    Yi Ding 326, Yi Ding Volume 3 The Dragon Gate is Thousand Feet High Chapter 326 News

    April. Jinling

    At this time, the spring is warm and the flowers are blooming, the coldness has completely disappeared, it is warm, the banks are colorful, the bustling people are constantly coming and going, and there is no trace of the troubled times.  []

    There is an endless stream of merchant boats and painted boats on the river.

    The painting is generally a wooden double -layer large ship. Each floor can be placed with ten large dining tables. The beauty is like a cloud.

    A painting boat with a semi-circular arcade on the deck. Standing on the deck, you can see the vast sky and the calm and gentle river. The scenery is extremely beautiful. At this time, preparations are being made to welcome distinguished guests.

    The kitchen was preparing food and wine, the maids and servants were cleaning, and a middle-aged man with some decent clothes stood looking around.

    ? It can be seen that the guests using the boat this time are unusual. This middle-aged man walked around the boat and found many faults.

    "Has the food been prepared? Have the ingredients been checked? Are they not fresh? Have the fresh fruits been purchased? Has the fruit wine been brought on board?

    "Tonight's cruise ship is full of nobles. If something goes wrong, you and I can't escape. I've asked you to clean it up a while ago, but you're still so rash in doing things! There's still dust on that railing. Didn't you guys see it?  ?¡±

    "Go, go, stop making excuses in front of the manager, why don't you go and clean it up? There is also a case, I mentioned it a few days ago, right? This case is too small, and it is not of the highest quality.  The wood, why don't you quickly remove it and replace it with the newly imported fragrant wood table!"

    "Tsk tsk, haven't you guys seen it? The calligraphy and paintings on the wall are too mediocre to be worthy of today's distinguished guests. Why don't you take out some of the top-quality calligraphy and paintings from the library Well, just hang up this picture of a lady, at night  Cruise ship, this kind of calligraphy and painting is very suitable for the occasionare you all ready?"

    "Steward, everything is almost ready here. Please come over and check it out!" The person who was named spoke carefully.

    The master¡¯s family and several stewards.  They are all bosses who don't rub their eyes against the sand. If they make them unhappy, they are afraid that this job will be lost. Although the world is peaceful now, it is not difficult to find a job, but there are very few jobs that can pay more than this job.  .

    The person who responded was responsible for a corner on the east side of the boat.

    The middle-aged steward was a little uneasy. He walked over and stood there for a while and looked at it carefully. It was really well arranged here.  The floor and corners are very clean.

    The middle-aged steward nodded: "It's not bad, but you can't let anyone dirty the ground before dark. If you make the nobles angry, the master will definitely not let you and me go easy."

    "Young ones have all remembered it" The servant in charge thought secretly in his heart after a busy day.

    You must know that making a living by painting a boat is not something ordinary people can do. There is a backstage, and the women chosen are all beautiful and smart, and can accompany high-end guests.

    I have seen many rich people, even high-ranking officials.  It is also a common thing. What kind of noble person is coming today to make his master treat him with such care?

    Seeing everyone¡¯s doubts, the middle-aged steward said calmly: ¡°Why are we asking these questions? Just remember that today¡¯s guests are distinguished guests and don¡¯t be rude.¡±

    "I understand, little one." Everyone agreed.

    The middle-aged steward softened his expression and gave a few words of caution.  Continue to check.

    Evening came quickly.

    When Zhao Yuanjing left the Yamen, it was raining spring rain. The coachman came up to help him get into the car. He smiled and said, "Master, please take your seat. Are you going back home?"

    Zhao Yuanjing was startled for a moment, thinking that he was about to leave Jinling. He let out a long sigh of regret, went up and sat down, and said, "Go to River Pier No. 7!"

    "Yes, sir!" With a few shouts, the carriage pulled by two horses moved forward, closely followed by two guards, about twenty or so, with expressionless faces.  He had a sword on him, and he just followed on horseback.

    According to the imperial system, people with titles.  But there are openly soldiers, and the specific number is stipulated.

    But officials also have "defences."  According to the imperial system, there were one hundred prime ministers.  The second prime minister is eighty, and by analogy, the seventh-grade official has two "defenses", which are actually guards.

    The driver is a man in his thirties, and his clothes suggest that he is a servant of the mansion. He holds a whip in his hand and drives the carriage carefully. There are many passers-by walking on this road. If you are not careful, your horse may trample pedestrians. This is not the troubled times of the past.  , if a horse hurts someone here, even if the horse owner is an official, he will be sued.

    Therefore, the horse-drawn carriage was actually not moving very fast, and the rain was not heavy. The drizzle hit the oilcloth intermittently, and at a glance, we could see that the streets were full of pedestrians, even if it rained, there were not many of them.????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????Outside of the street, merchants are busy with business, and people are neatly dressed. In the evening, merchants and shops have put up lanterns, and every busy commercial street has a different beauty.

    Due to the end of the war, Jinling restored the ten o'clock curfew system. Zhao Yuanjing secretly sighed that Jinling had only enjoyed a healthy city for a few years, and by this time it had already fully restored its bustling and bustling pattern.

    ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????¡­

    Soon the carriage passed by, the curtains were lowered, and Zhao Yuanjing sat back in the carriage with a thoughtful look on his face.

    "What are your plans, Your Majesty? He built another martial arts hall" He murmured to himself thoughtfully.

    The word "Martial Arts Hall" is both unfamiliar and familiar to Zhao Yuanjing.

    ¡°We say familiar because the word is not unheard of. There were similar institutions in the previous dynasty. We say strange because although the name is the same, the connotation is completely different.

    Created by the emperor himself, it gradually formed a system and became a set of institutions with the same nature as the imperial examination, but for military personnel.

    Even though it was a confidential official document, the content he saw surprised him.

    The establishment of the martial arts hall is divided into several stages to learn the content of tactics and strategies, so that the art of generals is no longer monopolized in the hands of a small number of people, and there is a good reason for placing or transferring generals, which makes people uncomfortable.  I couldn't help but sigh in admiration.

    Moreover, the young officers released by this martial arts hall in many previous battles may not be outstanding, but they firmly control the grassroots, and only a few are promoted. How many talents can be cultivated by such a martial arts hall?  A young general who is used to fighting?

    These generals have a strange set of rules for leading their troops, and their loyalty to Emperor Dacheng is relatively reliable. Zhao Yuanjing is not pedantic, and he has always admired this organization.

    It¡¯s just that the war is over. Although there is still a force in Grassland and Youzhou that has not been pacified, pacification is not difficult for the current Dacheng Dynasty. It is just a matter of time.

    The world was at peace and the troops were disbanded. The existing martial arts halls were enough for the Dacheng Dynasty. Some people couldn't understand why another one was built at this time.

    Zhao Yuanjing had a vague idea in his heart

    The rank of secretaries has never been very high. Except for Zhang Youzhi, most officials are in the seventh rank. But everyone knows that this institution is dedicated to cultivating future high-ranking officials.

    After a few years of training here, even the most mediocre person will be a county magistrate in the local area, and his future will be smooth. And the people who come out here are even more remarkable. Most of the future generals and ministers will come from  Come out of these people.

    Even those with a higher rank than secretaries and officials will be very polite. No one wants to have a senior official become their enemy many years later.

    But this kind of "small insider" cannot stay for a long time. Zhao Yuanjing has been in the secretary's post for a year and a half, and his official position has reached the seventh rank. He has received an order from the Ministry of Personnel and was devolved to be a county magistrate.

    Although it was a flat transfer, secretaries and officials who could be assigned overseas were all promoted immediately after their term of office. This transfer to county magistrate made Zhao Yuanjing feel sad but also a little happy.

    ¡°Forget it, I have already been transferred from Secret Wen. I don¡¯t need to worry about these martial arts hall matters. What I want to think about is how to govern a county when I arrive in the future.

    When I was thinking about this, I felt the carriage shake, the carriage stopped, and a familiar voice said: "Master, we are here."

    "The two guards following Zhao Yuanjing's carriage stopped. One of them got off the horse and immediately walked to the carriage and opened the door. Zhao Yuanjing got off the carriage at this time and was supported by the man, and his feet fell to the ground.

    At this time, it was getting dark and the rain was still falling. Zhao Yuanjing looked around and found a painting boat parked on the river not far away.

    The boat is very elegant. There are lanterns lit outside at this time. It is very beautiful on the water.

    "Master, there must be a lot of people here. There are seven or eight carriages parked there! I just went over to ask, and among them were people from Mr. Qin's house."

    Another soldier came over at this time. He had just gone forward and now he was talking in front of Zhao Yuanjing.

    Zhao Yuanjing looked in the direction he was pointing and saw that there were many carriages parked in the open space and were guarded by servants.

    This time, as he was devolved to the county magistrate, his colleagues from the Secretariat naturally wanted to have a banquet to see him off. Not only that, there were also officials from other yamen and several businessmen.

    "Since they are here, the boat in front of you should be there. Go and ask again!" Zhao Yuanjing said.

      Immediately one person agreed and went over to inquire. Another person stood on the left and right of Zhao Yuanjing and looked around.

    In other words, the imperial court dispatched "defense officers" whose most important responsibility was of course to protect the safety of officials, but they were also responsible for aboveboard supervision.

    The seventh rank has a dedicated troop dispatch, and more troops will be dispatched as the official rank rises. Every time a province is reached, a new troop will be dispatched in the city, and the personnel are mobile.

    But for people who were born in Miwen, these two soldiers were fixed. No matter where he went or what official he held, these two people would always follow him.

    Therefore, mature people will understand each other's duties and have a good relationship with each other. Soldiers cannot neglect their own duties just because they have the responsibility of supervision, and officials cannot be dissatisfied with the soldiers just because they have supervision.

    This is a very tacit mutual relationship.
