Beside the study room of the East Palace that day, the summer sun was like a burning fire, gradually making people feel restless. Fan Zhongyan unconsciously took another sip of tea and declined instinctively, saying: "Your Highness loves you wrongly, and I am not talented enough and virtuous..."
Prince Xiao Yi didn't take it to heart at all, "I have said before that the sky is high and the emperor is far away. The land of Qiongzhou is thousands of miles away from Chang'an, the capital, just like Mobei."
"Now, when Daqian is officially developing and growing, you have heard about the importance of the Maritime Silk Road in the past few months in the court, and you must be very clear in your heart."
"If there are too many, I won't say anything."
"Lingnan Road has been a semi-civilized place since ancient times, and the western part of Lingnan Road is home to many Liao people."
"But now, because the west and north are located on the plateau, there is too little cultivated land, and they are also a land of foreigners that have been recovered. If we want to permanently solve the hidden dangers of the northern barbarians, we still have to migrate."
"The development of Lingnan Road is the top priority. If this task is left to others, I will not worry about it. Only if I leave it to you can I feel at ease."
Fan Zhongyan finally nodded and said: "Your Highness thinks highly of me, and I will definitely do my best to develop Lingnan Road for Daqian."
This man is also a historical figure, and he also advocated reform, but like most reformers, he touched the cake of the scholar-officials, and the emperor did not have a very high reputation, and was completely a puppet controlled by the scholar-officials, so the reform naturally Failed.
But after all, he is a person with the talents of a prime minister, and he is extremely loyal, and he can completely delegate power.
What Xiao Yi is doing now is to delegate the imperial power to these trustworthy ministers and let them roll up their sleeves and work hard.
Wait until later, and then slowly restrict their authority to form a passive and stable environment.
That is to say, no matter how hard and tired the people are, no matter how ambitious some people are, they must all be within one rule.
Unless all those in power are incompetent, or the country's development has encountered a bottleneck, and the contradictions have reached an insoluble level, eventually leading to the country's decline.
Locking politics in the cage of the system.
It would also allow Da Qian to go forward for more than a few hundred years.
Just the words Fan Zhongyan were the reason why Prince Xiao Yi dared to let him go to Lingnan, and continued: "Well, when I go to Lingnan, the first thing is to develop Qiongzhou Wharf and rely on Qiongzhou Wharf to drive the development of Lingnan Road. "
“If you want to be rich, build roads first.”
"Qiongzhou, Guangzhou, Jiangxia, Jingzhou, Xiangyang, Nanyang, Luoyang, Chang'an, this is a route."
"Qiongzhou, Nanning, Guiyang, Yuzhou, Hanzhong, this is another route."
"After you go to Lingnan Road, you will be responsible for repairing, widening and paving these two lines with cement."
Fan Zhongyan answered honestly: "Here."
In the last court meeting before the holiday, Prince Xiao Yi announced the personnel appointment and dismissal order:
Fan Zhongyan, the censor in the Censor Hall, was appointed as the Xuanfu envoy of Lingnan Road, and he was assigned to the four states of Guangxi, Guangdong, Yunnan and Guiyang.
The former Xuanfu envoy of Lingnan Road immediately retired and went back to his hometown to fish with his title.
Wen Tianxiang, the newly promoted number one scholar, was appointed as the censor to patrol the censorship station.
Zhang Taiyue, the minister, also retired, and the new minister was Han Yu.
Then, there were the Xuanfu envoys of the Thirteenth Daqian Road, and they were also adjusted. The two Xuanfu envoys from the southeast were moved to the northwest, and the Xuanfu envoys from the northwest were moved to the southwest.
There were also adjustments to the border army. Yue Hongling's Yulin army went directly to Xiliang, seemingly intending to resist Tibet.
An Zijun's Xiaowei army went to Ulancha and replaced Di Qing's army.
After Di Qing's army came back, it began to disarm. It had suffered heavy losses in several battles, and now it is not full.
But some of the soldiers had injuries on their bodies. These people lost half their lives after coming down to the Northland for one or two winters.
These people should replenish the local team of delinquents and become local delinquents, responsible for the pursuit, inspection, and protection of a state or county.
The bad guys are actually equivalent to the policemen in Xiao Yi's previous life. They obey the orders of the county lieutenant and hunt down some criminal thieves and murderers.
After all, these bad guys came from the military, and they were all heroes who fought on the battlefield. They were a bit overqualified to deal with some gangsters and the like.
However, the army must be dismantled. They have injuries on their bodies, some of which are serious. They are suitable for recuperating locally rather than freezing at the border.
After Di Qing's army is disarmed, it will definitely need to add fresh blood, and then train for a few months, waiting for the next transfer.
Good guy, a series of personnel arrangements are enough to shock the court.
Previously, in order to maintain the consistency of the court's policies and in response to the outstanding governance performance of the six ministries and nine ministers in the previous years, Xiao Yi had always maintained a tolerant attitude towards the struggle for power some time ago.
But this time, he finally showed his authority, the authority of the prince who destroyed Xixia and pacified Mengyuan.
The night was like water, and the sound of bang bang came from outside. In the backyard of the old house of Zhang Jiuling, the patriarch of the Three Dynasties, which had been passed down for four or five generations, beside a bamboo forest and on the winding corridor, the white-faced Zhang Jiuling looked helplessly. Prince Xiao Yi then made up his mind to come from home to have a meal, and he was used to it.
Xiao Yi insisted that I'm not embarrassed, it's others who are embarrassed, and said directly: "I'm sorry, come to Pushan Gong's house to hide."
Listen to this.
In the past few days, I have asked a minister and a Xuanfu envoy to retire and return home, mobilized several Xuanfu envoys, transferred border troops, started disarmament, started various big and small actions, and almost caused a disaster. It was not you who caused the earthquake in the country and the country.
However, Zhang Jiuling was a veteran of the Three Dynasties, and his character had already collapsed before his eyes without changing his expression. While practicing his favorite backgammon with His Highness the Crown Prince, he said: "The old minister looked at it coldly. Your Highness wants to develop Lingnan with the power of the whole country." Dao, but now people are thinking hard and finally have a chance to recuperate. We are also controlling floods, building roads, and doing this and that. There are too many things to do, and it may mess up the regulations, so it is better to slow down."
Well, I originally wanted to hide and be quiet, but I didn’t expect that Zhang Jiuling, an old man who was over 60 years old, also wanted to admonish him. This was because he wanted to be clean. Xiao Yi refused to give in and insisted on the chess piece: "I have something to do. Doing is better than having nothing to do. As the saying goes, if you are full and warm, you can think about winning, have enough food and clothing, and have nothing to do. I always want to work hard and make progress, but I don’t want to do anything, and I can’t think of anything I can do. Then I have to show it. If you want to make progress, you must make some achievements, and you will be rewarded for your merits. This is the only criterion for promoting talents."
Zhang Jiuling lost one son and said: "His Highness is well-known throughout the world for being wise and appointing people on their merits. The government and the public have also understood that only by hard work can you be appreciated. You will definitely find ways to do things and study hard."
"It's like learning something new. Your Highness has put forward many ideas. It takes time to slowly verify them. There will always be a result."
"What Daqian needs now is a slow development process."
"It is easy to break through hard work. The previous dynasty carried out large-scale construction projects, recruited millions of people as corvees, built the Great Wall, dug canals, and conquered the north three times. The result was called a tyranny."
"Your Highness should bear in mind the lessons learned from the past and guide the future."
