Daming: Mixed in Dangzhi County, Beiping

Chapter 9 Today, Ascension!
No matter how distressed the elders were, how anxious Ning Deyou, Qi Nong and others were, Guo An went to Ning Daguang's house and checked every farm tool.

For Ning Daguang and other people's families who are relatively wealthy, they choose to turn a blind eye!
At the same time, it took another half a day to understand the basic situation of Ning Daguang, Wang Shilai and others in Jiali.

Afterwards, Guo An returned to the county government with Ning Deyou, Qinong and others who were worried.

After rushing up to the evening hall, Guo An was on time to leave the office again.

When Guo An left, the clerks of the six rooms, the head of the third shift, and the inspectors in the Wanping County Yamen got together.

"Ding Hufang, what did the county lord and you go out of the city with the yellow book and the fish scale book today?"

"Inspect the household registration of the fields one by one, look at the agricultural tools used in the cultivated land, and then ask about the situation of each household..." Ding Deyou said helplessly.

"What is the county official doing?"

"That's right, King Yan just ordered me to wait until the prefectures and counties of Beiping Prefecture reclaimed [-] hectares of land. As a dignified county magistrate, he didn't care about such a big matter, and even stooped down to ask about the status of some households in Jiahu. What use can it be?"

"Ding Hufang, you are the one who communicates the most with that Guo Xianzun in the whole yamen, do you know what that Guo Xianzun is up to?"

Ding Deyou smiled wryly, "Ding is ashamed, I was almost exhausted and paralyzed during this trip, and I didn't have the time to think about what this county lord wants to do. Maybe only he knows!"

"Hey, maybe this county lord wants to thoroughly investigate the yellow book and the fish scale book?"

Suddenly, Qi Nong, the scribe in the workshop, seemed to have noticed something, with a look of surprise.

"What, thoroughly investigate the Yellow Book and Fish Scale Book?"

Immediately, the expressions of the group of scribes changed drastically, their eyes were full of worry, they quickly looked around and gathered together again.

"Could it be, what did the county venerable hear when he was the lord last year?"

"It's absolutely impossible. In the past year, none of the officials in the county government approached this Boss!"

"Then this county lord wants to establish his prestige by thoroughly investigating the Yellow Book and the Fish Scale Book?"

"This matter is not right. I heard that the county lord seems to be from a big gentry family. He should know the tricks between the yellow book and the fish scale book. Moreover, he has just been promoted to the county lord and has no confidant foundation. How dare he do this Break with us?"

"Then what does the magistrate mean?"

"Are you warning me to wait?"

"It's possible..."

"..."

No matter how the officials in the county government guessed and discussed, but now the county magistrate and master book of the entire Wanping county government have not yet been completed, it is all a group of officials, and he is the only official.

Every day, Guo An took different officials out of the city to inspect the various Lijiajia.

After that, in the fields of Jiajiali, chatting with the Lichang, Jiachang, and Liangchang who rushed over, it was a bit leisurely!

After half a month, Guo An had a general understanding of the entire Wanping County.

Similarly, the chiefs of Li, Jia, and grain under the entire Wanping County also had a vague impression of Guo An, the newly appointed county magistrate.

However, many people still do not understand Guo An's actions.

Yan Palace.

After listening to Li Wang's report again, Zhu Di's face was dark.

"It's been half a month, and this guy Guo An is still wandering around the Jiali under the administration of Wanping County, ignoring the [-] hectares of fertile land that the king asked to reclaim. Does he still want to be the county magistrate?"

"Your Highness, Guo An has the guts to put His Highness's order behind him. It's really abominable. In the end, I will bring someone to bring that Guo An and let him give His Highness an explanation!"

Li Wang bowed his hand to invite Ying.

Zhu Di glared at Li Wang below, then looked at the great monk beside him, "I don't know if the mage can guess what Guo An's intention is after doing so much?"

Hearing this, Dao Yan frowned slightly, stroked his beard subconsciously, and after pondering for a moment, he cupped his hands towards Zhu Di.

"Reporting to Your Highness, the monk guessed that this move by Guo Zhixian should be to know all the Lijiajia in Wanping County like the back of his hand. As for the fact that there has been no movement for so long, it should be to wait for the imperial court to fill up all the official positions in Wanping County. !"

"Those officials in Wanping County haven't made up yet?" Zhu Di turned to look at Li Wang below.

Li Wang quickly replied: "Reporting to Your Highness, not only the magistrates and masters of Wanping County Yamen have not made up, even some magistrates in Daxing County, Miyun County, Huairou County, and Tongzhou have not made up. together!"

"What do the officials do? It's been so long, why can't even the people-friendly officials from these prefectures and counties in Beiping Mansion be filled?" Zhu Di was furious.

Li Wang hesitated for a while, but still replied: "Your Highness, I heard that it seems that because of the Guo Huan case not long ago, many students and officials felt that the court was unfair and killed innocent people indiscriminately, while others were afraid of becoming officials. .

Therefore, after so many days, not only the official vacancies in Beiping Mansion have not been filled, but even many official positions in the capital have not been filled! "

Zhu Di's expression was even more furious, "They are so brave, dare to be dissatisfied with the father?"

"Amitabha!"

On the side, Great Monk Daoyan couldn't help but close his eyes and recite the Buddha's name in a low voice!
"Hmph, regardless of other places, Beiping Mansion is not only my king's vassal state, but also shoulders the important task of fighting against the Northern Yuan Tartars and supplying hundreds of thousands of Northern troops, so there can be no delay.

Tomorrow, Zhu Xiangguo will once again pass on the king's order to the chief envoy of Beiping. No matter what, he must first make up the prefects and counties of the prefectures and counties in Beiping Prefecture within one month. "Zhu Di said coldly.

"Yes, Your Highness!"

Zhu Fu responded hastily.

……

Simultaneously.

Throughout the entire Beiping Mansion, rumors spread that many students were unwilling to be officials and officials were unwilling to be promoted.

On this day, Guo An brought Guo Erniu to the county government office. Ning Deyou, Qi Nong and other six-room scribes were already waiting.

Although they don't understand why this Guo Xianzun wants to abuse himself like that, running out of the city every day regardless of the wind and rain.However, after a long time, they all liked the behavior of this Guo Xianzun.

The county venerable just ran out every day, and would not interfere with the government affairs of the county government for several days.

Then as long as the county lord leaves the city, the entire county government will be completely up to them.

However, to the confusion of the officials and servants in the county government, the county official didn't even have any intention of calling their Liufang out of the city after finishing their work early in the morning.

Before the clerk of the sixth room stepped forward to inquire, they heard a voice that was both unfamiliar and somewhat familiar to them.

"Today, ascend to the hall!"

"Ascension?"

All the officials were taken aback for a moment, and then their faces were filled with astonishment.

Then, when he remembered something, he turned pale with fright.

All the county magistrates in the Ming Dynasty basically had to be promoted to three halls in the morning, middle and evening. This was the main job of the county magistrates in the Ming Dynasty.

The morning hall is from Mao to Chen. At this time, all the grain chiefs, li chiefs, and armor chiefs under the rule must stand on both sides of the corridor below the corridor in order of status, and report matters to the county magistrate.

The middle hall is from the time of noon to the end of the day. It is mainly for the magistrates of the prefectures and counties to inquire about lawsuits and handle official business!
In the evening hall, from Shenshi to Youshi, the magistrates of the prefectures still clear up the lawsuits, review the prisoners, and then summarize the official duties of the day. After the work is done, they can beat the drums and leave the hall!

However, since Guo An took office as the county magistrate, after finishing counting Mao every day, he took the six house servants to wander around the village of Jiali, and he would not be promoted at all.

Therefore, under the influence of Guo An, those Jia chiefs, Li chiefs, and food chiefs have been used to waiting for this county magistrate in the fields of each family in the past few days!
