Chapter 402 Mingyuan recommends talents

The first court meeting after the new emperor ascended the throne took place for three hours. A series of major reform measures were announced at this court meeting. The reform measures made every official either excited or worried, and everyone knew his joys, sorrows, and joys, so that the news of giving salary increases to middle and lower-level officials was not taken seriously. The court meeting ended until the afternoon.

In the imperial study room, Zhang Huan was really exhausted, but the thick stack of memorials on the imperial desk seemed like an invisible whip whipping him from behind, making him afraid to slack off. After lunch, he started to review the memorials again.

"Your Majesty, Master Li is here." The eunuch An Zhongshun whispered to interrupt Zhang Huan's idea of ​​reviewing the memorials.

"Please come in." Zhang Huan then remembered that he had summoned Li Mi. He smiled apologetically and put down his pen. The court meeting that had originally planned for two hours was delayed to three hours, which meant that Li Mi had been waiting outside for more than an hour.

"Your Majesty!" Li Mi gave a deep bow after entering the house. He was still dressed in a Taoist dress, wearing apricot yellow gossip Taoist suit, a bamboo turtle crown, and a peach wood evil-proof sword on his back. His outfit appeared in the Daming Palace. Others didn't know him, and they thought he was the real person from the Thunder and One Cave in the Thunder and One Mountain that was invited to see Feng Shui and determine the direction, but they didn't know that he was now the emperor's number one aide. For example, the plan for the Land and Fields and Aoshima to rent medics at the court meeting today was the work of this man. If the governor of the world knew about this man's poison, he might have completely lost his plan for traveling for the rest of his life.

"Mr. Li, please sit down!" Zhang Huan smiled and personally poured him a cup of herbal tea to comfort the Taoist staff member who had been waiting for two hours under the scorching sun. "Mr. Li can have lunch? If not, I will ask the people below to prepare a little more."

Li Mi's lips were thirsty and had a stomach full of liver fire. Although the emperor poured him tea himself, he picked it up and drank a few big sips without hesitation. After the liver fire was extinguished, he felt a little reminiscent. He was so scared that he stood up and accused him, "I dare not work hard on Your Majesty, I have already used lunch."

"Sir is my father, so there is no need to be too polite in front of me."

Although the emperor is polite, Li Mi knows that Zhang Huan has many fathers! At least half of them are in the court. Isn’t it necessary to be too polite? The reason why Li Mi was able to be a commoner and retired to live a life like a wild crane under several generations of emperors was not only because his talents were outstanding, but also because he understood the psychology of the emperor very well. Although there were many emperors in history who respected the wise and the poor, most of them were just a gesture. The emperor could be respected by the wise, but the virtuous should not be arrogant. Just now, Li Mi waited for two hours under the scorching sun and was dizzy. He drank the tea poured by His Majesty in a daze. Although it was not a big deal for a while, if he was not relieved and continued to eat the meal invited by the emperor, he might have really gotten to be a real person in the XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Seeing that he refused to eat, Zhang Huan sat back and smiled, "I announced today that the Landlord served as the God of Wealth, which caused a great resounding sound in the court. I have ordered the Ministry of Personnel to promote a group of officials from all over the country, go to Beijing for three months to train, and then go to various places to take office. I have calculated that this matter can be completed before winter comes."

Li Mi also smiled and said, "In theory, the new system should be tried in one place for a few years at the beginning, and then implemented it nationwide after accumulating experience. However, Your Majesty is anxious about this matter, so I will not mention the trial matter. However, the principle of caution and caution should not be abandoned. I am most worried that the system itself is good, but when it comes to the specific implementer, it will change its flavor and cause harm to the people. Therefore, the supervision and rotation methods after the event must be kept up so that the system will not change due to the replacement of people."

Zhang Huan nodded silently, "The system will not change because of the replacement of people." Li Mi said this to the point. He pondered for a moment and said, "I plan to combine the method of land supervision with the censor's inspection and the inspection office's secret investigation. As for the rotation system, I plan to change the first three years to lay a solid foundation for them, and then change it every two years, and implement a departure review, including the censor's supervision and the civil servant's letter. Is it appropriate?"

Hearing the four words "Minister's Book", Li Mi couldn't help but sigh: "Your Majesty's thoughts are careful, and I am ashamed of myself."

"Sir, don't be humble." Zhang Huan smiled, and then said: "I invited Mr. Today to discuss the matter of laying off redundant officials. Of course, this should be discussed by the Political Affairs Hall, but I still want to ask Mr. to come up with an idea to achieve the goal, but without leaving any traces, and to leave all the laid off without saying anything. What good way do you have to teach me?"

Li Mi was silent for a moment. He knew that Zhang Huan's ousting officials was certainly because of the bloated government organization and serious matters, and the ruling of the people happened frequently, which made it difficult for government orders to be implemented, but on the other hand, he also wanted to take the opportunity of ousting officials to eliminate the power of the aristocratic families and make room for a large number of poor families to enter the government in the future. However, because the purging of the aristocratic families was very sensitive, he wanted to carry out the matter without any ostentatiousness. However, ousting officials involved all aspects of interests, so how could it be low-key? This really made Li Mi feel a little difficult.

After pondering for a long time, Li Mi finally said slowly: "I think no matter who you are, you must first set a principle so that people can convince you."

"I don't know what sir's principle means?" Zhang Huan asked without saying a word.

"Fair!" Li Mi finally said these two words with difficulty. He believed that Zhang Huan was a bit extreme in his mind. After all, most of the talents in the world were concentrated in aristocratic families. People should use their talents instead of their background. This is a broad-minded move. To drive good talents for the family is indeed a big loss. Moreover, the children of poor families are not a new famous family after decades of being high-ranking officials. Therefore, if you want to eliminate the influence of aristocratic families, improving the system is the long-term way.

"Fair?" Zhang Huan carefully chewed the meaning of these two words. Gradually, he began to understand Li Mi's painstaking efforts. After pondering for a long time, Zhang Huan reluctantly nodded, "Okay, I will do it according to the teacher's principles this time and use the method of exams to drive away the bad and keep the good."

Speaking of this, Zhang Huan smiled and said, "Since I became this emperor, I went out of the palace and roared the mountains and seas, and it was not as relaxed as before. Seeing that the department was about to be held, the talents in the world would gather in Chang'an. I would like to ask the sir to visit me secretly to see if I could find the talented people."

Li Mi also laughed and said, "I am willing to secretly visit the talented people for Your Majesty. In addition, I also suggest that this exam should be conducted using the famous system, first test the talent and then check morality to eliminate the possibility of secret operations."

Zhang Huan nodded. He had studied at the Zhang family's academy and knew the importance of being a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name for a name

It is indeed difficult to take into account both, but Zhang Huan considered the interests of poor families, and this suggestion could be submitted to the prime ministers for consultation.

At this moment, An Zhongshun's report came from the door, "Your Majesty, Pei Mingyuan is asking for a visit."

Zhang Huan was stunned. Today Pei Ying was going to go back to her parents' house to coordinate the dispute between the head of the Pei family. He didn't go back to the house and came to find him to do something. After thinking about it, Zhang Huan immediately ordered: "Put him to meet him!"

"Your Majesty summoned the Yin Qing Guanglu doctor Pei Mingyuan to meet him!"

Qing Guanglu Dafu is Pei Mingyuan's name for a scattered official. His official position is the Land and Land and Acres Supervisor, and he is from the third rank. However, if he needs to be transferred to the Ministry of Revenue for work, he will become the fourth rank lower rank. This is not a job transfer, but a demotion. Therefore, in order to prevent this situation, there is a rank supplement of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of

Although Pei Mingyuan was Zhang Huan's confidant and one of the five tigers in Longyou, he, like Du Mei and others, had never registered with the Ministry of Personnel. His position as Sima was a private teacher of Zhang Huan. To put it bluntly, he was an aide to work. Therefore, he was suddenly promoted to a third-rank land and acre supervision order. In order to prevent other officials from being dissatisfied and to ensure that his work can be carried out smoothly, Zhang Huan specially awarded him the Qing Guanglu doctor, which was equivalent to counting his previous experience in Longyou as his official qualifications.

In this way, Pei Mingyuan became a senior official second only to the prime minister. This kind of situation of becoming a new emperor ascended the throne. As for the influence of his status after his rise, he will talk about it slowly in the future.

After a moment, Pei Mingyuan hurried into the imperial study room under the leadership of the eunuch. Seeing that Li Mi was also there, he nodded slightly first, and then gave Zhang Huanshen a bow, "Since Pei Mingyuan, please see Your Majesty."

Zhang Huan smiled, "Our Landlord is here in such a hurry. Are you here to ask me if I want a Landlord Temple?"

Everyone in the room was amused by the emperor's humor, only the living man Dongfang Yun frowned slightly, but he wrote a sentence in his pen, "The new land and land supervisor was in the audience, and the emperor knew that he was worried about the official office."

At this time, Li Mi stood up and said goodbye: "Your Majesty, I will not disturb Your Majesty. Please give up."

Zhang Huan nodded, and after he left, he pointed to Pei Mingyuan and said, "Sit down!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Pei Mingyuan sat down and immediately said straight to the point: "I am anxious to come and have nothing to do with the land and land supervisor. I want to recommend someone who is proficient in Western military weapons. I think that since Your Majesty wants to prepare for the Great Food, he can contribute to Your Majesty's plan."

"Who do you want to recommend?" Zhang Huan's waist slowly straightened, his face was solemn.

"Do your Majesty still remember it? I once said that there was a man who had studied military weapons in the Dashi Army for many years."

"You mean." Zhang Huan suddenly understood who he was referring to.
