In addition to these officials, there are also some people who originally served or worked under Liu Feng but did not receive official positions.

For example, Cai Yong, a great scholar today, has also become Liu Feng's father-in-law.

Originally, Liu Feng wanted to give Cai Yong a high-ranking official to support him in his old age, but Cai Yong refused.

Perhaps a few decades ago, Cai Yong was unable to serve as an official because of the ban on the party because of his great talents. At that time, he felt very unfair and wanted to become an official to prove his talents.

But now that he is older, he has long lost the desire to fight. Coupled with his many years of teaching career, Cai Yong feels peaceful and contented.

Therefore, Cai Yong clearly told Liu Feng that he did not want to become an official. He just wanted to stay at Longcheng Academy with peace of mind as the dean, educate children, and continue what he had learned throughout his life.

Naturally, Liu Feng could not refuse Cai Yong's idea, and he had great respect for this old man who was willing to devote himself to education silently.

To this end, Liu Feng specially asked Longcheng craftsmen to build a one-foot-tall bronze statue of Cai Yong and quietly placed it in the courtyard of Longcheng Academy at night.

As a result, as soon as the students entered the academy early the next morning, they were immediately attracted by this lifelike bronze statue. They did not disperse until Cai Yong came after hearing the news.

This bronze statue was personally crafted by Longcheng's third-level craftsmen, and it naturally completely restored Cai Yong's appearance. Cai Yong stood in front of it and looked at it, as if he was looking at himself in the mirror.

Although Cai Yong refused to become an official, he loved the bronze statue given to him by Liu Feng.

In addition to Cai Yong, Ma Chao, the current commander of the Dragon City Cavalry, has also not been appointed by Liu Feng.

After all, although Ma Chao temporarily served under Liu Feng as the commander of the Dragon City Cavalry, he did not completely submit to Liu Feng. He was just Liu Feng's disciple and learned martial arts from Liu Feng.

Moreover, his father Ma Teng was also a prince in Liangzhou at this time. Although he had a secret alliance with Liu Feng, he was not Liu Feng's subordinate after all, and he would even proclaim himself emperor in the future.

If Liu Feng openly appoints Ma Chao, it will make the world think that Ma Chao has completely surrendered to Liu Feng. If Ma Teng becomes emperor in the future, he will be in a dilemma.

Ma Teng may also think that Liu Feng wants to occupy his son, and thus feels resentful towards Liu Feng. This is obviously not what Liu Feng wants to see.

Therefore, he did not give Ma Chao an official title. Ma Chao knew this very well and did not ask Liu Feng. He was even more grateful to Liu Feng for leaving some room for him.

After sealing off the officials in the DPRK, Liu Feng's own harem also needed to have a priority.

Originally, in Liu Feng's mind, because Cai Yan was the first to make an engagement with Liu Feng, and the two came together through"free love", Liu Feng originally wanted to make Cai Yan his queen.

However, Cai Yan has been taught by Cai Yong since she was a child. Not only can she distinguish right from wrong, but she is also very rational. After she discussed with Diao Chan, the two of them took the initiative to find Liu Feng to express their thoughts.

Cai Yan said to Liu Feng:"Husband, today Yan'er and sister Chan'er came here just to advise you not to act out of emotion, and to ask you to make Princess Wannian your queen."

Liu Feng felt very happy after hearing Cai Yan's words. surprise.

Although it was his first time to experience this, he had watched many ancient dramas in his previous life. He knew that the fight between the concubines in the emperor's harem was no easier than fighting on the battlefield, and the level of intrigue was even more cruel.

Therefore, he was originally worried that the three women in his harem would turn against each other in order to compete for the throne. Even if Cai Yan and Diao Chan came to him today, he was already ready to reconcile.

But I didn't expect that Cai Yan would be surprised as soon as he opened his mouth.

So Liu Feng asked again for confirmation:"Yan'er, don't you want to be the queen?"

Cai Yan listened to Liu Feng's words, smiled slightly, and then said:"The queen means the husband's wife, how could Yan'er not want to be the queen?" What?

But this is not a question that Yan'er has thought about. As the princess of the Ling Emperor, Sister Xin'er has a distinguished status, especially the name of her husband, the consort of the Han Dynasty, has long been known to the world.

Now that the husband is the emperor, he does not use the name of the Han Dynasty. The title of the country has already made Lu Zhi, Huangfu Song and other old officials of the Han Dynasty a little dissatisfied. If you don't make Sister Xin'er the queen, I'm afraid they will find your husband to nag you every day. Besides, for the sake of your husband's great cause, in order to let all the people who are interested in the country have to worry about it. Both strong men and loyal people can serve their husband. The husband must make Sister Xin'er the queen."

Liu Feng was moved when he heard Cai Yan's words, but he still said with some reluctance:"But Yan'er……"

As soon as he started speaking, Cai Yan interrupted:"Husband, don't say any more. Sister Chan'er and I have already made up our minds.

Besides, the queen is just a title for outsiders to see. We know in our hearts that your husband is not Because of the title, we will lose a little love for us, so whoever becomes the queen will be the same?"

Just as Cai Yan finished speaking, Diao Chan also echoed:"Sister Yan'er is right, husband, don't shirk it anymore. , hurry up and issue an edict to announce this matter."

Seeing that Cai Yan and Diao Chan were both so sensible and obedient, Liu Feng was moved and said no more. He immediately issued an edict, naming Princess Liu Xin of Ten Thousand Years as the Dragon Queen, and also conferred the title of Cai Cai. Yan was the virtuous concubine, and Diao Chan was named the charming concubine.

Princess Liu Xin of Ten Thousand Years originally thought that Emperor Liu Hong of the Han Dynasty had died long ago and Liu Xie had been killed long ago, leaving her alone and helpless. Liu Feng was already very satisfied with her favor, so he did not compete for the queen at all. thoughts.

Moreover, she knew that Liu Feng and Cai Yan had a better relationship, and when they got married, they had to marry Cai Yan at the same time, so she always thought that the position of queen must belong to Cai Yan.

But he didn't expect that Liu Feng would actually make himself queen in the end.

Later she learned that Cai Yan and Diao Chan took the initiative to approach Liu Feng and asked him to make her queen, so Liu Xin was moved and the relationship between the three women became more like sisters.

After the news spread that Liu Feng proclaimed himself emperor, the world was shocked.

In the next month, various princes proclaimed themselves emperors one after another.

First, Cao Cao established the Wei Kingdom, with the reign name Tianhe, occupying Xuzhou, Yangzhou, and Changsha County and Guiyang County in Jingzhou. Moling was renamed Jianye and the capital was established here.

Ma Teng established the Liang Kingdom, named Xinglong, and occupied Liangzhou, Sili Youfufeng and Jingzhaoyin, and made Chang'an his capital.

Shi Xie established the Cang Kingdom, named Cangwu, occupied Jiaozhou, and made Panyu the capital.

At this point, the eight kingdoms stood side by side and divided the Han Dynasty.
