Chapter 650 Birthday Gift to Wang Anshi(1/2)
After sending him to Zong Liang, Gao Gonghui, Zhao Xu lies half on the bed, and reviews it in his heart with his eyes closed.
"Xiang Zongliang and Gao Gongji came out to teach Mingzhou and Fujian, there should be no major obstacles."
In the first month of next year, Cai Que will be sent to the Fujian Observation Envoy.
He himself wanted to go back to the court.
However, Zhao Xu did not intend to let him return to the court.
A former prime minister, and a former prime minister who obeys the imperial power and is loyal to him.
But it's very useful!
So, Zhao Xu has already planned it.
Let Cai Que and Chen Mu change, Chen Mu goes to Fujian, and Cai Que goes to Zhejiang.
Of course, this requires work, and Cai Que has to be willing to go to Zhejiang.
Fortunately, Zhao Xu has always paid great attention to details.
Since Cai Que went to Fujian, Zhao Xu would send an envoy to visit him every month or two.
At the same time, Cai Que's family in Beijing were also well taken care of.
There are condolences during festivals and birthdays, and there are commendations and encouragement.
The others are similar.
Like Zhang Dun’s old father, Zhang Yu, this year, Zhao Xu personally sent someone to send the congratulatory articles written by himself.
Thinking of this, Zhao Xu remembered an important thing.
So he sat upright, called Feng Jing in front of him, and at the same time he held his left and right back.
"Everyone, what are your instructions?" Feng Jing asked carefully after waiting for both left and right.
"The birth date of Wang Sikong in Jiangning next month, the two palaces have been selected to congratulate him, and the messenger to give him the gift?" Zhao Xu asked.
Wang Anshi's birthday is November 13th.
There is only more than a month left, and it takes seven days to go from Bianjing to Jiangning, and it goes downstream without delaying the journey.
Therefore, the two palaces should choose envoys in recent days and prepare to set off. In order to arrive in Jiangning on time before Wang Anshi's birthday and send gifts in time, they usually set off half a month in advance.
Zhao Xu remembered that the messenger of last year set out around mid-October.
"I don't seem to have chosen it yet..." Feng Jing replied.
"If the two palaces choose envoys, you must tell me immediately."
"No!" Feng Jing nodded.
"If anyone asks who the Emperor's Palace wants to appoint as an envoy, you will choose Tong Guan to go." Zhao Xu also instructed him.
"promise!"
...
Two days later, October Dinghai (third day of the lunar calendar).
Yongningfang, the old Tiger Wing Army barracks.
In this past year, the imperial guard camp of two or three thousand tiger wing troops was abandoned more than ten years ago.
It immediately became a residential area for the families of the imperial guards. Countless low sheds spread rapidly, turning half of Yongningfang into a noisy and chaotic place.
In the depths of this abandoned military camp, the former arsenal warehouse of the Tiger Wing Army has always been guarding this place because of its special nature, and has not been swallowed up by the surrounding shacks.
Now, this arsenal of that year has been rebuilt.
It becomes a partitioned room after partition.
At the door of each wing room, there is a sign hanging with room numbers such as A, B, C and D on it.
In the wing room, there are large bunk beds, each bunk bed is neatly stacked with quilts. In front of the bunk bed is a wooden pillar connected to the roof, and cloth bags are hung on them, and text embroidered on them: Bianjing Xinbao.
And above the walls of these wing rooms, lime is used and lines of slogans are painted.
Tong Guan led a boy through one wing after another.
Then, he stopped in front of a wing room.
"Get in!" He said to the boy who followed him: "From today, you will live in this room No. 2..."
He reached out his hand and took out a wooden sign from his sleeve: "This is your number sign."
The little boy took the wooden sign.
The front of the wooden sign is carved with the six-character seal script of the new newspaper newspaper in Bianjing.
On the back is his name and the number in the Bianjing New News.
Gao Qiu, Yongning Bing No. 8.
This means that he is a newspaper boy in the Yongningfang Branch of the Bianjing Xinbao. At the same time, the wing room he is in is Bingzifang and the place where he sleeps is the eighth shop.
Next to it is a small regular script that reads: Gao Dunhou, the official in the Bianjing Street Office, was the father of Gao Qiu. It was indeed proved that there were no offenders in the third generation.
The little boy named Gao Qiu walked into the wing room in a daze. Everything inside made him extremely unfamiliar and nervous.
However, this child has super adaptability and psychological qualities, so he did not show it. Instead, he took the license plate well and found his place in this wing room, and then put the things he brought in his place one by one.
Tong Guan only took a look, then turned around and ordered an instructor beside him: "You should know the situation of this child, right?"
The insurgent lowered his head and said, "The official has already read the file."
"Yes!" Tong Guan said: "He will leave it to you for discipline in the future."
"If you fail, you don't need to inform someone and just clear them."
"Now!" The inner minister nodded.
Tong Guan patted his shoulder: "Do it well! This year's Mojian, I'll give you a middle-aged and lower-level person."
The instructor immediately was ecstatic and thanked him repeatedly.
Under the Song Dynasty system, the so-called grinding and surveying, as the name suggests, is divided into two systems: grinding and ketan.
Grinding represents time, and beneficiary represents assessment.
Therefore, people at that time said: The method of meshing and surveying is to use the method to calculate the years and merits and demerits.
In this system, the time represented by grinding is generally fixed.
Only the evaluation represented by the representative can reduce or increase the time required for transfer.
The evaluation system was determined in the Tang Dynasty and was divided into three levels, nine levels, upper, middle and lower.
However, because of the Confucian idea of the doctrine of the mean, the evaluation of the above, the above, the above, the above, the below, the above, the above, the below cannot be touched by ordinary people.
Those who can get it must make similar achievements to saving the world.
Similarly, the following assessments are not something that people can get.
All I got were sure of beasts and scumbags.
Therefore, the middle and upper evaluation is already the ceiling that everyone can touch.
If you can get a middle or upper level, you can basically lock in the qualification for grinding reduction and survey.
And in this system, middle and lower are equivalent to excellence.
There are great advantages in relocation.
In the system of Bianjing Xinbao, a private official like him who is responsible for discipline can almost lock in the future business of Yongningfang.
Once this is the case, for a small yellow sect like him, it is equivalent to getting the official position.
It is equivalent to a miscellaneous official who is not a member of the civil servants who are transferred to a regular officer to a select person.
This is a leap of class! It is also a rise in status!
Tong Guan didn't bother much about this matter.
In his eyes, this was just that he could not resist his face and reluctantly agreed to the request of the street officials.
This is not the first time he has done this kind of thing.
In the past six or seven months, he has brought at least dozens of children from Kaifeng Prefecture clerks to Bianjing Xinbao as newspaper boys.
no way!
This newspaper boy is so good!
After entering the Bianjing New News, although I have to be regulated, I have to go out to sell newspapers every day with people.
But here we can control food and accommodation, and we can learn various techniques for free.
Since the beginning of this year, Bianjing Xinbao has sent two or three hundred apprentices to the Imperial Medical Bureau, Astronomical Bureau, Dushui Supervision, Specialized Military Weapons Bureau and other departments.
In addition, Bianjing mathematics, law and martial arts also gave many boys.
Even the Imperial Academy stuffed in about ten.
