"Huangyang Ming" and "The Story of Songchang Building" are like two hurricanes scraping through the Great Zheng Shilin, and there are always a few sentences in these two articles that touch the hearts of readers and make people fall for them. As for the sentence "the worries of the world first, and the joy of the world after the world", whether you like Jiang Anyi or not, you must be impressed by its courage and courage.

In the imperial study, Shi Fangzhen took these two articles and sighed: "The article is eternal, no matter what else, just by virtue of this sentence 'the worries of the world first and the joy of the world after the world', after a thousand years, the world may not know me, but they will not forget Jiang Anyi." ”

Seeing that the Son of Heaven was a little stunned, Liu Weiguo smiled and said: "Look at what you said, no matter how famous Jiang Anyi is, he is just your courtier, long live you are wise and martial, and you will inevitably become the hero of the ancient and modern world, Jiang Anyi is fortunate to be appreciated and reused by you, which is his blessing." ”

Shi Fangzhen laughed and said, "You're getting better and better at talking." ”

Liu Weiguo humbly lowered his head and smiled silently.

Shi Fangzhen looked at "The Story of Songchang Building" and said: "If the world's scholars can be as loyal and patriotic as Jiang Anyi, I can sit back and relax." It's a pity that most readers only look at the word fame and fortune, how many kings and societies do they have in their hearts? ”

Liu Weiguo hesitated for a moment, but still said: "Long live, the slave thinks that Lord Jiang's words are a bit big, everyone in the world has the heart of fame and fortune, Lord Jiang is still young, how can he be so oblivious to fame and fortune." ”

"Well, you're right." Shi Fangzhen said: "It is the habit of literati to exaggerate, and Jiang Anyi is no exception, but his patriotism is not false, otherwise he can't say such loud words, no one is perfect, and he can't be perfect." ”

Liu Weiguo's words reminded Shi Fangzhen, and he frowned and said: "Last time, Jiang Anyi did something to integrate the three religions, and I beat him up, telling him to pay more attention to political affairs and less right and wrong. The words are still in my ears, and this kid has made so many Mingtang again, do you take my words as the wind in your ears? ”

The gentleman's heart is unpredictable, Liu Weiguo regrets it a little, Jiang Anyi is a talent, if he is snubbed by the Son of Heaven because of this, it will not be his fault. Shi Fangzhen thought for a moment and said to himself: "Jiang Anyi has made a huge noise in Fuluo County, could it be that he intends to let me know, what is his intention?" ”

Shi Fangzhen slapped the table and ordered: "Liu Weiguo, you send someone to the Ministry of Officials to test the merits, and ask them to bring me the performance appraisal of Fuluo County." By the way, I will bring in the performance appraisal of the officials sent from the capital to the local counties at the beginning of this year, and compare it with last year. ”

With the kung fu of the two pillars of incense, the little eunuch trotted back from the Ministry of Officials, holding the performance appraisal that the Son of Heaven wanted. There are 27 prefectures in Dazheng and 1,939 county seats, and it is impossible for the Son of Heaven to evaluate the performance of each county, but he naturally has to pay special attention to the performance of Jiang Anyi and the officials assigned this year.

The top one is the performance appraisal of Jiang Anyi, the county commander of Fuluo County, and the big red word "Shangshang" made Shi Fangzhen's eyes shine. Although he will not look at the performance appraisal of every county, the officials will summarize the situation and report to him, and there are nearly 2,000 prefectures and counties in the world, and there are only more than 10 people who can be listed as "upper".

The performance appraisal is divided into five parts, agriculture and forestry reclamation, levy and levy, population increase, social security, and moral education. First of all, agriculture and forestry reclamation, Fuluo County has added 21,000 mu of new fields, this figure is really amazing, the normal county reclaimed wasteland is at most 2,300 mu, Fuluo County actually increased tenfold. Shi Fangzhen learned from the Lizhou report that Jiang Anyi asked to accept the displaced people, build shelters for the displaced people, provide grain and cattle, and promised not to pay taxes for three years on the newly reclaimed barren land and barren mountains, and all the displaced people in Lizhou poured into Fuluo County. Shi Fangzhen's eyes swept down, and found that the population had increased, and the number of people in Fuluo County had increased by twenty-seven thousand and ninety-four, so many people had poured into Fuluo County, and the fields reclaimed by each person were less than one acre, this number was absolutely credible, and the barren mountains that should be reclaimed had not been counted.

Shi Fangzhen was most concerned about taxes, although he knew about it in advance, but when he saw the figure of ten thousand and seven hundred, he couldn't help but applaud, and blurted out: "Jiang Anyi, Zhenguoshi, Wen can write a splendid article, and start the school and say it immediately; Wu Neng sent an envoy to the Northern Desert to live up to his mission and pacify the bandits; It is no wonder that the local government has achieved such good results in the implementation of 'tax integration into one', and it is no wonder that the meritorious service department has listed it in the list of 'upper and higher'. ”

Social security and moral education Shi Fangzhen swept at a glance, these two Jiang Anyi also did a good job, exterminated the bandits in Huangyang Village, and served for one and a half years to produce two talents, which are all real achievements, and no matter how picky the test is, he can't find a fault.

"Look at it, this Jiang Anyi is capable of literature and martial arts, he is really a pillar of the country, I want to reuse him and call him back to Beijing." Shi Fangzhen excitedly shook the paper in his hand.

Liu Weiguo said with a smile: "Jiang Anyi is a talent personally selected by you, which means that you have a good eye for people." However, the old slave has some doubts, even if this Master Jiang has the ability, it is impossible for him to do so many big things in a year and a half, will there be something untrue. ”

Shi Fangzhen squinted at Liu Weiguo and said, "Liu Weiguo, have you gained the benefit of Jiang Anyi's opponent, why do you always go against him?" ”

Liu Weiguo hurriedly knelt on the ground and said: "Long live, the old slave knows that Long Live is heavy with Lord Jiang, and the old slave is afraid that Lord Jiang is young and careless, and in order to show his political achievements, he deliberately deceives Long live, and then you will lose your face, but it is not beautiful." ”

Shi Fangzhen gently kicked Liu Weiguo, who was kneeling beside him, with his foot, and scolded with a smile: "Get up, I know your loyalty, no need to show it anymore." Although Jiang Anyi is a little impatient, he can still trust what he does. Moreover, there is a report in Lizhou Prefecture, and Fuluo County is also mentioned in Longwei's spy report, so these figures should not be wrong. Jiang Anyi was already demoted to Fuluo County for deceiving me, he should have a long memory and dare not deceive me anymore. ”

Shi Fangzhen put aside the performance appraisal of Fuluo County, and turned out the performance appraisal of Pingchun County, which was also the two red characters of "Shangshang". Shi Fang is really happy, Wei Youcheng is his beloved son-in-law, he can be "superior" in Pingchun County, and his face is bright as the Son of Heaven.

"Well, yes, this child is really good, born in a rich family, he can bear hardships and stand hard work, and do some practical things in a down-to-earth manner, I don't think he is worse than Jiang Anyi." Of course, his son-in-law prefers it, and Pingchun County's five performance evaluations are also very good, except for the population growth and land reclamation is not as good as Fuluo County, the other three are above Fuluo County.

Shi Fang really understood that Wei Youcheng was his son-in-law, Wei Xiang's grandson, and he would try his best to help him from top to bottom, and it was much easier for him to do something than Jiang Anyi, but even so, Wei Youcheng really gave himself a face, and his son-in-law was not wrong. Thinking of An Shou's complaint, Shi Fangzhen smiled at the corner of his mouth, and said in his heart: "Girl, in the future, you will understand your father's hard work." ”

I looked at the performance appraisal of other people, all of them were above the "middle and upper", and the implementation of "tax integration as one" made the taxes of these counties increase significantly compared with the previous year, which made Shi Fangzhen feel happy, and Chuzhou Duan Cizong also came to play a fold and claimed that the tax revenue in Chuzhou would increase by 140,000 yuan this year, and the implementation of "tax integration as one" was smooth.

A little eunuch came in and whispered a few words in Liu Weiguo's ear, and Liu Weiguo waved him down. Shi Fangzhen asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"The queen mother, please go to Kun'an Palace for dinner, and the mother has something to say to you."

"Got it."

Princess Anshou was not in the palace, and Shi Fangzhen's number of visits to Kun'an Palace gradually decreased, which made Queen Wang a little uneasy, so she often found some excuses to let the Son of Heaven go, which made Shi Fangzhen disgusted.

The imperial study was quiet, Shi Fangzhen reviewed the chapter, and the crown prince Shi Chongwei came in from the outside and saluted: "I have seen my father." ”

Shi Fangzhen raised his head and glanced at the crown prince and asked, "Is there something wrong with the emperor?" ”

"The son sent Master Jiang's diary to his father and emperor for seeing." Shi Chongwei said respectfully.

"Oh, you've seen it, you might as well tell me about it."

Shi Chongwei responded "yes" and began to learn what Jiang Anyi wrote in his diary, "Huangyang Ming" was the first to mention, Shi Chongwei praised: "Jiang Shi's ambition is noble, which is really admirable, and his sons want to go to Huangyang Academy to see." ”

Shi Fangzhen was noncommittal, if the Yellow Sheep Academy could rise, alongside Zechang Academy, Zhangyi Academy and Guozijian, he would be happy to see it, and the talents cultivated by the academy were not yet for him, but it would be decades before the rise of the Yellow Sheep Academy.

There is no record in the diary of "The Story of Songchang Building", and the calculation time should be after the diary, but Jiang Anyi wrote another poem in the diary: The Pinglin desert is like smoke, and the cold mountains are sad and blue. Twilight into the high-rise building, some people upstairs worried. The jade steps stand in the air, and the birds return to fly quickly. Where is the return trip? Long pavilion with short pavilion.

Shi Fangzhen put down his pen and frowned: "How can this poem be full of sadness and distraction, and the words reveal the meaning of homesickness." ”

Shi Chongwei said with a smile: "What my father said is very true, and Master Zhou also said so, he said that this poem is full of melancholy and melancholy. ”

Zhou Shi, the former staff member of the Water Department of the Ministry of Engineering, Zhou Chucun, because the pomelo lamp pleases the prince, and now he has been promoted to the secretary and the secretary Lang, from the sixth product to the sixth product. At the beginning of the year, the Son of Heaven chose someone to leave Beijing, and his name was originally in the list, but Zhou Chucun interceded through the prince and stayed in Beijing on the grounds that the prince was studying, and he flattered the prince everywhere, and Shi Chongwei liked him very much.

Shi Fangzhen silently recited this poem in his heart, and sure enough, as Zhou Chucun said, he had a feeling of melancholy. Shi Fangzhen's face sank, could it be that Jiang Anyi had a grudge? Dissatisfied with yourself for sending him to Fuluo County?

Liu Weiguo is most familiar with the psychology of the Son of Heaven, seeing Shi Fangzhen's gloomy face, he secretly sighed in his heart that Jiang Anyi was going to be unlucky, thinking that he had inadvertently opposed him twice today, and this time he would help him. So, he said with a smile: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, you don't know, just now the Son of Heaven read an article by Lord Jiang "The Story of Songchang Building", in which Lord Jiang went to the country for a while to cherish his hometown, worried and fearful, and relaxed for a while, spoiled and humiliated, it is really a literati affectionate, difficult to fathom. ”

"Oh, father, where is Master Jiang's "The Story of Songchang Tower", can you let your sons see it?"

Shi Fangzhen picked up "The Story of Songchang Building" and handed it to Shi Chongwei, with a smile on his face. Yes, Jiang Anyi has a literati mentality, sad and sad, how can I care about this, it's just that since he is homesick, I will announce his return to Beijing next year.

A cold wind blew, and Jiang Anyi, who was far away in Fuluo County, tightened the fur on his body, and the opportunity he had painstakingly created almost staggered past him.
