Great Qin had a prosperous age

Chapter 428: Redefining the territory of Guanzhong (please give me a monthly recommendation ticket!)

The next day.

When the morning sun sprinkled golden powder on the palace walls, all kinds of birds came out of their nests. When the sun lifted its body and reached the mountainside, the ministers had already arrived in front of the palace gate one after another.

Fusu came to court to discuss politics for the first time.

The emperor personally went to court for the first time today after seven days of mourning for the late emperor.

In fact, Ying Zheng visited Guanzhong many times, and every time he visited Xianyang, the prime minister was in charge of Guanzhong.This meeting has not been held normally for a long time.

Especially in the past six months, the Dazheng Hall has often been closed, with no one entering or leaving.

The beams in the hall have long been covered with dust, and they were only thoroughly cleaned yesterday.

The ministers are still in mourning for the late emperor, and all of them are still wearing mourning clothes.

Fusu originally felt that there was nothing unreasonable about wearing this mourning dress, but now that he looked at the white clothes underneath, he suddenly felt that it was inappropriate.

After the pilgrimage, Fusu cut to the chase and said directly:
"I know that all the ministers in the court miss the late emperor, and they all wear plain clothes to express their grief. However, the late emperor has passed away. I think that instead of wearing plain clothes, it is better for the monarch and his ministers to work together to handle the political affairs of the court. This is the way to go. I can comfort the spirit of the late emperor in heaven. Therefore, I believe that since the seven days have passed, the ministers do not need to wear plain clothes in the future. I hope that in the future, all ministers will perform their duties and assist me in stabilizing the world and continuing the rule of the country."

The implication is, stop thinking about the late emperor and do your best to assist the new emperor.

After hearing this, many ministers naturally understood.

At this time, everyone turned their attention to Feng Quji.

Ying Zheng was away from Xianyang City for half a year, so Prime Minister Feng Quji's status became higher and higher.

The second generation's words and actions have deeply moved Feng Quji.

Feng Quji took the initiative to step forward and said:
"What your Majesty said is true. I will be out of service soon."

Wang Wu of Fengchang, who is in charge of important etiquette affairs, also stepped forward and said:
"Seven days have passed. According to the rules of etiquette, we and other courtiers should indeed wear court uniforms to come to court."

The Prime Minister and the Shangqing sang in harmony, and several officials who originally wanted to object to this matter also looked at me and hoped that you would keep silent in the end.

Meng Tian's expression was solemn, and it was hard for him to object again at this time.

What Meng Tian is worried about now is that the emperor is worried that Meng Tian has a high position and does not want to reuse the Meng family.

What Fusu is worried about now is that Meng Tian feels that he has neglected their Meng family.

Fusu knew very well what killing Meng Tian meant to the soldiers of the empire.

After Fusu glanced past the Meng brothers, Fusu took the initiative and asked:

"Something has started."

At this time, even if something happened, they didn't think about what to say. For many people, going to court today was just to see how the emperor and the prime minister interacted.

Almost everyone knew about the Prime Minister's visit to the palace to admonish him in just one night.

Looking at the prime minister's obedient appearance now, others will naturally know what is going on when they see him.

Fusu looked at the court and looked around. Most of them were old ministers.

It's just that among these old ministers, there are not many ministers like Mao Jiao and Dun Ruo in the past.

And there are still as many generals as before.

A hint of disappointment naturally flashed through Fusu's eyes. The empire needed some fresh blood.

The Prime Minister took the initiative and said:
"Your Majesty, I have something to say."

"What's the matter with the prime minister?"

"Now His Majesty has just come to the throne, but the distant land has not yet settled. Last year, we had to rely on the late Emperor to patrol the world to achieve stability. Now that the late Emperor has passed away, and the situation has changed, someone will definitely come out to cause chaos again. I thought we should prepare for a rainy day and strike preemptively."

As soon as this remark came out, all the ministers naturally echoed.

"The minister waits for a second opinion."

Fusu waved his hand, indicating that he understood.

"I have always been uneasy about this matter. After thinking about it again and again, I decided to redefine the Guanzhong area when the new dynasty was first established. The original Zhao area, Han area, and the western region of Chu were all Guanzhong areas."

"As for Yan, Wei, Qi, and Jiangdong, I have decided to grant titles to the princes and generals who have made meritorious deeds in the past and suppress them."

"Not only that, I want to mobilize the army from all directions to return to Guanzhong to garrison."

"I recently made the minister a minister, thinking that I was planning it. This is only a preliminary discussion, and it still needs further discussion by the courtiers. I will hand this matter over to the ministers for deliberation today."

"If there is nothing else to do, let's retreat today."

The prime minister hesitated for a while, and then took the initiative to lead the ministers in bowing.

"I will send you to Your Majesty."

No one expected that the early morning would end so quickly.

Meng Tian and Meng Yi walked out side by side.

Li Xin looked at the two brothers, naturally envious.

One is a guard captain, with a very high status and a title, while the other is a court captain, ranking in the ninth rank.I think Li Xin also came from a wealthy family in Longxi, but his ancestors did not have the status of Meng Ao and Meng Wu.

But his military exploits were much higher than Meng Tian's, but now, he was not doing as well as he did every day.

Meng Tian was also full of doubts. He did not expect that His Majesty the Emperor would be so firm on this matter. However, this method was obviously very effective. It not only eased the old household registration hierarchy, but also quietly won more dominion.

And even the enfeoffment is not as abrupt as before.

It's not that the ministers have no objections, but that this method can really silence everyone, and the ministers really have no reason to object.

The emperor's mind was very firm, and he still wanted him to return to Guanzhong to garrison.

Meng Tian has already realized this.

It's just that this is not the place to talk in detail with his brother.

The two brothers had just left the main hall and walked a few steps along the corridor, when they met Shen Yu, the minister of the Shangshutai.

"Tingwei stay here, His Majesty has something to call Tingwei to Shangshutai."

Meng Yi was naturally surprised when he heard this.

This was the first time the new emperor summoned him.

"Servant Sir, please lead the way."

Meng Yi said and looked at his brother, but he had already taken a reassurance.

Meng Yi used to be by Ying Zheng's side all the time, but now this kind of treatment seems to be coming back.

Meng Tian stayed where he was. He felt that maybe he was thinking too much.

Also, the new emperor is not the former emperor after all...

If not, why would the late emperor order him to assist the new emperor?

All matters discussed in the court, especially those concerning enfeoffment, were deeply regarded by all the princes as good.

These people could not wait to go to Zhangtai Palace to thank Fusu immediately to express their gratitude for his profound righteousness.

In the corridor, these old ministers surrounded the prime minister.

"Prime Minister, I think this matter does not need to be discussed further and can be implemented immediately. Now that the new emperor has ascended the throne, it is a good time to change the system. Not only that, the border areas can be supplemented by enfeoffment, which can completely solve the original household registration level problem."

Feng Jie followed these officials and couldn't say a word.

But it can be seen that no one will object to His Majesty's decision this time.

(At the end of the month, ask for a monthly ticket recommendation ticket, thank you everyone!)
　I hope everyone will be patient.

　　The transition of political power is very troublesome.

　　Moreover, Fusu's father was the First Emperor, and his influence could never be eliminated within a month or two.
