In the Chongzheng Hall, a brand-new map of Hedong was slowly unfolded and hung up by the chamberlains, and displayed in front of the Han Dynasty monarchs and ministers. Because for three generations, the local states and counties had been seriously damaged, the institutions were chaotic, and many people were not worthy of their names. Liu Chengyou had long been determined to control the world's states. The county had to reorganize the entire household, clear the fields and define the borders, and took the opportunity to reorganize the administrative planning starting from Hedong.

Liu Chengyou was present with senior officials from the Political Affairs Hall, the Privy Council, and the Third Department. There were two new faces, Privy Councilor Zhe Congruan and Deputy Minister Guo Rong. Needless to say, Guo Rong, after Guo Wei resigned from the Privy Council, Liu Chengyou thought about it. , after repeated consideration, Zhe Congruan, who had returned from the northwest for meritorious service, was placed in the position of Privy Envoy.

Prime Minister Li Tao stood in front of the map and introduced to Liu Chengyou: "Your Majesty, I have been ordered to redefine the prefectures and counties of Hedong Province. This is the preliminary order.

From north to south, the northern capital of Taiyuan is Chongding County, which governs Jinyang, Mengxian, Shouyang, Yuci, Qingyuan, Jiaocheng, Wenshui, Qixian and Taigu nine counties;

Xin was abolished, replaced by Erzhou, and Yanmen Prefecture was established, which governed Yanmen, Fanchou, Guoxian, Wutai, Xiurong, and Dingxiang counties, and governed Yanmen;

Feilan, Xian Erzhou, and Kelan Prefecture were established, with jurisdiction over six counties: Yifang, Langu, Ninghua, Hehe, Jingle, and Loufan, and governed Yifang;

Abandoned Prefecture, Lin Erzhou, and established Baode Prefecture, which governed the five counties of Fugu, Anfeng, Liangu, Xinqin, Yincheng, and Zhifu Valley;

Feishi Prefecture is Jinning Prefecture, which governs the six counties of Ninghe, Linquan, Fangshan, Dinghu, Lishi and Pingyi, and governs Lishi;

Liaozhou was abolished as Pingding Prefecture, which administered six counties: Pingding, Leping, Pingcheng, Heshun, Liaoshan and Yushe, and governed Pingding;

Fenzhou was renamed Fenyang Prefecture, which administered six counties: Xihe, Xiaoyi, Pingyao, Jiexiu, Lingshi, and Mianshang, and governed Xihe;

Lu was abolished and Qinzhou became Longde Prefecture, which administered nine counties including Wuxiang, Tongdan, Xiangyuan, Licheng, Shexian, Lucheng, Tunliu, Shangdang and Huguan, and governed Shangdang;

The two prefectures of Xi and Ci were abolished and became Daning Prefecture. The names of the three prefectures of Jin, Jiang, and Ze remained unchanged, and Huaizhou was merged into Heyang Prefecture.

After the restructuring, we have jurisdiction over ten prefectures, three prefectures, and a total of ninety counties on the east side of the Han River..."

Li Tao was talking and Liu Chengyou was listening. A series of names of prefectures and counties fell into his ears, but his eyes were fixed on the map. After pondering for a while, Liu Chengyou said: "Lu, Qin, Jin, Jiang, Ze, Huai, Heyang, The regulations will not be changed for the time being, but will be postponed until the former Hedong Jiedu jurisdiction is changed from a prefecture to a prefecture, and then adjustments can be made!"

"Yes!" Li Tao responded quickly.

Liu Chengyou then ordered: "The newly reformed prefecture and county officials should be implemented as soon as possible without affecting the local administrative operation, and be stable and not chaotic. Fan Zhi is in Jinyang, taking charge of the restructuring matters, cleaning up officials, and the personnel department should actively cooperate. In addition, The prefecture, Lin Er Prefecture has been changed to Baode Prefecture, and we will not appoint a prefect for the time being!"

"As you command!"

Liu Chengyou looked at Zhe Congruan and Guo Rong and said: "The land of Dai, Lan, Fu, and Lin is a border state, and the armies guarding the border should be changed and adjusted according to the trend, and additional military envoys should be appointed for defense. On the side of the Privy Council, draw up a plan Come out!"

"Yes!" Both responded.

"Such a change in Hedong will shock the world! At the local level, there should be more vacancies for officials, and the central government should also be prepared!" Liu Chengyou sighed.

After hearing this, Feng Dao said: "I have discussed with you that the officials in Hedong have been reviewed and evaluated, and those who pass can be retained. For the remaining vacancies, your Majesty can open a system for selection, announce the internal and external officials of the two kiosks, and pass the inspection to become political directors. His talents will be directly upgraded and promoted to the post of Hedong!"

"Just do it!" Without thinking much, Liu Chengyou agreed, and reminded: "Local academic administration has not undergone major changes in these years, so we should pay more attention to it. State, province, palace, and three-level examinations must continue to be implemented .This autumn, when the system is launched again, talents for government must be selected from scholars..."

"Your Majesty is wise and rules the world with royal principles, which is good news for the Han people!" Feng Dao said with a smile.

After the discussion was over, Liu Chengyou took out a list, held a pen between his fingers, and immersed himself in thought. There were more than seventy people on this list, all county officials in Hedong Prefecture, and they were involved in political affairs. One of these people The common characteristic is that they are all deeply involved with Liu Chong.

Of course, this has been reviewed, and either there is no bad deeds or some talents. What Liu Chengyou needs to consider is whether to retain these people, and how to use them. Although Liu Chong's matter was handled in a low-key manner, Yes, but Liu Chengyou inevitably had a thorn in his heart that affected his attitude towards these military and political officials.

After thinking about it for a while, Liu Chengyou quickly started writing, checking off those low-level people one by one and retaining them all. As soon as he started writing, there were more than ten people, who were a little upset.

His eyes fell on the judges under the Jiedu Mansion in Hedong who joined the army and conducted official affairs. Zheng Gong, Zhao Hua, Li Xiang, Wei Rong, and Wang Dezhong were the officials who were most closely involved with Liu Chong.

He also took out a report, which was a description of the talents, official reputation, and reputation of these talents. Wang Jingchong presented it.

After thinking for a long time, Liu Chengyou finally suppressed his unhappiness and chuckled to himself: "When did my mind become so small? As long as I have that ability, why bother with it?"

"Pass on Li Fang!"

Soon, Bachelor Li Fang came quickly and stood in the hall, waiting for instructions. Liu Chengyou waved the list in his hand and said: "Mingyuan, send this list to the Political Affairs Hall and give it to Li Tao. Tell him , Zheng Gong, the former Hedong Jiedu judge, retained Zhi Taiyuan, Zhao Huazhi Yanmen, Li Xiang, Wei Rong, and Wang Dezhong Jiedu officials were all transferred to Huainan Province, and all other prefecture and county officials were retained and assigned to their posts according to their talents! "

"yes!"

"Let Zhongshu issue an edict to Fan Zhi, let him deal with it well in Taiyuan, and straighten out the Hedong Road up and down for me!"

Compared with the government of civilians and punishments, it is easier for the army. There is no room for consideration for those who should be eliminated. With Zhao Kuangyin's acting style, he handled them very cleanly. The Privy Council has already received several letters from Hedong. Regarding the reorganization of the military.

Zhe Cong and Guo Rong both reported that Zhao Kuangyin was a talented person and had selected three thousand elite soldiers and was on his way south.

"Your Majesty, Wang Jingchong, the envoy of martial virtue, would like to see you!"

Since the Wude Secretary was rehabilitated, the frequency of Wang Jingchong's visits to the palace to report matters has increased significantly.

Hurrying in, Wang Jingchong looked a little solemn. After seeing the ceremony, he reported in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, a secret report from Xijing is urgent. The King of Taiyuan has passed away!"

"Huh! Huh?" Liu Chengyou raised his head, his brows suddenly furrowed, and his voice was a little higher: "What's going on? When did it happen? Their family is in Luoyang, and I'm afraid they haven't settled down yet!"

Wang Jingchong said: "Back to Your Majesty, the King of Taiyuan is old and frail. He also encountered a major change, and his mind and spirit were damaged. On the way westward, he had to go through a lot of fatigue on the way to Luoyang. He occasionally caught wind and cold, and he couldn't afford to fall ill, so he left that night! "

"If you encounter a big change, your mind and spirit will be damaged, and you will die of illness!" Liu Chengyou said angrily.

"Yes, I made a mistake!" Wang Jingchong hurriedly buried his head.

"I understand, please step back!" Liu Chengyou sighed and ordered.

Sitting alone at the imperial desk, Liu Chengyou calmed down for a while and said to Zhang Dejun: "When the funeral report arrives in Xijing, you can directly pass on my instructions to stay in Jingfan in Xijing and help take care of the affairs of Queen Taiyuan on behalf of the court."

"yes!"

Shaking his head slightly, Liu Chengyou couldn't help but sigh and murmured quietly: "I have been extra tolerant and spared your life so that you can enjoy your old age in peace. It's a pity that you don't have this blessing. I can't blame me for keeping you here. So. If you have many descendants and serve as filial piety, go with peace of mind..."
