Chapter 3 Fuyao (5 I)
Chapter 3 Fuyao (Fifth Up) On the morning of the second day, Li Xu ordered all the civil and military officials in Boling to go to the General's Mansion to discuss matters.
β This was the first time he had mobilized since Luo Yi withdrew his army, so many people were caught off guard.
"What's going on again?" The officials who arrived in a hurry looked at each other, and at the same time a sense of foreboding welled up in their hearts.
In this chaotic age of war, it is not surprising that even a stone suddenly falls from the sky. Moreover, the unlucky six counties are still sandwiched between Dou Jiande and Luo Yi, two big bandits, and they are even more expected to live a life of dissipation!
To everyone's surprise, Li Xu gave everyone a surprise straight to the point. He announced that according to the recent performance of everyone in the battle to defend the six counties, he would reward Lu Qin, Zhang Jiang, Zhao Ziming and other military officials, as well as Cui Qian, Zhang Jiuyi and other civil officials.
But what was issued as a prize was not gold and silver, but the loose official title that began to be trialed in the era of the Great Sui Emperor, and could be used by the owner to glorify the lintel.
LΓΌ Qin, Zhangjiang and Zhao Ziming had outstanding military exploits, so they were promoted by the champion general Li Xu as General Guide, General Yuan Mi and General Huaihua.
These three positions are all from the third grade, and they are only half a level smaller than Li Xu's champion general. Under that, the German side, Zhou Daniu, Wang Suba and others were awarded four grades to seven grades and five dismissals according to their merits.
Cui Qian and Zhang Jiuyi first resolutely refused the wooing of Youzhou, and later tried their best to help the army prepare materials and participate in the defense of the city.
β Therefore, he was elected as the Silver Purple Guanglu Doctor and the Zhengyi Doctor, and Yin Yizi was the Ninth Rank Confucian Lin Lang. There are more than 20 subordinate officials, and they have been awarded from the fourth rank to the seventh rank.
There are also a number of meritorious soldiers in battle, who were awarded the captains of the cloud cavalry, the captain of the Jianjie, and the captains of the imperial army. If there is any omission, the supervisor can apply for a supplementary report.
Although these rewards need to be reported to Jiangdu, they can only be cashed out after the imperial court's deliberations. But everyone knows very well in their hearts that the so-called imperial court has long been unable to meddle in local affairs.
Pei, Yu and others didn't dare to deny Luo Yi, the self-styled manager, and of course they wouldn't refute Li Xu
The face of the "loyal minister"!
"The end (Se Se will thank you for the general!) The generals who had been promoted were elated, stood up together, and solemnly thanked them.
"The grace of the general, the humble duty will always be engraved in the five!" The civil officials followed behind the generals and slammed to the ground.
Strictly speaking, the dismissal of officials represents only one kind of honor. There is no corresponding position in the Boling Army and the Six Counties.
There will be no more payment in the treasury for the people. However, the status of a person who has a corresponding position as a casual official does not change according to the actual change of position.
For example, Zhang Jiuyi's current main position is the Boling County Guard, and the dismissal is the main doctor. It means that even if he is no longer a county guard, he can rely on the dismissal of the fourth grade to have a relationship with the still incumbent county guard Cui Qian.
Once there is a problem in the family, the local officials must handle it carefully and report the results to the highest functional department for the record, rather than kneading it as if they were ordinary people.
If the Zhang family feels that the local officials are acting unfairly, they can also rely on the dismissal of the officials to ask to see the general Li Xu, or even a certain important minister of the dynasty, to report the grievances suffered by the family to the ears of the emperor, and ask for justice in front of the civil and military officials.
β Furthermore, for many scholars from poor families like Fang Yannian and Wu Qixiu in the Boling Army and the Six Counties Mansion, they got a dismissal, which is equivalent to changing their family ranks.
From then on, the local big families can no longer look at them coldly, whether these old tycoons are willing or not, they must accept their identity as new Jin clans.
Therefore, Zhong Wenwu's feelings for Li Xu inspired him from the heart. Everyone felt that it was not wrong to work for the general, although the future was still uncertain, at least he didn't owe anything to the immediate benefits that everyone deserved.
Of course, there are also a few people who feel that Li Xu is too stingy, and only benefits a few of his visible cronies.
Although many local officials did not do their best to maintain the six counties like Cui Qian and Zhang Jiuyi, they did not do less things within the scope of their duties!
Those things seem simple, but they are very trivial. Everyone has been busy for months, and if you don't have credit, you should remember a hard work.
You can't give a five-grade or six-grade casual job and happiness, but at least you should give an eight-grade or nine-grade comfort and comfort.
You can't watch others go all the way to the rank and file, but they can only stand on the side of the road and eat dirt.
"The role of loose officials is the virtue of adding civil and military affairs. It involves order and humility, so Li does not dare to abuse it! After everyone returned to their original positions, Li Xu stood up from behind the handsome case and explained with a smile.
β
"It should be so, although the current imperial court is in decline, after all, we are all from the right path, and we must follow the rules and regulations in everything, and we can't follow the example of Dou Jiande, who was born as a bandit!" Zhang Jiuyi, who had been secretly angry with Li Xu for a long time, hurriedly stood up and responded loudly.
Although they are also local separatist forces, the officials of the six counties of Boling look down on their neighbor Dou Jiande very much.
The latter has now made himself the king of Changle, the chief manager of Hejian, and the generals, princes, and marquis under his command are also a lot of strokes.
This method of sealing officials not only did not have the possibility of being recognized by the Great Sui Imperial Court, but also led to a rapid depreciation of officials within the jurisdiction of Dou Jiajun.
Of course, if Dou Jiande can sit in the world in the future, that is another way of saying. Judging from the current situation, this possibility is not much more likely than Li Xu's opportunity to achieve great things!
"As the old saying goes, encouraging the people to be officials can make the high ones do their best, and the lowly ones know how to advance and retreat. If you teach each other arbitrarily, you will be indiscriminate! The German side also stood out of the queue when the right Sima and Dingyuan generals agreed with Zhang Jiuyi's opinion.
"To put it lightly, you two have a job in hand anyway!" Someone secretly slandered in his stomach, and the sour smell rushed from the heel to the top of the head.
If it weren't for the thick material of the official hat, the smoke in his hair would leak out directly. But Li Xu obviously didn't intend to disappoint them, and when Zhang and Shi finished the scene, they nodded with a smile, and continued: "At present, the foundation of my six counties is weak, and the importance of governing is to recuperate. Therefore, the war will not be lightly started, and the military achievements cannot be taken lightly. It is unfair for local officials to work all day long, but it is difficult to be promoted. So, Ben Shuai had to think of something else!" Hearing this, the sourness in many people's hearts immediately disappeared.
No matter what everyone's attitude towards Li Xu is, they all believe that he is a downright man who does what he says. He said that not to swallow up the merits of the multitude means that those whose merits are not conspicuous will also be rewarded.
It's just that the way and timing of this return are worrying again. Next, Li Xu's words made people's hearts that had just warmed up fall directly into the ice cave.
"However, the people did not have much contact with the kings, and did not know the hardships of your ordinary people. If Ben Shuai gives people officials at every turn, it will inevitably make people think that we are another group of Dou family soldiers. He smiled bitterly and said that he really had no choice,
Therefore, Ben Shuai decided that from today onwards, the Han system will be restored, and civilian officials below the sixth grade can get it by donating rice and grain. The rice and grain materials are used for disaster relief. In this way, the people can appreciate your virtues, and the commander can also show your merits! As soon as he finished speaking, the bottom immediately fried the pan like water splashed in boiling oil.
Gu Bu was afraid of colliding with the general, Lin Quanzhong, the lieutenant of Boling County, was the first to stand up and asked in a trembling voice: "General, the general can guarantee that this move can be recognized and approved by the imperial court?!" With his position, Ben didn't have a chance to stand in front of Li Xu and speak.
But this morning, Li Xu specially took care of all the civil and military forces in Boling City to participate in the discussion. So Lin Quanzhong also got a position to listen, and he got a good opportunity that he couldn't dream of!
"I already have the right to appoint and dismiss local officials, and besides, what I pledged this time is a dismissal below the sixth grade. It will not cost the imperial court the slightest rice and grain, and has recruited countless loyal and righteous people for the imperial court, how can the imperial court interfere? Li Xu nodded and replied with great confidence.
"Then, dare to ask the general, donate a six-pin, how much rice does the six-pin Chenglang need?" Lin Quanzhong tried to make his voice sound calm, but everyone noticed his nervousness.
It's no wonder that Lin Quanzhong couldn't take advantage of his anger, and looked at Boling County, there were few people with a bigger family business than him to talk about. But the Lin family was born in a merchant, and his ancestors had never been a prominent official, so like Xu Maogong back then, no matter how rich he was, he couldn't be compared with the Zhang family, the Cui family and other generations of wealthy families.
If he survives in the position of county lieutenant, he may not be able to be promoted to the county governor for another twenty years. But it is much more convenient to donate a casual job, as long as Li Xu's appetite is not too big, even if the Lin family takes out one-third of the family property, they will not give up the opportunity to change the family.
"This matter has been considered by Ben Shuai, and the threshold cannot be set too high, so as not to cut off the way for people to enter. From the ninth grade to two hundred stone rice, the ninth grade is four hundred stones, and each level is added in the future, and the rice grain is doubled! Li Xu thought about it and replied very seriously.
This price is indeed not high. But if you want to donate to the position of Liupinsan, it is also a figure that ordinary large households can't afford.
However, since the Han Dynasty, most of the official porridge sellers in previous dynasties have been secretly operated, like Li Xu, the price is clearly marked, and the number of donations from each official buyer is made public to the people, but the behavior of buying people's hearts by them has never happened.
Therefore, no matter from that point of view, the funders did not suffer. On the contrary, while they get a dismissive job, they can also buy a prestige to help the poor!
For Lin Quanzhong, who has already taken money very lightly, this is indeed a good deal for the benefit of his children and grandchildren!
Lin Quanzhong, who couldn't bear the opportunity to slip away in front of him, wiped the sweat on his forehead fiercely, and asked eagerly: "Dare to ask the general, when will this matter be handled, and who will you go to to handle it?" β
"From tomorrow, it can be handled at the General's Mansion. Zhao Sima and Fang Changshi are in charge! All my children of the six counties, no matter how noble or low, are willing to advance and retreat with the six counties, can donate wealth and get officials! Li Xu looked at everyone and threw out the answer that he had been preparing for a long time.
