Chapter 406: Huddle

Zhao Kuo is also dealing with a lot of things related to the reform and change of the law, Zhao State, or the Warring States Period, all countries are no strangers to the change of the law, and among the countries that still exist now, except for Zhou, they have all changed the law.

Even Wei Guo and Lu were both countries that were at the forefront of reform in the Spring and Autumn Period, and the initial tax was the first to be carried out by Lu State.

As for Zhou, people are in a special situation, and there is no way.

Back then, the Jin Kingdom liked to toss, and Han Zhaowei, who inherited the Jin Kingdom, also liked to toss.

Perhaps it was the pressure brought about by the competition of various countries, and the resistance to changing the law during the Warring States Period was far less than that of the later unified dynasties.

However, except for Zhao, all countries chose to use courtiers to preside over the law change.

The monarch is hidden behind the scenes, and the ministers are in the front, and if the change fails, the courtiers happen to be the scapegoats.

Even if the reform is successful, it will offend some people, and when the time comes, killing the courtiers who preside over the reform can resolve the national contradictions, just like Qin killed Shang Ying.

Only King Zhao Wuling did not have the same as other countries, but chose to personally preside over the law change, perhaps because he was simple-minded and did not think of this. Or maybe he's brilliant and disdainful. I, King Zhao Wuling, want to personally reform and change the law, so why hide behind the scenes.

Zhao Kuo also did not find someone to replace him, but decided to do it himself like King Zhao Wuling, and presided over the reform of the law.

The details of the optimization of the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs have been submitted, and Zhao Kuo has never been more serious, and he comes to the study every day before dawn to deal with government affairs.

He had to read each of these contents carefully, thinking about the benefits of doing so, and the possible drawbacks, some of which could be seen at a glance, and some of which even Zhao Kuo had to think about for a long time and deduce with the help of talent.

Any small matter of government affairs involves all aspects, and it is more difficult to deduce it than war.

Generally, if there is something inappropriate, Zhao Kuo will call it back and ask the person in charge to reformulate it, if it still doesn't work, he will hand it over to Wei Wuji. At this time, Wei Wuji would gather a few people, hold a small meeting to discuss, and hand over the results to Zhao Kuo.

By the middle of December, officials from almost everywhere had rushed to Handan, even Lejian in Helan County.

In fact, he set off later than many people.

But I couldn't stand the speed, so I flew in a straight line. Between Helan and Handan, if drawn into a straight line, it is much closer than some places. And as a transcendent martial artist who can fly and hurry, as long as he doesn't carry other drags, his speed is still very fast.

This is an innate advantage, and those civil officials who ride in horse-drawn carriages and ox-carts cannot envy it.

"Your Excellency, you've arrived." Flying is not allowed in the city of Handan, and after Lejian arrived in Handan, he was just about to land in front of the city gate when he saw a chestnut-bellied carriage coming from a distance.

Chestnut opened the curtain, looked up and down at the music room, and immediately understood how the music room came over, and couldn't help but feel a little envious in his heart, although the civil officials and military generals have their own advantages, but in terms of flying, civil officials are no better than military generals in any case.

"Is Le Junshou going back to the house first, or will he go with me to meet the king." Chestnut asked.

As the governor of Hetao, after returning to the capital, he inevitably reported to Zhao Kuo about his work in the past few months. And...... At such a time, the various regions must compete for benefits, and he, the governor, must personally go into battle.

Although Zhao Guo has set the tone of focusing on the development of the Hetao in the next few years, how much benefit he can strive for depends on his ability as a governor.

Sometimes, even if someone else has prepared it for you, if you don't fight for it, you will be snatched away by others.

"Let's go see the king." Rakuma had wanted to go home, but he hadn't seen his wife and children for a long time. But since Chestnut is going to see the king, let's go together, anyway, it's not bad for a while.

Lejian's political sensitivity is not low, and when he first arrived in Handan, he went to see Zhao Kuo without bathing and changing clothes, which was definitely not as simple as reporting work.

When can't I report at work?

Besides, the two didn't know each other for the first day, and they had worked together for nearly twenty years when they were in Yan Kingdom.

And Helan County, which he governs, is also under the jurisdiction of Liyu, if he goes with him, he will be able to take a share more than other county guards, after all, he has his own merits.

Thinking of this, Rakuma directly boarded the chestnut-belly carriage.

Along the way, many acquaintances greeted each other or invited each other to get together.

For example, Feng Ting, the county guard of Shangdang, and Jin Huang, the guard of Hejian County, have not seen each other for nearly two years since the First World War of Shangdang. In the past, in South Korea, the two could only be regarded as acquaintances, and they just nodded when they met.

After arriving in Zhao State, the relationship between the two naturally became much closer, officialdom is a place that needs to be held together, and they are fellow villagers, so they naturally have to help each other.

Just like those generals from the Yan State will automatically attach themselves to Le Yi, the officials from the Qi State will be attached to Tian Dan, and the officials from the Wei State will be attached to Wei Wuji.

It's inevitable, and no one can stop it.

There are relatively few officials from South Korea, except for Feng Ting and Jin Di, only Han Fei, so the three of them will be closer.

Together with Li Si and Huang Shigong of the Chu State, these are the most powerful forces from outside Zhao.

The local official eunuch forces of Zhao State are also divided into two parts, one part is the clan headed by Zhao Sheng and Zhao Bao, and the other part is the aristocratic forces led by Lian Po and Lin Xiangru, and also represents a part of the Han family.

Each force is not independent of each other, Zhao Sheng is Wei Wuji's brother-in-law, and although Xunzi is from Zhao, he is friendly with Lu Zhonglian, Zhou Zi and others in Qi.

Li Si of Chu State, Han Fei of South Korea is Xunzi's apprentice, Huang Shigong is Pang Xuan's junior brother, and so on.

There are also some officials who have just been dug up from the Qin State, although they are arranged by Zhao Kuo in various places, they will also report to the group to keep warm.

This kind of grouping is just a natural move between fellow villagers, far from rising to the level of party strife, and Zhao State does not have the soil for party strife, and even Qi State and Wei State have not been annexed, and these region-based officials are just rootless.

So Zhao Kuo won't suppress it, as long as he balances it.

The city has been renovated, and the mess caused by the rapid development has been effectively controlled, and there are government-built toilets on both sides of the road that can be used by pedestrians for free.

Every day, the manure is cleaned and transported to a manure tank outside the city, where it is fermented and sent to the farmland.

Mo Feng planned another city wall on the outskirts of Handan, preparing to use the previous city wall as an interior wall. The façade was halfway built, but it was stopped because of the ice, and the construction could not continue until it thawed.
