I, my father-in-law, set off a frenzy of public examinations in ancient times

"Wozi country is the most capricious country. Its people are very humble. They don't know the kindness in the world, and they just blindly fear Wuwei... so it's right not to give them a good face..."

"Where did you hear all this? Why did you bring it up to the Wa Kingdom again? You are quite hostile to them..."

Guan and Jun were a little embarrassed, and kept silent: That means you don't know their nature yet! ——

"Okay, okay", Han Yinchu waved his hand impatiently: "Stop talking about such useless things, anyway, I won't allow you to go to Dongfan; I think you really have nothing to do recently, right?! If so I'm too free, help me read the memorial, don't run out these few days..."

Guan Yujun, who likes to mention the "foot ban", instantly looks like a dehydrated cabbage, with a face full of lovelessness.

Han Yin opened his mouth at the beginning, but he hesitated to speak.He rubbed his fingers, and said tentatively: "As for the diamond, I thought that if necessary, I would go to Huguang personally, and I can let you accompany me..."

"Really?!" Guan Yujun was overjoyed, and it would be fine if he could go to Guangxi by the way, maybe he could find Baogu...

"However, my lord, this matter is neither big nor small, and it is all right to send Jin Yiwei to take a look; do you really... want to go in person?—" Guan Yujun asked.

Han Yin put her hands behind her back and pursed her lips, not saying a word.

He pointed to a small box in the corner, Xiao Yuyan quickly moved the box to Guan Yujun's desk.

In this way, Guan Yujun also became serious, and picked them up to browse one by one.

The more she looked down, the tighter her frown became...

It turns out that Huguang's tricks are not at 01:30:

The chief minister is firstly in charge of the personnel power of a province and is responsible for restraining and governing subordinate government, state, and county officials; secondly, managing the province's wealth; and thirdly, organizing the promotion examination and selection of officials;

Isn't this the modern head of a province?By the way, he also carried personnel and finances on his shoulders, and represented a province to be directly responsible to the imperial court represented by the governor and the Ministry of officials.

However, since the founding of the country, the Chief Executive of the head of such a province has been held by a native of the land of the two lakes; The treatment effect seems to be "minimal"...

"Previously, the emperor's grandfather used the method of 'removal of special decree and recommendation of court officials' to select Huguang's political envoys, but without exception, one after another was selected; You see, the new chief envoy has only been in office for more than a month, and this kind of incident happened..."

It was almost succeeded in being alienated.Guan Yujun added a sentence in his heart.

"According to the inspectors and the local admirals and general soldiers, can't they form a constraint on this 'chief envoy'?"

"Hehe", Han Yinchu gave a sneer without emotion, and the whole Qianqing Palace instantly fell into an ice cellar:

"The person in charge of punishment wants to restrain those in charge of finance and taxation? Those admirals and soldiers under the command of the general are even pointing at the rations of the government, prefecture, and county below to eat! Who do you think is going to restrain whom?——

"Huguang is ripe and the world is full", the weather has been good these years, but the amount of grain paid in Huguang has been decreasing year by year, there are always so many reasons; occasionally the governor is sent to inspect, but it is all "the world is peaceful" The scene is like sending beggars away, and more food from that year can be brought back..."

But it can't be like squeezing toothpaste!Squeeze a little out!
Guan Yujun understands that Huguang is a big matter, and it is definitely not something that can be solved by changing the chief envoy. Besides, the current chief envoy does not know how long he can serve...

Looking at it now, there is really no one in the court who can take on this great task, and her and Han Yinchu's trip to Huguang is imperative! ——

***
"Start playing if there is something to do, and leave the court if there is nothing to do!"——"

After Huang Bao sang, some people in the ranks of hundreds of officials began to whisper to each other.

Han Yinchu felt a little restless in his heart: "If you have anything to say, just say it face to face. Do you have to discuss it first before reporting?"

In the end, it was Mr. Zhang, the oldest among them, who spoke. After all, he is a veteran. Even if the emperor wants to punish him, he must first weigh his old bones...

"Your Majesty, my ministers have always been complaining in their hearts, and now they really can't express it..." The old man came out tremblingly, his voice was like an old bellows creaking.

Han Yinchu was slightly unprepared, who was sending such a person out to bury him?Besides, he looks so sloppy?How long will it take to finish?No, when he went to Zuixian Tower that day, he watched Zhang Qing trot, and he didn't breathe a lot when going up the stairs. He looked very healthy! ...

"Your Majesty, my ministers are quite critical of the questions given in the Enke Examination. It's fine to take the Jinshi and Mingjing, but what is it called? Since Li Tang, how can there be an imperial examination to test mathematics?
At that time, when the Minister of the Ministry of Households was selected, it was nothing more than a matter of Taoism and mathematics, which was a small area after all; now that Enke is mobilizing teachers and mobilizing people like this, isn't it going to encourage the study of mathematics instead of the Four Books and Five Classics all over the world? ..."

The more Mr. Zhang talked, the more excited he became, they were saying "Xiang Zhuang's sword dance is aimed at Pei Gong"!Aren't the behinds of Mathematics and Enke all directed at Mr. Guan?As long as you start with this head, you will definitely count the felony crimes against you later! ——

So what if you don't know the emperor?This is above the court!There are so many of them, and most of them say that calculations are useless, if the emperor still insists on protecting Guan Yujun, he is trying to cover up the truth!
At that time, the whole world will know that little Eunuch Guan, but he is just a thing that can "charm the Lord"...

Han Yinchu raised his hand to stop Mr. Zhang from talking, and took out a memorial, asking Eunuch Huang Bao to continue reading:
"Recently, my minister was sent to a county in Chaoyang, and found that there were no grains of rice in the granaries, and no grains left in the warehouses... Gai needs to collect more than [-] stones of rice grain every year to ration the guards in Haimen, Dahao, Chaoyang, and Huilai. The fifth battalion soldiers and horses in Chaozhou, Chaozhou and other places ate it.

Three thousand shi of official grain was urgently dispatched from neighboring counties to meet the emergency temporarily.

However, to recruit ships for transshipment, it takes more than [-] days to go up and down the beach. How can the sergeant wait for it?At the same time, where does the cost of hiring ships and freight come from?Moreover, it will not be easy to return the grain at that time, and the cost of going back and forth is quite high, which is not a long-term solution.

Since the previous three years, Chaoyang has not been able to collect rice for three consecutive years. His Majesty Chensi can halve the collection share of Chaoyang County and share it with neighboring counties, and the situation may ease..."

"Zhang Aiqing should not be old and dim-sighted, do you understand?" Han Yinchu asked with a smile.

Even if you don't understand it, you can't admit it! ——Master Zhang straightened his chest and nodded proudly.
