Chapter 490

"Azhao..."

"Zichen, stop talking." Wu Zhao interrupted Song Zichen, and Song Zichen laughed and said, "Did you agree?"

"I can help you, but I have to ask you how many people you want." Song Zichen talked about this, and he couldn't refuse.

"No problem, tell me." Song Zichen looked at Wu Zhao happily, as long as he agreed to be the regent, let alone a few people, he could give him dozens of people.

"I want you to transfer Mr. Shi, County Magistrate Xu, Uncle and Uncle Aping to the capital to help me."

Wu Zhao only needs four people, and this old Shi is Shi Yujiang. He and the other three are talented people. With their help, Wu Zhao can go to have fun easily.

"Azhao, you are getting more and more black-bellied."

Song Zichen squinted at Wu Zhao, he knew exactly what Wu Zhao was up to.

To be honest, if he were Wu Zhao, he would not want to stay in the palace either. There are many rules in this palace and there is no freedom.

"You have won the prize. In terms of black belly, the two of you dare to admit that you are the second, and no one dares to admit that you are the first."

Wu Zhao laughed and said, "Every one of you is in pairs, and your life is happy, and I am alone."

"I'll choose a concubine for you, but you don't agree."

"I'm joking with you, I still think it's better to be single."

Wu Zhao smiled wryly in his heart, he already had someone in his heart, for her happiness, he should sacrifice his freedom.

"You guys are tired after driving for more than ten days. Go back and rest first, and leave the rest to me." Wu Zhao asked Song Zichen and the others to have a good sleep, and he helped them arrange the rest.

"Okay, we're really sleepy." Song Zichen nodded, and took Jinxuan to the bedroom to rest.

Liu Hong's work efficiency was very high. On the night of the second day of junior high school, he set the day for enthronement.

When he went to the morning court the next day, he told Song Zichen that Song Zichen would hold a grand enthronement ceremony on the eighth day of the lunar new year.

"My dear friends, I have an important announcement to make." Song Zichen decided to confirm Wu Zhao's political status in public.

"Your Majesty, you are the king of a country. If you have anything to say, just speak up." Liu Hong spoke as a representative of the veteran.

"I decided to designate Wu Zhao as the regent, and let him handle all the government affairs of Xiling on my behalf. If you have anything to do in the future, you can consult him."

As soon as Song Zichen finished speaking, the people below started talking. They knew that Wu Zhao and Song Zichen had a good relationship, but they didn't expect Song Zichen to value Wu Zhao so much.

If it were someone else, they wouldn't want to do it.

"In addition to canonizing Wu Zhao as the regent, I have to do another big thing."

"What's the big deal?"

"I have decided to reform the official position in Xiling."

"Your Majesty, do you want to adopt Nan'an's official system?" A courtier asked.

"That's right!" Song Zichen replied.

"Then, does Your Majesty have any candidates for the prime minister?"

These courtiers also want to be promoted and make a fortune, and the left and right prime ministers are under one person and above ten thousand people, and everyone wants to be one.

"The candidates for the left and right prime ministers are the former imperial historian Shi Yujiang and the county magistrate Xu Dingpin of Xingyang County." Everyone had no objection to Song Zichen's promotion of Shi Yujiang, but everyone was dissatisfied with his promotion of Xu county magistrate.

Of course, they only dared to complain a few words in their hearts. If they were Song Zichen, they would also reuse meritorious ministers.

"You can speak freely if you have any opinions."

Song Zichen glanced at the crowd coldly, and they all said in unison: "I have no objection."

"The positions of Lou Tianshuo and others are vacant, and there must be suitable people to replace them." Song Zichen planned to reward those who have made meritorious deeds. The people who are most qualified to be crowned princes include his adoptive father Song Ping, Duke Zhen, and Qiu. Cheng, Uncle Shao, Ding Feng.

Song Ping is his adoptive father, and he will definitely repay him well.

As for Qiu Cheng, Uncle Shao, and Ding Feng, he planned to make them Dukes of the State, while Ge Zilin, He Dong, Kang Yiming, Tu Baocheng and others would be given the title of Lord Marquis.

"Dear dears, come here first today, and discuss other matters tomorrow." Song Zichen wanted to go back and draw up a list, and then adjust the positions in the court.

"Sir, is everything going well today?" Song Zichen went down to court, and after returning to Longgan Palace, Jinxuan poured him a cup of hot tea.

"It's going well. The day of ascension to the throne has been set, which is on the eighth day of the first lunar month. As for the affairs of Emperor Qian and Situ Nan, Ah Zhao is in charge, so I don't have to worry." Song Zichen wanted to discuss with Jinxuan about awarding meritorious ministers Son.

"Today is the third day of junior high school, and there are only four or five days left. We have to find someone from the Shangfu Bureau to make dragon robes." Jinxuan thought it would be after the Lantern Festival.

"After we finish our meal, people from the Shangfu Bureau will come to measure the size."

Song Zichen picked up a piece of pastry and fed it to Jinxuan.

"My lady, I plan to make Father and Grandpa Wu princes."

"I have no objection." Zhen Guogong is a direct minister of Emperor Zhao, and Jinxuan has no objection. As for Song Ping, he is Song Zichen's adoptive father, and the kindness in nurturing him is greater than heaven, and she has no objection to making him king.

"What about the title, what title do you plan to give?" Jinxuan asked.

It's not bad to use place names as titles, Song Zichen said with a smile: "Grandfather Wu and father took Jiangyang together, so we will make grandpa Wu the king of Jiangyang and father the king of Pingyang."

"I suggest giving Brother Wu a title." There is a difference between having a title and not having a title. Jinxuan thought of a good title, and she suggested that Song Zichen make Wu Zhao King of Ling'an.

"Sir, do you think it's okay?"

"Yes!" Song Zichen moved his position, sat next to Jinxuan, took Jinxuan's hand and kissed it on his lips.

"My lady, my uncle has the talent for governing the country. I plan to make him the Duke of the state and make him the same level as Uncle Shao, Qiu Cheng and Ding Feng."

"Xiling is your territory, you decide for yourself."

This morning, Jinxuan didn't go to court with Song Zichen because she was thinking of Song Zichen. To the people of Xiling, she was just an outsider, and those ministers were worried that she would take away the land of Xiling.

"On the day of enthronement, after finishing this matter, I will take you back to Beichuan to meet Xiao Han'er and the others."

For Song Zichen, the place with Jinxuan is his home.

They chatted for a while, then went to rest.

On the fourth day of the first lunar month in the 31st year of Tianyou, Wu Zhao personally escorted Emperor Qian and Situ Nan to parade the streets. As they expected, Emperor Qian and Situ Nan were beaten to death by the people in public.

On the eighth day of the first lunar month in the 31st year of Tianyou, Song Zichen changed his name to Situ Chen and successfully ascended the throne. The first thing he did when he ascended the throne was to reward meritorious ministers. According to the list drawn up by him and Jinxuan, three kings with different surnames (Wu Zhao The Regent, King Jiangyang of Zhen Guogong, King Pingyang of Song Dynasty, his wife Xiao Ruyi was granted the title of first-rank imperial concubine Pingyang), four Dukes of the country (Hu Yanshu: Shan Guogong, Shao Shu was originally named Shao Qi, Qi Guogong, Qiu Cheng- Qing Guogong, Ding Fengxiu Guogong, their titles come from the characters of Qi family governing the country and the world), nine marquises (the ten marquises are Ge Zilin Zhongjinghou, Tu Baocheng Zhongyihou, Kang Yiming Zhongqinghou, He Dongzhongxinhou, Sun Kaizhongrenhou, Chaiyuan Zhongzhihou, Liu Wuzhonglihou, Longxun Zhongyonghou, Gu Hengzhongshanhou, among them Chaiyuan is from Ye Qingyang, Liu Wu and Longxun are former subordinates of Zhen Guogong, others They were all talents who were rewarded after Song Zichen's careful consideration).

As for the meritorious ministers in the local area, they will be promoted to three ranks in a row, and they will be rewarded with a thousand taels of gold and a hundred pieces of brocade.

Qu Liang, Shi Jiaju, Zhao Yan, Ba Ruinian, and Wu Xing will be the new Ministers of the Household Department, Minister of the Ministry of Industry, Minister of the Ministry of War, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, and the official commander and deputy commander of the Imperial Guard.

They are all talents selected by Song Zichen, his wife and Wu Zhao, and all of them come from innocent backgrounds and are highly talented.

Except for officials who did not make mistakes, all the former courtiers were replaced by Song Zichen.

As for the dead soldiers with military merits, they will stay in the local area as magistrates and continue to serve the court.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, Gong Yuan, Prime Minister of Dongyan, has sent a greeting card, asking for peace with Xiling."

When it was time to go down to court, soldiers outside the hall sent an urgent letter saying that the Dongyan people originally planned to marry Situ Nan, but after Situ Nan died, they changed their minds and decided to marry their princess to Song Zichen.

The letter was sent to Song Zichen, and Song Zichen opened it, and immediately became angry: the old emperor of Dongyan offered five cities as a dowry gift, and asked Song Zichen and his youngest daughter Su Jiyun to be noble concubines.
