The rebellion of the two thieves lasted for six years, from the fourteenth year of Tianbao to the fourth year of Zhide, and the population of the world was reduced by more than 30%. Almost every family, every family, had their children die in the rebellion. The particularly serious guards are Hebei, Hedong, Henan and Guanzhong.

Especially in Guanzhong, it has experienced two catastrophes, one is when Sun Xiaozhe broke through the pass and besieged Chang'an City, and the other is when the Tubo people captured Chang'an City. Especially the latter, the Li Tang clan was tragically confided, and the survivors took one step out of ten.

If the clan magnates are like this, let alone the common people?

The cavalry of the victory passed wave after wave along the official road leading from Tongguan to Chang'an, and in less than a day's effort, half of the pass knew the exciting news.

Chang'an City was also jubilant because of this, and everyone's faces, regardless of the government and the people, were deduced with joy from the inside out. The end of the war meant that the children of the expedition could finally return to their hometowns.

However, on the contrary, Qin Jin couldn't laugh at all.

There are too many official documents and military newspapers piled up on his desk, and the Tang Dynasty is still in danger at this time, not only to pacify the traitors in Hebei but also to bring peace to the world.

Today, Yan Zhuang, who went to Hebei to cooperate with Yan Zhenqing to collect the displaced people, came back, and as a high-ranking official who went to the former enemy, he reported to Qin Jin the first-hand information he had seen.

Yan Zhenqing is indeed a capable official with the talent to govern the world, but Yan Zhuang does not recommend reusing this person, but should transfer him to a less important state and county to serve as a taishou.

Now, the world is a little fixed, and it will make people unstable if they are rewarded for their merits, and in the face of Qin Jin's questioning, Yan Zhuang has his own opinion.

"This person is loyal to Li Tang, if the doctor wants to go further, he is afraid of ......"

The words don't need to be said thoroughly, Qin Jin already understands. However, Qin Jin laughed out loud.

"This person should be used, he should be of great use, the world is in chaos, and all kinds of waste are waiting to be revived, it's not the time to think about those things!"

Yan Zhuang once again said:

"The doctor now supports the restoration of the two capitals, pacifies the reinvention of the two thieves of Anshi, and restores the old system of the former Han Dynasty, with the respect of the prime minister, opens the government and establishes subordinate officials!"

This suggestion made Qin Jin quite moved, in the past, he did not want to be promoted, because the world has not yet been peaceful, and any opposition may have an immeasurable impact on the peace. And now that the chaos is calm, the Shenwu Army can free up their hands to do anything, and naturally they are not afraid of possible rebellions.

"This matter will be discussed with several prime ministers in the political affairs hall!"

At that time, the so-called prime minister was no longer the same as the prime minister of the Qin and Han dynasties. Today's prime ministers are all appointed as governors of the three provinces, and do not have the power to open a government and establish subordinate officials. Therefore, the prime minister of this world is only the executor of the will of the Son of Heaven. And the prime minister who can open a government and set up a subordinate official not only has the right to implement, but also has the right to make decisions. Generally speaking, once the government is opened, it is tantamount to setting up a separate court outside the imperial court, and over time, the strong are stronger, and the weak are weaker, and the power is justifiably grabbed, which is the most subtle way.

It is precisely because of the excessive power of the prime minister that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty emptied the prime minister in this way and deprived the prime minister of his decision-making power. It was not until the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, when Cao Cao was in power, that the old system of prime ministers was briefly restored.

Since then, there has been no prime minister who opened the government and built the government.

Six years ago, when Qin Jin first came to this world, he never thought that he would one day become such an ambitious character, but the times dictated, and there seemed to be a pair of hands pushing him, constantly running forward step by step.

The matter of restoring the old system of prime ministers of the Qin and Han dynasties cannot be proposed by Qin and Jin, nor can it be proposed only by Yan Zhuang, it must be collectively written by hundreds of civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, and the Son of Heaven will approve it, and then Qin and Jin will be considered successful after performing three resignations and three concessions.

In this matter, Fifth Qi coincides with Yan Zhuang. Yan Zhuang's influence in the imperial court was very limited, while the extremely powerful Fifth Qi was completely different. Several years of his career as prime minister have allowed him to establish considerable prestige in both the government and the opposition.

As soon as he brought it up, a group of officials immediately followed.

More than half of the officials of the six ministries of the three provinces echoed the letter, asking the Son of Heaven to restore the old system of prime ministers, and to lead the prime minister with Qin Jin, the imperial historian, to open a government and build a government office, and to oversee the state government.

As a result, the limelight of the traitors who originally pacified Anshi was faintly overshadowed by the call for the restoration of the old system of prime ministers.

However, among them, there is one person with a very ambiguous attitude, and that is Wei Jiansu.

Wei Jiansu has been cooperating with Qin Jin with tacit understanding since he re-entered the political hall, but he has not been able to express his position on this matter.

Fifth Qi's view is more realistic, because the official rank of Qin and Jin does not match the actual power, and there will inevitably be some details of power that are difficult to control, just as the so-called name is not right. This also lays the foundation for possible trouble.

Now that he has seen the problems in it, the Fifth Qi is of course more inclined to solve these problems as soon as possible, then, by pushing Qin Jin to a position above ten thousand people under one person, the above problems can be easily solved.

In this era when Confucianism and Taoism do not have an absolute advantage, there are not many people who have died for the Li Tang clan. More people see the interests of the family and their own interests.

For example, several major families in Hedong and Hebei are closely integrated with the Shenwu Army. In their eyes, the Li Tang clan is nothing more than that.

In the midst of a call for the restoration of the old system of prime ministers, Wei Jiansu put forward a proposal to change the yuan.

In fact, the matter of changing the yuan had already been discussed at the beginning of the year, and even the year name had been determined, but the war was tense at that time, so it was postponed again and again.

Now, Wei Jiansu brought it up again, and Qin Jin also felt that it was the right time, so he turned out the era name set a few months ago and asked it to be handed over to the Son of Heaven for review.

Li Heng, who was still paralyzed on the couch by the Son of Heaven, originally thought that after he had gone through the toss from Chang'an to Lingwu, his body was extremely weak and he would not live long. But after a winter of raising, now his face is full of red light, and even his energy is many times more than before.

On the contrary, this succeeded the wishes of several important ministers, and the discussion of the former Zen prince disappeared.

What could be more pleasing to a courtier with great power than a paralyzed Son of Heaven sitting on the throne?

Taiping rejuvenates the country!

A thriving era name, Li Heng was also very satisfied with this era name, so he hurriedly announced that he would change the Yuan Taiping and rejuvenate the country that year.

In July of the first year of the Taiping Rejuvenation of the Kingdom, the Hebei rebels were completely annihilated, and the puppet emperor Shi Chaoqing and Shi Chaoyi were both tied up in Chang'an and taken prisoner, the only pity was that Shi Siming was nowhere to be found in the war. The Khitans who took the opportunity to go south, after arriving at Yuguan, were completely blocked out of the pass by the Shenwu army led by Lu Qi, completely cutting off the idea of the Khitans planning to get a piece of the pie.

This year is destined to be a year of joy and event. Quell the rebellion, celebrate the whole country, and restore the old system of prime ministers......

Many things are one by one, rewarding meritorious deeds, being knighted and promoted, Chang'an City has been celebrating for two months just like the New Year.

On this day, in addition to restoring the post of Jing Zhaoyin, Yan Zhuang was also entrusted with the head of the Prime Minister's Office. In the Han Dynasty, this was a two-thousand-stone high-ranking official with a rank comparable to Jiuqing, although his status was slightly lower, but his power was eye-catching.

Many of the government affairs of the government hall were gradually transferred to the Prime Minister's Mansion in batches, and in this regard, Fifth Qi and Wei Jiansu gave considerable cooperation. As a matter of fact, since the restoration of the old system of the Prime Minister's Office, the system of three provinces and six ministries, which has been prevalent for more than 100 years, has been affected to a certain extent.

As the so-called new year, the new atmosphere, despite the frequent changes in the system, but the Manchu dynasty is still full of vitality, in the eyes of the vast majority of officials, these tosses are a complete break with the past Chen Mi and unbearable.

The Tang Dynasty, with its great martial arts, will not be completely collapsed because of a rebellion.

Recuperation is the first national policy proposed after the restoration of the old system of prime ministers, and before that, there is still several heavy work to prepare. Measuring the fields and clarifying the population is the top priority.

Population and land were the basis of taxation, and if these data were not mastered, the weakening of the imperial court's ability to control the localities would continue. At the time of the war, there was no way, but now that there is no war, many of the cheap rights handed over to the local states and counties in wartime will have to be taken back.

And the only one who is qualified for this assignment is no second person except the fifth Qi.

Just when everything was going on in an orderly manner, Xia Yuanji asked Zhishi on the grounds of old age and decay, and the Son of Heaven kept him three times, and Xia Yuanji insisted three times.

In the end, the imperial court accepted Xia Yuanji's resignation and was promoted to Taishi and crowned the title of Duke of the Kingdom.

Xia Yuanji's resignation also attracted Wei Jiansu to follow suit, and the above table asked Zhishi to return to his hometown.

However, this time, the Son of Heaven said that nothing would be allowed.

Xia Yuanji's Zhishi is indeed too old and his body is no longer able to support cumbersome government affairs, and another reason is that he expresses his support for the restoration of the old system of prime ministers. As the Zhongshu Order, he is the head of the Prime Minister of the Political Affairs Hall, so it is naturally impossible for him to be a subordinate official of the Prime Minister's Mansion, but he can still give up the power in his hands.

His knowledge of current affairs has also been rewarded quite handsomely. In addition to his personal honors, his three sons were all honored and entered the Prime Minister's Mansion.

And the reason why Qin Jin did not agree to Wei Jiansu and Xia Yuanji resigning together was because the transfer of power required a process, and it could not be completed in a day or two. In particular, a change in the system may not be completely completed in one or two years.

What's more, Wei Jiansu is in good health, has great energy, and is a capable official, and the significance of staying in the court is far greater than returning to his hometown.

In the eyes of hundreds of officials, Qin Jin is a low-key and iron-fisted person. In the eyes of his family, Qin Jin is like a tireless ox plowing the land, and he has to send people to urge him repeatedly every day before he can return home to eat a bite of food and sleep for a while.

And on this day, he entered the house before sunset. Because, his sister-in-law was born!
