Cao Mao suddenly sent someone to summon him, which shocked many ministers.

Could it be that something big happened? ?

When they saw Xia Houxian, who was in charge of the Chinese Army, appearing here, they strengthened their guess that something big must have happened!

Soon, these important ministers appeared in the east hall.

With serious faces, they bowed to the emperor and then sat on both sides.

Cao Mao was sitting in the upper position, his face equally grim.

Wang Chang sat next to him, looking at the important ministers in the temple, feeling a little dazed.

Seeing everyone gathered, Cao Mao said: "Don't worry, gentlemen. This summons is not for anything else. It's just because I was extremely excited by the letter from General Zhengnan, so I summoned all the gentlemen to come and discuss this matter. thing."

Everyone's eyes immediately focused on Wang Chang. Is this him?

Cao Mao said calmly: "Prince, please inform everyone of your political strategy."

Wang Chang looked at everyone and explained his political strategy again.

After hearing these words, the officials suddenly realized.

Many of these important ministers knew Wang Chang's political strategies. After all, they were veterans who had been in the temple for many years.

When Wang Chang finished talking about his seven political strategies.

Cao Mao just said: "I think the prince's political strategy is very appropriate, what do you think?"

Wang Su nodded and said, "That's true. You should be rewarded."

Cao Mao waved his hand, "I won't reward you!"

"I want to implement these political strategies now. When the political strategies are completed, I will reward the princes according to their performance and corresponding results!"

"I summoned all the princes here not to discuss how to reward the princes, but to discuss how to implement these political strategies!"

Cao Mao was unusually tough.

But the important ministers here can be regarded as Cao Mao's cronies. Even if they are not cronies, their stance is biased towards him.

The ministers did not object, but just pondered.

"Okay! That should be the case!"

Zhong Hui was the first to speak in support.

"The first thing is to encourage academics, build schools, and allow students to enroll. This matter should be handled by the Shangshutai. Every county in the Wei Dynasty should have a school to attract outstanding local students to enroll! "

"If the local government cannot complete this task, it will be punished!"

Zhong Hui continued: "The examination system should be implemented on a large scale, and the transformation of the Zhongzheng system can be carried out for both officials and petty officials."

"The specific items of the examination should be closely related to temple government affairs, and should include classics, mathematics, art, astronomy, geography, art of war, etc."

Zhong Hui immediately began to think about the specific implementation methods of these policies.

Cao Mao listened very carefully.

Under the guidance of Zhong Hui, the ministers quickly expressed their opinions.

Zhuge Dan said, "I have an idea regarding the minor officials' issue."

"Your Majesty, the soldiers of the armies from all over the country will leave the army and return to their places after being injured and getting older. These are considered to be meritorious people and loyal to the temple."

"Your Majesty, can you evaluate these veterans individually and select the outstanding ones to serve as local officials?"

"Today's petty officials are all from local powerful families. They seek profits for their families, collude with officials, work as tigers, and help the tyrants. They do not play any good role. If the border guards are included, the Wei army has more than 500,000 people. , and those soldiers who left the military and returned to their hometowns did not live a very good life."

When Zhuge Dan spoke like this, Cao Mao was attracted to him again.

Zhuge Dan was well known for his love for his soldiers. Historically, after Zhuge Dan failed in his rebellion, almost all of his men died in battle. Only a few hundred of them were captured in Shouchun and refused to surrender.

Sima Zhao sent people to recruit them and offered them a pardon. They said, "I would not hate to die for Duke Zhuge."

So, Sima Zhao asked them to line up in a row during the execution, and for each person he killed, he would recruit the next one to surrender, but no one surrendered until the last person was killed.

Zhuge Dan's idea is to let retired veterans serve as local officials. Although it cannot be said that these retired Wei veterans are all upright and brave people, their overall quality is still slightly higher than other groups. If nothing else, His obedience and courage alone cannot be compared to others.

This method can not only improve the level of local officials, but also win over the hearts of the Wei officers and soldiers. The emperor will give you extremely high treatment, and after you retire, he will also arrange a job for you and let you work as a local official. This can be regarded as Benevolent government.

Cao Mao felt that what Zhuge Dan said was very good, so he asked Zhang Hua to record it on the side.

Wang Su then said: "Your Majesty, I believe that the difficulty of the assessment items should be set according to different levels. When local governments supplement officials, they can set up separate assessments according to different positions. Only those who pass the assessment can hold the position. Officials."

The ministers seemed to be enlightened by something. Suddenly, everyone began to talk about their own ideas. For a moment, the ministers seemed to have forgotten their camps and intrigues. Everyone was explaining their own opinions.

They themselves did not realize this, not even Cao Mao who was sitting in the upper position noticed it.

Only Zhang Hua, who was standing aside and responsible for recording, noticed this exciting scene.

Time seems to have gone back decades.

The Wei Dynasty has returned to the era when Cao Cao sat in the upper position and capable ministers made suggestions on both sides to solve major world affairs together.

The Wei Dynasty has not had such an atmosphere for a long time. In the past, the ministers were just quarreling, holding each other back, and fighting for power. It has been a long time since they worked together for the same government affairs.

Zhong Hui enjoyed this atmosphere very much. He was the most excited. He first debated with Zhuge Dan the merits of using soldiers as minor officials.

He then discussed with Wang Su the specific assessment content, and then discussed whether main examination courses and special examination courses should be formulated.

Finally, he quarreled with Zheng Miao again, arguing over how to improve the moral standards of officials.

Even the invisible man Zheng Chong couldn't escape at this moment.

Cao Mao said with a smile: "Mr. Zheng, you have the highest reputation among the officials. You should be responsible for formulating governance documents for the officials in the world. You should give them a standard and something they can follow."

"Asking them to follow this book can avoid many mistakes."

Zheng Chong hesitated. He didn't want to speak at first, but the atmosphere here seemed to have infected him.

The long-term and transparent Shangshu Ling hesitated and said: "Your Majesty has many celebrities around him, and scholars all over the world admire them."

"If we can motivate them, let them write articles to reprimand those unethical behaviors, select a few officials who have done nothing and have done wrong things to write public articles criticizing them, and then select a few officials who have done something good and adhere to the standards to write Will writing praise have a good effect?"

"That makes sense!"

Zhong Hui became even more excited, "Just like commenting on people in the world, let them praise those who have done well and insult those who have done poorly, so as to inspire the scholars in the world and let them follow suit!"

Zhang Hua pursed his lips and started writing again.

Even Sikong started to participate.

Wang Chang sat next to Cao Mao and listened carefully to everyone's discussion. He saw that his political strategy was so valued by them and that so many good things were derived from it.

This made Wang Chang very excited, this is the temple! This is the way to govern the world! !

He turned his head and saw Cao Mao sitting in the upper position. His expression was so serious. Sometimes he frowned, sometimes laughed, sometimes nodded, and he was fully devoted.

I don’t know how much time passed, but the sky was already dark.

Suddenly, there was silence in the east hall.

The ministers seemed to have just stepped out of the atmosphere just now. Thinking of the important matter they had just discussed, they looked at each other in confusion.

But Cao Mao would not leave Dongtang alone. He smiled and said, "I have never had such an experience since I came to Luoyang for a long time."

"The discussion you have today is an important strategy for governing the world."

"This is what a temple should look like if we want to rejuvenate the country and support the country."

"Everyone! The world's affairs are ours, we must not let them down!"

The ministers immediately stood up and saluted.

They came up with a lot of political strategies on this day, and even said things they dared not say in the past.

Starting tomorrow, they will officially handle these major events.

Just like Cao Mao said.

The great cause of governing the world begins on this day.

At this time, it was impossible for the officials to stay overnight in the palace, so they all said goodbye and left. Only Zhong Hui stayed.

After everyone left, Zhong Huigang couldn't help but said: "Congratulations to Your Majesty on taking office!"

Cao Mao smiled and shook his head, "Isn't it considered pro-government in the past?"

Zhong Hui said with emotion: "Even when the general was alive, the ministers never discussed important matters together like this. They all worked for their own benefit. Today I just learned that even the general is far inferior to your majesty!"

"Your Majesty, the Lord of Shu is fatuous and the Lord of Wu is incapable of governing. Isn't this the destiny of the Wei Dynasty?"

Cao Mao has been responsible for praising his ministers these days, and this is the first time Zhong Hui has taken the initiative to praise him. Well, this feeling is quite good. No wonder they all like to be praised.

"Your Majesty, how can we make all the ministers accept this matter?"

Zhong Hui talked about the resistance in the temple again.

"This is why I asked General Xiahou to come with me."

"Now that I have the Chinese Army in my hands, troops from Hebei, Yongliang, Jingxiang, Yuhuai and other regions, do I still need to be afraid of these people in the temple?!"

"I am the emperor of the Wei Dynasty and the king of the world. If anyone disobeys, I will be punished with the crime of treason and disobedience."

"My great-grandfather was disliked by the scholars, but when he was still alive, there were no ministers in the temple who failed to contribute to the country, and no local officials were ignored. Every place worked together to help the country and the troubled times. My great-grandfather My father has an excellent reputation, and scholars are full of praise for him now, but didn’t the chaos in the Wei Dynasty begin with him?!"

"I would rather be a tyrannical hero like my great-grandfather, who is not tolerated by others, than a holy king like my grandfather who is praised by everyone!!"
