"Not bad!" Li Shimin nodded heavily and said, "That's a good point!" Ordinary people, how do they know about the imperial court? Have they ever seen me, or have they ever seen the ministers of the DPRK and China? If I am dressed in small clothes, even if I stand in front of him, he will not know that it is me. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info For them, the group of people in the county government is the imperial court. What they do is the business of the court, and what they say is the word of the court. Their every move, every word and word, represents the imperial court. If it is honest and honest for the people, then the people will regard the court as the people. If his government is harsh and cool, the people will think that the court is like this. ”

It is precisely because of this that the son-in-law thinks that these grassroots officials represent the imperial court. What they look like in the eyes of the people, then what the court looks like in the eyes of the people. Therefore, these grassroots officials must have a good image and win the hearts of the people! Xia Hongsheng nodded and said: "The ability of these grassroots officials to govern the people directly affects the people's trust and loyalty to the imperial court. If they can govern properly, bring benefits to the local people, and make the local people live and work in peace and contentment, then the people will not only support him, but also the court they represent. However, if these grassroots officials act recklessly when governing the people, and the measures they formulate not only do not seek benefits for the local people, but harm the interests of the local people, then they will inevitably suffer opposition, and also seriously damage the prestige and reputation of the imperial court in the eyes of the local people. ”

"yes!" Li Shimin laughed and said, "Hahahaha, the virtuous son-in-law can really be described as my wise brain. Whenever I talk to a virtuous son-in-law, I can always get something very beneficial from it. All right! Haha, as my son-in-law, you should always come to me to talk. It seems that letting the virtuous son-in-law do the Jingyang County Decree is doing the benefits again! Let's talk about it again, but what else do you think? ”

"Yes, son-in-law obeys!" Xia Hongsheng saluted, and then said: "Since the junior son-in-law has been the Jingyang County Commander for a while, in addition to feeling that these grassroots officials are very important, so the people selected by these grassroots officials must be very strict, and those who are not virtuous and capable cannot be used, but also feel that for the ministers of the court, this kind of experience of doing things at the grassroots level is also very necessary. ”

"Let's hear it!" Li Shimin raised his hand and beckoned, asked Wang De to pour the tea in the cup, replaced it with hot water, and then said.

Xia Hongsheng raised his hand to thank him, picked up the water cup and took a sip of hot tea, and continued: "Father-in-law, among the hundreds of civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty now, how many of them have been promoted from the county order and the county prince?" ”

"This ......" Li Shimin thought for a moment and said: "The judges of the state government, as well as the county bookkeepers and lieutenants, although their positions are not high, they are generally Jinshi and the later officials. If you have to be recommended, and there is a clear certificate of the state and county, you may be able to enter the court as a Lang official and imperial history. Today's Dynasties...... Most of the ministers of the three provinces have been officials in such places. However, there are indeed few who have been parents in a place. ”

"Yes, father-in-law!" Xia Hongsheng drank a cup of hot tea and said: "Minister of the DPRK and China, even if he has experience in doing things in the local area, he is only at the state level. I rarely made a prefectural ordinance or anything like that. Fang Cai's son-in-law said that the grassroots personnel in these county offices are the people who have the closest and most direct contact with the people. What they saw, heard, and experienced were all things that really happened to the people, and what they heard was also true and true words that came out of the mouths of the people. Father-in-law, do you think that these county officials know the people better than those grassroots people, or do the ministers of the DPRK and China understand the people better? ”

"What **** hears and sees all the time, it is natural that those grassroots people are closer to the people and understand the people." Li Shimin said.

Xia Hongsheng nodded, looked left and right, raised his hand and pointed at Wang De, and said: "Then father-in-law, if you let the royal chamberlain and Ashina Simo go to the imperial horse to supervise the horses, dare to ask whether the horses raised by the king's chamberlain are good, or the horses raised by General Ashina Simo are good?" ”

Li Shimin laughed and turned his head to look at Wang De.

Wang De hurriedly bowed and saluted, and said, "Ouch! Master Hou, you are really joking, how do slaves and maids know how to raise horses? Teach slaves and maids to raise horses, I am afraid that I will feed the sick and sick horses that are good for life, but they are never as good as General Ashinasimo's! The general is a Turkic on the steppe, dealing with cattle, sheep and horses all day long, even if the slave and maid ride a horse, they are not very stable, how can they compare with the general? ”

Li Shimin also nodded and said: "Wang De serves me, and there is no one in the palace among the inner servants, but when it comes to raising horses, I am afraid that compared to the Turkic people who have raised horses and rode horses since childhood, they are far wrong!" ”

"That's right!" Xia Hongsheng said to Li Shimin: "General Ashina Simo can raise horses well, because as a Turkic, he has raised war horses on the grassland before, so he knows the temperament of horses, so he can herd horses well. So if the ministers of the DPRK and China are compared to raising horses, then does Your Majesty think that the measures set by those who have been among the people, have seen the real life of the people, and have seen the real people are more beneficial to the people, or are those who have never seen how the real people are and have not heard the words of the people to the people? ”

After speaking, Xia Hongsheng looked at Li Shimin. The smile on Li Shimin's face gradually retracted, his face became much more solemn, and he said in a deep voice: "Naturally, those who have personally contacted the people and know the people and civil affairs very well, and the measures they have set are more beneficial to the people. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty, if Emperor Jin Hui had been in contact with the people at the beginning, or if the ministers around him had personal contact with the people, would he still be able to say the kind of 'why not eat minced meat'?" Xia Hongsheng also said in a deep voice.

Li Shimin suddenly fell silent and stopped talking.

Xia Hongsheng sat opposite, waiting for Li Shimin to ponder.

After a long time, I suddenly heard Li Shimin slowly exhale a long breath, and said to Xia Hongsheng: "The words of the virtuous son-in-law suddenly made me feel a chill in my heart!" I remembered that I had asked the right son-in-law at the beginning, and I heard the son-in-law talk about the change of dynasty. It is said that after the founding of the country, the monarch often grew up in the deep palace since he was a child, pampered and pampered, did not eat the fireworks of the world, and did not see the people's livelihood and suffering, and all the means he could or could have information from the outside world could only be heard, not seen. In this way, the people are just a concept in their minds, a term that must be spoken, but not a real existence. All of his life experiences are confined to this deep palace, which is why there is such a joke of 'why not eat minced meat'...... Virtuous son-in-law, you have always had a good plan, but there is a way to solve this matter?! (To be continued.) )
