Chapter 155: Set Sail (1)
Your Majesty has arrived at the White Horse Temple?
The officials who stood at the gate of the city to greet each other looked at each other.
"Yes, he said that in the past few years, many soldiers have died in battle, and he went to the White Horse Temple to pray for the soldiers for seven days." The guard replied respectfully.
The ministers had no choice but to come to the White Horse Temple to greet them.
The road leading to the White Horse Temple was filled with heavily armed soldiers, looking at the ministers with vigilant eyes. I am quite interested in singing the taste of the Hongmen banquet.
At that time, the scenery of the White Horse Temple was very beautiful, and there were many pomegranate trees growing on the mountain roads on both sides, and there were small pomegranates hanging one by one, which were not ripe, but looked very cute. The mountain roads are shady and the trees are green, making people feel cool.
But the ministers, one heart is uneasy.
After entering the White Horse Temple, he was not received, and the guards reported that Li Wei was playing chess with the host.
Everyone had to stand.
About two chess opponents, a game of chess played for a long time, everyone was tired of standing, and the guards came out to report, saying that Li Wei let them in.
In the meditation room, there was no such a large meditation room, and the ministers had to stand in the courtyard, and the high-ranking people crowded under the two big trees in the courtyard, and the low-ranking people had to stand under the big sun and let the sun roast and dry. But they all knew in their hearts that the emperor was very dissatisfied with them, so he deliberately did this.
Li Wei walked out with his hands behind his back, and the ministers paid their respects, and Li Wei helped them to get up.
With the edict, the first was the reform of the system.
All the official systems were restored, and the official systems established by Wu Zetian were all overthrown. Then the government hall was moved to Menxia Province again. Originally, I didn't pay attention to it, but when my mother moved, Li Wei reflected on it, and only then did he feel the greatness of his grandfather.
The power of the province has been strengthened, and it will also play a good role in supervising the throne. Because there is no decision-making power, only the right to deliberate, and the government hall in the subordinate province will not produce power. Of course, a system is a system, and if the emperor is mediocre, no matter how good the system is, it will not be able to stop the decline of the country.
Moreover, in order to further restrict the imperial power, henceforth, no edict shall be issued without the approval of the subordinate provinces. Since then, today's edicts are not included. However, in order to restrain the expansion of power in the province, Li Wei then resumed some of Li Shimin's practices, allowing officials from various ministries to participate in the deliberations of the political affairs hall. However, for the sake of simplicity, it is passed on one or two copies a day, or it is supervised and sent to the temple. For example, today the affairs of the household department are the main thing, and the principal officials of the household department must go to the provincial government hall to participate in the discussion.
Democracy is no longer working, but it can maximize the democracy of the current system.
Everyone glanced at each other and didn't dare to speak, but they were all saying in their hearts, In this way, the imperial power is equivalent to invisibly weakening a part. However, the position of squire has become very sought-after.
After the guard finished reading, Li Wei asked slowly; "Do you have any objections?"
"Nope." replied in unison.
Even some ministers with a long-term vision can see the beauty of it. In this way, there is no obstacle to the virtuous monarch, and once a mediocre emperor appears, he can restrain the absurd practices of the emperor.
But it's still a system, it's dead. When confronted with a tyrannical emperor, he forcibly changed the system and concentrated power, and the ministers were in a weak position. This Li Wei can't solve it.
The guard then read the second edict. It is a transfer of personnel.
First of all, the Yulin Army, let Li Jinxing and Qi Ming be the generals of the Yulin Army. The machine of violence has to be controlled.
Only then did the decree be announced.
There was originally a best candidate, Li Yiyan, not talent, but seniority, and was very loyal to himself, but let his mother edict to execute. Di Renjie returned to the original and continued to serve as a servant. There were originally two good candidates, Wei Fangzhi and Su Liangsi, this time it was not about seniority, nor talent, but about age. If Wei Yuanzhong is allowed to serve as the commander of the Gang Bu Shot, relatively speaking, he and Di Renjie are too young.
But it doesn't matter, the post of the national truth and Shangshu is often vacant. So it was vacant.
Then when I arrived at Zhu Jingze, it was indeed the imperial doctor, and he was a three-grade disciple.
The long mandate was not completed, so Wei Siqian was appointed as the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and Wu Chenghei was vacant. Pei Judao is still the secretary of the Criminal Department, but this time Li Wei has allocated one person, Xu Yougong, to serve as the servant of the Criminal Department. This is a small person, and no one paid attention to it beforehand. However, Li Wei has been secretly paying attention to him and Zhang Cambodia, and sure enough, the usage is equal, and the people are happy to use it.
Everyone was stunned, not that Xu Yougong was young and in his early forties, but that he was young. Even at this age, he looks very young, after all, he is one of the six squires. But under Li Wei's authority, he didn't dare to refute.
Wei Xuantong was reassigned back to the bundle and served as the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, but he was slightly dissatisfied, if it weren't for the confusion of these people at the time, Pei Yan would have no authority to speak, so he was only awarded Pingzhangshi, not the three products under the Tongzhongshu Sect. Another person, Cen Changqian, was also the same, and was recalled again and served as the secretary of the military department. dismissed Wu Sansi from the post of secretary of the military department, and what position he held, but did not mention. Everyone couldn't help but turn their heads to look at Wu Sansi, Wu Sansi was silent, his face was very calm, I don't know what he was thinking.
In fact, among all the martial arts, only he is the best in terms of conspiracy and tricks.
However, Cen Changqian was not awarded the post of envoy.
Only then did he get to two important positions, and the secretary was awarded Wei Yuanzhong, and with the three grades of the Zhongshu door, the secretary was a very powerful prime minister. For this order, Li Wei transferred Wei Yuanzhong to his side in advance.
Wei Zhigu served as the head of the household and the three products of the Zhongshu Sect, one is talented, and the other is loyal.
Then he asked Yao ■ to serve as the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, and there was originally another candidate, Wei Hongji, to let him serve as the waiter of the Ministry of Industry, or re-assume the position of Si Nongqing, but last year, Wei Hongji died of illness. There is nothing to be done. In fact, this person will be of great use, Jiangnan is the only one who knows the most about civil engineering.
But the last two orders made the officials dumbfounded, and the six ministries were stuffed with their cronies, but Zhongshu Province did not stuff them, so Yao Yuanchong returned and served as a Zhongshu waiter. Although I know that he is a close confidant of the emperor, he is too young, right?
Qian couldn't help but say; "Your Majesty, it's not right."
"Why not? Gan Luo is twelve years old, how old is Yao Yuanchong this year? Or do you think you're more talented than him? Li Wei said gloomily.
Qian was so frightened that he didn't dare to speak again.
read another mandate, let Zhang Cambodia be the Shangshu Zuocheng. This person is not the kind of outstanding person, but he is very loyal to the Li Tang clan, and with him in Shangshu Province, Li Wei can feel at ease in Shangshu Province.
Next, an even more unexpected mandate was issued, and the unknown Song was in charge of the matter. Many people are at a loss who this person is.
There is no controversy about Ximen's appointment, for Wei Wei Shaoqing, there is another person, Pei Ji, who was full of literature in the past, Li Wei has always remembered it vividly, so he took the opportunity to grant the post of Taichang Qing and transferred back a person, Huo Wang Li Yuanliang, as Zong Zhengqing, to control the clan.
The last order surprised everyone again.
Moved Du Jingjian to Dali Temple.
Some people know that this person was originally a palace servant of the imperial history, and he was considered an emperor, so he joined the army for Yizhou to record affairs, and Sima Fang's heir in Longzhou was transferred to Yizhou before he arrived.
But the speed of this promotion is too fast, right? Like Yao Yuanchong, they can still understand that they are the emperor's henchmen, very timely, very orderly, however······
In fact, Li Weisi owed a lot, and the officials in the court were all apostatized under the suppression of his mother, and they became spineless, and they had to change some fresh blood, and they knew that this person was very loyal to him before, but he didn't deal with him. It wasn't until the Fang Heiye incident came that Du Jingjian entered Li Wei's field of vision and asked people to secretly inquire about some of his deeds, and found that this person acted quite like Xu Yougong, so he had this appointment. No matter how bad it is, it's better than the current group of soft eggs in the court.
And Li Wei also firmly believes that at least half of this batch of talents are real talents, and soon, with their help, the empire will show its vitality.
The next edict was rehabilitation, first of all, let Li Xian's family return to the capital and confer knighthood on Li Xian's son. Posthumously presented Liu Renliang and others, and even posthumously presented Pei Xingjian as a master, when the guards read this, Li Wei's eyes flashed with a faint sadness and longing. Liu Renliang is the Taibao, and Li Yiyan is the Tai Lieutenant. Continue to rehabilitate Fan Lubing and other unjustly killed people, and give family members bereavement. The guard closed the edict and stopped reading it.
Many ministers breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts.
This time, the emperor appointed many important ministers to his confidants, so that he quickly controlled from the army to the three provinces and six departments, and even to the monasteries, which is inevitable. They were afraid that the emperor would punish themselves. There is no punishment, and they are all satisfied.
Li Jinxing and Qi Ming entered Luoyang City with reliable guards and their ministers, and quickly replaced them to control Luoyang City.
Di Renjie and others also entered the court.
In the past, Di Renjie was a mess in the court, but this time you can see Di Renjie's talent.
The mountains of twists and turns, just as he did when he was dealing with a case, were disappearing as quickly.
Not only Di Renjie and Wei Yuanzhong's talents were also revealed, and everyone once again admired Li Wei's vision. Yao Yuanchong has not come back yet, but Song has finally come into people's field of vision, although he is very young, and he is far from being able to deal with affairs.
Li Wei was amused by this and dialed it a little quickly, but what kind of person is this? Fang Du in front and Yao Song in the back, known as Yang Chun with feet, brought spring breeze to the people in one place. He and Yao Yuanchong will be the mainstay of the future empire.
As prime ministers, these two people still have some experience, but one is a Chinese scholar, and the other is more than enough to do things.
Some prime ministers have not yet arrived, but after the careful governance of several people, the country is gradually on the right track, Luoyang returns to calm, and Li Wei set off from the White Horse Temple and enters Luoyang City.
In the cheers of the people, he crossed the Tianjin Bridge and walked towards the palace.
The first thing is to say hello to Wu Zetian. Mother, there are things that still have to be said, but there are things that need to be done.
With so much effort and effort, how could it be over!
