Chapter 125: The Battle Before the Battle
As everyone talked, time slowly passed, and the sky gradually became clear.
At this time, a eunuch wearing a maroon robe walked outside the palace and preached to everyone: "Ladies and gentlemen, Your Majesty declares you to enter the palace!"
"I'll wait for this to go in, Grandpa Xu has worked hard. ”
The officials responded and greeted the eunuchs one after another.
Gonggong Xu is only in his early twenties, and when Qin Xiao was in the position of the crown prince, he was the prince servant of Xianling Palace, because there were still several elders in the clan who served in the court, and they were spared, and they have been imprisoned in the prison by Ba Linglong's mother and son.
Now that he has been rescued, he has been ordered by the Zhongshu Confessor, and it turns out that the people of Xianling Palace have been killed again, and they don't want to know that they will definitely be the big celebrities in front of Qin Xiao in the future.
The hundred officials sorted out their clothes and entered the hall, and under the leadership of the old prime minister and the old captain, they lined up on both sides with wat boards, and the hall was silent.
After a while, Qin Xiao wore a yellow dragon robe and a crown of twelve crowns, and walked out from behind the screen behind the dragon chair.
During the walk, a noble aura like a dragon and a phoenix was naturally revealed, and the emperor's power was dark, and he was not angry and self-assured.
"Long live the king, long live, long live!"
When Qin Xiao sat down on the dragon chair, the ministers leaned over to him with all their hands on the wat board.
Qin Xiao smiled and raised his hand and said, "Zhongqing is flat." ”
During the reign of the crown prince, he went to court no less than 100 times, and he summoned the emperors countless times in his previous life, so he naturally knew what kind of prestige he should maintain.
After the ministers were calm, Qin Xiao asked, "I wonder what you have to do today?"
"Your Majesty, the old minister has something to play. ”
At this time, the old lady walked to the bottom of the jade steps with the wat board in his arms and said loudly to Qin Xiao.
Qin Xiao said with a smile: "The old lady is flat, I know what to do." ”
The old lady said solemnly: "Your Majesty, Bajiuzhou has reached Jiaoyuan City, and the old minister is willing to lead 10,000 troops, and gather the county soldiers along the way to fight to the death!"
The old lady's understanding of the military situation is naturally not comparable to that of ordinary officials, not only the three counties in southern Xinjiang, but also several counties north of Jiaoyuan City have the intention of surrendering to the enemy, and if they do not send troops, the court will have no troops available.
Qin Xiao said in a calm tone: "The old lady doesn't need to be anxious, this matter is up to the king." ”
"Now the situation is critical, if you don't send troops to dominate Jiuzhou, you will soon have troops under the city, Your Majesty think twice!"
Seeing that Qin Xiao rejected the request to send troops, the old lady said urgently, hoping that Qin Xiao would take back his life.
Qin Xiao's face was slightly cold, and he said undoubtedly: "This king's holy will has been decided, the old lady doesn't need to say much, step down!"
Once the war with Ba Jiuyuan starts, the war will not end in a moment and a half, it is the ordinary people of the counties who suffer, and it is the national fortune of Wu Ling who will suffer, how can he do this.
Waiting for the old lady to retreat, Qin Xiao said in a calm tone: "Which other adult wants to play?"
No one in the hundreds of officials made a sound, and even the old lady's request was rejected by Qin Xiao, what did they say was useful?
At this time, the old prime minister put away the wat board, walked to the bottom of the jade steps with a piece of music in both hands, and said to Qin Xiao: "Your Majesty, the old minister has a guest named Peng Chong, he proposed a set of plans to the old minister to select talents, and after the old minister discussed with Lord Yelu and others, he felt that it was available, and wanted to ask His Majesty to look at it. ”
"Peng Chong? ”
Qin Xiao thought about it, had no impression of this person, and said to Xu Gonggong, who was waiting in the left inner side of the jade steps: "Gonggong Xu, present the excerpt to this king." ”
"No!"
Gonggong Xu promised in a thin voice, took the fold from the old prime minister's hand, walked up the jade steps and handed it to Qin Xiao.
"Nine Qualities Selection Method. ”
Qin Xiao quickly browsed it and said to the old prime minister: "This method is feasible, let's fill the vacant official Cao as soon as possible according to this method." ”
The Nine Grades of Virtuous Selection Law corresponds to the martial arts official system to divide the talents of the opposition into nine grades, and has formulated a detailed and feasible plan to identify the grades of the talents.
"Old minister, thank Your Majesty for your permission!"
The old prime minister thanked him and returned to the first place on his left hand.
Qin Xiao thought for a while, and said to the old prime minister: "This Peng Chong is a talent, this king thinks that he can be the imperial Shi Cheng, what do the old prime minister, Lord Yelu, and all the adults think?"
Yelu Chu was demoted by one level, and now he is the imperial historian, and the imperial historian appointed by General Peng Chong is his subordinate official, so Qin Xiao specially named his name and asked for his opinion.
The old prime minister said: "Available!"
"Available!"
"Available!"
Yelu Chu and others also agreed.
Everyone naturally understands that since the old prime minister deliberately pointed out that the Nine Grades of Virtue Selection Method was created by Peng Chong, Qin Xiao proposed that Peng Chong be appointed as the imperial historian just to push the boat along the river, how could he be bored and make Qin Xiao and the old prime minister unhappy.
At this time, Qin Xiao asked the hundred officials again: "What else do the adults have to discuss?"
"The minister has nothing to do. ”
The hundred officials exchanged opinions and said to Qin Xiao.
"I have another decision that I would like to inform you. ”
Qin Xiao said with a smile: "The adults are working hard for the martial spirits, and they are very hard, I think that the current Fenglu is too low, and I want to promote Fenglu, I don't know what the adults think?"
"Your Majesty's compassion for your ministers is a blessing for your ministers, and your ministers support you to the fullest. ”
The old prime minister said immediately.
"Your Majesty Shengming!"
The officials immediately seconded.
Wu Ling's Fenglu is indeed low, and when Qin Xiao finally waits for them to add Fenglu, he naturally can't ask for it.
"That's good. ”
Qin Xiao said with a smile: "From this month onwards, all the lower three rank officials will be increased by five times, and the middle three grades will be issued according to the standards of the True Martial Guards and the Battle Spirit Palace, respectively, and those who swear allegiance to the Martial Spirit can also get corresponding rewards." ”
"Five-fold increase!"
"Issued according to the standards of the True Martial Guards and the Battle Spirit Palace!"
"Blood oath of allegiance, you can also get rewards for exercises and martial arts!"
Qin Xiao's words, even if there were thunderbolts, the officials were dumbfounded.
This kind of Fenglu has already surpassed the third-order realm, and they never dreamed of it.
The old prime minister, the old lady and others hurriedly admonished: "Your Majesty, this matter must not be allowed!"
Now that the treasury has been robbed, Wuling is the time when the financial resources are empty, the number of officials in Wuling is not a small number, just the officials above the middle and third grades, dozens of times more than the Zhan Ling Hall and the True Martial Guard, all of a sudden Fenglu will be promoted so much, even if Qin Xiao's private property is the most, how long can it be supported?
Originally, Qin Xiao had already informed the old prime minister and others about the promotion of Fenglu, but he didn't say anything in detail, so the old prime minister didn't object just now, and now that he knows the number, he naturally can't let him do it like this.
"Yes, Your Majesty think twice!"
Those who can go to the top of the Taiyuan Palace, how can there be ignorant people, and then the officials also admonished.
Although they want to add Fenglu, don't they know that it will not last long to fish with all their might? No one will affect King Wuling Yi to change his surname for a small profit.
