The emperor dropped the book in his hand and snorted coldly.
The others sat in their seats and meditated. The prince suggested: "Father, why don't you let the imperial army go there."
The emperor glanced at him and said: "It's just some tenants making trouble, why do we need the imperial army to go over?"
Prince:...Are the tenants making trouble? They are clearly those local wealthy families.
However, he cursed in his heart and did not say it out loud.
Wei Zhi did not want to use too radical methods, so using the imperial army would be faster, but the consequences would be endless. If other local nobles saw this, they would probably become wary and hostile towards the imperial court.
It is not appropriate to intensify conflicts at this time.
Therefore, he suggested: "Your Majesty, why not select some officials to visit Qizhou to appease him."
The emperor nodded repeatedly, which was what he meant, so he glanced down and asked: "Do you have any good candidates?"
Yin Li's eyes flashed and he stepped out and said: "Your Majesty, I think we can send Tang He there. If there is indeed a local big family inciting the tenant farmers to cause trouble, he should be able to find out and use this to bring them to justice."
Without evidence, it would be difficult for them to take action, but if there is evidence, it will be different.
But the matter is not very big, and it is impossible to ask several ministers of the court to come forward. Instead, we can choose carefully from among the young officials.
Yin Li thought Tang He was good.
Mr. Old Tang's eyebrows twitched but he said nothing. The emperor did not ask his opinion, but turned to Wei Zhi and asked, "What do Wei Qing think?"
After Wei Zhi was done, he said, "Yes."
Yin Li was satisfied and asked: "Who do you think your Majesty can take over as the magistrate of Chang'an County?"
The emperor knocked on the table and thought deeply. To be the magistrate of Chang'an County, first of all, he must not be of low origin, otherwise he will not be able to suppress the civil and military families of the dynasty. Secondly, he must not have a soft temper, otherwise he will be a loser. Wouldn't his Chang'an be successful?
A sieve?
It can't be too tough, otherwise something will happen within a few months and he will have to wipe his ass. Who is the county magistrate for whom?
The emperor began to think deeply, and after a while he said, "Guo Yu is quite good."
Not to mention Wei Zhi, Mr. Old Tang almost wanted to vomit blood. He said angrily: "Your Majesty, Guo Yu is now the magistrate of Wannian County."
Although Wannian County and Chang'an County have the same rank, the magistrate of Chang'an County was before the magistrate of Wannian County. Guo Yu neglected his duties and was about to be released. But now you want to bring him to Chang'an County. This
Wouldn't it be better to switch from left hand to right hand?
How to manage a team when rewards and punishments are unclear?
However, the emperor felt that since there was an inside story to the farm fight, it was uncontrollable. If it was done by calculation but not by intention, how could Guo Yu hide?
So this is forgivable?
Yin Li thought about it and felt that he had already promoted one subordinate, and it would not matter if he promoted another one, so he agreed with the emperor's statement. If he really wanted to punish Magistrate Guo, he could punish him elsewhere, such as giving him two years.
salary, a confession, and so on.
Mr. Old Tang thought for a while but still refused. Some rules still have to be said. Nothing can be done without knowing the rewards and punishments. This matter cannot be an exception.
The matter was put aside for the time being. The emperor thought for a while, left Bai Shan behind, and asked him, "What do you think of County Magistrate Guo?"
As a member of Zhongshushe, the emperor would ask questions about government affairs from time to time. This was normal operation, so Bai Shan also responded normally: "I think it's good."
He thought for a while and then said: "Although rewards and punishments must be clear, it is not a bad idea to make exceptions occasionally. Magistrate Guo was derelict in his duty when there was a fight in the farm, but he is also somewhat innocent."
The emperor nodded with deep understanding and asked with a smile: "So there is a magistrate of Chang'an County, but there is no magistrate of Wannian County. Who do you think is suitable?"
Bai Shan thought about it seriously and then shook his head, "I know only a limited number of people. Your Majesty may ask Mr. Wei and others."
"I do have a candidate," he looked at Bai Shan and said with a smile, "I think you are good."
Bai Shan was surprised for a moment, and then immediately resigned, "Your Majesty, I am not a suitable minister."
The emperor asked him, "Why are you not suitable?"
Bai Shandao: "Wannian County, like Chang'an County, is a capital county and is very important. Every county magistrate has experience in managing local areas. The ministers just entered officialdom. After leaving the Hanlin Academy, they entered the Zhongshu Province and
Without experience, I am afraid that I will disappoint His Majesty's high expectations when I come to take charge of Wannian County."
The emperor frowned and thought.
Seeing this, Bai Shan took the opportunity and said: "Your Majesty, I want to choose to be sent abroad."
The emperor's brows furrowed even more tightly, "How long have you been promoted to Zhongshusheren? Why do you want to be released?"
"I want to learn how to manage local affairs," said Bai Shandao: "After entering the Zhongshu Province, I realized that what I learned in the book is still too simple. When your Majesty asks about the government, I often feel trembling, fearing that I will not be able to answer it."
He said: "It's not that I haven't read enough books, but that my knowledge is not enough, and this knowledge cannot be learned from books, or even learned in the Hanlin Academy and the Ministry of Education."
The emperor lowered his eyes and thought, then raised his eyes and stared at him. After a while, he asked: "Where do you want to go?"
Bai Shan was not polite and said: "I want to go to a middle or lower county. Anyway, it doesn't matter if it's not Guo County."
The emperor understood it after thinking about it for a moment, couldn't help but laugh, pointed his finger at him and said: "You are not polite, you also know how to avoid others."
Bai Shan lowered his head and stared at his toes.
The emperor stood up, turned around twice and said: "That's fine, but there is no suitable position at this time. You should continue to stay in Zhongshu Province."
Bai Shan lowered his head and responded, but he was very happy in his heart. He knew that the emperor had promised him and would only let him go when he got a suitable position.
Bai Shan respectfully resigned.
Liang Li wrote it down honestly, but felt a little sad in his heart. He finally got to know someone well, and there was someone who would help him sharpen his ink when he was busy, but now this person was about to fly away.
I don’t know when he will be able to move up the ranks and no longer be a common man squatting in a corner, but become a historian in a high room, flipping through daily records and compiling history.
The emperor began to find out the roster he had memorized, and began to use a pen to calculate who else could be the magistrate of Wannian County and Chang'an County.
Gu Zhong smiled and refilled his cup of tea, "Your Majesty, why don't you rest your eyes."
The emperor sighed and put down the roster, "There are still a few available people."
"Then your Majesty agreed to Lord Bai to go out?" Gu Zhong said with a smile: "I see that Lord Bai is smart, but he has no experience now. He will learn it after taking office for a while."
The emperor shook his head and said: "He has a longer way to go, I can't stop him."
The emperor thought of something, put down his pen and said with a smile: "Who was not crazy when he was young? This child is not only crazy, he is also crazy and self-aware. I have met many children over the years, and Yang Heshu is the only one with him."
