Chapter 296
(Third update! Thank you for your support, the author will continue to work hard~)
The loud noise in the imperial city last night also alarmed Emperor Chongde.Before the early court, he heard Chang Kang talk about the specific situation, knowing that it was only the Zhongshu Provincial Council that collapsed, and there were no official casualties, so he didn't pay much attention to it.

At this moment, he was sitting on the dragon chair, looking at Pei Gongfu who was almost wiping tears in the Xuanzheng Hall, he was deeply puzzled.The government office has collapsed, and it needs to be repaired and rebuilt. How big a deal is this?Pei Gongfu is like this, so what?

Regardless of whether it is necessary or not, Pei Gongfu is doing this.Standing in the hall, he was talking about the collapse of the Zhongshu Provincial Government Office.The miserable description and mournful tone made the officials in the Xuanzheng Palace very moved.

If they didn't know that the meeting hall had collapsed, they would have thought that what Pei Gongfu was describing was a tragic situation in the world!Mr. Zhongshu Ling, it seems a bit too much, right?
"Your Majesty, the Zhongshu government office has been built for a long time and has withstood more than 70 years of wind and rain. Moreover, there have been many snakes, insects, rats and ants infested these years. The large beams of the meeting hall are eaten by ants, and then bitten by mice. It will be broken. Now the meeting hall has collapsed, the rubble of the Zhongshu official office is scattered, and the sundries are scattered all over the ground, and the house will collapse at any time, and the officials and guards dare not step into it..." Pei Gongfu said like this, will Let's talk about the situation in the official office just now.
In the end, he said: "In the final analysis, the area around the Zhongshu government office is too bad. It is surrounded by a wall, and outside the wall is the royal hunting ground. There are hiding places for snakes, insects, rats and ants. It is difficult to eliminate this situation. Presumably Mr. Wang also has a deep understanding. Mr. Wang, what do you think?"

When he said this, Wang Zhang came out and said: "The situation is indeed so. A few days ago, sawdust kept appearing in Zhongshu and Menxia provinces. These sawdust must have been bitten out by rats. According to the officials on duty at night, they could still hear it." The sound of 'squeak'. Snakes, ants, rats and ants like to be rotten, indeed, the government offices in that area are too old..."

A few decades ago, Zhongshu and Menxia provinces were not as important as they are now.Out of various considerations, the imperial court set the positions of Zhongshu and Menxia provinces in the southwest corner.Not only is it far away from the palace city and the Xuanzheng Palace, but it is also close to the imperial city wall, and outside the wall is the royal hunting ground.The hunting ground, of course, is a place with lush mountains and forests, what is there?
In this way, Pei Gongfu and Wang Zhang joined forces to make it impossible to stay in Zhongshu and the government offices of the two provinces, and made the officials fully realize that even if the Zhongshu Provincial Council Hall does not collapse at this time, it will be destroyed later. It will also collapse, because the environment is so bad that it cannot be avoided.

The faces of the officials of the Central Secretariat were a little confused. They felt that the Central Secretariat was fine. Although it was indeed old, it was also clean and tidy. They did not feel any danger at ordinary times, and it was not as bad as the chief official said.Why did the chief officer say that?

That's right, why did Pei Gongfu and Wang Zhang put so much effort into talking about Zhongshu and the government offices of the two provinces under the door so badly? ——This doubt also flooded into Shangshu Zuocheng Jiang Qin's heart.

Now Fang Jixin is recuperating at home, and Jiang Qin is temporarily in charge of the affairs of Shangshu Province.Jiang Qin also upheld Fang Jixin's belief and did not like to see Zhongshu Sheng.There is no other reason for not wanting to see it, but it is because of the word "power".

Shangshu Province is in charge of the affairs of the hundred officials, which is the most important of the three provinces. This can be reflected by the fact that the chief officials of the six subordinate ministries are all three-rank officials.However, since the end of the founding of the People's Republic of China, Zhongshu Province and Menxia Province have become more and more important, and their power has also grown.

Now, Zhongshu and Menxia provinces are the same as Shangshu province. They are all in charge of the emperor. Although Zhongshuling and Menxia servants are of lower rank than Shangshuling, Jiang Qin still feels a kind of oppression and crisis.

As early as a few years ago, Jiang Qin mentioned to the chief official Jixin that to prevent the Zhongshu and Menxia provinces from getting bigger, the power of the Shangshu Province would be limited at that time. ——There is only so much power in the center of the country. If it is bigger, it will naturally be smaller.

Fang Jixin followed Jiang Qin's suggestion, and since then he has targeted Pei Gongfu everywhere. This is the cause of Fang and Pei's grievances, and it has gradually become the result of the discord between Shangshu Sheng and Zhongshu Sheng.

Now, the Zhongshu Provincial Assembly Hall has been destroyed by rainwater and insects, which cannot be done by manpower.At the beginning, Jiang Qin felt a little gloating in his heart, watching Pei Gongfu's crying was like watching a good show.

But even Wang Zhang participated in it, so he couldn't be like watching a play.The two chief officers united together, their actions are definitely not as simple as crying!This gave him a bad premonition, he always felt that something was overlooked.

Sure enough, his premonition soon came true.It turned out that Pei Gongfu and Wang Zhang had such an idea!

After crying, Pei Gongfu revealed his real intention: relocate!Relocate Zhongshu and Menxia provinces!
He lowered his head slightly and said to Emperor Chongde: "Your Majesty, the environment in Zhongshu and the lower provinces is too bad, and it is no longer suitable for working here. Now that there is another disaster like this, the entire government office is almost destroyed. Destroyed, the old minister please relocate the Zhongshu and Menxia provinces, and choose another place to work."

As soon as Pei Gongfu's words fell, Wang Zhang immediately said: "Your Majesty, I have seconded Mr. Pei's performance. Not to mention that the positions of the government offices in the two provinces are so bad, but the two provinces are in the remote southwest corner. Are you going to Xuanzheng Palace, Miyagi Palace? It is very far away, and it is very inconvenient. The officials of the Zhongshu Province who have drafted the order have to travel for a long time when they go to report the political affairs. This place is really not suitable..."

With the promotion of the status of Zhongshu and Menxia provinces, the government office in such a remote corner has many inconveniences, which has already aroused the dissatisfaction of Pei Gongfu and Wang Zhang.They had mentioned their intention to relocate to Emperor Chongde many times before, but they were all blocked by Fang Jixin, and finally nothing happened.

Now, the government offices of Zhongshu and Menxia provinces have been hit by natural disasters, especially Zhongshu province, even the meeting hall has collapsed, and there is no place to work at all.In this way, even if the Ministry of Education does not want to move, it will move.You can't work in such a dangerous room, can you?

Menxia province and Zhongshu province were closely connected and were also damaged.If Zhongshu Sheng moved, there would be no reason for Menxia Sheng to stay here.

Jiang Qin's heart skipped a beat when he heard that Pei Gongfu proposed to relocate.It really is relocation!Pei Gongfu and Wang Zhang's crying is for relocation!

If the two provinces of Zhongshu and Menxia are relocated, they will definitely be moved closer to Xuanzheng Palace and Miyagi, and will definitely be closer to the emperor than Shangshu Province.The distance determines the amount of contact, and the amount of contact with the emperor determines the amount of power!
The relocation of Menxia and Zhongshu provinces is an act of seizing power by Zhongshu and Menxia provinces. In Jiang Qin's view, it is absolutely impossible!
