The war against the Northern Xiongnu was originally designed as a large-scale national war!

Not only did Jiang Ming deploy hundreds of thousands of troops on the borders of Zhongshan, Yan, Zhao, and Yan, but he also personally led over 100,000 troops to Daxianbei Mountain to relieve the siege.

The original plan was to fight the Northern Xiongnu by fighting and chasing them, resulting in a protracted and stalemate between the two sides!

Unexpectedly, this battle decided the fate of the world!

This directly terrified the Northern Xiongnu, causing them to migrate westward as a whole!

Jiang Ming then led his elite troops back to Dukang County in a grand procession.

King Ji Bochang of Yan, Minister of Justice Zizhi, Jiang Ming's concubine, and Princess Ji Shishi of Yan had already heard the news and were waiting in Dukang County.

Although Jiang Ming is currently the King of Chu and Ji Bochang is the King of Yan, they are equals.

However, because Jiang Ming also held the official position of Fangbo, Ji Bo often referred to himself as a subordinate respectfully when he saw Jiang Ming.

As for the Minister of Justice Zizhi, needless to say, he immediately knelt down and proclaimed, "May the King of Chu live ten thousand years!"

In fact, Jiang Ming also held another position, namely the Prime Minister of the Yan State.

However, now that he has risen to this level, holding the position of Prime Minister of Yan would be a demeanor to him...

Therefore, Jiang Ming directly appointed Zizhi as prime minister, giving him overall control of the Yan state's political affairs.

As for Ji Shishi, Chen Damei, Chen Ermei, Murong Xue, Dugu Yan, and Changsun Yuenu, Jiang Ming plans to formally bestow titles upon them after the capital of Dagan is moved to Yanjing.

The most urgent task at hand is to explain the matter of moving the capital to Ji Bochang and Zizhi, and to tell them to make preparations as soon as possible.

According to Jiang Ming's plan.

Previously, this emperor of the Great Gan Dynasty also had a fiefdom as large as that of a medium-sized vassal, consisting of 36 cities.

They could be self-sufficient by growing grain and collecting taxes.

As long as one doesn't live a life of extravagance like Ji Buyi, life is actually quite comfortable.

However, Jiang Ming plans to reform the system so that the emperor's private land use will be limited to Jicheng.

All other provisions were collectively provided by the various feudal lords throughout the land, so he no longer needed to manage a single piece of land on his own.

To put it bluntly, the newly enthroned Emperor Ji Chou is essentially a puppet who can only control the eunuchs and palace maids in the "Imperial City," while Jiang Ming is the "true emperor" who holds the reins of the entire world.

His state of Yan was equivalent to 'Zhili' (directly administered by the central government).

Ji Bochang was still the original King of Yan, but he was also a 'mascot'.

In any case, the position of Prince of Yan will be inherited by Jiang Ming's son in the future.

Jiang Ming did not covet the so-called "throne"; what he wanted was real power and a sufficient number of troops under his command.

Therefore, he also planned to change his so-called "Fangbo" position to "Grand General".

In this way, all the feudal lords in the world would simply be local administrative officials.

Then, by using the "Decree of Grace," they were gradually dismantled, and finally the "hereditary" system was changed, allowing the appointment of officials to become more fluid.

Such a soft landing is much better than smashing them one by one!

As the ancients said, "When one person attains enlightenment, even his chickens and dogs ascend to heaven!"

Jiang Ming became the governor and king of Chu, and his relatives in Chenjia Village naturally benefited from this.

Chen Dabao was the most proud of them all.

This guy's leg injury had long since healed, and... he even forced Jin Feng to give birth to a son for him.

For more than a year, Jin Feng was imprisoned in a cellar, living in darkness and suffering endless humiliation and torment. She was also forced to become pregnant and give birth, driving her to the brink of madness, much like a female ghost.

Previously, Chen Dabao kidnapped Jin Feng and thought it was a blessing he had accumulated over three lifetimes!

After all, given his circumstances, Miss Dong would rather be a prostitute in a brothel than marry him.

Jin Feng is the wife of the prefect, and she looks like a fairy in a painting. To be able to get Jin Feng... Chen Dabao felt that it would be worth it to live 20 years less.

However, as his brother-in-law became the prime minister of the Yan state, and later the king of Chu, and then the governor of the Daqian empire.

Chen Dabao's status soared like a wild dog ascending to heaven, making him the most important person in Dukang County, and he no longer looked down on Jin Feng.

Jiang Ming doted on Chen Damei and always regarded her as his legal wife.

Those below naturally understood.

Therefore, although Chen Dabao held no official position, as the "brother of the King of Chu," he had become an absolute and powerful figure in Dukang County, someone no one dared to offend.

Not only did he acquire tens of thousands of acres of fertile land for himself, but he also built an extremely luxurious mansion. He lived a life of ease and luxury, with servants at his beck and call, and he and his wife, Old Master Chen, were incredibly happy.

The Chen family had long since moved from Chenjia Village to Dukang County, but they left an old house in Chenjia Village, which was managed by a few servants.

Jin Feng is still locked up in the old house...

Because she was already mentally unstable, after Chen Dabao took her son away, she would mutter to herself in the cellar every day, and her condition was extremely pitiful!

At this moment, Chen Dabao no longer looked down on Jin Feng, that crazy woman.

Upon arriving in Dukang County, he immediately married his principal wife, Lady Cui, and also took several concubines.

Although the older brother knows how to enjoy life, Chen Damei is not the kind of person who is vain.

Although she had become the Queen of Chu, she always believed that her husband's abilities belonged to him, and she was still the same ordinary woman she had always been. She had been favored by her husband and given the status of his principal wife, so she had to be even more cautious and keep to her duty, and not do anything that would make her a "petty person who has gained power."
