Lu Xuan smiled slightly and said directly: "The changes in Wu State last year are obvious to all. The territory has expanded a lot. Along with this, more people are needed to serve in local governments and govern the local areas."
"For example, in Yanzhou and Qingzhou, official positions are currently vacant, and they need people to serve as governors, take charge of the local affairs, and appease the people. You have been following my king's side to make suggestions, which is very good."
"However, in the long run, I still want to serve in a local government to further broaden my horizons and hone myself. So I plan to arrange for you to go to a local government. What do you think?"
Lu Su's heart skipped a beat when he heard this.
Very surprised.
Unexpectedly, I would have the opportunity to become an official. In fact, this is the most stable and orthodox way to get promoted.
Zhou Yu, Kuai Liang, Pang Tong and others are like this.
Now he also has a chance.
The most important point is that the unification of the world is imminent. Lu Su has achieved political achievements in local governance, which is a solid resume. In the future, he will be transferred to the central government to serve as an important minister in the court.
Lu Su had no objection to the release and quickly said: "Your Majesty, I am willing."
Lu Xuan nodded and said: "In that case, you go to Qingzhou to serve as the governor. Qingzhou is the land of Qilu, and its literary style has been brilliant since ancient times. After you go to Qingzhou, you must restore the local people's livelihood as soon as possible, appease the people, and develop production."
"I obey!"
Lu Su answered directly.
Lu Xuandao: "What do you need when you go to Qingzhou to take up a post?"
Lu Su thought for a while and replied: "I have only one request when I go to Qingzhou to take up a post."
Lu Xuandao: "But it doesn't matter!"
Lu Su replied: "I hope that there will be another capable general to assist me. Although Governor Kuai has raided Qingzhou, there are likely to be bandits and there may also be resistance from large families. I need the help of someone capable."
Lu Xuandao: "Who do you need to go?"
Lu Su said without hesitation: "Please allow me to allow Chen Dao to assist me in guarding Qingzhou."
"That's right!"
Lu Xuan answered again.
For Lu Xuan, every region must have a standing army. Only in this way can we ensure local stability to the greatest extent and ensure our own combat effectiveness to the greatest extent.
As long as local officials are not given military and political power and the military and political power are separated, problems will generally not arise.
The biggest turning point in the collapse of the late Eastern Han Dynasty was when Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty agreed to Liu Yan's petition, and the local government implemented the state pastoral system, and the state pastoral military and administration took control.
During the Tang Dynasty, after Jiedushi took control of military, political, and financial power, he also integrated local military and political affairs, and the imperial power fell aside.
At any time, the military and government cannot be integrated at the local level. Once implemented, it will be a state within a state. However, local troops must also be available to ensure combat effectiveness and prevent the collapse of foreign operations.
In the later Song Dynasty, in order to weaken the warriors as much as possible and prevent them from usurping power, they gathered all the soldiers in the imperial capital. It is true that there is no army in the place, but the army near Kyoto is rotten and mutes when it comes to war, and cannot fight at all.
Lu Xuan had no intention of restricting military generals. As long as the military and political affairs were separated, local officials could not control the army openly, and the generals in the army could not control political affairs, there would not be a big problem.
Lu Su breathed a sigh of relief, cupped his hands and said, "I thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness."
Lu Xuan waved his hand and said: "Go."
Lu Su bowed his hands and retreated, and Lu Xuan summoned Chen Dao alone again to arrange Chen Dao's trip to Qingzhou.
After deciding on the candidate for the governor of Qingzhou, Lu Xuan summoned Xu Shu to see him.
Xu Shu entered the main hall and saluted: "Your Majesty."
Lu Xuan looked gentle and said slowly: "Yuanzhi has been following this king for many years. In these years, you have been serving as the Minister of Rites and established and improved the etiquette system of the Wu Kingdom. It is very good. Thank you for your hard work."
Xu Shu shook his head and said, "I don't have to work hard."
Lu Xuan further said: "Yanzhou is still won, and Zhou Yu is in charge of the overall situation in Yanzhou for the time being. However, Yanzhou needs someone to serve as the governor. I plan to send you to be the governor of Yanzhou."
"I am willing!"
Xu Shu answered without thinking.
In the peaceful and prosperous times, the Ministry of Rites was a department of the Qing Dynasty. It also controlled the Imperial College and was responsible for etiquette, education and other matters across the country. It was a very important department.
Now, the authority of the Ministry of Rites is not great.
Even so, Xu Shu worked conscientiously and did all the affairs of the Ministry of Etiquette well.
Now, he has the opportunity to rule a place.
Lu Xuan said in a deep voice: "You go to Yanzhou to take charge, and I will arrange for Zhang Xiu to assist you."
"I would like to thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness."
Xu Shu lifted up his robe and knelt down to salute.
Lu Xuan waved his hand, and Xu Shu stood up and left. Lu Xuan summoned Zhang Xiu alone again.
After Zhang Xiu's battle in Nanyang, he followed Lu Xuan back to Shu County. During the Battle of Youzhou, Zhang Liao and Guan Yu went north, while Zhang Xiu stayed behind. In the battle of Yizhou, the main force was Gan Ning and Zhao Yun, while Zhang Xiu was still at the rear.
Zhang Xiu had no objection.
If you stay behind, you'll be safe anyway.
This time, Lu Xuan asked Zhang Xiu to go north to Yanzhou, and Zhang Xiu obeyed.
After Lu Xuan arranged things for Lu Su and Xu Shu, he issued another order. Shi Tianchou, the governor of Youzhou, was transferred to the governor of Youzhou, and Zhuge Xuan, the minister of the Ministry of Rites, was transferred to the minister of the Ministry of Rites.
During the battle in Youzhou, Tian Chou relied on Tian Chou to take charge of the overall situation and strategize, so Lu Xuan directly rewarded him. As for the awards for generals, only the officials must compile all the military exploits and arrange them one by one.
This requires enough time and cannot be completed in a short while.
Lu Xuan arranged a general adjustment of officials, and the government affairs of Wu State after moving the capital gradually got on the right track. Yanzhou and Qingzhou experienced rapid and stable development with the appointment of Xu Shu and Lu Su.
Entering April, Zhuge Liang, under the guidance of Lu Xuan, became familiar with all grain conditions and prepared for this year's farming.
April 12, the weather was sunny.
Lu Xuan summoned Jia Xu, Zhang Zhao, Fazheng, Zhuge Jin, Yang Xiu and other people in the main hall.
Lu Xuan glanced at everyone and said in a deep voice: "It is already April, and the weather is getting warmer, which is suitable for further war. This year's goal is to destroy Yuan Shao and Cao Cao and unify the world."
When everyone heard this, they became excited.
coming!
Finally unified.
Lu Xuan continued: "In this battle, Zhang Zhao is sitting at the rear and is responsible for rear logistics."
"I obey!"
Zhang Zhao replied loudly.
Lu Xuan looked over and said, "Jia Xu and Fa Zheng will follow me north, while the others will stay behind to handle the affairs of the palace."
"Here!"
Jia Xu, Fazheng and others answered in unison.
Zhuge Jin looked as usual and didn't think there was anything wrong with staying behind. These Lu Xuan's chief reporters will be involved in the handling of government affairs. Many things in Wu State have to pass through their hands, which is tempering.
Yang Xiu felt a little sorry.
Still, he stayed.
Lu Xuan arranged things and asked Jia Xu and Fazheng to prepare. He went to the harem to talk to Da Qiao about going north to fight. Then he found Lu Kang and asked Lu Kang to keep an eye on Nanjing. After everything was arranged, Lu Xuan took Jia Xu, Fazheng, Xu Chu and others north to Yanzhou, preparing to join Zhou Yu.
This time going north, Lu Xuan did not hide his whereabouts, but went north in a big way.
When Lu Xuan went north, Cao Cao's spies hiding in Nanjing immediately discovered Lu Xuan's whereabouts and sent the news back to Guanzhong as quickly as possible.
