Chapter 995 - Reform of the official system
Zhao Shen perked up when he heard this, and said with a shy and embarrassed face: "Grandfather, I don't love beautiful clothes, a gentleman is beautiful in the world, even if he is dressed in a tattered sack, his grandson wants to ask you for a way to support his family." ”
Zhao Song was moved to tears, and his face was relieved, "My grandson has grown up." ”
Then he said: "With your father, he is in the prime of life, and the work of supporting the family is entrusted to him, so you can take care of your injuries, and if you lack anything, tell the mountain people and let him prepare it for you." ”
Zhao Shen shook his head with a serious face, and said: "Grandfather doesn't know, I brought back more than 1,000 people this time, and they all have to eat and drink, so I have to support them, alas, it's a pity that I have no long things, and it is difficult to support myself, let alone them, so I want to ask my grandfather for a way to support my family." ”
When Zhao Ming heard this, he drank tea, lifted his eyelids and glanced at him, and sneered.
Zhao Song said happily: "Don't worry, those people and Sanniang have all raised them for you." ”
Zhao Shen's smile stiffened, "Raised it for me?" ”
"yes, don't you know?" Zhao Song said: "Sanniang on meritorious deeds, you and your friends have made meritorious contributions, at that time Sanniang asked their wishes, willing to join the army to make a career, she was included in the army, want to ask for a stable, she also let people divide the land and house, but also divided the money and food to settle down, it can be said that all aspects." ”
Zhao Shen: "...... How did I not know? ”
Zhao Song tilted his head, "Didn't I tell you?" ”
Zhao Shenmu shook his head with a face.
Zhao Song turned his head to blame Zhao Ming, "I'm too old to remember, why don't you remember to tell Shen'er?" ”
Zhao Ming: ...... Can he be blamed for this?
Zhao Shen also looked at him with a reproachful face.
Zhao Ming raised his eyebrows and looked at him with a smile.
It's okay if his father blames him, that's his son, where did Zhao Shen get the guts?
A pair of Zhao Ming's gazes, Zhao Shen immediately returned his gaze, the blaming look on his face disappeared instantly, and he honestly leaned back and didn't move.
Zhao Ming snorted coldly, simply put down the teacup, got up and looked at his son condescendingly: "The general has left you a very important position, I think your injuries are almost healed, you will go to the general tomorrow." ”
Because the imperial court was moving to Luoyang, it had to take a lot of things with it, so everyone was packing their luggage.
When Zhao Shen shook his hands and arrived at Zhao's house, the guards were moving boxes out and fixing them on the car.
Seeing Zhao Shen, a guard immediately stopped him, and then someone went in to report.
The emperor lived in the Zhao Mansion at this time, and Zhao Hanzhang was here, so the Zhao Mansion was very well guarded.
Zhao Hanzhang was reviewing the excerpts, and the little emperor was sitting beside her, going through the excerpts with a listless face, and Zhao Hanzhang also allowed him to write his suggestions on it.
It's a pity that the little emperor didn't write down a useful suggestion after reading it all morning.
Seeing someone coming in, he breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately got up and said, "General, you are busy, so I will retreat first." ”
Zhao Hanzhang put down his pen and got up, bowed down and said, "Congratulations to Your Majesty." ”
The little emperor hurriedly ran away as if there was a mad dog chasing after him.
Zhao Shen watched his back disappear, feeling that he was very much like Zhao Ce a few years ago, and ran away every time he mentioned reading.
Oh, by the way, Zhao Ce is one of his cousins, one of the famous sons of the Zhao family, I heard his grandfather say that he went to take the recruitment exam four times, and he went to Zhao Hanzhang's back door and failed to get out, and now he is looking for a way everywhere, Zhao Song hates iron and steel for this, and feels that he wasted a good name.
Zhao Shen retracted his gaze, looked up at Zhao Hanzhang, and smiled slightly, "Shen, meet the general." ”
Zhao Hanzhang smiled and waved his hand: "Cousin Shen doesn't have to be polite, please sit down." ”
Zhao Hanzhang's time was precious, so he didn't say too much greetings, and asked directly, "Is my cousin in good health?" Can you get around? ”
Zhao Shen paused, swallowed the words that came to his mouth, and replied honestly: "It's already good, you can travel." ”
Zhao Hanzhang smiled and said: "My cousin has great merit in the country, and he has the talent of a general, I am pleased, so I want to hire my cousin as a squire in the military department." ”
Zhao Shen was slightly stunned, "The squire of the military department? ”
"That's right," Zhao Hanzhang searched for it on the table and handed him an official document to read, "I plan to change the official system a little so that I can handle the affairs of the world, so that the officials will not neglect their administration, and the people can live in peace." ”
Zhao Shen opened it and saw that the excerpt should have been written by Zhao Hanzhang himself, and he had seen Zhao Hanzhang's letter from his father, with the same handwriting.
According to the excerpt, since the Eastern Han Dynasty governed state affairs with six Cao, the names of various officials and Cao have changed from time to time, so that the people are not clear about the responsibilities of officials, and even the officials themselves sometimes do not understand their respective rights and responsibilities.
Local officials often infringe on the law, and if they are stable today, Zhao Hanzhang hopes to clarify the rights and responsibilities of various officials, and if there is something in the local area in the future, there will be no accountability and no one can be found, and the reward will not be in place.
She changed the six Cao to the six, of which the five soldiers Cao was changed to the military department, and the other five were under the orders of Shangshu, in addition, she also clarified the responsibilities of Zhongshu Province and Menxia Province, after all, there are too many state affairs, Zhao Hanzhang does not want to die young even if he is a liver, so she wants to decentralize the government affairs system.
As for her, if the emperor can't be for the time being, let's be a prime minister for the time being, overseeing the government and managing hundreds of officials, which is also justifiable.
"I have read the "Ten Sparse Training" written by Cousin Shen to Uncle Ming, and I agree with some of the points of view, with my cousin's talent, he deserves the position of a squire in the military department."
Zhao Shen swallowed his saliva, and his shameful heart moved.
He stared at Zhao Hanzhang with blazing eyes and asked, "Which of the ten sparse does the general think is the most satisfactory?" ”
"Soldiers," Zhao Hanzhang said: "Raising soldiers in the field, serving as soldiers in wartime, farming as farmers, training soldiers in leisure time, and elite soldiers in addition to elite soldiers is one of the best ways to raise soldiers today." ”
Zhao Shen's eyes became brighter and brighter.
This is the letter he wrote to his father the year before last, although he and his father's letters are always missed, but most of the letters he sent back are returned, after all, he is mobile, but the home is not.
It was written to his father after hearing about Zhao Jiajun's prestige.
He had heard about the power of the Zhao family army from far away in Shu, and naturally knew that the Zhao family had undergone major changes, and it was no longer what it used to be.
But the more this happened, the more worried he became.
Raising a soldier can protect yourself, but it is a sharp sword with a double-edged edge, and it is very likely to cut yourself after a while.
Zhao Shen thought about how to make the family last for a long time, at least not to be injured by this sharp sword.
Even people like Wang Yan have to worry about the survival of the family, Zhao Shenzi is not exempt from vulgarity, and after thinking about it again and again, his advice to the family is to tie the soldiers to the land.
As a Chinese, no matter what class they are, they all have a deep affection for the land.
If you want to control the soldiers, the best way is to tie them to the land, not only to calm the army's heart, but also to solve part of the grain and grass problem, so that the Zhao clan will not be dragged down by the army.
Half of Zhao Hanzhang's current financial predicament comes from the army's huge expenditure.
