Chapter 345.
The format is changing so fast.
Caught Zhu off guard.
So he could only express his shock in his customary language.
Finally …… Zhang Anshi arrived.
Zhang Anshi first saluted Zhu Di.
Zhu said, “The news, you know it, right? Why, what do you think?”
Zhang Anshi said very directly, “I am shocked.”
Zhu Di would have wanted to say the same thing, I am the same.
But on second thought, it’s not right, I am asking for his opinion.
So the words came to a pause and turned, “What do you think?”
Zhang Anshi seriously thought about it and said, “Immediately depose a few officials and forcibly kill the readers …… I think ……… think… …Your Highness, King of Shu, would it be too radical?”
This word is actually like pleasing Zhu Di, Zhu Di laughed and said, “Worthy of being after Emperor Taizu Gao! What, even you are scared?”
Zhang Anshi laughed bitterly, he introduced a new policy, if it is about opening windows, then this His Highness the King of Shu is even more ruthless, directly lifting the roof.
Well, it’s New Deal or bust!
It’s only the first day, and you’re straight up murdering people, so what you can do in the future, God only knows.
After a pause, he coughed and said, “However, His Highness the King of Shu did this, it is not without reason, the left capital governed the provinces, gathered a lot of the world’s readers, Yingtian, Suzhou, Songjiang and other places, the power of the gentry is also the most stubborn, if you do not use forcefulness, I’m afraid that it would be difficult to do anything.”
Zhu Di back hand, paced a few steps, gazing and contemplating for a while, then said: “That’s why the king of Shu needs to be so thorny. This brother of mine …… has always been gentle and elegant, I also did not expect him to have this side, when …… Lan Yu with him to suppress the western barbarians, he also wrote a letter, should be to pacify the main, do not have to kill indiscriminately. ”
“This is one time and another time.” Zhang Anshi said: “The suppression of western barbarians, in essence, in fact, is that some people are dissatisfied, killed their chief evil, the unusual barbarians to pacify and ransom, but they can get by, even if there is still prejudice against the court, but also do not dare to make trouble. After ten or twenty years, they gradually get used to it, and eventually become my Daming subjects.”
Zhang Anshi paused, then said, “But …… this New Deal is not the same, the New Deal is aimed at those whose interests have suffered a great loss. Those land, in their eyes, it is ancestral heritage, is their lifeblood. Whoever dares to move the slightest bit of such interests, they are all going to fight for their lives.”
Said, he had a serious face, said: “Your Majesty, the court as long as but moved the idea of a new government, then …… it is bound to be the same as the water and fire of the ground, and between each other, there is no longer any politeness to speak of. In the end …… it is His Highness the King of Shu knows that it is useless to pacify, and if it is ransomed, it will not satisfy their appetite. Then simply ……”
Zhu Di nodded: “When you analyze it like this, it makes sense, it seems that this brother of mine, is indeed very virtuous, he has his wisdom.”
Zhang Anshi but sighed and said: “is reckless some, I think there is no need to do so ugly, just like the minister …… is Xu Xu Tu Zhi, slow knife to cut meat, His Highness the King of Shu’s tactics, only to scare a lot of people.”
Zhu Di, on the contrary, laughed cheerfully and said, “You’re afraid of this? Then if Emperor Taizu Gao was around, wouldn’t your liver and gall break?”
“Ah ……” Zhang Anshi was momentarily speechless.
It was an awkward question, it seemed, how he answered it!
At this time, just in time, a eunuch hurried in and said, “Your Majesty, His Highness the King of Shu has an urgent message.”
Zhu Di looked excited and said, “Fetch it for me to see.”
So a sprawling tens of thousands of words, sent to Zhu Di’s front.
Zhu recognized the handwriting of the King of Shu.
You should know that the general clan king’s report to the court is to let his own long history or knife pen official to write on behalf of the pen, dictate his own meaning and let people embellish.
But this His Highness, the King of Shu, is too talented, can be said to be full of wisdom, all of the cadres as well as edicts, are their own handwriting, refused to let people on behalf of the work.
After Zhu Di read it, he first took a deep breath, and then silently nodded the zhengshi and glanced towards Zhang Anshi.
Yiluoha, who had been standing silently on the sidelines, understood and hurriedly handed the zhengshi to Zhang Anshi to read.
Zhang Anshi had roughly read it and roughly understood what it meant.
Here head …… is actually a lengthy about the transfer of officials under the rule of the left capital.
Twenty-seven of these officials requested to be deposed, and layers of replacements to fill the vacancies, and not only that, forty-nine new officials were requested.
Of course, this is just child’s play, and the next step is to take a big step forward.
To be in Yingtianfu, set up a civil servant school, all good performance of the civil servant, will be into the Yingtianfu training, teaching is the way of the official, as well as a variety of laws and decrees, etc. ……
Also pleaded with Zhu Di, replace the inspectors of the various road inspection division inspectors, all the military ministers, try not to let the local inspectors to be responsible for, which inspectors, as well as the county magistrates of the counties, by the king of Shu’s Shu king guards, the allocation of close to the people.
If you say the former, there is almost no need to hesitate, while the latter, in fact, is somewhat of a taboo.
While the county lieutenant manages local security, the inspector, though also responsible for security, is in fact often tasked to fight thieves, with a little bit of military attributes.
Although this point of personnel mobilization, for the warrior battalion in the palace, the model battalion in Qixia, and the various forbidden guards, as well as the pro army east factory jinyiwei, it is not worth a question.
But after all, once the King of Shu was allowed to intervene in these, it would be the same as allowing the King of Shu to have some control over the military as well.
Even if it is optional, it is quite sensitive.
Zhu Di was not angry, instead he laughed and said, “This brother of mine, he is really bold!”
Zhang Anshi said, “His Highness the King of Shu …… seems to be planning to break the boat.”
Zhu Di looked at him and said, “What do you think?”
Zhang Anshi said, “During the actual clearing process, I often suffered local obstruction, but fortunately, I was practicing military law, so I could directly mobilize the Model Battalion and the Jinyiwei to suppress it.”
Zhang Anshi with a look of deep understanding then said: “Obviously the king of Shu also understands, alone sent some civil officials to clear the land, audit the situation of the hidden field, is not a million, but if you use the local county lieutenant and inspector, these people often and local entanglements are too deep, mobilizing the other men and horses, he can not be familiar with the mastery, so that is why he hopes to use the king of Shu guards of the people, I would like to think that …… there is nothing wrong with this, such things, must be so.”
Zhu Di nodded his head, obviously also agree, then said, “In that case, then …… order him to transfer one thousand Shu Wangwei officials and schools into the capital, transfer what people, he himself to choose, county lieutenants, inspectors and other officials, he to decide.”
Zhu paused, then said, “This point of people, is it enough?”
Zhang Anshi said, “It should be enough, even if it’s not enough, the Jinyiwei, on my side, can assist.”
Zhu Di nodded his head, he is not a person who likes to drag his feet when doing things, so he then looked at Yiluoha and said, “Go and give the decree, immediately.”
Yiluoha nodded and rushed off to do his work.
Zhu Di then looked at Zhang Anshi said: “I am now resting on my laurels, the only worry is that he is too anxious point, do not provoke civil unrest only good.”
This is something to worry about, so Zhang Anshi said, “Yes, suddenly so, and also so thunderous, is bound to cause dissatisfaction in all the provinces, this place, the literary style is flourishing, the literary style is flourishing, the stubborn people are more, once the people’s grievances rise up, it will be bad.”
Zhu Di raised his eyebrows and seemed to have thought of something, his expression became solemn as he said, “Is that so? Does anyone else dare to rebel?”
Zhang Anshi then said, “It’s not easy to say, even if we don’t rebel, it will breed a lot of trouble out.”
Zhu was thoughtful.
Zhang Anshi then said, “But …… I have a little idea that can solve the problem at hand.”
Zhu Di looked at Zhang Anshi, “Hm?”
Zhang Anshi smiled and drew out a zhongshe, said, “Your Majesty …… this is my zhongshe …… please your majesty to read it.”
Zhu Di looked deeply at Zhang Anshi, he could not help but wonder in his heart, what is this Zhang Anshi …… doing again?
Waiting for Zhu Di carefully read the zhangshi, with a strange look continue to look deeply at Zhang Anshi: “Feasible?”
Zhang Anshi was full of confidence and said, “According to the minister’s many years of experience …… it should be feasible.”
Zhu Di heard it, but did not nag, directly spit out a word: “Permission.”
After the monarch and minister chatted for a while longer, Zhang Anshi took his leave and went out, in a rather happy mood.
Nowadays, he’s no longer working alone.
This head just left the palace, the accompanying lieutenant immediately came forward and said with an excited face, “Yingtianfu has become a pot of porridge, but it’s great, it’s great.”
Zhang Anshi revealed a trace of a smile with a different meaning and said, “Make a scene, make a scene, you take people’s land, rob people’s money, and you don’t allow them to make a scene? Go, hit the road and return home.”
…………
Soon a decree arrived at the Left Governor’s Office.
Zhu Chun, the king of Shu, received a decree that his emperor’s royal brother had graciously approved of his sangha, and did not make Zhu Chun, the king of Shu, feel strange.
Therefore, he did not say anything more, but only deliberately …… spread out this decree on his own case, and then went to the light house to rest.
When the official in charge of managing the paperwork, went to pack up Zhu Chun’s case, looked at the spread out decree, his face froze, and his eyes were about to fall off.
And soon afterward, an explosive news came out from within this Governor’s Mansion.
Soon, not only this governor’s mansion, but also Yingtian Province, and now the nearest Shangyuan County, the news are spreading.
Soon the clerkship class is going to start.
Not only a group of people to go to Qixia to learn, this side is also to open a class, heard that His Highness the King of Shu will personally come to do this chief instructor, teaching is …… the way of the official and also the law and order ………
And …… it’s rumored …… that many of them are going to be laid off.
This transfer could be huge, with at least hundreds of officer cuts and appointments at stake.
And His Majesty has already granted permission for His Highness the King of Shu to rule himself.
Self-determination doesn’t mean suicide, it means making up your own mind.
This one ……
All the capitals, all the counties, went crazy.
While the officials of the counties were still in a dilemma, the clerks and servants at the lower levels had already started to clear the land with their fists.
It is important to know that in the local government system of Daming, the so-called iron officials and running water officials.
All these officials are also from the imperial examinations, and they do not have much practical experience at all, and many of them can be said to know nothing about governance.
Even if they are interested, they are only interested in litigation, because litigation can fulfill the good name of a great lord of the sky. If you are willing to manage a little more, is to repair the river and the county school, because these two, have political achievements.
As for the vast majority of things, officials don’t know what to do about it, and actually don’t bother.
This is in fact and the readers do not want to get involved in too much mundane matters related to, in the eyes of the Qingliu, magistrates are mundane officials, not quite look down on.
But in the eyes of the local officials, they also have their own set of contempt chain, those who are really specific to deal with the complicated affairs of the clerical officials, they also become the object of their contempt.
Nowadays …… magistrates are not willing to go to clear the land, but they are worried that the cap will not be guaranteed, but these knife and pen officials are not the same, they are too active, one by one, they are looking forward to the order to show their hands.
Even …… they now do not care about the so-called oil and water, especially those knife and pen officials, they are read, read the book, but for the officials, itself is in a contradiction, now …… the opportunity has come.
All counties and the government’s servants, but also in each other to pass each other the news, and now the Taiping Province side of the situation, is the example, and now His Majesty’s decree to support, His Highness, the King of Shu, do not hesitate to kill people in front of the court, the attitude is also very obvious.
Now is considered to be the clouds see the sun, the situation and momentum if you can not understand, then it is really stupid as a pig.
Even possible, in the future,…… a large number of official vacancies, it gives a lot of hope to turn around, and after clearing the land, if it is also the implementation of the general law of the officials of the Taiping Province, even if the future of their own not for the official, but at least, it is also a serious formal establishment, which is different from the former but the sky capsule.
“Your Highness ……”
At this time, in the light house, the King of Shu was slowly and methodically dining alone.
One of the clerks came hurriedly and saluted.
Zhu Chun, the King of Shu, looked unchanged, holding up his chopsticks on one side as he said, “Huh?”
The Secretary said, “Students …… heard …… Yingtianfu Judge Liu Jian, greatly dissatisfied with the new policy, he authorized the Shangyuan County magistrate …… to say that there is no need to rush to clear the zhang ……”
Only then did Zhu Chun put down his chopsticks and looked up at the Secretary, “Is the news true?”
This official said: “It is the government official Li Wen, and Shangyuan County official Wang Heng two people played, the news is accurate, Judge Liu …… and the local gentry, the relationship is very shallow …… Your Highness … … to clear the land after, his house, immediately on the car horse like a dragon, many local gentry, have gone to find him to talk about …….”
Zhu Chun smiled, but appeared to have little interest in this Judge business.
Instead, he turned toward the clerks at the side and said, “Fetch a pen and ink.”
The clerk then hastened to fetch a pen and ink.
Zhu Chun, with an old-fashioned look on his face, said in front of the Secretary, “You just said that the government official’s name is Li something?”
“Levine ……”
Zhu Chun added, “And the other one?”
The official was uncertain, but obediently said, “Another one is Wang Heng, the official of Shangyuan County.”
Zhu Chun wrote down the names of these two with one stroke, then said, “Your name is Deng Chengpu, is it?”
This Secretary was even more puzzled, and hesitantly said, “Student …… student …… student …… student …… is exactly… …”
Zhu Chun also wrote down his name, and then handed this paper to the clerk, and then said, “This …… is clipped in this king’s logbook today.”
The clerk took it and was busy going.
Zhu Chun at this time is toward the Secretary said, “Come …… sit down, have you eaten?”
“Ah …… don’t dare, don’t dare, eaten.”
Zhu Chun also did not force, then said, “This magistrate …… this king slightly heard, the government and the county, this king also slightly know some, but he dared to conspire with others, this nature is not the same, but this is no harm …… District a judge only, you go, this king will be disposed of.”
This official then went away joyfully.
But just as he stepped out of the small hall, he heard Zhu Chun inside suddenly commanding to his sidekick, “Judge Liu Jian is committing a rebellion, his crime is unpardonable, go and capture him immediately, don’t let him escape.”
Then I heard the attendant’s voice that looked hesitant said, “Make a mess …… Your Highness, if you make a mess …… it should be the factory guards …… ”
Zhu Chun’s voice chilled a few points and said, “In that case, this king still can’t be convicted of rebellion?”
“If they are corrupt, the following will allow the Shomasho to catch them.”
Zhu Chun’s voice said, “Well, this king writes a warrant for the Shou Mill to immediately go and investigate, take a copy of his home to see if there is any corruption and abuse of the law, be quick and do not let the wind out.”
The follower said, “What if we don’t search and seize it?”
“It’s his luck if he can’t search it.”
“Here.”
It didn’t take long for someone to come out at a brisk pace, even faster than this Secretary, brushing past him directly behind him at a fast pace.
This Secretary staggered, and afterward, the mood was pleasant.
Between officials, at least here, there is no such thing as affection, not even subordination.
Because the official is too noble, and the mandarin is too lowly, so …… this mandarin is not even as good as a cow or a horse in the eyes of the superior official.
As a result, clerical officials scrambled to betray their superiors without any psychological burden at all.
And …… this His Highness the King of Shu also deliberately wrote down their names, which made this secretary feel even more refreshing.
It seems that he and the other two kindred spirits may have a place in the study class, whether they go to Taipingfu, or in Yingtianfu.
It’s all about his future!
So he returned cheerfully to his public room, by which time it was dark.
But with the public office of a dozen clerical officials, but one by one to pick the lamp in the transcription of the official documents, or check the documents into the archives, there are also people to collect the provinces and counties to send the official documents to be sorted, a busy scene.
This was unprecedented in the past, and even if the occasional person was still around at night, they were mostly all over the place and people were moping around.
But now even those old mandarins, actually also all of a sudden a lot of spirit, they are old, not many opportunities, rely on this time to clear the acres of land.
Someone with a book, looking for this Secretary, said: “Deng Secretary, the counties clearing the situation, sent, there are still a lot of counties, seems to be perfunctory, you see this …… this Songjiang Province Huating County, until now there is no action, all of the official documents under the Governor’s Office, they are pressed in the hands. ”
“Supervise once more, if there is no response again, report it immediately.” Deng Secretary said, “Also, have someone go and ask the local Secretaries of the various houses about the actual situation, you can not have to send an official letter …… Huating County ……”
He thought for a moment and then said, “The official of the Household Room of Huating County, can it be the same one named Zhou Cheng?”
At this time, a clerical official in the official’s room said, “Yes, it’s still that Zhou Cheng.”
“Send a letter to ask him to play the actual situation, no need to go through official documents, write a note to go.” Deng Siwei said, “If it’s just slow, it’s not a big deal, but if it’s a yangzhi, it’s not a small matter!”
After a pause, Deng SiLan added: “Tell this Zhou Cheng, he has been a mandarin for many years, his heart should be clear, if he covers up anything for someone, when the time comes, even he himself is involved, it’s not worth it.”
“Okay, student to fix the book.”
Secretary Deng thought for a moment and said, “No need, I’ll fix the book.”
After saying this, he returned to his paperwork and put pen to paper.
……
Zhang Anshi had only returned to the Governor’s Mansion on this end when Gao Xiang arrived.
When Gao Xiang handed out a book to Zhang Anshi in person, he said, “This is the status of the merit exams of the new officials who joined last year.”
Zhang Anshi nodded, but put this book down on the paperwork first and said, “Has the Left Governor’s Office approached us?”
Gao Xiang said, “Approached, the Institute is to select three hundred people, the next official intends to let them break up, divided into the county offices of each county to learn.”
Zhang Anshi said, “We should also be responsible for doing a merit examination for these left capitalists for the left capitalist side’s reference.”
“Yes, the side …… of the Shouma Institute has been greeted by the subordinate, and will pay extra attention.”
Zhang Anshi smiled and said: “And …… choose a few clerical officials, let them take a break, go to the left governor’s office, there to open a study class, I’m afraid to want a few people to teach some of the experience of the implementation of the new government, the candidate … … you report to me, I will approve. … you report up, I’ll approve.”
Gao Xiang smiled bitterly and said, “There are not enough officials in Taipingfu, and now people are needed everywhere ……”
“Hard is hard some well …… so ……” Zhang Anshi said, “Taipingfu again to recruit a number of clerical officials, this time, recruitment standards, may as well raise some more.”
Gaoxiang immediately rejoice, because the mandarins also belong to the establishment of the sake, and involves the issue of money and food supply, so now the Governor’s Office will be the post of the clerical staff card is still relatively tight, each Yamen, each division, each room, each place, each station, the number of people are rated, each year, although there is a recruitment of the amount of money. But now a special batch of people, he this governor, but also much easier.
After sending Gao Xiang away, that Chen Li had been probing outside.
“Dudu.”
Zhang Anshi looked at him and smiled, “Come in! How’s it going, things are all set, right?”
When Chen Li walked in, he said, “It’s just waiting for the Governor’s side.”
Zhang Anshi then said, “I am afraid that you make a mistake, my side …… is surely no problem, just now I was in the palace, his majesty has already graciously approved, no accident, tomorrow there will be a result, your side, at any time for me to be ready.”
Chen Li had a look of admiration on his face as he said, “The Duke’s work is really thunderous.”
Zhang Anshi grinned, happy: “No matter what, these days, I want to teach Li Shimian these people …… to pay the price! Into his mother, and I Zhang Anshi yin and yang, he thought I was as good as my brother-in-law to bully?”
“Ah ……”
Chen Li was a bit dazed, he couldn’t comprehend what this had to do with His Highness the Crown Prince even if he thought about it.
But …… it doesn’t matter ……… Chen Li will make a move.
……
I’m going to try to update the second chapter today before twelve, and we’ll slowly adjust the updates back.
