Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

The Qing court was prepared, and Huaxia was no exception, on the third day of June in the fourteenth year of Wucheng, Zheng Kezhang swore in the northern expedition on the outskirts of Wuchang, but just before leaving Wuchang to drive the expedition again, Zheng Kezhang recalled the emperor's eldest son Zheng Andi and his eldest son Zheng Anyang from their respective positions in Gannan and Guizhou to the central government.

At this time, Zheng Andi and Zheng Anyang are both thirty years old, after more than ten years of experience, although the two are not fully mature, but the temperament has completely disappeared impetuousness, although they know that Zheng Kezhang called himself back this time may involve the responsibility of staying behind in the country, but both of them are very steady, and there is no anxiety about gains and losses.

Zheng Kezhang was very pleased with the appearance of his two sons, so he praised him: "Zhenguan has done a good job in southern Gansu, I heard that he has run all the inspection divisions, do you feel anything?" ”

The thirty-year-old lord of a county replied respectfully at this moment: "The son only has a preliminary understanding of the situation in the county, and he has not had time to plan for the county government, so he can't afford the praise of his father." ”

"In this way, I don't know it's me, I should have let you stay in Suichuan, so that you can show your ambitions." Zheng Kezhang said while watching Zheng Andi's reaction, and saw that he was not frightened by his words, so he nodded secretly. "Well, since I can't see you ruling with one hand and one foot, let's talk about any specific plans first."

"Back to my father's words, my sons traveled all over the county, and only then did I sigh that my father's cave candle was thousands of miles, and how holy the policy of building a national highway was proposed early in the morning." Zheng Andi slapped his ass quietly, which is about the inevitable harvest after being in the place for a long time, and the edges and corners are smooth. "If you don't build roads, you can't sell the mountain treasures, and you can't attract merchants, and without the taxes of merchants, just by virtue of the topography of Suichuan's seven mountains, one water and two fields, I'm afraid that we will have to count on provincial and government allocations every year for relief."

"That's true," Zheng nodded. "Suichuan is located at the eastern foot of the Luoxiao Mountains, and there are still mountain treasures on the mountain, but the road is not smooth, otherwise it is a big income to sell bamboo." Speaking of this, Zheng Kezhang asked again. "There is no money in the county, so you can only rely on the provincial government for assistance, so how are you going to build the road?"

"Erchen has discussed with Wan'an County, and is ready to build the section of the road from Wan'an to Suichuan first." Wan'an is adjacent to the Ganjiang River, commerce and trade are far more prosperous than Suichuan, and the natural financial resources are much richer. "As for this section of the county, Erchen is going to mobilize the gentry in the county to donate a little money, and then mobilize the people of the county to help."

Zheng Kezhang suddenly interrupted: "How did I hear that there is a conflict between the meritorious people of the Ganzhou Mansion and the local gentry???????

Zheng Andi replied: "The meritorious people do not bear the land endowment, and occupy the original position of the gentry, so naturally the two sides are not accustomed to each other, but the road construction is beneficial to the whole county, and the sons believe that the two parties may be able to work together." ”

Zheng Kezhang commented: "Wishful thinking, it's too naΓ―ve, you go back and look through the 24th history, but in the case of cooperation and mutual benefit, you have nothing to gain or even lose on both sides because of the party's similarity and disagreement. ”

I don't know if Zheng Andi listened to it or not, Zheng Kezhang said again: "If I am in your position, I will hand over the matter of road construction to one of the Gongmin Association or the gentry to deal with, and allow them to set up card fees after the road is completed, and collect a tax from them every year, and then return the right of way to the official after thirty or fifty years, and then let people accompany them for free." ”

Zheng Kezhang then added: "Although the gentry may be richer, I will most likely let the meritorious people operate this matter, after all, the meritorious people will be united, and the gentry have no contact with each other, are not convinced by each other, and there are many contradictions, so it is very difficult to handle this matter well." ”

Zheng Andi thought for a while: "Father Emperor Shengming, but if the father's method is adopted, the sons will still let the gentry do it, what they take is that they are scattered and cannot be unanimous, at most, the county workshop will come forward to organize the construction, and the gentry only need to invest money, or they can avoid the disadvantages of delaying completion." ”

Zheng Kezhang glanced at Zheng Andi in some surprise: "You have your way, this is a good thing." ”

After saying that, Zheng Kezang turned his head to Zheng Anyang and asked, "Baoguan, how are you doing?" ”

In the Ming and Qing dynasties, the official name of the school official in the county was the official name, but in the Huaxia Dynasty, it was the honorific title of the head of the branch of the school department, and the official name should be the capital of a certain school department, which is equivalent to the head of a certain department of the school department and the head of a local (provincial) branch of the school department, and the status is still above the ordinary county from the six products, but Zheng Anyang's dispatch also has the words "learning to walk on the job", so it is one level lower than the actual official, which is just equal to Zheng Andi's rank, and it can be regarded as Zheng Kezang's painstaking deliberate arrangement.

"Back to my father, although Zunyi is a first-class mansion in Guizhou, it is far inferior to the first-class prefectures of Huguang, Yidong, and western Sichuan provinces, not to mention the same as the rich lands in Jiangnan and Guangdong." Zheng Anyang did not say this to complain. "Zhu Zi's interpretation of "Mencius" said that food and clothing were sufficient and then able to educate, so the sons were incompetent, and in Zunyi for a year, the number of students in the government school did not increase, and the number of students in several county schools decreased."

"I can't blame you for this." Zheng Kezhang relieved a few words, and then asked. "Since you are a scholar, then tell me that since the implementation of the new academic system, there have been disadvantages in the locality?"

"After Erchen became a school official, he also figured out the school system, but he felt that there were a few things wrong." Since Zheng Kezhang asked, Zheng Anyang replied without concealment. "First, the county school and the government school students participate in the examination at the same time, which obviously has more opportunities to have a certificate of completion of the government school, and most of the people who fall behind are in a very poor situation, and the children think that the officials who are outside the school do not need too many academic qualifications, as long as the book and the number of subjects can be passed, so is it possible to consider dividing the examination into two examinations, and assessing the two separately, so as to appease some frustrated people??????"

"Those who have a county school diploma can participate in the entrance examination, such as children dancing with a sledgehammer, and they can be satisfied." Zheng Kezhang laughed. "My son is kind-hearted, and I can't see the embarrassment of scholars, but there are a few people who can be born in Jinshi and Jinshi in the past dynasties, and since they have embarked on this road, they can only have no regrets." After laughing, Zheng Kezhang admonished with a solemn expression. "Baoguan, the integration of officials is one of the national policies of this dynasty, if you let the county scholars enter the path of officials, it will undoubtedly shake the national policy."

Zheng Anyang was also taken aback, but he was just as quiet: "Erchen is confused, Erchen has been taught." ”

"It has nothing to do with whether you are confused or not, you must know that politicians must take into account all aspects, and if you are in my position, you will not think so much." Zheng Kezang's mention is aimed at Zheng Anyang and Zheng Andi. "At that time, there will naturally be a large number of vested interests who will cry for your father and mother to persuade you to change your ways."

Zheng Anyang and Zheng Andi's bodies were shocked, and the two of them immediately leaned down and responded seriously: "The ministers understand. ”

"Alright," Zheng Kezhang waved his hand, making the two sons straighten up. "There is a first, there is a second, and you go on."

"Yes." Zheng Anyang continued. "Second, Erchen also talked with a few sacrificial wines in Taixue in Guiyang, and everyone thought that the time for the Taixue exam every three years was a bit long, and the imperial court did not formulate a statute for those who failed to pass the three consecutive examinations should quit Taixue, which is a bit inappropriate."

Zheng Kezhang thought for a while: "You hand over a copy of the fold in the name of the Zunyi Mansion of the School Department and go through the process." ”

Zheng Anyang knew that Zheng Kezhang attached importance to his own opinions, and was a little excited: "The third is about Taixue, my son and several sacrificial wines all think that all ministries and yamen are now entering people in separate ways, so is the unified official examination no longer out of date, or is it up to each ministry to list the annual shortages, and the examination questions will be issued by themselves, and the officials will be assessed on their behalf." ”

Zheng Kezhang stood up and walked around the room a few times: "I'm afraid that too many students will pick fat and thin ?????? from now on."

Zheng Anyang immediately said: "Maybe you can use the method of the previous government school, or you can ask the students to only apply for one or two ministries and departments at a time, and stipulate that they can only take the ministry examination three times and up to four times. ”

Zheng Kezhang smiled secretly, obviously this son is not as stable as his appearance appears, compared to Zheng Andi is still a few points worse, he didn't say anything, he put the two related problems and solutions on the table. But this is also understandable, after all, it is related to who the storage position is, if you are not tempted at all, then there is really a problem. Of course, it may also be that Zheng Andi and Zheng Anyang are in different positions, although they are both from the six products, but one grasps the overall situation, the other is responsible, and there is a natural difference in mastering the rhythm of the exhibition.

Zheng Kezang's inner considerations naturally can't be declared, no matter what, Zheng Anyang is a son-in-law, and there is Chen Xianqiao, the queen's mother, behind him, so Zheng Kezhang doesn't want to hit him too much, anyway, the battle for the storage position is a long-distance race, as long as he can hold it, he should be able to sharpen the final winner.

"Write this on the fold." Zheng Kezhang decided to end the topic and turn to the main topic. "I am going to send troops to the Northern Expedition soon, originally I wanted the queen to continue to supervise the country, but the queen has been unwell recently and has not had enough energy, so after thinking about it, I am still ready to choose one of you, and as for the other, let's go north with me to see it." Zheng Kezhang asked. "Say, which of you wants to stay, who wants to follow north?"

Zheng Andi and Zheng Anyang looked at each other, the two naturally knew that they could fight the enemy together with Zheng Kezang when they went north, and it was naturally Jian in the emperor's heart, and staying would also be able to obtain the name of the prison country, not to mention taking the lead in the competition for the storage position, even the perspective of vision would be different. How to choose, this is a dilemma, and it may also be Zheng Kezang's further assessment.

After thinking about it for a long time, Zheng Andi asked: "I'm afraid that the post of superintendent will show his face in front of hundreds of officials." ”

Zheng Kezhang replied with a smile: "That is, the waiter can see a little more clearly, and as for waiting, he can almost see a hazy shadow." ”

Zheng Andi glanced at Zheng Anyang: "In this way, the son chose to accompany his father to the north." ”

Zheng Anyang was stunned for a moment, and then said: "The son is also willing to accompany his father to the north." ”

Let's not say what Zheng Andi thinks, Zheng Kezhang has already made a decision: "There is no need to fight, the treasure official picks first, then do it according to the meaning of the treasure official, treasure official, you stay and supervise the country??????
