In fact, Li Zong, the Minister of State in the palace, did not have a very strict office.

Every time Li Zong is on duty, the place closest to the emperor's court, called Tiren Pavilion.

Not to mention the remoteness of this place, even the name of this pavilion is not the kind that most people know.

However, although the name of this pavilion is a bit off, it has a unique charm when you think about it carefully.

So, Li Zong likes this quite a bit.

As soon as this morning arrived, everyone in the lower head saluted Li Zong one by one.

Yes!

Although the Secretary of the Palace in his palace is just a head of the security department, he still has many people under his back.

This is responsible for recording daily matters and even attendance documents, captains of patrols in each group, and secretary and staff.

Although he can take up the responsibility of giving advice to the emperor alone, sometimes he also needs to listen to other people's opinions.

After all, as the saying goes, three cobblers are better than one Zhuge Liang.

In addition to reducing his burden on the one hand, he also needs to make some relationships.

Even though he handled these relationships very lightly at this time.

And of course! He decided all of the positions of clerks, captains, and secretary and staff.

When everyone saw Li Zong appear, they saluted one after another, and then discussed: "The Shangshu seems to be in a good mood today."

"This is what he is. Have you ever seen when he is in a bad mood? But I heard..."

Then, the two of them went to the gossip about Li Zong's new house and Li Zong's wife.

It was precisely because Li Zong brought his wife here that he was in a good mood.

As the saying goes, people feel refreshed when they are happy!

Secretary and Staff, Li Zong originally wanted to choose some young disciples from the Three Dukes, Situ and Sikong to serve as the roles.

However, after searching, it seemed that he only found one more suitable one, that is, Xun Kai, the grandson of Situ Xunfan of the dynasty. As Situ, Xunfan was also a person with a story when he was young.

When he was young, his parents died and could only live with his grandmother. Once, the Feng Shui master came to see them build a house. After accidentally seeing him, he predicted that he would become a noble nephew.

Later, when he grew up, he was also handsome and elegant. He should be loved by everyone, but he was a little slow.

Moreover, he was unwilling to use sweet words to please others, so the people around him were not optimistic about him.

Even one of his cousins, who was the Minister of Personnel at that time, was not optimistic about him.

Later, when he grew up, he naturally wanted to find an official position like Li Zong, but because he was really not very good, he was finally sent by his cousin of the Minister of Personnel to guard the water dirt.

This water mill is used to pound rice, which is very important in ancient times because it is undoubtedly equivalent to an automated "factory".

In the dynasty before Li Zong traveled, the Tang Dynasty, the princess had a conflict with the temple because of the water mill, which shows the important role of the water mill.

but……

These things are no longer needed in the Jiangnan region where Li Zong is now, because Li Zong has invented something that is easier to use than a water mill.

This kind of thing that can only move up and down repeatedly is naturally higher than the efficiency of grinding with a grinding disc.

Let’s not talk about this for now. In short, his cousin just gave him a small official, so he didn’t expect him to have a great future.

Even his cousin often sighed: "As long as you can become a sesame and green bean official like a centurion, I will have no regrets."

Most of the others smiled when they heard this, but he didn't care at all.

Once, he stayed at a wild man's house, and the hostess of this house happened to have a child. Someone asked, "What did you give birth to?" The man replied, "Boy, you will die of weapons at the age of fifteen." He asked, "Who is the one who stayed at the residence?" The man replied, "In the future, Xunfan, who will become the third duke."

Fifteen years later, when Xunfan visited this family again, the son of this family was indeed injured by an axe and died, which made him even more convinced that he would become the third minister in the future.

However, he was already in his forties at this time.

but……

The change was just a moment. At the age of 45, he finally stood out among his many opponents by pursuing filial piety and honest people and being able to deal with the nobles.

Later, he became the general and chief secretary. Whenever someone competed for archery and was short of people, he would call him up, and he shot an arrow, hit the bull's eye, shot another arrow, hit the bull's eye again, and was promoted again.

Of course, it is absolutely impossible to shoot archery accurately just because of the simplest. The accumulation of daily life, the little things are also very important.

Since then, every time he makes suggestions, it is the most appropriate and is highly valued.

Even in the end, he came to the side of Emperor Dog. Xunfan was extremely honest all his life, had no wealth in his family, and had long applied to retire. Among the three ministers, if it weren't for someone like him, Li Zong would have been unable to propose the Three Provinces and Six Ministry.

Because Situ among these three ministers is in charge of the relevant responsibilities of the Ministry of Revenue. Think about the fact that the Ministry of Revenue is so fat that anyone with his own desires cannot allow Li Zong to weaken the noble status of the Three Ministers into the Ministry of Revenue among the Three Provinces and Six Ministers.

This man is a real pillar of the country. When Li's father went to discuss the three provinces and six ministries system, he agreed very much.

If there were no such person, Li Zong's plan would not have been so successful.

It’s a pity that if the other party was twenty years younger, or ten years younger, it would be useless to say more now.

This is an important period for the transition from old to old. In addition to Yang Xie, the old ministers of the Dog Emperor were still in a state of great strength. The rest were basically old and could only live up to their old age.

Among the three dukes, Taiwei, Situ, Sikong, Yang Xie was Taiwei, Situ was Xunfan, and Sikong was still vacant for the time being. The King of Chu originally wanted to sit on was the Sikong position. The original position should be the former crown princess, the current queen's father.

But the queen's father had already passed away, which was also the reason why the queen had joined forces with the King of Chu. The three dukes had already held almost most of the power in the court, but at this time, two of the three were abolished, and Yang Xie eventually lost his allies.

To put it bluntly, Li Zong's reform of the three provinces and six ministries was not because Li Zong was born smart, but instead, it was because he was always helping him.

only……

In the next imperial examination reform, there will be no such thing as time.

He has to create this opportunity himself.

Xun Kai seemed to have a good face today. In fact, he is not very familiar with Li Zong now, and who would disappear like Li Zong, as soon as he disappeared for several months.
