The new emperor is finally about to hold his first court meeting since he ascended the throne
And the current officials are also different in their minds.
Some of the hard-working people who are not as good as the old are worried about not having the opportunity to express their dissatisfaction to the emperor. After all, the emperor is in the harem and they are far from reaching.
But now the emperor is going to hold a meeting and use them. Naturally, they are called sick and sick. Most of the people who refuse to give up are not here to court.
There are deadly tough guys, and naturally there are also scheming people. These people don’t care who the emperor marrys as their wives. As long as they can be promoted and made money, they will fall in love with the wind.
But in the end, most officials are still in a wait-and-see state. Although most of them do not understand Li Que's behavior, they will not resist to the end. In the end, it depends on what methods Li Que uses next to win people's hearts and firmly sit in the throne of the emperor.
……
In the Hall of Supreme Harmony, Li Que looked at the large empty space under the steps with an angry face, frowned
If these beloved ministers who have not come here do not like court so much, I will give them mercy and let them all retire and return home so that they can go back and enjoy the peace and happiness. Li Que said in a deep voice
As soon as this said, there was a commotion under the jade stairs. The ministers whispered for a while before a censor came out and reported to Li Que in fear: Your Majesty, calm down. Although these ministers are wrong, now that Your Majesty has ascended the throne, it is time for people to work hard to promote the government. If these loyal ministers are missing, the court will be really difficult to deal with!
It is because of Your Majesty’s actions after His Majesty ascended the throne, and there are many criticisms. If these ministers are arbitrarily fired, I am afraid that the scholars in the world will be dissatisfied with Your Majesty because of this!
Seeing someone start, a gray-haired old man immediately came out of the civil officials. Li Que glanced at him and said that the person was named Tang Gao, and he was one of the ministers who opposed Li Que's birth mother as the queen.
Humph, why, Tang Aiqing, do you mean that the fault of this matter will eventually be with me? Li Que said coldly
The emperor showed signs of anger, and the hall was silent immediately, but the old man was really tough. Not only did he not give in, but he said with his head: If Your Majesty can recognize his mistakes, it is naturally the best thing to know that he is the emperor, and he also needs to rely on virtuous people to govern the country. If Your Majesty does not want to lose the hearts of the scholars in the world, he should follow the good deeds. If the Empress can give up the position of the queen and retreat to Cining Palace as the queen mother...
Enough!
Seeing that he was getting more and more excited when he talked, Li Que was so angry that he punched him on the table. Tang Gao, Tang Gao, I think you really have too high regard for yourself. Do you think you can really represent the scholars in the world?
Although Weichen is a little talented and knowledgeable, he is still somewhat influential among the scholars in Daliang. Tang Gaoran said arrogantly
So what Tang Aiqing meant is that even if the "recruitment order" I want to issue now, wouldn't it be exchanged for the eager allegiance of talented people in the world? Li Que glared at the old man for a while and suddenly asked back
The old man was stunned and did not react to what Li Que was going to say.
I announce that from now on, I will recruit talents from all over the world, breaking the usual limit on the imperial examination. Talented people in the world, regardless of their family background or previous imperial examination levels, can participate in the examination. I will convene a grand sect to discuss the examination. The examination will be scheduled to be held in the spring of next year. I will order the Ministry of Personnel to be fully responsible and will be carried out simultaneously in the counties and counties in Daliang. The best ones will come to Beijing to receive my personal examination. My dear friends, what do you think this move?
The officials present were all smart, and they immediately understood Li Que's intention of this move after a change of mind.
Although the Daliang Dynasty also had imperial examinations, the concept of family status was concentrated, and the selection of talents was often controlled by the prestigious large families or literati factions in the local area. If the emperor could really intervene in organizing a nationwide recruitment activity, it would definitely be very passionate for poor students.
In this way, they will naturally stop criticizing Li Que's previous actions that are somewhat disobedient to human relations.
After all, these things are just a scholar's mouth
The scholars who were still cursing the emperor's incest at the last moment, if they really got the opportunity to be promoted, they would probably immediately say that these were irrelevant little virtues, and then praise the emperor's great virtues who chose the wise and were concerned about the people.
Eating soft but not hard is a common problem among scholars since ancient times. If the superiors show a little low posture, they can easily gain a good reputation.
At this time, many officials present praised Li Que for his cleverness. Just such a simple measure could greatly restore his reputation among scholars
Although this will also face the rebound of those wealthy families and prominent families after being touched by interests, it is more important for Li Que to restore his reputation at this time, and this is a trade-off.
Your Majesty's move may need to be thought twice. The original selection system of our dynasty is enough to provide talents to the court. Why should you?... At this time, although Gao Tang realized Li Que's cleverness, he still subconsciously continued to dissuade him and was immediately interrupted by Li Que's roughly.
Gao Aiqing, I think you are old and you are a little overwhelmed in the court. Just live in the same old age as your colleagues! Li Que waved his hand impatiently
After saying that, he no longer looked at the unwilling soup, and continued to throw out more countermeasures he had made with Chen Ying all night in the past two days.
Reduce and exempt people's land tax, salt and wine tax... exempt from corvee labor for three years...
Rewards for soldiers in the army...
These series of measures are ultimately from all walks of life, such as Huili ordinary people, soldiers, etc., because these people are most vulnerable to local forces.
The people and soldiers don’t care who you marry as the queen. As long as they live well, they can get the benefits in their hands, who is willing to rebel?
Now the officials in the hall were completely convinced. Only then did they realize that the new emperor Li Que was not just a debauchery monarch. Maybe he was indeed lustful, but he really understood how to maintain his rule.
In this way, those who had all kinds of small thoughts finally felt a little calmer
In addition, I have prepared a list here, which was proposed by me and the Grand Marshal to fill the list of vacancies for the ministers after discussion. This will be handed over to the Ministry of Personnel for review. If there is no major problem, please arrange it as soon as possible
Li Que calmly passed on a list to the Minister of Personnel, and many of the surname Su appeared at the key position of this list. These were the candidates Su Yuexin recommended to Li Que, and it was also Li Que's measures to further strengthen his control over the court.
Tsk, Lord Dong, our Majesty dares to take the big picture of the world, not only has extraordinary courage, but also extraordinary wisdom!
After the meeting, several officials gathered around Dong Xiuzhu and sighed.
After this court meeting, Li Que temporarily stabilized the court, and it seems that if he continues to govern with his method, the public opinion will soon calm down.
The speaker just sighed a few words, but the listener felt uncomfortable
In fact, Dong Xiuzhu came to court today to see how embarrassed Li Que was in the face of this vacancy in the court. It could be considered a small vent of resentment in his heart.
But unexpectedly, Li Que's series of measures stabilized the situation.
He was timid by nature, but at this moment he had a little thought of giving up again
But when he thought of his plump and beautiful wife's lewd posture of being happy under the emperor's crotch, all his cringe disappeared in an instant, and the dignity of a man overwhelmed everything.
The foolish lord, I, Dong Xiuzhu, will not let you do whatever you want!
He thought angrily
At the same time, he also knew in his heart that the plan he conspired with Fu Feipeng was going to speed up. If Li Que had gained a firm foothold, it would be too late to do anything
And the current officials are also different in their minds.
