"This... Mr. Liu, what you said is quite easy. Everyone can see this, but how to do it is a troublesome matter."
Wang Wuji said in a deep voice.
Liu Chengfeng's eyes were rolling around. At this time, he had already seen that Wang Wuji had fallen into his trap.
"Master Wang, don't you still know exactly what to do?"
Liu Chengfeng deliberately put it off and looked at Wang Wuji meaningfully.
"Master Liu, you don't mean to ask me to follow the Ministry of Rites and take action against the literati in the world. Alas! Now the Ministry of Punishments already has some opinions on my Ministry of Officials. If I do this, I am not asking for trouble.
?"
Wang Wuji said in a deep voice.
The last time he proposed to His Highness the Crown Prince, he should kill all the literati who were making trouble in the world. His Highness the Crown Prince refused directly, and this matter reached the ears of Du Buju, the Minister of Punishment, which caused Du Buju to have a strong opinion of him.
It means to fall out directly.
Moreover, yamen in various places were besieged by literati. Du Buju also blamed the Ministry of Personnel for this matter, thinking that there was something wrong with the officials appointed by the Ministry of Punishment.
In short, no one openly debates these matters, but the competition behind the scenes is very fierce.
"Haha! Mr. Wang, the Minister of Punishment has a problem with you. As long as His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has no problem with you, that's fine, right?
Could it be that he, a small official of the Ministry of Justice, can still influence His Highness the Crown Prince?"
Liu Chengfeng said with a sneer.
this……
In Wang Wuji's mind, his thoughts changed wildly, and then he said: "Master Liu, I understand what you mean. His Highness the Crown Prince wants the world's literati to have equal status with ordinary people, and to promote simplified Chinese characters on a large scale."
"Then I, our staff department, just need to do what His Highness the Crown Prince wants. Your Rites Department is doing this, so my staff department should add fuel to the fire."
"How about this?
When our Ministry of Personnel appoints new officials, we must add an additional review. If you want to be an official, you must know simplified Chinese!"
After hearing this, Liu Chengfeng shook his head and said, "Master Wang, you are playing with fire. If His Highness the Crown Prince wants to make this move, do you still need to do it?"
"My suggestion is to start with the smaller soldiers, such as the servants in the yamen, police officers, etc. You don't have to force them to learn, you just need to add a new organization to them."
"For example, if a catcher learns simplified Chinese characters, then he is a catcher registered in the Ministry of Personnel. His status is not as good as the county magistrate, but the county magistrate cannot dismiss him at will. After all, once he is registered in the Ministry of Personnel, he becomes an official.
under the jurisdiction of the Ministry.”
"Another example is that young police officers and police officers can only be promoted to chief police officers if they have learned simplified Chinese characters. Moreover, if they have learned simplified Chinese characters and pass the assessment, they can also be registered in the Ministry of Personnel."
"And those who are not police officers or police officers, if they want to become police officers or police officers, they need to take the assessment in simplified Chinese, and I will help Mr. Wang with the content of this assessment."
"Master Wang, what do you think of Liu's method?"
Liu Chengfeng said with a smile.
What he said was exactly what Lin Fan asked him to do, and at the same time, he also took the initiative to mention it.
Originally, he wanted to give some benefits to the officials in the Ministry of Personnel and handled the matter. However, this Wang Wuji came to his door by himself, so don't blame me for deceiving you!
"Well! Mr. Liu, your idea is really brilliant!"
Wang Wuji praised greatly after hearing this.
In this way, their bureaucracy did not directly offend the literati. After all, catching agents, servants, and arresting heads were all jobs that literati did not bother to do.
But these are the warriors that the common people desire. For a long time, if you want to become a servant of the yamen, you need to give gifts.
Not to mention, most of the officers in the yamen are illiterate and have little knowledge, especially those in small counties, who are domineering and lawless!
If you learn simplified Chinese characters, you can also produce several books of Ming Dynasty rules in simplified characters, so that every officer can memorize them. At the same time, simplified characters are also written words, which can also improve their knowledge and quality.
Kill multiple birds with one stone!
"Haha! Mr. Wang, if you can agree with my proposal, that would be the best."
Liu Chengfeng said with a smile.
"Master Liu must be outstanding in order to be appreciated by His Highness the Crown Prince. This random suggestion is the finishing touch, and I naturally agree with it!"
Wang Wuji said with a smile.
Liu Chengfeng came to the official department and completed half of the tasks assigned to him by His Royal Highness. Naturally, he felt happy and said: "Master Wang, we two hit it off, so there are some things I still want to do."
Just remind you."
Wang Wuji now had a new appointment for Liu Chengfeng. He looked at Liu Chengfeng and asked: "Master Liu, what do you want to remind me?"
"Lord Wang, do you know what tasks His Highness the Crown Prince has given me?"
Liu Chengfeng said.
"What?"
Wang Wuji looked at Liu Chengfeng without blinking.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince asked me to prepare seeds for the common people to sow in the second year. As long as they learn simplified Chinese characters, they can receive them for free."
"This task is not difficult. I will go to the Ministry of Revenue and talk to Mr. Ni. It is not difficult. However, the distribution of these seeds still needs people from the Ministry of Punishments."
"It wouldn't be difficult for me to talk to Mr. Du about this matter, but I think it would be safer for Mr. Wang to work with me on this matter."
Liu Chengfeng said in a deep voice.
Liu Chengfeng actually didn't think that I could fool Du Buju, but if he took Wang Wuji with him, his confidence would be greatly increased.
"Well! Why are you taking me with you? It will be safer?"
Wang Wuji asked.
"Master Wang, think about it, you are the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, in charge of the appointment and dismissal of officials, and you also need to communicate with the Ministry of Punishments about the establishment of police officers, sergeants, and arrests."
"You have to go sooner or later, why don't you come with me?
Telling Du Shangshu about this matter also gives Du Shangshu an opportunity to express himself. No wonder he still wants to read you."
Liu Chengfeng said in a deep voice.
this……
Wang Wuji now looks at Liu Chengfeng with a bit of admiration in his eyes. This guy is really a talent and thinks things through so carefully. No wonder His Highness the Crown Prince would promote him.
"Master Liu, your proposal is very good. I will invite Shangshu Xue to come with me, and we will go to the Ministry of Punishment to discuss this matter with Du Shangshu."
Wang Wuji said in a deep voice.
"Okay! Since Mr. Wang has agreed, I will leave first. The official uniform matter is not urgent. It is the official registration matter. You have to take care of it as soon as possible."
Liu Chengfeng said with a smile.
"Don't worry, I'll have my official uniform and new official badge delivered to you tonight."
Wang Wuji said with a smile.
An official badge is a token similar to an official seal that can prove the identity of an official.
