"Xuan, the transfer envoy Qian Shuoyou from Zhejiang Province came to the palace to listen to the decree." Xiao Qi shouted loudly.
Qian Shuoyou, who had been waiting outside the door for a long time, hurriedly entered the palace and knelt down and said: "My dear friend Qian, please see, long live my emperor, long live, long live, long live."
"Qian Ai Qing, I am in peace."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Qian Shuoyou is about fifty years old, of medium build, and is dressed in a sixth-grade official uniform. He looks quite smart and capable. Historically, when Qian Shuoyou served as the prefect of Lin'an, he paid attention to dredging the West Lake, repairing scenic spots, and renovating roads. He majored in "Xian"
Chun Lin'an Zhi", and was later promoted to the Secretary of the Ministry of Finance. There are two completely different opinions about Qian Shuoyou's comments. One is that he is not afraid of power and superficially agrees with Jia Sidao, but he never wavers in the face of big rights and wrongs and is resolute.
He punished evil and eradicated evil, but was later framed and killed by a traitor. Another theory is that he became domineering and domineering by joining Jia as if he were on the road. Later he was demoted to the Yuan Dynasty and was killed by a general. In the "History of the Song Dynasty", neither was given
There is no evaluation of him in his biography, and the biography is written in a very unflattering light, which only highlights his arrogance and power.
Of course, "History of the Song Dynasty" was written by people from the Yuan Dynasty, and it is difficult to tell whether it is authentic or not, but at least one thing is generally recognized, and the potential commentators are talented.
For a long time, the latter statement has been the mainstream. As people explore history, the first statement has gradually become more popular. As for what the truth is, it is no longer known.
However, I don't know this, and I have no impression of potential friends.
The loyalties and traitors of the ancients are all written down by later generations. Many of them are fallacies, and some are even completely contradictory.
In the era of feudal monarchy, I believed more in the saying of "the king, the ministers, the people."
"Qian Ai Qing accepts the order."
When Xiao Qi saw Qian Shuoyou kneeling on the ground, he read: "I am now relieved of the post of prefect of Wei Quanzhong, the former prefect of Lin'an Prefecture, and will not be allowed to enter the official position for life. I am relieved of the post of Qian Shuoyou's transfer envoy to Zhejiang and Zhejiang, and appoints Qian Shuoyou as the alternate prefect of Lin'an Prefecture, acting on his behalf."
The power of the prefect is to receive the fifth-grade title. After three months, it will be reviewed by the Ministry of Personnel and he will be promoted to the fifth-grade prefect and take office on the same day. I hereby express my gratitude."
"Chen Qianshuoyou thanks the Lord for His kindness." Qianshuoyou accepted the imperial edict and kowtowed.
"My dear, excuse me." I glanced at Qian Shuoyou and said, "Qian my dear, this time you were recommended by your teachers and ministers to serve as the prefect of Lin'an. I have read your file in detail. During your tenure as transfer envoy, you performed well and can
Stick to your principles. The officials have given you a very good evaluation. I hope you will continue your efforts in Lin'an Mansion and never let down the court or the people."
"I will dedicate myself to serving your majesty, the court, and the people of Lin'an, and I will live up to your majesty's love and the recommendation of the grand master."
"Well, dear friends, I once told all the candidates at the end of the imperial examination that if you are an official and do not make decisions for the people, it is better to go home and raise livestock. I hope everyone can keep this in mind at all times. The ancients said,
The king is of the utmost importance, but the people are of the utmost importance. The people's well-clothed and well-fed people are the foundation of the country. Only by achieving this can we have the opportunity to advance our government to a higher level."
"I will keep this in mind."
The new location of the Ministry of Commerce is located next to the Sixth Department and is much smaller than the original Sixth Department.
Grand Master Jia Sidao attended the ribbon-cutting ceremony on behalf of the imperial court. I sat in the room drinking tea and looking at the work results of the Ministry of Commerce in recent days.
The responsibilities and codes of conduct of the Ministry of Commerce have been written down one by one. During the preparation of the construction, the registration of all businesses in Lin'an City has been completed, and the land survey on Fujian Road has been completed. However, a lot of problems were discovered during the survey process.
If the public land law is to be promoted in Fujian, these big landowners will definitely resist strongly. It will be very difficult for the Ministry of Commerce alone to completely solve these problems. But if they are not solved, the Guangdong and Guangxi Provinces will follow the same example.
It seems that we have to send an imperial envoy to Fujian Road, but who is suitable? I thought about it and felt that there were no candidates. Wen and Lu were not qualified enough, so the Jia Party was naturally excluded. The rest were more or less opposed to public land. Could it be that
Should I go by myself?
"Your Majesty, the ceremony is over." Jiang Wanli's voice interrupted my thoughts.
"Shichen, Jiang Aiqing, Liao Aiqing, please sit down and talk."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
"Jiang Aiqing and Liao Aiqing, the Ministry of Commerce has been established. You two have played a huge role in this."
"Your Majesty, this is a matter within the scope of my duties."
"I just saw the situation of your land surveying on Fujian Road. There are many problems."
Liao Yingzhong, who is the Superintendent of Official Land, said: "Your Majesty, during the land survey on Fujian Road, many problems were indeed found, such as false reports and concealed reports, and the amount was large, with the purpose of evading taxes. Fujian Road is our country's economy.
It is quite a developed area, but its tax revenue is less than other areas, so the problem may lie here. I once heard from the Grand Master that the same problem was encountered when the public land law was implemented on the Liangzhe West Road."
"Well, this is not just a problem on Fujian Road. This kind of problem exists across the country. I will use Fujian Road as a pilot to find a proper method."
Liao Yingzhong continued: "Your Majesty, I heard the Grand Master talk about this matter. The Grand Master thought that the main reason was the lax implementation of the laws in our dynasty. If orders were not given, everyone would follow suit, and a kind of rule gradually formed.
It is vicious, so the grand master thinks that the construction of the law should be strengthened. I think that in order to re-implement the public land law, it must be accompanied by enforceable management laws."
"Really, the Grand Master said so?"
Seeing what Liao Yingzhong said, Jia Sidao had no choice but to bite the bullet and said: "Your Majesty, the old minister said it."
I looked at these two people and thought to myself, Jia Sidao was really like a fish in water with Liao Yingzhong, but it was a pity that Liao Yingzhong was a talent. According to historical records, after Jia Sidao was killed, only Liao Yingzhong committed suicide and followed him to Jiuquan.
, enough to show Liao Yingzhong's loyalty to Jia Sidao.
I sighed: "Liao Aiqing, I am very relieved to have you assisting Jiang Aiqing in the Ministry of Commerce. The words of my teacher and minister touched me even more, Xiaoqi."
"The little one is here."
"Served by pen and ink."
After Xiaoqi was ready, I said: "Liao Aiqing, you are a master of calligraphy. I say, you write."
Liao Yingzhong was stunned for a moment and replied without knowing why: "Yes, Your Majesty."
"There are laws to follow, laws must be followed, law enforcement must be strict, and violations must be prosecuted."
These sixteen words are the understanding of the law by the legal governments of later generations. In this era, they are naturally insightful remarks.
After Liao Yingzhong finished writing, she read it over to herself. Her heart was full of respect and she said, "Your Majesty, this is my best opinion."
Jiang Wanli also praised: "Your Majesty is wise."
Jia Sidao didn't know whether he was happy or angry. He smiled and said: "Your Majesty is worthy of being the destined emperor."
"Haha, this is what Shi Chen said inspired me. Strengthen the construction of the law. Well said. Shi Chen is indeed my teacher." I laughed and said, "Xiao Qi."
"exist."
Regardless of whether it was Jia Sidao's words or not, I followed the trend and set the tone for the law.
"Give this to the Ministry of Punishment, and these sixteen words will serve as the Ministry of Punishment's guidelines from now on."
Liao Yingzhong said respectfully: "Your Majesty, wait a moment, can I add a few words to it?"
"Oh, what word?"
"Your Majesty, please write on it the words "Your Majesty's Imperial Decree."
I thought for a while, then looked at Liao Yingzhong's pen and ink, and said, "No need."
Liao Yingzhong did not ask me the reason and said: "Yes, Your Majesty."
"Shichen, has the new law on the supervision of official land management come out?"
"Your Majesty, the memorial has been submitted to the imperial study this morning, waiting for your Majesty's instructions."
"Well, very good, I will review it immediately after I get back."
Jiang Wanli saw this calligraphy and said with envy: "Your Majesty, can you also give numbers to the Ministry of Commerce?"
"Okay, Liao Aiqing, write again."
Liao Yingzhong picked up her pen and prepared: "Yes, Your Majesty."
"The way of business is the way of humanity."
Have the supervision measures for Guandian been completed?”
"Your Majesty, it has been completed. The veteran sent the memorial to the Imperial Study Room yesterday, and it will be implemented after His Majesty's review."
"Thank you for your hard work. I can review it after I get back."
