Chapter three hundred and fortieth official career

"The Inscription of Huangyang" and "The Inscription of Songchang Tower" are like two rushes scraping through the forests of Da Zheng Shi. There are always a few sentences in these two articles that touch the hearts of scholars and make people fall in love with them. As for the sentence "Worry about the world before worrying about the world, and then enjoying the world after joy." Whether you like Jiang Anyi or not, you must be impressed by his courage.

In the imperial study room, Shi Fangzhen sighed with these two articles: "The article has been in the ages, no matter what other articles, just relying on the sentence "Before worrying about the world and worrying about the world and enjoying the world', thousands of years later, people may not know me, but will not forget Jiang Anyi."

Seeing that the emperor was a little sad, Liu Weiguo smiled and said, "Look at what you said, no matter how famous Jiang Anyi is, he is just your subject. Long live your wise and powerful man, and he will definitely become the hero who shocked the past and present. Jiang Anyi is fortunate to be appreciated and valued by you, which is his blessing."

Shi Fangzhen laughed and said, "You are becoming more and more able to speak."

Liu Weiguo lowered his head humbly and smiled without saying a word.

Shi Fangzhen looked at the Songchang Tower Notes and said, "If scholars in the world can be as loyal and patriotic as Jiang Anyi, I will be able to rest assured. Unfortunately, most scholars only look at the word "fame and fortune". How many kings and countries do they have in their hearts?"

Liu Weiguo hesitated for a moment and said, "Long live, I think Lord Jiang's words are a bit big. Everyone has the heart of fame and fortune. Lord Jiang is still young, how could he be so indifferent to fame and fortune?"

"Well, you said it right." Shi Fangzhen said: "It is a habit for literati to exaggerate words, and Jiang Anyi is no exception. However, his patriotism is true. Otherwise, if you can't say such powerful words, no one can be perfect, and you can't seek completeness."

Liu Weiguo's words reminded Shi Fangzhen. He frowned and said, "Last time, Jiang Anyi was engaged in the integration of the three religions, I have beaten him to pay more attention to political affairs and cause less trouble. The words are still in my ears, and this kid has created so many Mingtangs again. Do you think my words are in your ears?"

The king is unpredictable, and Liu Weiguo regrets it. Jiang Anyi is a talented person. If he is neglected by the emperor for this, wouldn’t it be his own fault? Shi Fangzhen thought for a moment and said to himself: “Jiang Anyi is making a huge contribution in Fuluo County. Could it be that he intends to let me know what he intends?”

Shi Fangzhen slapped the table violently and ordered: "Liu Weiguo, send someone to the Ministry of Personnel for the merit examination and ask them to bring me the performance of Fuluo County. By the way, give me all the performance of officials sent from the capital to local counties at the beginning of this year, and compare it with last year."

With two incense sticks, the eunuch trotted back from the Ministry of Personnel Examination Office, holding the performance of the emperor in his hand. In the twenty-seven prefectures of Zheng, there were 1,939 counties in each county, the emperor could not have the performance of the emperor, but he naturally had to pay special attention to the political achievements of Jiang Anyi and the officials sent to this year.

The top part is the performance of Jiang Anyi, the county magistrate of Fuluo County. The word "top" made Shi Fangzhen's eyes lit up. Although he would not have read the performance of each county, the Ministry of Personnel would summarize the situation and report it to him. There are only more than ten people in the world who can be listed in the "top" list in nearly 2,000 prefectures and counties.

The performance assessment is divided into five parts: agricultural and forestry reclamation, tax and service collection, population increase, social security, and Dehua education. First of all, agricultural and forestry reclamation, Fuluo County added 21,700 acres of new land, which is really amazing. The normal county town reclaims wasteland at most 2,300 acres, and Fuluo County has actually increased tenfold. Shi Fangzhen learned from the Lizhou report that Jiang Anyi asked to collect refugees, build residences for refugees, and provide food and oxen. He promised that the newly reclaimed wasteland and barren mountains would not be paid tax for three years. All refugees in Lizhou flocked to Fuluo County. Shi Fangzhen glanced down and found that the population growth, Fuluo County had increased by 27,094 people. So many people flocked to Fuluo County. Each person counted that the land reclamation was less than one acre. This number was absolutely credible. The barren mountains that should be reclaimed were not included.

Shi Fangzhen was most concerned about taxation. Although he had some knowledge in advance, when he saw the number of 10,700 trump cards, he couldn't help but applaud and blurted out: "Jiang Anyi, a true national scholar, can write beautiful articles in literature and establish a theory when he started school; Wu can go on missions to Beimo to fulfill his mission and quell the bandits; he has achieved such excellent results when he went to the local area to promote the "tax-to-one" and achieved such a good result. No wonder the examination officer listed it in the "highest" list."

Social security and Dehua Education Shi Fangzhen glanced at a glance. Jiang Anyi did well in these two projects, wiped out the bandits in Huangyangzhai, and produced two scholars for one and a half years. These were both real achievements. No matter how picky the exam, they could not find any problem.

"Look, Jiang Anyi is both literary and military, and he is really a pillar of the country. I want to use him to call him back to Beijing." Shi Fangzhen excitedly shook the paper in his hand.

Liu Weiguo smiled and said, "Jiang Anyi is a talent you personally selected, which means that Long live your keen eye to recognize people. However, I have some questions. Even if this Lord Jiang has the ability, he will never be able to do so many major things within a year and a half. Will there be any untrue things?"

Shi Fangzhen looked at Liu Wei Guodao with his eyes slanted: "Liu Weiguo, do you get the benefits of Jiang Anyi's opponent? Why do you always go against him?"

Liu Weiguo quickly knelt down on the ground and said, "Long live, I know, Long live, Lord Jiang valued Lord Jiang. I am afraid that Lord Jiang is young and inexperienced. To show his political achievements, I intend to deceive him. If you lose your face, it will be unbeautiful."

Shi Fangzhen gently kicked Liu Weiguo who was kneeling beside him with his feet, and cursed with a smile: "Get up, I know your loyalty, I don't need to express it anymore. Although Jiang Anyi is a little impatient in dealing with people, I can still trust what he does. Besides, there is a report from Lizhou Prefecture and the Longwei spy also mentioned Fuluo County. These numbers should not be wrong. Jiang Anyi was demoted to Fuluo County for deceiving me. He should have a memory and dare not deceive me anymore."

Shi Fangzhen put the performance of Fuluo County aside and found out the performance of Pingchun County in Bingzhou, which was also the word "upper". Shi Fangzhen was very happy. Wei Youcheng was his beloved son-in-law. He had the ability to serve in Pingchun County and had a bright face as the emperor.

"Well, it's not bad. Youcheng's child is really good. He was born in a wealthy family. He can endure hardships and do something down-to-earth. I think he is no worse than Jiang Anyi." Of course, his son-in-law prefers it. Pingchun County's five performances are also very good. Except for population growth and land reclamation, the other three are above Fuluo County.

Shi Fangzhen knew in his heart that Wei Youcheng was his son-in-law and Wei Xiang's grandson would try his best to help him from top to bottom. It was much easier for him to do something than Jiang Anyi. However, even so, Wei Youcheng really made him look up to him. He made no mistake in his son-in-law. Thinking of An Shou's complaints, Shi Fangzhen smiled and said in his heart: "Girl, you will understand the painstaking efforts of his father in the future."

After looking through the performance of others, they were all above "middle and upper" and above. The implementation of "tax-to-one" has led to a significant increase in taxes in these counties compared with the previous year, which made Shi Fangzhen feel very happy. Duan Cizong of Chuzhou also came to the memorial to claim that the taxes in Chuzhou will increase by 140,000 yuan this year, and the implementation of "tax-to-one" is smooth.

A little eunuch came in and whispered a few words in Liu Weiguo's ear. Liu Weiguo waved his hand and asked him to retreat. Shi Fangzhen asked, "What's the matter?"

"Queen, please live your life, you go to Kun'an Palace during dinner. The Empress has something to say to you."

"knew."

Princess Anshou was not in the palace, and Shi Fangzhen went to Kun'an Palace less and less, which made Queen Wang a little uneasy, so she often found some excuses to let the emperor go, which made Shi Fangzhen feel disgusted.

The imperial study room was quiet, and Shi Fangzhen reviewed the memorial. Prince Shi Chongwei came in from outside and saluted, "I have seen my father."

Shi Fangzhen looked up at the prince and asked, "Is there anything wrong with the emperor?"

"My son sent Mr. Jiang's diary to his father for his reading." Shi Chongwei said respectfully.

"Oh, you've seen it, why not tell me."

Shi Chongwei responded to "yes" and began to learn what was written in Jiang Anyi's diary. The "Huang Yang Ming" mentioned it first. Shi Chongwei praised: "Master Jiang's ambition is truly admirable, and his sons all want to go to Huang Yang Academy to take a look."

Shi Fang really didn't comment. If Huangyang Academy could rise, he would be happy to see his success as the Zechang Academy, Zhangyi Academy and Imperial College. The talents trained by the academy were not serving him, but it would probably take decades to wait for Huangyang Academy to rise.

There is no record in the diary of "Songchang Tower". Calculate the time, which should be after the diary. However, in the diary, Jiang Anyi wrote another poem: The plain forest is deserted and the smoke is weaving, and the cold mountain area is sad. The dark color enters the tall building, and some people are sad on the building. The jade steps are empty, and the birds are flying back and flying in a hurry. Where is the way back? The long pavilion is connected to the short pavilion.

Shi Fangzhen put down his pen and frowned and said, "Why is this poem full of sorrow and separation? The words reveal the meaning of homework between the lines."

Shi Chongwei smiled and said, "My father said very well, and Master Zhou said the same thing. He said that this poem is full of melancholy sadness in Luotuo."

Master Zhou, formerly appointed as the Water Department of the Ministry of Works, Zhou Chucun, was promoted to secretary-general because of the pomelo lamp. From being down from the sixth rank to being up from the sixth rank, he was promoted to the secretary-general. At the beginning of the year, the emperor chose people to leave Beijing, and his name was originally on the list, but Zhou Chucun stayed in the capital through the prince's mercy and on the grounds that the prince's studies were made. He pleased the prince everywhere, and Shi Chongwei liked him very much.

Shi Fangzhen recited this poem in his heart, and it turned out to be as Zhou Chucun said that Luo Tuo was melancholy. Shi Fangzhen lowered his face. Could it be that Jiang Anyi had a resentful heart? He was dissatisfied with his exile to Fuluo County?

Liu Weiguo was most familiar with the emperor's psychology. Seeing Shi Fangzhen's face was gloomy, he sighed in his heart that Jiang Anyi was going unlucky. Thinking that he had accidentally opposed him twice today, he helped him this time. So he smiled and said, "Your Highness, you don't know. The emperor just read a "Songchang Tower Note" by Lord Jiang. In this article, Lord Jiang went to the country to worry about slander and ridicule, and was relaxed and happy, and forgot about favor and disgrace. He was really passionate and hard to grasp."

"Oh, Father, where is the Songchang Tower Inscription by Master Jiang? Can you let me see it?"

Shi Fangzhen picked up the "Songchang Tower Notes" and handed it to Shi Chongwei, with a smile on his face. Yes, Jiang Anyi has a literati mentality, sad about spring and autumn. Why do I care about these things? Forget it, since he missed his family, I will announce that he will return to Beijing next year.
