People in the early Tang Dynasty: I compete with Wu Zhao for the throne

Chapter 1474: Stop and pay homage to the prime minister, in one day

In the Qianyang Palace, Li Zhi's face became serious, he looked at the ministers and said: "Next year, when I am enthroned in Zen, both the government and the public will be busy with political affairs. However, there are many things in the world, and we must not only focus on one of them, especially next year's imperial examination, which needs to be done early." Prepare.”

The ministers handed over their hands at the same time, but they were thinking in their hearts about what the current matter had to do with the imperial examination.

Li Zhi waved his hand, and Wang Fulai came to Li Xian again carrying a silver plate.

Li Xian bowed, received the imperial edict, then faced the ministers and read loudly: "In the second year of Yonglong's reign, at Renwu, in the twelfth month of Guichou, on the fifteenth day of Gengyin, the emperor Ruo said:
Yu Xi!

The position of a teacher is to be trained by the disciples, and the scholars must first select a wise man.

Huangmen Shilang, Cui Zhiwen, a third-rank disciple of Tongzhongshu, is straightforward, solemn and respectful, has a noble and pure nature, and is diligent in his work. He is respected in serving vegetables and more than encouraged in attacking wood.

After writing the third grade of Zhongshu's sect, he inspected the school and offered wine to the emperor, and worked with the officials to handle next year's scientific examination.

The honors and titles of scattered officials remain the same.

Admire this. "

After Li Xian finished speaking, Li Xuan, who was standing in the queue, couldn't help but change his expression slightly.

Stop looking.

Cui Zhiwen, the Minister of Huangmen and the third rank of Tongzhongshu, was dismissed from his position as the third rank of Tongzhongshu.

Cui Zhiwen did a good job, why did he suddenly give up?

Without the third rank of Tongzhongshu, Cui Zhiwen is just the Huangmen servant of the fourth rank.

According to the imperial system, there should be two ministers in the province under the clan, one is the minister of Huangmen, who is the third rank of Tongzhongshu, and the other is the minister of Huangmen, who is the fourth rank.

Before Cui Zhiwen became prime minister, he was Zuocheng, the minister of the fourth rank.

Now that he has been deposed to the third rank of Tong Zhongshu, his position is only a little better than that of Zuocheng, the minister.

Cui Zhiwen, who was in the queue, trembled slightly, then stepped forward with a solemn expression, and then bowed his head solemnly and said: "I thank your Majesty for your kindness. Your Majesty may live forever."

Cui Zhiwen knew in his heart that the emperor still had some affection for him.

The Imperial Son's sacrificial wine was of the third grade, so that his status in the court would not be too bad.

It's a place to retire.

Li Zhi nodded calmly and said: "Next year's imperial examination, there will be talented people in the court. Cui Xiang will pay close attention to me."

"Here!" Cui Zhiwen cupped his hands and then slowly retreated into the crowd of ministers.

"Go on." As soon as Li Zhi finished speaking, Wang Fulai stepped forward again.

Li Xian took out the imperial edict from the silver plate in front of him, and then read loudly to the ministers: "In the second year of Yonglong, the year of Renwu, the twelfth month of Guichou, looking at the fifteenth day of Gengyin, the emperor Ruo said :
Yu Xi!

He protected Fu in the Eastern Dynasty and was honored by all dynasties.

In the Han Dynasty, the famous Confucians were chosen, and they were appointed as Xian Shuguang.

When Jin seeks virtuous people, they choose Shantao.

Really invest in the talents of the Six Fus and use the principles of the Three Kindnesses.

Zhao Guogong, the right servant of Shangshu, shot Li Jingxuan. He was elegant and made a weapon. He was courteous and useful. He went out to lead important towns to command the princes; he entered a liao to serve as ministers.

After practicing at home and abroad, I have encountered difficulties and dangers. I have been diligent for more than thirty years.

But the prince's young master, the governor of Guizhou Province, maintained his honors and titles.

Admire this. "

After Li Xian finished reading the imperial edict, he looked at the ministers with shock on his face.

All the officials in the palace raised their hands at the same time: "I respectfully accept the imperial edict. May your Majesty live forever."

……

Lowering her head, Li Xuan took a breath.

Although Li Jingxuan's resignation as prime minister had been expected for a long time, when it actually came, it was still quite shocking.

Ever since Shangshu Zuopushe Liu Rengui was promoted to Crown Prince Taifu and Shangshu Youpushe Li Jingxuan left the court, there has been no one in Shangshu Province who can really speak in the political hall.

The emperor now completely dismissed Li Jingxuan's Shangshu Youpushe, and the Shangshu Province was completely empty.

Li Xuan wanted to know what the emperor would do next, whether he would let someone succeed him as minister, or whether it would remain vacant in the future.

The ministers are also paying attention.

There were slight footsteps, and Wang Fulai came to Li Xian with a silver plate.

Li Xian took a deep breath, picked up the imperial edict again, and read: "In the second year of Yonglong's reign, on the day of Renwu, in the twelfth month of Guichou, on the fifteenth day of Gengyin, the emperor Ruo said:
Yu Xi!

The root of all things belongs to the Secretary Hui, and the master of hundreds of officials belongs to me.

Therefore, after considering the details of the name and reality, referring to the 2nd Annals, and choosing the virtues and labors, this is the reason.

Zhongshu Ling, Yinqing Guanglu doctor, Xue Yuanchao, the Marquis of Shangzhu Kingdom and Fenyin County, was loyal and respectful to his friends, generous and persevering, and wrote poems for classics and Tao strategy for weft.

Words can be followed by deeds, courage must be benevolent, trustworthiness must not be ungrateful, and wisdom can come from Cai.

Guyi was the deputy chief of Wenchang and the general Zhou official. He still served as the commander of the army and was responsible for Fangyu.

But Shangshu's right servant shot, and the rest was as before.

Admire this! "

Xue Yuanchao looked surprised, stepped forward quickly, and kowtowed to the emperor: "Your Majesty, Xue Yuanchao, thank you for your kindness."

Li Zhi nodded and said: "The Shangshu Province has many affairs. From today on, you have to shoulder the burden."

"Here!" Xue Yuanchao handed over his hand again, and then returned to the train with an excited expression.

Going from Zhongshu Ling to Shangshu Youpushe is equivalent to taking a step closer to Shangshu Zuopushe.

This made Xue Yuanchao, who had been under the most pressure from Pei Yan, finally breathe a sigh of relief.

……

Standing in the queue, Li Xuan looked thoughtful.

Xue Yuanchao was transferred from Zhongshu Order to the right servant of Shangshu, which is not necessarily a good thing.

Shangshu Youpushe is the second in command of Shangshu Province.

Zhongshu Ling is the top leader of Zhongshu Province.

No, although Xue Yuanchao was a Zhongshu Ling, in fact, there was still a Zhongshu Ling like Liu Shenli in the Zhongshu Province.

It was only because Liu Shenli led the army to conquer the Western Regions that Xue Yuanchao, who was second to Liu Shenli in Zhongshu Ling, was transferred to Shangshu Youpushe. In fact, he had always been the second in command.

Xue Yuanchao is not a very strong person, but he is meticulous in handling things. In addition to his youth, he is not yet sixty, so he is indeed at his most youthful and powerful.

He transferred him to the right servant of Shangshu, and everything in the world finally started to run normally. However, Xue Yuanchao was transferred from Zhongshu Ling to Shangshu Youpushe, and Zhongshu Liang Liu Shenli was fighting in the Western Regions. Now there is no Zhongshu Ling in the court.

How could the DPRK lack Zhongshu Ling?

Li Xuan couldn't help but raise her head.

Sure enough, Wang Fulai came to Li Xian again with a silver plate.

Li Xian had already anticipated something, so he picked up the imperial edict and continued to read: "In the second year of Yonglong's reign, on the day of Renwu, in the twelfth month of Guichou, on the fifteenth day of Gengyin, the emperor Ruo said:
Yu Xi!

Ji Xi is in charge of government, and the emperor is brilliant.

Macromorality and prosperous picture, regulating yin and yang and leveling the latitude of the scenery.

I only seek the old, and people can do the same.

He is on the right track and a veteran with real capital.

Pei Yan, the son of Hedong County and an official in the imperial court, was known for his beautiful stars, bright mountains, and his literary talents.

Bear the long-term strategy of the country, and cherish the sincerity of the country.

But the order was issued, and the official titles and honors remained the same.

Admire this! "

Although Pei Yan had expected it, he still couldn't help but feel happy.

Quickly walking out of the train, Pei Yan stood in the hall, kowtowed deeply and said: "I thank your Majesty for your kindness. Your Majesty may live forever!"

……

Li Zhi sat above him and looked at Pei Yan calmly. When he looked up and down and noticed that someone noticed something strange, Li Zhi slowly said: "Zhongshu Ling, I see you in the palace, Ren Zhengzhong, you can't do any worse, Pei Qing , you have to understand.”

Pei Yan's heart sank, and he cupped his hands and said: "I will obey the holy order."

"Yeah!" Li Zhi nodded lightly.

Pei Yan then stood up, held his hands and returned to the train.

Li Xuan saw clearly from the side that Pei Yan's face looked slightly ugly at this moment.

Zhongshu Ling is not something ordinary people can do.

During Li Xuan's years in the court, the Zhongshu Ling he met included Hao Chujun, Li Jingxuan, Liu Shenli, Xue Yuanchao, and Pei Yan.

Hao Chujun has always been known for his iron bones. Even when facing Empress Wu, he would not give in.

Li Jingxuan and Liu Shenli worshiped the prime minister based on their military merits, and were not close to or opposed to Empress Wu.

Xue Yuanchao was a relative of the emperor and a child, so he naturally felt confident when talking to Empress Wu.

Although it is not necessary to fight against Empress Wu, at least Empress Wu will not bully Dong Gong too much.

Now that Pei Yan is serving as the Secretary of the Central Committee, he will inevitably have a head-on collision with Empress Wu.

With his own temperament, he would not give in easily, and the emperor also used various small details today to tell him that he would not allow him to give in.

Pei Yan's life will be difficult in the future for this Zhongshu Ling.

Li Xuan looked at Wang Dezhen.

Today, in the Zhongshu Province, only Wang Dezhen is left as the Huangmen Shilang, with the third rank of the Zhongshu sect, then...

……

Li Xian opened the imperial edict and said in a deep voice: "In the second year of Yonglong's reign, in the year of Renwu, in the twelfth month of Guichou, on the fifteenth day of Gengyin, the emperor Ruo said:
Yu Xi!

The importance of being a prime minister and a helper was sent by Tao Rong. When using harmonics to look forward to it, one must borrow the prime name.

The official under discussion is Wang Dezhen, Huangmen's assistant minister. He is well-dressed and well-dressed. He is an official in the temples and pavilions, and has made famous utensils for a long time.

But in the service, the official titles and honors remain the same.

Admire this! "

Wang Dezhen walked out of the queue, kowtowed deeply and said: "I thank your Majesty for your kindness. May your Majesty live forever!"

"Get back on your feet." Li Zhi spoke softly, looking at Wang Dezhen and said: "The responsibilities of the subordinates are to cashier the emperor's orders, to monitor the emperor's affairs, to be the chief official, to praise the ministers and etiquette, to bring peace to all nations, to carry out general affairs, and to assist the emperor. As for the great ruler, Wang Qing, please don’t let me down.”

"I will live up to your Majesty's entrustment when I accept the decree." Wang Dezhen bowed his hands solemnly, and then retreated to the group of ministers.

The ministers thought for a moment and roughly understood what had happened.

Xue Yuanchao transferred him to the right servant of Shangshu, which was equivalent to supporting the authority of Shangshu Province.

Pei Yan was transferred from a servant to Zhongshu Ling. There was actually not much difference from being in charge of Menxia Province to being in charge of Zhongshu Province.

Wang Dezhen was promoted from Huangmen Shilang to Shizhong, which is equivalent to taking charge of a province. Even if he has an uncle-nephew relationship with Pei Yan, it will definitely be difficult to get along with Pei Yan in the future.

Li Xuan lowered his head.

He already understood that the root cause of all the emperor's actions was the result of the election of the Minister of Rites that day.

There, many people's thoughts were exposed involuntarily.

It is reasonable for the emperor to adjust accordingly.

Li Xuan's eyes flashed. He had tricked Pei Yan and pushed Wang Dezhen. Li Yiyan naturally had no hope of promotion, while Cui Zhiwen had tricked himself.

The emperor clearly saw that the current layout of the Secretariat was unreasonable, so he made adjustments.

Especially between Pei Yan and Wang Dezhen, the only thing that can really make two close relatives fall out is power.

The emperor knew his way very well, and with one hand, the situation in Zhengshitang was restored to balance in the shortest possible time.

Everything returned to the emperor's hands.

Li Xuan sighed softly, her body dim.

Now that Pei Yan has been promoted to Zhongshu Ling, Dong Palace lacks more motivation to win over him.

Even if there were any tricks done to Cui Mi, it is no longer suitable to take them out at this time.

If you really want to use it forcefully, not only will you not get the expected effect, but it will have the opposite effect.

It's time to stop, and you should be exposed in the middle of the action.

……

Li Xuan's expression became solemn, and she raised her eyes slightly, looking at Li Xian who picked up the imperial edict again.

He was a little confused. Why is today's adjustment not over yet?
