Su Ziji stayed in the cabin for a while and then went to have a meal.
Not long after leaving, there were servants scrubbing the corridor, and when they arrived at the cabin, they saw no one around, and their figure flashed, and they entered lightly.
Su Ziji once ordered: "In this room, every piece of paper and folded documents must be sorted by myself. No matter whether it is important or not, no private viewing or private touching is allowed."
It was obvious that this man had broken the rules, but he was not in a hurry, and everyone was arranged. Within a moment, no one came.
The servant then searched around the cabin, and his eyes fell on a bookshelf against the wall.
This person has been to this cabin several times, and he clearly remembers the display and furnishings in the cabin. He even remembers how many books are on the bookshelf and which book is placed in what position, so that he can check it every day. Let’s see what Taisun did in this cabin.
There was an additional volume of books wrapped in yellow cloth on the top shelf, which immediately caught this person's attention.
Thinking of the information he had just received, the man immediately went over, quickly took down the book, opened it and saw that it was indeed a Brahma Sutra.
If your guess is correct, this is the Brahma Sutra that the monk in the small temple just gave to Taisun.
Could it be that there is something special about this Brahma Sutra being given to the grandson by a monk?
This person hurriedly checked the Brahma Sutra, but turned over from beginning to end, and focused on checking the spine and the thickness of the pages, but found nothing.
Could it be that the grandson's visit to the small temple was really just a whim?
And the monks in the small temple were just trying to please the grandson?
If you think about it carefully, this may be a big deal. After all, he is a grandson, a prince of a country, and a monk in a small temple. If the opportunity had not come, he might not be able to see his true face in his whole life. Finally, he finally met and talked to her. , it is not incomprehensible to want to leave a good impression on the grandson.
Hey, but in this case, wouldn’t there be nothing to gain from following this path?
After checking it, the man rewrapped the Brahma Sutra and put it back. He looked at the cabin again and couldn't help but shake his head.
"Grandson, the magistrates of Liangyang, Juanwu, Zhongyin, Gushi and other counties are asking for an audience. They are waiting on the shore." Su Ziji returned to the boat hall where outsiders were received. Wen Xunpeng had been waiting for him and hurriedly came up to say , and whispered: "It has something to do with Zhang Dai."
"So fast?" Su Ziji was startled, looked up and thought about it, and said, "Let them meet one by one."
"Yes!" Wen Xunpeng went out and ordered.
All the officials in the county have seen it, and the magistrates from nearby counties also came to pay their respects.
This is an open and honest request for an audience. Su Zi is a grandson, so he can't say no, and even if he can, he won't, because his big plan must be completed by these people.
Su Ziji sat down, took a sip of tea, and took a stack of greeting cards from the case. His grandson arrived, and the nearby county magistrate came to greet him in person, while others from further afield also sent greeting cards.
The above content is written sincerely and respectfully, and the article is beautiful. Although each article is different, after reading each official document, Su Ziji only read the first line when he read the next article, and he could almost memorize it silently. The following content appears.
They are all the same and have very false content.
But it cannot be said that this kind of greeting is wrong. After all, this ceremony is to clarify and consolidate one's status and righteousness.
Just listen to an official, wearing a seventh-grade official uniform and a black gauze hat, bowing in front of the door and announcing loudly: "Yu Ming, the magistrate of Liangyang County, came from Jinshi, and came to see the great grandson!"
"Get up!"
"Thank you, grandson!" Yu Ming stood up and bowed before Fang came in cautiously.
"Yu Ming, I have heard about you. I heard that you have always managed well in the county. Last time, the officials rated it as superior - sit down." Su Ziji waved his hand: "Yu Ming, your county Have you handed over the account books for the warehouse and the shipment to the granary?"
"This is my duty. With the salary from the court, I have to fulfill my duties as a parent official in Baili."
"As for the county treasury and the account books that were transported to the granary, they have been handed over and are outside!" Yu Ming leaned forward and answered, paused, and said, "My grandson is busy with everything, but I still have something to report."
"Duty is the rare thing - just say it!"
"Yes!" When he said this, Yu Ming's face was full of solemnity: "Master Zhang used imperial envoys to seal off the seven warehouses. I wonder if my grandson knew about it?"
In the place where the country was founded, the spirit was still there. Su Ziji glanced at Yu Ming, took a sip of tea, and said lightly: "Not yet, what's wrong?"
When Yu Ming heard this, he knew that this was not Taisun's idea. He immediately breathed a sigh of relief and stood up and kowtowed: "Your Majesty, this is a big mistake. Please stop it immediately."
"Oh, what's going on?" Su Ziji frowned, stood up and took a few steps to ask.
Yu Ming knew that his grandson didn't understand details, so he paused and said, "If I say this, grandson, you will understand. There are one thousand, three hundred and forty-seven people in this county who eat the emperor's food."
"There are one hundred and thirty-one people who have achieved fame and are scholar or above."
"There are eleven others who are family members of those who died for the country and will also receive a share of rations."
"Although these people's expenditures are paid by the county treasury, the county treasury is also paid by the feudal treasury."
"Master Zhang used imperial envoys to block the grain depot, which caused problems in the turnover of this county, county and even Zhili."
"That's all. According to the imperial system, food comes from the government, not the army. It is directly under the control of hundreds of thousands of troops. The soldiers also allocate food from the treasury. Once there is a shortage, someone incites it, and the consequences will be disastrous. I hope Taisun Mingjian!" "
Yu Ming said, nodding repeatedly.
Su Ziji couldn't help but be moved. He originally thought that this person might be the emperor's man, but he was not. He was a knowledgeable direct minister. Even if he had selfish motives, this kind of knowledge was still rare.
He immediately wrote down the person's name, looked outside, and after a while he frowned and said, "Are you exaggerating?"
"In general, it is true that the military grain, official salary, and even the academic grain for scholars and candidates, as well as the pension for those who died for the country, all come from the feudal granary, but counties also have their own small warehouses."
"What Taisun said is that according to the regulations, there is enough food for three months."
"However, there are many things in the county, and many of them cost money. It is common for people to misappropriate things first. Now that we have stopped, I'm afraid we won't be able to continue."
Su Ziji felt clear in his heart, knowing that this was the truth, and he was afraid that it was also the reason for the plot against him.
Su Ziji interrupted Yu Ming coldly: "You don't have to say it. This is actually not Zhang Dai's fault. It's your counties and counties that work hard to support each other, which leads to the shortage of food."
"Yes, but..." Yu Ming was sweating on his forehead, but something went wrong, and the superiors wanted to hold him accountable regardless of the reason.
If the grandson has nothing to do and is waiting for an official position, all of them will lose their official positions. If the incident happens in their own county, their lives will not be saved.
"One thing comes to another." Su Ziji would not be a good person for free, and sneered: "Gu Shang is young. Although he is an imperial envoy, he actually watches the government more."
Then he said: "Zhang Dai and others are the actual people in charge, and they have independent will and king's order flag. I can move the document and let him consider it carefully, but I can't give orders."
"Instead of racking your brains to find an orphan, you should go back and think about how to solve the problems caused by the misappropriation deficit."
"Otherwise, the Three-Child King's Law will be set up just for you and others."
As soon as he said this, Yu Ming had already sweated through his clothes and stood up. Su Ziji said something, agreed, and then sadly stepped back. But just as he stepped back, he saw Wen Xunpeng coming towards him and waving his hand: "Master Yu, let's go to the side cabin to talk in detail."
Yu Ming was startled and thoughtful.
