In the afternoon sunshine, a large number of soldiers and horses escorted a lot of baggage to the outside of Xuchang City.
It is already late autumn, and most of the greenery between the sky and the earth has receded. Looking around the surrounding fields, there is an inexplicable sense of desolation. The soldiers walking outside the city are carrying a bit of dust, and their faces cannot hide their tiredness.
Along the way, there were no ambushes or assassinations, but there were a lot of troubles. Monsters were accidentally attracted two or three times, and the slightly desolate place seemed to have become the world of monsters.
For humans, this is obviously not a good thing.
"Maybe there were some before, but not so many." Seeing Chen Gong still looking so gloomy, Chu Nan said a word of relief.
"What I am worried about is not these wild monsters." Chen Gong sighed, looked at Chu Nan and said, "These monsters are all transformed from ordinary livestock. Will the beasts in the city be the same?"
Chu Nan is actually more concerned about the changes in people. They are all creatures in this world. There is no reason for beasts to evolve into monsters, but humans do not. In recent days, several soldiers in the army suddenly gained supernatural powers and became extremely powerful.
Chu Nan specially let people try it, and the general strength of ordinary soldiers increased.
This is not just the evolution of beasts, people also began to become stronger than before during this period. Even if they have not awakened their divine power, their physical fitness will also improve to a certain extent.
Chu Nan couldn't tell whether this was a good thing or a bad thing, but these issues must be paid attention to.
The army stayed outside the city, and Chu Nan entered the city with the chariots and horses accompanying his family members. Many of the soldiers' family members were here. Chu Nan had ordered people to report in advance and asked Xuchang to prepare residences for these family members.
Xuchang City is still magnificent, but the sea of luck clouds above the city is a bit thinner than the last time I saw it. The golden dragon of luck in the sea of luck clouds can no longer be hidden. For someone like him who has the ability to look at qi, at a glance
You can see the Luck Golden Dragon lying lifelessly in the mist-like sea of clouds.
It still looked spectacular, but Chu Nan felt as if he was about to die.
The Han family's strength has probably come to an end.
Officials arranged by Lu Bu have long been responsible for the placement of these family members, because many of them are actually under surveillance, so the placement must be clearly recorded, so that both parties are relatively centralized for easy management.
"Gongtai, Ziyan!" Among the people who greeted them, Lu Bu stood out and enthusiastically welcomed Chen Gong and Chu Nan.
"Congratulations to Marquis Wen yet." Chen Gong just smiled faintly and nodded to Lu Bu.
"Father-in-law." Chu Nan cupped his fists and smiled.
He actually wanted to ask about Xuchang's current situation, but now was not the time to ask. The group of people followed Lu Bu into the inner city. Yan and Diao Chan returned to Lu Bu's mansion. Lu Bu naturally followed them back. Before leaving, they arranged for someone to
The two of them were taken to the government office.
When looking at the piles of files and listening to the officials' explanations, Chen Gong's complexion obviously changed a little, and Chu Nan's cheek muscles also twitched.
"So many files have been backlogged during this period?" Chu Nan couldn't believe it. Is there no one in Xuchang?
It seems that if Lu Bu doesn't do it, there will really be no one around.
Moreover, checking cultivated land and household registration are important matters, and I would not feel comfortable leaving them to others.
The two masters and disciples looked at each other and could see the speechlessness in each other's eyes. No wonder Lu Bu said that the banquet would not be held until three days later. He thought he was waiting for someone, but now it seems that he is overthinking it.
What else can we do? Just do it!
Chu Nan never dreamed that the first thing he would do after returning to Xuchang would be to deal with a mountain of official duties.
Fortunately, the two of them are not mortals now. Chu Nan is not only powerful, but also physically stronger than ordinary people. These files look a bit scary, but in fact, the contents recorded may not be too much.
The two masters and apprentices, plus Xue Ti, spent a day and a half filing these backlogged files of Lu Bu's approval.
During this period, the Yilang named Zhao Yan came once, but Chu Nan didn't keep him, and he didn't let him touch these things. Although they were cumbersome and boring, these things were the core of the New Deal.
"What are Zi Yan going to do next?" Stretching, Chen Gong looked at Chu Nan. The matter in Xuchang was actually done by Chu Nan. They have now taken over Cao Cao's position, but it only took a day and a half. Chen Gong
The palace can also feel that Xuchang is very chaotic.
In terms of governance, Lu Bu's power was completely separated from Cao Cao, occupying many real power departments, but they were not functioning at all.
"Decentralization of power." Chu Nan shook his neck and said. The thing is simple. Restructure the court and completely transfer the power of the court to their hands through the reorganization.
"How to divide it?" Chen Gongxiao asked.
"Previously, there was the Ministry of Punishment, which was responsible for laws and prison matters. In addition, there were the Ministry of Personnel, the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Household Affairs. The power of the court was divided into six departments, each with a Shangshu Ling, who had the same position as the Nine Ministers.
, or simply abandon Jiuqing." Chu Nan thought.
"Abandoning it is too much, at least it cannot be abolished right now." Chen Gong shook his head. The Three Gongs and Nine Ministers are the core of the imperial court. It will definitely not work to abolish them all at once. There are many people who oppose it, and it is impossible for everyone to adapt to these six parts immediately. I think
After thinking about it, Chen Gong said: "Don't do anything too hastily. You can first establish the six departments and run them for a period of time. If it is feasible, after the power is transferred, we can talk about the affairs of Jiu Qing."
Although Chen Gong did not know the specific functions of these six departments, judging from their names, many of their powers overlapped with those of the three ministers and nine ministers.
Chu Nan nodded. He had never thought about completely abolishing the old system at once. Jiu Qing would still be there for a long time to come.
Or it would be a good idea to integrate the six departments into the nine ministers. Of course, the most important thing now is to establish the six departments.
In addition, the Museum of Strange Persons also needs to be established in Xuchang, especially now that people with supernatural powers are beginning to appear in large numbers among the people. Many forces may not have noticed this yet. Their Museum of Strange Persons will recruit people from all over the world first, so that they can
Occupy a huge first-mover advantage.
As for the next step, Chu Nan hasn't thought about it yet.
The Hall of Strange People is just a prototype. As more and more people possess magical powers in the world, the Hall of Strange People will definitely establish a system in the future to allow the abilities of these strange people to be fully utilized.
"Who is Ziyan planning to appoint as the leader of the six divisions?" Chen Gong asked.
"There is a person under my account named Liu Ye. He is good at fortifications and can temporarily take charge of the Ministry of Industry." Chu Nan first decided on Liu Ye's position.
"I remember that this person is a clan member of the Han Dynasty." Chen Gong said with a slight frown.
Han clan clan will be very troublesome to use. Although many problems have not surfaced at the moment, now that Lu Bu has taken over Xuchang, there are some problems that must be faced. Lu Bu will also face many of Cao Cao's previous problems, among which the most important
This is the attitude towards the Han Dynasty.
After this battle, the prestige of the Han Dynasty dropped to a low point. To put it bluntly, the dignity of the Han Dynasty is now even worse than it was during Cao Cao's time, and it has reached the point where it exists in name only.
Will the use of Han clan clan at this time have any impact on the future? This has to be considered.
Chu Nan nodded and said: "Disciple has also thought about this matter, but Ziyang's talent is rare in the world. It would be a pity to abandon it because of this. Moreover, the Ministry of Industry does not have much real power. It can also represent us to the Han Dynasty to the outside world.
The most important thing is that Ziyang didn’t attach too much importance to the rise and fall of the Han Dynasty.”
"It's enough that Zi Yan knows what he's doing." Chen Gong nodded silently. Since the disciple already knew what he was doing, he didn't need to say anything more.
"The promotion, appointment and dismissal of the officials in charge of the Ministry of Personnel must be in hand, so I should take this position as a teacher." Chu Nan looked at Chen Gong and said, "What do you think, teacher?"
Chen Gong nodded, he had been doing this all along.
"What does the teacher think of this disciple who is in charge of the imperial court's talents and household registration in the world?" Chu Nan asked.
"This is what Ziyan is best at. Ziyan should be the one to take over." Chen Gong smiled and nodded. Chu Nan is best at property. Besides, in this reform, farmland and household registration are the top priorities.
Seriously, it is most suitable for Chu Nan to take charge of this position.
"The military department will be controlled by my father-in-law, or concurrently." Chu Nan said with a smile. Needless to say, the military power must be in the hands of Lu Bu and must not be left to others. Of course, a deputy position can be set up under Lu Bu, and Gao Shun will be in charge of it on weekdays.
Or Zhang Liao helps handle affairs.
"Can Gao Shun be in charge of the Ministry of Justice?" Chen Gong asked.
When he was in Xuzhou before, Gao Shun was in charge of the Ministry of Justice. However, Gao Shun's main job was to lead troops. In fact, Chen Gong felt that it was not suitable. The most suitable person for this position was the Legalist. Gao Shun could not take this position.
All the power is unleashed.
"The Ministry of Punishment and the Ministry of Rites are searching in the court. The disciple has chosen a person from the Ministry of Punishment, but he is still in prison. In the past two days, the disciple will go to see if he can convince this person." Chu Nan shook his head. The Ministry of Punishment was serious.
Be a sinner and not take your duties seriously.
Gao Shun is naturally competent, but Chu Nan doesn't want him to offend people too much.
As Chen Gong thought, Chu Nan also felt that the affairs of the Ministry of War should be handled by Legalists.
"Who?" Chen Gong asked curiously.
Since he is in prison, he must be from Cao Cao's old tribe, and he knows a lot about Cao Cao's old tribe.
"Many favors." Chu Nan said directly without pretending to be profound.
In Chen Gong's mind, a stereotyped face suddenly appeared. Man Chong was recruited by Cao Cao in the third year of Chu Ping. He was as annoying as Gao Shun, but this man acted ruthlessly and showed no mercy. Whose fault is it?
I don’t buy it either, it’s really suitable for this position.
He nodded silently and said: "This person is suitable, but he is an old minister of Cao Cao. Are you sure Zi Yan can convince him?"
This Man Chong is different from other weaklings. He is quite rigid. If he is unwilling to surrender, even putting a knife on the necks of his entire family will not force him to submit.
"It all depends on people. If you want to give it a try, disciple." Chu Nan shook his head. He determined the goal first, and then thought of a way to achieve it. He couldn't think it was impossible before he started.
As for the final candidates for the Ministry of Rites, there is no need to worry about this. There are a lot of suitable people in the court. Chu Nan is going to leave this position to the princes in the court to see who can kneel down~
