A great man of the Northern Song Dynasty

Chapter 1,603 Choose 1 from 2

How can the world be stable?

When the people are full, the world will be stable.

This is the consensus of many people.

"This is a big fallacy!"

Fu Bi said angrily: "If we just ignore it, how can we do it?"

Bao Zheng nodded, "I know that too, but what about redundant officials? How many redundant officials were created because of this?"

Fu Bi was speechless.

The redundant officials in the Song Dynasty had become a big problem, causing headaches for the monarchs and ministers.

How to deal with these officials now? It is one thing to stabilize people's hearts, but we cannot redundant officials!

"Let him do the talking!"

Zhao Shu came in, and the ministers and ministers saluted.

"Bao Qing, tell me."

After Zhao Shu sat down, he looked as leisurely as if he was visiting.

Bao Zheng said: "I think this matter has two sides. If it is settled, it seems to calm the complaints, but what will happen next? Those people have settled down, and if I try to mobilize them, I think it will definitely cause conflicts. By then, They will feel resentful..."

Zhao Shu squinted at the furnishings in the political hall, "So, you support Shen An's approach?"

Bao Zheng nodded with difficulty.

To be an official, you must have a political stance. If you don't have a stance, it may seem comfortable to have both sides. However, such people are looked down upon by everyone the most. This is the type of person who is said to be on the wall.

But Bao Zheng's nod was more of an endorsement for Shen An.

The relationship between him and Shen An is not that of father and son, but better than that of father and son. At this juncture, he will not abandon Shen An and come ashore.

But choosing this position means choosing to stand on the opposite side of the officials in the world.

Zhao Shu glanced at him and asked, "What do you think?"

"I think this matter is worthy of discussion." Han Qi's attitude did not go beyond Bao Zheng's expectations. He watched blankly, knowing that he was now alone in the political hall.

"It's not easy for those people." Han Qi looked emotionally moved, "But it's even harder for Your Majesty! So I thought it would be better for those officials to go elsewhere."

Han Qi actually sided with me and Shen An? Bao Zheng was shocked and looked at Han Qi.

Han Qi said calmly: "Does Xiren think I am just a faggot?"

At this moment, Bao Zheng felt warm in his heart and handed over his hand in thanks.

Zeng Gongliang sighed: "Yes! The people are in trouble. If we don't care about it, we will be in big trouble in the future. Redundant officials will cause a lot of troubles. Things will be delayed and expensive everywhere. I second my opinion."

Fu Bi said with a smile: "During the Qingli New Deal, Fan Wenzheng and his ministers discussed the problems of the Song Dynasty. The first was redundant officials, which led to numerous corruption. Fan Wenzheng could only take a pen and check the boxes one by one. A mediocre official..."

His eyes showed memories, and he said with some sadness: "I was beside Fan Wenzheng at that time. When I saw this, I persuaded him, saying that this stroke would make the whole family cry."

Fan Zhongyan's answer is known to everyone.

"He said...it's better to cry as a family than to cry together!"

——Exchanging the cries of the unqualified officials’ family for the joy of the people along the way!

This is Fan Wenzheng.

Shen An, who had just arrived, heard this outside the door and couldn't help but said: "What a pity, Mr. Fan!"

Fan Wenzheng's move offended officials all over the world, so the New Deal was attacked by groups.

When Zhao Shu saw him coming, he asked, "What do you think of this matter?"

Shen An saluted and said: "I think this matter should be done step by step. Has Your Majesty forgotten the area recovered in the northwest?"

Zhao Shu covered his forehead and said, "Yes, there is a shortage of officials in those places, but there are plenty of positions. It's just that the northwest is remote, so I'm afraid no one will want to go there."

Shen An smiled and said: "Can officials decide where to go? If they can't go here and don't want to go there, what's the use of such officials? I think those who don't want to go can just go back. This is My second method is to give money."

"Give money?" Zhao Shu was puzzled, "How to give it?"

"It will be paid according to the number of years." Shen An said calmly: "How many years has the official served and what is his position? List these out and how much will be paid per year. If you don't want to go to the northwest, just get the money, no matter if you are doing business or not. , regardless of farming, they will have nothing to do with the court from now on, and such people will not be allowed to be officials in the future."

The gloomy political hall suddenly became relaxed. Zhao Shu smiled and said, "I have been so worried about this matter. Who would have thought that you would have an idea? This young man is so ingenious..."

The official seemed to be too happy and even used the wrong word.

Shen An looked constipated, but couldn't refute.

"There are two ways, the first is to go to the northwest, and the second is to get money and go home..." Han Qi slapped his thigh, "How wonderful! How did you come up with this idea?"

Shen An said humbly: "I thought of it when I was dreaming."

Zhao Shu glanced at him and felt that this guy was fooling people again.

When Shen An saw everyone starting to think deeply, he resigned.

After exiting the gate, Chen Zhongheng followed behind and whispered: "The officials were a little angry with you and the king, but now it seems that the anger has mostly dissipated."

Lao Chen is really interesting!

Shen An whispered: "Is there any more hot sauce?"

Chen Zhongheng hesitated for a moment.

The weather has turned warm and humid recently, and he felt uncomfortable all over. After thinking about it carefully, I found out that it was because I didn't eat hot sauce.

Without the hot sauce, he felt comfortable in his butt.

But after eating the hot sauce, except for his buttocks, he felt comfortable all over.

So it’s very difficult!

"How about...have some."

Chen Zhongheng was thinking about his hot sauce, and when he returned, he heard Han Qi praising Shen An.

"...I am getting older, who can take over in the future? I am optimistic about Wang Anshi, but who will be after Wang Anshi? Your Majesty, Shen An is good."

"The so-called famous ministers should not only care about their own reputation, but should have a long-term view. Han Qing can set an example!"

Zhao Shu couldn't be more satisfied with Han Qi, "I have looked at the annals of history and found that in any stable period, there must be a gathering of famous ministers in the court, and one generation after another without interruption. It only takes three generations of famous ministers to serve." The prosperous age. Now that I have all the ministers and Wang Anshi and others below, I have no worries."

"When Wang Anshi and the others grow old, it will be time for me to meet my ancestors. By then, it will be the turn of the prince and young people like them to come forward."

Zhao Shu seemed extremely open-minded, and Han Qi was pleased, "Yes! One generation has its own problems. If our generation can eliminate the threat from the north, the rest will focus on the shortcomings of the country and improve them one by one. Such a great Song Dynasty Nature can be stable for thousands of years.”

"Thousands of years!" Zhao Shu looked forward to it, "If the Song Dynasty can be passed down for thousands of years, I will be willing to die."

"Your Majesty, Tang Ren has a memorial."

"Bring it here." Zhao Shu was in a good mood and smiled.

He glanced at the memorial and said with a smile: "This is a memorial asking for my instructions. He said that he was going to the academy to have a look and recruit some people to join the bank."

Han Qi was moved, "Your Majesty, the weather is really nice today!"

"That's right." Zhao Shu hadn't realized what Han Qi meant yet.

Han Qi simply went into battle shirtless, "I was thinking, why not go for a walk?"

It's office time, and you, Han Qi, want to go out for a walk. What does this mean?

But Zhao Shu nodded and said: "That's fine, I also want to go for a walk."

Chen Zhongheng watched from the sidelines and knew that both the emperor and his ministers wanted to go out for a walk, but they just needed an excuse.

So the monarch and his ministers changed into plain clothes and went to Wuxue Alley in a grand manner.

Tang Ren was already waiting outside Mangshan Academy.

There were people watching the excitement from the Imperial College nearby. When they saw Zhao Shu and others, someone said, "It's the officials and the princes."

"They actually went to the academy again, why not come to Taixue?"

As the news spread, the atmosphere in Taixue immediately became gloomy.

But the Mangshan Academy was filled with joy, and Zhao Shu would cause cheers wherever he went.

Looking at the excited faces, Zhao Shu sighed with emotion, "Seeing them so young reminds me of my own past. At that time, I was not as relaxed as them, and I had a headache reading. How are they? Looking for a question."

Tang Ren waved, and several students ran over.

"Look, when I went to Taixue last time, those students looked coquettish and not as generous as the academy." Han Qi's partiality was actually no worse than Bao Zheng. Zhao Shu just laughed after hearing this.

"I've met the official family!"

Several students stood up after saluting, looking upright.

"Let me ask you, do you feel irritable while studying now?"

One student said: "Guan family, students don't feel irritated when studying."

"Why?"

"Because most of what is taught in the academy is the study of objects, which is full of interest. From it, students know what the world is like. They feel like they are just a drop in the ocean, and they wish they could study hard all the time."

"They are eager to learn, yes." Zhao Shu was very satisfied and asked: "I remember that Taixue was also very hardworking, right? The students were also willing to learn."

Bao Zheng said: "The official family and the Imperial College work hard, but they work hard because they want to take the imperial examination and become officials."

Here I want to learn knowledge, but the Taixue next door wants to be an official and make judgments!

Han Qi glanced at Bao Zheng and nodded slightly.

Lao Bao is so cruel!

If what he said was heard by the Imperial Academy, Bao Shou would never want to study there in the future.

But with Shen An here, how could Bao Shou worry about having no place to study?

Han Qi couldn't help but smile.

Zhao Shu was even more satisfied and said, "Let's get started."

Tang Ren walked to the front and said: "With this bank reform, there is a shortage of manpower to handle all financial matters in the Song Dynasty. The official favors the academy and wants you to work in the bank when you have the opportunity..."

"Long live the official family!"

This is political correctness.

Zhao Shu nodded and smiled, very satisfied.

"What you need here is financial knowledge. Those who have ranked in the top 100 in past tests will be selected."

The professors took out the booklets and checked them one by one.

One hundred students came out.

Zhao Shu suddenly interrupted his proceedings and walked over to ask a student, "What is the most important thing in a country's finances?"

Han Qi whispered: "This is a big topic. UU Reading www.uukanshu.net The officials are making things difficult."

The people from Taixue who came later were very happy and thought this was a good thing.

The student did not hesitate, "In the officialdom and in the finance of a country, students believe that rules are the most important thing."

Tang Ren is laughing.

Mangshan Academy advocates the exchange of ideas, and holds various debates every day. Those ideas gradually mature in the constant collision.

How could students with such an atmosphere be stumped by this kind of question?

Just wait and see.

Thanks to the book friend: the leader of ‘NH48丿Guo Degang’ for the reward.

The fifth update is here, good night everyone!
