But obviously the emperor was not prepared to let this newcomer who was not just a newcomer in the officialdom intervene in the major military deployment of the parties. He just said casually: "I already know that you don't need to say much about this matter. You will focus on local government affairs in the next few years, so that I can take a good look at the new atmosphere."

Obviously, with a young man with no political achievements, it was impossible to persuade the emperor to adjust his strategy. After Zheng Yunming failed in his attempt, he immediately realized the hardness of reality. He then kowtowed and thanked him, and gave the stage of the banquet to the emperor and civil and military officials again.

After the second round of drinking, many court officials with identities had already stood up to congratulate Zheng Qing, the tiger father, no son, and the father and son were both talented as prime ministers. Zheng Yunming, who was already a little drunk, was quietly pulled to the side corridor by one person.

Zheng Yunming was dizzy, and when he looked closely, he realized that he was his mentor.

Since Jin Dexiu got infected with cold last year, she has been in poor health, but the situation has been tense recently and she has only barely taken care of the disease. This time she attended the banquet because she was the priest, but she barely followed her. But after his disciple sang this at the banquet, he had to give some advice in private.

"Teacher should take care of your health. You are the hope of the scholars of the world. If there is any mistake, it will be an irreparable loss to the entire Song Dynasty." Zheng Yunming's words were not ordinary polite words, all of which were sincere. Not to mention the friendship between teachers and students, just Master Shi was the best in the academic circles of the Southern Song Dynasty. His physical health was a very important thing for the country.

"It's okay, I'm so old, I can stand for a while." Although Zhen Dexiu had been in office for many years, he couldn't help but speak in his hometown in Fujian: "Do you know that some local officials are talking about you recently."

"About...student? Students are just one of the hundreds of new Jinshi students. How is it worth discussing in important places?"

"Haha, it's not someone else, it's the Shi Jian in Jinghu." Even if Zhen Dexiu didn't point it out, Zheng Yunming could guess. Shi Songzhi, the commander of Jinghu, and the nephew of former Prime Minister Shi Miyuan, were outstanding talents in the Shi family. The talent and knowledge he developed through many years of practice and practice, became even more invincible in the officialdom of uncle. He soared all the way. He had a major town in Jinghu at a young age and became one of the pillars of the court.

When Shi Miyuan died of illness, Shi Songzhi was supported by several former prime ministers and cliques, and was in a key place to command the military and civilians. He thought that the position of prime minister was the only one who was the prime minister. However, the court's discussion believed that it was too young to make this young boy take on the important responsibilities, and the emperor did not want to appoint a young Shi Gong to inherit his specialty after a Shi Gong was taken away by God.

The result of the game made Zheng Qingzhi, who had always been Shi Miyuan's confidant and engaged in low-key role, take over the position of left prime minister. From then on, Shi Songzhi regarded Zheng Gong as a thorn in his eyes and always wanted to find his bad luck.

"Since Shi Jianzhi has already submitted a message to beg for bones, what he said will have no effect on the court." Zheng Yunming breathed a sigh of relief when he thought of this joint.

"After learning for so many years, why do you still use others to speak?" Zhen Dexiu taught a lesson: "I said that as long as you speak in accordance with the truth, even if Qin Hui and Cai Jing's words are, you might as well use them. Do not use others' words. After all, who do you think Shi Songzhi is better than you?"

"The teacher doesn't have to play a puzzle with me anymore. I think he either compared me to Ruan Ji or Ji Kang. In short, he is an example of being unpatriotic and unrestrained."

"You are wrong. He compared you to Wang Jiefu."

Zheng Yunming was shocked and said, "How could it be Wang Jinggong? The students are not easy to learn, and they do not have the heart of the country, and their poetry is even more messy. Could it be that the students are as sloppy as him?"

"Yeah, you know your shortcomings very clearly." Zhen Dexiu laughed out loud by Zheng Yunming: "I heard that one day Shi Songzhi was talking about the descendants of the people of the current dynasty in the back hall. The man thought that Prime Minister Zheng's yamen, that is, you, had many unruly behaviors and did not distinguish between high and low, and often mingled with craftsmen and merchants, which was called unvirtuous. Shi Songzhi did not agree with it. He said that someone saw you reading at night with candles every night, and was definitely not a rich family who had no pursuit. But those who could make friends with heroes in the world and study hard would definitely achieve extraordinary results in the future."

"Students just make a few rude friends, so why did they get involved with Wang Anshi?" At that time, people regarded Wang Anshi's new policy as the first sinner to the fall of the Northern Song Dynasty, so Zheng Yunming called him the name Zhendexiu and didn't feel abrupt.

"Why isn't it? You often talk about Wang Jiefu's new policy. It's because the application of policies is not in line with the law and the employment of people does not follow the system, so it's backfiring. Is this what you said?"

"This...how did this be transmitted to the ears of the commander?" Zheng Yunming couldn't help but feel creepy. His casual discussion could be known by people thousands of miles away. This is too much.

"Why can't a person like him who is diligent in the official career collect all kinds of information? The teacher is not talking about this. Think about it, since Shi Songzhi saw the shadow of the new party in you, how can others not see it? But you boasted about Haikou in front of His Majesty, and it will take three years to change. How can a prefecture and county that was originally well-run and take over the people's strength? There is nothing else, just step up the plunder of people's wealth and exploit people's strength. If you use this as the way to advance, don't mention it again in the future!"

"What does the teacher say? If you don't change anything, you can make a big change within three years!"

"Hey, it's your theory of saving the country by making tools again. The teacher told you that those who govern should not be addicted to tricks. The laws of nature are in the hearts of the people. When you go to the local area, you will be able to do good governance. Naturally, the people will be at peace and peace. If you spend manpower and material resources to carry out your reform of the equipment, it will easily harm the people's strength."

"Teachers can rest assured that students' innovation will not be at the cost of harm to the people. Everything depends on the current situation and can be flexibly mastered."

"Well, you are also a parent in Baili now. No matter how much a teacher says, it is not as important as the political achievements you have achieved on the spot. There are many teachers who have nothing to worry about, so I will give you eight words, "The world is in me, the road is for the public." As a gift for your appointment."

"'The world is in me, the great way is for the public'" Zheng Yunming recited it silently and said in his heart, why did he say this Sun Yat-sen's inscription to the teacher first?

"Then that's it, let's go back to the meal." Zhen Dexiu said and wanted to turn around. Zheng Yunming hurriedly asked, "Do you know what position the student has received this time?"

"This, Mr. Hong told me a little about it. This time I will take care of you. Now that Jinghu is short of staff, you will be promoted directly to Jinghu Transportation Commander."

"Jinghu? Then my immediate boss isn't it..." Zheng Yunming suddenly woke up: "Isn't it my brother Shi Songzhi?"

It is a very important thing to be expelled from an official position for the first time in life. The distance and quality of being assigned to an official position will determine whether these new bureaucrats will have a smooth career in their future lives.

Sometimes being assigned to Xia County is not the worst outcome. You should know that some Xia County were originally fertile and had abundant resources, but it was because of a certain natural disaster and man-made disaster.

Officials have almost no need to do anything when they take office. They just need to wait for the natural disaster to pass. The people who are fleeing abroad will return to their hometowns, start sowing grains, and manage all industries. It can only be promoted to Zhongxian County in a few years, and it is very possible to go to the county. Such political achievements are written in the resume of the first official position, and it is very dazzling for any upsurge who is eager to do talent.

There are different things in the county. Although it is a good foundation for a wide range of fields and prosperity in all industries, the achievements of the ex often make the successors far beyond reach.

The new parents can only do some repairs based on the gloriousness of their predecessors. This kind of political achievements that are slightly icing on the cake is the most thankless. However, when the prefecture urges to transfer food and wages, the county, with its strong manpower and financial resources, was always able to exceed the amount stated by the above.

Not to mention that local officials have a piece of fat land, even a gentleman who enjoys the reputation of "integrity" will involuntarily accumulate a considerable amount of wealth. In charge of Fushu County, it is really much easier to make a profit than selling salt to go overseas.

The most dangerous place is the so-called Zhongxian. The fields in these places are still arable, and the people are still stable. But in fact, they are already in a dangerous balance. Anything, such as the tribute urging of a royal wedding, the invasion of bandits in the neighboring world, or the urging of food and wages on the front line, may break the balance on this cliff.

In the middle households, the poor households with only a month of food storage, and the landless ones are just barely living. Even the powerful family in the village is not enough to cope with the greedy demands of bloody giant mouths. As long as the new local officials encounter such a disaster during their term of office for a few years, they will immediately flee, the fields are deserted, and the streets are depressed.

Zhongxian quickly fell into Xiaxian, but these young people had no experience in dealing with such a situation. Not to mention appease the people and revitalize production, even if it is the best way to shirke responsibility in the officialdom, they don’t know what to do. And the first step in their official career was marked with the four words “mediocrity and incompetence”. It would be harder to turn things around in the future.

Of course, there is another kind of county that is even worse than the dangerous Zhongxian.

When Zheng Yunming became an official, he had to devote himself to this worst situation. He would face hardships and twists and turns in the future. Let’s put the good and bad future development aside for the time being. If he is not lucky, he will lose his head.
