Chapter 286: Deliberation
Li Shimin knew his wife best, and knew that the eldest grandson had figured it out, so he stretched out his head and kissed her face hard, and said with a smile: "The local chief, the county guard is transferred every four years, and the county order is transferred every six years, this is the iron law of the Tang Dynasty now, and the imperial history continues to walk and visit secretly every year, and there are only a few corrupt people like before, even if there are a few flaws, it is harmless, and there are no fish when the water is clear." ”
"Hehe, the second brother surpasses the Qin Emperor and Han Wu, as the first emperor of the ages, the Tang Dynasty is naturally eternal for thousands of years, and the concubine has lived in the harem for a long time, I didn't expect the world to change so much in the past two years." The better Li Shimin makes the world, the more the eldest grandson feels deeply honored, and he can't help but feel empathetic.
"Yes, Datang has changed a lot in the past few years, and I have had to spend more energy to face new affairs many times.
Fortunately, everything is getting better, and now Chang'an City is becoming more prosperous than before, Guanyin, you have time to go out for a walk. The corners of Li Shimin's mouth rose, thinking that he had only been on the throne for more than three years, and Datang had become what it is today, and his mood became inexplicably comfortable.
"Hee-hee! Second brother, you are so good! The concubine body is still going shopping on the Yuan Festival, but the concubine body doesn't buy much, and the palace is already the best. The eldest grandson Jiao smiled and leaned on Li Shimin's arms and said very considerately.
"Hehehe! I almost forgot that Guanyin was the richest queen in history. Li Shimin hugged his eldest grandson and took a small piece of banana and fed it.
"The concubine, isn't it your second brother, I haven't saved much silver in the past two years, cotton clothes, wool clothes are all for the soldiers first, and the people are also cheap there, there is no silk, linen is sold to the Western Regions, the income is good, and the perfume is also sensible and filial piety for the children." The eldest grandson took a fan and slowly fanned it for the two of them.
Just when the two of them were about to spark their sparks, a eunuch came to report, and the servants shot left and right, and the imperial historian came to face the saint.
When Li Shimin heard this, Wei Zheng was there, and he didn't want people to say it, so he immediately changed his clothes and went to the imperial study.
With Xiao Yu and others entering the imperial study, the chamberlain hurriedly added ice cubes to Bingjian, and a palace maid gently fanned Bingjian, and the cool breeze went towards several people, calming down the originally impatient heart.
Li Shimin entered the imperial study, and after a few people gave gifts, he asked someone to bring chilled fruits, and then asked: "The weather is hot, you Aiqing should pay attention to your body." ”
"Thank you for your concern!"
"Entering the palace in a hurry, is there something important?" Of course, Li Shimin knew that if there was nothing to do, it would be impossible for several people to enter the palace together, so he asked.
"Back to the saint, the spring hall has been evaluated, this is the ranking and the test papers agreed by the ministers, please make a decision on the saint." Several people glanced at each other, but Wei Zheng took out a stack of materials and said.
"Oh, there are people who are particularly exceptional?" Li Shimin suddenly came to his senses, and happily asked.
"There are a number of people who have good literary talents, but their abilities are unknown, and the people at the frontispiece, Li Yaochen, a person from Tengzhou, Jinjin (now Tengcheng Town, Tengxian County), his father Li Xin, and Wen Linlang are the best in literature.
According to the requirements of the Holy Lord, arithmetic, medicine, civil engineering, and water conservancy are all examined. Wei Zheng replied.
Li Shimin picked up the exam paper and looked at the frontispiece, and said with a little dissatisfaction: "I look at it, it's not satisfactory." ”
"In the first two years, the saint has asked to recommend talents many times, and the martial arts academy has recruited them twice, and almost all the people who are nearly old have already become scholars, and this spring is just a check for omissions." Xiao Yu arched his hand and explained.
"Well, Aiqing is reasonable, except for this Chunqiu, they should all be literate people, just leave them all, Jinshi, the first 100 people in the two Ming Classics are left, and each department will divide it to see the after-effects.
The rest of the miscellaneous subjects will be sent to the relevant yamen to serve, and there are nearly 1,000 people left. Li Shimin thought for a while and made arrangements for the fate of this cadre.
"The minister thinks that if there is only one cadre left, depending on his willingness, he will return home if he is willing to go home, and if he is unwilling to go back, he can let them go to various places to serve as small officials." Du Ruhui suggested.
"Aiqing's words are very good! There is no problem for these people to be one or two small officials, it is better to leave a group of teachers to learn.
I want to build a large number of free Mongolian schools in Luoyang, so that all school-age children can have books to read, and also give these students one more choice. Li Shimin agreed.
"There are clouds of etiquette: the old are supported, the young are educated, the poor are dependent, the difficult are helped, and the widowed, lonely, and sick are all supported.
The Holy One is to open up an unprecedented prosperous era, and this matter is a prelude to the arrival of the prosperous era, and it is a great honor for the ministers to be attached to the tail wing of the Holy One! Wei Zheng was born in poverty, so he naturally understood the difficulty of studying in a poor family, not to mention ordinary people, who strongly agreed with Li Shimin's opinion, and it was rare to pat himself on the back.
"Huh! Aiqing said that the peaceful and prosperous era has just begun, and it still needs the joint efforts of all the gentlemen, as for the free Mengxue, it is just to see Shuo, and the effect in western Liaoning is quite good, so it is pushed down the river. Although Li Shimin was happy with Wei Zheng's sycophant, he couldn't cover his ears and steal the bell, and said with a little embarrassment.
"As the master of the people, he is naturally the best of all schools, he can learn from each other's strengths, humbly accept advice, and understand the trade-offs, which is Mingjun." Xiao Yu said with relief, which means that you have done a good job, you are Mingjun, and it is a matter of course for you to use the methods of your courtiers.
"You Aiqing should have other things, right?" Li Shimin calmly accepted Xiao Yu's words and asked with a smile.
"The sky is not beautiful, Hebei has a drought in three continents this year, it is a foregone conclusion, how to relieve the disaster is still up to the saint to decide." Du Ruhui arched his hand and said.
"If there are deaths, how long can people live?" When Li Shimin heard this, he suddenly lost his smile, and asked with a frown.
"At present, there are no reports of deaths, and the people's lives should not last long, which is still the basis for the two years of living richly, if it was in the past, I am afraid that some people have fled the famine.
This is the document of the Sanzhou County Guard's request to open a warehouse for disaster relief! Du Ruhui replied while handing over three notebooks.
"Exactly! The province came up with a plan as soon as possible, how to let the people tide over the difficulties, this year the three continents are all exempt from taxes, and after the drought, they are distributing grain. Li Shimin took a quick look and immediately made an order.
"Zhongshu Province has discussed the construction of roads, water conservancy, and the implementation of work-for-relief by the surrounding counties, please ask the Holy Emperor for approval!" Now that Zhongshu Province has begun to implement, make a response plan for anything first, and hand it over to Li Shimin to make a choice, and calmly hand over an official document at the moment, just waiting for Li Shimin to make a decision and stamp the jade seal.
This is also the reason why Li Shimin still has time to accompany his eldest grandson to play in the water during the Spring Festival, take it and take a closer look, and immediately let the palm print eunuch take the jade seal and stamp it personally.
The jade seal is usually kept in the imperial study by the eunuch with palm prints, and the jade seal is not allowed to leave half a step, but the stamping can only be done by Li Shimin himself, and others are not qualified.
