Duan Xiushi continued, "The ministry set your merit for this year's exam to be middle and upper, and last year's exam was set to be lower and upper, but it is said that it has also been corrected now, so the merit for two years is above average." Then Duan Xiushi paused, "Congratulations to Yisong for his promotion to the eighth grade and try Dali to evaluate things." In addition, before Gao Yue could react, Duan Xiushi added, "The new emperor practiced Zuo, and specially sent an edict to the Jingyuan Military Mansion, asking Yi Song to return to Beijing, so he moved to supervise the imperial history, which means that Yi Song, you can no longer stay in the Jingyuan Military Mansion......

After speaking, Duan Xiushi took out the envelope and handed it to Gao Yue's hand.

When you go back to Beijing, can't you stay in Jingyuan?

This state of affairs is changing a little too quickly.

And the strange official name of the supervising imperial history is actually a combination of the words "supervising the imperial history" and "lixing".

Gao Yue had previously learned when transcribing the Shinto inscriptions that supervising the imperial history could be said to be a very important purifying official (why, in the end, did you want me to go back to be this kind of purifying official?). I want to farm), but it is the lowest rank in the three courtyards of the Imperial History Tower: the Imperial History is from the sixth grade, the Imperial History in the palace is from the seventh grade, and the Supervision Imperial History is from the eighth grade.

But the Tang people look at official positions and do not judge them by grade, especially the Yushitai, although the rank is not high, but they are all first-class noble officials, because they are in charge of the "Fengxian" and are the emperor's closest eyes and ears. For example, in the early Tang Dynasty, Wei Xuan originally served as the secretary of Yongzhou to join the army, and he was under the seventh grade, and later entered the imperial court. ”

Therefore, even if it is on the eighth grade, Li Shi recruited Gao Yue into the Yushi Terrace, which can be regarded as a big overmove, so in order to avoid criticism, Li Shi added a "lixing" to Gao Yue.

In the line, to put it bluntly, he is even a "foreign official" of the Yushitai.

As the name suggests, the foreign official is an "official outside the regular member", with a strong "informal temporary worker" color (but note that the foreign official is different from the foreign official, and in the Tang Dynasty, the foreign official was already a standard official in Shangshu Province, and it was a beautiful position), usually used to depose officials: the emperor demoted you to "XX external staff", then you can only get half of the salary, and there is no job field rice.

But sometimes, the emperor wants to use a young man (such as our protagonist Gao Yue), but because his qualifications are too shallow, he will let him take on a position such as "supervising the imperial history", that is, supervising the work of the imperial history, but the salary is worse than that of the main member, and he will consider becoming a regular after he is senior.

"Servant...... Jingyuan's tuntian and camping fields, servants still want to do it themselves. Hearing this, Gao Yue's mind didn't turn around all of a sudden.

As long as he returns to Beijing and goes to the Yushi Terrace, then won't the grand plan of "counterattacking Yuanzhou" that Duan Xiushi talked about just now come to naught in a blink of an eye?

Duan Xiushi smiled a little bitterly and told Gao Yue another piece of news: "In the imperial court, Zhongshu Men and Sinong Temple sent an order at the same time, and the envoys of each town must take the sale of troops as their own responsibility, so Yi Song's plan to increase the number of troops in the camp and expand the military cantonment was actually vetoed. ”

"Why, why!" When Gao Yue heard the news, his eyes darkened, his head fainted, and he almost fell in front of Duan Xiushi.

He didn't understand, a full year of hard work, he and the camp field athletes together to erect piles, ram earth, build walls, manufacture equipment, almost every day to inspect the camp, the emperor lived up to his wishes, this year has achieved great results, not only for the imperial court to save more than 100,000 yuan of money, but also for the Jingyuan camp to increase tens of thousands of stone of military food reserves, as long as this continues, Yuan Zai and Liu Yan are focused on (although these two are mortal enemies in the end) the northwest frontier to run a counteroffensive business, will definitely usher in the dawn of success!

Therefore, he wanted to continue to stay in the military palace, although he could not fight in person, but he could work with the soldiers of the Anxi camp to use his own talents to make contributions in logistics and planning.

But Duan Xiushi explained to him, no, it's not so much an explanation as a relief, "Yi Song, think calmly, increase the number of troops in the camp by 10,000, and this great plan can be successful." Therefore, the burden of increasing the burden of 120,000 stone rice grain and 70,000 pieces of cloth to the imperial court in a year is only fixed, and there is also the 'reward and gift' of these 10,000 soldiers. ”

"Under the festival! However, once the mixed cultivation of rice and wheat is implemented in Jingshui Liangyuan, the income per mu of land will increase, and the income will be far greater than the expenditure, not to mention the significance for Kefu Prefecture! Gao Yue became more and more excited when he spoke, and he couldn't help but support the floor with his arms, his fists clenched around his neck and stretched forward, staring at Duan Xiushi, his emotions almost uncontrollable.

"Yi Song, you say it, I understand it all. However, the imperial court has the idea of the imperial court, and it is easy to increase the number of soldiers by 10,000, but it is difficult to reduce it again. If the tuntian suffers from floods and droughts, the rice and grain will be reduced due to the poor harvest, but the expenditure on the number of soldiers will not be reduced, and the burden of the imperial court will be heavier, so ......"

Speaking of this, Duan Xiushi didn't continue, because when he saw the young man in front of him, his eyes began to turn red, and there were tears rolling in it.

"Let's go back to Beijing, Yisong. This section commander knows that it is very selfish to say this, at the beginning, it was this section commander himself who built the door, so that you gave up the rich materials and ringgit of other towns, and came to my Jingyuan, after you came to the blue wisps of the road, opened up a hundred springs and 800 hectares of fertile land to enrich the army food, these soldiers of the military camp will not forget, but now it is this section commander who advises you to go back. Yi Song...... The new emperor should value you, as you said to me before, when you take over the authority of the country, win the trust of the Holy Lord, and become the ambassador of the military government Fang Yue and Yingtian, if I Duan Xiushi can still move around at that time, we will work together again to realize this ambition! ”

Gao Yue's eyes were already blurry, and his heart was uncomfortably sore until the tip of his nose, but he couldn't cry in front of Duan Xiushi.

In the past, when he read aloud in history books, when he read about those ancients who were unambitious and uneven, he also naively laughed at their hypocrisy, but now this hammer is firmly in his heart, and he knows that everything in this world is not easy!

"The ...... of the festival" Gao Yue bowed his head and bowed to Duan Xiu in farewell, trying not to let tears flow.

Duan Xiushi also rolled up his sleeves and bowed to Gao Yue uprightly, "Yisong Xiaoyou, take care of yourself after returning to Beijing, you can ...... hard."

In the main hall of the military government, the two worshiped each other for a long time.
