Great Tang Idyll - Chapter 1216

[Chapter 842 One branch and one leaf]

“Article 3: Men who reach the age of 18 and meet the health standards, up to the age of 25, shall perform military service for two months each year during the period and enjoy military service subsidies, and men between the ages of 26 and 30 who meet the health standards shall perform military service every year. For one month, those who desert military service will cancel all benefits.”

The reader of the newspaper then read the third article, according to the previous situation, he stopped after reading and waited for others to discuss.

At this time, the ministers fell silent, no one said a word, all of them looked at the people who read the newspaper.

“Continue.” Li Longji spoke.

“Article 4: Those who take the imperial examination must accumulate 100 days of compulsory teaching and 200 days of social voluntary labor before participating in the examination. Those who do not have enough time will be disqualified from the examination, and they will not be allowed to take the examination again within five years. Participate in the imperial examination.” After the

fourth article was read, buzzing discussions began to sound from both sides of the steps of Hanyuan Hall, and the ministers whispered.

Wang Yan was very close to Zhang Zhong, and they were both ministers. There was only one person in the middle. Hearing the fourth rule, he couldn’t help but squeezed next to Zhang Zhong and asked, “What a good Zhang Xiaobao and a good Wang Juan, and now I feel that I am not afraid of the sky. Not afraid of the earth, I started to raise my sword at the official, very brave, really brave, Zhang Zhong, you gave birth to a good son.”

Zhang Zhong smiled and nodded lightly to Wang Ye: “Why did Mr. Wang say this? For example, if you are a local official, you need to understand education and people’s livelihood, so what’s wrong with studying first? Or if you are directly managing the economic field, at least you need to understand the goods and needs of the people, right?

Eh? Speaking of the economic aspect, I just remembered that Xiaobao called yesterday evening and said that the new group we formed together might be able to generate profits this year. It is no longer a balance of income and expenditure. After a certain amount of time, it finally starts to flourish.”

Wang Yan was stunned for a moment, and then became even more indignant: “Zhang Zhong, do you think that the affairs of the world’s students can be lured? …”

“About 3 million yuan of profits, it is said that the dividend is first distributed, and then considers selling overseas. In this way, it will be profitable year after year.” Zhang Zhong took his words.

Wang Yan was stunned again, his eyes looking elsewhere.

After taking four deep breaths, he asked Zhang Zhong seriously, “Really?”

“Master Wang, can you read the plan?” Zhang Zhong asked back.

“Trust you once, what did we just say?”

“You can’t lure him.”

“Yes, if there is such a thing, you can’t take advantage of it, and you can’t take money.

This is the righteousness of the country. , is for virtue, Zhang Zhong. Brother Yongcheng, you talk about money with me, it’s too much, can I be moved by money? You talk to me, how can I be unreasonable?

Actually, what you said before I take it for granted, that’s right, that’s right. Students who take the imperial examinations must want to be an official. How can an official be unaware of the suffering of the people? If I tell you, the days are still few. It should add up to five hundred days. The time is too long, or there may be repetitions, it is better to try it first.”

Wang Yan patted Zhang Zhong on the shoulder affectionately, and said righteously.

“I think so too.” Zhang Zhong responded with a smile.

“Yes, yes, it’s not easy to think of a place to go, Brother Yongcheng, do you have free time at night? I heard that the shrimp rake is already edible. Your restaurant has bought a lot. How about you invite me to have a meal?” Wang Han said with a very slanderous look.

“Since it’s time for a treat, at night?” Zhang Zhong agreed.

“Okay, okay, see you in the evening.” Wang Yan nodded happily, and took two steps back to his original position. The person in the middle was ignored by him and regarded as air. That person was… Pei Guangting, Minister of Personnel.

Pei Guangting heard everything, and suddenly found that the person in charge of money really has no resistance to money. Three million yuan, which is not his own income, was bought by Wang Yan. You have a little backbone, okay?

You lose in one round, and you lose so thoroughly.

In his heart, he belied Wang Yan, Pei Guangting thought about it, squeezed into Zhang Zhong’s seat, turned his head and whispered: “Brother Yongcheng, I wonder if the group still needs to increase its shares? I have some spare money in my hand, you You know, if money doesn’t go out and doesn’t flow, it will lose its role in promoting the economy, and I would like to contribute to the economic prosperity of Datang.”

Pei Guangting is ten years older than Zhang Zhong, and his third grandson is four years old. He is old and can make soy sauce. He thinks he wants to think about it for his family.

In fact, it’s not bad to rely on bribes, but there are few officials who offer bribes now, and even if he accepts bribes, he won’t be able to help much. The officials who give bribes have to be cleaned up if they make mistakes.

He doesn’t have to be afraid of the censor’s desk, he doesn’t have to be afraid of the Zhongshuling, and even dares to argue a few words with the emperor, but he is afraid of Xiaobei and the others who also have soy sauce on their heads.

The emperor’s theory explained that he had the confidence, and was caught by Xiaobei and the others on a whim, but no one helped.

So, it’s better to find a serious business and invest a lot in order to get a return. The new group has shares, but not many. Now it seems good if they can increase their investment.

“Brother Liancheng, don’t be in a hurry.” Zhang Zhong comforted Pei Guangting and said, “If you listen to it further, you will know that we will have the benefits of being an official. Otherwise, those who are officials have no money, and those who are in business have money. How can we use psychological politics? How many people can be sanctified?”

Pei Guangting’s eyes lit up, and he asked as if to prove it: “So, even if Lord Wang supported the new group before, the new group would still be profitable?”

“Naturally, But Brother Liancheng will be tired in the future.”

“How do you say it?” Pei Guangting asked again.

“After the hidden salaries were high, Xiaobao and Jujuan demanded that officials must be clean and honest. As the saying goes, with people’s money and people to eliminate disasters, officials have to do things with hidden salaries. My Tang Dynasty follows the speed of development. The faster it is, the more loopholes will appear, and the inspectors at all levels may not be able to catch them, and to catch officials, you also need your department to participate, what should you do?”

At the request of his son, Zhang Zhong began to compromise with the officials, but he also knew that his son’s tactics have never been the kind of me that take one step, you can go further. Take a step forward?

Moreover, these exchanges are beneficial to Datang as a whole, otherwise, there would be no need to exchange interests, but to achieve their goals through other means.

Pei Guangting obviously also understands the tempers of Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan.

It doesn’t matter what they can get in the end, and they shouldn’t covet it, as long as they can benefit from it, or they really make others angry, they may not give them any benefits at all.

So he solemnly promised Zhang Zhong: “Don’t worry, any officials who take money and do nothing during the rapid development of the Tang Dynasty will be caught once they are caught. They will be severely

punished.

.” Zhang Zhong bowed his hands in salute.

“No need. My post.” Pei Guangting returned the salute.

Zhang Zhong eliminated two people, and the rest was simple, including the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Punishment, and the Ministry of War.

The Ministry of War went directly, and the Ministry of War did not dare to have any obstructive behavior or thoughts. Since this was the case, he began to approach Su Yi, the Minister of Rites, and had an exchange with him. It was also a benefit to the Tang Dynasty when it was given to him.

The courtiers in the court have no time to go to where Gu Zhangzhong is going, and with whom to exchange terms, many people are thinking deeply.

“Article 5…”

“Wait.” When the newspaper reader wanted to continue reading, Xiao Song, Minister of War, shouted, very imposing.

Let’s hear it and know that he is from the military.

“Xiao Qing has any objection?” Li Longji asked with his eyes swept over.

The ministers suddenly looked at Zhang Zhong with a look of jokes. Zhang Zhong had already come to Su Yi’s side, and when he saw the Ministry of War standing up, he stopped his movements.

Looking over in amazement.

The scene was awkward for a while.

All the ministers want to see Zhang Zhong’s jokes, let’s see, what did you think would be the least problem?

What do you do now?

Some people went to see Wang Ye again, and Wang Ye wanted to scold people, scolding Xiao Song for betraying Cuckoo, and scolding people who came over.

Damn, what do you see me doing?

Do you expect me to stand up and support Xiao Song?

When will I get my money back?

Don’t you fucking want to watch other people fight?

The question is how much pressure my motherfucker is under, do you know?

I couldn’t earn the money I invested before, and then the family’s benefits from Zhang and Wang’s family were cancelled. Later, there was a grandson to be born, so I could enjoy some benefits, which have been placed on the grandson who has already been born.

It’s easy to do without this benefit. Since the benefit for children, my life has become more and more difficult. The servants in the family look at me, this old man, and I’m about to betray my relatives and leave. Are you also looking for the past to speak in person, instead of standing up?

I remember you, and don’t expect me to give you money in the future.

Wang Yan scolded in his heart and stared back at him.

The scene paused for a moment, Xiao Song seemed to feel that he had given others enough time to think, and said in a deliberately rough voice: “The fourth item before refers to the imperial examinations in the liberal arts, right? What about my martial arts? I strongly demand that no discrimination by the court is allowed. Those of us who practice martial arts will also spend 300 days to be volunteers when they take the martial arts exam in the future.

I’m talking about smearing here. Even if the policy does not stipulate that martial arts practitioners need to be obliged to work, our Ministry of War strictly follows this. If the policy is implemented, unless I am removed, I will be in the position of Shangshu for one day, and those who take the martial arts exam will not try to take advantage of it.”

This time it was replaced by the people who watched the fun just now, and you can die if you don’t flatter you Xiao Song. ?

Before the others could finish scolding, Xiao Song spoke again.

“There is also the issue of military service in Article 3. Let me express my position. Our Ministry of War will strictly require military service personnel and unconditionally complete His Majesty’s training intentions, from strategy, tactics to personal military skills, and train people participating in military service in all aspects. .

Develop them into qualified soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, to the extent that they can fight and win in battle, and strengthen the ideological education of the army, so that all officers and soldiers will not shrink back, not waver, Don’t hesitate. I’m done.”

When the words fell, Xiao Song stepped back and stood back again.

People who want to watch the fun are speechless, Xiao Song, you are a minister, you are embarrassed to stand up and show no restraint?

Are you afraid that Wang Juan is so afraid?

Li Longji suppressed a smile and said with relief: “Very good, Xiao Qing’s consciousness is still very high, with him in the Ministry of War, I can rest assured, yes, Hong’er still lacks a master who teaches martial arts, it is better for Xiao Qing to add one. Let’s take the position of the prince and the grandfather.”

“The minister must live up to his grace.” Xiao Song stood up again to show his loyalty.

The first-rank official is just like this, and the first-rank is also a first-rank.

Some courtiers wanted to stand up and say that although the Crown Prince was a vacant post, he would be paid a stipend, but when he remembered his vacant position, he also remembered that there are a group of little guys who also have vacant positions. The Minister of Punishment, they are the Nine People of the Tang Dynasty.

Oh, the ten inspectors, they have multiple jobs. When convicting and sentencing people, they don’t need to go through any department, they do it directly, usually it depends on their mood.

Therefore, these courtiers who wanted to stand up and speak shut up.

The Minister of Rites, Su Yi, who was also waiting to watch the excitement, put away his thoughts and asked Zhang Zhong with a smile: “Yongcheng is here?”

“Here. There is something about the application and management of audio-visual education. The plan for printing where books are published. Do you have a look?”

Zhang Zhong spoke again, his tone softer than that, which was an expression of confidence.

Su Yi could understand Zhang Zhong’s confidence.

If he had such a son and daughter-in-law, he would be so confident, so he asked, “Is there a lot of content?”

“A lot, I’ll go after the meeting.” Zhang Zhong lowered his posture even more.

“Don’t, I just have something to ask. I went over there and the washing machine in my house leaked water. It wasn’t the kind of leak next to it. It drained water by itself when I didn’t need it. It was washing. The water was gone.” Su Yi didn’t dare to fret about it now. Zhang Zhong, I have to go there in person. As for the leak, is that a problem?

“Alright, it’s probably the seal that went wrong. I’ll have someone go over and have a look later. At the same time, there is a new washing machine that can rotate alternately in both directions, which is better than rotating in one direction. I’d appreciate it if you could help me try it out.” Zhang Zhong said with a smile.

A new two-way washing machine is worth a face, and it is estimated that those who have a rotating bucket will also take it out.

“It’s easy to talk about.” Su Yi smiled happily.

Seeing that things were done, Zhang Zhong went back again.

The secret exchange of interests is so filthy, but as long as it is good when it falls on the common people, it is worth doing. The common people see a lot of it is in front of them and themselves, and they never know how many people there are when their benefits are obtained. what is paid.

Yu Wenrong, who is also the prime minister, had to stand up and speak at this time. His current position is very high, and he is in the same position as the middle school, so he must figure out what Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan are going to do.

Of course, he himself knew that Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan did not obstruct him to become the current official. Although there were minor conflicts, they recognized his ability.

This point made Yu Wenrong sigh that it was not as good. He believed that he couldn’t do it, and he couldn’t do it in the position of Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan, and still didn’t attack his opponent deliberately.

Because if two people want to clean up him, there is no need to seek balance and exchange of interests, but a matter of one sentence.

Maybe people didn’t regard him as an opponent at all, even if his father was a minister of the Ministry of Industry who seemed to be of a lower rank than his own.

Every time I think of them, I feel a majestic atmosphere, unhindered.

They don’t care as long as it doesn’t touch their bottom line, but when they do, you don’t.

When Yu Wenrong became prime minister this year, he always behaved very well.

At this moment, he has to ask clearly on behalf of the ministers.

“Your Majesty, after listening to the four points, my heart is not very clear.”

“Speak.” Li Longji actually did not receive any explanation from Zhang Xiaobao, but he was confident that he understood it thoroughly. It was a tacit understanding. The source of the tacit understanding was usual touch.

Yuwen Rong paused and said, “The first two seem to shake the foundation, and the next two are labor-intensive. I want to know what Xiaobao and Juanjuan think.”

When he spoke, he didn’t call him Zhang Zhong, Obviously they are the closest people, but I have to say what Zhang Jiedu is. It reminds me of Zhang Zhong’s original appearance during the imperial examination, which made Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan very embarrassed.

Many people standing on both sides of the steps nodded.

When Li Longji heard the first two, he had already considered this issue, and when he heard the words, he said, “I tell you, the first two are to bring out the latent contradictions, and there should be a policy with the same meaning behind, which will lead to Come out and solve it together, and then you can get a few years of stability.

The third and fourth articles, in fact, do not require the common people to become soldiers, and it is not impossible without students to become teachers and volunteers. This involves the field of psychology, 18 years old Every year I go to the army, and I am under militarized management, which can help the people develop a rigorous and strong habit of thinking and acting, which has a great effect on the stability of the country.

Students go to teach and volunteer, one thing you need to know, people Only when they pay for something, will they become attached to it. Let them teach, and they will have contact with the child. One day he will be an official, and the interests of the child will be involved in his actions. I believe he will stand The probability of being on the child’s side will be very high.

Similarly, volunteers still need to understand first, or understand and feel when they are doing it. Many students are actually unqualified in life. If you don’t believe it, the imperial examination this fall At that time, you asked each of them to make a dish, and see how many people can make it?

This is part of life, how do people who don’t understand life manage? I like people from Jianjia Academy, because they can cook, They all mend their own clothes, so they understand people’s livelihood better. Zishou, do you know how?”

Li Longji said, and suddenly asked Zhang Jiuling, whose name is Zishou.

Zhang Jiuling smiled indifferently: “Your Majesty would like to try Shaanchen’s plum-chop meat, which is produced in Chen’s hometown. I’m just afraid that Your Majesty is used to Xiaobao’s dishes, and it doesn’t taste good to me.”

“Ha, UU reading www.sonicmtl.com I believe that Qing’s cooking is better than Xiaobao’s. The dishes of his hometown have the taste of his own hometown.” Li Longji said meaningfully.

Zhang Jiuling shook his head slightly: “I don’t dare to be a minister, Xiaobao’s hometown is the Tang Dynasty, and his restaurant’s cooking is divided into different cuisines, even wild vegetables he can make a unique taste, how can this minister compare? Everything you raise can be eaten, and Xiaobao’s capable ministers can’t do it.”

“Qing, do you understand?” Li Longji turned his head and asked Yu Wenrong.

Yu Wenrong pondered again, then raised his head, and said, “I understand for now, but I fear that 300 days will be spent in other areas, which will be detrimental to knowledge.

” Standing back, he said directly: “What is knowledge? How about the University of the Mean? The Book of Songs is elegant? What is waste? No matter what you do, no matter how small it looks, you can learn something from it. You should know that when the grass dries up in spring, it will be a disaster. , Qiu Yimuhua is also different. This grass and wood are also full of love.”

Yu Wenrong heard Zhang Jiuling’s words, and after thinking about it, he clenched his fists as a salute and nodded: “I would like to be taught.”

Li Longji happily Laughing twice, he told the newspaper reader, “Continue.”
