Chapter 262: The right to speak

Lu Chen has always been extremely incompatible with the officialdom of Great Xia, both in terms of his style of acting and his concept of being an official.

As an official in Great Xia, especially those in high positions, most of them will consider all aspects clearly, the city government is very deep, and if there is merit, they will make money, and if they can avoid risks, they must be people and do things, at least they must take themselves out, and they must not let their careers be affected.

Otherwise, it is better to do nothing than make mistakes.

But Lu Chen came completely the other way around.

There is a black cauldron, he is more active than anyone else, he has made meritorious contributions, and he runs faster than anyone else.

It's also his style all along.

The same is true when he was in the Tiangong Division, as long as the R&D project passed the audit, the first responsible person will always be Lu Chen, if the R&D is in trouble and there is a huge risk of being lost, he will stand up to face the doubts and bear the consequences alone, and as long as the R&D is successful, he will desperately show the empress to others and not say a word about his own efforts.

With such a boss, which subordinate would not love him from the bottom of his heart?

At this time, Su Ning and Liyue, who were the second and third leaders of the Tiangong Division, both looked at Lu Chen fixedly, their eyes full of brilliance.

Lu Chen smiled bitterly in his heart, but his face was impassive.

"Your Majesty praised falsely, Wechen just told the truth, the land of the two states, since Wechen stepped down as the governor of the two states, he has not interfered in local political affairs, but I believe that Fang Yu They can do better than the previous mediocre officials, this real political achievement, and Wechen has nothing to do with it, it is the result of their due diligence and concerted efforts, not the credit of Wechen, Wechen is ashamed to take the lead, and please Your Majesty Don't embarrass Wechen."

Having said this, Jiang Chengwan had no choice but to sigh helplessly.

"Well, I remember this credit in my heart."

Hearing this, Lu Chen suddenly breathed a heavy sigh of relief.

"Thank you for your understanding."

Jiang Chengwan shook her head.

"If there is merit, it will be rewarded, if there is a punishment, the reward and punishment are clear, Fang is the way of the Ming Jun, Lu Qing, how do you think I should reward Fang Yu and other outstanding officialdom rookies?"

The economic growth rate is the first in the country, such a dazzling political achievement, even if Fang Yu and others are just halfway out of the house to catch the ducks on the shelf, the imperial court must also say something, at least the word "agent" that does not enter the stream will definitely be removed.

With his dazzling political achievements, coupled with the foundation of Lu Chen's protΓ©gΓ© and the generals of the Cangming Saint King's lineage, he is absolutely loyal, and it is difficult for Fang Yu and the others not to be promoted.

Even if they don't come from the right path.

If Jiang Chengwan was really a rigid emperor who followed the rules, it would be impossible for Lu Chen to be in a high position in his early twenties.

As soon as Jiang Chengwan's words fell, everyone looked at Lu Chen in unison.

Especially Zhou He, the left waiter of the new ministry, and Chen Pingzhi, the right waiter, frowned at the same time at this time.

Great Xia stretches for thousands of years, and there is a complete set of processes and evaluation systems for the promotion and debasement of officials, which is logically under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Officials, which is why the Ministry of Officials has extremely heavy powers, and the Ministry of Officials is even called the Heavenly Official, and even the reason why they can wrestle with the scholars of the Three Pavilions.

But now, the empress passed them and directly asked Lu Chen about Fang Yu and the others' promotion opinions.

completely ignored the left and right attendants who are now the heads of the ministry.

It's as if he, Lu Chen, is the secretary of the ministry.

This is obviously a rather dangerous signal.

Although the position of the secretary of the ministry is still high, and Zhou He and Chen Pingzhi are still nominally only the left and right servants of the three products, but under the premise of not setting up the secretary of the ministry, they should be asked about the affairs of the ministry.

Where did you get Lu Chen, the last of the six nominal Ministry of Works?

So the two of them turned their heads and looked at Yan Song, with a hint of inquiry in their eyes.

However, Yan Song only shook his head at them cryptically, signaling them to be calm.

Yan Ge Lao said that although they were resentful of the empress's attitude of ignoring the officials of the ministry, they still clenched their fists and endured it.

Lu Chen was also a little speechless.

What's wrong? The living buddies of the Ministry of Officials also have to do both, right?

How many jobs do you do for one salary?

Secretly complained to himself, he didn't refute anything, but thought about it for a while, and then said: "The demon queen has been chaotic for six years, which has had a great impact on the country, and many provinces are still in a miasma, and they urgently need to change the status quo." ”

As soon as these words came out, many people's faces immediately changed.

"Lu Shangshu, what do you mean?"

In Chen Pingzhi's voice, there was an inexplicable trace of trill.

Jiang Chengwan seemed to suddenly think of something, and a gleam quietly flashed in her eyes.

Lu Chen glanced at Chen Ping, and said lightly: "Sui and Yu Prefectures are now thriving, and a prosperous scene is enough to prove their ability to govern, and now is the time to employ people, there are many vacancies in the local government, and even for the sake of the overall situation, they have to turn a blind eye to some mediocre officials who are not out of line. ”

Rumble!

These words were like a thunderclap on the ground, and they instantly caused an uproar in everyone's hearts.

"This"

Zhou He's eyes trembled slightly.

"Lu Shangshu, this is not appropriate. Although they are indeed very good, but the governance should be adapted to local conditions, according to the situation, the situation in each place is different, suitable for Yuzhou's decree, maybe leaving Yuzhou will not adapt to the soil and water, if you copy the original experience, maybe it will have the opposite result. ”

"It's better to think about this matter in the long run."

"Huh"

Lu Chen smiled very subtly.

"Zhou Shilang, haven't you forgotten, Fang Yu and they were all excellent generals of Xuanwuwei before they entered politics, they know better than anyone the truth of the impermanence of soldiers and the impermanence of water, they can govern one side from scratch, how can they lack the ability to adapt to changes? Do you think they are those mediocre officials who cling to their cripples? ”

After a pause, he added: "I believe that they will be able to govern all localities in an orderly manner as they govern the counties of the two states, so that the local people can live a good life." ”

"Of course, if you don't feel at ease, the official can guarantee them, and if something goes wrong, the official is fully responsible and will never evade!"

The moment the words fell, Zhou He and Chen Pingzhi couldn't help but look pale.

The two looked at each other, relatively silent.

Lu Chen has already reached such a point, and he is willing to gamble his rich political capital to guarantee Fang Yu and the others, what else can they do?

However, if we do not stop those "Mainland Party" who are obviously flaunting the banner of the New Deal and have already achieved certain results in going to the provinces to take up important posts, will they still have a peaceful day in Shilin if they continue for a long time?

Look at the situation in Yuzhou and Suizhou today!

After Lu Chen's several sweeps, even a top royal family like King Sui had to be a man with his tail between his legs, not to mention others.

Not only was the original officialdom of the two states dead silent, but many century-old families disappeared completely, after Fang Yu and others came to power, the wealthy families were even more wailing, completely collapsed, and now there is no voice at all, only those dispensable ordinary people are singing praises and singing about the prosperous era.

If this kind of alien who is eager for chaos in the world is dispersed to the provincial secrets, and with the support of Lu Chen, the most powerful alien in the history of Great Xia, it is conceivable how much chaos it will cause.

Although they are in the court, their foundation is not in the division, if those scourges are transferred to their hometown, and the backyard is on fire, the consequences are simply unimaginable.

Unwillingly, the two looked at Yan Song at the same time, hoping that the head of the civil official would fight for them.

However, for only a moment, they withdrew their gaze in disappointment.

The Dinghai Divine Needle of the civil official group is still the same as always, except for a look that makes them feel a little calm, he does not say anything, as steady as an old dog, as if nothing in the world can leave a ripple in his heart.

In an eerie silence, the resolution passed without question.

In fact, even if they opened their mouths to stop it, it didn't make any sense, after all, this was Lu Chen's advice.

Since Jiang Chengwan's pro-government, Lu Chen's advice has hardly been unpassed.

Don't ask, ask is quasi-playing.

Although Liu Dongyang and others feel that it is a bit excessive, dozens of acting county orders are all raised, at least they are also prefects and Tongzhi, such a large-scale personnel change is bound to cause a lot of turmoil.

With their habit of seeking stability in everything, no matter how well Fang Yu and the others behave, the promotion should be gradual.

If it were someone else who came up with such radical admonitions, they designated to stand up and say a few words, but . The person who proposed it was Lu Chen, so that's another story.

It's not that they are afraid of Lu Chen's power, nor that they have a good personal relationship with Lu Chen, but because Lu Chen is too evil.

Every time he makes a puzzling and amazing move, the end result is often unexpected.

In their opinion, since Lu Chen is so sure, there should be some deep considerations in it that they don't understand, since this is the case, then let him go, lest he finally prove that Lu Chen is right and give them a slap in the face.

"In that case, let's draw up the purpose."

Jiang Chengwan said very decisively: "In addition to the candidates for promotion to the prefects of the two states, all the acting officials of the two states will be summoned to Beijing immediately, and the official department will draw up a roster as soon as possible." ”

The left and right servants of the officials reluctantly raised their hands and arched towards Jiang Chengwan:

"Wechen obeys."

After the two of them were dismissed, Wu Yue continued to report on last year's financial revenue and expenditure.

It was very long, and Wu Yue spoke for half an hour before he finished explaining the details of the finances of the Great Xia Empire.

Overall, everything is good.

No matter what Jiang Chengwan's considerations were for reusing Lu Chen, the political achievements that Lu Chen gave back to her after taking power were obviously enough to prove that her choice was correct and wise.

After the financial situation is reported, the next thing to discuss is the issue of this year's expenditure budget of various ministries.

Although the budget declaration had already been submitted to the Ministry of Household and the Three Pavilions, no matter how good the financial situation of Great Xia was, it was impossible to give as much as the declaration.

There is only so much silver in the treasury that this department needs more, and the others need less.

This is the highlight of whether the ministries can live a relaxed life this year, so when Wu Yue stepped back and Jiang Chengwan let everyone speak freely, many courtiers were all pale, and some even subconsciously glanced in the direction of Lu Chen.

They all knew very well that although in terms of budget, Wu Yue and Sange's bachelors had the most important voice, Lu Chen's attitude could not be ignored.

It can even be said that Lu Chen is a vital part.

If he didn't agree, even if Wu Yue and Yan Song both passed, it would be useless.

Maybe if Lu Chen intends to spend most of the budget on the Ministry of Industry, the empress will agree.

Now Lu Chen's right to speak is so outrageous.
