Look, the Minister of Household Affairs has donated his salary.

So, what qualifications do you officials in Northern Xinjiang have to feel wronged?

This is the ultimate weapon.

One move left Zhang Huan speechless.

The father-in-law is not old yet.

Then the discussion continued.

Zhu Wei, the Minister of Rites, stood up and reported, "Your Majesty, the list of ministers who should be rewarded this year has been prepared."

The emperor said calmly: "I will review it later."

"yes."

The emperor would reward dignitaries, important ministers, and members of the clan during every year and festival.

And it's very generous.

What kind of money and food in Northern Xinjiang, if those rewards can be saved...

Zhang Huan was able to receive these rewards every year. He used to be a little happy, but now he was dull.

If you don't reach the height of a temple, you won't be able to comprehensively examine the world.

Your layout and vision will be limited.

The key point is that the emperor not only rewards people during festivals and festivals, but also spends a lot of money on weekdays.

Let's just say that the two sisters of the imperial concubine became top dignitaries in Chang'an by virtue of the emperor's reward.

Among them, the eldest sister Liang Yue is even more extravagant. She often competes with others for wealth and spends huge sums of money without any emotion.

The matter came to an end, and just when everyone thought that today's discussion was over, Zheng Qi stood up.

"Your Majesty, there is a vacancy in the staff department for a minister."

Luo Cai frowned slightly.

The Ministry of Civil Affairs has a vacancy for a minister, and the matter is under discussion.

Moreover, this matter has nothing to do with the Ministry of Justice, why did Zheng Qi suddenly speak?

"Oh!" The emperor seemed not to know about this, "The civil service department is an important place and should not be ignored. Do you have any candidates?"

The emperor's attitude was very high.

But Luo Cai tensed his nerves.

In such matters, the emperor would either directly propose his own candidates, or else he would remain silent and wait for the ministers to finish speaking before he would make a summary.

Who do you want to recommend to take over the position of Minister of Civil Affairs?

The power of the official department controls the official title of the officials in the world. One comment can benefit others, and one comment can destroy others.

Luo Cai thought carefully and calculated several possible candidates for the emperor, and felt that he could still control the situation.

So, he smiled.

Zheng Qi glanced at him and said, "Your Majesty, Yang Xuan, the governor of Chenzhou, has made great achievements in the Southern Expedition. He is young and promising and behaves calmly. Your Majesty once said that it is a pity that this son has too little qualifications, otherwise he should be reused.

In this way, I think that he should be allowed to serve in various positions to enrich his resume. I recommend that Yang Xuanlai should take over as Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs."

Zhang Huan was stunned.

Luo Cai suddenly stood up and said, "That's wrong!"

"Oh!" Zheng Qi smiled, "Does Shangshu Luo think Yang Xuan is not qualified?"

"No!" Luo Cai said: "Regardless of whether Yang Xuan is qualified or not, Northern Xinjiang faces Northern Liao directly, Chenzhou directly faces the three major ministries, and Tanzhou is behind.

Chenzhou has been stable over the years, and it relies on the ability of its chief officials. The predecessor Liu Qing was stable, so he was able to maintain success.

After Yang Xuan went to Chenzhou, he became more enterprising, so he destroyed Waxie and was able to suppress the three major tribes. This man is versatile in both civil and military affairs..."

Zheng Qi interjected, "Since he is versatile in both civil and military affairs, he should go into six departments to gain experience. Once he has a full resume, he can be put to great use."

Luo Cai said: "This is wrong."

"Oh! Why is it wrong?"

"A person's talent depends not only on what he is good at, but also on the current situation. The so-called knowing people and making good use of them means using them according to their talents and adapting to local conditions!"

Luo Cai's eyes were bright, and if Yang Xuan were here, he would definitely exclaim "expert".

"The current danger of the Tang Dynasty lies in the Northern Liao Dynasty. Before that, everything should be retreated."

No one can refute this.

But Luo Cai seemed a little disappointed. Yang Songcheng knew what he was thinking.

The biggest problem of Datang was not its foreign enemies, but itself.

The powerful are endlessly exploiting, greedy, and annexing land crazily.

The emperor did not care about government affairs and relied on checks and balances to maintain his authority.

If domestic problems can be solved, will Beiliao be a problem?

Yang Songcheng raised the corners of his mouth slightly, thinking that Luo Cai was famous for being outspoken, but he still did not dare to offend the emperor on this issue.

To blame domestic problems is to accuse the emperor of being stupid!

Luo Cai didn’t dare to say this!

Luo Cai took a deep breath and said, "Yang Xuan has been in Northern Xinjiang for many years and has managed the place effectively. As for Taiping County, it was originally a place of exile and dilapidated. But after he took over the post of county magistrate, Taiping changed. Now,

It is also known as Little Jiangnan beyond the Great Wall.

After arriving in Chenzhou, I have seen the changes in Chenzhou in the past two years, does Zheng Shangshu know?"

Zheng Qi really didn't know and shook his head slightly.

Luo Cai said: "Glorious!"

The situation in Chenzhou under Yang Xuan is gratifying!

"I see such a capable person and feel happy in my heart."

Zhou Zun smiled slightly, thinking that his son-in-law could make the demanding Luo Cai full of praise, which shows his outstanding ability.

Zheng Qi said: "Since he is a capable person, he should be reused."

"I have said that the great enemy of the Tang Dynasty is the Northern Liao Dynasty. Where should the capable personnel be used? Naturally, they should be used where they are most urgent.

In Northern Xinjiang, Yang Xuan has good governance internally and can resist powerful enemies externally. Such a capable person in Northern Xinjiang is like an iron gate and a tiger."

"What about putting it in Chang'an?" someone asked.

"A dog."

puff!

The emperor who was drinking tea couldn't help but spray tea all over the floor.

As soon as Luo Cai said these words, he regretted a little, "The so-called work of dogs and horses is what a minister should do."

Okay, the loophole has been fixed.

It's just that the ministers looked a little strange.

Dog!

Luo Cai described himself and us as dogs.

Luo Cai said: "I think that the most suitable place for Yang Xuan is Northern Xinjiang. I would like to say again, Chang'an is not short of a minister, but Northern Xinjiang is indispensable for that iron gate!"

He sat down with his back straight.

Zheng Qi smiled and said, "I quite agree with what Luo Shangshu said, but it is a bit biased."

Luo Cai raised his eyebrows, "Oh! What is Zheng Shangshu's advice? I am all ears."

He is an old official, and Emperor Wu praised him endlessly. You, Zheng Qi, are a lackey of the father of the country, and you are qualified to talk about official affairs with me?

Zheng Qi said: "Luo Shangshu said that Yang Xuan is a capable man and should be placed in northern Xinjiang. But I am thinking, how many such capable men do we have in the Tang Dynasty?"

He looked at everyone and said, "My emperor is wise, the Tang Dynasty is prosperous, and talents naturally emerge in large numbers."

Who has any doubts.

Even Yang Xuan's father-in-law Zhou Zun was speechless on this issue.

The key is that Zhou Zun saw it.

What Zheng Qi said today was to get his son-in-law out of Northern Xinjiang.

And the purpose is not simple, it is aimed directly at Huang Chunhui, the governor of Northern Xinjiang.

Huang Chunhui was embarrassed by the emperor. The emperor wanted to deal with him, but he was afraid of Bei Liao's presence and did not dare to make any big moves.

If you can't make big moves, then do it bit by bit.
