To Qin Feng's surprise, Ma Xiangnan from Changyang County actually rushed over from the ground with a light car. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

"Old horse, you saw the stitches, and when you heard that Shafeng County was connected, you immediately ran over, but the Xiuyi and the rail car that came out of Changyang that you wanted, now you don't even think about it." As soon as Qin Feng opened his mouth, he blocked Ma Xiangnan's possible words, this is not because of other reasons, but Changyang is mountainous, and it is not technically difficult to pass the rail car that can transport goods or personnel, and the current technical reserves of the Railway Department do not have this ability at all, and can only accumulate little by little in the future.

"Your Majesty, look at what you said, the minister is not the kind of person who doesn't know the severity." Ma Xiangnan sighed, "Now that Haimao has eyebrows, I am not so keen on rail cars, and this time I came out to send a prince to him." ”

Ma Xiangnan's face was sad, "Speaking of which, I have been friends with the prince for many years. originally thought that his body and bones had always been good, but he didn't expect that he would fall like a mountain when he fell ill, and even Shu Chang couldn't save him. ”

Qin Feng sighed: "It's all because of me, he's old, I shouldn't have put such a burden on him alone, he was tired all the time." ”

"Who can afford this burden except for the prince?" Ma Xiangnan shook his head and said, "Your Majesty thinks it's tired, but how do you know that the prince regards this as a kind of fun in his heart!" In a hundred years of life, there will always be a day when you go, and the name of the prince should be left in the annals of history, so it is enough. ”

After listening to Qin Feng's words, Ma Xiangnan comforted Qin Feng in turn.

"Have you been to see the Maharaja?"

"I've seen it. After saying a few words to me, he fell asleep again. Shu Chang said, that is, it will be these two days, and when everything is arranged here, he will leave for Feng County. "Horse to the south.

"Old Ma, you're not too young, take it easy. I heard that you still do everything yourself, this is not good, there were not enough officials in the past, how can you be much better now, right? In addition to the Beijing Normal University Hall equipped for you, didn't you Changyang County also run your own school to cultivate talents? Even if you can't train officials, you can still train some officials, and as long as the officials have enough experience, it is natural for them to be promoted to officials. ”

The most important point of the reform of the Ming Dynasty's official administration was to accept officials as officials, and all the salaries of officials were allocated by the imperial court, and at the same time the number of officials was limited, and various assessments were forbidden in the local government in order to solve the salaries of officials.

"It's almost enough." Ma Xiangnan nodded: "It's just that I'm used to doing it before, if I don't do it, my heart will be empty, and now that everything is on track, I'm more idle, it's not as busy as before, the officials perform their duties, I'm the boss, but I can only listen to the report." ”

"You're hanging down." Qin Feng said with a smile: "It's enough to be a pro-people official to your part." Of course, this is also the result of your previous hard work, where is a county guard like you squatting, and the official below dares to be sloppy? ”

"That's right. My biggest pleasure now is the private interview with Weifu. Ma Xiangnan chuckled, "My favorite thing is to suddenly appear in front of those guys, and I am very happy to see their stunned looks." If I had caught their pigtails, it would have been quicker. ”

"They must be scolding your ancestors for eighteen generations in their hearts!" Qin Feng said with a smile.

"Which one is not scolded behind his back, and which one is not scolded behind his back! As long as you don't scold me to your face, it's fine. "The horse is very penetrating to the south.

"In that case, someone must be scolding me behind my back!" Qin Feng thought for a moment and said.

Ma Xiangnan thought solemnly for a moment, and nodded: "That's for sure." Is there anything perfect in this world? If you help a group of people, it will inevitably make others unhappy, and they will naturally scold, depending on whether you help more people or hurt more people! ”

"Well, the so-called righteous and unrighteous are more helpful, and this is what it means!"

"Indeed!"

The two of them naturally asked and answered, but Fang Dazhi, who accompanied him, was dumbfounded, and his eyes were different when he looked at Ma Xiangnan, like the question just now, he would never answer like Ma Xiangnan. If Qin Feng asked him if someone was scolding him behind his back, his answer must be that His Majesty is wise and martial, benefiting the people, and the world praises him and praises the saints, how can anyone scold?

Of course, this is a lie, but Fang Dazhi feels that he must answer like this to be decent. But looking at the two people in front of him who asked and answered, it was natural that Ma Xiangnan didn't feel anything disrespectful, and the emperor didn't feel that Ma Xiangnan was rude.

Fang Dazhi couldn't help but bow his head and ponder, it seemed that he didn't know much about His Majesty's temperament! He knows Jin Jingnan, who is arrogant and arrogant, saying that everything is like a cannon barrel, straight to the point, but he is by no means a reckless person, and he is also quite skillful in doing things. Maybe Jin Jingnan's temperament is more in line with His Majesty's temper, thinking of this, he couldn't help but ooze some cold sweat on his back, and felt some coldness.

Fang Dazhi is very proud, but he also thinks that Jin Jingnan's talent is not inferior to him, but the two people's methods of dealing with the world and governing the world are very different.

His Majesty is wise, and he will not tolerate a guy with an empty belly in a high position, but if both have talents, then why not choose the one you like more?

Or, you have to make some appropriate changes yourself. Perhaps, it's time to ask the old peasant guy in front of him for advice.

He was thinking to himself in his heart, but he didn't watch out for the emperor suddenly looking at him.

"Daji!"

Fang Dazhi, who was thinking about his thoughts, was taken aback, and hurriedly responded, the voice was so loud that even he was startled, Ma Xiangnan on the side looked at him with a look of surprise in his eyes, and Fang Dazhi was a little embarrassed.

"Go and get busy, and see how the carriage for the prince is arranged? Must be comfortable, Maharaja, I can't stand a little hardship, the prince has worked hard all his life, and we have to make sure that he can return to his old mansion alive. The Emperor said.

Fang Dazhi knew that this was the emperor who wanted to break him away from talking to Ma Xiangnan, and these things must not be known to himself.

"Yes, Your Majesty, the minister will go and supervise." In just an instant, he had already returned to normal, saluted the emperor calmly, and bowed slightly to Ma Xiangnan, and then turned to leave.

"What do you think of this man, old horse?" Qin Feng looked at his back and asked Ma Xiangnan with a smile.

Ma Xiangnan smiled: "Fang Dazhi's talent, that is not to be said, even if the foundation of this Shayang County is good, but in his hands, it is really a few steps higher, so that now Zhengyang is also pressed down, which is inferior, that is, Yuejing." It's just that his temperament is a little smoother. His Majesty is optimistic about him and is ready to use him as the prime minister? ”

"Originally, I would have consulted a few highly respected ministers on this matter." Qin Feng said lightly: "It's not just him, there is also Jin Jingnan." Compared with the two of them, who does Lao Ma think is more suitable? ”

Ma Xiangnan glanced at the emperor, "Your Majesty should have a success in his heart, right?" ”

"I have a success that is mine, but one person is poor, and everyone is long, such a major event will eventually involve the future of the Ming Dynasty, and it is good to brainstorm. Don't be foolish, I'm consulting privately, and I won't reveal your attitude. Qin Feng said with a smile.

Ma Xiangnan smiled: "Even if Your Majesty reveals it, I am not worried." In my life, I am very satisfied with thinking about getting Changyang County, Your Majesty should not think about transferring me away, where will I work for another ten years, and build a pearl in the mountains for Your Majesty. ”

Qin Feng laughed: "You answer my question first." ”

Ma Xiangnan nodded: "Jingnan is used in troubled times, and great governance is used to govern the world." That's my answer. ”

"It's the same thing that heroes see." Qin Feng said: "Then old horse, is it a troubled era or a ruling world?" ”

"There are internal troubles and external disturbances, Your Majesty will not think that the world is already peaceful, right?" Ma Xiangnan puffed out his eyes and looked at Qin Feng, but he immediately reacted: "Is there anyone else who has the same idea as Lao Ma?" ”

"Prince!" Qin Feng replied in a deep voice. "The prince said that in the first ten years, Jingnan was used to punish harsh laws, and in the next ten years, he used Dazhi to heal his wounds."

"The words of the prince are exactly what Lao Cheng said for the country." Ma Xiangnan said: "Won my heart. ”

"Say you're fat, you're panting, and I don't see you being so thick-skinned, but you're boasting!" Qin Feng said with a smile.

"It's not that the skin is thick, but it's weatherless." Ma Xiangnan pulled his dark face, which made Qin Feng can't help but think that when he first saw Ma Xiangnan, Ma Xiangnan was still a rich scholar at that time, and he had worked hard for Changyang County all these years, and he was so old.

"What's going on with the Maritime Administration?" Qin Feng asked with a different topic.

"With the 500,000 taels of silver earlier, the construction of the military port in Huludao has begun to take shape, where Zhou Lifan's Changyang and more than a dozen other warships are now berthed, Ning Zeyuan has returned to Quanzhou, count the days, I'm afraid he will come back soon, he met with me before leaving, he said that when he comes back, he will bring back the other three main warships, but that's all, because he has already brought most of the personnel and warships to Quanzhou."

"He will come back with a lot of master craftsmen in their shipyard, you have to arrange it."

"This is naturally no problem, in fact, the third dock of Baoqing Shipyard has been repaired, but no one has been stationed, as soon as they come, they can start construction immediately!" Ma Xiangnan said with a smile: "I'm waiting to make a fortune by sea trade now, how can I not be careful?" ”
