"I will meet with Your Majesty and request that a postal department be established under the headquarters of the Ministry of War to take charge of post office affairs across the country and officially take over the world's postal business."
Fang Jun's voice sounded, but the officials in front of him looked confused.
Although they knew that Fang Jun must have important decisions to make today, the establishment of the "Postal Department" under the Ministry of War headquarters still exceeded everyone's expectations.
What is the Post Office...?
It sounds like it is related to the inn, and probably to the "Datang Culture Promotion Association", but I can't think of any connection between the two, and the name is also unheard of...
Just when everyone was still at a loss, Cui Dunli leaned forward slightly and spoke decisively: "Master Fang, you have many important responsibilities on your shoulders. After all, your energy is limited. I am willing to help Master Fang solve his problems. This 'Postal Secretary' will be sent by me."
The official will be responsible for the preparations."
The officials were shocked when they heard this, and then they came to their senses, slapping their thighs and sighing with regret!
Who is Fang Jun? The most popular person in front of His Majesty! As long as he proposes the establishment, the new yamen "Postal Department" of the Ministry of War will definitely be established by the Political Affairs Hall. The most important thing is that although Fang Jun is
Ideas are often wild and unimaginable, but behind every incredible operation, there is a huge success.
Who is the most powerful person in the Ministry of War now?
The first was Liu Shi, the second was Du Zhijing.
Needless to say, Liu Shi, the "Forging Bureau" into which countless money was invested has already become the most watched project in Chang'an City. Even the ministers of the other five ministries are jealous, let alone the officials of the Ministry of War. Du Zhijing is responsible for the painting of Goguryeo.
The map seems to be of no use, but in fact it does not harm Liu Shi at all. Not to mention that after the map is successfully drawn, it will be rewarded by His Majesty. If the Eastern Expedition goes well, it is more likely to win a title for meritorious service. Not only all the military departments and
All the resources of "Eastern Datang Company" belong to Du Zhijing's deployment and appointment, which is enough to make all the officials of the Ministry of War salivate...
Now that Fang Jun is about to set up the "Postal Department", is there any need to doubt the future?
There must be a powerful department in the Ministry of War!
Who in this department is not willing to serve as a doctor?
However, his reaction was just a little slow, and he was overtaken by Cui Dunli...
Mother!
After all, you are also a descendant of the Bolingcui family, so you go out to curry favor with Fang Jun, His Majesty's "vanguard" in suppressing the family. Is it really okay for you to be so thick-skinned?
Fang Jun smiled, nodded and said: "In that case, then Dr. Lao Cui is chosen. However, the specific details of the 'Postal Department' will not be available until I have an audience with His Majesty. In the meantime, you first need to find something easy to use."
The subordinates of the Ministry of War will put together the framework. If the Ministry of War's own department is short of manpower, they can be transferred from various yamen under the Ministry of War, even if they are transferred from other yamen. Anyway, you are a doctor in the official department and you can issue the documents yourself.
I will transfer officials as long as I have no objection."
He was indeed the "vanguard" of His Majesty Li Er in suppressing the clans, but his primary target was not the Shandong nobles headed by the Cui family.
Everything must be prioritized. Blind and rash radicalization will often lead to disappointing results. It is the best strategy to first target the Guanlong nobles and appease the Shandong nobles or even temporarily unite them.
When the officials heard what Fang Jun said, their eyes turned red with envy...
Are officials transferred from various yamen?
But Cui Dunli was allowed to place his cronies at will! There is no doubt that the entire Boling Cui family will benefit a lot from the rise of the "Postal Division". Many descendants and in-laws from the clan will surely be filled in every department of the "Postal Division".
As a result, Cui Dunli will suddenly become a figure with an important say in the family!
The family has a well-organized hierarchy. For an official in his early thirties like Cui Dunli, even a little voice means a straight rise in status, allowing the family to see its bright future and potential. When he is promoted in the future,
There will inevitably be a large amount of family resources tilted...
Don't think that as a descendant of a powerful family, you will definitely receive care and support from your family. Resources are limited, and favors are also limited. The more you use them, the less they will be. How can you allow as few as a dozen or as many as dozens of young people to do so?
There must be choices and priorities, and only those children of powerful families who can be recognized by their families and supported by a large amount of resources can rely on their family's energy to rise through the ranks and rise all the way up.
Cui Dunli didn't expect such a good thing. He was so surprised that his mouth grew slightly. He was stunned for a long time. Then he woke up, quickly stood up from his seat, bowed respectfully, and said with a blushing face: "I'm humble.
Thank you for your trust, Mr. Fang. Please rest assured, Mr. Fang, that I will dedicate myself to my humble position and live up to your trust!"
These words are almost equivalent to a pledge of allegiance.
However, Cui Dunli said it without any pressure. The Shandong nobles were not in the same pot as the Guanlong nobles. Back then, the Guanlong nobles received extremely high political rewards by supporting His Majesty Li Er, so they began to suppress the Shandong nobles.
.
Let’s take a look at the thousand-year-old hairpins and centuries-old Shandong nobles. Only Cui Dunli, Zhang Xingcheng and a few other middle-level officials in the court can be seen how deeply they hate the suppression of the Guanlong nobles...
If we can use Fang Jun's power to free the family from the oppression of the Guanlong nobles, let alone being thick-skinned, even if Cui Dunli kneels down and kowtows, what does it mean?
Fang Jun was also very pleased and accepted Cui Dunli's awareness of current affairs.
You must not underestimate the Shandong nobles. Although the Guanlong nobles have been suppressed since the founding of the Tang Dynasty and have disappeared somewhat, their powerful heritage far exceeds the Guanlong nobles who started their fortunes with the "Six Towns of Xianbei". As long as you give them a little
If you have enough space, you can take advantage of the situation and make waves.
Historically, during the turbulent times in the late Tang Dynasty, almost all the Guanlong nobles were wiped out. However, the Shandong gentry and Jiangnan aristocratic families with deep roots preserved their strength in the turbulent times and continued to do so.
Therefore, you can borrow money from the Shandong nobles, but you must not take this tiger in a cage lightly, otherwise it is very likely to be backlashed by it...
After all, the interests of the family are the supreme pursuit of all sects, and whether it is human relations or morality, it is just a passing cloud in their eyes. Only the survival of the family is the top priority.
After the meeting, Fang Jun was preparing a plan for the "Postal Department" and carefully wrote a memorial, but he received the news that Wei Zheng had died of illness...
Fang Jun sat dumbly in the duty room for a long time, then returned to the mansion to take a shower and change clothes, waiting to go to the Wei Mansion with his father to express condolences.
*****
After returning to the mansion, he took off his official robe, took a shower and changed into a navy blue straight gown. When he came out, he saw his father, Fang Xuanling, already wearing an azure gown. He nodded to Fang Jun with an indifferent expression, and put on his luggage. Go out of the hall first.
Fang Jun quickly followed.
A carriage was already prepared at the door, and Fang Jun did not ride a horse. The father and son shared a carriage and headed directly to the Wei Mansion in Yongxingfang.
Yongxingfang is now filled with white flags and cries.
Although Wei Zheng is a "strong" official in front of His Majesty Li Er, and His Majesty Li Er often gnashes his teeth in hatred towards him, among the people, Wei Zheng's honest and upright style and fair and selfless official reputation are very good, and almost half of Chang'an City After hearing the news of Wei Zheng's death, the people burst into tears and spontaneously went to the Wei Mansion to express their condolences.
Therefore, the gate of Yongxingfang is now filled with people from the city...
The carriage couldn't get through the gate, so it had to get off the carriage quite far away from the gate.
When the Fang family father and son got off the carriage, they saw many horses and carriages on the left and right. They were all nobles, nobles, and officials who came to express their condolences. They couldn't enter the square gate, so they all stopped here, and people walked over.
There were many people in this place, and the generals who had followed them quickly stepped forward to protect the father and son tightly, staring at the nearby people with eager eyes, and entered the square gate under the escort of Jingzhao Mansion officers.
Inside the square gate, an official from the Jingzhao Mansion came forward to salute. He first bowed politely to Fang Xuanling and said hello to Fang Jun. Then he smiled bitterly at Fang Jun and said: "There are many people here, and they all came spontaneously to express their condolences to Duke Wei. It is a despicable job." It is not easy to drive him away, so that the Marquis has to go to this point. It is really a derogatory fault."
Fang Jun nodded and said, "That's right, but you still have to screen carefully to prevent people with ulterior motives from getting in. If something happens, it's a small matter if you get punished, but if it causes bad consequences, it's a big deal." ."
Fang Jun had never met this official, but this did not affect the official's respect for him.
As the first Jingzhao Yin since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, everything in Jingzhao Mansion today was founded by Fang Jun. Which Jingzhao Mansion official dares to be disrespectful in front of Fang Jun?
Although Fang Fu Yin is no longer in Jingzhao Mansion Yamen, the legend of Fang Fu Yin is still circulating in the Yamen...
