Qiming 1158

Chapter 597 Is this the treatment from the dragon?
This kind of meeting behind closed doors to distribute power gave Su Yonglin a strange feeling.

Su Yonglin felt that the founding emperors of the past dynasties, or the emperors who became emperors through some improper means, have done such things.

Although this kind of thing is not seen in historical data, the distribution of power has never been a matter of integrity.

And there are no tangible benefits, and everyone is not a relative, so who would be born to die for someone who is not a relative?
Nothing but power and wealth.

And ideals, pure ideals.

But Su Yonglin and this group of old bureaucrats and old gentry have no ideals to talk about. Everyone should just talk about power and interests, just like a group of robbers who got together after robbing a bank to divide the spoils.

"Since the matter has been said almost, let's talk about something else, the country is just established, many things have to be done by people, there are so many things, even I can see my scalp numb, I think You know, how long does it take to get all these things done.”

Su Yonglin looked helpless and sighed, saying that the people present were very emotional.

Finally came the main event.

Who do those important positions of power?

Who controls those important powers?
The founding emperor knew, but what about the founding dignitaries?

All of you here, what promises of official positions can you get?
They looked at Su Yonglin eagerly, with a straight back and eagerness on their faces.

Su Yonglin looked around at them and set his eyes on Tian Guizi.

"Tian Guizi, you have followed me for the longest time, you are diligent, hard-working and bear no complaints, you are upright, and you can't rub the sand in your eyes. I know your character the best, so I will give you the position of the Zuodu Censor of the Second Grade Duchayuan. In charge, you will lead the Metropolitan Procuratorate and supervise officials for me, and if there are any illegal people, they must be dealt with severely!"

Under everyone's gaze, Tian Guizi stood up and saluted Su Yonglin.

"Chen, Tian Guizi, take orders!"

Tian Guizi's face was calm, with a look of neither joy nor sorrow, which made it difficult for people to understand whether he was happy or unhappy.

But the first officially appointed official of the state was actually the censor of Zuodu of the Imperial Court. This...

It seems that Su Yonglin, who is about to become emperor, is still more concerned about the construction of a clean government in the new dynasty, and has placed important cronies in important positions in the Supreme Court.

The ministers were stunned.

That's not all, Su Yonglin named Kong Maojie second.

"Kong Maojie, you have been a secretary by my side for a long time, with quick hands and feet, a flexible head, and an upright character. I also have full trust in you, so I will give you the position of the second-rank imperial inspector, Youdu Censor, and you will be responsible for assisting you. The Censor of Tian Zuodu has fulfilled his duties of supervising all officials, and there must be no mistake!"

Kong Maojie was not as calm as Tian Guizi, and he could still see excitement on his face.

He stood up immediately.

"Chen, Kong Maojie, take orders!"

Kong Maojie led the appointment of Youdu's censor.

The second person appointed was the Censor of Youdu. The two important positions in charge of supervising Baiguan were both from the old department brought out by Su Yonglin. The rest of the people looked at these two people and gradually became a little wary in their hearts.

Everyone knows what Su Yonglin's intention is by arranging his absolute cronies in an official office like the Metropolitan Procuratorate, which is designed to be right with officials. Everyone knows that everyone is not a fool.

Except for the feeling of being wary of these two people, the rest is pure envy.

Tian Guizi, 24 years old.

Kong Maojie, 24 years old.

They are all so young.

Rather, the team that Su Yonglin brought out, including himself, were young and energetic people. The average age of the entire team was very young, compared to the officials of the Yanyun, Shandong and foreign clans. , just like a child.

But their achievements are so high, their positions are so high, and they have so much power.

Is this the treatment from the dragon?
With the right boss and the right platform, can this really be achieved?

For a time, the Shandong scholars who could have followed in Su Yonglin's footsteps regretted that they resented their proximity to the water, but did not have the courage and vision to choose to invest in Su Yonglin.

They also didn't have the same good luck as Kong's. They were forced by Su Yonglin to get on the chariot because of the family's reputation.

when?life?
Afterwards, Su Yonglin arranged some of his own cronies in the courthouse, the Ministry of Law and the Dali Temple.

For example, the secretaries of the secretariat, Shen Ge, Zhou Lin, Jiang Chengyue, etc.

Shen Ge was appointed by Su Yonglin as the minister of the second-rank legal department, Zhou Lin was appointed as the left servant of the third-rank legal department, and Jiang Chengyue was appointed as the third-rank Dali temple minister.

Then Su Yonglin ordered the heads of the three judicial divisions to hold a joint meeting after rectifying their own internal affairs. Based on the laws of the Jin Kingdom and the Song Kingdom, they should study the new dynasty's own laws and promulgated them as soon as possible.

They are all close people that Su Yonglin put on the bright side when he was the director of the General Affairs Bureau. Now they have been assigned to the third judicial division by Su Yonglin. Obviously, Su Yonglin wants his own people to fully control the judicial process.

Although the leaders of Shandong, Yanyun, and foreign tribes were wary of such behavior, they had to admit that Su Yonglin's skills were indeed high.

As we all know, Su Yonglin's old subordinates are a group of little people from mud-legged backgrounds. They have no family background, and there is no reliable inheritance of knowledge. It is said that all what they have learned was cultivated by Su Yonglin himself, so everyone has a scale in their hearts.

In addition to the military aspect, there can be some genius-level characters to carry the pillars, and in the administrative aspect, there are really no outstanding characters.

Administration requires not only the study of governance knowledge, but also the accumulation of experience. Only by accumulating experience from the grassroots level can we do a good job in administration. Therefore, they can be low-level and middle-level officials, but they cannot be high-level administrative officials.

Putting them in important central administrative positions is indeed difficult for them, and may not be good for the country.

Su Yonglin was clearly aware of this, so he didn't do this. Instead of handing over administrative affairs to his cronies, he arranged for the cronies he brought out on a large scale among the three judicial divisions.

Although the three judicial divisions also need some professional knowledge, but in a more sense, the emperor speaks Tianxian, what he says is what he says.

As long as they are obedient enough and have basic common sense, they can also make judicial affairs beautifully and satisfy the emperor according to the script.

Yes, in their opinion, for the three judicial divisions, satisfying the emperor is more important than professionalism.

In addition, it is necessary to pay attention and listen to the emperor's words.

Whoever the emperor wants to kill, the third judicial division will follow him like a hungry wolf, tearing the people the emperor wants to kill to pieces, so that they can sit firmly on the Diaoyutai and let the wind and rain blow.

They are the killer swords in Su Yonglin's hands, and appointing them is a warning to others - be careful, I hold a killer sword in my hand, I can kill.

But the more Su Yonglin concentrated his cronies into the three judicial divisions, the more relaxed the rest of the people were.

Because these cronies have all gone to the Third Judicial Division, aren't the remaining major administrative positions all theirs?

Su Yonglin did this obviously to give a sweet date with a stick and tell them that I have a killing knife in my hand, you guys be careful - then these positions are handed over to you, you can decide.

Sure enough, Su Yonglin's next actions did not exceed their expectations.

The first is Shangshu Province, which exists as the central administrative center.

Su Yonglin claimed that Shangshuling was the head of Shangshu Province, and once someone was appointed, he would be the same prime minister.

However, Su Yonglin did not appoint Shang Shuling, the reason is very simple.

Shang Shuling is a first-rank official position, unless the credit is too high, it cannot be granted casually, and in the entire war process, no one has made such a big contribution, except for Su Yonglin himself.

As a result, Su Yonglin decided not to set the Minister of Justice to be the Prime Minister, and only set up a political member from the first rank Pingzhang as the leader of the Shangshu Province.

And the identity of this person is also very clear.

Su Yonglin decided to appoint his father-in-law, Zhao Zuoliang, the nominal commander of the Restoration Army, as the Pingzhang Political Officer, to exist as the leader of the Shangshu Province.

Then, Yelu Chenghui, the leader of the courtiers of the foreign clan, was appointed as the Zuocheng of the Shangshu, and Huo Jianbai, the core figure among the officials of the Yanyun family, was appointed as the Right of the Shangshu.

Both of them are officials of the second grade, responsible for assisting Zhao Zuoliang and managing the administrative work of Shangshu Province.

Zhao Zuoliang is not in Zhongdu now, so he cannot express his thanks in person, while Yelu Chenghui and Huo Jianbai both salute Su Yonglin and thank him.
