Master Changshi, you have worked hard!
Work related
An improvised solution in less than two hours? "
"Yes, Your Highness."
"And everything went smoothly during the execution. Not only did the people of Dijing not find anything wrong, but they were very happy?"
"Yes……"
Princess Lin Liu breathed a sigh of relief, took out a small note in a certain book, and suddenly read: "The cold cicada is miserable, it is late to the Changting Pavilion, and the shower has just stopped. The tents in the capital have nothing to drink, Nostalgia, Lanzhou, etc. The boat urged. Holding hands and looking at the tearful eyes, I was speechless and choked. Reading to go, thousands of miles of smoke and waves, the evening mist is heavy and the sky is wide. Passionate since ancient times hurts parting, and it is so desolate in the Qingqiu Festival! Where is the drunkenness today? Yangliuan, Xiao The wind and the moon. This year, it should be a good time for a good time. Even if there are thousands of styles, who can I tell?"
"What does Zelan think?"
"Even though I have just mastered pen and ink, I still think it is a good word."
"This is an examination question for the present subject, and the one just now was written by Mr. Chang Shi in our house."
Lady Zelan was slightly surprised, but she was used to not showing it on her face, so she kept silent and continued to listen to what the princess said.
"Using the words of the second sister, in terms of poetry alone, I am afraid that it is more than even the number one scholar in this subject."
"Then..." Lin Li picked up the small letter in one hand, "With such talent," holding up the supply list with the other hand, "With such talent, if it wasn't for the fact that the second sister happened to be interested in forcing her into the palace, and However, this palace happens to have no one to send, entrusting this matter to him, who would know the talents of this Lord Chang Shi. I am very curious, what is the reason why you don't want to be an official in the court?"
Lady Zelan pondered slightly, and said hesitantly: "Looking at the blessed land of Langhuan built by Lord Changshi in the mansion, it seems that he prefers to live in seclusion, so he doesn't want to touch vulgar things."
Lin Filter chuckled lightly: "Is there anything more vulgar than our long history in the world? Tell some meaningless and strange little stories, and eat chicken wings with the brush of your own reading. That's all, most hermits are their own. Eat your own seeds, our Lord Chang Shi's house, but there is no hoe or hunting bow."
"What's more, how can a real hermit come to participate in the scientific examination? After the scientific examination, he doesn't want to be an official. There are only two purposes: 1. To deliberately attract the attention of others, so that others think they have discovered their secrets, and then reuse them. 2. There are more important secrets hidden than talent, so I don’t hesitate to sacrifice my own future.”
After hearing about the disaster for so many days, His Royal Highness Lin Li, who has been in a bad mood, showed a funny and happy innocent smile for the first time: "Ze Lan, send someone to investigate Master Han's background... Wait, remember to use your own people. "
"Yes, Your Highness." The female officer Zelan turned away and felt sympathy for the unlucky Lord Chang Shi again in her heart. Why do you always arouse the interest of this Highness?
Unfortunately, very unfortunate.
"Ah... ah... ah..."
"What is this?" Han Xiaochangshi, who was in the study of the Princess Mansion for the first time, raised his head and asked.
"It's a crow." The boy who helped tidy up nodded.
"It's a crow." Hongxiu Tianxiang's maid was even more affirmative.
"Well, I heard that this is very ominous, so be careful." Han Xiaochangshi retracted his head and covered his ears.
"Yes, Master Changshi, it's better to be careful recently." The servant kindly suggested.
"That's right." Hongxiu Tianxiang nodded gently.
"Hey! Wait! Did the three of you hear it? Why am I the only one who is careful?"
"Yes Yes."
The boy and the maid bowed their heads at the same time. If they said the truth: because your Yintang seems to have turned blue recently, which is the most unfortunate of misfortunes, Han Xiaochangshi would probably only retort: You have stayed up too late recently.
It doesn't matter, there is always a chance to prove it.
However, the current Han Xiaochangshi is not in the mood to care about these things. After rolling around like a silkworm chrysalis for several hours on the bed, she still fulfilled her promise to Mrs. Zelan.In the future, no matter how much you want to escape or don't want to know, all kinds of information will come to you everywhere, so Han Su naturally knows what kind of scene after the flood, and such a tragic scene has been processed, Han Su Su couldn't imagine how terrifying the scene was, and how helpless the people were, not to mention the fact that there were still only rudimentary safeguards and rescue measures. Therefore, no matter how much you wanted to keep a low profile, you couldn't escape at this time. This is the human heart. Irresistible, irresistible.
Probably, to attract attention.Han Su opened slightly dim eyes and pursed his lips, but there was nothing he could do.
"Is the workshop ready?" Han Xiaochangshi raised his head and smiled relaxedly.
The servant next to him hurriedly replied: "If you return to the adults, they have already been delivered, and the things have been assembled according to the instructions of the adults, and the craftsmen have also explained very well that they must be kept secret."
"Oh?" Han Xiaochangshi, who had a gloomy face just now, regained his energy in an instant, stood up and waved excitedly: "Let's go, look at our baby!"
After finishing speaking, he ran out quickly. When Ze Lan was about to leave, Han Su asked her for some reliable people. Although he didn't think of the current idea at the beginning, the people were right. They were reliable, useful, and Clever, some things know what to do without being told.
Pushing open the door of the storage room, Han Su checked it with glowing eyes, no problem, sure enough!The skillful hands of ancient craftsmen.
"My lord..." The boy who followed after him looked at him in a daze: "Is this some kind of treasure?"
Master Chang Shi turned his head and smiled with a broken smile of "the world belongs to me": "Haha...haha...hahaha...you mean this? This is a magical treasure that can help us cheat countless grains!"
That night, the female officials in the mansion were going to invite Taoist priests.
☆、No more money?VIP?
The floods in Shunhe and Jiazhou haven't been reported for two months, and now it's nearly a month, the porridge sheds of His Highness Lin Lian have been set up in Jiazhou, and dozens of tents have been gathered outside the city to temporarily house orphans. .However, the imperial court that was informed of the emergency at eight hundred miles did not have a charter, and the entire palace was constantly arguing about some intricate interests. Whether the official is guilty or not is another matter, and it is another matter to suggest that the emperor convict himself. In the end, the most important thing to decide is how much should be taken by the treasury and the internal treasury.
Dazhao has three dynasties now, and the current one is the fourth, and he has just ascended the throne.When Taizu proclaimed himself emperor, the world was not completely peaceful. It was not until the fourth year of Taizong that the world was stable.In order to stabilize the hearts of the people, Emperor Taizong not only exempted the land tax for several years, but also greatly encouraged the reclamation of wasteland to make the people rich.
Now that the people are rich, but as the royal treasury, due to a large number of inversions, there is a situation where the king is not as good as the minister.The treasury in the hands of the household department cannot be claimed by the king alone. Unlike the military attache group supported by the internal treasury, the treasury related to the salaries of the civil servant group obviously will not be in a deficit because of the relief of the victims.Is it the loose policies of the previous two dynasties that led to the current food shortage situation? On the other hand, these civil servants who are full of moral articles on weekdays will not be righteous enough to harm themselves and help refugees. Of course, the words are still very high-sounding: The national treasury is related to the stability of our dynasty. If we don't care about the consequences to help the victims at this time, if something happens in the future, it will be too late to regret.
In the end, the result of the court discussion was to increase taxes, which is really ironic.
Even though he knew that the civil official group was just a trick of procrastination, he couldn't care less now, mobilized the money and food that could be mobilized, and directly entrusted various matters to Princess Lin Lu in Jiazhou Mansion.After all, at this moment, there is no extra money and food for embezzlement.
"When Emperor Taizu ruled the world, in order for the people to enjoy stability earlier, he accepted the trust of the former court's civil servant group." Princess Lin Lu folded the secret letter and said seriously: "That's why there is a royal treasury. The situation of supporting military officials and the state treasury supporting civil servants, not to mention the fact that the civil servants have controlled the treasury for so many years and did not know how much profit they made from it, are they even abandoning their own Confucianism and Taoism now? It is really disappointing that the civil servants have long It's rotten from the bottom up, even if Brother Huang privately selects talents to supplement it, it's still not enough to cure this festering, only by uprooting can the hidden danger be eliminated."
"Forget it, the emperor's brother and the second sister have to worry about these things." Lin Lu raised the corners of his mouth slightly: "I'm more curious, if we still entrust this matter to our mysterious little Chang Shi, whether he can still bring us a lot of money." Surprise me?"
"Ah Choo!" Han Xiaochangshi, who was missed by someone, rubbed his nose, and looked at the female officer Zelan who appeared in front of him again: "Did I hear correctly just now? You said the princess doesn't want money this time?"
Officer Zelan nodded, and said the words that Han Xiaochang Shi omitted expressionlessly: "This time is important."
Forced to face the reality, Han Xiaochangshi dryly made the last resistance: "Knowing that the princess is unwell, and she is going to Jiazhou Mansion on the way to Shengjing to recuperate, but now she still puts this burden on Her Highness. Isn’t it too inappropriate? If His Highness insists on resigning on the grounds of his health, the Holy One can send other His Highnesses to go there…”
"It is precisely because His Highness is in Jiazhou Mansion that His Majesty can entrust this matter to His Majesty. If other His Highnesses are sent there, there will be objections from court officials. Doesn't this just show His Majesty's distrust of officials? ?Even if His Highness takes over the affairs of Jiazhou Mansion, there will still be patrol censors to come to assist, so His Highness said, we have to rely on Lord Changshi."
Now that we have talked about this, it is absolutely impossible not to accept it. We can't let the sickly princess preside over the overall situation, can we?What's more, the indifferent Highness told him to rely on himself, and the simple little Chang Shi blushed and fled to pack up his things. Speaking of which, this was the first time he went out after entering the Princess Mansion.
From the Imperial Capital to Jiazhou Prefecture, there was almost no rest along the way, and it took ten days to arrive.Although his whole body was sore, Han Su, who took a shower and changed his clothes, went to see Her Royal Highness first.
Princess Lin Filter doesn't like luxury, and now in Jiazhou Mansion, everything is kept simple.Now receiving Han Xiaochangshi is even more casual than in the Princess Mansion. Due to physical reasons, this His Highness leaned on the couch with a thick blanket covering his body, his hair was casually pulled up behind him, and his hands were Holding a teacup as usual.
Dazhao folk customs are open, there is neither a screen to cover it, nor a gauze curtain to cover the bed, the maid placed a stool in front of the princess' bed, and asked Han Xiaochangshi to sit down. Compared with visiting the princess, it was more like visiting a friend.It has to be said that this is a very comfortable rule.
After briefly explaining what the princess was ordered to do, as well as the current situation in Jiazhou Prefecture, the conversation gradually turned to some trivial matters.Looking at the weak princess, Han Xiaochangshi couldn't help asking what he had been wondering for a long time: "I heard that His Highness is often unwell, what kind of disease does His Highness have?"
"Insufficiency." Princess Lin Filter replied with a chuckle, and it was as concise as ever.
"Huh? This kind of disease from birth is generally difficult to cure." Han Xiaochangshi looked worried, "We can only rely on recuperation."
"No." Lin Li took a sip of tea, "It's not from birth, it's an acquired deficiency."
Han Xiaochangshi was stunned, what is this?Have you only heard of congenital insufficiency? "The little minister has little knowledge..."
"That is to say, my illness started suddenly when I was six years old. After several years of consultation by the imperial physician, I was still helpless. In the end, it was due to my acquired insufficiency."
Han Xiaochangshi nodded: "Your Highness is too picky eater, you should eat more meat."
It was so easy to believe it!Also give a reasonable explanation!Ms. Zelan looked at her own princess who was seriously lying, and Mr. Chang Shi, who was also being deceived seriously. She admired this kind of dialogue that surpassed ordinary people's understanding.At the same time, there is a complex pleasure in my heart that is different from the previous sympathy. It turns out that Master Changshi is a person who can bring everyone happiness.
☆、Do not ask for meritorious service, but for demerits
In view of Princess Lin Lu's physical condition and Han Su's long-distance fatigue, the conversation did not take long to end.Han Xiaochangshi, who got up to leave, couldn't help but ask Her Royal Highness a question after thinking for a long time: "Your Highness said that the full authority is entrusted to the minister, does it mean that all things can be arranged by the minister?"
Princess Lin Filter, who was suddenly asked, was stunned for a moment, and then replied: "It is all, and Master Changshi has full power to deal with it."
"Even if the minister will do something inappropriate?"
"If Master Chang Shi thinks it is necessary, then Lin Le will not intervene." The elegant Princess Lin Le explained indifferently: "There is no doubt about employing people, Master Chang Shi doesn't have to worry too much, just do it according to your own ideas. Now, as long as the result is good, the process is not important."
Han Xiaochangshi, who seemed to have made some major decision, bit his lip slightly, saluted, turned and left.
"Your Highness." Lady Zelan looked worriedly at Han Xiaochang's leaving back, "Is it all right?"
Princess Lin Lian, holding a teacup in her hand, chuckled: "Extraordinary people do extraordinary things. I am looking forward to Master Changshi's next actions. Besides, isn't Master Changshi's expression of 'I want to cause trouble' just now very cute?" ? How can I refuse this?"
And Han Xiaochangshi, who looked cautious, was stepping out of His Royal Highness Lin Lu's temporary residence at the moment, followed by Lin Lu's confidant Xiaoxiao. Delegating to him is a signal of full support, and in this case, Han Su naturally does not have to be polite.
If it is said that what Han Su did in the Imperial Capital was out of sympathy for the victims and the kindness that everyone should have by contributing his own strength, but now, Han Su who has rushed all the way from the Imperial Capital to Jiazhou Prefecture There is only anger in my heart.Whether it is the disaster victims outside the city or the destroyed villages along the way, personal experience is always stronger than personal imagination in a stable and prosperous place. However, the person who should be responsible for all this has not taken any measures or even reported it!
Han Su breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Where is the inspector censor sent by the imperial court?"
Princess Lin Lu received the decree three days after the court meeting, so it stands to reason that the inspector censor should have received the appointment earlier than Princess Lin Lu, and Han Su received the order from His Highness Lin Lu again. Once, so, when acting at this moment, we must take into account the patrol censor who came to assist.
"Returning to my lord, Zhou Fengzhou Yushi lord has been moving slowly all the way, and has just arrived at Dujiangyi in Jiazhou Prefecture. According to that lord's speed, it will probably arrive the day after tomorrow."
Han Su was stunned, she never expected to get such an answer, when is it now?The so-called inspector censor actually still has the leisure to walk all the way slowly and comfortably?
Han Xiaochangshi sneered, just in time, since you are not in a hurry, then don't blame me, the temporary manager, for overstepping my post.Han Xiao Changshi, who had a stern face just now, is now wearing a warm smile, which makes the little school around him look nervous. The expression of Mr. Chang Shi now looks like the expression of His Royal Highness when the princess has a problem: "Pass the order, Jiazhou Prefecture Yin Yigan and others ransacked his home and went to prison."
The little principal was terrified: "My lord, ransacking the house without a crime is a violation of the Jokhang law."
Han Xiaochang Shi said lightly: "So we have to entrust the Dianjun in the mansion to search for evidence. You have to instruct Mr. Dianjun not to let go of any suspicious things later."
The little principal had a bitter expression on his face: "If there is no criminal evidence, my lord will bear all the responsibilities. Even if the criminal evidence is found, I am afraid that my lord will be impeached by the court ministers."
Han Xiaochangshi sneered: "'Three years to clear the magistrate, one hundred thousand snowflake silver.' Don't be afraid that you won't find any criminal evidence, but I'm afraid that there are too many criminal evidences, so it's hard to sort them out. You just go ahead and do it..." After finishing speaking, he laughed at himself Said: "I'm not afraid that the courtiers won't impeach, but I'm afraid that they won't do it well."
The little principal looked puzzled, but this was not something he should interrupt after all, he clasped his fists together and saluted, then turned around and went to deliver the order.
Han Su stared blankly at the desolate and chaotic Jiazhou Mansion Street. It was a great achievement to handle this incident well. If she didn't make some mistakes to make up for the merits and demerits, wouldn't she be able to get promoted all the way up?High-ranking officials, famous ministers, young upstarts are not what I want to live in fear every day, nesting in the blessed land of Langhuan to save retirement salary is the kingly way.
"Huh..." Han Xiaochangshi, who took a deep breath, showed an evil smile. The house raid is still a small way. If you want to make trouble, make it bigger. Don't think about the gold and silver court treasury that was copied. Xiaochangshi has a good plan in his heart. He waved his hand and called the servant boy beside him, and gave a lot of orders in a mutter.
The personal guards of the Princess Mansion acted resolutely and ransacked the mansions of the major officials in Jiazhou Mansion that night. Now that Han Xiaochangshi is in charge, he will naturally report to him if he has nothing to do.
However, although the Jiazhou governor who was a little stunned by the raid was caught off guard, he still sent his confidants to the imperial capital to ask for help. After running to the death of two thousand-mile horses, he arrived in the imperial capital within two days. Suddenly the frying pan exploded.As the saying goes, "Punishment does not go up to scholar-officials", although this is certainly not the case, but respecting literati is still the mainstream today, and now some people have moved court officials without evidence?Naturally, the civil service group reacted fiercely.
However, the emperor, who was struggling to communicate with the civil official group more than ten days ago, naturally ignored it. Now he is also imitating the practice of the civil official at the time, and practiced Tai Chi steadily. The Jokhang court started a new round of wrangling.It's just that now that the two sides have changed their positions, the civil servants were so angry that they jumped up and down. Emperor Zhao was now in a good mood, playing a game of cat and mouse.
At the same time, Princess Xiangcheng of Shan'anfang also received a letter signed by Princess Lin Leu's mansion. The alluring princess smiled with great interest: "I didn't expect that a pure and innocent little girl would be so cute on weekdays." Once Chang Shi made a move, it turned out to be a major event to bring down the imperial capital, and it is true that people cannot be judged by appearances."
Because of lack of money, King Wei, who was eating and drinking at the Princess's Mansion in Xiangcheng, craned his neck when he heard the words: "A letter from Youyue?"
"No." Princess Xiangcheng raised the letter in her hand, and her smile became brighter: "The one who caused the trouble in the imperial capital."
"Little Chief Shi Han Su." Wei Wang raised his eyebrows slightly, "What's the matter with him?"
"Brother~" Princess Xiangcheng suddenly winked at King Wei in a sweet voice: "After so many days of food for nothing, shouldn't it be time to earn some money?"
Wei Wang felt goosebumps all over his body, his elder sister knew that this appearance is definitely not a good thing, Wei Wang was dying: "Well, the second sister can introduce an errand for 1000 taels of silver a day."
Princess Xiangcheng smiled coquettishly: "Border guards and prostitutes should be worth the price."
King Wei looked terrified: "Sister Huang, don't lie to others. I heard that their income is very low."
Princess Xiangcheng's smile became even more seductive: "After all, it is a royal status, so the price is naturally different."
King Wei knelt down next to Princess Xiangcheng, pinched his shoulders and beat his legs, with a miserable look on his face: "Second sister, I have something to do, but I obeyed my orders. We have been close since childhood, but it is good to not just let the younger brother drink soup."
Princess Xiangcheng narrowed her eyes in enjoyment: "Don't worry, Xiao Changshi gave you a good thing. If you do well, at least you won't have to worry about eating and drinking in the future."
☆, Luotuo long history a crazy life
No matter how dynasties change, only the aristocratic family will survive.
Before the previous dynasty, "the upper class had no poor families, and the lower class had no noble families", which fully demonstrated the strength of the family. It is not unheard of for them to unite and force the emperor to abdicate.
Since the imperial examination was implemented in the previous dynasty, it broke the monopoly of courtiers by the aristocratic family, and concentrated military power in the royal family. It can be regarded as another suppression of the threat to the aristocratic family. "Yu Su", it can be seen that only the convenience of policies cannot change the fact that most of the courtiers are still descendants of aristocratic families.
After all, for people who can't even eat, reading is simply a distant dream.
Back then, Han Su also changed his method and made a lot of novel things to make money, but he also read a lot less books than many Dazhao literati, relying on the capital of his previous life, and the only ones he read were strokes by himself. It was copied and wanted to buy a printed book. Han Su, who couldn't eat meat, might have to give up the food in his mouth.
It can be seen how expensive it is to be a literati in Dazhao.
It can also be seen that the civil official group in the Jokhang Dynasty is nothing more than a collection of powerful interest groups.
But now, a small member of the interest group, Zhou Fengzhou Yushi who had just arrived in Jiazhou Mansion from Dujiangyi, jumped upright.
According to his original schedule, when he arrived at Jiazhou Mansion at this moment, he should have received a grand reception from Jiazhou Governor Yin and other officials. After the confidant, even after the flood, the censor, who still maintained his calm and celebrity demeanor, no longer had the so-called cultivation of everyone at this moment, and rushed to Han Xiaochangshi's temporary residence.
And after receiving the notification, Han Xiaochangshi, who didn't even have time to say "please", was smiling at the lord Yushi who rushed straight to his study regardless of etiquette, and Shi Shiran gave an official salute.
The other party is a senior official of the third rank, and the junior long history of the fourth rank is a veritable lower official.
At this time, Zhou Feng didn't have the heart to compare with the other party's energy-raising skills, and cursed in his heart: "You crazy life, bah! Where did you come from, a poor boy! Let me cause trouble for you. If it wasn't for the people from the princess mansion, you would have given it to... …"some type of.
He was so angry that he couldn't pull out a smile after adjusting his face for a long time. Seeing that the other party didn't understand the overall situation, he was expected to be an insignificant person, so he simply said with a stiff expression: "I heard that Han Changshi copied the Jiazhou government. The family of a group of senior officials, I don’t know which law they violated, and they bothered His Highness Lin Li to do such a big job.”
Han Su was originally impatient with his previous behavior, but seeing his tone now, he actually shielded those people and dragged Princess Lin Li into the water, and his heart was even more disgusting.
He smiled immediately and said: "His Royal Highness is worried about the victims of the disaster. As the chief of the Princess's residence, I wish I could share the worries for His Royal Highness, so I took on the errand of disaster relief. Such trivial matters are up to the subordinates themselves. I have to trouble Mr. Zhou to take a look at what crimes people have committed.”
After speaking, he handed over a thick stack of paper with both hands, and there were many account books beside it.
At the beginning when she heard that the censor was going to arrive in Jiazhou Mansion in two days, she naturally made sufficient preparations. After the guards of the Princess Mansion copied the incriminating evidence, Han Su sorted it out as soon as possible. What she wanted was to stop the censor My lord's mouth, otherwise, I don't know how many problems there will be in the future. Now there are two major events, one is to resettle the victims, and the other is to raise food to stabilize prices.After receiving the supplies allocated by the imperial court from Princess Liao, Han Xiaochangshi had the urge to rush to the imperial capital and smash the things in his hands on the faces of the courtiers of Dazhao. At the beginning, she, Han Su, used the assets of the princess mansion to raise Wanshi food and several Thousands of taels of silver, but the Jokhang court only allocated 10 taels of silver to the disaster relief princess Lin Lao to complete the work, and there was not even a grain of grain. With the current grain price, Han Su doubted how much grain the 10 taels could buy.
For the rest, the internal treasury has to pay for it. Of course, the civil service group has given their usual method: they can raise funds from local rich households.
The so-called scholars, farmers, businessmen, and businessmen are cheap, so naturally they dare not disobey their parents and officials. , if it is forced, it is too ugly, not to mention, from Han Su's point of view, the merchant's money is also earned by taking risks, why should others pay for nothing?
Needless to say, the thoughts of the civil official group, if you want to say who are the big households hoarding food at the moment, aren't they just those famous families?If the state treasury allocates food at this moment, it will be flooded at the Dragon King Temple, and the civil society will naturally not do such things that harm their own interests.
Zhou Feng took the case file and looked at it, his face turned dark again, and he scolded these idiots in Jiazhou Mansion for not being too secretive.
This is a great wrong to the officials of Jiangzhou Prefecture. After all, who would be so cautious after covering the sky with one hand for a long time?What's more, no one thought that someone would take the risk of antagonizing the entire civil servant group and ransack the homes of the court officials for no reason.
Looking at it now, with all the incriminating evidence, it is a waste of time to argue about the innocence of ransacking the house. Right now, it is better to bring this matter back first, and then use it when there is a chance.
At that moment, Zhou Yushi with a livid face gritted his teeth and said: "The Holy Majesty appointed this official Yushi to investigate the dereliction of duty in the Jiazhou government. I had troubled Han Changshi to do it for me before. Now that my official has arrived, this matter will be settled." Leave it to me, since Han Yushi is responsible for disaster relief, so there is no need to worry about it."
Of course Han Su knew what the opponent was planning.
To put it bluntly, the Civil Service Group is a body of comprehensive interests, and what is involved in it is the word exchange.A certain interest group turned a blind eye to the other party's crimes in exchange for the appointment of someone on its own side, or made some concessions to allow some of its own policies to be implemented. The reason is helpless. After all, Emperor Zhao's policy is for the country and the royal family. Fundamentally, it is to harm the interests of the other party and benefit the country. This is also the reason why the two sides cannot stand together.
In the three dynasties of the Dazhao Dynasty, the courtiers of the previous dynasty have actually changed more than once. However, the practice left behind is the biggest cancer. At first, the entire civil servant group was united in fear that Emperor Zhao would be replaced by his own people. Now it has been a long time, but it has become an interest Tangled body.
Even though Prime Minister Lu Boding came from a poor family and is quite famous, he still has to make some concessions in this interest group: to turn a blind eye to official corruption and dereliction of duty in exchange for the implementation of good policies, and to place contacts in important positions in the aristocratic family , In exchange for poor people being selected fairly.
This has to explain the sadness of being a wise man and a courtier of Dazhao. Even though he can restrain himself and show his ambition, if he can't satisfy the interests of the majority, everything will be in vain.
Just as Wang Anshi was a virtuous man, but he harmed the interests of the officials below, and the officials did the opposite, which made the reform fail.Although Shang Yang was tough and successful, he still couldn't escape the end of being torn apart by the car in the end.
This is another headache for Emperor Zhao: Even if he chooses a good minister, he cannot use it for himself because of the system.
Now that the accumulated evils are deep, even if Emperor Zhao uses his reputation as a tyrant and cruel to attack the civil servants by force, it is unrealistic.Not to mention that he came to the throne not long ago and his popularity is not enough, how can the aristocratic family be a soft persimmon for others to pinch?I'm afraid that the last few splendid articles will make Emperor Zhao's infamy last forever.Literati have absolute control over public opinion.
Han Su thought about it with a smile, and broke Zhou Feng's fantasy: "This is your lord's internal affairs, and it's not easy for me to intervene, but before my lord came here, there was no one for me to report, and I have recorded all the crimes in a copy of my lord, my lord. I hope you will learn from me.”
Zhou Feng's heart tightened, and he didn't care to hide it: "Is it possible for Han Changshi to be the head of the princess's mansion for a lifetime? If you have more sense, you will be an official in the court in the future."
Han Su smiled bluntly: "What did your lord say, the lower officials have no ambitions, people have no talents, and really have no plans to enter the court as an official. This long history, it doesn't matter whether you do it or not. Get a With a salary, I would like to die from now on."
"you!"
Although Han Su meant to be sarcastic and said what was in his heart, Zhou Feng couldn't hold back his face when he heard it. He threw up his sleeves and left angrily.
Han Su flicked his cuffs, his eyes full of coldness.
☆, the merchant is also a good name
Now that Zhou Feng is in a hurry to clean up the mess of the former Yin of Jiazhou Prefecture and others, naturally he has no time to take care of the affairs of Jiazhou Prefecture, Han Xiaochangshi is now free from restraints, and he is happy and relaxed.
But she also knew in her heart that the whole world is probably staring at the Jiazhou Mansion. It is natural for Emperor Zhao to pay attention, and Sima Zhao's concern for the civil servants group is the heart of Sima Zhao. She can handle it well by herself, otherwise I am afraid that after returning to Beijing It's not all about impeachment.
To be honest, Han Xiaochangshi really didn't worry about this aspect.Ever since Fan Zhongyan and Fan Xianggong proposed using work as a substitute for relief, disaster relief is no longer simply giving food and money. Although the Dazhao court has thrown a lot of mess over here, firstly, she ransacked her home and got a lot of money. The princess also has plans, so Han Xiaochangshi put 1 hearts on those villains who were waiting to see the joke.
On her side, she knows her own affairs, but others are worried.
If you say who you are most worried about, it is naturally the wealthy businessmen of Jiazhou Prefecture. Every time this kind of disaster year, it is when you lose your money. Ordinarily, as usual, the officials in charge have already started to invite yourself and others to have a grand banquet. But since Han Xiaochangshi took over, there has been no news at all.
The wealthy merchants in Jiazhou Prefecture are very worried. As the saying goes, a dog that bites does not bark. This is definitely not scolding the imperial envoy, but after a little bit of reassurance, suddenly the whole city ransacked their homes.
The wealthy households in Jiazhou Prefecture are all complaining about it. Is this counting as an example to others?Or knock the mountain to shake the tiger?Since stretching out the head and retracting the head is still a stab, it is really painful enough to be so gentle and anxious. The wealthy businessmen in Jiazhou prefecture discussed that the person who knows the current affairs is a hero, so he should take the initiative and see what happens.
The wealthy businessmen in Jiazhou prefecture tearfully handed over their posts, saying that they don’t want to play like this, but they have to take the initiative themselves if we are asked to pay, isn’t that cheap.
When Han Xiaochangshi received the post, he was stunned for a long time, and the servant next to him was very discerning, and reminded him: "I'm afraid this is to save money and avoid disasters. It is probably beneficial for adults to come here. They don't want to stay out of the matter, but they just want to see you." Raise your hands high."
As expected, he came from the Princess Mansion. I have to say that the clever boy is very accurate in seeing things. In the past years, when he met greedy guys, there were not a few people who took advantage of this opportunity to search for money, so the wealthy businessmen also understood, and took the initiative to feed the above, you Don't overdo it either.
Han Xiaochangshi rubbed his chin, well, although these people are useful in the first place, but the delivery is different, Han Xiaochangshi said with a smile: "Go back to them, I will definitely come to the banquet on time."
At the second quarter of Xu time, Han Xiaochangshi arrived at the Fuxiang Building in Jiazhou Mansion on time. The rich merchants of Jiazhou Mansion made extraordinary moves. It is said that a meal on the first floor of Jiazhou Mansion costs at least ten taels of silver. He is happy when he mentions delicious food Han Xiaochangshi rolled his eyes with a smile, and his expression became brighter.
The wealthy businessmen in Jiazhou Prefecture secretly raised their eyes, and saw that it was very good and there was something to be said for it.
Immediately, both the host and the guest walked in surrounded by joyful faces.
After drinking for three rounds, the shopkeeper of Fuxiang Building, the shopkeeper Kang, spoke first: "Jiazhou Prefecture is in such a catastrophe, thanks to your compassion for the people, even though we are merchants, we are also moved by your integrity. After much deliberation, I can only help you with the yellow and white vulgar objects, and I hope that my lord will understand my sincerity, no wonder such vulgar objects have stained your eyes." After speaking, he handed over a beautiful box from the side.
If he didn't speak up, Han Xiaochangshi almost spit out what he ate just now, shaking his goosebumps. Han Xiaochangshi thought he couldn't stand this kind of officialdom art, so when he put his chopsticks down, he just ate it. Come on your own, or you might have some nasty words later.
He waved his hand to tell the boy to accept the box, and the people below really felt relieved.
"What did shopkeeper Kang say? To be honest, what I am most worried about now is money and food. I believe you all understand that this disaster relief basically depends on your support. However, since you have expressed your intentions, although you cannot be exempted from responsibility, this official It’s not good to teach you to lose too much.”
Hearing this, you rich businessmen, you are a good man.This person is very happy, and he is not like those civil servants in the past, who obviously wanted more money, but had to wait for someone to hold it by themselves, so as not to tarnish the other party's reputation, that's all, and the words were even more meandering, tiring. A half-dead man, how can he be so forthright as this adult, taking money and still doing things.
Everyone is happier now, so hurry up and drink two more glasses.
Han Xiaochangshi saw it, well, it was almost done, and continued: "It's the so-called paying for things. I didn't invite you to come here before. Even if I think about it, I can't always let people like you suffer. I think about it." After a long time, I finally figured out a way."
When the servants heard this, they quickly filled up the wine: "My lord, please tell me."
"Yes, Your Highness."
"And everything went smoothly during the execution. Not only did the people of Dijing not find anything wrong, but they were very happy?"
"Yes……"
Princess Lin Liu breathed a sigh of relief, took out a small note in a certain book, and suddenly read: "The cold cicada is miserable, it is late to the Changting Pavilion, and the shower has just stopped. The tents in the capital have nothing to drink, Nostalgia, Lanzhou, etc. The boat urged. Holding hands and looking at the tearful eyes, I was speechless and choked. Reading to go, thousands of miles of smoke and waves, the evening mist is heavy and the sky is wide. Passionate since ancient times hurts parting, and it is so desolate in the Qingqiu Festival! Where is the drunkenness today? Yangliuan, Xiao The wind and the moon. This year, it should be a good time for a good time. Even if there are thousands of styles, who can I tell?"
"What does Zelan think?"
"Even though I have just mastered pen and ink, I still think it is a good word."
"This is an examination question for the present subject, and the one just now was written by Mr. Chang Shi in our house."
Lady Zelan was slightly surprised, but she was used to not showing it on her face, so she kept silent and continued to listen to what the princess said.
"Using the words of the second sister, in terms of poetry alone, I am afraid that it is more than even the number one scholar in this subject."
"Then..." Lin Li picked up the small letter in one hand, "With such talent," holding up the supply list with the other hand, "With such talent, if it wasn't for the fact that the second sister happened to be interested in forcing her into the palace, and However, this palace happens to have no one to send, entrusting this matter to him, who would know the talents of this Lord Chang Shi. I am very curious, what is the reason why you don't want to be an official in the court?"
Lady Zelan pondered slightly, and said hesitantly: "Looking at the blessed land of Langhuan built by Lord Changshi in the mansion, it seems that he prefers to live in seclusion, so he doesn't want to touch vulgar things."
Lin Filter chuckled lightly: "Is there anything more vulgar than our long history in the world? Tell some meaningless and strange little stories, and eat chicken wings with the brush of your own reading. That's all, most hermits are their own. Eat your own seeds, our Lord Chang Shi's house, but there is no hoe or hunting bow."
"What's more, how can a real hermit come to participate in the scientific examination? After the scientific examination, he doesn't want to be an official. There are only two purposes: 1. To deliberately attract the attention of others, so that others think they have discovered their secrets, and then reuse them. 2. There are more important secrets hidden than talent, so I don’t hesitate to sacrifice my own future.”
After hearing about the disaster for so many days, His Royal Highness Lin Li, who has been in a bad mood, showed a funny and happy innocent smile for the first time: "Ze Lan, send someone to investigate Master Han's background... Wait, remember to use your own people. "
"Yes, Your Highness." The female officer Zelan turned away and felt sympathy for the unlucky Lord Chang Shi again in her heart. Why do you always arouse the interest of this Highness?
Unfortunately, very unfortunate.
"Ah... ah... ah..."
"What is this?" Han Xiaochangshi, who was in the study of the Princess Mansion for the first time, raised his head and asked.
"It's a crow." The boy who helped tidy up nodded.
"It's a crow." Hongxiu Tianxiang's maid was even more affirmative.
"Well, I heard that this is very ominous, so be careful." Han Xiaochangshi retracted his head and covered his ears.
"Yes, Master Changshi, it's better to be careful recently." The servant kindly suggested.
"That's right." Hongxiu Tianxiang nodded gently.
"Hey! Wait! Did the three of you hear it? Why am I the only one who is careful?"
"Yes Yes."
The boy and the maid bowed their heads at the same time. If they said the truth: because your Yintang seems to have turned blue recently, which is the most unfortunate of misfortunes, Han Xiaochangshi would probably only retort: You have stayed up too late recently.
It doesn't matter, there is always a chance to prove it.
However, the current Han Xiaochangshi is not in the mood to care about these things. After rolling around like a silkworm chrysalis for several hours on the bed, she still fulfilled her promise to Mrs. Zelan.In the future, no matter how much you want to escape or don't want to know, all kinds of information will come to you everywhere, so Han Su naturally knows what kind of scene after the flood, and such a tragic scene has been processed, Han Su Su couldn't imagine how terrifying the scene was, and how helpless the people were, not to mention the fact that there were still only rudimentary safeguards and rescue measures. Therefore, no matter how much you wanted to keep a low profile, you couldn't escape at this time. This is the human heart. Irresistible, irresistible.
Probably, to attract attention.Han Su opened slightly dim eyes and pursed his lips, but there was nothing he could do.
"Is the workshop ready?" Han Xiaochangshi raised his head and smiled relaxedly.
The servant next to him hurriedly replied: "If you return to the adults, they have already been delivered, and the things have been assembled according to the instructions of the adults, and the craftsmen have also explained very well that they must be kept secret."
"Oh?" Han Xiaochangshi, who had a gloomy face just now, regained his energy in an instant, stood up and waved excitedly: "Let's go, look at our baby!"
After finishing speaking, he ran out quickly. When Ze Lan was about to leave, Han Su asked her for some reliable people. Although he didn't think of the current idea at the beginning, the people were right. They were reliable, useful, and Clever, some things know what to do without being told.
Pushing open the door of the storage room, Han Su checked it with glowing eyes, no problem, sure enough!The skillful hands of ancient craftsmen.
"My lord..." The boy who followed after him looked at him in a daze: "Is this some kind of treasure?"
Master Chang Shi turned his head and smiled with a broken smile of "the world belongs to me": "Haha...haha...hahaha...you mean this? This is a magical treasure that can help us cheat countless grains!"
That night, the female officials in the mansion were going to invite Taoist priests.
☆、No more money?VIP?
The floods in Shunhe and Jiazhou haven't been reported for two months, and now it's nearly a month, the porridge sheds of His Highness Lin Lian have been set up in Jiazhou, and dozens of tents have been gathered outside the city to temporarily house orphans. .However, the imperial court that was informed of the emergency at eight hundred miles did not have a charter, and the entire palace was constantly arguing about some intricate interests. Whether the official is guilty or not is another matter, and it is another matter to suggest that the emperor convict himself. In the end, the most important thing to decide is how much should be taken by the treasury and the internal treasury.
Dazhao has three dynasties now, and the current one is the fourth, and he has just ascended the throne.When Taizu proclaimed himself emperor, the world was not completely peaceful. It was not until the fourth year of Taizong that the world was stable.In order to stabilize the hearts of the people, Emperor Taizong not only exempted the land tax for several years, but also greatly encouraged the reclamation of wasteland to make the people rich.
Now that the people are rich, but as the royal treasury, due to a large number of inversions, there is a situation where the king is not as good as the minister.The treasury in the hands of the household department cannot be claimed by the king alone. Unlike the military attache group supported by the internal treasury, the treasury related to the salaries of the civil servant group obviously will not be in a deficit because of the relief of the victims.Is it the loose policies of the previous two dynasties that led to the current food shortage situation? On the other hand, these civil servants who are full of moral articles on weekdays will not be righteous enough to harm themselves and help refugees. Of course, the words are still very high-sounding: The national treasury is related to the stability of our dynasty. If we don't care about the consequences to help the victims at this time, if something happens in the future, it will be too late to regret.
In the end, the result of the court discussion was to increase taxes, which is really ironic.
Even though he knew that the civil official group was just a trick of procrastination, he couldn't care less now, mobilized the money and food that could be mobilized, and directly entrusted various matters to Princess Lin Lu in Jiazhou Mansion.After all, at this moment, there is no extra money and food for embezzlement.
"When Emperor Taizu ruled the world, in order for the people to enjoy stability earlier, he accepted the trust of the former court's civil servant group." Princess Lin Lu folded the secret letter and said seriously: "That's why there is a royal treasury. The situation of supporting military officials and the state treasury supporting civil servants, not to mention the fact that the civil servants have controlled the treasury for so many years and did not know how much profit they made from it, are they even abandoning their own Confucianism and Taoism now? It is really disappointing that the civil servants have long It's rotten from the bottom up, even if Brother Huang privately selects talents to supplement it, it's still not enough to cure this festering, only by uprooting can the hidden danger be eliminated."
"Forget it, the emperor's brother and the second sister have to worry about these things." Lin Lu raised the corners of his mouth slightly: "I'm more curious, if we still entrust this matter to our mysterious little Chang Shi, whether he can still bring us a lot of money." Surprise me?"
"Ah Choo!" Han Xiaochangshi, who was missed by someone, rubbed his nose, and looked at the female officer Zelan who appeared in front of him again: "Did I hear correctly just now? You said the princess doesn't want money this time?"
Officer Zelan nodded, and said the words that Han Xiaochang Shi omitted expressionlessly: "This time is important."
Forced to face the reality, Han Xiaochangshi dryly made the last resistance: "Knowing that the princess is unwell, and she is going to Jiazhou Mansion on the way to Shengjing to recuperate, but now she still puts this burden on Her Highness. Isn’t it too inappropriate? If His Highness insists on resigning on the grounds of his health, the Holy One can send other His Highnesses to go there…”
"It is precisely because His Highness is in Jiazhou Mansion that His Majesty can entrust this matter to His Majesty. If other His Highnesses are sent there, there will be objections from court officials. Doesn't this just show His Majesty's distrust of officials? ?Even if His Highness takes over the affairs of Jiazhou Mansion, there will still be patrol censors to come to assist, so His Highness said, we have to rely on Lord Changshi."
Now that we have talked about this, it is absolutely impossible not to accept it. We can't let the sickly princess preside over the overall situation, can we?What's more, the indifferent Highness told him to rely on himself, and the simple little Chang Shi blushed and fled to pack up his things. Speaking of which, this was the first time he went out after entering the Princess Mansion.
From the Imperial Capital to Jiazhou Prefecture, there was almost no rest along the way, and it took ten days to arrive.Although his whole body was sore, Han Su, who took a shower and changed his clothes, went to see Her Royal Highness first.
Princess Lin Filter doesn't like luxury, and now in Jiazhou Mansion, everything is kept simple.Now receiving Han Xiaochangshi is even more casual than in the Princess Mansion. Due to physical reasons, this His Highness leaned on the couch with a thick blanket covering his body, his hair was casually pulled up behind him, and his hands were Holding a teacup as usual.
Dazhao folk customs are open, there is neither a screen to cover it, nor a gauze curtain to cover the bed, the maid placed a stool in front of the princess' bed, and asked Han Xiaochangshi to sit down. Compared with visiting the princess, it was more like visiting a friend.It has to be said that this is a very comfortable rule.
After briefly explaining what the princess was ordered to do, as well as the current situation in Jiazhou Prefecture, the conversation gradually turned to some trivial matters.Looking at the weak princess, Han Xiaochangshi couldn't help asking what he had been wondering for a long time: "I heard that His Highness is often unwell, what kind of disease does His Highness have?"
"Insufficiency." Princess Lin Filter replied with a chuckle, and it was as concise as ever.
"Huh? This kind of disease from birth is generally difficult to cure." Han Xiaochangshi looked worried, "We can only rely on recuperation."
"No." Lin Li took a sip of tea, "It's not from birth, it's an acquired deficiency."
Han Xiaochangshi was stunned, what is this?Have you only heard of congenital insufficiency? "The little minister has little knowledge..."
"That is to say, my illness started suddenly when I was six years old. After several years of consultation by the imperial physician, I was still helpless. In the end, it was due to my acquired insufficiency."
Han Xiaochangshi nodded: "Your Highness is too picky eater, you should eat more meat."
It was so easy to believe it!Also give a reasonable explanation!Ms. Zelan looked at her own princess who was seriously lying, and Mr. Chang Shi, who was also being deceived seriously. She admired this kind of dialogue that surpassed ordinary people's understanding.At the same time, there is a complex pleasure in my heart that is different from the previous sympathy. It turns out that Master Changshi is a person who can bring everyone happiness.
☆、Do not ask for meritorious service, but for demerits
In view of Princess Lin Lu's physical condition and Han Su's long-distance fatigue, the conversation did not take long to end.Han Xiaochangshi, who got up to leave, couldn't help but ask Her Royal Highness a question after thinking for a long time: "Your Highness said that the full authority is entrusted to the minister, does it mean that all things can be arranged by the minister?"
Princess Lin Filter, who was suddenly asked, was stunned for a moment, and then replied: "It is all, and Master Changshi has full power to deal with it."
"Even if the minister will do something inappropriate?"
"If Master Chang Shi thinks it is necessary, then Lin Le will not intervene." The elegant Princess Lin Le explained indifferently: "There is no doubt about employing people, Master Chang Shi doesn't have to worry too much, just do it according to your own ideas. Now, as long as the result is good, the process is not important."
Han Xiaochangshi, who seemed to have made some major decision, bit his lip slightly, saluted, turned and left.
"Your Highness." Lady Zelan looked worriedly at Han Xiaochang's leaving back, "Is it all right?"
Princess Lin Lian, holding a teacup in her hand, chuckled: "Extraordinary people do extraordinary things. I am looking forward to Master Changshi's next actions. Besides, isn't Master Changshi's expression of 'I want to cause trouble' just now very cute?" ? How can I refuse this?"
And Han Xiaochangshi, who looked cautious, was stepping out of His Royal Highness Lin Lu's temporary residence at the moment, followed by Lin Lu's confidant Xiaoxiao. Delegating to him is a signal of full support, and in this case, Han Su naturally does not have to be polite.
If it is said that what Han Su did in the Imperial Capital was out of sympathy for the victims and the kindness that everyone should have by contributing his own strength, but now, Han Su who has rushed all the way from the Imperial Capital to Jiazhou Prefecture There is only anger in my heart.Whether it is the disaster victims outside the city or the destroyed villages along the way, personal experience is always stronger than personal imagination in a stable and prosperous place. However, the person who should be responsible for all this has not taken any measures or even reported it!
Han Su breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Where is the inspector censor sent by the imperial court?"
Princess Lin Lu received the decree three days after the court meeting, so it stands to reason that the inspector censor should have received the appointment earlier than Princess Lin Lu, and Han Su received the order from His Highness Lin Lu again. Once, so, when acting at this moment, we must take into account the patrol censor who came to assist.
"Returning to my lord, Zhou Fengzhou Yushi lord has been moving slowly all the way, and has just arrived at Dujiangyi in Jiazhou Prefecture. According to that lord's speed, it will probably arrive the day after tomorrow."
Han Su was stunned, she never expected to get such an answer, when is it now?The so-called inspector censor actually still has the leisure to walk all the way slowly and comfortably?
Han Xiaochangshi sneered, just in time, since you are not in a hurry, then don't blame me, the temporary manager, for overstepping my post.Han Xiao Changshi, who had a stern face just now, is now wearing a warm smile, which makes the little school around him look nervous. The expression of Mr. Chang Shi now looks like the expression of His Royal Highness when the princess has a problem: "Pass the order, Jiazhou Prefecture Yin Yigan and others ransacked his home and went to prison."
The little principal was terrified: "My lord, ransacking the house without a crime is a violation of the Jokhang law."
Han Xiaochang Shi said lightly: "So we have to entrust the Dianjun in the mansion to search for evidence. You have to instruct Mr. Dianjun not to let go of any suspicious things later."
The little principal had a bitter expression on his face: "If there is no criminal evidence, my lord will bear all the responsibilities. Even if the criminal evidence is found, I am afraid that my lord will be impeached by the court ministers."
Han Xiaochangshi sneered: "'Three years to clear the magistrate, one hundred thousand snowflake silver.' Don't be afraid that you won't find any criminal evidence, but I'm afraid that there are too many criminal evidences, so it's hard to sort them out. You just go ahead and do it..." After finishing speaking, he laughed at himself Said: "I'm not afraid that the courtiers won't impeach, but I'm afraid that they won't do it well."
The little principal looked puzzled, but this was not something he should interrupt after all, he clasped his fists together and saluted, then turned around and went to deliver the order.
Han Su stared blankly at the desolate and chaotic Jiazhou Mansion Street. It was a great achievement to handle this incident well. If she didn't make some mistakes to make up for the merits and demerits, wouldn't she be able to get promoted all the way up?High-ranking officials, famous ministers, young upstarts are not what I want to live in fear every day, nesting in the blessed land of Langhuan to save retirement salary is the kingly way.
"Huh..." Han Xiaochangshi, who took a deep breath, showed an evil smile. The house raid is still a small way. If you want to make trouble, make it bigger. Don't think about the gold and silver court treasury that was copied. Xiaochangshi has a good plan in his heart. He waved his hand and called the servant boy beside him, and gave a lot of orders in a mutter.
The personal guards of the Princess Mansion acted resolutely and ransacked the mansions of the major officials in Jiazhou Mansion that night. Now that Han Xiaochangshi is in charge, he will naturally report to him if he has nothing to do.
However, although the Jiazhou governor who was a little stunned by the raid was caught off guard, he still sent his confidants to the imperial capital to ask for help. After running to the death of two thousand-mile horses, he arrived in the imperial capital within two days. Suddenly the frying pan exploded.As the saying goes, "Punishment does not go up to scholar-officials", although this is certainly not the case, but respecting literati is still the mainstream today, and now some people have moved court officials without evidence?Naturally, the civil service group reacted fiercely.
However, the emperor, who was struggling to communicate with the civil official group more than ten days ago, naturally ignored it. Now he is also imitating the practice of the civil official at the time, and practiced Tai Chi steadily. The Jokhang court started a new round of wrangling.It's just that now that the two sides have changed their positions, the civil servants were so angry that they jumped up and down. Emperor Zhao was now in a good mood, playing a game of cat and mouse.
At the same time, Princess Xiangcheng of Shan'anfang also received a letter signed by Princess Lin Leu's mansion. The alluring princess smiled with great interest: "I didn't expect that a pure and innocent little girl would be so cute on weekdays." Once Chang Shi made a move, it turned out to be a major event to bring down the imperial capital, and it is true that people cannot be judged by appearances."
Because of lack of money, King Wei, who was eating and drinking at the Princess's Mansion in Xiangcheng, craned his neck when he heard the words: "A letter from Youyue?"
"No." Princess Xiangcheng raised the letter in her hand, and her smile became brighter: "The one who caused the trouble in the imperial capital."
"Little Chief Shi Han Su." Wei Wang raised his eyebrows slightly, "What's the matter with him?"
"Brother~" Princess Xiangcheng suddenly winked at King Wei in a sweet voice: "After so many days of food for nothing, shouldn't it be time to earn some money?"
Wei Wang felt goosebumps all over his body, his elder sister knew that this appearance is definitely not a good thing, Wei Wang was dying: "Well, the second sister can introduce an errand for 1000 taels of silver a day."
Princess Xiangcheng smiled coquettishly: "Border guards and prostitutes should be worth the price."
King Wei looked terrified: "Sister Huang, don't lie to others. I heard that their income is very low."
Princess Xiangcheng's smile became even more seductive: "After all, it is a royal status, so the price is naturally different."
King Wei knelt down next to Princess Xiangcheng, pinched his shoulders and beat his legs, with a miserable look on his face: "Second sister, I have something to do, but I obeyed my orders. We have been close since childhood, but it is good to not just let the younger brother drink soup."
Princess Xiangcheng narrowed her eyes in enjoyment: "Don't worry, Xiao Changshi gave you a good thing. If you do well, at least you won't have to worry about eating and drinking in the future."
☆, Luotuo long history a crazy life
No matter how dynasties change, only the aristocratic family will survive.
Before the previous dynasty, "the upper class had no poor families, and the lower class had no noble families", which fully demonstrated the strength of the family. It is not unheard of for them to unite and force the emperor to abdicate.
Since the imperial examination was implemented in the previous dynasty, it broke the monopoly of courtiers by the aristocratic family, and concentrated military power in the royal family. It can be regarded as another suppression of the threat to the aristocratic family. "Yu Su", it can be seen that only the convenience of policies cannot change the fact that most of the courtiers are still descendants of aristocratic families.
After all, for people who can't even eat, reading is simply a distant dream.
Back then, Han Su also changed his method and made a lot of novel things to make money, but he also read a lot less books than many Dazhao literati, relying on the capital of his previous life, and the only ones he read were strokes by himself. It was copied and wanted to buy a printed book. Han Su, who couldn't eat meat, might have to give up the food in his mouth.
It can be seen how expensive it is to be a literati in Dazhao.
It can also be seen that the civil official group in the Jokhang Dynasty is nothing more than a collection of powerful interest groups.
But now, a small member of the interest group, Zhou Fengzhou Yushi who had just arrived in Jiazhou Mansion from Dujiangyi, jumped upright.
According to his original schedule, when he arrived at Jiazhou Mansion at this moment, he should have received a grand reception from Jiazhou Governor Yin and other officials. After the confidant, even after the flood, the censor, who still maintained his calm and celebrity demeanor, no longer had the so-called cultivation of everyone at this moment, and rushed to Han Xiaochangshi's temporary residence.
And after receiving the notification, Han Xiaochangshi, who didn't even have time to say "please", was smiling at the lord Yushi who rushed straight to his study regardless of etiquette, and Shi Shiran gave an official salute.
The other party is a senior official of the third rank, and the junior long history of the fourth rank is a veritable lower official.
At this time, Zhou Feng didn't have the heart to compare with the other party's energy-raising skills, and cursed in his heart: "You crazy life, bah! Where did you come from, a poor boy! Let me cause trouble for you. If it wasn't for the people from the princess mansion, you would have given it to... …"some type of.
He was so angry that he couldn't pull out a smile after adjusting his face for a long time. Seeing that the other party didn't understand the overall situation, he was expected to be an insignificant person, so he simply said with a stiff expression: "I heard that Han Changshi copied the Jiazhou government. The family of a group of senior officials, I don’t know which law they violated, and they bothered His Highness Lin Li to do such a big job.”
Han Su was originally impatient with his previous behavior, but seeing his tone now, he actually shielded those people and dragged Princess Lin Li into the water, and his heart was even more disgusting.
He smiled immediately and said: "His Royal Highness is worried about the victims of the disaster. As the chief of the Princess's residence, I wish I could share the worries for His Royal Highness, so I took on the errand of disaster relief. Such trivial matters are up to the subordinates themselves. I have to trouble Mr. Zhou to take a look at what crimes people have committed.”
After speaking, he handed over a thick stack of paper with both hands, and there were many account books beside it.
At the beginning when she heard that the censor was going to arrive in Jiazhou Mansion in two days, she naturally made sufficient preparations. After the guards of the Princess Mansion copied the incriminating evidence, Han Su sorted it out as soon as possible. What she wanted was to stop the censor My lord's mouth, otherwise, I don't know how many problems there will be in the future. Now there are two major events, one is to resettle the victims, and the other is to raise food to stabilize prices.After receiving the supplies allocated by the imperial court from Princess Liao, Han Xiaochangshi had the urge to rush to the imperial capital and smash the things in his hands on the faces of the courtiers of Dazhao. At the beginning, she, Han Su, used the assets of the princess mansion to raise Wanshi food and several Thousands of taels of silver, but the Jokhang court only allocated 10 taels of silver to the disaster relief princess Lin Lao to complete the work, and there was not even a grain of grain. With the current grain price, Han Su doubted how much grain the 10 taels could buy.
For the rest, the internal treasury has to pay for it. Of course, the civil service group has given their usual method: they can raise funds from local rich households.
The so-called scholars, farmers, businessmen, and businessmen are cheap, so naturally they dare not disobey their parents and officials. , if it is forced, it is too ugly, not to mention, from Han Su's point of view, the merchant's money is also earned by taking risks, why should others pay for nothing?
Needless to say, the thoughts of the civil official group, if you want to say who are the big households hoarding food at the moment, aren't they just those famous families?If the state treasury allocates food at this moment, it will be flooded at the Dragon King Temple, and the civil society will naturally not do such things that harm their own interests.
Zhou Feng took the case file and looked at it, his face turned dark again, and he scolded these idiots in Jiazhou Mansion for not being too secretive.
This is a great wrong to the officials of Jiangzhou Prefecture. After all, who would be so cautious after covering the sky with one hand for a long time?What's more, no one thought that someone would take the risk of antagonizing the entire civil servant group and ransack the homes of the court officials for no reason.
Looking at it now, with all the incriminating evidence, it is a waste of time to argue about the innocence of ransacking the house. Right now, it is better to bring this matter back first, and then use it when there is a chance.
At that moment, Zhou Yushi with a livid face gritted his teeth and said: "The Holy Majesty appointed this official Yushi to investigate the dereliction of duty in the Jiazhou government. I had troubled Han Changshi to do it for me before. Now that my official has arrived, this matter will be settled." Leave it to me, since Han Yushi is responsible for disaster relief, so there is no need to worry about it."
Of course Han Su knew what the opponent was planning.
To put it bluntly, the Civil Service Group is a body of comprehensive interests, and what is involved in it is the word exchange.A certain interest group turned a blind eye to the other party's crimes in exchange for the appointment of someone on its own side, or made some concessions to allow some of its own policies to be implemented. The reason is helpless. After all, Emperor Zhao's policy is for the country and the royal family. Fundamentally, it is to harm the interests of the other party and benefit the country. This is also the reason why the two sides cannot stand together.
In the three dynasties of the Dazhao Dynasty, the courtiers of the previous dynasty have actually changed more than once. However, the practice left behind is the biggest cancer. At first, the entire civil servant group was united in fear that Emperor Zhao would be replaced by his own people. Now it has been a long time, but it has become an interest Tangled body.
Even though Prime Minister Lu Boding came from a poor family and is quite famous, he still has to make some concessions in this interest group: to turn a blind eye to official corruption and dereliction of duty in exchange for the implementation of good policies, and to place contacts in important positions in the aristocratic family , In exchange for poor people being selected fairly.
This has to explain the sadness of being a wise man and a courtier of Dazhao. Even though he can restrain himself and show his ambition, if he can't satisfy the interests of the majority, everything will be in vain.
Just as Wang Anshi was a virtuous man, but he harmed the interests of the officials below, and the officials did the opposite, which made the reform fail.Although Shang Yang was tough and successful, he still couldn't escape the end of being torn apart by the car in the end.
This is another headache for Emperor Zhao: Even if he chooses a good minister, he cannot use it for himself because of the system.
Now that the accumulated evils are deep, even if Emperor Zhao uses his reputation as a tyrant and cruel to attack the civil servants by force, it is unrealistic.Not to mention that he came to the throne not long ago and his popularity is not enough, how can the aristocratic family be a soft persimmon for others to pinch?I'm afraid that the last few splendid articles will make Emperor Zhao's infamy last forever.Literati have absolute control over public opinion.
Han Su thought about it with a smile, and broke Zhou Feng's fantasy: "This is your lord's internal affairs, and it's not easy for me to intervene, but before my lord came here, there was no one for me to report, and I have recorded all the crimes in a copy of my lord, my lord. I hope you will learn from me.”
Zhou Feng's heart tightened, and he didn't care to hide it: "Is it possible for Han Changshi to be the head of the princess's mansion for a lifetime? If you have more sense, you will be an official in the court in the future."
Han Su smiled bluntly: "What did your lord say, the lower officials have no ambitions, people have no talents, and really have no plans to enter the court as an official. This long history, it doesn't matter whether you do it or not. Get a With a salary, I would like to die from now on."
"you!"
Although Han Su meant to be sarcastic and said what was in his heart, Zhou Feng couldn't hold back his face when he heard it. He threw up his sleeves and left angrily.
Han Su flicked his cuffs, his eyes full of coldness.
☆, the merchant is also a good name
Now that Zhou Feng is in a hurry to clean up the mess of the former Yin of Jiazhou Prefecture and others, naturally he has no time to take care of the affairs of Jiazhou Prefecture, Han Xiaochangshi is now free from restraints, and he is happy and relaxed.
But she also knew in her heart that the whole world is probably staring at the Jiazhou Mansion. It is natural for Emperor Zhao to pay attention, and Sima Zhao's concern for the civil servants group is the heart of Sima Zhao. She can handle it well by herself, otherwise I am afraid that after returning to Beijing It's not all about impeachment.
To be honest, Han Xiaochangshi really didn't worry about this aspect.Ever since Fan Zhongyan and Fan Xianggong proposed using work as a substitute for relief, disaster relief is no longer simply giving food and money. Although the Dazhao court has thrown a lot of mess over here, firstly, she ransacked her home and got a lot of money. The princess also has plans, so Han Xiaochangshi put 1 hearts on those villains who were waiting to see the joke.
On her side, she knows her own affairs, but others are worried.
If you say who you are most worried about, it is naturally the wealthy businessmen of Jiazhou Prefecture. Every time this kind of disaster year, it is when you lose your money. Ordinarily, as usual, the officials in charge have already started to invite yourself and others to have a grand banquet. But since Han Xiaochangshi took over, there has been no news at all.
The wealthy merchants in Jiazhou Prefecture are very worried. As the saying goes, a dog that bites does not bark. This is definitely not scolding the imperial envoy, but after a little bit of reassurance, suddenly the whole city ransacked their homes.
The wealthy households in Jiazhou Prefecture are all complaining about it. Is this counting as an example to others?Or knock the mountain to shake the tiger?Since stretching out the head and retracting the head is still a stab, it is really painful enough to be so gentle and anxious. The wealthy businessmen in Jiazhou prefecture discussed that the person who knows the current affairs is a hero, so he should take the initiative and see what happens.
The wealthy businessmen in Jiazhou prefecture tearfully handed over their posts, saying that they don’t want to play like this, but they have to take the initiative themselves if we are asked to pay, isn’t that cheap.
When Han Xiaochangshi received the post, he was stunned for a long time, and the servant next to him was very discerning, and reminded him: "I'm afraid this is to save money and avoid disasters. It is probably beneficial for adults to come here. They don't want to stay out of the matter, but they just want to see you." Raise your hands high."
As expected, he came from the Princess Mansion. I have to say that the clever boy is very accurate in seeing things. In the past years, when he met greedy guys, there were not a few people who took advantage of this opportunity to search for money, so the wealthy businessmen also understood, and took the initiative to feed the above, you Don't overdo it either.
Han Xiaochangshi rubbed his chin, well, although these people are useful in the first place, but the delivery is different, Han Xiaochangshi said with a smile: "Go back to them, I will definitely come to the banquet on time."
At the second quarter of Xu time, Han Xiaochangshi arrived at the Fuxiang Building in Jiazhou Mansion on time. The rich merchants of Jiazhou Mansion made extraordinary moves. It is said that a meal on the first floor of Jiazhou Mansion costs at least ten taels of silver. He is happy when he mentions delicious food Han Xiaochangshi rolled his eyes with a smile, and his expression became brighter.
The wealthy businessmen in Jiazhou Prefecture secretly raised their eyes, and saw that it was very good and there was something to be said for it.
Immediately, both the host and the guest walked in surrounded by joyful faces.
After drinking for three rounds, the shopkeeper of Fuxiang Building, the shopkeeper Kang, spoke first: "Jiazhou Prefecture is in such a catastrophe, thanks to your compassion for the people, even though we are merchants, we are also moved by your integrity. After much deliberation, I can only help you with the yellow and white vulgar objects, and I hope that my lord will understand my sincerity, no wonder such vulgar objects have stained your eyes." After speaking, he handed over a beautiful box from the side.
If he didn't speak up, Han Xiaochangshi almost spit out what he ate just now, shaking his goosebumps. Han Xiaochangshi thought he couldn't stand this kind of officialdom art, so when he put his chopsticks down, he just ate it. Come on your own, or you might have some nasty words later.
He waved his hand to tell the boy to accept the box, and the people below really felt relieved.
"What did shopkeeper Kang say? To be honest, what I am most worried about now is money and food. I believe you all understand that this disaster relief basically depends on your support. However, since you have expressed your intentions, although you cannot be exempted from responsibility, this official It’s not good to teach you to lose too much.”
Hearing this, you rich businessmen, you are a good man.This person is very happy, and he is not like those civil servants in the past, who obviously wanted more money, but had to wait for someone to hold it by themselves, so as not to tarnish the other party's reputation, that's all, and the words were even more meandering, tiring. A half-dead man, how can he be so forthright as this adult, taking money and still doing things.
Everyone is happier now, so hurry up and drink two more glasses.
Han Xiaochangshi saw it, well, it was almost done, and continued: "It's the so-called paying for things. I didn't invite you to come here before. Even if I think about it, I can't always let people like you suffer. I think about it." After a long time, I finally figured out a way."
When the servants heard this, they quickly filled up the wine: "My lord, please tell me."
