Chapter 439 Official System
After Li Chongjiu established the State of Zhao in Youzhou, the official system of the State of Zhao was also established.

At that time, the officials in Youzhou had been discussing with him a long time ago, and those who had connections to see if their official positions had been promoted because of this.

After Wen Yanbo's Zhongshuling first confirmed it, the Youzhou gentry officials who came to congratulate him almost broke through the door of Wen Yanbo's house.

Wen Yanbo has been staying in Youzhou Governor's Mansion and did not come home. Wen Yanbo's two sons, Wen Zhen and Wen Ting, can only stand up for their father. Everyone congratulates them, and most of them want to ask whether their respective official positions have come down.

Wen Zhen, Wen Ting could only smile wryly when he heard that, although Wen Yanbo was appointed as Zhongshu Ling, the officials of the Zhongshu Province were not sure how to negotiate an official position, even if it was an official position, except for the fifth rank and above, most of them were only from the Minister of the Ministry of Education Ministry of officials led.

According to the system established by Li Chongjiu, in the future, the appointment, dismissal, and promotion of officials above the fifth grade will only take effect after the Zhongshu Province, Shangshu Sheng, and Yushitai have agreed together and submitted to Li Chongjiu for imperial approval.

But at present, none of the officials of Shangshu Province and Zhongshu Province have been appointed. In fact, it is Li Chongjiu who has the final say.

The first is the Zhongshu Province. The Zhongshu Province has one Zhongshu Ling, who is in charge of the military and state government orders.

The Zhongshu Ling was served by Wen Yanbo, the former governor of Youzhou Governor, and Wen Yanbo of Qixian County, Taiyuan.

Under the Zhongshu Order, there are two Zhongshu Assistant Ministers, who are the Second Officials of the Zhongshu Province, assisting the Zhongshu Order, and handling government orders and deliberations. They are designated as the third grade.

The servants of Zhongshu were formerly engaged in Langzhong in Youzhou Governor's Mansion, Ji Chuan from Guanlong, Junzi Jijiu in Governor's Mansion, and Xue Wanshu in Fenyin, Hedong.
Under Zhongshu Shilang, there are six people in Zhongshu Sheren, and all imperial edicts and regulations are issued by them, and they are designated as Zhengwupin.

All the people in Zhongshushe are either talented in writing or resourceful. Zhang Xuansu, a native of Puban in Hedong County, and Zhao Xin, the son of Zhao Heran, are in charge.

Zhongshu Sheng is equivalent to Li Chongjiu's small cabinet. The drafting of official documents is decided by Zhongshu Ling and Zhongshu Shilang.

Under Zhongshu Province, there are nearly a hundred officials, such as the main book, the main affairs, the history of the order, the history of the book order, and the biography system, etc., which will not be described one by one.

After Zhongshusheng was promoted, the former number one Shangshusheng retreated to the second place.

The Shangshu Province does not have a Shangshu Order, but has two servants on the left and right of the Shangshu.Shangshu Zuopushe, governs the Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of War, and the Ministry of Rites, and Shangshu Youpushe governs the Ministry of Households, the Ministry of Punishment, and the Ministry of Industry.It is designated as Cong Erpin.

Shangshu Zuo Pushe, former Sima of Youzhou Governor's Mansion, Chen Xiaoyi, a native of Hedong County.

Shangshu Youpushe is Wang Gui from Qixian County, Taiyuan County.

As soon as the decree came out, Zhongshu Sheng, Shangshu Sheng, and the three chiefs, who could be called Zhao Guo's three prime ministers, had all been made.

It is not surprising that Wen Yanbo and Chen Xiaoyi were appointed as Zhongshuling, Shangshu Zuopushe, but Wang Gui joined the army from the secretary's office of the governor's mansion, and was quickly promoted to Shangshuxing Youpushe, which surprised the officials.

But people with a discerning eye had expected that two months ago, King Yang of Qi married the daughter of the Wang family of Taiyuan as Princess Qi.

Since then, the Li family in Zhongshan, the Yang family in Hongnong, and the Wang family in Taiyuan have become in-laws.

Another interesting thing is that this time the three chancellors are all from Shanxi, and Wen Yanbo and Wang Gui are Li Chongjiu's hometown fellows from Taiyuan.Everyone privately speculates that this may be one of the reasons why Li Chongjiu assigned the country title to Zhao.

After the two servants of the Shangshu Province were settled, each subordinate had a prime minister, a doctor, a chief officer, and a Lingshi, an independent department to govern the three departments and twelve divisions under their respective command.

In the Sui Dynasty, the six Shangshu of Shangshu Province and the left and right servants of Shangshu were collectively called eight, which can be described as high-ranking and powerful.

Although the six ministers are designated as subordinate to the third grade, the affairs they are in charge of are all of great importance, especially the head of the six ministers, commonly known as Otsuka Zai, the appointment, dismissal, promotion, and transfer of officials. In fact, the power is so important that it is eye-catching. In theory, it is the fourth person in the civil service after the three Zaifu.

However, in order to control the power of the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, Li Chongjiu let the left servant of the Minister shoot Chen Xiaoyi and personally supervise the Ministry of Officials. The seventh rank is decided by Chen Xiaoyi, the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, and the doctor of the fourth division of the Ministry of Officials, and the lower rank of the seventh rank is decided by the Ministry of Officials themselves.

After such an arrangement, the power of the Ministry of Officials was greatly reduced, and finally Yang Linfu, the former prefect of Liaoxi County, took over.

The Ministry of Rites is in charge of etiquette, sacrifices, county examinations, county examinations and other government orders. There is one Minister of the Ministry of Rites, who is the former governor of Zhuojun County, and Gao Xudao of Jixian County in Zhuojun County.

The Ministry of Households is in charge of the decrees of Tianhu and Qiangu in each county, and there is one Minister of the Ministry of Households, and Lin Dangfeng, Jiangjun, Shanxi, is the Minister of the Ministry of Households.

Minister of the Ministry of Industry, in charge of craftsmen in various counties, and the decree of construction, there is one Minister of the Ministry of Industry, who is in charge of Bo, the former governor of Youzhou Governor's Mansion, and Zhao Heran of Jixian County, Zhuojun County.

The Minister of the Ministry of Punishment is in charge of the criminal laws of the counties and the decrees of clerkship, refusal, and confinement. There is one Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, and Xue Wanshu, the former secretary of the Governor's Office of Youzhou, is in charge.

Menxia Province, abolished Shizhong, and gave Huangmen Shilang only six admonishing doctors, who were responsible for reviewing the official documents of the six departments of Zhongshu Province.

In Yushitai, there is a doctor of Yushitai, who can be impeached if there is any disagreement among the officials.

Under the censor platform, there are two Zhongcheng and four censors. Xu Shiji's father, Xu Gai, is the sixth rank.

Guozijian, set up a Guozijian sacrificial wine, who is in charge of Zhou Xu, from the fourth grade.

Zhuojun, because the capital of Li Chongjiu Ding Wang was in Jixian, Zhuojun, so Zhuojun was equivalent to the land of Wangji.

Li Chongjiu renamed Zhuojun Prefecture as Zhuojun Prefecture, and Ji County as Youjing.

In addition to Zhuojun, Zhuojun Prefecture also controls the three counties of Anle County, Yuyang, and Shanggu.

And Taiyuan County was also upgraded to a mansion, and the Eastern Wei Dynasty and Northern Qi Dynasty established by Gao Huan Gaoyang and his son in Hebei Province were separated.Gao Huan opened the Overlord Mansion in Jinyang to control the government remotely. Although Taiyuan County was the accompanying capital, in fact, in order to preside over the war against the Northern Zhou Dynasty, Gao Huan spent far more time in Taiyuan than in Youzhou.

When Li Chongjiu uses troops against Li Tang in the future, he must attack Hedong. Taiyuan is the key point of Hedong. If you go east, you can reach the Yellow River and threaten Guanzhong.

What's more, Taiyuan is an important place for the turnover of soldiers, food and horses. The county with money and food, and Li Chongjiu's hometown, is no less important than Zhuo County.

Therefore, Li Chongjiu was also promoted to Taiyuan County as a mansion, and Su Su was the shepherd of Taiyuan Mansion. From the second grade, he controlled Taiyuan County and Yanmen Second County.

Xu Shiji, governor of Hedong Road, restrained Hengshan, Boling Second Commandery, and served as Minister of the Ministry of War. He was the third rank.

The prefect of Liaoxi County, and the captain of the county, Guo Xiaoke, the fourth rank, Guo Xiaoke replaced Yang Linfu as the prefect of Liaoxi County.

The sheriff of Shanggu County, Zhao Wansan, is the fourth rank.

The prefect of Yanmen County, concurrently the captain of the county, Gao Chu, is the fourth rank.

Ruoshui Prefecture Duhu Mansion, set up a Daduhu, who is in charge of affairs outside the Great Wall, and granted the right to make arbitrary decisions on the fly. Wang Junkuo is in charge, and he is the third rank.

Liu Yi, the former prefect of Anle County, served as the governor of the Dufu Mansion, and he was the fourth rank.

After the official system was established, the rules and regulations were also established.

This night in Youjing City, it was the time when the lights were first lit.

Zhao Guo founded the country and set the tripod in Youjing City. This city also has a royal air in the eyes of alchemists.

Before Li Chongjiu came to the throne, many local alchemists and ordinary people reported that they found auspiciousness.

The alchemist said that Youjing is full of purple air, and it looks like a dragon, with a canopy on the top and a square tripod on the bottom.

Some people picked up a stone of "The Destiny is in Youzhou", some people said that a unicorn was found on the west mountain, and some people said that they saw a phoenix singing in the East China Sea.

Each of them spoke in a very serious and affectionate manner, as if they were meeting each other for the first time.

Regarding this kind of matter, the Ministry of Education still dare not neglect to include them in the official documents one by one, and ask Li Chongjiu for instructions one by one.

Li Chongjiu just read it as the Classic of Mountains and Seas, and found it funny.

Unknowingly how much time passed, Li Chongjiu put down his pen from the desk. It turned out that the inkstone was frozen, and the servant who was guarding the charcoal fire by the brazier had already dozed off.

Li Chongjiu shook his head, picked up the tongs and turned the charcoal fire that was about to go out, and re-ignited it. The charcoal fire rekindled, and the room became warmer.

Li Chongjiu cheered up, and managed to finish correcting dozens of official documents sent by the Ministry of Education, and on this desk came a batch of memorials directly passed down by the governors of various counties.

Li Chongjiu glanced at it, thinking that he had never been so busy when he was the president before.I am afraid that only workaholics like Zhu Chongba can find fun in Gongwen Mountain.

After slandering for a while, Li Chongjiu picked up his pen again, and when he continued to fight in the official document, suddenly an outsider reported: "Report to the king, the boss is here."

Li Chongjiu was taken aback, and immediately pushed the official document aside, put on his clothes and strode out of the room.

It was freezing outside, and the snow was flying heavily. The guards in the corridor were patrolling with lights on. Li Chongjiu looked from a distance, and at the middle door, a familiar figure was wearing a thick fur, looking at the snowflakes falling in the courtyard.

Seeing the other party, Li Chongjiu hurried up and waited a dozen steps before slowing down.

"father!"

Li Chongjiu called out and saluted respectfully.

Li Hu turned around and saw Li Chongjiu's eyes warmed up, he laughed and said: "My son has grown up, and now he is king, father should salute you when he sees you."

Li Chongjiu said hastily: "Even if you become the emperor, father is still father. We don't have so many vain rituals between father and son."

Li Hu said: "No, I heard about Gaozu's father Liu Taigong. At that time, their father and son also greeted each other like us, but someone said to Liu Taigong that there will be no two days. Although the Taigong is the emperor's father, he is really a man. Minister, you can’t let the emperor pay homage to him. After Liu Taigong saw Gaozu, he greeted him respectfully at the door with a broom. This is the etiquette system.”

Li Chongjiu heard the words and said: "Father, if you never read books, some official must have told you, and I will deal with him severely."

Li Hu heard the words and said: "But it just happened to be heard, so there is no need to pursue it."

Li Chongjiu smiled and said: "Father, since you say that, forget it, but I'm afraid the story is not finished. Afterwards, Gao Zu made Liu Taigong the Supreme Emperor. Daddy, do you want to be the Supreme King too? "

Li Hu scolded after hearing this: "Nonsense, dad and I are already old."

Li Chongjiu laughed out loud when he heard this.
