Emperor Daxing’s small and large coffins were filled with numerous affairs and complicated etiquette, but under Zhuge Liang’s personal arrangements, everything was busy and orderly.

Zhuge Liang fasted and bathed in person, divined a good and auspicious day, and decided to hold a spiritual ceremony at the Xuande Hall of Yong'an Palace at the hour seven days later. The kings of Liang and Lu were beheaded, and they drank wine and mourned in front of the hall.

After the ceremony, Zhuge Liang ordered Zi Gong to be invited out of Xuande Hall.

The emperor's Zi Palace has several layers of coffins, which are interlocked with each other. The so-called Huangchangticuo is as huge as a small house. It is also made of high-quality materials from the mountains. The weight is naturally extremely heavy, so it needs to be carried by one hundred and twenty-eight people.

Soldiers came to carry the coffin.

Then, Zhuge Liang led Liu Yong and Liu Li to wait in front of the gate of Yong'an Palace. When Zi Palace passed by, he led the civil and military ministers headed by Li Yan, Zhao Yun and Zhou Mo to kneel down to see Emperor Daxing on his way.

Among the important officials, except Li Yan who stayed in Yong'an, the others escorted him all the way back to Chengdu from Zi Palace.

Under Zhuge Liang's arrangement, all water and land routes that needed to be passed along the way were repaired in advance, with waterways dredged and potholes smoothed.

So it was a smooth journey, and more than ten days later, we arrived at the southern suburbs of Chengdu.

The left-behind officials at all levels in Chengdu had already received written arrangements from Zhuge Liang. Under the leadership of Wang Lian and Yang Hong, and headed by the Crown Prince Liu Chan, they left the city for dozens of miles and were picked up at Guangdu County.

The huge team of officials were arranged in two rows, wearing sackcloth and mourning, wailing and crying, as if they were mourning a heir. The scene was extremely spectacular.

In autumn and August, Liu Bei was buried in Huiling, and he was posthumously named Emperor Zhaolie. Liu Chan's biological mother, Mrs. Gan, died early and was posthumously named Empress Zhaolie. She was also buried in Shu and was buried in the same cave as Liu Bei.

The seventeen-year-old Liu Chan attacked Chengdu, changed the Yuan Dynasty to Jianxing, and granted amnesty to the world. He respected the Queen Wu as the Empress Dowager, and made the daughter of the former chariot general Zhang Fei and the Crown Princess Zhang the empress.

Prime Minister Zhuge Liang was granted the title of Marquis of Wuxiang and was given the title of shepherd in Yizhou.

Li Yan, the protector of the Central Military Commission, was granted the title of Marquis of Duxiang. During the holidays, he was awarded the honorary title of Luxun and was in charge of peace affairs in Yong.

Zhao Yun, Zhou Mo, Liu Yan and others were also Duxianghou.

Wang Lian, Wei Yan, Wu Yi and others were all granted the title of Tinghou.

Yang Hong, Huang Yuan, Fu Wei, Cheng Ji, Liao Hua, etc. were all granted the title of Marquis within the Pass.

Dong Yun, Fei Yi, Huo Yi and other young officials of the East Palace also followed Liu Chan's ascension to the throne and were promoted to Shizhong and Shilang.

All other officials, big and small, also received rewards.

Among them, after Liao Hua fell into the water after Zigui fell, everyone thought he had died in the line of duty.

Unexpectedly, after he fell into the water, he was miraculously rescued by a local fisherman.

Under the careful care of a kind-hearted fisherman, Liao Hua rested for several months and gradually recovered from his injuries. He then concealed his identity and disguised himself as a hunter in the mountains to avoid being interrogated by the Wu army, and traveled thousands of miles west to return to Shu alone.

Unfortunately, when he returned to Shu, Liu Bei had passed away. Liao Hua was so sad that he cried loudly in front of Liu Bei's spirit and almost fainted.

……

Two months later, Chengdu, Shangshutai.

At this time, the Chancellor's Desk was busy inside and outside. Not only were there more official duties than before, but dozens of craftsmen were also engaged in extensive demolition, construction and renovation, preparing to transform it into the Prime Minister's Mansion.

For several months, Zhou Mo has been with Zhuge Liang all day long, getting along day and night, helping with official affairs. He has seen with his own eyes what it means to do everything personally, and what it means to work hard.

Ever since Liu Bei died of illness in Yong'an, Zhuge Liang has been working every day except sleeping. Even if he occasionally catches wind and cold, he has never shown the slightest slack in one day.

Even when sleeping, he usually takes a short break in undressed clothes at Shangshutai Palace, and rarely goes home to rest. He often does this for several days in a row, sleeping for at most two hours a day.

There is no way, there are too many things going on.

Since he was entrusted by Liu Bei to be an orphan in Yong'an, Zhuge Liang has deeply felt the great responsibility of his own. He can't worry about almost every matter and has to personally take care of it.

First, they built Liu Bei's mausoleum, Liu Chan's palace, the Ancestral Temple to worship the first emperors of the Han Dynasty, as well as the Prime Minister's Mansion and other new government offices and the repair of Dujiangyan water conservancy. Each of these projects was extremely important and costly.

Also, since the death of Liu Bei, in addition to the more than 40 Hanjia barbarians who still submitted to the imperial court under the leadership of the Yanniu tribe, the Nanzhong barbarians who were already ready to make a move finally completely broke their skin and launched a large-scale uprising.

Rebellion.

Especially Yong Kai, Meng Huo, Zhu Bao and others were the most arrogant. They burned down Han government offices, killed Han officials, and massacred Han people. They were almost arrogant.

Zhuge Liang immediately appointed Zhao Yun as the general to conquer the south. He moved from Jiangzhou to Bodao, which is closer to the south. However, he only blocked the passes to prevent the rebellious barbarians from entering and disturbing the people. He held off the crusade for the time being on the grounds that they had suffered a new massacre.

The Wei State is not stopping either.

Situ Huaxin, Sikong Wanglang, Shangshuling Chen Qun and other important ministers of Cao and Wei, all well-known figures in the world, took advantage of their huge influence among the gentry in the world to write open letters to Zhuge Liang, urging Zhuge Liang to obey the destiny and surrender the country.

Zhuge Liang was also unceremonious. He wrote a "Zhengyi" article with righteous words, and scolded Cao Cao, Cao Pi, his father and his son, Hua Xin, Wang Lang, Chen Qun and others without any politeness.

This article also declares to the people of the world that even if Liu Bei dies and Zhuge Bingzheng is in charge, the highest program of establishing the Shu Han Kingdom will not change.

In the past, Cao Xinghan was destroyed, now Cao Xinghan is still destroyed, and in the future, Cao Xinghan will still be destroyed.

The traitors of the Han Dynasty do not stand in harmony with each other, and the king's industry does not take sides.

In addition, there is another important matter. Although it is not very urgent, Zhuge Liang believes that it is the most important among many matters.

That is to appoint officials and revise the legal system.

When Liu Bei became the queen of Hanzhong, the situation in the world suddenly deteriorated, so he hurriedly ascended the throne and hurriedly marched eastward. He followed the official system, military system, and etiquette system, and mainly relied on following the old practices, without a good system construction.

Liu Bei also had great authority unique to the founder of the country. He acted freely and boldly, almost as he pleased, and was never subject to so-called rules.

For example, condoning Huang Yuan's lawlessness.

For example, in the Battle of Yiling, Huang Quan commanded tens of thousands of troops in the north of the Yangtze River and surrendered to the Wei State with almost no resistance. However, Liu Bei rejected the document issued by Yousi to punish his family members in Shuzhong according to the law.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!

Of course, this can also be said to be because Liu Bei has a kind heart and knows that Huang Quan is not mainly at fault, so he cannot bear to punish his family members. But if the rules are broken, they are broken.

Huang Quan finally figured out Liu Bei's temper.

Another example is the extraordinary promotion of Zhou Mo, a young man who was just twenty years old and the head of a village. In less than a year, he skyrocketed and became one of the most important ministers.

Such things are actually unreasonable and can easily be criticized. In a country with a mature system, it should be avoided as much as possible.

Of course Zhuge Liang respects all decisions made by Liu Bei during his lifetime. But since he will have the final say in matters from now on, he will never allow himself to do the same.

In Zhuge Liang's ideal blueprint, laws should be formulated for all matters, big and small. Merits will be rewarded and crimes punished. Everything should be based on the law.

Even Zhuge Liang himself cannot violate it.

This is the delicate relationship between imperial power and prime ministerial power. If you make one wrong step, you will be doomed. Zhuge Liang is well aware of the pros and cons.

Zhou Mo saw that Zhuge Liang was walking on thin ice every day and devoted himself wholeheartedly to his work. He never showed any complacency in gaining huge power, and he never sought even a little bit of personal gain for his family.

When dealing with others in private, you should be as usual, modest, polite, dignified and respectful.

In his two lifetimes, Zhou Mo has seen too much human nature, and many social celebrities who claim to be noble. After getting to know them deeply, he found that they are just mediocre people who are just trying to gain fame.

In Zhou Mo's view, selfishness, narcissism and laziness are instincts hidden deep in everyone's genes.

Of course, as long as they don't affect others too much, they are not ugly, they are just ordinary and ordinary.

All outstanding people are the ones who can truly overcome these ordinary and ordinary people.

Such people are rare.

In Zhou Mo's opinion, Zhuge Liang is such a person.
