Chapter 347 Banghua Officials

The seats in the main hall of Wenhua Hall are facing the dragon throne and the imperial table, and are placed horizontally.

It is divided into nine columns and three rows. The nine ministers all sit in the first row, and the left and right ministers of each ministry sit behind the ministers.

At this time, Liu Sheng was sitting on the dragon throne, and he could see everyone's expressions clearly at a glance.

Although there are not all the assistant ministers in the nine departments, there are all the ministers.

Counting from the left hand side of Liu Sheng, they are Li Changwen, the Minister of Civil Affairs, Qian Qianyi, the Minister of Rites, He Yingrui, the Minister of the Ministry of Industry, Qian Yunsheng, the Minister of Finance, Zhang Youyu, the Minister of Civil Affairs, Song Chen, the Minister of Criminal Justice, Luo Huaiyu, the Minister of the Patrol Department, Hou Tongzeng, Minister of Communications, and Mu Yunliang, Minister of Health.

Among them, only He Yingrui, Zhang Youyu, and Hou Dongzeng were surrendered by the Ming Dynasty, and Qian Qianyi was not included. After all, he had already been deprived of citizenship by Emperor Chongzhen when he surrendered.

The remaining people basically joined the Wei tribe in Runing Mansion earlier.

Not to mention Qian Yunsheng and Luo Huaiyu.

Song Chen was originally the canon historian of Ruyang County. He was one of the officials who surrendered to Ruyang immediately after the Wei army invaded Ruyang City. After that, he assisted Li Changwen in handling large and small cases in Ruyang and even other places. He worked conscientiously and had a high rate of solving cases.

Later, the Ministry of Justice established the Criminal Trial Department, and he served as the chief, and then served as the left minister of the Ministry of Punishment. Now it is natural to be appointed as the Minister of Punishment in Da'ei.

As for Mu Yunliang, Minister of Health, he also served for the Ministry of Health as early as the Ruyang period. Previously, he served as Bai Taiwei's deputy in the Ministry of Health, and he was regarded as the official who built the Ministry of Health from scratch.

Now that Bai Taiwei has become Concubine Hui and is no longer in charge of the Ministry of Health, Mu Yunliang has been promoted to Shangshu.

Liu Sheng pays great attention to efficiency in meetings, and as the founding monarch of the country, he has extremely high prestige, so this Government Affairs Council meeting was completed quickly.

In addition to Li Changwen serving as the general political counselor, Liu Sheng appointed four more political counselors after this meeting.

Qian Qianyi was in charge of the affairs of the Etiquette Department and the Ministry of Industry; Qian Yunsheng was in charge of the affairs of the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Civil Affairs; Song Chen was in charge of the affairs of the Criminal Trial Department and the Patrol Department; Hou Tong was in charge of the affairs of the Ministry of Transportation and the Ministry of Health.

In addition to the affairs of the Ministry of Personnel, Li Changwen can have an overview of the affairs of various ministries of the Government Affairs Council.

In addition, among the five, only Li Changwen has the assignment of "assisting in charge of military aircraft affairs" and can participate in military aircraft meetings. The others who participate in politics do not have this right.

In other words, these five people only have a fraction of the power of the former Ming Dynasty cabinet...

After the meeting of the Government Affairs Council was held at the Wenhua Hall, Liu Sheng took some members of the Secretariat and headed to the Wuying Hall without stopping.

Corresponding to the situation of the Government Affairs Council, Liu Sheng arranged all the departments and offices under the Government Affairs Council around Wuying Palace, so all relevant meetings of the Military Affairs Council were held in Wuying Palace.

When Liu Sheng arrived at Wuying Hall, there was still one hour before the scheduled meeting time, so he met with one person first.

"Li Banghua, a common man, comes to see His Majesty."

"Mr. Li, please get up." As he spoke, Liu Sheng went down and personally helped Li Banghua up, then pointed to the seat in the hall and said, "Mr. Li, please sit down."

Li Banghua didn't know Liu Sheng's habit of talking to others, so he was a little flattered for a moment.

At first, Li Banghua came to Nanjing with Liu Tongsheng, Yang Tinglin and other Jiangxi celebrities, just to take a look, and he was not interested in becoming an official.

But what he saw along the way, coupled with the various things he saw after staying in Nanjing for a few days, made him change his mind and decide to pursue an official career.

Liu Sheng had known Li Banghua for a long time and knew that this man was quite talented in army building. In history, he had reorganized the Beijing and Nanjing camps of the Ming Dynasty successively, and despite many difficulties, the Beijing camps of the Ming Dynasty barely had a little combat effectiveness.

It was a pity that he had bad luck and finally chose to die for his country when the capital was captured by the Chu army.

Therefore, Liu Sheng was quite surprised to learn that Li Banghua intended to become an official.

He looked at Li Banghua and saw that his hair was gray, so he couldn't help asking: "Mr. Li, do you respect Geng?"

"The grassroots are already sixty-nine."

"The old gentleman should take good care of his health." "Thank you for your concern, your Majesty, the common people are still in good health."

After a few simple greetings, Liu Sheng went straight to the topic and said: "I know that Mr. Li once reorganized the South Beijing Camp of the Ming Dynasty and has a lot of experience in army construction.

Now that I am willing to be an official, why not take up the post of Zuo Shilang of the Military and Political Department in the Military Academy. While understanding the situation of our army, I can also help me handle some military and political affairs. how? "

Li Banghua did not expect Liu Sheng to be so direct, but since he decided to become an official, he was not modest either.

After all, he is already sixty-nine. If he does not have the courage to do his job, he may not have the energy in a few years.

So he responded: "Your Majesty, Li Banghua, please accept the order and thank me!"

Liu Sheng said: "Today's military affairs meeting is still half an hour away. Why don't Li Qing talk to me about his views on the army and the situation in the world?"

"Yes."

Li Banghua responded, then started chatting with Liu Sheng with a bit of restraint.

During this conversation, Liu Sheng discovered that Li Banghua's talent in military construction was higher than he expected, and he also had a lot of high-level and overall experience, which was what officials from the Guibei lacked.

Li Banghua was even more surprised by Liu Sheng's conversation and knowledge.

This reminded him of a rumor he heard - Liu Shengnai was banished to the world.

He had scoffed at this rumor before, but now he believed it. Otherwise, it would be difficult to explain how Liu Sheng could have such broad knowledge at the age of [-] or [-].

By the end of the conversation, Li Banghua had regarded Liu Sheng as a living saint like Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty. He believed that assisting such a saint to create a prosperous age comparable to that of the Han and Tang Dynasties was much better than being loyal to Zhu Ming. He felt sorry for the official in his heart. I no longer feel guilty about what happened, but instead I am full of passion for doing something big.

So he ignored Liu Sheng's suspicion and said: "Your Majesty, I would like to recommend some talents."

Liu Sheng smiled after hearing this and said, "Li Qing, tell me quickly, I am very hungry for talents now."

"The first person I want to recommend is Zhu Dadian, the former Governor of Fengyang in the Ming Dynasty. This person has considerable military strategy and experience in leading troops. Your Majesty may call him to serve in the Military Affairs Council."

Liu Sheng had already known Li Banghua's interpersonal relationships in detail through Xiuyiwei and Xunfengwei. He thought he would recommend Yang Tinglin and other fellow villagers first, but he unexpectedly recommended Zhu Dadian first.

Liu Sheng also knew something about this person.

Zhu Dadian was a native of Jinhua, Zhejiang Province. He was a Jinshi in the 1616th year of Wanli Dynasty ([-]). He served successively as magistrate of Daming County, military affairs department, deputy envoy to the inspection, political participation, governor, and governor. He led troops to suppress bandits and imperial bandits many times.

He not only resisted the Dutch pirates, but also suppressed the rebellion and suppressed the bandits. Unfortunately, he finally overturned when he was the governor of Fengyang.

Compared with the governors and governors of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Dadian did have some military talents. The most important thing was that he had served in Fujian for many years and had experience in resisting Dutch pirates. He was indeed worth using.

Liu Sheng then said: "If this person is willing to serve as an official, I will certainly not hesitate to use him in an important way."

Li Banghua said: "Your Majesty, please rest assured. I had some friendship with Zhu Dadian in the past. A letter will definitely convince him to become an official."

"This is great." Liu Sheng said happily, "Besides Zhu Dadian, does anyone else recommend Li Qing?"

Li Banghua hesitated slightly and then said: "My fellow countrymen Yang Tinglin, Wan Yuanji, Liu Tongsheng and Li Mingrui are all talented. Your Majesty may summon them to see them."

　Second more.

　　Good night~
