Everyone is very busy.

A few days after the founding ceremony of the New Dynasty, everyone was involved in intense and heavy work.

The army must be dispatched, built barracks, stationed, and staff must be allocated.

What civil servants need to do is to establish many new departments, and new officials and new leaders must be in place.

The entire Shangshutai was broken up and reorganized by Guo Peng, and it would be difficult to rectify it without ten days and half a month.

The Censorate and the Staff Office were relatively stable and there were no major changes, but they were also busy moving materials, reclassifying them, and cleaning their internal affairs, cleaning their official offices.

Cao Cao stepped down as Prime Minister of Wei and came to Guo Peng as the chief minister of the cabinet of his closest trusted minister.

Although I was excited, Lao Cao felt it was very difficult when facing a brand new and unfamiliar department, and for a moment he didn't know where to start.

The outside court was in chaos and busy, and no one had time to deal with government affairs, so government affairs began to accumulate. The officials were anxious and just wanted to complete the administrative structure as soon as possible and start working as soon as possible.

In the inner court, it was also chaotic and busy, and many things had to be done from scratch.

If you don’t talk about anything else, just talking about Guo Peng’s family’s food, clothing, housing and transportation is not a simple matter.

Everyone cannot avoid food, clothing, housing and transportation, especially the royal family. Guo Peng and his family just moved into the palace and needed a lot of things, which made them a little busy for a while.

This is very "helpless".

So Guo Peng saw that the chaos in the previous dynasty had not been sorted out yet and that he urgently needed manpower, so he announced to the public that he had "no" set up four eunuch institutions in terms of food, clothing, housing and transportation, which were specifically responsible for serving the royal family.

Guo Peng started to act.

Shangshenjian, Shangyijian, Imperial Horses, Imperial Services.

As the name suggests, the four eunuch institutions have the same status as the four eunuch institutions.

The members of the four institutions are all eunuchs, and the heads are called eunuchs. Each supervisor has one eunuch in charge of seals, two young supervisors, and the general manager is in charge of the operation.

Through emergency preparations before and after the founding of the country, Guo Peng had only more than 500 eunuchs, and his manpower was slightly insufficient.

However, considering that the number of royal people is not that large, these personnel are temporarily enough. Including the 500 palace maids, the scale of this thousand people is barely enough for the royal family of Guo Wei.

Four eunuch institutions were soon established. Under Guo Peng's manipulation, they quickly started to do things, but soon, Guo Peng discovered the problem again.

The things used by the royal family have to be purchased outside. The four prisoners go out to purchase them. Not only are the procedures cumbersome, but they also waste time and money, and there is the possibility of embezzlement.

So Guo Peng announced to the public that the establishment of a new internal official supervisor would be the royal funding agency, and the unified procurement of all materials needed by the inner court.

After this news, some officials had objections, saying that the royal funds were also placed in the treasury and were allocated by the Ministry of Finance. Now, an internal official supervision is set up. Should the internal officials supervise the money or the Ministry of Finance manage the money?

Guo Peng slapped his head, yes, it makes sense!

So he immediately ordered the establishment of a royal treasury outside the treasury and calculated separately. The Ministry of Finance only carries out the state fiscal expenditure, and the royal funds allocated by the treasury are directly transferred to the treasury and handed over to the internal officials and supervisors to manage the expenditures, so the Ministry of Finance will not worry about the trouble.

Then the number of eunuchs was increased from five hundred to seven hundred.

The official who raised the objection looked confused and had no idea what he had done.

The matter is not over yet. Some officials think that eunuchs are too greedy. They submitted a report to Guo Peng. Later, the story of eunuchs greedy and making money during the two emperors of Han Huanling was advised by Guo Peng, saying that eunuchs were not enough to believe that if they had financial power, they would definitely embezzle ** and wasted royal funds. Guo Peng must observe it.

They still suggested setting up a Shaofu, allowing scholars to take charge of the royal finances.

Guo Peng slapped his head again!

right!

It makes sense!

This is easy to be corrupt.

So Guo Peng turned around and set up a new department in the cabinet, called the Audit Department, which specializes in the audit work of fiscal expenditures.

Guo Peng stipulated that any fiscal expenditure in the inner court must be submitted to the Audit Department through a written report. All of them must be listed and handed over to the irrelevant audit department for review.

From the time when the royal funds enter the internal treasury of the internal officials, the Cabinet Audit Department is responsible for the review. Any expenditures and income must be confirmed at the same time, and then the internal officials can collect and allocate funds. If something goes wrong, the Audit Department needs to be responsible.

Then, Guo Peng "further" thought that eunuchs would embezzle and other officials would also embezzle, so he directly expanded the audit scope of the Audit Department.

Guo Peng ordered the Cabinet Audit Department to extend the scope of audit to the Ministry of Finance. Not only the Ministry of Finance must keep the income and expenditure of the Ministry of Finance itself, but the Audit Department must also keep the record. If there is any problem, the three departments will review it. The two sides will be compared and the problems must be found.

And no matter whether the problem is found or something happens, the audit department will definitely be in charge.

It would be fine if I didn’t ask questions. Once I asked, there was a new department and another step in doing things.

The new emperor Guo Peng did not intend to do what his ministers said at all, but instead set up new departments after another, making the ministers dizzy.

Moreover, the positioning of the cabinet among the ministers immediately changed from a confidential department to an indispensable and important institution. The cabinet that holds the power of audit should not be underestimated.

This power was also in control by Cao Cao, the chief minister of the cabinet. Cao Cao was ordered by Guo Peng to personally arrest the Audit Department and be the guardian of the money bag. A large number of accounting teams in various departments were transferred to the Audit Department of the Cabinet, and the importance of the Audit Department was directly highlighted.

This is not the end either.

Not long after, about one and a half months after the founding of the country, in February of the first year of Yande, Guo Peng felt that all aspects of the inner court were complicated, and it was inconvenient to handle it, and the message was not transmitted quickly enough, so he added a Du Zhiguan in the inner court.

The responsibility of the Duzhijian set up by Guo Peng is to travel back and forth between the imperial city, pass on the emperor's written orders to the government offices, and bring back the written feedback from the ministers to the emperor, asking the emperor to deal with it.

Then, they should also be alert to the place where the emperor wants to go, and check out the site in advance. Follow the emperor when he sets off, and fight with his life if necessary to protect the emperor's safety.

Those who entered the Ministry of Education were all young eunuchs with straight legs and feet, who were responsible for the message, assumed the responsibility of a sound tube, and provided convenience for the emperor to handle state affairs at high speed.

Then, the Shangbao Prison and the Seal and Ribbon Prison were established, responsible for managing, preserving and distributing the seals and ribbons needed by the emperor and empress and officials from all over the country. They must not be mistaken and used as they are taken.

Then, because the use of charcoal and wood for heating and cooking in the palace these days was originally under the jurisdiction of the internal officials. Guo Peng felt that the internal officials had too much supervision, so he set up a fire-taking and firewood supervision to regulate the charcoal and firewood needed by the palace institutions of the inner court, including candles.

Then one day, a case used by Cao Lan had damaged a corner of the table. Cao Lan wanted to repair it and continue to use it, but after giving the order, it was not repaired for a long time.

When Guo Peng heard about this, he immediately felt that it was necessary to set up an institution for repairing objects that everyone could use in the palace.

He further thought that the palace needed a weaving supervisor that could undertake the manufacturing and repair of all the utensils needed by the royal family, so the weaving supervisor came into being.

Guo Peng ordered the Ministry of Works to select outstanding craftsmen to train eunuchs and palace maids in the palace so that they can master certain skills in order to better serve the royal family.

For example, creating furniture, creating gold and silver jewelry, weaving cloth and silk, dyeing cloth, washing clothes, and so on, all of which are required to be done.

The ministers had not yet reacted. Shangshen, Shangyi, Imperial Horse, Imperial Office, Inner Official, Shangbao, Seal, Ribbon, Fire and Carbon, and all the officials and Weaving Prisons. At once, ten eunuch institutions were added to the inner court, which took only a few months from scratch.

This rapid emerged and established, and it was also formal departments, eunuch departments that served the emperor seriously, which made many people at a loss.

For the first time, they learned that serving the royal family required so many departments and so many eunuchs to do it, and their names were very serious, much higher than the Ling Emperor who set up naked swimming pools and the ten regular attendants.

They all gave Guo Peng a thumbs up from the bottom of their hearts, thinking that he was really an exquisite emperor and lived such a delicate life.

What about the promise to live a frugal life?

What about your past thrift?

As a result, the number of eunuchs and palace maids in the inner court began to expand, and the expenses also began to expand, which caused dissatisfaction among some officials.

For example, Cui Yan and Guo Yuan, both of them are more upright people. When they saw that Guo Peng had signs of enjoyment, they directly submitted a statement saying that the new dynasty should be frugal. When the current situation is not settled, will Your Majesty indulge in enjoyment?

Well, just look at me like this.

Guo Peng expressed his satisfaction with the outside world's beginning to speculate that he would start to enjoy himself after becoming emperor.

As long as you don't doubt that I am taking the opportunity to expand the eunuch group to protect the imperial power, everything is easy to say.

Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu of tm were really cruel. They killed all the eunuchs during Emperor Huan's Ling Dynasty. The remaining kittens were destroyed in Hongnong City, and the group of eunuchs in the Han Dynasty was completely destroyed.

Now he has to work hard to cultivate some eunuchs who can fight with scholars...

It’s not easy, it’s not easy. It’s really not easy to cultivate a group into an existence that can fight against scholars. You must also be careful to clamp down and not really let them mess up.

After all, these eunuchs are really just Guo’s own slaves.

Of course it is OK to let them bite outsiders, but if they awaken the will of the ungrateful wolf and start to scatter, it is time to take action.

Sometimes eunuchs are not absolutely loyal, and they are not without them, and they are not without them. It is meaningful to establish a third party.

Therefore, Guo Peng gave the cabinet the power to audit, which can not only be used to cooperate with the Censorate to clean up scholars, but also to clean up the portal.

However, the cultivation still needs to continue to be cultivated, and the organization still needs to continue to be organized.

Because it is more reliable and cute than a scholar, it is more reliable and cute in his own family slaves. At least life and death are in his own hands. Killing an eunuch and killing a scholar has completely different effects.

Then after so many eunuchs' yamen, some of the nine ministers who served the emperor would no longer have to exist, and Guo's slaves could be competent.

For example, part of the power of the Taifu, and the power of the Shaofu.

Especially Shaofu.

The power of the Shaofu is related to the emperor's personal financial power, and Guo Peng will not hand over his money to someone who cannot trust him.

In the future, he would use his slaves to do a lot of things, such as mining. The emperor must have money in his hands, but it cannot be money in the treasury, but money in his own pocket.

So Guo Peng replied to his ministers that the new dynasty was first established and some new atmosphere was needed to show the world, indicating that this was the beginning of a prosperous era.

He is also very frugal, but he just needs to divide the things he does and give his dedicated personnel to better allow the inner court to serve the royal family.

The reply was dry, official articles, and there was no nutrition, which caused the concerns of the ministers.

They were all worried about whether Guo Peng became the emperor, but they were proud and wanted to enjoy it, and they wanted to build big things to enjoy it, and they didn't want to continue to make progress.

At this moment, news came from the south that Liu Zhang was the emperor in Fengtian, Chengdu and inherited the Han heir. He said that the Han Dynasty had not ended yet, and he also appointed Liu Biao as King of Chu and established the State of Chu in Jingzhou.

The two of them raised flags to oppose Guo Peng's usurpation of the throne and called on all the benevolent and righteous people who were loyal to the Han Dynasty to attack Guo Peng and the pseudo-dynasty he established.
