Chapter 361: Wei Shangshu's Principles

Jia Huan's nearly 10-day trip to Yangzhou was mainly for the Huaiyang Governor Sha Sheng to compile and guide the disaster relief strategy and regulations. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

During the flood in the ninth year of Yongzhi, Sha Sheng witnessed the final moment, and the subsequent reconstruction of Dongzhuang Town. Therefore, Master He was sent over to ask Jia Huan to go to Huainan to staff on disaster relief-related matters.

Jia Huan wrote out the disaster relief strategy and regulations, formed a document, and then explained it clearly, and completed his task.

This is different from the one at the academy. This area affected by the disaster was much larger, but at the same time, there were various levels of the imperial court involved in the disaster relief. There is no need for Jia Huan to do it himself, there are many officials in the yamen who can do things.

If he really wants to go to the front line of disaster relief to command and do things, it can only show one problem, the officialdom of Da Zhou is rotten from the roots. Before the catastrophe, even the most basic executive orders could not be issued, and the loss of power was not far away. Obviously, the situation has not yet reached this point.

An edict from the imperial court allowed Jinling to supply grain. This is the meaning of the question. The taxes in the Jiangnan region of the national dynasty were all paid in Nanjing, and then transported to the capital by Cao. Avoid the evil government of the former Ming Dynasty to let the grain chief transport grain to the capital.

There is money and grain storage here in Jinling. It is managed by the Nanjing Household Department. The communication between Sha Sheng, the governor of Huaiyang, and Wei Hong, the secretary of the household department in Nanjing, was by Sha Sheng's confidant and aide Master He. Jia Huan didn't care about it.

Weihong, the head of the household department, invited Jia Huan to participate in the coordination of disaster relief money and food, and he took a fancy to Jia Huan's scheming and wisdom. His sons and grandsons praised Jia Huan in his family letters. He also witnessed Jia Huan's ability in the Oiran Competition.

As a senior member of the party who once served as a political envoy, how to use people is a basic ability. He is also willing to trust and treat talented people with respect. Even if Jia Huan is only twelve years old now.

Therefore, when Jia Huan came back from Yangzhou, he still had the task of planning for Wei Shangshu.

From Jia Huan's personal point of view, he didn't feel that he should feel honored to work for Shangshu. In terms of power, the governor of Shuntian before the mountain chief, the imperial history of the left deputy capital, and the governor of Huaiyang of Mr. Sha are all heavier than Wei Shangshu.

Jia Huan has always been very purposeful in doing things. He came to Jiangnan for four purposes: studying, the back road, pressing Jiayu Village, and dividing the Zhen family. Two have already been completed. With the prospect of holding the Enko Shogunate next spring, he was not willing to waste his time in the shogunate of Wei Shangshu. It is the responsibility of the government to provide relief to the victims, not his.

Of course, he went to Yangzhou to help Mr. Sha plan, because he and Mr. Sha have a teacher-student relationship.

However, Wei Shangshu invited him through the mountain chief to deal with the matter of grain transfer and disaster relief. The mountain chief is compassionate and compassionate, and has the humanistic feelings of Confucianism. Huainan became Zeguo, and the mountain chief sighed in his heart, so he asked him to assist Wei Shangshu.

Jia Huan gently rubbed his eyebrows, thinking in his head.

Do you dare? This is a very strong "motivating plan" words. However, he is not a three-year-old child, and as soon as his brain is hot, he will work against the Chen family, the head of Jinling's civil officials.

Wei Hong did not investigate the corruption and pollution of the grain depot at this juncture, but made it clear that he was focusing on the overall situation, transporting grain for disaster relief first, and settling accounts after the autumn.

And what is the use of using newspapers to stir up public opinion to attack the Chen family? If the Chen family doesn't lower the price of rice, will anyone dare to smash and rob it? There was no disaster in Jinling City.

"Wei Situ wants to use the power of public opinion to force grain prices and the Chen family?"

"Not bad. If the Chen family is shameless, when the discussion is boiling, the old man will write to the court. ”

Wei Hong is 58 years old, slightly chubby, slightly old-looking, and wears light gray civilian clothes at home. Before he came to Nanjing, he served as the political envoy of Xibu. seems to be kind, and occasionally the majesty of the feudal officials is revealed.

At this time, he was talking in private in the study, Wei Hong was emotional, his face was a little angry, and he said bluntly: "Ziyu doesn't have to speculate in his heart, the old man is also selfish. Chen Gaolang was a scholar in vain. When Huainan was a country, he actually allowed his family to make a fortune. Damn, the books are all on dogs.

Thousands of miles to be an official's wealth. The old man has been in the sea for decades, and he will never dare to call himself a clean official. Tricks have also been used. But to be a person and an official, you must have a bottom line. Small sections can be lost, but major sections cannot be lost. If there is no principle, how is it different from a beast? You must know that the history is clear, and the history is like a knife! ”

Jia Huan was suddenly slightly moved.

An old bureaucrat like Wei Hong, he can't judge whether what he says is true or performing. Someone once commented on Liu Bei in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Liu Bei played benevolence and righteousness for a lifetime, what is the difference between fake and real?

At this time, Jia Huan also felt a little like this. If Wei Hong maintains his point of view, he will definitely be able to go to the position of cabinet minister.

Whether it is in the shopping mall or in the officialdom, a person who only knows how to raise his hand, or stands in line and raises his hand without principle, will not go far. The principle that a person adheres to is his personality charm will have followers.

Jia Huan knows the truth. In his previous life, he was a poor student, and he was able to climb to a middle-level position in a large company, relying on this. Have a group of followers. And why should others follow you? The bond of interest is necessary, but it is also very weak. Only a team that relies on personal charm to gather is a strong soldier. This is evident in large, successful companies. For example, Alibaba's founding team and Jack Ma.

Jia Huan had some good feelings for Wei Hong in his heart.

Perhaps, it can make Jia Huan have a good impression in such a short period of time, and it is also the ability of Wei Hong, a former political envoy!

Wei Hong took a sip of tea, took a breath, and continued: "Ziyu, you must know that corruption and perversion of the law have nothing to do with the evaluation of history books. A clean official is not the same as a good official. A powerful minister is not the same as a traitor. Yang Tinghe, the first assistant of the former Ming Dynasty, was a generation of powerful ministers, and above the history books, the evaluation was a virtuous minister. Xu Jie, whose family is the largest landlord in Songjiang Mansion, how can there be no violation of the law? He is also a virtuous minister. Zhang Juzheng, the power is all over the world, and Weifu uses it for his own use. And what about his assessment? Great Ming Xianxiang!

Why? In his position, he must seek his own government. As the first assistant, we must ensure that the treasury is full, the government is clear, the society is stable, and the small people live and work in peace and contentment. It is beneficial to the country, even if there is a loss in personal privacy, you can calmly face the comments of future generations. ”

There is something didactic about these words. Very sincerely. This is the principle of being a man for an official.

Jia Huan is naturally not a twelve-year-old boy, and he has a deep understanding of these things.

Wei Hong looked at the young man sitting upright, and suddenly laughed, "Ziyu's age... It's similar to Yang Wenzhong! ”

The corners of Jia Huan's mouth flashed with a wry smile, and he said humbly: "The student's name is on the laurel list, and I want Mr. Xie Fang to do his best to overcome public opinion." ”

At his current age, if he had to set a template for his achievements on the road to the imperial examination, that is, Yang Tinghe, the first assistant of the Ming Dynasty. In the seventh year of Ming Chenghua, Yang Tinghe was 12 years old. He was younger than Yang Tinghe.

Yang Shoufu went through four dynasties, and Zhengde was in charge of the center of the Ming Empire for seven years, and his power was overwhelming. Emperor Jiajing's succession to the throne was determined by him. The evaluation of the history books is very high: born as a man, a master craftsman. There is also Yang Shen, the son of the three great talents of the Ming Dynasty. It can be called a model of Wenchen.

At the age of twelve, he is analogous to Yang Tinghe, which is a bit of a killing! It's stressful.

Wei Hong smiled and waved his hand, "Mr. Wangxi has a discerning eye. As he spoke, he glanced at Jia Huan. Jia Huan hadn't answered his question yet.

Wei Hong first played the sentimental card, and then praised Jia Huan like this, the atmosphere in the study was very good, and it was very harmonious.

Every high-ranking official has something special.

Jia Huan was silent.

He is past the age of being moved by praise and feelings. An article attacking the Chen family was published in Guozijian's Jinling Bulletin. Wei Shangshu will benefit. First, we need to keep food prices down. Complete the current task. This will inevitably leave the impression of a capable minister on the Son of Heaven. Second, promotion. There are two possibilities. First, Chen Gaolang stepped down in a series of subsequent political struggles, and Wei Shangshu took over. Second, Chen Gaolang escaped safely, and Wei Shangshu was promoted to other positions with merit.

However, when he came out as a pioneer, he couldn't just be for feelings, right? It was completely deceived by Wei Shangshu into charging for it.

He doesn't do this kind of thing!

Wei Hong only paused for a short time, his eyes swept over Jia Huan's silent face, smiled slightly, and said, "The old man received a letter from Scholar Liu not long ago. He Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites is about to give office, and the Son of Heaven intends to let Mr. Wangxi succeed him. Zhang Boyu, the commander of the Ministry of Rites, presided over the reform of Nanjing Guozijian as a waiter of the Ministry of Rites, and achieved initial results. Presumably, the Son of Heaven will not be stingy with the position of Shangshu. ”

Jia Huan's teachers are a bunch. But when it comes to his teacher, the first reaction of outsiders is the mountain chief Zhang Anbo.

Jia Huan nodded, picked up the teacup and drank tea. The Wei family and Liu Feibai, a scholar of Wenhua Palace, had a good relationship, and he heard Wang Ziteng talk about it.

Wei Hong said again: "The dynasty has a system of history. Ziyu is helping the old man here, and when the disaster relief is over, you will be indispensable to the list of meritorious people. However, with Ziyu's age, I am afraid that he will have to wait until he enters the officialdom to talk about his merits. ”

Xiucai and other scholars help the court to do things, and the merit will be recorded, and when they enter the officialdom, they will be added according to the merit.

Jia Huan weighed it in his heart, got up and said, "The student will go back and make arrangements." ”

Wei Hong nodded. Arrange for someone to send Jia Huanhui back to He'an Street. He smiled and shook his head in the candlelight. If you don't see a rabbit, you don't scatter an eagle! This young man's heart... It's really stable.

Maybe he will really be able to go to such a high position as Yang Tinghe in the former Ming Dynasty in the future.

On the first day of August, the freshly baked Jinling briefing was distributed to all parts of Jinling City in the morning sun. Today, the circulation of the Jinling Newsletter has reached 20,000 copies. Become the overlord among dozens of newspapers in Jiangnan.

In restaurants, restaurants, teahouses, wharves, and green buildings, countless people who were reading the newspaper paid attention to Jia Huan's handwritten article published on the front page of the Jinling Bulletin, "It's not easy to eat, why is the price of grain so high? Who are the black-hearted merchants? ”

In the article, Jia Huan fiercely criticized the behavior of grain merchants who took the opportunity to raise prices. And list all the main families behind the rice shop. The citizens in Jinling City suddenly discovered that fifty percent of the good people who were cooking porridge outside the city were the owners behind the grain store. Especially in Jinling City, the Chen family has a good stroke rating. It turned out to be the main culprit in the increase in food prices.

It's a bloody mess.

"Bastard thing!" In the morning, in Chen's mansion, Chen Gaolang slapped the newspaper on the square table, "Why is such important news delivered now?" What do you eat! "Attitude is like a storm.

Chen Zizhen and Steward Liu lowered their heads, silently bearing Chen Gaolang's anger. (To be continued.) )
