Chapter 60 Five Things to Enter the Palace The court will make various decisions
The second day after seeing Koji Shuo was the day of the Tsukichao.
Xin Er wrote a book and insisted on the seal of the county marquis.
After the dispersal of the dynasty, he entered the palace and asked to see Zuo.
Zuo has removed the dress he wore during the court meeting and replaced it with a daily jacket (gui).
The skirt is a popular lady's dress in this dynasty, which evolved from the deep clothes of the previous dynasty, but compared with the deep clothes, it is quite different.
The hem of the Danbi color jacket is folded into a triangular shape, wide at the top and sharp at the bottom, layered on top of each other, and is called "shao" at the time; And around it is decorated with colorful streamers as a decoration. The beard is also the meaning of swallowtail.
Zuo personally went to the palace to greet Xin Er.
The streamer dragged long, and when she walked, the sharp corners of the hem were pulled, like swallows flying, flowing and gorgeous.
It's very beautiful.
Xin Er couldn't help but have a word floating in his mind: Huadai Feifu.
Xin Er bowed upside down, and Zuo ordered him to get up.
After not hearing Zuo's words for a long time, Xin Er was bold, raised his head, and met Zuo's gaze.
"The general is thin."
Xin Er said: "The Queen Mother's complexion is very good. ”
Zuo's eyes flowed, carefully looked Xin Er's up and down, and said softly: "I'm tanned too." ”
Xin Er was not white in the first place, and after a few months of exposure to the sun in the Western Regions, his skin became darker and darker.
And Zuo's since Pig Nozawa has been pampered for more than a year, and his complexion has long returned to his original appearance, fair and moist.
The two stood opposite each other, Xin Ergu looked darker, and Zuo looked whiter because of it.
Xin Er said solemnly: "The minister is loyal to the queen mother and the king, and his life can still be sacrificed, not to mention a little skin color?" Black dots are black spots! ”
Nowadays, scholars regard white weakness as beauty, and they are not in the dark today, which is indeed not in line with the aesthetics of famous people.
However, Zuo's didn't care, she pursed her lips and smiled, glanced at the eunuchs and palace maids waiting outside the hall, and said softly: "Fortunately, the general has already agreed on the Western Regions, and now he has returned to the court, and he will be raised for a few days, and he will probably be able to 'restore the old view'." ”
Xin Er was stunned for a moment, and said in her heart: "Is she laughing at me?" ”
Zuo had never joked with him, and suddenly came to such a sentence, Xin Er was still a little uncomfortable, and he didn't know how to answer for a while.
Zuo returned to sit and ordered the palace maid outside the hall to come in, show Xin Er the seat, and tell him to sit too.
Xin Er refused to sit as usual.
On the day he returned to the royal capital, he prepared gifts for the Zuo family, clothes, food, spices, jewelry, treasures, etc., a dazzling array of dozens of cars, including a group of female musicians from the Western Regions, more than 20 illusionists, and Xin Er had already sent people to the palace.
Yesterday, at the behest of Zuo's Yi, Kumarosh was also sent to the palace and gave Zuo and Linghule a lecture on Buddhism.
Xin Er asked if Zuo was satisfied with these?
Zuo said with a smile: "The general really has a heart, and the things and things sent to the palace, female music, etc., are all things I like." Didn't the general smell it? ”
"Smell what?" As soon as Xin Er's words came out, the fragrance on the tip of his nose reminded him, and he immediately woke up and asked, "Yixiang?" ”
"Exactly. It was the spices sent by the general. ”
Xin Er said: "Vulgar people, few people know the difference between spices, and they don't smell it at once. ”
Zuo chuckled and said, "Yes, the general only thinks about being loyal to me and the king, so how can he care about such a trivial matter as spices?" ”
Xin Er said in his heart: "Is this laughing at me again?" ”
made two jokes in a row, which made Xin Er, who was unprepared, scratch his head, and had the heart to reply to something, but he was afraid of losing his etiquette.
After thinking about it a few times, in the end, he still decided to just treat it as if he had not heard of it, and thought: "Zuo's mood seems to be very good." ”
Zuo's mood is indeed very good.
Although she is not very political, she also knows that Xin Er's discussion of the Western Regions will not only be of great benefit to Xin Er's future, but also very helpful to stabilize Ling Hule's throne. The best of both worlds, plus Xin Er's safe return unscathed, how could she not be happy?
Xin Er's meeting with Zuo's today is a serious matter.
After chatting for a long time, Xin Er said: "Queen Mother, now I have set the Western Kingdom, although the Western Regions are fixed, there are still three sides of the captivity, the external captivity has not been eliminated, the internal disadvantages are restored, the internal and external forces are compelling, the short day may be fine, and the long will have long-term worries."
"Pseudo-Qin Pumao, a barbarian, knows change. The minister has thought twice that if our country is complacent and does not want to forge ahead, it will be in danger! If you want to strengthen the country and reassure the people, you must carry out reform. The minister has five things to play the queen mother. ”
Zuo asked, "What are the five things?" ”
"Fang Jin, in the middle of the dynasty, the county, the chief officials compete for the reputation of 'Wangbai Daikong', neglect official affairs, only talk flashy and clear, and the ministers think that this wind should be stopped! The officials should be clearly stipulated in the specific time for handling various official affairs, and those who delay or postpone should be severely punished! First of all. ”
……
A few days later, at the court meeting.
Chen Sun, Song Hong, Yan Kuan, Zhang Hun, Song Fang and others listened to the first thing that Xin Er raised.
Song Fangxin said: "I know that Tian She'er can't bear loneliness!" Sure enough, after pretending to resign from the marquis, he couldn't hold it back! Looking at Song Hong, Yan Kuan and others, seeing that they were all looking as usual, he knew that they had no intention of objecting, so he had no choice but to keep silent.
Chen Sun thought: "In all the prefectures, counties and counties in the DPRK, the daily documents often accumulate for more than a month, and I don't do it for several months, and I already feel that this is the disadvantage of my court!" Although this discussion will make those scholars and clean officials be restrained, it is beneficial to the country! ”
Koji Shuang was the first to come out in favor.
In the absence of objections, the motion was passed.
To get passed, you can't just talk about it, someone needs to be specifically responsible.
The candidate recommended by Xin Er was beyond everyone's expectations, and he recommended Zhang Daojiang and became the person specifically responsible for handling this matter.
……
Zuo asked, "What about the second thing?" ”
"Today's people regard the position of being a 'clean official' and the job of being a 'turbid official'. The Qing officials in the central and county counties were all occupied by the children of the upper class scholars; Turbid officials can only be appointed to the lower rank of scholars or Han scholars.
"The Queen Mother, what is really doing is actually these 'turbid officials'. The turbid officials' are limited to the hometown and the family, and may only be able to go around between the seven or eight grades for the rest of their lives, and they cannot see the hope of promotion, and they have few money, and some of them can't even afford to support their families; On the other hand, those who serve as 'clean officials' are already rich and wealthy, but they can be promoted quickly and well-off.
"Queen Mother, what an injustice! Although the turbid officials of the central government and the counties did not dare to complain, the ministers thought that if this malpractice was not changed in time, the state affairs would inevitably be wasted in the long run! When the resentment of the turbid officials accumulates to a certain extent, when no one is willing to do anything for the country, the country is even in danger of subversion! ”
Zuo's willow eyebrows frowned slightly, and said, "Agua ,...... General, when you say that, it's so dangerous! So how to change? ”
"I practice the Nine Grades of Officials Law, the township and the official are opposite, in this context, the 'Qing Official' is only the children of the upper class scholars, which cannot be changed. However, the minister thought that he could increase the income of the turbid officials, clearly set rewards and punishments, and reward the loyal officials. This is the second thing. ”
……
Listen to the second thing.
He thought in his heart: "The first thing is okay, but this second thing, is Xin Er going to show favor to the Han Shi?" The Han Shi of the county and the township are high, but they are only four or five high-quality, and their future has long been limited. Even if he showed favor to the Han again, what use would he get? Could it be that he still dared to raise a Han scholar to enter the court and give him a noble position? If he really dares to do this, the princes of the DPRK and the Central Committee will definitely attack him in groups! ”
Thinking of this, Pan Kuan remained silent about Xin Er's second discussion.
Koji Shuang is still the first to be in favor.
This proposal was also adopted.
Xin Er recommended Huang Rong and became the person specifically responsible for handling this matter.
……
Zuo asked, "What is the third thing about the general?" ”
"The minister is conquering the Western Regions this time, and there is an official in the Western Regions Changshi Mansion, named Yin Luo. The Queen Mother should not know about this person, but he has a clan father, and the Queen Mother must know that he is a great Confucian Yin Master who lives in seclusion in the Xugu Valley and teaches thousands of apprentices.
"The minister heard about the pseudo-Qin Pumao, expanded the school, and recruited the children of the Rong chieftain to enroll in school and study the classics of my Tang people. Rong people are still studious, how can I go to China in the future?
"The minister thinks that instead of making the Yin master teach in the wilderness, why not expand the Pan Palace in the middle of the court, invite him to enter the court, and study in Dunming? This is the third thing. ”
……
Xin Er's third discussion is above board, as long as it is a Confucian student, it is impossible to oppose it.
When listening to the first and second discussions, Song Hong had a calm demeanor, as if he had nothing to do with him.
At this time, Song Hong raised his eyelids slightly, and thought in his heart, "Shallots Yin Master? This person is not only a great Confucian, but also the most famous person in the Yin family. He usually only taught the disciples in the valley, and had no influence in the court; Xin Youzhu invited him to the court, what did he want? ”
Although he had doubts, he had no way to raise objections to such a thing.
The proposal was also adopted.
The specific person in charge, Xin Er did not recommend others, Mao Sui recommended himself, he asked to send someone to invite the Yin Master, and personally responsible for the expansion of the Pan Palace.
……
Zuo's eyes looked at Xin'er's dark and thin face, and said movingly: "The general resigned twice, and I know that the general has no selfish intentions. The three things mentioned by the general today are all for the country! The king was still a child; I grew up in a deep boudoir, and I don't understand state affairs, and the ordinary national politics on weekdays have been decided by the general, if the general didn't talk about it, where would I think of this? General, as you said, I am bound to be captured on three sides, and if there is no general, I really don't know what to do! For the affairs of the country, I would like to entrust it to the general!
"Excuse me, General, what's the fourth thing?"
"Fourth Thing......"
Without the coolness of the first three things, Xin Er hesitated a little about the fourth thing.
Zuo asked, "What's wrong?" ”
"There may be some opposition to this matter in the DPRK and China."
"What's the matter?"
"The world is in turmoil, and a large number of displaced people and scholars have moved into Longdi. The minister is one of the scholars. The ancestors of our dynasty were benevolent and loving, and set up overseas Chinese counties and overseas Chinese counties for the homeless people and the scholars for resettlement. As far as the ministers knew, the homeless people and the ladies remembered the benevolence of the previous kings. It's just that the Queen Mother has a drawback. ”
"What's the harm?"
"There are many homeless people and scholars in Qiaojun, but most of them are served by indigenous scholars."
