Li Dan looked at this scene and felt pleased with himself. He also glanced at Yuan Tiangang and raised his eyebrows, as if he was saying, "Look, my mother is better as emperor than him."
Yuan Tiangang didn't reply. He knew very well what Wu Zhao looked like.
Instead, she imitated Taizong, which surprised Yuan Tiangang for a moment.
Next, the ministers made their remarks.
Most of what was said was about matters between common people, and the Bianting area was quite peaceful now.
On the surface, the strongest enemy in the Central Plains is the Tubo, but even they are staying calm now and have not repeatedly invaded the border as they did a few years ago.
This made many people sigh that it was an unexpected surprise that Tubo, who was warlike by nature, could be surprisingly honest.
Wu Zhao just listened to the reports one by one.
By the time everything was said and done, nearly two hours had passed.
Wu Zhao summarized the matter for a while, then slowly said: "I know what you mean."
"There have been no disasters in the world this year, and hundreds of businesses are waiting to be prospered in the disaster-stricken areas. The efforts and thinking of me, the prince, the emperor and the national master are far from enough."
"Nowadays, there are many vacancies in the six official positions in the three provinces, and many places have no one to take charge. The prime minister has to take on multiple positions. If things go on like this, it may be difficult to continue."
Shortage?
The most indispensable thing in the Central Plains is people who want to be officials.
But Di Renjie has personally dealt with no less than two hundred officials, large and small, over the years, and no one has stopped him, and there is nothing he can do to stop him.
Because according to legend, the emperor's master was also traveling and personally buried corrupt officials and officials who did not do practical things.
In addition, the original officials of the older generation either died or retired, and those who were later promoted were only dozens who passed the imperial examination, and their qualifications were not enough.
For example, ministers, ministers, ministers, young ministers, etc., the vacancies are scary!
Except for Wu Chengsi, no one in the court cares about anything now. The other prime ministers all have multiple responsibilities, including Yuan Tiangang. Many things have to be done by him, because when others do things, Li If you don't worry...
After hearing these words, Yuan Tiangang slowly came to the bottom of the hall and presented a letter.
Wu Zhao's palms rose slightly, an inner force emerged, and the letter fell into his hands.
After watching for a moment, Wu Zhao's eyes trembled for a moment.
"Has he even managed this?"
[If there is a shortage of officials, governors and governors can be established to appease the people, and talent-seeking envoys can be established to recommend virtuous people and find useful talents for the Tang Dynasty. 】
【——Li Yunxiao. 】
This letter was written by Yuan Tiangang. He had already known about the lack of officials. He also expected that Wu Zhao would bring it up or the ministers would bring it up, so he made preparations in advance. It had nothing to do with Li Yunxiao.
After reading the letter, Wu Zhao nodded secretly. This was the method she originally thought of.
It is definitely not enough to just rely on the top civil and military scholars in the scientific examination held every five years. It is right to recruit wise men from all over the world.
Wu Zhao immediately called out Li Sizhen and told him what was stated in the letter.
Li Sizhen immediately accepted the order.
Li Sizhen was born as a Jinshi, proficient in the laws of music and rhythm, and possesses the skills of yin and yang calculations. Now he is the right censor Zhongcheng!
This department is similar to the Supervisory Guard, and is specially used to supervise officials and find recommended talents.
It was fitting that he accepted this errand.
After saying this, Wu Zhao glanced at Yuan Tiangang. After a long silence, she suddenly said:
"In the past few years, most of the Li Tang clan and officials who were implicated were demoted. Although they were involved in various crimes, there were also many useful people among them."
"After experiencing that incident, they must have learned a lesson and can change their ways. If they can be recalled, then try to recall them all. If the emperor and master have any differences, it will be my fault and it has nothing to do with you."
With a few fluttering words, most of the ministers became excited!
The turmoil in the court is finally over!
Those talented people or colleagues are coming back!
All the civil and military ministers looked around each other, their expressions of joy beyond words!
But at this time, several people stood up and openly opposed it.
Wu Zhao glanced at the people who objected, and slowly said: "My dear friends, don't worry, if I want to kill them, there are ten thousand ways to do it."
"Now I am working for my country, the Tang Dynasty. I want to achieve great things, so how can I kill friendly people with personal grudges?"
When Yuan Tiangang heard this, he glanced at Wu Zhao seriously.
He had experienced this scene many times.
When Li Jing was about to be executed by Li Yuan, he said, "The public rebels to eliminate riots in the world and wants to achieve great things. Why do you kill friends with personal grudges?"
The meaning is very simple. He, Li Jing, wanted to eat the wealth of the Sui Dynasty and be loyal to the Sui Dynasty. Li Jing discovered that Li Yuan was going to rebel and reported the news to the Sui Emperor. This was a sign of loyalty to the Sui Dynasty and the emperor!
When Li Yuan heard this, and Li Shimin admired Li Jing very much, he came forward to intercede, which created the style of the God of War of the Tang Dynasty.
Later, Taizong followed suit and conquered many heroes, all of whom worked for Li Shimin wholeheartedly.
Now in Wu Zhao, she actually knows how to use this method to reflect her own thoughts. How smart!
Li Dan also nodded and whispered: "This is my queen mother. Why didn't I think of it before? Even if we call them all back, there is still a gap~~~"
Yuan Tiangang sent a message: "Your Highness, there is no need to belittle yourself. Your Majesty has been involved in government affairs for decades, but now he is just acting with the prestige of the emperor's master."
"Acting?" Li Dan looked confused. What's the point of acting? Isn’t this all true?
Yuan Tiangang made it clear directly: "This method is nothing more than the emperor's mental trick. Your Highness is here just now to learn it."
Li Dan scratched his cheek, the emperor's mind... was also in the 'Emperor', but he hadn't figured it out yet. He wanted Yuan Tiangang to teach him, but Yuan Tiangang didn't even look at it.
It seemed that he had to find time to discuss this with his mother.
The voices of discussion were suppressed, and Wu Zhao said calmly: "Leave this matter to the right minister."
After saying this, everything that needed to be done was done, and Wu Meiniang felt a little sleepy.
"Do you have anything else to say, dear sirs? If not, I will disperse the court."
"Yes! I have something to report!"
When this person spoke, many people looked over because this person turned out to be Wu Chengsi.
Wu Chengsi was famous for being a bastard when he went to court. Why did he report something today?
But even though he is a bastard now, as he has been in office for more time, his temperament is at least far better than at the beginning.
Now his steps are steady and his spirit is high. Looking at the surface, he does have the air of a prime minister.
However, his ability to flatter people has not changed at all, and he started by praising: "The Tang Dynasty is prosperous, and the world is auspicious. The Tang Dynasty is in compliance with heaven and man, and it will live as long as the heaven and earth, and the sun and the moon will shine together."
"But..." At this point, Wu Chengsi said in a solemn tone: "I have heard some prophecies outside recently, and their meaning is very ominous..."
"Prophecy?" When Wu Zhao heard this, his sleepiness disappeared.
If nothing else, she was able to sit on the throne in response to folk prophecies. What's more, it was spread among the people, which was equivalent to public opinion. Now that it appeared again, how could she not be curious?
"What prophecy is it? Where did you hear it?"
Wu Chengsi lowered his head slightly and replied: "I heard it accidentally. I sent people around to find out the source, but there was no specific person."
"And this prophecy has four characters: Dai Wu Zhi Yang!"
