Chapter 239: Examination Method (3)

A few days later, Chang'an again received a flying pigeon from Zhang Lang, a Qianniu guard, and then sent it to Li Shimin.

"Go and call the ministers of the imperial court above the fourth grade to come over!" Li Shimin said.

Soon, the officials above the fourth rank in Chang'an came to the Liangyi Hall one after another to gather, and everyone didn't know what Li Shimin asked them to do. But everyone knows that there must be something big, and it's definitely not a small thing. So everyone hurried over, not daring to be late at all.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I have a very important matter to discuss with you today. I got a suggestion from one person, and that was a plan for the selection and evaluation of officials. And I hope you will discuss it, after all, the selection and appointment of officials are related to the vital foundation of our Tang Dynasty, and they must not be taken lightly. That's why I'm not good at it, so I invite you to come and discuss. Li Shimin said.

"Please make it clear to the emperor!" Everyone said together.

"Send it down!" Li Shimin said.

Soon, the eunuchs of the imperial court also began to release explanations about the examination method to the court officials, and everyone began to check the examination method. Next, everyone also began to look at the core of this test method one by one. The core of the test method is actually to test the ability of each department to do things, test everyone's ability to complete tasks, and then use this as the basis for promotion. After the implementation of this examination method, it can greatly stimulate the enthusiasm of those officials, after all, as long as they do things seriously and do more things, they can have a basis for promotion. And this is a very good thing for middle and low-level officials. The officials at the bottom do not need to make too many decisions, they just need to carry out the tasks assigned by the superiors.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that this test method is a great use. He can make the officials at the bottom of the work happy to be diligent, after all, if they are diligent in government, they will be able to get promoted. However, this does not seem to be of much use to high-level officials. Fang Xuanling said.

Fang Xuanling is very smart, he can quickly see the advantages and disadvantages of this test method, but this is of little use to high-level officials. Because high-level officials are already biased towards decision-making rather than completing tasks.

The eldest grandson Wuji then added: "Although this can only be useful for low-level officials, it is also a very great method. After all, no matter what era, it is the low-level officials who occupy the vast majority, and if the low-level officials can perform the tasks of the high-level wholeheartedly, and can be willing to carry them out, and can perform them well, it will be very good. If every task of the imperial court can be carried out to the letter, then how can my Datang not be strong? ”

The eldest grandson Wuji is not a mediocre talent, he has already realized the problem of the execution of low-level officials. This has been the case for many eras since ancient times. It was a good policy at the top, but it was completely out of shape at the grassroots level. Originally, it was a good policy at the top, but once it reached the grassroots level, it became a policy that endangered the people, and this was really a tragedy. From Wang Anshi's reform of the law to various reforms later, if the execution at the bottom is not good, it will not be possible to complete a reform at all. And if the country's policies can be implemented to the letter, it will be the real gospel for the people. In many cases, the state does not come out of the top level, but out of the middle and low level of implementation. The biggest problem is the difficulty of implementation. And this test method can greatly strengthen the execution of the middle and low levels, and this eldest grandson Wuji quickly saw it.

"Your Majesty, who came up with this method? This is also a great talent. It should be reused! Du Ruhui said.

Li Shimin smiled and said, "Bozhou recorded the matter and joined the army Chen Fei came up with it!" ”

"Is that him?" Du Ruhui was also surprised.

Du Ruhui really didn't expect that he just thought that Chen Fei had a set of people's livelihood and money, but now he didn't expect that this kind of management and personnel work is also very good. Chen Fei is managing personnel. What is this kind of assessment of officials not management personnel? Du Ruhui is actually the secretary of the ministry, and he is responsible for managing personnel issues. Now there is a good way to help screen officials, which Du Ruhui did not expect. But it actually made Chen Fei think of it.

"What a genius! Not only does he have a set of development of local people's livelihood, but he is also so talented in managing personnel, he should have been left in Chang'an, how could he listen to Cui Fu's words and let him do that kind of dirty work! Du Ruhui thought in his heart.

Du Ruhui actually found that he was looking away again, he originally thought that Chen Fei only had one set of developing people's livelihood and making money, but now he actually has one set of personnel management, so if Chen Fei was asked to help Cui Fu seize the position of the head of the Cui family, it would be Qu Cai. And it was also a very dangerous place, so Du Ruhui didn't want Chen Fei to go there. But it's too late now, so Du Ruhui only has his own regrets.

"Guys, what do you think? If there is no opinion, then I will also order the whole country to implement this examination method, how about it? Li Shimin asked.

And Du Ruhui immediately spoke: "Your Majesty, since this method was thought up by Chen Fei, you might as well reward him." His position is not suitable for promotion in a short period of time, but he still has a knighthood, that is, the son of Weinan County. His actual fiefdom is 250 households, so he might as well add 50 fiefdoms to him as a reward for meritorious heroes. ”

Li Shimin thought for a while, and said: "This test method is also a very good way for our Datang, and it can select many good officials for my Datang." And this is a good thing that is meritorious in the present and beneficial in the future, of course, it must be rewarded. Then add fifty fiefdoms to Chen Fei, so that he can serve the imperial court with peace of mind. ”

Chen Fei's fiefdom has increased by fifty households again, and Chen Fei will be very happy if he knows about it, after all, he is finally not "two hundred and five". And with fifty more fiefdoms, Chen Fei's income has increased every year for no reason, which is equal to hundreds of thousands of income in later generations, so that he can exploit money from the people while lying down, which of course makes Chen Fei very satisfied. After all, these fiefdom systems in the Tang Dynasty were able to obtain a lot of wealth, although there was no way to compare with the feuds of the Han Dynasty back then, but the annual income was millions to tens of millions, which was still possible. If you become a national prince, I am afraid that the annual income is equivalent to tens of millions in the future world. And the only thing that made Chen Fei unhappy was Princess Wanchun's Tang Muyi, which had more than 1,000 households, three times that of Chen Fei. The income is not as good as his future wife, which has always made Chen Fei helpless. (To be continued......)
