Chapter 54 Assumption of office
I heard that King Yue was sent to the Si Nong Division, and the few who were originally interested in approaching couldn't help but stop thinking. Originally, he had some plans in his heart, but he also retreated and only continued to wait and see.
Jiang Xiang was worried and sighed. The prince still has a long way to go.
Fortunately, it is September at this time, and the autumn harvest has been completed in most places, so there is no need to worry that the king of Yue will be sent to other places to guide planting.
Otherwise, King Yue would return to Beijing, and another pole would prop him up to a place where birds don't, so it would be better to stay in the imperial tomb.
After listening to his son talk about some arrangements of King Yue, Jiang Xiang's heart was slightly relieved. asked Prince Shangqi worriedly, but he could still comfort him.
Zhao Guangyuan did not express any dissatisfaction, and went to the Si Nong Division to report the next day.
Si Nongqing, Shaoqing, Governor and others, they didn't expect the emperor to arrange King Yue to come to Si Nongsi. Sincerely frightened, the officials of all sizes who led the government office came out to greet them.
Although they are the Department of Agriculture, although they are to persuade the world to farm, to take charge of the world's agriculture and water conservancy, and the government of famine in various places, it seems very important, but who doesn't know that they are soft-spoken.
The matter of farming in various places has its own arrangements from the local government and county governments, and they do not have so many people to send to various places to guide farming. As for the capital, they couldn't speak.
Land food is important, but who values them too.
There are only about a dozen people from Si Nongqing to the officials below, and there are only a few people with official positions, such as Si Nongqing, Shaoqing, governor, and director. Si Nongqing is only a fifth grade, and he doesn't even have the qualifications to go to the court. Not to mention the people under his hands.
People are soft-spoken, and the adults above don't want to hear them talk about farming and plowing soil, if it weren't for the founding ancestor himself to create this department, maybe it would have been abolished now.
It turned out that they were still self-contained, but later the household department refused to ask them, and kicked them to the Ministry of Industry, and the Ministry of Industry Shangshu pinched his nose to accept them, but he also felt that the Department of Agriculture was incompatible with the Ministry of Industry, and he didn't ask them to discuss things together.
Si Nong Si is becoming more and more like an invisible department.
"I've seen King Yue." Si Nongqing led the officials of the government office to salute King Yue.
Zhao Guangyuan stepped forward to support him, "Lord Yao doesn't have to be like this, it should be this king who salutes you." Then he dressed up and solemnly saluted, "Zhao Guangyuan, I have seen Lord Yao, Lord Du, and several adults. ”
Ouch. It's time to torment them.
"The king of Yue can't!" They all went to avoid, they were soft-spoken, and usually a small official of the Ministry of Industry did not take them seriously, but now the king of Yue saluted them.
"It should. This king is now sent by the emperor to serve in the Si Nong Division, and all of you are naturally the king's superiors. ”
His father was also very interesting, and only said that he was sent to the Department of Nong, and he did not say anything about any position, then he was an existence that everyone could command.
King Yue's actions won the favor of Si Nongsi. Although his face was serious, he knew how to be polite, and did not look up at them. is so approachable that people like it, Si Nongqing is determined.
Hearing that the emperor sent King Yue, everyone cried bitterly in their hearts. Originally, Si Nongsi was not taken seriously, but now another prince is pressing them, making them more and more unsure of how to act.
Si Nongqing Yao Yongyi was satisfied with King Yue's performance, but in the end, he was the prince and did not dare to slack off.
And rumors about King Yue are everywhere in Beijing, saying that he has guarded the imperial tomb for ten years, and when he saw the eldest son of the Jin Dynasty celebrating his first birthday, the whole capital came to congratulate, and the youngest sixteen princes were better off than him, and he was angry and pushed His Highness Sixteen into the water...... But the emperor was distressed, not only did not investigate his fault, but also arranged an errand for him.
Yao Yongyi thought about King Yue's performance just now, as if he was not like the person who had been imprisoned for ten years and had a distorted psychology as rumored by outsiders.
But maybe King Yue is acting coyly.
"Lord Wang, the lower officials will lead the Lord Wang Ye to go around first."
"It's fine."
Yao Yongyi led Zhao Guangyuan around the Si Nong Division, told him about the daily work of the Si Nong Division, and led him to the Ministry of Industry next door to say hello.
When the people of the Ministry of Industry saw King Yue, they did not dare to slack off, and they came forward to salute, and the Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry hurriedly came out to salute.
"Yao Yongyi, since the emperor sent King Yue to the Si Nong Division, it shows that he attaches great importance to the Si Nong Division, you must take care of the Yue Wang and take care of the affairs of the Si Nong Division together."
Shi Miao, the secretary of the Ministry of Works, explained to Yao Yongyi.
Yao Yongyi hurriedly responded, "Lord Shi, rest assured, the lower officials will definitely take care of King Yue." ”
Zhao Guangyuan glanced at Shi Miao lightly, and then saw that the Si Nong Division was facing the people in the Ministry of Industry, looking low and small, and his brows were furrowed.
I saw another person staring at him, looking up, a little familiar, but not the right number in his mind.
The man smiled and saluted King Yue, "Xia Guan An is always here, and I have seen King Yue." ”
Everybody? Zhao Guangyuan flipped through his mind, and only remembered this person after a moment. An Changzai, the squire of the Ministry of Works, the maternal ancestor of his Nine Emperor Brother King Jing.
Return salute: "Lord An is very polite." In the future, this king will serve in the Department of Agriculture, and I hope that Lord An will help him more. ”
"King Yue's words are serious. I heard that King Yue studied the technique of high yield in the imperial tomb, and he will be able to be like a fish in water in Si Nongsi. ”
"Borrow the auspicious words of Lord An."
After a turn, I returned to Si Nong. Yao Yongyi cleaned up a public room for King Yue and used it for him alone.
At the beginning of the founding of the country, the Si Nong Division was originally self-contained, and at that time, the government office was large and there were many personnel at all levels, how comfortable and free. But now he is squeezed into a corner of the Ministry of Industry, and more than a dozen people share an office, aggrieved. Now there is still a room for the exclusive use of King Yue, and the rest of the people are more and more crowded.
Zhao Guangyuan thought about it, but still accepted Lord Yao's kindness.
asked Master Yao for the file of Si Nongsi, and sat in the office and looked at it.
At noon, Cao Cuo brought him food, and Zhao Guangyuan saw that he took a lot, and took them out to share with his colleagues, and won the favor of Si Nong.
In the afternoon, after reading the file, Zhao Guangyuan called Shaoqing Du Zhishu to understand the situation.
Sinong Shaoqing Du Zhishu was also full of grievances.
More than ten generations of his family were poor peasants, and with the strength of the whole clan, he finally confessed to him, and at the age of eighteen, he was admitted to the Jinshi examination, and the county became famous. was about to show his strength, and when Dapeng spread his wings, because he had no connections, he was arranged to farm in the Si Nong Division.
In the past eight years, those in the same department as him have either been promoted to become wealthy, or they have become the parents of a place, and they have won the support of the people. Only him, who has been climbing for eight years, is still a seven-grade sesame official.
Every night, the tears of grievance can flow several cylinders.
Du Zhishu didn't know what King Yue called him, so he came in in fear. Seeing that King Yue's public house was small, it could only squeeze a table and two chairs, but the tears of envy were about to drown him.
He and Si Nongqing Yao don't have a public house alone. It's a terrible mix.
"The prince is looking for an official?"
Zhao Guangyuan nodded, "I heard that you are from Lizhou?" ”
