Chapter 390: Formal Appointment
Fan Ning waited at the door of the imperial study for a while, and a eunuch came out and smiled: "Fan Zhizhou, please!" ”
Fan Ning was taken aback, why did this eunuch still call himself Fan Zhizhou? I'm out of office! He knew that these eunuchs were very cautious and would not call their official positions indiscriminately, did the Son of Heaven still want him to serve as the governor again?
Fan Ning walked to the door in a cranky way, looking at the pious face of another eunuch in the imperial study, his piety was opposite the owner of this room, Fan Ning suddenly woke up, why did the eunuch still call himself Zhizhou? These eunuchs don't care about the appointment and dismissal of the imperial court, they only recognize the emperor, and the emperor has not appointed himself to a new position, so he is still the governor of Kunzhou.
Thinking of this, Fan Ning was relieved, to be honest, he really didn't want to go to the local government anymore, at least not in the past few years, he knew very well what was going to happen in the next few years, and he couldn't help but leave the center of the court in the past few years.
Walking into the imperial study, I saw Zhao Zhen, the son of heaven, standing in front of the window and pondering, Fan Ning did not disturb, but stood quietly aside, after a while, Zhao Zhen also saw Fan Ning, and smiled: "I am a little distracted." ”
"Weichen see Your Majesty!"
"Excuse me!"
Zhao Zhen sat down and said with a smile: "I read Aiqing's debriefing report, and I am very interested in Aiqing's proposal to raise the island with the island, can you tell me more about it?" ”
In fact, 'raising an island with an island' is not a suggestion, but a sentence in the debriefing report, but it was this sentence that moved Zhao Zhen, and he didn't pay much attention to anything else, but this sentence aroused his interest.
Fan Ning sorted out his thoughts a little, and then said unhurriedly: "Raising the island with the island is actually just the lowest realm, simply put, it is not to increase the burden of the imperial court, when Kunzhou was established at the beginning, the imperial court invested a lot of resources, and the minister remembers very clearly, and the opposition was very loud at that time.......
During the three-year preparatory period, the imperial court spent a lot of money on shipbuilding, grain supply, and material preparation, and later the news of the creation of Kunzhou spread out, attracting a large number of opposition voices, 'Labor and money', this is the reason that opponents say the most, glossy and magnificent, and people cannot refute it.
However, as time passed, shiploads of supplies, gold and silver were brought back to the capital, and this opposition gradually faded.
Zhao Zhen nodded and said, "Raising an island with an island is the lowest realm, so I want to know what realm Kunzhou is now?" ”
"Back to Your Majesty, at present, Kunzhou is a medium realm, with an island to help the country, Kunzhou produces gold and silver, and will produce war horses in the future, but Kunzhou is too small to support the huge empire of the Great Song Dynasty, so Weichen can only say that it is an island to help the country."
Zhao Zhen slowly narrowed his eyes, and his tone became a little colder, "Then Aiqing means that if you find a huge island, it can use the island to support the country and feed our entire Great Song Dynasty?" ”
Fan Ning suddenly felt the coldness in Zhao Zhen's tone, and he was shocked in his heart, no! I must have said the wrong thing somewhere.
Fanning's heart was in a hurry, and the thoughts in his brain suddenly flew by like lightning.
The Son of Heaven shouldn't care about raising the country with an island, if he cared, when Kunzhou transported so much real money and silver and fifty foals, he wouldn't be so excited, Kunzhou sent a hundred taels of gold and sent 10 million taels of gold, the essence is the same, there is actually no difference between using the island to help the country and raising the country with the island, Fan Ning can feel that Zhao Zhen is still very profit-seeking in his bones.
Since it is not an island to raise a country, what will be the problem?
Fan Ning quickly relived what Zhao Zhen said just now in his mind, "Find a huge island, it can use the island to support the country and feed our entire Great Song Dynasty?" ’
'Huge! ’
These two words flashed in Fanning's mind like lightning, and it must be for this reason, otherwise why didn't the Son of Heaven say the big island, but emphasized 'huge', which shows that he is extremely sensitive to the scale of the island in his heart.
Thinking of this, Fanning swallowed back the Australia and America that he was about to say, and after a little groaning, he changed the way he said it.
"Your Majesty, Weichen means that if there are ten or twenty Kunzhou, it will be an island to raise the country."
There is no way, it seems that Zhao Zhen doesn't like too large overseas territories, so he has to split up.
Sure enough, when he said ten or twenty Kunzhou, Zhao Zhen's cold face immediately eased, and the sunshine returned to him, Fan Ning breathed a sigh of relief, he bet right, and sure enough, it was the word 'huge' that caused the trouble.
He was secretly scolding in his heart, this Emperor Renzong wanted to open up the territory again, but he did not tolerate the appearance of a huge overseas territory, what kind of strange imperial psychology was this?
In fact, Fan Ning probably guessed one thing in his heart, Zhao Zhen did not want a second Song Dynasty to appear, whether it was population or land, it would affect the status of the Central Empire to some extent.
Fan Ning also sensitively captured a weakness in Zhao Zhen's character, and Zhao Zhen didn't seem confident enough.
Zhao Zhen returned to his original smile on his face, nodded and said with a smile: "If there are ten Kunzhou, then it is really an island to raise a country, but it is a pity that the Liuqiu Mansion has not yet entered the realm of raising an island with an island, and it still needs a lot of subsidies from the imperial court every year, and I am sometimes very anxious!" ”
Fan Ning was silent for a moment and said: "Liuqiu Island is not the same as Kunzhou, Kunzhou can recruit a large number of laborers from Japan, so the progress of building cities and roads is very fast, but Liuqiu Mansion does not have this manpower advantage, and the progress is slow, Weichen thinks it is normal." ”
Zhao Zhen sighed softly, "You are right, some things are really not urgent, I can only take a long-term view, I hope that in ten years, the Liuqiu Mansion can be able to raise the island with the island, and I will feel satisfied." ”
Fan Ning didn't know what to say, and he didn't want to say more, he knew very well the truth that if he said too much, he would lose it, and if he said too much, maybe the eunuch would call him Fan Zhifu later.
After being silent for a long time, the atmosphere in the imperial study was also a little awkward, Zhao Zhen woke up from the exclamation of the convection of the palace, he smiled and said: "I am a little out of shape, now that you are no longer the governor of Kunzhou, you don't need to talk about Kunzhou." ”
Fan Ning's heart was relieved, and he finally stopped talking about overseas affairs, but he still pretended to be on his face, and he bowed slightly and said: "If Your Majesty needs to talk to Weichen about overseas affairs, Weichen can serve at any time!" ”
Zhao Zhen is still very satisfied with Fan Ning's attitude, people are not overseas, but their hearts must be overseas!
He also stopped talking about overseas matters, and said in a deep voice: "I have been thinking about how to place your new position in the past two days, you are a fourth-grade official, although it is the Zhizheng Hall who proposes a plan, but you are more special, I have always arranged your position, and this time is no exception, this point I have communicated with several ministers." ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness!"
Zhao Zhen smiled slightly: "I have been thinking about it for a long time, and I want you to go to the Courtyard of Governors, how about it?" ”
.........
Coming out of the Ziwei Palace, Fan Ning walked silently along a corridor, he felt a little bitter in his heart, he wanted the position of Yushi Zhongcheng, but Zhao Zhen let him take charge of the Academy, both seemed to be supervisory agencies, but one was below and the other was on top.
In the imperial history, Cheng is the supervisor of the hundred officials, and the court is the supervisor of the Son of Heaven, and the two are two ends of a straight line, and it is difficult to intersect.
"Little Fan!"
Fan Ning suddenly heard someone calling him behind him, and there were only two people in the court who called him Xiao Fan, one was Fu Bi, and the other was Han Qi, the two had an excellent relationship with Fan Zhongyan, and it was logical for the two to call themselves Xiao Fan by calling Fan Zhongyan Lao Fan.
Fan Ning turned around, and sure enough, it was Han Qi.
For Han Qi, Fan Ning has always been grateful, and he went out of the Yu Kingdom without authorization, if it wasn't for Han Qi's arguments and persuasion of the Son of Heaven and the Zhizheng Hall with what he saw and heard in Kunzhou, then I'm afraid that Zhang Yaozuo and others are still using this matter to beat themselves.
This kindness has always been remembered by Fanning.
Fan Ning hurriedly bowed and saluted, "See Xianggong!" ”
Han Qi smiled slightly, "I was just thinking about going out for a cup of tea, how about it, come with me!" ”
"How dare the juniors disobey!"
"Huh! Just have a cup of tea, and you don't need to talk like you're on the battlefield. ”
Fan Ning got into Han Qi's carriage, the carriage drove towards Xuande Gate, Fan Ning's carriage was still waiting outside Xuande Gate, Fan Ning told the coachman to go back first, and he and Han Qi came to the Yanglou Teahouse not far from Xuande.
The two went up to the second floor and asked for a private room, and a tea lady ordered a cup of tea for each of them, and the tea lady immediately retreated to the outhouse to sencha, which is the rule, when the guests talk, there can be no one around.
Han Qi tasted the tea without hurrying, but Fan Ning was a little uncontrollable and said, "The official family is ready to let me take charge of the Academy!" ”
Han Qi smiled and nodded, "I know that the official family was very interested in the article about the Kunzhou official in the "Chao Pao" yesterday, and it is estimated that the official family made up their minds to let you go to the Imperial Court at that time. ”
"Is there anything that can be done to change this outcome?"
Han Qi's thick eyebrows raised, "You're not satisfied!" ”
Fan Ning bit his lip and said, "Actually, I want to go to the Imperial Observatory!" ”
Han Qi's eyes widened suddenly, staring at Fan Ning for a long time and said, "Could it be that the article in the "Chaobao" is your ......?"
Fan Ning didn't want to hide Han Qi, nodded and said, "I deliberately went to find the "Chao Bao". ”
Han Qi pointed at him and said with a dumb smile: "I can't see that this kid of yours is so scheming!" ”
"But I miscalculated, I wanted to supervise the minister, but I became the son of supervision."
Han Qi stroked his beard and said, "Who told you that the Imperial Court can't supervise the minister?" ”
