As soon as the edict came out, there was an uproar.

The vast majority of people are satisfied with their whereabouts, such as Yang Cha, who is simply stunned to be able to stay in Beijing to supervise the imperial history. It was that Tang Qing who also got the official position of Sima of Shaozhou on Jinghu South Road, and did not go far to the border. Of course, Zeng Gong's exam results were not good, and he had no place in the state-level position, so he only became the head of Tu County in Taiping Prefecture.

But Fang Zhong Yonggui is the first first, why did he go to Taizhou? You must know that Taizhou at this time is by no means a "developed coastal city" in later generations, but is actually a barren land under the jurisdiction of Liangzhejiang Road, with thieves and people's livelihood, which is a bit similar to Meizhou, which is often used as a place for distribution and debasement.

The sentence to Taizhou was actually requested by Fang Zhongyong himself.

Yesterday, after Zhao Zhen went down to the court, he specially sent someone to Xuan Fang Zhongyong into the palace to inquire about two things.

First, where did he think of being an official?

Fang Zhongyong originally wanted to go to Xining and Lanzhou on Qinfeng Road. If it is not good, you will have to go to Gyeongju or Yan'an Mansion on Yongxing Military Road. These four places are all at the junction with the Western Xia and Qingtang Dynasty, and the so-called "land of the four wars" is also.

Speaking of Xiang Yanshu, he got a "good and ambitious" evaluation; said to Yan Rongyue that he was evaluated as "not hysteria"; Speaking of Zeng Gong, Zeng Gong praised "A good man is ambitious in all directions".

finally entered the palace and talked to Zhao Zhen, who had the most right to speak.

Zhao Zhen didn't say anything, Chen Lin said, "Where is the majesty of the Heavenly Family?" It was rejected abruptly. It's really that the emperor is not in a hurry, and the eunuch is in a hurry! You are a man who is not a man, how can you understand the heroism of "fame but take it right away"?

Seeing Fang Zhongyong looking at him with expectant eyes, Zhao Zhen smiled and said, "The new champion is an official in the border area, and there is no precedent in my dynasty. If you are told by someone who doesn't know the inside story, you still think that I want to belittle you! If you really have the ambition of Ban Dingyuan, you can stay in Beijing for a few years, be a secretary of the eight products, and be in charge of proofreading the classics and publishing the correct text.

Don't be too small, Uncle Yan Tong is also the first official to be awarded this official. I can grant you another Longtu Pavilion to be prepared, and enter and exit the attendants for advisors. It's really a noble official position! ”

To say that Zhao Zhen's arrangement is actually quite generous, it can even be said that the emperor's grace is immense. Don't look at these positions, the grades are not high, and they don't have any real power, and the specific work is relatively vague.

But what kind of person gets promoted the fastest? Not the most talented, there are many capable people, how old are you? It is not necessarily the best at whiskers and horses, as long as the emperor is not particularly mediocre, he still likes (needs) capable people, and the "ministers" are just equivalent to the identity of pets. But the person who often serves the emperor and can play with the emperor and give advice must be the fastest to be promoted. In the Ming and Qing dynasties, there were many people who went straight to the cabinet from Hanlin to the cabinet, which is the reason.

However, Fang Zhongyong was unwilling to accompany the emperor to play in the palace, nor was he willing to become a master of office governance who was "an expert in fighting insiders and outsiders in fighting outside". It seems that the slogans are shouted loudly all day long, but the picture is just to pull two more pieces of meat into his own bowl, which is actually useless for the country and the people. (See the behavior of the Donglin Party members, and you can see that the slag did not have firewood.) ）

After pondering for a while, Fang Zhongyong asked: "Does the official family know the allusion of 'why not eat minced meat'?" ”

Zhao Zhen deserved to be a benevolent monarch, and he didn't think that Fang Zhongyong was sarcastic about him and clicked Fang Zhongyong, but just smiled and said: "Emperor Jin Hui's stupidity, how can you not know?" What does Fang Qing's family mean? ”

Fang Zhongyong hurriedly asked: "The minister has no other intentions, please let the official know!" It's just that Emperor Jin Hui is a little uneven! ”

Chen Lin said: "That Emperor Hui of Jin was born dull and pretended to be smart, so that when the Eight Kings Rebellion started, he himself became a puppet and was finally poisoned. What's the grievance? ”

Fang Zhongyong said in his heart, "You talk a lot", and just saluted Zhao Zhen and said, "Let's take the matter of 'why not eat minced meat'." A child who grew up in the hands of a woman in the deep palace knows the difference between millet and minced meat. In his opinion, it's just a difference in taste. In this story, there are actually two groups of people who play dishonorable roles.

One is the minister next to him. Don't these ministers know the difference between millet and minced meat? Isn't there anyone who can come up with a good way to help the victims? Not really. So why does an emperor who does not know the suffering of the world become synonymous with stupidity when he speaks his mind? Because those people want their emperor to be a fool, so that they can manipulate and exploit it.

The second is a group of people who preach this matter. Come and see, how stupid this emperor is! Is such a man worthy to be our emperor? Do you want to consider a new emperor? This is why there is the Rebellion of the Eight Kings, and this is the afterword of being poisoned! ”

Zhao Zhen asked: "Does the Qing family want to persuade me to know more about the people's suffering, so as not to be deceived by others?" ”

Fang Zhongyong waved his hand and said: "The official family is diligent in political affairs, and the princes of the court and the central government are also many loyal people. Where to start? The minister just wanted to explain that even if he was a magistrate, he couldn't learn from Emperor Hui of the Jin Dynasty. Not only can they not know the suffering of the people, but they are also deceived by the officials, and they have no heart to love the people, and they are just a laughing stock. ”

Zhao Zhen sighed: "Aiqing's words are not without the meaning of persuasion. He waved his hand to stop Fang Zhongyong's explanation, and said, "It has been more than ten years since I ascended the throne at the age of thirteen. Not to mention trembling, walking on thin ice, it is also a long-awaited sigh, and I dare not have a trace of fatigue. The civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty all said that I was merciful, but I didn't understand that the so-called mercy was just another way of saying it was indecisive.

Some people even advocate that today is a prosperous age, Fang Zhongyong, do you think it is a prosperous age? Not really.

I know that I have no talent and no virtue, and if it weren't for the early death of my five elder brothers, I wouldn't have been able to inherit the throne anyway. I also want to cover the three emperors and five emperors, and defeat the Han Wu and Tang Sects, but I grew up in the deep palace since I was a child, and all I saw were women and eunuchs. Although he was taught by the first emperor, he was not extravagant, and he had planted a few ridges of millet with his own hands, but his impression of Li Shu actually only came from the secret reports of the Imperial City Division. I heard that there is a joke among the people that I use a gold hoe to hoe the ground, but it is not a rumor, my hoe is really gold! What is the difference between me and Emperor Hui of the Jin Dynasty? ”

Chen Lin persuaded: "The official family is hungry late at night, and they are reluctant to drink even a bowl of mutton soup, which is really a virtuous gentleman through the ages!" Don't be presumptuous! ”

Zhao Zhen said angrily: "You dog, you also want to deceive me." What kind of virtuous gentleman am I, is there a virtuous gentleman who is not prosperous? ”

Although Chen Lin is in charge of all the affairs in the palace, including which concubine the emperor favors is by his side, he really can't help with the emperor's birth of a son? I could only watch Fang Zhongyong, who could "help", ask for help.

Fang Zhongyong is actually very helpless, if you can't help casually, you will die! Second, according to the saying that good people have good rewards, Zhao Zhen, who is known as the first benevolent monarch of the ages, should be full of descendants. But I don't know what's going on, Zhao Zhen, who got married at the age of fifteen, still doesn't even have a child. Although he has a cold relationship with the deposed Empress Guo, and the number of times Dunlun may not be much, there is not only one woman in the palace, but the beauty and beauty are not less favored by Zhao Zhen. As a result, there was not even an egg. So that after nine years of marriage, let alone the prince, there is not even a princess. Otherwise, Empress Dowager Yang would not have brought King Pu's son into the palace to raise her.

Fang Zhongyong understood Zhao Zhen's mood at this time.

So many pampered beauties have not given birth to children, and the problem can only lie with Zhao Zhen. In the monogamous families of later generations, there are not a few people who are out of the wall and divorced due to male infertility. And if a man is infertile, it is like being labeled with shame, and he will not be able to hold his head up for the rest of his life.

It is estimated that Zhao Zhen's body is not in serious trouble, which can be seen from the birth of Princess Fukang a few years later. But it's still that sentence, I don't know what's going on, three princes and eight princesses died early among the children born to Zhao Zhen in the future, which is really sad.

After feeling sorry for Zhao Zhen in his heart, Fang Zhongyong comforted: "The official family is in the prime of life, and the dragon is healthy, and the heirs will definitely be prosperous." As long as you recuperate carefully, you will definitely be able to educate the dragon as soon as possible! I'm afraid that the official family will have too many children and won't be able to hold it! ”

Zhao Zhen reluctantly smiled: "Speaking of children, I almost forgot one thing. You had the banner of 'Lianzhong Six Yuan, the official family gave marriage' before, and now you have Lianzhong Six Yuan, which can be the first person in hundreds of years, and I naturally want to accomplish your good deeds. You say, what do you want me to give this marriage, I can't refuse it! ”

Fang Zhongyong almost cried, you can remember the second thing that asked me to enter the palace. Aren't we working hard to clear the customs level by level and fight monsters just to marry Bai Fumei, and by the way, do some small things that benefit the country and the people?

Fang Zhongyong hurriedly thanked and said, "Xie Guan's family is complete!" The minister didn't dare to ask for too much, but hoped that the official family would give the Yan family and the Wang family the position of equal wives. ”

Zhao Zhen was embarrassed: "This so-called flat wife is just a folk saying in the former Tang Dynasty, but the government has never recognized it." If I had come forward, wouldn't it have broken the laws of the country? Even if I can make an exception for you, have you ever thought about who will have children who will be the descendants of the main house in the future, and who will inherit the shade? ”

Fang Zhongyong said: "They are all their own children, and it is really inappropriate to divide them into concubines." As for the shadow supplement, only the most unproductive children will inherit it, and those who have the ability will see the glory of the father's generation in their eyes. Please give the government a decree! ”

Zhao Zhen nodded and said, "Since you have thought about it, I am not a villain in vain." Chen Lin, intended purpose: the system said, there is a Yan daughter, virtuous and virtuous, both virtuous and honorable, and she was ordered to marry Fang Zhongyong, the court, as his wife, and he was awarded the title of six products; Today, there is a Wang daughter, virtuous and virtuous, IKEA and a room, and she was ordered to marry Fang Zhongyong, who was married to Fang Zhongyong, and was sealed with seven pleasant products. This system! ”

Chen Lin carefully drafted, and asked Zhao Zhen to use the official seal after the imperial review.

Seeing that Fang Zhong was never puzzled, Chen Lin explained: "This is a private matter, you can't call it an edict, you can only say that it is a system, and the jade seal can't be used, you can only use the official private seal." It's always been like this, Master Fang don't mind. And because it is the private seal of the official family, there is no need for the public to discuss in the political affairs hall, and the official family can make a decision. Lest someone obstruct indiscriminately and have twists and turns in life!

As for the difference in the grades of the two ladies, it is also common. Lord Yan is a governor of political affairs, and since his daughter's rank cannot be higher than that of the Wang daughter, if the identity is the same again, I am afraid that Lord Yan will not like it. It's a little higher than the grade of the Yan woman! This is all because the officials are afraid of your embarrassment, so they take special care of you! ”

Fang Zhongyong pursed his lips and said in his heart: We are married for the first time, and we have no experience, unlike Zhao Zhen, the eldest wife has changed, and he still wants to straighten out the junior. It's not a thing. As far as Wei'er's personality is concerned, I'm afraid that this low-headed thing is not easy to fool!
