But then again, which of the civil and military officials in the court has completely clean under their butts?

After this court, smart people already knew what they should do. Li Neng said that this year they would only review the Ministry of Personnel, not because Liu Yan and Zuo Longwu Jun really had no time, but Li Neng was giving others a chance. A year or even longer was enough to make them reform. Some things before may be really indelible, but at least Li Neng gave them a chance to atone for their sins.

On this day, several confidants gathered at Tai Chi Palace again, because Li Yan suddenly came to the court, which was a bit off guard. Not only did the ministers of the Ministry of Personnel catch him off guard, but his own confidants also caught him off guard.

"Your Majesty, I will review the Ministry of Personnel tomorrow, but the Ministry of Personnel has too much to do. Although the Minister of State has retired and returned home, if he really meticulously investigates what they have done, I think the result will not be optimistic!"

This time, even Liu Yan, who usually had the largest order, was a little hesitant. This was not because of anything else, but because all officials, especially officials in various prefectures and counties, were from the Ministry of Personnel, and all the reviews of officials in previous years also came from the Ministry of Personnel.

Once the ministers of the Ministry of Personnel have any problems, the number of officials involved in the Tang Dynasty must be not a small number. Even now, neither Liu Yan nor Zhang Xun could predict how many people would be remembered and what extent would the impact on the Tang Dynasty.

"This time the review of the Ministry of Personnel is only aimed at the officials of the Ministry of Personnel. As for other people, even if it is involved, don't take action for the time being. They will give me a look at their evidence. However, for those within the Ministry of Personnel, no matter who they are, they must investigate. This time, I don't want to do anything else, just to replace the Ministry of Personnel with blood! There are too many involvement, and I'm afraid there will be trouble. For our own court, we still have to boil the frog in warm water, otherwise it will hurt our vitality!"

Zhang Xun and Lei Wanchun understood, but Liu Yan and Xu Yuan were still a little confused about why Li Qing was so anxious.

Originally, Zhang Xun thought that Li Yan and Xu Yuan would know about his next step of preparing to attack the Jiedushi at this time, but Li Yan still did not say it and stated that this time it only involved the Ministry of Personnel and no one else could be involved.

When Liu Yan took the task to find Chen Zhibao to ask for people, Li Yan, Zhang Xun, Xu Yuan and Lei Wanchun were all left in the hall, Li Yan finally said something different.

"You two are a little surprised when they come here. Why didn't I tell you about the governor?"

As soon as he asked this, others didn't do much, but Xu Yuan was confused first, thinking that what had something to do with the governor and why didn't he know what happened in the middle?

At this moment, Li Neng asked Zhang Xun to tell Xu Yuan about the matter they discussed in Lingzhou. After that, Xu Yuan nodded in a dream. It was never a secret that there were several military governors in the Tang Dynasty that had never been too obedient, but no one would have thought that Li Neng would want to move them at this time. After all, the military forces in Li Neng’s hands cannot be called too much, and it cannot be wasted on civil wars. This is something that the Tang generals with a little bit of military knowledge know, so those military governors are so fearless.

"Your Majesty thinks that the Ministry of Personnel has any contact with the several governors of their army?"

After hearing this, Xu Yuan quickly came up with his own ideas. Li Neng never did anything stupid. Since he did this now, it must be something that happened to the Ministry of Personnel that Li Neng had to move. Except for the governor, there would never be such a big situation that Li Neng wanted to move.

"I have been secretly asking the imperial guards of the Beiya to investigate some of the military governors during this period. The reason why they did some things tightly and that our Chang'an City had no idea what they were doing locally was inseparable from the role played by the officials in the area under their jurisdiction. However, all the officials of all sizes were sent by our Chang'an City. How could each of them wear a pair of pants? I couldn't figure it out before, but later Chen Zhibao's people told me that most of the officials who were selected to those places last year seemed to have known where they were going long ago. This matter was decided by the Ministry of Personnel, so if they wanted to take down the military governor, the Ministry of Personnel must first rectify it. Just as the three of them wanted to force me today, isn't this a ready-made opportunity?"

Li Yan explained to several people why he had to take the Ministry of Personnel at this time. Although this seemed very reckless and might even cause unstable actions in the court, it was obviously Li Yan who had already thought about it carefully.

"What if some military governors noticed something?"

"I'm not afraid of them noticing it, but I'm afraid they'll always pretend to be unaware of anything. If there's really someone who doesn't have a blind eye to jump out and challenge me, I don't mind going out for another battle in person!"

When Zhang Xun and the others heard this, this was obviously a rhythm that Li Lei had already wanted to have the cause and effect. His purpose of hiding Liu Yan was already very obvious. It was not that he did not believe Liu Yan, but that Liu Yan could unconsciously bring the governor in when investigating this matter. After all, Li Xuan said it very tough, but it would be better not to fight a civil war.

Originally, they thought they would get a rest time after the provincial trial was over, but now, there was a little unstable factor in the Tang Dynasty, and Li Neng would not let them calm down.

Suddenly, Xu Yuan seemed to have thought of something, and then asked: "Your Majesty gave this year's top scholar Hong Yuan a county magistrate whom he had to choose. Is it also related to the purging of the Jiedushi this time His Majesty wants to do? If this is true, I have to remind Your Majesty that Hong Yuan is a little too sharp and has reached a place we cannot control, if..."

"Since I dare to let him go, I don't worry about this. Besides, he is from Laizhou. He has long known what kind of virtue he has around his hometown. Moreover, this person is not as reckless as you seem. He is indeed sharp, but he will still avoid the important things!"

After hearing what Li Yan said, Xu Yuan breathed a sigh of relief and nodded gently.
