Maybe it wasn't open before, after all, he was only fifteen or sixteen years old, and some women were beautiful and lovely in their teens, but some were in an embarrassing period of appearance.

Geng Xian, who originally looked just a middle-aged person, was slim and elegant, like a noble and elegant lily in the wind.

couldn't help but light up and asked with a smile, "What have you been doing lately?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, in addition to taking care of Avi every day, the concubine is to read and practice calligraphy, play with flowers and plants, or come to the Queen Mother to sit here."

She has a graceful bearing, and she can see that she has lived a very fulfilling life, and she did not complain because Liu Zhi was cold.

"What books do you usually read?"

If you change to other harem beauties, when you encounter this problem, you will definitely say some relatively tall books to raise your value.

But Geng Xian replied very casually, "Most of them are miscellaneous books collected in the bazaar, and there are all kinds of strange things, just to have fun, it seems to pass the time." ”

This attitude is very similar to the Internet bookworms of later generations, Liu Zhi smiled heartily.

"Actually, I also like to read miscellaneous books, but I don't have time, so you can lend me a copy to read when you are free."

This book is a cash red envelope for reading books!

"Okay, what does Your Majesty like?"

Geng Xian chatted with him naturally, and the relationship looked like a friend, not very close.

"I don't particularly like anything, geography, music and rhythm travelogues, as long as it's interesting."

Seeing that the two were talking happily, the Empress Dowager Yun also took Xiao Liu Wei aside to play.

As the biological mother of the emperor's eldest son, Geng Xian has not had much favor for many years, and the Empress Dowager Yun has always pitied her and hopes that she can live better.

According to the rules formulated by Liu Zhi that day, the draft is held every five years, and this year is the year to select a good family.

It's just that due to the great drought in the world and the continuous plague, the whole court is sad and miserable, so no one mentioned it.

But no matter how late it is, it will be put on the agenda next year, if before that, Geng Xian can't get the holy favor, and when those newcomers enter the palace, I'm afraid there will be no chance.

In fact, Liu Zhi himself is not in a hurry, and it is just the case that he chooses a concubine or not, and now there are nine women around him, including the queen, which is not much for the emperor.

But he felt that it was enough, at least for the time being, he didn't want to fill the harem with too many women.

First, his main focus is still on the court, and there is not much time that can be allocated to the harem, and it has to be divided into many parts, so it will be even less.

Second, he has deeply realized that the Son of Heaven has no family affairs, and every change in the harem will be directly related to the power structure of the imperial court.

Today's imperial court should not add a large number of relatives, which will be very disadvantageous to him and the country.

What's more, he chose a concubine before for another reason, that is, he was worried that there would be no heir, but now that he has two princes, he naturally doesn't care so much.

At the beginning, he didn't have a good impression of Geng Xian, but he preferred Tian Mi, and later Geng Xian gave birth to a prince, and he took care of the queen's emotions.

Besides, the Geng family is a family and has some background, Liu Wei will definitely have the opportunity to compete for the crown prince in the future, and he doesn't want to cultivate another powerful family of relatives.

Therefore, she was also a little deliberately alienated from her, but she didn't expect her to be at ease and not surprised, which is very rare.

That night, Liu Zhi went to Concubine Geng's Chengguang Palace, and the two chatted for a while, and the conversation was very relaxed and comfortable.

This night is harmonious, and there is a sense of a long-term absence over a newlywed.

On the second day, Liu Zhi went to the Zhongde Hall in good spirits, and saw the Spring Festival Hall of the Concubine from afar on the way, and couldn't help but feel some pity in his heart, so he sent someone to reward some Ming jewelry to show comfort.

Today is not the usual day of the last dynasty, and the courtiers generally handle official affairs in their own departments, except for special matters and the need to see the emperor.

Liu Zhi was depressed yesterday, so he accumulated a lot of pieces, so he had to speed up at this time, so as not to pile up on the desk.

These days, most of the concerts are related to the epidemic, and Liu Zhi focused on the recitals in Yangzhou and Yuzhou.

It seems that the epidemic is still spreading outward and has not been contained, and Liu Zhi also knows that it should not be so fast.

After all, there are some specific laws in the spread of the plague, from latent to outbreak, and then to a period of high-speed spread, and finally it gradually weakens, until it dies down, and continues to lurk, waiting for the right opportunity for the next wave of blowouts.

According to previous experience, it takes about five months for a small outbreak to be suppressed, and about a year and a half for a medium-sized outbreak.

In the event of a large-scale plague, it is likely to take two or three years to completely suppress him.

Looking at this momentum, it is very likely that it is a large-scale outbreak, not to mention that the virus mutated this time.

Although, so far, there is no evidence that the plague after the mutation will be more contagious than the previous one.

However, it is an indisputable fact that the mortality rate of the new virus is higher, and it is at least 10% higher than the previous natural mortality rate.

Breaking the original half-point mortality rate.

This is a very dangerous sign that if an effective treatment is not found, the virus could become out of control if it mutates again.

Under his strong advocacy, although the medicine of the Han Dynasty has made rapid progress, it is still difficult to deal with the menacing plague because the foundation is too weak.

He can only hope that the new quarantine policy and disinfection methods can effectively reduce the spread of the virus, so as to end the plague ahead of schedule.

In his heart, the best outcome, that is, to control a big plague to the scale of a small plague, he was satisfied.

But counting the days, it has only been more than two months since the initial discovery of clues, and it is in the climax stage.

Therefore, although the epidemic is still spreading on the surface, Liu Zhi is not panicking, and the effectiveness of the anti-epidemic depends on whether the plague will decay from the fourth month.

Because Chen Fan dismissed a number of officials who were unfavorable for disaster relief on the spot, the highest rank was two county commanders, although as a state pastor, it was a special period, and he had the right to appoint and dismiss all the officials under him.

However, after the fact, it must be reported in detail to the officials and the emperor, and the officials will complete the recall documents after inspection, and the current county order is only temporary, and the imperial court also needs to appoint new officials.

However, some ordinary officials, Chen Fan directly promoted a group of people, and they only needed to report to the imperial court.

Chen Fan acted boldly and carefully, and did not want to be talked about, and the imperial history of Yangzhou also reported the investigation, which was no different from what he said.

As for the distribution of the various batches of materials, he also instructed his subordinates to make detailed records, and after checking the accounts of the first two batches, he quickly submitted them to the household department.

What is being distributed now is the batch sent by the imperial court, and these that Jingshi is preparing to transport over are all purchased by Liu Zhi out of his own pocket.

In the future, the accounts will also be submitted directly to him, and there is no need to pass the household accounting inspection.

Liu Zhi casually flipped through the account book, Chen Fan's accounts were very clear and organized, and he used the comparison specifications of the pictures and texts he issued and advocated.

In the accounts, in order to facilitate the record, Liu Zhi introduced Arabic numerals, saying that they were transmitted from Tianzhu.

Although the real number was invented by the ancient Indians in the seventh century, it was later spread around the world by the Arab Empire, so people mistakenly thought that the ancient Arabs created it.

Now, Liu Zhi can be regarded as correcting their names and giving them justice.

So far, Arabic numerals have only been used for bookkeeping, and have not been popularized in the entire field of arithmetic, but he believes that in a few years, the people of the Han Dynasty will appreciate the convenience and will gradually accept it in an all-round way.

Chen Fan's accounts are very relieved, they are clean, there is nothing to criticize, although Jiujiang County is the birthplace of the epidemic this year.

But with Dou Yun and Chen Fan personally in charge, I believe that soon, there will be good news slowly, and now he is more worried about Surabaya County, Yuzhou.

At first, Yuzhou did not pay attention to this, and there was no unified command of a great physician with enough influence.

Therefore, the people have little sense of prevention, and according to experience, the incubation period of typhoid fever plague is as long as four to fifteen days, and occasionally there are extreme cases of twenty days, or even thirty or forty days.

Therefore, there is no way to know how many people in Surabaya County have been infected, and it was not until Dou Yun later sent his proud protégé Xun Lun over that the situation began to change.

However, due to the unfavorable actions before, although it seems that the situation in Jiujiang County is a little easier at present, it is still difficult to say how many patients in the incubation period there are.

Mu Gongyue of Yuzhou is an old-fashioned and old-fashioned bureaucrat, although he is steady, he lacks courage.

Surabaya County Taishou Fang Guang is even more mediocre people, and under the condition of Liu Zhisan's strict epidemic prevention, he still delayed the best time in vain.

In this way, he also put all the faults on the side of Jiujiang County, and hurriedly put on a piece of music to shirk his responsibility.

Liu Zhi glanced at it casually, then snorted coldly and threw it aside.

Agent Long Linwei had already reported the real situation over there to him word for word, and it seemed that if he wanted to contain the epidemic quickly, he could only change to a Taishou as soon as possible.

There are not many capable ministers under him, and they are basically in the right position, and he really can't think of anyone for a while.

After thinking about it, he asked people to invite Yin Song, a secretary of the provincial university, to discuss, and replace the Taishou of Surabaya County in the battle, which is completely different from the change of the county order.

After all, Taishou is the lord of a county, and the court is already a pillar of the country, and every one of them is very important, and it affects the whole body.

Therefore, Liu Zhi cannot make decisions on the appointment and dismissal of the county guard, otherwise it will cause turmoil in the court.

Yin Song is well-read and has a strong memory, and he is very familiar with the personnel of the imperial court, and he can tell many officials of the sixth and seventh grades, not to mention that he is still a county guard from the second grade.

Liu Zhi took Fang Guang's recital, as well as Long Linwei's recital, and some of Chen Fan's recitals, to him first.

Yin Songzai looked at it carefully, pondered for a long time, and then said cautiously.

"Fang Guangqi is honest and upright, with an old-fashioned personality, but he lacks the ability to do things and does not know how to be flexible, and there is indeed a dereliction of duty in the fight against the epidemic.

However, Nian is not a corrupt official, and he has no experience to learn from before this matter, so he also asks His Majesty to open up the net, at most he will only be demoted.

I wonder what Your Majesty thinks? ”

Although the fight against the epidemic failed and many lives were unjustly lost, just like Yin Song said, he suddenly changed the epidemic prevention rules, and there are indeed many people who are at a loss.

Fang Guang is really unintentional, but his ability is really limited, he was appointed by the Empress Dowager Liang back then, and during the subsequent period of rectification, he did not find out any mistakes such as corruption.

After Liu Zhi took over the imperial court, although he made many reforms, he still could not shake the former bureaucracy, most of which were officials in the previous Shun Emperor period.

Of course, it is also related to the fact that there are too few people trained by Liu Zhi, and many people are not qualified enough to replace so many old people.

Moreover, Fang Guang is also from a family of eunuchs, and his family power should not be underestimated, so Yin Song made such a proposal after thinking about it again.

Liu Zhi actually means the same thing, in terms of the appointment and dismissal of officials, even if he is the emperor, it is impossible to do as he wants.

So he nodded, "Yes." ”

The two of them decided that the next court meeting would basically go through the motions and would not encounter too much resistance.

dismissed Fang Guang, and a new problem was placed in front of him, who should be sent to take over the mess in Surabaya County.

You must know that it is easy to say that it is easy to turn the tide when it is in danger, but there are a few people who can really do it.

Moreover, I'm afraid there are many people who don't want to go, knowing that it's a fire pit, who wants to jump in it.

In this case, if the epidemic cannot be controlled, won't you be in vain?

And even if it is controlled by luck in the end, there are too many people who die in front, and the big deal can only end up in a situation of no merit and no fault.

The two of them dragged the middle-level officials of the Han Dynasty all over the place, and finally fell on the same person, Chen Yu, the Taishan County Taishou.

Chen Yu was the leader of the first imperial examination, and he also arranged flowers to parade the streets and enjoyed the infinite scenery, but later he asked to be released, Liu Zhi was very optimistic about him, and sent him to Taishan County to make a county order.

At that time, Taishan County had just suffered a large-scale bandit disaster, and the situation was chaotic, and the county he went to was the old nest of the bandit leader Gongsun Ju, which had almost been ruined into ruins.

Under such circumstances, no one was willing to go there to take up his post, but Chen Yu went on the road overnight without saying a word.

Since then, his performance in Taishan County has been very eye-catching, and with the then Taishou Li Ying, the two of them will build Taishan County, which was a scorched earth after the war, to build it impressively.

Moreover, Chen Yu was the first county magistrate to carry out land reform, and he completed the re-measurement and distribution of land long before Liu Zhi issued the land policy.

And it was completed very successfully, which impressed all parts of the country.

Later, the imperial court commended him and Li Ying, and promoted Li Ying to Qingzhou Mu, and Chen Yu naturally became the Taishou of Taishan County.

It can be said that Chen Yu is a legend in the entire Han Dynasty, he is a real poor child, without the slightest background, relying entirely on personal efforts, step by step to get to his current position.

Chen Yu's ability to do things is also obvious to all, and in the past few years, he has built Taishan County into a very prosperous one.

It has long been judged from the dilapidated scene of the year, and there is no trace of the war disaster at all.

It's just that it's really unfair to transfer him to Surabaya County.
