Xia Hongsheng asked the housekeeper to arrange Qi Yong's affairs, and he went out, saw the palace guard, asked a few words, and then explained to the family, and then went to Chang'an with the guard. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

When he arrived in Chang'an, it was already afternoon, and Xia Hongsheng entered the palace from the palace and entered the Ganlu Hall after being notified by the Yellow Gate.

Li Shimin was reviewing the recital inside, and when he saw Xia Hongsheng entering, after he met him, he said to Xia Hongsheng: "Letting you come over are two things." The first thing is to ask how you are doing in Jingyang, this head can be opened. The second thing is that we have to wait until tomorrow. Duan Lun recommended a skilled craftsman, saying that it was comparable to the public loss class in the world, but I was novel and tight. Nowadays, there is a shortage of these skilled craftsmen in the military aircraft workshop, if there is really a ability comparable to the public transportation class, I must rush them into the military aircraft workshop and reuse them. Therefore, I have specially summoned you to come and see together tomorrow. ”

"Son-in-law understood." Xia Hongsheng saluted and said.

Li Shimin nodded, and asked with a smile: "How do you feel about being the commander of a county?" ”

"But there are a lot of feelings." Xia Hongsheng replied: "How do you say it...... This feeling is like the feeling that the son-in-law stayed on the sea boat for more than a month, and then came down to the shore and finally stood on the ground. ”

"Oh?" Li Shimin looked at Xia Hongsheng with interest, put down the music in his hand, leaned back, and said, "Let's talk about it." ”

"It's just a down-to-earth feeling." Xia Hongsheng said to Li Shimin: "Many things need to be integrated into them in person, and after some experience, you can know the doorway." Before, the son-in-law also thought that if he was a county magistrate, how many things could a county have? How big of a deal can it be? But now that he has really made a county order, he can be regarded as truly seeing all the joys, sorrows and sorrows of the people. If you want to really know how the real people are, it seems that you have to go deep into the people. ”

"That's a good thing." Li Shimin nodded and said: "The courtiers always talk about the people, and the people are written in the song, but what the real people are like, how their lives are lived, and how the courtiers have their own thoughts. The county order is in charge of a county, and all the big and small matters must be seen, so what the people are, these people can directly contact the people, and even those who are busy with the people all day long, know best. ”

Xia Hongsheng continued: "Also, these county orders, county officials, chief secretaries, county lieutenants, and even yamen officers, these people are too important. This group of people directly determines the appearance of the imperial court in the eyes of the people, and determines the success or failure of the implementation of the decree. Although their grades are very low, their ranks are not high, and some of them don't even have the qualifications to go to the court, but their role is no less than that of the purple-robed masters. The son-in-law used to think that as long as the king was as holy as his father-in-law, and the courtiers were as capable as Fang Gong and Du Gong, then the world could be peaceful, the people could be determined, and the whole world would be clear. Now, the son-in-law has done this Jingyang County Order, only to know that the entire government, from the monarch to the people, is like a tree. The king is the one who takes care of the tree, the court is the root system of the tree, the minister is the trunk of the tree, the minister is the thick branch of the tree, and the people are the fruit of the tree. And those petty officials who can directly contact the people and work among the people are the thin branches that connect the fruit and the branches. If these trees are not strong enough, the fruit will easily fall off. If it is not smooth enough, then the nutrients drawn by the root system of the tree from the soil will not be smoothly absorbed by the fruit, and the fruit will not grow well, and it will be sour and unpalatable; If there is no inner nourishment, it will not produce fruit at all, and before the fruit can come out, it will dry up and rot first. If you want a good harvest and sweet fruits, you can't just rely on the efforts of the tree planters, not just the torso, not just the thick branches, and only the thin trees. The tree planters must work hard to take care of it, weed and fertilize, and cultivate fertile soil; The torso must be firm and straight, with strong support, and stand tall. It must also be thick and strong, connecting the upper and lower, and the wind and rain will not break. It is also necessary to be tough and smooth, so that the nutrients transmitted from the root system can be smoothly delivered to the fruit. In this way, you can harvest the sweet and delicious fruits of a tree! ”

Li Shimin listened to Xia Hongsheng's words, thought for a while, and said happily: "This analogy is good!" Governing the country requires concerted efforts so that the people can ultimately benefit. It's a pity ......"

"Yes, the importance of these grassroots officials is actually sometimes more important than that of the senior officials of the DPRK and China." Xia Hongsheng said: "This grassroots official must be ......"

"Wait, what is a grassroots official?" Li Shimin interrupted Xia Hongsheng's words and asked curiously.

"Uh......" Xia Hongsheng scratched his head, organized the language, and then explained to Li Shimin: "This, the so-called grassroots official, is the name given by the son-in-law. If the foundation is not strong or hard, the house will collapse in an instant and turn into a pile of rubble. And if the foundation is strong, the house is strong. The country is based on the people, and the people are united, then the foundation of the country is solid, and the country is solid and lasts for a long time. If the people's hearts are not united, the foundation of the country is not strong, and the country will fall. The monarch's boat is also, the people's water is also, the water is carrying the boat, and the water is overturned. This principle is the same, the son-in-law said it badly, that is, the people are the base, the country is the house, the foundation is strong, and the country is scattered. And the people are the foundation, and among the court officials, those closest to the people are like the floor under the house next to the foundation. They are the end of the power structure, because they are at the bottom of the power structure, and therefore they are also the most direct and close to the people. Therefore, the son-in-law called those county officials, county officials, chief secretaries, county party committees, and even county officials Cao, yamen officers, and even Lizheng, who were in direct contact with the people and did things directly for the people among the people, called grassroots officials. ”

Li Shimin's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he clasped his palms together and smiled: "This is a good title, so that when you hear it, you will know that you are the foundation of the imperial court, so you will have a binding heart and a vigilant heart." Very good, very nice. Talk freely with the virtuous son-in-law, and sure enough, you will get something at all times! Fang Caixian's son-in-law said that these grassroots officials must do something? Go ahead and hear it! ”

Xia Hongsheng smiled and continued: "The son-in-law said that these grassroots officials must be people with both ability and virtue before they can serve. As grassroots officials, these people are the people who have the most direct, closest, and closest contact with the people in the entire imperial court. In the eyes of the people, it can be said that the imperial court is just a high-minded illusion, those who they can see, hear, and make decisions that can immediately directly affect them, that is the imperial court. Therefore, the image of these grassroots officials in the hearts of the people is the image of the imperial court in the hearts of the people. (To be continued.) )
