Chapter 207 First Day

Facing the first ray of sunshine on the horizon, the first morning after Lu Qiang's return began in a three-year-old.

Today's officials' standing is obviously much more standardized than yesterday. Looking around, they are all familiar faces. The integration of the six departments has just begun, and there are many original officials of Jiankang behind them.

Everything is a new beginning. There is not so much red tape. Officials from various ministries are prelude on how to implement yesterday's decree.

Although Lu Qiang is sitting in the Golden Hall for the first time, he has been dealing with various government affairs in Jingzhou in the past two years and has accumulated rich experience, so he quickly entered the role.

What Lu Qiang didn't expect was that Jiankang officials listed more than 20 crimes of Liu Yu, led by Wang Mi, Hu Xiaofu and others.

For Wang Mi and others, Lu Qiang must be killed, but yesterday's evidence was not enough, and there were not many people involved.

After reading the memorial of Ruan Qingzhi's imperial history, Lu Qiang immediately asked Luo Song to investigate and verify it. Once it was verified, it would never be tolerated.

Lu Qiang has a principle in dealing with anything, that is, he will never listen to biasedness. Even if he is against himself, he should also be reasonable and well-founded.

The first day of the court meeting was also long, involving people's livelihood, government affairs, military and other intentions. After discussion, it was sent out in the hall.

In order to keep a place in the court and have a good impression in front of the emperor, Jiankang officials are even happier than Jingzhou officials.

Lu Qiang wants such a situation. Only a dynamic court can maximize its effectiveness.

The court will disperse until noon. Before the dispersing of the dynasty, Lu Qiang made two more orders, one for Yang Sheng of Qiu Chi, ordered him to go to Beijing to report, and the other to Xu Daofu, and the title of Xu Daofu as the commander-general of the Royal Navy, and also went to Beijing to report his duties.

Xu Daofu's son Xu Wei is now a powerful personal defender around Lu Qiang, so Lu Qiang believes that Xu Daofu will come back.

It's hard to say. This guy seems to be obedient to the court, but he has been playing the trick of supporting troops and self-reliance. Now Jiangnan has been unified. Except for Xuzhou, which is specially left for Liu Yu and Liu Yi to fight, there can no longer be no separation.

Zhu Chaoshi turned out to be the governor of Yangzhou. This time, he was also left in the capital by Lu Qiang and directly gave him a hereditary title, which was highly praised. The position of the governor of Yangzhou was handed over to others.

The morning meeting did not affect Lu Qiang's energy, but deliberately felt unfinished, but when I went back to rested, I thought of my beloved wives far away in Jiangling.

I remember that the previous life book said that women are the most** and need people to accompany them the most when they are pregnant. I don't know if they will be sad if they are not by their side?

Looking at Lu Qiang's meal, Zhao Yong, who stood beside him, quickly said carefully, "Your Majesty, think the food is not delicious?"

Huh? Oh! No, no, by the way, you pick a group of maids of honor with sharp hands and feet and send them to Jiangling. The queen is pregnant and needs someone to serve them. The imperial doctor will also send a few to pay attention to their physical condition at any time.

Only then did Zhao Yong understand that the emperor missed the queen. He quickly agreed and went down to arrange.

Lu Qiang didn't eat a few bites of rice. The bodyguard came to report, and Tao Yuanming, the new minister of the Ministry of Ceremonies, asked for a meeting.

Lu Qiang can guess what Tao Yuanming came to do for him, but he had to return to Jiangling at any time. He planned to go back to Jiangling to do the etiquette he advocated. However, he couldn't see him, so he ordered someone to invite Tao Yuanming in

"Hehe! Lord Tao, you are close enough. You haven't eaten yet, have you? Come on, add a pair of bowls and chopsticks to Lord Tao"

Tao Yuanming really didn't eat, but Lu Qiang's identity is different now. How can he be the most polite person to eat with the emperor?

Shake his head quickly and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, I have eaten. I have something to ask Your Majesty for an order."

The morning meeting was held. As soon as he came back, it was impossible for Tao Yuanming to eat. He couldn't help but order someone to move a few cases, put them in front of him, and served him part of the dishes at his table.

"Although your identities are different now, I hope you are still like in Jingzhou. Don't always be so restrained. Sit down and eat. Let's eat and say as we eat."

Tao Yuanming was moved, so he did not refuse. After a deep salute, he sat down.

After urging Tao Yuanming to eat a few mouthfuls of food, Lu Qiang took the lead and said, "Lord Tao is not an outsider. You should know that I'm going to abandon Jiankang's idea. So about reopening the college and recruiting excellent children from all over the world to Beijing, will it start when you arrive in Jiangling?"

Tao Yuanming does know Lu Qiang's idea. He came to Lu Qiang today not only to reopen the college, but also how to get rid of the vulgarity of the nine-pin middle school.

put down the chopsticks in his hand and said, "Your Majesty, I actually want to talk about the nine-grade neutral system. I know that your majesty also hates it, but this bad habit has been practiced for hundreds of years. I'm afraid it can't be changed by your majesty's will, and even if it is now deterred by your majesty's power, secretly I'm afraid there will also be small actions, that is, it is bound to affect the stability of your majesty's country, so although this is imperative, you can't be carelessly cautious"

It turned out that he would be wrong. Lu Qiang couldn't help laughing and said, "What Lord Tao said is very true, so I plan to take an exam in Jiangling, mainly to assess those students who have been graded. At the same time, the children of poor families can also participate. What do you think?"

"Exam?"

Tao Yuanming was stunned at first, and then woke up. There are no cold men in the top grade and no scholars in the lower grade. In fact, how many of the so-called top grade have real talent and practical knowledge? The emperor recruited high-quality children and poor families from all over the world to take the exam. Naturally, there was nothing to say if he did well in the exam. If he did not do well in the exam, he gave the emperor an excuse to re-select talents.

St up, respectfully and deeply salute, and said happily, "Your Majesty, I know what to do"

"Hehe! What is holy or not? Why did you guys get farther and farther away from me when you get to Jiankang? This won't work. I don't want to be alone."

Lu Qiang's words can be said to be completely from the bottom of his heart. Who said that the emperor must be superior and not even have a confidant? But looking at the current trend, the subordinates in Jingzhou who used to talk to talk to him are getting farther and farther away from him. Although respect comes from the heart, this feeling is really uncomfortable.

Tao Yuanming said, "Your Majesty is ordered by heaven, and I am close to your majesty in my heart, but this kind of closeness can only be kept in my heart, otherwise who will be unscrupulous in front of your majesty and talk about the country of etiquette?"

Lu Qiang knew that Tao Yuanming was right, but he couldn't get along with this rack. He sighed helplessly and urged Tao Yuanming to continue to finish the meal.

The two gentlemen and ministers talked while eating. After noon, Lu Qiang let Tao Yuanming leave.

At the beginning of the new dynasty, Lu Qiang had too many things to change, but he knew that he could not be in a hurry, because no matter what he wanted to change, it was something that had been passed down for hundreds of years. These bad habits have penetrated into the bone marrow of people in this era and must be done little by little.

He was ordered to find Han Yanzhi. After Lu Qiang returned to Jiangling, Jiankang handed it over to Han Yanzhi, a typical handsome talent.

The official position of Shangshu of the Ministry of War is not small, but according to Lu Qiang's new official system, the Ministry of War has no right to mobilize the army, so it also needs a general to cooperate with Han Yanzhi. The candidate for this general has also been selected, that is, Tan Daoji.

There is no doubt that the two are loyal to Lu Qiang, but Lu Qiang is also afraid that Han Yanzhi has ideas. After all, a military minister can't be transferred, and it is inevitable that he will feel a little uncomfortable, so Lu Qiang intends to let him hold another official position.

These Shangshu should be the busiest people now, but because the army has always been under the control of Lu Qiang, Han Yanzhi is the most leisurely person now.

I heard that Lu Qiang saw it, and he rushed over in no time.

Lu Qiang is a person who can't be idle. The fact is that he can't be idle at all. There are countless official documents that need his approval every day. He just had dinner with Tao Yuanming, even if he is idle.

Seeing Han Yanzhi coming in, he put down the memorial in his hand and smiled, "Han Shangshu came so fast. How is the army reorganized? Ha ha! Isn't it that you are lazy?"

Han Yanzhi knew that Lu Qiang was joking with him and bowed down and said, "I dare not. The army has traveled all the way from Guangyang and adapted all the way. Now it's almost done."

The army is Lu Qiang's most concerned place. Of course, he knows what has changed the most. He nodded and said, "Look at this" and handed the written edict to Han Yanzhi.

Han Yanzhi opened it and saw that the words "Han Yanzhi, secretary of the Ministry of War, also serving as governor Xu and Yang, stationed in Jiankang" had just been written and had not been printed yet.

The official position of Governor Xu and Yang was invented by Lu Qiang himself, that is, to hand over Xuzhou and Yangzhou to Han Yanzhi's jurisdiction and a special official position.

Han Yanzhi was stunned first, and then understood that the emperor was preparing to return to Jiangling. Although he was surprised, he was also sincerely happy. Governor Xu and Yang were more powerful than this military minister.

Falling down and salute: "Thank you, Your Majesty, I will never humiliate your holy life"

Lu Qiang said earnestly, "The court has been newly established, and everything is still being explored. When the functions of the governor' office and the military headquarters of the five armies are fully exercised in the future, you will not be so idle."

Han Yanzhi knew that his mind had been seen through by Lu Qiang and quickly bowed down again and said, "I understand, Your Majesty, you can rest assured that I will exercise my authority and not let Your Majesty down."

Lu Qiang nodded and then said, "After I go back to Jiangling, you have to solve Erliu as soon as possible. Xuzhou is also the land of the imperial court, and you can't let them continue."

"I complied with the decree

As soon as Han Yanzhi's words fell, a bodyguard hurried in. After saluted Lu Qiang, he lay beside Lu Qiang and said something softly.

"Bang!"

Lu Qiang suddenly patted the table, with thick eyebrows and tiger eyes wide open. He said angrily, "Wang Tie, take someone to catch Liu Sinu, this bastard, for me."

Catch Liu's daughter?

Han Yanzhi couldn't help but be stunned. Who didn't know that Liu's daughter was the emperor's confidant. What did he do to make the emperor so angry?
