On the way back, Zhao Kuo and the other three were very excited, talking in low voices, and their voices became louder and louder.
Zhao Kuo and Zhao Lian had relatively similar opinions, and Zhao Geng and Zhao Ting had similar opinions. However, Zhao Lian had a peaceful temperament and Zhao Ting was young, so they were unwilling to argue with their brothers.
The ones making the louder noise were Zhao Kuo and Zhao Geng.
For some reason today, Zhao Geng was very active. When Zhao Kuo argued with him, he was completely at a disadvantage, all thanks to his loud voice and strong momentum.
Zhao Si watched the four sons quarreling silently without saying a word. Yu Wenxuzhong sat next to him with twinkling eyes.
"Okay, don't argue anymore. What you are arguing about is just a dispute of will and is meaningless. Any dispute can be supported by evidence or data. If you sit here and argue, you won't be able to argue for a hundred years.
Come up with a result."
After a while, Zhao Si waved his hand to stop the quarrel among the four princes.
"Father, we can also find evidence or data for this kind of dispute." Zhao Kuo asked in disbelief.
"Why not?" Zhao Si replied, "Actually, as long as you have been a county magistrate or a county magistrate, and have actually handled the government affairs of a county, you don't have to argue, you already know it. I don't intend to tell you directly.
The answer is, you can find it yourself."
"However, it is difficult for you to have the opportunity to be the county magistrate or county magistrate. Well, it is the autumn harvest holiday. The four of you will go to four counties in Gyeonggi Province respectively. After a few days of field investigation, you will know everything. Shutong, you choose four
The school secretary, one for each, will accompany them down to do research."
"According to the order. From time to time, our secretarial department has secretaries and secretaries who go to various counties to conduct investigations. They are all accustomed to it and will not be disturbed by the local government. How will the official family distribute the secretaries and assigned counties to each prince?"
"Let's draw lots. The school secretary and the county going down each write four dumplings on paper and ask them to draw."
"yes."
"Follow the school secretary and continue well, be humble and attentive. They are all your teachers, don't act like a prince. I want to read your summary report when you come back."
"Yes! Father."
Zhao Si turned to Yu Wenxuzhong and said: "Shutong, I thought about it and decided to send you to Liaoning County, but it won't work. It's too cold there and you are weak. Follow me to Mobei and Peiping for a while and eat."
You have committed many crimes. If you are sent to Liaoning to govern for a few years, your body and bones will definitely not be able to bear it."
"Thank you, officials, for your thoughtfulness."
Zhao waved his hand disapprovingly, "Next year is the last year of Ji Zhonggong's term. As a rule, the cabinet and the Ministry of Secretariat have to make some fine-tuning. Ye Xun will be transferred up to take over Zeng Baohua's post. The Planning Department has a lot of major things to do. Ye Xun
He is the best successor. Over the years, he has done a good job in Panyu and managed the Nanhai area very well."
"Shutong, the situation in the South China Sea is complicated. The mountains are high and far away, and the local situation is very complicated. There are many people who want to close their doors and become local tyrants. Ye Xun has already dealt with it, and his arrogance has gone down a lot. But this kind of thing
, it is a long-term thing, we must persist and continue, twenty or fifty years, before we can deal with the ambitious people in the local area."
"Panyu is of great importance. Nowadays, the Song Dynasty is prospering in business and trade. Panyu is the center of the southern trade route, and many industries have been established. Spin mills, cotton mills, iron factories, shipyards...the strength is there. Now it has become the Nanhai area.
It is an economic, transshipment and cultural center, and one move affects the whole world."
Zhao Si spoke eloquently, and the four princes listened attentively. They knew that their father was taking advantage of the opportunity to teach him a lesson.
"Now the situation in South Vietnam has come to a head. Recovering the old counties of Yulin, Xiang, Rinan and other former Han Dynasties is only the first step in the South China Sea strategy, but it is a crucial step. Shutong, you will always be by my side.
, you know the priorities of many things well. So after much thought, you go to Panyu. It’s warm there!”
Yu Wenxuzhong was about to reply when Zhao Si pressed down with his right hand to stop him.
"It's just that Lingnan is not a good place to go. In the past, the old and the new factions fought between my father and my brother, and Lingnan was a place for losers. I am afraid that you will feel burdened when I send you to Panyu."
"In the official family, you know the character of the minister best. I have a strategic mind, and I carry out the administration. I pride myself on not losing to others. However, I am slightly inferior in courage, not as good as Xuan Ming, Mao Ming and others. In the land of the South China Sea, I am decisive in killing.
It is up to Yao Xiong and Li Miao to handle the matter. I am responsible for logistics and civil affairs, winning over people's hearts, and I am not worried about betraying the divine grace."
"Haha, that's good. Shutong, it's settled, I will succeed Ye Xun as the Yin of Lingnan County."
"Yes, official!"
"Now that we have artemisia annua soup, we are not afraid of malaria. We also found a treasure in Nanyingzhou, called the cinchona tree. The locals pretend to eat the soup made from the bark of the tree. A bag of glass beads is exchanged for it.
The information and tree species have been transplanted to Yunling, Qianzhong, Lingnan and other places. With these magical medicines in hand, Yizhou Island in the East China Sea and so many islands in the South China Sea can be cultivated step by step by the Song Dynasty."
At this time, Zhao Ting couldn't help but ask: "Father, Mr. Ye took over the Ministry of Planning, where will my uncle serve? He won't be appointed to a local position, right?"
Zhao Si laughed and was about to reply, but when he glanced around, the words in his mouth changed.
"Eldest brother, second brother, third brother, tell me where will my uncle go to serve?"
"Shoot, right servant!" The three of them looked at each other and replied in unison.
"Haha, I have a little bit of consciousness. It's just that I'm not ready yet. I'm going to put your uncle in the Zhongshu Province. He will first take over as Zuo Cheng, the counselor of the Xie Ke family. In the twenty-first year of the Apocalypse, he will be promoted to the Situ of the Zhongshu Province."
"Father, why is this?" This time even Zhao Ting followed the three brothers and asked.
"Zeng Maoming is an uncle and a relative of the state. What will the world think of him as the deputy prime minister and prime minister of Tongping Zhangjun State Affairs and Heping Zhangjun State Affairs? I will not leave such an ancestral method to future generations. Although I say
Don’t avoid relatives when promoting good people, but there is always a time limit for everything. If it is exceeded, there will be problems and sequelae.”
Zhao Si said sincerely.
When he saw that the four princes were all feeling sorry for Zeng Baohua, Zhao Si shook his head and said, "You guys still see it too lightly, and you don't understand my intention."
The four princes looked at each other and said respectfully: "Father, please give me a lesson."
"The world always thinks that the one who restrains the Minister of Finance must be the Ministry of Menxia. They are all wrong. The one who can really restrain the Minister of Education is the Ministry of Education. Do you know why? Because the Ministry of Education is the one who makes the rules."
Having said this, Zhao Si said seriously: "Remember, Zhongshu Sheng is the maker of the rules, Shangshu Sheng is the executor of the rules, and Menxia Sheng is the supervisor of the rules, each of them performs his or her own duties!"
Seeing the four princes nodding, Zhao Si continued: "Since Zhongshu has been authorized by the emperor to formulate the rules, although it is pragmatic, the actual authority is extremely high. Moreover, I plan to let the Jiayiyuan supervise the minister, and let the Tongyiyuan supervise the personnel power of the Menxia Province.
Financial powers of the two provinces.”
"In this case, your uncle's transfer to Zhongshu Province has a heavy responsibility. The burden is no less than that of serving as prime minister."
The four princes were shocked, and Zhao Geng couldn't help but ask: "Father, the power of Zhongshu Province is so important, why are you starting to implement it now?"
Zhao Si turned to look at Yu Wenxuzhong and smiled tacitly.
"Because I needed to use Zhongshu Province to place and win over those old-school important officials. Xiao Su Gong, Fan Shugong, He Zhizhong, Fan Zhixu, Xie Kejia, etc. all served in Zhongshu Province. Since I want to give them some authority,
You can’t give too much authority. Now that the old-school ministers have withered away, and the new-school faction dominates the court, it is natural that they must fulfill the true responsibilities of Zhongshu Sheng.”
"Okay, you guys should experience it."
"Yes, Father!"
"Dongdongdong", the carriage stopped and someone knocked on the door outside.
"What's up?"
"The officials," Yu Huatian said outside the carriage, "Dongguo has sent urgent military information!"
"Bring it in."
