After the beginning of the tenth year of the Republic (936), Li Qi first crowned his four brothers.

Li Ji?? As the king of Han, he was transferred to Luodu to stay behind; Li Jisong was the king of Shu and was transferred to Qinzhou Longxi Jiedu envoy; Li Jiliang is the king of Lu, and he is the envoy of the middle section of the river; Li Jijiao was the king of Zheng, and he was the envoy of the Zhaoyi Festival. However, the most important kings of Jin, Qin and Qi were not sealed, and it seemed that they were ready to leave them to their heirs.

Subsequently, the envoys of the various military towns also carried out a major exchange: Wu Luan, the envoy of Shanbei Town, was transferred to Xu Si Jiedu, and he was reappointed as the envoy of Shanbei Town; Wuyuan town guard Gao Congzhou was transferred from Zhou to Songzhou to guide the festival envoy, and Yang Chengxun was reappointed as Wuyuan town guard; Shuofang Jiedu made An Xianhui transferred to Tanzhou Wu'an Jiedu Envoy, Gao Yuntao was reappointed as Shuofang Jiedu Envoy, and Xingzhou Assassin Shi Kuangyi took over as Yanzhou Baoda Jiedu Envoy; Li Congke stayed behind for Bianliang, Fu Yanqing was reappointed as the envoy of Yunnei Town, Song Tinghao was transferred from Yunnei to Hengyang Town, Zhang Chengting of Shuozhou Thorn Shi was appointed as the envoy of Hexi Jiedu, and Kang Jiu was reappointed as the envoy of Qingtang Town.

There is also a note from the Privy Council attached to the rotation of the military town adjustment and rotation, which means that the rotation of the military envoys and town guards in each border town is a regular practice, and a major adjustment will be made every five years in the future.

Anyway, Li Qi didn't plan to fight any big battles in the past two years, so he planned to straighten out the internal personnel adjustment.

Spring is in full bloom, and Li Qi also left Jinyang and started this year's inspection.

This year's plan is not to go to the Northland grasslands, but to tour the south.

The first stop was set in Luoyang.

Under the condition that the northland grassland has been basically stabilized, Luoyang, the capital of the capital, has been put on the agenda.

Geographically speaking, Jinyang is indeed a little northerly, and it is not as easy as Luoyang to connect with the Quartet.

However, the biggest drawback of Luoyang is that there are many wealthy families, and the cultivated land is basically divided up by those wealthy families.

Relatively speaking, Li Qi prefers Youzhou.

But as far as the current territorial boundaries of the Tang Dynasty are concerned, Youzhou is even more remote than Jinyang.

Standing at the head of Luoyang City, listening to the entourage of officials discussing how to renovate and strengthen the Luoyang city wall, Li Qi suddenly turned his head and stayed behind Li Ji to the new Luodu. said: "Tear down the city wall of Luoyang, and only leave a few city gates as a memorial." You remember what I taught you how to plan your city, right? ”

Except on formal occasions, Li Qi claimed that he used me, not me, and the people under him were already used to it.

"Your Majesty, don't do it, this city wall has been demolished, what if something happens to the Jingshi!" Shangshu Zuo Cheng Feng Dao, who stayed in Luodu, hurriedly dissuaded him after hearing this.

"Hehe, you should let the enemy fight down the Jingshi City, can this city wall be able to hold it? This peace and security of the country and the people cannot be achieved by hiding in the city and not seeing it. Li Qi said with a smile, in fact, if there is no city wall, the court will pay more attention to peacetime security and the country's army building.

If these people keep hiding inside the city walls, their horizons will always be limited.

"After the city walls are demolished, will the entire street have to be replanned and rebuilt?" Li Ji?? Asked.

"It's natural, but there's no need to rush, fix a few main roads first, and then slowly renovate them." Li Qi said, "In a hundred years, this road can't be narrowed. ”

"Brother Huang, does it also include the drainage system?"

"Of course, when building roads, you must also do a good job in the city's drainage system, oh, there is now a cement pipe in Jinyang, you can take time to lead people to visit and learn."

During his time in Luoyang, Li Qi just caught up with the spring entrance exam of Luoyang Fuxue.

At Li Qi's request, the content and subjects of the imperial examination have been revised on a large scale.

Confucianism has not been completely abandoned, but it can only be regarded as one of the subjects of the imperial examination, and Confucian officials can only enter the ministry, education or procuratorial departments. Therefore, slowly, some scholars who mainly studied Confucianism began to change to other disciplines.

The imperial examination itself had the role of promoting science and technology education in the country, and a complete examination system was also necessary for the stability of the dynastic regime. The ruling class needs to show that it is open to the common people through the imperial examinations, and the common people can pass this examination system to enter the ruling class and become a member of it.

The bureaucratic ruling clique also needs to constantly absorb elites from the common class to maintain its vitality, and in this way gain broad support from the people at the bottom.

What is slightly different from the past is that in this kind of examination, the students who have to enter the government school are only quasi-officials, and they have to go through three or four years of systematic study and training in the government school, and only after passing the final examination and obtaining the graduation certificate can they be uniformly assigned by the officials and become a member of the Datang bureaucracy.

The enrollment scale of Luoyang Fuxue is 800 students per year, which is second only to Jinyang Fuxue and Chengdu Fuxue, but it is higher than the 600 posts per year of other Fuxue.

After the examination, Li Qi specially met with this year's freshman representatives and encouraged them to study hard and master more knowledge, so as to make greater contributions to the great cause of the Tang Empire in the future.

In May, during the wheat harvest season, Li Qi arrived in Nanyang.

An planned to go to Jingzhou and Tanzhou to inspect his new territory, but an unexpected incident disrupted his itinerary.

After Zhou Ben, the assassin of Luzhou in Wu State, "defected" to the imperial court last winter with Yang Meng, the Duke of Liyang, and his daughter, he was always a little uneasy, for fear that Xu Zhihe would be angry with him after he found out.

After more than half a year like this, I didn't see any movement in Jinling, so I felt a little relieved.

In May, Xu Zhihe suddenly appointed Zhou Ben as the assassin of Jiangzhou, and sent Sima Xu Jue to Luzhou to replace Zhou Ben.

Xu Zhihe actually didn't think much about it, but he just felt that Jiangzhou was close to the jurisdiction of the Tang Dynasty, which was the western barrier of Jiangning Mansion, and its geographical location was much more important than that of Luzhou. Zhou Bennai was a general of Wu and a confidant under Xu Wen, so he wanted to transfer Zhou Ben to Jiangzhou to resist the possible invasion of the imperial army.

The problem is that Zhou Ben has a ghost in his heart, Xu Zhihe's transfer, thinking that he was preparing to collect his military power, and then preparing to clean himself up. After Xu Jue came to Luzhou and read out Xu Zhihe's appointment, Zhou Ben was quiet at first, invited Xu Jue to a banquet in the office, and settled him and his entourage in the post house first.

After that, Zhou Benxun gathered his henchmen and strategists to start secret talks.

After saying his thoughts, Zhou Zuo first said loudly: "If my father leaves the town easily, it is tantamount to throwing himself into the net, so it is better to refuse!" ”

Another observer judge Sun Feng said: "I heard that the Son of Heaven treats people kindly, why don't you vote directly to the court!" ”

Hearing him say this, he actually won the consent of most people, and Zhou Ben made up his mind, while sending people to the Tang camps in Yingzhou and Gwangju to ask for help, and on the other hand, he sent his subordinates to detain Xu Jue.
