Daxia Palace, Imperial Study Room.
Fu Xiaoguan was talking to Yan Xi Wen Yunxi about the follow-up plan for rural revitalization. Liu Jin walked in softly, bowed and whispered: "Your Majesty, Zong Shiji has been escorted to the Ministry of Punishment."
Fu Xiaoguan raised his head and said, "Bring him here and let me take a look."
"Okay... Your Majesty, he is very dirty and smells bad. He begged General Bai to let him wash himself. You see..."
"Oh, then wash up, give him a new set of clothes, and let him come to see you more decently."
"My slave obeys your orders."
Liu Jin retreated, Fu Xiaoguan turned to look at Wu Tianci, and asked: "If one day, a minister you like very much makes a mistake, a big mistake, the kind that requires beheading, what will you do? Do you forgive him because you like him?"
"Don't be too busy answering me. Think about it carefully in your heart first."
Wu Tianci was a little surprised, thinking that I don’t have any ministers that I like very much. Aren’t these ministers promoted by your father?
He cannot empathize with others and can only assume, so it is difficult for him to have an answer to this question.
Fu Xiaoguan continued to discuss with Yan Xi Wen Yun Xiyan. Not long after, Liu Jin walked in with Zong Shiji.
Zong Shiji was wearing shackles and handcuffs. He stood in front of Fu Xiaoguan with his head lowered and a look of fear on his face. He knelt down with a thud.
"The timekeeper of the sinner sect, please see your majesty!"
Fu Xiaoguan didn't even glance at him from the corner of his eye, but Wu Tianci looked at Zong Shiji who was kneeling on the ground in astonishment.
"What I want is to transfer Shi Yiming to Yueshan North Road to serve as a Taoist priest, and Fang Wenxing to Yueshan South Road to serve as a Taoist priest. As for the governors of the states below them, they will be promoted from the county magistrates of other provinces. Especially in wealthy places such as Jiangnan West Road and Jinghu North Road, we should promote more and let go.”
"Shi Yiming and Fang Wenxing have done a very good job in their current positions as magistrates. The evaluations of the Ministry of Civil Affairs and the Yuli Tai have been excellent in the past two years. With their experience, they should be able to govern these two areas. ”
"What do you think? Speak freely. You can also nominate. In any case, it will ultimately be submitted to the cabinet for review and approval."
Zong Shiji knelt on the ground with his head bowed. When he heard these two names, he was suddenly shocked. He knew both of them!
Speaking of which, Shi Yiming was hostile to the emperor when he was in Jinling.
Since the Shi family fell due to being implicated in Xue Dingshan's rebellion, Shi Yiming was fished out of prison by Fu Xiaoguan.
Now he is about to be put into important use by the emperor and become a frontier official!
If I had not made these mistakes and not followed Yan Xibai, the Taotai location on Yueshan North Road would definitely be my own!
However, if it is not the case, it is all your own fault.
He did not dare to raise his head, but Yun Xiyan glanced at him twice. After all, they were Enke who participated together and even had hot pot together in Jinling.
We haven’t seen each other for several years.
Who could have imagined that it would be like this when we meet again.
It’s really fate that makes people happy.
Yun Xiyan didn't think about Zong Shiji anymore, and it was even less possible for him to plead for Zong Shiji, because this guy was really over the top, and he actually wanted to kill Prime Minister Yan!
There is no forgiveness for sin.
Looking at the emperor's attitude without even looking at him, this shows that even gods can't save him.
"I nominated He Sheng'an and Huang Sheng. He Sheng'an and Chen were both Enke candidates. I got first place in the exam, and He Sheng'an got second place!"
"He Sheng'an was once assigned by His Majesty to Lanling County on Wofeng Road. He presided over the construction of the freight distribution center in Lanling County and also presided over the construction of the North-South Grand Canal."
"He did a good job, but it was only after you left and the following events happened in the Yu Dynasty that those projects were not completed."
"In the early years of the Great Xia Dynasty, He Sheng'an was transferred to Yuzhou, North of Dali, as the magistrate. The evaluation of the Ministry of Civil Affairs and the imperial official's station had always been excellent. He did not avoid relatives when promoting talents. What's more, this guy was not close to the minister, but the minister felt that he had This ability governs one."
"Your Majesty, you know this guy Huang Sheng. In my opinion, he is living too comfortably in Qinzhou now. We should give him more burdens and throw him on the mountain road to experience what it is like to be an official in a poor place. Feelings."
Fu Xiaoguan grinned, "Okay, write down these two names as well. What about you, Xiwen?"
"I think these four people are all capable of doing the job. Otherwise, after Ning Yuchun and Qin Mowen come back, we will see if there are any Taoist platforms that need to be replaced in the other Taoists?"
"No, the situation on the two mountain crossings is the most serious right now. We need to decide on the candidates first. After all, it will take some time for them to get there."
"Then tomorrow I will submit the resumes of these four people to the cabinet for discussion, and first decide on the candidates for Yueshan Road."
"Yes." Fu Xiaoguan nodded and looked at Yun Xiyan, "I said, you have to keep up with the money from your household department and the grain that the coordinator wants to transfer!"
"Spring plowing has not been completed in many places across the two mountains. They have no food. It will last until next year. If people starve to death... I am the only one asking!"
Yun Xiyan grinned and said, "Your Majesty, don't worry. Our household department has plenty of money, and the grain has been transferred directly from Jiangnan West Road and Jingzhou South Road. Of course, the ones transferred so far are to meet urgent needs, and I still need to wait. Here are two detailed statistics on the rations required.”
"Well, let's do this first."
This sentence means the end of this small meeting in the Imperial Study Room today.
Yun Xiyan and Yan Xiwen were about to leave, but Fu Xiaoguan pressed his hands.
Only then did he look at Zong Shiji, "Raise your head and let me take another look."
He used the word "I". Yun Xiyan and Yan Xiwen understood that the emperor's use of the word "I" meant that he was not that close.
Zong Shiji raised his head, with tears streaming down his face, "The guilty minister... I am ashamed of Your Majesty!"
"No, it really doesn't matter whether you are worthy of me or not. What is important is whether you are worthy of the people under your rule? Are you worthy of your conscience?"
"I did not expect that a person would change so much. This was my mistake, because my mistake caused all the people in all the counties and counties in Chongzhou to suffer for so many years."
"You are so powerful, you can actually cover the sky with one hand and make the common people point at my nose and scold me!"
"So you are still very capable."
"Sinful minister..."
Fu Xiaoguan waved his hand and interrupted Zong Shiji, "Don't say anything, because there is no point in saying it. I just want to see you, and when I look at you, I will ask myself, why did I do that in the first place? It will blind these eyes!”
"I have to thank you, Zong Shiji! If you hadn't sounded the alarm for me, I would have thought that this summer was really bright and sunny, and there really wasn't a single dark cloud covering it."
"So you did a good job. You made me understand that people's hearts are changeable, and people will change."
"Well...I don't want to know about your bad things now. You can go and explain it to the Ministry of Justice."
"Liu Jin, take him to the Ministry of Punishment. I have seen enough and feel a little sick."
"Your Majesty..."
Fu Xiaoguan waved his hand, and Liu Jin dragged Zong Shiji out of the imperial study.
"Xi Wen, tell the officials that criminals like Yan Xibai and Zong Shiji should be tried in public in Chang'an where there are the most people!"
"They themselves are shameless, so why should I give them face!"
"This incident will sound a wake-up call to all the officials in Daxia. Although I have abolished the law of continuous sitting, officials like them... will be infamy for thousands of years!"
