The people in Jiangzuo huddled together to keep warm. Compared to those places that were conquered, there were some difficulties.
There has been less bloodshed, and the local area has recovered somewhat after Du Fuwei's governance over the years. However, local forces are entrenched and difficult to eradicate in a short period of time.
So, things in this world are always difficult to have both ways.
After Wang Ze and others took office, the confrontation with local forces has just begun. The test of their talents is still to come. This year is probably a stage for both parties to adapt to and test each other.
……………………
Wang Ze and Li Jing's memorials came to Chang'an one after another. Li Po looked at them and put them aside.
Needless to say, Li Jing was his teacher and father-in-law, and he was such a famous figure, so he could safely hand over the power.
Wang Ze was not bad either. He was an old minister of Jinyang and followed him on the westward expedition into Chang'an. He stayed in the position of Minister of Rites without any complaints.
Now that he is the general manager of Yangzhou, he has a heavy responsibility and has nothing to worry about in terms of loyalty. I just wonder if he can open up a situation in Jiangzuo. If not, Jiangzuo and his party will leave Maicheng, which will be a huge blow to his career.
Metaphor.
Now that Li Po is becoming more and more confident, most of the old and new people are letting him go, no longer worrying about this or that. The main thing is to unify the world. If you don't be loyal to me, who else can you be loyal to?
Looking through the memorial, I thought that at the end of May or beginning of June, the imperial examination would be decided at the imperial meeting, and it should be postponed to the end of June at the latest.
Speaking of the founding of the country, everything was difficult because we had to clean up the mess after the war. Many things required a lot of effort, but little results were seen in a short period of time. This very tested the ability and patience of those who governed.
But looking at it from another perspective, some things are very convenient to do, such as reforms in various aspects. Taking advantage of the strength of the founding of the country, the resistance in all aspects is not as great as in peacetime.
The old interest groups have been hit hard, but the new ones have not yet taken shape, so many things can be done very easily.
……………………
Therefore, although this year has been busy, the resistance to change is not as great as expected. Whether it is the talent selection system or the reform of farmland, there is rarely such firm and fierce opposition.
Even when it came to asking the nobles to pay for their food, most of the noble families endured it silently. Many people shed their blood for this, but it did not create much of a stir.
He looked through the memorials and approved them casually, asking Master Yan to write in ancient times. When he encountered something more difficult, he would frown and think deeply. If he had an idea, he would agree or give suggestions and submit them to Zhongshu for review. Those that need to be discussed by everyone should be sent to them first.
Discuss with your subordinates.
In fact, all the memorials that could be sent to him were sorted out by officials from the three provinces. The three provinces could make the decision on matters that were not that important. If the emperor was not so wise, he could ignore political affairs and just focus on his own happiness.
Of course, the ending of such an emperor is usually not very happy. The imperial power needs to be reflected in the handling of government affairs. If you leave the government affairs, it also means that you give up the imperial power.
Unknowingly, the time had reached noon, and there was still a small court meeting waiting for Li Po in the afternoon. He was going to eat something to recharge his batteries after finishing the last meal.
Because this impeachment form was very interesting, a smile couldn't help but spread on Li Po's face.
Shi Fangxuanling, the head of the Jingzhao Prefecture, was beaten. The person who beat him was none other than his wife, Lu. It is said that Fangxuanling was pushed to the ground and given a good beating. Such violence was extremely rare in the world.
The person who impeached Fang Xuanling for being unworthy of official status was Niu Xingyuan, the imperial censor, who suggested that he should be dismissed from his official position and that Fang Xuanling be ordered to divorce his wife and reflect on himself behind closed doors.
Fang Xuanling's reputation as a henpecker was widely circulated in Chang'an official circles, but this time the incident went too far.
Fang Xuanling was a real scholar, full of colorful things. Now that he was an official in Jingzhao Mansion, he was out of sight of the Lu family, so he became a bit wild.
In addition, being together with Yuen Long, the two guys who were both henpecked lived a very happy life in Jingzhao. Fang Xuanling was more lively than Yuen Long. He had a few maids around him and lived a happy life.
A good day to wear red sleeves.
It's just that happiness brings sorrow. Mrs. Lu understood her husband's character, and after introducing him for a while, she quietly went to Jingzhao Mansion to visit, and just happened to catch Fang Xuanling.
Then Fang Xuanling suffered a tragedy. In the back house of Jingzhao Mansion Yamen, Mrs. Lu grabbed Fang Xuanling and beat her. The scene... was too tragic to watch.
Even Queen Li Bi also likes to fight with her husband, but Li Po's strength is not low. He used to win more than he lost, but after becoming the emperor, he neglected to exercise, so he gradually became weak, but he still had the power to fight back.
Fang Xuanling, a weak scholar, would only get beaten when he met the tough Lu family.
If Yuen Long hadn't arrived in time, Fang Xuanling would have been beaten to death by the furious Lu. Her reputation as a shrew was truly worthy of her name.
This is not a big deal. As far as Li Po is concerned, he can laugh it off. After all, in those short videos later, there were many women slapping men in the face, and in reality, there were also many men who made men kneel down in the street.
But having said that, his influence in the world was very bad. Fang Xuanling was disgraced. No matter what official position he held in the future, his prestige would be worse than others.
Everyone will feel that you can’t even control your wife, so you still want to control us?
Li Po thought for a while, but in the end he didn't let it go easily. He ordered Fang Xuanling to shut up for a few days to reflect on himself and recover from his injuries. He also ordered Lu family to enter the palace and asked the queen to give him a lecture. As for whether this jealous lady would change or not,
That's her own business.
If he wanted to cause trouble in public again, he would imitate Li Shimin and give her some vinegar.
Yuen Long was also implicated. He failed to take good care of his subordinates, causing Fang Xuanling to make such a big mistake. He was fined a year's salary and asked his mother-in-law to keep an eye on this unreliable guy while in office.
In fact, Ashina Yunzhen has already moved to the old city of Chang'an, and this is just a formality. Li Po's maintenance of his family is similar to Li Yuan's, and he wants them to live a peaceful life.
As for glory and wealth, it is just a matter of chance.
……………………
Li Po used some more during lunch, and the interesting things were enough to accompany the meal. Fang Xuanling's beating was not in vain. The emperor saw a big joke and remained in a happy mood. During the small court meeting in the afternoon, no one was caught.
put.
In the evening, Chen Xiaoyi, the general manager of Bingzhou, came to his desk with a memorial requesting the establishment of Jinyang Academy. At the same time, Chen Xiaoyi's resignation document was also presented.
Chen Xiaoyi was too old and should have retired and returned home to take care of his old age. Unlike He Chou, he had no desire to cling to power. He only took office again because he wanted to help the emperor take care of the two states.
Been here all these years.
Now I really don’t have enough energy, so I wrote a letter to resign.
After Li Po read it, he couldn't help but feel a little sad...
