You must know that this is the first day after the summer solstice, and it will be dark at around four o'clock in the morning. You have to come to Weiyang Palace even before that, even if it is not far away, how can you let people live?
Thanks to the Qin and Han Dynasties for inheriting the aristocratic system of the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods, that is, the quarrel between the monarch and his ministers has not reached the level of later generations. The monarch has no respect for his ministers. At least everyone has a seat when going to court.
Thanks to such a seat, otherwise Chen Xi would probably have to show off his super-advanced talent of being able to rest while standing today.
"Wake up!" Liu Bei poked Chen Xi, who was dozing off, with his elbow. After scanning around, he found that half of his civil servants were napping. He couldn't help but smile bitterly. He had no choice but to control himself too loosely before. , there are basically few people in this group who get up so early.
In addition, after arriving at the court, Liu Tong did not show up for half an hour, and the group of people began to fall asleep in a daze. All those who got up early in the morning had nothing to do after getting up. If they sat there in a daze, there was a high possibility that Everyone will feel sleepy.
If Liu Ye, Lu Su and others still need to pay attention to their image, then Chen Xi's actions are like contagion. Half of Liu Bei's civil servants are sleepy. After Chen Xizhen falls asleep, the other sleepy people will not matter. Anyway, if the sky falls, there will still be tall people holding it up.
As for Sun Ce's subordinates, they were staring at the civil servants under Liu Bei's command across from them. One look at the opposite side revealed that the life patterns of those people had not yet picked up at this point. Compared with themselves and others, they felt deeply aggrieved. The Jiangdong group of people worked so hard. , but actually couldn’t outplay the group of people opposite who didn’t do well.
Cao Cao's face turned dark and he stared at the throne from time to time. They had long been accustomed to the timing of Liu Tong's appearance. If today's meeting had not been very important, they would probably have arrived half an hour late. As a result, I had known better than to come so early.
Being nudged by Liu Bei's elbow, Chen Xi woke up with a start, and began to glance left and right, but did not find the eldest princess.
"Don't sleep. I just asked Cao Mengde. He said that the princess will be here soon. Wake up the others quickly." Liu Bei also saw Chen Xi's puzzled look and explained immediately.
"Oh oh oh." Chen Xi nodded repeatedly, and then quickly shook the group of people around him to wake up. Soon, a group of people on Liu Bei's side were woken up, and then they looked at the main seat in high spirits, waiting for the arrival of the eldest princess. Pretend to be positive.
Cao Cao was indeed experienced. Within a few minutes after he notified Liu Bei, Liu Tong appeared in the Weiyang Palace and sat down in the main seat after receiving the ceremony.
This time Liu Tong also knew that there were many things going on, so he did not talk nonsense like "if something happens, he will announce it early, but if nothing happens, he will withdraw from the court" and went straight to the topic.
"Today we are unified, I am determined to reorganize the officialdom, what do you think?" Liu Tong said directly, saying that today is mainly about this matter, and the official positions of all officials need to be re-approved.
Liu Bei raised his brows when he heard this and looked at Cao Cao. This is completely different from what Cao Cao said about Liu Tong's lazy politics. It can grasp the core issue very well.
Speaking of which, Liu Bei and Cao Cao worry about completely different things. Cao Cao is dissatisfied with Liu Tong's inertia and hopes Liu Tong can pay more attention to national affairs, but Liu Bei doesn't care about this at all. It doesn't matter whether the princess works or not, what matters is whether the people can Live well.
Therefore, Liu Bei scorned Cao Cao's statement. He felt that it was enough to care about Liu Tong's intelligence, as long as he was quick in thinking and able to distinguish right from wrong.
This is a princess, not an emperor. Why are you demanding so much?
Therefore, based on the above sentence, Liu Bei felt that Liu Tong was a good regent.
When Xun Yu heard this, he stood up to report, walked to the center, and began to report the adjustment of the most important official positions. In fact, there is nothing to say about these official positions. Whoever owns them belongs to whom. No one can move them at all. On the contrary, the ones behind them are The official position needs to be carefully discussed.
However, Liu Tong was obviously prepared. He directly sealed those official positions that had nothing to discuss at all. Then he looked at the remaining official positions with two thousand dan, and said to Cao Cao, "The lower official positions are led by Cao Sikong." , and the ministers will decide on the candidates, and then select one or two people for each official position and report them to me."
Cao Cao's heart was pounding, he knew this would be the case. Should this be said to be trust, or should it be said that Liu Tong simply thought that he did a good job and could settle this matter?
"Yes, Your Highness." Cao Cao replied helplessly, and then gave Liu Bei a look. Look, that's it. The eldest princess has been like this since she succeeded to the throne.
Liu Bei felt that he had his own style and put the right people in the right positions. Cao Cao could not be careless in doing this, even if there were things he didn't understand well, and there were not many ministers, even if it was because of favors If you are biased, your ability must be enough.
In addition to selecting one or two people, the official position has basically been determined. There is no problem in Liu Bei's opinion when reporting it to Liu Tong to complete the process. This is also the same as his own usual way of handling it.
Since the people below can do a good job, why not just leave it to the other party to handle it. By then, the process will be completed and the candidates will be selected. Lazy administration, isn't it? This is the really correct solution. Do you want to A guy who's bossing you around?
Thinking of this, Liu Bei felt that Cao Cao's statement that Liu Tong was lazy in politics might be due to other reasons.
Therefore, Liu Bei was aroused by Cao Cao's look. After thinking for a moment, Liu Bei no longer asked Man Chong to play. Instead, he stepped forward and said, "Your Highness, the world is unified, but there has been ten years of turmoil, and there is a lack of contact between the central and local governments. , can the evaluation of local officials be restarted?”
Liu Tong was stunned. No one had informed him about this thing before. He looked at Liu Bei again and knew that the other party could not cheat him, and there was no need. He also knew that Liu Bei suddenly remembered and mentioned this matter, so It turned a corner in my mind.
"The ability of local officials is related to the livelihood of the people under their rule. They should not be touched lightly when they are in a hurry. Since the Taiwei mentioned this, he must have a good plan. In this case, the Taiwei will take the lead and lead the Tingwei to investigate and measure." Liu Tongliang Then he passed the pot to Liu Bei and let Liu Bei do it.
After Liu Bei was stunned, he looked at Liu Tong, and then at Cao Cao. Although there was something wrong, Liu Bei felt that Liu Tong's way of thinking was correct.
"Lieutenant, do you still have some government affairs that need to be reported?" Liu Tong looked at Liu Bei who was a little stunned and asked, "I just don't do the work anyway, whoever you suggest will do it, and whoever you love will do it!"
"Does the central government need to transfer local officials to supplement the positions in the court, and then decentralize some officials to strengthen the connection between the central and local governments and strengthen the governance of various places?" Liu Bei is not afraid of offending people at his current height. Since Liu Tong has no problem, let's see if it is It's not another question.
"You can give it a try. The Lieutenant can handle it together." Liu Tong said matter-of-factly.
Now Liu Bei finally felt a little bad. This was more thorough than when he was in power. He delegated power more completely. What is this? Do you really want to be a mascot for your feelings?
But thinking about Liu Tong's identity and his own origin, although Liu Bei had a headache, he didn't understand. In addition, he also understood the situation in the court, so he didn't think there was anything wrong with Liu Tong's attitude, and couldn't help but look at Cao Cao.
Cao Cao looked back at Liu Bei with a narrow smile. Liu Bei raised his eyebrows and thought that it was probably not the eldest princess's problem. It might be Cao Cao's own psychological problem. He delegated power so thoroughly. Don't you think it was trust? , but I think it’s because the eldest princess is lazy in politics. Where is her brain?
But having said that, Liu Bei also felt that it was not good for Liu Tong to do nothing. What's more, as the eldest princess of the Han Dynasty, she also had some people of her own. At any rate, she also needed some foundation. She could not make people think that she was such a clan member. , bully the princess.
"Your Highness, under the rule of the Central Plains, villages are now being merged into villages, and people are increasingly concentrated. It is necessary to readjust the responsibilities of local officials and allocate official positions." Liu Bei reported again.
This time, unlike those in the central government, he is a local official, but the scale involved is very large, which will test Liu Tong's ability.
"Most of the official positions involved in this matter are middle and lower-level local officials. Local lower-level officials are directly promoted to fill the vacancies. Lower-level subordinates are recruited locally, and the Taiwei strengthens the management of officials." Liu Tong looked at Liu Bei in confusion and said. .
Liu Tong can't be said to be very smart, but Liu Tong's way of dealing with officials is very special, that is, if there is a vacancy in an official position, whoever wants to take the position, as long as the officials in the first season show their ability, the officials at the lower level will definitely be better than the officials at the higher level. If there are many, there must be someone who can do this job.
After making up for it, if nothing else, at least the previous matter must have been dealt with. Next, the upper management only needs to take care of the officials. If something goes wrong, just go to the person you can see.
As for saying something happened and she didn't know, there was nothing she could do. The imperial power couldn't leave Chang'an, so she didn't need to struggle.
Anyway, Liu Tong relies on political clarity. He can receive changes in national decrees and officials. This method can make the country move forward steadily. If the politics is dark and he cannot receive anything at all, then he will bully his superiors. What is hidden must be in front of oneself.
Liu Tong has even done it. At that time, without waiting for those people to speak, he will first give up the throne. Do you like it or not? Anyway, after doing that step, I took away the belongings of Weiyang Palace and left. Don’t believe it. You can still find trouble with me.
If Liu Tong really wanted the new emperor to ascend the throne, she would not believe that all the ministers could still be in trouble with a princess, regardless of whether the other party ascended the throne or not, and ran away immediately after taking away the belongings of the Weiyang Palace.
There are so many knowledgeable people in the court who are really willing to work. If you just form a group, you can create a prosperous age like Haiyan Heqing. After all, Liu Tong has seen the horror of the civil servant group headed by Xun Yu before. His ability to govern is even terrifying.
