The loud noise in the imperial city last night also alarmed Emperor Chongde. Before the early dynasty, he heard Chang Kang talk about the specific situation, and knew that it was only the Zhongshu Provincial Assembly Hall that collapsed, and there were no official casualties, so he didn't pay much attention to it.

At this moment, he sat on the dragon chair, looking at Pei Gongfu who was almost wiping his tears in the Xuanzheng Palace, and his heart swelled with deep incomprehension. The government collapsed, and the repair and reconstruction is, how big of a deal is this? Pei Gongfu is like this, as for it?

Whether it is or not, Pei Gongfu is doing it. He stood in the middle of the hall and was talking about the collapse of the Zhongshu Provincial Office. The miserable description and mournful tone moved the officials in the Xuanzheng Palace.

If they didn't know that the council hall had collapsed, they would still think that Pei Gongfu was describing some kind of human tragedy! Lord Zhongshu Ling, it seems to be a bit too much, right?

"Your Majesty, the official office of the Chinese scholar has been built for a long time and has withstood more than 70 years of wind and rain. Moreover, there have been snakes, insects, rats and ants in recent years. The large beam of the council hall is that the ants are mostly eroded, and then they are bitten by rats, and finally they will be broken. Now that the council hall has collapsed, the rubble of the Zhongshu official office is scattered, debris is scattered on the ground, and the house will collapse at any time, and the officials and guards dare not step into it......," Pei Gongfu said, bringing together the situation of the official office he had just seen.

In the end, he said: "In the end, the area of the Zhongshu official office is too bad. It is against the wall, and outside the wall is the royal hunting ground, where snakes, insects, rats and ants have a place to hide, and it is difficult to eradicate it. This situation must have been well understood by Lord Wang. Lord Wang. What do you think? ”

As soon as he said this, Wang Zhang came out and said, "This is indeed the case. A few days earlier, there were sawdust in Zhongshu and Menxia provinces, presumably these sawdust were bitten out by mice, and the officials on duty at night said that they could still hear the 'squeak' sound. Snakes, insects, rats and ants like to decay the most, and it is true that the official offices in that area are too old......"

A few decades ago, the status of Zhongshu and Menxia provinces was not as important as it is now. Due to various considerations, the imperial court set the location of the two provinces of Zhongshu and Menxia in the southwest corner. It is not only far away from the palace city and the Xuanzheng Palace, but also leans against the imperial city wall. Outside the walls is the royal hunting grounds. Hunting grounds. Of course, it's a land of lush mountains and forests, and what is there not?

In this way, Pei Gongfu and Wang Zhang should be together, and the officials of Zhongshu and Menxia provinces said that they couldn't stay. It also made the officials fully aware that even if the Zhongshu Provincial Assembly Hall did not collapse at this time. It will collapse later. Because the environment is so harsh that it is unavoidable.

The faces of the officials of Zhongshu Province were a little confused, they felt that Zhongshu Province was okay in normal times, although it was indeed old. But it's also clean and tidy, and I don't usually feel any danger, and it's not as bad as the chief officer said. Why did the ruler say that?

Yes, why did Pei Gongfu and Wang Zhang work so hard to talk so badly about the officials of Zhongshu and Menxia provinces? -- This doubt also surged into the heart of Shangshu Zuocheng Jiang Qin.

Now Fang Jixin is recuperating at home, and Jiang Qin is temporarily in charge of Shangshu Provincial affairs. Jiang Qin also adhered to Fang Jixin's belief and did not want to see Zhongshu Province. The reason for not being seen, without him, is still for the word "power".

Shangshu Province is in charge of the affairs of hundreds of officials, which is the most important of the three provinces, which can be reflected in the fact that the six subordinate officials are all official positions of the third grade. However, since the end of Jianhe, the status of Zhongshu Province and Menxia Province has become more and more important, and the power has also increased.

Now, the two provinces of Zhongshu and Menxia are the same as Shangshu Province, they are all Zuo Tianzi and hold great power, although the rank of Zhongshu Ling and Menxia is lower than that of Shangshu Ling, but Jiang Qin still feels a kind of oppression and crisis.

As early as a few years ago, Jiang Qin had mentioned to the main official Jixin that it was necessary to prevent the two provinces of Zhongshu and Menxia from getting bigger, and then the power of Shangshu Province would be limited. -- There are so many powers in the center of the country, and if it is large, it will naturally be small.

Fang Jixin obeyed Jiang Qin's advice, and since then, he has targeted Pei Gongfu everywhere, which is the cause of the grudge between Fang and Pei, and gradually became the fruit of the discord between Shangshu Province and Zhongshu Province.

Now, the Zhongshu Provincial Assembly Hall has been destroyed by rain and insects, which is something that cannot be done by manpower. At the beginning, Jiang Qin also had a hint of schadenfreude in his heart, watching Pei Gongfu's crying was like watching a good show.

But even Wang Zhang is involved, so he can't be like watching a play. These two chiefs are united, and their actions are by no means as simple as crying! It gave him a bad premonition, and he always felt that something was overlooked.

Sure enough, his hunch soon came true. It turned out that Pei Gongfu and Wang Zhang had such an idea!

After crying, Pei Gongfu revealed his true intention: relocation! Relocate the two provinces of Zhongshu and Menxia!

I saw him bow his head slightly, and said to Emperor Chongde: "Your Majesty, the environment in Zhongshu and Menxia provinces is too bad, and it is no longer suitable for working here. Now that there is such a disaster, the entire official office has almost been destroyed, so the ministers asked to relocate the two provinces of Zhongshu and Menxia and choose another place to work. ”

As soon as Pei Gongfu's words fell, Wang Zhang immediately spoke: "Your Majesty, the minister seconded Lord Pei's performance." Not to mention that the location of the officials of the two provinces is so bad, but it is also inconvenient to say that the two provinces are in the remote southwest corner, and it is very inconvenient to go to the Xuanzheng Hall and the palace. The officials of the Zhongshu Province who have undertaken the decree need to go for a long time when they go to perform political affairs. This place is really not suitable......"

With the improvement of the status of Zhongshu and Menxia provinces, the official office in such a remote corner has many inconveniences, which has long caused dissatisfaction with Pei Gongfu and Wang Zhang. They had also mentioned the intention of relocation to Emperor Chongde many times before, but they were all blocked by Fang Jixin, and finally they couldn't do it.

Now, the official offices of Zhongshu and Menxia provinces have suffered this natural disaster, especially in Zhongshu Province, even the council hall has collapsed, and there is no place to work at all. In this way, even if the province does not want to move, it will have to move. You can't work in such a dangerous place, right?

Menxia Province and Zhongshu Province are closely linked, and they have also been damaged. If Zhongshu Province is relocated, there is no reason for Menxia Province to continue here.

As soon as he heard Pei Gongfu propose to relocate, Jiang Qin's heart jumped suddenly. Sure enough, it's a relocation! Pei Gongfu and Wang Zhang's crying is just for the purpose of relocating!

If the two provinces of Zhongshu and Menxia are relocated, then they will definitely move into the palace close to the Xuanzheng Hall and the palace, and they will definitely be closer to the emperor than the Shangshu province. The distance determines the amount of contact, and the amount of contact with the emperor determines the amount of power!

The relocation of Menxia and Zhongshu provinces is the seizure of power by Zhongshu and Menxia provinces, which is absolutely impossible in Jiang Qin's view!
