Zhao Gao held the imperial edict in his hand and read out Lu Yu's decree.
Li Si was granted the title of Grand Bachelor of Zhongji Palace, and he was granted the title of Chief Assistant of the Cabinet.
Pei Tianguang was granted the title of Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, a bachelor of Jianji Palace, and an official title of Second Assistant to the Cabinet.
Cheng Jin was granted the title of Bachelor of Wenhua Palace.
Zhang Xuance was granted the title of Minister of Rites and Bachelor of Wuyingdian.
Fuzhixue was granted the title of Bachelor of Wenyuan Pavilion.
In addition, there was Liu Bingzhong, Minister of Industry, who was awarded the title of Bachelor of Dongge University.
The original chief minister Yang Shouyi retired from old age and returned to his hometown. Lu Yu gave this veteran-level minister a very high salary and personally saw him off. He even inscribed the word "Wen Zhong" on the spot as a gift.
Yang Shouyi.
This was an extremely honorable favor. Witnessed by countless ministers, Yang Shouyi was helped by his disciples and grandsons to board the spaceship and slowly disappeared from the Tianmen of the Imperial Capital.
The departure of Yang Shouyi is the end of an era.
This is a typical representative of the old guard, and with his departure, the entire government will undergo earth-shaking changes.
Compared with Yang Shouyi's departure, everyone's focus is on the selection of the chief minister of the cabinet.
Lu Yu directly identified Li Si as the chief minister of the cabinet without anyone's consultation.
Although many people had already thought of this appointment, they still couldn't accept it after learning the answer.
The strongest reaction was from the Dongsheng Party.
Many Qianlong Army generals followed Pei Tianguang, but now Pei Tianguang only occupies the position of second assistant, which many people cannot accept.
For them, Pei Tianguang, who was the leading figure in Dongsheng Galaxy in the past, now has to live under a young boy, which is intolerable to many people.
"Go to the cabinet and ask Li Si face to face."
"He has only been following His Majesty for a long time, and he still dares to claim arrogance. Why?"
A group of military generals from the Mainland Party rushed toward Wenyuan Pavilion aggressively, but were stopped by Lu Jingsheng midway.
"Don't forget the gift His Majesty gave you."
Lu Jingsheng's face was cold and he actually suppressed all the military officials of the Lu Party.
Lu Yu's number one military figure showed his majesty for the first time, and no one dared to refute him.
Many military officials were frightened. Although they were unwilling to do so, they also understood that this was Lu Yu's plan. They dared to draw their swords against Li Si, but they did not dare to point their spears at Lu Yu.
Qiankun Hall, court meeting.
Li Si and a group of ministers discussed the method of strengthening the country.
"At present, prices in various places have basically stabilized, and most of the places destroyed by the previous wars have been renovated and improved. However, most of the areas are still in a state of desolation, with large areas of land abandoned, and many people even displaced and exiled to other places.
"
A minister asked Li Si: "Master Chief Assistant, I wonder if you have any good ideas?"
"His Majesty tried many methods during the march to Dongsheng, and the implementation at the local level was quite effective."
Li Si looked calm: "Work-for-relief, as long as people have a livelihood, can earn enough to support their families, and can prevent homeless people from turning into bandits and interfering with public order."
"First of all, the government must absorb refugees on a large scale, whether they are monks or mortals, and they must be useful. In addition, there are government-owned sects, especially those in industries such as steel, coal, spiritual mines, and weapon casting, all of which employ people.
Places with a large number of refugees must also absorb refugees."
The minister asked again: "The official sect has heard about it, but they were formerly from the foreign sect, so they will inevitably have some quack habits. How can they be used?"
Li Si said calmly: "These sects naturally need someone to restrain them. I have already asked Your Majesty to build two new Yamen to restrain the sects of merchants and officials."
Under the astonished gazes of all the ministers, Li Si took out an imperial edict that had been prepared long ago.
Holy edict.
The General Investment Promotion Bureau was established, with Wei Zhong as the investment eunuch, responsible for businessman investment and many other matters.
The General Administration of Assets was established, with Liu Jin as the asset supervising eunuch, who was responsible for controlling various tasks of the officials and sects.
