Chapter 88: Interview with Wang Xuance
When the gang left, Li Shen began to wonder who to look for. Li Shen needed someone who would be in charge of running the newspaper. To be precise, he wanted to find a staff officer. The military attache is Xue Rengui. The civilian lacks a man who can help him with his staff.
Wang Hongfu is a business manager. Politically, Wang Hongfu can't catch up with Li Shen. Li Shen thought about it, searched his intestines and scraped his stomach, looking for those celebrities in his memory. At this time, there are no capable people who have made great achievements.
After thinking about it for a quarter of an hour, Li Shen really thought of a capable person. It is rumored that Wang Xuance, a diplomat who destroyed a country by one person. This person is brave and resourceful, both civil and military, and his ancestors are all military generals.
If you find him to come to your house, it will definitely be a big help. Moreover, Li Shen remembered that Wang Xuance had never been a big official in his life. Probably because it doesn't matter. And he went to Tianzhu three times. It has not been in the relationship between the DPRK and China for more than ten years.
Just do it. Li Shen asked people to prepare a car to go to Menxia Province. He didn't know which department Wang Xuance was working in now. I can only go to the door and ask. Among the provincial servants under the door is Zheng Guogong Wei Zheng.
In fact, Li Shen also had a little brain pain when he saw Wei Zheng. This old man doesn't eat oil and salt, and there is no room for sand in his eyes. He has already sued Li Shimin more than once. What to compete with the people for profit is to lose royal face. Spending money is a waste of money. instructed Chang'an to be extravagant. There are all sorts of reasons.
This time, I really couldn't help it, so I went to him. It's better he's not there. Li Shen would be good if someone else would find Wang Xuance. Li Shen came to Menxia Province in a cranky way in the carriage. It's just that Wei Zheng's dream of not being there was shattered. After being informed, Wei Zheng came out to greet him. The prince is the first product, and the servant is the second product.
"His Royal Highness King Ji, I don't know what happened to my province" Wei Zheng still had that businesslike expression
"Zheng Guogong, this king is here to ask you to help me check someone. This person's name is Wang Xuance. I don't know where I am serving now. Li Shen didn't want to follow a poker face
"Oh. It's a trivial matter, and I'll let someone look it up. Wei Zheng called a squire and asked him to check on Wang Xuance. Then he said to Li Shen: "What is King Ji looking for this person?" he was very curious. It seems that Li Shen and Wang Xuance don't know each other. It's not like revenge.
"It doesn't matter." Li Shencai won't tell him. What to do in case of robbery
Wei Zheng saw that Li Shen was reluctant to say and didn't ask much. There is a pair of people chatting with Li Shen. Half an hour later, the squire brought a man. Twenty-five or sixteen years old. He is tall and handsome, and he is polite.
"His Royal Highness King Ji This is Wang Xuance, who is now serving in Honglu Temple, and his official residence is from Wupin to Chaosan," the waiter said to Li Shen. He really didn't take this official from the fifth grade seriously. If it weren't for Li Shen looking for him. He won't care. The squire is under the fourth grade, and he is several levels behind.
"Well, thank you. "Li Shen took two pieces of money from the stone and threw them to the waiter
Shilang and Wei Zheng were stunned. Tang Dynasty officials were the highest. Half money, half things. The four grades of the squire also cost ten yuan per month. It is not counted as a field and miscellaneous labor. This King Ji is used to two habits, which is already a lot. But this is Menxia Province, not your Ji Wangfu. Blatantly bribing officials, this King Ji really doesn't understand or is it deliberate.
"Lord Wang, I can't help it. I can't do it. This breaks the rules. The squire hurriedly waved his hand.
"Take it with confidence. If someone impeaches you, you say that I gave it to you, so that you can be safe. Besides, this is still given in front of Zheng Guogong, not privately. You can't do things for the king in vain. Li Shen said and put the money on the table, and said to Wang Xuance: "Prince, can you take a step to speak." So saying, he walked out
Wang Xuance looked at Li Shen and then at Wei Zheng, who nodded. So Wang Xuance followed Li Shen out of the room and came outside. Wang Xuance didn't know what a prince was doing.
He is now a doctor in Honglu Temple. It is equivalent to a reserve cadre. It's just that he doesn't know that he, who has worked all his life from Wupin, is still a reserve cadre.
"Dare to ask His Royal Highness King Ji what is the matter with the lower officials." Wang Xuance asked cautiously. He was also full of enthusiasm. But when it came to officialdom, especially in Chang'an, he knew that blood was useless.
"Then I'll get straight to the point. I heard that the prince is a talent. There is a shortage of a person in my house who has joined the army, and I don't know if the prince is willing to come to my house to serve. Li Shen looked at Wang Xuance and said bluntly.
"I don't know who the prince listened to." Although he was born in the gate. But the family is in the middle of the road. It can be regarded as a humble background. No one should recommend him
"You don't care about that. It's just that if you come to my house, it may delay your future, but the official may not become bigger. But you must make more money than you can be an official.
Your current fortune is no more than a hundred times a year. If you come to my house, I will multiply it for you tenfold.
A thousand times a year, your family can move to my Huangzhuang, I will give you 500 acres of Yongye field, 1,000 acres of job field, and after 20 years of work with me, I will give you another 1,000 acres.
If you are promoted and reused by the imperial court halfway, you will not be given back the five hundred Yongye fields.
And if you do a good job in the future, you will be given a boost, what do you think?" Li Shen is daughter buys horse bones, and it doesn't matter if the money is lacking in talents.
Wang Xuance deeply realized Li Shen's sincerity. Wei Zheng's annual income is only a thousand yuan, of course, this does not include other income. Zhenguan officials divided their income and expenditure into several items.
Let's just say that Li Shimin's reward to Wei Zheng is enough for him to serve for hundreds of years. Wang Xuance was thinking about the pros and cons in his heart. He is now just a loose official and has no real power. It doesn't matter, I don't know when I will be promoted. He'd seen someone who hadn't been promoted in his life. Following Li Shen may not have done nothing.
"How's it going?" Li Shen waited for Wang Xuance for a quarter of an hour, and when he saw Wang Xuance's expression, he seemed to have made up his mind, so he asked.
"Thanks to the prince's attention, Xuan Ce is willing to serve the prince, and he will be loyal before and after the saddle." Wang Xuance knelt down and pledged his allegiance to Li Shen.
"Okay, great. Then you prepare. Pack up. Come with me to the palace. I have something important for you to do," Li Shen helped Wang Xuance up, and Wang Xuance was happy in his heart. This is a great talent in both civil and military affairs. It's just that it wasn't born at the right time.
"But Lord Wang, the transfer of officials needs to be approved by the Ministry of Officials." Wang Xuance was afraid that Li Shen would not know.
"It's fine. You go and clean up, I can go into the palace now and ask me Aya to make a message. Save so much trouble. Li Shen said indifferently
Wang Xuance sighed that it was still the emperor's son who was easy to do. Matters that would have required a lot of formalities were solved in a single slip.
Li Shen went straight to the Liangyi Hall non-stop. And Wang Xuance needs to talk to Wei Zheng.
"What is His Royal Highness King Ji looking for you?" Wei Zheng asked, he was afraid that King Ji was doing something out of the ordinary.
"Go back to Duke Wei. King Ji came to me and wanted me to go to his house as a consultant and join the army. Wang Xuance didn't hide it either
"Consult to join the army, and it is five products. Are you familiar with King Ji before? Wei Zheng asked
"I don't know each other."
"Well, there you go. I think King Ji should go directly to His Majesty. Assist King Ji well" Wei Zheng nodded, and Wang Xuance saluted Wei Zheng and went back to Honglu Temple to pack his things.
