The list of officials that needed to be read out in the court was very long, and Zhang Yuanji looked at Zhao Ran who was in a wheelchair, quite impatient. Zhao Ran smiled apologetically, and then continued to sit down, listening to one name after another.

Ying Tianfu Yin Wang Zongyi is among them, because of his firm position in this great change in Beijing, as well as the various supports and cooperation made in the recovery of Beijing, Zhao Ran originally wanted him to go to a certain political envoy in other provinces to serve as a political envoy, so as to embark on the right path of taking charge of the six departments, but Wang Zongyi did not think so, he hoped that he could continue to stay in Yingtianfu Yin and continue to do things for the people under the leadership of Abbot Zhao of Wenchangguan.

Of course, if Abbot Zhao was willing to give him some recognition for some of his past contributions, he wouldn't mind seeking the title of a minister of the East Palace, and he would raise the rank first. So, in today's edict of the Great Seal of Hundred Officials, Wang Zongyi got the title of a prince's guest, and was upgraded from the third grade to the third grade, which is a key step.

Liang Youhe also made the same choice, and he begged Zhao Ran to let him work in Shangyuan County for another two years, even if he was not promoted, he could accept it. Liang Youhe was busy in June, and played a good role in series, Zhao Ran certainly did not chill the heart of the hero, while satisfying his wishes, he also gave him a part-time job that should be judged by Tianfu, and promoted him from the sixth product to the fifth product.

In the long edict, Zhao Ran heard the name of Yang Shen, and was transferred from the five-grade scholar of the Hanlin Academy to Beizhili, and served as the prefect of Beiping Prefecture, from the third grade. When there is a prince sitting in the north of Zhili, he is responsible to the prince, and when there is no prince guarding the town, he is directly responsible to the six ministries.

Beiping Mansion is known as the first capital of Beidi, and serving as the prefect of Beiping Prefecture has a leading demonstration effect and great influence on Beizhili and even the entire state capitals of Beidi. Letting Yang Shen take up this position is not only a matter of promoting the Hanlin Academy to the third level, but also the intention of cultivating and reusing him.

Zhao Ran heard Shi Weiming's name again, and Shi Weiming's promotion was ranked behind, and he was promoted by the director of the Zhejiang Qing Officials Division of the Zhengliupin Household Department to the Zhengwupin Treasure Banknote Division. The official is promoted by two levels, but the authority is much worse, the treasure money division is the direct jurisdiction of the household department, and the Guangying warehouse, the military storage warehouse and so on, in the level is equivalent to the household department of the thirteen Qing officials, but it certainly cannot be compared.

At the beginning of the dynasty, the treasure money division still had some power, but unfortunately it soon fell into the point of indiscriminate distribution, and it fell in just a dozen years, and now after six hundred years, there is almost only an empty shell left, which is used to place redundant officials, and it is difficult to see the shadow of treasure money in the market.

Shi Weiming's grade was not enough, standing outside the Fengtian Palace, Zhao Ran couldn't see him, but he thought he was muttering.

After Shi Weiming, Zhao Ran heard another one, it was the old acquaintance Zhang Juzheng, who jumped from the main book of Zhan Shifu to the right Chunfang right Zhongyun, and jumped three levels from the seventh grade to the sixth grade.

The new emperor was newly established, there was no prince for the time being, and it was expected that for a period of time, the vassals of the East Palace would have nothing to do. Therefore, Zhang Juzheng added a post to the back, and he was also the secretary of the country.

Guozijian Siye is an official position of the sixth grade, although the grade is not high, the weight is not small, and he is one of the deputies of the Guozijian sacrificial wine. This is the point of Zhao Ran's efforts to bring the official school and the imperial examination back to the right track of Daomen, whether it can be done well depends on Zhang Juzheng's ability.

Among the civil officials' rewards, the last one was Zhang Xuan, the eunuch of the country, who was promoted to the household department, which was a low-grade but very prominent position, outside Zhao Ran's sight, this eight-grade minister who was ranked under the royal road of Fengtian Temple suddenly trembled with excitement, and shouted long live in his mouth, but in his heart he was talking about Abbot Zhao's longevity.

Zhao Ran despised Zhang Xuan's conduct, but he would not stop him from rewarding his meritorious deeds, one yard is one yard, and he will be rewarded for his merits, which is his principle of doing things. Zhang Xuan jumped out in the Fengtian Temple that day to solve the problem for Zhao Ran, no matter what his intentions were, Zhao Ran must establish such a concept: Support me, I will give you meat to eat.

After that, there is the reward of the generals, and the first one is Zhang Luo......

Naturally, it is impossible for all of them to be placed in the edict, and the promotion below the seventh grade will be reported to the cabinet by the Ministry of Officials, and the edict will be over.

In addition, the emperor also granted amnesty to the whole world in accordance with the rules, released prisoners who had committed less serious crimes, and asked the provincial procuratorate to immediately draft a list of pardoned persons and report it to the criminal department for approval.

After the emperor's enthronement ceremony, Zhang Yuanji seemed to want to say something more to Zhao Ran, but in the end he didn't say it again, Zhao Ran was also relieved, Zhang Yuanji's request Zhao Ran couldn't agree, and it was difficult to complete it if he agreed, so it was best not to mention it.

Zhang Yuanji left quickly, walking neatly and neatly, without the slightest drag, Zhao Ran's farewell dragged on, and after the emperor sent a hundred officials, a large number of people surrounded outside Chengtianmen to hand over the name post and send invitations, but Zhao Ran declined.

He is not in good health now, and he is still in a wheelchair, so where can he have time to go to the banquet and socialize.

Su Chuanyao pushed Zhao Ran into the donkey cart, Gu Tengjia also got into the carriage, and the two carts went to Qixia Mountain one after the other, and after arriving at Wenchangguan, the appointment document confirming that Zhao Ran was the abbot of Wenchangguan finally arrived.

Holding this official document in his hand, Zhao Ran returned to the abbot's courtyard, excited heart, trembling hands, absorbed the appointment document into the sea of qi, this time, he got the eighth chapter of the "Innate Merit Sutra", the practice of refining the virtual realm.

After looking at it for a while, he didn't understand much, so Zhao Ran didn't study it further, his divine consciousness has not yet given birth to a baby, and he is not a refiner, what kind of refining is it to talk about? Just go down step by step.

Gu Tengjia personally brought the squatter patrol to deliver the meal, and accompanied Zhao Ran and Su Chuan to have dinner, and while eating, he answered Zhao Ran's questions. Especially on the issue of money and things, Gu Tengjia gave a detailed explanation.

In a prosperous place, Wenchangguan's annual net income is only 200,000 taels, which is greatly unexpected by Zhao Ran. After carefully checking the accounts for three years, Zhao Ran found that Wenchangguan's ability to make money is not weak, in addition to the annual incense money and the resources paid by the provincial palaces, there are also a lot of Taoist properties in a steady stream of income.

In the past three years, the total annual income of Wenchangguan is equivalent to about 3 million taels of silver, according to the rules, seventy percent is handed over to Zongguan, the remaining 900,000 taels, seventy percent - that is, more than 600,000 subsidies to Maoshan, that is, Yuanfu Wanning Pavilion, and the remaining 300,000 yuan is used for preaching affairs and basic expenses.

With 300,000 taels of silver per Chinese New Year's Eve, Wenchangguan is a very rich Taoist temple, and as far as Zhao Ran knows, the available funds of Xuanyuanguan in Sichuan Province are only 100,000 taels per year, and Wenchangguan is three times that of Xuanyuanguan. But the problem is that Zhao Ran found an expenditure of "special evangelistic expenses" in the accounts, which was 100,000 taels every year for three consecutive years. The expenditure of this silver shrank Wenchangguan's income to 200,000, and the room for maneuver was greatly reduced.

Regarding this question, Gu Tengjia smiled bitterly: "Not only three years, it has always been like this, but it has increased greatly in the past twenty years. ”

"Twenty years, 100,000 taels a year?"

"Before the ninth year of Jiajing, it was 30,000 taels per year, since the 13th year of Jiajing, 50,000 taels per year, and since the 19th year of Jiajing, it has been 100,000 taels per year. ”

Zhao Ran gasped, after calculating this, the total amount of this special sermon fee has reached 1.4 million taels!
