Chapter 471 County Government

The streets of Jiangzhou and the location of the Thorn Mansion are similar to those of Mayi and Yanmen. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Several main streets leading to the Thorn Mansion are very spacious and tidy, and they are probably built in imitation of the new Chang'an City on the Longshou Plain during the reign of Emperor Wen of Sui, which is also magnificent.

Then needless to say, the planning of the Assassin's Mansion is a yatang in front, and the private residence of the guards in the back.

Pei Shiqing's assassination history has actually been a few years old.

Almost ten years after the great cause, Pei Shiqing was offended by writing a letter to admonish the expedition to Liaodong, and then resigned and returned to his hometown to take over the position of Pei's lord.

In the thirteenth year of the great cause, Li Yuan raised troops in Taiyuan and went south, because Pei had a special contribution to the Li family, Pei Shiqing was awarded the title of Wenxi County Gong, Jin Jiang County Taishou, Li Yuan was called the emperor in the fourteenth year of the great cause, and the county was withdrawn from the state.

However, due to the fall of Jinyang, Pei Shiqing did not receive an edict and was reappointed as the assassin of Jiangzhou.

In other words, Pei Shiqing has only been in charge of Jiangjun for two or three years, but he has already changed the foyer repeatedly, first as Sui Chen, then as Li Tang, and now he has voted for Li Po.

In this way, I can't complain that Pei Shiqing has so many thoughts of self-pity.

Li Po was introduced into the main hall of the Assassin's Mansion, and after a little scrutiny, he sat down unceremoniously.

There are not many people who follow him into the hall, Wei Chigong and others have been sent by him to the barracks to lead the troops, and now Jiangzhou is already a large army gathering, and the military affairs are busy, and no one has much spare time.

So now there are only Luo Shixin and Xue Wanche left by Li Po's side, they are both generals under the Governor's Mansion, and they are not under the control of the Left and Right Wei Mansions, and now they must be with Zhang Jin to protect Li Po's side.

Li Po sat down, sighed comfortably, waved his hand to let a few people sit down, and then someone served fragrant tea.

Li Po took a few sips, put down the tea bowl and said to Xue Wanche and Luo Shixin: "Recently, this is the Chinese army, you two have worked hard, and then arrange it properly, well, first pass the order to the ministries, and I will set up a banquet here tomorrow night to entertain everyone." ”

Pei Taishou ...... You still have to handle the dinner party, remember, this is not only a banquet, but also a military discussion, just keep it simple, don't let too many idle people appear, if there is something to watch, it will be a lot of trouble......"

Several people nodded yes, Li Po waved his hand and began to drive people away, "You two go now, if there is anything, you will consult with Pei Taishou." ”

Luo Shixin and Xue Wanche immediately got up, hammered the cuirass and led away.

Li Po picked up the tea bowl and slowly sipped the tea, looked at the books on the table, and the lobby fell silent.

The books on the table were neatly stacked, Li Po swept his eyes, and he also knew that on one side was the household registration of Jiangxian County, and on the other hand, there was the field registration of Jiangxian County, which was a matter of affairs under the control of Cao, a citizen of a county.

On the other side, there is the official and military registration of Jiangxian, which is obviously included by Gongcao and Bingcao, and the thickest stack on the table is the record of Jiangjun's warehousing, which is an independent matter of the degree of support and should be attributed to the director of Cangcao.

Roughly speaking, these are the main records of a county's military and political affairs.

Of course, this can't be all the records, Li Po flipped through them casually, and they were all general records.

He was no stranger to them, he knew the preciousness of these things, and he also knew the origin and procedure of these things.

Roughly speaking, the general record should be checked once a year, subtracted or supplemented, and once every two to three years, the old records should be thoroughly updated, and this time the big check should be handled by the Jingshi Yushitai according to the previous Sui law, and it should be rerecorded and brought back to the Jingshi.

In addition to serving as the basis for the management of the local government by the departments of the Beijing Division, it is also used by local officials to evaluate their merits.

This is a relatively complete management system, and it is also the best embodiment of the gradual centralization of power after the war in the late Han Dynasty.

Seeing Li Po's attention shifted, Pei Shiqing took the opportunity to explain: "From the fourth year of the Great Cause, all the old and new documents of Jiangjun are here, among which from the ninth year of the Great Cause to the thirteenth year of the Great Cause, there was a lot of turmoil in Hedong, heavy servitude, and more and more people fled from Jiangxian County. ”

Why did the fourth year of the Great Cause begin, Pei Shiqing didn't say this question, Li Po thought about it and understood, the fourth year of the Great Cause was after the end of the rebellion of Yang Liang, the king of the Han Dynasty.

It is estimated that the records of the Kaihuang period or the early years of the Great Cause are also preserved, so there is no need to take them out.

Li Po flipped through the household registration, turned it directly to the back, and said casually, "I remember that Pei Taishou served as the Taishou of Jiangjun for the fourteenth year of the Great Cause, right?" ”

"What the chief manager said is not bad, Xia Guan is the ...... of the fourteenth year of the Great Cause to govern Jiang County" Speaking of this, Pei Shiqing paused, and had the heart to say a few words, after all, he was given by Li Yuan in the fourteenth year of the Great Cause, but when the words came to his mouth, he swallowed it back.

He also has conceit, it is not easy to do this step, and he is unwilling to do it if he wants to be clever and eloquent.

Li Po didn't raise his head, and directly found the household registration book of the fourteenth year of Daye, this one looked much thinner than the previous one, and when he opened it, the record was more detailed than before.

What does this mean Of course, Li Po knows that the population of Jiangxian County has also decreased greatly, and that series of figures, people who don't know about political affairs are just watching the excitement, and for those who know the truth, it must be shocking.

The reason why Pei Shiqing said that the records of nine to thirteen years are not detailed must be because the local officials concealed the report, and the consequences of the three expeditions to Liaodong in that year can be seen in these books.

Li Po gently covered the book, sighed slightly, and said: "For Li Tang, you are a traitor, and for me, you are a descendant, but for the people of this Jiangxian County, Taishou has a great merit......"

At this point, Li Po is very satisfied with this Pei lord, and Wang Cong, the lord of the Jinyang Wang clan, has half the dexterity of this person, and the Jinyang Wang clan is estimated not to fall to the point where it is today.

Over there, Pei Shiqing's eyes widened slightly, these words were too beautiful for a person like him, Pei Shiqing then got up, folded his sleeves and bowed and said: "Both a traitor and a subordinate, the subordinate officials feel guilty and want to die, and they dare not ......take credit."

Li Po blinked his eyes and said in his heart, are you really being modest? Or is what I just said wrong?

Okay, just when you're being modest, if you want to be so yin and yang, can I really be a good deceitful?

Then he waved his hand and smiled: "You don't need to be so humble when you sit down and talk...... In these days, it's hard to talk about everyone's merits...... When I was in Jinyang, someone said in front of me how Li Yuan was and how the Jinyang Wang family was that day, but in my opinion, this is all nonsense......

"Becoming a king and defeating a king, it has been the same since ancient times, for example, your Pei family, today is quite repetitive, but if you can help others achieve great things one day, who will care about the loss of today's subsections?"

In fact, after saying these few words, Pei Shiqing was not only at ease, but also quite surprised.

Is this really the brave man who rumored to rise in Daizhou? Between the words, although there is no quotation from the scriptures, it can be seen that the matter is clear, the thinking is clear, and it is really very human.

And as soon as I heard it, I knew that this person was not a person who could not understand literature and ink, and the meaning of these words was also quite difficult to think about.

Pei Shiqing finally put away the last trace of contempt, and when people were really serious, it was Li Po's turn to feel uncomfortable.

This is actually the reason why he separated everything else and talked to Pei Shiqing alone.

When you don't understand what people are talking about, it is inevitable that the words will not reach the meaning, and it will be inevitable that you will be ugly and obedient.

So he quickly ended the conversation, and went to the back house of the Assassin's Mansion to rest on the grounds that the saddle horse was tired.

When Pei Shiqing said goodbye, he was still a little unfinished.

His state at this time is actually similar to Xu Shiji, he can't talk about meeting the Ming Lord or anything, and it is far from the worst prediction before, and he thinks that it would be good if he could talk in detail once or twice.

is different from Xu Shiji, Pei Shiqing is no longer young, and he looks very lightly at glory, wealth and even men's exploits, and does not have much desire to assist the master and fight for the world.

The only thing Pei Shiqing values now is actually the family, in essence, he is not much different from Wang Cong, as long as the family is well, everything is over, and other things that can impress them cannot be said to be absent, but they are rare.

At this time, Li Po, who went to the back house of the Assassin's Mansion, also felt a little regretful, if the surname Pei could speak well, the harvest of this conversation should be greater.

Because of the location of the Pei family's ancestral home, it is determined that their influence in the southeast of the river is much greater than that of the Jinyang Wang family, with the current situation, if you want to pacify the east of the river, it is the best shortcut to use the prestige of the Pei family.

Of course, the shortcomings of the Pei family in Hedong are also very obvious, the Wang family of Jinyang is considered to be desperate before he Li Po, but the Pei family is not, around the princes of the world, you can vaguely see the figure of the Pei family of Hedong.

It can be said that this is a wealthy family of Jindi that gradually prospered in the auspicious season and rose rapidly in the troubled times.

Seeing the wind and making the rudder is their means of survival, the emergence of talents is their fundamental reliance, and the multi-party bet is that they are seeking development, in today's world, there are really not many families like the Pei family, in fact, those Guanxi gate valves compared with them, that is, they occupy the key points of the Beijing division have a little advantage, and the rest of the aspects are much inferior to the Pei family.

After a good night's sleep in the back house of the Assassin's Mansion, after waking up, Li Po checked the various documents sent by Pei Shiqing, and compared them with the counties of the two states, at this time, he could realize more and more clearly that both Jiang County and Linfen County did have incomparable advantages in the border areas.

And the counties of Jindi are barren in the world, and his so-called foundation is actually still stained with the light of war, otherwise, he would never have been able to rampage into Jiangxian with only those men and horses in the border area, what he lacks now is actually the real land of grain production.
