Chapter 60 Appointment of Cabinet Members
Li Mao picked up the edict and looked through it carefully.
There is no difference between the above content and what I said yesterday, and I am relieved.
He was really worried that the two prime ministers would secretly revise part of the content in the edict.
"Zhao Gao, you come and read it to the ministers."
Li Mao casually handed the edict behind him.
"Fengtian carries the emperor, and the edict says: ......"
Zhao Gao had known the content for a long time, so he read it extremely smoothly.
An edict of nearly 10,000 words, he read it in just a quarter of an hour.
In the middle of his reading of the edict, many ministers wanted to ask questions out loud, but they were all forced to retreat by Li Mao's fierce eyes.
It wasn't until Zhao Gao finished reading that the minister who had endured for a long time finally had the opportunity to stand up.
"Your Majesty, think twice!"
"Your Majesty, this is the government of the country!"
"Your Majesty, the ancestral system cannot be changed without authorization!"
Of the more than a dozen ministers present, none of them agreed.
A small number of people directly spoke out against it, and more than half of the people looked at their noses and noses, and they had an attitude of indifference at all.
Li Mao took it all into her eyes.
Those who don't care must not be reused.
When such an important policy was announced, they were silent, apparently with other plans.
Either they want to escape secretly, and then go to Luoyang to join Li Longji.
Either they plan to secretly report to Li Longji.
Thinking of this, Li Mao glanced at Wei Zhongxian, who was standing aside.
Wei Zhongxian immediately nodded in response, and waved his hand knife at the silent ministers.
"I have made up my mind, you Aiqing don't need to say more."
"At this time when the world is in turmoil, a fierce medicine is needed to renew the life of the imperial court."
"As for the outcome, I can bear it."
"If there are really rebels who capture Chang'an, you just surrender directly, and I will never blame you."
"However, as long as I am still in power for a day, you must do things honestly, and anyone who dares to disobey the yang and the yin, I will never let go."
At this point, Li Mao's voice became extremely sharp.
A chill rose in the hearts of all the ministers standing below.
It's a bad star.
If you say that you will kill someone, you will kill someone, and you will never be soft.
With Li Mao returning to the city overnight, the things he did in Tongguan had already spread in Chang'an City.
Killing, beheading, disembowelment, burning, the world can think of killing methods, Li Mao used almost once in Tongguan.
Today, the officials in Chang'an City have begun to call him a tyrant.
Li Mao naturally didn't know yet.
Even if you know about it, you won't take it to heart.
The Ming Jun he wants to be is the Ming Jun recognized among the people, not the Ming Jun as the courtiers think.
"Alright, since you all have no opinions, then I will announce the next personnel appointments."
"Li Linfu was appointed as the first assistant minister of the Tang Cabinet, and the official residence is a good product."
"Appoint Xiao Song as the deputy auxiliary minister of the Tang Cabinet, and the official residence is from the first grade."
"Shengping Lu Jiedu made Wu Zhiyi an auxiliary minister of the Tang Cabinet, and the official residence is the second grade."
"Shenghedong Jiedu made Wang Yu an auxiliary minister of the Tang Cabinet, and the official residence is the second grade."
"Wang Zhonghe, the deputy envoy of Shengshuo Fangjiedu, is an auxiliary minister of the Tang Cabinet, and the official residence is the second grade."
"Shenghexi Jiedu makes Xiao Jiong an auxiliary minister of the Tang Cabinet, and the official residence is the second grade."
"Shenglong right section degree makes Huangfu Weiming an auxiliary minister of the Tang Cabinet, and the official residence is the second grade."
"Ascending to Fan Yang Jie Du makes Zhang Shouqi an auxiliary minister of the Tang Cabinet, and the official residence is the second grade."
"Shengjian Nanjiedu made Li Shangyin an auxiliary minister of the Tang Cabinet, and the official residence is the second grade."
"Shengling Lingjie makes Zhang Jiuzhang an auxiliary minister of the Tang Cabinet, and the official residence is the second grade."
As soon as the appointment came out, all the officials in the Xuanzheng Hall were stunned.
It's almost a feast for the festival.
If they can accept the appointment, they will be able to change from a border general to a central prime minister.
But Li Mao knows that there should not be many people who accept the appointment, and there may not be anyone to the end.
Under this appointment, the person who benefited the most was Li Linfu.
His previous official position was the Zhengsanpin Zhongshu Order, and after only one reform of the system, he became a member of the Zhengyipin, the same level as the prince and the princess.
You must know that this level was previously only promoted by ministers of Zhishi, and the highest level of incumbent officials could only be promoted to the first rank.
"Your Majesty, is the official rank of the first assistant set too high? What if the first assistant minister makes a contribution in the future? ”
Suddenly, there were people who did not understand this policy and came forward to ask.
"What if you make a contribution?" Li Mao asked coldly, "Then why don't you ask the first assistant minister what to do if he can't make a result?" ”
These are the official standard thinking is too strong.
I didn't think it clearly at all, this official was asked by the emperor to be the emperor, and he could be the one.
"The farmer's job is farming, the businessman's job is to do business, the soldier's job is to march and fight, and the soldier's job is to study hard."
"Then what should you tell me about the job of being an official?"
"Shouldn't I be worried?"
"Shouldn't we seek survival and development for the people of the world?"
"The first auxiliary minister is already a very popular minister, it can be said that one person is under ten thousand people, if this is not good, then what qualifications does he have to serve as the first auxiliary minister?"
"The first assistant minister has made a contribution, isn't that what he should do in this position?"
Under Li Mao's continuous questioning, the ministers in the palace were sweating.
They knew that it would be more and more difficult to get in the DPRK and China in the future.
After all, the emperor had just made the problem very clear.
That is, don't be a mediocre official who can't find things to do all day long!
No one in the temple dared to answer aloud.
Seeing this, Li Mao was even more unlikely to let them go easily.
"Establish a heart for heaven and earth, establish a life for the people, continue to learn for the saints, and open peace for all generations."
"This is what I heard from a poor scholar when I was in Tongguan."
"At that time, this scholar was unclothed and thin, but he was still holding a book of Analects and reading hard."
"I stepped forward and asked him, you can't even eat, why do you study so hard?"
"These are the four words he said at the time."
"I hope that you will keep these four sentences in your hearts and spread them at the same time, so that all scholars in the world can understand the goal of studying."
After Li Mao finished speaking, there was a commotion in the hall.
None of these ministers could have such high ambitions.
Every time they silently recite these four words in their hearts, their blood will rise, as if they are back at the age of twenty.
"Your Majesty, what is this person's name? Where is this time? Li Linfu immediately asked.
"Such a talent, if he participates in next year's imperial examination, His Majesty must take him as the champion!" Xiao Song also followed suit.
At this time, both of them seem to have become people who are willing to promote the juniors.
It's just that Li Mao instantly saw through their thoughts, and it was nothing more than seeing that she liked it, and deliberately said it to pat herself.
"I was so busy fighting that I didn't ask in detail, and when I asked the soldiers to look for them, I couldn't find anyone."
After Li Mao finished speaking, he deliberately showed a sense of disappointment that he had missed talents.
