The paper in his hand was crumpled into a ball by Zhao Zhen, his eyes flickered, and his face was cloudy and he whispered: "This is not true, is it......"

Kou Ji smiled and took the crumpled paper from Zhao Zhen's hand, spread it out, smoothed it out, and said, "How can it not be true?" I sent someone to investigate. It took more than half a month. ”

Zhao Zhen was still a little unacceptable, he puffed out his little face, and snorted angrily: "The gap between the front and back is too big, right?" ”

"Can't accept it?"

"It's not a little, it's hard to accept."

Zhao Zhen clenched his fists and said indignantly: "The governors, governors, and pacification envoys of the state capitals have advocated so much about the achievements and reputations of the officials under their jurisdiction. In fact, one by one, they did not act in office, and they also looted the people's fat and people's ointment, how do you let me accept it? ”

"Take the Xinping County Decree as an example, he took advantage of the flooding of the Jing River to forcibly occupy tens of thousands of acres of civilian land, and together with his wife and brother, he bribed the bandits on Fotou Mountain with the grain produced in the more than 10,000 acres of civilian fields.

I, an official of the Great Song Dynasty, came out of the bandits, and I didn't know how to exterminate them, but I bribed them with food, how can I accept it? ”

"That Zhizhou Zhizhou, he can still regard this as a political achievement, go to the imperial court, and ask for credit for the Xinping County Order. What do you say that there is merit in controlling Jingshui, the merit is in the community, and the benefit is in the future?

The prefect of Jingzhao Mansion is even more shameless, saying that Xinping County, under its jurisdiction, has now achieved the situation of not closing the door at night and not leaving the road behind, and what else does Xinping County make to govern Xinping? ”

The more Zhao Zhen spoke, the more angry he became, and he couldn't wait to rush out of the door now, and let Chen Lin order the twelve guards and horses to rush to Jingzhao Mansion to kill those shameless officials in Jingzhao Mansion.

Kou Ji easily gathered together the three things he showed Zhao Zhen, handed them to Zhao Zhen, and said faintly: "This kind of problem is not only in Jingzhao Mansion. Other state capitals, too.

Right now, I just turned out the problems of Jingzhao Mansion, and you are so angry, and when I turn out the problems of all the state capitals in the Great Song Dynasty, you still have to be angry. ”

Zhao Zhen slapped the table and scolded: "But I know that these bastards are bringing disaster to the country and the people below, but I can't do anything, and I am very unhappy." ”

Speaking of this, Zhao Zhen seemed to remember something, looked at Kou Ji and asked, "You obviously said that you helped me out a bad breath, but in the end, it made me even more angry." Do you see that I am young and playing with me? ”

Kou Ji wanted to slap Zhao Zhen very much, and as soon as he stretched out his hand, he saw Chen Lin's dead eunuch sticking in with a big head from outside the door.

He could only withdraw his hand and said angrily: "If I wanted to play with you, I wouldn't show you this." ”

Zhao Zhen raised his eyebrows, and said suspiciously: "Do you have any other ways to help me get angry?" ”

Kou Ji said helplessly: "I haven't said my own way yet." ”

"Say it quickly."

Zhao Zhen hurriedly urged.

His heart is now full of the thoughts of rectifying the sanctimonious officials under him.

Kou Ji patted the wind commentary and the performance book in front of Zhao Zhen, and said with a smile: "In view of their merits, the official family should first speak in the court and help them get promoted." ”

"Promotion?"

Zhao Zhen's eyes widened, and he exclaimed, "You want me to promote these bastards?" I hate not to slaughter these bastards, but you let me help these bastards get promoted? You still say that you are not deliberately playing tricks? ”

Kou Ji glared at Zhao Zhen and said nonchalantly, "What are you anxious about?" I haven't finished my words yet, come here with my ears! ”

Zhao Zhen walked to Kou Ji's side angrily, and Kou Ji whispered in his ear.

The expression on Zhao Zhen's face became a little strange.

Kou Ji said a few more words, and the expression on Zhao Zhen's face became even more strange.

After Kou Ji finished speaking, Zhao Zhen squinted his eyes and said with some uncertainty: "Kill them with one sword, isn't it over?" I have to make it so troublesome, so bad. ”

Kou Ji stared at Zhao Zhen and said indifferently: "Then you say, do you want to do it?" ”

The corners of Zhao Zhen's mouth were raised, and he patted the table and said with a smile: "Fuck, why don't you do it, pit this group of bastards." ”

Kou Ji arched his hand and said, "Then I'll wait for your good news." ”

Zhao Zhen snorted twice, like a proud rooster, holding the dossier document given to him by Kou Ji, and striding away from the yamen of the ministry.

Kou Ji sent Zhao Zhen out of the gate of the Yamen of the Ministry of Officials all the way, and then asked people to reseal the door.

He turned around and walked towards the main hall, and after taking two steps, a subordinate official greeted him with a look of embarrassment.

Kou Ji took a look, it was a foreign officer under the Ministry of Officials.

There are four divisions under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Officials, which are the Ministry of Officials, the Department of Seals, the Division of Honors, and the four Divisions of the Examination of Merit.

Si Xun Si Lang Wai Lang is a subordinate officer among Kou Ji's subordinate officials.

The grade is not low, in other dynasties, it is the object of everyone's stitching, but in the Great Song Dynasty, it is an idle errand.

Kou Ji vaguely remembered that when he introduced himself, Si Xun Si Lang said that he was a Jinshi in Jingde for five years.

Jingde is five years, twenty years have passed since now, and Si Xun Si Lang has also been mixed in the court for twenty years.

Although he has been mixed for 20 years, it is not as good as Kou Ji who has been promoted for 2 years.

Compared to other officials, he has risen very quickly.

His qualifications are mediocre, and during his foreign tenure, he did not have any major achievements, thanks to an old man who served as a waiter in the Ministry of Rites, and under the care of his father-in-law, he was steadily promoted to the Ministry of Officials.

Si Xun Wai Lang blocked Kou Ji's way, and said hesitantly: "Kou Shilang......"

Kou Ji glanced at him up and down, and said indifferently: "You are also an official of the imperial court, don't be such a little daughter posture, if you have anything to say, say it frankly." ”

Si Xun Si Lang hesitated for a moment, raised his head, and said, "Kou Shilang, the lower official wants to be transferred to the Ministry of Rites." ”

Kou Ji raised his eyebrows and asked, "Why?" Because your old Taishan is in the Ministry of Rites, you follow him, can you take advantage of this to make some credit and be promoted steadily?

Don't you know that the Ministry of Rites is more like the Qingshui Yamen than my Ministry of Officials?

Our Ministry of Officials managed to snatch some power from the Criminal Division, but the Ministry of Rites didn't grab anything when the Criminal Division was deposed. ”

The reason why Kou Ji said so many things and retained Si Xun Si Lang was because he felt that although this person was not outstanding in his work, he did his duty, and it was very appropriate to stay in his hands as a civil service.

Si Xun Si Lang seemed to have made up his mind, he gritted his teeth and said: "Xia Guan still wants to be transferred to the Ministry of Rites......

Seeing this, Kou Ji frowned, "You have to think clearly, after you go to the Ministry of Rites, your career is likely to stop here." ”

Si Xun Wai Lang said with a bitter face: "The lower officials don't want to, but the lower officials can't bear the rumors in the court." ”

Kou Ji's brows furrowed even tighter, "Is it that you can't stand it, or that old Taishan of yours, who is a waiter, can't stand it?" ”

Si Xun Wai Lang bowed and said in a low voice: "My wife can't stand it......"

Kou Ji admonished: "Those who achieve great things should withstand the pressure." "Mencius" said: Heaven will descend on the people, and they must first suffer their minds, strain their muscles and bones, starve their bodies and skins, and empty their bodies......

You can't stand the slightest rumor, how can you take on a big responsibility. ”

"Xia Guan didn't want to take on a big responsibility."

Si Xun Wai Lang said respectfully.

Kou Ji let out a long sigh, "That's it, since you have made up your mind, I won't force you to keep you." I just hope you don't regret it in the future......"

"The lower officials will not regret it......"

“……”

Kou Ji nodded, led the secretary of the division into the main hall, issued him a paperwork, stamped the seal, and let him leave.

Si Xun Si Lang was transferred to the Ministry of Rites, and Kou Ji didn't need to worry about the follow-up matters.

Since he dared to talk to Kou Ji, it meant that his follow-up retreat had already been arranged, just waiting for Kou Ji to nod.

After the secretary of the division, Wai Lang, took the documents issued by Kou Ji and left, some other officials who had a way and wanted to be transferred also appeared in the main hall of the Yamen of the Ministry of Officials and asked for transfer.

They had the idea of being transferred a long time ago, but they were afraid of offending Kou Ji, so they didn't dare to speak.

Now that Si Xun is such a leading bird, they don't need to hide it anymore.

Thereafter.

Just two days.

Several officials with backgrounds have been transferred out of the Yamen of the Ministry of Officials, and many junior officials have gone through the door and transferred out of the Ministry of Officials.

There were many subordinate officials in the ministry, and in the end, there were less than nine people left.

When these nine old guys without any background appeared in front of Kou Ji, Kou Ji let out a long sigh and stared at them, "I don't know whether to feel sad for you or happy for you. ”

Kou Ji's words, the nine subordinate officials only understood half of them.

That's the first half.

People with identities and backgrounds have found ways to transfer out of the ministry and go to other places to be at ease.

The remaining nine of them had no identity and no background, and stayed in the ministry to follow Kou Ji to suffer.

Koji said that he was glad for them, and that they were only sarcastic.

Kou Ji didn't explain too much, waved at them, and told them to continue their work.

After the nine people left, Kou Ji looked in the direction of the vertical arch hall and said faintly: "It's been silent for two days, it's time to make a move, right?" ”

He was a little disgusted that Zhao Zhen's work efficiency was too low.

He didn't know that Zhao Zhen was also helpless.

Originally, after Zhao Zhen got the things given by Kou Ji, he wanted to exert his power in the court.

It's just that the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were busy with the dispatch and streamlining of the six armies such as Huaide and Zhenrong, and no one cared about him.

This delay is two days.

Until today.

Cao Yu bluntly said on the vertical arch hall that the Huaide Sixth Army had been transferred to the front line of the Great Wall, and the two of them, Chong Shiheng and Zhi Weizhong, began to implement the elite army decree under the supervision of Wang Shu, who was sent by the imperial court.

With regard to the Northern Frontier of the Great Song Dynasty, the issue of the deployment and streamlining of the Sixth Army has only officially come to an end.

Zhao Zhen saw that Gao Di Gong was out of class, and he was about to spray Wenchen again, and he coughed heavily.

"Ahem!"

Too deliberate, too loud.

All of a sudden, the attention of the Manchu Dynasty and the civil and military forces attracted him.

The Manchu Dynasty civil and military looked at him very strangely.

It's like a child who suddenly jumps out to attract attention when he sees a guest at home.

Zhao Zhen's face was a little hot when he was seen by the Manchu Dynasty civil and military, he resisted the urge to cover his face and run out of the vertical arch hall, and said in a slightly uneven voice: "Taishi, I heard that the Ministry of Officials is sorting out the files of the Manchu Dynasty civil and military in recent days, and I can't help but go over and take a look.

It's okay not to look at it, but when I look at it, I was surprised.

I actually found a lot of good people in the files sorted out by the officials.

I took advantage of Xiao Kou Aiqing's inattention and took out those files.

You can help us to see if these good talents can be entrusted with important tasks. ”

Zhao Zhen asked Chen Lin to take out the file and handed it to Kou Zhun.

The reason why he said that he stole these files, not gave them to Kou Ji, was that he was afraid of getting Kou Ji into trouble.

After all, if Kou Ji makes a mistake, he may be demoted or punished. But he made a mistake, and the officials could only stare dryly, except for a few blind comparisons.

Kou Zhun stretched out his hand to take the file in Zhao Zhen's hand and thought to himself.

He was thinking about whether Zhao Zhen was cultivating his henchmen.

Or that Zhao Zhen and Kou Ji are working together to cultivate a group of henchmen.

As for Zhao Zhen's statement that he stole these files from the yamen of the ministry, Kou Zhun didn't believe a word.

With his understanding of Kou Ji, if Kou Ji was unwilling to let Zhao Zhen take these things, even if Zhao Zhen turned into a mouse, he would not be able to steal them from Kou Ji.

However, he still symbolically reprimanded Zhao Zhen twice, "The official family, taking the file of the Ministry of Officials, is not the work of the king." All you can see is your stuff. As long as you want to see it and want it, you can let the courtiers bring it up, and there is no need to take it yourself. ”

After reprimanding Zhao Zhen, Kou Zhun opened the file and glanced at it.

After flipping through it slightly, Kou Zhun didn't say a word, and handed the file to Chen Lin with his backhand, asking Chen Lin to show it to Xiang Minzhong.

Xiang Minzhong opened the file, glanced at it twice, and handed it to Wang Zeng.

Wang Zeng glanced at it twice and threw it at Li Di.

Li Di didn't even look at it, and threw it to the others.

The four old guys have already become elites, and they know Kou Ji very well, so after seeing the contents of the file, they know that Kou Ji, the little guy, is going to trick people again.

So they made a tacit choice and didn't say anything.

It's not that they haven't seen good officials, but like the goods mentioned in the file, they are obviously overblowing.

What's so greasy in this, the four of them also know it in their hearts.

The dossier swirled around in the hands of a group of officials.

Most of the officials saw the trick in it, after all, some of them were also touted in this way, and it was not a secret to them. However, they still pretended to nod their heads frequently, as if they were satisfied with the officials mentioned in the file.

When the file turned around and returned to Kou Zhun's hands.

Kou Zhun pinched the file and asked lightly: "The official family thinks that these people should be reused, what do you think?" ”

In the imperial history, Cheng Cheng said: "The ministers think that they are all pillars of the imperial court and should be reused." ”

"The minister seconded the proposal!"

"The minister seconded the proposal!"

“……”

A quarter of an hour later, half of the officials in the court agreed to promote them.

After listening to the statements of the officials, Kou Zhun asked Zhao Zhen, "What do the officials think?" ”

Zhao Zhen laughed softly: "What you Aiqing means is what I mean. ”

Kou Zhun nodded slowly, handed the file in his hand to the third envoy, and said, "Then the third division and the ministry will be called." ”

The third envoy took the file and agreed.

Afterwards, Kou Zhungao sat on a chair and continued to listen to the quarrels between the officials of the civil and military classes.

From time to time, he would interject and say a few words to help the civil officials.

With the help of Kou Zhun, the civil officials scolded the martial artists who were defeated and retreated.

The civil officials have also learned to be obedient and no longer demand that all the van troops be abolished at once.

They learned from Kou Zhun's method and demanded that the imperial court continue to streamline the box army in the northeast and eastern frontiers after the box army in the northern frontier was streamlined.

even took out the Baosai Army in Baozhou as an example to shame Wuxun.

The martial artists were forced to take another step back and give up the number of troops in the Northeast and Eastern Frontier Border Army.

The civil officials bit off a piece of meat from the martial artists, as if they had won some great victory, and left the court with joy.

From beginning to end, few people had any doubts about Zhao Zhen's proposal to promote those officials.

No one carefully observed that when Zhao Zhen proposed to promote those officials, Kou Zhun and the four did not express their position.

Even when Kou Zhun ordered the third division to promote those people, his words were ambiguous.
