Before you know it, it's mid-February. (The fastest update speed is on the Aishang Novel Network biquge.info)
The spring season, the palace test, and the southern tour are already close at hand.
Two months is not a long time, but it is enough for people to do a lot of things.
During these days, the common people were busy running for their livelihood, the merchants were busy earning more silver taels, the Qing officials and Qingliu were busy asking for the lives of the people, and the careerists were busy using various schemes to realize their ambitions.
But if you say that the busiest person in the temple in the past two months, I am afraid that it is the prince Zhu and Yu.
Prior to this, although Zhu Heyu was the crown prince, his position in the temple was very embarrassing, because of the suppression of the major factions in the court, and the dislike of Emperor Deqing, he could only play a role similar to the leader of the Qingliu. Now, with the change of Emperor Deqing's attitude, Zhu Heyu finally grasped some power, although he was only presiding over the preparation of the southern tour, but it was obvious that Zhu Heyu was very determined and wanted to use this opportunity to prove his ability to the government and the public.
Therefore, in the past two months, in addition to continuing to lead Qingliu, Zhu Heyu has also devoted himself to the preparations for the southern tour, checking the accounts in the morning, sending people to inspect the place in the afternoon, checking the progress of the project yesterday, and exploring the people's livelihood tomorrow. Busy and busy, it is said that the whole person has lost some weight because of this.
I have to say that Zhu Heyu did a very good job, he implemented all of Zhao Junchen's ideas at the beginning, and what he did was even better than Zhao Junchen expected.
However, as the saying goes, "there is a policy at the top, and there is a countermeasure at the bottom." Although Zhu Heyu tried his best to keep an eye on Yiqiē, he still couldn't stop the local officials' hearts, and the chaos that Zhao Junchen expected at the beginning really appeared one by one.
In order to catch up with the progress, the state officials began to forcibly recruit the people, and the phrase "all voluntary" became empty talk, and the people were full of complaints.
In order to curry favor with the emperor, officials from all over the country made a big move, some built river boats, used cloth and paper forging to decorate the scenery along the way, and some built palaces, all kinds of expenses far exceeded the silver taels allocated by the prince, and the deficit of silver taels naturally needed to be borne by the people.
In order to seek benefits, many transactions between the local large households and the local government, and the credit of the common people in building roads and expanding rivers has been transferred to the local large households who have never contributed to work, and the vast majority of the people are ignorant of this.
Although Zhu Heyu kept a close eye on it, after all, although he was in the capital, although he found a lot and punished a lot, there were always more that he did not find.
It's just that under the intervention of some "well-intentioned people", the resulting contradictions and public grievances have been covered up, and today's center of the capital is still peaceful, and there are even quite a few people who praise Zhu Heyu's merits.
The reason why those "people with hearts" want to do this is not to help the crown prince Zhu and Yu, but just to wait for the accumulation of contradictions and grievances, and under the guidance, let these contradictions and grievances erupt together at the most appropriate time.
The Spring Festival will try, all eyes are on, and the Confucian scholars and celebrities gather in the capital, which may be the most suitable time.
………
Today's Zhao Junchen can probably be classified as a "careerist" and "a person with a heart", and it can be regarded as the one with bad intentions.
Therefore, in the past two months, although Zhao Junchen has claimed to be "recuperating." "But in reality, there is very little time to spare. Or through the expansion of the "Yuerong Fang" to cultivate talents for themselves, or through the Tongji Temple to infiltrate various factions, or to build their own intelligence network in the capital, or to pay attention to the development of glass, Jenny spinning machines and other things.
Of course, Zhao Junchen has always been keeping an eye on the big and small things above the temple, and never let go of the slightest.
However, as the spring season is approaching, Zhao Junchen's biggest concern now is how many available talents he can find in the spring exam.
………
"Liu Zimin is doing a good job." In the study, Zhao Junchen looked at the list in his hand and said with a smile: "I really didn't expect that in just two months, he could find so many 'like-minded' talents, which is rare." ”
The list in Zhao Junchen's hand, Liu Zimin had just been sent to Zhao Mansion not long ago, and the people on the list were all "talents" that Liu Zimin found for Zhao Junchen in the undergraduate examination. Among them, the origin, talent, and heart are all indicated, and under Liu Zimin's Gu huò, they are all interested in getting closer to Zhao Junchen.
Looking at this list, Zhao Junchen seemed to have seen the "Zhao Party" faction slowly growing in the court in the future.
Xu Qingyan nodded with a smile and said, "Yes, young master, although this Liu Zimin is a villain, the villain has the benefits of being a villain." In the past two months, he has been active everywhere, attracting temptations, and clever tongues, among the undergraduates, there are already many people gathered around him, all of whom are willing to take refuge in the young master. ”
After a pause, Xu Qingyan seemed to remember something, and said: "Zhao He and Zhao Xuan, who are now his scholars, have been secretly staring at Liu Zimin these days, according to the news they came, even Zhao Shancai, a talented man in Jiangnan, has been getting closer and closer to Liu Zimin these days, and even began to call him a brother, but Zhao Shancai's attitude towards the young master is not clear, so Liu Zimin did not put him on the list." ”
"Zhao Shancai? Liu Zimin even won over Zhao Shancai? ”
After hearing Xu Qingyan say this, Zhao Junchen couldn't help but be surprised.
Zhao Shancai is one of the most likely candidates to win the Huiyuan in this year's exam, and even Zhao Junchen has heard of his name.
Xu Qingyan shook his head and said: "Although Zhao Shancai is closer to Liu Zimin, he is always like leaving, every time Liu Zimin tests his views and attitudes towards the young master, this Zhao Shancai always avoids talking about it, occasionally has a few words, and there are always praises and disadvantages, but there is no intention of being close to the young master, even if Liu Zimin uses the name of the young master to win him over, this person always diverts the topic, which makes people unable to understand." ”
After listening to Xu Qingyan's explanation, Zhao Junchen became interested and asked, "Is there praise or disapproval?" How did he praise and disparage me? ”
After thinking for a while, Xu Qingyan said: "He said that young master, you are the minister who governs the world, if you are in troubled times, you will be Jia Xu and his ilk, and you will be famous all over the world in the future, but you will have a mixed reputation, and he also said that young master, you have been inspecting Lu'an Mansion before and after, like two people, so that he can't understand." ”
Hearing this evaluation, Zhao Junchen was silent for a moment, then suddenly smiled and said, "Jiān Chen, the ruler of the world, such an evaluation is interesting. ”
After pondering for a while, Zhao Junchen suddenly said again: "You pass a word to Liu Zimin, just say that tomorrow evening, let him take these people on this list to Tianhai Tower for a gathering, I will also happen to go to Tianhai Tower to fight tooth sacrifices, and take the opportunity to meet these people to see how these people are, otherwise just listening to Liu Zimin's one-sided words will always make people feel bottomless, and it is good to see and understand." ”
After a pause, Zhao Junchen said again: "That Zhao Shancai, let Liu Zimin bring it when the time comes, this person may be a real talent, although the attitude is not clear now, it may not be impossible to win over." ”
Regarding Zhao Junchen's order, Xu Qingyan nodded and agreed.
However, after hesitating for a moment, Xu Qingyan said again: "However, young master, although I don't know much about the things in the temple, I always feel that now that you have the intention to use this spring festival to gather a group of talents, do you trust this Liu Zimin too much?" If these people form a small group in the future, just like Zuo Lanshan and take care of them, wouldn't it be difficult to control it? ”
Zhao Junchen said with a smile: "It's okay, Liu Zimin is not so capable, even if these people gather together in the future, it is not a bad thing, now the officials under my door, Zuo Lanshan, Gu Quan They are too big, although I can still control it, but if I can cultivate an opponent for them in the future, it is also a good thing." However, Liu Zimin's batch of lifters is just our talent reserve, and even if we can grow up in the future, I am afraid it will take a while. ”
Just when Zhao Junchen and Xu Qingyan were chatting, someone outside the study reported: "Master Qiqi, the steward of Lord Shoufu's mansion asks to see you." ”
Zhao Junchen nodded slightly at Xu Qingyan, and Xu Qingyan raised his voice and said, "Lead that person to the study." ”
Now, with Zhao Junchen's two-month cultivation, "the body is gradually healing." "It's time to meet guests in a bright and open way.
