Prodigal Son of the Ming Dynasty

  Chapter 1092 Microservice Private Interview

  Zhu Houzhao is a military genius.

  Fang Jifan did not deny this at all.

  Among his philosophy of life, no one in this world is worthless, even a lump of X is worth using.

   Not to mention, His Royal Highness the Prince.

  Zhu Houzhao was obviously not satisfied with Professor Fang Jifan's method.

   When it comes to military affairs, Zhu Houzhao has always been unconvinced by the other party's successor.

  But just because a person is good at fighting does not mean that he can cultivate talents.

  So for Zhu Houzhao's dissatisfaction, Fang Jifan just smiled.

  How about it? If you are not convinced, I am their mentor. I can teach as I want, you care about me?

Zhu Houzhao clasped his hands behind his back, angrily, and seemed to know that he couldn't decide this matter, so he couldn't help feeling: "It's a pity, such a clever son of Bengong, it's a pity, he could have been a little champion." of…"

   A sigh of emotion.

  Wang Jinyuan hurried over: "His Royal Highness, Young Master, Liu Jin... Liu Jin asks to see you."

  Jin Liu...

  Zhu Houzhao subconsciously said: "Who is Liu Jin?"

  Fang Jifan was also a little confused.

   Scratching his head for a long time, he suddenly realized: "Oh, it's this grandson."

  Zhu Houzhao also remembered: "He is back, isn't he in Dingxing County? Why, he still left his post without authorization?"

  Fang Jifan said: "Call first."

   After a while, Liu Jin came out of breath.

  He has gained a lot of weight, his face is full of oil, and he can't be recognized without looking carefully.

  As soon as he saw Zhu Houzhao and Fang Jifan, he bowed his head and bowed: "My servant has met His Royal Highness, and my grandson has met God."

  Zhu Houzhao cocked his feet and looked at Fangliang: "You bastard, you are so fat. In the future, you will come to serve me, or I will serve you."

   Liu Jin was about to cry: "Slave..."

  Fang Jifan suppressed his hand, seeing that his grandson has gained weight, he should be happy.

  Being a grandfather has a different mood than being a master. A master is picky about his servants, but being a grandfather is different.

  Fang Jifan said kindly, "Why did you come back in such a hurry?"

   "There is a big event. A few days ago, Wu Kuan, the right servant of the Ministry of Officials, went to various prefectures in the capital for inspections. The slaves felt that something was wrong, so they sent people to inquire carefully. Only then did they know... This Beijing inspection is unfair."

  Jingcha...is a big deal.

  Generally, the Ministry of Officials is responsible, and the Minister of the Ministry of Officials takes the lead to evaluate the officials in Beijing.

  When Emperor Hongwugao was here, it was stipulated that the exam should be held every three years, but since then it has been changed to every ten years. When Emperor Hongzhi came to the throne, he seemed to think that the examination every ten years was too long, so he stipulated that it should be held every six years.

The Beijing inspection once every six years is of great importance. In the Beijing inspection, it is divided into four categories and eight methods to evaluate an official's integrity, politics, talent, and years. From integrity to ability, to talent and age, there is no one. Not included in the investigation. Each of their grades is classified into three grades of competence, diligence, and service to evaluate the quality of officials.

  Zhu Houzhao has no interest in Jingcha at all, and feels that Liu Jin is making a fuss out of a molehill.

   But Fang Jifan took it very seriously.

  The relationship between Beijing and Cha is very important, which is directly related to the evaluation of an official: "Ouyang Zhi, how about Sige?"

   Liu Jindao: "Prefect Ouyang, no matter in terms of integrity, age, ability and talent, they are all excellent and included in the list of competent."

  Fang Jifan was relieved, and couldn't help beaming with joy: "That's right, I, Fang Jifan, don't believe it anymore. The officials are so courageous. They dare to wear small shoes for Ouyang Zhi. They can't beat them to death."

   Obviously, this is the optimal evaluation.

  But next...Liu Jin is waiting for Ai Ai.

  Fang Jifan asked: "You continue to talk, it's just...just...the county magistrates of the counties below Baoding Prefecture are all poor in evaluation, for example, the county magistrate of Boye County, all four qualifications are for posts...

  Serving...

   This job is the third class.

Ranked at the bottom, although it is called 'service', but this is a shameful term. It basically means that this person is not talented, his character is average, and his ability to govern is very bad. If it is more popular, this person is just a mediocre official .

   This may be direct dismissal.

"Among the eight counties under the jurisdiction of Baoding Prefecture, there are seven of them who are at the bottom of the list, and one of them is just a hard worker." Liu Jin said indignantly: "But looking at Tongzhou, it's different. Tongzhou only It governs four counties, but these four counties are all first-class 'competent', and they are commendable among the prefectures of Gyeonggi.

"My servant is thinking, isn't this intentionally done by the officials? Even though they listed the prefect of Ouyang as the first-class competent, in fact, they completely denied the achievement of the new policy of Baoding Mansion. Instead, the Tongzhou Mansion... It was rated as excellent, and the evaluation of Tongzhou by the Ministry of Officials is that the county is well governed, the common people don’t pick up things on the road, and they don’t close their doors at night, so it is the best place for the capital.”

"My servant feels wronged. Tongzhou has become the most benevolent place. Doesn't this mean that this new policy is due to Yang Yiqing's contribution and has nothing to do with the gods and the prefect of Ouyang? Sun'er thinks that the officials are too black-hearted, so after thinking about it, I'm here to tell the godfather, this matter can't be left like this."

  Fang Jifan suddenly thought of the meaningful expression of Emperor Hongzhi when he mentioned Baoding Mansion. Obviously, His Majesty had already read the report of the Ministry of Officials.

  Fang Jifan vomited blood angrily: "That **** Wu Kuan is so black-hearted."

  Zhu Houzhao hurriedly said: "You calm down, calm down, it's just a Jingchao, father may not believe it."

  Liu Jin kowtowed: "This... is really possible to believe."

   "What?" Zhu Hou looked at Liu Jin, puzzled.

Liu Jindao: "His Royal Highness, the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty are not talking about Yang Yiqing. His Majesty may not believe it at first, but everyone talks about it. Everyone says that Tongzhou is a paradise. If you want to believe it, you can't believe it. Furthermore, Wu Kuan, the right servant of the Ministry of Officials who presides over Jingcha, when His Majesty was the crown prince, Wu Kuan lectured for the Eastern Palace. He is an upright gentleman, and Wu Kuan is indeed a very good official in the court, and he has never made any mistakes. The servants also heard that among the officials, Wu Kuan has not bought a house in Xincheng. He is really poor. Wife, she is wearing coarse clothes. Last year, His Majesty heard about this situation and gave him special praise."

"Your Highness, God, do you think, such a person, will His Majesty not believe his words? Will His Majesty question the results of this Beijing inspection? I am afraid that it will not be long before the Ministry of Officials will come out with a merit test. Soon, Many officials in Baoding Mansion will be dismissed, their evaluations are really too low."

  Fang Jifan was furious.

  If it's a corrupt official, that's fine. After all, this kind of person is not very harmful. Even if he talks about breaking the sky, no one will believe him.

   It may be like Wu Kuanzhong's so-called Qingliu, the so-called gentleman, is the most speechless, because of his 'integrity' and 'cleanness', everyone believes in him. But such a person obviously has his own values, and his personal likes and dislikes can make a group of people suffer because of him.

Obviously, Wu Kuan, who is a Qingliu, looks down on those officials promoted by Ouyang Zhi. However, the worries among the scholar-liners about the small officials being able to become officials naturally made these so-called "clear people" more stubbornly use their own prejudices to attack these "heterogeneous" in the officialdom.

  Fang Jifan jumped up suddenly: "Check to see if the person surnamed Wu owes money to Xishan Bank, and urge him to repay the loan."

   "I've checked it." Liu Jin said: "God, didn't you just say that he didn't buy a house, and he couldn't afford a car."

  Fang Jifan was at a loss for words for a moment: "Then he must have a son, right? His son doesn't have the habit of peeking at people taking a bath?"

   Liu Jin said dumbfoundedly: "He has no son, only two daughters, and they were all married a long time ago."

  Zhu Houzhao patted the table: "You can find any excuses, just hit him, why is there so much talk, this person is really annoying, my palace is in Baoding Prefecture, and there are quite a few lands."

Liu Jin hurriedly said: "His Royal Highness, you can't fight. This person... In terms of speaking, he can be regarded as one of His Majesty's eight masters, and he is also a servant of the official department. His reputation is too high. If he could fight, the slaves would have ordered him to be arrested." Drag him to the Temple of the City God and beat him to the ground."

  Fang Jifan looked extremely calm, and couldn't help saying: "Poor Ouyang Zhi..."

   "What?" Zhu Houzhao and Liu Jin both looked at Fang Jifan.

Fang Jifan said with emotion: "If he knew the results of the Beijing inspection, he must be extremely wronged. Among so many students, I value him the most. He is in Baoding Mansion. He is working so hard, forgetting to eat and sleep. Who knows, but he is not tolerated... His uncle of!"

  Fang Jifan stomped his feet: "His Royal Highness, you clean up the guy, and you go beat him tomorrow."

   "Oh." Zhu Houzhao nodded sharply: "Aren't you going?"

  Fang Jifan said: "I...I...I want to keep a useful body."

  Zhu Houzhao: "..."

  Suddenly, Zhu Houzhao became a little scared, and muttered: "Every time it's me, or else, find someone who can kill a thousand swords."

   Talking...

  Zhu Hou looked at Liu Jin...

  Liu Jin shivered, trembling: "Your maidservant... you can't, your maidservant should keep a useful body, honor His Royal Highness, and serve the grandpa. The servant girl is too fat to win."

  Fang Jifan became calm again: "Whoever said that we must fight, right and wrong, seeing is believing... Baoding Mansion and Tongzhou have good political achievements, just ask Your Majesty to come, don't you know everything?"

"So..." Fang Jifan said: "Only by allowing His Majesty to leave the palace, can this grievance be cleared away, but...you can't leave the palace with a big fanfare. ...how can I let His Majesty pay a private visit?"

  Zhu Houzhao narrowed his eyes: "Did I trick my great-grandmother into coming out?"

  Fang Jifan: "..."

   "Can you change the method."

  Zhu Houzhao tilted his head, thinking for a long time: "Tie the queen mother?"
