Chapter 453: Lao Tzu Quit!

Although Li Wanjiang removed Xiao Chen from the title of general of the expedition to the north, he officially appointed him as the governor of Yanyun County, and Chen Wenqi also suggested that Xiao Chen be given the title of squire.

In fact, this is also a bit nondescript, because Xiao Chen is already the governor, that is, a proper second-grade officer, and the squire is only a third-grade person, don't forget that Xiao Chen also has the title of a first-grade eunuch.

So his current official title is the first-rank eunuch, the second-rank governor of Yanyun County, and a third-rank squire......

In fact, with Xiao Chen's merits and current position, he should have been given the title of Shangshu, but if that was the case, Xiao Chen would be directly on an equal footing with the six Shangshu.

This kid is already very arrogant in the sixth part, if he seals the Shangshu, then he can't play until he flies?

"The title of squire is a bit too small." Li Wanjiang said with a smile, "Xiao Aiqing is already a first-class eunuch, and it is not very compliant to add a squire, so simply add the title of Shangshu." ”

Thank you, Lord Longne!

In fact, this is also Li Wanjiang and Chen Wenqi singing to the big guys, especially Xiao Chen, Chen Wenqi first proposed a waiter, and Li Wanjiang added a book, so that it doesn't seem to be the emperor's grace, and you Xiao Chen have to be grateful, right?

It's all routines, and Xiao Chen understands in his heart that he has to continue.

"Jiangdong King Li Shi suggested that the eighteen states of Yanyun County be reduced to nine state capitals, Xiao Chen, what do you think?" Li Wanjiang asked Xiao Chen's opinion.

"The minister thinks what the prince said is very true, in fact, Yanyun County is now eighteen states in name, but in fact, the establishment is idle, just there is a state shelf, but no one does anything, and the bloated institution is a disadvantage, which not only wastes the food and salary of our court, but also leads to floating people, too many redundant personnel, complicated procedures, and unfavorable work."

Of course Xiao Chen agreed, this was originally what he meant.

"If it is reduced to nine states, then the specifications of the state officials will also need to be one level higher, and I think they will perform the duties of the state officials according to the treatment of the four ranks of the prefect." Li Wanjiang paused and said, "Your governor of Changshan Prefecture can also be sealed by one level, so that it will be easier to manage in the future." ”

"The minister obeys the order, the emperor, there is one thing that must be told to the emperor, Liu Cong, the former governor of Changshan Prefecture, said that the two of Liu Tianlong who were guarding the city opened the city to surrender to the enemy, although the crime is unforgivable, but it is also excusable, these two people have all the ability to do things, and they are also more familiar with the situation in Yanyun County, so the minister still wants to continue to use them, and ask the emperor for permission." Xiao Chen said.

"I also know these two people, you can consider it yourself, in the future, the appointment and dismissal of officials in Yanyun County will all be ...... by you Aiqing" Before Li Wanjiang could say anything, he heard Chen Wenqi and Wang Anbang coughing violently together, as if they were choking on tea.

got up again to apologize, and was rude in front of the minister, and he really deserved to die.

Xiao Chenxin said that if you are so special, you should be choked to death!

If you have something to say, if you have a fart, let it go, is it interesting for you to engage in this little action?

"It's all up to Xiao Chen, Aiqing, you can discuss with the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of War." Sure enough, Li Wanjiang's words changed sharply, and he withdrew the power of employment that he was going to give to Xiao Chen.

"Your Majesty, the minister came this time to bring a list of officials that has been drawn up, and there are more than 100 people above the seventh grade, these ministers all know and understand, but I am afraid that Chen Wenqi and Lu Jing will not recognize it, how can this be discussed? How long will it take to discuss? Xiao Chen made it clear that he was dissatisfied.

You have taken away all the special military power, and now you have to grab the power to appoint and dismiss local officials, if you don't even have such a little power to employ people, then what else can the governor of the special Lao Tzu do?

"Lord Xiao, the appointment and dismissal of officials is an extremely important matter, it is related to the survival of the local people, the rise and fall of the economy, but it is not allowed to be sloppy, and the appointment and removal of our officials are strictly regulated, just like the two you said just now, according to the law of the Great Zhou, but you re-activated, this is very inappropriate!" The new Zuodu Yushi Zhou Weichu said.

"Don't talk about reactivation, even if you want to keep them innocent, I think it can only be used as a special case, otherwise in the face of enemy attacks in the future, won't the big guys have to open the city and surrender?" Chen Wenqi said.

"I heard that Lord Xiao, you entrusted the scrivener of White Dragon City with a heavy responsibility called Wen What, not only let him act as the chief bookkeeper of White Dragon City, but also put him in charge of mutual trade...... Is there such a thing? Xu Haiming, the servant of the ministry, directly questioned Xiao Chen.

"Oh, Lord Xu is talking about Wen Chengxu, right? I used to let him have the right to act as the chief bookkeeper, but now I have asked him to act as the agent of the position of the White Dragon City Straight Line, and yes, he is also in charge of the mutual market, I personally appointed him, and now I want to appoint him as the governor of Yanbei Prefecture, what's wrong? Xiao Chen said.

"Hehe, Lord Xiao, don't you know that he is just a showman? And it is also a showman of the previous dynasty, a showman has no qualifications to be the master bookkeeper at all, let alone do what to do Zhizhou, this is a violation! Xu Haiming sneered.

"Before, the imperial court also appointed Zhizhou and Zhixian, they are all Jinshi and first, protΓ©gΓ©s of the Son of Heaven, but I ask you where are they now? Where were the Xian cavalry when they attacked their prefectures? Where were the people when they were displaced, starved to death? Xiao Chen said coldly.

"Lord Xu, you haven't been to Yanyun County, have you? Have you been to all the eighteen states of Yanyun? Do you know what's going on there? Do you know how the common people live? How much do you know about what those officials and lords did there? Or do you know nothing? ”

"I might as well tell you directly, it's just four words, the people are not happy! Don't tell me anything about violating the system or not, I know that being an official will benefit one party, not a disaster! The situation in Yanyun County is so bad that it is they who have caused trouble! ”

"You said that Xiucai can't be a state official, so I'm just a lifter, and I am also a lifter in the previous dynasty, but I haven't made it a second-grade governor? This is still sealed by the emperor himself, Lord Wu Hongchang, the governor of Jiangnan County, was just a master of money and grain before, isn't it also the governor of the second grade, and he is also sealed by the emperor himself, are we all violating the system? ”

"I also know, it turns out that your officials are coming for me! I'm a straight person, you don't have to go around such a big bend with me, can't I just resign? ”

Xiao Chen lost his temper, if it weren't for the emperor here, he might have to slap the table, but he was not angry, and his face turned red.

"Lord Xiao is angry, our officials don't mean that." Wang Anbang came forward to persuade again.

"Even if you have this meaning, it's useless!" Xiao Chen said again, "I, the second-rank governor, was appointed by the emperor, if I don't take the initiative to resign, what can you adults do to me?" ”

After that, he got up and talked directly to Li Wanjiang, "Your Majesty, today's minister will officially resign from the governor of Yanyun County and all other positions in front of the big guys, and then go home to recuperate!" ”

Xiao Chen is really angry, especially you are clearly trying to empty the governor of Lao Tzu, this is, the governor of Lao Tzu is still a fart!

Go to the, I'm gone!
