Chapter 802 Ten States and Two Prefectures
In 244 AD, the 22th year of Jianxing.

A few days after the banquet, Liu Chan formally issued an edict to make Jingzhao, Zuo Fengyi, and You Fufeng three assistants as Sili; The seven counties including Yongzhou, Longxi, etc. are Yongzhou, governing Tianshui Ji County, and governor Yang Xi.

The six prefectures of Hanzhong, Brazil, Badong, Fuling, and Jiangyang were Liangzhou, governed by Bajun Jiangzhou, and governor Fei Shi; the six counties of Qianwei, Hanjia, Guanghan, Zitong, and Zhuti were Yizhou, governed by Guanghan Luoxian County, governor Lu Yi; Yunnan, Yongchang, Jianning, Xinggu, and Yueyi are Ningzhou, and Ningwei County is built under the administration, and Zhang Yi is the governor.

According to the current division, the Great Han now has Liang, Yong, Jing, Xiang, Jiao, Yi, Ning, Liang, Sili, and Bing Shizhou, and there are two governors' mansions in Hehuang and Shuofang.

After the edict was issued, as the governor of the state entered various states and counties, under the leadership of Shangshutai and the left behind in Chengdu, the splitting of Yizhou began.

The hardest part to split up Yizhou should belong to Liangzhou. Yizhou itself has the framework of the governor's office, and it is enough to move the office.But Liangzhou is not the case. He needs to build a set of governor’s office framework by himself, and also needs to transfer the documents related to Badi County in Yizhou to Jiangzhou for storage, and communicate with the local county guards to ensure that they cooperate with his work. ..., and a series of trivial but critical matters such as this need to be weighed and grasped by Liangzhou Governor Fei Shi.

As for Ningzhou, it may be the simplest. Not only the government has not changed, but the number of officials has not changed much. Military and political affairs are still managed by the governor Zhang Yi, but their superiors are no longer Chengdu but Chang'an.If it is necessary for Chang'an to preside over the work, then let Shang Shutai preside over the work.As His Majesty, Liu Chan focused on other things.

In the hall, Liu Chan leaned against the table, blowing the cool breeze, and read the content played by the ministers.

"Your Majesty, there is a memorial from the Protectorate of the Western Regions!" Shan Tao came holding the memorial, and said, "Now the King of Shanshan has heard that our Han is strong, so he wishes to enclose it as a concubine for my Han county and county."

"Hmm!" Liu Chan took the memorial, looked at Zong Yu's documents, and couldn't help smiling.

Zong Yu is really clever. The last time the great Han conquered Jingzhou and Cao Rui died of illness in the army, Zong Yu presented Huanbu from the Western Regions, implying that Ji Han would rule the world and recast the prosperous age.

At that time, I called him to Chengdu, where the monarchs and ministers talked about affairs in the Western Regions.Because the Tarim River is about to divert, and the Western Regions are short of water, it may be unsustainable.Liu Chan made a decision with him to annex the Shanshan Kingdom and use it as the residence of the Imperial Guard of the Western Regions of the Han Dynasty.

Liu Chan put down the memorandum and said with a smile: "It is feasible to attach internally, but it is unnecessary to change it to prefectures and counties. Otherwise, the countries in the Western Regions may be afraid, and they can implement the national road policy in Shanshan. Let the Western Regions Protectors send officials to rule the country, and at the same time Take the official position of the government and let Shanshan be used by my big man."

There are more than 2000 households in Shanshan, with a population of 300 people, and more than 3000 people can be sent to fight.Historically, during the turmoil in the Western Jin Dynasty, it took the opportunity to grow bigger and annexed the countries of Ruoqiang, Xiaowan, Jingjue, and Qiemo, becoming one of the seven powers in the Western Regions.It was not until the Northern Wei Dynasty conquered Beiliang that the Shanshan Kingdom fell after 600 years, and finally belonged to the Northern Wei Dynasty and became Shanshan County in the Central Plains.

However, in this aspect, the Shanshan Kingdom declared its demise hundreds of years in advance, and the big man annexed it, which will become the starting point for the big man to go deep into the Western Regions, and strengthen the muscles and bones of the big man in the Western Regions.When the Central Plains is restored, let the countries in the Western Regions know what a big Han overlord is.

After a pause, Liu Chan continued: "The governor of the Western Regions has made great achievements in his rule, and he has expanded the territory for the great Han, and conferred the title of Marquis of Tingdu to encourage his achievements."

"No!" Shan Tao replied.

"Can Qing and his family adapt to life in Chang'an?" Liu Chan asked concerned.

Shan Tao expressed his gratitude, and he cupped his hands and replied: "I, my wife and children have gotten used to it, and now they are all stable. Thank you, Your Majesty, for your concern!"

"I'm afraid what Qing said is false!" Liu Chan pointed to the patch on Shan Tao's clothes and laughed.

Shan Tao looked down, adjusted his outer robe to cover it, and said: "Your Majesty is laughing!"

Liu Chan shook his head and said, "Where did the jokes come from? When I saw Qing like this, I felt ashamed. The minister is doing things for the king, and the king is still unable to protect the food and clothing of the minister. It is really my fault!"

"I will pay you a year's salary in advance, so that you can settle down. Next month, you will move to the prefect of Yinping, and the official salary of two thousand shi will be enough for the king. How about it?" Liu Chan said.

"Shortly after I first entered the Han Dynasty, I moved to the prefect of Yinping, fearing that I would lose His Majesty's sage." Shan Tao bowed and said humbly.

Liu Chan immediately made a final decision and said, "Whether you live up to it or not, you will know by looking at your future political achievements. If you can't manage Yinping well, I will think that I have misjudged you."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, Tao will certainly live up to His Majesty's expectations." Shan Tao knelt and kowtowed, and responded excitedly.

Shan Tao originally thought that Liu Chan would observe him for a while before appointing himself.Unexpectedly, in February, Liu Chan would boldly promote himself, maybe this is the hero!

If you treat me like a gentleman of the country, I will repay you as a gentleman of the country!

For Shan Tao's promotion, Liu Chan had already made a plan in the Yellow River.After the conversation that day, Liu Chan realized that Shan Tao, who claimed to be a commoner, did have the talents of the three men, and he had to train a little bit to succeed Situ.

As Jiang Wan grows old, choosing his successor is also on Liu Chan's agenda. Fei Yi, Ma Liang, Dong Yun, Guan Xing, Lu Yi and others are all on Liu Chan's list for inspection. mountain waves.

However, Shan Tao's qualifications are a very big problem. He entered the official position late and his qualifications are too shallow. If he succeeds Jiang Wan, he will be somewhat unqualified, and the officials of the Han Dynasty may not be convinced.

"Your Majesty, Zhuge Zhan and Du Yu are seeking an audience outside the hall!" the attendants reported as they entered the hall.

Shan Tao winked, and he cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty's family affairs, I will take my leave."

"good!"

Shan Tao stepped out of the hall, passing the two young men shoulder to shoulder.

Du Yu and Zhuge Zhan walked into the hall slowly, saluted Liu Chan, and said, "I pay homage to Your Majesty!"

Liu Chan raised his head to support him, and said with a smile, "Siyuan and Yuan Kai have been doing well in recent years?"

Zhuge Zhan did not rush, cupped his hands and replied: "Thank you for your concern. We will stay in the hut and observe filial piety, and everything will be as usual. I am not very happy to hear that your majesty has won the victory in Hedong."

Liu Chan looked at Zhuge Zhan a few times and nodded secretly. After being trained by Zhuge Liang for several years, Zhuge Zhan's temperament is still good.He married Du Yu and kept filial piety for three years, or he grew up under the influence of Du Yu.

After pondering for a while, Liu Chan asked, "How old is Siyuan? Is there any engagement?"

Zhuge Zhan's cheeks turned red, and he replied: "Your Majesty, the minister is eighteen, and he has been filial piety for three years and dare not get married."

Liu Chan raised the corners of his mouth and said with a smile: "Since that's the case, I have a daughter who is about the same age as Qing, why not be a princess?"

Although Liu Chan intended to ask, but in fact it was not as good as Zhuge Zhan's rebuttal.Liu Chan is not only the monarch, but also has a close relationship with Zhuge's family, and is also Zhuge Zhan's elder in terms of seniority.

Zhuge Zhan took a peek at Du Yu, who was making fun of him, and replied on his knees, "How dare I refuse, thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness!"

Liu Chan nodded slightly, and said with a smile: "In this case, I will issue an edict."

Liu Chan turned his attention to Du Yu again, and said, "Yuan Kai has become more and more stable, and it seems that he has improved after three years of hard study. I don't know if he is willing to participate in the military when he becomes an official this time? Or become an official minister? Serve for me."

"Your Majesty, I have little knowledge. I would like to serve as Shang Shulang first, and then discuss military affairs. This will be helpful to me." Du Yu said quite assertively.

"Yes, as you wish." Liu Chan responded readily.

For young talents like Du Yu who have their own plans, Liu Chan is more willing to help them, rather than to encourage them.Today's Liu Chan can quite understand why Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty loved Huo Qubing so much. It is really a series of famous generals.It is always so simple to develop the happiness of the system.

If one day, Liu Chan can meet with Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, it is estimated that they can talk for a long time when discussing the cultivation of generals.

In the end, Liu Chan chatted with the two of them for a little more, and told Du Yu to let him care more about his eldest daughter who was neglected because of his filial piety, and then let them go.
