The answer is no, the facts are already there.

For this one word, Li Li easily spared his life and did not pursue the whereabouts of his two younger brothers. He also personally promised to allow the Sima family to return to their hometown in Hanoi and rebuild their ancestral house.

From then on, Sima Yi knew that the weight of this word in Li Li's mind was far more important than Sima Yi's bowing down to serve.But he couldn't figure out why, the effect of a single word was so great.What puzzled him even more was that Li Li was so smart and his status was so noble, why did he ask him about his country name?

This problem has troubled Sima Yi for a year, but he still can't figure out why.

Until now when he saw this big banner on the top of the altar standing behind Li Li, Sima Yi suddenly felt an indescribable loss in his heart, feeling that he had lost something that was a hundred times more important than his own life.But no matter how much he racked his brains and thought hard, he still couldn't grasp the clue and couldn't figure out why he was so lost.Why do you feel lost, and where does this inexplicable feeling come from.Why do I have such a strange feeling?

Staring at the Jin State banner fluttering up and down in the wind, Sima Yi lost his mind.With a dull face, only the big flag and the stalwart figure standing proudly in front of the big flag are in his eyes.At this moment, this figure has become the third emperor to ascend the throne and become the emperor in the territory of the Great Han Dynasty. He is the most powerful and powerful existence in the world. He is the Western Jin Emperor Li Li and Li Wenchang.

At a certain moment, Sima Yi grasped something vaguely, feeling that all the doubts in his heart were caused by the word "Jin". Perhaps it had a special relationship with himself, or it had some kind of connection with the entire Sima family.If this inference holds true.Then the relationship between the two must be very important, and it is very likely that it is directly related to the rise and fall of the entire family.

However, this was just Sima Yi's conjecture, a momentary thought, completely groundless, so that he himself did not believe his conjecture, thinking that it was too absurd, and it was simply nonsense.So he gave up the idea of ​​continuing to think about it, and the sluggish expression on his face quickly returned to normal, but the inexplicable loss was still lingering in his heart, lingering and lingering.But now he can't take care of distracted thinking.Because the enthronement ceremony is over, the soldiers, horses and crowd around the altar have begun to leave the altar neatly and orderly.

Putting away his thoughts, Sima Yi quickly left the altar following the Jinyiwei imperial army to assist the generals of the battalions to bring order.Make sure that the five cavalry battalions that are about to participate in the military parade leave first and return to the city in advance to prepare; the rest of the soldiers and horses return to the city with more than [-] people in a mighty manner, heading for the Li Family Ancestral Temple in Beicheng.

An hour later.Jin Emperor Li Li led his people to sacrifice to the royal ancestral temple. After Li's family and nobles, it was the turn of civil and military officials to burn incense and sacrifice.After the whole sacrifice is over.It was already afternoon, and most of the day passed quietly.

afternoon.The most important part of the enthronement ceremony has finally arrived: the official enthronement and proclaiming the emperor.

The enthronement ceremonies of the past dynasties are usually not so cumbersome, and this ceremony is completely different from the general enthronement.Generally speaking, when the old emperor dies, as soon as he dies, the prince will immediately succeed to the throne, and all civil and military officials will pay homage to the new emperor, which is considered to be the enthronement. There is no such cumbersome enthronement ceremony at all.The reason why Li Li's ascension to the throne this time has many ceremonies is because he is the founding emperor of a new dynasty, and every ceremonies cannot be omitted, they must go through one by one, and none of them can be left out.

In addition, offering sacrifices to heaven, earth, five emperors and ancestral temples does not mean enthronement and proclaiming emperor.Only after the sacrifice is completed, can the enthronement ceremony be officially held, proclaiming the emperor and founding the country.According to the ritual system, the sacrificial ceremony was completed on the first day, the enthronement and proclaiming emperor could be done on the second day, and the ancestral temple was sacrificed on the third day.However, in the future when Li Li's son ascends the throne, he can proceed according to the etiquette system, and even simplify the enthronement ceremony, directly enthroning first and then offering sacrifices.

In front of the main hall of the newly built imperial palace, that is, the Changle Hall, Li Li ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, and named his country "Jin".Because Xiliang is located in the northwest, it is also called the Western Jin Dynasty.

At the beginning of the Jin Dynasty, the new emperor came to the throne. According to the rules, he first rewarded the officials, rewarded the meritorious officials, and gave amnesty to the world.

The main hall of Changle Palace, the main hall of the palace that had been closed for seven years, was finally able to see the light of day again, the palace gates were wide open, and it was put into use again.The difference from seven years ago is that the little emperor who used to be high above the throne has long since passed away, and the person who originally stood on the right side of the throne took his place. .

In contrast, the civil and military teams that once stood under the hall have changed, and all have changed hands.Most of the civil and military officials who fled Chang'an with the Han Emperor in the past have passed away, or they have lived in seclusion; while the officials who stayed in Chang'an except those recruited and retained by Li Li, the rest of the officials have long since disappeared.

Nowadays, all the civil servants and military generals under Li Li's command who strode into the main hall with their heads held high, were at least civil and military officials with a miscellaneous number of generals and above who were eligible to enter the court to see the new emperor.

After three prostrations and nine obeisances, the civil and military groups return to their respective positions.Different from the old system in the Han Dynasty where the right was respected and civil officials were the main ones, the Jin State respected the left, with military commanders on the left and civil officials on the right.This change, seemingly insignificant at first glance, is actually significant.This move clearly shows that the state of Jin was established by military force, and the status and rank of military generals were obviously higher than that of civil officials. Although civil officials were not reduced to vassals of military generals, they did not return to the situation in which civil officials ruled the court in the Han Dynasty.

In addition, this change also indicates that after the founding of Xiliang, the pace of conquest will not stop, and military generals will dominate for a long time; a dominant Confucianism will face severe challenges, although it will not fall from the altar, it will not The pattern of Confucianism and respect appears again.

"Adhering to His Majesty's will, now the Northern Wei Dynasty and the Southern Han Dynasty rule the world, and the Jin Kingdom has two thirds of the world. However, the three major vassal states have become a triumvirate, and they have been changed to the Yuan Dynasty one after another. Your Majesty wishes that at the time when one-third of the world is at present, the Jin Kingdom will continue to use the Jian'an reign name, and will redesignate the reign title after it has unified the world. Thank you!" Li Ru Li Wenyou.

"Your Majesty is wise, and I will follow His Majesty's will!" All the civil and military personnel in the hall responded in unison.

Li Li nodded slightly, and said solemnly: "This is an expedient measure, and it is also a last resort. The Northern Wei Dynasty implemented the new year name, which is now the second year of Huangchu, but the Jian'an year name is still used externally, and the Southern Han Dynasty also uses the Jian'an year name. In fact, these two vassal states have not changed their year names, in order to make it easier for the people to understand the situation in the world, and to convey timely and accurate information about the military situation, our Jin State is consistent with the other two vassal states, and will continue to use the old system until the world is pacified."

After a brief explanation, Li Lisui stopped talking and waved his hand to signal Li Ru to proclaim the decree and reward the officials.Li Ru understood immediately, bowed to receive the imperial decree from Xiao Huangmen, and read aloud: "At the beginning of the founding of a country, order is paramount. The royal family is upright; Li Xian, the general who conquered the south, was granted the title of King of Shu and the governor of Yizhou; Li Zhi (the son of Li Jue) was granted the title of Marquis of Meiyang." These three are all royal relatives, so they should be the first to receive the award.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, long live my emperor!" Li Jue, Li Xian and Li Zhi came out of the line and bowed in unison.There are no fathers and sons in Changle Palace. Although Li Jue is Li Li's uncle and the adoptive father of Li Li and Li Xian brothers, there are differences between monarchs and ministers, and etiquette cannot be ignored.This was the first time in Li Li's life that he knelt down to Li Li. With Li Li's lenient nature, this was also the only time he accepted Li Li's kneeling ceremony, and there would be no more.

After Li Li waved his hand to signal Li Jue and Li Jue to be exonerated, Li Ru continued to read the imperial decree: "Your Majesty's decree, Cai Yong, the dean of the Academy of Taiyuan, is appointed Taiwei, Cao Cao, the general who conquers the North, is Sikong, and Liu Biao, the general who Zhennan is a Situ, ranks among the three princes. !" Obviously, these three people's ranks among the three princes are empty positions, not to mention that Cao Cao and Liu Biao have already ascended the throne and proclaim themselves emperors, and Cai Yong's promotion to the post of Taiwei is just a show in name only.It is worth mentioning that Cai Yong was killed by Situ Wang Yun after Dong Zhuo was assassinated in history; There is no problem in living for ten or eight years.

"I ordered Li Xuan to be Minister of the Ministry of Officials, in charge of state affairs, and Minister of Military Aircraft; imperially appointed Jia Xu as Minister of the Ministry of War, led chariots and cavalry generals, and Minister of Military Aircraft; imperially appointed Li Ru,,,," after reading this, Li Ru couldn't help but pause subconsciously. He turned back to look at Li Li, but saw Li Li smiling and nodding at him, but the smile was a bit playful.

Li Ru shook his head slightly helplessly, and continued to read: "Li Ru was conferred the title of Zhongchang Attendant, in charge of foreign government affairs; Guo Jia was conferred the title of General Guard, Minister of Military Affairs; ; Chen Gong was appointed Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, leading Chang'an Yin, Minister of Military Aircraft; General Zhou Yu of Anbei was appointed General Left, Governor of Yuzhou, Minister of Military Aircraft Department; Zhuge Liang was General Right, Chief Governor of Sili, Minister of Military Aircraft; The general, leader and state governor, and military aircraft minister" system of three provinces and six departments first appeared, but the three provinces were simplified and changed to the military aircraft department, with a total of eight military aircraft ministers.Right now, this is just a prototype. In the future, as the world situation changes, the system of three provinces and six ministries will be gradually improved.

Three Provinces and Six Ministries is a system that has been developed for a long time since the Western Han Dynasty.

The three provinces refer to Zhongshu Province, Menxia Province, and Shangshu Province, and the six departments refer to the Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of Households, the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Punishment, and the Ministry of Industry under Shangshu Province.Each department governs four divisions, for a total of 24 divisions.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty seized the power of the outer court and established the inner court headed by a general to deal with military affairs.It is the beginning of the later generations of Shangshu Province to convey the seal and communicate with the internal and external dynasties with the Shangshu and Zhongshu Yeren who originally belonged to the Shaofu.

In the Han Dynasty, Shangshutai was set up to command the political affairs of hundreds of officials, and the chief was called Shangshuling.However, at this time, Shangshutai still belonged to the Shaofu sequence in terms of system, and its official rank was low, so another general, great Sima, and Taifu were appointed to take over the government in the name of recording Shangshu affairs.

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the Shizhong Temple was set up as the emperor's attendant and advisory body.Officials such as Shizhong and Sanqi Changshi are mostly educated scholars, who are selected for a while.

However, although there was a Shangshutai in the Eastern Han Dynasty, which had become the main agency for handling government affairs, it was an official office under the inner court after all, and it cannot be said to be the official government agency of the country.

After the establishment of the Sui Dynasty, the official and noble system established in the Northern Zhou Dynasty was abolished, and a central bureaucratic system with three provinces and six ministries as the main body was formally established.The governors of the three provinces are all prime ministers. At the same time, the three princes and the three divisions also participate in the government and are also prime ministers.

The characteristic of the three provinces system in the Tang Dynasty was that it changed to two provinces and one province shortly after its establishment.The motivation for this change lies in the imperial power's control over the relative power and the improvement of administrative efficiency.

The origin and development of the system of three provinces and six ministries are all in Li Li's mind.From the moment he took charge of the Xiliang Army, he was planning to reform the political system.He is well aware of the pros and cons of the system of three provinces and six ministries.After the power was devolved to the three provinces, the power was relatively dispersed.It will not form a monopoly situation, which is convenient for the emperor to control, and is conducive to centralized rule; however, the three provinces check and restrict each other. Although the power is dispersed, it is easy to breed each other. , Shirk responsibility to each other, resulting in low administrative efficiency.

Plus.Since Li Li came from later generations, he has a high degree of recognition of the military-government separation system, so he has been deliberately creating a system atmosphere in which military and government affairs are separated. tracks, running side by side without interfering with each other, and maintaining a relatively independent operating situation.

In view of this, Li Li has been looking for a point of convergence between the three provinces and six ministries system and the military-administrative dual-track system, hoping to blend these two political systems together.Forming a brand-new political system is not only conducive to imperial rule, but also can maximize administrative efficiency.This idea has been brewing in his mind for more than ten years, and he has put it into action.Boldly try to change the current system quietly, so that the subordinates can subtly accept the new system.Operate within his pre-determined system of governance, ultimately transforming the entire bureaucracy.

The founding of Xiliang is an important opportunity.It is the best time to officially implement the system of three provinces and six ministries, and it is also a test field for realizing the separation of military and government that Li Li has planned for a long time.

The system that Li Li had planned for a long time was still based on the system of three provinces and six ministries.In order to realize the separation of the military and the government, the three provinces were changed to the Shangshu Province and the Military Aircraft Department. The Shangshu Province was in charge of government affairs and local governance, and the Military Aircraft Department was in charge of the army and conquest.Among the six ministries, the Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of Soldiers and the Ministry of Households are the most important. Because it is currently in a war period, it is not suitable for all to be restructured. Therefore, the six ministries will remain unchanged for the time being, and they will still be under the jurisdiction of Shangshu Province. They will be improved in the future.

Limited by the current situation, the three kingdoms stand together, the situation is tense, and a war is imminent.Therefore, the new system planned by Li Li cannot be completed in one step. It must be gradually promoted and completed step by step as the situation develops and changes without affecting the current situation.What is currently being implemented is only the prototype of the new system, with the Military Aircraft Department as the main body and the Six Departments as the supplementary one. There is no clear separation between the military and the government.

Li Xuan was granted the title of Minister of the Ministry of Officials, and was in charge of state affairs. In fact, he was the chief official of the Ministry of Shangshu, that is, the prime minister.And the Minister of Military Aircraft, including Li Xuan, Jia Xu, Guo Jia, Zhou Yu, and Zhuge Liang, is the core member of the Military Aircraft Department; the Military Aircraft Department is the center of power in wartime, and it is in charge of military and state affairs together with Li Li.This is the need for the development of the war situation. Military warfare in troubled times must be centered on military warfare. Therefore, the military aircraft department is particularly important. The army is the foundation for maintaining the prosperity and decline of Jin.

In the Great Hall of Changle, Li Ru stood on the upper steps, still reading out the reward edict.

"Hua Xin, the governor of Youzhou, was granted the Minister of Rites, Cui Yan, the governor of Youzhou, was the Minister of the Ministry of Households, Xun Chen was the Minister of the Ministry of Industry; Teng Xiao was appointed the General of the North, Xu Rong was the General of the East, Zhang Liao was the General of the South, Bo Cai Huan Fei is the general of Zhendong, Dian Wei is the general of Zhenxi, Zhao Yun is the general of Zhennan, Ma Chao is the general of Zhenbei, Huang Zhong is the general of Annan, Xu Chu is the general of Anbei, Gao Shun is the general of Andong, Teng Yu is General Anxi"

The lengthy edict of rewards was read out for half an hour, involving more than [-] civil servants and military generals under Li Li's command with a rank of more than a thousand stones. These are all officials left in the edict. Promoted and promoted, the remaining part even if not promoted, also received financial rewards.

As Li Li ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, all civil and military officials under his command rose accordingly.Among them, the promotion of civil servants is relatively stable, and the phenomenon of seniority is relatively obvious.In contrast, the rewards received by the military generals this time can be regarded as leap-forward promotions, especially the leaders of the battalions or the battle-tested warriors. The rewards are unprecedentedly generous. There are hundreds of generals, and most of them are the middle and low-level generals who first followed Li Li to fight.Perhaps this is the fundamental reason why they tried their best to support Li Li's ascension to the throne, which perfectly interprets the true meaning of one person's attainment of Taoism and ascension to heaven.

It is worth mentioning that a large number of rising stars emerged in this award, such as Guo Huai, Hao Zhao, Sun Li, Zhang Yi, Wang Ping and more than [-] young generals.Compared with the veteran generals and veterans in the army, they did not have outstanding records, nor did they lead a battalion alone, but they can stand out from thousands of generals, which shows that they are extraordinary.Has become the backbone of Jin's million-strong army, and may not be able to replace the veterans in time.Come from behind and stand alone.

While awarding civil and military officials.More than ten wives and concubines under Li Li's name also received the rewards they deserved.Li Xin, the main wife, became queen and continued to be in charge of the inner palace. Five wives, including Cai Yan, Dong Wan, Ren Hongchang, Chen Yu, and Dian Wuxia, became noble concubines, and the remaining ten or so concubines also became concubines.In this way, a strange phenomenon has formed: except for one queen in the entire inner palace, the other sisters are all concubines with almost the same status.Moreover, the queen and concubines still live together and are still called sisters.There is no separate palace, and there is no favoritism between one and another; expenditures are equally distributed as before, and are uniformly allocated by Li Xin, and Zhang Ai, the Zhen family, is in charge of all properties under the name of the Inner Palace and supplies the daily expenses of the Inner Palace.

This is because they all have children, and according to the convention, they should all have corresponding identities. In addition, they have lived together for a long time and have a deep relationship. They are not sisters but they are better than sisters.And Li Li has always treated them equally.There is no difference in treatment, let them know invisibly that their men hate the battles in the inner palace, which makes them put away their thoughts that they shouldn't have.There must be peace with the sisters.

More importantly, Li Li told them before he ascended the throne that his sons all studied and grew up together.After they grow up, they must enter the army or be transferred to counties and counties for training, and they must rely on their own efforts to gain fame.If you want to get the prince or inherit the throne, you must accumulate enough merits and be alone as soon as possible.Then lead the army on an expedition or follow the army to fight.

On this point, Li Li's attitude is extremely firm, beyond doubt, because he has enough time to train his son and choose an heir with both ability and political integrity.Now his eldest son Li Hao is 11 years old, and the remaining sons are as old as Li Hao. The youngest among the dozen sons is also five years old, and Li Li is only 29 years old now.Therefore, he has a lot of time to train his sons, and as long as he squeezes out some free time, he can personally educate them to grow up.Even so, when they grow up, Li Li is still in the prime of life, and he can choose an heir himself, and then put him on the horse and send him off for another ride, which is not a problem at all.As long as he pays a little attention, once he finds the signs of internal fighting, he can stop it in time, so as to properly arrange and guide them well, so that brothers will not kill each other, so that internal fighting in the court can be eliminated.

It is precisely because of the large number of children that Li Li decided that even if his sons grow up, they do not need to confer titles on them.Let them not have status differences prematurely, don't artificially set up obstacles for them, increase conflicts, create a good growth environment for them, let them grow up together in peace of mind, and in harmony, and then rely on their own The ability to gain fame and fame will determine the future development direction and status.This is Li Li's obsession, and it is also a rock-solid belief.Now that these children have been raised, they must be responsible for them, and they must be educated well. Brothers must not kill each other, otherwise Li Li's life will be incomplete and he will be a loser.

After rewarding the officials, there will be a grand military parade.

This is the highlight of the enthronement ceremony.In order to ensure the safety of the military parade, Li Li dispatched the Flying Bear Camp under Huan Fei's tent, the Qinglong Camp under Xu Chu's tent, the Sinking Camp under Gao Shun's tent, the Jinfan Camp under Gan Ning's tent, and the Wuwei Camp stationed in Yuzhou as early as half a month ago. The fifth battalion of soldiers and horses entered Beijing, and together with the Huben battalion under Dianwei's tent, which defended the capital, formed six military parade teams complete with all three armies.After half a month of training, the newly equipped six troops entered the royal school grounds to show off their might to the [-] foreign missions and the two missions of the princes.The cavalry charge, the infantry rehearsal, and the water army gallop and shoot. The three armies are like arms and fingers, majestic and majestic. The appearance of each team makes the expressions of the diplomatic missions who come to watch the ceremony change, and they are deeply moved and shocked. endlessly.

In the third month after the founding of the People's Republic of China, with Jin Emperor Li Li promulgating an edict that shocked the world, it opened the prelude to the Three Kingdoms War.
