Song Jiu did not want Wang Xian to go on. Wang Xian was the lord in the Western Palace, but Song Jiu liked it. For no reason, Wang Xian was there, and there was no doubt that there was a big tree in front of him, especially now, otherwise, as the only veteran of the two palaces, he would be particularly conspicuous, even though he was not old.

I had to wait for a little recovery this year, so I could go to Hedong for two or three years instead of my father-in-law, and then I wouldn't be so conspicuous when I came back.

The truth of the Song Dynasty's officialdom was to reassure the emperor, and the other was to make officials not jealous and think that they knew how to advance and retreat, so that they would not attack and eventually go down in shame.

Therefore, we began to prepare for the launch plan.

This plan needs to be supported by Zhe Yuqing. Originally, Song Jiu proposed that Wang Chengmei also supported it, but because Li Jiqian had no rise, the Wang family in Fengzhou was very powerful, and Zhao Kuangyi rejected it, and Song Jiu did not persist anymore.

That day, Zhao Kuangyi came to the Western Palace in person. All the clerks retreated, only a few prime ministers and several senior "staff officers", and only one Zhe Yuxun was left.

In fact, whether the Zhe family or the Wang family were more loyal to the Song Dynasty, even if there was no Western Xia. This is a geographical factor. The Khitan was in the north. Without relying on the Song Dynasty, they could make the Khitan swallow up no bones at any time.

The court was pretty good to them. Although Zhao Kuangyi had some ideas, he gave them a lot of autonomy and military power on the surface.

Song Jiu expressed this plan.

Several prime ministers and staff members were shocked, and even Zhe Yuxun was also stunned.

Cao Bin said: "Who can take responsibility?"

"Jing Si!" Song Jiudao. Of course, Jing Si would not be the only one.

Everyone stopped talking. Under the publicity of Song Jiu, the achievements of the front-line soldiers were well known in the rear. The most popular person was Li Jilong. Na Zhen defeated the Song army nemesis Yelu Xiuge twice, and it would not be possible to admit it. Several remaining ones were Tian Min, Li Jixuan, Yang Yanzhao, Hu Yanzan, Yang Ye, Yin Jilun, and Jing Si.

Zhao Kuangyi was very happy. Having this brave general in his hand was also the monarch's happiness.

Mi Xin said: "This kid is fierce."

Tian Chongjin laughed even more. Does anyone know Jing Si better than him? But he still said soberly: "He is good at charging and short of commanding the three armies. At least he has little experience in leading the army, and he is even shorter than governing the area."

"Kou Zhun."

"Ah." Everyone was surprised again.

Zhao Kuangyi and Song Jiu did not explain this anymore. It is difficult to choose the Prime Minister of the East Prefecture, but it is difficult to choose the Prime Minister of the West Prefecture. It is also difficult to use military generals. It is probably not appropriate to go to the West Prefecture to plan, but now it is also a staff department to share the responsibility. Therefore, the main responsibility is to handle the government affairs of military affairs, and it is best to be a civil servant. However, the civil servants do not understand military affairs, so the monarch and minister immediately thought of the popular Kowu Zhun. Let him try to hone for another year or two, which is the front line, so there will be first-hand training in military affairs. In addition to Zhang Qixian, there will be a talent with both civil and military affairs. The country will have more candidates for Xifu to choose from.

The person was selected, there was no controversy.

Begin whispering and discussing.

No one knows what he said on this day. Generally, when the emperor talks with ministers, there are daily officials who make records. If there is no daily officials, sometimes eunuchs also make records and then archive them. But the one who makes records on this day was Zhang Hong, the deputy minister of the Western Palace. Afterwards, this archive also blocked it.

The next day, Zhe Yuqing returned to the prefecture and Zhao Kuangyi rewarded him with great rewards.

The first step in the plan is to initiate it from the prefectures.

Where is the most important place for Zhe Yuqing?

But this plan has long become unrecognizable from Cui Yanjin's original idea. After all, the situation at that time is completely different from the current situation. It is just a key idea that has been preserved.

Then personnel transfer.

Now on the front line, Li Jilong is Dingzhou, and Guo Shouwen in Zhenzhou is dead. Some people are asking Liu Yanhan to replace him, but Song Jiu suggested that Yuan Jizhong be replaced. Liu Yanhan was a little unhappy at first, but after thinking about it, it would be better to stay in the capital and enjoy the peace and prosperity. He also realized that the court was preparing to train reserve talents, and these veterans would be eliminated one by one unless they could fight to the point of Pan Mei.

The Polu Army was Sun Quanzhao, and the deployment of the troops was Cui Han. They also had two super-capable generals under them, Yang Yanzhao and Wei Neng. In fact, Song Jiu wanted to replace Cui Han with Yang Yanzhao and transferred Cui Dapao back, but his relationship with his father-in-law and son-in-law made him unable to say anything.

Baozhou is Huyanzan, Xiongzhou is Liu Fu. This is also the most dangerous area in Hebei. In addition to these generals, brave generals such as Li Jixuan, Tian Min, and Kong Shouzheng are also stationed in this area with different positions.

Compared with this area, Mozhou, Cangzhou, Bazhou is a little unpopular.

At this moment, the court suddenly made a change, allowing Jing Si to be the deployment of the military commander of Cangzhou, and Kou Zhun was the governor of Cangzhou. The two replaced Zhang Yongde, a veteran general who was "ruled by nothing and loves peace", to supplement the staff of the Staff Department.

The little kou is incomprehensible.

He was a little dissatisfied. I did not make any mistakes, why did I let me go to the border?

Song Jiu could see that compared with Zhang Qixian and Lu Mengzheng, Xiao Kou had a slightly inferior mentality, so he deliberately called him to the Western Palace and said, "Do you do it well, there is no major event, otherwise the court would not have allowed Jing Si to go to Cangzhou."

But Kou Zhun was also slapped, and no one told him the truth.

When Xiao Kou went down, Song Jiu was waiting for the opportunity.

However, this year made him very disappointed. In July, heavy waters in Ji, Hong, Jiang, Qi, Heyang, Longcheng and other places flooded many farmers and houses. This flood-affected area ranged from the wealthy Jiangnan West Road to Jinghu area, to Jingxi Road and even some areas in Shaanxi. There was sea water here, but there were deserts, Kaifeng, Chenliu, Fengqiu, Zizao, Yanling and other areas continued to have severe drought, and there was no harvest. The court had to issue an edict that these affected areas were exempted from duty for one year.

Moreover, the disaster in two years affected the harvest. The so-called nine-year grain storage last year was used for disaster relief. The price of grain in the capital was getting more and more expensive. In order to calm the public's grievances, the country had to take out some money and buy some grain in addition to the tax grain, opening a warehouse to sell it to the people at a moderate price, so as not to raise the price of grain for the people to resent.

With such years, no plan can be launched.

Then continue to stay in Xifu.

In order not to make everyone feel like they look up at the height. In addition to handling the affairs of the Western Government, Song Jiu disappeared almost in a year. If it weren't for something that happened in October, Song Jiu would have been completely invisible this year.

First, Jiang Yuanzhen, the governor of Baizhou below Guizhou.

The salary among officials in the Song Dynasty was the highest among all dynasties, and there were many rewards in addition to salary. Therefore, Wang Yuxi wrote a letter to reduce unnecessary rewards. But it also depends on that, first, the salary of officials has not reached the highest point, and some people settled the accounts and said that when Bao Zheng was at the highest salary, he added all the rewards to one piece, and his annual income could reach tens of millions of yuan. But that was the time of Emperor Renzong of Song. If it were now, even if he was the deputy envoy of the Privy Council, it would not be that high.

Secondly, it depends on the position. If you are a small county magistrate, your income will not be too much, at least not now.

But it depends.

Just like later civil servants complained, many people competed to take civil servant exams, because in addition to public salary and rewards, there were also many gray incomes, and even directly embezzled and bribed, or used their power to do business. Many people did business at the family of the literati and wife of the Song Dynasty.

But if you want to be a real honest official, your official position is very low. Then that little income will not work.

This is what Jiang Yuanzhen said. He was a small official with a clean style. Then he thought to himself that I was a decent person and had no backstage. It seemed that it was difficult to get promoted, but there were many family members. What should I do if my family was in a difficult life? Lingnan has low prices. It has developed quite fast in recent years. I should ask for Lingnan officials. It is difficult to ask for an official position, but it is not easy to ask for an official position in Lingnan. So the court transferred him to Baizhou as the governor.

Jiang Yuanzhen placed his family in Tanzhou, not far from Lingnan to support him, and then sent them his salary. However, his income was still not enough to make the family live a happy life, so he had to simmer himself, drink beans and drink water, and sew paper to make clothes.

But he was simple in politics and loved by the people. The best time in Lingnan was when Song Jiu Pan Mei was in Lingnan. At that time, he was easily satisfied after the tyranny of the Southern Han Dynasty. In addition, Song Jiu Wang Ming Pan Mei and others carefully governed it. At that time, the people of Lingnan were full of happiness. Until now, countless people still miss these people, especially Song Jiu's goodness.

Later, life was not so easy to satisfy, and I also knew that the officials of the Song Dynasty might not be all officials like Song Jiu. Although they were better than the Southern Han Dynasty, they were of different quality, with good and bad officials. It was rare to have a good official, so the people of Baizhou supported Jiang Yuanzhen very much.

According to the Song Dynasty system, the transfer was about to be transferred when the order was full. However, the Guangnan Transport Authority had no suitable officials to replace him, so he forced him to stay for seven or eight years. Jiang Wuzhen did not make any statement, and his family was unhappy. The court sent an interview envoy to continue, so he reported to the interview envoy, which was good. My Yuanzhen became the magistrate, but Baizhou is a small and poor place with a low income. My Yuanzhen is so miserable, do you have the heart to keep watching?

There was also an official Yao Yigong. He was the first to be a magistrate of the Xingguo Army. Because of his honest style, the court summoned him to the palace to transfer his post. More than a thousand people from the Xingguo Army, young and old, blocked the road and did not allow him to leave the Xingguo Army. Yao Yigong had no choice but to let the soldiers open the city gate at night and secretly leave the Xingguo Army. Then he arrived in Xucheng. Because of the good governance, he had not even used whip in the yamen hall. After three consecutive years of governance, countless people knelt down and begged the transferee to leave Yao Yigong.

The interview envoy reported the deeds of these two officials to Zhao Kuangyi. Zhao Kuangyi read out the deeds of these two officials at the court meeting, and then issued an edict to give Jiang Yuanzhen thirty pieces of silk, fifty stones of rice, twenty pieces of silk, and twenty stones of silk of Yao Sigong.

Song Jiu suddenly raised his odor and said, "Your Majesty, I am guilty."

Zhao Kuangyi was incomprehensible.

Song Jiu said again: "I estimate that a piece of silk is more than 600 yuan. Although rice is expensive, a stone is only 400 yuan per stone. Jiang Yao Qinglian is so capable. I believe that thousands of local officials in the Song Dynasty can compare with them. However, Your Majesty gave Jiang Yuanzhen only 60 yuan in silk and Yao Sigong to earn more than 40 yuan in silk. However, I went to Shundian with my family some time ago and ate more than 200 yuan in silk. I am guilty."

Everyone laughed, and Zhao Kuangyi laughed in silence, so he changed his edict and gave Jiang Yuanzhen three hundred pieces of silk, five hundred stones of rice, two hundred pieces of silk, Yao Sigong two hundred pieces of silk, and two hundred stones of rice. He was promoted to two levels of official positions at the same time to be an example for local officials.

Song Jiu then slowly retreated.

In fact, he also wanted to say one thing, that is, the transfer system of local officials. The Song Dynasty officials were relocating more and more frequently, which was also wrong. If you want to do a good job, you have to stay for at least three or four years. If you are in Jiangzhou, you have finally solved the conflicts and problems and started to be prepared for governance, and the court will transfer itself to the capital. If you give yourself two more years to manage, then you will let the people leave in Jiangzhou. Such frequent mobilizations will not only change the orders every day, but also make the people unable to adapt. In order to be promoted as soon as possible, officials also began to do superficial work, resulting in the inability to implement benevolent governments in various places.

But this was the responsibility of the East Mansion, so Song Jiu did not say it out.
Chapter completed!
