Jiuding Military Division 2

On this day, Kou Wei, the director of the Supervision Department, was reviewing the official documents, and the guards came in to report, and the military division sent someone to invite him.

Kou Wei was slightly surprised, and hurriedly got up to go to the appointment, wondering why the military commander called him along the way.After entering the Military Advisor's Mansion, He Ran was demoted early to greet him.After a few pleasantries, He Ran joined hands and led him into the side hall.

In the hall, tea and wine were only set up on the chairman's table, and the wine was cooked in a small red clay stove. After He Ran sat down, he pointed to the seat in front of the table and said: "It's private to invite you here today, I'm just talking about the guests. Li, let's sit down together."

Kou Wei cupped his hands and said: "Thank you, the military advisor, then I would be more respectful than obedient." After speaking, he happily entered the table, and after this period of jehu, he knew the military advisor's temperament very well, and he was much more casual than before.

He Ran picked up the spoon and wanted to fill him up with wine, but Kou Wei hurriedly stopped him: "It's still the time to serve the public, even if you are not in the public office, you must never drink this wine, please forgive me, the military commander."

He Ran looked at the clock and said with a smile: "It's still half an hour away, so let's drink tea first. When it comes to respecting the public and obeying the law, I really take my lord as a model, hahaha, I don't even have this wine, my lord You can’t impeach me for this.”

Kou Wei smiled and said, "The military division is joking."

He Ran held the pot and poured tea for him, and said, "Please."

Kou Wei thanked him, took a sip, and then asked, "I don't know if the military division will be called, do you have any inquiries?"

He Ran removed the wine pool from the stove, pointed at it and said, "Specially prepare fine wine to congratulate your lord on his promotion."

Kou Wei was stunned for a moment, and said: "The lower official has not been promoted for a long time, how can he be promoted again in a blink of an eye? Could it be that the military division is playing with each other?"

He Ran said with a smile: "My lord is in a very important position, and the fortune of this official will be prosperous. This kind of luck is really enviable to others."

"In that case, isn't your lord playing with the lower officials? I don't know..." Covey frowned, hesitating and not daring to ask further.

He Ran said: "Although I often play with my colleagues, I dare not lie to my lord. My lord should know why."

Kou Wei said solemnly: "The duty of impeachment and inspection is not allowed to be slack. Slack is to show the majesty of the job. It is because of this concern that the military adviser does not play with the phase."

He Ran nodded in satisfaction, and said: "It's good that my lord knows my heart. Congratulations, your lord. After entering the palace tomorrow, you will be a first-rank Da Silu."

"First rank?" Kou Wei was so surprised that he couldn't close his mouth, and looked at him in disbelief. There are only three first rank officials in the court, one is the military advisor of Xiaoyao Gong in front of him, one is the Dazai, and the other is the Dazai. General, even the Zhongshu Ling who is in charge of the government is only second-rank, and the six ministers are all third-rank. Before that, his supervisory department was at the same level as the six ministries, so he has been promoted several levels in a row.

He Ran nodded and said, "Yipin."

After a while, Kou Wei said, "This...this does not conform to the new promotion regulations."

He Ran said: "It's not in line with the promotion regulations, so your promotion this time was ordered by the king, and you should do it urgently, so you don't follow the promotion rules."

Covey knew in his heart that it must be the military adviser who helped the government-minded prince to promote officials. He didn't get up immediately to thank him, because he knew that the military adviser was not a person to show favors, so he called himself to affirm it. He had other intentions. Thinking of this, he restrained his mind and asked: "Now that the people are in peace and the government is peaceful, I don't know what the military division means by 'urgent matters'."

He Ran smiled slightly, and said: "The new policy is very different from the previous policies. It is as good as rain, but if the water falls violently, it can also become a disaster. Now it is urgent to build dikes to prevent floods."

Kou Wei said with a little ease: "Is the military adviser over-concerned? The lower officials supervised and did not see anything wrong. There has never been an official of any dynasty as clean as today. This is not because the lower officials want to show the merits of our company. That's exactly what happened."

He Ran waved his hands and said, "I'm not blaming you for your lack of supervision. The current situation is indeed good, but this is deterred by severe punishments and laws. Some officials are not really convinced in their hearts. There are also many laxities in the New Deal. Hui, even if you encounter injustice by chance, you won't care too much about it, but after a long time, you won't be yyng, people, you always have to look twice. The current situation is that the water in the barrier lake is slowly accumulating, if it can't be dredged as soon as possible , I don’t know when it will lead to a catastrophe.” [

"That's not the case, is it? I still feel that the military adviser is overthinking. From the perspective of my duties, some laws and regulations are worthy of discussion. I am thinking of submitting them to the court after considering it. If there is a danger of hanging in the lake... ..." He smiled and shook his head.

He Ran pondered for a while, and said: "It's okay if you think so, but it's always right to be loyal and prevent problems before they happen. You and I are both important ministers of the country, so we should work harder for the king and the society, and do more. some precautions."

Kou Wei said solemnly: "What the military advisor taught me is that the subordinates know that their eyes are not as far-sighted as the military advisor's. Since the military advisor has this concern, the subordinate officials dare not slack off. They don't know how the military advisor will make the subordinate officials work."

He Ran smiled and waved his hands and said: "It's serious, from tomorrow onwards, you and I will both be officials, and you will only respect the king's life from now on, and you can't be too humble to others, even if you face the Dazai, you can't be called an official." .”

Kou Wei shook his head and said: "Meng's military master loves him, but Kou Wei still has self-knowledge, and he is self-aware of his achievements in the country and the king's size. At this moment, the third rank of the official residence is already panicked, and he absolutely dare not accept the title again. The official begs the king to take back the favor, otherwise the next day when he enters the palace, the officials will kneel and resign to the king."

He Ran smiled, took a sip from the teacup, and said, "Grade corresponds to duty. I haven't even mentioned the duties of the chief minister, and you are afraid of difficulties?"

Kou Wei said: "Military advisers know how to be a low-level official. Kou Wei will die a hundred times to serve the country. He doesn't want to be entrusted because of his meager achievements. He is absolutely afraid of difficulties."

He Ran narrowed his eyes slightly and looked towards the door, with a look of reminiscence, and said leisurely: "Thinking back in the past, the Cangxian Valley was completely surrounded by Zhao Shun's coalition forces, and there were only a few thousand defeated soldiers left in our country of Yi. Your Majesty appointed me as a military advisor. How could I have made any achievements at that time? How could I have saved the country?" At this point, he withdrew his gaze and looked at Covey, "My lord is proficient in the law, has a fair heart, and is in charge of the supervision If you don’t take on the responsibility of being the chief minister, who will the imperial court appoint? I am a lazy person by nature who can stand up to danger, and my lord has always been loyal to the emperor and the people, so why is he not willing to serve the country at this time? Do you share your worries?"

Covey was moved by his words, pursed his lips, and said, "Could the military division explain the duties of the Chief Law Officer first?"

There was a smile in He Ran's eyes, and he said: "That's right, but before we talk about the duties of the Chief Law Officer, let's have a show first."

Kou Wei grinned and said, "Military Master, this is embarrassing for me to be an official. Since I was young, I have disliked all kinds of games. I even missed nine out of ten throws, let alone the rest."

He Ran smiled and pointed to the chopsticks on the side of the plate, and said, "Naturally, it's not an ordinary show at this moment, this is extremely simple."

Covey had noticed the extra chopsticks on the table a long time ago, and he was always puzzled why there were so many extra chopsticks, so he asked blankly, "How is this a joke?"
