The emperor and Empress Wu were chanting poems, and Li Rizhi didn't make do with them, his level of poetry was so-so, and it was not difficult to say that it was not difficult to make a poem, but if he made good poems like those ministers, it was basically impossible.

And Li Rizhi also knows that they are all official articles, and the ministers who wrote poems were all arranged in advance by Empress Wu, and those poems are estimated to have been done in Chang'an, this kind of thing is to sing praises of virtue, and it is useless for him to come forward, and the emperor and Empress Wu are not short of his little sycophants.

Li Rizhi saw that those landlords and old fortunes from Bocheng County walked down from the stone platform, so he walked over slowly, wanting to talk to these landlords and old fortunes.

However, at this time, there was someone who blocked his way, and Li Rizhi looked up and saw that it was Helan Minzhi.

I saw Helan Minzhi raising his eyebrows, his face full of provocative expressions, and glaring at Li Rizhi viciously.

Helan Minzhi lowered his voice, even if his temperament was very arrogant, but he didn't dare to shout loudly at this time, in case he disturbed the interest of the emperor and Empress Wu on the stone platform, then it was estimated that he would have to be beaten, and Empress Wu was not very kind to him during this time, so he had to pay more attention to his words and deeds.

Helan Minzhi said in a low voice: "Li Rizhi, do you still know so-and-so?" ”

Looking at his expression, it is obvious that there are still many things to say to Li Rizhi, of course, even if these words are guessed, he knows that they are definitely not good words.

Li Rizhi said: "I don't recognize it! ”

He said three words very simply, and then he bypassed Helan Minzhi and continued to walk towards the landlords and old fortunes of Bocheng County.

Helan Minzhi never expected Li Rizhi to answer these three words, he was stunned for a moment, the time was too short, and his brain was not very fast, so he didn't react much?

When he reacted, when he turned around, he found that Li Rizhi was already far away from him, and he had already walked into the crowd, if he wanted to go over to find Li Rizhi again, it would be inappropriate, and it would be easy to attract the attention of others.

Li Rizhi walked among the landlords and old wealthymen, looked for the middle-aged rich man who took the lead, and asked, "What did Your Majesty ask you?" ”

The middle-aged rich man's face was flushed at this time, and he was so excited that he was about to faint when he looked at him.

The middle-aged rich man said: "Your Majesty asked me, who found this auspicious place, and I replied that I found it, Your Majesty praised me well, and the queen also rewarded me with a glass of wine, and the wine was drunk on the spot, and I took out this wine glass to keep as an heirloom!" ”

As he spoke, the middle-aged rich man took out a wine glass from his sleeve and held it in his hand as if holding a treasure for others to see, and the rich people around him all made envious ah-ahs, looking at their eyes, it was obvious that they were envious and jealous of this middle-aged rich man.

Li Rizhi glanced at the wine glass, the royal wine glass is naturally very exquisite, if it can be kept as an heirloom, it is worth it, but this wine glass is taken away, and the set of wine utensils in the palace will not be complete.

Li Rizhi smiled and said: "If there is only one wine glass as an heirloom, I'm afraid it's not suitable, otherwise this way, the official knows the chief manager of the palace, and after a while, the official will go to him to bring the whole set of wine utensils and give it to you, this is the royal wine utensils, keep them as family heirlooms, it is definitely enough, worthy of the ancestors, worthy of the children and grandchildren." ”

When the middle-aged rich man heard this, he was very excited, even more excited than just now, he knelt down in front of Li Rizhi as soon as his legs were weak, and kowtowed three times to Li Rizhi, so excited that he couldn't even say his words smoothly, and would only say thank you to the Inspector, thank you to the Inspector.

Li Rizhi smiled slightly, stretched out his hand to help the middle-aged rich man up, and then said to them: "Come, let's talk to the side, this official has something to discuss with you." ”

The rich men wondered, "Will we be asked to pay again?" But let's get out, as long as we pay the money, we can get the benefits, that's okay, the money is worth it, I'm afraid that we pay the money, and then no benefits will fall, that's uncomfortable! ”

Li Rizhi has a purpose in looking for these landlords and old wealth, because after the end of the Zen Sealing Ceremony, he will stay in Bocheng County as the county commander, and at that time, the team in the county government will all be completely replaced, and the former officials and errand servants will definitely not be able to be used anymore.

Li Rizhi didn't have the guts to use those officials and servants anymore, it is estimated that no one would have the courage to use them again, and they would all be put in prison by robbers, such people are really useless.

Of course, the main officials in the county must be designated by Li Rizhi, such as the county governor, the county lieutenant and the chief bookkeeper, and the most important positions can be done by Cheng Zizai Fu Guibao and Chen Yingying.

Chen Yingying is a woman, but because she is a female official in the palace, if she is accommodating from Tong Guinu's side, it is still okay to act as the main bookkeeper, and other officials must have a lot of objections, but as long as Tong Guinu tells Empress Wu about this, Empress Wu will approve of it nine times out of ten, and there is no need to let Chen Yingying really be the master bookkeeper, just act as an agent.

However, other officials basically had to be selected locally, and in this era, the requirements for the selection of local officials, whether they were literate or not must be one of the conditions to be considered, it was impossible to let illiterate people enter the yamen as officials, and low-level officials could be illiterate, but ordinary officials were absolutely not.

In this era, literate people are almost all surplus wealth, if the family is not full, it is even more impossible to provide for children to study, the Tang Dynasty Gaozong era of education is not particularly popular, unlike the later Song Dynasty and the Ming and Qing dynasties, can afford to read and buy books, basically are rich, and the children of the rich family, most of them are reading, of course, whether the book is good or not, then another story.

Therefore, if Li Rizhi wants to re-select officials and servants, then it is best to choose from the landlords and old fortunes in Bocheng County, which happens to concentrate almost all the landlords and old fortunes in the entire county.

Li Rizhi talked to them and asked them to recommend the children in their own family, which is the fastest way to be able to smoothly carry out his governance of Bocheng County, of course, this is not the best way, but it is definitely the fastest way.

Li Rizhi slightly revealed his thoughts to these landlords and old wealthy, and these landlords and old fortunes were almost stunned.

The officials and errands in the county government must be replaced, and those officials and errands themselves are very clear about this, and those who can basically find a way out during this time have already gone to find a way out, and no one will wait stupidly.

And the landlords and old fortunes can be regarded as well-informed people, and they can be regarded as having some understanding of this matter, but they only thought that the new county magistrate would use their own team, but they didn't expect that Li Rizhi would give them such a big opportunity, which can really be regarded as a surprise.
