Chapter 145: Three Immortals

In this life, if there is one more thing that is enough to make Xu Ping proud and feel that his life is in vain, it is that rainy night when he left Yongzhou. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info dozens of miles of mountain roads, and the continuous lanterns illuminate his way home, which is the best reward for his six years of hard work in Yongzhou. The rarest thing in the world is the human heart, and what can be compared to the human heart?

Compared with the night of departure, what quelled the rebellion and expanded the territory was not important.

If it weren't for the experience of that night, Xu Ping might not have been so careful after returning to the capital, and he had a trembling feeling in everything he did. I am afraid that if I am not careful, a mistake will cause countless sufferings to the people.

Kong Yingda said in "Spring and Autumn Left Transmission of Justice", "Virtue means to create the law and help the people", "Meritorious service is to save misfortune and eliminate difficulties, and merit is to help the time", "Virtue is to say what it wants, and reason can be passed on".

Xu Ping was in Yongzhou, quelled the rebellion of the barbarians under his rule, eliminated the hidden dangers of Guangyuan Prefecture, broke the toe, captured the enemy chieftain, and dedicated it to the king, which was considered a meritorious service. It's just a small country in Jiaozhi, and the disaster was not obvious at that time, so it was not a great achievement. Under the rule, the soil is Ding, widely edified, and changes are made outside the Central Plains, which can be regarded as virtue. It's just limited to the land of Yongzhou, although this virtue is a public virtue and not a private virtue, and its influence is still limited.

But the merits of this state and one place brought Xu Ping a sober understanding of his own life.

But foreign enemies, peaceful internal strife, in the border barbarian land, there are not many people with such merits, such as Ding Wei. Ding Wei has been on Kuizhou Road for five years, because he has done too well, no one can replace him, and the Manchu Dynasty feels sorry for him, so let him raise his own people. Ding Wei was not polite, and recommended Xue Yan, a capable official, to replace him, and after returning to Beijing, he soared to the sky. Xu Ping surpassed Ding Wei, just when he left, the people of Manchu sent each other on a rainy night. He is stronger than Ding Wei, that is, he has won the hearts of the people.

Thinking of Ding Wei, Xu Ping couldn't help but smile bitterly. What people outside say about themselves will always reach Xu Ping's ears more or less. The most talked about is that I am afraid that I will compare Xu Ping with Ding Wei.

Speaking of conscience, how can Xu Ping compare to Ding Wei? Ding Wei Chunhua was a three-year jinshi, and he was ranked fourth at the time, and he felt that he was bent and the boss was unwilling. Taizong said, A, B, C, D, isn't it appropriate for your surname Ding to rank fourth? Ding Wei thanked him aggrievedly. Awarded the official to do Dali evaluation, Raozhou was judged, and he was recruited back to the capital in more than a year and added the History Museum. In just over three years, it has been made a transfer to Fujian Road. In the fifth year of Zhongjinshi, he became a judge of the third division.

At that time, the transfer envoy did not pay attention to seniority, as long as he was looked at correctly from above, no matter how small the official was, no matter how shallow the qualifications were, he could do it. Putting this aside, Xu Ping served two terms in Yongzhou for six years and made countless meritorious contributions before he had the opportunity to return to the dynasty. The Jiazhi History Museum is still because of Li Yonghe's relationship, and the judges of the three divisions can't get rid of this reason.

Compared with Ding Wei, Xu Ping's career can be said to be bumpy. Compare yourself with Ding Wei, isn't that Ding Wei of the Han family? Ding has a bad reputation, it's very late, and he has been the prime minister for more than two years. Before this, Ding Wei has always been a representative of capable officials, and poetry is also the world's choice of time, Xu Ping can't compare to anything!

The pale yellow light sprinkled all over the room, shining on the face of Xiuxiu, who was doing needlework seriously, revealing warmth.

Xu Ping leaned on the table, looked at Xiuxiu, and thought about his thoughts.

I know my own affairs, and others have watched Xu Ping's rapid promotion in the past year, thinking that it will not be many years before he will become the third envoy, and he will enter the two governments to govern. Xu Ping himself knew that the position of the third envoy, even if it was with the word "power", was very far away from him.

The three divisions are in charge of finance, and the real determination from the system began when Kou Zhun was appointed as the envoy of the three divisions. In Xu Ping's era, the three envoys with the most outstanding achievements and the longest tenure were Ding Wei.

These two geniuses have too great an influence, born in this era, Xu Ping can only live in their shadows.

Kou Zhun is upright and willful, rigid and self-serving, competitive, vanity, good wishes, and must make people appreciate when he is gracious to others, and he is also evaluated by his best friend Zhang Yong as not learning and unskilled. Zhang Yong himself is a well-spirited and heroic character, he said that he is unlearned and unskilled, which shows the image of Kou Zhun in the eyes of people at that time. It can be said that the problems that readers think are all over Kou Zhun. Being an official is also autocratic, not only his colleagues can't stand it, but the emperor who trusts him infinitely can't stand it.

Fan Zhongyan once said of Kou Zhun, "The Son of Heaven is called the Great Loyalty in the world." "The emperor has to take care of everything, listen to himself, don't talk about others. If you are a ruler with him, you can think about what it is like to be an official.

Ding Wei is a completely different style, simply put, it is to deceive the superiors and subordinates, to be greedy for power, and to exclude dissidents. Don't look at people and be kind, there is no room for people who oppose you in the court. The key is that you are hot-hearted, and you will take away people's origins at every turn, and even put people to death, completely destroying you from the spirit to the flesh (body).

Lu Yijian is in power, and many people don't like it, but compared with these two people, he is a good man with a kind spirit.

People are young and promoted quickly, and there will definitely be people who will compare with these two people. It's bad if it's compared, and the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty don't want to be ministers in the same hall with such two people anymore. Don't look at Fan Zhongyan and the others now, when they talk about Kou Laigong, they have to praise their loyal ministers, protect the country's society, and make great contributions to the country, let them try to be officials with Kou Zhun?

Whether it is Kou Zhun or Ding Wei, the pedal before becoming the prime minister is the third envoy, which is a big mountain in front of Xu Ping.

As long as the old ministers in the court don't go, the resistance for Xu Ping to get close to the center of power is infinite, especially the position of the third envoy. The three divisions are in charge of the country's finances, have great power, and the palace has a regular schedule, and the prime minister can't hold it down when he encounters a tough one. Lu Yijian and Wang Zeng, which one is relieved to let Xu Ping sit in that seat?

Instead of thinking about the three envoys, it is better to think about the knowledge system. The knowledge system is in charge of the external system, and after a period of time, it has been transferred to the internal system of the Hanlin bachelor, and it has also reached the center of power. There are two systems of ministers, one is that the influence of the ruler is small, the authority of the emperor is large, and he does not have direct power, and others can tolerate it. But Xu Ping really can't do it, what can be done?

Xu Ping sighed secretly in his heart, as soon as he took office last year, he rebuilt the regulations of the three divisions, and now that he thinks about it, it is really a bit reckless. A few days ago, I paid attention to agricultural affairs, and I was thinking about compiling agricultural regulations, but fortunately I didn't do it.

When Ding Wei was appointed as the envoy of the three divisions, it only took a few months to go on the "New Compilation of the Three Divisions" and "Jingde Farmland Edict" respectively, so that he could not die, and what Xu Ping did collided with Ding Wei again. No wonder it has been so long, the key parts of Xu Ping have already been compiled, and the new regulations are stuck in the book and are not allowed to be officially promulgated.

The conscience of heaven and earth, Xu Ping had just returned to the capital to take office at that time, how could he pay attention to what Ding Wei did back then? By now that we've encountered resistance, it's too late to pay attention to it.

In the past two months, Xu Ping took a leave of absence due to illness and got out of official business, and only then did he really realize his current situation. As the merits of the new field affairs and shops of the three divisions slowly appeared, Xu Ping's opinions now were not as smooth as before. Intentionally or unintentionally, those people who are in charge of Xu Ping have to press Xu Ping.

Xu Ping leaned on the table and shook his head helplessly. If it weren't for this situation, why would he bother to attach the list of powerful people who intervened in it to the back of the concert for the trivial matter of the shop in the field? If it was before, I only had to settle the matter in the last concerto, who would stop it? It's not going to work now, whatever Xu Ping mentioned, some people disagreed.

This is the only way to get things done. Lu Yijian will inevitably suppress this list, turning big things into small things and small things, in exchange, Xu Ping's opinion will be helped to carry it out.

The ancients said that there are three immortals, virtue, meritorious service, and speech, and the words are the simplest, but Xu Ping chose the most difficult virtue to do. Virtue is not private morality, not relying on self-cultivation, not relying on being a good person.

The so-called virtue is born by the common people, and virtue is to have great kindness in heaven and earth, which is immortal, and is not God or holy.

Merely promoting a commodity economy and making the country rich and strong is not considered to be moral, but only meritorious. As Xu Ping thinks like this, in this process, let everyone get benefits, no matter how big or small the benefits are, in short, let ordinary people become victims of this process. If you do it, you will be virtuous and immortal.

Where is it so easy to do such a thing? In the past, Xu Ping just did it with his head stuffy and didn't think about it rationally, but now that the resistance is getting bigger and bigger, he can't help but think about it.

Putting down the letter from Liu Xin and the others, Xu Ping picked up his pen and quickly wrote the report chapter, attaching the list provided by Zheng Jian to the back. After sealing the concerto, Xu Ping said to Xiuxiu: "Xiuxiu, you keep this concerto, and ask Xu Chang to send someone to the Sansi Yamen early tomorrow morning and hand it over to Judge Liu Xin." Let Liu Xin, Guo Zheng, and Zheng Jian use the seal to play together. Also, now the seal of my deputy envoy of salt and iron is at the deputy envoy of Duzhi Wang Weizheng, and ask him to help me use the seal. ”

Xiuxiu took the chapter and put it away carefully. In the past, when she was in Yongzhou, she was used to doing these things, and Xu Ping asked him to receive many official documents and send them to the corresponding people according to the instructions.

After writing the chapter, Xu Ping only felt that he was still unsatisfied, and took out the letter from Li Jing a few days ago.

Li Ji took office in Fangcheng County, learned from Xu Ping's political measures in Yongzhou, and opened a camp to reclaim wasteland, no longer recruiting people to point out, but directly managed by the county government. He wrote to ask about some of the problems and difficulties he encountered, and at the same time talked about his own experience in the process and his own views.

Li Jing is a person who reads poetry and books, and when it comes to the study and understanding of the classics, he can count all the people who read books all over the world. Some of the problems that Xu Ping felt confused before, Li Jing can have his own opinions. (To be continued.) )
