Origin

After Wu Zhongyuan finished speaking, the three of them bowed their heads in silence, and no one answered.

"You don't tell me, I tell you," Wu Zhongyuan said in a deep voice, "You found out that Prince Jiang and Prince Li were showing signs of surrendering to the enemy, and you were familiar with my temper, and knew that I would not attack them unless it was absolutely necessary, so you took the wrong approach and misled and seduced them. They took action and then made secret arrangements to catch them all in one fell swoop and unify the three tribes at the minimum cost, so as to avoid a long and brutal crusade and buy us more time to prepare, isn't that right?"

After Wu Zhongyuan finished speaking, the three of them still did not answer. It was not that Wu Zhongyuan said something wrong, but that Wu Zhongyuan had never spoken to them in such a gloomy tone.

Wu Zhongyuan asked coldly, "How did you know that Prince Li was secretly communicating with the Gods? Where did the news come from? Why didn't I know about such an important thing?"

Wu Di hesitated and then said, "Returning to the Holy Spirit, we only have suspicions about this matter, and there is no real evidence."

"What is the reason for your suspicion? What news did the spies stationed in Jiuli City send back?" Wu Zhongyuan asked.

Wu Di nodded, "It's just some minor abnormalities. We contacted each other back and forth, and after deliberation, we suspected that Prince Li was secretly communicating with the Gods."

"How dare you hide such an important matter from me?" Wu Zhongyuan's face was very ugly. "I allow you to participate in political affairs because I respect you. I don't want you to overstep my authority and act arbitrarily!"

After Wu Zhongyuan finished speaking, Wu Di did not dare to answer the question. This crime was really serious and she couldn't bear it. But thinking about it carefully, she found that this matter was indeed suspected of stealing power.

"Your Majesty, this matter was my idea. Please punish me, Your Majesty." The old blind man said with a trembling voice.

"Sir, in your opinion, am I so stupid that I need you to make decisions for me in everything?" Wu Zhongyuan asked.

"Holy Master, I never meant this." The old blind man trembled in fear. He had always thought Wu Zhongyuan was very easy-going before, but at this moment he no longer thought so.

"You should have thought that if they launch a sneak attack, I will definitely bear the brunt. Why didn't you remind me? If I am assassinated, who will take charge?" Wu Zhongyuan looked at the old blind man coldly, "Sir, you have the blood of the King of the Bear Clan, you take charge. ?"

As soon as these words came out, the old blind man trembled like chaff, "Your Majesty, calm down, I swear to heaven, I will never be disloyal."

"Wu Di, you are the Jiuyin wizard. If I die in battle, will you be in charge?" Wu Zhongyuan looked at Wu Di again.

Wu Di whispered,

"Your Majesty, we are your guide, how can we be alienated from you? We almost made a big mistake this time. We regret and acknowledge our mistakes, so please don't say any more angry words."

Just as Wu Di said, Wu Zhongyuan was indeed speaking out of anger. If he really thought so, these three people would be dead by now.

"I have never doubted your loyalty, but your mistake is that you should not have made the decision for me. Your role is to fill in the gaps, not to lead the direction and control the overall situation." Wu Zhongyuan left his seat and stood up, "You almost trapped me in what happened today. It is unkind and unjust. In the future, you must remember that in order to achieve the goal, you can use means, but the means must not be justified. I can not do it Huangdi, I can do it wrongly Dawu, I will never become a despicable and shameless person in order to achieve any purpose. Villain, even if it is for the unification of the world, even if it is for the rise and fall of the human race."

After Wu Zhongyuan finished speaking, the three of them solemnly promised.

Wu Zhongyuan did not speak to them anymore, walked off the stage and walked out of the hall.

A group of internal officials and palace people were waiting outside the door, and the old man was also there. Seeing Wu Zhongyuan going out, the old man hurriedly greeted him, "Your Majesty... Your Majesty, please don't be angry. They share the joys and sorrows with you, how can they treat you so badly?" There are two minds.”

Wu Zhongyuan took a deep breath and stepped towards the front hall.

At this time, the old blind man and others were still kneeling in the hall. After hesitation, the old man stayed outside the main hall door and did not follow Wu Zhongyuan to the front hall.

Hearing the sound of the door closing behind him, Wu Zhongyuan turned around and said, "Don't close the door."

After hearing this, everyone hurriedly reopened the half-closed palace door.

Wu Zhongyuan went to the front hall to show Zhu Qianwei. Wu Dali was in Zhu Qianwei's room. Zhu Qianwei had woken up. His broken arm was wrapped with a thick layer of lavender silk, just like a broken arm. It's like a plaster cast.

Seeing Wu Zhongyuan arriving, Zhu Qianwei struggled to get up. Wu Zhongyuan hurriedly stepped forward to stop him, and turned to Wu Daliie who was standing aside and asked, "How long does it take to regenerate a broken arm?"

"Three days." Wu Dalie said.

"Sir." Zhu Qianwei was exhausted and weak.

"Qianwei Taixuan, His Majesty has been enthroned as the Yellow Emperor, so we should call him His Majesty." Wu Dalie reminded kindly.

"You are not outsiders. No one else is present, so there is no need to be polite." Wu Zhongyuan said casually.

"Your Majesty, I miss my old feelings, but the etiquette cannot be discarded." Wu Dalie said.

"You can rest in peace and recuperate, I have to go elsewhere," Wu Zhongyuan said to Zhu Qianwei. After saying that, he turned to look at Wu Dali, "Where are the injured subordinates of Prince Li and Prince Jiang now?"

"In the post house." Wu Dalie said.

"Let's go, take me there." Wu Zhongyuan turned around and went first.

Zhu Qianwei struggled to get up, "Farewell to the Holy Spirit..."

"I said, there is no need to be polite when there are no outsiders present." Wu Zhongyuan interrupted Zhu Qianwei's words.

Wu Dalie accompanied Wu Zhongyuan to the post house. It was obvious that Wu Dalie was a little nervous and awkward, because Wu Zhongyuan's current identity had changed and he had become the co-owner of the three tribes, the Yellow Emperor of the human race. He needed time to get used to it.

In fact, it is not just Wu Dalee and others, Wu Zhongyuan himself also needs time to adapt to his new identity. You must know that rights and obligations are equal. Huangdi's power has reached its ultimate peak, but the responsibilities he needs to bear are also extremely heavy. Previously, he only had to The Bear Clan is responsible, and now he needs to be responsible for everyone in the world.

After going to the post house to see the injured warriors of the two races, Wu Zhongyuan returned to Zhongtian Hall, and the old blind man and the three were still kneeling in the same place.

Wu Zhongyuan did not speak to the three people, but called the civil servants to come in and dictate the imperial edict.

These are relatively specific decrees. The first one is that all Central Plains city lords will send their children or relatives to bear unified protection on the last day of the first lunar month. If they have children, they will send their children, if they have no children, they will send their daughters. If they have no children or no daughters, they will send them to their parents.

Once the five seals are lifted, there will be no safe place in the world. Only the ten-mile radius protected by Bagua Qianyang is a paradise. If the city lords think positively, this will relieve them of worries and preserve their blood. If they think negatively, it's up to them to interpret this as a pledge.

In the second way, Prince Jiang and Prince Li sent all the martial arts skills of the two clans to Youxiong before the end of the first month, and took away the black iron weapons he had rewarded. Each of the city lords of all the Yuancheng and Yicheng under their jurisdiction had one pieces.

Third, at the end of the first lunar month, all the warrior candidates from Yuan City come to Youxiong to take the five elements and blood tests.

According to convention, this test of the five elements and blood should be done on the third day of March every year. The reason why it was moved up this year was because on the third day of March he had to go to the coast of the East China Sea to look for ambergris that could be immune to the possession of the gods.

In the fourth route, Prince Jiang built the Western Army camp near Xiguan. Prince Li built the Eastern Army camp near Dongguan. Jiang Dahua, the lord of Gushan City, Wu Qin, the lord of Daze City, Wu Tong, the lord of Daqiu City, and Wu Xiong, the lord of Datong City, all repaired to the Southern Army Camp in Nanguan. With Wu Baiye, the lord of Dakuang City, Wu Yang, the lord of Dazhou City, Li Yunshan, the lord of Jiukong City, Jiang Gui, the lord of Shanshan City, fellow practitioners at the Northern Army Camp,

In the past, he could only control the Bear Clan and had no skills at all. Now that the Central Plains has been unified, he can change his style of play, changing from dispersed and passive defense to centralized and active sniping. He can directly station troops near the four passes to snipe. In addition to ordinary soldiers, warriors and warriors from various departments will also be stationed. When the wizard goes forward, the gods, ghosts and demons come out to kill one by one. Even if they cannot be stopped in the end, they can still maximize their combat effectiveness and destroy the enemy's main force first.

The fifth way is to arbitrarily discuss the government and punish those who rebel. As the saying goes, the rule of law is used to govern troubled times. Although Jiang Zheng and Li Tai sincerely surrendered, it was difficult for the people of the three ethnic groups to adapt to such huge changes in a short period of time. In politics. When power is not yet stable, it can only control public opinion and impose constraints.

In the sixth path, a copper top, silver crown, and gold crown were added. This is a supplement to the ninth-level warrior system. Before this, the warriors of the three tribes were divided into status and levels based on their spiritual energy cultivation. This is actually unfair. Although some people have advanced cultivation, they are still in the dead body. But this kind of The system has been around for a long time, and it cannot be completely abolished for a while. It can only be supplemented. Those who have made military achievements will be rewarded with a copper cap and a thorny python cloak. Those who have made great achievements are rewarded with silver crowns and cloaks that thorn dragons. For great achievements, he will be rewarded with a golden crown and a cloak embroidered with a green dragon.

Since there is no increase in salary, this approach has no practical significance, but the effect is huge, because everyone has vanity. This is a kind of recognition and a privilege that can distinguish one from others, with outstanding military achievements and bravery.

These Six Paths are formal imperial edicts, and what follows is the personnel composition and specific responsibilities of the Prime Minister's Office and the six ministries. For those who study archeology, the official positions of the past dynasties are naturally clear, and there is no need to pause and think when dictating.

The Prime Minister's Office is the core of power. The six ministries are under the jurisdiction of the Prime Minister's Office. Its main function is to connect the previous and the following. The six-ministerial system has been implemented as early as the Qin and Han Dynasties and has been used until modern times.

Then came the production and taxation system, which abolished the "production team" model and directly "contracted production to each household", with 50% of each household's income taxed. In modern times, if 50% of taxes were paid, the common people would immediately rebel. But in ancient times, 50% was a very small proportion. If you want to develop productivity, you must ensure household production. It is definitely not possible to eat from a big pot, and the people are not motivated.

Wu Zhongyuan didn't sleep all night, and the civil servants and officials also remembered it all night. At dawn, the warriors and wizards came to attend the morning meeting. When they saw the three people kneeling before His Highness, they were all frightened and nervous.

If you want to be a good leader, the most important thing is to be fair and just, with clear rewards and punishments. Wu Zhongyuan also deliberately let everyone know that the three of them knelt here all night. The three of them plotted against the Bird Tribe and the Ox Tribe, and were arbitrary and expert. They must be punished. Otherwise it will be difficult to convince the public.

"Get up." Wu Zhongyuan said casually.

Wu Junyue and Wu Di thanked him and stood up. The old blind man was old and had to hold on to prevent him from fainting. His legs had long since lost control. It was Wu Junyue and Wu Di who helped him up.

"If someone tries to deceive the emperor again, he will be killed without mercy." Wu Zhongyuan said in a deep voice.

The three of them bowed their heads in response.

Wu Zhongyuan tilted his head and looked at the officials, "Passing the decree, the four principals of the Zuofu Palace and the Right Bi Palace have joined the Prime Minister's Office, and Wu Muqiu is appointed as the Prime Minister, in charge of state affairs..."
