Chapter 788: The End of the Fourth Year of the Marquis of Wei
Time passed slowly, and the fact of Zheng's demise was finally known to the whole world, and the fear of Wei became deeper and deeper.
And the time also came to December 20 in the fourth year of the Marquis of Wei, which was also the date of the last court meeting of the year.
After that, Wei Wuji no longer held court meetings, but would only convene small court meetings, and only a few important ministers and generals would attend the meeting.
Therefore, this meeting is all the more important, because it is necessary not only to consider the gains and losses of the year, but also to discuss the governance of the newly occupied territories.
Of course, at the end of the meeting, you can also briefly look forward to the future, and this is Wei Wuji's business, and he is responsible for formulating the major policies of Wei.
The court meeting was held as scheduled, and in addition to the officials in Wu'an City, the chief officials of various counties were also present, and they came to report on their work.
Therefore, the number of people in the court is extraordinarily large, so that many people who are not of enough level can only stand outside the main hall.
But whether it is the county guard of the ruling side or the general who leads the troops outside, they are extremely solemn in the hall at this time.
After Wei Wuji ascended to the throne, the courtiers below all bowed and said, "The ministers meet the king!" ”
A few days ago, the remnants of the Yu clan actually returned to Wu'an, which made many people feel panicked, and they didn't know what the monarch meant, so they had to be more cautious at this time.
Wei Wuji, who was on the throne, said calmly: "No courtesy! ”
Only then did the courtiers below get up, and they all set their eyes on Wei Wuji on the throne.
The role of this level of court show is greater than the actual function, but Wei Wuji did not intend to do so this time, so he threw out the first topic of the court meeting.
I only heard Wei Wuji speak: "Fellow ministers, there are three important things to discuss today, and all the ministers can speak freely!" ”
Speak freely, since Wei Wuji succeeded to the throne, these ministers have never spoken freely, so they are wary of Wei Wuji's words.
Then I heard Wei Wuji say: "The first thing, this year is about to pass, and I have been busy with a lot of things inside and outside the court for a year, so I can take it out and talk about it today!" ”
"Let's see if I've really done something practical in the past year!"
Speaking of this, Wei Wuji said to Guo Liangdong in front of him: "Prime Minister, it's up to you to start!" ”
Guo Liangdong is the head of the hundred officials, so after being named, he immediately stood up.
After saluting Wei Wuji, Guo Liangdong continued to speak, starting with people's livelihood, including agriculture, water conservancy, taxation and so on.
Guo Liangdong is worthy of being an old Jianghu, and he has outlines about the affairs of the Wei State, even Wei Wuji is ashamed of himself.
After Guo Liangdong finished speaking, he began to start with the chief Sinong in Jiuqing, and the court officials made a detailed summary of the year's work, so that the pillars of Wei who were present had a clearer understanding of the country's situation.
After the court officials finished speaking, more than a dozen county guards who returned to the capital to report on their work came to the scene, and they wanted to introduce the situation of the counties under their jurisdiction.
It's just that they can only briefly introduce at this time, and they will be summoned by Wei Wuji alone later, and that is when they will report everything in detail.
The speeches at the court meeting were made in an endless stream of speeches, which made many officials feel miserable.
The ministers in the palace are all right, at least warm...... And those people standing outside the hall were really uncomfortable at this time, not only did they not have the opportunity to speak, but they also had to suffer from the bitter cold.
When the last county guard finished speaking, Wei Wuji, who had listened for a long time, spoke: "Only by listening to what the monarchs say can we know the key points of the affairs of the Great Wei, and the ministers of the court can know the affairs of the county, and the county can also know the government of the county!" ”
"Good ...... Great Kindness ......"
Wei Wuji's hearty laughter made everyone concentrate their spirits, others can fish in troubled waters when they speak, but the monarch has to concentrate on scrutinizing every word.
"But what the gentlemen said all means that people's livelihood is tired and financial difficulties are difficult...... But you should also see that my Great Wei has also made great achievements in the past year! ”
"The Tang State and the Xiao State have fallen, the land of Qin Chen has fallen, and the Zheng State has also been destroyed, and my Great Wei has increased the land of four counties within a year!"
Speaking of this, Wei Wuji was also very excited at this time, the four counties were equivalent to one-third of the area of Wei.
"Think about it, isn't it worth it to get so much land and live a little tighter inside and outside the court?" Wei Wuji asked rhetorically.
Who dares to say that it is not worth it at this time, let alone that the matter is worth it in the first place.
Regardless of the family or the poor family, as long as there are military positions, they have obtained military merits in successive wars, and have achieved knighthood and glory for themselves and their families.
"Your Majesty!" At this time, all the ministers said.
Wei Wuji didn't delve into this matter anymore, and only listened to him say slowly: "The land of the four counties has been occupied, how do you think it should be governed?" ”
In fact, this question is easy to answer, the whole territory of Wei implements the county system, and these four counties are certainly no exception.
No one dares to propose the word "separation" at this time, it is digging a pit to bury themselves.
I saw Prime Minister Guo Liangdong and said: "Your Excellency, the ministers think that they should follow the old rules, and they should all be placed as counties, and send county guards to govern!" ”
Wei Wuji nodded, and then he said to the ministers below, "What the prime minister said, do you have any objections?" ”
There was silence in the main hall, Wei Wuji waited again and again, and after understanding that there was no such person who was waiting to die, he said: "Then according to the words of the prime minister, the four counties will be placed as counties!" ”
"Your Majesty!"
This is what the monarch looks like, and the courtiers can only call the monarch holy.
Wei Wuji nodded, this matter was not negotiable, so he said again: "Prime Minister, you select outstanding people from among the county officials in all counties across the country!" ”
"The princes of the court, from tomorrow onwards, you can nominate talents, thinking that they are the county guards!"
According to Wei Wuji's intentions, the county decree of the newly established four counties was selected from among the county officials from all over the country, giving those who had the ability a chance.
And such a big man as the county guard must be released by the court officials, so as to ensure stability.
An important point here is that Wei Wuji did not let these people elect the county lieutenant, which shows that Wei Wuji still attaches great importance to military power and does not give anyone a chance to get involved.
"Your Majesty!" The ministers in the palace all bowed down.
There are so many vacancies for officials all of a sudden, and it is an opportunity for many people, whether it is to install a nephew or to serve as a county guard, it is a great joy.
But these people forgot one thing, whether it was the county officials listed by the prime minister, or the choice of the county guards recommended by the court, they all had to be confirmed by Wei Wuji in the end.
In other words, in the end, the only person who can serve as the local government office will be the person recognized by Wei Wuji, or Wei Wuji's person.
At Wei Wuji's gaze, Yu Zhong immediately stood up and shouted, "Silence, silence!" ”
was shouted by Yu Zhong like this, and the ministers in the palace remembered what place this was, and they all quieted down like mice and cats.
So Wei Wuji spoke again: "This year has been a great achievement, but as the monarchs said, the consumption of our Great Wei national strength is very huge!" ”
"It is important for the widow to expand his territory, but the livelihood of the widow is equally important...... Therefore, the government of recuperation and recuperation and recuperation with the people has shown an urgent trend! ”
There was a truce in Wei Wuji's words, which made the courtiers breathe a sigh of relief, it was time for the war machine of Wei to stop and rest.
Therefore, at this time, the ministers all said: "Your Majesty is Shengming!" ”
I don't know how many times the courtiers have said that the king is sage, and it can also be seen that Wei Wuji has a strong control over the inside and outside of the court.
Afterwards, Wei Wuji smiled and said: "If you want to remake the national government, then start immediately, and spread the envoys of the Wu State to meet you!" ”
It was no secret that the envoys of the State of Wu had arrived in Wu'an, but what the courtiers did not expect was that Wei Wuji would receive the envoys of Wu here and now.
As a result, the courtiers could also see how strongly the monarch's intention to change the national policy was, which really reassured them.
Wei needed a hero who would lead everyone to the top, not a madman who would only be ruthless.
As for the purpose of the Wu people's visit, most of the courtiers could guess something.
Now that Wu is defeated by the Chu State, the situation is even more critical than the current Qin State, and finding the Wei State is naturally asking for help, and it is by no means a simple peace.
The state of Chu is a threat to the state of Wu, and this is not the case for the state of Wei!
