11 appointment edicts were issued!
Yuan Situ, no, Grand Secretary Yuan, finally realized the seriousness of the problem.
If Xun Yu and Xun You weren't included, there wasn't a single person in the aristocratic families who had real power.
The position of chief assistant.
Lu Zhi because of the millions of Yellow Turban military credit, credit spread all over the government and the people, can not be questioned at all.
The position of the second assistant.
Huangfu Song was in charge of 400,000 troops and was about to go to the northern border, so he was worthy of the second assistant position.
A thousand gold for a horse's bone.
This was the reason.
Below the second assistant, there were three group assistants. He, Yuan Kui, Yang Biao, and Chen Qun, who had ascended to the heavens with a single step.
Just from this alone, the emperor's favor was deep.
The problem was…
Group assistants don't have real power.
They only had the right to participate in politics and vote.
Regarding national policies, government affairs, and yamen matters, if you have different opinions, you can vote for it.
At the end of the day, he was doing the work of assisting the first assistant, the second assistant, and correcting mistakes.
Six Ministers.
The Minister of Official Personnel Affairs, the person in charge of the promotion and dismissal of officials, was actually a talent who had never been heard of.
Grand Secretary Yuan instinctively wanted to question him.
However, on second thought, Chen Qun had also entered the cabinet for nothing. In name, he was one rank higher than Xi Zhicai.
If he voiced his doubts, the Emperor would be furious and would punish Chen Qun and the opera artist. Wouldn't that offend Chen Qun and the Chen family?
The ministers of the Ministry of Revenue, the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Justice, and the Ministry of Works were all old acquaintances. They were the new nobles of the court handpicked by the Emperor.
After several months of verification, they were all people with outstanding abilities.
Now.
After His Majesty had summarized the functions of the world, the power of these five people had increased a little, but their status would still not be shaken.
Good heavens.
The aristocratic families could not be completely excluded from the power center of the country, but their actual power was greatly reduced.
If these new nobles of the imperial court joined forces, the aristocratic families could even command a single soldier.
The three ministers compared the six ministers.
Grand Secretary Yuan couldn't figure out who was better, but he felt that he couldn't lose his real power.
But the edict has been issued.
He couldn't find any loopholes in the new national policy.
Grand Secretary Yuan wanted to open his mouth, but he couldn't say anything. That uncomfortable feeling was stuck in his heart.
"Something's not right!"
Yang Biao and Elder Yang Ge felt that something was wrong.
Group assistant position.
Being the center of power in the country and being able to participate in politics, wasn't this what the three dukes had done in the past?
They only had status and no real power.
But in the past, the three dukes were only below the emperor in name.
Now.
There were still the second assistant and the first assistant above the group of assistants. There were two more people. It was a little disadvantageous.
"What should we do?"
Grand Secretary Yang looked at Grand Secretary Yuan, and Grand Secretary Yuan looked at Grand Secretary Yang with questioning eyes.
After hesitating for a while, he finally sighed.
It seemed that he had suffered a loss due to his lack of culture?
Who would believe this? One was from a top-tier aristocratic family, and the other was from a second-tier aristocratic family. This was the first time they felt that their knowledge reserves were not enough.
"Grand Elder Yuan, Grand Elder Yang, why aren't you receiving the decree to thank me?”
The eunuch Han Yan frowned and reminded him.
All those in the court, including Huangfu Song, Xun Yu, Cheng Yu, Huang Zhong, Zhong Yao and Xun You, have received the edict to thank the emperor.
Even the newly appointed Grand Secretary Chen Qun and Minister Xi Zhicai were outside the Meridian Gate and had already sent people to invite them.
The two elders didn't move. What were they thinking?
Fighting for the position of chief assistant, wasn't he afraid of being scolded to death by Lu Zhi's fans!
Wen, he was a great scholar, Wu, he was a veteran general of the military.
To fight for the second assistant, he had to defeat Huangfu Song.
Do you believe that those boorish men from the military would dare to block the Yuan and Yang families?
The officials from the aristocratic families craned their necks to look at the two big shots. Hurry up and answer it. If you don't want to answer it, give it to me.
"I, Yuan Kui, thank you for your kindness!"
"Your subject, Yang Biao, thanks for the decree!"
Grand Elder Yuan and Grand Elder Yang were helpless.
Kneeling on the ground, he received the imperial edict in fear and trepidation, completely losing the chance to go back on his word.
“duang！”
Chen Qun and Grand Secretary Chen had just entered the hall, and upon seeing this, they tripped over the threshold, their eyes filled with despair.
The system had always been the same.
He was able to create the nine-grade system, and his understanding of the cabinet system, the six-department system, the governor system, and the imperial examination system was naturally faster than the average person.
In the nine-rank system, the aristocratic families had the right to benefit.
In the new national policy, the emperor was the one who had the most benefits.
The imperial examination was to select talents, and the court examination was the last. The emperor would personally set the questions and review the papers. This meant that the examinees participating in the court examination were, in a sense, the emperor's students.
In reading, the most important thing is to learn from the teacher.
In ten, twenty, thirty years, the entire court would be the Son of Heaven's disciples. Would the aristocratic families be afraid?
While walking from the Meridian Gate to the Deyang Hall, he quickly sorted out everything that had happened in the court by asking the eunuch who led the way.
He quickened his pace because he wanted to arrive before Pavilion Elder Yuan Kui and Pavilion Elder Yang Biao received the imperial edict and think of a way to stop them.
Hurry up!
It was still too late!
The imperial edict was received!
He had jumped into the trap of the national policy maker. The position of group assistant was the bait!
"Changwen, are you alright?"
Beside Chen Qun, a hand reached out and pulled Chen Qun back from his fall.
That person was very handsome. If it wasn't for the sickly paleness on his face and the tiredness in his eyes, anyone who looked at him would have called him a good young master.
"Zhicai, I'm fine!"
Chen Qun steadied his body and forced a smile back, his heart bitter to the extreme.
Regarding this newly appointed Minister of Personnel, Pavilion Elder Yuan Kui and Pavilion Elder Yang Biao did not know him, but Chen Qun was extremely familiar with him. Xun Yu's good friend could be considered his good friend.
He was full of tricks and was the top wise man of the Humble Class in the country.
Letting Xi Zhicai become the Minister of Personnel would undoubtedly be a huge disaster for the entire aristocratic family.
Fortunately.
Xi Zhicai was not in good health.
He could probably only hope that his good friend would die early.
"Chen Qun accepts the decree to thank you!"
"I, Xi Zhicai, receive the imperial edict to thank you!"
The imperial edict was held above his head.
No one objected to the four national policies, and they were officially implemented throughout the country.
At this moment.
At the foot of the steps.
The eunuch took the letter and opened it. His heart almost stopped beating.
"Your…Your Majesty, the Xiongnu envoy has arrived!”
The eunuch's voice trembled as he reported,""The Xiongnu emissary requested that the Emperor of the Han Dynasty, Your Majesty, personally welcome him…"
