The New Year is approaching, after the rest day, the Tang officials will continue to be busy for seven days, and then on the eighth day to participate in the Zhenguan four-year Zhengdan court, and then after that, it will be a half-month annual leave.

In fact, at this time of year, almost ninety percent of the departments spend their time drinking tea and chatting, and only the household department is busy, and the busy feet do not touch the ground.

Due to their special tasks and functions, the household department is destined to be unable to be idle like other yamen, and they also need to sort out some accounts for this year, especially in terms of verification, which can be a headache.

Early in the morning, the head of the household department hurriedly returned to the household department to preside over the work after the court meeting.

Glimpsing that the latest issue of Datang Daily was left on the desk and no one cared about it, Dai Zhou suddenly remembered that this issue of the newspaper seemed to have his own article.

Dai Xuan is not too clear about the specific situation, but he only knows that this article was handed over a month ago, and the reply ten days ago will be published in this issue of the newspaper.

Seeing that everyone was busy and there was nothing to do, he picked up the newspaper and read it.

The headline on the front page is naturally an article written by Li Shimin himself, mainly about the summary of the next year, as well as the outlook for the coming year, and finally congratulate the people on a happy new year.

Now Li Shimin also likes to be in the newspaper, and usually the first issue of the newspaper every month will publish an article by Li Shimin, and occasionally an issue will be added.

Although it seems to be chicken, for Datang officials, it is the only channel that can intuitively understand the emperor's intentions, and even many people stare at the Datang newspaper to figure out the holy will.

Soon, Dai Xuan saw his own article in the newspaper, mainly explaining the difficulties of the work of the household department, as well as a lot of tedious and boring helplessness, but there is no way to make mistakes, and even confided in some ideas about reforming the household department.

In fact, these are some temptations, and a household secretary is not yet capable of reforming the household system.

Then, Dai Zhou was surprised to find that about one-third of the entire newspaper was devoted to advertising.

In the past, the ad was about one-fifth the length of the advertisement, or only one article, but this time there were two articles.

The first article is naturally to sing praises to virtue, Wanmin cloth shop decided to give back to the old customers, before the New Day will be held prize sales activities, the purchase of a piece of cloth will get a lottery opportunity, the opportunity to get a piece of cloth rewards, the winning rate is one percent, a total of 10,000 horses!

However, after reading the second article, Dai Guan's mood instantly became cold, and he couldn't help but snort coldly and slammed the newspaper on the table.

"The old man remembers that King Zhao's money bank seems to have closed after not long in business, right?"

"That's right, there was a case of deliberate loan fraud at that time, and King Zhao may be worried that similar cases will continue to happen, so he ordered the money bank to be closed." Tobe Shilang Feng Element sorted out the information in his hand and replied.

"I heard that King Zhao wants to fight the idea of the household department?" Dai Xuan turned his head to look at the sealing element.

"Well, there is such a thing, but I blocked it back, although the household department is in charge of money, but the money is not where we want to put it." Feng Elemental nodded with a wooden expression, a little unhappy in his heart.

The whole household is busy, don't you see that I'm so busy now that I don't even have the time to look up at you?

As a head of the household, it doesn't matter if you don't help, even if you sit there drinking tea and reading the newspaper when you come, you still keep chatting with me? Is there still a conscience, is being a leader so bad?

"Hmm!" Dai Xuan hummed softly, the thoughts in his head spun rapidly, and soon, the corners of Dai Zhou's mouth rose slightly.

While everyone else was busy, Dai Zhou took out a new book of excerpts and wrote hundreds of words freely.

After carefully checking it, he nodded with satisfaction, and then summoned a small official and handed him the newly written fold: "Send it to Zhongshu Province!" ”

Although Dai Xuan is the head of the household, he does not have the power to play directly, so his performance needs to go through the process.

This process is the same throughout Datang, first sent to the Zhongshu Province for review, and the Zhongshu Province will classify it, one is what they can handle, and the other is what needs to be played.

The first category is directly discussed, and a decision will be made here on whether to approve or reject.

The second type is to send it to the emperor for the emperor to make a decision, whether it is the first category or the second category, when the decision is made, the fold will be sent to the province for review, and the province has the right to reject all the audit results, whether it is passed or rejected, as long as the province feels that there is a problem, it will be sent back for retrial, even if it is the emperor's trial.

Of course, the people in the province will not be so biao, generally speaking, even if there is a problem with the emperor's review, it is the servant who goes to the emperor to negotiate and then decide, and the face still has to be given, otherwise do you really think the emperor is a decoration?

After the ministry passes the review, it will be handed over to the Shangshu province for implementation, which is a complete set of administrative procedures, the purpose of which is to prevent arbitrariness and avoid mistakes as much as possible.

……

Zhongshu Province is a little idle at this time, at the end of the year, everyone doesn't like to find something to do for themselves, most people's minds have now flown home for the New Year, who will be idle at this time?

Fang Xuanling is also happy to be idle, all year round, and it is the most leisurely during the New Year.

"Fang Xiang, the excerpt sent by Dai Shangshu of the household department!"

"Well, put it down!" Fang Xuanling continued to look at the newspaper, in fact, he was reading the last article, an advertisement about Qian Zhuang.

As for the folds, anyway, I don't have to worry about it for a while, the excerpts that can be sent to me are all considered to belong to the second category below, and I need to go through it myself first, and make sure that it really belongs to the second category, then take it to the emperor.

On that day, Li Yuanjing personally came to the door to persuade that several old brothers took advantage of so much and it was not easy to refuse him, although he didn't know what others were doing, anyway, Fang Xuanling kept a hand, and the family's money was kept almost 10,000 yuan, and the other excess more than 80,000 yuan were deposited in the money bank.

Several of them contributed almost 300,000 yuan in savings, although Li Yuanjing said that the sky was wild, after the money was put into the account, he was a little confident in his heart, but they didn't count these creditors in their hearts, Fang Xuanling didn't dare to sleep too hard these days, and he was on guard every day, for fear that someone would suddenly run in at night and say that King Zhao had run away with the money......

With the publication of this advertisement, it also means that King Zhao is really going to start acting, no matter what, it is a good thing for Datang, provided that he wins.

Slowly putting down the newspaper, Fang Xuanling picked up Dai Xuanling's excerpt, and after opening it and reading it, a mocking smile gradually appeared on Fang Xuanling's face.

He sighed deeply, shook his head, picked up the music fold and walked towards the imperial study, muttering in a low voice: "It's really a tree that wants to be quiet and the wind doesn't stop......"
