The Imperial History of the Extras (1)
When Zhao Xiyan woke up from his dream, it was almost evening.
"Did I sleep all afternoon? Why don't you wake me up." Zhao Xiyan whispered hated the hosta.
The hosta replied with a smile: "Your Royal Highness, the little princess is taken by the nurse, there is nothing to do in the palace, it is rare for the lady to sleep for a while, and the slave maid will make her own decisions."
Zhao Xiyan counted two sentences meaningfully, and that's it.
Staying until dark, Zhao Xiyan went to the Fuyou Palace. Xu Shiyi, Xu Qiliu and others, who were guarding outside the hall, hurriedly came forward to greet them.
Zhao Xiyan smiled casually and asked, "Has the emperor had dinner?"
"Not yet, the emperor ordered, wait for the queen to come and dine together." Xu Shiyi smiled diligently, waited for Zhao Xiyan to enter the hall, and accosted Jinzhan without a trace: "I have people prepare dinner. Sister marigold, sister primrose, go eat together."
Of course, you should be concerned about marrying a daughter-in-law.
Marigold was innocent, so she didn't think much about it, and thanked her with a smile. After sitting down at the small dining table, Marigold whispered to Primrose, "Brother Eleven is such a good man. Dinner was specially arranged for us every night, and lo and behold, there were vegetables and meat, and they were fragrant."
Primrose: "......"
Primrose smiled, picked up a thick piece of beef with chopsticks and stuffed it into her mouth, and vaguely responded, "That's right."
On this side, Zhao Xiyan and Xu Jing quickly had dinner, and then reviewed the folds together.
Zhao Xiyan watched the twists and turns for a few months, and gradually became familiar with state affairs. picked up a book and read it carefully, and said to Xu Jing: "It seems that there have been fewer excerpts to report civil unrest recently."
Xu Jing snorted: "There used to be one every ten days and a half months. After Li Xiao pacified the bandits in Taiyuan County, it stopped."
As he spoke, he sighed, "The imperial court really can't afford to fight. Taking advantage of this year's peace, we must encourage displaced people to return to their hometowns, or resettle on the spot and divide the land for farming. When the autumn grain is harvested, the people will have food to eat at home, and they will gradually be at peace."
Zhao Xiyan sighed: "It's easy to say, there are so many counties in Dajin, it's not easy to govern."
Xu Jing, the son of heaven, sees most of the six important ministers every day. A decree went down, passed layer upon layer, and how well the counties implemented it was impossible to control it for a while. net
Xu Jing also used a lot of brains for this: "The imperial court has limited control over the locality, and I think that from this year onwards, I will send the imperial historian to inspect the prefectures and counties. There are thirteen states in the Great Jin Dynasty, so they sent the thirteen royal histories out. The Emperor of Heaven inspected the corrupt and incompetent officials who were derelict in their duties, and those below the sixth grade could be cut first and then played. Officials of the sixth grade and above were escorted to Beijing and interrogated and convicted by the Criminal Department."
Zhao Xiyan thought for a while and said, "That's a good idea. However, this inspection of the imperial history must be a loyal and reliable person. The Thirteenth Route Imperial History was sent out, and the battle was too big. Sending all the way to the imperial history to make a show will also serve as a deterrent."
Xu Jing nodded: "This is indeed more secure."
Who are you going to send to be the first Qincha imperial history?
Don't think much about it.
Zhao Xiyan and Xu Jing glanced at each other, and the same name invariably floated in their minds.
"Let Meng Xi know." Xu Jing raised his eyebrows and smiled: "He has a hard temperament, he never talks about feelings, and even I dare to impeach. There is no one more suitable for this patrol of imperial history."
Zhao Xiyan looked approving: "He is indeed the best candidate. However, this errand has to go from place to place, which is the hardest and most offensive. You call him into the palace first and ask him. If he takes an errand, remember to send him more guards."
Otherwise, with Meng Xizhi's mouth and stinky temper, it is not uncommon for him to be hacked halfway.
Xu Jing touched his chin: "Sending two hundred guards to accompany you should be enough!"
The husband and wife laughed a few words and continued to review the folds. I was busy until the hour, and I didn't finish the recital of the day.
Xu Jing rubbed his sore temples and muttered, "I have to have you help me, otherwise I won't sleep every day."
Xu Jing felt full of bitterness, and he always complained every few days.
Zhao Xiyan smiled, took Xu Jing's hand and coaxed him: "When you are busy for this period of time, you will not go to court for a day." Take your own soldiers out of the palace on horseback to hunt and play for a day."
Xu Jing's eyes lit up: "Can you really take a day off?"
Look at this poor man. Since he ascended the throne last year, he has been busy from morning to night every day, and he has not even rested for the New Year.
Zhao Xiyan was amused and a little distressed: "The donkey can still rest for a while!" Why can't the dignified son of heaven rest. That's it. When the time comes, I will go with you."
Well, she also wants to go out of the palace to relax.
Xu Jing grinned: "Okay, let's go together." After thinking about it, he added: "I have to talk to the Queen Mother about this matter."
"Of course." Zhao Xiyan took over the conversation with a smile: "When the time comes, we will invite the Queen Mother to go out of the palace to relax."
Whether to go or not is a matter for Empress Dowager Su, they have to be invited.
The husband and wife held hands and happily went back to the Jiaofang Hall to sleep.
As for the old dream I had in the afternoon, it didn't matter anymore. Zhao Xiyan didn't mention it at all.
The next day, Xu Jing summoned Meng Yushi into the palace and asked Meng Yushi if he was willing to work hard for the imperial court.
When Meng Yushi asked this, he was excited at the time, and replied categorically: "The emperor is dedicated to the sake of the people of the Great Jin Dynasty, how dare Weichen say that he is hard. Please make an order immediately, and Weichen will be able to leave tomorrow."
Xu Jing's eyes looked at Meng Yushi, full of warmth like a landlord looking at a big animal: "It's not so urgent. I will ask you first, and since you are willing, I will announce this at the court meeting. By the way, which state do you want to go to in the thirteen states?"
Meng Yushi thought for a while and replied, "Weichen wants to go to Youzhou."
It's good to go to Youzhou!
Qiao's family is in Youzhou. Find a mistake, first deal with the history of Qiao Thorn, and make an example of killing chickens and monkeys.
Xu Jing rubbed his fingers and praised Meng Yushi with a smile: "Meng Yushi is dedicated to the country and the people, and he is not afraid of long distances and hard work, and I am very relieved."
Meng Yushi replied quietly: "Youzhou is located in a remote area, and it has always been far away from the court. Weichen is willing to be the eyes of the Son of Heaven and go to inspect Youzhou on behalf of the emperor. Wechen swore to the emperor that he would never wronged any official loyal to the Great Jin."
The implication is that if Qiao Tingshi is a good official who is innocent, don't think about framing indiscriminately.
He Meng Xi knows that he will never do anything that violates his conscience.
Xu Jing was not annoyed at all, and said with a smile: "Then I will entrust the important task of inspecting Youzhou to Meng Yushi.
With Qiao Thorn History as a person, how can an official be innocent?
Meng Yushi obviously also knew the grievances between the Qiao family and the Beihai Palace, so he took the initiative to invite Ying to Youzhou.
Six days later, at the court meeting, Xu Jing, the Son of Heaven, issued an order to order Meng Yushi to inspect the imperial history of Youzhou and inspect civil affairs on behalf of the Son of Heaven. Two hundred Praetorian guards accompanied him.
This errand is indeed a bit hard, but it is also a beautiful mistake to become famous. On behalf of the Son of Heaven, he inspected all the counties and counties in a state, held the Son of Heaven's sword, and officials below the sixth rank were cut first and then played......
Meng Yushi received the holy decree in the envious eyes of the ministers.
