Note from asker:
Your suggestion sounds appropriate to me, Liliane. How about "consolidate his power""?
consolidated*
Peer comment(s):

agree Firas Allouzi : I agree with Liliane, rule is more appropraite. Power has more to do with the authorities of the king. حكم has more to do with the kingship rather than the authorities.

Thank you Firas:)
agree rabbas (X) : 'consolidated his rule' - rule implies the power over many things, 'power' simply implies his own capablities, albeit political.
