Everyone looked passionately at Li Chen on the white marble pedestal.
Li Chen did not keep them waiting for a long time. After thinking for a while, he answered: "I have sent people to inspect some candidates for positions. The list will be announced after it is confirmed. In addition, the Ministry of Civil Affairs will make recommendations according to the law. Officials of third grade or above will be selected."
, it will be recommended by the Ministry of Personnel and submitted to the three provinces for drafting, and then submitted to the East Palace for confirmation."
After thinking for a while, Li Chen said again: "The imperial court has always been open-minded in employing people. In ancient times, people recommended themselves according to their own needs, and the same is true in this dynasty. If you have suitable candidates, you can recommend them to the officials on your own initiative, or you can recommend them on your own initiative. There is no nepotism in hiring people.
Don’t avoid relatives, only rely on the virtuous and the capable. Since they are talents, they can be used by the court. Only in this way can talents be sent down.”
This signal is a huge benefit to the ministers present.
Because Li Chen's attitude is very clear, this time the East Palace does not intend to monopolize the more than ten positions of real power. Instead, it will follow the process. In addition to following the process, it will also provide an opportunity for all officials who do not meet the employment rules.
As long as you are capable, you can try the 'recommended' and 'self-recommended' methods.
What Li Chen said at the Great Court Meeting, on an occasion like today, will definitely not be false or pretentious. Otherwise, Li Chen's words will lose prestige. This is a loss-making business. All ministers will do this.
Everyone can see clearly.
Therefore, everyone is very excited.
As an official, who doesn’t want to have a higher rank, the better?
Being a highly respected minister is the ultimate dream of officials.
And this is also a test and signal that Li Chen intends to shake up the court's employment system. He will give a big benefit first. If it goes well, Li Chen's future employment arrangements for the court will most likely follow this idea.
Many officials are well aware of this.
Nowadays, Li Chen's identity and status will be interpreted by countless people. Li Chen will not think or do anything rashly. Everything has deep meaning.
If you can figure out his thoughts, you can naturally be one step ahead of others.
If you can't figure it out, you can't tell.
The wisdom of being a king or an official is mostly reflected in things like an antelope hanging its horns.
Zhao Xuanji looked calm, cupped his hands and said, "Your Highness is wise."
Li Chen glanced at Zhao Xuanji, and then said: "The second issue has ended, so now let's start the third issue. In fact, this third matter is not an issue, but a notice."
Li Chen looked up, scanning the whole place, and then said: "I intend to tour the south, and the time will be two days later, the second day of the first lunar month of the Kuimao year."
Southern tour!
When these words fell on the ears of the officials, everyone was astonished.
Everyone looked around at each other, and saw that the other colleagues' expressions of shock were no less shocking than their own. This showed that no news of this news had leaked out before Li Chen announced it in public.
In the Qin Empire, it was extremely rare for an emperor or prince to tour abroad.
It's not that the emperor of the Qin Dynasty didn't like to show off, nor was it that the emperor of the Qin Dynasty was so economical and worried about wasting money and people, but the system of enfeoffing princes in the Qin Dynasty determined that the emperor or the prince had almost no way to patrol the country as he pleased.
The enfeoffed princes did not want to go to the capital because of the risk of being put under house arrest and staying. Why didn't the emperor do the same?
