All the courtiers were holding their breath, waiting for Xu Mochen's will.
Xu Mochen smiled secretly in his heart, but showed no emotion on the surface. He opened the memorial and seemed to be thinking seriously.
The only sound in the hall was the whirring sound of the fan.
"This is a good suggestion." When Xu Mochen spoke, everyone felt a little dazed and listened to his unhurried words, "What does it mean? It shows that the officials are attentive.
Indeed, after the unification of Daqian, even now, it can be said to be the beginning of the world.
Some officials are old, some are sick, and insufficient personnel is a problem.
As states and counties across the country develop, more departments are needed to take care of more detailed issues, and they all need people.
So, what Aiqing means is to recruit a large number of talents through this imperial examination? "
The Minister of Civil Affairs said with a smile: "Yes, Wei Chen believes that only with sufficient talents and complete departments can we support the great success of Daqian in the future."
Xu Mochen agrees, but will you pay the wages of this group of people?
Obviously impossible, it was not him, the emperor, who finally landed.
So he also smiled: "This suggestion is very good, I am right!"
Everyone heaved a sigh of relief, Your Majesty is indeed a great king.
The human court officials were anxious, and they could clearly see that this was a trap.
"Your Majesty!" Li Heng (Human Race), the female official of the Imperial Palace and Zuodu Yushi, stood up and said, "I have something to report to you, but what the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel says must not be accepted!"
"Shut up!" Xu Mochen didn't give any face, "Although the censor has the authority to report rumors, it can't be used in every situation.
I ask you, do you want to say that this sudden increase in departments and officials will be a huge expense in terms of salary expenditure.
Do you still want to say that if there are more people, the efficiency of work will be lowered, things will be messy, and there may be a group of corrupt officials, leading to the corruption of officialdom? "
It was Li Heng who was scolded, but for some reason, all the courtiers felt their faces burning.
Especially the official minister, his face turned purple.
"You are the only one who is a capable minister, and the other ministers are all incompetent?" Xu Mochen couldn't help but sneer, "Governing national issues cannot be done with a snap of the head, otherwise what would we all be sitting here for.
You go back and write a memorial to apologize later. "
Li Heng went down satisfied. Seeing His Majesty's behavior, there must be a reward tonight.
Stable!
Xu Mochen cursed a lot, took a sip of ginseng tea, and said in an amiable manner: "But these words are not without merit.
If there are too many officials, their salaries, promotions, etc. must be taken into consideration. They must be fair and impartial and need to be assessed.
In this regard, does the Minister of Civil Affairs have any suggestions? "
The Minister of Civil Affairs was stunned. This still needs to be assessed. Is it so complicated?
We are all immortal cultivators, and being an official is just a name, and by the way, we can get some resources for the sect. Who really cares about the people will only do things perfunctorily.
"It seems that the Minister of Personnel's thinking is not thoughtful enough." Before the Minister of Personnel could answer, Xu Mochen had already moved on to another topic, "So, the suggestion of the Minister of Personnel is feasible, but I feel that a department needs to be established to specifically Used for official assessment."
"This..." Minister of Civil Affairs felt like he shot himself in the foot.
"It's not a big problem," Xu Mochen seemed to mutter to himself, "If we really want to catch up on the matter of official inspection, this matter should be led by the Metropolitan Procuratorate and assisted by the Ministry of Civil Affairs. Implementation will begin immediately after the imperial examination.
The collected inspection data were handed over to the Prime Minister... However, the Prime Minister is in charge of all government affairs and has not been in good health. He was on leave for a long time last year. I am really worried.
Well, in order to share the Prime Minister's worries, I decided to set up a "Governing Board" to deal with these issues. "
Boom—The Prime Minister felt dizzy and dizzy. He steadied his breathing and said, "Your Majesty, although I..."
"Prime Minister, don't think too much," Xu Mochen smiled, "It's just a board of directors, not even a department.
You share the worries and have no other meaning. "
This has no other meaning. The Prime Minister is not an idiot. It is said to be a governing body, but it is actually a decentralization of power.
Of course Xu Mochen knew well that under the emperor of the Daqian court was the prime minister, so there was a conflict between the power of the monarch and the prime minister.
He has long planned to establish a cabinet. This so-called board of directors is actually a small cabinet dedicated to him.
Taking the official inspection as the starting point, we get to know the officials who are cultivators of immortality.
Other courtiers also felt something was wrong.
The emperor promised to expand the scale of the imperial examination and promote more officials. On the surface, it seemed that the immortal cultivators had the advantage.
Now there is an additional restriction, which is official inspection.
And this inspection power was seized by the emperor, and even the prime minister was kicked out.
There is no room for refutation of the reasons given.
Your Majesty, you are so insidious!
The Minister of Civil Affairs stood there blankly for a while, but finally had nothing to say and retreated.
Xu Mochen was very happy: "I am very happy. Everyone is working hard to achieve great results. No wonder many officials are sick.
Well, at the National Medical Center, I think the corresponding medical system needs to be expanded and popularized. Please take note of it. "
Everyone felt aggrieved for a while, no need, they didn't need human medical technology.
They are immortal cultivators and will not get sick.
"I've been thinking about it," Xu Mochen opened another topic, "I think that the origins of officials should also be refined.
There are many outstanding talents among the children from poor families, so through this imperial examination, I think..."
Before these words were finished, the courtiers rebelled.
In the past, all officials in the court and important departments were held by immortal cultivators.
Most of the ordinary human officials are from noble families, and occasionally some are from poor families.
But what the emperor is saying now seems to mean that he wants to use a large number of children from poor families.
What about the cultivators? What should the gentry do?
Not only the immortal cultivators, but also the human officials were shocked.
But the human race knows how to assess the situation and should not act rashly now.
Sure enough, the loyal ministers took action.
"Your Majesty, this must not be done. Since the founding of the country, Daqian has had its own fixed method of talent selection. Now a sudden big change may shake the foundation of the country."
"Weichen believes that the best students and talented people in the world are still selected from among the existing disciples."
"Yes, of course there are people from poor families who are talented and knowledgeable, but they are only a small number after all."
"Your Majesty, there are good and bad among poor families, and some are even sinners. Your Majesty, please think twice about this matter."
"The ministers and others are speaking from the bottom of their hearts. I hope your majesty will accept it."
"This son of a poor family, with such a background, becomes an official and gains power. Wei Chen believes that he will inevitably become inflated and may do things that violate the court's instructions."
"Yes, it is said that a scholarly family is a scholar. Scholars pay attention to inheritance. How can you change it at will?"
In short, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
If your majesty doesn't listen, this country will suffer disaster.
