In March in northern Sichuan, the weather is sunny and the spring flowers are blooming, especially the peach blossoms all over the mountains and fields, which are colorful and beautiful.
Moreover, the Jialing River flows majestically around the city, and the green mountains, green waters, blue sky and white clouds make people feel relaxed and happy.
But in the military barracks of Lizhou Camp, the atmosphere was completely different. Among the Sichuan scholar-bureaucrats, some were eager and eager to try, while others were full of worries and could not find a smile on their faces.
The ministers had different thoughts, but they all remained silent. The emperor said nothing, and all the ministers were cautious, waiting for the emperor to speak.
There was silence in the hall. Zhao Hong looked through the memorials one after another with a calm expression on his face. He didn't know what he was thinking.
On the table in front of him, there was a list of the officialdom of Sichuan scholar-officials. The details of the Sichuan scholar-officials were clearly listed on it. The three most prominent families were the Wei Gao family in Pujiang, the Jun'an family in Guang'an, and the Pu family in Kuizhou.
Zhao Hong glanced at Fan Zhong, who was sitting upright below, and nodded slightly, with admiration in his eyes.
Competent officials and mediocre people can be clearly seen at a glance.
In one year, Fan Zhong had thoroughly investigated Sichuan's political situation and investigated every official's crime.
Officials, mediocre officials, corrupt officials, and evil officials all appeared on the page one after another, making him feel a little distracted for a moment.
The world is so big and there are endless corrupt officials. The outrageous amount of greedy ink and the reckless disregard of the law shocked him.
The law is ruthless, but it cannot stop officials from taking bribes and violating the law without scruples. Can the anti-corruption campaign and the strict enforcement of laws and regulations really reverse the situation of corruption?
Zhao Hong glanced at the officials below and motioned to Dong Songchen.
"Your Majesty's decree, where is Uncle Gao Tai, the governor of Lizhou?"
Dong Songchen took a step forward, held Huang Chengcheng's imperial edict, and shouted loudly.
"I'm here!"
Uncle Gao Tai's face turned red, he quickly walked out and knelt on the ground.
No need to ask, this was the emperor's will to promote him.
"Uncle Gao Tai, the magistrate of Lizhou, has outstanding political achievements and is smart and capable. He was promoted to be the transfer envoy to Huaixi and the general magistrate of Luzhou..."
Dong Songchen took the imperial edict and read it.
"I accept the order and thank you!"
Uncle Gao Tai took the imperial edict shivering, stood up, and stepped aside.
All the ministers looked at Uncle Gao Tai with envy, jealousy and hatred in their eyes.
The emperor rewarded Uncle Gao Tai. Is he going to give a big reward to his ministers today?
"His Majesty's decree, where is Wei Wengweng, the general magistrate of Chengdu?"
Dong Songchen took out another imperial edict and shouted.
"I'm here!"
The thin Wei Wengweng walked out ignorantly. He was in his forties, and indeed he looked somewhat similar to his cousin Wei Liaoweng, the Minister of War.
"...Wei Weng, the general magistrate of the Chengdu Prefecture, is an honest and upright official, simple in administration and low in taxes, and has a strong political reputation. He was promoted to Minister of Rites and took office soon."
Dong Songchen took the imperial edict and read it sonorously and forcefully.
After Dong Songchen finished reading, he handed the imperial edict to Wei Wengweng, who was kneeling on the ground with a flushed face.
"Wei Qing, after I inspect the defense of Shukou, I will return to the southeast. If you are willing, you can come back to Lin'an City with me in a few days and take office soon."
Zhao Hong spoke softly to Wei Wenweng with a smile on his face.
The general magistrate of Chengdu Prefecture, Wei Wenweng of the Wei Gao family in Pujiang, was the younger brother of Wei Liaoweng, the Minister of War, and he was also an honest and self-disciplined official.
However, Wei Wengweng was weak and somewhat bookish. Although he was upright, he seemed a bit unfamiliar with practical matters. Perhaps he could better utilize his strengths by taking a job in the Ministry of Rites.
"I thank Your Majesty for your grace!"
Wei Wenweng stood up unsteadily with sweat on his forehead.
For him and the Pujiang Wei Gao family, this was an unexpected surprise.
In the hall, Wei Weng's clan brothers Gao Dingzi and Gao Taishu were all smiling. They were members of the Gao family, and today they were promoted. Jian was in the emperor's heart, and he could be said to be a proud ancestor.
"Weng Weng, I know that you are weak. When you arrive at Lin'an City, I will ask the imperial doctor to take a good look at you so that you can recuperate. Life is short, for the country and the people, Wei Qing must take good care of your health and continue to share your worries for the king!" "
When he was in Jinling, Zhao Hong heard Wei Liaoweng talk about the condition of his clan brother. When he saw him today, he was indeed too thin.
"Your Majesty's grace, I will never die to repay even one of you!"
Wei Wenweng kowtowed a few more times before standing up.
The emperor's kindness and thoughtfulness are hard to cherish even in death.
"Your Majesty's decree, where is Gao Dingzi, the commander-in-chief of Sichuan?"
Dong Songchen then took out another imperial edict and shouted again.
"I'm here!"
Gao Dingzi was shocked and quickly came out and knelt down.
The emperor has promoted two of his brothers today, is he the third one?
If you think about it carefully, he has experienced a decline in Sichuan's scholarly culture.
All the ministers in the hall were shocked. Are they going to be promoted from one discipline to three?
"Gao Dingzi, the commander-in-chief of Sichuan, has an outstanding political voice and is smart and capable. It is necessary to implement the New Deal on Liangzhe West Road. He promoted Gao Dingzi to be the pacifier of Liangzhe West Road and the Shaoyin of Lin'an Prefecture, so that he can implement the New Deal on Liangzhe West Road. To change the rampant corruption and overstaffing in Zhejiang..."
Dong Songchen read aloud, and Gao Dingzi knelt on the ground, feeling dizzy for a moment.
Zhejiang West Road Comfort Envoy and Lin'an Prefecture Shaoyin, is he going to rise to the top?
"Gao Qing, don't you dare to take on this important responsibility?"
Zhao Hong asked softly. Gao Dingzi woke up from a dream, sweating profusely, and kowtowed repeatedly.
"I thank Your Majesty for your grace! I will repay Your Majesty with all my heart and soul!"
Liangzhe West Road is where the capital of the country is located, including Lin'an Prefecture. From the general commander of Sichuan, to the comfort envoy at the emperor's feet, the next step is to be the governor of Lin'an, which is a world of difference.
Three blessings! The three brothers of the Wei Gao family were promoted together, but this will become a legend for the ages.
"Get up. Let us, the king and the ministers, know each other, work together as one, and do something good for the people of the Song Dynasty."
The common man is not guilty, but he is guilty of carrying the jade. In order to break the ice in Sichuan and ensure the implementation of the New Deal in Sichuan, the only choice was to transfer the Wei Gao brothers and arrange them in this way.
Originally, he wanted to transfer another general of the Wei Gao family, Gao Jia, the magistrate of Mianzhou. Later, I felt that it was too far-fetched and that it was too much, so I gave up.
"I thank Your Majesty for your grace!"
Zhao Hong signaled, and Dong Songchen stepped forward and helped Gao Dingzi, who was blushing, up.
"Mr. Gao, congratulations!"
Fan Zhong smiled and bowed his hands, but was secretly surprised in his heart.
The emperor acted vigorously and resolutely, and did what he said. He was already clearing the way for Sichuan to implement the New Deal.
Gao Dingzi was transferred as the pacifier of the two Zhejiang West Roads. It seems that the emperor was extremely dissatisfied with Wu Jing, the former pacifier of the two Zhejiang West Roads and Lin'an Prefecture, otherwise he would not have been placed in this way.
Lin'an Prefecture Yin Wu Jing was the emperor's confidant. The emperor was so brave in order to implement the New Deal smoothly!
"Mr. Gao, congratulations! Congratulations!"
Guo Zhengsun, Yu Jie and other generals came forward to congratulate him.
"Don't dare, don't dare!"
Gao Dingzi felt comfortable, kept giving in, and felt a little calmer.
The emperor's continuous transfer of Sichuan officials to other state capitals in the Song Dynasty obviously had comprehensive considerations. He has an upright personality. Although he has doubts about the transfer of Sichuan officials, he must accept the emperor's decree and is more happy than worried.
The Wei Gao family is famous all over the world, and his brothers have all risen to great heights. They can show their hearts for revenge. This is the most worthy thing to celebrate. As for Sichuan, perhaps it can no longer be chaotic.
After all, Sichuan was the Sichuan of the Song Dynasty, not an independent kingdom.
Everyone congratulated him one after another, all filled with envy, jealousy and hatred.
The Wei Gao family in Pujiang was favored by the emperor and was really going to become famous all over the world and go down in history.
After a while, the ministers became quiet. Zhao Hong turned his eyes to the ministers in the hall, and his voice suddenly became cold and stern.
"Pu Hong, the pacifier of Kuizhou Road, do you know your guilt?"
