Chapter 314: All parties promoted officials and nobles to show off
The white clouds in the sky passed by in the wind, the sun shone into Chengyun Hall, and the light and dust danced.
All the ministers in the palace were silent and looked at the emperor walking above with his hands behind his back. It was common for the new emperor to ascend the throne and overthrow some of the previous systems in a drastic way. Setting up the Xirong Chief Secretary showed the majesty of the Xia Kingdom, and the power radiated across the grassland. This is Good thing.
But internally, the newly promoted officials were frightened by the direct selection of officials through the imperial examination. After all, it was also related to the interests of the family behind them. In the future, the children of the clan could not rely on their recommendations. , got a place in the imperial examination, but studied five classics with ordinary scholars.
This puts the children of aristocratic families in the same position as the children of ordinary people.
This is the founder of the country. No one dares to take his head now, and the lives of his entire family are on the line. From King Xia to today, this new emperor has killed many bureaucrats and aristocratic families. The Jiang family is a descendant of the family, and they can follow him. He was imprisoned casually. If ordinary nobles were like this, the whole clan would probably be killed.
At this time, there was only one figure standing on the imperial steps in the entire hall, and Su Chen's voice continued to sound.
"I want to implement a new policy, not just empty words and lip service to you dear friends. The above three things must be implemented before July. Before winter, I want to see The initial effect is that if the family members behind you have any objections, you can find a way to hammer it out on your own. When the new official takes office, there are still three fires. When my new emperor takes office, there will be a lot of people. If I want to kill the people, they may become soft-hearted. But he has never been soft-hearted in killing aristocratic families."
The black cloud pattern walked on the imperial steps, and the sound of stepping gently struck the hearts of the ministers. Su Chen raised his hand on the dragon table. Knocked, the sound was low.
“Just as I said while standing on the Zen teaching platform, I want to recuperate, nourish the country and the people, and unify all the countries. This feat is witnessed by you and me, and created by our hands.”
< br>
On the Zen teaching platform, the civil and military officials present were shocked at first when they heard the emperor's words. Then many people were filled with excitement. It was really possible for them to witness this emperor who destroyed the Wei Kingdom and surrendered to Xirong at such a young age. Even the possibility of participating in the unification of the world.
If compared with the unification of the world that is rare in thousands of years, the imperial examination reform is really nothing.
"Do you have any objections, my dear friends?"
When Su Chen's voice sounded again, Chao Zhongwen and Wu all raised their eyes and looked at the majestic body standing on the golden palace, their Adam's apple rolled. , the voice became louder: "Your Majesty is wise!"
"Don't flatter me!"
Su Chen laughed, waved his dragon sleeves, and walked back to the golden throne with satisfaction and sat down. He looked beyond the crowd and looked at the bright spring sun outside the palace gate, saying: "Wang Yushi Lang is a master of Zhongjun Tiguo Jing, a man of virtue, talent, and prestige. , promoted to Situ, ranked third prince."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" The wrinkles on Wang Lang's face became even more wrinkled, and he bowed his hands happily. He was happier than the smile on his face, and his work was not in vain. , this is regarded as the restoration of the official position. This time he will have to stay in the position of Situ for a few more years.
Su Chen, who was sitting on the dragon chair, continued to say when the old man lowered his hands and straightened up: "I said before that I would change the Yan script into the Chinese script. Situ Zai was also the bachelor of Longteng Pavilion and the editor-in-chief of the Chinese script. We must promote private students and supervise the establishment of schools. "
This is the stage of awarding in the new dynasty. The civil and military officials in the palace listened attentively, and some officials hoped not to read their names. It would be better not to be promoted or demoted.
Here at the dragon chair, Su Chen asked the old man to return to the queue, raised his hand to take the pen and ink on the dragon table, and drew a tick on a piece of paper with the contents listed, which meant to settle something. pile of things to do.
His eyes then caught sight of the second thing, and the voice continued: "Zhang Yu!"
"I am here!"
Zhang Yu strode out of the queue of generals, stood straight in the middle of the hall, and led A cupped his fists and arched: "Please give me your Majesty's orders!"
"I want to build the Xirong Zhengfu Division and garrison five thousand troops. General Zhang is willing to go? Every two years, the general will not stay in the bitter cold land. Wait.”
“I am willing!”
Su Chen nodded and ticked off the second thing with his pen: "Promote Zhang Yu to the position of Governor of Xirong. He will station 5,000 troops to assist the people of the various tribes in Xirong. Organize 5,000 patrols of Xirong to protect merchants traveling in and out of the grasslands along the way. , and promote Chinese literature in the grasslands."
"Yes!"
Su Chen glanced at the third thing and turned his head to look at Li Bai and Guo Jia, "The imperial examination reform. It was presided over by Li Bai, the deputy commander of the Embroidery Department, who was also the minister of Zhongshu. Guo Jia resigned from the post of sacrificial wine and was promoted to minister of the Ministry of Rites, and also participated in the political and military envoys. "
Li Bai and Guo Jia went out to express their gratitude and returned to the queue. They looked at each other, smiled, and secretly slapped each other on the back.
“Promote Zheng He to the position of Superintendent of Ceremonies, Admiral of the Anti-Security Factory, Commander of the Navy of Feiyungang, guard Haikou, build a fleet, and be granted the title of Marquis of Pavilion!
Jia Xuzhong was dismissed from his position as Secretary-General and was appointed Taiwei. He was responsible for the training of soldiers and horses in various states and counties, as well as the deployment of soldiers and armor, and was granted the title of Marquis of Pavilion!
Wu Zixun has been transformed into a regular servant of martial arts. He will be with me and can participate in military affairs! "As I read them out one by one, most of them were court officials or nearby deployments. Later, it was about the promotion of the generals who commanded the troops.
"...Li Jing He conquered Xirong and commanded the troops well, and was promoted to Minister of the Ministry of War. The original Minister Qin Tong heard that he was old and frail, so he participated in the rebellion and was removed from his official position. Lu Bu, the Marquis of Wen, was promoted to the rank of former general and given a holiday yue. He promoted Guan Yu to the left general and was given a holiday yue. Xiongwei County of Yanzhou was changed to Hanshou County, and Guan Yu was granted the title of Hanshouhou. Zhang Fei was made the right general and was changed to Rongzhou Qingshan. The county is Xixiang County, and Zhang Fei is granted the title of Marquis of Xixiang! Promote Zhao Yun to the post of general and Fenliehou! "
"Huo Qubing! ”
Su Chen looked at the queue of military ministers and raised his voice. At this time, a tall and tall young general walked out of the queue. He nodded slightly with a handsome face and raised his hand: "Your Majesty, please give me orders!"
"Conquer Xirong." , General Huo has made great contributions, commanding the cavalry in every possible way. He has appointed a champion lord and a hussar general, and appointed a general to lead the Yulin army."
"Here!" Huo Qubing grinned once he regained his former honor. He handed over his hand and then turned back to the queue.
Watching Huo Qubing retreat, Su Chen pressed his elbows on the armrests and glanced at everyone in the court, "Everyone has contributed to the unification of the north. I will not leave anyone behind who deserves a reward. The officers and soldiers of the three armies will reward you. , I have already drawn it up, and I will let the civil and military ministers know what the appointments are, so that outsiders will not think that I am arbitrary."
Su Chen raised his hand: "Zheng Zhangyin read it to them."
"Yes." Zheng He had a gentle face. He held a roll of yellow silk and walked to the middle. He stood in front of the imperial steps and faced the civil and military officials of the court. His voice was not majestic, but it was clear and upright.
"The emperor issued an imperial edict:
The Xia Dynasty has just begun. When appointing people, you must not be biased or let the soldiers feel cold. Therefore, Xia Houyuan is promoted to the general of the guard; Zhang Liao is promoted to the charioteer. General; promoted Ma Chao to General Zhenbei; promoted Ma Dai to General North; promoted Shun Zhenhu General and Dingwei Colonel; promoted Zhang Yi to General Zhenglu; promoted Zhoucang Anzhong General and Hengjiang Colonel; promoted Niugai to Wu General, and also Du Jiang Xiaowei..."
"...Lei Tong is the general of Anyi and the prefect of Yantang Pass"
"...Li Dian is the general of Anyuan and the prefect of Longyang."< br>
"...Zhang He was promoted to Pingnan General and Qingchao Xiaowei."
"...promoted Xun Yu to Zhongshu Ling...promoted Qin Qiong to General of Zhenguo, Yuchi to Gongfu to Guoguo, and Ge Shuhan to General of Wuwei. He is also the deputy envoy to the Fusi! "
"He is appointed as General Shenwu, with Dian Wei and Xu Chu as the guards on the left and right, and the former guards are named Huwei and Huwei two battalions."< br>
…
A series of sounds of awarding people continued to resound. When Zheng He’s voice stopped, Su Chen raised his hand and then stood up: "In addition, I have one more thing to do. Feng Taiping Dao Zhangjiao is the Imperial Master of Daxia!”
The series of rewards on the yellow silk are all for the meritorious generals. In any case, it makes sense. The actions of this imperial advisor made many people puzzled, but then thinking about the Yellow Turban turmoil in the Wei Kingdom in the Central Plains, it was simply too much of a coincidence. As soon as His Majesty went south, there was a response from the other side. There was only one possibility. Zhang Jiao of Taiping Road had been secretly helping.
However, if you think about it carefully, Taiping Road seems to have started from Ding'an City, so many things make sense. Moreover, it is rumored that Zhang Jiao can control lightning, and it is said that the new emperor has the secret of rejuvenation. Then This makes people even more convinced that the relationship between the two is not that simple and close.
Many people thought of this and subconsciously looked at Zhao Yun and a group of other once gray-haired veterans who gradually transformed into those in their thirties.
Suddenly, the officials in the court were not excited. If His Majesty caught his eye, would he be able to make himself look radiant again from his old age?
"...The rewards are here for now, do you have anything else to add?" Su Chen put his hands up and walked a few steps on the imperial steps, "If not, that's it for today."
After saying that, he walked down the imperial steps, and the officials of Honglu Temple hurriedly came out: "Your Majesty, the foreign envoys are still waiting to be received."
"I am tired, we will talk in two days."< br>
Su Chen walked past the official, raised his sleeves and flicked them casually, and strode outside. When he stepped out of the palace door, the voice followed closely.
“It’s not that easy to worship the superior state, let them wait.”
The next chapter, the official position changes, it’s time for new changes.
