Chapter 1075: Head Iron
On the twenty-sixth day of the first month of the ninth year of the Apocalypse (I wrote it wrong, sorry) the Yamen of the Household Department of the Capital City
Since the New Year has just passed, the officials of the various yamen have also been a little absent-minded because they have just opened the yamen, and everyone's hearts have not yet turned around from the New Year, and the household department is naturally no exception.
Today's name is Wang Yongguang, who was previously the secretary of the military department in Nanjing, and at the age of 49 this year, he has a reputation for being honest and upright, and is valued by Zhu Youxiao, so he was transferred to the capital last year to serve as the secretary of the household department.
At this time, Wang Yongguang looked at the stacks of official documents placed on the table and only felt that his head was a little swollen, for no other reason, these official documents were all reported by the yamen newspapers from all over the country to ask for the allocation of food and wages.
These documents include requests for the repair of the Yellow River dams, requests for the allocation of grain seeds, and requests for funds for the construction and resettlement of the victims.
As the secretary of the household department, Wang Yongguang had to find out the official documents that really needed to be allocated urgently and urgently, and he also had to consider how much money to be allocated and how many taels of silver were still in the treasury, and then write down the plan and submit it to the cabinet for approval.
After the cabinet approves it, it must be submitted to the inner court, which will then report to the emperor, which is the correct process.
After a long time, after Wang Yongguang reviewed all the last official documents that had been backlogged for more than half a month, he rubbed his eyes, picked up a stack of official documents that he put aside and put them in a box, picked up the box and walked out of the signing room, and said to the waiter waiting: "You and send back these official documents on the table to Wang Shilang, let him send them all back, and this official will go to the cabinet." ”
"Xia Guan understands!" The clerk hurriedly bowed and saluted.
Wang Yongguang walked out of the gate of the household department, took a sedan chair and quickly entered the palace and came to the Wenyuan Pavilion located behind the Wenhua Hall in the Donghua Gate.
In the Wenyuan Pavilion, Sun Chengzong, Han Yi and Zhu Guozhen sat behind the bookcase and buried their heads in reviewing the folds.
As the center of the empire, there are too many excerpts received every day, although the following six departments and large and small yamen have already dealt with most of them, and what can be sent to them is already an important excerpt after streamlining, but they have to deal with hundreds of excerpts every day.
Sun Chengzong put down a review of the notebook, picked up another excerpt again, looked at the cover, frowned suddenly, and said coldly: "Someone!" ”
"Lord Shousuke, the lower official is here." Soon, an officer in a green robe quickly walked up to him from the door.
Sun Chengzong pointed to this excerpt and said unhappily: "According to the rules, shouldn't this excerpt sent by the Duke of Xinguo be presented to the old man first, how can it be mixed with those ordinary excerpts?" ”
Speaking of this, he looked at the back of the fold again, the anger on his face became even stronger, and he slapped the table: "Bastard, this fold was delivered seven days ago, but it was only put on the old man's bookcase today, if it delays the military plane, how many heads do you have?" ”
The official was so frightened that he quickly knelt down: "Lord Shoufu is angry, the New Year has just passed in the past few days, and the lower official has not come to his senses for a while, he put the wrong fold, the lower official is guilty, please forgive me!" ”
"Humph!"
Sun Chengzong snorted heavily, looking at the official who was kneeling on the ground with his head down, his expression was faint, but there was a burst of anger in his heart.
Speaking of which, the matter of misplacing the fold can be big or small, at least it is just a temporary negligence, but at worst, the problem is big, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is delaying state affairs.
However, Sun Chengzong has been up and down for so many years, and the city government in his heart is naturally there, he first opened the excerpt and found that it was written by Yang Feng himself, in addition to reporting the recent battle situation, Yang Feng also said that there was something important to report to Zhu Youxiao in person, so he had to go back to the capital in person.
After reading the excerpt, Sun Chengzong knew what the hell the people below were doing, they were giving Yang Feng eye medicine.
According to the rules of the imperial court, the generals who lead the troops to fight abroad cannot return to Beijing without a will, and now they have delayed this excerpt for a few days, and when Zhu Youxiao sees this excerpt, Yang Feng may have returned to the capital.
Seeing Yang Feng who suddenly returned to Beijing, even if Zhu Youxiao didn't say it, he was definitely not happy in his heart, if such things accumulate over time, there will be more and more, and once the attack starts, these inconspicuous things on weekdays will become a fatal fuse.
Thinking of this, Sun Chengzong couldn't help but sigh secretly, in order to bring down Yang Feng, some people really do everything.
Putting down the fold, Sun Chengzong looked at the official who was kneeling on the ground and said coldly: "The important affairs of the imperial court, how can you wait for Hu Lai, you take off your official uniform and go home." ”
The official looked at Sun Chengzong with wide eyes in surprise, although he was ready to be punished, but he didn't expect it to be so serious, he suddenly became excited, and said loudly: "What...... Ge Lao ...... This ...... The lower officials are not convinced......"
"Go ahead!" Sun Chengzong didn't bother to look at him anymore, waved his hand, and two guards stood up and dragged him out......
"My lord, the lower officials are not convinced, the lower officials are not convinced......"
When the official was dragged out, Han Yi next to him sighed lightly and persuaded: "Lord Shoufu, why do you want to be angry with this kind of person, even if you remove him, the next person to replace him will not be much better, and they will still do it when they should do it." ”
"Hmph, of course the old man knows." Sun Chengzong said indifferently: "The reason why the old man did this is to tell those people that since they dare to play tricks under the old man's nose, they must be ready to meet the old man's wrath." That person must have received a lot of benefits just now, so let's just take his benefits and go back to my hometown. ”
"Alas......"
Han Yi shook his head helplessly, and said no more.
Sun Chengzong picked up a fold again and was about to open it, when he heard a rush of footsteps at the door, he frowned slightly, looked up, and saw Wang Yongguang striding in with a box.
After seeing Sun Chengzong, Wang Yongguang bowed down and said: "Lord Shoufu, the two elders, the lower officials have given the three of them a salute." ”
Sun Chengzong's impression of Wang Yongguang was still good, and when he saw him coming, he put down his fold and said with a smile: "It turned out to be Lord Wang, I don't know if Lord Wang is not working in your household yamen, why did you come here?" ”
Wang Yongguang sighed, put the box in his hand on Sun Chengzong's bookcase and arched his hand: "Three adults, this is the fold sent by the local government at the beginning of the new year, those who want grain want grain, and those who want silver want silver, but now the warehouse of the household department has long been empty, and the lower officials really have no way, so they can only be handed over to the three adults to dispose of." ”
Han Yi was a little unhappy when he heard this, and shouted: "Lord Wang, as the head of the household, these are originally your own affairs, is it possible that you can't handle them?" ”
"Yes!" Wang Yongguang nodded very honorably: "There are too many things here, and the lower officials really have no way out, so they can only ask the three pavilion elders for help." If the three elders think that it is not good for the lower officials to do things, although it is good to dispose of the lower officials. ”
"You......"
Sun Chengzong shook his head helplessly, this guy's head is too iron, right......
