Everyone looked at Lin Han with more respect.
They knew that Lin Han had broken through to the god level and fought against the heavenly calamity, as if he were a god descending to earth.
They all gained more or less, some were breakthroughs, some were insights and improvements in strength.
All this is due to the king’s efforts.
"The triumphant return of this expedition to the four small nations is a blessing for Great Xia. Now that Great Xia's territory is vast and no longer what it once was, it requires a complete system of laws and officials to govern it."
Everyone in the imperial study nodded.
Now that we have established a country, this is a necessary thing.
The country has its own laws, and we cannot just rely on the previous brutal killings to act.
"I have already drawn up a rough system of official posts. I summoned you here to gather your wisdom and offer your opinions."
Upon hearing this, everyone listened attentively.
Jia Xu and Ma Yuanyi, in particular, took this very seriously.
"My idea is called the Three Departments and Six Ministries. The imperial system will be divided into three departments and six ministries: the Secretariat, the Ministry of Palace Affairs, and the Ministry of State Affairs. The Secretariat will be responsible for drafting imperial edicts and documents, the Ministry of Palace Affairs will be responsible for reviewing imperial edicts and signing memorials; the Ministry of State Affairs will be responsible for the six ministries of war, punishment, engineering, rites, household, and personnel, and will execute imperial edicts..."
Lin Han told everyone the simplest outline.
Jia Xu and Ma Yuanyi's expressions lit up. It sounded good, different from the Three Dukes and Nine Ministers of the Han Dynasty.
The more he listened, the more surprised Jia Xu became.
The arrangement of official posts described by the lord is very complete, with clear duties. After perfection, the functional efficiency will definitely not be inferior to the Three Dukes and Nine Ministers of the Han Dynasty.
"We are currently short of talent in Daxia. Some positions are vacant. We will gradually fill them after selecting talented people in the future."
"Yuan Yi will temporarily serve as the Minister of the Central Secretariat and concurrently as the Minister of the Chancellery. We'll decide when a suitable candidate is found. Mr. Jia will temporarily serve as the Minister of the Imperial Court. Zhang Sheng, Xu Huang, Zhang He, Bo Cai, Yu Du, and Zhang Rao will all serve in the lower courts as counselors, discussing state affairs. Xu Huang will also serve as the Minister of War, Zhang He and Zhang Rao as Assistant Ministers of War, and Yu Du as the Minister of Justice..."
Lin Han assigned them positions one by one.
The current arrangement is just to fill the gaps, and there will be adjustments later. The current leadership team has more military generals than civil officials.
The leaders of the Yellow Turban Army were all warriors, so it was a bit far-fetched to ask them to govern the country. If they were left alone, there would be chaos. Fortunately, there was Ma Yuanyi, otherwise Lin Han would be exhausted to death.
As for Jia Xu, he is Lin Han's aide and sometimes has to return to Hanjiang City. His identity should not be exposed. He can be assigned to a temporary position and not hold an important position for the time being. His name cannot be revealed and the decision can only be made later.
This is all we can do for now.
After completing the arrangements, Lin Han spoke earnestly.
"Everyone, Daxia has just grown stronger, and you have also just entered the officialdom. If your positions are not suitable, I will adjust them in time. We started the rebellion together, fought side by side, and went through life and death together. As long as you do not let me down, I will not let you down."
"Now that we have established a nation, we all come from common people. We must remain steadfast in our aspirations and work for the people. We followed our master in the uprising because we wanted to establish a peaceful nation. We must not lose our resolve just because we are in a high position."
"Your Majesty is wise." Ma Yuanyi stood up and clasped his fists.
"Your Majesty is wise."
Everyone on the field stood up and bowed with sincere respect.
After the court meeting, Lin Han left Ma Yuanyi behind.
Among the Yellow Turban soldiers, Ma Yuanyi was the most capable. He was also Zhang Jiao's disciple and was respected by everyone. It was most appropriate for him to serve as the Minister of the Central Secretariat and the Minister of the Chancellery.
"Brother Yuanyi, as the saying goes, conquering the world is easy, but defending it is difficult. Now that my Taiping Dao aspirations have just begun, whether or not we can defend Daxia is the most important thing. In the future, when you serve as the Minister of the Central Secretariat and the Minister of the Chancellery, you will have to work hard. Master's way to save the world lies in you and me."
"Your Majesty."
"Brother Yuanyi, when no one is around, you and I can call each other brothers."
"Okay, Junior Brother Lin Han, I will do my best to establish a peaceful world for Daxia." Ma Yuanyi said very solemnly.
"I have Hanjiang City, and I travel back and forth between the two places from time to time. I'd appreciate your help in presiding over the government affairs. You can occasionally give lessons to Bo Cai, Zhang Rao, and the others, teaching them about politics and governance to help them grow."
"yes."
