Myriad Realms Summoning System

Dozens of court officials gathered in the Golden Palace of the Great Zhou Empire. None of these officials were native citizens of this world. They were all summoned by Xiao Chen after he came to this world.

Xiao Chen sat upright on the dragon throne, looking at the civil and military officials in the hall, and nodded unconsciously.

These are his real support and the foundation of his survival in this world. Every one of these people is extremely loyal to him.

Of course, not all the people summoned by Xiao Chen came to the Golden Palace today.

For example, the Huolin Legion, which is still maintaining order in the Tianpeng Kingdom, includes Li Cunxiao, Li Mu, Hao Meng, Zang Ba, Gao Shun, Guo Jia, as well as Zhao Yun, Yang Lin, and Gongshu Chou of the Yingyang Legion.

For example, the Longteng Legion that cleaned up the mess in the Xianglong Kingdom included Zhang Liao, Bai Qi, Yan Qing, Meng Gong, Cheng Yaojin, Lu Bu and Jia Xu.

As for the commander of the Tiger Guards who were heading north, Huo Qubing, and his accompanying Luo Cheng and his Eighteen Riders of Smoke and Cloud, no news has been received yet.

But apart from these people, almost everyone else was present. Even Sun Simiao and Master Xu, who never asked about court affairs, and Zhu Wu, who was in charge of construction projects on Mount Dilin, also came to the Golden Palace.

The people in the Golden Palace discovered the moment they entered the Golden Palace that everyone who appeared in the hall was Xiao Chen's true confidant.

Gathering all the subordinates together in such a complete manner must mean something big has happened, so each of them looked solemn, waiting for Xiao Chen to speak.

Xiao Chen sat upright on the dragon throne, glanced at the people below, and then said in a deep voice: "I summoned you all here today because the empire will face a huge crisis, even the danger of national destruction."

Xiao Chen's words made all the civil and military officials in the hall look at each other in bewilderment, not knowing why Xiao Chen said such a thing.

Xun Yu, the chief civil official, was the first to step forward and ask, "I wonder what your Majesty means by this!"

Xiao Chen's eyes narrowed slightly as he spoke, "According to the intelligence I've received, a large number of peerless experts are heading towards our Great Zhou Empire, including a considerable number of Martial King experts and a large number of experts below the rank of Martial King."

"hiss……"

As soon as Xiao Chen finished speaking, many civil and military officials in the hall gasped.

Although there are many people with great martial arts skills and talents in the hall, few of them have the ability to resist if they face the powerful King of Martial Arts.

Therefore, except for a few martial kings such as Zhang Han, everyone else felt deeply worried.

Can the Great Zhou really contend with so many powerful people?

Xiao Chen glanced at everyone, then suddenly stood up from the dragon throne and said, "I know you are all worried, but I hope you can help me fight this powerful enemy together."

Xiao Chen's eyes were full of sincerity, which made the worried ministers feel a little relieved.

Even their own emperor has such courage, but these ministers are afraid first. It's really shameful.

Although not all the people in the hall are Xiao Chen's die-hard fans, the lowest loyalty level is 70, which is enough for them to stand by Xiao Chen.

At that moment, everyone in the hall stood up, bowed, and said, "We are willing to stand with Your Majesty and fight against all invading enemies."

"Thank you all!"

Xiao Chen bowed deeply to everyone in the hall, expressing his gratitude from the bottom of his heart.

If Xiao Chen had no feelings towards the Great Zhou when he first came to the other world, then now that he has been the emperor of the Great Zhou for several months, he is truly full of feelings for the Great Zhou.

He knew how powerful the enemy he was about to face was, but he did not want to abandon his people just because of the enemy's strength.

If an emperor loses the fearlessness and dominance in facing powerful enemies, he is no longer worthy of being an emperor.

Xiao Chen took a deep breath, calming his expression. Then, he looked at the people below him and said, "In order to ensure that the Great Zhou can face the incoming powerful enemy with the strongest attitude, I will be here today to arrange everything for the next month."

"We only have one month. I hope that within this month, I can make my Great Zhou become a solid block."

Everyone looked solemn and quietly looked at Xiao Chen, waiting for his orders.

"Wang Yue, from today onwards, I will provide you with the greatest possible resource support for the expansion of the Black Ice Platform. You must ensure that the influence of the Black Ice Platform spreads throughout the entire empire."

The Xianglong Kingdom and the Tianpeng Kingdom had just been annexed, and the Black Ice Platform's power in these two kingdoms was still very weak. It was necessary to expand its influence to the new territories as soon as possible.

Xiao Chen continued, "In view of the increasing burden of state affairs, starting today, two more cabinet ministers will be appointed. They will be Xun Yu, Di Renjie, Fang Xuanling, and Du Ruhui."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your respect!"

Du Ruhui and Fang Xuanling immediately stepped forward and spoke.

Being an important cabinet official is the highest position among the civil servants in the Great Zhou Dynasty, representing supreme honor.

Xiao Chen nodded gently and said, "Now that Du Ruhui and Fang Xuanling have been promoted to important cabinet ministers, the positions of the six ministers have become vacant. I am concerned that there are currently no outstanding candidates in the court to take the positions, so you two will continue to serve as acting ministers."

Xiao Chen still has too few civil officials under his command, and it is difficult for all of them to hold important positions in the court at once.

Xiao Chen even set his sights on Gao Qiu. He looked at Gao Qiu and said, "Gao Qiu, how about you take on the position of Minister of Rites?"

Gao Qiu's face lit up with joy, and he knelt hurriedly and saluted: "Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty. I will definitely live up to your trust."

Not long after Gao Qiu joined Xiao Chen, he was appointed Minister of Rites by Xiao Chen, which was a huge surprise.

Xiao Chen appointed Gao Qiu as the Minister of Rites not without consideration. The Minister of Rites was not an important position, and Gao Qiu was a flatterer.

Therefore, Xiao Chen believed that he could do it well.

Glancing at the crowd again, Xiao Chen continued, "Song Ci, from today on, you will take on the position of Minister of Justice, and Zhang Jue will take on the position of Minister of Works."

Xiao Chen was determined to seize all the power in the court into his own hands, and even people with personalities like Song Ci and Zhang Jue were appointed as the top leaders.

The two accepted the appointment without any hesitation.

Five of the six ministers had already been appointed. Xiao Chen said to Wang Yue, "Have Black Ice Platform send a message to Jia Xu, ordering him to return to the Imperial City immediately and take over the position of Minister of War."

Such an important position as the six ministers of ministries was allocated in just a few words from Xiao Chen.

After the central power distribution was completed, Xiao Chen turned his attention to various places.

Today, the territory of the Great Zhou has greatly increased, and the four originally restructured states have also undergone new changes.

Xiao Chen established a central city in each of the four states as the administrative center of the state.

The capital of Dongzhou is Donglie War City, and the capital of Beizhou is Beiming War City.

The capital of Xizhou was the former imperial capital of the Xianglong Kingdom and is now the Xiwu War City.

As for the capital of Nanzhou, it was the former Guangyang County City, now the Nanzhuo War City.

Xiao Chen sent a message, appointing Guo Jia, who was still on the southern front, as the lord of Nanzhuo War City.

Then he sent Shen Pei to Donglie War City to serve as the city lord of Donglie War City.

As for the city lords of Beiming War City and Xiwu War City, Xiao Chen decided to let Bao Zheng, who would come to surrender soon, and Cheng Yu take up the positions respectively.

In this way, both central and local government affairs were firmly in Xiao Chen's hands.
