I don't want to be king

Chapter 568

Lin Yi stretched his waist, walked out of the study, and walked up to the tower of Prince Jin's Mansion.

Standing on a high place, you can have a panoramic view of Prince Jin's Mansion. Looking around, you can see the bustling streets.

"Have someone set off some firecrackers at the four gates to make it lively. The air is a bit too dull."

In war, it is always the people who suffer the most.

Pingcheng was besieged for three months, and more than a thousand people died of starvation alone!
"Yes,"

After Shen Chu responded, he hesitated for a moment and said, "My lord, there is one more thing, I don't know if I should say it or not."

"Then stop talking."

Lin Yi said angrily.

"."

Shen Chu was stunned.

Their prince still has this temper.

He stopped talking and said boldly, "Now that the battle in Jinzhou has ended, I invite you to go to Chuanzhou."

"Thinking of what?

You are gone, who shall I ask to take care of this Jinzhou? "

Lin Yi rolled his eyes at him and said, "You've been here in Jinzhou for a long time, and you know this place very well, it's better than calling someone else here with your eyes darkened, as for you, don't say too much.

This king is determined to make a thorough military reform this time, and you will be the commander-in-chief of the Jinzhou Military Region. "

He had made military adjustments during Sanhe, and even listed the military ranks of army commander, company commander, regiment commander, and division commander in a bunch.

But inertia is powerful.

Everyone still arranges the positions as usual, such as generals, generals, admirals, etc.

According to the latest Liang law, he had to be called Commander Shen Chu. However, the person who reported to the Ministry of War was the general soldier, which sometimes made the people who wrote the official documents at a loss.

Especially Liang Yuanzhi complained to Lin Yi several times, both openly and secretly.

"Commander-in-Chief?"

Shen Chu was no stranger to the word "commander", he couldn't be a smaller sesame official.

Adding a "general" official title will make it higher?

"Don't worry about it so much, in short, the military dispatch in Jinzhou will be decided by one person in the future,"

Lin Yi thought for a while and said, "What about you, if you are worried about your family members, you can take them all over."

"Thank you, my lord."

Seeing that Shen Chu and the prince were so persistent, they didn't say any more.

Anyway, no matter what, he couldn't go to Chuanzhou, and he couldn't go back to Ankang City.

Lin Yi continued, "The cabinet plans to let Shi Banquan be the chief envoy of Jinzhou. This Jinzhou is initially determined. Everything should be centered on economic development. You two need to support each other."

"The subordinates must fully cooperate with Mr. Shi, and will never dare to affect Jinzhou's economic construction."

Shen Chu is not a fool, so he naturally understands the meaning of He Wangye's words.

What does it mean to focus on economic construction?

To put it bluntly, it is mainly based on Shiban spring!

I, the chief soldier in charge of military affairs, have to stand aside!
It's okay, don't get in your way!

The tune with the prince has already come down, and he has to listen to it if he doesn't.

"That's good. The next task is to carefully eliminate the bandits in Jinzhou. Those who commit the most heinous crimes will be severely punished. If you don't have any lives in your hands, send them to build roads. In short, do everything possible to ensure smooth trade routes."

Lin Yi said slowly, "Everything is for development, everything for development."

"As ordered,"

Shen Chu said loudly, "The subordinates must actively implement the concept of the prince's economic development."

"Hehe, yes, there is progress,"

Lin Yi praised, "Not only do you have to implement it, but you also have to convey it to the people below to let him know the meaning of economic development, and let them understand that whoever cuts off the king's wealth, the king will cut off their official career."

"My subordinate understands."

Shen Chu responded.

Lin Yi nodded and said, "Then there is nothing to say, these days you let out your horse and are ready to meet Master Shi at any time.

In addition, bring back the original officials of Jinzhou Heping City. Let’s not talk about whether they are capable or not. At least they have a better understanding of the situation in Jinzhou. Let them maintain it first. Whether Shibanquan will use them later is Shibanquan something happened. "

"These people are good at drilling camps, and they dare to greedy for the food used for disaster relief,"

Shen Chu said with a smile, "These days, my subordinates have made decisions without authorization and have killed more than ten people. It's not as good as those suppliers. The guys in Tianfu Restaurant, although they are all very young, they are very good at handling things. With a good hand, there is no mistake in giving porridge these days."

"Are you doing an endorsement for them?"

Lin Yi said in surprise.

Shen Chu smiled and said, "Many of these guys are from Jizhou. They were born in poverty. Although they can read some words, it will be very difficult for them to take the official examination. The subordinates thought, why not just recruit talents?"

"Just like those old official posts, it's okay to help with errands, but if you want to be an official, don't even think about it,"

Lin Yi smiled and said, "It is a principle and a system that every public must be tested. Otherwise, if you don't stick to one pattern today, and he doesn't stick to one pattern tomorrow, it will be messed up."

Shen Chu hurriedly said, "This subordinate is absolutely selfless."

"I know you are selfless, but I can't guarantee that others don't,"

Lin Yi insisted, "For those who are really capable, let them take the exam. This is the right way."

After he took charge of the Liang Guochao Gang, the imperial examination system was abolished and replaced by the education system and civil servant system.

Although it caused an uproar, it was far from as difficult as imagined.

The questions of the entrance examination are too simple. Some old masters who have studied hard for ten years have finished the elementary school textbooks in only one year, and then went to the exam slowly, and got the elementary school graduation certificate without any effort.

Because chemistry, physics, and mathematics are all "dead" knowledge!
For those old masters, understanding "buoyancy" is much easier than arguing about the so-called "standing without leaning on strong righteousness"!

One is one, two is two!
This has a standard answer!
After getting the primary school graduation certificate, I directly got the admission ticket to take the civil service examination.

The most surprising thing is that he passed the exam!
Wouldn't they be fools if they disagreed?

What are the three tricks of binding feet to keep warm, hanging head and stabbing thighs, and wei wei are simply insulting?

Need this?

If you still need to study like this now, it means that your IQ is insufficient!

Exams are not necessarily a good system, but they are not bad either.

At least it is better than meritocracy and cronyism.

In the end, it resulted in a poor family with no noble children.

"What the lord said is."

Shen Chu bowed and said.

"Anyone who does not have a primary school diploma should not even think about becoming an official, even a petty official. This is a matter of principle,"

Lin Yi emphasized again, "In the future, we have to go deep into the grassroots. For those who don't have a primary school diploma, the village head may not be able to do it."

The north wind howled, blowing the dry trees beside the road, and Lin Yi's face was hurt by the rolled up sand and gravel.

He wrapped his jacket tighter and looked at the approaching carriageway in the distance, "I have to run before it snows."

Once the road is blocked by heavy snow, he will suffer when he returns to Ankang City.

Lei Kaishan said, "The little one made preparations early in the morning, just waiting for the order from the prince."

He also looked forward to the early return of the prince.

Otherwise, if something happens, they really can't afford it.

Shi Banquan was sitting in the carriage, holding the stove in his hands, and slightly closed his eyes. When he heard the attendant say that he was coming soon, he opened a corner of the curtain of the carriage, and saw a large group of people from a distance, who must have come to welcome him. , don't take it seriously.

After all, he is now a local official, so it is normal.

But as he got closer, he suddenly felt something was wrong.

The armor in front is bright, and there are many swords and guns. What's the situation?
No matter how much Shen Chu saves himself, he won't be putting on a guard of honor, right?

He said eagerly, "Did you find out from the front?"

After a burst of eager hoofbeats, a young man reported back, "My lord, it's my lord, and my lord came out to welcome you!"

"what"

Shi Banquan was taken aback!
Of course he knew that he was in Pingcheng with the prince.

But I never thought that Prince He would come out to greet him in person!
After all, people like Wang Ye have never engaged in the practice of "respectful and virtuous corporals".

The principle of He Wangye has always been "you don't do it, some people do it", and even said that "three-legged toads are hard to find, and two-legged people are everywhere".

In the eyes of Lord He, the importance of these people is probably not as important as those blacksmiths in the Academy of Sciences.

If you have to say the reason, it is that He Wangye advocates "science" and hates "the one who knows".

Now the court memorials can't wait to write them in vernacular, because they are afraid that the prince and the prince will not be able to understand them.

I will cry if I continue!

He hurriedly got out of the carriage and yelled at the boy on the horse, "You read that right?"

The boy straightened the hat on his head, and said loudly, "Master, even if I admit my mistake, no one can admit that I am wrong with the prince, right?"

Shi Banquan continued to squint his eyes, looked into the distance and said, "That's right."

He was originally a member of Sanhe. When he was in Sanhe with the prince, he often wandered around the streets and alleys of Baiyun City. He was able to catch up with a few words, so many people knew him, and it was impossible to admit that he was wrong. .

What's more, who else can make Shen Chu put on a big guard of honor besides the prince?

Can't go wrong!

The servant continued, "My lord, our lord really values ​​you."

"To shut up,"

After Shi Banquan scolded, he said to the groom, "Hurry up, don't keep the prince waiting."

Standing on the carriage, as the carriage got closer to the city gate, the figure in front became clearer.

When he got close, he didn't wait for the carriage to come to a complete stop, he jumped down, rushed two steps, knelt down and said, "Chen Shi Banquan sees the prince, a thousand years ago!"

Lin Yi shrank his neck, rolled up his sleeves and said, "Get up, the journey is tiring, and you still make such a big noise, don't dislike being tired and flustered."

"Thank you, Lord."

Shi Banquan stood up, and as soon as he raised his head, he saw King Nanling, King Jin, Yang Changchun, and Mei Jingzhi next to Prince He. He was about to hand in hand when he heard Prince He say impatiently, "Okay, what's the matter, let's talk about it when we go back." , it's cold outside."

"Yes."

Shi Banquan smiled wryly.

Fortunately, he has long been used to the temperament of the prince.

Not to mention it, it's already a great honor for him and the prince to come out to greet him in person!

This is not something anyone can earn if they want to!
After getting into his own carriage, he went directly to Prince Jin's Mansion.

The boy got on the carriage, stuck his head into the carriage, and said in a low voice, "Master, someone just came to spread the word that we can't follow into Prince Jin's mansion, and arranged us directly into the Pingcheng mansion."

Shi Banquan nodded and said, "In that case, you can go with others."

The boy said, "Master, let's go, who will take care of you?
At that time, there will be no one around you to order. "

Shi Banquan said, "There must be a reason for their arrangement, so you don't need to make noise."

The boy said, "Yes."

When they arrived at the gate of the mansion, Shi Banquan got out of the carriage with the help of a servant, and after giving them a few instructions, he was led by a handyman who came out of the palace, and washed up first.

The wind suddenly picked up and the temperature dropped again.

Lin Yi was still too cold, and he complained to King Jin next to him, "You're only doing fancy things outside, why can't you keep warm inside?
Are you able to resist freezing in winter? "

King Jin was stunned.

Can the **** blame him?

I begged you to come?

Please get out of here, please!

However, there was still a smile on his face, "The regent doesn't know something. This room is specially used for receiving guests. There is no heating kang. There are special heating rooms in autumn and winter."

"Forget it, it's still too early to enter the conservatory,"

After Lin Yi sat down, holding the warm teapot in his arms, he looked at the people standing there, "They're all sitting, why are you staring blankly?"

"Thank you, Regent."

Everyone said in unison.

"Come here, serve the meal, and add more charcoal pots,"

Lin Yi shivered from the cold, "Is it going to snow?"

King Jin said, "Hurry up."

"Then I have to go now,"

Lin Yi looked at Shi Banquan and said, "You, since you're here, hurry up and get acquainted. This winter is no joke, it's going to kill you."

"Don't worry, my lord,"

Shi Banquan stood up and said, "I have made an agreement with Mr. Gan Mao that [-] dans of grain will enter Jinzhou before winter begins."

Lin Yi asked in confusion, "Gan Mao is so generous?"

One hundred thousand dans of grain is equivalent to killing Gan Mao!
He didn't even have to come out to find Gan Mao, let alone the relationship between Shi Banquan and Gan Mao was relatively ordinary.

Shi Banquan forgot to turn left and right, as if there was something unspeakable.

Lin Yi said, "If you have anything to say, just say it directly. You are all your own people in front of you. There is no need to hide it."

Shi Banquan said, "Jinzhou is rich in coal, and I used coal as a guarantee to exchange the [-] dan of grain."

After speaking, like everyone else, he looked at King Jin who was frowning.

Lin Yi smiled and said, "I almost forgot, brother, you are the biggest coal boss in Jinzhou.

What's yours is mine, so you're welcome, brother. "

King Jin hurriedly said, "The regent is wise."

He finally remembered what Lin Yi once said: The greatest pain in life is that people are alive and money is gone!

Now that I think about it again, I am deeply impressed!
It's really uncomfortable to see my things go into other people's pockets.

After three rounds of wine.

Lin Yi's body couldn't help warming up, he took off his jacket, raised his wine glass and said, "General Mei, General Yang, please!"

"Thank you Regent!"

The two stood up, and after speaking in unison, they drank the wine in their glasses.

"These days, I have neglected you a bit, and you don't mind."

"Don't dare."

"You two don't need to be discouraged,"

Lin Yi looked the two of them up and down and continued, "As the saying goes, if a prostitute has a good evening life, she will have no trouble with fireworks for the rest of her life; if a chaste woman loses her life, she will be miserable for half her life.

Share with you two! "

He raised his glass again.

"Thank you Regent!"

The two are unhappy!

Comparing them to prostitutes?

However, he obediently raised his cup and raised his neck to finish drinking.
