In the afternoon, Zhao Dongting did not go to the workshop of the Ministry of Military Science, but went to the imperial study.

The ministry presented Li Prosperity's resume.

Xiangxing has been a jinshi for ten years, and the political department ranks eighth. In the same year, he was appointed as the county magistrate of Cenxi County, Tengzhou, Guangnan West Road.

In the eleventh year of Xiangxing's political review, the Ministry of Officials rated it as an honest official and abided by his own responsibilities, but he was more than successful and enterprising was slightly insufficient.

In the 12 years of political review in Xiangxing, the Ministry of Officials also commented that he knew people and made good use of them, was diligent in government and loved the people, and greatly improved in the deficiencies. But wait for its results, and have been promoted.

It was only at this time that Zhao Dongting learned that the Ministry of Officials also had plans to promote Li Prosperity.

However, even if the officials are promoted, they must be step-by-step. With Li Prosperity's qualifications, it is most likely that he will be promoted from the county order to the adjutant of the state capital.

After reading the resume, Zhao Dongting only said to the officials who came to present their resumes: "Spread my will, and the Ministry of Officials promoted Li Rongfang to the rank of Servant of the Ministry of Officials." ”

"Huh?"

It was just an official of the director of the Ministry of Officials' Examination and Merit, and he couldn't help but be stunned.

As the department in charge of the evaluation, appointment and dismissal, transfer, and promotion of officials throughout the country, the Ministry of Officials is really an important department with extremely heavy real power.

He never thought that the emperor would directly promote this district and county order to the servant of the ministry.

The county order is only eight grades, and the servant of the ministry is a real third-grade member in today's Great Song Dynasty.

He, the director of the department, is just a fourth-grade official.

Zhao Dongting frowned slightly, and said, "Could it be that you have any objections?" ”

But where did the director of the examination department dare to say anything, and said: "Weichen doesn't dare." ”

Only then said: "Lord Huang, the former servant of the Ministry of Officials, ......"

Since the political reform of Zhao Dongting, except for a few departments, most of the departments of the Great Song Dynasty have set up one Shangshu and one Shilang. Although the Ministry of Officials is an important yamen, there was only one squire before.

The secretary of the ministry is in charge of the affairs of the ministry, and the squire is the assistant of the secretary of the ministry and has the responsibility of supervising the secretary.

Today's officials and servants have not yet reached the age of retirement.

When the director of the examination department heard Zhao Dongting say that Li Rongxing would be promoted to the rank of servant of the Ministry of Officials, he naturally thought about where the former servant of the Ministry of Officials should be transferred.

Immediately, I only heard Zhao Dongting say: "Lord Huang plans to be the secretary of the Ministry of Military Science, and he will not send it for the time being." ”

Xu Yuesong, the secretary of the Ministry of Military Science and Technology, has just turned 60 this year and has reached the age of relegating to the second line. He had to find someone to take his place.

Although the Ministry of Military Science and Technology is a department that develops weapons and is quite professional, Shangshu only coordinates the affairs of the ministry and does not need to do research in person. Therefore, there is nothing wrong with letting the former officials serve the man.

Those who have worked as squires in the ministry always know how to lead their subordinates better than ordinary officials.

"Weichen takes the order!"

Hearing what Zhao Dongting said, the director of the examination department hurriedly agreed, then retired and walked towards the outside of the imperial study.

In addition to envy in his heart, he was also thinking about whether to let Huang Shilang invite him to have a drink.

Shangshu and Shilang seem to be the chief and aide-de-camp, but their status in the court is completely different. If you can become a scholar, you can really enter the center of the imperial court.

"Dog."

As soon as the director of the Gong Examination Division left, Zhao Dongting turned his head to look at Li Goudan again, and said, "Go and announce Zhong Jian, Mao Hao, and Zhao Zhuan." ”

In mid-March, he ordered Xuan Zhongjian and others to enter the palace, and then went to Haojing Island. Now that he has returned, Zhong Jian and the others have also arrived in Changsha City.

Li Goudan hurriedly agreed to the side and ran out of the house.

After a short time, Zhong Jian, Mao Hao, Zhao and Luo came to the imperial study.

"Knock on the emperor, long live the emperor, long live long live!"

As soon as he entered the imperial study, he saluted Zhao Dongting.

"Excuse me, excuse me."

Zhao Dongting waved his hand with a smile on his face, and asked Li Goudan to give him a seat.

Now Zhong Jian and Mao Hao look different from before, they have been officials for several years, and their official authority is not shallow.

Zhong Jian, who is the director of the Department of Agriculture on Dali Road, is much more mature.

As soon as he sat down, Zhao Youluo couldn't help but ask: "I don't know if the emperor's generals and ministers are coming to the imperial city......

He was the first to arrive in Changsha, and by now, he had been waiting for Zhao Dongting for a long time.

Only yesterday I heard that Zhao Dongting had just returned to the palace, and he was worried about disturbing Zhao Dongting's rest, so he didn't come to ask to see him.

Zhao Dongting still smiled kindly, and only asked, "I don't know what Zhao Aiqing thinks of the Ministry of Supervision?" ”

Zhao Youluo was mistaken, and said slightly: "Your Majesty, could it be that someone has visited the ministers in front of you?" ”

"No, no."

Zhao Dongting smiled and waved his hand: "Zhao Aiqing has thought about it a lot, you just need to tell me what you think of the Ministry of Supervision." ”

Today, the Ministry of Supervision has been perfected, and there are supervision yamen in various places. Not to mention that he knows all about the officials, but he also has a fairly complete supervision.

Zhao and Luo are royal relatives, and they were promoted by Zhao Dongting, and the political trials over the years have been extremely good. No one will join him for no reason.

Speaking of which, the Imperial History Observatory of the Great Song Dynasty is now more like the supervision yamen of the Ministry of Supervision. The officials of the various ministries of the DPRK and the Central Committee were watched by the Ministry of Supervision, and the doctors of the Qingliu Dynasty were staring at the Ministry of Supervision.

Zhao Youluo listened to Zhao Dongting say this, and breathed a relaxed breath.

Although he is not afraid of shadows, it is difficult to say about the affairs of the court. If someone really wants to participate in him, it will be a troublesome thing.

It's okay if the emperor doesn't believe it, if the emperor believes it, then it's really mud stuck in the crotch of his pants, and it's not but.

After organizing his words a little, Zhao Youluo replied: "The minister thinks that the Ministry of Supervision is really the sharp blade of my Great Song Dynasty court, and it is the knife that keeps my officialdom clear. Although the Ministry of Supervision is not treated well by local officials. But its role is irreplaceable. The officials in his ministry are also the most upright people in our Song Dynasty officialdom, which is admired by the ministers. ”

His words sounded good at first, but when you think about it, it also means something else.

Officials of the Ministry of Supervision exercise the duty of supervision, and their authority is not small, but they are really not subject to human price. In particular, those officials who have problems themselves are even more afraid and hateful of them.

And he said that the officials of the Ministry of Supervision are all honest people, and what he wants to say is that I am afraid that the officials of the Ministry of Supervision should all be honest people.

Zhao Dongting smiled lightly, and only asked again: "Then Uncle Huang, are you willing to serve as a supervisor in the Ministry of Supervision?" ”

Zhao Youluo was stunned for a moment.

As a transit envoy of Kuizhou Road, he is already a feudal official. But there is, of course, a big gap between this position and the Supervisory Order.

The Great Song Dynasty also has a total of four ministries of state affairs, military discipline, supervision, and law, and the duties of supervision orders are completely equivalent to the positions of the previous three princes, and they are real extremely ministers.

And Zhao Dongting suddenly changed his words to call him "Uncle Huang", which also made him hear some extraneous voices.

The Ministry of Supervision is the yamen of supervising hundreds of officials, and it is extremely important, and the emperor is not worried about handing it over to others, so he wants to transfer him, the imperial uncle, to the Ministry of Supervision.

This is undoubtedly a great trust.

Zhao Youluo was inevitably moved in his heart.

Originally, he was probably reluctant to serve in an unpopular yamen like the Ministry of Supervision, but at this moment, he did not hesitate and said, "The minister obeys the order." ”

When he entered the Ministry of Supervision, he was not welcomed. If you don't enter the Ministry of Supervision, you will live up to the emperor's trust.

Zhao and Luo, the royal family loyal to the Great Song Dynasty, did not surprise Zhao Dongting to choose the former.

Seeing that Zhao and Luo agreed, Zhao Dongting just smiled again and nodded lightly.

Then he looked at Zhong Jian again and asked, "Zhong Aiqing, if I want you to serve in the military department, are you willing?" ”

Zhong Jian groaned slightly when he heard this, "Your Majesty, the minister...... It has always been the Ministry of Agriculture, the Ministry of War, and the Minister ......"

"Huh!"

Zhao Dongting waved his hand and said: "The national military salary and military rations of the Ministry of War also have a lot to do with agriculture!" Could it be that you are from the Ministry of Agriculture, so you plan to always serve in the Ministry of Agriculture? ”

When Zhong Jian heard him say this, he didn't want to say anything, and he also arched his hand and said, "The emperor has taught him a lesson." ”

"It's not a lesson."

Zhao Dongting smiled and said, "I'm just saying my opinion. Well, since you agree, then you are ready to serve in the Ministry of War, I will first appoint you as the representative secretary of the Ministry of War, let Zhang Shangshu teach you for a while, and after you are familiar with the affairs of the Ministry of War, I will hand over the Ministry of War to you. ”

"Yes."

Zhong Jian agreed again.

In the end, Zhao Dongting looked at Mao Hao.

Of course, Mao Hori is also an extremely rare talent, just because Zhong Jian is too good in the same session, so he is not so eye-catching in the court.

Zhao Dongting looked at him with a smile and said, "Is Mao Qing's family also willing to serve in the Ministry of Supervision?" ”

For example, the resumes of outstanding Jinshi such as Mao Hori and Zhong Jian, he has seen them every year.

Although Mao Hao's achievements in water conservancy are not as good as Zhong Jian's achievements in agriculture, he is a rare and extremely calm young cadre.
