Chastity Layman

After the typhoon, the weather was finally not so muggy.

San Francisco palace, the former court envoys came to announce the conferment of Grand Master Qin Lang as the king of Qi, and awarded the hereditary seal of succession, and the supervisor and officials of the Ministry of Industry came to build the Qi palace.

The original San Francisco was an outer city and Luzon County Prince’s Mansion in the shape of Lv. Prime Minister Yan Liben personally designed Qi Wangfu. Based on the original layout of Lv, Qi Wangfu was built on the east side, which is higher in standard and shape than Luzon County Prince’s Mansion.

The palace gate verandah and the city gate tower are covered with blue glazed tiles, just like the system of the Eastern Palace.

The screen in the hall is decorated with cloud dragons, the top curtain is made of green wenqi, and the clay gold cloud dragon is just like the system of the East Palace.

The new King Qi Mansion has a very high standard and a large city. In fact, it is equivalent to building a large new city to the east of the original San Francisco city.

There is Xiaoqiang outside Qi Wang's mansion, three points in Zhou Jiuli, and Friday in the inner city. The outer city walls are rammed earth walls and the inner city walls are brick walls.

The inner city is called Wangcheng and Wanggong, and the outer city is called Zhouyuan.

The royal city is two feet nine feet five inches high, six feet wide at the bottom, the female wall is five feet five inches high, and the moat is five feet wide and three feet deep.

The palace city of King Qi's Mansion is 152 Zhang 2 cun from east to west, 197 Zhang 2 cun from north to south, and five miles around.

There are five gates in the city gate, and the south gate is the three city gates.

The Qi Palace, which was ordered by the emperor and built by the Ministry of Industry and Jiang Zuojian, was built in strict accordance with the specifications set by the imperial court. The Qin family paid for the money and people. The construction speed was very fast, and it was completed in only ten months.

The newly built Wangcheng is really magnificent, especially in many specifications, it is built more than the East Palace. It is undoubtedly much more majestic than the San Francisco City and Duduya City established at the beginning of the drafting.

The entire Qinwangfu City is double-layered inside and outside, narrow from east to west, long from north to south, and slightly protruding from the south to a T-shape, which is completely opposite to the original San Francisco Lu character on the west. The city of San Francisco is similar to an inverted T, while the new Wangcheng is T-shaped.

In terms of Feng Shui, the T shape is also called Sanhe, which is an ideal shape.

The Xiao Qiang, nearly three feet high, is not considered high, but the enemy towers and horse faces all over it are very intimidating. What's more, the Zunyi Gate, the south gate of Xiao Qiang, also adopts the design of an arrow tower. The five-story arrow tower is densely covered with countless arrow windows.

The Chengyun Hall, the front hall of the palace, is right in the middle of Miyagi.

The name of the city gate and the name of the palace are all drawn up by the imperial court. The whole palace of the Qi Palace has 270 gates and buildings. .

The two verandahs of the Chengyun Hall are the left and right halls. From Cunxin, the second hall of Chengyun, the two verandas around the back to the Chengyun Gate, there are 138 rooms. Behind the hall are the front, middle and rear palaces, each with nine rooms, and two palace rooms, etc. There are ninety-nine rooms in total.

There are one hundred and thirty-eight rooms such as halls and warehouses in Zhouyuan, and there are eight hundred and eleven rooms in the palace.

As the main hall of the entire Miyagi, the Chengyun Hall is north of the Chengyun Gate, facing south, nine rooms, nine feet nine feet nine inches high.

The Chengyun Hall is also Qin Lang's sleeping hall, the east and west halls are divided into two verandahs, the west hall is the sleeping hall of the princess Taiping, and the east hall is the residence of the prince.

However, because the son has been crowned, he has already left the palace to live in Zhouyuan.

The north area of ​​Zhouyuanli in the royal palace is where the sons and daughters of Qin Lang went out of the palace to live after they were twelve years old, and the south area was the internal office of the cabinet, Xuanhui Yuan and other yamen, so it was convenient to attend to the king of Qi for questions at any time.

There is also the Wangfu Library and Wangfu School in Zhouyuanli.

In addition, there is Zuozongmiao Yousheji.

The entire Prince Qi Mansion is very large, with two layers of city walls inside and outside, and it is quite prosperous. Although it is far inferior to the Taiji and Daming Palaces in Chang'an, and the Luoyang and Shangyang Palaces in Luoyang, after all, it was designed by everyone Yan Liben. The general supervisor and the Ministry of Industry supervised the construction, and the Qin family personally constructed it. In Luzon, an overseas place, it has already demonstrated the atmosphere of the heavenly dynasty.

The palaces of the royal city are open and spacious, and the pavilions and pools in the Sichuan Garden are extremely beautiful for a while.

The layout has two floors, inside and outside, with the front hall and the back bedroom, the left ancestor and the right society.

Today, blue and white porcelain cups have already been placed on the long red sandalwood case in the Chengyun Hall, and the young servants are running around, serving tea and serving snacks.

Even the red sandalwood official hat chairs are arranged neatly one by one.

These servants who are busy in the palace belong to the official organization of the Qi Kingdom. In the original official system of the imperial court, the prince has two sets of aides and aides, the prince's official and the prince's official.

The state officials are responsible for managing the affairs of the prince's benefaction, food seal, and taxation. .

Qin Lang is now a prince, has 5,000 households that are truly sealed, and has an outer seal as large as Luzon and an inner seal as large as Wu'an, so the task of this state official organization team is still quite heavy.

However, under the current system of the Six Caos, the Cabinet, the Xuanhui Academy, and the Knight Academy in Luzon, the two teams of state officials and government officials have actually been reduced to a servant organization, similar to the imperial court's Ministry of Internal Affairs and Supervisor of the Palace.

The Prince's Mansion was originally a government office, responsible for the Prince's related government affairs. The main officials were Prince Fu, Prince You, Consulting and Joining the Army, Literature, Dongxi Pavilion Jijiu, Changshi, Sima, Zhu Cao and so on.

Now the Lu Song state official team is equivalent to the supervisor in the palace, mainly responsible for the daily life of Qi Wang Qinlang, such as food, clothing, housing and transportation, while the government official team is responsible for managing the affairs of the palace city and the royal city.

Although the power is far less than that of the Three Courts and One Pavilion, it is still an institution of close servants after all.

A bell tolled.

The servants of the state officials hurriedly filed out of the Chengyun hall, while the servants of the prince's official had already led the officials from the three courtyards and one cabinet into the hall.

Academician Xuan Hui was the first to enter.

There are six in total, and they were all awarded the title of Bachelor of Xige by Qin Lang. They are no longer divided into Xuanhui envoys and Xuanwei deputy envoys, and they are all called Xuanhui academicians.

After the six Xuanhui academicians in red robes came in, they stood at the upper right of the long red sandalwood table in the hall.

Tang respected the left.

The cabinet bachelor and the Xuanhui academician who are both the emperor's attendants and advisors, the cabinet bachelor is awarded the Dongge bachelor according to the regulations, and the Xuanhui academician is awarded the Xige bachelor.

The ancients regarded the west as the right, such as Longxi is also called Longyou, and Jiangzuo is also called Jiangdong.

The six Xuanhui academicians were in place, and then the Prince's Mansion joined the army and introduced six cabinet bachelors into the palace. They stood at the upper left of the long red sandalwood case.

The door of the temple is wide open.

After the typhoon, the weather was cool and the breeze was gentle, and the curtains in the hall fluttered with the wind.

Next, the six members of Liu Cao joined the military and entered the palace, and then the six members of the Knight Academy were given a medium job.

Now these twenty-four officials are the ones making decisions about state affairs in Luzon. The chief minister of Qi Wangfu, the two Sima, and the state order and state lieutenant of the Qi Kingdom are not qualified to sit on the red sandalwood conference table. Attendants and supervisors at the gate of the hall.

There was another bell.

Then the whip sounded.

The attendant flicked the long whip vigorously. After three whips, the hall was silent.

The cabinet bachelor took the lead, and all the Luzon important officials in the palace saluted Qin Lang.

Three lashes of the silent whip make people silent, and four lashes of the thousand-year-old whip rang through the sky.

"Everyone, sit down!"

Qin Lang sat down.

The twenty-four officials also sat down.

A pair of eyes looked at Qin Lang.

Qin Lang, who was in his fifties, did not wear the embroidered brocade dragon king robe made by the Shaofu Supervisor Royal Weaving Bureau bestowed by the emperor, but only a Luzon cotton robe, and a pair of old cloth shoes under his feet.

Qin Lang's gaze also swept across the crowd.

Since Luzon implemented the system of three courts and one cabinet, it has been running smoothly for 14 years. Generally speaking, this system has become more and more mature.

Up to now, the system of five-year terms, and the cabinet cannot be re-elected for more than two terms has basically been realized. Slowly pick up the leftovers and make up for the vacancies, and the system is becoming more and more perfect.

Anyway, even if Qin Lang lets go now, it can basically guarantee the smooth operation of the Luzon regime, and the balance between the courts is good.

Even if Qin Lang suddenly died suddenly and was replaced by the young Qin Shishilang or Qin Dalang, there would be no trouble.

"Who is on duty in the cabinet today? Preside over the meeting!"

Zhang Chao stood up, "Chen Lun will be in charge of the cabinet this ten days."

Qin Lang nodded to him, Zhang Chao has been with him for many years, his father Zhang Tieqiang is Qin Qiong's most confidant general, Lao Tieqiang recommended his adopted son Zhang Chao to Qin Lang, starting from Qin Lang's entourage, After more than 30 years of ups and downs, Zhang Chao and Zhang Wenyuan, who are nearly 60 this year, have also become Bachelors of the Luzon Cabinet Xige.

Although the cabinet does not have a head and deputy, and only holds the power to draft votes, and Liu Cao has independent and complete administrative power, Xuanhui Yuan also holds the right to approve reds, and the Knights Yuan still holds the right to deliberate, but after more than ten years The importance of the cabinet is still relatively prominent.

Zhang Chao went from Xinjinshan Bingcao to the governor to the Bingcao of the Luzon Dudu Mansion, and then entered the cabinet. He also reached his current position step by step. Qin Lang trusted him.

This is the fourth year of his first cabinet bachelor term. Not surprisingly, he will definitely be able to serve another term, so he can stay in the cabinet for another six years.

"Today's convening of the courts and cabinets, as usual, we need to discuss next year's budget first, discuss it here first, make some adjustments, and then send the plan to the Knights' Academy. Otherwise, it will be a waste of time and energy if it fails the third reading. If it delays next year's event, it will be even more serious."

"As usual, Hu Cao will report your first draft to everyone first, and then everyone will express their opinions."

Zhang Chao stood there, "Your Highness, before Hu Cao reports, I have one thing to report first."

Qin Lang was conferred the title of King of Qi by the emperor. Although Qin Lang refused to accept it three times, the emperor was a person who could not be refused. In the end, he still let Qin Lang take over the title of King of Qi. Lu Song was a feudal land, and Lu Song officials had to call Qin Lang ministers instead of subordinates.

This basically gave Qin Lang the power of kings such as Linyi and Wa.

"Is there anything important?"

"Yin Anguo, the supervisor of the Lusong Money Casting Supervisor, submitted a letter to the bookkeeper Cao a few days ago, mentioning a more serious matter. The imperial court plans to withdraw the coin minting authorization of the Lusong Coin Casting Supervisor."

Qin Lang frowned.

The Luzon Coin Minting Supervisor can now mint three million guan coins a year, not counting the other eight gold and silver coins, Baoquan, etc., and the profit from coin minting alone is hundreds of thousands of guan coins a year.

If it's just this little money, it's nothing.
