After Jiaozhi returned to Jiaozhou, Lantian would completely change the model of the scholar family, which would require a large number of officials to govern, but it would take time to train in schools and assess and select officials.
Lantian called Jiang Wan to discuss and decided to transfer existing officials from Cangwu and Yulin counties to make up for the temporary talent gap by combining old and new officials.
"Gong Yan seems worried?" Jiang Wan frowned and was looked at by Lan Tian.
Jiang Wan's face was full of bitterness: "The government's official transfer method can indeed solve the urgent need, but it also leaves many hidden dangers. It is natural for officials to be transferred from a small and remote county in the forest to serve as an official in the wealthy place of Jiaozhi, but for example, Guangxin Ben If a wealthy city transfers them to poor places such as Hepu and Jiuzhen, there may be resistance. After all, the large-scale relocation of families and families is a bit ruthless when you think about it. I am afraid that the officials will not have a good time these few months."
Lan Tian replied with a serious face: "It is said that serving as an official benefits one party. They do not become officials to enjoy the blessings. Only by being able to manage the poor mountains and rivers well can they be considered capable. Picky and selective ideas will not work. In the future, the flow of officials will become normalized, especially They are positions of real power such as county magistrate, county magistrate, and county captain. If you stay in a certain place for a long time, corruption will easily breed, and the landlords will gradually become powerful. This is not good for the country and the local area. You don't want to pay the state and then send out scholars, right?"
"The words of the emperor made Wan Mao suddenly enlightened, but those in power will inevitably have some privileges. Because officials have different levels of knowledge, their governance methods and personnel are also very different. Frequent movement may not be conducive to local governance. If control is loosened, it will become a worry for you. , but I am worried about overstaffing. Now that the appointment and evaluation rights of officials have been transferred from the county to the unified jurisdiction of the state officials and officials, the pressure on the officials may be the greatest among the six officials."
Lan Tian stroked his beard and nodded, "It's okay if you are under a lot of pressure. When you are an official, you must have a correct attitude. Think about how the food and clothing are paid for. If you encounter resistance to the transfer, you can let them leave the yamen and allocate the land to eat by themselves. , the existence of officials is to investigate and deal with corrupt officials, whip lazy officials, kick out mediocre officials, and select capable ministers. You know I am not a harsh person. As long as the people under my rule have a prosperous life and the rulers and the people enjoy and enjoy together, it doesn’t matter. , but the people are poor and the officials are rich, and the people are poor and the officials are lazy."
"I already know the ideal of the ruler and the people getting rich together, and the rotation list will be released as soon as possible. In fact, these initiatives of yours are a good thing. The King of Hanzhong has now occupied Chang'an, and he will probably ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor soon, right? I'm worried about you He will be transferred from Jiaozhou and returned to the imperial court." Jiang Wan expressed his worries.
Lan Tian patted Jiang Wan on the shoulder and comforted him: "Gong Yan, don't think nonsense. First of all, there is no peace in the world now, and Jiangdong is still threatened by Jingzhou and Jiaozhou; secondly, the king is assisted by Kong Ming, Shi Yuan, Xiao Zhi and other virtuous ministers. Should I go to Chang'an?" It doesn’t matter. In the end, I can tell you clearly that no matter whether I am in Jiaozhou or not, all current policies will not change."
Jiang Wan nodded, "Then I'm relieved. Now it's time to deal with Jiang Dong, right? Sun Quan is addicted to treachery and sneak attacks. We have to find a better excuse."
"Hahaha, I don't have to worry about Gongyan, I have my own concerns." Lan Tianxin said it was too easy to make excuses, and I would let Sun Quan take the initiative to deliver it.
Dong Dong Dong, while the two were talking, Gao Yuan knocked on the door and walked in, whispering a few words in Lan Tian's ear.
"Huh? It's really interesting. Gongyan, come with me to visit Xing Cao."
"Wei." Jiang Wan stood up and nodded.
There were more than 200 members of the Shi family. They were implicated in Shi Hui's rebellion and they returned to Guangzhou with the trapped troops for trial.
The results of Xing Cao's trial have just come out. Except for Shi Hui, Shi Yi, and Shi Kuang, who were sentenced to execution, the rest of the implicated family members were sentenced to confiscation of property, and all were punished by being exiled to Zhuya Island.
The Shi family members had originally made up their minds to die, but now that they heard such a mild trial result, everyone hugged each other in the prison and cried with joy.
Shi Yi and Shi Kuang understood the principle of winning a king or losing a bandit. Since other family members could be saved, father and son sat silently in the prison, waiting to be taken to the execution ground. However, the main criminal Shi Hui seemed to be crazy. He refused to confess in the confession. He signed and stamped his name, and roared and knocked on the cell door to see Lan Tian.
When the Shi family members in the left and right prisons saw this, they all stood up and advised Shi Hui An to die. In order for the entire Shi family not to resist, they were worried that the judge would change the verdict.
Shi Hui angrily insulted the clan members. Finally, at the strong request of the Shi family members, the jailer changed Shi Hui to a dark single room. Shi Hui did not calm down because of this. He kept shouting and asking to see Lan Tian.
Lan Tian attaches great importance to the case of the Shi family, because the trial result comes from Lan Tian's instruction, otherwise the Shi family will lose more than three heads, so Xu Shuang asked Lan Tian to torture Cao.
Not long after, Lan Tian and Jiang Wan arrived at Xingcao.
Jiang Wan read the files and the verdict and curiously asked Xu Shuang, the person in charge: "Why are you so tolerant to the Shi family? To eliminate the influence of the Shi family in Jiaozhou, the best way is to eradicate the roots. To put it mildly, you can exile to other states and counties, but Now Xing Cao has only sentenced three people to death for treason, and he has also exiled the Shi family members to Zhuya. Shi Yan, Shi Zhi, and Shi Ke are all still there. Be careful that the wild fire will not burn out, and the spring breeze will blow again."
Xu Shuang did not respond to Jiang Wan's doubts. Lan Tian picked up the topic and said, "Killing to stop a war is a bad idea. My attitude towards the scholar family can explain a lot. Gong Yanqian immediately arranged for Lingnan News to take action on this matter." Describe it in a large format, and then publish it in many supplementary issues.”
"The Lord's prestige is very high in Jiaozhou, so there is no need to use the Shi family to gain public support, right?" Jiang Wan frowned.
"The "Lingnan News" is distributed normally in Jiaozhou. All supplements of the newspaper will be handed over to the Jiaozhou Chamber of Commerce, and they will be distributed to the cargo ships returning to Jiangdong." Lantian answered with a smile.
"You can save me this," Jiang Wan suddenly realized.
Lan Tian wants to use his attitude towards the scholar family to disintegrate the Jiangdong noble family's view of Lan Tian, and even disintegrate the unity within the Sun family. Once the two families officially go to war in the future, how many of the supporters standing behind Sun Quan will choose to wait and see?
Jiang Wan stared at Lan Tian in surprise, thinking to himself, your layout ability is too terrifying, isn't it? I have to ask someone to write a good article in "Lingnan News", maybe it can help Fujun.
Under the leadership of Xu Shuang, Lan Tian and Jiang Wan came to the claustrophobic dungeon to meet Shi Hui.
With his military badges all messed up, Lan Tian's eyes suddenly shone when he saw him. He rushed to the cell door in a sprint, grabbed the doorpost with both hands and showed a ferocious expression.
Lan Tian said contemptuously: "I heard that you are dissatisfied and want to see me? Haven't you heard that the winner is the king and the loser is the bandit? What exactly are you dissatisfied with?"
"The Dragon Formation Army was defeated by the trapped troops. I, Shi Hui, am convinced. I am now facing the same fate as others. However, the punishment of Jiaozhou Xingcao is unfair. Why did the Shi family only kill three of us?" Shi Hui roared.
Lan Tian was immediately amused, "What's the matter? Are you too young? Are you trying to get others to back you up?"
