- One hundred and ninety-five: Governance with gentleness
Wen Wan was woken up by Xia Ying.
Wenwan looked at the moon outside, which was still high in the sky, and then looked at Xia Ying, who was urging herself to get up. I fainted for a moment, what are you doing? It's not even bright yet, it's not even six o'clock, what are you doing up?
Xia Ying whispered: "Princess, the morning time is almost here." It's very late now, and the princess is still asleep. I was really tired yesterday.
Wen Wan became irritable: "Who said we need to go to court early?" She was not the emperor. The emperor has an early court, but that doesn't mean she has to have an early court too! She didn't go to bed until midnight last night, and now she has to get up at about five o'clock. She really thinks she is a cow!
Xia Ying lowered her head as low as possible: "Princess, the ministers are already waiting in the main hall." Xia Ying's subtext is, the ministers are here, why don't you, Princess, get up and let everyone wait? If you have the nerve, just keep sleeping.
Wen Wan really wants to curse.
No matter how unwilling you are, you have to be gentle. She couldn't really let all the ministers wait for her in the main hall. Although she wanted to be the hands-off shopkeeper, she shouldn't be such a hot topic. Wen Wan reluctantly put on her clothes. At this moment, she couldn't help but think of a saying: Go to bed later than a dog, get up earlier than a chicken, and work more than an ox. The emperor didn't regard her as a human being at all.
As soon as Wen Wan finished tidying up, Xia Xian brought six-color dim sum, six-color porridge, and six plates of cold dishes. These are all Wenwan's favorite foods in the past.
Wen Wan glanced sideways at Xia Xian: "Do you think that now that I have become the regent princess, my status has become noble and can be wasted?" In the past, five people together, including Ling Chang and Qi, only had this kind of dishes. Zhe). Now that she is alone, she uses the amount for five people. Pure waste.
Xia Xian smiled softly: "Princess, you eat first. If you can't eat, we will eat later." Seeing Wen Wan's displeased expression, Xia Xian smiled and said: "Princess, today is the day."
Xia Xian doesn¡¯t know why Wen Wan doesn¡¯t like to serve the leftover dishes to others. This has always been something that no one can understand (a gentle saying: eating other people¡¯s leftovers is unhygienic).
Wen Wan couldn't find fault any more: "You said it, it's just for today. There won't be another time. There's nothing to waste. If you want to eat anything, just make it yourself." Several maids around Wen Wan , such as Xia Ying and Xia Yao, their salaries are very high. You can tell Aunt Qiong directly if you want to eat anything. In the past, Xia Xian was quite busy. If she wasn't busy, she could still do it.
After Wenwan finished breakfast, she went to the main hall in the front yard. Morning morning is from 6:30 to 8:00. Wen Wan was late for morning work on her first day today.
If it is the emperor. It's probably going to be chalked up. It's a pity that this person is gentle. Wen Wan doesn't care if she is penalized once or twice! When the prince was in charge of government, he completely followed the emperor's time. Wenwan can't do it. Wen Wan wants to cancel the morning meeting. It's a pity that Wen Wan just put forward this suggestion, which was immediately opposed by all the ministers.
¡°Ahem, one vote versus forty-two votes, Wen Wan was defeated miserably.
Although Wen Wan is impatient to go to court in the morning, Wen Wan has one advantage. No matter if you like it or not. As long as she has to do something, she will do it best.
In the morning, Wen Wan listened very carefully to what the court officials reported.
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? being gentle and not hurried. He sat at the top with a very dignified face and listened to the ministers below. The attitude shown was still very satisfactory to the courtiers.
There are some government affairs that Wen Wan doesn¡¯t understand very well. It¡¯s not easy to make a hasty decision either. Wen Wan didn't say how to deal with it at the moment, she just said to leave it alone for now. In fact, I kept it in mind, thinking about letting Mi Xiang stay and asking Mi Xiang when the court was over.
Others who are well-informed immediately ask questions or respond to court officials' reports. The people below were secretly surprised by his gentle handling of government affairs. Yesterday Wen Wan listened to politics basically just listening. No reply at all. But today is completely different. He looks the same, and those who don't know think he is a veteran, but looks like a newcomer.
??Every official below knows that Princess Wenwan was with the late emperor to listen to politics. But listening to politics is one thing, and managing politics is another. After all, what you listen to is theoretical knowledge, and what you are dealing with now requires practical experience.
??What everyone doesn¡¯t know is that in the past, when the emperor encountered some difficult-to-decision government affairs, he would pass them by in a gentle manner. The two often discuss some government affairs. As time went by, I also gained some experience. In addition, Wen Wan has also been handling business. Although business is different from government affairs. But it never changes from its roots. If you can deal with it now, if you can't deal with it immediately, we can discuss it together later, and the probability of making mistakes will be smaller.
After morning breakfast, you can rest for an hour.
Wenwan was not hungry at this time, and the cat went to sleep in the house. Before going to bed, he said: "Pack out the wing in the front yard. I may not be able to go back to the backyard for a nap in the future, so I have to rest in the front yard." It takes two-quarters of an hour to walk from the front yard to the backyard. You also have to sit in a sedan chair?More than a few hours. After naps come and go like this, I have no time to sleep.
Wenwan took a nap and woke up feeling much better. At nine o'clock, we started to deal with government affairs. The morning court is the time for courtiers to discuss matters. The morning and afternoon are the time for courtiers to do business alone. Because it was delayed for a few days. There are many things that need to be reported separately outside.
Of course, not every day the courtiers have something to do. Many times the emperor could finish reviewing the memorials in the morning. But there are too many things accumulated during this period, and naturally more and more people come.
Wenwan didn¡¯t have the concept of morning court at first, so she didn¡¯t call her Lingchen either. Now that the government affairs are being handled, Ling Yang will definitely follow.
Every time a minister comes in and sees Ling Chang standing next to Wen Wan, his heart skips a beat. Wenwan doesn't need to explain much, this kind of thing can only be understood but cannot be expressed in words.
The gentle attitude also made the minister remain silent. Wen Wan was eleven years old and followed the late emperor to listen to politics. Age is not a problem, Ling Chang's identity is enough.
Mr. Liu, the Minister of War, talked about the issue of military pay and food in border towns and along the coast. Wen Wan frowned: "Why, what's the problem?" Don't tell him that there is no money for them in the treasury. If the treasury had no money, the emperor would not be able to conduct the expedition himself.
The Minister of the Ministry of War shook his head and said no. The emperor personally led the expedition and the princess controlled the capital. The Minister of the Ministry of Hubu would not dare not give the money even if he had the courage. The Minister of War has something to ask Wen Wan. The position of the quartermaster responsible for escorting grain and fodder was vacant, and the quartermaster was lost in this incident. The Minister of War came to ask Wen Wan who should be appointed as quartermaster.
Wen Wan wanted to complain, but it was okay to let her handle government affairs. Now she even has to handle military affairs, and the quartermaster also has to choose from her.
Wen Wan is not very familiar with civilian officials, and she is even less familiar with military attach¨¦s. However, the position of the quartermaster who escorted the grain and fodder was not high, but he was extremely important: "If you have a good candidate, please report it to me for a look." The person recommended by the Minister of War, Wen Wan, is just a reference. Wenwan is the one who really makes the decision.
Wen Wan dealt with it until 12 noon. At twelve o'clock, Wen Wan left the hall on time. She is going to have lunch. Meals must be on time. This is gentle maintenance. Unless someone hits the capital. Otherwise, no one can talk nonsense.
During lunch, Wen Wan complained directly to Xia Ying: "My head is buzzing. Why do you think so many people want to be emperors? What are the benefits of being an emperor? It is truly the most difficult job in the world!"
Xia Ying laughed. This is the most difficult job in the world. How many people want to do it but can't do it. However, the princess complained endlessly when she had this opportunity.
After finishing the meal, Wen Wan took a walk in the yard. Then he talked about the quartermaster: "I still know a little bit about civilian officials. But military attach¨¦s, especially those in the capital, don't know anything about them. If you have any, you can recommend some." Xia Ying is engaged in intelligence. Those who work should know more about this than she does. Maybe we can provide a few that meet the requirements.
Xia Ying smiled and said: Princess, I think Zheng Sheng is good. Zheng Sheng was also a person who had done a lot for the princess. This time we escorted the grain and grass to the border town. Also give him some credit. Let them all know that there is a good future for following the princess. "Zheng Sheng is a good candidate. Zheng Sheng's official position is not high, only sixth grade. But he is enough as a quartermaster. Xia Ying did this to set up a good image for Wen Wan. After all, the people below are working hard for you, who is not? For the sake of future, for fame and fortune.
Nodding gently. Zheng Sheng had been guarding her mansion for more than four months. Wen Wan knew that he was a good young man. Wen Wan was still thinking of bringing him to the princess's mansion and making him the leader of the guard! However, if it can give Zheng Sheng a future, he will naturally not delay it, and Wen Wan immediately nodded in agreement.
Zheng Sheng was announced back by Wen Wan. I thought there was something wrong with my errand. You must know that Wen Wan's status now is different from before. The noble princess and the regent princess look like they are both princesses, but their status is very different.
Wen Wan said that she wanted him to escort the grain and grass to the border town: "The war has not started yet. I estimate that the war will be in late September or October. If you are lucky, you can catch up with the war. Even if not, you can catch up with the ending. War. When the time comes, I can do some military service so that I can speak for you." This time, Zheng Sheng was promoted to a higher level. Once you get to the border town, as long as you can make military exploits, you are absolutely guaranteed to be promoted to a level. If you're lucky, it's no problem to level up two levels.
Seeing that Zheng Sheng was silent, Wen Wan smiled and said, "There is definitely danger in fighting. But when you go to the border town, there will definitely be no fierce fighting. Just be careful and you'll be fine."
Zheng Sheng is unwilling. He was overjoyed. After coming back to his senses, he immediately kowtowed: "Thank you, Princess, for your grace." If it weren't for Wen Wan's attention, the task of escorting the army rations would not have been in his hands. It is a credit to the general that he needs to be escorted to the border town smoothly. Once he arrives at the border town, he can make more military exploits, and by then he will be promoted to at least two levels.
Wen Wan laughed: "This is to fight, not to ask you to travelSightseeing, what's there to be thankful for? You report to the Ministry of War first. Hurry up and get started, we'll probably be setting off within two or three days. "
Zheng Sheng thanked him and left. As soon as Zheng Sheng walked out of the door, Xia Xiang outside said, Mr. Yushi Guozhu asked to see him.
Wen Wan frowned: "I don't have time to see him. If something happens, just leave the note." Wen Wan didn't want to hear Han Guozhu chirping.
Wenwan read the Korean column¡¯s booklet. He handed the folder to Xia Ying and said, "Han Guo Zhu said that people are being arrested everywhere in the capital. It makes people panic. They are afraid of causing turmoil in the court. What do you think?" Others are afraid that this kind of thing will contaminate their bodies, but Han Guo Zhu is not afraid. .
Xia Ying shook her head: "Princess, I will tell Mr. Li." Xia Ying didn't have much confidence whether Li Yi would listen to her.
Wen Wan let go after hearing this.
One afternoon, people in Wenwan¡¯s study were coming in and out without stopping for a moment. At this time, Wen Wan deeply understood what it meant to have no time to drink tea. She really didn't have the time to drink tea. One goes out and one comes in. A lot of things. Ask her everything.
If we say that yesterday¡¯s action was too fast, many people did not get the news. Today, everyone in the streets and alleys of the capital knows that not only is the emperor not dead, Princess Wenwan has now received the imperial decree and become the regent princess, and the princess's palace has also been turned into a temporary court.
It is actually a coincidence that Wen Wan could take over the government so smoothly without hearing any objections.
First of all, Wen Wan saved so many ministers yesterday. Although it was a mistake, it was a life-saving grace after all. You can't save your life from the front, only to hold on to it from the back.
Secondly, several adult princes have had problems one after another. The prince is not awake now. The second and fifth princes are all dead. Let¡¯s not talk about the Sixth Prince. None of the princes below have risen to prominence, and Wen Wan is the most suitable candidate in terms of ability and reputation.
Sanlai Wenwan is not only capable in terms of prestige and ability, she is enough to take on this important task. Wen Wan, the regent princess, is an imperial edict issued by the emperor himself. No one dared to doubt it.
??Three reasons combined, naturally everyone has no objection. The courtiers above the court because of gentle life-saving grace. Naturally, half of the word "not" is missing. Wenwan can also manage things so smoothly. If it were not a coincidence, Wen Wan could take over the political affairs, but it would not be so smooth. A group of people must have died, eh. Diehards must die.
Mrs. Miao was shocked when she heard that Wen Wan had become the regent princess. When he came back to his senses, he immediately gave instructions to everyone to shut their mouths and not to spread this matter to the ears of the master. Although Mrs. Miao regrets it, if she had not severed the relationship and had such a good opportunity, her husband would definitely have prospered. But no matter how regretful it is that this happened.
Miao wanted to hide this kind of thing, but she simply couldn't. Miao's youngest son didn't know what was going on. When he was accompanying Ping Xiangxi, he accidentally told what he had seen outside.
Ping Xiangxi was stunned when he heard his grandson say that Wen Wan had become the regent princess. His daughter actually became the regent princess. The regent princess is equivalent to the emperor until the emperor returns to the capital. The real one is the person who stands above tens of millions of people and can turn his hands into clouds and rain.
Mrs. Miao knew her son was in trouble and immediately went to see Ping Xiangxi. Ping Xiangxi looked very calm. It seems like nothing happened. Miao tried to persuade her a few times, but it was of no use at all. I felt uneasy at the moment and waited until Shang Qi came back.
When Ping Xiangxi saw Shang Qi, the first thing he asked was: "Wen Wan has become the regent princess?" He couldn't believe it was true. I thought it was a dream! The daughter became the regent princess and had supreme power. All people must prostrate themselves at its feet.
Ping Shangqi nodded carefully. I thought his father would say something else, but I didn't expect Ping Xiangxi to ask immediately: "Then the news that Mingrui and Mingjin were murdered is false, do you think so?"
Shang Qi nodded: "It must be a lie. Wen Wan, a cautious person, cannot easily harm Mingrui and Mingjin. And if something happens to the two children, Wen Wan cannot stay in the capital with peace of mind. ." Shang Qi's guess. Wen Wan did this to paralyze the enemy. Let the enemy think that she is really too sad. Thus relaxing your vigilance.
Ping Xiangxi breathed a sigh of relief after hearing these words: "As long as the two children are okay, it's okay. Come on. Help me up, and I'll go and offer incense to your mother." The mother Ping Xiangxi was talking about, naturally It refers to the gentle mother-in-law, Princess Fuhui.
Ping offered incense to Xi and murmured to the tablet for a long time.
Shang Qi felt as if he had been cut by a knife. As soon as his father heard that something happened to his two children, Mingrui and Mingjin, he fell ill. He also kept hearing news, but it was all bad news. Fortunately, both children are fine. Compared to my father, I no longer have to worry about this matter.
Shang Qi actually wanted to see Wen Wan in the past two years, so he told her??Wan, Dad regrets it. Dad has been regretting it all these years. It's a pity that he can't see Wenwan. Even if he saw Wen Wan, he didn't have the courage to say these words. So he could only watch his father live with guilt and regret every day.
¡° Not to mention Wen Wan, I don¡¯t know that Ping Xiangxi regretted it, and even if she knew it, she wouldn¡¯t take it to heart. She had never regarded Ping Xiangxi as her father, she had always regarded him as a burden. Over the years, she has done so many things and endured hardships just because she didn't want to be criticized. Now that she finally got rid of him, she would be stupid to forgive Ping Xiangxi again.
Wen Wan had too many things to do during the day, and Wen Wan had no time to deal with the memorial. Therefore, the memorial could only be reviewed in the evening.
Wen Wan read the memorial. It was okay at first, but after seeing it, she couldn't bear it anymore and threw the memorial heavily on the desk.
The three maids waiting around were all startled. Xia Ying quickly asked: "Princess, what happened?" It's not a big deal, and Wen Wan wouldn't be so angry!
Lingcheng has been staying by Wenwan's side all day, listening to politics during the day, and Wenwan also lets him read the memorial at night. The work and rest time are basically in line with Wenwan.
Wen Wan couldn't bear it anymore: "Look, what's written here, it's just a waste of my time." Wen Wan didn't find fault with the small words, but there was no punctuation in the whole article, and Wen Wan had to let Wen Wan It will definitely waste a lot of time if you bother to pause.
Wen Wan could tolerate the lack of punctuation for the time being, but what made Wen Wan intolerable was that these people liked to talk at length. Things that can be explained clearly in a few hundred words, they have to write thousands or even 10,000 words at night. The words are gorgeous. Citing scriptures. The nonsense she talked about made her look like she was one head and two heads above her. Damn, I thought this was making a fuss.
A memorial should only take five minutes to complete, but when these officials wrote it, it would take her at least fifteen minutes to read it. The wrinkles that could have been taken care of in two hours could not be completed even after working overtime. Unless Wenwan doesn't sleep. Be prepared to stay up all night. What Wen Wan hates most is working all night long. When I was a department manager, no matter how busy I was, Wen Wan never squeezed my employees and made them work all night long. Wen Wan felt that she didn't have enough energy. Strong pressure will be counterproductive.
Wenwan felt really depressed looking at the stack of memorials. When she served the emperor's grandfather, she knew that the courtiers had this problem. But at that time, she was just a soy sauce person, and the emperor's grandfather didn't show her many memorials. She only read a dozen or twenty in a day, so it didn't take much effort. But things are different now. I have to read hundreds of memorials a day and am almost exhausted during the day. She had to work overtime at night, and reading these nonsense memorials was a waste of her time.
This is actually a habit. Like the emperor, they were already used to it, so naturally they didn't think anything of it. But Wen Wan is not used to it. What Wen Wan wants is efficiency. Things that can be done in one minute must not be delayed to five minutes.
Because of the habits of courtiers, they had to do six hours or more for something that could be done in two hours. This gentleness is intolerable.
Wen Wan will not accommodate the ministers and make herself work overtime and exhaust herself. The emperor has no problem, but she won't do it. If she has no say. As usual, she naturally remained silent. Anyway, she was not the one who suffered. Now that things are weighing on her, she has to do as she says. Now she is the eldest, and she will kidnap anyone who doesn't listen.
"Civil officials are no better than military generals. Wenwan wants reform. These civil servants will definitely start a war of words, and their pens may be as sharp as swords. What's more, ancestral family laws must be used to restrict threats.
These emperors may be afraid, because the emperor wants to be a wise king and does not want to leave a stain. Don¡¯t be afraid of being gentle. She only took over for a few months anyway. I didn't do this for a long time. As long as the government affairs are handled, there will be no problem. Others like to say whatever they want. He made her angry and took off her hat. Out of sight, out of sight, out of ear hearing, the mind is still. It means that the courtiers are full of complaints and are waiting for the emperor's uncle to report them to the emperor's uncle when he comes back.
Xia Xiang came over and slapped Wen Wan on the shoulder. After Wen Wan calmed down, she reluctantly picked up another book and read it. After reading less than half of it, she really wanted to throw the book out: "These snarky scholars don't have to be exhausted." Wen Wan would rather read the generals' stories. Speaking in the vernacular, I don¡¯t want to read these gorgeous memorials from civil servants. It's all just to make trouble.
After saying that, he saw Ling Chang blinking at him and touched Ling Chang's head with a smile. He gave a memorial to Ling Chang and said, "After reading it, tell your aunt what this memorial is about?" It was not appropriate to show it to Xia Xiang, Xia Ying and the others. But to Lingchen, Wenwan said there was no pressure.
Lingchen was stunned: ¡°Auntie, this is not very appropriate¡±
Wen Wan laughed: "I just want you to see it, not to deal with it. Is there anything wrong? From now on, listen to them during the day and read the memorial at night. If you don't understand, save it and I will explain it to you when I have time."
????????????????????????????????????He nodded: "Okay." He then picked up the basic memorial that Wen Wan handed him and looked at it seriously. After reading all the memorials given by Wen Wan, when Wen Wan was free, he explained the meaning of each memorial to Wen Wan.
Wen Wan took it and browsed it quickly: "Well, it's very good. You can slowly figure out how you should handle it if it is handed over to you. After your aunt has reviewed it, you can read it again. Compare it. If there is something inappropriate about it, You can bring it up too."
Wen Wan has given Lingcheng concrete practical experience. Ling Chang naturally cherished it very much. Such an opportunity is truly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Wen Wan finished reviewing a memorial. Not only must it be stamped with a jade seal, but it must also be stamped with your own personal seal. This was added deliberately by Wen Wan as a precaution.
Wen Wan was busy until 2:00 p.m., and there were still more than half of the memorials in the room. Wen Wan looked at Ling Chang, who was still reading the memorial: "Ling Chang, go back to bed. Children can't stay up late." Wen Wan planned to watch it for another hour before going to bed. She was determined not to stay up late. Children should not stay up late, and women should not stay up late. Staying up late is very harmful to the body.
Lingcheng originally wanted to say that she could wait for her aunt and uncle to come together. But looking at Wen Wan's unquestionable look, he immediately stood up, bowed to Wen Wan and then went back to sleep. After experiencing this incident, Ling Chang knew very well that he could not disobey his aunt.
Wenwan ate a late-night snack, rested for a while, and continued to work hard until midnight (one o'clock in the morning). Wen Wan couldn't hold it any longer and didn't even bother to go back to the backyard, so she slept in the wing room that Xia Xiang had tidied up.
Xia Xiang looked at Wen Wan¡¯s tired expression, took some incense and lit it in the room. This incense would help her sleep. Xia Xiang said softly: "Sister Xia Ying, the princess is so tired and worked so hard before. I'm worried that the princess's body can't bear it." She lost a lot of weight after working for such a long time. If you have to work around all day with no time, it's easy to get sick.
Xia Ying said nothing. From the bottom of her heart, she didn't want Wen Wan to be so tired, but she had no choice. This was what Wen Wan had to do, and no one else could share it with her.
Xia Xiang also knew this, and she had a purpose in saying this: "Sister Xia Ying, you also know the temperament of the princess. She is used to using people like us. But the current situation of the princess, we are also busy. But come here. Sister Xia Ying, can you find a few people to come over so that we can take care of the princess wholeheartedly?"
Xia Ying nodded. She stayed with the princess today because she was afraid of something happening and was uneasy. In fact, there are still a lot of things outside that she needs to deal with. Xia Xiang was taking care of the princess, but Wen Wan also told her to take care of Ling Chang's daily life and food. It was better for Xia Xian to have Aunt Qiong to help her before, but now that Aunt Qiong is not around, she has to take care of Wen Wan's food. Lack of skills. They had managed to make do before, but now there were so many people coming and going that the three of them couldn't handle it.
Xia Ying thought for a while and then said: "The mansion has also trained a group of people. You and Xia Xian will select a few of them. Then they will serve tea and water to the courtiers. I will select a few more from the secret guards." The one who can do it will serve the princess personally. "Wen Wan is a woman, so she must choose a woman to serve her.
Xia Xiang then nodded: "When the people arrive, I will wait beside the princess."
Xia Ying nodded: "This is natural. With you here, I feel relieved."
Back then, Wen Wan was almost poisoned by flower poison, so the late emperor gave Xia Xiang to Wen Wan. Xia Xiang is not only good at spices, but also at poisons. With her by her side, outsiders have no chance to make a move. Xia Xian is in charge of the food aspect to ensure Wen Wan's safety to the greatest extent possible. It was also because of them that Wen Wan was able to live peacefully for so many years. - Didn't finish reading?
