Regarding this issue, Weichen had similar doubts before, and therefore ordered someone to do some investigations. As a result, Weichen found that the officials in Hebei were better than the officials in Shandong. ”

Han Xiao's answer did not satisfy Zhang Lingyang, they are all local officials, why are the officials in Hebei more shrewd and capable than those in Shandong?

Regarding this confusion, Zhang Lingyang was always puzzled, and Han Xiao just didn't dare to answer.

"Say, I forgive you not guilty!" Maybe there is something big hidden involved, otherwise Han Xiao would not have behaved like this, so Zhang Lingyang said.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Han Xiao confessed first, then knelt on the ground and said, "Your Majesty, this is all related to the holy decree you issued in the third year of Tai'an!" ”

"Divine decree?" Zhang Lingyang couldn't come back to his senses for a while, "What holy decree?" ”

"In the third year of Tai'an, Shandong Governor Zhao Wuwei rebelled, implicating hundreds of local officials, in order to make up for the omissions and check the vacancies, His Majesty issued an order to use a large number of backup officials......" Saying this, Han Xiao didn't dare to say any more.

"Could it be that this has something to do with those backup officials?" Zhang Lingyang's expression flickered a little, he turned to stare at Han Xiao and continued, "You go on, I will forgive you for your innocence!" ”

No, Han Xiao had to bite the bullet and tell everything he knew, "Back to Your Majesty, among the backup officials, except for a very few people who were not hired because Ding Wei had no way to do so, most of the rest were people with mediocre political achievements during their previous tenure. ”

"Mediocre political performance?" Zhang Lingyang sneered: "It's a mediocre political record, you just say that these people can't get a vegetarian meal!" ”

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Han Xiao continued, "Before, the people of Shandong had been exploited by Zhao Wuwei and others, and all kinds of harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes were imposed. When Zhao didn't leak anything, another small turmoil broke out in Shandong. Although the unrest was only in Shandong, the other state capitals had some influence to a greater or lesser extent.

Originally, at this time, the newly appointed officials should stabilize the people's livelihood and actively resume production. But what about these officials in Shandong? Most of them pretend to be deaf and dumb in their positions, and they ignore the livelihood of the people under their rule, which is why they have led to the current scene. ”

"Then why didn't anyone talk about this matter in the DPRK?" Zhang Lingyang said angrily.

Han Xiao muttered, "Isn't it because it was Your Majesty's will to use the backup officials at that time?" Who in the DPRK and China would dare to oppose it? ”

Although Han Xiao's voice was very small, it still reached Zhang Lingyang's ears word for word.

Hearing this, Zhang Lingyang smiled angrily, "In my opinion, the ministers of the DPRK and China are not good things, and they always oppose me in military affairs, and once they are involved in local affairs, they all turn a blind eye, what are they?" ”

"Yes! Be! Your Majesty said yes! Han Xiao echoed on the side.

Glaring at Han Xiao, Zhang Lingyang scolded: "And you, you're not a good thing!" ”

Han Xiao's eyes widened, his eyes were very innocent, and he said in his heart: "What's the matter with this Guan Weichen?" ”

As if to see through Han Xiao's heart, Zhang Lingyang said: "You don't have to pretend to be innocent in front of me, I ask you, the minister of the DPRK and China concealed this matter because of the protection of officials and officials, why did you know it for a long time but didn't mention it to me?" ”

Han Xiao shouted wronged, "Your Majesty, it's not that Weichen doesn't want to mention this matter to Your Majesty, I'm really worried that it will hurt Your Majesty's Long Yan!" ”

"Wounded dragon face?" Zhang Lingyang smiled, "Could it be that this has become my responsibility?" ”

"Your Majesty, it's all your intention to appoint a backup official......" Han Xiao's voice became smaller and smaller, so that he couldn't even hear what he said in the end.

"You don't have to mumble here, I can guess one or two of what you think in your heart!" Taking a deep breath, Zhang Lingyang calmed down and said, "You can take someone to investigate now, see what officials are in Shandong, and give me a 1510 return!" ”

"Little Fuzi, get me in!" Zhang Lingyang shouted outside.

"What do you command?"

"You immediately draw up a decree and send it to Chen Yiming, the secretary of the Ministry of Officials, and ask him to draw up a list of officials, and I see that the officials in Shandong still have to be changed again!"

"Slaves obey!"

……

Han Xiao had already mastered the personnel list of these officials who were in the corpse position, and it took less than three days to sort it out, and then submitted it to Zhang Lingyang.

When Zhang Lingyang saw it, he was immediately angry.

In the entire Shandong Province, the number of officials who eat vegetarian meals has reached seventy percent, how can this be endured? Zhang Lingyang immediately ordered someone to send this list of personnel to the capital, and ordered Chen Yiming, the secretary of the Ministry of Officials, to fill in the official positions on this list one by one.

In the capital, in the Donghua Pavilion, after Chen Yiming received the holy decree, his brows furrowed slightly.

With so many local officials, the officials really couldn't find so many suitable backup personnel for a while.

Seeing this, Zhu Kaishan, the head of the household department, suggested to Chen Yiming: "Chen Shangshu, with the old man's meaning, it is better to transfer a group of officials who can serve from other places to Shandong, and then appoint other places to supplement the real place, so that everything will be fine!" ”

"Thank you Zhu Shangshu for reminding me!" After listening to Zhu Kaishan's opinion, Chen Yiming's eyes lit up, and he said 'thanks' and hurried to the yamen of the ministry.

Three days later, Zhang Lingyang, who was far away in Shandong, received Chen Yiming's reply and was very satisfied with Chen Yiming's Chen Song terms.

"Promote officials with outstanding political achievements or old officials to local chiefs, and then appoint new post-secondary officials as local auxiliary officials, this Chen Yiming really has a set."

It's a pity that Chen Yiming couldn't hear Zhang Lingyang's praise, otherwise he would definitely be very happy in his heart.

As he spoke, Zhang Lingyang added a few more opinions, and ordered someone to pass them on to the Ministry of Officials, so that the Ministry of Officials could follow this statement.

At the same time, Zhang Lingyang issued another decree, ordering all mediocre officials in Shandong to submit their resignations within one month and never reuse them, so that this matter could be considered to be dealt with.

After staying in the palace for a few more days, Zhang Lingyang's Luan drove again and set off in the direction of Mount Tai.

On the way to Mount Tai, nothing major happened. As for those trivial things, naturally Zhang Lingyang doesn't have to worry about it.

It took four days for Zhang Lingyang's Luan to finally reach the foot of Mount Tai.

"This is Mount Tai, the head of the five mountains!" Looking at Mount Tai towering into the clouds, Zhang Lingyang couldn't help but feel an inexplicable throbbing in his heart.

If you are an ordinary tourist in later generations, climbing Mount Tai is nothing more than browsing the scenery and places of interest on the mountain. But Zhang Lingyang, who is the emperor, is different.

In other words, for the emperors of all dynasties, climbing Mount Tai was an extremely sacred thing......
