Chapter 112 Wolf Battle (14)

After talking to all the ministers, Wen Tianxiang went to meet Zhao Jiaren to report the latest progress. After reporting, Wen Tianxiang heard Zhao Jiaren ask: "Do you think they are saying what they are saying?"

"If they go back on their word, please ask the officials to panic and warn them for future generations!" Wen Tianxiang responded decisively. If the ministers collectively oppose for dignity and decency, Wen Tianxiang might even support the ministers. If the ministers go back on their word, Wen Tianxiang believes that there is no other choice than severe punishment.

Wen Tianxiang said this, and Zhao Jiaren could only sigh: "Since that's the case, let the Ministry of Personnel announce it. There are only a few dozen people anyway, and I hope no one below will make trouble. In addition, what did any officials say after the new regulations are announced?"

This is asking about the latest organizational regulations. Zhao Qian did not only add a "pre-strike and retaliate against his colleagues afterwards", but made a major adjustment to the code of conduct of the entire official and cadre team. There was also such a code in the Song Dynasty. In Zhao Qian's opinion, it was generally discussed, and the core was also loyal to the emperor and his duties. However, Zhao Qian felt it was too loose, and there was also a hard rule such as discipline and not being late and leaving early. Wen Tianxiang recognized it at that time.

After hearing Zhao Jiaren's question, Wen Tianxiang replied: "Officials, Wang Quanle was removed from office and demoted to third level. Some people said that the punishment was too light, but Wang Quanle wrote a letter to the Ministry of Personnel to thank him for his fair treatment."

"This person is a bachelor." Zhao Jiaren replied with a smile. Judging from Zhao Jiaren's feelings, Wang Quanle is probably a poisonous snake, but not the most disgusting person in the officialdom of the Song Dynasty. At least this person is still aware of the current affairs and can still know what to do when encountering things. Judging from Zhao Jiaren's complaints, Wang Quanle is behind Wang Quanle. The veterans of the military who are about to retreat are named as the current Minister of Civil Affairs, so he must step down. It is certain that Zhao Jiaren has decided to let the ministers go to the county, but Zhao Jiaren has now started to implement it in full, with the purpose of appeaseing the veterans of the military. He does not expect Wang Quanle to be able to take it and let it go, at least Wang Quanle did not take any worse actions. For example, pleading everywhere and catching bites. If Wang Quanle was not so bachelor, he would not know how the situation would be.

After talking about official affairs, Wen Tianxiang couldn't help but talk about private affairs. "The official family, but he didn't know how the housekeeper taught the prince so carefully. I want to ask for advice and go back to teach my children."

If it weren't for his good relationship with Zhao Jiaren, Wen Tianxiang wouldn't dare to ask about this. If it were compared in public, it would be a big deal. At least many people would impeach Wen Tianxiang and compare their children with their royal children, which would be a rebellion.

However, Zhao Jiaren understood Wen Tianxiang's thoughts, and he replied: "Be careful about the division? You have to understand this kind of thing yourself. Only by teaching by words can the children understand it. Otherwise, a child who doesn't understand anything will know what division is. Zhao Qian was very brave when he was a child, and often he was very confused. It was only when his mother asked him to develop the habit of learning that he slowly studied and came to this day."

"Just relying on learning alone?" Wen Tianxiang felt that his requirements for his children were not bad.

"If your child can go to a school with strict management or a school where your child is a master, which one would you choose?" Zhao Jiaren asked.

"Of course it is a school with strict management!" Wen Tianxiang answered decisively. Strict teachers produce high disciples, how can those little boys make the big splash!

"If the school does not comply with the regulations, I will warn you once and get expelled after three accumulations?" Zhao Jiaren continued to ask.

Wen Tianxiang stopped saying a word now. His first feeling was that Zhao Jiaren was a little difficult. Everyone hoped that his children could study hard, but they did not want their children to lose opportunities.

"I'm not bragging about Zhao Qian. The management of the school he works in is so strict. The teacher Wang Quanle made trouble is such a person. Although he is strict, he is not unkind. He points it out when encountering things and tells the children how to face their own problems. Most children who come from that kind of school have become successful. You have to ask me the reason, maybe your children do not go to that kind of school. The school also punishes students corporal punishment, but whoever dares to ridicule the students who are punished will ignore the system and be expelled directly."

"...So that's it." Wen Tianxiang then understood the reason.

"Zhao Qian was educated in this kind of school, and Ding Fei and the others also came from this kind of school. Children don't know anything since childhood, but they have to be educated in such a school so that they can understand what the system is. Those who can inform the test have the opportunity to continue to grow in the future. If they cannot pass the test, they are failure, and there is a high probability that they will not have the opportunity to continue to grow."

Speaking of this, Zhao Jiaren thought of something and couldn't help but show a sarcastic expression. Wen Tianxiang didn't dare to ask, but couldn't help it, and asked: "I don't know what the official family remembered?"

"I heard that the school you officials and children often go to is under a lot of pressure now. Some people are forced to transfer their children. When you mention this, I wonder in my heart, who should I deal with!" Zhao Jiaren's tone became vicious.

Wen Tianxiang was stunned and asked quickly: "Which school?"

"Which other place can it be... Forget it, just go and ask Ding Fei."

It was related to his own children, and Wen Tianxiang didn't want to ignore it, so he ran to the side of Attorney General Ding Fei. Ding Fei originally thought that Wen Tianxiang was here to discuss business affairs, so he turned down a meeting and held a meeting with Wen Tianxiang. After hearing Wen Tianxiang's questions, Ding Fei was stunned and then invited Wen Tianxiang to a single room in the office.

There is a camp bed in the single room, which is arranged very simple, and all the furniture is of military type, which looks both simple and serious.

"Why did the Prime Minister think of asking this?" Ding Fei asked while sitting on the marching chair.

There were no extra items here, and Wen Tianxiang sat in a softer place like the camp bed. He also told the truth, "I don't want my children to become playboys. I heard from the officials that Minister Ding is good at teaching his children, so I'll come and ask for advice."

"Then you have to bother the Prime Minister to find the Minister of Education. The man looked at him with morality, but he was actually a big bastard!" Ding Fei said angrily.

"Why?" Wen Tianxiang had never seen anyone scolding the Minister of Education like this, which was unexpected.

"My youngest son went to a cadre's school. One day after the child came back, he told me that he didn't like that school. The classmates in the school bragged all day long, my father was the leader of the group, my father was the commander of the division, my father was the prefect, and the county magistrate. At the beginning, I didn't believe it, so I asked someone to ask privately. After careful investigation, I found that it was true!"

After hearing this, Wen Tianxiang was shocked. This style is worthy of being the former chairman of the Song Dynasty's traitor committee. If it were Wen Tianxiang, he really didn't expect to go to investigate privately. He would probably ask the principal to come over or ask the teacher to come over to ask. He knew that he wanted to investigate privately, but he didn't know where to start.

Ding Fei didn't expect Wen Tianxiang to think of this. He continued to say angrily: "After the investigation, I was so angry that I asked them to go to school to learn and understand the rules. I couldn't bear to do such a thing. So I sent someone to investigate again, and finally chose a school that was mostly workers and transferred him to the school. My son also went to school and was happy. There were many good children. The Minister of Education was simply a must-have!"

After listening to the narrative, Wen Tianxiang was also shocked and sighed: "The Imperial College dare not do this!"

"The Imperial College is not much better. You just watch people take tea everywhere!" Ding Fei said angrily.

Wen Tianxiang was surprised again. In his mind, Ding Fei was a cruel official with blood and murders. However, the world was in crisis at that time, Wen Tianxiang had to admit that such cruel official must exist. Now when he heard Ding Fei's words, he actually knew the story of the literati.

It is said that after Su Shi visited Mogan Mountain, he came to a temple on the side of the mountain. When the Taoist saw the visitor dressed in a very simple manner, he socialized coldly and said, "Sit!" He ordered the boy, "Tea!" Su Shi sat down and drank tea. He casually talked to the Taoist priest. When the Taoist saw that the visitor spoke extraordinaryly, he immediately invited Su Shi into the hall, set up a chair and said, "Please sit!" He also ordered the boy, "Tea!" Su Shi continued to talk to the Taoist priest. Su Shi said so much, and Taoist priests said it was.

The scholar couldn't help asking Su Shi's name, and Su Shi said modestly: "The little official is Su Zizhan, the magistrate of Hangzhou." The Taoist priest quickly stood up and asked Su Shi to enter a quiet living room, and said respectfully: "Please sit down!" He also ordered the Taoist priest to take care of him: "Please sit down!" Seeing that the Taoist priest was very snobbish, Su Shi sat down for a while and said goodbye. Seeing that Su Shi could not keep Su Shi, he asked Su Shi to write an inscription. Su Shi wrote a couplet; "Sit sit down and sit down, and tea, tea, incense tea."

The so-called snobbish refers to such people. The scholars of the Song Dynasty joked and often used this as jokes. Everyone just smiled, but they didn't expect that a cruel official like Ding Fei would take this as a practical case to guide their children. When they think about it carefully, they even adhered to their moral integrity more strictly than those literati with art.

No wonder the Zhao Guan family reuses such people.

"Why didn't Minister Ding tell himself?" Wen Tianxiang asked tentatively.

"When I say this, wouldn't I be the target of public criticism?" Ding Fei replied casually. After saying that, he looked at Wen Tianxiang again, and then continued: "Don't the Prime Minister know how many people want my life? How dare I say something to criticize others!"

Wen Tianxiang also felt a little embarrassed. He didn't think so, but he didn't expect that Ding Fei not only killed people, but also taught his children well, but also knew his status and where he was. The Zhao Guan family was too accurate in their view of people. He quickly explained: "Minister Ding, please don't care. I always thought that Minister Ding was a minion in the court. If Minister Ding had no Minister Ding, the court would inevitably be in crisis."

Ding Fei didn't want to talk nonsense to Wen Tianxiang. He asked: "Since the government wants those people to go to the county, I would like to ask the Prime Minister to delegate the Minister of Education as soon as possible and find a good one to serve. If such people do things randomly, it will really mislead people's children!"

"Is there anyone whom Minister Ding?"

"How dare I think about this?"

"Since Minister Ding is willing to tell me, I can't turn the whole situation around immediately. Are there any temporary means?" Wen Tianxiang decided to rely on Ding Fei's wisdom.

"The current method is, I think it is better to ask the officials we trusted to serve as the principals of a certain school like the schools established by the government. When we invite these teachers, we will give more money so that the teachers will not have any worries. Then we will select Teacher Founder to teach. We, as parents, first assured the teachers that we are asking the teachers to teach our children well and will definitely abide by the school rules. This will allow the children to have a good school. I wonder what Prime Minister Wen thinks?"

"That's great!" Wen Tianxiang felt that doing this was probably the best way. Those who snobs did not have power, would definitely seek power by tying the dragon and phoenix. If they had power, they would start to take the orders in their hands. It was not what they did right or wrong, but they were the wrong people.

After praising Ding Fei, he recalled what Ding Fei said just now. Wen Tianxiang suddenly smiled and said, "I want to ask Minister Ding to serve in the Ministry of Personnel now! This salary increase is indeed only Minister Ding can say!"

Ding Fei was also stunned, but he didn't expect Wen Tianxiang to praise this question so much. After thinking about it, he couldn't help but sigh. Nowadays officials also have a common feature, which is the kind of superior character of civil servants. They always feel that they are the hardest and most amazing, so when they set wages for their subordinates, they always give the lowest salary, but they also give a relatively high bonus. In this way, they can use the power in their hands to play with the situation.

The reason why Ding Fei did not do this is because Ding Fei’s anti-traitor committee has explained this issue clearly since its establishment, and even made everyone understand it. Therefore, everyone’s requirements are high, their wages are high, and their welfare benefits are strictly reviewed, which allows everyone to work well without worries.

With several internal rectifications, the entire department was operating very well. Ding Fei has always used this method to manage the department. The entire department of the Ministry of Justice has a good morale and his work has also satisfied Ding Fei. So when it comes to establishing a new school, Ding Fei's first idea was to improve the treatment of teachers.

"That's great!" Wen Tianxiang felt that doing this was probably the best way. Those who snobs did not have power, would definitely seek power by tying the dragon and phoenix. If they had power, they would start to take the orders in their hands. It was not what they did right or wrong, but they were the wrong people.

After praising Ding Fei, he recalled what Ding Fei said just now. Wen Tianxiang suddenly smiled and said, "I want to ask Minister Ding to serve in the Ministry of Personnel now! This salary increase is indeed only Minister Ding can say!"
