Chapter 169: Civil and Military Separation
As a different man, Han Yan also lost his mind for a moment, but he quickly woke up and smiled and said, "No matter how many it is, it is the young master who is not born, so don't worry about it."
Tian Yu nodded in agreement and said, "What the other way is, although there are a lot of things, everyone should have a vision and be more generous. In the future, the money controlled by the future will not be just this amount. Just say Yuyang, Yu has just passed, but the tax revenue this month is also 68,000 yuan. Although it seems not much, this is because a war has just begun. If you can give more time, in just one year, Yuyang's economy will inevitably undergo earth-shaking changes, and the annual income will never be less than 10,000 yuan."
"Premier Tian is right. My Zhen family is just a businessman. No matter how rich you have, you can't compare to a state, let alone the whole world." Zhen Yan immediately agreed that wealth is as good as a country, but it was just a praise. No matter how rich a business is, it is definitely far from a stable country. There is no comparison between the two.
"good"...
Others also agreed, especially the prefects from all over the country, with a sense of pride on their faces. Each of them was in charge of a county, and they had hundreds of thousands of people under their command. To calculate, each person had a monday, and every day was definitely not a small amount.
"Haha, Taishou Tian is really a master of making money!" Han Yan couldn't help but praise.
The others also laughed immediately, and Tian Yu quickly clasped his fists and said, "I'm too rewarded, too rewarded."
At this moment, Yuan Xi and a few people stepped in. Seeing this scene, he said curiously: "I am so happy about anything.
Yuan Xi's sudden arrival shocked everyone. Han Yan hurriedly took everyone to salute and said, "Meet the young master."
"No need to be too polite." Yuan Xi smiled and waved his hand.
Han Yan stood up and looked at Shu Zuo who was leading the way, and said very seriously: "Young Master is here, why don't you inform me?"
The young Shuzo was shocked and hurriedly stepped down.
"It's not his business, it's Xi's request. Civil officials and military generals are different. They are in chaos and don't understand the rules. You are not a different place here. You are polite and obedient, elegant in conversation. There is no need to show off this show," Yuan Xi said with a smile.
"Praise Mr. Xie" Han Yan responded and signaled to the several scholars and servants beside him, asking them to retreat.
"What did you say just now! You're so happy." Yuan Xi asked again.
"We were just talking about it, saying that although the young master was not born yet, he was already one of the most wealthy businessmen in the world," Tian Yu explained.
"What does it mean?" Yuan Xi said in confusion.
"Report to the young master, uncle just wrote a letter saying that he would give one-third of the Zhen family's assets to the young master," Zhen Yan quickly explained.
Yuan Xi immediately smiled bitterly, "I said, why do you all think they are boys? Haven't you been born yet?"
"It must be a boy. Yesterday Yan went to see his wife. The wife said that before he became pregnant, he had a dream, with stars everywhere in the sky and golden dragons entering his arms. This is a symbol of a man." Zhen Yan said with certainty.
Yuan Xi frowned and immediately became serious, "Don't talk nonsense, what a golden dragon is in your arms? Xi is a minister of the Han Dynasty, where did the dragon come from? It's okay to say this here, but it's not possible outside."
Zhen Yan was shocked and quickly lowered his head and said, "Oh, it's Yan Menglang."
"The prefect Zhen loves his nephew very much, it's understandable. Please sit down by your grandson." Han Yan immediately pulled the topic away.
Yuan Xi nodded, walked to the first seat and sat down, looked at the people standing, gently pressed his hands, took a closer look, and said curiously: "Why are Juhu and Yan Fang not here?"
"Reported to the young master, the chief clerk Ju brought Yan Gongcao and was still preparing for the New Year's banquet, so he didn't come here," Han Yan explained.
"Let them not be too tired, just be almost done," Yuan Xi ordered.
"promise!"
Yuan Xi formally looked at everyone and smiled and said, "It is rare to be so neat today. The prefects of each county, the other leaders of the governor's office, Gongcao, Zhucao, Military, Literary, and the county magistrate of Ji County are all there. It can be said that they are the absolute core of the civil affairs of Youzhou. Seeing you, Xi will be relaxed. As long as you are here, Xi believes that the people of Youzhou can live and work in peace and contentment. As the ruler, we have only one goal, so that the people can live a good life. There is nothing to give to you. You are a hundred times better than Xi. I just hope that you will continue to work hard and make Youzhou more prosperous."
"I promise, we will live up to the expectations of the young master." The ministers quickly stood up and responded.
"Haha, it is true that civil officials rule the world, and military generals fight, civil and military must be distinguished clearly, so Xi did not arrange you with them. There will be a separate dinner later. You drink more times. Xi believes that you are also self-conscious and don't need Xi to remind you anything." Although Yuan Xi was gentle, there was a hint of seriousness in his tone. Civil officials were smart and good at hiding, so he would like to make a special note that as long as civil officials did not collude with military generals, even if they were smart and witty, Yuan Xi could be destroyed.
"Young master is wise, we understand." When the ministers heard this, their faces immediately became much more cautious.
"Okay, I won't say much. You can continue to chat. When it's the New Year banquet, Xi is celebrating you a few cups." Yuan Xi stood up slowly.
"Mr. Xie"
Yuan Xi nodded, took his people out of the Government Affairs Hall and headed towards the Military Affairs Office.
As soon as Yuan Xi left, the atmosphere immediately became a little relaxed, but everyone's faces still had a hint of seriousness. Among them, Li Xin, the prefect of Dai County, looked at Han Yan with some concern and clasped his fists and said, "Don't you, among the counties, we are the only one of Dai County, but we are not yet separated from civil and military affairs. Do you think you would suggest to the young master and send everyone to take over?"
Li Xin was frightened by Yuan Xi's words just now and thought he was saying it to him.
"Haha, don't be nervous, the young master has already made arrangements for this matter. You should work hard first. Soon, the fifth young master will come over and be in charge of all the troops in Dai County and Zhu County," Han Yan comforted.
"That's good, that's good." Li Xin nodded quickly.
"The separation of civil and military affairs of the young master is absolutely correct. Only by controlling each other can we ensure the inheritance of the foundation from generation to generation, and the possibility of self-organization is avoided to the greatest extent in terms of system. At the end of the Han Dynasty, it was because the governors of each state had too great power and the civil and military administration that led to the current situation," Tian Yu said with an admiration.
"Yes, I have always said that military generals are chaotic in the country. In fact, civil officials are even more terrible, so I have to distinguish them. You are now prefects and may have greater power in the future. We must pay more attention. In addition to necessary contacts, civil and military personnel should not communicate as much as possible, especially in-laws. In this regard, the young master has no sympathy to say." Han Yan once again reminded him seriously.
"Don't worry, I understand."
Han Yan nodded with satisfaction, then smiled and said, "Of course, don't be afraid of military generals just because they have soldiers. They are in charge of the army, and we have equal status. In addition, Yan's government affairs hall is no worse than that secret hall in the heart of the young master."
