Chapter 481: Sacrificial Wine
The yellow finches were chirping outside, and the willows in the courtyard of the county guard's inn had already pulled out their buds, and spring had arrived.
Xiao He, as usual, got up early in the morning, but found that Cao Shen and Liu Ji, who lived next door to him, were nowhere to be found......
It's been two days since I came to Jimo, and Xiao He is a little embarrassed.
Cao Shen was transferred to Jiaodong as an official by Heifu in accordance with the procedure, and has now been appointed as the "thief Cao Youshi", with a rank ratio of 200 stones, and is the right-hand man of the thief Cao Peng, specializing in thieves and public security. He had happily dressed in his new official uniform, put on a half-pass seal, and went to work.
As for Liu Ji, in order to save his life, he had to confess his guilt to Heifu, but Heifu also showed his "generosity", did not hold on to the events of the year, and angrily bypassed Liu Ji's life.
But the strange thing is that after sending Xiao He and Cao Shen into the room that day, Heifu left Liu Ji alone in the courtyard, and afterwards, Liu Ji's cheeks were pale and his forehead was full of cold sweat. From then on, when it came to Heifu, he was cautious, not daring to show half of his presumptuousness, and from time to time he turned his head sharply to look outside the house, becoming suspicious, not at all like him usual, as if he was frightened by something.
Heifu didn't plan to let Liu Ji go, but let Liu Ji stay for the time being, and became the doorman of the county guard, entertaining him with good wine and meat every day, and inspecting the Jimo warehouse and the treasury with him......
Xiao He was a little puzzled: "Gong Lu also said that this Liu Ji is bold, the law and coercion can't frighten him, and the catastrophe is coming, but he can still think about the bride after the marriage and sleeps before leaving, what did the Jiaodong county guard say to him that day?" ”
couldn't figure it out, Xiao He walked around inside and outside the yard and found that everyone was busy, but he was bored.
He was cautious, and Peixian did not rashly resign, but took a month's leave. On the surface, he accompanied Liu Ji to make amends, and by the way, he thanked Heifu for his "grace of lifting". But now that the matter is done, Heifu didn't let him go, and only asked Xiao He to stay for a few days, and let Chen Ping accompany him around the city, but he didn't care about Xiao He.
This is obviously a strategy to capture the past, but Xiao He is still very uncomfortable, things have come to this point, if he takes the initiative to ask to stay in Jiaodong, it will seem to be the first rat at both ends, if he goes back, then what is the point of him running this trip?
The only step is that Hefu took the initiative to invite him......
Fortunately, Heifu didn't hang him for too long, and at noon, after returning from the inspection of the arsenal, he called Xiao He over, and after talking some nonsense, he handed over a letter to Xiao He's case.
Xiao He looked at it, but it was a reply letter from the Surabaya County Warden and the Warden Yushi to Heifu, and the general content of the letter was that if Xiao He was willing, he could be seconded to the Jiaodong County Warden for half a year.
Xiao He had already expected it, but he still asked knowingly: "Wei Junshou, what does this mean?" ”
Heifu also simply opened the skylight and said brightly: "Xiao Jun's talent, famous in Surabaya, was unwilling to go to Xianyang to take up his post, or felt that the road was far away, once he became an official, it would be three years and five years, and he didn't know the return date." ”
"But Jiaodong is different, if it is fast, it only takes half a month to return to Fengpei to take care of his family. Therefore, when I left Pei County, I took it upon myself to send a letter to Surabaya County, wanting to seconded you to Jiaodong. ”
Heifu got up and pretended to be worried: "You have been here for a few days, and you have also seen that although Jiaodong has been a county for several years, there has been no progress in governance. Xiao Jun also said that his parents are here, and he will not travel far, but there is another sentence in the back, there must be a way to travel! Since there is no objection to you being an official outside the family, why don't you stay for another half a year and help me govern one side, how about it? ”
At this time, Xiao He can't leave if he wants to.
At this time, if he refuses again, it will be too ignorant to lift, so that both sides can't get off the stage, Xiao He can only make a hesitant appearance first, and finally nod his head in agreement, make a moving gesture, and bow down:
"The county guard has repeatedly refuted Xiao He, why don't you dare to resign, I will do my best to assist the county guard to govern the county......"
At this time, it was the acting skills that he was fighting, and Heifu went down to help him up, laughing and said: "With the help of Xiao and Cao Erjie, I won't worry about no one available." ”
Heifu asked people to open a brown sugar shop in Pei County, in addition to Liu Ji, Xiao He is also an important target, Xiao He's resume he knows clearly: when Xiao He was in Chu State, he was a small official in Fengyi, after Qin set up Pei County, although Xiao He was in his thirties, he took the initiative to ask for admission as a disciple. In the school, he showed the demeanor of a scholar, and soon he was able to speak fluently Guanzhong Yayan, and he also mastered Qin Seal and Qin Li......
Later, he won the first place in the school and served as an adjutant, and was selected by Pei County to be a "harmless scholar".
The harmless person is said to be able to be flawless for the document, which is equivalent to the secretary of the county magistrate in later generations, what leader's speech, and the document written to the county and the court, all written by Xiao He. Because the documents he wrote were simple and logical, and he was deeply loved by Pei Ling, he promoted Xiao He and made him the chief official Peng, in charge of government personnel work. The people promoted by Xiao He are all virtuous, and those who are deposed are all mediocre people, and everyone praises them, so they won the first place in the year-end assessment of Surabaya County.
So Heifu knew that Xiao He was currently the best at and most experienced was clerical and personnel.
The job he arranged for Xiao He was also about to come out.
"I want to use you as a sacrificial wine for the county! Rank 200 stones! ”
……
"Sacrificial wine?"
Xiao He has been mixed in the Qin Dynasty system for many years, and he knows all the county positions of the Qin Dynasty, but the position of sacrificial wine sounds extremely unfamiliar.
Recall, on the contrary, I heard the Qi people who passed by Pei County in the past say that there is a sacrificial wine under Linzi Jixia, and he is responsible for managing the school palace, and Xunzi has been a sacrificial wine three times.
Now, a few years after the destruction of Jixia, this name has been carried out by Heifu again!
Heifu bowed: "You should also know that the first thing I did when I came to Jimo was to issue a decree to promote the Dharma and save punishments. To this end, two schools were set up, and they wanted to recruit the eldest sons of the wealthy families in the county to enroll, beautify and educate, and change customs. However, I am busy with government affairs, and I am not skilled, so I want to make people serve as priests in public schools, and to teach justice, and to select those who have excelled in examinations in the school to serve as officials. This is the first thing I want to do well in Jiaodong, it must be done by those who learn poetry and books, and I must be discerning about people, except for Xiao Jun, there is really no suitable candidate. ”
Heifu had already made a suggestion to the Imperial History Office, and the Qin Dynasty had three elders in the township, but at the county level, there was no special person in charge of education, and the county Cheng and Ling Cao were in charge.
Since he was determined to save education in his hands, Heifu naturally wanted to seize power from the county, so he suggested that under the county guard, "county festival wine" and "county festival wine" should be added.
If it is a military school, Heifu will definitely have to do it himself, but he is only teaching local officials, so there is no need for this.
This is the first thing Heifu decided to do in Jiaodong, and it is also related to the "Lixin" of him and Chen Ping, so it must be presided over by a talented person.
By the way, this matter seems to be important, but it has no real power, and you can also try Xiao He's ability: Heifu will not judge a person casually because of his historical reputation.
"Why is the county guard committee so heavy, how dare you not do your best......"
Xiao He supported the local snake in Pei County, in order to protect himself in the future, the plan has been shattered, and he has to stay in Jiaodong. He could only hold on helplessly, and in this case, he wanted to let Hefu see his talents......
So before Xiao He went to Jiaodong Public School to sacrifice wine, he raised a question that he had noticed but Heifu had ignored.
Xiao He said: "The county monarch wants to teach the law, so that the customs of Jiaodong are new, and it is necessary to recruit the children of rich families to enroll, but if you don't do another thing at the same time, I'm afraid it will be half the result...... This matter is not obvious in Qindi and Nanjun, but in Kanto, especially in Qidi, it must not be ignored! ”
Hefu became interested: "Oh! What is it? I would like to hear about it. ”
Xiao He has been in the officialdom for several years, and the official education on Fengpei's side is also a mess, except for people like him and Cao Shen who are willing to join the system, the school has little role, and there is only one reason......
Xiao He said with a smile: "I heard that Qin Shangjun wants to start a public war, so he first forbids private fighting. If the county wants to learn the law and teach the law, it must first ban private learning! ”
