Chapter 199: A New Government Initiated
PS: I'm back. This book is back up and down.
After Li Yibai returned to the position of prime minister, no one could shake his position.
The position is secure, and he can let it go.
He immediately proceeded with his plan to form a new government.
He first directly bought a row of houses in front of the Beijing Political Affairs Hall. These houses are the courtyards of wealthy merchants, and they are all elegant and luxurious.
It stands to reason that these rich businessmen are not short of money, and it is impossible for them to sell Li Yibai's house. But Li Yibai gave them some fictitious official positions, and they were not only willing to sell the house to Li Yibai, but also sold it to them at a low price. Because an official position is too important to them. Rich people, after having money, are like having status. Although the official position is a fictitious position, it can also bring status.
Li Yibai grasped the psychology of these people and bought a lot of good houses very smoothly.
As a result, these houses were converted into offices for the new government. Each house is divided into a department. Such as the Ministry of Culture, the Ministry of Water Resources, the Ministry of Commerce and so on.
Students in Lin'an moved into the new government's office and started their official work.
Li Yibai is still working in the Wu Palace.
Wu Wangfu is equivalent to a political hall and the State Council.
If you have people, you have office space. All that remains is to give them official positions. In order to facilitate the name, Li Yibai actually made it troublesome for the province to name them again, so he directly named them according to the official positions in modern society.
The heads of the ministries are called ministers. Below the Minister there is the Director.
The minister is equivalent to the Shangshu or Shilang of the original six departments. The director is equivalent to Lang Zhong of the original six departments.
Li Yibai appointed a large number of official positions to these people. At the same time, the appointment was reported to Song Huizong for approval.
After Song Huizong got the concerto, he was taken aback. So many people. It was the first time he had seen it.
'King Wu. There are too many of them. Why do you appoint so many officials at once? ’
Li Yibai also understood in his heart. The emperor's doubts were normal. I'll have to explain it to him.
He smiled faintly. 'Your Majesty. These people were the backbone of the reform of the Great Song Dynasty. I need the help of these people to completely reform the Great Song Dynasty. The original officials. Compared to His Majesty, he also knows their pedantic and conservative. They are not educated enough to carry out the burden of reform. Your Majesty still remembers Wang Anshi's change of law during the Shenzong Dynasty? ’
Song Huizong nodded intently, "Of course I remember that Wang Anshi finally failed to change the law due to the opposition of many ministers, and then stepped down. ’
Li Yibai nodded, "That's right. Wang Anshi's change was because of a large number of diehards and conservative ministers. They united with the Empress Dowager, which eventually led to Emperor Shenzong also being shaken. Therefore, even with the support of the emperor, this change is still difficult. ’
Song Huizong sighed, "Yes. That is, although I am the emperor. But for some things that you want to do, you can't do it, and some of the ministers below, I can't do anything about them. If King Wu really has a way to change this, I have your back. As long as you promise to keep my throne. ’
Li Yibai said seriously, "Your Majesty rest assured. As long as Your Majesty supports my reforms. Your Majesty's throne is not to mention that it is stable in this life, but it is stable for all generations. For all eternity, how great this merit will be. Your children and grandchildren will be grateful for your kindness.
I have asked for the re-establishment of so many official lists this time in order to directly replace the original officials. Just like Taizu and Taizong idle the six departments and used three divisions and two mansions instead. ’
Song Huizong smiled slightly. I see. King Wu is indeed a talent of warp and weft. Kindness. I agree. ’
After speaking, Song Huizong ruthlessly ticked a red check sign on the concerto.
So the decree was issued, and the Great Song court appointed 500 trusted officials at once. None of the officials said what they did at first.
But Li Yibai is close to them. Li Yibai took a group photo with them. And shake hands one by one. Everyone can see that these people are Li Yibai's people.
At the beginning, the local official documents were still thinking twice and six departments. But Li Yibai didn't look at the official document submitted by the Sansi Erfu at all.
He only looked at the official documents of the new government that he had arranged. So the status of the official is clear in his heart. When they delivered the official document again, they did not give it to the second thought and the six ministries. Instead, it was directly submitted to the new government department, so that Li Yibai saw the official document and approved it.
Because of Li Yibai's bias, the power of the DPRK and China was tilted towards the new government. Gradually, the officials of the second government and the third division had nothing to do after almost went to work. For many mediocre officials, they think it's a good thing, anyway, if they don't do things, they will still be paid, which is not bad, and they don't have to be held responsible.
But there were also some officials in the old yamen who wanted to do things, such as Li Gang.
Li Gang is a person who can't be idle, he is only dedicated to serving the country and doing things for the people. He came directly to King Wu's mansion to find Li Yibai.
'His Royal Highness King Wu. I'm afraid it's not good for you to make the two governments and three divisions idle like this. That way the rest of us have nothing to do. ’
Li Gang frowned and said anxiously.
Li Yibai smiled faintly, "Master Li is really a good official." Don't worry, I've left you a place in the new government. You should be the deputy prime minister. ’
Li Gang wondered, 'What is the vice premier?' ’
Li Yibai smiled again, "The vice premier is the governor of the government." And I, as the head of the Chinese book, is the prime minister. ’
Hearing Li Yibai say this, the frown on Li Gang's head relaxed, and he smiled happily, "So that's the case." The subordinates thanked King Wu for his trust. ’
Of course, Li Gang was happy, his previous position was only one of the deputy ministers of the six ministries. How can I not be happy about this official position of deputy prime minister, which is equivalent to participating in political affairs. Regardless of whether Li Gang is upright or not, his promotion to a high-ranking official is something that any scholar dreams of.
Li Yibai said, "By the way, Master Li, you are familiar with the old yamen, and you can select some honest and capable people from among them." We cannot disappoint those who have a noble faith. ’
'Yes, King Wu, my subordinates will do it. Li Gang arched his hand.
Li Yibai smiled slightly, "Don't be in such a hurry. Let's make it and have a cup of tea. I'd like to talk to you about it. ’
Li Yibai is the prime minister, and Li Gang does not dare to refuse. So he followed him into the room.
This room is a combination of ancient and modern. The chair is of agarwood. However, there is a home theater installed in the living room. A huge giant screen TV hangs right on the wall.
The two sat down in front of the giant screen TV.
Li Gang was a little restrained, and Li Yibai smiled again when he saw his nervous appearance.
"Master Li doesn't have to be nervous, he will make this his home in the future." You'll come here more often in the future. ’
Li Gang hurriedly surrendered his hand, "Don't dare, King Wu." This is your palace. ’
Li Yibai laughed, "You will be my right-hand man in the future." ’
At this time, Long Wu walked in. 'Daddy. Master Lee. ’
Li Gang also hurriedly stood up and responded to Long Wu.
'Long Wu, you also sit down. Let's talk together. Li Yibai commanded.
After Long Wu sat down, Li Yibai continued,
After that, the Wu Wangfu was the office of the new government. I'm afraid the two of you are going to come here often. There are also rooms in the front yard, and sometimes it is too late and you can stay. ’
Li Gang hurriedly stood up again, "Don't dare, King Wu." I don't know why King Wu trusts his subordinates so much, which really makes his subordinates panic. ’
Li Yibai waved his hand, "Don't be polite to me anymore." I order you not to be polite any more. From now on, we will be like friends, colleagues. The reason why I am polite to Master Lee. The main reason is that I attach importance to Mr. Li's character, and Mr. Li is a rare talent in the old yamen. You are familiar with the situation in the old yamen. Although I want to reform the Great Song Dynasty. But I can't be short of feedback on different meanings.
And you can give me feedback on situations that I may not be able to hear from time to time. After all, I'm a reformer, and I'm for the new. And you're old-fashioned, and you definitely want to keep some of the old stuff.
There are some good ones in the old stuff as well. For example, the humanistic feelings of the Great Song Dynasty, respect for scholars, respect for teachers, and filial piety. These are all good things. We can't throw it away.
So when we reform and change the good things, you have to stand up and speak, and then you don't save face for me, stick to your ideas, just say it. ’
Li Gang hurriedly said excitedly, "King Wu is wise. It really has the style of Tang Zong and Song Zu. ’
Long Wu also smiled faintly, "Dad, this is called to listen to it and it will be bright, and if you listen to it, it will be dark." ’
'Yes. The fifth young master was right. King Wu, don't worry. I will definitely live up to the trust of King Wu and will do my best. ’
Li Gang said seriously again.
"Master Li, you should see why I want to reform. ’
Saying that, Li Yibai pressed the remote control on the giant screen TV.
The giant screen TV was turned on, and the public welfare film of the new Da Song was played on it.
You understand my ideas, and the benefits of reform are clear. In this way, you have a starting point for doing things. It will be more supportive and motivated to do it.
What we pay attention to in reform is to realize our dreams, and everything we do is for the sake of future generations to realize this dream of a happy life. ’
Li Yibai said while watching.
Li Gang nodded and watched.
I finished reading it. Li Gang was excited again. I see, my admiration for King Wu has increased a few times.
In the past, I just thought that King Wu was a responsible and upright person who was responsible for the country and the people. Now I know that King Wu wants to open peace for all generations and be happy for all generations. This merit is truly great. I can't even think of such a thing. ’
Li Yibai smiled lightly, "Master Li is overrated. Master Li is not a person to welcome, and I am a little embarrassed by what you said. ’
was ridiculed by Li Yibai with such a humor, Li Gang also laughed, and after laughing, he still said seriously,
'King Wu, I really admire you seriously. ’
After Li Gang left.
Long Wu asked Li Yibai and said, "Dad, why did you ask Li Gang to help you choose someone." It's not your own choice. ’
Li Yibai said seriously, "We should trust Li Gang." He is a man of integrity. I don't have to worry about him choosing people. He would never let in those who fish in troubled waters. Moreover, he is familiar with the old yamen, with those officials, and he will do things better than if I did it myself. ’
Long Wu nodded and said, "Dad, you are really a good person. (To be continued, please search, the novel is better and faster!)
