Chapter 37 Pai Ya

Yidu County Ya will be on time every day. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Pai Ya is also called 'Little Shang Dynasty'. The official family ascended to the court in the Jinluan Hall in the capital, and the county magistrates went to the court in the local county government.

There is a joke circulating in the officialdom of the Great Song Dynasty, saying that the foreign official and the Beijing official met, and the foreign official said: "I love the Beijing official and have a tooth card." Jingguan said: "I love foreign officials more." It can be seen that many officials like the feeling of sitting in the palace of the court.

Although the county government is a typical snail shell dojo, there are many county masters who still like to enjoy this feeling of being like a court hall, and they never get tired of trying it. Song Yu, the magistrate of Yidu County, and Song Daling are among them.

Every day, Yidu County's yabang fires cannons, and Yidu County's county officials, county lieutenants, chief bookkeepers, county school teachings, post officers, and tax supervisors ...... These sesame mung bean officials wearing black yarns, as well as the officials of the sixth room and the head of the third class of officials, all stood in the second hall in different classes.

When the second bang was struck, the hall drum sounded, and a long man came out and sang: "The great order has been promoted!" ”

Song Zhixian took a square step at this time, turned out from behind the screen of the 'Sea Sunrise', and sat down behind the big case in the second hall.

All the officials bowed in unison and chanted, "Meet the Great Order!" ”

Song Zhixian shouted to excuse himself and invited a group of miscellaneous officials to sit down. The officials and team leaders are not qualified to sit, so they can only stand and listen to the old man's speech.

The eldest lord said above, but the officials looked at their noses and noses, and their hearts were distracted...... I just hope that this row of officials will end quickly, so that they can go back to their respective offices, and then use their subordinates to show their prestige.

This kind of county yashen is just a ceremony, just like the national dynasty. Serious official business is generally a case exchange or a separate face-to-face discussion. Only those that have made a resolution will be published here.

After greeting and saying a few clichΓ©s, Song Zhixian asked the officials, is there something to do?

Seeing that everyone didn't speak, he bowed his head slightly, and the elders around him immediately sang: "Retire!" ”

The officials hurriedly got up and bowed their hands: "Congratulations to the order." ”

For many sharp and enterprising young officials, they hate this kind of formalism, but for Song Zhixian, they are very addicted to "Pai Ya".

Song Yu is a jinshi of the Renwu branch in the second year of Qingli, and he was forty-two years old when he was a jinshi, and he successively served as the chief secretary of Dongming County and the Cheng of Qihe County, and now he is forty-eight years old before he became the county Yazhengtang. At his age, he basically doesn't expect much progress in his career.

Song Yu has no backers in the court. Those high-ranking officials and nobles like to promote those young and promising jinshi. The mid-forties are incomparable with the young sons and daughters of the mid-twenties, and the twenty-year-old jinshi, even if they don't do anything, just boil their qualifications, and stay up for thirty or forty years, they can also be mixed with a high-ranking official of the second or third grades.

And Song Yu was only in his forties when he was a jinshi, and his career basically would not have great achievements, and he would be able to join the state in the army in the future, and the state general judge and other state officials at most, and then take the honorary title of official promotion to the officer.

The so-called "30 old Ming Jing, 40 new jinshi" is pure deception. If you are in your forties, you will not be able to enter the sergeant, so how can you have any future! Therefore, Song Yu enjoys the feeling of being the main hall of the county government now.

Hearing everyone's congratulations, Song Zhixian arched his hand to everyone, signaled to disperse, and then turned to the back of the screen, usually at this time, he would return to his signature room. This day's "row of offices" is over.

But today, Song Yu did not go back directly, but beckoned County Lieutenant Zheng to go to his signing room together.

Song Zhixian and Zheng County Lieutenant came to his signing room together, sat down with the guests, and served two cups of newly-ordered Wuyi rock tea.

In addition to the popular "sencha method" of cooking with various condiments, the "tea ordering method" was also popular among the literati. The so-called "tea ordering method" first puts the tea leaves in the tea bowl, injects a small amount of boiling water into a paste, and then injects boiling water, or directly injects boiling water into the tea bowl, and at the same time stirs with a tea whisk to make the tea powder float up to form porridge noodles.

Song Zhixian beckoned County Lieutenant Zheng to drink tea together. Song Zhixian took a sip of Wuyi rock tea full of foam, and was very intoxicated, and his expression seemed to be drinking agar syrup and jade liquid.

"Mingda, what do you think of the old man's tea?"

"Daling this tea has a strong aroma and mellow taste, and it is very delicious!"

Song Zhixian smiled and talked with County Lieutenant Zheng for a while, before asking: "Mingda, I recently heard a rumor that Zhong Hao, a talented man who made the lyrics of "Water Tune Song Head" at the Mid-Autumn Festival Poetry Meeting, was locked up in our county office, and was sentenced by you to be sent to the army!" Is there such a thing? What happened to this Zhong Hao?" County Lieutenant Zheng Lang, the words are clear. Song Zhixian was very kind to his subordinate officials in private, and he did not put on an official show, and he was affectionately called Zheng County Lieutenant.

"Uh, Zhong Hao? It seems that there is such a person, Xia Guan remembers that he beat a merchant to a serious injury and fell into a coma, and Dr. Wu of the county medical hall concluded that it was difficult for the merchant to wake up, and even if he woke up, he would be invalid, so he sentenced Zhong Haoliu to be a soldier. As for whether he is the genius who wrote "Water Tune Song Head", this subordinate doesn't know! However, in the following official opinion, that Zhong Hao is just a fifteen-year-old boy, and he doesn't look like a genius who can make the good words of "Water Tune Song Head" at the Mid-Autumn Festival Poetry Conference! ”

"Oh, it's not good. Mingda, is this sentence a little too heavy? After all, he was still a fifteen-year-old boy. ”

"According to the law of my Great Song Dynasty, a man is counted as a ding at the age of fifteen. This Zhong Hao was seriously injured, the circumstances were heinous, and there was no room for commutation of the sentence. Don't say that he is not that talent, even if he is, he must be sentenced to exile according to the law! "County Lieutenant Zheng said righteously and strictly.

On weekdays, Song Zhixian does not care much about the affairs of the county government, and generally all kinds of general affairs of the county government are handed over to the various officials who have divisions and assistants. He learns calligraphy and drinks tea on weekdays, but he is also leisurely. It is probably because Song Zhixian has no big pursuit of official career, and he is governed by inaction and is happy to be idle.

On weekdays, when it comes to general public security and prisons, County Lieutenant Zheng is generally arbitrary, and at most he asks Song Zhixian to countersign afterwards. Song Zhixian usually signs and seals, and does not bother too much.

To be honest, County Lieutenant Zheng looked down on Song Zhixian a little, and felt that he had no authority, so he only respected Song Zhixian on weekdays, and did not give him much face in private.

Song Zhixian listened to County Lieutenant Zheng's somewhat blunt answer, a trace of unhappiness flashed on his face, and he still smiled and said: "Mingda can enforce the law impartially, the old man is very pleased, Yidu County is precisely with cadres like you, can public security appeasement, and people's livelihood be peaceful!" ”

"The great order is praised, and the lower officials dare not be ashamed!"

"But at the Mid-Autumn Festival Poetry Meeting that day, Fu Xianggong was very interested in this Zhong Hao!"

After listening to Song Zhixian's words, County Lieutenant Zheng's expression was obviously stunned, and then returned to normal, and said: "The lower officials will take care of it, but the lower officials are indeed impartial in enforcing the law, and they have a clear conscience!" ”

"That's good, that's good! Mingda, you go first, it's important to be busy with business, and the county government has to count on you a lot! ”

Looking at the back of Lieutenant Zheng leaving, Song Zhixian smiled a little meaningfully.

……

County Lieutenant Zheng returned to his signing room and sat down, took a sip of tea to recuperate, beckoned a long entourage and asked, "How are you going?" ”

"Lord Hui Shaoling, I have already done what you ordered. Du Da Hammer has been hiding. The villain had already instructed his family, and said that Du Dazhui had been unconscious, and his family took him to other places to seek medical treatment. Hou San and Lao Wu Na have also been smashed. Both of them have handles in our hands, so forgive them for not daring to talk nonsense. ”

"Well, the official knows, go down!"

After the chief left, County Lieutenant Zheng sat in the signing room by himself.

Zheng Lang was not born in Jinshi, but in the Ming Classics. He is not a county lieutenant who is not from the right path, and the third-in-command in the county, it is precisely because of the support of the Tang family that he can not take the county magistrate in his eyes and call for wind and rain in Yidu County. Song Zhixian was also self-aware and knew that it was difficult to shake the bottom of the county lieutenant Zheng, so he simply delegated power.

Therefore, when Tang Wei asked Zheng Lang to do Zhong Hao, he didn't think about it, so he happily agreed. It's just a little scholar, since the second son of Tang has ordered it, he naturally has to do it well.

Unexpectedly, there have been some accidents in the past few days, and it is rumored that the kid who did it turned out to be the genius who made the wonderful lyrics "Water Tune Song Head" at the Mid-Autumn Festival Poetry Meeting.

County Lieutenant Zheng went to Tang Ergongzi to verify, but Tang Ergongzi was also blunt and told him frankly that this matter was true.

County Lieutenant Zheng couldn't help but feel a little tricky. This Zhong Hao is now quite famous in Qingzhou, and if he really wants to deal with him, he really has to think carefully about the impact of this matter on the Shilin class.

A little scholar, who just fought with a hawker, was sentenced by him to be a mismatch, if this was spread, it would definitely cause a lot of bad feelings in Qingzhou Shilin. The literati will definitely accuse Zheng County Lieutenant of sentencing too harshly and ignoring Sven.

Don't underestimate the reputation of Shilin, in this era, it is the scholars of the Shilin class who have the right to speak in society. If he offends the anger of the scholars, and an official is badly rated in Shilin, he will also be badly rated in the Great Song Dynasty, and his future road to becoming an official will be doubly difficult. County Lieutenant Zheng is young, and he still thinks about taking a few steps forward in the future, because he is very afraid of causing Shilin's bad feelings, and he is very anxious about it.

But County Lieutenant Zheng couldn't overturn his verdict and gave Zhong Hao a lenient sentence. The reason why he can speak in the county government as the third-in-command of the county government is that he relies on the authority of his words. If you slap yourself in the face, it will be difficult to maintain your prestige in the county government in the future. Besides, if Zhong Hao is really sentenced lightly, it is difficult for Tang Ergongzi to explain.

Yes, after thinking about it, County Lieutenant Zheng still felt that he had to grit his teeth and resist this matter.
