The yamen was sealed, but the Holy Emperor did not completely put down government affairs.
As usual, he got up early to freshen up, sat in the imperial study, and looked through the memorials that were not urgent and had not been disposed of before yesterday.
Most of the contents are sent in advance by local government offices to express New Year greetings.
A few auspicious words.
Among them, several books mentioned Li Shao.
After seeing it, the Holy Master put it aside and asked Eunuch Cao, "Has Xu Jian arrived?"
Eunuch Cao went outside to ask.
It was a coincidence that as soon as he stepped out of the imperial study room, he looked up and saw Xu Jian.
"The Holy One asked about the Duke." Eunuch Cao rushed to greet him.
Xu Jian untied her snow coat, straightened the hem and cuffs, and then followed her into the imperial palace. After bowing respectfully, she sat down as instructed.
The Holy One took a sip of tea and said, "There were so many things going on in the past few days that I didn't even bother to ask you. I've been in Shuntian Mansion for a while. What do you think?"
This time, Xu Jian did not excuse himself from "dawling around".
Truly, he talked about what he thought and saw during these days.
What is Shuntian Mansion doing, how is it being promoted, how is it coordinated with other yamen, and what are the similarities and differences with the last time he was "in charge" of Shuntian Mansion.
The Holy Master listened with great concentration and nodded from time to time.
Is this because the Holy One cares about his growth in the yamen?
Xu Jian knew that he was indeed concerned, but behind the concern was careful consideration for the prince.
When Li Shao was young, the Holy Master could always take him with him and teach him things in person.
The year before last, Li Shaocai moved out of the East Wing Hall of the Holy Palace and established his own East Palace.
It's not far from the bedroom and the royal study, but after all, it's not in front of you.
The court was busy, and the Holy Master wanted to give more advice, but he was too ambitious but not able to do enough.
Furthermore, what those in higher positions see and think are not entirely consistent with the Qianbulang Yamen where they handle affairs and the local government.
No matter how much you listen to in the royal study or how much the three orphans explain, it is just talk on paper, not more direct than visiting the Yamen in person and observing the politics seriously.
Only if you understand how the yamen below do things, you will not have dark eyes and make jokes when you sit on the throne in the future.
Asking the ministers to smile and embarrass the royal family is a trivial matter.
A layman gives random advice to an expert, making it difficult to carry out sacred orders and making government affairs a mess, which is fatal.
In his early years, the Holy Emperor had no intention of becoming an emperor. He just wanted to be an idle prince, and he never studied those things properly at all. .
So that when the throne fell on his head, he realized his shortcomings.
From being named the crown prince to ascending the throne, it only took a few months. He was determined to learn, but how much could he learn?
Fortunately, the veterans left behind by the late emperor were capable and taught him step by step, helping him survive the first few years and slowly get on the right path.
The Holy Father has gone through detours himself, so he naturally does not want his son to make the same mistakes again.
Therefore, observing politics is a must.
But how to observe and what insights can be gained depends on enlightenment.
And enlightenment, in addition to oneself, of course also needs someone to guide the way.
this person……
Xu Jian glanced at His Majesty.
He knew that the Holy Spirit wanted him to do this.
Having grasped the Holy Spirit's thoughts, what he wanted to say and how he wanted to say it were naturally prepared before he came.
The speed of speech slowed down, Xu Jian did not speak very fast, and even stopped occasionally to pretend to think.
The Holy One did not urge him.
After all, he was free today, so he had enough time to listen slowly.
After Xu Jian finished speaking, one could tell from the look on the sage's face that he was very satisfied with the summary.
"Shan Qing praised you to me, and you praised him to me," the Holy Sage laughed, "You two get along really well."
Xu Jian lowered his eyes and said, "Sir Shan is in charge of Shuntian Mansion. He has a set of abilities. I am not boasting with my eyes closed."
The Holy One laughed.
Just do it well
boast.
This is normal.
He likes to hear well-founded and well-organized praise among officials.
This shows that as a king, he employs people wisely, puts the right chess pieces in the right positions, and plays a role.
Feeling relaxed, the Holy Master said again: "You didn't just sit and kill time. You actually saw some things and thought about a lot. I'm very pleased. Come, look at these excerpts for me."
After speaking, the Holy Emperor nodded at the basics he had picked out earlier and motioned to Eunuch Cao to give them to Xu Jian.
Xu Jian took it with both hands and opened it to take a look.
Putting aside the compliments and greetings, the common point of these excerpts is "Li Shao", and they all believe that the prince is young and the emperor should give him more experience.
I don't know which horn Gada's nest sent this book. I don't know that anyone in the capital would not mention that the prince visited Yumen last year on behalf of the emperor, and even praised the prince's training trip.
After he finished reading, the Holy Sage said: "I have been quite hesitant this year.
For a while, I thought that Shao'er was still young, so I would learn more from Sangu and lay a solid foundation before letting him get into practice. After a while, I thought again, if you just listen without practicing, your ideas must be naive and not practical enough.
It's this kind of innocence that makes him act unsteadily and think out of his mind. Otherwise, you wouldn't be hurt.
You analyze it for me, let Shaoer go to various yamen earlier to observe the government and master more practical matters, or let him calm down and follow the bosses. "
Xu Jian pursed her lips.
After "thinking" for a while, he said: "Since you are telling me this in private, of course you don't want to hear some superficial talk, so I won't beat around the bush and tell the truth."
The Holy Master nodded: "You can say whatever you want, and I won't hold you accountable."
"You established the crown prince early because you had planned to leave the world in his hands. Even if other princes have outstanding abilities in the future, you will not establish another prince. And you can be so hesitant now because you are at the right time. "You are in your prime of life and in good health," Xu Jian paused and said boldly, "If you are in poor health and the imperial doctor is no longer optimistic, you can immediately kick the prince to the Qianbu Corridor to watch the politics."
Eunuch Cao poured some tea for the Holy Sage, and his hands almost trembled when he heard this.
Listen to what Duke Fu Guo said!
To tell the truth, it’s too true!
Fortunately, the Holy One didn't care and even laughed.
Xu Jian continued: "I thought it was better to be prepared than to have any trouble. The prince said big or small. He will be seventeen next year. How can he not understand the government?"
The principle is such a principle, that is, "Be prepared and be prepared"...
Sheng glanced at the hand he was holding on the big case. The young man was really careless in his words. He spoke as if he would die in a few years.
That's all, he doesn't care about these trivial things.
Besides, Xu Jian is right.
At seventeen, he is not mature enough, but he is old enough to understand government affairs.
"According to your idea, after the new year, let the prince start to observe the government from the six departments." The Holy Lord had already made this decision, and also led Xu Jian in along with the flow of the situation. "You did a good job in Shuntian Mansion. If you do this, Please talk to Shao'er about your thoughts, and follow him to observe politics after the new year."
