"You all have good candidates to recommend!" Qin Shihuang's eyes swept across the court.

Although the assessment and promotion of officials are now common, it has no effect on the emperor. He will use whoever he wants to. When encountering such candidates from the Ministry of Personnel who are not satisfied with this kind of candidates, he will naturally ask to adopt the recommendation system that was used to be used.

Although the disadvantages of recommendations are great, the advantage is that they can easily and quickly find some very capable people.

After a slight commotion in the court, many officials soon stood up and recommended some candidates, but almost all of them were rejected by the emperor.

Chen Xu talked with the emperor several times before about the great role of shipping in the future. Therefore, in the view of the First Emperor, the customs has a huge role in the future. A minister he believed could be able to control the sea boundary of tens of thousands of miles. In the future, the customs will be an extremely important source of tax revenue for the Qin Dynasty. Therefore, one must be upright and selfless, and cannot become a huge corrupt because of the huge wealth brought by overseas trade.

After seven or eight consecutive recommended candidates were rejected by the First Emperor, all the officials who had hope and confidence in the court stopped and the court quickly calmed down again.

"Is there a good candidate for the Young Master?" The First Emperor finally put his hope on Chen Xu.

Chen Xu smiled bitterly and stood up and bowed, saying, "Your Majesty, the Customs Administration has a huge role in the future. The candidates do need to be carefully considered, but now they have just begun to prepare. I think Your Majesty can first select one of the candidates recommended by the Ministry of Personnel and your colleagues. It will not be too late to make arrangements in the future depending on the results!"

"It's okay. Everything is planned and not planned, and it will be abolished. Since the customs is so important, I naturally have to be more cautious. If there is someone to choose a young master, I will recommend one first. I will decide!" Qin Shihuang said calmly.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Chen Xu pinched his chin and thought for a moment before bowing, "I recommend Li You, the governor of Sanchuan County!"

"Wow~~" There was a commotion in the court. Not only did the civil and military officials turn their heads to look at Chen Xu in confusion, but even the First Emperor was stunned. Feng Quji and Meng Yi stared at Chen Xu's face with confusion, as if they wanted to see if Chen Xu was unconscious.

Li You is Li Si's eldest son, or the emperor's in-laws (I wrote incorrectly before, Li You did not marry a princess, but Li You's son married a princess, and his daughter married a princess. I'll correct it here!), but since Li Si died, Li You, the son of Shangqing, who was once highly concerned, soon disappeared. Li Si and Chen Xu had fought several times in the court against each other, and less than ten days after Li Si's death, Chen Xu sat on the throne of the Left Prime Minister. In everyone's eyes, Chen Xu and Li Si are enemies.

Since it was an enemy, Chen Xu suddenly asked Li You to be the third-rank chief of the Customs Department for no reason, which confused everyone.

Although Li You is currently a third-rank county magistrate, the identities of local officials and officials in the center of the court are not very different. Judging from the traditions and habits passed down from Shang and Zhou dynasties, everyone believes that only officials standing in the court are the ministers that the emperor really likes, and the officials who are released are all foreign ministers and are ministers who are not close to each other.

Therefore, since ancient times, exile has meant demotion and falling out of favor. The promotion to a capital official is considered a high promotion, and it is worthy of great celebration, including the reward of princes. The closer the fiefdom is to the capital, the more noble it is, and the farther it is from the capital, the less attention it is.

Li You has been the magistrate of Sanchuan County for eight years and has achieved excellent results in merit exams. However, because Chen Xu was assassinated at Hangu Pass four years ago, Li You was implicated as the magistrate of Sanchuan County. If it weren't for Li Si, he would have been dismissed by the emperor. After Li Si's death, Li You was still the magistrate of Sanchuan County, but his status in the minds of all officials in the court suddenly dropped to an optional level. A mere third-rank local official, the sixth-rank official in the capital could not be discouraged. In the eyes of many officials, Li You could actually drive him away earlier and then send someone from his own family or faction to be the magistrate of Sanchuan County.

"Your Majesty, Li You served as the magistrate of Sanchuan County for several years. I heard that the official voice is very good. Moreover, the county town of Luoyang has also developed rapidly in recent years. It is as prosperous and lively as Xianyang. It can be seen that Li You is also a chief officer with pioneering and innovative ideas. The Customs Office and other offices are different. Everything is starting over and there is no experience to learn from. I think it is necessary to take charge of an official who is both steady and mature and pioneering and innovative. Although I have had several quarrels with Li Xiang before and have huge conflicts in the concept of governing the country, there is no hatred between them. It is because I, Daqin, did not avoid closeness and distantness to have today's prosperous era. Li You is a senior I admire very much. I believe that Li You can also devote his life to Daqin like Li Xiang, so that I will not fall into the reputation of the Qing family..."

Chen Xu's words were sincere and sincere, and his words were thrilling.

All civil and military officials were silent, and only heard Chen Xu's voice echoing in the empty court.

Even after hearing this, Qin Shihuang held his beard and looked serious and silent for a few seconds before nodding and speaking with great emotion: "The young master is in the world and does not avoid relatives and distant relatives. I feel very relieved. Li You is the eldest son of Prime Minister Li. He has been in charge of Sanchuan County for several years and has worked hard. In recent years, he has indeed made great efforts to govern Sanchuan County in an orderly and prosperous manner. Well, according to the recommendation of the young master, Li You was transferred to the capital to take charge of the Customs Office. The Su Mansion Order drafted an order and sent it to the Secretariat of the Secretariat to issue a pass on. As for the position of Sanchuan County, the Ministry of Personnel will quickly arrange the candidates..."

"I will obey the order!" The CRRC commander Su Yue and the Ministry of Revenue ordered Shen Gongyan to stand up and bow together to promise.

Chen Xu's recommendation of Li You caused a big uproar in the court, but after many officials figured it out, they had to admit that Chen Xu's approach would greatly improve the sequelae brought about by his original battle with Li Si, and would win over many of Li Si's hardcore disciples of the magic sect. Moreover, the use of Li You without avoiding relatives and enemies will also greatly boost Chen Xu's reputation among the people and officials.

Although Chen Xu was a left prime minister and a disciple of the immortal family, the court was just the court. Neither civil nor military officials nor princes nor ministers would be in the same way as him. Everyone had their own family interests and political stance. Li Si had been deeply involved in the court for more than ten years, and after becoming the left prime minister, the disciples of the legal system were almost completely covered in the court. Many officials in this court still had a very hostile attitude towards Chen Xu. Now Chen Xu used this method to weaken the secret hostility of the court and the people to gain more support.

The surprise and astonishment on Gu Jing Wubo's cheeks slowly faded away, and finally nodded slightly and turned into a strange thing, even with a slight fear.

Today he suddenly realized that Chen Xu's court style was so unfamiliar with it. From the previous tit-for-tat or even pretended to be forbearance to a kind of elegance and generosity, and without any pretentiousness, he began to resolve deeper contradictions and resistances in the court.

In seven years, this Qin nobleman who was just a mountain boy at the time and showed his sharpness after coming to Xianyang finally became a true top powerful man, and began his deeper layout for the future of the Qin Dynasty.

Li You's affairs were soon overwhelmed by more other court affairs.

But after the scattered date, this matter will definitely become the hottest topic of discussion among the officials.

After the beginning of spring, there were many memorials from all over the country, especially the requests for the construction of various new factories and large-scale textile factories were endless every day. Therefore, the court's political discussion lasted for an hour, and it was not until the noon bell rang that the official duties reported by civil and military officials were completed.

After Qin Shihuang asked three times, no civil and military officials reported the matter.

Just when all the civil and military officials touched their hungry stomachs and began to tidy up their heads of the court, thinking that the First Emperor would soon announce his retreat, Qin Shihuang suddenly stood up with a majestic expression on his face.

"The Su Mansion Order drafted the order..."

"Ah!?" The CRRC Mansion Order Su Yue was stunned for a while before he woke up, and quickly took out the pen, ink, paper and inkstone in his hand and arranged them all.

"Thirty-five years have passed since I ascended the throne and became the King of Qin. I have been the King of Qin. I have been reviewing the memorials and dealing with state affairs. I have worked hard to sleep day and night. I just want to live up to the trust of the ancestors and make our Great Qin a prosperous country. Later, with the assistance of many beloved ministers, I swept the six kings and unify China. The Great Qin has the prosperity today. General, Marquis Tongwu, Prime Minister Li and other deceased officials and all the beloved ministers have made great contributions. But the great Qin has the brilliant events today because I have received the assistance of an immortal disciple..."

When Qin Shihuang spoke, he looked at Chen Xu with his eyes soft and focused.

"Your Majesty, I have only done my duty as a minister. I have not made as much contribution to the General and the Marquis of Tongwu who have expanded their territory, and I have not been able to uphold the central government to formulate national policies for Your Majesty. Your Majesty praises me so much!"

Chen Xu knew that Emperor Shi was going to be named Grand Tutor today, but he was a little ashamed by Emperor Shi so praised.

To be honest, he was able to promote the development of the Qin Dynasty to its present level. It would not work without Wang Jian and Wang Ben, a father and son who swept across the six countries to unify China, nor would it work without the strict laws implemented by Li Si, nor would it work if the emperor spared no effort to support it.

He was able to reach the present level. It can be said that he was in good condition and in good condition. He just presented a globe.

If I hadn't met Qin Shihuang, a genius and very tolerant emperor, I would have to put countless questions to success.

The dialogue between Emperor Qin Shi and Chen Xu and the ministers made the court's cultural relics unaware of this. At this time, they could only sit in their own position, either lowering their heads or watching them with concentration or twisting their beards, not knowing what the emperor suddenly said about these things.

"Since the young master entered Xianyang, he made steel and cement, made saddles and stirrups to create weapons. In just one year, he conquered the Xiongnu and Donghu, calmed the hundreds of years of troubles in the northwest, and then opened a newspaper and bookstore to quell the disturbances of hundreds of students. Later, he practiced the Oriental Dao and loosened Shangyu to implement steel farm tools and new farming methods, which allowed us to enrich our food in Daqin. The people lived and worked in peace and contentment. The tax revenue of the court increased year by year. The implementation of monetary reform and the opening of a Chinese money house also greatly reduced the expenses of the court.

And the burden of operation, porcelain, glass, newspapers, food, books, improved carriages running around the world, new sailing boats travel through the rivers and seas, Cuju Commercial Plaza and Spring and Autumn Market also made our Great Qin business flourish, Ping Yuezhi, conquer Baiyue, spread the Western Regions, connect the Western countries, and cross the islands of Yingzhou. These are all the contributions of the young master. I, along with the civil and military officials of the court, and with the people of the world, are all the enjoyers of the young master's merits. If there were no young masters, I would probably never have imagined these in my lifetime..."

While Emperor Qin Shi, he slowly walked down the nine steps and came to Chen Xu, "I got Chen Qing and won thousands of troops. Chen Qing is a good teacher who was given to me by heaven. Chen Qing sat down and received my bow. From now on, he will be my commander!"
