The Prodigal Son of Zhenguan

"Later, people from the surrounding villages heard that the school here would accept children from our peasant families, so they thought about whether they could let their children learn to read and write." The craftsman sighed: "After working on the farm for so long, I also understand that reading is important. Many places on the farm need to hire people and offer generous rewards, but some jobs are not something that people like us who are illiterate can do. They require people to be able to read and do math."

"Those who meet these requirements can make a lot of money working on the farm all year round, and their families can live better and better. With money, they can build new houses for their families and send their children to the academy to study."

"For people like us, only when there is such a big job on the farm and many people are needed, we have the opportunity to come here to work and earn money to supplement our family income."

"I see many craftsmen working here on the farm. How many people are employed in this academy?" Sun Simiao asked curiously.

"There are more than a thousand people working in this academy. I don't know the exact number. However, there are other places on the farm. King Jingyang wants to build a new house, which also employs hundreds of people. There is also a river dredging. My fellow villager was assigned to that place, which is also a big job."

"A few days ago, another job was completed. There is a workshop on the farm. The workshop was expanded and hundreds of people were also employed." The craftsman said: "After the work over there was completed, people were assigned here, and there is also the river. Before autumn, the river is estimated to be That's it, but I don't know if I will continue to do it in the future. If I have to continue to do it in other places next year, that would be great.

Take care of the fields during the busy farming season, and work and earn money during the slack season. It's much better than living a life of looking at the weather all year round. "

In the small construction site of the new house, Li Fu was holding an iced green bean soup and chatting with Yan Lide. Du Gou was on the side, buried in a pile of affairs, recording constantly in his hands, and fiddling with abacus from time to time.

"The court is going to evaluate officials now, and the next step is to streamline them. Many officials without talent will be released by the court." Li Fu said expressionlessly: "Such officials deserve to be abandoned."

"Old Yan, you don't know, some officials, I don't even want to talk about..."

Li Fu said a lot.

"It's just one case, and it's been several months! They didn't investigate it, but just waited for the court to make a decision and told them what to do."

"One by one, they all shirked their responsibilities and shirked their duties."

"After I went there with the prince, there were so many documents that I couldn't handle them all. If you don't know, you would think they were working hard to investigate this case."

"What was the result? People were arrested for several months, detained for several months, and then nothing happened."

Li Fu was full of complaints.

"Your Majesty and the three ministries should carefully distinguish between officials who work and those who don't when they formulate the official assessment system. Those who don't work should all be fired."

"If I keep them, I will lose money for the national treasury. How much money should I pay out every year?"

"In the future, the selection of officials in the Tang Dynasty should be more strict, so that these officials know that their official positions are hard-won. If their political performance and assessment are not up to standard, they should pack up and leave."

"Don't think every day that once you become an official, you will have a stable job, and then you can relax and stop doing things. Let them report every day and do something for the court and the people. Oh, it's so difficult for them?"

"Why did Yang Zhen, a passerby, kill people?" Yan Lide was curious.

"Yes, His Majesty was also confused and asked why the Ministry of Justice didn't investigate the case." Li Fu spread his hands: "The Ministry of Justice said that they were busy recently and couldn't take care of it, so His Majesty got angry."

"You said, if Yang Zhen was wrongly accused, the case has been delayed for so long, and he has been locked up for nothing in the prison for several months. If Yang Zhen is the murderer, then the family of the store owner is looking forward to the murderer being brought to justice and asking for an explanation for the deceased, but there has been no result for several months."

"But fortunately, His Majesty has sent people to Weizhou to investigate the case." Yan Lide said: "The court Now, it is indeed chaotic, but everything is in order. It will be fine after this period of time. There are too many things to do now, even in the village, there are too many things to do, and people are too busy to handle them. It is inevitable that there will be some negligence. "

"Old Yan, the key is not that you are too busy or negligent, but that you don't do anything, don't dare to do anything, and don't dare to take responsibility. "

"I think, if you are an official and don't even dare to take responsibility, what kind of official is it? Staying at home and doing nothing is good, isn't it safer?"

For this matter, Li Fu just complained moreA little bit, I talked to Yan Lide and complained about it, but I didn't feel that angry.

Just this matter didn't make him become an angry young man or a troll.

Not to mention the Tang Dynasty, which dynasty is not like this?

What's gratifying is that the emperor attaches great importance to such things. This incident also gave the court an opportunity to reorganize various departments. In the future, these redundant staff will be laid off and replaced by a group of practical people.

The emperor's style determines the style of the court officials.

Li Erfeng's style is beyond doubt.

Li Fu can also see a better and better court.

When the original group of old ministers who don't do anything are replaced, the court will be more vibrant.

"From now on, I can't control other places, but whoever does this in our farm should pack up and leave as soon as possible." Li Fu said indifferently: "After all, we are spending money and hiring people."

"Yes, yes, your farm, you have the final say." Yan Lide smiled.

Although Du Gou was concentrating on his own work, he still noticed something in the conversation between Li Fu and Yan Lide.

When it comes to the Ministry of Justice, his father seems to have some relationship with the Ministry of Justice.

In addition, it will be difficult to get an official position in the court in the future if officials are evaluated and redundant personnel are eliminated.

Before this, I was promoted to this farm, which is lucky.

It's also a pity that my father chose this path for me.

Another choice is to serve as a censor and belong to the Censorate. The Censorate was also involved in this case and the dispute. However, the responsibility of the Censorate is not great, and the responsibility cannot be attributed to the Censorate.

The dispute between the Ministry of Justice and the Dali Temple affected them.

Someone came in from outside the door.

"Master Yan..."

After coming in, he saw Li Fu was also there, and he bowed his hands quickly.

"My Lord."

"What happened? You are so flustered." Li Fu asked.
