Yun Ye stayed in Hengyang and erected the camp of his general Hussars. As the top military official, he naturally had the right to establish a government office and open accounts. Military interrogation of criminals was very simple, with only a simple stick or beheading. If Yun Ye If Ye is more aggressive, he can still beat people to death without having to bear responsibility. .
Di Renjie was very suitable as an interrogator, so Yun Ye stopped thinking about it and focused all his attention on the public security of Hengyang. Also coming to Hengyang with Di Renjie was Yuan Jia, the government official. A man with a very good official reputation. Although he only became a fifth-rank official in his fifties, he didn't seem to care. His long beard fluttered on his long, clear face, making him look very elegant.
It was this young man who had no hesitation in marrying the singer of Yanlailou. Although Shen Gonghai, Yao Si, and Zhu Zhi at the same time as him had long been famous officials in the Tang Dynasty, especially Shen Gonghai, who was now deposed as the envoy from Hedong. He jumped to the position of left minister of the household department, which was a smooth rise to the top. However, Yuan Jia's promotion speed was far behind Shen Gonghai's, and he could never cross the natural chasm of being a fourth-rank official.
In the Tang Dynasty, the so-called elite refers to officials above the fourth rank. Those below the fourth rank are not in the emperor's eyes. Although Yuanjia's political achievements are very superior, his annual evaluation can only be average. The biggest reason is that Personal virtue is lacking.
Di Renjie is an anomaly. His promotion speed is difficult for others to compare with. It would be a shame if he could not rise to the top even if he has a very powerful master. Therefore, Yun Ye has always left Di Renjie alone. His own talent is enough for him to succeed in the court. Get a foothold.
"Yuanjia, you managed floods when you were in Huizhou, and you opened up business routes when you were in Suizhou. These two achievements are enough for you to stand out among officials. How come you are still a fifth-rank official now? If you were in Hengyang, If you serve as a tributary again, you are the person who has held the most governorships in the Tang Dynasty. I don't believe you when you say that your personal ethics are lacking. What other crazy things have you done to make the officials torment you like this?"
Yun Ye looked at his student with a smile, took a sip of hot tea and asked with a smile.
"Replying to my mentor, it is already a great blessing for me to be able to become a feudal official from a white man. A fifth-grade official may be the limit of my abilities, which makes my mentor laugh." Yuan Jia answered carefully. It looked like he had been an official for many years. In the end, life has polished this person's edges and corners completely.
Yun Ye waved his hand and said with a smile: "This is still what the tough guy from the academy said. If it is, it is, if it is not, it is not. You are my student. Naturally, sir, I will not ignore you being bullied. If you are I don't care about other reasons. If it's because of your wife's marriage, your husband can still intervene. A bunch of idiots and Mr. Li Gang's matchmaking can't prove that your wife is a good woman? After all, your husband has drank the wine offered by your wife. For tea and wine, I will go to the official department and ask."
Yuan Jia stood up and knelt down to thank him, then he cupped his hands and said, "Sir, there is no need to go to such great lengths. Shen Gonghai, Yao Si, and Zhu Zong have all complained on my behalf. They are the ones who do not want to enter Chang'an. Otherwise, three years ago* *You should be transferred to the head of the Household Department,** thank you sir for your concern."
Yun Ye felt very surprised and said: "Why is this? Don't you have any ambition anymore?"
"**The ambition is still there, but the ambition is concerned with the people rather than the official positions. Now our country of the Tang Dynasty is at the peak of the sky. With a sage emperor and a wise man like Mr. He at the helm, the future of the Tang Dynasty will be bright." Nature is bright. He discovered that our Tang Dynasty has no shortage of famous generals and talents who can criticize the chiefs. It only lacks local officials who can calm down and guide the people forward. He is not talented and thinks that he has no talent in the academy. At first glance, it would be a great tragedy if what you have learned in your life cannot be used in practice. As for the trivial matters of status and fame, if you enter the Ministry of Household Affairs as the director and spend the whole day buried in paperwork, that will , the knowledge learned will be wasted, which is not cost-effective."
"Hahaha, what a Yuan Jiayuan Hongyi, I am not as good as you! But why are you here with such a big box? You can't be here to pay bribes, right? Your husband has been rich all his life, and his vision is not low!"
Yuan Jia smiled brightly, showing his big white teeth. He opened the box with a big smile, took out a book of notes from the inside, put them on the case, pointed at these notes and said: "Sir, you see, ** has not been lying on the corpse in these years. , served as an official for four times as governor, which gave students a new understanding of the concept of the people, so it took two years to compile and sort it out. ** named it "Min Lun". There may be some parts in it that are not very clear. , that¡¯s because **¡¯s talent and knowledge are limited, sir, please correct me!¡±
Yun Ye opened the top book with a smile, and a line of round calligraphy fell into his eyes. He was shocked after taking a look at it!
""Spring and Autumn Period. Gu Liang Biography" says: "In ancient times, there were four people: scholars, merchants, farmers, and workers." "Guanzi Xiaokuang" says: "The four peoples, scholars, farmers, industry, and merchants, are the stone people of the country. also. "It means the pillar of the country." Han Shu"Shi Huo Zhi 1" says: "Scholars, farmers, industry and commerce, all four peoples have industries, and those who study and occupy the position are called scholars.
However, things in the world are changing and the changes are endless. Scholars, farmers, industry and merchants are called the four peoples. The theory began with Guanzi (Guan Zhong). "Yuanjia believes that scholars, farmers, workers, and merchants "are all one and the same in the way that is beneficial to people." In ancient times, the four peoples had different professions but the same way, and they all had one mind."
Yun Ye looked at Yuan Jia and said, "Are you going to put scholars, farmers, industry and commerce on the same level? Are you going to turn all the privileges of scholars to civilians?"
Yuan Jia looked at his teacher without blinking and said: "We are all made of flesh and blood, father and mother, so why should we separate a noble and noble person? To impose acquired material conditions on innate people, This goes against the will of heaven!¡±
Yun Ye nodded and said: "I understand, no one is willing to print your book for you, right? Then you think that the teacher's head is relatively big, and it is not a big deal to wear such a hat, so you come to me to support it. Tank? Do you know what impact your knowledge will have after it spreads? The first thing you have to pass is the innate imperial power. Boy, after all, you still have no intention of risking your life for the truth."
Yuan Jiajian smiled and said: "When Mr. gave her the first lesson, he was talking about how to protect herself. She will naturally follow the good deeds. Now Yuan Baoer has given birth to four children for her, three boys and one girl. Although the family's life is not as good as that of a wealthy family, they are still living a healthy and comfortable life. Such a good life is not enough, so I can only ask my husband to publish this book.
Originally, we wanted to find Shen Gonghai, but the guy was so frightened that he ran away all night. Yao Si and Zhu Zong were unwilling to help. Now they will pretend to be sick as soon as they hear the doctor coming to visit! "
Yun Ye smiled bitterly and said: "Don't talk about them, sir, I also have the idea of ??falling ill now. Your husband is now a powerful minister. As a powerful minister, if you don't want to be Wang Mang, then you can't harm the imperial power, unless I add Jiuxi like Cao ** now , but do you know what the consequences will be?"
Yuan Jia nodded and said: "The Tang Dynasty will be in chaos immediately, and it is likely to fall apart."
"Do you want to see such a scene?" Yun Ye asked again with a smile.
Yuan Jia shook his head and said, "Damn Meng Lang, you are indeed the most unsuitable person to publish this book. There are loopholes in your idea. You are wrong."
Yun Ye laughed and said: "Yes, you are right. People are born and raised by their parents. They are indeed of the same flesh and blood. It is really inappropriate to artificially divide them into three, six or nine grades, so you said There's nothing wrong with that.
But Yuanjia, if you want to realize your wish, you must find some like-minded people to make things easier. "
Yuan Jia shook his head in confusion and said: "My dear friends Shen Gonghai, Yao Si and Zhu Zong are not willing, so who else can I turn to?"
Yun Ye impatiently picked up a jade Ruyi from the table, knocked Yuan Jia on the head and said: "Stupid, stupid! How could the academy teach idiots like you, Shen Gonghai, Yao Si, Zhu Zongdu They are people with vested interests. If you ask them to promote your theories, aren't you asking for fish in a tree?
Go back and think carefully about who is your most suitable sales target. As long as you find the right person, not only will you not have trouble, but you will also get great support. Don't publish your book then, even if it is fully engraved There is no problem in the world.
Get out of here, I am a scholar and I firmly do not agree to stand on the same starting line as the people. "
Yuan Jia carried her suitcase and was kicked out of the living room by her husband in confusion. As she was walking and thinking, she bumped into a pillar and fell to the ground dizzily. She still couldn't think of anyone who could be so courageous.
The gentleman is already at the pinnacle of being a human minister. If he can't do it, how can he expect Changsun Chong? Dugumou? In Yuan Jia's opinion, these two people are simply the most corrupt existences in the world.
Who else could it be? The gentleman is now bound by the word "powerful minister" and cannot move. Who else can be more powerful than the gentleman? My husband just said that he is not prepared to step into this quagmire. For the sake of Datang's stability, he really cannot be allowed to step in.
Who is it? Yuan Jia came out of her husband's station, so depressed that she almost wanted to scream to the sky! Since the gentleman said that there is such a person or a group of people, then there must be one, but who is this person?
Yuan Jia was walking in front with his hands behind his back, and the old servant was following behind with a load. Although Hengyang was seriously harmed by Li Xiang, it was still an important place in the south of the lake. The merchants of the empire followed the army to take advantage. All fools knew that Li Xiang An elephant cannot defeat the general. Once Hengyang is recovered, the commercial power there will definitely be wiped out. It is rare to have such a good opportunity now. Businessmen swarm in like blood-sucking locusts, desperately trying to seize the market. Such an opportunity It's so rare. There are very few wars in the Tang Dynasty. The commerce in every place has long been divided up. It's hard to find a blank area.
Yuanjia looked at that with boredom?Mercenary businessmen, they are either fat and skinny, none of them are pleasing to the eye. I don¡¯t know why such people are listed among the four peoples?
Yuan Jia seemed stunned. His efforts were not for business among the four people, but for the welfare of workers and farmers. He felt that he had missed something, a very important point.
He needed to think about it, he really needed to think about it, something was wrong. Yuan Jia felt that his mind was as messed up as a pot of porridge. The noise of the businessmen seemed to get louder, and finally filled his mind, almost overwhelming him. Complete annihilation (To be continued.)
