Chapter 439: The Emperor's Election of Officials is a major reshuffle, Changyi's cronies are in real power, and the first emperor's important ministers are all in the air!

"Zhang Anshi, Bingji, Wei Xian, Liu De, Wei Xiang, Han Zeng, Zhao Chongguo, these seven Aiqing are Shiquge University Scholars, Zhang Anshi is the Chief University Scholar, and the Consul General is the Governor."

There are not too many surprises in the selection of courtiers to enter the cabinet, these seven people are all courtiers who have been in the limelight in the past six months, and it is not an exaggeration to describe them as hot.

As soon as Liu He's words fell, these seven people came to the hall from different positions in His Royal Highness, knelt down and fell down in front of the jade steps, and thanked the Son of Heaven for receiving the decree.

From this moment on, the cabinet officially replaced the Shangshu Department and became the new power hub of the Han Empire.

Compared with the original Shangshu Administration, the cabinet has more people, is closer to the Son of Heaven, and has greater responsibilities.

Of course, there will probably be no less fighting between scholars.

In that year, half of the four or five auxiliary ministers appointed by Emperor Xiaowu were killed, and these seven cabinet scholars did not know how many would die.

Liu He looked at them and felt a lot of emotion in his heart, the court was indeed a hungry beast.

"Ladies and gentlemen, be even, you will suffer in the future." Liu He said.

"Wechen will be exhausted and dull, and he will never give up!" The seven scholars bowed down again, and it was only after the Son of Heaven had said that they had finally stood up.

The eyes of the rest of the courtiers followed them all the way back to the couch, and then reluctantly took it back.

Of course, there is envy in this gaze, but there is also some schadenfreude.

Although these people have entered the cabinet, it also means that their original official positions in foreign courts have been completely deprived.

Now that the Son of Heaven wants to change the law and implement a new policy, it is better to enter the cabinet or stay in the foreign court, and there is really no conclusive conclusion.

It didn't take long for the envy and schadenfreude on the faces of the courtiers to subside, and they looked at the Son of Heaven again.

Together with the official positions that were originally vacant, there are now more vacant official positions, and they are being replaced layer by layer, and the possibility of being able to take a step forward is extremely high.

"After the seven Aiqing entered the cabinet, there will be a lot of vacancies for the governors of the two mansions, and I will appoint them together today, you Aiqing have no objections, right?"

Liu He was still kind and pleasant when he spoke, but where did anyone dare to stand up and say a "no"?

The three dukes have all been deposed, and the Shangshu Department has also been abolished, who else dares to stand up and find unhappiness?

"Weiyang Guard Captain Wang Ji was transferred to the Great Sima and Weiyang Guard."

"Tingwei Huang Ba transferred to the Imperial Doctor."

"Changyi Zhonglang transferred Gong Sui to Guangluxun and Changle Guard."

"The edict ordered Chen Xiu to be transferred to the court lieutenant."

"Su Wuren is too often."

"The Imperial Horse Supervisor Fu Jiezi is the Great Honglu."

"Captain Cheng Gongyu of Shui Heng is qualified to be the chief farmer and lieutenant of Shui Heng."

"Da Honglu Wei Xuancheng was transferred to Shaofu."

"Zong Zhengcheng Liu Anmin was promoted to Zongzheng."

Zhang Anshi, who had just returned to sit on the couch, listened to these names and suddenly found that none of them came from the list he had submitted.

These nine people, together with the servants Xue Ti and Zhijin Wu Anle, who did not move in place, almost all of the "eleven chief officials" of the two mansions of Jiuqing have become the deceased of the Son of Heaven.

These "deceased people of the Son of Heaven" are different from the former ministers of the former dynasty such as Zhang Anshi and Bingji, and they have a closer relationship with the Son of Heaven.

They were either the old officials of the Changyi State, or the people recruited by the Son of Heaven after he arrived in Chang'an, or the people who were reactivated at the hands of the Son of Heaven.

Zhang Anshi, Bingji and others were already in high positions before the Son of Heaven came to Chang'an, and they were all former ministers of the "first emperor" of the previous dynasty.

Among these dozen people, only Liu De's son, Liu Anmin, does not have much friendship with the Son of Heaven.

The Son of Heaven really sees far away, and the purpose of the division of the Chinese and foreign officials is actually here.

In this way, the new pattern of the Han Dynasty was set.

The officials of the Chinese Dynasty who entered the cabinet were mainly courtiers left behind by Emperor Xiaozhao, and the officials of the two prefectures of the outer dynasties were mainly courtiers promoted by the Son of Heaven himself.

One inside and one outside, forming a clear division.

On the surface, at least, both the old minister and the new man were exalted.

But for some reason, Zhang Anshi was a little unhappy.

Although he has entered the cabinet, and he is still the chief scholar who is one head above the other university scholars, the cabinet has never heard of it after all, so he is still a little nervous and confused.

Compared with this nervousness and confusion, Zhang Anshi is more confused, and there is one more thing he can't understand.

The Son of Heaven has made such a big change, why didn't he and the other courtiers even get any news?

This cabinet system was unheard of before, but now just a cursory hearing shows that it will be very complicated when it actually works.

For the Son of Heaven to launch this system with lightning speed, there must be a group of people who are planning this matter.

Since it is a group of people, it can't be just one or two people, at least five or six people.

With so many people involved, and they have to keep entering this Weiyang Palace, it is impossible for him and Bingji not to have any news.

After all, before today, Bingji was the Guangluxun in office, who was responsible for the dispatch of the southern army and the northern army, and was closely related to the matter of the palace ban and guards.

Unless the person who gives advice to the Son of Heaven can fly the eaves and walk the wall, it will never be possible to escape Zhang Anshi's eyes.

So, will the person who gives advice to the Son of Heaven be the old man who is already in the court?

Zhang Anshi, who was full of suspicions, glanced back and forth in the front hall a few times, but he didn't see anything unusual.

Is it Huang Ba and Wei Xiang? They also don't seem to know anything about it.

Is it an old official of Changyi? They are also ordinary people, and they don't seem to have such talents.

Is it the official of the Son of Heaven? They only bury their heads in the engineering officers and rarely show their faces.

If it wasn't planned by these people in private, then who else could have come up with this cabinet system?

Suddenly, Zhang Anshi's gaze drifted to the feet of the Son of Heaven, and he thought of a possibility.

Could it be that all of this was thought up by the Son of Heaven alone?

The Son of Heaven was able to invent Xuan wine, rice paper, gunpowder, sealing, horseshoes, horse shoes, frying steel, and all kinds of new agricultural tools......

originally had a seven-pronged exquisite heart that was completely different from ordinary people.

Maybe this seven-trick exquisite heart not only has various secret methods, but also has a court system such as the cabinet system?

Thinking of this pass, Zhang Anshi immediately shuddered!

Emperor Xiaowu was scheming and suspicious by nature, and he was also obsessed with power, and he was best at controlling people's hearts in the court.

But even if it was him, the establishment of the system between China and North Korea was not achieved overnight.

And now the Son of Heaven is only nineteen years old, he has only been on the throne for half a year, and he has only been in power for a few months, so can this skill of playing with the power of the court be so superb?

Where is this compared to chasing Emperor Xiaowu, it is already far more than Emperor Xiaowu.

There is such an emperor who is obsessed with power, is it a blessing or a curse for the Han Dynasty?

It was impossible for Zhang Anshi, who was sitting on the couch, to figure out this question in a short period of time, while the Son of Heaven was still announcing the positions of other courtiers on the jade steps without any waves.

Jian Kou served as the general of Changyi Zhonglang, Ruan Yang served as the general of Yulin Zhonglang, Liu Yi served as the pedestrian of Dahonglu, Zhang Wuji served as the edict of prison, and Han De served as the general of Zhonglang of the period......

The official positions and ranks of these people are much lower, and the highest is no more than a thousand stones, but now that they are appointed by the Son of Heaven himself, you can see the trust in them.

And the most surprising are naturally young people such as Liu Aiji, Ruan Yang and Han De, whose rank seems to have risen too quickly, and it seems that they are not synthetic.

Zhang Anshi wanted to stand up and admonish that the promotion of the Son of Heaven violated the system, but before he could speak, he remembered that his position as the chief scholar had not yet been secured.

Who is qualified to advise?

There are too many things happening in the court today, and after the court is dispersed, we must quickly invite Bingji and them to their home to discuss how to deal with them after a good discussion.

This is the characteristic of the sole rule of the Son of Heaven, and one sentence can break the established system. Without the "prime minister" to restrain it, the Son of Heaven naturally does whatever he wants.

This is not a simple thing for the big man, but it is a good thing.

Zhang Anshi was still thinking nonsense, and the Son of Heaven had finally appointed and dismissed all the officials he wanted.

"As for the other vacant official positions, I can't think of a suitable candidate for the time being, and tomorrow I will ask the officials through the edict of Your Excellency."

It's not so much that he can't think of a suitable candidate, but that Liu He gave the inner and outer dynasties a chance to familiarize themselves with the new operation mode of the court.

Growing and learning in practice is the best effect.

After Liu He said this, he nodded to Fan Ke beside him.

The little attendant put down the pen in his hand and ran out of the hall in a bit of a panic.

In a short time, Fan Ke walked into the front hall with three or four officials, each of whom held a stack of freshly printed books in his hand.

"Fan Ke, send these books to your Aiqing's hands."

"No!"

The Son of Heaven likes to print books, and prefers to give books to courtiers: the one who received the most books from the Son of Heaven was naturally Huo Guang, who had just died.

The courtiers all knew that the Gongguan's printing workshop was printing books day and night, even during the Great Removal and New Year's Day.

They don't know what the Son of Heaven printed so many books for: how many people in the world can read it, not to mention that "the people can make it known, but not let it know".

So much so that many people are slandering this printed book for being a waste of money and labor.

Although the Son of Heaven often gave books to courtiers, it was the first time that he had given books to everyone at a court meeting.

The courtiers who got the book couldn't wait to look at the cover, and then they were all stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but sigh again: The Son of Heaven is thoughtful.
