During this period of time, all taxes from all over the country were sent to Beijing, and this week made the officials of the entire household department fall into unprecedented busyness.

The incomparably fulfilling life made them have no time to think at all, let alone guess the "tricks" secretly carried out by His Royal Highness King Qin and Wang Qishangshu.

Finally, everything was done, and they each went back to their respective homes and ushered in a one-day rest day.

Wang Qi took the excerpt into the palace to face the saint, and Li Fangchen led the people in the palace of the king of Qin and began to be busy in the household department.

Others don't know what will happen to the household.

At the end of the year, Li Fangchen's idea is very simple, to spend the New Year happily.

First of all, as the household department of his current work unit, he must dress up well.

Red paper, red lanterns, and red carpets, you name it.

There are also some melons, fruits and desserts sent from the Qin Palace, as well as big red envelopes prepared in advance.

The door was slightly empty, and Li Fangchen went to invite Yan Shigu and asked him to inscribe.

"Your Highness, the minister won't, and he won't dare!"

"It's just for you to write a couplet, you are a great Confucian, why can't you even write a couplet?"

Yan Shigu wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, this is the household department, Your Highness, don't you consider letting Your Majesty write it?

"Look at what you see, let you write it!"

"Okay, what did the minister write?"

"Stupid, do you still need me to teach you?"

“”

Yan Shigu really wanted to put down the pen and run, no matter how he said it, he was also a great Confucian, but he was scolded for being stupid, where can he reason about this?

"Shanglian: The sea is inclusive, there is tolerance is great, and the lower link: the wall is thousands of miles, and there is no desire to be rigid. Criticize horizontally, warn colleagues! ”

When Yan Shigu heard this, he couldn't help but praise and said, "It is worthy of His Royal Highness." ”

Since His Royal Highness has said it, what is he still afraid of, he is directly angry.

The couplets were written on the red paper, and Li Fangchen hurriedly asked people to paste them on both sides of the door of the household.

If you want to say that Yan Shigu is most satisfied, it lies in the horizontal criticism, warning colleagues, what a warning to colleagues!

This is not only for the household officials, but also for the officials of the Tang Dynasty!

In the palace at this time, Li Shimin praised Wang Jue, "Wang Qing, you did a good job this time, and you will be rewarded with a thousand taels of silver!" ”

Wang Jue hurriedly confessed, "I can't help it, this is all the work of His Royal Highness the King of Qin, the old minister is just asking for a bargain, if Your Majesty really wants to reward it, it is better to reward it to His Royal Highness the King of Qin!" ”

When Li Shimin heard this, he couldn't help but have a black line on his forehead, "Didn't he Li Fangchen ask me for 50,000 yuan?" ”

Wang Jue explained: "That's not a reward for His Highness, His Highness means, it's a year-end bonus for all officials in the household department." ”

The year-end commendation, Li Shimin guessed the meaning of the words as soon as he heard it.

50,000 guan is really not much, after all, the previous investigation of corrupt officials and corrupt officials made the treasury hundreds of thousands of yuan.

It's just that these 50,000 guan were distributed by King Qin to the household department, and Li Shimin was a little unhappy.

"Then tell me what his actions mean?"

Wang Qi straightened his body, fortunately, His Royal Highness had already mentioned something before, and His Majesty asked him, and he already had the answer in his belly.

"If you don't want officials to be corrupt, if you don't want officials to be greedy for ink, then reward more!"

"Besides, I want to hear how that stinky boy explained to you to coax me!"

Wang Jue continued: "If you are honest and don't care about your family, why aren't you greedy when you are an official? If there is money to be rewarded, why should you be greedy? ”

It is equivalent to double the salary of later generations, if it really breaks out, I am afraid that it will not stir up a shock in the court.

Li Shimin also took this into account, so his face was slightly displeased.

Wang Jue also has an explanation for this, "What is wrong with punishing corruption in the household department, raiding the house three times, and taking 50,000 yuan from it to supplement the Qing officials?" ”

This old guy was also brainwashed by Li Fangchen, how could he ask for money so justifiably before.

Li Shimin was speechless, waved his hand and said, "That's it, since he has this idea, I will follow him." ”

It's just 50,000 guan, that is, the six parts each get 50,000 guan, and he Li Shimin can afford it.

It's just a pity, now there is only the household department that can have this kind of enjoyment!

After all, people have backers!

The Ministry of Household is not like the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Rites, and if there are officials involved in corruption, it will be really a big trouble.

For Li Fangchen's year-end bonus, I am always a little dissatisfied in my heart, shouldn't he be allowed to do it as his father?

Thinking about it, he moved the "Household Management Plan" that he had been holding for a long time in front of him, dozens of them, and began to look through them one by one.

After a while, he couldn't help but say, "No! Can't let this kid win people's hearts! ”

Liu Sancheng hurriedly walked into the hall, "Your Majesty, Second Highness, His Highness"

"What?"

"He's changed the household."

"Changed?"

Put down the Chinese manuscript, arrange for someone to prepare the car, and rush to the household department.

Outside the household department, Wang Jue stood at the door, unwilling to move.

"Your Highness, you wrote this?"

Li Fangchen shook his head, "Old man Yan wrote it." ”

Yan Shigu on the side looked unhappy, "Wang Jue, you can't recognize the old man's words?" ”

Wang Jue shook his head and sighed: "The word is yours and true, but this article is probably related to His Royal Highness." ”

Li Fangchen was amused and couldn't help but smile, "Let's go, let's go and have a look first." ”

The first feeling was that the household department was going to do a happy event, and Wang Jue was dumbfounded when he came in.

"Your Highness, are you planning to marry the household?"

The corners of Li Fangchen's mouth twitched, obviously he didn't expect Wang Jue to have this kind of thought.

"It's old, dress it up, and it also makes the household a little happy, isn't it?"

"I don't know."

This is another precedent, when has the household been so lively?

Yan Shigu walked straight to the side and sat down, "I can't see it on weekdays, but now it's an eye-opener." ”

On the table was a wooden basket filled with washed fruit.

Yan Shigu was not polite, grabbed one, and tasted it.

Wang Jue couldn't help but hurriedly said: "This is our household!" ”

Yan Shigu didn't look at it, and took a sip of Wang Jue, "It's not all prepared by His Royal Highness King Qin, and it has nothing to do with you, an old guy." ”

Wang Qi was angry, stepped forward to grab it, and the result obviously underestimated Yan Shigu's shamelessness.

"Why don't you just eat your two fruits?"

casually stuffed a few more into his arms, and Yan Shigu gave up.

Li Fangchen covered his head on the side, a little helpless, "In a few days, this king will send someone to Yan's house." ”

Yan Shigu smiled and squinted, "Thank you, Your Highness." ”

Outside, the carriage and horses rattled, and the attendants were heard shouting, "Your Majesty has arrived." ”

The three of them walked out of Datang and moved to the door.

Li Shimin and Wang Qi's previous image were exactly the same, staring at a couplet at the gate.

Write a horizontal criticism: admonish a colleague. It made him laugh and praise him.

"Wait, meet Your Majesty!"

"Son, meet Your Majesty!"

"Excuse me."

Very happy, patted Li Fangchen on the shoulder as a reward, and then pulled Wang Qi to the inner hall.

He also asked Yan Shigu very curiously, "Why are you here?" ”

Yan Shigu hurriedly said: "Your Highness asked the old minister to write the couplet. ”

"You wrote this couplet?"

"Your Highness's words."

"Yes, the words are very good!" （）
