Chapter 336: The Imperial Meeting

For example, the examination system focuses on examining resumes and qualifications, and grinding and surveying focuses on checking whether the archives and documents are complete, but the performance is often ignored.

This results in "limiting the number of years and correcting the merits, and progressing to the rank step by step." ”

As a result, seniority has become the mainstream, and a large number of talented people have not been able to achieve outstanding performance, the so-called "asking about their merits but asking about their longevity", and "officials and mediocre people go hand in hand with seniority".

At the same time, rigid systems are often exploited by officials in the authorities as a tool for soliciting bribes and enriching money. For example, during the reign of Song Gaozong, officials were often harassed by the supervisors when applying for change of office, and the materials were returned if there was a slight flaw.

Moreover, powerful officials can distort rules and regulations, especially in the exercise of authority authority in the process of dispatch.

The prime ministers often disregarded the duties of the ministers, arbitrarily expanded the scope of the "dismissal", and even interfered in the appointment of some lower-level officials.

Therefore, the various promotion systems are only applicable to the constraints on ordinary officials under normal conditions, but they cannot stop the interference of unspoken rules.

As soon as he spoke in detail, Su You felt even more confused.

Those problems that have not been effectively solved after a thousand years are not to be talked about, but to talk about oneself, do they belong to the fourth way or the third way?

If Renzong is still alive, then the proper fourth article is just an emperor and a courtier, and now Zhao Shu is on the throne.

Su Song comforted: "Don't worry, your promotion and removal are not up to the level of concern of the officials." ”

Su You breathed a sigh of relief, the monarch chooses the ministers and the ministers, a monarch like Zhao Shu, Su You really can't afford to serve.

Zhengdan Dynasty Meeting, held in the Daqing Palace, the countries envoys to congratulate.

The palace court is a guard of honor, all officials are crowned with court clothes, all roads raise people to solve the head, and the scholars also serve the class, and they wear two crowns and white robes.

The states marched into the officials, and each party made offerings.

There are Khitan, Western Xia, Goryeo, Dali.

The rest also have Hui people, with long hair and high noses, wrapped around their heads with silk and scattered clothes.

In Khotan, small golden felt hats, golden silk robes, belts, and wives and men came together, riding camels, felt pockets and bronze Duo into tribute.

The three Buddhas are all thin and spine-wrapped, scarlet clothes, and woven into a Buddha face.

The five surnames of Nanban are all black felt, and like monks, worship and see. Spinning the Han costume brocade jacket and the like.

There are also Zhenla, Dashi, Annan and so on......

The places where each country is settled are different, and Da Liao is in Dutingyi; Xia Guo is in the west post of Jiaoting; Goryeo in Tongbunkan; Hui Khotan in the House of Justice; Zhufanguo is in Zhanyun Pavilion or Huaiyuan Station.

Only Daliao and Goryeo gave a banquet in the hall.

Now there is a Dali.

The newly repaired embassy given by the imperial court to Dali was called Huaiyun Pavilion.

Xiao Gao Xianggong also came, and Su You haven't seen him for ten years, when he was a little boy, a second stunned, now a Tanhualang, a Shanxian Hou, everyone can't help but sigh.

Just last year, Yang Yunxian of the Eryuan Yang family openly rebelled, Gao Zhisheng united with the Erlin Department, suppressed it with an iron fist, and took the king of Dali to Kunming, staging a Dali version of the story of coercing the Son of Heaven to order the princes.

Because of his merits, he was given the white cliff and the land; Xu Shiguan Shilu, managing the land and the people; Then he became a marquis, doubled his father's political legacy, and from then on he was in power.

This time I came to continue to reaffirm the old friendship with the Great Song Dynasty, and the dependence of the Shanxi Mansion on the southwest of the Great Song Dynasty.

The Sitong Merchant and the Erlin Department provided food and weapons this time, and also made a large amount of war money.

When he learned that Su You had returned to Beijing, the first thing Xiao Gao Xianggong did was to invite Su You to meet him at the embassy.

Finding out that Ah Homi was actually in the embassy, Su You couldn't help but be a little surprised: "Sister, how did you get in?" ”

Xiao Gao Xianggong smiled: "Ami is my bow and crossbow advisor, why can't you?" ”

"Okay, why not." Su You bowed to Gao Zhisheng: "I have to hear that Brother Xian killed the rebellion, supported the royal family, and the king of Dali split the soil and sealed the marquis, and you dare to congratulate Brother Xian." ”

Gao Zhisheng also bowed and returned the salute: "I have to hear that the virtuous brother is exploring the flowers, knowing Kuizhou, helping the poor, overcoming the strong beam, the prestige of the southwest Yizhong, and Zhisheng dares to congratulate the virtuous brother." ”

Ah Homi pouted: "Two nerds! ”

Both of them laughed.

Xiao Gao Xianggong doesn't need to be modest here, the two of them will blow more than the other, you dare to say that you killed the bloody Red Snow Mountain, I dare to say that I killed the corpse; If you dare to say that the heavenly soldiers have been wiped out, I dare to say that the gods and Buddhas protect no one and not hurt anyone, anyway, they all know that the other party doesn't believe it, and it's just fun to say it.

Ah Mi was dumbfounded: "How many people are there in the southwest?" If you continue to blow like this, I'm afraid you'll be the only one left, right? ”

The two laughed and retracted, and Su You asked Ah Yumi, "Sister, how is the little nephew?" ”

Ah Homi smiled: "Like his father, little nerd." Mr. Fan likes it very much, and the children also like Mr. Fan. ”

After speaking, he asked Su You: "Mr. Fan asked me to ask you, Erlin Ministry, is there any possibility of naturalization?" ”

Su You said: "It's hard to say, this time Kuizhou is naturalized, and I don't know what the attitude of the imperial court is." ”

Ah Homi said: "What Mr. Fan said, there are more and more Han people in the Erlin Department now, and these people are now an important part of the Erlin Ministry. ”

"The mining and farming of the Second Forest Department are inseparable from these people, but they are all Song and Qi people."

"If too many Song people go to the Erlin Department, it may cause unease in the Great Song Dynasty."

"There is another problem, that is, the relationship between the state and the Great Song Dynasty is now a tributary relationship. Nowadays, the grass market around the second forest department, the court, can be opened, and the court can be closed, and it is not customized. ”

"Our commodity exchange with the Great Song Dynasty is still limited to Shuzhong, and if we want to continue to develop, it is not something that a tributary system can accommodate."

Therefore, the best solution is to return to the stream. Let us become real Song people, as long as we pay taxes and pay the two taxes, we will be able to trade bulk commodities, and we will be able to sell our products to Wuzhong, Bianliang, and even Shaanxi and Hebei. ”

Su You sighed and said: "Sister, we are from the southwest, and we can't speak in the court now, if we want to become the Great Song Qimin, we may pay a big price, or, take it slowly?" ”

Ah Mi was a little disappointed.

Su You said: "Let's take it slowly, step by step, and see if we can solve the sales problem first." There is no reason why Erlin Iron is such a good product, and Da Song will turn a blind eye. ”

Ah Homi sighed: "Brother, you have said so, it seems that you have to do so." ”

On the first day of the Zhengdan Pilgrimage, the second day of the envoys of all countries burned incense in the Great Xiangguo Temple, and on the third day there was an activity, and the envoys of various countries shot bows in the South Imperial Garden.

Chaoyan also selected to shoot military ministers to accompany him, and at the same time gave a banquet, the most interesting thing is that the common people can watch and cheer.

On the arrow field of the Imperial Garden, fifty steps ahead, more than ten arrow stacks were erected.

Most of the envoys used crossbows.

However, the Liao State, the envoy of Western Xia, also had a hard bow in front of him.

Now the conflict between the Liao State and the Western Xia is fierce.

The current lord of Western Xia is Li Liangzuo, who is now sixteen years old and is considered an "enterprising" monarch.

Li Liangzuo's biological mother did not hide the black clouds, originally Li Yuanhao was the wife of Ye Li Yu Qi, and later Ye Li Yu Qi was given to death by Li Yuanhao, and he did not hide the family as a nun.

When Li Yuanhao visited the home of the Yeli clan, he welcomed the Wuzang clan into the palace and fornicated with him, and was discovered by the Yeli Queen, who ordered him to become a nun in the Jietan Temple and gave him the title of Master Wuzang.

But Li Yuanhao was so fascinated by the Wuzang clan that he often went to the temple for trysts.

The Heavenly Rite Law was extended for ten years, and in the seventh year of the Great Song Dynasty, the Wuzang clan gave birth to Li Liangzuo when he was hunting with Li Yuanhao.

Because he was an illegitimate child, Li Liangzuo was raised by his uncle and did not hide the Pang family since he was a child.

As a result, he gained the trust of Li Yuanhao and gradually mastered the state politics of Western Xia.

In order to maintain greater power, the brothers and sisters of the Muzang clan began to plot a conspiracy to overthrow the crown prince Ning Lingge and replace Li Liangzuo as the crown prince.

After some manipulation, Queen Yeli fell out of favor and was deposed.

Li Yuanhao was the wife of the crown prince Ning Lingge, but because of his beauty, the perverted father-in-law kept his daughter-in-law for his own enjoyment.

Brother Ning Ling was furious, and he was shocked by his situation, and went to the palace to try to kill his father to stand on his own, and Li Yuanhao was cut off his nose during the battle, and died of blood loss.

How could the brothers and sisters miss such a good opportunity, Brother Ning Ling was killed for the unhidden Pang, and then Li Liangzuo, who was only eleven months old, was proclaimed as the lord of the country, and the Wuzang clan was respected as the queen mother.

From then on, Western Xia fell into the vicious circle of the dictatorship of the Hou Party until the destruction of the country.
