Chapter 297: Enthronement Ceremony (4) Divided into 6 parts
"I am the master of the world!" Xingye Feng is full of ambition, like the clouds in the sky, hanging high in the sky, overlooking all living beings.
The sonorous and powerful sound was transmitted to every corner of the palace, and then spread outside the palace, like the sound of a huge bell, and its momentum did not diminish in the slightest.
This sound seemed to shake the heavens and the earth, announcing to the world and setting the tone for Konoha.
"From now on, Konoha will be changed from a village to an empire. The Konoha Empire is the only one. All other country names are heretical. There is only one country in the ninja world."
In just one year, the country that had once survived the Third World War was finally swept into the dust of history.
Without the support of the people, they will be like duckweed floating in the wilderness, with no stability. It will be easy to take their territory and they will be unmatched.
"No ninja village is allowed to exist. Violators will be exterminated."
During the Third World War, the Three Kingdoms swallowed up the surrounding villages, but some still remnants. In order to avoid breaking the law by force, Xingye Feng ordered the abolition of these small villages and unified management.
If you are not convinced, then try to see how powerful Konoha's soldiers are.
Among them are the original four major ninja villages. The Sand Village is progressing smoothly, so direct relocation and immigration are sufficient, while the other large ninja villages have taken some effort.
But without a leader, they were unable to stop the attack and were forced to move to Konoha.
Among them, the resistance of ordinary people is almost negligible, but the ninjas have strong willpower and are unwilling to return.
In this situation, Xingye Feng won over some, suppressed some, eliminated some, and simply divided the spoils among them.
The flames of resistance will be extinguished hereby, eliminating the possibility of their resurgence.
Everyone listened to the holy words with their heads bowed, none of them showing any sign of dissatisfaction and were convinced from the bottom of their hearts.
After Xingye Feng finished speaking, he paused deliberately, looked at the people in the front row with a deep gaze, and then continued.
"When an empire was first established, it was like a newborn baby. The original system was no longer suitable for the present."
As Xingye Feng continued to speak, everyone looked stern and thought to themselves, "Here we go, here comes the point."
He secretly clenched the corner of his clothes until his knuckles turned white. He had been waiting for the reward for all his efforts in the past year.
There is no such thing as a quick rise without profit. It is true that they have great ambitions, but they are still human beings after all. As human beings, they have desires and will think about leaving a legacy for future generations.
“As the saying goes, policies change with the times.”
“So, I decided to abolish the old system and adopt the six-department system.”
After saying that, Xingye Feng nodded to Gu Jie, then closed his mouth and rested, leaving the stage to Gu Jie.
"The emperor is destined to be carried by heaven, and the edict says:"
"The empire is just born, so we should change the system to follow the general trend. We are now divided into six departments with detailed responsibilities."
"The six ministries are: the Ministry of Personnel, the Ministry of Revenue, the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Punishments, and the Ministry of Works."
"Ministry of Personnel: Responsible for the appointment, dismissal, and transfer of civil servants throughout the country."
"Ministry of Revenue: in charge of the country's land, household registration, taxes, currency, official salaries, fiscal revenue and expenditure, etc."
"Ministry of Rites: in charge of the country's laws and regulations, sacrifices, schools, education, etc."
"Military Affairs: Responsible for the mobilization of ninjas and samurai across the country."
"Ministry of Justice: in charge of the country's laws, criminal justice and other affairs."
"Ministry of Works: in charge of various projects, craftsmen, military farms, water conservancy, transportation and other government orders."
"The heads of these six ministries are all of the second rank, and are high-ranking officials at the core."
"Each ministry shall have a deputy minister, who shall be of the second rank."
Gu Jie explained all the responsibilities of the six departments in one breath, causing everyone below to fall silent for a moment, then they became excited and started talking to each other in low voices, with joy on their faces.
Although the new policy is unfamiliar, the power is obvious, and the head of a department has far more power than before.
Originally they were still wondering how the reward would be given, but it turned out to be like this.
At this moment, they couldn't help but feel a little restless. After all, who doesn't want to sit in the position of minister, the descendants of Fukuzawa.
Of course, there were those who were jealous, but there were also those who were more rational. Uchiha Fugaku took a few steps forward, bowed respectfully and saluted.
"Your Majesty, may I ask what this grade means?"
Hearing this, Xingye Feng said with a smile: "This grade represents the level of status. There are nine grades and eighteen levels in total. Among them, the first grade and the second grade are just honors and have no real power."
"The second rank is the highest rank for an official. To be above that, one must be a marquis or be promoted to the third rank of master."
After explaining it in two sentences, everyone suddenly understood and understood that grade is very important.
"Of course, there are more official positions than these. There are many more that have not been explained yet. They will be announced to the world later to make it clear to the people."
After saying that, Xingye Feng signaled Gu Jie to continue.
Gu Jie took out a bright yellow scroll, unfolded it and said, "Uchiha Fugaku is appointed as the Minister of Justice, in charge of the national criminal law. I hope you will live up to His Majesty's high expectations."
"I accept your order and thank you." Uchiha Fugaku kowtowed to accept the order, his expression extremely excited.
Although I had anticipated this, I was still shocked when the appointment came.
The Criminal Tribe, one of the six tribes, joined the Uchiha clan, which means that the Uchiha clan will still be a top family.
When others saw this, they were extremely envious and their eyes were almost red with jealousy. Unfortunately, it was of no use and they could only stare blankly.
This also aroused their desire even more, and they looked at Gu Jie eagerly, hoping that the next minister candidate would be announced as soon as possible.
Gu Jie naturally did not delay and announced it loudly.
"Izawa Ikumi is appointed as the Minister of Revenue, in charge of the country's land, administrative revenue and expenditure, etc."
As soon as these words came out, countless eyes fell on her.
Scrutiny, anger, unwillingness, all kinds of emotions emerged in everyone's hearts, and they were all different.
"I... obey your order and thank you." After hesitating for a moment, Izawa Ikumi looked at Hoshino Kaede sitting on the dragon throne above and sighed softly.
Seeing this, Xingye Feng also sighed. He didn't want to do this in the first place, to let a man who was nearly fifty years old work so hard.
However, he needed someone who was absolutely loyal to him.
Yumei is the most suitable candidate. He once served as Minister of Commerce and has now been promoted to Minister of Households. The powers overlap, so it will be easier for him to get started.
The six departments are of great importance and it is impossible for them all to be controlled by the ninja clan. Ordinary people must be involved.
And Yumei is one of them.
Then, Gu Jie spoke again, "Hinata Hiashi, appointed as the Minister of Works, in charge of various projects, craftsmen, military farms, water conservancy, transportation and other government orders."
This appointment did not cause any waves. The Hyuga family has a profound foundation and is an old-established ninja clan. In addition, Hizashi was once His Majesty's personal bodyguard, so it is normal for him to be favored.
"Your Majesty, I obey your order and thank you!" Ri Zu walked out of the queue and kowtowed to express his gratitude.
After hearing this, Xingye Feng smiled and encouraged him a few words: "Your position is extremely important. I hope you will not let me down."
Among the six parts, three have already had their owners, and the remaining three are eagerly awaited by everyone.
"Appoint Nara Shikaku as the Minister of Personnel, responsible for the appointment, dismissal, and transfer of civil servants throughout the country."
