The little ÷ said ◎ Net], the ♂ little ÷ said ◎ Net],

It's getting dark.

The cold winter has passed, and the weather is gradually becoming less cold.

The shores of Dongting Lake are lush and lush.

Qi Yue and the others hung their heads and followed Qi Wulie out of Bauhinia Villa. The tents of the Great Song soldiers disappeared, and Wen Qi, Zhao Da, and Zhao Hu had already assembled their troops.

Tens of thousands of soldiers stood outside the Bauhinia Villa, and in such a weather, even if it was Qi Wulie, his eyes had a slight change.

This is the army, and the strength is really not comparable to their martial arts holy lands.

Zhao Da grinned, walked up to Qi Yue, who had met him, and said with a smile: "Young Master Qi, please!" ”

Qi Yue looked at Qi Wulie to the side.

Qi Wulie just nodded lightly and did not speak again.

He didn't have a choice. If Qi Yue and others are not allowed to enter the palace as hostages, not to mention the tens of thousands of imperial court soldiers, just empty for thousands of years, they will have the strength to destroy his Bauhinia Villa.

Qi Yue and the others walked towards the army.

Zhao Da and Zhao Hu sat on their horses and waved their hands and shouted: "Go!" ”

Then the two galloped to the back of the army formation and headed towards Changsha with the five thousand flying dragon army.

The empty eternal leisurely followed behind the army. It doesn't seem to be going fast, but the speed is still not slow.

Wen Qi said to Qi Wulie: "Master Qi, I have offended. ”

Then, he also departed with his 5,000 Changde garrison soldiers.

The outside of Bauhinia Villa was empty.

Qi Wulie looked at the magnificent Dongting Lake not far in front of him, and was stunned.

On this day, Bauhinia Villa released the news that Six Fingers had been captured and Ziqigong had been recaptured. It won't be long before the rivers and lakes will be calm again.

When Zhao Da and Zhao Hu returned to Changsha with Qi Yue and others, Zhao Dongting finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The turmoil in the rivers and lakes has finally been strangled in the cradle.

He was very glad that Liuzhi'er saved Tie Liduan, otherwise, if Tie Liduan died, he might have sent more Wudingtang to worship him out of the palace. In this case, Wu Dingtang is afraid that he will suffer heavy losses. Bauhinia Villa has such strength. Unless, he directly sent the empty eternal out of the palace.

After Rangle arranged for Qi Yue and others to live in Wudingtang free of charge, Zhao Dongting issued an order to announce that Lu Xiufu, Chen Jianghan, Su Liuyi and other officials of the Ministry of State Affairs, the Ministry of Military Aircraft and various ministries entered the palace.

It's almost time for the new imperial examination. This also means that Zhao Dongting's assessment of the last Jinshi can come to an end.

In the past year, many clues can also be seen whether these people are really talented and learned, and whether they can really adapt to officialdom.

Not long after, Lu Xiufu and others appeared outside the main hall and rushed into the main hall.

Chen Wenlong, who was originally going to return to his hometown, was also in the crowd.

He probably heard Xie Daoqing's words, so he gave up the idea of continuing to say goodbye. Yes, everything should be based on the country's social welfare.

After entering the hall, the ministers gave Zhao Dongting a salute, and then stood in order.

The two rows on the left are headed by Lu Xiufu, the state minister, and Zhang Shijie, the supervision order. Secondly, it is Chen Wenlong, the deputy state minister, Chen Jianghan, the secretary of the Ministry of Finance, Gao Manshan, the secretary of the Ministry of Social Security, Xie Fangde, Xi Zhili, Sun Shichuan and others.

The two rows on the right are led by Su Liuyi, the deputy military aircraft commander, Hao Wenxiu, the deputy criminal order, followed by Zhang Xizai, the secretary of the military department, and others.

The combination of the four provinces is the foundation of the Great Song Dynasty.

Last year, a total of 147 people were examined, and Confucian generals, fierce generals, and Wenju Jinshi were all appointed as officials in the four provinces.

Those Confucian generals and fierce generals who were sent to the army, Zhao Dongting had already given Wen Tianxiang, Zhang Jue and others the greatest rights, and let them be promoted and trade-off.

As for the Jinshi who stayed in the Ministry of War and the three provinces of supervision, law, and state affairs, Zhao Dongting had to personally interrogate.

Now that the Great Song Dynasty is at the beginning of stability, as the emperor, his main task is no longer to lead the army to the front line to fight, but how to maintain stability in the rear.

As soon as everyone stood up, Zhao Dongting looked at Lu Xiufu and asked, "Lord Lu, how are the sixty-four Jinshi who were assigned to the Ministry of State last year?" ”

The Ministry of State has the most complicated affairs and the largest number of official positions. Last year, most of them were in the Ministry of State.

For example, Zhong Jian, who is currently the deputy director of the Shaozhou Department of Agriculture, and Mao Hao, the deputy director of the Chenzhou Water Conservancy Department, and others. The departments in which they work are all under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of State.

"Back to the emperor."

Hearing Zhao Dongting's words, Lu Xiufu immediately walked out of the ranks and arched his hand: "The old minister has asked the chief officials of each ministry to register in detail the measures and achievements of the Jinshi after they took office this year. After our deliberation and evaluation, there are 14 people who can be evaluated and 32 people who are good. In addition, there are still nine people whose political achievements are not outstanding and have not done much. ”

As he spoke, he took out the fold from his sleeve robe, "This is the roster of the old minister's statistics, and I invite the emperor to take a look." ”

Gonggong Li walked down the hall, took the roster from Lu Xiufu, and handed it to Zhao Dongting.

Zhao Dongting spread out the roster in his hand and looked down. For a long time, there was no speech.

He was really looking closely.

These jinshi are all talents selected after he reformed the education system, and they will certainly be the pillars of the DPRK and the Central Committee in the future. This is not negligent.

At the top of the roster, Zhong Jian's name appeared.

Although Zhong Jian was an official at the Shaozhou Agricultural Department last year, although he was not the chief official, he put forward many agricultural policies, vigorously developed Shaozhou's agriculture, and encouraged the people in Shaozhou to set up many cooperatives to plant those new crops that were brought back from the Americas and other places, and achieved quite good results. Last year, Shaozhou not only remained self-sufficient, but also exported many crops to neighboring states and provinces. Even the furthest ones have been sold to the Yue Li Dynasty.

His performance evaluation is naturally excellent.

But Zhao Dongting's face didn't necessarily change.

He just kept looking.

It wasn't until more than ten minutes had passed that he closed the roster and looked up at His Highness and the ministers again.

At this time, a slight smile finally appeared on the corner of his mouth.

These new talents who have undergone educational reform and specialized in various professional knowledge have indeed performed well. Many of their ideas were not something that those old ministers could have imagined before.

Their performance made Zhao Dongting see the vigorous vitality.

As long as they can persist in this way, the national strength of the Great Song Dynasty can continue to develop at such a rapid pace.

As for those in the middle who performed mediocre, Zhao Dongting did not feel any dissatisfaction because of this.

Being an official is not only enough to be talented and learned, but also needs courage and social talent. Most people can perform well, and Zhao Dongting is already satisfied.

It's just that there is something else that makes him wonder.

He asked Lu Xiufu: "There are fifty-five excellent, good, and poor people, but what about nine others?" ”

Lu Xiufu's face was a little embarrassed, "After these nine people took office, they were unable to control it, they were corrupt and bent the law, and they have been supervised by the provincial government...... Taken. ”

Zhao Dongting was slightly stunned.

He hadn't thought of that.

Then the smile on his face faded.

Nine of the 64 were arrested for corruption, and perhaps some of them went undetected. This proportion is not small.

But I feel helpless.

There are many people who are officials who come to make money.

At that time, when he defeated the Yuan army and attacked the city and seized the land, he also saw those corrupt officials who were mad.

After a moment of silence, Zhao Dongting looked at Zhang Shijie and Hao Wenxiu, and said, "Those who bend the law for bribes will be dealt with strictly!" ”

He didn't want the Great Song Dynasty to start rotting from his bones before it was fully prosperous. In that way, even if the Great Song Dynasty is strong in the future, it will definitely not be able to last.

"Command!"

Zhang Shijie and Hao Wenxiu gave up at the same time.

Later, Zhao Dongting looked at the rosters of the Supervision Province, the Law Department, and the Military Department with a special location.

Naturally, there are people who are good and people who are mediocre.

In the same way, there are those who use power for personal gain.

Officialdom is a big dye vat, and there will always be people who can't resist the temptation. Zhao Dongting's treatment of officials is already excellent, but no matter how good the treatment is, it is obviously difficult to fill the desires of these people.

Zhao Dongting didn't delve into these things. If every corrupt official was interrogating, then he, the emperor, would not have to do anything else.

After all the rosters were read, he just said: "Those who perform well are promoted to regular positions, and those who are good will continue to observe in their original positions." Poor ...... Dismissal......"

The last few words made Lu Hideo and others change color slightly.

Lu Xiufu hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, will you directly dismiss the official...... Handled a little too much? ”

After all, these jinshi are all talented people who have been selected from all over the world to be admitted to the jinshi.

Zhao Dongting shook his head, "Being an official and a mediocre person is equivalent to eating the country's food and salary and not doing things, what is the difference between a soldier sleeping in the camp all day long?" I don't need such officials! ”

He knew that at this time, he needed the determination of a strong man to break his wrist. If there is too much indecision, it will only get harder and harder to clean up these people in the future.

If it weren't for the fact that most of those officials in the past were old ministers, and they were loyal to the Great Song Dynasty, and many of them were close to retirement age, Zhao Dongting would even have to include them in such a strict assessment.
