Centrifugal(1/2)

A few days later, news of peace among the countries in the Western Regions came to the capital. After the Military Affairs Office requested Emperor Long'an, they urgently discussed for a day and approved the Marquis of Anding. Two things need to be ensured: First, the rebels had no power to turn over within three to five years, so as to avoid fire in the backyard when they dealt with foreigners; Second, they wanted purple gold, the more the better, and the danger of the national treasury was temporarily resolved, but the trap of Zi Liujin in Daliang had not yet been relieved. The reason why the four sieges started from the west first was that Xuantie Camp was on this one, and secondly, it was to solve the purple gold problem as quickly as possible.

Other matters of all sizes are decided by Anding Hou himself.

Then Prince Yan went to the palace to meet the saint and gave a brief report on the results of this stage of the war and the Fenghuobao.

Li Feng calculated with his fingers and was almost shocked by the effect of the Fenghuo ticket, and couldn't help but say, "Why are there so many?"

"This is not surprising. The people in the court are anxious about what the emperor is trying to do. There are countless people willing to destroy their families to help them. How can they protect themselves at critical moments? They have done some effort." Chang Geng flattered calmly and said, "As for the people, it is said that 'The merchants will be in summer, and in winter, when they are in drought, and in water, it is in a car to wait for the lack of money'. Those who can become a giant businessman are not only chasing small profit vendors in front of them."

Li Feng pondered for a moment and asked, "Then according to your opinion, what are they going to chase from me?"

Chang Geng said without thinking: "Businessmen have a wealth of wealth, but they also need to go from the wind and rain. To a certain extent, they are not much better than farmers who eat when they look at God's face. Sometimes a decree of the court can make a fortune in the family, or encounter strong men during business trips, and their lives will be lost. Now that the country is in trouble, a group of commerce giants led by Du Wanquan, the richest man in Jiangnan, stood up. On the one hand, it is to serve the country, and on the other hand, isn't they also want to find the emperor's brother to be a backer?"

Li Feng heard too much flattery and was not so easily moved, and looked at Prince Yan with a faint expression.

Chang Geng didn't keep it in a lot of silence, and he hit the railway while it was hot: "It's time to use money now, and the court is planning to issue the second batch of beacon tickets. The emperor sees... should we give these leaders of the chamber of commerce appropriately some sweetness to encourage more people to help?"

Li Feng didn't say anything, and looked at Chang Geng with a strange look.

Sometimes things like "trueness" are time-consuming and expired. For example, when the capital is besieged, Emperor Long'an is full of grief, anger and guilt, wishing to kill him when he was hit by the tomb of the late emperor, and his decision to pass the throne to Chang Geng was sincere. For example, the situation is getting stable, and he sees Chang Geng's perspective slowly deviating with time, and he is also very sincere.

Yan Wang Li Min was in his early twenties and kept it at an ordinary family, but he was still a young boy who had just started to learn to live a life of strategist. However, he eased the danger of strategist in just half a year. At this time, he stood quietly in the West Warehouse Pavilion, with a zhilan and a jade tree, calm and moderate, and indescribable... jealousy.

Just imagine a generation of nine fives. After a few years ascending the throne, they were once sued for two rebellions and caused a rumor of the world, such as the "Beidaying Mutiny", and even the iron hooves of foreign tribes were finally distracted by the people in all directions... After all, all of this was gradually improved in Prince Yan's office to control the military affairs department - what would Li Feng feel like?

How should historians evaluate this history a hundred years later?

Li Feng really didn't want to know at all.

Most importantly, he is still so young.

Li Feng felt a gloomy heart, and his attitude became colder. He said, "All the kings in the world are kings. Since they are the people of Daliang, they are the people of the country and the people, they are all bankrupt. Isn't it a matter of duty? What good is it to me to promise - it's really a buying and selling official positions? What kind of morality is it!"

Chang Geng knew how to observe his expression and expression. As soon as he touched Li Feng's eyes, he immediately knew why the emperor's unreasonable indifference was. Although he was sneering in his heart, his face showed shock and confusion that was not as fake: "Emperor..."

Li Feng interrupted him impatiently: "Okay! How to reward the private businessmen who are very wise and let the Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of Rites work together to make a decision. Just stop at the right time, and don't be too honored and favored."

Chang Geng put on a "depressed" look, and after a while, he reluctantly said "yes".

Li Feng looked at him and suddenly mentioned intentionally or unintentionally: "Wei Shu, the Minister of Personnel, is old. It was raining last night. He got up early and rushed to court. He fell at his home without paying attention and broke his leg. I sent an imperial physician to see it. I am afraid that it will be bad. The Wei family has already handed me a memorial to resign and die... In this way, the position of Minister of Personnel, may it be vacant. Amin, you are in charge of the Military Affairs Office, can anyone recommend it?"

This is a test that is not very clever, but not being clever does not mean that it is ineffective.

For people like Li Feng who are suspicious by nature, whether Chang Geng is following the flow and winning over his own people or answering too much, it is not something Li Feng hopes to see. The former means that he is too ambitious, and the latter means that he is deliberately thinking.

Chang Geng was stunned at first, then instinctively blurted out: "What? What happened to Lord Wei?"

It seemed that he really knew nothing.

After blurting this sentence, Chang Geng seemed to have "realized" and found that he had answered the question, so he frowned and thought for a long time, and sighed in a panic to Emperor Long'an: "This... I forgive my crimes. I have been circling around this little money every day for a while, and I really have no time to take care of it. The memorial of the Ministry of Personnel may not have time to see the memorials of the Ministry of Personnel. This... the position of Shangshu is crucial, and I can't even think of a big choice for the time being..."

Li Feng suspected that he was ruling: "You might as well just say it."

Chang Geng reached out and pressed his close brow, paused, and replied, "In this way, why not the emperor's brother publicly evaluated the court? Anyone who can do it?"

Li Feng: “…”

The answer was really unexpected. Li Feng was stunned by the wild goose King's unruly behavior, and was almost led away by him. He blurted out, "How to take the exam?"

"For example, the official resume, what political achievements have been, how many years of contributions have been recorded," Chang Geng paused slightly, and then continued, "You can also add standards such as whether this person is responsible and knowing the great power, such as whether he has subscribed to Fenghuo Tickets. Speaking of this, I remembered something. In order to successfully implement Fenghuo Tickets in the future, can the emperor also include the number of Fenghuo Tickets in the evaluation criteria? This is not considered selling official positions, right?"

Li Feng: “…”

After talking for a long time, this kid came back again. Li Feng felt that if he had pried open Yan Wang's handsome head at this time, the brain inside would have been formed into the shape of a ingot.

Emperor Longan said laughing and crying: "You... are naughty!"

This time, Chang Geng did not climb along the way and just beg for help. He whispered to the guilt, and there was a little unconcealed sorrow between his eyebrows and eyes.

After such a few words, Li Feng's gloomy doubts in his heart dissipated most of his heart, and it can be seen that Prince Yan's mind is really not in the Ministry of Personnel.

"No matter what," Li Feng said, "he has devoted himself to it."

Thinking of this, Li Feng's expression cleared a little, and he waved to Changgeng and said, "Forget it, you go back first, let me think about it again."

Chang Geng responded and bowed, knowing that this level had been passed.

However, just as he was about to withdraw from the West Warehouse, Li Feng suddenly called him.

"Wait Amin, there is something else," Li Feng said with a happy tone, "You are not young now, and it is too unreasonable to always be alone. You should start a family and start a career."

Chang Geng's heart thrilled.

Li Feng said kindly: "Mr. Fang's granddaughter, the legitimate granddaughter, is seventeen years old and is just waiting for his name. I heard that this girl has a reputation as a scholarly girl. She must be well educated and her background is not a shame. She is a good partner. Your sister-in-law heard that she really wants to do something for you. I would like to ask more questions, if you like it, the emperor's brother has made this decision for you, what about?"

This marriage is not only good, but it is simply great. Although the Grand Secretary Fang Hong has retired for many years, most of the important officials in the court want to worship him as his teacher, with three sons under his knees. He has all made great progress. One of them has just taken over as the Minister of Revenue. Since the Yuanhe years, the aristocratic family has been vaguely headed by the Fang family.

Chang Geng's face became extremely ugly in an instant.

Li Feng raised his eyebrows and asked, "What?"

Chang Geng turned around and raised his clothes and knelt down, his face tense tightly, but he just said nothing.

Li Fengqi said: "What are you doing?"

Chang Geng said nothing, kneeling without saying a word.

No matter how kind Li Feng was, he was the emperor. Seeing him like this, his face also dropped: "If you don't like him, you will say you don't like him. Your dignified prince, who can force you to get married? Who can show you his face?"

"My brother doesn't want to," Chang Geng gave him a big gift, and his voice was incorrect. "The eldest sister-in-law is like a mother, and the Empress is betrayed by her brother. The Emperor should punish me for her."

Li Feng frowned and said, "Why? Have you heard of the girl's bad things or have someone else's sweetheart? There is no outsider here, so there is no need to avoid anyone, even if it's just."

Chang Geng's eyes swept through the West Warehouse Pavilion, he was stubborn and refused to make a sound, and his eyes were slightly red.

Of course, Li Feng was not trying to find a good marriage for King Yan. He would never watch the Fang family get married with King Yan. He mentioned it in such a false way. In fact, the test just now was not over. He did not expect that it would arouse King Yan's emotions. He was a little curious and waved his hand to ask the eunuch to withdraw from the hall to wait for the order.

There were only two brothers left in the Western Warehouse Pavilion, and Li Feng said: "Can you say this?"

Chang Geng bowed to him deeply, but he didn't say anything, but slowly untied the collar of the court clothes.

Li Feng was shocked and stood up: "This..."

Yanwang's young chest was covered with old scars. The most shocking thing was a scald, very close to his throat, and a thin one seemed to be slapped by a fire stick.

"I would like to ask my brother to forgive me for the crime of losing my rituals in front of me." Chang Geng whispered, bringing out a little trembling that was not easy to detect.

After being shocked, Li Feng immediately reacted. After staying for a while, he softened his voice and asked in a low voice: "Is it the barbarian woman back then?"

Chang Geng's face turned pale and he reached out to slowly put his clothes back.

The fingers of the Japanese thief head were trembling violently by pulling a bow from the city, and he lowered his eyes and whispered: "Although it is a coward to treat people all over the world because of one person's fault, but..."

He gritted his teeth, and his words were cut off involuntarily, and he bowed to the ground: "The girl from Fang's family, Lan Xin, should have a lifelong entrustment. My brother is strange in nature and really doesn't like to be close to you. What kind of marriage is... The emperor should not mention it again in the future."

Li Feng said in surprise: "What are you saying? How can you never get married in your life?"

Chang Geng said expressionlessly: "Then why would the emperor take down his post and let me wander around the world with those wild monks?"

Li Feng: “…”

King Yan looked at it with a bright and clear moon, and was well-educated and had a lot of temper. He didn't get angry, so he threw a cup and a bowl, and said in one sentence, "I'll stop doing it, and I'll go to whoever I like."

Li Feng was angry and had no choice but to do anything to him. He immediately got angry and asked King Yan to get out. King Yan got out without saying a word.

The eunuch followed with a wink and asked happily: "Prince, are you going back to the Military Affairs Office?"

The King of Yan doesn’t necessarily go home for ten days and half a month, and he almost lives in the Military Affairs Office.

After a pause, Chang Geng's eyes scattered out in a daze, as if he was standing there in a daze. The eunuch did not dare to disturb him, so he had to stand beside him without even daring to leave.

“…No,” Chang Geng whispered, “Go home.”

Even Gu Yun had never seen the old scars on Chang Geng's body. He always thought that it would be like an untouchable period of time, but he did not expect that today would become a tool for him to delay the process from Li Feng.

The carriage walked through the wide and well-connected bluestone road in the capital. Chang Geng, who was closing his eyes to rest, suddenly opened his eyes.

One day these will become out of control.

One day he will be more useless than he is now.

But he always felt that he was not feeling uncomfortable because he had come out step by step by step. He had already thought about it and had nothing to regret.

He returned to the deserted Anding Marquis Mansion. He was not alarmed or eaten. He came straight to Gu Yun's extremely neat and simple bedroom, lying down, closing his eyes, as if there was a shallow fragrance of medicine on the quilt.

More than half a month later, after countless disputes in the court, Emperor Long'an finally rejected Yan Wang's absurd proposal that "the first batch of people who purchased Fenghuo tickets will be awarded the title according to the amount", and only promised to the chamber of commerce. In the future, the situation will be stable, and the military will be opened to guard the military to prevent them from invasion of thieves and bandits. At this time, those who have purchased Fenghuo tickets can directly obtain the qualification to join the club with this ticket, without paying any fees for the club.

More than a month later, a decree that shocked the government and the public was implemented from top to bottom - using the beacon ticket as an important indicator for the assessment of civil officials' administration.

A blade that no one saw at this time slowly revealed its traces.

As soon as this decree was released, the whole world was shocked. The Daliang court did not treat officials badly, and the salary was not low, but the favors in the officialdom were also very expensive. Especially during the reign of the Yuanhe Emperor, the national strength was unprecedentedly strong under the iron blood of Emperor Wu for a few years, and the extravagant show had already become a trend. At this time, officials were encouraged to buy beacon tickets for the future. How much money could they have to rely on the national salary?

Wouldn’t corruption be encouraged in the future?

But for a few days, the wind was heard on the frontier.

"Zi Xi!" Chen Yi threw the reins of the horse into the hands of the soldier and rushed into the coach's tent. Just as he was about to speak, he saw a platinum glass mirror on the bridge of Gu Yun's nose. He knew that he had not taken medicine again, so he had to swallow the words below. Gu Yun didn't know what was wrong recently. As long as he didn't see outsiders, he would take medicine less and less, as if he planned to be a blind and deaf man with a peaceful mind.

Chen Yigang raised his hand.

Gu Yun said, "No, you say that, I will practice lip speaking too."

Chen Yi sighed: "...Have you heard about the reform of the administration?"
