The legend of the king of crossing

Chapter 527 Dengzhou County Magistrate

The lecture hall of Huazhou Academy is very large.Compared with the lecture theater when I was in college.It is also almost the same.Although the facilities such as tables and chairs in the house are quite old.But extremely neat.Every table and chair here.Every door and window.They seem to be silently telling about the past glory of the academy.

Go through the lecture hall.Fan Zhishang took us to a room similar to a reception room at the back.

"Your Majesty, this is the best room in the academy." Fan Zhishang pointed to an antique chair on the front of the room. "Your Majesty, please sit up."

Before the Song Dynasty.Whether it is the royal family or the people's home.They all sit by their numbers. "Ji" and "case" are collectively referred to as "several cases".It is a very low piece of furniture.Some are similar to the tea tables of later generations.Only its short.So there is no need for a high seat.At best, put a futon or mattress under the buttocks.

The high tables and chairs popular in later generations appeared in the Song Dynasty.The advent of tables and chairs.It has completely changed the living habit of Chinese people sitting on the ground for thousands of years.According to the research of later generations.During the Huizong period of the Northern Song Dynasty.The use of high tables and chairs has become very popular.

"Okay." I sat down and looked around.I saw landscape sketches or handwriting calligraphy all over the wall.Judging from the color of the paper.Apparently some age.I thought to myself.Any work here.It will definitely be a priceless treasure in future generations.

Only for a while.My eyes scanned it again.Smiling and praising: "Mr. Fan, this place is very romantic. It's like a museum that collects precious cultural relics."

"Museum." Fan Zhishang didn't respond for a moment.

"Naturalism" as a word.It first appeared in "Shan Hai Jing".It means being able to discern multiple things. "Shangshu" called a person who is knowledgeable and knowledgeable "a natural gentleman".But the word museum is imported.So Fan Zhishang didn't immediately understand.

I didn't bother to explain.Asked: "Mr. Fan, the calligraphy and paintings here must be quite old."

"Return to the emperor. The calligraphy and paintings in the house are basically left by our ancestor Wen Zhenggong when he founded Huazhou Academy."

I nodded and said: "Very good. For more than 100 years, Dengzhou City has gone through wars. And these historical relics can be preserved. Your Fan family has contributed a lot."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your compliment."

at this time.There was a sudden noise outside the house.A strange voice shouted loudly: "Who is trespassing on my Huazhou Academy?"

Meng Tianya's voice was even louder: "Presumptuous. The emperor is here. He dares to make a lot of noise. Yay. He is still holding a weapon. All the guards. Take this person down."

"Break into private houses. Dare to take people." That strange voice was not afraid.Said again.Immediately there were several "Dang, Dang, Dang" sounds of weapon collisions.Apparently it's been done.

Fan Zhishang's expression changed.He hurriedly said: "Your Majesty. It is Fan Liangfu, the grandson of the grassroots. Liangfu is young and ignorant. I don't know if it is the Emperor who is here. Please forgive me."

Before the emperor.Holding a weapon.Unless it is approved by the emperor.Otherwise it is a capital offense.This has been the case in all dynasties.Even Dengzhou has been ruled by the Mongols for decades.This rule is well known.

"Mr. Fan. It's okay. Those who don't know are not to blame. General Wang, Patriarch Wang Qian. Go and call Fan Liangfu in."

"Yes. Your Majesty."

After a while.Fan Liangfu walked in following Wang Qian and Wang Anjie.

See Fan Liangfu.Fan Zhishang then said angrily: "Nonsense. The emperor is here. He still dares to touch his feet. Hurry up and kneel down. Make amends to the emperor."

"The emperor. The emperor of the Song Dynasty. Grandfather..." Fan Liangbei was stunned for a moment.I saw me in a dragon robe sitting on the main seat.Hastily knelt down and said. "Fan Liangfu, a grassroots man, kowtowed to the emperor. Long live my emperor, long live, long live, long live."

At this point.Everyone in Dengzhou City knows it.The Song army has conquered Dengzhou.The emperor in front of him can only be the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty.Fan Zhishang has always regarded himself as an old man of the Song Dynasty.Therefore, his grandson Fan Liangfu also belonged to the Song Dynasty.

Fan Liangfu was in his early twenties.tall and big.The equipment is magnificent.Although there is no weapon in hand at this time.But the expression between his brows is heroic.Quite a bit of chivalrous demeanor.I laughed and said, "Get up."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness." Fan Zhishang followed closely. "Caomin has only one grandson. He likes to dance with guns and sticks since he was a child. He has always refused to read more books about sages. Because his parents died young, Caomin neglected to discipline him. This is Caomin's fault. I hope the emperor will forgive me .” It can be seen from Fan Zhishang’s words.Although as a commoner.Fan Zhishang was like most officials in the Song Dynasty.Think that culture is more important than martial arts.

I said calmly: "Sir, you worry too much. The foundation of a country is the only way to pay equal attention to civil and martial arts. I remember. Back then, Fan Chunyou, the eldest son of Duke Wenzheng, was a general with high martial arts skills."

"Yes. Your Majesty. The grassroots are also educated."

Of course I heard that Fan Zhishang's words were duplicity.Not broken.Straight to the point: "Come back to business. Mr. Fan. Dengzhou city has been recovered. I plan to appoint a local sage as the county magistrate of Dengzhou. Now I have Mr. Wang Qian's recommendation. I don't know if Mr. Fan intends."

Fan Zhi was not ready yet.Dazed for a moment, he said: "Your Majesty, Caomin is just a commoner. He has no fame. He has no experience of being an official in the court. Plus Caomin is old. How can he find such a great job."

"Mr. Fan, this statement is different. As big as emperors and generals, as small as officials and officials. They are all housed by the virtuous and the capable. Now we have just returned to Dengzhou. A thousand wastes are waiting to be revived. We need a talented person. Reputable elders and sages lead the people of Dengzhou to a new future. Just as your ancestor Wen Zhenggong said. "Worry about the world's worries first, and enjoy the world's joy later." This is the way of a gentleman. I also said it. The rise and fall of the world is everyone’s responsibility. Mr. Fan, just think about it. If the county magistrate of Dengzhou City falls into the hands of villains or mediocre people, wouldn’t it harm the people of the city.”

Wang Qian who was on the side also said: "Professor Fan. The emperor is right. If you talk about the talents and abilities of Dengzhou, I really can't pick anyone other than you. The people in the city are convinced."

Fan Zhishang thought for a while.Knowing that I will not agree again.I'm afraid I can't explain it upwards.Sui said: "Your Majesty, the grassroots are more respectful than obedient. But, but..."

I saw him hesitating.He smiled and said, "Mr. Fan, speak up."

"Yes. Your Majesty. The grassroots have a request. I also ask your Majesty for your permission."

"please say."

"Your Majesty. Caomin knows. I have a three-year cycle of officials. Caomin is old now. Please allow the emperor. Caomin can serve as the county magistrate for at most three years. After three years, please ask the emperor to promote someone else to take up this position. Caomin is more willing Dedicate the rest of my life to this Huazhou Academy."

"Okay. There is no problem with this. I promise you. Mr. Fan. During the three years you have been the county magistrate of Dengzhou, you can still serve as the head of Huazhou Academy."

Fan Zhi said happily, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Huazhou Academy can be said to be where Fan Zhishang devoted his whole life.It was founded by his grandfather Fan Zhongyan.It was renovated by his father Fan Chunchun (the fourth son of Fan Zhongyan).And then he himself has been here for 50 to [-] years.The painstaking efforts of the three generations of the Fan family made it hard to let go.

"Fan Aiqing. The Dengzhou County Government is under the rule of the Xiangyang Prefecture for the time being. After the recovery of the entire Henan Province, it will be re-divided. As for the other officials of the government office. Such as county captains, county magistrates, etc., all are recommended by you. Just Report the directory, files and other information to Zhao Shun, Sun Zhao Aiqing, an academician of the Government Administration Academy in Xiangyang City. Just let him put it on record. At the same time, I will order Xiangyang Prefecture to send someone to assist Fan Aiqing in setting up the Dengzhou County Government. Compared with the past, there is only one difference. Every administrative division above the county level has a new department. It is called the Independent Commission Against Corruption. This department is independent of the existing government system. It belongs to the supervisory agency. It is directly under my leadership. I will let the Independent Commission Against Corruption in Lin'an directly appoint Deng State and county ICAC directors."

"Yes. Your Majesty."

"Fan Aiqing. To be an official in the Song Dynasty today, you need to remember three points. First, as the emperor of the Song Dynasty, I have supreme power; First of all, enjoy the joy of the world; third. Strictly act in accordance with the law of the court. When it is difficult to choose between love and law, the law should be the first."

"Yes. Your Majesty. The subordinates will keep it in mind."

"En. Fan Aiqing. This Huazhou Academy has lasted for a hundred years. It can be carried forward. When you are an official, don't let it fall into disrepair. The Minister of Education in the current court is Jiang Wanli Jiang Aiqing. He is also a person who is enthusiastic about the academy. The person who built it. In the future, it will be related to the academy. You just need to go to him."

Of course Fan Zhishang knew Jiang Wanli's name.With a smile on his face, he said: "Yes. Your Majesty. This subordinate obeys the order. Mr. Jiang has a great reputation. The subordinates have heard of his name for a long time. In the future, I will definitely visit him when I have the opportunity."

"Okay. Fan Aiqing. Come with me. Go to the county government to have a look."

"Yes. Your Majesty."

"Emperor. Your Majesty. Wait a moment." Fan Liangfu saw that we were leaving.said courageously. "Your Majesty, I have something to ask for. I don't know if it is possible."

"Oh. What is it?"

"Your Majesty. The little one is willing to follow the Emperor to recover my Chaoshan River. Please allow me."

"Join the army."

"Yes. Your Majesty."

Fan Zhishang secretly sighed.However, he still kept a smile on his face and said: "Your Majesty, although this grandson of this subordinate can't study well, he will definitely make meritorious deeds for the Emperor on the battlefield."

I was surprised to hear that.This Fan Zhishang doesn't seem to be a big fan.How can you be so sure.Then he said, "Really."

"Your Majesty, this is not what my subordinates said." Fan Zhishang explained. "Your Majesty. The person who said this was a monk named 'Wu Ming'. This unknown master was born in the Fusheng Temple in the west of the city. Almost everyone in the Dengzhou area is well-known. He never lied in his life. He once said the same thing twice. The first time was 40 years ago. The person he said was the father of General Wang Anjie. General Wang Jian. This first time has been fulfilled."
