It's night, and the main hall of Tai Gongjia Temple is brightly lit./
Six people, Ji An, Zhang Tang, Yan Yi, Ning Cheng, Shang Rong, and Zhufu Yan, each took their respective positions, sitting upright next to each other, looking up at the prince above him.
Liu Che raised his hand slightly and looked at the six people present.
Although he has many ministers, there are only a handful of true confidants.
Among these six people, the real backbones are Ji An, Zhang Tang, and Yan Yi.
The other three are somewhat suspected of being cheating.
As for the lower level Zheng, Gu Zhenrou and others, they were somewhat similar to role players in later generations of the NBA.
This is a natural thing.
Any group has a pyramid structure, and the number of people decreases as you go up.
However, Liu Che was still a little dissatisfied.
After traveling through time and being reborn, I worked hard for so long, and with the dignity of a prince, I was able to collect so many talents, and I didn't even find a real outstanding person who didn't exist in my previous life, but who rose up in this life because of myself.
After thinking about it, Liu Che could only sigh, put this regret aside for the time being, looked at the ministers sitting attentively, and said: "Wu Ni's defeat has been decided, and both the government and the public are discussing the matter of changing the country and returning to the county. Please wait.
How should I deal with it alone?"
After Zhou Yafu made a surprise attack on Huaisi, he didn't have to be an idiot to realize that the defeat of the Wu-Chu coalition was imminent.
In such a situation, people are impetuous, and I don’t know how many people jumped out to start selling and claiming credit.
The most discussed topic is, of course, the reform of the country into counties.
It is natural and unquestionable that the Wu Kingdom of Wu King Liu Bi should be abolished.
However, should the Kingdom of Wu be divided into several parts and entrusted to the princes and princes? Or should they be divided into counties and counties directly under the central government?
In addition, although King Wu of Chu did not participate in the rebellion, many of his sons and his subordinates participated passively or actively. Should the King of Chu be held accountable? Can the Chu State continue to exist?
Over these issues, the government and the opposition were quarreling fiercely.
However, when Liu Che looked at the essence of the problem from the surface, he discovered that although these guys seemed to have different opinions, in fact, there were two factions wrestling with each other on the issue between Wu and Chu.
One faction is mainly composed of courtiers. Although they have various banners, generally speaking, they hope to abolish feudal states and change them into counties and counties to strengthen centralization of power.
The other faction is mainly composed of nobles, ministers, princes and brothers, and hopes to retain the feudal system of Wu and Chu.
This is easy to understand.
Naturally, courtiers hope that they can control more and more territory.
As for the nobles, ministers, princes and younger brothers, they are like rabbits dying and foxes grieving for their own kind.
Among them, several of Liu Che's brothers were jumping around.
The one who had the most fun jumping around was undoubtedly Changshan King Liu Fei.
In his previous life, this guy took advantage of the situation and occupied most of Liu Bi's feudal kingdoms. He established the Jiangdu Kingdom with Guangling as its capital.
It can be said that he was the person who profited the most from the Wu-Chu Rebellion.
But Liu Che didn't want to give him Jiangdu.
From Liu Che's point of view, it would be better for Liu Fei to stay where he is.
Brothers fighting tigers, father and son go into battle.
In the future Jiangdu Kingdom, Liu Che plans to leave it to his younger brother Liu Lan.
For Liu Che, there are many benefits for Liu Yan to be the king of Jiangdu.
First of all, Liu Lang obeyed the advice of his eldest brother, the prince, and transferred Liu Lang to Jiangdu. Then many of Liu Che's future plans could be carried out under the banner of King Jiangdu.
Secondly, the geographical location of Jiangdu is very important in the future. Whether he continues to develop Jiangnan or manages Mitsukoshi, or even activates the talent tree of great navigation, without Jiangdu's shipbuilding industry and shipbuilding craftsmen, Liu Che really can't do anything.
Therefore, Liu Che was determined to turn Liu Yan, the king of Hejian, into the king of Jiangdu.
But how?
Liu Yan had not done much for the country, and he did not have a good impression on the emperor's father. If he wanted to operate, it would be extremely difficult to seal him to Jiangdu.
Public opinion must be created first.
At the very least, there must be a cannon fodder who jumps out to advise the court and change the title of Liu Yan to the king of Jiangdu.
Therefore, Liu Che plans to leave this problem to his ministers to think about and consider. In short, he only wants Liu Yan to become the king of Jiangdu!
Therefore, Liu Che just paused for a moment, and without even giving the ministers a chance to speak, he said directly: "Gu Yi believes that the strategic position of the Wu Kingdom in the south of the Yangtze River is very important, and it must be entrusted to personally suppress it..." He paused
After a pause, he continued: "This time Wu Ni raised his troops, and the princes did not have the Qin King to march forward bravely. The King of Duliang fought bravely to kill the enemy for the sake of the country and the country. He knelt down to the six generals and entrusted him with a great responsibility. I respect you!"
When it comes to this, anyone who doesn’t understand is just stupid.
As the saying goes, you can know the elegant meaning by hearing the string song.
Zhang Tang was the first to react, and immediately came out to pay homage: "I have sent you my message to my family, I have heard from you that Tang Di is so beautiful, but I am so beautiful, and all people today are better than brothers. To prevent the story of Wu Ni from happening again."
When the time comes, I would like to ask the emperor to report to the emperor, and it is appropriate to praise the prince's brothers and feet..."
Liu Che had one mother and three brothers. As ministers, they knew that Liu Che did not have a good relationship with his eldest brother Liu Rong, but he had a deep brotherly love with his younger brother Liu Rong and was very close. Therefore, Yan Yi also came out and said:
"I believe that the king of Hejian, who is willing to be civilized and military, can be praised as the king of a great country. He can control the land of Wu and become a vassal of the Han Dynasty..."
Liu Che nodded with satisfaction and said: "I thank all the ministers and Miao Zan on behalf of the King of Hejian!" After saying this, he bowed and made it clear that Zhang Tang, Yan Yi and others were asked to find a way to implement Liu Yan's change of title.
This is just tea and appetizers before the meal.
Liu Che didn't think that with his support, instigating Guantao to come forward, and the momentum built by people like Zhang Tang, it wouldn't be possible.
Apart from other things, as long as he, the prince, expressed his intention to make Liu Yan the king of Jiangdu and take over most of Wu's territory, those officials who originally supported the counties would basically turn around and support Liu Che.
Especially the vote for Chao Cuo, the imperial censor, Liu Che could easily win.
Therefore, Liu Che stopped talking about this matter after he got up.
Instead, he sat down, looked at the ministers with a straight face, and said: "The day before yesterday, I entered the palace to meet the saint. My father said to me: In June of this year, I want to resume the examination. This time, the examination will be held.
The generals will appoint the Shaofu, the internal history, the imperial censors, the yamen, the prime ministers, the ministers, and the assistant officials, with a salary of more than one hundred stones and less than six hundred stones!"
Liu Che stood up and said proudly: "This time the examination is still led by Gu. The ministers from the Crown Prince's palace will take the examination together with the Shaofu, the internal history, the imperial censor, and the officials. Gu revealed a news that this time the admission quota will be determined."
There will be more, at least hundreds of officials will be hired!"
Liu Che focused on the word hundreds.
Indeed, hundreds of officials are hired at one time, even if they are more than one hundred dan or less than 600 dan, they are commonly called miscellaneous officials.
Where did such a big gap come from?
This time Liu Bi fell, and the Han family was in dire straits.
Basically all the landowners, nobles and officials in the more than 100 cities in the six counties and counties of Wu and Chu have to be purged, especially those who are rebellious. It is already a great blessing to be able to survive.
Such a big gap must be filled by someone.
As a result, the junior officials in the yamen in Chang'an who were usually depressed and frustrated were lucky.
Officials who usually perform slightly better and receive better performance evaluations have become prosperous this time.
Anyone with 100 shi can be turned into a county captain with 400 shi.
There are also quite a few people with 400 dan who have suddenly become county magistrates or even postal supervisors.
Of course, this matter has not been announced yet and will not be announced until everything is settled.
But there is no doubt that this is a huge change. (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!
