Chapter 1630
1306. Dogdan Draws a Car
Mao Jue was slightly surprised and immediately said, "I am willing to rely on the emperor to dispatch it."
"Um!"
Zhao Dongting nodded slightly, "Then you will serve as the assistant to the supervisory order first, follow Zhao Aiqing and share the worries for Zhao Aiqing."
The assistant to the Supervision Order was a new official position added by Zhao Dongting after the reform. To put it bluntly, it was similar to the secretary. Although the official title was not very high, the power was not small.
No matter what, he is also the person around the chief official.
In fact, Zhao Dongting wanted to send Mao Jue to Zhao and Luo as his assistant, which meant that Mao Jue would serve as the deputy supervisory order in the future.
Nowadays, there are many talents in the court, but there are only ones who have enough qualifications to serve as chiefs and deputy chiefs of various departments. He needs to raise the qualifications of these officials.
Under his many new policies, the new Song Dynasty actually selected Jinshi from various professions can be more adapted to these new policies. In Zhao Dongting's mind, he also felt that only by waiting for those new talents to take office can the Song Dynasty achieve a true transformation. However, this kind of thing must be done step by step. Because there are too many relationships involved.
Not to mention anything else, just now that Zhang Xizai, Chen Jianghan, Zhang Shijie and others are about to retire, Zhao Dongting is a little worried. If all the old ministers in the court are replaced, the officialdom of the Song Dynasty will be in turmoil. Some people may not rebel, but there will always be many unnecessary troubles.
If it is not done well, the court will even split the two factions of conservative and innovative. This is undoubtedly something that Zhao Dongting does not want to see.
Before the border was stable, Zhao Dongting was unwilling to take drastic measures in the court and take unnecessary dangers. Because the Song Dynasty seemed strong, but its foundation was actually still shallow, and it was really impossible to withstand much trouble.
Not long after, Zhao and Luo and others took Zhao Dongting's imperial edict.
Zhao Dongting also brought Chen Jianghan, Secretary of Finance and Minister Zhu Hecongxuan into the imperial study room.
With Chen Jianghan's age, not to mention retiring to the second line, it is almost time to retire.
The chief officers of other departments can still be slower, but he can't even slower here.
Zhao Dongting couldn't bear to see Chen Jianghan so old and continued to work day and night for the Finance Department.
After the two of them entered the imperial study, Zhao Dongting directly asked Chen Jianghan: "Shangshu Chen, I wonder if Mr. Zhu's performance in the Finance Department will satisfy you?"
Because Zhu Hecong was close to him and went out from him again, Zhao Dongting didn't shy away when he asked this.
In his heart, he regarded Zhu Hecong as a very close person.
Zhu Hecong was indeed not disliked, he was just smiling.
Chen Jianghan instantly understood the intention of Zhao Dongtingxuan and his two people entering the imperial study room. He looked at Zhu Hecong and replied: "Go back to the emperor, Mr. Zhu has outstanding abilities. But the old minister has handed over all the matters of the Finance Department to Mr. Zhu in charge of the remaining months ago."
"oh?"
Zhao Dongting was a little surprised, "Now the Finance Department is under the jurisdiction of Mr. Zhu?"
Chen Jianghan smiled and said, "The emperor only needs to read the Finance Department's statement to understand. Old ministers can retire with confidence!"
He had known that Zhao Dongting wanted to put Zhu Hecong in the Finance Department, so after allocating funds to Jiangnan West Road, he simply asked Zhu Hecong to take on the responsibility of the Finance Department.
In this way, it can be considered as a way to go with the flow.
When Zhao Dongting saw that Chen Jianghan said this from the bottom of his heart, his smile did not seem to be fake, so he felt relieved.
He had no doubts about Zhu Hecong's ability. He had only a little concern before, that is, Zhu Hecong was young and would it be difficult for him to convince the finance department?
But until now, there is no ginseng Zhu Hecong in the Ministry of Finance, and Chen Jianghan also recognizes him. I think this kind of worry is no longer necessary.
Zhao Dongting was originally a decisive and decisive person. He immediately stopped hesitating and said with a smile: "Since that's the case, then Chen Shangshu, you will be appointed as a Hanlin Bachelor and let Mr. Zhu take over your class. How about it?"
Chen Jianghan nodded while stroking his beard, "It's so good."
Judging from his appearance, he clearly recognized Zhu Hecong.
Zhu Hecong showed a little excitement.
Although he has been in charge of the Finance Department recently, he is completely different now to be promoted to the Minister of Finance Department.
He also understood the high expectations Zhao Dongting had for him.
He was the only one among the young officials who were promoted to the chief official at this time.
He hurriedly knocked to the ground and said to Zhao Dongting: "My minister Zhu Hecong thanked the emperor."
Zhao Dongting waved his hand gently, "Just don't let me down."
This sentence made Zhu Hecong understand his intentions even more.
Zhao Dongting promoted him to the Minister of Finance to make him a proclaimer among young officials. It can also be said that it is a proclaim among new talents.
If he performed well in the Finance Department, it would be natural for Zhao Dongting to promote new talents in the future.
And if he doesn't do well, then if Zhao Dongting wants to achieve a major blood change in the court, he will probably have to spend a lot of extra money.
As for Chen Jianghan, although he resigned as Minister of Finance, Zhao Dongting could also be said to be favored by him.
The Hanlin Bachelor of the Bachelor's Academy was in charge of drafting the appointment and removal of generals and ministers, ordering orders for conquests and other secret edicts, and preparing for emperor consultants. However, he was known as the "internal minister".
If Zhao Dongting takes any big move, he would discuss with the heads of the court and the Hanlin scholars if he had nothing to do. What decision would be the first to know about the Bachelor's Academy. It would be almost impossible for him to be appointed as a Hanlin scholar if he was not the most trusted old minister. This official position is not only an honor in the Song Dynasty, but also has real power.
Even if Lu Xiufu and others retire in the future, they would probably be appointed as a Hanlin Bachelor’s Scholar like Chen Jianghan.
This is the best place for retired officials in the Song Dynasty. Only officials who are most trusted by Zhao Dongting and rely on are treated so well. Ordinary ones are afraid that they will retire if they retire.
Just the next day.
Zhao Dongting summoned all the ministers to the morning court and announced the appointments of Zhao Yuluo, Zhong Jian, Zhu Hecong and others in the court.
Zhang Shijie, Xu Yuesong, Chen Jianghan and others also retired gloriously.
Chen Jianghan and Zhang Shijie were both awarded the title of Hanlin Bachelor's.
Xu Yuesong was named Honor Advisor of the Military Science and Technology Department.
After all, it is not considered a true retirement. The Song Dynasty today cannot completely leave these old ministers.
Although many of the ministers were surprised, no one objected.
As Zhao Dongting successively promoted Zhong Jian, Mao Jue and others, the old ministers were actually mentally prepared for these young officials to gradually enter the center.
Many of them also realize their shortcomings and are far inferior to those young people in terms of professional knowledge. Perhaps now, they are still happy for the Song Dynasty.
The Song Dynasty was fought with Zhao Dongting. The feelings of these people are beyond ordinary people's imagination.
For these founding heroes, the prosperity of the Song Dynasty was much more important than their personal interests.
In the Song Dynasty, it is not yet time to reveal its decay.
For several consecutive days, there were only wedding banquets on the street in front of the palace.
Zhang Shijie, Chen Jianghan and others retired to host a banquet, and the old and new ministers in the court gave face.
The entire Changsha officialdom was quite happy.
Zhao Dongting went to the workshop of the Military Science Department again. But now, he has also brought Li Goudan, the kid.
This is an unexpected discovery.
It was Zhao Dongting who found Li Goudan in the imperial study and asked him what he was doing.
Li Goudan showed the things he drew to Zhao Dongting, scratched his head and said, "Goudan drew randomly, thinking that the mine might be useful."
Zhao Dongting couldn't stop seeing his paintings and was a little shocked.
What Li Goudan painted was a "cable car"!
The ropes, and the boxes hanging on the ropes. This is clearly no different from the cable car in later generations.
And if something like Ruo is put on the mine, I really don’t know how much manpower can be saved.
Of course, it is impossible to really put the cable car on the mine, and it is not as simple as this, and a lot of improvements are needed.
But this still made Zhao Dongting enlightened and discovered Li Goudan’s talent and hobbies in this area.
It is natural to take Li Goudan to the workshop of the Military Science Department.
After the imperial examination reform, although he set up various subjects, most of them were related to people's livelihood and governance of the country. For example, physics and chemistry did not set up special subjects.
Now, Zhao Dongting also plans to bring out such an apprentice. I don’t know if Li Goudan can make any amazing inventions after he comes into contact with physics.
