he would have to depress Zhao Mingyuan to death.

Although the Great Song Dynasty has also been passed down for hundreds of years, it is not a short-lived dynasty in history.

But Zhao Mingyuan would rather be called King Zheng than King Song, that would be too unlucky!

Zhao Mingyuan hurriedly asked the reason, and then he learned that there was a country named Song in the Spring and Autumn Period, which was in the east of Zheng Guo, and now it is also Zhao Mingyuan's territory.

The Song Kingdom is the source of Chinese sage culture, Confucius, Mozi, Zhuangzi and Huizi are all from the Song Kingdom, is the core of Chinese traditional Chinese culture of Confucianism, Moism, Taoism and the birthplace of the four major thoughts, known as the "State of Etiquette".

But no matter what the origin of the Song Kingdom was, this title was naturally directly vetoed by Zhao Mingyuan, and there was no room for relaxation.

Even if Qin Tianjian said that the name of Song has been used for hundreds of years, Zhao Mingyuan did not hesitate.

Some people also suggested that Wei could be used as the name of the country, because Wagangzhai raised troops in the territory of the ancient Wei Kingdom, which was regarded as the land of Longxing to determine the name of the country.

Although there has never been a big country with Wei as the name of the country, it is at least much better than Song.

Therefore, Zhao Mingyuan did not directly veto it, but kept it for backup to see if there was anything better.

Since most of the country names are named after those countries that once existed during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, some people naturally suggest that it is better to directly set the country name as Zhao.

This is the origin of the surname Zhao, and it can barely reflect Zhao Mingyuan's extraordinary origin, which is the original royal family.

After all, Zhao Guo is also one of the Seven Heroes of the Warring States, and calling this title is not an insult.

But since the state of Zhao has been mentioned, naturally some people have taken the opportunity to mention that the country is named Qin.

The monarch of the Qin State was originally surnamed Zhao, and Zhao Mingyuan wanted to inherit this national name, which is also justified, and there is nothing that cannot be done.

After all, Great Qin unified the six countries, and it was much more powerful and domineering than the Zhao State. Moreover, as the first unified dynasty, the Qin State was far from being comparable to the Zhao State.

Perhaps, the only drawback of naming the country as Qin is that Great Qin has a bad reputation.

After all, for hundreds of years, the reputation of Tyranny Qin has been known almost all over the world.

And the death of Yang II of Sui was because of Yang Guang's great achievements, Guang built a palace, built the Grand Canal, and conquered Goryeo three times. Many people say that Yang Guang had the wind of violent Qin, which led to the demise of the Great Sui.

Therefore, if Zhao Mingyuan named the country Qin, maybe someone would make a fuss about it. I am afraid that under the instigation of people with intentions, I will be misunderstood by the people and think that Zhao Mingyuan is also a tyrannical king.

That's a problem.

Of course, there is another problem for Zhao Mingyuan, that is, after Li Yuan established himself as the king of Tang, he once named Li Shimin the king of Qin.

If you want to be called the King of Qin, you always feel as if you have been taken advantage of.

How can this work?

Therefore, although the country was named Qin and he called himself the King of Qin, Zhao Mingyuan was also a little moved, but in the end it was shelved.

In the end, he decided on an unexpected, but logical title, that is the Ming Dynasty, and Zhao Mingyuan is also known as the King of Ming.

Although he was called Ming Shuai before, Zhao Mingyuan only thought it was a temporary transitional title, but he didn't want someone to mention it at this time. It may become the name of its own king, or even the name of an entire dynasty.

Is this title good?

In fact, it's very good, Zhao Mingyuan likes it very much.

No harmony, no land, no vassals, no indemnity, the Son of Heaven guards the country, and the king dies.

This is the best evaluation of the Ming Dynasty, and it is also Zhao Mingyuan's favorite style.

Therefore, even if there seems to be a suspicion of picking up people's teeth and wisdom, Zhao Mingyuan also set the name of the country as Ming.

I hope that my Daming can also have such a backbone.

Then, Zhao Mingyuan was naturally also known as King Ming.

Well, this doesn't sound very good, and it always reminds Zhao Mingyuan of Hades, the king of Hades, and the king of the Great Wheel.

That's not a good idea!

However, among these options, this is indeed the one that Zhao Mingyuan wants.

Therefore, Zhao Mingyuan did not change it again, and the king of Ming will be the king of Ming.

Since it is a system of kings, the name of the country is decided, and the system to be implemented by the state must naturally be established.

Zhao Mingyuan's choice is naturally also the cabinet system of the Ming Dynasty, so this country name is indeed appropriate.

The cabinet system of the Ming Dynasty was almost the pinnacle of the development of the political system of the feudal dynasty. Even if Emperor Jiajing did not go to court for decades, the world could still operate freely, which shows the superiority of this system.

In fact, this is not far from the modern cabinet system.

As for the Qing Dynasty after the explanation, although it was the pinnacle of the feudal dynasty's imperial system, it was only the pinnacle of the emperor's power.

Are those ministers still ministers?

It's just a group of kneeling minions on the ground, just echoing insects, without the style of a minister, and the entire court is just a word of the emperor.

This is not what Zhao Mingyuan wants.

Although the cabinet system weakened the imperial power, it also divided the duties of the prime minister into cabinet ministers, and checked and balanced each other, so that no one could dominate the country. Even the first assistant of the cabinet can't cover the sky with one hand.

Of course, the reason why Zhao Mingyuan used this system naturally has another benefit.

That is, with the cabinet here, Zhao Mingyuan, the emperor, will definitely not be too tired.

Zhao Mingyuan came to this world, although he did have the heart to save the people of the world, he did not want to be a faint king. But he is also not prepared to be bound to the palace by this throne.

The first batch of cabinet ministers are naturally Shen Luoyan, Xu Xingzhi, and Wei Zheng, with them, Zhao Mingyuan believes that even if he leaves Luoyang, there will be no mistakes.

Of course, since it is called the king system, it is natural to be rewarded for meritorious deeds.

All the civil and military generals naturally have rewards, and they are promoted and rich, so they don't mention it.
