Since there were a large number of reform decrees that needed to be promulgated in a short period of time, Yu Wentai was also very busy during this period, forgetting to eat and sleep, working day and night to issue various decisions and promote the implementation of various decrees.
Although Yu Wentai can be said to be energetic, such intense desk work in recent days has made him feel tired and his energy is gradually declining.
On this day, he worked with the government officials until late at night to sort out the name changes and territorial divisions of the states and counties in the country, so as to distinguish them from the previous Western Wei politics, so that the changes in order could be felt from the central to the local governments.
, and thereby strengthen the authority of the Chinese and Foreign Governments.
This is a very detailed and trivial task, because from the Northern Wei Dynasty to the Western Wei Dynasty, and between the Western Wei Dynasty and the Southern Liang Dynasty, there were already a large number of overseas settlers and overlapping prefectures and counties. Sometimes one prefecture name actually had several locations.
There are also two-headed prefectures and counties where several states are concentrated in one place. This phenomenon is especially dramatic in Shuzhong, Handong and other places in the former Nanliang territory.
In addition, the geography and personnel of the various prefectures and counties, as well as the situation of some Jisi prefectures and prefectures, need to be taken into consideration, making this work more cumbersome. If you are not careful, you may make omissions, and you will have to overturn the previous results and do it again.
Yu Wentai was sitting in the banquet, carefully looking at the maps of various prefectures and counties compiled by the government officials. Because he was too tired, he fell asleep leaning on the desk in a blink of an eye.
Seeing this scene, Yu Wenhu, who was also busy at his desk in the hall, quickly took a look and stood up, beckoning the nearby waiter to come forward and carefully set up screens on both sides of his uncle's table to block the night wind, while he himself set up a table next to the table.
The case was settled, and when a government official came forward to ask for instructions, he first gave instructions according to his own ideas, and then wrote down the plan for what he was dealing with, and gently placed it on Yuwentai's case until he woke up and inspected it.
Hope to consider.
Yuwentai slept until dawn. When the morning bell rang in the imperial city, the imperial city gate opened, and the officials were about to enter the office, Yuwentai woke up leisurely.
He first moved his somewhat numb shoulders and back, and then found that a soft brocade quilt had been carefully stuffed under him. When he looked around the hall again, he saw the thin morning light hitting the window paper and seeping into the hall.
The people working in the hall had retreated at some point, and the long wicks of the candles on the desks had been extinguished. Several waiters were leaning on the side of the hall, looking drowsy, and did not even notice Grand Master Yuwen.
movement.
"Uncle is awake?"
At this time, a slight voice sounded from behind the screen next to him. Yuwentai looked over again and found that Yuwenhu was getting up from his desk with some difficulty in the banquet.
"You haven't rested yet?"
Yuwentai had just woken up and was still a little confused about the situation. Seeing that Yuwenhu was still here, he frowned and said: "I fell asleep for some reason. Why don't you wake me up? The sooner the matter of prefectures and counties is approved, the better. Late spring will
If there is any further delay, tax collection this fall will be greatly affected."
The financial situation of the Chinese and Foreign Governments has always been very tight. Once taxes are affected, many important things will inevitably encounter obstacles, so Yu Wentai is racing against time to get things done as soon as possible.
"Uncle was too tired. I really couldn't bear to be disturbed anymore last night, so I arranged for the government officials to handle some matters on my own initiative, and recorded them in a book for uncle's review. If it's not thorough enough, now
It is not too late to remedy the situation.”
After sitting all night, Yuwen's legs and feet were also a little numb. He stood up with some difficulty and then walked unsteadily to Yuwentai's table, pointing to the record book on the case.
After Yu Wentai heard this, he quickly grabbed the business book. After flipping through it for a while, a look of satisfaction appeared on his face and he murmured: "Yes, yes, these things have been arranged to my liking. Sabao has it in mind. You
Don't stand any longer and take a seat. No, you should go back and rest first. There is nothing missing in the arrangement of these things. Thank you for your hard work."
Seeing that Yu Wenhu was still standing respectfully in front of him with his hands down, Yu Wentai quickly waved his hand and said.
After hearing this, Yu Wenhu relaxed his somewhat nervous mood. Instead of resigning directly, he returned to the table and sat down. At the same time, he said with a smile: "Concentrate on your own housework, so what's the point of being tired?"
!As long as I can share my labor for my uncle and contribute to the cause, I will feel happy in my heart."
"The children in the family are in charge, and I can sleep peacefully."
When Yu Wentai heard this, he also showed a happy smile on his face. He looked at Yu Wenhu who looked tired and sighed: "Sa Bao, you have always been very capable, but sometimes you are inevitably misled by your temperament.
Everyone has their shortcomings and their strengths, and people's talents also have their own specialties. A truly wise person is not one who is competent in all kinds of things, but one who knows how to choose to shine in the things he is good at. If you can cut off a few
Being impatient and aggressive, it is not difficult to reach places that are difficult for ordinary people to reach."
After Yu Wenhu heard his uncle's evaluation of himself, he shook his head and sighed and said, "I am not a young child now, so how could I not understand the principles that my uncle preached? But the temperament that I was born with, my muscles and bones, unconsciously...
We have reached the age of forty, and it is already difficult to change. As my uncle said, people have their own talents and specialties. It is enough for me to have some talents that can be used by my family and country, and I don’t expect that I can still do it.
Cultivate your moral character and achieve perfection."
"It's already very good to be able to understand this section. It's a kind of open-mindedness and calmness! If I had taught you this in the past, you would have been so angry that you would have never given in!"
Yu Wentai couldn't help but laugh after hearing this, and was very pleased with his nephew's growth.
Seeing that Yu Wenhu was not in a hurry to leave, he took the business book and read it carefully. When he saw the entries of Jingzhou's subordinates, he couldn't help but sigh: "There are as many as sixty-eight states under one government of Jingzhou."
?”
After hearing the words, Yu Wenhu nodded quickly and said: "I also reviewed this matter carefully last night. I have reported all the personnel in the mansion in Jingzhou, and checked the records many times and confirmed them to be correct. I talked about the achievements of establishing rule in the border areas and opening up territories.
, Li Boshan is indeed the only one in the country, no one can compare with him!
The people in the country are still debating whether to take Jiangling, but the Jingzhou General Administration has already sent troops to Jiangzhou, even if it is not far from Jiankang! Although the east bandits have collected the remnants of Hou Jing, they have been making trouble in Huainan.
, but the land in Jiangbei actually invaded is still not as good as that of Jingzhou. Li Boshan is so talented that he is not inferior to any other country!"
Hearing Yuwenhu's unabashed praise of Li Tai, Yuwentai couldn't help but feel surprised, and then sighed: "It's been a long time since I heard such a fair evaluation of Boshan from you. It's true that he was appointed to the southeast."
It was a great plan back then. If not for this, even if Southeast Asia can make progress due to the civil strife in Nanliang, the harvest may not be as grand and impressive."
"In the past years, many people were belittling him, either because they were resentful that he came from behind, or they hoped that the gap between them could be covered up a little. But now the gap has become so obvious, and the public knows that if they just blindly belittle him, it will only expose their own shallowness and narrowness.
"
Yu Wenhu first smiled bitterly, and then said: "It's not just me. Even the eldest grandson Changshi had to pay homage to the top of Li Bo Mountain after he went to Jingzhou, and he was extremely respectful. Only in this way was he able to gain a foothold in the Jing Mansion. I think so.
It’s not that I’m making my uncle jealous again. How could my uncle not have such a little bit of wisdom in observing people and predicting things?
No matter how talented Li Boshan is, he is only fighting for the glory of his subordinates. Naturally, my uncle is not worried about being unable to control him. We wait for the masses to say a lot of things, but we don’t have enough ability to replace them. No matter how much we talk, it is useless.
To increase my uncle’s troubles, should I ask him to personally handle Li Boshan’s duties?”
Yuwentai fell silent after hearing this. He did have similar thoughts in his mind. It was not that he had not considered Li Tai's growing power. But as Yuwenhu said, no matter whether Li Tai was trustworthy or not, he was now in
Southeast's role is difficult to replace. Even if you want to dismiss him immediately, who can you send to replace him?
Nowadays, among the great generals in the country, Li Tai is already the well-deserved number one in terms of reputation and merit. Regardless of personal ability, the Zhuguo people may barely be able to surpass him in terms of qualifications, so they can let Zhuguo go out and sit in the southeast.
The result will only be more dangerous!
After being silent for a while, Yuwen Taicai said again: "You also know that Boshan has extensive operations in the southeast. If I don't use Jiangling in the future, not only will the people of the country be upset, I'm afraid Xiao Yi will also laugh at my failure to govern."
"Jiangling not only needs to enter the map, but also needs to enter the map quickly. Li Boshan not only needs to use it, but also needs to use it greatly!"
When Yu Wenhu heard what his uncle said, he hurriedly said: "Even the Chinese and Foreign Governments can immediately order Jingzhou to march to Jiangling. If Li Boshan goes, his army will be exhausted, and Mianbei will be empty. At that time, generals will be sent to suppress it and help him."
Follow-up is also the right thing to do. If it fails, Jiangling will also be on the alert. At that time, people from the lower reaches will be attracted to return to Jiangling, in an attempt to restore the north and east of the Yangtze River to supplement the river defense. Jingzhou's military force will be sent to the south, and there will be no time for other things.
This is how I stole the plan for my uncle to suppress the powerful vassal. If they advance to Jiangling, the division of the southeast will be logical. If they refuse to patrol forward, their disobedience will be clearly revealed!"
After Yuwentai heard this, he frowned again and began to think deeply. After a while, he looked up at Yuwenhu and said solemnly: "Jiangling is now the capital of the Liang Kingdom. If you want to make progress, you will have to attack and destroy the country.
You must be cautious when moving forward or retreating. But what you said does make some sense. I will weigh this matter again, so don’t let the plan out for now!"
Yu Wenhu saw that although his uncle did not agree immediately, he still took his plan to heart, so he quickly nodded in agreement, then resigned and went home to rest, yawning profusely.
In the hall, Yu Wentai's thoughts were still immersed in what Yu Wenhu said before. After a while, he spoke again: "Does the office have any memorials from Taiyuan Duke Li Boshan? If so, get them quickly!"
