Xiliang Iron Cavalry

Chapter 649: Canonization

As for the highest official of the Shangshu Province, it has not been decided. The main reason is that if the Shangshusheng is really compared, the power is too great. It is in charge of the six departments and is responsible for execution. The power of the Shangshu Province has been weakened to a certain extent. Jia Rong still has no plan to completely release the power of the Shangshu Province. Instead, Zhang Li and Zhang Zhao will be in charge of the Shangshu Province, and the power has been counted. It's monstrous.

All the old people who followed Jia Rong were rewarded, and even the recent officials and generals were given official positions. After becoming emperor, unlike the princes of one party, official positions are the most indispensable thing in the country, but Jia Rong does not want his subordinates His official positions became complicated, but the simpler the better, that's why there will be no such thing as a king or a marquis in Daliang Kingdom for the time being. What Jia Rong has to do is to hold the power tightly in his hands .

The powers Jia Rong knew were, of course, the general administrative command and military power, both of which were indispensable, and there was a lone wolf, Heavenly Punishment, to assassinate the three teams secretly, so he was not afraid of the officials doing something secretly.

In the feudal era, communication technology was poor. Judging from the current rule of the Xiliang Army, it would take half a month at the fastest to deliver a letter from the grassland to Luoyang.

After the establishment of the country, it was natural to have a big banquet for the ministers, and the army also had a carnival for three days in a row. The city of Luoyang was decorated with lights and festoons to celebrate the establishment of Liangguo.

Walking in the palace, feeling the place where the emperors of the Han Dynasty lived, Jia Rong felt a pressure all over his body. Yes, it was pressure. After all, only those who inherited the great tradition could live here, and he was just a few years ago. A courtier of the great man.

"Do you count yourself as a traitor?" Jia Rong muttered secretly.

"Your Majesty, we are about to arrive at the Imperial Garden." A maid stepped forward and said, with a respectful and respectful demeanor, making it impossible to find any faults.

Jia Rong also knew that the emperor's house had many rules, so he nodded slightly and said, "Well, take me in for a walk."

The maid bowed and said yes.

Looking at the maids who were surrounded by the front and back, walking cautiously in front, I felt a little uncomfortable. He was a military commander, and he was fast and resolute in his work. This style of work obviously didn't suit him.

It was the cold winter season, and in the imperial garden, only a few plants were still sprouting green, and the rest were all dry branches.

"Fu'er?" Jia Rong shouted from a distance.

"Greetings to the emperor." After seeing Jia Rong, the maids beside Wei Fu immediately showed the results of the training, and all fell to their knees.

"Let's get back on your feet." Jia Rong said a little bit about these rules, and all the novelties at the beginning were wiped out. If this is the case, I will find a minister to discuss matters in the future. I am afraid that I will be paid a visit for a long time, otherwise I will be informed by the Ministry of Rites. All the talk, the people in the Ministry of Rites are dedicated to finding fault, especially after the country has just been established, all etiquette must be in place.

"Fu'er, it's so cold, why are you here?" Jia Rong asked.

"Your Majesty, I, I" Wei Fu didn't know how to address herself at such a moment.

"Okay, you are the queen of Zhen, just meet casually, don't be like those ministers, pay respects every now and then, shout long live three times or something." Jia Rong chuckled.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Wei Fu bowed.

"Fu'er, you don't need to be too polite when you and I meet each other in the future, or I will really lose my face." Jia Rong said seriously.

"Yes." Wei Fu replied with a smile, and she could see that Jia Rong didn't like this kind of stuff.

"Fu'er, what are you doing here?" Jia Rong asked again.

"It's the cold winter season. I didn't expect there to be flowers blooming in the imperial garden, so I came to take a look."

After Jia Rong became emperor, Wei Fu was conferred the title of empress in the first place, and her mother respected the world. Moreover, Wei Fu's performance for so many years, Jia Rong saw it in his eyes and kept it in his heart. There is no power struggle in the prince's family, and I am very relieved to hand over the harem to her. The rest of the wives have all received rewards. [

The next day, just after the morning court, there were officials playing.

"Report to Your Majesty, Cao Cao and Sun Quan sent people to send congratulatory gifts."

Jia Rong was slightly surprised. It is common sense for Sun Quan to send people to give congratulatory gifts. There is no need for Cao Cao to do this. Among the princes in the world, the Xiliang Army is Cao Jun. He became the emperor himself. Sending congratulatory gifts, could it be implying something.

"Well, I already know about this." Jia Rong said indifferently. After becoming an emperor, Jia Rong also grew an emperor's beard. Looking from a distance, he was angry and majestic.

"Your Majesty, there was a snowstorm in Liangzhou, causing the houses of many people to be crushed. I ask Your Majesty to rule on this matter."

"This matter will be handled by the Minister of the Household Department."

Afterwards, Jia Rong had a taste of what the life of an emperor was like, he would never let you have free time, there were things everywhere, even trivial matters, these courtiers would bring them to the court to talk about them , Jia Rong secretly blamed himself for suppressing the power of Shangshu Province, otherwise, he would not have to worry about everything. In less than half a month, the two brothers Zhang Li and Zhang Zhao restored the power of Chang'an. It is a busy life, and officials have no shortage of opinions on this.

"Jia Rong ascended the throne as emperor, and Liu Qi is also emperor. I am afraid that these two emperors will meet each other sooner or later." Cao Cao stroked his beard and said word by word.

"My lord's words are true. It's just that the Xiliang army borders our army. With Jia Rong's character, it is difficult for the two armies to fight."

"No, don't you know that there is a navy in Jingzhou. If it goes along the Yangtze River, Liu Biao's army will definitely be able to attack the Xiliang army. Don't forget how the Xiliang soldiers defeated Yuan Shao and occupied the entire Jizhou. Liu Qi is the emperor. , it is expected that the Xiliang army will attack them first."

"My lord, it is no child's play for Jia Rong to become emperor. After so many years, Jia Rong has innumerable civil servants, counselors and generals, and the morale of the army is at its peak. If things go on like this, I'm afraid it will be bad." Only way.

"Oh, what do you mean?" Cao Cao questioned.

"Fight quickly with Liu Bei, or unite with Liu Bei and Jiangdong Sun Quan to contain the Xiliang army, otherwise our three families will be annexed by the Xiliang army sooner or later." Xi Zhicai said what he had been holding back for a long time. Strength, indeed, has the ability to make a decision with Jia Rong, but after the battle of Jingzhou, Cao Jun lost nearly [-] elites, and his vitality was greatly injured. There will be no war within two years, but the Xiliang Army is not the same, and they will be defeated without paying much price. Occupying Jizhou, he got a lot of food, grass, materials and talents. Sometimes Xi Zhicai envied Jia Rong's luck, having so many generals and so many sharp weapons.

"My lord, Master Xi's words are justified. If we don't unite with Liu Bei and others, I'm afraid that Yanzhou will be attacked by the Xiliang army. Now that Jia Rong has just ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, he is bound to make a great contribution and set the capital in Luoyang. , and even closer to our army." Man Chong said.

"Mr. Man, go to Jiangdong as an envoy, persuade Jiangdong Sun Quan, and secretly unite." Cao Cao gave the order after a moment of thought.

"No, the humble job will definitely fulfill the mission." Man Chong cupped his hands.

From the bottom of his heart, Cao Cao didn't want to join forces with Liu Bei, but under the general trend, he could only make a false appointment with Liu Bei temporarily, and when Cao Cao regained his strength a little, Liu Bei would be the first to strike.

After Jia Rong ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, he did not reward the famous princes in the world like Liu Biao did. He seemed to be his own emperor and regarded other princes as traitors and traitors. This made other princes a little bit dissatisfied. However, due to the strength of the Xiliang Army, no one dared to say anything.

After the new year, Jia Rong named the year as Kaiyuan. This year was the first year of Kaiyuan. The turmoil in Luoyang, the capital of the Xiliang army, gradually subsided. When the princes mentioned the emperor of Luoyang, they might grit their teeth, and the merchants would It's different. As the political and cultural center of Great Liang, Luoyang's commercial prosperity has faintly surpassed that of Chang'an in the past. Of course, there are some merchants in Chang'an, and the grassland trade with the countries of the Western Regions has been maintained. The everlasting scene.

In the first early court after the new year, quelling other rebellions in the world was also put on the agenda by the ministers. After all, the Xiliang army has reached its peak national strength after successive recuperations. Even the previous battle with the Jizhou army did not deplete its vitality.

However, these memorials were all denied by Jia Rong. He was waiting, waiting for an opportunity where Cao Cao and others could not even get food. Didn’t the other party also have a bank? In addition, Jingzhou's inflation has become inflated, and the money in the hands of common people and merchants is worthless, so they are willing to store the money in Xiliang Bank, so that the reputation of the princes among the people will be ruined. , Change it to heavy coins, so Cao Jun will fall into the situation of treasury money in a short period of time, unless they issue banknotes to soldiers in the army as military pay, if they do this, it may cause soldiers to panic The mutiny, the soldiers worked so hard on the battlefield, but in the end the military pay was a pair of waste papers, one can imagine the feeling in my heart.

Controlling these things has become a bit easier for Jia Rong today. It is not like many years ago when the Xiliang Army was only a powerful vassal in a corner, but now it has a strong army in its hands and governs prosperity.

Secretly warn merchants not to trade with Yanzhou, causing Yanzhou's goods to expand in a short period of time.

Among the six ministries in the three provinces, the Ministry of Industry is in charge of craftsmen's workshops, and the minister of the Ministry of Industry is Pu Yuan. This person who has made great contributions to the Xiliang Army, although Pu Yuan himself has some flaws, but the flaws are not concealed. Even if he is outstanding, it is impossible to shake his position in the craftsman's workshop.

As a descendant of Lu Ban, Lu Huan provided the Xiliang Army with advanced equipment many times, and was appointed as the minister of the Ministry of Industry by Jia Rong. In this era, a craftsman who relied on craftsmanship was very low and had no status. Under Liang Jun's rule, this system was completely overturned. To a certain extent, this also led to an upsurge of learning craftsmanship under Liang's rule. As long as you have craftsmanship, you don't have to worry about not having a source of income.
