During the meeting with Wang Daotian, Fang Hao got a lot of news that he had never known before, which attracted Fang Hao's attention.
After returning to the Tai'an City Palace, they immediately found Wei Huang and Shen Yutang.
The two of them stood in front of Fang Hao and were about to bow and salute, but Fang Hao directly waved his hand and said: "No need, Shen Yutang, Wei Huang, I will let you Jiuyang Divine Sect be responsible for collecting all kinds of news from the world. Is there any important situation?"
No?"
Wei Huang said: "Your Majesty, I haven't found any special news. However, in each of the nine states, a powerful empire has risen, and wars have broken out. It is very fierce. In addition, the Tongtian Gate that your Majesty has focused our attention on is in the other states.
, but no information was found, as if Tongtianmen is only within our Daqin territory."
When Fang Hao heard this, he looked serious and said: "Shen Yutang, what about you?"
"Your Majesty, I have been responsible for the political affairs of Da Qin and have not paid attention to intelligence news." Shen Yutang lowered his head and said.
Indeed, Shen Yutang, as one of the eight political ministers, was busy with government affairs, so it was understandable that he did not know clearly.
Immediately, Fang Hao said solemnly: "Jiuyang Divine Sect mobilize your manpower to sneak into Shenming Sect and investigate various actions of Shenming Sect. I got the news that Shenming Sect is merging various sects in Jiuzhou, and behind Shenming Sect
, there seems to be an extremely special force, let me investigate it all!"
But at this moment, Wei Huang and Shen Yutang looked embarrassed.
Seeing this, Fang Hao suddenly realized that the Shenming Sect might have really underestimated him.
As expected, Shen Yutang smiled bitterly and said: "Your Majesty, the Shenming Sect's sphere of influence cannot be penetrated by our Jiuyang Sect at all, and people from various sects have also entered the Shenming Sect's scope of strength. Their control is extremely strict, and all the people are members of the Shenming Sect.
Once our followers, our people, inquire about information, they will be discovered and it will be difficult to investigate."
Wei Huang also said: "Your Majesty, the Shenming Sect is extremely closed to the management of the jurisdiction. There are no other sects among their people, and ordinary people only know about the Shenming Sect and not others. We have tried to investigate
, but they all failed.”
"Is this Shenming Sect so capable?" Fang Hao's face became slightly serious.
Fang Hao didn't care at all about the fighting power of the Shenming Sect, but the Shenming Sect was actually able to turn a state into a country that combined politics and religion, and implemented closed management of the people in the country.
It is indeed difficult for an outsider to investigate in such a country where all the people are brainwashed. A state has been turned into an iron barrel by the Shenming Sect!
Suddenly, Fang Hao thought of something and his eyes flashed: "In the Kingdom of God built by Shenming Sect, does it have Jiuzhou Tonghao and Sitong Pavilion?"
Shen Yutang and Wei Huang were stunned for a moment, and then Wei Huang's eyes lit up: "Yes, there are both Jiuzhou Tongtonghao and Sitong Pavilion!"
Shen Yutang came directly: "Your Majesty, I understand!"
"Well, go make arrangements quickly and investigate the Shenming Sect thoroughly as soon as possible!" Fang Hao said solemnly.
"Yes, I am resigning!"
After the two left, Xue Xian came over.
Xue Xian is still so noble, looking as if he has been twenty years old. Xue Xian knows that Fang Hao has always disliked red tape, so he slightly cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, the entire territory of Youzhou is already in the hands of our Great Qin, but it is such a huge territory.
We need to send a large number of officials who we feel can be trusted to manage government affairs."
After hearing this, Fang Hao smiled and said, "Elder Xue, what do you think?"
Xue Xian looked serious and said in a deep voice: "I think that the whole territory of Youzhou can be divided into sixty provinces, and each five provinces can be assigned a governor to take charge. In this way, the military and political officials of the five provinces can be handed over to
The governor is selected and then reported to the court."
After hearing this, Fang Hao frowned and said: "That means we need twelve governors, and let each governor select his own officials. Then the scope of the five provinces will almost be decided by the governor himself. Is that what you mean?"
"If you want real quick control, this is the fastest way. Of course, the governor must be chosen by someone your Majesty can trust!" Xue Xian nodded.
Fang Hao frowned and thought for a moment, then asked another question: "Is the title system ready?"
Xue Xian was stunned and said strangely: "After discussion, I and your empress have formulated a title system."
"Okay, then, according to your previous division, divide it into sixty provinces, and combine the five provinces into one county. Set up a governor's office to manage the people's livelihood in the county. In addition, eight ministers will work together to make great contributions to the Qin Dynasty in the past.
Please write a list of all the people who have done so, and be careful to indicate what contributions they have made. Let Chang Jun and Yang Shu report the list to the military department themselves," Fang Hao said.
Xue Xian was stunned: "The governor looks for it from these lists?"
Fang Hao shook his head and said: "You eight political ministers will decide on the choice of governor by yourselves, and the list will be given to me directly for approval."
"good!"
In the next few days, Xue Xian, Shen Yutang and others returned to the Holy City. Soon, the three-point list appeared in Fang Hao's hands.
A candidate for the governor, selected by the eight ministers, naturally represents the people from all their forces, including the Jiuyang Divine Sect, the Yushou Sect, the Gongye Family, the Blood Evil Sect, the Demon Sect, and the Fang Family Army.
Fang Hao didn't think much of it, he agreed directly and gave it to Yun Feifei to draft the decree.
The next list is of people with outstanding merits selected by the eight ministers. On the road of Qin's expansion, ministers in the rear court also emerged in large numbers.
After Fang Hao saw it, he didn't recognize some of the people. After all, he had too little time to interfere in state affairs.
Fang Hao handed the list to Yun Feifei: "Give it to Xue Xian and others, and let them decide on the rewards for these people according to the title and merit system!"
"Okay." Yun Feifei took it over and looked at it herself.
The last list is the most important, that is, the soldiers on the front line. Da Qin is now called Qiang Qin by Jiuzhou. In addition to Fang Hao's own reputation, there is also the fact that Da Qin's army has been invincible so far and has never been defeated once.
defeat.
All the above are generals, and Fang Hao personally annotated them.
Some of them were awarded the title of General Feng Guo, General Fu Guo, and General Zhen Guo. The titles of these generals were mainly based on the size of their achievements. Fang Hao didn't care who they belonged to or who had contact with that force.
Only generals with these names can be called generals.
Further up, there are three great titles: count, marquis, and duke. Each title is divided into three levels: third-class, second-class, first-class earl, and the same goes for marquis and duke.
The remaining ones are the kings, and there are only two levels, the two-character king and the one-character king.
According to the detailed system of meritorious service required for knighthood, among the lists brought by Yang Shu and Chang Jun, the highest ones who could be crowned as first-class marquis were Yang Shu and Chang Jun.
Because the title system agreed upon by the Qin Dynasty is very harsh and requires great merit. Of course, once the meritorious service is rewarded, the power status cannot be compared with that of the princes of some small countries.
Therefore, Fang Hao gave part of the territory of the twelve counties of Youzhou to the meritorious officials of the Crazy Earl Marquis.
Among them, Yang Shu and Chang Jun were each awarded a county seat and fief.
The rest range from one province to four provinces.
Moreover, the fiefdoms were all concentrated in the west near the Guangming River. (To be continued)
