Chapter 1543: The New Emperor's Beginning, Everything Is New

The emperor died, the prince succeeded to the throne as the new emperor, and the country held a grand funeral. Because it had been arranged in advance, everything went on in an orderly manner without any trouble.

At the first court meeting, the young emperor sat on the dragon throne, and Chen Yan and Xue Ji led all the civil and military officials to pay homage.

"Get flat!"

The little emperor said in a clear and even childish voice.

But no one dares to underestimate this little man sitting on the throne.

He was of orthodox origin and was the only son of the late emperor. He was established as the crown prince from birth, and now he also has a powerful master, the City God, and now the entire City God system is his backer.

Chen Yan, the first assistant, came out and said loudly: "Your Majesty, I, Chen Yan, would like to ask your Majesty to rectify the administration of officials!"

"The success or failure of official governance is related to the rise and fall of the dynasty. Corrupt officials harm the people and the country. Bad official regulations emerge in endlessly. Officials are corrupt, there is a shortage of money and food, and the national treasury is empty. There are even cases of extortion by superiors, fishing infringements, privately imposed exorbitant taxes, and squeezing the people's power."

"So I ask Your Majesty to issue an edict to clarify the administration of officials and rectify the discipline!"

"The first is to check the official bank treasury, the second is to check the granaries in various places, the third is to check whether there are unjust, false and wrong cases in prisons, the fourth is to check whether officials are selling off their titles, the fifth is to check whether there is corruption, the sixth is to prohibit the extravagance of officials, and the seventh is to be strict Examination of political performance.”

Chen Yan made a total of eighteen points, each of which pointed directly at the issue of officials.

The little emperor sat and listened, his face always calm. When Chen Yan finished speaking, the little emperor nodded, "It's accurate!"

In fact, this was all discussed in advance, and bringing it out today is just a formality. As for the formulation and rectification of officialdom, it naturally came from the cabinet, strictly speaking, from Chen Yan and Xue Ji.

After Chen Yan retreated, his second assistant, Xue Ji, stepped forward again.

"Your Majesty, Xue Ji, please ask your Majesty to rectify the folk customs!"

"The people are the cornerstone of the country. If the people's customs are unstable, the people will be uneasy. If the people's customs are simple and the society is clean and clear, there are many chaos in the world today, such as gambling, extravagant weddings and funerals, bandits and bullies, those who act recklessly, and those who are extravagant."

"It has put an end to the gambling culture, which corrupts moral character, ruins family income, and has harmed people's hearts and customs."

"The second is to rectify the extravagant trend of weddings and funerals. Weddings in various places pay attention to money. It is called betrothal gift, but it is actually a collection of money. The most is two to three hundred gold, and the least is forty or fifty taels. This is still the case in the homes of scholar-bureaucrats. Yi, are you a commoner?"

"Third, crack down on bandits and bullies."

Xue Ji said twenty-one things in succession, which are related to all aspects of society.

When Xue Ji finished playing, the little emperor nodded, "It's accurate!"

The new dynasty has a new atmosphere. Under the leadership of Chen Yan and Xue Ji, they are ready to fight hard to save this dynasty that is already riddled with diseases and is full of crises.

Of course, it may not be that easy to reverse all this with only the power of the court. After all, it will involve the interests and interests of many people. Fortunately, the emperor still has a big backer.

Jiang Hao has ordered the City God System to cooperate with the imperial court to complete these things together. Whether it is corrupt officials, gentry bureaucrats, or bandits and bullies, if they use normal means, it may be difficult to attack them, or even conceal them, but in front of the City God System , their little tricks are nothing.

Because of this, Jiang Hao promoted Xue Ji to an official position, from the original title of Capital God of Henan Province to the position of Judge of the Capital City God.

The judge is the secretary of the City God, but there is more than one, and there are two in the official position, divided into civil and military judges. Jiang Hao named old man Zhuge as civil judge, and named Xue Ji as military judge. Both of them have their own affairs.

In this way, Xue Ji could mobilize more City God resources and cooperate with the imperial court.

Taking this opportunity, Jiang Hao also began to vigorously sort out the city god system. Each province, every prefecture, and every county gradually filled up the city god manpower. Every town and every village set up a land god, every mountain had a mountain god, and every river and every lake had a river god lake. God waits.

Leave this aspect of work to Old Man Zhuge.

Jiang Hao's main job is to confer gods. During this time, he carved countless official seals, which can be said to be canonized gods all over the world. With the carving of divine seals, the divine power of Chunjun sword has become increasingly profound and powerful, especially in terms of damage to divine souls. Far stronger than ordinary flying swords.

The little fox is here.

After the Henan banks and commercial houses were arranged, a big shopkeeper was ordered to take charge. Hu Xinyue followed him to the capital and settled in the Capital God's Temple.

In the dormitory of the Chenghuang Temple, Jiang Hao and Hu Xinyue sat opposite each other. Their souls were combined to practice dual cultivation. A wave of wonderful feelings flowed through their hearts, increasing their cultivation and nourishing Jiang Hao's soul.

Jiang Hao's soul was seriously injured. In addition to the purple energy from the east, he practiced with martial arts every day. Dual cultivation has great music. It has the effect of repairing the soul, which is much stronger than practicing martial arts. Ever since the little fox came here, Jiang Hao Practice diligently with her, and your soul will recover a little bit every day.

Huh~!

After waking up from practice, the two looked at each other and smiled.

"I can feel that Lang Jun's spirit has recovered a little. It seems that he will be fully recovered in less than half a year." Hu Xinyue said.

"I estimate that not only can it be restored, but it may also be able to reach a higher level. After the soul is so severely damaged and then repaired, it can be considered broken and then rebuilt. In the process, it has been strengthened. Maybe by the time I am completely repaired, the soul can reach the golden level. Dan completes the realm," Jiang Hao said with a smile.

The little fox looked happy, "Isn't that husband expected to ascend to immortality?"

But he turned around and became worried, "But what should I do if Langjun ascends and Xinyue is the only one left in this world?"

Jiang Hao smiled and scratched Hu Xinyue's nose, "You think too far ahead. Even if it's normal, it will take tens or hundreds of years to ascend to immortality. Besides, I've become a god, and I can't ascend in this world."

Hu Xinyue immediately changed from worry to joy, "How long can Xinyue stay with you, my dear?"

"Yes, a long, long time."

Originally, a large number of Shangshu Langzhong died in the court, and a large number of new members were replaced. Now the court is run by Chen Yan and Xue Ji, and the whole court feels much simpler.

All places began to rectify the administration of officials, evaluate officials, and rectify local customs. For a time, many places in the whole country changed.

Some people saw all this and said in their hearts: "At the beginning of the new emperor, everything is new, and everything is developing in a good direction."

The person who said this was Ning Caichen.

After returning to his hometown, he settled down in the county town and lived alone. He read books and studied every day. He was originally a scholar. The new emperor ascended the throne and opened the Enke this year. Ning Caichen also prepared to participate in this year's provincial examination.

After locking the gate, Ning Caichen picked up the bookcase and put it on his back, and came to the dock. Someone on the passenger ship reached out from the window and waved to Ning Caichen, "Brother Caichen, this way, hurry up and get on the boat, the boat will leave soon."

"I'm coming." Ning Caichen ran two steps to get on the boat.

The boatman waited for him to get on the boat, collected the planks, untied the ropes and set off. Several people sat together and talked about the situation of this imperial examination. Ning Caichen looked at the scenery outside the window and felt very comfortable.
