Because the Great Liang Dynasty implemented a recommendation system, many officials were recommended internally, and therefore many officials had connections.

Xiao Jingyi didn't want to entrust this kind of thing to people he couldn't trust, so the four of them were the most suitable at the moment.

Of course, the Great Liang Dynasty also held an imperial examination system a few years ago, but later, for various reasons, it was changed back to the recommendation system.

Everyone was immediately overwhelmed; this task was proving to be incredibly difficult.

Even the usually stubborn Cai Quan lowered his head at this moment.

That's right, he's iron-willed and incorruptible.

But he also has family, and they said they couldn't take it anymore.

Seeing that no one responded, Xiao Jingyi turned his gaze to Mei Changsu, who quickly cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, I cannot do this, but there is someone who should be able to."

"The Grand Secretary of the Phoenix Pavilion, Cheng Wuji."

Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes lit up, and they all echoed, "Your Majesty, Lord Cheng is indeed suitable."

"Yes, although Lord Cheng has retired from court, his abilities are exceptional..."

"Yes, I agree."

Seeing that everyone agreed, Xiao Jingyi suddenly remembered that this Cheng Wuji had appeared in the drama once.

He had never met him, but considering that it was recommended by Mei Changsu, he decided to proceed with the matter.

"Okay, let him do it."

Afterwards, Xiao Jingyi talked to them about many other things, such as revising the laws of the Ministry of Justice and waging war against Northern Yan.

Xiao Jingyi was the one doing all of this, and they were listening from the side.

Just as everyone was about to leave, Xiao Jingyi called out to Mei Changsu, "Changsu, wait."

"Your Majesty, what are your orders?"

Mei Changsu stepped forward and said respectfully.

Seeing this, Xiao Jingyi asked, "Are you really unwilling to restore the name Lin Shu?"

Upon hearing this, Mei Changsu paused for a moment, hesitated, and struggled with his decision before shaking his head: "It's fine as it is now."

Seeing his expression, Xiao Jingyi knew what he was worried about and sighed, "Don't worry, I know what you're struggling with. We'll talk about it after the poison is cleared."

"Oh, right, take this."

After speaking, Xiao Jingyi took out a jade pendant, shaped like a jade butterfly, which looked extremely mysterious.

He handed it to Mei Changsu, saying, "This is a jade pendant unique to officials of the Great Liang Dynasty. I was supposed to give it to you tomorrow when I ascend the throne, but it is quite magical and will be of good use to you, so I'm giving it to you now."

"Your Majesty, this is...."

Mei Changsu was taken aback, but still accepted the jade pendant.

As soon as he touched the soft jade, Mei Changsu felt a surge of heat wash over his body, and his previously weak body suddenly gained strength.

"Your Majesty...this is..."

Mei Changsu was shocked. He never expected that a jade pendant would have such a miraculous effect. He quickly looked at Xiao Jingyi with a puzzled expression.

"It seems to have worked for you. Then I can rest assured. Wear this jade pendant properly; it is unique to the Great Liang."

"Thank you for your generous gift, Your Majesty!"

Mei Changsu thanked him again and then withdrew.

Watching his departing figure, Xiao Jingyi chuckled softly: "The Qi Luck Jade Butterfly seems to be working quite well."

The Jade Disc of Fortune was specially made for all the officials by him.

Having cultivated the Emperor's Scripture, Xiao Jingyi had become one with the destiny of the Great Liang Dynasty, and naturally obeyed his commands.

He infused the jade disc with good fortune, so that the wearer could enjoy the protection of the great fortune of the Liang Dynasty.

This will not have a negative impact on the fortune of the Great Liang Dynasty, and it can be considered as him securing a benefit for the officials of the court.

After everyone had left, Xiao Jingyi then walked to the dragon throne.

The dragon throne now also has the blessing of fortune, so when Xiao Jingyi sat on it on March 3.9, he felt his mind was clear and his spirit was high.

"He's ascending the throne tomorrow, it's clearly an auspicious day. How about I have a good stunt today?"

Speaking of lotteries, Xiao Jingyi has participated quite a few times these past few days.

Most of them are military equipment and weapons.

Currently, he has drawn a total of 15 troops from the ranks below the sixth grade.

The sixth rank has 5.

There are 1.2 fifth-rank officials.

All of this was preparation for his later conquests, and at this moment he could say that he had a strong and well-equipped army.

He opened the panel and, without saying a word, used up the 4 points he had saved up over the past few days.

This time he drew three military supplies and one non-specific lottery ticket.

"Ding! Congratulations on obtaining 100 million shi of grain."

"Ding! Congratulations on acquiring 5000 military horses."

"Ding! Congratulations on acquiring 100 siege vehicles."

"Ding! Congratulations on obtaining the Grandmaster general, Ma Chao."

"Ding! The host has accumulated 500,000 points in spending. Hidden rewards: 1 random general card and 1 special item: Zhenguo Ding."

Ok?

That's 50 points already?!

Xiao Jingyi was taken aback, then came to his senses, as if he had thought of something, and looked at the Zhenguo Ding.

The Zhenguo Ding: A special item, a vessel for governing dynasties, used to gather and suppress the nation's fortune.

This is good stuff.

Xiao Jingyi was overjoyed upon seeing this. He had been wondering how to find the items from the Kaiyun Dynasty, but now it seemed that he had already found one of them.

080 Xiao Jingyi ascends the throne! The Great Liang Dynasty enters his era (2.6 flowers accumulated)

"You search high and low without finding it, only to have it come to you effortlessly."

Looking at the Zhenguo Ding (National Protection Cauldron), Xiao Jingyi was overjoyed and then took it out.

"Boom!"

A muffled thud was heard as the giant cauldron crashed heavily onto the floor, even cracking the floorboards.

The cauldron is about five feet long, square in shape, and finely carved with clear patterns, exuding a simple and elegant charm.

The surrounding area is carved with mountains and rivers, symbolizing peace and prosperity for the country.

It gives people a solemn and dignified feeling.

Xiao Jingyi stepped forward and examined it: "Wow, this is really a good thing. Just having it here makes people feel calm."

He then glanced at the ground, looked away, and called out to the outside.

"Dian Wei, come in!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

At this moment, Dian Wei, wearing thick armor, jogged in. He glanced at the large cauldron that had suddenly appeared in surprise, but quickly looked away and bowed, saying, "Please give your orders, Your Majesty."

“Send people to carry this cauldron to the altar of Heaven, and have them place it on the altar after it is completed.”

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Dian Wei then got up and glanced at the Zhenguo Ding. Without calling anyone, he went forward and carried it out himself.

"This guy."

Xiao Jingyi watched Dian Wei leave with a smile, and then took out the general card he had just obtained.

use!

"Ding! You have obtained the Grandmaster-level general, Zhang Fei."

"Oh?"

Upon hearing the system notification, Xiao Jingyi joked, "Did I accidentally stir up trouble in the Three Kingdoms?"

"Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun, Guan Yu, Ma Chao, Huang Zhong."

"Tsk tsk, if this were a card collecting game, would I be considered to have activated the Five Tiger Generals' bond?"

Xiao Jingyi never expected that he would actually be able to gather the Five Tiger Generals.

"When can you send me a civil official or a military advisor?"

Thinking that he now has a multitude of powerful generals around him, while his civil officials seem somewhat lacking, this is not good for the Great Liang in the long run.

A good balance is achieved when both civil and military officials are in command.

 09 However, he didn't say much, and then tidied up some more things.

Just as he was about to return to his palace, he saw Consort Yan walking over with a group of palace maids.

"Your Majesty, I pay my respects."

"Be flat."

"Feiyan, what brings you here?"

Seeing Yan Fei approach, Xiao Jingyi asked happily.

"Your Majesty, I have come to take you to bathe and burn incense."

"Bathing and burning incense?"

Xiao Jingyi was taken aback for a moment, but quickly realized: "Are you referring to the procedures I went through when I ascended the throne?"

Although he didn't particularly like these cumbersome formalities, Xiao Jingyi had no choice but to accept them, so he still remembered quite a bit about the general process.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Consort Yan bowed slightly and then explained, "Your Majesty, after you have bathed and burned incense, you will need to go to the ancestral hall. Please don't find it troublesome."

Yan Fei understood Xiao Jingyi, so she gave him a heads-up beforehand.

Moreover, she had taken the initiative to invite him, because she knew that if Xiao Jingyi became impatient, she could appease him.

Clearly, Yanfei valued these procedures highly and did not want Xiao Jingyi to make any mistakes.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Jingyi took a deep breath and then nodded, saying, "Don't worry, I understand."

Seeing his solemn expression, Yan Fei's eyes lit up. In her opinion, Xiao Jingyi was incredibly handsome when he was serious.

However, she knew this was not the time to be infatuated, so she immediately led Xiao Jingyi to the place for bathing and burning incense.

Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night.

Not only did Xiao Jingyi have no time to sleep, but everyone in the Ministry of Rites and the Imperial Palace was busy and actively preparing.

As night fell, the palace was brightly lit.

As night faded, a blazing sun shone upon the earth.

"Buzz!" "Buzz!"

The solemn bugle call sounded, and the officials entered the palace in an orderly manner. All the officials had stayed up all night to prepare for Xiao Jingyi's ascension to the throne today, and everyone was dressed in formal attire.

The officials waited outside the palace for an hour before a line of imperial guards marched in. Dian Wei led the way with his double hammers, and with each step he took, the officials on both sides trembled.

All the Imperial Guards moved in unison, and after they took their positions, a sharp voice rang out.

"His Majesty is here!"

"Buzz!" "Buzz..."

In an instant, horns sounded in unison, and the sound could be heard throughout Kyoto. Early risers stopped and looked toward the Imperial Palace.

They knew that from this day forward, the Great Beam had a new owner.

As the horn sounded, Xiao Jingyi's imperial carriage slowly appeared before everyone's eyes, accompanied by four generals: Guan Yu, Ma Chao, Zhao Yun, and Zhang Fei.
