In this way, a policy statement was repeatedly passed around the court for people to watch.
After reading it, the courtiers were all confused and even a little confused.
What is this... all about?
However, when the courtiers with relevant experience in water control saw it, they were immediately shocked.
The source of the flood in Canglan County is actually in Tianyuan County!
It turns out that water can be controlled by returning farmland to forests and grasslands!
Eye-opening, really eye-opening!
"What do you think of this method of controlling water?" Zhang Lang asked, squinting his eyes.
"This..." All the officials looked at each other in shock for a while, not daring to speak.
The main reason is that they have never treated water before, so how do they know the secrets here?
Anyway... From their perspective, it was clearly a flood in Canglan County, but they had to blame it on Tianyuan County, and they had to plant some vegetation. It was really ridiculous.
But...can you say that?
Zhang Lang is the current imperial officer, and the person behind him is the emperor. How could he dare to come up with this strategy if he is not a little sure?
On the contrary, since it can be brought out, it means that this policy has something!
Since they don’t understand, it’s best not to say more.
Otherwise, if you can't tell the truth, you will be accused of being incompetent!
Just when most of the officials looked at each other and were at a loss, a voice suddenly rang out.
"Okay! This strategy is truly the best in the world!"
Hearing this, everyone looked around hurriedly and saw that it was Hong Quan who came from a family of water management!
This person is now Daqian’s authority in water control!
As long as he says yes, then there will definitely be no problem with this policy!
Bang bang bang!
For a time, the court hall was filled with applause and shouts of praise.
"Okay! It's really a rare and good idea!"
"How could someone come up with such a method!"
"The river above the sky, returning farmland to forests and grassland, such an exquisite method, even if I had to learn it for ten more years! I'm afraid I would never be able to figure it out!"
"It's beyond your reach, it's beyond your reach!"
Zhang Lang was naturally happy when he heard this.
"How is it? Mr. Yang?"
When Yang Huai heard this, he snorted coldly and said nothing.
"Mr. Yang, have you forgotten what you just said? A gentleman's words are hard to catch up with!"
Yang Huai's face became increasingly ugly, and finally he had no choice but to sigh and said: "The Yang family is willing to provide 400,000 kilograms of food for this disaster relief."
"The same goes for Wei Chen, and the Duan family is also willing to provide 400,000 catties of grain!"
"Yang family! Yang family too!"
Now that things have reached this point, the situation has become all too obvious.
The five aristocratic family heads are not fools, and they naturally know what it means to assess the situation.
"I still don't know something, I hope Zhang Taiwei can clear up the confusion." Yang Huai said.
"Of course, I am willing to help Lieutenant Zhang clear up his doubts. Just say so." After completing the task assigned by His Majesty, Zhang Lang was naturally overjoyed.
"I wonder which expert could come up with such a method?"
As soon as these words came out, the court fell silent instantly, and everyone pricked up their ears.
Not only Yang Huai wants to know about this matter, they also want to know.
Zhang Lang heard the words, but did not answer immediately. Instead, he looked at Emperor Renxuan who was sitting on the dragon chair, as if he was sleeping regardless of the court.
For some reason, Emperor Renxuan, who had been taking a nap, opened his eyes and looked at Zhang Lang.
"Mr. Yang wants to know, so tell me what I will do."
"Promise!" Zhang Lang saluted respectfully and then said, "This policy is based on the strategy of recruiting talents!"
Recruitment!
As soon as these three words came out, everyone present was shocked.
How could it be a recruitment strategy?
This thing has basically disappeared since the Wu Zong Dynasty.
They didn't even remember that the imperial court had issued relevant decrees. As a result, such a policy that could solve the Canglan flood was just included in the talent recruitment policy?
Child's play!
It’s really too much child’s play!
Yang Huai originally thought that he had been defeated by an emperor like Emperor Renxuan, but he was still convinced.
Who would have thought that he was defeated by Shi Laozi's plan to recruit talents.
For a moment, I was in a daze.
However, the next moment, Zhang Lang glanced at everyone, raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and continued: "Presented by Gu Beichuan, a Huainan native!"
boom!
As soon as these words came out, everyone was in awe, and even thought in their hearts, that's how it is!
Why?
Because they all know Gu Beichuan!
I can't say that I know them all, but at least they have heard of them.
The famous Huainan poet is known as a literary star descended to earth.
He is also a ruthless character who lifts up the Qiandu literary world and beats him with one excellent poem after another!
Of course, these are nothing to these old characters who have been in officialdom for a long time.
What really shocked them was that Gu Beichuan taught ten Jinshi!
And Gu Xingwen, ranked fifth, is actually his biological brother!
So, after all, in the last imperial examination, the top eleven were all related to this guy.
What an honor is this?
I'm afraid it's even better than winning three yuan in a row!
If such a person comes up with such a policy, it is at least more acceptable than if an unknown person comes up with it.
"Your Majesty! According to the laws of our court, those who take over the recruitment strategy and give clear suggestions should be rewarded."
"The Canglan Flood is another difficult disease that has affected our dynasty for nearly a hundred years. This is a great contribution!"
"I affirm that Your Majesty is extremely gracious and has granted Gu Beichuan the opportunity to serve as an official in the court." Wei Qing said with a red face and excited words.
When Yang Huai heard this, he frowned slightly and hurriedly stood up and said: "Your Majesty, after all, the recruitment policy was a method of the Wu Dynasty, and it conflicts with many laws of our dynasty."
"If I rashly recruit Gu Beichuan to serve as an official in the court, I am afraid that he will be criticized if he does not comply with the etiquette system."
"Any meritorious deeds must be rewarded, and any delinquent must be punished. This is the purpose of the imperial court. How can we talk about etiquette?" Wei Qing stepped forward and made an impassioned speech.
"Thirty years ago, when His Majesty was trying to bring order to the chaos, he established a system of etiquette. If you want to become an official in the court, the only way is to take the imperial examination."
"No matter how talented Gu Beichuan is, he must not mess up the etiquette system because of one person, otherwise where will my Daqian law be placed?" Yang Huai also stepped forward and faced Wei Qing tit for tat, refusing to give in an inch.
This matter is actually easy to understand. If Gu Beichuan entered the court as an official, he would definitely belong to the Qing Dynasty faction.
And with this person's talent and learning, he may be a powerful enemy!
In this case, it is better to nip the danger in the cradle, prevent him from becoming an official in the court, and kill this enemy from the source!
"Your Majesty, I think Prime Minister Wei's words are reasonable!"
"Your Majesty, I think something is wrong..."
This is no longer a fight between Wei Qing and Yang Huai, but a fight between two factions.
Many officials were vying to express their opinions, and for a while, the entire court was in chaos.
When Emperor Renxuan saw this, he frowned slightly and shouted softly: "That's enough!"
"I have already made a decision on this matter. There is no need to discuss it any further."
