Chapter 152 Washing away the dirt on the green shirt and chariot road (2)
The patrol team meandered for several miles on the main road in Puzhou.
On a summer day in April, there is still a slightly cool wind blowing in this northern land.
On the plains, you can see wild flowers blooming everywhere on the edges of the fields. The trees have gone all out to put on green clothes and sway proudly in the warm river wind blowing along the ravines.
In one of the carriages, Zhao Si sat in the back seat, and Chang Anmin sat opposite him. Being so close and face to face made him very uncomfortable.
"Mr. Xigu, I am very satisfied with your work in Hedong!"
Zhao Si's words made Chang Anmin feel warm in his heart. The discomfort all over his body gradually disappeared, replaced by an indescribable excitement.
"Hedong is the front line of the Liao Dynasty and the heart of the Song Dynasty. After Lin Gong (Lin Xi) died of illness, you took over the government affairs of Hedong. You must not only assist Wang Shi (Wang Zhen) in running the Taiyuan defense group, but also promote the local government
In addition to institutional reform, we also need to take into account the work of guiding the New Deal pilot counties in Puzhou and Luzhou. Everything is arduous, but you did not delay any of it, which is rare! Mr. Xigu, thank you for your hard work in the past two years!"
Chang Anmin's face turned slightly red due to the excitement in his heart. Years of cultivation allowed him to restrain the bitterness in his heart and the urge to cry.
"It is the duty of an minister to do these duties, and I highly recommend them to the officials!"
Chang Anmin replied hoarsely.
"Things in Hedong, like Hebei, are not easy to handle. There are the Northern Liao Dynasty who are watching eagerly from outside, and there are local aristocratic families clamping down on the inside. We must implement the New Deal and make practical things, but we must not go to war and cause turmoil. Mr. Xigu can control the heat here.
very nice."
"It's just that the local forces are complicated and involved in countless connections. It's hard to do things below, but there are Shangshu Sheng above who are desperately trying to do the job. I know Mr. Zhang, and if he doesn't get what he wants, he will
The official document was filled with angrily scoldings and no dignity at all. Mr. Xigu, I know all the grievances you have suffered!"
Chang Anmin's voice was a little more throaty.
People all over the world say that today's officials are resolute and harsh, and it is difficult to work under them.
But Ru Chang Anmin and others all know that as long as you work hard, he will be more kind than the late Emperor Renzong.
He is wise and knowledgeable, strong and soft at the same time. Zhang Dun, Xu Jiang, Su Che, Zhang Shuye, Changsun Moli and other important officials in the court are all great talents in the world. How could they be willing to be driven around if they were not truly impressed by His Majesty?
?
"To get these few words from your majesty, no matter how much hardship I endure, it will all be worth it. Your Majesty is worried about the humiliation of your ministers, and your majesty is worried about the world, and strives to revive the Song Dynasty. As a minister, you must be conscientious and abide by your duties.
.”
Chang Anmin's heartfelt words moved Zhao Si also.
"Taizong of the Tang Dynasty has a poem that says, 'The strong wind knows the strong grass, and the rough and turbulent times know the loyal minister.' The more unpredictable the moment and the difficult and difficult environment, the more we can see the true nature of a loyal minister. Loyal ministers cannot just rely on words.
Who is a loyal minister if he scolds all the civil and military officials and singles out the ills of current affairs? Listen to his words and watch his actions. Only when you bend down and be willing to do practical and beneficial things for the Song Dynasty, for this land and its people, can you be considered a loyal minister.
He is my loyal minister of the Song Dynasty."
"I inherited the legacy and ambition of my father and brother. I want to make the Song Dynasty stronger and the people more prosperous. I have worked hard and worried day and night. Fortunately, I have good ministers like Mr. Zhang Gong and Mr. Xigu who have outstanding talents and are truly loyal. I am not alone!"
Chang Anmin couldn't bear it any longer and burst into tears. He hurriedly wiped away his tears and said with a smile: "I'm so disrespectful and the officials are laughing at me."
Zhao Si laughed and said, "My tears were a step slower than Mr. Xigu's. They were about to burst out of my eyes, but I was held back by your words."
After a few jokes, the atmosphere in the car became more relaxed.
Zhao Si continued the topic: "Mr. Xigu, do you know about the adjustment of Shangshu Provincial Prime Minister's Office?"
"When I go back to the official house, I have read the report in Donghua Chaobao." Chang Anmin replied cautiously.
"I originally wanted Duke Zhang to complete his five-year term and make an appointment with all the monarchs and ministers. However, in the past two years, Duke Zhang has worked hard and sacrificed too much. A person who is less than seventy years old is older than a person who is seventy or eighty years old.
.”
Having said this, Zhao Si sighed, "I couldn't bear to let state affairs consume Zhang Gong's hard work, and finally agreed to him until the end of the year. As for the candidate to take over as Dazai, the opinions of the officials in the court were compared with Chong Yuan Gong (General Xu).
Consistent.”
"Now that Duke Chong Yuan has been transferred to Zuopushe, Mr. Xigu must also know the meaning of this. As long as there are no major accidents, Duke Chong Yuan should be appointed as Dazai and in charge of state affairs."
Having said this, Zhao Si looked at Chang Anmin and involuntarily held the edge of the car window with his left hand, tapping lightly with his fingers.
Chang Anmin also knew that officials had to mention important matters, so he sat upright.
"The Ministry of Finance is going to make some major adjustments. I want you to be the Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs."
Having said this, Zhao Si paused and considered the words in his mind.
"Previously, the post of Minister of the Ministry of Personnel was concurrently held by Huang Gong (Huang Fu). Huang Gong was more cautious than courageous. The work of the Ministry of Personnel was heavy and complicated, including the admission, training, appointment and dismissal, and examination of tens of thousands of officials in the Song Dynasty. How many relationships were involved in it
, only those with great courage and means can do it. Huang Gong...is equivalent to Zhang Gong's mouthpiece in the official department."
Chang Anmin could tell that the officials were dissatisfied with Huang Fu's work.
"The work of the Ministry of Personnel requires Zhang Gong to make decisions and take charge. But how many major issues are waiting for Shangshu to deal with, and how much energy and time can be allocated to take care of the work of the Ministry of Personnel? So far, the Ministry of Personnel seems to have achieved some results
——The legacy and recommendation systems were abolished; a recruitment system was initially established based on the imperial examination system; a junior college was established; many junior college classes were established, and some officials were trained..."
Zhao Si unceremoniously pointed out the problem of the personnel department. "But the most important examination method is still hanging in the air! Training suitable officials is one thing, and more importantly, using systems to supervise and manage them. There is no
No matter how strict the supervision and management system is, no matter how well-trained officials are, they will deteriorate sooner or later in muddy waters."
"The filtration system is not done well, and there is no way to filter the muddy water. No matter how much clean water is injected, it will become muddy, and then pollute the subsequent clean water." Zhao Si looked a little ugly, "If the test method is not implemented, the subsequent degree will be
The budget system, accountability system, rectification and discipline...etc. cannot be followed up."
"I have always emphasized that after the correct route is determined, officials are the decisive factor. Officials are our new force in reviving the Song Dynasty. Building an official team that meets the requirements of the Apocalypse New Deal is an important part of my expectations for the Shangshu Province and the Ministry of Personnel.
One of the tasks. Unfortunately, the Ministry of Civil Affairs and the Ministry of Finance have not completed this important task after more than three years of work."
Having said this, Zhao Si looked at Chang Anmin and said expectantly: "Mr. Xigu's political achievements in Hedong show that you have the means and courage. I believe that under your leadership, the civil service department will take on a new look and build a new world."
A good team of new officials will effectively promote the implementation of the Apocalypse New Deal."
"I understand the sacred will of the official family. The responsibilities of the officials are very important and the relationship is of great importance. The official family suddenly handed over such a heavy responsibility to me, and I was a little scared." Chang Anmin replied in a deep voice.
"Knowing fear means knowing how heavy the responsibility is. When I inspected Hedong and traveled through prefectures and counties, Mr. Xigu always accompanied me and communicated with me more."
Chang Anmin immediately understood that this was an opportunity for the officials to explain to themselves their expectations for the work of themselves and the staff, as well as their ideas on how to build a new team of officials.
What a rare opportunity.
"I thank your Majesty!"
