Usurping the Mongols: My Father-in-Law is Genghis Khan

Until now, this conferment had not yet ended.

Temujin then issued another decree, wanting to name some who had made special meritorious service to speak with him inside the Khan's tent.

The first to enter was Temujin's foster father, "Father Menglike".

After talking for a while, Temujin's decree came: a special favor was granted to Father Menglike, allowing him to commit nine crimes without being punished.

Then, it was Bo'er Shu, also with nine unpunished crimes.

The third, naturally, was Zhao Shuo.

After the ceremony, just as Zhao Shuo sat down, Temujin opened his mouth and asked: "A'Shuo, just now I didn't appoint you as a Left or Right Wing chiliarch like Bo'er Shu and Mu Huali, but instead appointed you as a Separate Tribe chiliarch like Huo'er Chi, do you have any objections?"

"No," Zhao Shuo replied without hesitation, "My fief is in the Hulunbuir Grassland, where some workshops have already been built. If Father Khan appointed me as a Left or Right Wing chiliarch, then I would need to move my fief. Appointing me as a Separate Tribe chiliarch is Father Khan showing consideration for me, so how could I not appreciate it?"

"It's good that you understand, A'Shuo."

"There is also the matter that I plan to expand the Central Army to ten thousand after becoming Khan, and rename it the Kheshig…"

After briefly introducing the arrangement of the Kheshig, Temujin said to Zhao Shuo: "I plan that among these ten thousand Kheshig soldiers, the positions of six chiliarchs will forever be held by the relatives of you, A'Shuo, Mu Huali, Bo'er Shu, Bo'er Hu, Chi Lao Wen, and Zhu'er Che Dai. Others are fine, but you, A'Shuo, currently have neither sons nor other relatives, I wonder who you plan to recommend to take this chiliarch position?"

Zhao Shuo said: "There is a young man named Sulun who is very good. His father, Su He, is very familiar to Father Khan, he is both the chiliarch under my command now, and has also served as your quiver-bearer. His older sister, Suna, is my fourth wife. In addition, Sulun's martial arts were also taught by me, so he can be considered half my disciple."

In fact, Zhao Shuo married Suna not long after returning, and a large part of the reason was for today's matter.

Zhao Shuo estimated that with the merits he had made, he should be able to obtain a recommendation right for a Kheshig chiliarch permanently, just like Mu Huali and others in historical records.

If he doesn't take this spot now, it will be difficult to get it in the future.

It would be a great loss not to use the power when you have it, and not to arrange someone.

Temujin was very satisfied with Sulun's identity, and said: "Very good, knowing the roots and the bottom. Since it is A'Shuo who recommends him, let Sulun take the position of a Kheshig chiliarch."

"Thank you, Father Khan."

After that, Temujin's expression became serious, and he granted Zhao Shuo the privilege of nine unpunished crimes.

On the surface, the Mongol Empire's privilege of nine unpunished crimes and the Central Plains Dynasty's iron certificates were similar.

However, in essence, there was a big difference.

The iron certificates of the Central Plains Dynasty, no matter how many times they said they would pardon death, had to be attached with a special condition: except for treason.

Later, the Central Plains emperors became accustomed to killing the bird once the bow was no longer needed, and the iron certificates simply became a death warrant for meritorious officials.

Whoever got this thing felt disgusted.

For example, during the reign of Emperor Dezong of Tang, the emperor issued an edict to grant Li Huaiguang the title of Grand Commandant and bestow him an iron certificate. Li Huaiguang was immediately furious and said: "Whenever a subject is suspected of rebellion, a certificate is bestowed. Now bestowing it upon Huaiguang is to make me rebel."

The meaning was: The emperor suspects his subjects and only then bestows iron certificates, this is forcing me to rebel.

Therefore, Li Huaiguang raised troops to rebel, and the Tang Dynasty spent a great deal of effort to quell it.

The privilege of nine unpunished crimes given by Temujin was much more generous, without any additional conditions. Saying nine unpunished crimes meant nine unpunished crimes, even treason would not be punished, without any exceptions.

Of course, the privilege of nine unpunished crimes was so important that Temujin bestowed it very cautiously.

Only Menglike, Bo'er Shu, Zhao Shuo, Chi Lao Wen, Mu Huali, and Temujin's sworn brother Shigiqutu were granted the privilege of nine unpunished crimes.

Subsequently, Temujin announced the "Great Yassa".

The Great Yassa was the law of the entire Mongol Empire.

From today onwards, the Kurultai Assembly became a fixed rule.

The heir designated by the Mongol emperor himself does not count, a Kurultai Assembly must be convened and recognized by all the nobles to be the emperor of the Great Mongol Empire.

Another very important point was that it was forbidden to snatch brides.

Intra-clan marriage was not popular on the grassland, they liked to snatch women from other tribes. Snatching back and forth, it triggered countless wars.

For example, Temujin's mother, He'elun, was snatched by Temujin's father from the Merkits.

Later, the Merkits retaliated and snatched Temujin's wife, Bo'erte.

The blood feud between the Mongols and the Merkits was thus created.

Temujin suffered greatly from this, so he made a rule: those who snatch brides will be executed. Those who commit adultery within the clan will be punished by the chiliarch.

The newest novels are all first published on Liu 9 Shu Ba!

Completely separating marriage and battle.

"Matters within the felt tent are resolved within the felt tent, matters on the battlefield are resolved on the battlefield".

If the previous conferment was only related to a group of Mongol nobles, then this "Great Yassa" was closely related to all Mongols.

"Long live Genghis Khan!"

"Long live the Great Mongol Empire!"

…

The cheers under the altar thundered, and the cries of long live were endless.

Then, there was a large-scale banquet, as well as equestrianism, archery, wrestling and other entertainment activities.

Temujin announced that the celebration would last for half a month, and all expenses would be borne by the newly established Mongol court, and the entire royal court was in jubilation.

Of course, in this jubilation, there was also an undercurrent surging.

That night, inside Zhao Shuo's tent.

"Husband, let this concubine serve you to undress,"

Tonight, Hua Zheng went to accompany her mother, Bo'erte, to talk, and it was still Hulan and Aliya who served him. The two women, one on the left and one on the right, served Zhao Shuo to take off his Mongol robe.

Zhao Shuo drank a lot of wine, smelling the faint fragrance of the two women between his nose, smiled faintly, and became interested.

Aliya's body was soft and her chest was generous. Hulan was gentle, slender, and boneless. One on the left and one on the right, each with their own charm, he embraced the two women and walked towards the couch.

However, just at this moment, suddenly a voice sounded outside the tent, saying: "Reporting to the consort, Mo Chi Bie Du Wen requests to see you."

Zhao Shuo frowned slightly: "Mo Chi Bie Du Wen? What is he doing here."

Coming to visit him at this time is a bit too tactless.

After dark on the grassland, there is no light, it is dark and empty, and generally Mongol nobles are doing the same thing at this time. Few people with bad brains would choose to come to pay a visit at this time.

Despite this, Zhao Shuo still asked Aliya to tidy up his clothes and come to see Mo Chi Bie Du Wen.
