Datang infinite pretense system

"His Royal Highness, Sun Qian asks to see you!"

What this guy was doing at this time, he was very puzzled.

"come in!"

When the two appeared, Li Chengqian wondered, it turned out to be Zheng Tian.

I thought to myself, what is Zheng Tian doing here?

"Sun Qian, why are you bringing Zheng Tian here?"

"His Royal Highness, I brought him here tonight because I have something to ask His Royal Highness."

"Say!"

"After the trial production, it is estimated that a thousand stones of refined salt will enter Chang'an tomorrow, but our transport capacity is insufficient, so I thought of Zheng Tian. When I talked to Zheng Tian, ​​he agreed and said that he would also come to see His Highness the Crown Prince. , so here it comes.”

Zheng Tian said straightly: "That's it. I heard that His Royal Highness needs chariots and horses, so my Zheng family has some chariots and horses around Chang'an for you to use. I hope His Royal Highness will not dislike you."

Li Chengqian saved Zheng Tian's life, so the Zheng family did not participate in the alliance of the eldest grandson Wuji this time, and of course there was also the Lu family.

"Oh? It's rare that you have such a heart, which makes me feel very relieved! But for the court affairs, and privately speaking, there is no reason for you to help us."

Li Chengqian's words changed Zheng Tian's expression, after all, he was rejecting him.

"However... you can properly collect some money from the court, and I agree!"

In the end, Li Chengqian didn't want Zheng Tian to pay back the favor, if he took the money, it wouldn't count as paying back the favor, after all, there will be times when he will be needed in the future.

In addition, public and private needs to be distinguished. Now he is doing things for Datang, not for Li Chengqian himself, so there is no reason to let his favor be mixed with Datang.

Zheng Tian understood, and said: "I think it will work, then I will take this order at a lower cost than the market!"

"feasible!"

In this way, everyone is happy.

"Alright, let's go down and get ready! Tomorrow's salt must be on the market, so let's do it in the market in Anlefang for the time being!"

After all, it belonged to the government, and he didn't dare to say that he sold it with Fengtang Commercial Bank, because public and private must be distinguished.

At the same time, he let Zou Fengchi's soybean oil also choose to sell tomorrow, which is equivalent to driving traffic for himself, so it will definitely sell out tomorrow!

So the two withdrew from the East Palace.

Chapter 234 Personal Awareness (Second Change)

morning of the second day

Some people may think that the emperor is not tired every day?

But what I want to tell you here is that in the Tang Dynasty, going to court was like clocking in at work. You took a break every ten days.

After all, the time for officials to go to court is quite long, but there is no way, the Tang Dynasty has just started, and there are many things, who will let them be officials?

This is also a faster way for the ruler to know the world's major events.

Li Chengqian is already familiar with the road today, he is still on the dragon chair, listening to the reports of the ministers.

First of all, he said: "Now let's review the content of yesterday's morning court. Regarding the assessment yesterday, did Duke Lai set any rules?"

Only by reporting the results of what happened yesterday can we follow up better.

Du Ruhui came out and said, "His Royal Highness, I have made two plans for the civil and military officials."

"Say!"

"The assessment of civil servants is as follows: first, literary attainments; second, governance ability, we will eliminate the bottom rank, and only evaluate officials below the fourth grade!"

The meaning of his words is that the great hero is safe, and the fourth-rank official is not small.

"Well, these two points can indeed reflect a certain amount of talent! To prevent some people from fishing in troubled waters! Sure!"

Li Chengqian said so, and glanced at Zhang Liang by the way. At this time, he was demoted two levels in a row, which was completely within the scope of the assessment. He still hoped that he would be eliminated.

There are civil servants, but what about military officers?Li Chengqian then asked: "Tell me about the military officer's assessment method!"

"Yes! Military officers have different assessment standards, so I have made some changes. The merits and years of office will be reviewed to see if the official position matches. If it is hand-picked by His Majesty, it will pass the assessment directly. If it is an official promotion, everything will be re-examined. .If you have not passed the examination, all will be judged based on martial arts, and the bottom tenth will be directly demoted to the first level. One more point, this is only the assessment for officials below the fifth rank!"

"I don't think this is enough. It's better to go down to the next level and go directly to the candidates, and then come back to compete after they have improved their martial arts. How about returning to their original posts after that?"

This is simply a drastic reform!Because of the assessment of military generals below the fifth rank, and in the early morning, there are generally no officials below the fifth rank, so there is not much opposition.

"According to His Royal Highness!"

Du Ruhui said.

"What else do you think about the assessment?"

After Li Chengqian said that, it was difficult for everyone to say anything.

Li Chengqian didn't give them too much time, so he said directly:

"Okay! The assessment will start tomorrow, and you are allowed to cram for a while! If you study well, you may pass the assessment!"

The purpose of doing this can make Datang stronger, so that some people who fish in troubled waters have nowhere to hide.

Li Chengqian looked around, some people here didn't dare to look at him.

"The next thing is about the private salt official operation."

When he finished speaking, Pei Ji stood up.

"His Royal Highness, as soon as yesterday's news came out, the entire Chang'an City's salt became very scarce. Now there is no salt to buy in Chang'an City. I suggest that you should slow down now, and you can't suffer the common people!"

Pei Ji's starting point is well chosen, putting the people first, speaking in human terms, he is anxious for the people, which is good, but you can't starve the people and feed the Wang family!That's not okay!

Zhang Liang also came out and said: "Yes, His Royal Highness, salt is the foundation of people's livelihood, because there is no salt, and now the people are complaining, which may cause social turmoil!"

The consequences of the two people's magnification were to make Li Chengqian give up, but their calculations were wrong, and they had no intention of giving up from the beginning.

When Li Chengqian heard this, he felt displeased with them. He thought to himself, I have thought of a way, your intelligence is really weak.

Then said:

"You two lovers, you are really worried about the people. If you don't send you to the bottom, I'm really sorry for your hard work. This king is very happy, you have this awareness! How about this, this king will send you two to go to the lower level. Starting today, go to appease the hearts of the people and make no mistake, if the appeasement is not good, this king will be angry!"

As soon as these words came out, both Pei Ji and Zhang Liang were taken aback.
