Chapter 1311: King Qi of Luzon

  Chapter 1311 King Qi of Luzon

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

  San Francisco Palace, the former court envoys came to announce the conferment of Grand Master Qin Lang Qi King, and awarded the hereditary seal of succession, and the supervisors and officials of the Ministry of Industry came to build the Qi Palace.

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

  The verandahs of the palace gates and the city gate towers are all 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 mud gold cloud dragon is just like the system of the Eastern Palace.

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

  There is a small wall 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 5 from east to west, 197 Zhang 2 cun 5 from north to south, and five miles around.

  The city gate has five gates, and the south gate is three gates.

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

  The newly built royal city is really magnificent, especially many specifications are built on the Bidong Palace, which 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. The city of San Francisco is similar to an inverted T, while the new Wangcheng is T-shaped.

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

  The nearly three-foot-high Xiao Qiang is not considered high, but the enemy's 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 archery tower. The five-story archery tower is densely covered with countless arrow windows.

  The Chengyun Hall, the front hall of the royal 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 storehouses in Zhou Yuan, and there are eight hundred and eleven rooms in the palace.

   As the main hall of the entire palace city, the Chengyun Hall is north of the Chengyun Gate, facing south, with nine rooms and a height of nine feet nine feet and nine inches.

  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 Princess Taiping, and the east hall is the residence of the prince.

  But because the son has been crowned, he has 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, etc., so that they could attend to the king of Qi for questions at any time.

  There is also the Wangfu Library and the 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 palace in the royal city is 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, with the ancestors on the left and the society on the right.

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

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

  These attendants 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 staff, 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, with 5,000 households in real seals, and an outer seal as big as Luzon and an inner seal as big as Wu'an, so the task of this state official organization team is quite heavy.

  However, under the current system of Liucao, Cabinet, Xuanhui Yuan, and Knights Yuan 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 agency, responsible for the prince’s related government affairs. The main officials were Prince Fu, Prince You, Consulting and Joining the Army, Literature, East and West Pavilion Jijiu, Chang Shi, Sima, Zhu Cao and so on.

  Now the Lu Song state official team is equivalent to the prison in the palace, mainly responsible for the daily life of Qi Wang Qinlang, food, clothing, housing and transportation, etc., 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 Cabinet, it is still an institution of close servants after all.

   A bell chimes.

  The servants of the state officials hurriedly filed out of the Chengyun Hall, while the servants of the prince's officials had already led the officials of the three courts 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 Xige Bachelor by Qin Lang. They are no longer divided into Xuanhui envoys and Xuanwei deputy envoys, and they are all called Xuanhui academicians.

  Six Xuanhui academicians in red robes came in and stood at the upper right of the long red sandalwood table in the hall.

  Tang respected the left.

  Cabinet Bachelor and Xuanhui Academician, who are both the emperor's attendant advisor, are awarded the title of Dongge Bachelor according to the regulations, and Xuanhui Academician is awarded Xige Bachelor.

  In ancient times, the west was the right. For example, Longxi was also called Longyou, and Jiangzuo was also called Jiangdong.

  Six academicians from Xuanhui were in place, and then the Prince's Mansion joined the army and brought six cabinet scholars 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 Liucao 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.

   Another bell rang.

   Then the whip sounded.

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

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

  Three strokes of the whip are silent, and four strokes of the whip are loud.

   "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 a Luzon cotton robe and a pair of old cloth shoes under his feet.

  Qin Lang's eyes also swept over everyone.

  Since the implementation of the three courts and one cabinet system in Luzon, 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 dies suddenly now, and the young Qin Shishilang or Qin Dalang takes over, nothing will happen.

   "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 week."

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 term as a cabinet bachelor. 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."

   "Old rules, let Hu Cao report your first draft to everyone first, and then everyone expresses 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 Kingdom.

   "Anything important?"

   "The supervisor of the Lu Song Mint, Yin Anguo, recently submitted a letter to the bookkeeper Cao, mentioning a more serious matter. The imperial court plans to withdraw the coin minting authorization of the Lu Song Mint."

  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.
