Chapter 146: Wen Chengwu casts the foundation and changes it to superintendent

[What's that, my second child has been avoiding milk these days, and I've been tossing for three nights in a row, which makes me confused, and I'll change it today, and the old rules will be made up tomorrow - Friday at the latest, my wife will almost be able to watch the second child, so it won't affect the outbreak on the shelves. 】

Facts have proved that Sun Shaozong's two 'high-profile' appearances before and after are still very effective.

After the Luming banquet, more than ten people came to visit him one after another, and established the status of 'master and apprentice' with him.

This number of people does not seem to be very good, compared to the fact that the examiner can admit one hundred and thirty-eight disciples at once, it can be said that there is a difference between heaven and earth.

But considering that Jia Yucun, who is the fourth rank of the Mansion, has recruited disciples who are only on a par with him, this achievement is enough to make people look sideways.

Of course, those who found Sun Shaozong were basically helpless children of poor families, as well as alternative literati who were interested in criminal investigation, and those children of officials and eunuchs looked down on him for the time being.

However, on September 18, Sun Shaozong was working in the Criminal Names Division as usual, and saw Zhou Da holding a copy of the Di Bao and hurriedly coming in from outside, and before he could gain a firm foothold, he hurriedly said: "My lord, take a look at this new Di Bao!" ”

As he spoke, he spread the newspaper on the table, and turned one of the pages to Sun Shaozong.

Sun Shaozong roughly swept it, but it turned out to be the minutes of an internal meeting between the emperor and the governor of Hebei.

The first half of the discussion focuses on the resettlement measures after the relocation of the victims in Hebei; In the second half, the conversation suddenly changed and discussed the feasibility of upgrading Hebei to Zhili Province.

This was done in order to appease the discontent of Hebei officialdom.

As early as when Sun Shaozong went to the south bank to be imprisoned, he heard the officials complain, saying that there were corrupt officials in the capital, but it was the people of Hebei who suffered.

There are even more complaints among the people, and all kinds of folk songs emerge in an endless stream, angry, ridiculous, and self-deprecating......

Fortunately, the court's relief was timely, otherwise there might really be a civil uprising.

At present, since the victims of the disaster are to be resettled back, it is natural to give some sweetness, even if it is only in name, so as to appease the resentment in the hearts of the officials and people of Hebei.

"Your Excellency."

Zhou Da said nervously: "You say that this Hebei changed to Zhili Province, is it reliable?" ”

"I guess it's already settled."

Sun Shaozong shook the newspaper in his hand and said, "Otherwise, how could the content of this cabinet meeting be published in the newspaper." ”

"How's that going to be?!"

When Zhou Da heard this, he beat his chest and said: "If Hebei is really changed to Zhili, our Shuntian Mansion will also be placed under the jurisdiction of the Governor of Zhili. ”

"My lord, when you were in Hebei, you forced the governor of Zhou to watch the execution, but you offended him greatly, if he crooked his mouth at that time......

It turned out that he was worried about this.

Sun Shaozong said with a smile: "Don't worry, don't say that this matter has not been done yet, even if it is really decided, the governor of Zhili will not interfere casually, and we will follow the promotion and transfer of officials in Tianfu." ”

After all, the Shuntian Mansion is not as good as other places, and the Son of Heaven has mixed fish and dragons at his feet, and his power may not be as good as that of ordinary mansions, but there are more than ten times more troubles.

If the new governor is not a fool, he will not take the initiative to meddle in the trivial affairs within the Shuntian Mansion, at most, when it comes to major policies, he will ask the Shuntian Mansion to cooperate in the name of Shangfeng.

Zhou Da's political acumen is obviously insufficient, and when he heard Sun Shaozong say this, he was still a little skeptical.

Sun Shaozong didn't bother to explain to him, waved his hand casually, and let him bow down and retreat.

After Zhou Da left, Sun Shaozong carefully looked through the newspaper and found that in addition to the major event of Hebei's change to Zhili, there seemed to be some reforms brewing in the army.

It's not a big deal, the main thing is that the emperor wants to take advantage of the ten years on the throne to completely separate the honorable and the real - in short, it is to change their names.

For example, in addition to the actual positions in the army, there are many similar false titles on the sons and daughters of the nobles, such as the cavalry captain, cloud cavalry captain, commander and so on.

If you don't ask carefully, you can't tell whether it's a real job or a lord.

Therefore, Emperor Guangde was ready to change the actual cavalry lieutenant and lieutenant to the thousand and hundred households used in the previous dynasty, and as for the title of the commander, it was replaced by the lieutenant of the light car.

The higher rank of general will also be gradually stripped from the substantive post system and replaced by the name of commander and commander.

Tut~

This seems to be useless, but in fact, it weakens the power of the middle and low-level nobles - at least it is not so easy to rely on the title to scare people.

Of course, for those top families, the impact is not too great, after all, those families either have big bosses in the court, or there are nobles in the palace to support them, not to mention the false title on their heads, even if they are white, they can still run rampant.

But......

Is this Emperor Guangde's intention to gradually weaken the influence of the nobles, or is it simple, he just wants to get rid of the disadvantages of honors and actual positions?

Sun Shaozong stared at the newspaper for a long time, and finally came to a conclusion: no matter what, it's none of his business!

Although the Sun family is also from the noble class, now that the two brothers have real jobs, no matter how much the court reforms, it will not affect them for the time being.

Belch~

Maybe it will have an impact on the next generation, but who can say for sure what will happen in a few decades?

However, in the situation hundreds of years later, Sun Shaozong has a better spectrum in his heart.

Putting aside the matter of restructuring, Sun Shaozong took out a few officialdom laces from the newspaper again, ready to be used as a talking point for chatting at tomorrow's party.

Seeing that it was not early outside, especially the female gentleman hired by Cheng Rixing today, she still came to teach Xiangling on the first day, and Sun Shaozong also wanted to go back to see what was new.

So he asked Lin Delu on duty to explain and left Shuntian Mansion.

Nothing to say all the way.

When he returned to his mansion, before he could enter the door, he heard a nervous report from his subordinates: Two military masters of the Dragon Guards have come to the house, and they have been waiting for half an hour.

The people of the Dragon Janissaries?

Is it for Channing's case again?

Sun Shaozong entered the front hall suspiciously, and immediately knew that he was thinking too much, because it was not someone else who had been waiting in the living room for a long time, it was Lu Jianxing and Shen Lian - and because they were involved in the 'fake Jin Yichuan' incident, they did not participate in the investigation of Qian Ning's case at all.

Sure enough, after the guest and host sat down, Lu Jianxing did not mention Qian Ning's matter, only said that Qin Kejian had lost his official position and was exiled to Yunnan-Guishan District because he was suspected of shielding his boss.

"Qin Kejian was exiled? Have you found evidence of his collusion with Channing? ”

Sun Shaozong was a little surprised, it is said that Qian Ning is already dead without proof, with Qin Kejian's cleverness, it should not be possible for people to catch the real hammer.

"Your Excellency."

Shen Lian smiled bitterly: "Beizhen Fusi is different from other places, as long as Shangfeng is willing, the word 'unnecessary' is enough to convict." ”

These words are full of bitterness, but it seems to empathize.

Sun Shaozong therefore asked about the situation of the two of them now in the Dragon Guard.

Lu Jianxing and Shen Lian glanced at each other, and said with some embarrassment: "Don't hide it from your lordship, because of the third child's matter, our two brothers have also eaten some hanging, and now they have handed over the errand in hand, as for how to arrange it in the future, there has been no news." ”

Feelings: They came to the door for help this time.

However, the talents and conduct of the two brothers are still passable, and there is not much involvement in them, if they are gracious, they can also be a help in the future.

Thinking like this, Sun Shaozong said: "Ming'er, I made an appointment with General Shenwu's family to have a drink, and your brothers are idle, why don't you go over with me to play?" ”

This is the intention of matchmaking and letting them jump to the patrol battalion.

Lu Jianxing was obviously a little hesitant, after all, his ancestors were all in the Dragon Guard, and in the four battalions and one guard, the Dragon Guards were also respected, so it was a bit ...... to suddenly let him go elsewhere

Shen Lian immediately pulled him, got up and said, "Thank you, Lord for lifting up!" ”

Hearing the word 'lifting, Lu Jianxing came back to his senses.

Although the Dragon Guard is good, it is helpless and hopeless for promotion.

And although the status of the patrol battalion is a little worse, but in the small yaya of General Shenwu's family, and Sun Shaozu, a four-grade general, will take care of it, but if he makes some contributions in the future, he is afraid that he will not be promoted to an official?

So he hurriedly expressed his determination and said: "If my two brothers have a bright day, they will never forget the cultivation of adults!" ”
