In the middle of the month, Xiao Yu and Chen Shuda returned to Xiangyang.
After more than a year of exile, the two prime ministers returned to the DPRK and China, served as Xuanfu envoys abroad, and sat in Henan and Hebei.
Before the two were released, they were left and right, and they were the prime minister.
After coming back, he still shot left and right, and he was still the prime minister, but it was different.
At the beginning, they were released because of natural disasters, and the disaster was too great, and the two prime ministers were blamed and dismissed.
Now that the disaster is over, we will return to the DPRK, but the pattern of the DPRK and China is different.
After being vacant for a period of time, the left and right servants are no longer the head of the hundred officials, and the status of Shangshu Province is not as good as before. was the head of the hundred officials at the beginning, but now the left and right servants are only equal to the status of Zhongshu and the servants under the door, and even rank behind them.
Now the prime minister of the imperial court must add the title of Pingzhang under the same Zhongshu Door as the real prime minister.
The ranking of the prime ministers of the DPRK and China, the first is Zhongshu Ling, the second is Shizhong, the third is Shangshu Ling, then Zhongshu Shilang, the door Shilang, and then the left and right servants.
At present, only the governors of the three provinces, Zhongshu Ling, Shizhong, and Shangshu Ling, are natural prime ministers, and the rest must be added to the title of Pingzhang under the Zhongshu Sect to participate in politics under the Zhongshu Sect.
The deputy governors of the three provinces or the six Shangshu and Shilang, etc., all officials above the fifth rank in the DPRK and the central government, as long as they add the title of Pingzhang under the Zhongshu Sect, can enter the Zhongshu Sect to participate in politics and become one of the prime ministers.
This new system broke the previous restriction that only the governors of the three provinces were prime ministers, and the emperor could also more conveniently select cronies from among the middle-level officials to share the power of the prime minister, and there was no need to be limited by seniority.
The Zhengdan Dynasty in the second year of Zhenguan is about to begin, and the imperial court is also brewing a new round of personnel adjustments.
The biggest adjustment is still the core center under the door of Zhongshu.
Yuliang Island, the palace outline.
Xiao Yu and Chen Shuda just came out and walked under the porch together.
"Your Majesty really trusts Li Wenyuan."
"Well, once a son of heaven and a courtier, Li Chao has finally become the governor of the three provinces."
Both of them are a little emotional, they are the prime ministers of the Wude Dynasty, because they supported King Qin at the beginning, so after the new emperor ascended the throne, they were able to become the left and right servants of the new dynasty, but after all, they are not as good as Fang Du and Li Chaochangsun Wuji's henchmen.
In fact, the two of them were the prime ministers of the new dynasty for half a year, and then they carried the pot of natural disasters and police, and let them out.
They were not so much relieved of their posts as a warning of natural disasters, but rather to make way for Fang Du and the two.
As soon as they left, Fang Du and the others took over as the left and right servants.
Later, the imperial court reformed the center, replacing Shangshu Province with Zhongshu Men, Fang Xuanling was reappointed as Zhongshu Ling, Du Ruhui was reappointed as a servant, and the positions of the two servants were vacant.
"Wen Yuan doesn't want to be Shang Shuling, what do you think about this matter?"
Just now in the hall, the emperor talked to them for a long time, mainly because of this central personnel adjustment.
Under the door of the Chinese book, there will be eleven prime ministers.
Zhongshu Ling Fang Xuanling, Shizhong Du Ruhui, Shangshu Ling Li Chao.
There are also Zhongshu Lang Yu Wenshi and, the door servant Gao Shilian, the left servant Xiao Yu, the right servant Chen Shuda, the secretary Sun Wuji, the military secretary Yang Gongren, the household secretary Ma Zhou, and the imperial historian Wei Zheng.
This list has been confirmed, and the Zhengdan Dynasty will be announced.
It can be seen that there are still a few old ministers of the Wude Dynasty, but in addition to the two of them, the other Yuwen Shi and Yang Gongren are the old men of Tiance Mansion.
As for Fang Du and Li Chao's eldest grandson, they were the emperor's henchmen Yuan Zuo.
This personnel adjustment of the center is basically the core of the center of the Zhenguan Dynasty.
Li Chao became Shang Shuling, ranking third, which is not unusual.
What is strange is that Li Chao's former bookkeeper Mr.
Ma Zhou has become the prime minister this time, and he has entered the list of prime ministers with the household department Shangshu and the same Zhongshu Menxia Pingzhangshi.
Ma Zhou used to be just the bookkeeper of Li Chao's family, and he rose faster than Li Chao.
Li Chao still has so many real skills from the dragon to save the guard, but Ma Zhou is following behind Li Chao.
Li Chao is in the East Palace, Ma Zhou is also in the East Palace, Li Chao goes to Longyou, he also goes to Longyou, Li Chao goes to Shuofang, he also goes to Shuofang, and then now, he is transferred from Zhongshu Sheren Zhongshu Shilang to Hubu Shangshu and Pingzhangshi.
Ma Zhouke is just from a humble background.
The two laughed.
Ma Zhou is a good person, and he met a nobleman.
The account office of the prime minister's family has also become the prime minister, and it is really amazing that this thing has been spread.
Cui Gan, the former servant of the door, was transferred to the Ministry of Rites this time.
The former squire of the Ministry of Works, the warrior Tong, was promoted to the secretary of the Ministry of Works, and the former imperial history of the Emperor Sun Fujia served as the secretary of the Criminal Department.
If you add Dali Qing Zheng Shanguo, Taichang Qing Zheng Yuanxuan.

Now in the court, the Li family's in-laws are all over the place.
Xiao Yu and Chen Shuda are from the Western Liang royal family, and the other is from the Southern Chen royal family, and their origins are extremely noble, even if Liang Chen died early, but the two major families of Xiao Chen are still very large.
But compared with Li Chao, the two of them were very emotional.
Li Chao has achieved a position that none of them can do in a short period of time.
After all, they are not the emperor's hidden residence.
"What will happen if Li Chao still insists on not obeying Shangshu's order tomorrow?"
Chen Shuda shook his head, "Your Majesty won't allow it." ” "It seems that we have to go to Li's house today."
Xiao Yu sighed, today is Chinese New Year's Eve, but they can't stay at home and have a good rest.
For such a matter, the emperor first summoned them to the palace to talk for a long time, and now they have to go to Li's house again.
"I don't know why Li Chao keeps refusing, what is there to refuse about this matter?"
The two prime ministers went out of the palace gate and went to Li's house.
In the city of Xiangyang, Li Mansion.
Today is Chinese New Year's Eve, and the old case in the house is very lively.
Li Mansion put up lanterns and pasted Spring Festival couplets to invite the door gods, and Li Chao personally wrote some blessing words as usual.
Since the morning, people have been coming to visit.
However, unless it is a good friend of the world, Li Chao does not come forward to receive it in person, there are too many people to visit, and if you really want to see them one by one, you can't see them at all.
Eating hot pot with Wei Zheng, after a while, Ma Zhou came.
During the period of being a scholar and a waiter, Ma Zhou's ability was deeply appreciated by Li Shimin, and this adjustment made him a household secretary and worshiped the prime minister.
Although Ma Zhou is now also the prime minister, his body has always been deeply branded by the Li family, and it is impossible to change at all.
When Li Chao came back, of course he had to come to visit.
For Ma Zhou, Li Chao is not polite, the two are also teachers and friends, and the relationship is very deep, so deep that they don't avoid suspicion.
Wei Zheng didn't shy away from it, he used to be a neighbor, but now he is a relative.
"Add another pair of chopsticks, take a cup, and drink together."
So, on the kang, the three prime ministers sat and ate hot pot.
After a few glasses of wine, I couldn't help but talk about political affairs.
Ma Zhou used to be a Chinese scholar, but now he has been reappointed as the head of the household department, and his responsibilities are very different.
One is to write an edict to the emperor, and the other is to manage money for the court.
"With Saburo's predecessor Zhuyu in front, it's difficult for me to be a household secretary."
Wei Zheng didn't care.
"I'll send my brother a word, it's not difficult to keep you this book, just follow Xiao Guicao.
Wenyuan presided over the household department, open source and reduce expenditure, especially open source, financial resources are extensive, this new household tax and land tax, plus commercial tax tariffs, as well as salt tax, mining tax and tea tax, etc., the new revenue in a year is quite amazing.
What's more, Wenyuan has also opened up several trade routes, formed several business groups, and exchanged with the border city of Fanbang, so there is a lot of income inside and out. ” Ma Zhou smiled, "That's true, but now the imperial court expenses are also large, Hanjing is still under construction, the defense line of the nine borders in the north needs to be strengthened, and the immigrants from all over the country are on the border, which is also a large expense."
In addition, next year's military budget will increase again, and the increase is not a small number, to be honest, I have not yet taken office, but I am already a little anxious, thinking about the huge deficit of the imperial court has not been paid off, and it will increase here, I have a big head. ” "You have to discuss this with Wen Yuan, he is an expert in this regard.
Besides, you are the head of the household, he is the secretary of the book, and your book is his subordinate, so it's right to look for him. ” The six departments are indeed directly under the province of Shangshu, but now the authority of the scholars has increased, especially the three departments of the officials and soldiers, and the three books have all entered the Zhongshu Gate and become the prime minister with the title of Pingzhang.
"Step by step, there is a fiscal deficit, but it's not all bad, so don't worry too much."
Li Chao is a little heartless.
We're chatting here.
After a while, several more relatives came.
The Ministry of Works, the Ministry of Justice, Sun Fujia, and the Ministry of Rites, Cui Gan, are all Li Chao's in-laws and sons-in-law.
Welcome people in and eat hot pot together, anyway, the kang is big enough, it's just a matter of adding a few pairs of dishes and chopsticks.
Although these three did not worship the prime minister, they were also one of the six Shangshu, and in the court, they were also the actual ministers below the prime minister.
However, the more people there are, the more inconvenient it is to talk about court affairs, so everyone tacitly agrees not to talk about political affairs, but just chatting about family affairs.
As a result, more and more people came.
Dali Qing Zheng Shanguo and Taichangqing Zheng Yuanxuan came together, and just as they came in and sat down, Xiao Yu and Chen Shuda, the two prime ministers, came again.
As soon as the two of them came in, they found good guys.

On this big kang in Li Chao's living room, there are already three prime ministers, Wei Zheng, Ma Zhou and Li Chao, and among the six Shangshu in the court, there are also four Shangshu of household labor and criminal rites.
If you add the two prime ministers of them, there are five prime ministers, four Shangshu, and two Jiuqing on this kang.
But that's not all.
As soon as Zhang Luo sat down here, the two prime ministers, Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui, also came together.
Now it's okay, there are eleven prime ministers in the court, and seven of them sit directly in this room.
No matter how big the kang is, I can't sit down, so I have to let people put a few seats in the living room again, serve snacks and tea, and chat under the kang.
"Xiangye, the Duke of Qi, the Duke of Hu, the Duke of Tan, the Duke of Wei and other princes are here."
Qin Qiongcheng bit the gold and they came, and a large number of generals were all old relations of the Li family.
This kung fu came together, and there were eight princes, and these eight were all generals.
After Qin Qiong and the others came in, they looked at the prime minister Shang Shujiuqing in the hall, and they were also a little stunned.
Li Chao could only smile bitterly, this made the hall full of ministers, and he didn't know what he would think after it reached the emperor's ears.
Eight generals, seven prime ministers, four Shangshu, and two Jiuqing, the scene is a bit out of control It's like gathering a crowd to rebel. t1706231537:
