Chapter 267: Shixian Order
Today, whether the outside world admits it or not, Wen Xian is already a well-deserved empress.
Therefore, it is reasonable for her to deal with government affairs.
Not only the government affairs of Northern Fujian Prefecture should be handled, but also the Guanping Mansion and the twenty cities sent by Wen Zhan in the north should also be handled.
However, before opening up all the northern cities, she can't deal with them all for the time being. At most, it can only deal with Guanping Mansion and Northern Fujian Mansion.
And it just so happens that there is no new prefect here in Northern Fujian, so Wen Xian can only make the final decision on matters big and small.
Since it is reported to the empress, it can't be too casual, so there are these simple twists and turns now.
This was still made by Jiang Chen and Bai Rose, Wen Xian was very helpless, but she also went with them.
Sooner or later, you have to get used to the criticism, and it's good to practice your hands now.
That being said, the arrival of the Shixian Order still made Wen Xian breathe a sigh of relief.
Shi Xianling is older than Shen Cheng, and from his half-white hair and all-white beard, it can be seen that he really works hard, and he doesn't worry much on weekdays.
In the face of the unsmiling Shi County Order, although Wen Xian did not show it on her face, she was actually a little bottomless in her heart.
Shixian Ling respectfully bowed to Wen Xian and said: "Minister Shijian, meet Your Majesty, long live Your Majesty, long live Long live." ”
The Kanto Prefecture of Shixian Decree is subordinate to the Guanping Mansion, and the Guanping Mansion is both prosperous and loss-making.
Shen Cheng, the prefect of Guanping Mansion, has already surrendered to Wen Xian. Then, the county under it should also follow in its footsteps.
Of course, people with other ideas are not excluded.
But judging from Shi County's current actions, he is obedient to Wenxian.
"Flat." Wen Xian hurriedly got up, gave Shi County a handful, and said, "Lord Shi has been traveling hard, I will let you take you down to rest first." ”
She just glanced at it, and the little servant of Shi Xian Ling was still waiting outside the door with a salute on his back.
Obviously, after the two arrived, they didn't even have time to catch their breath, so they came directly to see her.
Shi Xian Ling is a handful of years, and she is really a little reluctant to go.
However, Shi Xian Ling immediately knelt down again: "The old minister is panicking. ”
His Majesty has not rested, how dare he rest!
Wen Xian: ???
"Then we'll finish talking and we'll rest." The corners of her mouth twitched slightly, "Dark night, give Lord Shi a seat." ”
Since Shixian Ling was frightened, he refused to rest. Then she won't be too difficult and go straight to the point.
After Shi Xian Ling sat down, she said, "Lord Shi came here, how is the government affairs in Kanto County arranged?" ”
Don't look at it as a small county seat, if there is no one to guard it, it will also be a big mess.
Shi Xianling, who had just sat down, wanted to get up and reply again, and Wen Xian hurriedly pressed her hand and said, "Lord Shi doesn't need to be polite, just sit and reply." ”
However, Shi Xian Ling still knelt down and said: "Old minister, thank you Lord Longen!" ”
The corners of Wen Xian's mouth twitched slightly, and she couldn't help muttering in her heart, this Shixian order is really a bit old-fashioned as Shen Cheng said.
Fortunately, after this bowing, the Shixian order did not continue.
He sat upright and replied seriously: "Back to Your Majesty, the date of return to Northern Fujian Mansion this time has not been determined." The old minister temporarily entrusted the affairs of the county government to the county and the chief bookkeeper.
Day-to-day affairs can only be handled by agreement between the two people. If there is an emergency, send a message to the city and let Lord Shen decide. ”
From Kanto County to Fucheng, in comparison, it is always closer to Northern Fujian. If it is an urgent matter, it must be to go to Fucheng to find Shen Chenglai first.
Of course, he also made a special trip to instruct, but everything about going to Fucheng. Whoever decides must pass a copy to him at the same time.
"Lord Shi, good way." Wen Xian did not hesitate to praise, "In this case, the county and the chief bookkeeper are both people who can take the lead?" ”
If it is finally decided that the Shi County Order will be transferred as the prefect, then the Kanto County will also have to rearrange the new County Order.
If there are ready-made personnel, then Wen Xian is still willing to choose from the ready-made.
Shi Xian Ling nodded and said, "The two of them have been following me for ten years, and they are both people who can take the lead. ”
Wen Xian asked, "Then according to Lord Shi, if one of the two of him is promoted to be the county commander, who should be promoted?" ”
Shi Xianling's hand holding the teacup trembled slightly, and then he said cautiously: "This matter is decided by Your Majesty, although the county is more than ten years old, he is both competent." ”
Both of them were old men who had followed him for many years, and if it weren't for their outstanding abilities, he wouldn't have stayed so long.
Wen Xian raised her eyebrows and glanced at Shi Xianling meaningfully. Who said that people don't understand how to be flexible, this is not quite understandable.
Under the same conditions, the two of them give priority to the promotion of the elderly, which probably will not make the other person feel upset. Even if there were, there would be no dissatisfaction.
If the younger ones are promoted first, the older ones will be more or less uncomfortable. Maybe they will get in the way and do some wrong things.
However, since Shi Xianling didn't want to say it directly, she was not easy to make it difficult for her.
So, she looked at Shi Xian Ling and asked: "According to Lord Shi, how should the current Northern Fujian Mansion be governed in order to stabilize the people's hearts and restore the economy faster?" ”
The current predicament of Minbei Mansion is here, if Shixian Order comes, there is no better way, then she will definitely not let him come.
If he really has real talent and learning, then what if she promotes Shi County Ling to an official.
Shixian Ling knew Wen Xian's intentions, and he pondered for a moment before saying: "Northern Fujian Mansion is full of holes, and the most important thing at the moment is to stabilize the people's hearts and let the people live and work in peace and contentment."
His Majesty has decreed a reduction in taxes, which is already a great benefit. The next step is to return the scattered people to their hometowns, return their fields and houses, and let them return to their old lives. ”
He paused and said, "At present, it is impossible to win the grain of this season, so we can only let the people grow other vegetables first." If possible, the opening of the warehouse and the release of grain will be postponed for a month.
Northern Fujian Province is the same as Guanping Mansion, relying on the sea to eat the sea, even if there is no grain for this season, it can survive. Of course, it would be better if we could build a factory like Guanping Mansion to provide a living path for the people. ”
Wen Xian raised her eyebrows and said: "The factory will naturally be built, but the grain is not eaten in vain." ”
She continued: "However, I have new crops here to replace as a staple food. If necessary, you can let Lord Zhu Qingzhu teach it. ”
For example, taro, yam, chestnut, these can all be used as staple foods.
As long as there was no excessive forced labor and taxation, the people would soon be able to find their own way out.
"So very good," Shixian Ling's eyes lit up, "and then the next thing is to stabilize prices, restore the prices that were raised before to the previous level, so that the people can afford to ......."
The more Shixian Ling spoke, the more excited he became, from firewood, rice, oil and salt to farming, commerce, and the safety of Fucheng.
As long as you can say and think of anything, Shixian Ling has said it all.
From the temptation at the beginning, to the free speech afterwards. Under Wen Xian's questioning and approval, he spoke for two hours.
