After arguing for a long time, when Tai Bai and Bai Ze were almost done talking and began to repeat their previous arguments, Hao Tian said,""Alright, stop arguing!"
As soon as Hao Tian finished speaking, Tai Bai and Bai Ze immediately shut up. The anger that had filled the air just now instantly disappeared without a trace. They cooperated quite well.
A clever subject could always give the emperor what he liked the most. This was called 'emotional quotient!'
"What you said makes sense. How about this? You sort out the code of law and let the immortal officials memorize it first. Give them time to consider and let them be mentally prepared. Those who were willing to stay, the Heavenly Court would definitely welcome them. As for the official implementation of the code, it would wait until after the Heaven Worship Ceremony!”
"This subject obeys the decree!" The two immortals did not have any objections, or rather, they would not raise any objections.
"Yes, as the Left and Right Ministers, your responsibilities are heavy, so I'll assign you positions in advance!”
The two immortals shook, they were overjoyed.
The distribution of authority meant that one had power.
Previously, although they had the authority, they were not in the right to speak. Moreover, when it came to specific matters, they could not make a decision when they had different opinions. Now that they had specific responsibilities, it would be different in the future.
The two immortals bowed respectfully, after a pause, Hao Tian announced: "
"From now on, the celestial heavens will establish the Left and Right Ministers! He was responsible for assisting the Heavenly Emperor in handling daily government affairs.
After the Heaven Worship Ceremony, the Heavenly Court would establish the Nine Palaces, namely the Divine Palace, the Immortal Palace, the Taoist Palace, the Buddha Palace, the Human Palace, the Demon Palace, the Spirit Palace, the Underground Palace, and the Demon Palace. They would be dedicated to the nine tribes of Untainted Land!
The Left Minister was in charge of the Divine Palace, the Buddhist Palace, the Human Palace, the Spirit Palace, and the Demon Palace.
The Right Prime Minister was in charge of the Immortal Palace, the Daoist Palace, the Demon Palace, and the Underground Palace.
The position of Left and Right Prime Minister was assessed once every three thousand years. From now until 3,000 years after the Heaven Worship Ceremony, Bai Ze will be the Left Prime Minister and Tai Bai will be the Right Prime Minister!”
Haotian didn't assign the nine palaces according to the nine palaces of the Discipline Department because some tribes were too weak to set up a palace. Therefore, he merged the spiritual and monster races into a spiritual palace. The underground palace did not only refer to the Ghost Clan, but also the entire Nether World. Haotian was preparing to subdue the Nether World! After that, a Dao Palace was added. No matter what, the four religions would definitely be the greatest opponents of the Heavenly Court in the future. It was necessary to build a special Dao Palace.
When Tai Bai and Bai Ze heard this, they were shocked, happy, and worried.
They were surprised that Haotian had given them a lot of power. If they were to distribute it like this, they would have the right to control almost all the creatures in Untainted Land.
The one who was worried was the Demon Palace.
It was unknown whether Haotian had deliberately given the Demon Palace to the Right Prime Minister, which made Bai Ze unable to control the development of the Demon Race.
If this was the previous Bai Ze, he would definitely argue with reason. But now, after seeing the potential of the Heavenly Court and Haotian's ability, ambition, and virtue, Bai Ze hesitated and did not stand up. It was a silent agreement.
Tai Bai was also worried because of the demon race. After all, Tai Bai only had the strength of a Primordial Unity Golden Immortal. Although he would be the Right Prime Minister in the future, it would be extremely difficult to intimidate the demon race!
This was the result that Haotian wanted. If everything was done according to the will of the officials, what was the use of him, the Heavenly Emperor?
Bai Ze and the demon race had to be separated. Regardless of whether Bai Ze had any disloyalty to the Heavenly Court, he could not let Bai Ze manage the demon palace. This was for Bai Ze's own good, and also for the good of the heavens.
Without giving the two immortals time to think, Hao Tian continued: ""Other than the Nine Temples, the celestial heavens will also establish five divisions, namely the Guardian Division: The Military Administration Division was responsible for external warfare. He was in charge of Heavenly Court's finances, the Land Administration Division was in charge of the Earth Immortal Realm's affairs, and the Internal Affairs Division was in charge of Heavenly Court's logistics!
I am personally in charge of the five divisions. If you want to use the five divisions, you need to get the approval of me, the Queen Mother, or the head of the five divisions!”
Tai Bai and Bai Ze felt a chill in their hearts, and the joy they felt earlier quickly faded away.
They thought that with the Nine Temples, they could control the entire Heavenly Court.
However, once the Five Divisions of Haotian became independent, it was equivalent to taking away half of the main authority of the Heavenly Court!
Although they had absolute authority over the Nine Temples, without the cooperation of the Five Divisions, there were many things they could not do.
For example, if there was a demon rebellion in the lower realm, after the Demon Palace dealt with it, they would need to ask the Guardian Division or the Military Administration Division to take action to capture the evil demon. Without the Guardian Division or the Military Administration Division, they would not even be able to subdue the demon and eliminate the demon.
In this way, no decision they made could escape Haotian's control.
Moreover, this way, the Five Divisions and Nine Temples could form a perfect balance! As long as Haotian stabilized this balance, the Heavenly Court would be as stable as Mount Tai.
After thinking things through, Tai Bai and Bai Ze sighed in admiration.
After all, he was the Celestial Emperor. No matter how smart they were, they could not escape Haotian's control!
In fact, there should be gods in the proper Heavenly Court.
For example, the four divisions of Thunder, Fire, Plague, and Battle, as well as the Starlords of the Stars.
However, these were not urgently needed by the Heavenly Court, and they were the main God Thrones of the God Rankings. Haotian also intended to use the Investiture of the Gods to plunder and weaken the four religions, so these God Thrones were taken out by Haotian!
In fact, these Deity Thrones were important and unimportant. They were the kind of Deity Thrones that would never be removed once they were appointed as long as they did not court death.
Different from the Five Divisions and Nine Temples, the Five Divisions and Nine Temples competed with hard power. The capable would go up, and the mediocre would go down. No matter how long the lifespan of an immortal was, if one's ability could not keep up, they would have to give in sooner or later!
Haotian had a premonition that the future Heavenly Court would be divided into two factions.
One was the Secretary of the Palace Faction, which was a high-ranking faction with great power and benefits, but the pressure of competition was great.
The other faction was the Star Sect. It belonged to the pension department. It had little power, light tasks, and low pay, but it was indeed a secure job!
The struggle between the two factions might also be the struggle between Haotian's loyal faction and Haotian Taoism's salted fish faction after the apotheosis!
