Crown Tang emperor

On this day, it is clear that all kinds of ceremonies and ceremonies are going on as usual, but the feelings of internal and external officials are different.The officers and soldiers of the Forbidden Army staying directly inside the palace gate only felt that the Chaoji Drum Order had just sounded, and there were already crowds gathered outside the palace gate, and it was quite noisy.

The officials gathered outside the palace felt that the opening of the palace gate was much slower than usual today, and even the imperial bridge that entered the palace seemed to be longer than in the past. At the time, a thin layer of sweat floated up in each of their clothes, and the panting sound was more rapid than usual.

However, how do the officials feel, the saint still went to the palace to pay his respects.When the officials of ceremonies were calling names outside the hall and all the officials entered the hall, Li Tong leaned down on the imperial banquet in the hall and looked down, only to see that the movements of the courtiers were more agile and faster than usual. , the more the class is in the latter, the more obvious this trend will be.

Of course Li Tong understood the reason, and couldn't help but smile for a while.Strangers run around all day long, all they want is food and clothing, even the officials who are in charge of the dynasty are no exception.

Seeing this uncommon scene in the past, Li Tong couldn't help but feel more clearly the meaning of Enlu's support.

Today's court has no tricks involved, and caters to the wishes of the masses. After the officials ascended the court and made the ceremony, Yao Yuanchong, the servant of Zhongshu, came out to play and invited Ge Fuyuan and Zhu Jingze to play.

The two of them didn't say much nonsense after they came out of work and kowtowed, and began to state the general affairs of the Gouyuan in the past period of time. They checked and inspected more than 270 items of financial affairs of the various divisions, and the money involved was nearly [-] million yuan. , There were more than [-] cases of corruption in various investigation departments, more than [-] supervisors were involved, more than [-] people were arrested, and more than [-] cases were transferred to Dali Temple.

The sage and the prime ministers of the Zhengshitang already understood the specific results of the matter yesterday, and they are still able to remain calm for now.But the officials in the palace couldn't help being amazed after hearing this exaggerated data.

The rituals of the court meeting are also part of the monitoring scope of the Yushitai. After hearing the frequent noises in the main hall, Zhu Jing, the Yushi Zhongcheng, subconsciously turned his head to inspect, but because he is currently on duty, he cannot turn left and right. Looking around, he only shook the beard under his chin, and from the corner of his gaze, he saw that the Shi Yushi on the side case was writing hard, and then he pursed his mouth in satisfaction.

Although the court meeting's disrespect was a minor crime, the data reported by the Gouyuan were too astonishing, and the courtiers couldn't hold back their astonishment.

I have already heard about the money matters in the check this time, but I can accept it now.However, the data related to various corruption cases really challenge people's ability to bear.

The so-called supervisors are supervisors and chief guardians. These are the two concepts in the "Tang Law Shuyi" to punish officials for malfeasance and violation of the law.

Jianlinguan is the chief officer of the department, such as ministers, ministers of various ministries, grand ministers and Shaoqing of various temples, and officials such as governors, orders, and ministers of prefectures and counties.The chief guardian is the official in charge of specific affairs, such as the Taicang Order, Zuo Zang Order, and the Cao judges and Zhang Gu who guard the mansion.

These two types of officials basically control more than [-]% of the decision-making and execution powers of their divisions, so they naturally have to bear corresponding responsibilities.Where something goes wrong, they are naturally the first to be held accountable.

Gouyuan checked the government office documents related to the financial affairs of Jing Sifan, and the number of supervisors who were held accountable alone reached more than 300 people.This means that almost all the inspected departments have problems, but the cases involved are different in size and cannot be fully known.

Many courtiers thought about it in their hearts, and they couldn't help but gasped, and their hearts were secretly awe-inspiring.Right now, the checks by the institute are only related to financial matters, and other unrelated government agencies are lucky enough to pass.However, if the scope of the inspection by the procuratorate is further expanded, can those people outside the matter guarantee complete due diligence compliance?

Thinking of this, everyone couldn't help looking at the supervisory officials of the finance department. After a little sizing, they found that there were many faces missing. They were probably dealing with inquiries from Dali Temple right now, and perhaps some of them had already begun to judge their crimes.

Sensing the change in the atmosphere of the court meeting, Li Tong felt a little joy in his heart. He could imagine that Gouyuan's report really poured a basin of cold water on the hearts of the slightly impetuous court scholars.

It is true that Gouyuan found a lot of problems, but the seriousness of the matter was not as big as the officials imagined. Most of the more than 300 wardens were affected by the affairs under their jurisdiction, and not many of them had subjective criminal records.

Kaiyuan politics has been maintained for several years. Although it cannot guarantee that the officials are as clean as water, it is by no means a mixed bag of fish and dragons, and the overall integrity of officials is still guaranteed.

Officers such as Li Tong's recently appointed city supervisor, Feng Yansi, were also affected by the incident, and are now cooperating in the Dali Temple to track down stolen goods and investigate evil.Strictly speaking, the director's behavior was not peaceful, and the supervisor was also considered guilty, but it was mainly reflected in the evaluation and other aspects, and it was not up to the standard of criminal prosecution.

The reason why such a wide range of personnel and scope are affected is mainly because of the surge in financial-related matters, and the imperial court cannot coordinate the cooperation of personnel and processes for a while, so there have been a large number of mistakes and omissions and other dereliction of duty.

Of course, the phenomenon of corruption and breaking the law also exists.The amount of money involved in this inspection was hundreds of millions of dollars. After comparing it with the money put into the treasury, there was a gap between the accounts and the treasury, which was as high as tens of thousands of dollars.

Although there is a phenomenon that the money has not been put into the treasury, even if this part is excluded, there are still more than 500 million yuan of money that cannot be matched.There is no doubt that this part of the money was intercepted and corrupted during the administrative process of the various divisions.

Compared with the total amount of money of hundreds of millions of yuan, the deficit of 500 million yuan is indeed not a big ratio.

However, regardless of the total amount, no one can say that 500 million is a small sum.If the grain and silk were converted at the current price, this huge sum of money even far exceeded the total annual amount of Lumi of the officials in the interior and exterior!

The corruption of ink involved in this sum of money must be thoroughly investigated and will not be tolerated!

Although the fiscal revenue of the imperial court has increased sharply, if those corrupt officials are still allowed to hide in the official system, their thieves will be multiplied, and it is even very likely that they will expand from individual corruption to gang crimes. The money embezzled will also increase exponentially.

This year, the amount of corruption is only 500 million yuan, and next year it may be tens of millions!If we continue to let things go, it will take less than ten years for this World Expo to be held, and the calculation may still be a net loss!

Regarding the criminal judgment of related cases, the sage had discussed with the prime ministers for a long time yesterday, and drafted a joint law enforcement "Kaiyuan Five Years Pursuit of Stolen Items" by the Ministry of Punishment, Yushitai, and Dali Temple. In the next whole year, all the 500 million stolen money that disappeared out of thin air will be recovered, and those involved in the case will be punished!

As for the prosecution and punishment of those involved in the case, it still follows the standards stipulated in the "Tang Law Shuyi" such as the middle-ranking system, miscellaneous laws, and supervisors accepting money.

Originally, according to Li Tong's thinking, he felt that the regulations in "Tang Law Shuyi" were too strict. For example, in "Position System", fifteen bundles of silk bento were obtained by perverting the law.

"Tang Law Shuyi" is an old law in the Yonghui period. According to the current market price, a piece of silk is only between three and five hundred yuan.

Such punishment is undoubtedly extremely strict.Li Tong didn't think that the punishment of corrupt officials was too harsh, but that according to such strict standards, according to the development level of the commodity economy in Kaiyuan, the effect of implementing too strict laws might be greatly reduced.

The meaning of the law is not punishment, but deterrence.With such a low standard, it is actually very difficult to actually detect and prosecute. It is already a crime worthy of death in the law, but it happens frequently in real situations.

No matter how fair and strict the criminal department is, it is impossible to keep an eye on the small income in daily life of all officials.Being guilty but not punished, people's vigilance and self-defense will become more and more relaxed in the long run.

When it comes time to inspect and distribute the big stolen goods, the actual difference is not big, whether it is worth ten or a hundred coins.Although they are all dead, in the process of committing minor crimes, the law has lost the deterrent it should have.

Legislation needs to be strict, but enforcement needs to be cautious.If you want to ensure the deterrent nature of laws and regulations, you must do nothing wrong.

As a modern person, Li Tong thinks about this issue from the perspective of the implementation contradiction between legislation and law enforcement, and feels that law enforcement standards should meet the level of economic development.

If the punishment standard of the legislation is far lower than the actual economic value standard, the law will be in a state of being unable to implement for a long time, which will cause judicial inertia and cause the phenomenon of injustice, falsehood and omission.

However, when he raised such a question, Prime Minister Yao Yuanchong put forward another explanation based on the thinking of the ancients: "The predecessors made a law-making supervisor. , the punishment is not the amount of silk, but because of the unfair distribution! The crowned man is always raised by the state's salary. If food and clothing are not paid according to the law, how will the king's kindness show? The state is rewarded with Lumi, How can you sell goods and use them together with ordinary people!"

Yao Yuanchong's remarks can be regarded as revealing the essence of medieval legislation, that is, although the laws and regulations seem to be strict and the standards are fixed, the essence is still the rule of virtue.

The promulgation of the law does not stipulate the severity of your crimes, but whether you have committed any crimes!As long as you commit this crime, you can be denied based on this!

Hearing what Yao Yuanchong said, Li Tong finally understood what he thought was unreasonable in "Tang Law".

The laws of the Tang Dynasty were magnanimous in governing civil crimes. When the politics were clear, even the Dali Temple sentenced to death for civil crimes were very few in a year.

But in the crime of adjudicating officials, the laws of the Tang Dynasty are stricter, and there are some critical and extremely harsh regulations.Such two diametrically opposed attitudes hardly seem like a feudal law code.

"Tang Law" is still a feudal law code in essence, and its legislative purpose is still to govern the country by virtue, not by law.However, the progressive humanistic spirit embodied in the face of the differences of different groups cannot be denied.

After understanding these, and then looking at the differences in the regulations in "Tang Laws and Discussions", it is natural in my heart.The status and status of ordinary people and officials are not equal, so their moral requirements are naturally different.

Xiaomin's daily detention is only for his family and neighbors, and if he makes a mistake, the law does not take his life lightly, and gives him a chance to repent and make up for his mistakes.However, if an official has time for virtue and loses to the king at the top and the people at the bottom, he must be severely punished.

Therefore, the foundation of the establishment of laws and regulations is to first establish a moral concept of right and wrong, and then to implement them.

According to such a standard, the sage's proposal to relax sentencing seems to have improved the enforcement of laws and regulations, but in fact it has broken through the bottom line of social morality: laws and regulations are no longer the definition of right and wrong, but that although you are wrong, you still There is room for negotiation.It is not just a change in law enforcement standards, but also a retrogressive requirement for the morality of good and evil.

After listening to Yao Yuanchong's interpretation, Li Tong also realized that his thinking was wrong.At least in the current era, when a country makes legislation, it must first uphold moral persistence and define good and evil, right and wrong, rather than blindly pursuing a thorough legal system that must be enforced.

"Laws of the Tang Dynasty" is related to the bottom line of moral conduct. Although many regulations may not be enforced very strongly, in addition to laws and regulations, the imperial court also supplemented regulations with high timeliness and high enforcement such as styles and styles.

For example, the "Pursuit of Stealth" drawn up by Li Tong and the prime ministers was a regulation for this series of corruption cases that was specially issued in the fifth year of Kaiyuan.

There are six spoils in the "Tang Law", among which the crime is the highest and the final sentence is to pervert the law by taking money.As a rule, corruption of officials is not enough to be charged with such a crime, they are only imprisoned and entrusted with taking stolen goods.

These two crimes are considered light, and they are only punishable by imprisonment and exile. For example, taking stolen goods and committing crimes are only limited to three years of imprisonment. No matter how high the amount of embezzlement is, the sentence will not increase.

But Li Tong didn't intend to let this group of corrupt officials go so easily, so he drew up several criteria in the "Pursuit of Stolen Officials" to determine whether corrupt officials have harmed the country and imposed perverted punishments.Once convicted of committing a crime and perverting the law, fifteen horses will be strangled immediately.

Putting aside the problems exposed by the financial secretary during the inspection, the next court meeting reached the announcement of the year's bestowment share that the ministers were most looking forward to.

In the first half of this year, due to the sage's expedition to Qinghai, the treasury was almost emptied, and internal and external finances were stretched.But in the second half of the year, due to the trade blowout brought about by external expansion, the imperial court also received a lot of profits and the treasury was full.

If there are punishments, there must be rewards. The sages are planning to build a high-end living community in Gaien. Of course, the ministers who have done their best both internally and externally will be greatly rewarded, so this year's reward is also unprecedented. High enough to make all the ministers smile and live a comfortable and healthy life.

Chapter 0989 rebuilding the old way, towering Khan

As Prime Minister Wang Fangqing stepped out of the train, all the officials in the palace calmed down and raised their spirits.

The treatment of officials in the Tang Dynasty can be roughly divided into four categories: salary, salary, gifts, and clubs. Not only are there many types and methods, but the total amount of income is also quite considerable.

The relatively stable one among the four items of income is the salary. The salary is mainly divided into two parts: Lumi and Job Field. The fifty stones of the ninth grade.

Employment land is allocated according to the official rank, from [-] hectares for the first rank to [-] hectares and [-] mu for the ninth rank. Officials can send their families to farm by themselves, or rent out to tenant farmers for farming.

Compared with the previous generation, the salaries of officials in the Tang Dynasty are undoubtedly much more generous.The previous dynasties either gave Lu or Dai Lutian, but the Tang Dynasty had both.Especially the lutian given along with the job, whether it is rent or seed, the income is much richer than that of lumi.

It's just that after Kaiyuan, the official's job field was abolished.Since the period of the Xingtai Bafu, because most of the official land in the eastern capital was allocated in the pass, the Xingtai at that time was naturally unwilling to divide such an important land resource, so it was simply dismissed, and it was not restored until the Kaiyuan period.

Datang originally set up job fields because the treasury was exhausted in the early days of the founding of the country, and it was still unable to pay Lumi, and in order to drive local prominent families to settle in Beijing, so the land was used to replace Lumi.

The current situation in the court is different, especially in Guanzhong, where the average farmland has deteriorated and the fertility of the land has also declined seriously. It is no longer appropriate to grant land lightly.For the officials of the Beijing Division, at least more than 9000 hectares of fertile land are needed if the land is granted universally.

However, in the actual implementation process, the land parcels of the land are not small. If the land is granted universally, in fact, [-] to [-] hectares may not be able to be obtained.Moreover, officials only have land when they are in office, and they have a certain amount of power in their hands. It is inevitable that they will encroach on land that is easy to irrigate and cultivate, such as river valleys and hangdai.

Along with the occupational fields, there is also the feudal lands that are restricted.These two items alone have expanded Guanzhong by nearly [-] hectares of cultivated land.

Although the officials' job fields are gone, their shares are still retained.The Ministry of Household Affairs and Sinonong check and calculate the average yield per mu of the prefectures in the customs every year, and use this as a standard to provide an equal amount of grain and rice in the field every year.

Calculated based on the lower standard of two shi per mu, deducting the costs of grain seeds and labor, even if you are a ninth-rank official, you can still receive about [-] shi of Lumi a year.

However, Guanzhong is in a state of food shortage all year round, and it needs to be transferred from other prefectures, and a considerable part of Lumi needs to be distributed in cash.Lumi distribution is about one million shi every year, and the money is usually between three and 50 yuan. A ninth-rank official can earn between one hundred and one hundred yuan from Lumi alone, which is more than enough for a family.

Of course, Lumi's income also fluctuates. In addition to the income from the job field, which changes with the official position, how much Lumi you get throughout the year is also related to the exams.

Datang official examinations are divided into nine grades. If the examination rank is middle and middle, you can keep your salary and get the full amount of salary.If the test rank is raised by one level, it will be added to Lumi for one season, and it will be added for one year directly to the upper level.And if you pass the low-rank test, not only will you lose all your Lumi for a year, but you will also be impeached and demoted.

Lumi is related to the assessment, so the imperial court's rewards have not changed much in this regard, but are distributed according to the results of this year's rank examination.If some officials are willing to exchange Lumi for money, they will pay [-]% more than the market price, which will not only relieve the pressure on water transportation, but also give officials a certain amount of benefits.

The difference between salary and salary is not only in the time of issuance, but also in the content.Salary is issued quarterly, while salary is issued monthly.The content of the salary is also broader, which can be roughly divided into four categories: salary, materials, courses, and miscellaneous.

The salary is the salary, which is reduced from [-] yuan for the first rank to [-] yuan for the ninth rank, and is given every month.The materials are more complicated, including officials' food, wine materials, etc., and almost all the necessities of life are covered.

The class is for slaves, and above the fifth rank is given to marriage and account, until the eighth and ninth ranks are also given to officials and slaves for two or three use.The miscellaneous category is the life, death, marriage and other matters of officials, and even the parents and the birthday of the person will be sent to certain materials.

After Kaiyuan, there was a shortage of manpower in the various departments of the imperial court, so various miscellaneous benefits were reduced, and related benefits were also paid at a discount.As for this court meeting, three to six months' salary will be given to each according to the drama of the ministry.

At the same time, on the basis of the original slaves, two servants of the fifth rank and above are added, and one servant of the fifth rank is added.After all, too many captives were captured in the First World War in Qinghai, and these aboriginal people themselves lacked much skill. , and can be used for other purposes after serving.

Although the two items of salary have increased slightly due to customization, the overall increase is not large.At this court meeting, the most powerful reward is the gift meeting.

Among them, there are three grades and six kinds of Tonggui gifts, which are fifty strings of money, one hundred pieces of silk, fifty ends of miscellaneous colors, eight kinds of gold and silver wares, one imperial horse, and twenty buckets of miscellaneous envoy materials.Miscellaneous materials include spices, facial fat, mouth fat, dew bag, Liquan fine wine and so on.

From the fifth rank and below, it will be reduced step by step according to this standard, until the ninth rank, there are still five thousand coins, ten pieces of silk, and five ends of miscellaneous colors.

These gifts of silk and things are only rewards that officials themselves can receive.In addition to their own, wives of each family can still get a proportionate gift when they worship the queen.

Regarding this item, the imperial court has held a grand banquet for five days since the first day of the first month of the first lunar month. At the same time, each division gave money to the company and the office, and the banquet expenses for the officials of the branch office. ten strings.

In addition to the rewards and remuneration for officials, in the two capitals and the states of the world, all households who have paid their taxes are exempted from the household tax in the fifth year of Kaiyuan, and the government is not allowed to increase it.

All the officers and soldiers on the Jing border, those who were in the army, were comforted by the camps, and those who were honored and unarmed were dispatched from the prefectures and counties to ask questions, and gave them nine gifts for the festival.There are those who live eighty years in the household, and there are gifts and gifts according to this.Those who have seventy households will be given the first class of Minjue, and Hu Ding will be exempted from military service for one season.

The ministers had already been imagining how rich this year's gift would be, but the heroism of the court still exceeded their imagination.The accumulation of this series of rewards has almost doubled their original official income.

For ministers above Tonggui, although the direct rewards of money and silk are not too much.But other miscellaneous brocades, gold and silver wares, and miscellaneous materials are worth thousands of coins. As for the imperial horse, it is a priceless treasure, and no one would be so stupid as to sell it in the market.

Although the low-ranking officials don't have as generous gifts as the senior officials, but they have a large base, and with the increase in basic income such as salaries, the gains are also considerable, at least it is more than enough to live a good year.Not to mention that there are public money banquets distributed by the various departments and bureaus, which can not only have a good relationship with colleagues, but also save the family's own expenses.

It should be noted that the biggest expense of lower-level officials during the New Year is still the contacts of the world. Now there are banquets provided by various departments and bureaus.

Although Li Tong likes to make money and profit, he doesn't enjoy hoarding.The greatest significance of making money is to spend it and spend it happily.This year's big fiscal revenue, of course, is to have fun with the government and the people.

The many gifts and rewards announced by Wang Fangqing don't seem so amazing, but the sum of all the gifts and waivers has reached more than 1000 million coins!Basically, after a world expo is held, all the income from tax money will be given out in a big way today.

Even so, the imperial court's financial surplus is still extremely rich.Not only is the head of the folk household rich and straightforward, but the same is true for an emperor.

Seeing the officials dancing and thanking each other in the hall several times, although the scene of the demons dancing wildly was a bit funny, the cheerful atmosphere was extremely contagious.

Of course, such generous rewards cannot become a common practice. In addition to a good financial harvest this year, the victory in Qinghai also proved the fruitful achievements of the imperial court since the Kaiyuan period. reward!

After the reward was announced, the officials were very excited, and then the court made some year-end adjustments in personnel.

Speaking of the prosperous and orderly politics of Kaiyuan, the prime ministers in the court naturally contributed a lot.Therefore, since Yao Yuanchong, the Minister of Zhongshu, and since Kaiyuan, all the officials who have served as prime ministers, whether they are inside or outside, in the court or in the opposition, have been added to the rank of official. Even the late prime minister Lou Shide was posthumously given to Sikong.

In addition to the adjustment of scattered ranks, the actual official titles of the prime ministers have also been adjusted.Among them, Yao Yuanchong, who followed the sage to govern government affairs during the Zitai period, was granted the title of Liang Guogong and sealed [-] households. , supervise the history of the country as before.

Hearing about Yao Yuanchong's official position adjustment, all the ministers were also very surprised.Although there have long been rumors that there will be adjustments to the position of the Political Affairs Hall after the new year, they did not expect that Yao Yuanchong, the Prime Minister of the Political Affairs Hall, would be the first to be adjusted.

In fact, long before Kaiyuan, Yao Yuanchong was already one of the officials in charge of Xingtai. After Kaiyuan, he has been serving as the prime minister until now, and the courtiers have become accustomed to the existence of such a prime minister in the Zhengshitang.Now that he heard that Yao Yuanchong was about to be dismissed as prime minister, he felt somewhat at a loss as to what to do.

In fact, not only the courtiers were surprised by this, even Li Tong himself was quite uncomfortable with Yao Yuanchong's resignation.Originally, according to his idea, he hoped that Yao Yuanchong could continue to stay in the Zhengshitang for two to three years, so that the order of succession of high-end administrative talents could be justified.

Moreover, Yao Yuanchong has indeed shared a lot of pressure for him during these years in the Zhengshitang.Not to mention that Kaiyuan politics has improved so quickly. If Yao Yuanchong hadn't been in Gyeonggi, he wouldn't have dared to pat his ass in the first half of this year and would have asked for a personal conquest.

But since the middle of the year when he returned triumphantly, Yao Yuanchong frequently handed in his resignation.It's not that he's pretending to be arrogant, he's been in this position for a long time, and Yao Yuanchong really feels a bit overwhelmed by the heights.

His daily words and deeds have become the focus of attention of the officials, and even the experience of his son Shen Quan has been widely commented by Shi Liu.At the moment, it can generally be maintained, but if things go on like this, the future may not be overturned from a small place.

Seeing Yao Yuanchong's eagerness to resign, Li Tong reluctantly agreed.As for how to arrange it after he was dismissed, he also gave up a lot of thinking.

Today's imperial court did not follow the detours of Zhongzong and Ruizong. Although Yao Yuanchong has been prime minister for several years, he is only fifty now.For senior officials, this is the age of prime ministers, and there is still plenty of room for political career.

After the prime ministers of the Tang Dynasty left the Zhengshitang, if they were old, most of them would be transferred to the capital province or nine temples to serve as chiefs, and they would be supported by vanity. If they were still young and strong, they would leave Beijing to take charge of the government.

Yao Yuanchong is well versed in government affairs, and at the same time has a strong outlook on the overall situation and adaptability.If the current Qinghai issue has not been resolved, it would be a more appropriate position to serve as the governor of Liangzhou.But if it is placed in another place now, it will be a waste of talent.

So Li Tong simply kept it in the imperial court, and at the same time prepared to ask the staff, he brought along the Jiyingguan, a backup institution that would participate in the imperial edict, by the way.At the same time, Li Tong also plans to let Yao Yuanchong lead the revision of the new law next year.In the future, if there is an imbalance in the distribution of central personnel, Yao Yuanchong can also be restored as prime minister nearby.

Besides Yao Yuanchong, the adjustment of another prime minister was Liu Youqiu, who was not expected by the masses.After Liu Youqiu's resignation, he will serve as the governor of Guangzhou and lead the management of the five prefectures, coordinate and manage all matters in Lingnan Road, and at the same time supervise the already prosperous sea trade in Guangzhou.

Liu Youqiu, as a former member of the saint's residence, accompanied the saint's growth all the way, but because of this, his resume was quite lacking, and he had no experience in governing a party in the local area.Going to Guangzhou this time is not only to perfect the resume, but also to spread the latest adjustment of the imperial court to Lingnan.

In addition to these two dismissals, Wang Fangqing, Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, was promoted to the Minister of Zhongshu, succeeding Yao Yuanchong.As for the subsequent prime minister, it was not the official officials who were guessed by the officials because of the large-scale promotion of the state officials, but the supplementary officials from other divisions.

The reason why God's will is unpredictable is that they are different from each other.The courtiers thought that this year's large-scale increase in state officials, so the next year the imperial court may implement the reform of government orders to the local areas, but in fact there will be no major changes in the local areas in the coming year, but mainly on amending the laws.

As for the other chancellor who replaced him, it was also a great honor, but it was not Li Jingyi, who had fantasized about a three-prime minister, but Li Zhaode, who had been prime minister several times and had been dismissed several times.

Li Zhaode entered Shangshu Zuopushe and joined the third rank of Zhongshumen, and at the same time became the general manager of Qibei Road.In addition to the original authority of sitting in Shuofang, another new task was added, which was to recruit the Hu in the south of the desert and rebuild the Towering Khan Road connecting the north and the south of the desert.

The towering Khan Road is a road opened by the Huns in Mobei after Emperor Taizong destroyed Jieli Khan in the Eastern Turks in the old year of Zhenguan to pay homage to the saints of the Tang Dynasty. Go straight to the ancient road and go straight to Chang'an.
