Article 258 Land Fundamentals (II)
Every time he went to see Wen Tianxiang and Wen Shangshu, Zhao Qian felt a little bit of psychological pressure. This Great Song Dynasty official is almost 190 tall, and just by standing there, Zhao Qian, who is close to 185 in height, has to look up. But due to work, the psychological pressure is high, and you have to see those who should be seen.
The two sat down, but Zhao Qian unexpectedly found that he did not have the same resistance to Wen Tianxiang as before. He couldn't help but take a closer look at Wen Tianxiang, wanting to see if there had been any changes in this official book. Looking closely, Wen Tianxiang has not changed much. This year is the 333rd year of the Great Song Dynasty, which is a very memorable year. According to the "Regulations on the Use of Modern Chinese" promulgated last year, the ancient name of Zhishi has been changed to Wangwen Shengyi's retirement. The retirement age of ministerial-level officials in the Great Song Dynasty is 60 years old, and Wen Shangshu is 57 years old this year. Except for his slightly gray hair, Wen Tianxiang doesn't look old.
"Zhao Qian. This time I asked you to come over to do your review. Wen Tianxiang got straight to the point.
"Hmm." Zhao Qian responded. When I went out during this time, I was used to being called the crown prince, and I was called by my real name according to the basic system, and I felt a little uncomfortable in my heart.
"I'll prepare the content from the day after tomorrow, so you can prepare it well." Wen Tianxiang still has a business-like attitude.
After receiving the notice before the audit, Zhao Qian went home directly. As soon as he got home, he couldn't help but say to his wife: "If I go to Ningbo, do you want to go with me?" ”
Zhao Qian's wife listened to this question, looked at Zhao Qian puzzled, and then asked, "You don't want me to go?" ”
Such a problem made Zhao Qian a little unable to deal with it. He felt that his wife was becoming more and more similar to his mother, and his father Zhao Jiaren was a difficult guy to deal with since he was a child, but his father just made Zhao Qian feel a kind of pressure that was difficult to deal with, and it was a kind of macro pressure. The old lady made Zhao Qian feel the reality, which was like a fine needle that could touch Zhao Qian's every thought.
"I didn't mean that!" Zhao Qian had to confess.
"If you don't mean that, let me make my own choice." Zhao Qian's wife replied crisply.
"......" Zhao Qian didn't know what to say, and now he suddenly felt that his wife was very similar to his father Zhao Jiaren in some aspects. But after being tested by his parents for a long time, Zhao Qian quickly relieved himself, and he changed his words: "I am under review, and I may not be able to come back in the next few days." ”
"I'll take the children back to my mother first."
"If I pass, I'll go to Ningbo."
"Wait until you're passed."
After this boring materialist dialogue, Zhao Qian felt a little depressed. Going to the study, he began to prepare for the audit. Basic personal information requires several forms, looking at the blank space left behind, Zhao Qian took the pen and typed the draft. As he wrote, he began to lose confidence.
Zhao Qian used to work as the highest-level county magistrate in charge of agriculture, and when he was working on water conservancy projects, although he had to organize a large number of people to work, it did not involve administrative positions, but simply a production position. Now I suddenly want to go to Ningbo Mansion, although I am not immediately the prefect of Ningbo, but I also start from being in charge of water conservancy work, and it is possible to take over the prefect of Ningbo after working for a while. The initial excitement has passed, and now it's starting to be a little uneasy.
Ningbo used to be called Qingyuan Mansion, and Zhao Qian's grandfather was Qingyuan and Zhizhou, which can be regarded as some kind of hometown. Although Zhao Qian's age when he became the prefect was later than his father Zhao Jiaren, it was not normal to use a guy like my father who was admitted to the Jinshi at the age of thirteen as the standard. In comparison, grandpa is a comparable object. Becoming the prefect earlier than his grandfather, Zhao Qian didn't know what he had to do to show his strength.
was nervous, and Zhao Qian was a little unhappy with his wife's reaction. Can't you get a little excited with Zhao Qian?
Putting down what was written, Zhao Qian went out to take a look. Seeing that his wife had settled down the children, Zhao Qian poured a glass of water for his wife. His wife didn't drink water, but just looked at Zhao Qian calmly, and that gaze probably meant 'if you have something to say'.
Zhao Qian could only say: "You don't seem to care at all about me being the prefect." ”
"I care." Zhao Qian's wife replied: "When others are prefects, they use all their strength. I just know how to deal with that. I don't know how to deal with you. ”
After hearing this, Zhao Qian's discouragement in his heart was indescribable. His wife told the truth that Zhao Qian had never thought of, according to Zhao Qian's thoughts, he himself was also an extremely motivated guy. Everything today is Zhao Qian's hard work every day. But according to what Zhao Qian's wife said, what Zhao Qian could get was a way that Zhao Qian didn't expect. Because Zhao Qian is the eldest son of Zhao Jiaren, let alone a prefect, even if it is the emperor's throne, it will only wait for Zhao Jiaren to die and will naturally be sent to Zhao Qian.
These words were too true, so Zhao Qian only felt very resistant in his heart. From childhood to adulthood, Zhao Qian's education was about people relying on their own efforts to make progress.
Standing up, Zhao Qian went back to the study. Sitting at the desk, Zhao Qian only felt inexplicably irritable. The already cumbersome tables look even more disgusting. Until late at night, when Zhao Qian had to go to sleep, most of the case contents were still empty.
After waking up the next day, Zhao Qian still felt empty in his heart. Yesterday's bad things are still weighing on his heart, so he can't lift any spirits. Sitting down at the table, Zhao Qian only felt that everything looked very gloomy, he didn't expect his life to be so boring. It turned out to be just a path that had been set for a long time.
After eating listlessly at noon, Zhao Qian sat down for a while. In the end, he really couldn't stand this mood, so he ran directly to find his father Zhao Jiaren. Along the way, Zhao Qian thought about it and felt that he would simply refuse it. After seeing his father, Zhao Qian bluntly said that he wanted to refuse to be the prefect of Ningbo.
Zhao Jiaren looked at his son, and didn't know what Zhao Qian was going to make trouble for a while. After a pause, he asked, "You don't want to be the prefect of Ningbo, what do you want to do?" ”
Zhao Qian said with a stagger: "I don't know now." I just want to do something more groundbreaking. Do something that I try to create on my own. ”
"What do you want to create?" Zhao Jiaren asked.
“…… I want to go to Henan and engage in big agriculture there. Anyway, what I studied is water conservancy construction, so I should be able to do it. ”
Zhao Jiaren was silent for a while, his son's performance was very good, but this performance gave Zhao Jiaren an indescribable feeling. Zhao Jiaren couldn't help but ask, "What the hell is going on." ”
"Nothing." Zhao Qian naturally said something similar to that of a child.
"Da Lang, you have to explain this matter to me clearly." Zhao Jiaren is not the kind of person whose son will give up if he says a few words, 'I won't tell you, I won't tell you'. Zhao Qian is the future heir of the Great Song Dynasty, and Zhao Jiaren doesn't want his son to end up as a waste. That is not only about the fate of the Great Song Dynasty, but also makes Zhao Jiaren feel ashamed.
Zhao Qian felt that his heart was very blocked, and he hesitated for a while, but he still told his father about his feelings. Especially something that I suddenly realized.
Zhao Jiaren listened quietly. Although he almost couldn't hold back several times in the middle, he still forcibly held back and listened quietly. Until Zhao Qian finished speaking, Zhao Jiaren stood up, walked to the window with his hands behind his back and stood for a moment. Then he lit a cigarette, went out of the house, and began to pace in the yard.
For so many years, Zhao Jiaren has always felt that he could solve the problem. But today he suddenly found that he was still too tender. When he was working as a psychiatrist, Zhao Jiaren also met some second-generation people, and they felt that they were in pain. Because they feel that the world is very unkind to them. This kind of second generation has a characteristic, that is, they feel that they can accept hardship, but they can't accept failure.
For these second generations, their elders also have similar opinions. The guys who started the family business were completely tolerant of these children failing, but they could not accept, or understand, why these children would be so easily defeated by failure.
Just like Zhao Qian suddenly discovered now that this world should rely on ability to improve, and then found that his efforts were actually meaningless. Whether he tries hard or not, he will be promoted to the supreme throne. This feeling is also a torture for a young man who is constantly trying.
Zhao Qian secretly walked to Zhao Jiaren's side and whispered, "Dad, are you angry?" ”
"I won't be angry with you for pursuing it." Zhao Jiaren said with a smile. At this time, Zhao Jiaren found that what he wanted most was for his son to be able to regain his strength from such a depression.
"Then why don't you speak? Come out and go, with your decision, it will never drag on for so long. Zhao Qian couldn't understand what was going on with his father.
Zhao Jiaren sighed. He and Zhao Qian sat down under the flower stand in the courtyard together, and then talked about the second generation that Zhao Jiaren knew.
"Zhao Qian, anyone thinks that what they already have is a matter of course. From a materialist point of view, this means that the human brain is simply unable to keep everything it has seen in its mind, and then call it up and analyze it one by one after encountering it. Human beings can only get themselves accustomed to an environment, and in this accustomed environment can they be proficient and solve various problems to the greatest extent. ”
Zhao Qian's mood couldn't accept this at this time, so he could only nod sullenly. Zhao Jiaren saw Zhao Qian's appearance, and didn't say more, but called Zhao Qian's guards over and ordered the guards: "I'll give you a task to supervise Zhao Qian to go to honest fitness exercises." Let him move thoroughly. Be able to exercise for at least three days in a row. ”
Waiting for the guards to surround Zhao Qian and leave, Zhao Jiaren called Wen Tianxiang, the secretary of the ministry, and as soon as they met, Zhao Jiaren said: "Rui Song, I used to propose to give me a vacation every year, and I am going to formulate it to see if it can be implemented this year." ”
"Why did the official family think of this?" Wen Tianxiang was a little puzzled.
"The threat from the north has been largely lifted. Even if there is a nomadic tribe who does not know death, it may not even be able to break through the Yin Mountain or the Hexi Corridor. Now that the situation has reached this point, it is time for everyone to relax. ”
Wen Tianxiang did not object. There have been many complaints from officials in recent years, and according to Zhao Jiaren, there is a gap between the agricultural society and the industrial society. In the past, officials didn't have to come to work every day, there were not many things to do at that time, and officials could spend half of their time on work every year, and they were extremely diligent officials.
"In addition, Zhao Qian's matter of going to Qingyuan Mansion will stop first. I have other arrangements. Zhao Jiaren said.
"Why?" Wen Tianxiang asked. The officials have already spent a lot of effort to prepare for this matter, and Zhao Qian's little thing is actually nothing at all. If it's just Zhao Qian going to mix with the prefect of Ningbo, it won't be anything at all. How could a group of old bureaucrats not be able to deal with it. If you really want Zhao Qian to do something, you have to match the team well.
"Nothing. I just want to stop. "Zhao Jiaren took out the attitude of the feudal monarch of 'you can do it, you can do it, and if you can't do it', you can do it'.
Wen Tianxiang did not object. He can oppose the decision made by the official, but he can't force the official to make a decision.
When this matter was over, Zhao Jiaren also felt much better. Zhao Jiaren was very happy to learn about his son's latest mental trends. Then a guy who made Zhao Jiaren relatively nervous, Liu Chong, the chairman of the anti-rebellion committee, came to ask for a meeting.
The two sat down, and Liu Chong immediately said: "The official family, the monks of Ningbo Mansion have made trouble. ”
"The monks are going to rebel?" Zhao Jiaren said with a smile. He actually knew that this was impossible, unless the monk turned to the White Lotus Sect or the Maitreya Sect and other martial arts sects, there was no convincing power to rebel. What's more, there is not enough manpower when the monks rebel now. Now there is a wave of immigrants returning to the Central Plains and returning to Hebei throughout the country. The poor are gone, and few of the rich will run to rebel.
Liu Chong knew that Zhao Jiaren was joking, but he didn't care, and replied directly: "The monks didn't rebel, but some True God Sect and Cross Sect have a bit of this meaning." ”
"Uh-huh." Zhao Jiaren nodded. The True God and Cross guys have a tendency to do this. Because between the people's identity and the cult identity of the country, the three Semitic cults will give priority to the cult identity. This is dictated by their teachings. In fact, this is true of any religion, even Taoism.
"There are still some remnants of Mingjiao who want to rebel." Liu Pet followed.
