Chapter 255: Shang Dynasty
Emperor Xuande looked at Su Heting, who was tall and upright, young and handsome: "Being able to know the sufferings of the people and solve the disasters of the people is a great talent!" Xiao Su Aiqing is this great talent in the world! ”
Su Heting hurriedly knelt down and thanked him.
Emperor Xuande waved his hand, "Get up and speak." I heard that you still want to stay in Tianqing County? ”
"Yes," Su Heting said loudly, "Although the great disaster in Tianqing County has been eliminated, I have not seen the people of Tianqing County live a stable and prosperous life, and I regret it."
"The minister and the young inherit the court training, and do things well from the beginning to the end, but now it is just a beginning, and I dare not slack off."
Emperor Xuande was very satisfied: "Since this is the case, then it will be played." It's just that you have a lot of credit, just a small seven-pin county order, and I really wronged you. On that day, when you were in the middle of the spring, I saw that you had the talent of the champion, but because you were young, I didn't even point to you, only to the second class. You feel wronged. ”
"The minister is not aggrieved." Su Heting bowed.
In the same year, the champion list did not make any achievements, and now he is still in the Hanlin Academy. Someone needs to record the court discussion today, and these three are also here, and at this moment their hearts are gushing with sour water.
is also a big living person with a head and two eyes, how can the gap be so big!
I also read the books of Confucius and Mencius, but I have been studying hard for 20 years, which is not as good as other people's ten years!
"But whenever I remember," Emperor Xuande sighed slightly, "I still feel that I have wronged you." With your talent, I should stay by my side and listen to your views on the world at all times. ”
"Your Majesty," Su Heting said, "the minister has a different opinion. Although the minister did not live in the splendid bush since he was a child, he was also worry-free about food and clothing, at that time, he only knew the hardship of studying, but did not know the hardship of the world. The minister has always thought that the world is like the feet of the Son of Heaven.
"It wasn't until the ministers were released as officials that I knew that the world was so big that His Majesty couldn't see it, smell it, and it was difficult to reach it.
"Being a minister is not only to be able to comment on the country and count the merits and demerits, but also to really solve problems for the king. Become the eyes and ears of the king, and make the decrees accessible.
"Those who are officials are called 'parent officials' by the people, but if they are parents, if they only want their children to be safe and smooth, and do not let them experience adversity and see the wind and rain, they seem to be beloved sons, but in fact they are equivalent to killing.
"The former sages said that 'the love of parents and children is far-reaching', parents should give their children the ability to withstand the wind and rain and see the world, so that they can broaden their horizons, exercise their abilities, and be able to take charge of themselves.
"No matter how high or low your achievements are, as long as you can stand on your own, you are not a failure.
"The minister governs Tianqing County with such an idea, the minister is not to pull the people of a county how to be, but to teach them how to use their own skills, use their own advantages to find a way to survive in the world.
"As long as every person in Tianqing County is working hard for the future, the minister believes that the future of Tianqing County will be beyond imagination!
"The minister thinks that the first priority in educating the people is not in 'teaching', but in 'guiding'.
"Good!" Su Dezhao high-fived and applauded, and then went out to face Emperor Xuande, "Your Majesty, please forgive the sin of forgetting your form." ”
Emperor Xuande's eyebrows were gentle, "I also want to praise it!" He took the lead and applauded.
Emperor Xuande took the lead in applauding, how dare the ministers lag behind, and for a time the court applauded thunderously.
Su Heting shook his head, "It's time to break the official." ”
Emperor Xuande stopped, raised his hands and pressed down, and the court regained calm, "Xiao Su Aiqing, your generous statement is very heartfelt. Lesbian you are bound to do things, I will give you 300,000 taels of silver. But you have to make sure that all this money is used for people's livelihood. ”
Su Heting knelt on his knees, "Minister, don't dare to have a heavy hope." ”
Emperor Xuande bowed slightly, "In addition, I have promoted you to the prefect of the fourth grade, and you will govern the entire Qingzhou Mansion, what you have to do is not only to lead the people of Tianqing County out of poverty, but also to make the entire Qingzhou Mansion look new."
"The years are short, life is limited, I promise you a three-year period, I don't know if you dare to respond?"
There was a brief silence in the entire courtroom, and in an instant, there was a buzzing of discussion.
The name of Qingzhou Mansion is unknown, but because Emperor Xuande summoned Su Heting unusually, the courtiers have done their homework, knowing that Qingzhou Mansion has always been poor and has accumulated disadvantages for a long time, and they want to make Qingzhou Mansion look new within three years, but I am afraid that it will not be easy!
Su Heting smiled slightly: "Your Majesty, the minister has responded!" ”
"Good!" Emperor Xuande laughed, "It's really hard for young people to be determined, it's rare, it's rare!" ”
"It's just that," Su Heting said embarrassedly, "Your Majesty only allows 300,000 silver to the ministers, I'm afraid it's not enough." ”
Emperor Xuande waved his hand, "The treasury is not inexhaustible, you can use these 300,000 taels first, I believe that with your ability, you will definitely be able to surprise me." ”
Su Dezhao interjected: "When you don't have enough to speak, Your Majesty will definitely consider it and add it." ”
Emperor Xuande looked at Su Dezhao silently, and glanced at Su Aiqing, I know that you are father and son, so you don't have to be so obvious! But you can't oppose it openly, just laugh it off.
Su Heting was busy thanking.
Emperor Xuande was about to announce his retirement from the dynasty.
Su Dezhao stepped forward and said again: "Your Majesty, the case of Dongjia Village in Tianqing County has shaken the government and the opposition, and there are many officials involved in the case. ”
Emperor Xuande rubbed the corners of his forehead, this matter involved a wide range of things, he originally thought that the law did not blame the public, and this matter was turned into a small matter, who would have thought that Su Dezhao would hold on to it.
Su Dezhao, as the prime minister of the dynasty, was in power and had a group of loyal supporters, and more than half of the courtiers knelt down to echo at that moment.
Su Heting also knelt down, "Your Majesty, the minister is the order of Tianqing County, and he knows Dongjia Village very well, and His Majesty's imperial case is above the court, and what he doesn't know, the minister knows." ”
He took out a stack of papers from his body and held it high above his head, "Please also ask Your Majesty to take a look!" ”
Emperor Xuande looked at the chief eunuch beside him, and the chief eunuch personally came down and took the paper in Su Heting's hand, roughly checked it, turned it over, and made sure that there were no dangerous goods, before turning around and presenting it to Emperor Xuande.
This is all a hand-painted panorama of Dongjia Village by Suheting.
The Dongjia Village on the first one is peaceful.
But then almost every one of them was filled with blood and tears. The plain white paper, the gray and black ink, presented only sadness and resentment in front of Emperor Xuande.
Emperor Xuande's hands began to tremble, "There are so many hidden ...... in a small village. Bones? ”
"This is just the tip of the iceberg," Su Heting took a deep breath, "The underground of Dongjia Village is almost hollowed out, and what is hidden inside is not only gold and silver jewelry, calligraphy and painting antiques, but also the secrets of court officials.
"Your Majesty, please think about it, if it is just an evil in the ordinary sense, what can you do with the handle of the court officials?"
