Chapter 48: Jia Changchao

Xu Deshan's side has been completed, and Wang Quanzao has also put a lot of thought into Xu Deshan here.

Wang Quanzao is now with Xu Deshan, of course, otherwise Wang Quanzao will not unconditionally support Xu Deshan to build a school, for Wang Quanzao, since Xu Deshan boasted of Haikou, then how to build a school in a month is his business, it has nothing to do with him, and what he has to do now is how to reflect that he can report it as soon as he knows the rumors, and ask his boss to know the news as soon as possible.

Such opposing issues are entangled, and it is not easy to grasp the balance in it, Wang Quan thought about it for a long time, and deliberately pressed the official document that had been written for a day, after all, as a magistrate, there are many opportunities every day, where can there be rumors to know yourself, and it is not too late to learn the next day.

As for Wang Quan's wording in the official document, it naturally can't be written as Xu Deshan made up, Wang Quanzao wrote it very objectively, but Xu Deshan and others worked tirelessly to worship Fan Zhongyan in front of it, so that people can see at a glance that these two things are connected, as for the rest, it depends on Xu Deshan's ability.

So such an official letter was sent out, marked with the word urgent, and arrived in Juzhou within a day. When the name of the governor of Yanzhou is Liu Xian, it stands to reason that he can do the position of Zhizhou, Liu Xian should have some skills and experience, but Liu Xian has a problem, that is, he loves to drink, his problem is famous, and he must be drunk every day before he stops.

Drinking alcohol has never been a sin in the Song Dynasty, after all, it is a romantic gentleman, what is it called a romantic person if you don't drink, and the more you drink, the more famous you can be. Wang Quanzao, as Liu Xian's subordinate, knew about Liu Xian's problem, so this point was also used by Wang Quanzao.

Wang Quanzao's official document was sent out by pinching points, and when he arrived in Juzhou, he was already about to close the city gate, and at this time Liu Xian didn't know where to sleep, so he sent someone to take the official document, where could Liu Xian still see it, and when he got up the next day, Wang Quanzao's official document was pressed underneath.

If Liu Xian was a little diligent and dedicated, he would have seen this urgent official document the next day, but the civil servants of the Great Song Dynasty were very self-disciplined, clocking in and out of work on time, and when the hour came, they would go back to their respective homes, find their own mothers, and be busy for a day, Liu Xian didn't care what was left in the end, so he was busy drinking again, so Wang Quanzao's official document was pressed by Liu Xian for five days before it was turned out.

Seeing this official document, it was not Liu Xian, but the general judge Li Ding of Juzhou, the judge is a person who supervises the military and political affairs of a state, every time an official document is signed and issued, it must go through the hands of the judge, and it also has the responsibility of directly reporting Zhizhou, this day Li Ding was going to come to Liu Xian in the evening to have some things, but when he came today, Liu Xian had already left, Li Ding did not see Liu Xian, so he casually flipped through the official documents accumulated on Liu Xian's desk, and saw that this urgent official document sent five days ago was placed here without moving.

As the saying goes, one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers, nominally knowing the state to manage a state, but the general judgment has the right to supervise the state, such two people, usually in an opposing state, this is also the intention of setting up the general judgment, after all, mutual moderation, there is progress.

Liu Xian loves to drink, this problem is the most unsightly to Li Ding, but people commute to work on time, this is not a big mistake, if you rely on this little problem to report to the next level, you can only make people laugh at themselves.

This time Li Ding took this official letter, and the roots of Liu Xian's hatred were itching, although this Yanzhou is not a border town, but it is also close to the border, and it is now safe, if this is an urgent military letter, the Liao State has committed the border, and Liu Xian has been delayed for four days, I am afraid that the Liao army has pushed the soldiers down the city.

Li Ding opened the official document, looked at the contents, and saw that it was just a rumor in Gaoyang County that a Xuannu went down to earth, gave a child the Book of Heaven, and helped him build a school, and there were no other major problems, so he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but he still blamed Liu Xian in his heart for making a mistake and expediting the official document, what a big deal this is, Liu Xian can just ignore it like this, it is really hateful, if there is really a big event, it must cause a big disaster.

Li Ding thought about it, and was going to write this matter as a secret fold and send it to Kaifeng, but after thinking about it, although this matter said that Liu Xian was wrong, first, Liu Xian was not out of line, and secondly, the matter had little impact.

Li Ding thought about it for a while, and had an idea, since ancient times, this rumor, especially when it comes to ghosts and gods, is quite sensitive, saying that it can be big, saying that it is small or small, and he will send this official document directly to the Daimyo's mansion, if it is appeased so that the adults do not look at it, it will be fine, if it is really investigated, and Liu Xian does not know, he must tell Liu Xian to go around without eating.

Thinking of this, Li Ding hid this official document in his arms, left Liu Xian's place, returned to his residence, sealed this official document, and asked someone to send it directly to the Daimyo's mansion.

The Daimyo Mansion is the capital of Hebei Road, always in accordance with the convention, the Hebei Road pacification makes the yamen set here, governing the states of Hebei, and now the pacification makes the great famous, it is the Jia Chang Dynasty who once served as an official to participate in the governor's affairs, only because of the Qingli seven years in the gentleman's party turmoil, so under the pretext of the spring drought, natural disasters came, he asked for the removal of the governor, so he was released, in charge of Hebei Road.

Being able to pass the Jinshi examination and being an official in the court is a grade, being able to enter the capital, being an errand in an important department is a grade, and finally being able to become the top few people at the pinnacle of power is another grade.

What is the concept of participating in the governor's political affairs, according to the order of the power of the Great Song Dynasty, the assistant prime minister of the governor's political affairs is only ranked after the prime minister in charge of government affairs and the privy envoy in charge of the military and military, and the third person at the peak of power is even half a point higher than the three envoys in charge of the country's money and grain.

To be able to sit in this position, no matter what the person's party affiliation and beliefs are, it cannot be denied that this person's literary talent, prestige, means, and ability are already the leaders of the country, even if he is voluntarily dismissed from office and released to Hebei, after five or six years of such a business, he has long sorted out all the military and political affairs of the Hebei Road, and just the name of Jia Changchao can make the officials of Hebei bow down and dare not disobey.

The official document was sent from Juzhou, all the way non-stop, and it took three days to reach the Daimyo's Mansion, and when the Daimyo's Mansion messenger went straight to the Yamen to pacify the envoy, he was dumbfounded, and it turned out that at this time the Privy Council recruited Jia Changchao to enter Beijing to inquire about the military.

This is also a little embarrassing, if Jia Changchao goes to other places to inspect, no matter where he goes, the messenger can ask the place clearly, ride a horse to chase, the horse can always be faster than the sedan chair, but the people appeased the adult to go to the capital, you still dare to chase from here? You don't even have a courier, do you dare to chase it to the Privy Council?

Of course, with the officialdom of the Song Dynasty, it is not enough to say that no one cares about this official document, Jia Changchao is gone, and there are a group of staff under him, but these staff members took the official document and opened it, they were dumbfounded, although they followed Jia Changchao to deal with the major events on Hebei Road, but there is no problem with these people on official business, and there are rules and precedents for how to deal with them, they can sign and approve it first, and then report it after Jia Changchao returns, but the arrival of the gods is still too sensitive, these people, look at me, I look at you, and no one dares to take this idea.

The staff, although he has an official position and takes a salary, is actually not an official selected by the imperial court, but Jia Changchao himself reported, the grade is also seven, eight or nine grades, all the work is to assist Jia Changchao, record staff officers, etc., when Jia Changchao was there, someone was in charge, and nothing was obvious, but when Jia Changchao left, these people suddenly couldn't make up their minds.

There is no way, this matter can only be decided when Jia Changchao returns, and when Jia Changchao comes back can only depend on how long the Privy Council wants to keep Master Jia.

Obviously, the emperor and the Privy Council still like Lord Jia very much, Jia Changchao has been going for more than a month, after all, he can enjoy the prosperity of Kyoto, who wants to return to this northern land, and when Jia Changchao returned to the Daimyo's Mansion, the official document about Gaoyang County had been placed for twenty days.

Jia Changchao finally came back, this adult did not say anything else, he still attached great importance to government affairs, and after he came back, he found the staff and asked about this month's government affairs, of course, the staff were the first to tell Jia Changchao about the affairs of Gaoyang County.

It can be seen that Master Jia's trip to the capital is good, and he still smiled when he heard the news, and his subordinates couldn't understand the meaning of this official document, but how could Jia Changchao, who had been the third-in-command of national officials, not see that Wang Quan had already written the cause and effect relationship so clearly without leaving a trace on the official document, and in the end, he still had to highlight his political achievements after taking office, and it was clearly an official document, in fact, this was asking for credit from his superiors.

This kind of situation is not new in Jia Changchao's experience, compared to the Yellow River flood, which has been a headache for many years, he didn't take this matter to heart at all. After Jia Changchao looked at the general content, he casually turned the first page, if there was no other content behind, the matter would have passed, but when Jia Changchao turned the second page, Jia Changchao was suddenly attracted by the picture above.

This picture is the original sketch of the school drawn by Xu Deshan, originally Wang Quanzao just wanted to copy a pair, but no matter how he copied it, he did not have the ability to draw by Xu Deshan, so Wang Quanzao simply took Xu Deshan's original picture and attached it to the back of the official document.

Jia Changchao saw this picture, suddenly frowned, and then looked at the back of a few photos, each time, his expression was a little serious, and he pondered for a long time, Jia Changchao picked up the pen and criticized it in the back: Check it in person with the order of Juzhou, and judge its authenticity.

Jia Changchao put down his pen and asked someone to receive and send the official document to the messenger to bring it back, while he stood up and instructed left and right: "Come here, prepare the carriage and horses, and go to Gaoyang County for a walk." ”
