During the four days of his return, the emperor would let the prince, Shao Shi, Duke of Wei, hold a sword every night, protect him by his side of the tent, so until Chang'an City, the emperor's sleep quality was much restored and his mind was much more relaxed.

Ten days after the carriage returned to the capital, Crown Prince Li Song immediately resigned from the state and retreated to the Shaoyang Courtyard. The emperor, who had figured out most of the matter, convened a grand dynasty meeting in Hanyuan Palace.

All the regular officials in the Tang Dynasty participated in this huge court meeting. When the ministers lined up across the east and west courts and entered the Hanyuan Hall, they then entered the Zichen Hall of the main yamen and sat down. The ones standing next to the incense table were Du Huangshang, Gao Yue, Wei Gao, Du You, Lu Zhi, Han Hui, Zheng Zhi, Dong Jin and other prime ministers. Soon the emperor sat on the throne with the imperial fan. All the ministers gave salutes, and then sat down in the east and west corridors of civil and military.

With the emperor's approval, the court announced the change of the dynasty, and the next year will be the "Year of the First Year of Zhenyuan", and the whole world will be amnesty.

The emperor was originally planning to grant the title of the prime minister, and Fang Yue was a title, but was unanimously rejected by everyone. You still retain the original title. In addition, the emperor wanted to follow the ancient system, give Gao Yue, Wei Gao and others bows and arrows (mainly attack), Jing Yue (special killing), Gui Zan (sacrificial sacrifice), and other ritual vessels, but was also rejected by Gao Yue: "Your Majesty, the so-called "new day by day and new day and new day, how can the reform of this world be stopped? If everything goes back and forth, it will be ridiculed that the name is lost and the truth is lost, and the end is abandoned. In this world, I believe that the goal is to 'reduce the customs from the past and be loyal to the future, believe what the six books cannot talk about, and surpass the hundred kings and get it alone'! Please forgive me for not accepting the crime of ancient princes."

The emperor on the imperial throne nodded, saying that what Gao Qing said was the most.

Then, Lu Zhi presented the "Articles for the New Deal of Zhenyuan" written by himself, and the emperor asked the Secretariat Du Huangshang to recite loudly in front of the Zichen Hall.

The core of Zhenyuan’s new policy lies in what Gao Yue said, “One of the hundred kings is the only one who wins it!”

In administration, the system of Secretariat was implemented nationwide, and the Central Secretariat was integrated into the court. The prime minister team continued to use Du Huangshang as the chief of writing, called the "Prime Minister", while Lu Zhi, Han Hui, and Zheng Zhi were "second prime ministers". The prime minister team was only responsible to the emperor, governing common affairs, and politely exorcising all officials. Two years later, the emperor approved the new list of prime ministers under the Central Secretariat. Of course, Wei Gao was likely to succeed Du Huangshang as prime minister in the name of the Central Secretariat.

While the Zhengshi Hall of the Secretariat was changed to the "Zaotang", the six ministries of the Shangshu Province were changed to the "Zhengyuan", which was led by the Shangshu Pushe, responsible for the affairs operation and the promotion of talent incentives in Taiwan Province. The Shangshu left and right ministers assisted the affairs of the Shangshu Court directly connected with the five rooms of the Zaitang, the Zhongshu Sheren, and the Tongshi Sheren were responsible for communicating with the emperor. At the same time, the Zaitang also directly became the superior organization of the three finance departments of the Ministry of Revenue, the Ministry of Revenue, and the Yantitan.

The three departments are responsible for national taxation and ban, and have also begun to coordinate national budgets. The basic spirit is to live within one's means to live within one's means. Lu Zhi returned the system in the Book of Rites, and wanted to count the amount of tax revenues spent over 30 years, and then set the "universal state-owned use" (that is, the tax rate of yuan). However, Gao Yue advised him that after the new Zhenyuan policy, the country may have a more intense growth period, so the 30-year limit is too restrictive, and it will be better for ten years. Lu Zhi said that if there is a surplus in the state budget, the "holy book" will be audited. If it is insufficient, the "rare book" will be audited and the prime minister will conduct a collective review.

As for the Shangshu Pushe no longer holds the position of Pingzhangshi, his whereabouts are the role of specific execution, he began to separate his power from the prime minister and completely moved towards the role of a government official.

In addition, the original internal and external Privy Council was revived. After that, the Privy Council was no longer responsible for the central government and unified into a new "cardinal" and its powers and responsibilities also changed greatly. According to Lu Zhi's idea, the Cardinal was the "Imperial Military Leadership Organization", with six departments under the Military Fu Department, the General Staff Department, the Imperial City Department, the Censorship Department, the Training Department and the Military Supply Department. After that, except for the important provincial towns along the border, the Yufu mobilized the leadership of the army to the Pingzhangshi of the Secretariat, the military troops in the hinterland provinces were unified under the jurisdiction of the Cardinal, that is, the many soldiers controlled by the imperial court should gradually merge with the imperial guards and be placed under the Cardinal, and become a new type of Tang Empire National Defense Force. As for the Ministry of War, the main responsibilities after that were to select military talents, change candidates in the Wu Temple, publish military theories, study military equipment, etc., and will not be responsible for logistics and conquests.

Of course, the candidate for the Cardinal Commander also underwent relatively fierce discussion.

The emperor paid attention to Gao Yue or Jia Dan who was about to return from the palace.

But Gao Yue once again humbly declined, saying that the Cardinal Council had just been established and its powers and responsibilities were still being explored. My minister Yue took office as the Pingzhang affairs of the Huaihai Shangshu. Since he could not handle the affairs of the Cardinal Council at the same time, what is the difference between it and the zombie position? It is better for Lu Zhi to be the Cardinal Council temporarily, and after the end of the next year, Jia Gong will take over directly.

The emperor's internal entourage officials are still there, such as the counselor, the relic and the censorate, and the emperor can directly issue an imperial edict to choose and promote it. He must not only persuade the emperor, but also act as the emperor's eyes and eyes. This is also the result of Gao Yue's insistence, and he must leave "dignity" to the emperor, that is, the appropriate power to participate in politics and make decisions.

In short, the central government of the empire was actually controlled by ministers from four systems. The Prime Minister of the Crown Hall was "Dong Gong", and he was the central government affairs; the Shangshu Pushe was still the "Dong Gong" of the Zhengyuan (the General Hall of the Shangshu Pushe was located was called Dutang), and he was in charge of government affairs; the Privy Council of the Crown Hall was "Dong Gong", and he was in charge of military affairs; of course, the Crown Chief Crown of the Crown Hall, and the Chief Crown Chief Crown, and the Chief Crown Secretary, but compared with the previous three Dukes, the power of this Duke has been greatly reduced, so it can only be said that he is a Jing's last seat.

In fact, Lu Zhi also wanted to carry out drastic reforms to the emperor's system of prohibition, such as dismissing redundant palace ladies, allowing them to marry freely, and suppressing the Zhongguan Group. However, Gao Yue advised him that everything should not be too hasty, so as not to have too much counterattack. Lu Zhi then gave up.

Of course these are just the first aspects of the Zhenyuan New Deal.

Lu Zhi's idea and ideological reform, that is, he used the emperor's Fengshan as an excuse to re-delete the "Five Classics and Five Rites". This is the real foundation of "a hundred kings who can only get it". However, this matter is not something that can be obtained overnight. What we are doing now is to gather people who are proficient in the ritual system across the country, such as Chen Jing, the magistrate of Jixianyuan, Liu Mian and Lu Chun who are in Wuzhou and Xinzhou, Hu Xijin who have just returned from the book, as well as Liu Zongyuan, Liu Yuxi, Li Jiang, Han Yu and other rookies, collectively promoted the matter.

As for the most urgent matter, Lu Zhi announced in Zichen Hall that:

"The imperial government is restored, respecting the king and expelling the barbarians, building provinces and expanding colonies, and returning the document!"

These sixteen words are loud and echoing the pillars.
