Prime Minister of Great Qin

Chapter 248 Is it just a big change? (seeking subscription)
Xiao He and others have been in Lingling for ten days.

During these ten days, Xiao He and others got to know Li Dan and other courtiers' sons better. Although these courtiers' sons are proud, they are not arrogant, but they are a bit rigid in their actions, so it is easy for people to distance themselves.

Liu Ji lived like a duck to water during this time.

Although he was not on the invitation list, with his eloquence and thick skin, he managed to get along with these people. In many cases, he was even able to claim a seat in his honor as an 'elder' and 'experienced person'. .

Long-sleeved and good at dancing.

It was dusk, Liu Ji and Xiao He were enjoying the cool air in the courtyard.

Compared to Liu Ji's spring breeze, Xiao He seemed a bit dull, not because he was neglected, but because Xiao He had something on his mind.

Liu Ji has known Xiao He for many years, so he can see Xiao He's thoughts at a glance.

He asked: "Xiao He, why have you been so downcast these days? When we come here, we don't have to worry about political affairs, and we can enjoy delicious food and drink every day. Such a good life, why are you still depressed?"

"It's really weird!"

Xiao He smiled wryly, looked at the dim sky, and said dully: "It's the autumn harvest time now, and when the autumn harvest is over, it will be time to plan every year. In the past, it was often the busiest time for political affairs. I do have time to spare, but the political affairs in the county will also be delayed because of this, if I fail to complete the established plan, I am afraid that many things will be delayed in the coming year."

Xiao He looked worried.

heard.

The corner of Liu Ji's mouth twitched slightly, he gave Xiao He a blank look, and said speechlessly: "You are so boring, you are not in the county now, why do you care so much? This time it is not you who voluntarily avoided, but His Highness recruited you If you come here, even if you really don't complete the planned work in the future, it has nothing to do with you."

"Moreover."

"Didn't you give Cao Shen all those instructions in advance?"

"I believe that with Cao Shen's ability, he should be able to handle it well."

"You don't have to think about it."

"Since you are already in Lingling, you should enjoy the moment."

"Wouldn't it be nice?"

Liu Jigao shouted, full of joy.

Xiao He laughed.

He is not as optimistic as Liu Ji.

Nor did he forget his true function.

I am the chief official of Pei County.

For local officials, the most important thing in a year is to plan. This is not only a summary of this year, but also the outlook and goals for the next year. Also takes more time.

Liu Ji glanced at Xiao He, shook his head and said, "You obviously just can't take it easy."

Just when Xiao He was about to explain, there was a sudden sound of footsteps outside the courtyard where they lived.

The two subconsciously looked towards the door.

I saw a small official in soap clothes quickly appearing in the courtyard, and at the same time sent a message to the two of them.

Your Highness is coming!

At the moment they are being summoned by the county government in Lingling.

Xiao He and Liu Ji trembled, they didn't dare to delay any longer, they quickly straightened their clothes, and quickly followed the little official towards the county government office.

They've actually been waiting for this moment for a long time.

In the past half month, they have been full of curiosity about Fusu. In the past, the world praised Fusu a lot, but after all, they have never seen it in person, so they don't really believe it. I won't really look up to it because of this.

Simultaneously.

They were also very curious about what the crown prince wanted to do when he summoned them, and what he wanted them to do.

When Xiao He and Liu Ji rushed to the county government office, the magistrate and county lieutenant of Lingling had already arrived at the county government office. Li Dan and Zheng Ru waited respectfully aside. We met face to face, didn't say anything, found a relatively back seat in the lobby, and sat down like that.

Soon.

Wu Rui, Wu Zhu, Shi Yue and others were also present.

It was very quiet.

No one took the initiative to speak.

No one tried to break the silence in the lobby.

They all waited quietly aside, only looking out of the hall from time to time.

Everyone didn't wait too long.

soon.

There was a sound of footsteps outside the lobby.

The footsteps were not heavy, and even seemed a little brisk.

Everyone followed the prestige, and saw a man wearing a black gown entering the lobby with a warm smile on his face. Although there was a faint smile on his face, it gave people a feeling of calmness and prestige. People dare not be contemptuous.

Seeing this person, Shi Yue, Mao Chen and a few others suddenly widened their eyes in disbelief.

The official at that time was actually the prince of the Great Qin Dynasty?

This.
How can this be?

They rubbed their eyes, really couldn't believe it, but after looking carefully for a few times, they finally had to admit that this person was indeed the official historian who was the leader at the time.

Think of this.

Shi Yue and the others panicked.

They really didn't take Fusu seriously at that time.

They just regarded him as an ordinary official. If they knew that Fusu was the heir of the Great Qin Dynasty, how dare they act like that?

They were quick-witted people, and after knowing that Fusu was the heir of the Qin Dynasty, they immediately reacted. I am afraid that the few officials who followed Fusu at that time were also of amazing identities, and they might even be other people. son.

No wonder it was the cattle driver who actually registered at that time.

The panic of Shi Yue and others was not known to others. The moment Fusu entered the hall, the officials headed by the magistrate of Lingling directly bowed and said, "Your Highness, I will see you."

Others followed suit.

Fusu nodded slightly.

He sat down on the main seat, glanced calmly at the crowd, with a smile in his eyes, and said slowly: "I have actually contacted some of the officials present, but because of some things at that time, it was not convenient to express Please don’t mind your identity.”

heard.

Shi Yue and the others gave a wry smile.

How dare they have the slightest opinion now.

up to this point.

They also reacted.

No wonder they were able to enter the prince's office, that was the reason.

At that time, when Fusu and others were traveling in Guanzhong, they actually told them personally, but they didn't pay attention to it at the time. After all, who would really take what an official whose official position was not much higher than them said?

When the others heard Fusu's words, there was a strange look in their eyes.

Li Dan and Zheng Ru's eyes moved slightly.

They glanced around imperceptibly, and when they saw Shi Yue and the others' embarrassing expressions, they also showed thoughtful expressions.

And they also roughly understood what Fusu was talking about.

Fusu didn't say much about this, and slowly said: "Everyone has been in Lingling for a while, and I'm afraid I'm a little impatient to wait, so I'll stop gossiping. It's really necessary to call you here this time. Let the matter be handled by you.”

"It was actually revealed in the order at that time, but not much."

"Your mission is to make relatively safe arrangements for the transfer of non-commissioned officers in the South China Sea."

"You will not enter Lingnan this time."

"The office is located in Lingling."

talking.

Fusu waved his sleeve.

Several small officials waiting outside the lobby, as if they had received an order, came in with a few stacks of bamboo slips in their arms.

Fusu said: "This is the application written by the non-commissioned officer of the South China Sea. It contains the non-commissioned officer's own thoughts. There are also several volumes of official positions that the imperial court can provide. You can make reasonable arrangements for the non-commissioned officers in the army based on these bamboo slips. .”

Done.

General Fusu said what he said in the army again.

It's just that after hearing what they were going to do and what the court was doing in the South China Sea, everyone couldn't help but stare, even a little dumbfounded. These things were completely beyond their expectations.

Especially when Fu Su said calmly and bluntly, "Give soldiers' children the opportunity to go to school", "Give non-commissioned officers the qualifications to serve as officials" and "Give the family" and other words, it made everyone feel shocked.

Fusu didn't pay much attention to the shock of the people below.

There is no need to bother.

He said lightly: "It's just the first time to serve in the Office of Affairs, and it's also an attempt made by the court. I hope you can do your best."

"Thank you Fusu."

Fusu saluted everyone below.

Everyone also hurriedly said: "The ministers will definitely obey His Highness's order."

Fusu nodded and said: "It's getting late, so I won't say any more. I leave these bamboo slips for your reference. This time, you have a heavy task on your shoulders, but it's still early. I believe that with your abilities, It can be done well.”

After a few words of encouragement, Fusu left.

The people who were still in shock were left behind.

a long time.

Finally someone woke up.

Looking at the bamboo slips placed in the middle of the lobby, there was a wry smile on their faces. They were all cunning people, and now they understood that they might have boarded a pirate ship this time. Although they were only confined to the army at the moment, these things Once they spread out, they may face a lot of pressure when they return to the place in the future.

Because what they will do is going against the habits of the past.

Liu Ji also frowned.

After the others left, he approached Xiao He again, and said in a concentrated voice, "What do you think of what Your Highness said?"

Xiao He raised his eyebrows and looked around, then lowered his voice and said: "I feel that this matter is unusual. His Highness Fusu is the heir of the Great Qin Dynasty. Everything he does actually implies the will of Qin Ting. This matter can be resolved in court. Passed, I am afraid that it has been recognized by many people. In the past, all parts of the Kanto region were full of resentment and fear towards Qin, which is actually not unreasonable."

"Qin is not like the world after all!"

"It's just that I have some doubts about these practices."

"Can it really go on?"

"Even if it can be done this time, what about next time?"

"The imperial court may want to use this to solve some of the army's long-standing problems, but how can the long-standing problems accumulated over the past hundred years be solved so easily?"

Xiao He frowned.

There is a deep puzzlement between the brows.

While being shocked, he was also keenly aware that the loopholes in these ideas were not sustainable at all, and they were only applicable to a small number of people. Once the number increased, Qin Ting would simply not be able to afford it.

Even if he could see it, it was impossible for the imperial court not to see it.

But why did the imperial court insist on going its own way?
He didn't understand.

Xiao He didn't understand, but Liu Ji saw some clues. He smiled and said: "What kind of thing is it? Qin is Qin, Zhou is Zhou, Qin is not Zhou, and Zhou is not Qin. You only need to distinguish the difference. , in fact, everything can be seen clearly.”

"Zhou and Qin are two kingdoms."

heard.

Xiao He frowned.

He looked at Liu Ji and asked curiously, "What did you see?"

Liu Ji shook his head and said, "How much can I see? It's just that you have misunderstood. Qin and Zhou are different. Qin's foundation is law, and the foundation of its prosperity lies in military merit. , you have a chance to stand out, Qin's system is different from the aristocratic system followed by Zhou."

"Even backtracking."

"The two are therefore destined to collide."

"Right now, His Highness is only beginning to intentionally target the aristocratic system, and at the same time trying to build a new system. Therefore, the so-called sustainability is not important at all. The important thing is whether it can be done. As long as it can be done, it will be a success."

Xiao He was puzzled.

He said in a concentrated voice: "But if it can't be continued, wouldn't it be abolished halfway?"

Liu Ji smiled and said: "That's not necessarily the case. The Qin court is a centralized court, and the court has great power. As long as the court is willing, it is not easy to vacate some official positions? But let the world gradually accept this point of view. The biggest difficulty."

"So Qin Ting chose the army."

"Use the army to test."

"However, this has nothing to do with us. I, Liu Ji, promoted Xiaomin with one fight, and I won't be the one to blame the sky falling. It doesn't matter if I get so much, and if Qin Ting's idea can really be implemented, more people can read and write. , so that more people can enter the official career, Qin Ting's control over the world may far exceed many people's imagination, and it will be supported by the vast majority of people in the world."

"after all."

"There are also many dissatisfied nobles in the world!"

"The lesser of two evils."

heard.

Xiao He thought about it.

He said in a concentrated voice: "According to what you said, Qin Ting is actually buying a horse bone with a thousand dollars this time? Trying to use these measures to shake the old world's rigid rules? As long as these ideas can be recognized by the world, Qin Ting will have enough motivation to do so. Do further things, because under the old system, many people have stolen positions, once the new system is established, the positions that were originally stolen can be given up.”

"One goes up and down the other."

"Numbers don't seem to be an issue."

"The world already needs so many people, but it's just a big change?"

"Just isn't that too risky?"

"I don't know." Liu Ji sighed with eyes full of eyes: "How can we guess this? And horse bones? Aren't you recruited officials not horse bones?"

Liu Ji looked at Xiao He with a half-smile, then left humming a little song.

Xiao He was stunned for a moment.

a long time.

Xiao He seemed to understand something, with a wry smile on his face, he said: "Liu Ji sees these things clearly. Compared with Liu Ji, my vision is still much worse, horse bones? We are indeed horse bones, As long as His Highness is successful, we people will be able to skyrocket, so how can we not be praised by the world?"

"And this is not buying horse bones for thousands of dollars?"

"But if it is really successful, what about being a horse bone?"

Xiao He chuckled, and also walked away.
