Wei and Jin cooks

Zhao Hanzhang nodded, she thought so too, "Xuzhou is the closest to Yangzhou, and the situation is complicated. Ji Yuan and Ming Yu both came from poor families. Now, apart from you and Director Wang, he and Zu Ti are the only governors in the states who can get close to the aristocratic family. , replacing him rashly may cause dissatisfaction in the family and turmoil in the current situation, so I want to carefully choose a replacement."

Zhao Ming also had a headache when he saw Liu Kun surrounding Tuoba Yilu, "To transfer him back to the capital, he must be promoted, otherwise it will be difficult for the noble family. But what kind of official can he be in the capital?"

Zhao Hanzhang said: "That's a lot. My sworn brother is still very cute. I want to separate the Honglu Temple into the Ministry of Rites and set up the post of Da Honglu, and he will be responsible for it."

Zhao Ming thought about it for a while and found that Liu Kun was really suitable for this position. He couldn't help but cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty is wise."

Zhao Hanzhang laughed, looked at the entangled two people in the distance and said: "Wait a little longer, wait until he can sort out the situation in Xuzhou and calm people's hearts before mobilizing."

Zhao Ming paused for a moment and then inquired: "Who does your Majesty think is suitable?"

Zhao Hanzhang did not say who was suitable, but turned to Zhao Shen, "I want Zhao Shen to go to Guangzhou, what does Uncle Ming think?"

Guangzhou is not the prosperous Guangzhou of the previous life, but covers all of Guangdong and Guangxi, as well as parts of Fujian and Jiangxi. It is all hilly and mountainous. As far as the eye can see, 99% of it is virgin forest, filled with miasma, and the roads are impassable. Baiyue and Xiou are very free inside.

They were so free that they did not recognize the imperial court and only submitted to their own tribe. If the imperial court tried to collect taxes from them, they would fight fiercely and attack the imperial court in turn.

When the court wanted to catch them, they slipped into the mountains and forests, just like fish into the river, without even a shadow being seen.

They are also uneducated. If you tell them about propriety, justice and shame, they won't listen. If you tell them about loyalty, filial piety, benevolence and justice, they will sneer at it. Therefore, Guangzhou is considered a bitter and cold place like the Far North. Officials who go there are basically exiled. , or have no future.

Why did Dai Yuan feel resentful towards Wang Dun? Wasn't it because he was excluded by him and went to Guangzhou?

Zhao Ming's mind was spinning, and his thoughts slipped over "The emperor wants to suppress the Zhao family and limit the power of the Zhao family", and then settled on another idea, "Your Majesty wants to use Baiyue and Xiou to temper Zhao Shen?"

Zhao Hanzhang said: "Zhao Shen is very knowledgeable and has seen the sufferings of life. He also has his own way of fighting, but he is too arrogant. Even if he is among beggars, he is willing to eat and live with them. We live and die together with them, but everything is fake, just like Gou Xi."

"If he just wants to be a famous and powerful minister like Gou Xi, he can do it if he continues like this, but if he wants to be famous forever, it is far from enough."

Gou Xi did not die well.

Zhao Ming sighed deeply, "Finally someone has the same idea as me. Your Majesty, if I have no objection, let him go to Guangzhou. If Guangzhou is not enough to train him well, let him go to the Western Regions and the Northern Desert. Let him go wherever it is bitter and cold. where."

With a character like Zhao Shen, he cannot be in a place of wealth and comfort, otherwise bad things will happen.

Take Gou Xi for example. If he had been at a disadvantage all his life, he would have always been a loyal and fair minister, but because the King of Donghai died, he went to the emperor's side, so he became like that.

In just two years, the reputation accumulated in the previous twenty years has been ruined, and it is no longer safe.

It is more difficult for Zhao Shen to realize his own problems than Gou Xi, because Gou Xi is still pretending consciously, but Zhao Shen is not. He thinks that he is loyal, filial, benevolent and righteous, and he has always held himself to the standards of loyalty, filial piety, benevolence and righteousness.

He just thinks that ordinary people do not possess these qualities.

Zhao Ming was already eager to try, "When will His Majesty give the order to transfer him to Guangzhou?"

Seeing that Zhao Ming was more anxious than himself, Zhao Hanzhang showed rare sympathy for Zhao Shen, "There's no need to be so anxious."

Zhao Ming turned to ask: "Your Majesty, you want to support Mrs. Wang in the palace?"

Zhao Hanzhang nodded, "Erlang is at the border, and my mother still lives with me to avoid loneliness. The imperial edict for the canonization of the Queen Mother will be issued tomorrow."

"Princess Hongnong's side..."

Zhao Hanzhang said: "I want to make her the eldest princess of the country. The princess does not like the palace. As a junior, she still has to give priority to the preferences of her elders."

Zhao Ming: "Does Ting Han have any objections?"

Zhao Hanzhang nodded.

Zhao Ming sighed and couldn't help but tell Zhao Hanzhang, "Be nicer to him in the future."

Zhao Hanzhang: ...why did she treat him badly? Haven't they always been a good couple?

Lai Qing came forward in small steps, bowed and said, "Your Majesty, Madam, the eldest princess, the Prince Consort and others have already entered the palace. Officials at all levels are also present. The palace banquet will begin in two quarters of an hour."

Zhao Hanzhang turned sideways and said, "Uncle Ming, let's go there too."

Zhao Ming responded with a respectful "Yes" and walked forward half a step behind her, "Your Majesty's assets should be sorted out. What's in the treasury should be handed over to the state, and what's in the private treasury should be handed over to the inner court."

Zhao Hanzhang raised the corner of his mouth slightly and praised: "Uncle Ming, who knows me, I have this plan. Not only do I need to deal with the assets in my hands, but the royal rules must also be established. What can the royal relatives and relatives do? If you can’t do it, you have to make it clear early in the morning.”

Zhao Mingshen agreed, nodded and said: "It must be clearly established, and only if the laws are clear and stipulated can they last long."

He paused for a moment and then said: "Since your Majesty has been honored as a great treasure, the position of head of the Zhao family should also be assumed by your Majesty."

Zhao Hanzhang refused directly. She was already very busy dealing with state affairs, and how tired she would be if she had to deal with clan affairs again.

Zhao Hanzhang said: "I think Uncle Ming is very suitable."

Zhao Ming refused: "The patriarch should be from the direct branch."

Zhao Hanzhang: "Then please ask Uncle Ming to take over for the time being, and wait until Erlang gives birth to a smarter son, and educate him well."

Even now, Zhao Hanzhang still believes that Zhao Ming is a very suitable candidate for the clan leader. He has a successor and Zhao Shen is also smart and capable.

Another reason why she didn't want to be the clan leader was that she was afraid that she would steal money from the clan to fill the treasury, or turn a blind eye out of guilt and let them do things they shouldn't do, and end up with them. People fight for profit, and in order for everyone to get along more harmoniously in the future, there must be a buffer in the middle.

Zhao Ming obviously thought of this quickly and only mentioned it once.

The two went to the back hall first. Wang, the eldest princess and others were taken to the back hall to rest first. Seeing Zhao Hanzhang and Zhao Ming coming hand in hand, Zhao Song and Zhao Hu immediately stood up and knelt down together with Princess Hongnong's consort, " Meet His Majesty the Emperor."

Wang was stunned, stood up hurriedly, and then knelt down. Qinggu grabbed her with quick eyes and hands. Zhao Hanzhang was also startled. He quickly stepped forward and grabbed Princess Hongnong with one hand and Zhao Song with the other. Pulling the person up, he said with shame: "My uncle and my mother scared me. You are the elders. We will not be polite when we meet in the future."

Wang nodded quickly, which also scared her.

Because of the celestial phenomenon, Zhao Song's face was rosy and he felt refreshed. He said with a smile: "There is a difference between superiority and inferiority. This is the etiquette that ministers should fulfill."

Princess Hongnong nodded with deep understanding.

Zhao Ming walked forward unsteadily and changed the subject, "How is father's health?"

Zhao Song said: "It's great without you being angry with me."

Zhao Ming sighed with a look on his face, "My son arrived in Luoyang the day before yesterday. As soon as he entered the house, he heard that his father had been lingering on the bed for more than ten days. He was very worried."

Zhao Song's face turned dark immediately. (End of chapter)
