At one hour, Fu Bi read out the work report very well.
The meeting is set to end in five days, and each day is a full day of meetings.
An hour is a time of experience.
When Fu Bi's reading stopped, the entire Qinzheng Hall was still immersed in the prosperity of the dynasty. The ministers and workers were all shocked by the changes in the dynasty.
There should be applause here...~but there wasn't. Even Fu Bi forgot to remind him to adjourn the meeting and was moved by his report.
"Ding Dong...~"
The sound of Zhao Xi knocking on the golden pot made Fu Bi wake up.
"I congratulate Your Majesty! You have laid the foundation for the great achievements of the Song Dynasty for thousands of years!"
"I congratulate Your Majesty! You have laid the foundation for the great achievements of the Song Dynasty for thousands of years!"
…~
There is no such link! Zhao Xi was stunned by Fu Bi's abrupt approach.
According to the agenda, Fu Bi should have announced the adjournment of the meeting at this time, and Zhao Xi would give the meal... It started at Mao hour, which was about nine o'clock, and now the work report is over, and it is almost lunch time.
But Fu Bi suddenly came, and then the ministers and servants of Qinzheng Palace also followed Fu Bi to congratulate His Majesty.
At this time, the congratulations from the courtiers should be sincere...
"Dear ministers, the prosperous age of the Song Dynasty has arrived, and I will join you in this grand event! Come here...~Give me a meal!"
At this time, maybe shouting "Yin Sheng" would suit the current atmosphere.
Zhao Xi could feel the excitement and excitement lingering in the Qinzheng Hall...~
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
The effectiveness of collective activities in cohesion has been proven, and there are many such examples in later generations.
The purpose of the Great Court Meeting is not only a way or form of government affairs, but also a way to increase cohesion.
Working together is not something that can be achieved just by talking about it. It requires the help of different methods and methods, and this is the case with the current Dachang Conference.
There were court meetings in the past, but in the past, court meetings were limited to various yamen of the imperial court, or officials of the fifth rank or above in Beijing.
Without contact with the place, without understanding the real situation, all the thoughts are focused on internal fighting, and gradually the atmosphere of a court meeting is formed... making noise. Making trouble for interests, for the circle, for position, for cliques, and for a sense of existence.
In today's court meetings, there is still competition, but the content of competition is from pragmatism to position orientation. This foundation also makes it possible to gather the centripetal force of courtiers.
Maybe there are novel reasons, but in general, halfway through this first court meeting, a certain degree of cohesion has indeed been formed.
The environment changes people, and the environment also creates people. The difference between the original court meeting environment and the current court meeting environment will naturally lead to changes in the courtiers.
Zhao Xi firmly believes in this.
…
In the past, it was rare for the palace maids in the inner court to see court officials. Even when there was a need for the inner court, it was the inner eunuch who came forward most often.
And this time, since it was a big change, Zhao Xi asked the maids from the inner garden to come forward...
Row after row, the maids hiring Tingting appeared, and the side door of Congqin Zheng Palace appeared.
Everyone is carrying a tray, which is rectangular and has a lid.
The number of rows of palace maids is the same as the number of rows of seats in Qinzheng Palace. Although we cannot see the number of people in each row, we can conclude that the number of people in each row should be the same as the number of courtiers.
Whether it was the cabinet or the government, including those officials from the local areas, they were confused by this operation and had no idea what the officials meant.
Although the palace maids in the inner gardens of the Song Dynasty are not lifelong, especially those who have not been favored by the officials, when they reach a certain age, they will be pardoned by the officials and ordered to leave the palace, and some can even find a family to marry.
Peaceful days.
Just like the concubines of wealthy and powerful merchants, they have a service limit.
But this has never happened before. The official family actually let the maids from the inner garden come to the Qinzheng Palace to work...
Fu Bi, including the cabinet ministers, wanted to give advice, but under the current situation, it was really not appropriate to ruin the atmosphere created.
It goes against etiquette... But I don’t even think about it. How does the current court meeting model fit in with etiquette?
As for Zhao Xi, he does not regard the maids in the inner garden as his collection.
For example, the palace maids of his father's generation, when Zhao Xi was still the prince, started to make a living in Zhangluo Neiyuan, and they were already looking for a way out for the poor people.
The food factories, wool workshops, tent workshops, military quilt workshops, etc. that still belong to the Neiyuan are all suitable businesses for the ladies of the Neiyuan.
When Zhao Xi came to the throne, he issued a large-scale amnesty to Neiyuan, giving freedom to those who were suffering.
Up to now, many of the maids who have been pardoned from the palace have sons and daughters, and they have all lived the lives of ordinary families.
Therefore, when it came to the palace maids in the inner garden, the queen always followed Zhao Xi's wishes and treated the palace maids as hired workers...
Therefore, it is not surprising to enter Qinzheng Hall now.
As the palace ladies took their positions corresponding to the courtiers, the Qinzheng Palace formed a palace where each courtier faced a palace lady. The palace ladies were also carrying trays...~
Such a scenario can be tolerated by cabinet ministers, including those who discuss politics, and even most of them who participate in politics.
But for those officials, it was a bit embarrassing, and they lowered their heads and did not dare to look at the palace maids.
"Give me a meal!"
Following Wang Zhongzheng's shout, the palace maid who entered the Qinzheng Palace placed the tray on the table in front of the servants at the same time, and then opened the lid.
This...even cabinet ministers like Fu Bi were stunned. They were familiar with this. This is the way of eating in the workshops in Gongfang City...
"Everyone, please enjoy your meal!"
At this time, the ministers and workers looked up at the official house. The same was true for the official house, and it was no different.
Alas... the officials never mentioned this! Fu Bi was helpless, and all the cabinet ministers were helpless. Except for Wang Anshi, he had already started when the officials finished speaking.
Zhao Xi is not sure about the effect of this. In later generations, this will be a show, a so-called show of being together. He is not sure whether it will be effective in this era.
The palace maids have withdrawn, but the minds of most of the ministers are still in a short-circuit situation.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for the meal!"
Fu Bi had no choice but to cooperate with the officials in doing this. He didn't agree with this approach, not because he didn't agree with the officials' show, but because he didn't agree with letting the palace maids come forward.
However, this form of sharing meals with ministers and workers is worthy of cooperation.
As expected, most of the ministers and workers were truly moved at this time...
In any case, even if the country has some rhetoric about sharing the world with the scholar-bureaucrats, for the courtiers, the king is still a king, and it is still quite an honor to be given meals by officials.
Cabinet ministers don't care, because they are often given banquets by officials, but from the executive level down, such opportunities are rarely given.
From this point of view, Zhao Xi's step should have worked, achieved the expected purpose, and even exceeded expectations.
After all, in this era, such a form is still rare.
From the form of the Qinzheng Hall, where ministers once again resumed sitting down to discuss politics, to Fu Bi's work report describing the achievements of the country over the years, and the entire architectural style of the Qinzheng Hall, for the courtiers, it was
New and exciting.
Zhao Xi accepted such an environment and atmosphere, and finally gave him a meal and then used such a hand. The whole process of winning the minister's heart was almost perfect.
