One hundred people, grab six posts.

Can you not roll it?

Besides, compared to the examination of the public in later generations, this is a small thing at the moment.

Han Zhen picked up a book of accounts casually.

On the thick book jacket, there is a line of large characters "Yidu County Household Registration Book, Outer City East, Volume 3".

When the accounts are opened, the first thing that catches your eye is the title page.

On the title page, the whole book of accounts is written in very beautiful plum blossom letters.

The so-called ordinary examples, it is said to be all examples.

It is the content and compilation style of a book, and the general content is described in the most concise and clear words.

Below the example is the table of contents, each of which is a street, down to the number of pages, at a glance.

For example, on pages 1 to 17, it is recorded that Huanyi Lane.

In the future, officials can quickly find the information they want to find by looking at the catalog information on the title page, which greatly improves the efficiency of handling errands.

After flipping through several household registers in a row, Han Zhen smiled with satisfaction: "This errand is done well, I will credit you." This period of time has been hard, and you are allowed to have a two-day holiday, which is not included in the rest, so you can rest and rest! ”

Liu Mi is greedy for money, but his talent cannot be denied because of this.

In fact, to be able to stand out from hundreds of thousands of people, enter high school, and mix to the fifth grade before the age of fifty, Ren Qingzhou is judged, if you want to say that he is a fool, no one will believe him.

Look at Changzhi County, after so many years, it is still a seven-grade county.

Liu Mi's previous style was just because the superiors were mediocre, which led to the entire officialdom environment.

An official of the Great Song Dynasty, he served a term of office every three years.

There is a small examination every year, a major examination every three years, and the final decision is whether to be promoted or transferred according to the political performance during the term of office.

However, by the time of Song Huizong, everything had changed.

Officials are transferred extremely frequently, and there are very few who have served for three years, and it often happens that they are transferred to other places by the imperial court within half a year of taking office.

Even, most of the way to take office was taken, but he suddenly received an order, and he had no choice but to rush to another place to take office.

In such a situation, how do officials govern the people?

Not to mention doing practical things, it is already good to be able to sort out the intertwined relationships between those gentry and big families under his rule.

Any policy for the benefit of the people is not achieved overnight, and it can take as little as one or two years to three or five years at most, or even longer to see results.

For example, people are encouraged to reclaim wasteland, and after the wasteland is cultivated, it will only bring benefits after at least one year.

Moreover, in ancient times, it was an extremely sinful thing to go on a long trip, and it often took two or three months, or even half a year, to the point that there was a tragedy of officials dying of illness on the road.

So what to do?

Work hard to make money.

Wouldn't it be beautiful to make more money, work up and down, and transfer back to Tokyo City to be a promoted official?

Where do you still need to suffer from the fatigue of traveling?

This is one of the reasons why Changzhi Prefecture is so obsessed with being transferred back to Tokyo City to become a promoted official.

"Thank you, County Magistrate!"

Liu Mi let out a sigh of relief, knowing that he had passed the test.

Since he personally killed Lu Shi and joined the army, he has completely gotten on Han Zhen's thief ship, and Zhao Song will definitely not be able to go back.

Killing the imperial court officials without authorization, or being a civil official of the sixth grade, even if Zhao Ji is hindered by the ancestral training, he will not cut off his head, but he is also indispensable to be exiled to Yazhou.

Exile in Yazhou is almost no different from death.

What's more, a few days ago, he had already repaired a letter and returned to his hometown, counting the time, his family was afraid that he had already arrived in Hongzhou, and in another ten days and half a month, he would be able to arrive in Yidu.

He and Zhao Ting are both human spirits, don't you know that Han Zhen left the lives of the two because it was still useful to leave their lives.

His life was saved, but what about the official?

has been an official and held power, especially a local high-ranking official like a state general sentence, and then let him go back to be a flat-headed commoner, Liu Mi is 10,000 unwilling.

If you want to keep your official position, you must show your talents.

During this period of getting along, he asked himself if he had figured out Han Zhen's temperament.

This is a non-inhibited doer.

As long as he has outstanding ability, abides by the rules, and has some small shortcomings, Han Zhen will not care.

"If the county magistrate is fine, the lower officials will retire first."

Liu Mi arched his hand, and a trace of exhaustion flashed in his eyes.

In order to continue to be an official, he also went out, and during this period of time, he was greedy for darkness early in the morning, and followed the gang of officials to sleep and forget to eat and run errands.

"Hmm."

Han Zhen nodded.

Suddenly, a deafening shout erupted outside the palace, and the sound seemed to come from the outer city.

Faintly, the sound of horses' hooves can be heard.

Han Zhen narrowed his eyes slightly, exuding a strong evil aura all over his body, and said in a deep voice: "Come on, go and see what's going on outside!" ”

Hearing this, the two soap officials on duty outside the lobby immediately ran towards the outside of the mansion.

Liu Mi and Zhao Ting glanced at each other, shocked and frightened.

Han Zhen's eyes were sharp, and his brain was spinning rapidly.

Mutiny or civil rebellion?

If you think about it, whether it is a mutiny or a popular uprising, it is unlikely.

Just as he was thinking, the two soap officials ran back from outside the government with a look of ecstasy, and shouted excitedly: "County magistrate, good news!" Shouguang and Changle won a great victory, 6,000 were killed, and 50,000 were captured! ”

Call!

Hearing that it was good news, Liu Mi and Zhao Ting immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately bowed down in unison and said, "Congratulations, exterminate the Dare Blazing Army!" ”

The eyes of the two were full of excitement and joy from the bottom of their hearts.

Since he got on Han Zhen's thief ship, it was naturally a road to the dark.

The stronger Han Zhen's strength became, the happier they became.

The evil qi on Han Zhen's body dissipated, and his face hummed lightly as usual.

Shouguang and Changle were as he expected, so there was no wave in his heart.

1,500 elite foot soldiers, plus more than 500 heavy cavalry, if this can't take a small Zhang Wanxian, then Nie Dong and Liu Qi don't have to come back.

Not long after, three dusty soldiers of the Qingzhou Army stepped into the gate of the government and went straight to the lobby.

The person at the head, Han Zhen has the impression that he is a team leader in the scout battalion, Luo Jing.

At this moment, Luo Jing was holding a wooden box in his hand, and after walking into the lobby, he bowed down and said: "County magistrate, Shouguang and Changle have won a great victory, 6,000 are killed, and 50,000 are captured!" The thief's first Zhang Wanxian was ambushed, the head is here, please take a look at the county magistrate! ”

As he spoke, he took a few steps forward and respectfully presented the wooden box on top of the court case.

Hearing this, Han Zhen reached out and opened the wooden box, revealing a head that had been pickled in lime.

Although he is dead, his face still exudes a ruthlessness, and his gloomy eyes are full of anger.

He doesn't have any bad taste, and he doesn't like to admire the heads of dead people.

As for whether this person is Zhang Wanxian, Han Zhen doesn't think that Nie Dong and Liu Qi have the courage to deceive themselves.

After glancing at it, he closed the wooden box and asked, "Is the Northern Navy aware of it?" ”

Luo Jing replied truthfully: "County magistrate, when we rushed to Changle, the Northern Navy had already evacuated. ”

"Hmm!"

Han Zhen nodded, a hint of satisfaction flashing in his eyes.

It is not difficult to win Shouguang and Changle, but it is done quickly, beautifully, and without startling the snake, which reflects the ability of Nie Dong and Liu Qi.

As it turned out, he was right.

"County magistrate, Nie Dutong and Shi Senjun both asked the lowly to bring back a letter."

Luo Jing took out two letters from his bosom and presented them again.

After receiving the letter, Han Zhen checked the fire paint and self-sealing as usual, and after confirming that it was correct, he opened it for inspection.

This letter was sent by Nie Dong, mainly asking him how Shouguang and Changle should be armed, how many troops should be left behind, and so on.

After thinking for a moment, Han Zhen took out a pen and paper, and the pen began to reply.

Fifty thousand prisoners of war may sound like a lot, but in fact, there are only 20,000 or 30,000 soldiers who are really used to fight.

In the letter, Han Zhen instructed Nie Dong to select the brave and brave men among the 20,000 or 30,000 daring soldiers, escort them back to Yidu, and hand over the remaining prisoners of war to Shi Wenhui for disposal.

In addition, the two counties each left behind 300 Qingzhou army foot soldiers.

Three hundred foot soldiers, enough.

Don't forget, there are a large number of former prisoners of war in the two counties, and these people have really gone into battle and killed people.

If an enemy army attacks the city, as long as the reward is in place and the ordnance is fired, a defender of thousands of men can be organized immediately.

In the end, Han Zhen ordered them to return to Yidu three days later, with the prisoners of war of the Wuwei Army and the Dare Blazing Army.

After writing a reply to Nie Dong, Han Zhen picked up Shi Wenhui's letter again.

The letter is very long, and it can be summed up in twelve words.

Pacify the prisoners of war, collect the fugitives, lightly pay off the poor, and develop commerce.

The Dare Blazing Army led by Zhang Wanxian was like a locust crossing the border, killing all the officials and gentry and landlords of Shouguang and Changle counties, and the degree of destruction was more complete than that of the previous Linzi County.

But this is a good thing for Han Zhen.

Today, the two counties are almost a blank slate.

As an official, you can splash pen and ink to your heart's content, show your ambitions in your chest, and have no constraints.

Quickly wrote a reply, Han Zhen handed the two letters to Luo Jing, and instructed: "Hurry up and send them to Shouguang and Changle!" ”

"Order!"

Luo Jing put the two letters close to him, and then hurried out of the lobby with two of his subordinates.

Looking at their departing backs, Han Zhen smiled at Liu Mi and said, "Liu Tong will go back and rest, and call those officials by the way." ”

"Retire!"

Liu Mi bowed and turned to leave.

Soon, a hundred officials transferred from Linzi County walked into the lobby one after another.

For a while, the originally spacious and empty lobby was suddenly crowded.

These officials all had dark circles under their eyes and looked sluggish, but their eyes were bright.

At this moment, the officials looked at Han Zhen with burning eyes, and there was a little apprehension in their excitement.

The scouts shouted, and they naturally heard it.

Shouguang and Changle have won a great victory, and the opportunity to be an official has come!

Looking around at the crowd, Han Zhen smiled slightly, patted the wooden box lightly with one hand, and said: "You should also know, Zhang Wanxian is punished, Shouguang and Changle counties have fallen into my hands. I promised that there were six shortages in the two counties, and now it's time to make good on it. ”

Hiss!

In the lobby, the eyes of the officials became even hotter, and their breathing became rapid and heavy.

"But ......"

Han Zhen's voice changed, and he pretended to be embarrassed: "However, the previous errands and others performed well, which really made it a little difficult for me to choose." So, I decided to hold a locked hall test in three days' time. The winner will be determined by the scientific examination, and the top six will be given an official uniform, and he will take office soon! Do you have any comments? ”

"Humble and opinion!"

A hundred people answered in unison.

Lock the hall test.

The winner is determined by the imperial examination.

No matter who can find fault, they just feel that Han Zhen's move is fair and just, which is exactly what they want.
