eldest son of Ming dynasty

Kui'er herself has no father or mother, and was adopted by Dr. Tan, so for such a big matter, she has to go out of the palace to talk to Dr. Tan.

Zhu Houzhao fully understood this point.

Raising him and teaching him medical skills, although this kind of kindness is not a parent, it is better than a parent.

Doctor Tan sat cross-legged, she only said one word,

"Have you really made up your mind?"

The spring breeze blew the wind chimes and made a clattering sound.

Where they lived, the windows were full of greenery, and the green bamboo was opened, and the rainwater flowed into the pool in the courtyard, which was clean, elegant and refreshing.

On this side of the window are them, the old and the young, sitting quietly opposite each other.

Doctor Tan's hair on the sideburns has turned white, and there are wrinkles around his eyes. He obviously has not done heavy work, but his hands are also rough.

The girl on the opposite side is tall and tall, with long black hair scattered on her back. Today she is wearing a long green dress, which is called 'Chunyun imitates Daishan with thousands of stacks, and the painting pavilion cages smoked willows for half a day'.

The beautiful scenery is eye-catching, and the beauties are even more eye-catching. This is roughly what Qingshan Rudai said.

"Actually, I didn't even think about it."

Doctor Tan looked out of the window, "Is it because you are confused?"

"It's a little... confused."

"Oh. Life is full of love and infatuation. This hatred has nothing to do with the wind and the moon. Women are confused when they are entrusted in their hearts. But you are also very capable, and you have chosen the most unique man in the world."

Kui'er pursed her lips, the corners of her eyes held the shyness unique to girls.

"Being a teacher for one day and being a father for life. The master's kindness in nurturing is unforgettable for the disciples in this life."

After she finished speaking, she kowtowed deeply, and this action caused a few strands of black hair to fall down her shoulders.

"It's okay to be a teacher. But where is your senior sister? Didn't the two of you agree not to marry in this life?"

Speaking of this, Kui Er is also wrong.

I was ignorant before, so I didn't know what it was like to miss someone. I just thought that Master and Senior Sister treated me well, so I happily agreed. Now, I have to admit my mistake.

"Senior Sister, I will talk about it later."

"En." Tan Yunxian thought about the appearance of the emperor, they are people who often enter the harem, and they also have a certain understanding of the emperor's temperament, Kui'er and him... should be fine.

only……

"Kuier."

"Yes."

"The ancients used to say that once you enter the palace, the gate is as deep as the sea, the walls are high and the courtyard is deep, and there are many rules. You can only be careful when you get inside."

"The disciple understands."

"Even if you have a baby in the future, don't fight for it. In this world, utilitarianism is the most important thing in life. In fact, the so-called hegemony and grand plans will eventually return to a pile of loess."

"Thank you, Master, for teaching."

After saying this, Kui'er left, and then went to knock on the door of the senior sister.

Her senior sister, Xin Hui, is much shorter than her. In fact, even though she is tall among girls, there are few who can be as tall as her.

When the two stood together, one tall and one short, the contrast was obvious.

"Senior sister, can you accompany me to the street?"

Xin Hui was working on something, it was very strange to hear this, "There is no special reason, what are you doing on the street?"

In fact, there are, because Kui'er feels that it will be more difficult for her to go to the streets in the future.

Taking advantage of the opportunity now, of course I want to take a look.

Many acquaintances in the clinic have gradually settled down in Beijing, and she also wants to visit.

"Sister, just accompany me."

"Well...well, just wait for me a moment."

……

……

Qianqing Palace.

Liang Shangshu of the Ministry of Officials, Qi Shangshu of the Ministry of War, Zhao Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment, Yang Ge Lao and Wang Ge Lao all faced the king.

"When will Wang Dehui enter Beijing?"

Liang Chu replied: "A month ago, the cabinet and the Ministry of Officials have gone to order. If there is no heavy rain blocking the way, it will take another seven or eight days at most."

Zhu Houzhao was thinking about Kui'er's title issue, which needs to go through the Ministry of Rites.But since it only takes seven or eight days, then wait a little bit, and don't rush for such a while.

As for the original Shangshu Lin Han, he has completed three memorials to beg for bones, which means that the procedure has been completed.

For this kind of veteran, Zhu Houzhao will still be generous, there is no need to be stingy at this time, it seems that he is narrow-minded.

"I remember Lin Shangshu's father and son are both Jinshi?"

Everyone in Beijing remembers this.

Three generations of Jinshi, after all, is also a good story.

Liang Chu continued to report, "Your Majesty's words are correct. His father, Lin Yu, was a Jinshi in the 19th year of Yongle, and was an official to the prefect of Fuzhou Prefecture. His son Lin Ting, a Jinshi in the 12th year of Hongzhi, is now the prefect of Suzhou Prefecture."

"How is your performance as an official?"

"Lin Ting is an elegant and clean official, good at talking clearly. His conduct is outstanding, and his speech must be frugal to lead the world. He is a clean and honest minister."

Zhu Houzhao nodded, "Three generations have been Jinshi, and the Lin family is also a prominent family in southern Fujian. After Lin Shangshu returns to his hometown, he must ask his neighbors to educate his neighbors, love the people, and set a good example. But if he hears that he has done harm to our people, I will not forgive him lightly."

"Yes, I will obey the order."

"Since Lin Ting, his son, has been blessed by his ancestors, he should follow the example of his father, be loyal to his affairs, and be self-restraining. In my opinion, I will transfer him to be the magistrate of Huai'an Prefecture. The Ministry of Officials will pay attention to inspecting his achievements. If the mess is cleared up well, remember to pass things into the palace, and I will be promoted again."

Lin Ting later became a minister, so ability should not be a big problem.

In fact, the Lin family in southern Fujian was quite famous in the Ming Dynasty.Because their family has produced five ministers.

The so-called seven subjects and eight Jinshi, three generations and five ministers are referring to this Lin family.

Of course, if Zhu Houzhao's Lin Ting is just a name, then the position of Minister is not in his hands.

From Suzhou Mansion to Huai'an Mansion, it seems that there is no promotion,
However, things in the officialdom are very delicate. If something happens in the Huai'an Mansion, it will naturally attract the attention of the higher-ups. On this basis, as long as he makes achievements, it will be easier for him to get attention.

Sometimes attention is more important than grades.

People who have been grassroots officials must understand this point.

So Ge Lao and Shang Shu knew that this was also a care for Lin Han.

The people of the country still value this point. The so-called meritorious deeds, confiding their wives and children, parents who have struggled for half their lives, sometimes it is really for their children, and they hope that their children can take over their mantle.

And the behavior of the emperor always seems to be 'separated' like this,
Good to you, good to the bottom of my heart,

It's bad for you, it's useless for anyone to intercede, you have to be chopped off.

In any case, the ending of Lin's father and son still made the Qianqing Palace feel a little more heart-warming. Everyone is still familiar with the emperor, and the mood is a little relaxed.

"Your Majesty, after Lin Ting left Suzhou, the position of prefect of Suzhou Prefecture will be vacant."

Generally speaking, the appointment of the magistrate does not need to be brought to the emperor, at most it is written in the memorial, so that the emperor knows.But Suzhou Mansion is different, it's a bit exaggerated...

But it's true, the annual tax of Suzhou Prefecture is more than 200 million shi...accounting for one-tenth of the whole country.

Suzhou Prefecture plus Songjiang Prefecture (more than 100 million shi), Changzhou Prefecture (about 50 shi), plus the remaining prefectures and prefectures in Nanzhili, accounted for one-fifth of the country's tax revenue.

Not that the place is rich.

It is because the people here once supported Zhang Shicheng, and Zhu Yuanzhang collected very heavy taxes here.

As a result, the taxation of Suzhou prefecture exceeds that of Zhejiang, Fujian, Sichuan and other provinces.

From this point of view, where Suzhou Prefecture is a government, it is clearly a province.

So it's not too inappropriate for Liang Chu to really discuss it.

But for Zhu Houzhao, he was not familiar with low-ranking officials, so he could only ask, "Do you have any recommended candidates?"

Wang Ge, who had been silent for a long time, said, "My minister recommended Zhou Zheng, the magistrate of the Daming Prefecture. This man was originally the magistrate of Liangxiang County. He has a quiet personality and a clean name. When he is an official, he must put the court and the people first."

Zhu Houzhao thought that Wang Bing must have recruited some people in the battle of Liangxiang.

If the war is won, everyone will be promoted, and Zhou Zheng is probably the same.

"Is that the same opinion, Ministry of Officials?"

There was some pause in the emperor's words, and there was an indescribable meaning.

Wang Bing's heart sank a little. If the emperor agreed, there was no need to ask. If he asked at this time, he obviously disagreed.

Ministry of officials...

The contact person of the Ministry of Officials is Yang Yiqing.

"My minister inspected the county magistrates of the 13 provinces in the two capitals, but felt that Jiang Yong, the county magistrate of Deqing County, Huzhou Prefecture, had brilliant achievements and was worthy of great responsibility." Liang Chu really didn't give Wang Bing any face.

Wang Bing is somewhat stronger.

He is Ge Lao, and the people under his direct management can't help it.

Others, sometimes they don't take him too seriously, especially when the emperor clearly disagrees with him.

Liang Chu would not be so afraid of him.

This Minister of the Ministry of Officials does not usually have a high sense of presence. At the beginning, Wang Jia was transferred to the governor of Zhejiang and Fujian temporarily, so he was allowed to take over.But it will take four years to take over, and what I have done is to be steady.

Because he has a political qualification that many people envy: when the current emperor was still the prince, Liang Chu was an official of the East Palace and served as the prince Xianma.

This position was a very prominent position in the Han and Tang Dynasties. He was in charge of classics and books, and he felt a bit like the director of the East Palace Office.

In the Ming Dynasty, although its status declined.But the skinny camel is bigger than the horse, no matter what, he is also the prince's attendant, and he is the one who assisted the prince in studying!

What is this called?
Old man, confidant!
Otherwise, why didn't the Minister of the Ministry of Officials ask someone else to take over?

Zhu Houzhao agreed intentionally, but he didn't want to refute Wang Bing's face too much, so he asked again: "Mr. Yang Ge, what do you think?"

"Weichen thinks that it will be decided according to the performance appraisal, and whoever is the best will be selected."

"It makes sense, just as Yang Ge said."

Yang Yiqing had a lot to say, and the dignified Minister of the Ministry of Officials would never pay attention to ordinary people. Jiang Yong, the county magistrate of Deqing, had received a dazzling evaluation from the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, so it must not be bad.

Wang Bing can't say anything more. His political achievements are not as good as others, so who can blame him?I was just thinking in my heart, our Majesty is really as wise as a monster.

"There is one more thing." Zhu Houzhao walked down and walked slowly among the courtiers, "I have been thinking about corruption recently. I remember that when I was the prince, I handled some corruption cases heavily, but after a few years, it seems that there is no improvement. You are all my confidant ministers, and I believe it. But judging from the case of Huai'an Mansion this time, the corruption of officials is shocking.

According to the laws of the Ming Dynasty, officials can be promoted, but officials have no way to be promoted.Think about it, everyone, if you are small officials in the county government, since you can't be promoted, where do you put your thoughts? "

be an official
get rich.

"Gathering money." Zhu Houzhao himself said this word, "and officials often serve in one place for a long time, and after ten or twenty years, they have become a stubborn disease, and they are even more like local snakes in the local area. Huh, even the county magistrate with ordinary methods may be manipulated by him."

This topic is a bit important. How officials and officials are promoted, the connotation behind it is not simple, it can be said to be a fundamental change in the officialdom.Yang Yiqing, Liang Chu, etc. are all experienced old bureaucrats, and their expressions immediately became solemn after hearing the emperor's words.
