Naturally, it was not only the army that arrived in Chang'an with Li Ze, in fact, most of the officials in the entire Wuyi court had already arrived in Chang'an. After these people entered Chang'an, they immediately entered the role. Let Chang'an, the original center of the Tang Empire, operate quickly and efficiently.

When Zhu Youzhen fled, he took with him only the army and a small group of people who were completely under his control and loyal to him. The vast majority of Liang officials are the objects of abandonment. And among these people, the vast majority of them were originally officials in the Li Yan era, and like Wang Shu, they were all betrayers.

Now, these people are the ones who tremble.

They don't know what awaits them, and they can only passively wait for the verdict of fate.

But judging by every such thing that has happened in history, reckoning is inevitable. It just depends on the severity of the degree and the scope of the impact.

"Li Xiang, we need officials, a lot of officials, especially a lot of technical officials." Cao Xin, the secretary of the ministry, sat on Li Ze's left hand side and said: "The people who arrived here in Wuyi are basically the chief officials of various ministries and departments, and we can't do anything by relying on these people." Moreover, in Wuyi, our officials are doing many people's things alone, and such a situation is actually not sustainable. ”

"You mean, you want to use some of the original officials of Chang'an?" Li Ze asked.

"I'm against it!" Yang Kai said: "There are no officials, we can transfer from the North and use those students who have not yet graduated from Wuwei Academy in advance, so that they can complete their studies while being officials." These old officials are completely inconsistent with our philosophy, and using them will only throw some rat droppings into our pot of fresh soup, and will ruin the whole pot of soup. ”

Cao Xin disagreed: "I'm talking about technical officials, not those guys who are vegetarians." Li Xiang, let's say the Taiyi Bureau. We in Wuyi have been carrying out a major reform in medicine, but a mature physician can not be trained in a short period of time, we have worked so hard over the years, but we have only trained some doctors with basic qualities on a large scale, simple diseases are naturally no problem, but complicated, just sigh. But in the Taiyi Bureau in Chang'an, there are the best doctors in the whole Tang Dynasty, why can't we use these people? ”

"Jin Yuan has looked for you?" Li Ze said with a smile.

"Yes, Jin Yuan visited several chief officials of the Taiyi Bureau one by one, and those people are not vain people." Speaking of this, Cao Xin suddenly laughed: "Because in the Taiyi Bureau, those who have lost their fame have basically been cut off their heads." ”

Everyone in the room burst into laughter.

"Li Xiang, we don't need those civilian and military generals in the past, because we can deal with these. But we need technical talents, such as weaving, weaving, dyeing, chariots and horses, and so on, but I think all officials who belong to technical positions, I can reuse them. Cao Xin said.

Li Ze nodded thoughtfully.

"Moreover, those grass-roots clerks, sword and pen officials, and officials in various ministries and offices should also be reinstated, and the army cannot always be filled with various yamen to do these things, which will not work in the long run." Cao Xin glanced at several senior military attachés on the other side.

Tu Lichun smiled: "Our soldiers are also impatient to do these things!" If there is a replacement, we are happy to pull out. ”

Under the rule of the Wuyi court, there was a strict rule, that is, the division of the military and the people, and now, at the beginning of Chang'an, basically everything is managed by the army, which is what Cao Xin said. The armed forces are violent organs, they believe in using force to solve everything, and they lack the corresponding means and skills for civil affairs, and they are inevitably rude in their actions, and it is beneficial to maintain order and establish authority in a short period of time, but over time, many incidents will inevitably arise.

"What Cao Gong and Yang Kai said makes sense." Li Ze pondered for a moment and said: "In Chang'an, there are a lot of people who originally ate the salary of the imperial court, and most of these people are those officials at the lowest level, and it is indeed not good for stability to dismiss them all, and more importantly, these people are not rebels, they just go with the flow." Whether it is Datang or Pseudo-Liang, what they do is actually the same. ”

Cao Xin nodded: "That's right." ”

"So on the part of the ministry, if you should use it, let's use it. However, there is still a need to have a review of the people who use it, for example, if the people are angry with the people, for example, if they go to the back door to eat a vegetarian meal, these people must not use it. Li Zedao.

"This is natural!" Cao Xin said: "I'm going to collect it first, then review, inspect a batch, and take up a batch." As for the Taiyi Bureau and some other professional yamen, naturally there are chief officials to screen them, and I think that the vast majority of such technocrats are still available. ”

As the head of the ministry, Cao Xin has actually suffered from a shortage of officials over the years.

Li Ze has always insisted on using the officials he has cultivated, and over the years, most of the officials appointed in the Wuyi Imperial Court have come from Wuwei Academy, so that Wuwei Academy is known as the cradle of officials, as long as they are admitted to this academy, they can basically enter the bureaucratic system.

But the number of people in Wuwei Academy is also limited.

The area under Li Ze's rule is getting bigger and bigger.

After the Northeast was taken as a whole, a large number of Wuwei students went to the Northeast with packages on their backs, and now they have taken Luoyang and Chang'an. You can't draw all the students who have just entered Wuwei Academy.

Yang Kai was silent for a moment and said, "Yes, I have no objection, but I still insist that before using them, they must be trained first, at least let them know how to be the officials of our Wuyi." These grassroots officials have the most contact with the common people, and their performance has intuitively become our performance, if they are still the same, then what is the difference between us and the imperial court in the past? The new court, the new atmosphere, must let the common people feel this. ”

"I agree with what Yang Kai said!" Li Ze: "It is necessary to train, they work during the day, and gather together at night to train, learn our laws, learn our way of doing things, and the training will be taken care of by the Supervision Yuan." The probationary period is one month, and I will be given an exam after one month, and at the same time combined with their practical operation in the work, those who pass will be hired, and they will be given a salary in accordance with our Wuyi standards, and enjoy the relevant benefits. ”

"Li Xiang, rest assured, I will definitely do this with my heart." Yang Kai said: "The king of Hades is good, the little devils are difficult, these people can't do it if they don't rectify it." I have another suggestion, I wonder if Li Xiang can take it? ”

"You say!" Li Ze raised his hand.

"In this battle, our army also suffered a lot of losses, a considerable part of them are members of the Yixing Society, I want to transfer some of these injured people who are not suitable to go to the battlefield again, and enter these low-level officials, these people can teach by word and deed, and I can have a better effect."

Li Ze looked at Tu Lichun, Wang Sili and the others.

For generals, soldiers who have been slightly injured are generally very valuable assets in the army, and most of these people will become the backbone of the army after returning from injury. As the saying goes, if a person is in the army, if he doesn't have a few scars on his body, he really speaks a little quieter.

Sure enough, as Li Ze expected, Tu Lichun, Wang Sili and the others just laughed a few times, and after looking left and right, Tu Lichun said: "We try to transfer as much as possible to let those who are not suitable for the battlefield come over, but these people, I am afraid that the lack of arms and legs will hinder the view, and there is no opinion on the side of the Cao Ministry?" ”

Yang Kai said solemnly: "These people are all meritorious ministers, even if they lack arms and legs, it's not that they can't do things, Cao Ministry, do you say yes?" ”

Cao Xin nodded helplessly.

Can he not nod, if he doesn't nod, he will immediately offend Yang Kai, Tu Lichun and everyone else. For Tu Lichun and others, being able to arrange a proper place for these wounded people is also very good in the morale of the army.

"Then let's do this thing, and let Chang'an return to normal operation as soon as possible." Li Zedao. "Has Caoyun's side been restored?"

Guo Fengxiao of the Ministry of Industry nodded and said: "The Cao Canal has been dredged, but the deployment of materials will take time, and it is estimated that the first batch of materials will arrive in Chang'an in ten days." ”

"Nowadays, land transportation is difficult, and we must increase our efforts on the transportation side." Li Ze advised: "On the Chang'an side, it is temporarily supported by the army's grain stocks, but this will not last many days." Only when the materials come in, can we stabilize people's hearts, and only when people's hearts are settled, then we can do other things. The household department should find a way to mobilize money and grain from all over the country to support the current situation. ”

Xia He said: "These things are already being done. Many businessmen have raised grain to march to Luoyang, but the rise in grain prices is inevitable, and many businessmen have proposed to the Department of Commerce to raise one to two percent above the highest standards we have audited, because at this time they have no profit because of the rise in transportation, labor and other costs. ”

"Yes!" Li Ze immediately agreed. "You can't use the price standard of our northern land to measure the price here in Chang'an, and I don't think it's too much to increase by one to two percent. If you don't let others make money, if you want people to do things in the future, it will be difficult. ”

"If they are allowed to increase the price, then I have no problem here." Xia Ho Road.
