Chapter 704: The Unspoken Rules of Song Dynasty Officialdom

"Why are the officials so tired?" Zhu Lian looked at Zhao Huan who was sleeping in the palace and looked at Zhu Fengying with confusion.

Zhu Fengying looked at his sister with an innocent look on his face. In order to rush from Chenzhou to Yanjing, the official family did not rest on the road for a day. They all passed by the Great Vehicle Jade Pig. They were all thinking about the floods in the Yangtze River Basin and the people of the world.

It's normal to be a little tired.

"I told you a long time ago that the official family was weak and once he was simply cold, he fainted for three days. Let you be more at ease. Why are you still like this? It's so tired of the official family." Zhu Lian blamed his sister with a sad look on his face.

Zhu Fengying looked at Zhao Huan, then looked at her sister and asked, "Sister, do you think the official family is weak? I'm not farming because of the poor land."

She remembered the Emperor of Song Dynasty who was rushing by wild boars, and a heat surged up in her lower abdomen. How could the official's body be so weak?

However, she soon knew why her sister had such a misunderstanding. Not only was the official tired, but she was also haggard and haggard.

I didn't wash up well on five or six days, and the car was exhausted. If my sister hadn't called her, she would have fallen asleep long ago.

"Sister is wronged. The official family is thinking about the flood in the south." Zhu Fengying shook his head and said, "The official family is busy and no one sees you. It's not that I don't know. I can sleep occasionally in the car these days, but the official family can't stand it before taking a nap."

"Why do you have to work so hard?" Zhu Fengying couldn't understand that the emperor of the Song Dynasty in front of him was too diligent.

Zhu Lian looked at Zhu Fengying carefully and found that Zhu Fengying's eyebrows did not dissipate, and it didn't seem like the pale face caused by excessive sexual intercourse. He realized that he was probably a misunderstanding.

"Then let's discuss the surprises for the official family..." Zhu Fengying asked with a very hesitant look at the sleeping Emperor of Song Dynasty.

"Let's wait for now, wait until the official has no worries." Zhu Lian thought about it, and surprises had to wait until the official had leisure to be considered a surprise, and now they can only be considered a burden.

Zhao Huan slept for three hours, opened his eyes suddenly, gasped, and sat up, rubbing the sweat beads on his forehead with a look of shock.

Zhu Lian looked at the seated official and asked with concern, "What's wrong with you, official?"

"I have nightmares, the Jiangnan floods, and tens of millions of people have lost their own land and have jointly conquered Bianjing. I dreamed that I had died on Wenhua Tower." Zhao Huan replied, wiping the sweat on his forehead.

Zhu Lian covered his mouth and was frightened by the words of the officials. He hurriedly said, "The dreams of the officials are the opposite. Dazai Li has already presided over disaster relief in Bianjing. He has resettled the victims and distributed food for disaster relief. The officials do not need to worry too much."

Zhao Huan is a firm materialist, so he naturally does not believe that dreams are prophecies. He tends to think about things on the day and night. He is thinking about the floods of the Yangtze River, so he naturally dreams when dreaming.

"Zhao Ying! Send Li Taizai's letter, prepare the car, and get back to Bianjing in a while." Zhao Huan wiped the sweat from his forehead and shouted loudly while getting up and staying.

"You can also clean up later, don't be too hasty to return to Beijing." Zhao Huan said to Zhu Lian.

Zhu Fengying followed her car for several days and still had some hard work.

"Yes." Zhu Lian said without hesitation.

Although she had received the news that Zhao Huan was going back to Beijing, she had already cleaned up and prepared to follow the official family back to Beijing, but after the official family said that, she was ready to do it.

She didn't want to cause trouble for the official family when the official family was busy.

The construction of the Bianyan Chi Dao was indeed an extremely wise choice! Zhao Huan felt more and more that his decision was correct.

At this time, it only takes two days to rush back to Bianjing from Yanjing. No matter what chaos occurs, you can catch up.

"Instruct Li Taizai not to use the work-for-relief method according to the work-relief institute. When the people stabilize and resume production, they will talk about work-relief."

"The most urgent task at the moment is to let the people eat, wear tops, and avoid the pain of wind and cold, so that Hu Yuan can take the imperial doctors and students from the Imperial Hospital to the disaster area."

Zhao Huan looked at Li Gang's letter and asked Zhao Ying to record it.

Work-for-relief is conditional.

Sudden and large-scale disasters like floods, if you are not careful, you will be civilians who will only feed them when working. If you are hungry, the people of the Song Dynasty who have just experienced floods, do you let them work?

That is inspiring civil unrest!

A few people who are interested in taking the lead in raising their arms will be together to cause trouble in dozens of prefectures and counties.

The method of using labor for relief is not a universal method. If any disaster is applied to using labor for relief, good policies will become bad policies.

Zhao Huan used work instead of relief, but now this is flood, with essential differences.

"The official family is kind and kind, and he is kind to all directions." Zhao Ying wrote down what Zhao Huan said and flattered him.

Zhao Huan ignored this nice words and continued, "There is also the matter of Suzhou magistrate escorting him to Beijing. Let's ease him for a while, let him make meritorious contributions and provide good relief to the people."

Zhao Huan's imperial edict to dismiss the Suzhou prefect came to Bianjing, and was quickly executed.

But in the letter, Li Taizai asked for love for the Suzhou prefect.

Only then did Zhao Huan realize why he was busy all day long and could not finish his letters. He felt that the entire Song Dynasty was a big funnel and there were too many things to deal with. But when he arrived in Shenzhou, he received various greetings every day.

These are all the hidden rules of the Song Dynasty. The officials went to Liaodong County to expedition, and were at the northernmost end of the Song Dynasty, and war was greater than anything else.

The court officials will hand over all kinds of difficult things to the prince of the governor and the ministers of the auxiliary state to solve them immediately.

This is all to prevent the emperor from being on the front line and worrying about the fire in the backyard.

The Suzhou prefect did give the emperor a letter of greetings, but the disaster situation in Suzhou was reported to the court and cooperated to provide disaster relief.

No errors are required.

Only then did Zhao Huan understand what the essential difference between Beijing officials and local officials is, and also understand why the Chen family in Huainan wanted to let Chen Chong enter the power center of the Three Dukes and Six Qings.

Being a small official is too difficult.

Although the Suzhou magistrate was the largest official rank in Suzhou, he was still a magistrate. If Li Gang had not pleaded for him, the man would have been flirted with nothing to do after he was admitted to the Bianjing Prison.

And he has ten thousand mouths, but he can't explain the unspoken rules.

The reason why unspoken rules are unspoken rules is that they cannot be put on the table.

The Suzhou prefect acted according to the unspoken rules, but he was a little suspicious of being a saint. He did not report the disaster to the emperor, but he reported it to Li Gang?

The Suzhou prefect was admitted to Xing Prison and the Minister of Justice, and he had to be charged with being disrespectful.

Otherwise, wouldn’t the officials misunderstand their ministers in this matter?

Whether the emperor is right or wrong, Song Shiqing, the Minister of Justice, could only choose the emperor with his eyes closed.

After Zhao Huan understood the twists and turns, he also sighed repeatedly that political correctness exists in any corner or era.

"The letter from the Imperial Heaven Supervision Bureau, please ask if you have built a prayer platform in advance and waited for the official family to return to Beijing?" Zhao Ying handed a letter to the official family.

"Why, I am planning to let me imitate Emperor Wen of Han, without asking the people about ghosts and gods?" Zhao Huan opened the letter and said sneered.

However, Zhao Huan hesitated for a while and decided to build a prayer platform to pray for the people in the flooded areas.

The reason is very simple. It doesn’t matter whether the government believes in ghosts or gods. What is important is that the people believe in it. Zhonganchang does this to calm the hearts of the people.
