Crowned the New Han Dynasty

Chapter 321 is finally here!

In the past few days, things in Taile Department have been extremely heavy. In order to re-operate from an idle department, not only the personnel have to get used to it again, but many files and objects also have to be prepared again.

At this time, when there is chaos both internally and externally, and when people's hearts are in a state of flux, if I hear that someone is spying outside and waiting for an opportunity, I will naturally feel uneasy.

"Shangguan really didn't think enough about Xu Ji's matter," Zhou Ao, who was also busy sorting out files and books, couldn't help but shake his head, "If nothing else, now is the time to employ people. The manpower of the Yamen is already insufficient, but now that one person is missing, it is really troublesome to distract others."

While he was talking, a stack of files in his hand was accidentally touched and scattered all over the floor, making his head as big as a bucket.

It stands to reason that the Taile Department was a little busy in the past, but it didn't have many of the manpower it should have. It was just because it was too lazy in the past, and Chen Zhi's requirements were too strict, and there was too much backlog. To straighten things out in a short period of time, a large number of manpower must be available, and with the lingering power of directly dismissing Xu Ji, even subordinate officials like Dong Xu and Zhou Ao had to join in the effort——

Although they all felt that Chen Zhi's method of dismissal was ill-considered, before Chen Zhi was transferred, they had to act carefully to avoid such a thing happening to them.

"Oh, no matter how I put this file, it doesn't feel right." On the side, Gao Jiang became more and more dizzy after sorting it out for a long time. Their kind of arrangement is not just about laying out the files and books, but also turning over them. Read the content to make a record, so that it will be more convenient to refer to it in the future.

But it will be convenient in the future, but it is extremely troublesome now. After sorting it out for a while, these people felt irritable in their hearts.

On the other hand, the Horse Selection seemed to be very calm. He was reading and sorting out the files and was able to hold his breath. But after a while, he said: "Starting from yesterday, several other ministers have gradually started to collect information about music, chess skills and other matters." The dispute has been handed over to our Taiyue Department. As well as the upcoming prisoner dedication ceremony, we are also responsible for the singing class and other matters. These things all require experience. If it is a normal situation, you can ask Taiyue Ling borrowed one or two people from other government offices, but he was afraid that others would worry about the Xu family's affairs and was unwilling to lend them."

To be fair, this concern is very normal, and other people also resonate with it, but they don't know that the Taichang has given instructions not to allow the various government offices to hold back on this matter.

Soon, Gao Jiang, who was tired of sorting out the files, threw a file in front of him and complained: "Speaking of which, what is Tai Leling doing?" Let all of us take action and sort out the files. Oh my God, he was just sitting in the yamen and didn’t come out, didn’t even look at me. Isn’t that unjustifiable? "

Dong Xu's eyes widened: "Be careful what you say!" Next to the officials and servants in the Yamen, he criticized the Shangguan. This matter was not safe. As Tai Lecheng, since he heard it, he couldn't pretend that nothing happened.

However, as soon as his voice fell, footsteps could be heard outside, and then Chen Zhi was seen walking over.

As soon as Chen Zhi came, everyone immediately looked solemn and did not dare to speak. Gao Jiang's expression was even more stiff, with a trace of fear in his eyes. He was obviously worried that what he just said would be overheard by Chen Zhi.

Chen Zhi smiled slightly, took out two pieces of paper, called Dong Xu to him, and handed them to him.

"This is?" Dong Xu looked at the two pieces of paper with confusion on his face.

"I have been reading this collection in the past few days and summarized a set of classification and storage methods. I recorded it on this piece of paper." Chen Zhi first took out one piece, handed it to Dong Xu, then took the second piece and said, "As for this one, it is the personnel and layout of the sacrifice and prisoner offering ceremony, as well as the process and precautions. Take it and call the choir and others over, and let them start preparing and practicing from tomorrow."

"What?" Dong Xu couldn't help but widen his eyes, looking at the two pieces of paper in his hand with a puzzled expression, "The method of classification and storage, as well as the drill matters for sacrifices and prisoner presentation ceremonies?"

He raised his head and looked at Chen Zhi.

"How about the specifics? You can discuss it and improve the details a little. But don't be busy. First put away the files that should be sorted out today, and it won't be too late to discuss it later."

After giving these instructions, Chen Zhi turned around and left neatly, but when he reached the door, he stopped again and turned around and said: "In the past few days, I expect that there will be many academies who will raise some trivial matters. You will All their demands have been collected and summarized, and in five days, I will start to resolve the disputes between Luoyang Academy."

After saying this, he left without looking back.

However, although Chen Zhi's people left, his words still lingered in the hearts of Dong Xu and others, just like throwing a huge stone on a calm lake, causing ripples.

"What do you mean? Does Chen Taile mean that he wants to put an end to the dispute in Luoyang Academy?"

Gao Jiang looked at the others and asked. He felt that he had heard wrong just now. When he got the answer he wanted from the expressions on other people's faces, he shook his head in disbelief.

"How can this kind of thing be cured? It's simply impossible!"

Gao Jiang spoke out the thoughts of others. Whether they were subordinate officials like Dong Xu, Zhou Ao, and Ma Xuan, or simply officials in charge of files, or even the officers who came to help, they all had ordinary thoughts at this time.

This kind of thing cannot be cured!
Among the many academies in Luoyang, their disputes have superficial reasons, conflicts of temperament, and many considerations. There are also conflicts of interest and power behind them, which are just manifested in the form of disputes between academies.It can be said that this is also the result of the upper-level control of the rulers. Many contradictions are guided and expressed in this way to prevent changes that are more difficult to control. To a certain extent, it is an extension of the security of the capital. In this way, However, such an official position as Tai Leling suffered.

It is for this reason that it is considered impossible to cure this situation. Official positions such as Taileling, more often than not, only play the role of mediation, mitigation and delay. This is also the reason why this official position is replaced quickly by new and old ones. .

"Maybe it's the drive of the young people." After being surprised, Dong Xu gave his opinion, and the others nodded in agreement, thinking it was very possible.

It is impossible to cure the problem completely, but some people think it can be cured and calmed down, and then be taught how to behave according to reality.

"If it can really be cured, the imperial court will not agree and block the disputes between the academies. However, the conflicts are not resolved. In the end, they can only break out from other aspects. The problem may be more serious, and it is not just an academic dispute. , The conflict of spirits may be even more fatal." Ma Xuan also had his own opinion and told the key point.

Then, he changed the topic: "However, didn't Tai Leling bring the method of storage and the regulations for the following sacrifices? I don't know what it says and whether it will be useful."

As soon as he said this, he also reminded others. They were stunned by Chen Zhi's last words. Only then did they think of the two pieces of paper. Especially Gao Jiang, who was still complaining before Chen Zhi came over, worried about his criticism. When Chen Zhi heard what he said, he breathed a sigh of relief and became curious again.

"I don't know what kind of method it is, or is it just like the theory of radical cure, just a figment of imagination?" After thinking about it, he walked over, took one from Dong Xu's hand, and started to read it.

While the others slowed down the speed of sorting out the files, they paid attention to the expressions of the two. Soon, they were surprised to find that the expressions of Gao Jiang and Dong Xu were becoming more and more surprised and astonished.

When the two put down the paper one after another and looked at the others, Gao Jiang and others had already gathered around to ask.

"how?"

"This classification method seems simple, but in fact it contains many mysteries. It is divided into categories and each has its own label. The key is that there are connections among adjacent categories. Not only when storing, but also when checking, there will be Much simpler.”

"Is it so magical?" Zhou Ao and others looked surprised when they heard this. Looking at Dong Xu again, they saw Tai Lecheng exhaled slightly, as if a heavy burden had been lifted from his heart. .

"Dong Jun, how are you?" Ma Xuan asked, and he saw some clues on the other person's face.

Dong Xu sighed and then said: "The regulations of Taileling are very thorough and all aspects have been taken into consideration. Even if we want to find out the omissions and fill them up, I'm afraid we won't be able to find them."

"So meticulous?" Even Gao Jiang was surprised. Although the classification and storage method he held in his hand was exquisite, it surprised him at most, and it was only a small trick, but what Dong Xu mentioned But it's not that simple a question.

"Please take a look, gentlemen."

Dong Xu didn't hesitate and showed the paper in his hand for a few people to look at.

After a few glances, everyone fell silent.

Just now, they were worried about a few things, but Chen Zhi solved two of them unexpectedly.

"This charter alone is not something that ordinary people can write clearly. At least they have to be very clear about the sacrifices and prisoner sacrifices, as well as the powers and duties of each office. But before this Tai Leling I don’t even understand the functions and powers of the Taile Department. How can it be that everything has become clear just in the past few days?” Gao Jiang looked confused.

Dong Xu couldn't help but sigh: "After all, he has a good reputation, so he must still have some skills."

Inexplicably, they suddenly felt that Chen Zhi's words of radical cure just now would also give them a surprise?
However, thinking of the difficulties behind this, they all restrained their thoughts and did not dare to speak out their guesses. After all, the significance of this was extraordinary.

Just when several people were thinking about it, there was another sound of footsteps outside the door, and then they saw a servant from before. He rushed in hurriedly, saw everyone, and shouted: "No, there is an academy." People came to the door and said they wanted Tai Leling to give them a review! Look at that posture, it’s hard to get along with them!”

When everyone heard this, their hearts trembled.

Dong Xu sighed and said, "It's finally here."
