Nitocris is naturally referring to the Pharaoh's forbidden army before the Great Judgment. At that time, officers at all levels in this army, even the lower-level officers, were in the hands of those officials and nobles, or they were their children or they were bought by them. After this led to the great trial, Nitocris had to spend a lot of energy almost rebuilding the Pharaoh's Custodian.

No wonder she was so worried.

"It's very simple," Ye Ting said lightly, "The expansion of the Pharaoh's forbidden army is indeed imminent. After all, compared to the territory of Egypt, the number of the forbidden army established in the past few years is really too small - if it weren't for your prestige, all the rebels would be lost. Looking out, just garrisoning troops everywhere is a big problem in the process of reuniting Egypt."

Having said this, the two looked at each other and smiled, remembering what happened on the battlefield.

"However, for the requests of these nobles, we don't need to give up food because of choking. The Pharaoh's Imperial Army can still absorb noble children. But it must not be like before, the officers of the Imperial Army are all composed of noble children-"

"In fact, the composition of the Imperial Army should be more diversified. We can regularly recruit elites from the garrison corps in various places to supplement it. In addition, we also recruit soldiers from the children of citizens, farmers and merchants in Egypt. You can also re-employ old soldiers, and even recruit soldiers from foreign races and barbarians. By the way, there are also slaves. If the pharaoh announces that the slaves who join the forbidden army can be freed through military merit, those slaves will definitely be extra loyal to you."

"In this way, the various departments of the Pharaoh's forbidden army will be restrained from each other. If one army is unreliable, there will be other armies. Only the Pharaoh can command the entire army. If someone wants to rebel, they will buy all the Pharaoh's forbidden army in order to be safe. ."

"In this process, once there are too many people to buy, the action will be too big. And if the action is too big, it is easy to find flaws, it is easy to be discovered, and then it can be eliminated in the bud."

Ye Ting lightly told Nitocris the whole plan, which made the female pharaoh smile from the bottom of his heart.

"As expected of Thoth, it's amazing! You can get such a plan!" Nitocris said while rubbing against Ye Ting's chest to express her gratitude.

She fell to the ground in admiration for Ye Ting's wisdom.

Although this kind of benefit made Ye Ting very happy, he was still a little worried about the female pharaoh who was always looking for him for help.

"Is it really good for you to do this?" Ye Ting said as if pointing, "You always ask me about everything, and you don't think about it at all. What should you do if your little head is abolished by me? How can a fool be a pharaoh?"

"Hey~ it doesn't matter, it's fine if Thoth is there."

Being so ridiculed by Ye Ting, Nitocris didn't take it seriously. Instead, she was tired of him, and her sweet breath was blowing in his ears.

"If I am abandoned by Thoth, it is all Thoth's fault. Thoth has to be responsible for maintaining me all the time, understand?"

Hearing the pharaoh's coquettish coquettish beside his ear, Ye Ting was dumbfounded for a while.

She was clearly such a domineering female pharaoh outside. Before, she had seen with her own eyes how the nobles shivered under her power in the courtroom.

Why did the female pharaoh become a weirdo after she came to him.

However, who made him irresistible to such contrasting cuteness?

"Okay, okay," Ye Ting scratched the girl's chin, as if he was teasing a big pet, "You can do it like this... I feel like it was a mistake to appear in front of you in the first place."

"Hey hey~" Not only was the girl not disgusted by Ye Ting's actions, but she was delighted, and gave him a cute smile, "Who asked you to quietly appear in such a private place back then, and you looked down on others if you didn't understand it? .I am the only pharaoh in the world, who should rule the world, no one can easily escape after taking advantage of me~”

Well, this sentence is somewhat of the majesty of a pharaoh, but can you stop lying on my lap like a puppy when you say this?

In short, with the help of Ye Ting, Egypt's system is constantly improving. It can be said that today's Egypt has gradually moved from a kingdom of feudal slavery to a centralized empire.

If there is no obstruction from God's Domain, Ye Ting believes that if this momentum continues, during Nitocris' term of office, the territory of this empire may increase several times.

However, even with the separation of the gods, Egypt's territory will expand a lot if the Heliopolis pantheon does not intend to have a god war with its neighbors.

Neighboring nations and barbarians will be out of luck.

Yes, even if the gods are divided, there are neighboring countries and barbarians near Egypt.

The so-called God’s Domain itself is the boundary between the powerful gods. Today, in the vicinity of the Greek gods, there are only the Nordic gods, the Egyptian gods, and the Zoroastrian gods headed by the god of light Mithra on the Persian side. There is that ability to divide the realm of the gods with other gods.

The rest of the indigenous minor gods are not in their eyes at all.

In short, Egypt after the great chaos finally got on the right track and showed a momentum of prosperity.

Chapter 0856 Balance

The remarks of the Egyptian nobles about expelling Ye Ting were not approved by Nitocles in the end.

On the contrary, perhaps out of some kind of rebellious mentality, or perhaps because she wanted to prove that Ye Ting's talent was unquestionable, Nitocris simply gave up the idea of ​​making Ye Ting the queen, and instead gave Ye Ting an official position. Ye Ting's high position.

In the past, the highest official in Egypt was Visher. As the prime minister, Visher was responsible for managing half of Egypt's territory, and there was a Visher in upper and lower Egypt.

And now, on top of Vihir, Nitocris has created an official position of a great sage overseeing the country, ranking above the hundreds of officials, only responsible to the pharaoh, and has the right to supervise hundreds of officials, and the usual responsibility is Advice to Pharaoh.

In short, this is a beautiful job with considerable power, but not so much responsibility, that even official business does not need to be dealt with.

Then, she announced a new resolution shared by herself and the "Great Sages of Supervising the Country" - a resolution on the establishment of official examinations, the establishment of official schools, and the promotion of relevant educational books.

The Egyptian version of the imperial examination was thus born.

Most of the nobles are reluctant to agree to this resolution. After all, in the past, most of the officials were chosen among them. No matter how talented the commoners were, they would only be a document. But now, not only people born of commoners can communicate with them They were officials from the same dynasty, and they had to take exams when they were officials.

Can this be tolerated?

So they want to make a noise, want to mobilize everyone to oppose this new resolution.

However, they couldn't.

After the "Great Judgment" and the Unification War, the central and local nobles in Egypt were weakened by turns, and now their power has reached an all-time low. Contrary to them, because of the "Great Judgment", officials from the common people have been continuously Appointment, and the soldiers born in the unification war also made military exploits, so the power of the officials born in the civilian faction in the court has become stronger.

At this time, these civilian-born officials have only been in high positions for four or five years, and have not been corroded and assimilated by the nobles because of their status. In this way, they naturally want to give more commoners a channel to improve their status.

With their support, the new resolution was passed by Pharaoh's compulsion.

And the officials thought that the people of Egypt were naturally exceptionally supportive of this resolution, so the aristocrats were even more speechless.

Ye Ting's status was also established in this matter.

Moreover, as the writings he shared with Nitocris and used to teach officials spread in Egypt, the name of Thoth was praised by many officials, scholars and even merchants.

Nitocris was also revered as "the wise king".
