Peach Blossom Mountain Liu Jiaxiu's Biography

Chapter 1196 The Difficulty of Governing a Country
The establishment of the Han Dynasty was undoubtedly a great event for the Poseidon race. The Liu family's move indicated that they would inevitably embark on a journey of external expansion.

This situation made the top leaders of many old-fashioned immortal cultivation forces worried, and the most nervous among them was the Dayan Immortal Dynasty, which was closest to Penglai Island.

Although the current Great Han Dynasty actually controls only one Penglai Island, compared to those old-fashioned top immortal cultivation forces with profound heritage and vast territory, the Great Han Dynasty is far different in population and land area, and is not at the same level at all.

However, it cannot be ignored that the Liu family has three powerful people in the Tribulation Crossing Stage. These three powerful people are like three sharp blades hanging high in the sky, exuding a chilling aura. Once the Great Han Dynasty really starts the war machine of external expansion, looking at the entire Sea God Star cultivation world, I am afraid that few cultivation forces can rely on their own strength to compete with the Great Han Dynasty alone.

From a strategic perspective, the Han Dynasty has two expansion paths in the future. One is to expand into the depths of the Wuji Sea. But this road is full of thorns, like groping in the dark. The depths of the Wuji Sea are mysterious and unpredictable, hiding countless unknown dangers and powerful sea beasts. Every step forward requires huge manpower, material resources and time costs. In that deep sea, difficulties and obstacles follow like shadows. To open up a new territory is undoubtedly a long-term and extremely arduous task.

In sharp contrast, if the Great Han Dynasty chooses to expand towards the Mazu Continent, the situation will be much simpler. Although there are many immortal cultivation forces on the Mazu Continent, as long as Liu Changxu, the peerless strongman, takes action, relying on his terrifying strength, as long as he defeats the other party's tribulation-crossing period elder, the expansion of the Great Han Dynasty on this continent is very likely to be unstoppable. After all, in the cruel struggle of the immortal cultivation world, the strength of the top strongmen often plays a decisive role.

It is based on this judgment that since the news of the establishment of the Great Han Immortal Dynasty came out, Murong Qingyun, the only pillar of the Great Yan Immortal Dynasty, has fallen into deep worry.

He knew very well that the establishment of the Great Han Dynasty had become a key factor in the future changes in the entire Sea God Star cultivation world, and its every move in the future would have a profound impact on the future direction of this continent.

However, as an "old monster" who has experienced the baptism of tens of thousands of years, Murong Qingyun's depth of mind and rich experience are beyond the reach of ordinary people.

Faced with the ever-changing situation, he remained calm and quickly summoned all the high-level officials of the Dayan Immortal Dynasty to gather in a secret room to discuss countermeasures.

After an intense discussion, they quickly decided on a solution.

On the one hand, the Great Yan Dynasty decided to maintain friendly relations with the Great Han Dynasty as always. Through marriage and trade, the relationship between the two families was enhanced, so that the Great Han Dynasty could feel the sincerity and respect of the Great Yan Dynasty and have no time to covet the Great Yan Dynasty.

On the other hand, the Great Yan Immortal Dynasty will focus all its efforts on supporting the powerful people of the clan who have achieved the Great Perfection of the Combined Body to reach the Crossing Tribulation Stage. They know very well that only when they become stronger can they be safer.

Finally, the Great Yan Immortal Dynasty also began to secretly connect with other top human immortal cultivation forces, hoping to work together to deal with the threat from the Great Han Immortal Dynasty.

However, unlike what the Great Yan Immortal Dynasty had guessed, Liu Changxu now had no thoughts or ideas about expansion at all.

Because the Immortal Dynasty was just founded, Liu Changxu, as the Immortal Emperor, had to be busy. He had to discuss matters with the top leaders of the Liu family in the Qinzheng Hall of the Penglai Immortal Palace every day.

At this moment, the most pressing and core problem facing the Great Han Immortal Emperor Liu Changxu is how to build a complete set of effective and interlocking administrative institutions to achieve proper governance and strict control of the vast land owned by the Great Han Immortal Dynasty.

Although the Great Han Dynasty cannot be compared with the Great Yan Dynasty with a profound foundation in terms of area, it also has a radius of more than 100,000 miles. If it can be reasonably and fully developed and utilized, this land has the potential to feed tens of billions of people.

Although most of the land on Penglai Island is still in its undeveloped original state and the current population on the island is only three million, maintaining order on the island is more difficult than one can imagine.

There are deep-seated reasons why Liu Fuba is so eager to establish the Immortal Dynasty.

In recent years, the number of people on Penglai Island has shown a trend of rapid growth. Under such circumstances, the traditional governance model that relied on family management has become increasingly stretched and unable to cope with the situation. At present, the total population of the Liu family is only more than 50,000, of which the number of monks is only more than 2,000. However, they are responsible for ruling a population of more than 3 million and managing a vast area of ​​more than 100,000 miles.

Faced with such a large population base and vast land, it is difficult for the Liu family to achieve comprehensive and efficient governance with its existing human resources and management model, and many problems and hidden dangers have quietly arisen.

To be honest, the reason why the Liu family was able to barely control such a vast land was entirely due to the terrifying strength of Liu Changxu and a group of Liu family senior officials.

However, it is easy to build an empire, but it is not easy to keep it. We can't let powerful people like Liu Changxu who have overcome tribulations to handle the trivial management affairs personally every day, right?

Today, Penglai Island is facing a situation where the Liu family is seriously short of manpower, so the order on the island can only maintain basic peace. Disputes frequently occur in the streets and alleys, but no one mediates in time; resources are unevenly distributed, and conflicts are imminent. If this continues, it will inevitably affect the development of Penglai Island.

As the Immortal Emperor of the Han Dynasty, Liu Changxu naturally realized the seriousness of the problem.

On the one hand, he must carefully plan and establish a scientific, reasonable and effective administrative agency. This agency must cover all areas, from defending against foreign enemies to maintaining public security, from resource allocation to economic development, and must have a clear division of labor and an efficient cooperation mechanism.

On the other hand, suitable talents should be selected to serve as officials in administrative agencies at all levels. These officials should not only have excellent management skills, but also be impartial so that they can be responsible for the specific management of Penglai Island.

After repeated discussions with the top leaders of the Liu family, Liu Changxu first determined the administrative structure of the central government of the Xian Dynasty.

Referring to the institutional setting experience of other immortal dynasties and combining it with its own original experience, the Great Han Immortal Dynasty decided to establish the following institutions to take charge of all affairs of the Great Han Immortal Dynasty.

Council of Elders: As the most powerful institution in the Great Han Dynasty, its status is extremely respected. The members of the Council of Elders are also called elders, all of whom are selected from the Liu family and the high-level masters of the Great Han Dynasty. In addition to reaching the fusion stage, they must also be recognized by the Council of Elders and the Immortal Emperor.

In the decision-making process of many major issues, the Council of Elders holds an extremely critical power - the power to veto the Immortal Emperor's resolutions.

This power check and balance mechanism is by no means a simple power game, but an important guarantee for the long-term stability of the Xian Dynasty. It ensures that every major decision of the Xian Dynasty can be carefully weighed and comprehensively considered.

If the Immortal Emperor's resolution contains major hidden dangers or fails to conform to the long-term development interests of the Immortal Dynasty, the Council of Elders will have the right to exercise a veto.

General Affairs Hall: It can be regarded as the central nervous system of the daily operation of the Great Han Dynasty, and is the key to the normal operation of the entire Dynasty. It shoulders the heavy responsibility of the daily management of the Dynasty, and the areas involved are extremely wide and all-encompassing.

Law Enforcement Hall: As the staunch guardian of the internal order of the Immortal Dynasty, the Law Enforcement Hall shoulders the sacred mission of maintaining the security and stability of the entire Immortal Dynasty.

Baiyi Hall: As the core institution for the inheritance and development of the immortal cultivation skills of the Xian Dynasty, Baiyi Hall plays an irreplaceable and important role in promoting the prosperity of the immortal cultivation culture of the Xian Dynasty and improving the overall immortal cultivation strength. It is fully responsible for the management of the entire Xian Dynasty's immortal cultivation skills, covering many fields such as alchemy, refining, talisman making, and array formations.
