The New Year has come, and officials from all over the country have arrived in Xianyang one after another.
Within this month, officials will take a year-end exam, which is the plan!
In the Qin Dynasty, class was when superiors assessed subordinates, and superiors were when subordinates summarized their work to superiors.
The process of the upper plan is: every autumn and winter, officials at township, county and other levels compile the household registration, number of acres of land, taxes, grain import and export, etc. within their jurisdiction into an "upper plan", and report it to each county at each level.
The 'supervisor' in accounting work.
The local planners will hold a "plan meeting" to review the data and make arrangements for the next year in accordance with court regulations, which is equivalent to the local two meetings.
After the local meeting ended, it was almost the end of the year, that is, the end of September. At that time, the "Shangji Li" meeting in each county led the relevant accounting officials to Xianyang, loaded with "Shangji Bo" and various reference materials, to attend the court meeting.
The national 'Shanghai Accounting Conference'.
This time the organizer became Zhi Su Neishi, one of the nine ministers.
The various materials they carry will be handed over to the imperial censor's office for review. The last step of the entire meeting is for the emperor to personally visit the site of the planning activities to "accept the planning", listen to work reports from various places, and comment on each county.
, the merits and demerits of each official, and give further instructions on their work.
Now the planning meetings have ended one after another.
The assessment results of each county have also been announced one after another.
Many officials were reprimanded, fined, or even dismissed from their posts on the spot, but many officials were rewarded and even promoted.
In this first month of the year.
The transfers of court and local officials have also been announced one after another.
The resignations of two old prime ministers, Wang Wan and Wei Zhuang, have been accepted.
Now Li Si has officially taken over as the Prime Minister of the Right, Feng Quji has become the Prime Minister of the Left, and Yao Jia, who originally thought there was a change, still became the Tingwei, but Dun Rui, who was rumored to be stepping down, is still in the position of the Censor.
At the same time, many local officials were promoted.
Hua Ji, Gan Luo, Yin Tong and others were promoted to the court by virtue of the "best" results in the above-mentioned assessment. Li You, Hua Yu and others were assigned to various counties for their outstanding performance during their tenure.
Officers.
besides.
The most eye-catching one is the former censor Yi.
He was transferred to the Shaofu and served as the chief officer of a new department. His main responsibilities have not yet been announced to the public, which has attracted the attention of many officials.
but.
The changes in the court have nothing to do with the Doctor's Academy.
In the Doctor's Academy, there are still the same people, neither more nor less, but when the whole court is in turmoil, it seems lifeless.
During these few months.
Qin Luoheng never went to the doctor's academy again and has been working hard at home. Now both Bo Shu and Zhao Tan are pregnant. For this reason, Qin Luoheng went to the market to buy a few female ministers to use.
Serve two girls.
also.
The only person he contacted was Xu Xin from the farmer's family.
After the gathering of scholars, Xu Xin thought for a long time, and finally decided to try Qin Luoheng's ideas and improve grain varieties. At the end of the year, officials from various counties came to Xianyang, and Xu Xin also used his status as a doctor.
, asked about the grain output in various places, and finally purchased some high-quality grain seeds from the officials in many counties and counties.
Now everything is ready.
Just waiting for spring.
The weather has begun to turn colder.
The carriages traveling in Xianyang City never stopped.
As soon as the above-mentioned assessment was over, officials from various places began to rotate. Many officials who were newly promoted to the court rushed to Xianyang with their families and their families in the past few days.
Washington.
After several days of trekking, Huaji also returned to Xianyang.
Hua Fu said: "I have just sent someone to bring Qin Luoheng over. During this period, our Huafu seemed very quiet, but fortunately nothing went wrong. Hua Ji, you finally returned to Xianyang, and Hua Yu
The transfer orders have also been issued.”
"Now that everything has settled, it's time for Qin Luoheng to come over."
Hua Fu stroked his beard with a smile on his face.
After he retired from the Yushifu, he had been living in seclusion and rarely asked about Qin Luoheng's affairs. Even in the meeting of scholars, he did not ask about it at all, just because he was worried about being involved too deeply, attracting the attention of the First Emperor, and thus affecting Hua Hua.
Sent back to the DPRK and Hua Yu’s transfer.
Now the transfer orders for both of them have been served.
Naturally, he no longer needs to be as reserved and serious as before.
Hua Ji Jishou said:
"Is what my father said before true?"
"Sinian is really not dead?"
Hua Ji actually got the news earlier, but he just couldn't believe it. He returned home after a long journey a few days ago and didn't rush to ask. Today, when he heard his father mentioned Qin Luoheng again, he couldn't help but take the initiative to ask.
Hua Fu nodded.
He said in a deep voice:
"How could I lie to you about such a big thing?"
"Sinian is indeed not dead."
"You should have heard about Qin Luoheng, but you should be able to see that without His Majesty's support, how could he be able to do so many things? And he hasn't been punished too much?"
Hua Ji nodded slightly and said, "What my father is saying is that all of this is really unbelievable, and I was a little dazed for a moment."
Hua Fu smiled.
said:
"I was just like you back then."
"If it weren't for Hua Yu's photographic memory, I wouldn't be sure. And after having contact with Qin Luoheng later, I did find out that there was His Majesty behind him, and His Majesty often visited the place where he lived in the past.
"
"He must be Si Nian!"
Hua Fu's tone was unusually certain.
Hua Ji sat cross-legged on the ground, looking a little confused.
But he had experienced many things and quickly recovered his mind. He said in a deep voice: "If he is really that old, this change in the court may really have something to do with him. In the past few months, the court officials have changed frequently. I
The Guanzhong clan that was originally demoted have all been promoted more or less."
"and......"
"This time we also promoted many former officials from the Six Kingdoms."
"This series of actions undoubtedly divided the eldest son's influence in the court. Now that the eldest son is far away in Chu, he is beyond the reach of the court's mobilization. And Qin Luoheng because of his over-the-top behavior at the scholar's event
, received a certain degree of cold treatment, but it was actually harmless."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "If Qin Luoheng is really in this year."
"With the current state of the court, Si Nian is enough to compete with the eldest son, and even vaguely win. Your Majesty has not yet established a prince, but now the eldest son is showing signs of losing power, and the other princes are not particularly outstanding, maybe...
....”
"Sinian can really take over again!"
Hua Yu hesitated for a moment and then said hesitantly: "Brother, I am confused about something. Since Your Majesty intends to make Si Nian the crown prince, why not restore Si Nian's status first?"
Hua Ji looked at him sternly and said:
"Don't speculate on His Majesty's thoughts."
"The reason why His Majesty does not recover must be His Majesty's plan."
"And I don't think it's a bad thing not to recover. Si Nian is too young and has been away from Xianyang for too long in the past. If he really recovers, with his past business mentality, it will be easy for him to be complacent, which will be counterproductive."
"Qin Luoheng is now Doctor Da Qin."
"The official position is not low, but he has no real power, but he has begun to have some contact with the court, which will actually be of great benefit to him in the future."
"but."
"I heard earlier that he has not been to the Doctor's Palace for several months? But I don't know why? Is it because His Majesty has strictly prohibited it?"
There was a hint of doubt in Hua Ji's eyes.
Hua Fu said, "When he comes, you will know after asking."
Hua Ji nodded and did not talk to Qin Luoheng anymore. Instead, he talked about Hua Yu going to Kuaiji County to become the county magistrate.
Hua Ji said: "Hua Yu, you used to work in the prison bureau, so you don't know much about local affairs. In fact, the most important thing about local affairs is writing official documents. The materials and writing formats used in official documents are different. This
Wherever you go, you really need to pay close attention."
"in addition."
"If possible, keep an eye on Confucianism."
"Confucian?" Hua Yu had a look of doubt in his eyes.
Hua Fu also looked over.
Hua Ji nodded and said:
"That's right, it's Confucianism."
"Before I came back, I heard some news. Confucianism seemed to be opening private schools in local areas and spreading "Poems" and "Books" that were strictly prohibited by the government. In fact, I had recently started to investigate, but before I had time, I received a notice from the court.
The order was transferred, so I had to put it aside and return to Xianyang."
"If you go somewhere, be careful."
"These people in the Confucian family have never been peaceful. I asked my father yesterday. The Confucian family has been extremely quiet for a while. It is completely different from the past. In my opinion, they may have something to do with the nobles of the six countries behind their backs.
They collude with each other and want to open private schools in local areas, thereby expanding their influence and even causing trouble in the local area."
"This has to be guarded against!"
Hua Yu's heart trembled, and he quickly said: "Brother, don't worry, I will definitely start investigating when I get to the place."
Hua Ji shook his head and said:
"You don't have to worry too much."
"After all, you are new to the place and are not familiar with local affairs. There is no need to focus on these. Familiarize yourself with your own government affairs first. You will investigate these matters after you are familiar with the government affairs and become familiar with the local officials.
It’s not too late either.”
"This time the imperial court transferred many local officials to the court. After I became familiar with the functions of the censor, I went to visit them once or twice and inquired about the situation in the counties where they were located. With the mentality of Confucianism, I will not just do it in one county.
These things."
A sharp look flashed in Hua Ji's eyes.
"Okay." Hua Yu nodded.
Hua Fu frowned. He carefully thought about Confucianism's recent actions. It was indeed very different from the past. In the past, Confucianism was very arrogant, claiming to be the correct doctrine of the world, making rude remarks in court many times, and even contradicting His Majesty.
But in recent months.
Confucianism has indeed restrained itself a lot.
Huafu Road:
"There seems to be something wrong with Confucianism."
"The imperial court has always disliked Confucian classics. In the past, it has issued repeated orders to prohibit the spread of Confucianism. Although it has begun to allow Confucian students to enter the school in recent years, the ban on private study has never been relaxed."
"If Confucians dare to open private schools and collude with the remnants of the Six Kingdoms, they are looking for death!"
Hua Ji said:
"Now there are just some speculations, and there is no conclusive evidence, so don't tell the outside world. However, in the past, Confucianism relied on the eldest son. If Confucianism really has problems, then don't blame us for taking the initiative to attack."
"Sinian gave the eldest son a chance!"
"But the eldest son seems to have never been caught."
Hua Fu's eyes darkened and he said displeasedly: "Be careful what you say in the future."
Hua Ji also said quickly: "My son is speechless."
Hua Fu took a deep look at Hua Ji and said in a deep voice: "Although you are Si Nian's uncle, you should not get too involved in some matters. Qin Luoheng grew up from a young age and has always had his own ideas. If you
If you do too much, I'm afraid it will arouse his dissatisfaction."
"Besides."
"Your Majesty will not allow brothers to fight against each other."
"This is something I, Fahrenheit, will never tolerate."
"You are always calm in doing things, but when it comes to Qin Luoheng, you lose your composure time and time again. When Qin Luoheng comes over, you should pay attention. He does not remember the past, and you should not take the initiative to mention it, let alone talk about it.
If he is emotionally excited, treat him as Qin Luoheng."
Hua Ji bowed his head and said, "I understand."
Hua Fu raised his forehead slightly and said, "That's it. By the way, have you told Mi Lian about Qin Luoheng?"
Hua Ji said:
"Of course there is no hiding this matter."
Hua Fu reminded: "You will remind Mi Lian later and ask her to pay attention. Women are somewhat emotional."
Speaking of which.
Hua Fu also sighed.
"Now the Mi family is not as good as before."
"Originally there was a Mi Chen, but more than half a year ago, Mi Chen accidentally fell into a well and died. Most of the other members of the Mi clan are mediocre, so let her have time to go back to the Mi Mansion and have a look."
Hua Ji said:
"I understand."
Hua Fu nodded and said nothing more.
the other side.
Qin Luoheng received an invitation from Washington.
Looking at the content on the invitation, Qin Luoheng showed a hint of hesitation in his eyes.
He actually doesn't want to get too close to Washington.
Do not know why.
Washington was too enthusiastic about him, so enthusiastic that I couldn't understand it.
He actually didn't have much contact with Hua Yu and Hua Fu. Except for a few meetings, the two sides didn't actually have much friendship, but Hua Fu seemed to trust him, which made him feel a little unclear.
But this time, he decided to go.
Because the invitation clearly stated two things, one was that Hua Yu was going to be an official in the local area, and the other was that Hua, the eldest son of Huafu, had sent it home.
He should go and see Hua Yu off.
Qin Luoheng said a few words to Bo Shu, put on a thick coat, and went out to the banquet.
When Qin Luoheng appeared outside the door of Huafu, Hua Fu had already been waiting at the door. Before Qin Luoheng could salute, Hua Fu took the initiative to explain: "Dr. Qin, let me introduce to you, this is my
The eldest son, Hua Ji, is currently a censor in the Censor's Mansion."
Qin Luoheng quickly saluted and said: "I have met the censor."
Hua Ji raised his eyebrows slightly, but his eyes did not move away from the beginning. He kept staring at Qin Luoheng closely, as if he wanted to see through Qin Luoheng.
Qin Luoheng saluted the three of them one by one.
After seeing the ceremony, the four of them entered Huafu. Someone had already prepared the food inside, and there were some female scrolls inside. Huafu looked at Qin Luoheng and introduced them one by one. When he introduced Mi Lian,
There was a pause in his words, as if he was expecting Qin Luoheng's reaction.
Qin Luoheng looked at Mi Lian and saluted quickly: "I've met Madam."
