Chapter 295 Educating the Prince
"Brother Prince, look at the memorial in your hand. The thieves in Yunzhou City have appeared and several households have been stolen. Not to mention why the local officials did not arrest him, just talk about the thieves' thieves' thieves, why did they send them to Chang'an and hand them over to the prince for the decision?"
Li Chengqian pondered a little, "This is a memorial that has been checked and cleared by the Shangshu Province."
Li Fangchen had a little disdain on his face, "This is the responsibility of a local official, but now he has written it into a memorial and sent it to the palace. Could it be that even such a trivial matter is required to ask Chang'an to make a decision?"
Li Chengqian smiled and said, "Governing a big country is like cooking a small fresh food. How can everything go well? This is a memorandum that the Shangshu Province specially selected to temper my decision to make political affairs."
"What's your comment?"
Li Chengqian said seriously: "Investigate the thieves strictly, arrest them and take back the money lost by the people..."
Li Fangchen couldn't help but interrupt Li Chengqian's next words, "Solved the case in three days, and the case was sent to Dali Temple for filing."
"What?"
Li Chengqian obviously did not keep up with Li Fangchen's thoughts, and he was still confused about Li Fangchen's words.
"It's the matter of Yunzhou officials. Could it be that something went wrong with him under his rule? Chang'an still needs to wipe his butt? It's not done well, and he doesn't do it well. If he keeps doing this, let him get out soon!"
Li Chengqian was stunned and didn't know how to answer for a moment.
If it were the past, if you criticize memorials, you would have to give a few crowns to make the officials of the Tang Dynasty do their best.
But today, when I heard my second brother’s words, it seemed that I had opened up a brand new world for him.
"What did the second brother mean?"
"Those who eat their salary are officials, and those who serve the people are officials. If you eat their salary but do not serve the people, how can you be an official?"
"But if this is the case, I'm afraid the ministers in the court..."
“太子哥,磨炼你行政事的能力不假,可也要分轻重而判定.如此折子,自云州到长安千百里,若使得盗贼逃遁,最后苦难的还是那些百姓.为官者庇护一方,为民主事,而不是贪慕功勋,等待白日升迁!”
Li Chengqian couldn't help but sigh: "What my second brother thinks is that I'm afraid that there will be no such selfless officials in the entire Tang Dynasty!"
"Then set an assessment, which will take the time limit for a period of time, and take the situation under the management of the official during his term of office to determine whether an official is qualified!"
Immediately afterwards, Li Fangchen told Li Chengqian some content on performance appraisal. Although these things were popular in later generations, they were completely unspecified in the Tang Dynasty.
Although there are officials who are promoted by their talent for governing the territory, they are more likely to be promoted by recommendations.
Relying on the background of my home, I rose step by step.
Li Chengqian was very surprised and chatted with Li Fangchen very prone.
In his words, he agreed with the official's assessment and couldn't wait to write a memorial, intending to send it directly to the palace.
"This is just one of your and my ideas, so don't worry." Li Fangchen hurriedly stopped him. Even if he was anxious, he always had to consider it more comprehensively.
For example, how to formulate punishments? If an incompetent person is really, should he be removed from his official position?
There are a very large majority of officials in the Tang Dynasty today, but they are not obtained by their true abilities.
Those who have children from the families of the Dukes of each prefecture are exceptional.
With the achievements of his ancestors, even Li Chengqian cannot say that he can take away the other party’s official position at will unless the other party is unable to think about it and rebel!
The emperor promises it will weigh ten thousand gold.
These founding heroes' families were immortal in the country for three generations.
Li Chengqian pulled Li Fangchen to talk for a long time, and also had a rough idea.
He likes this way of promotion and assessment very much.
Although he could not use Li Shimin when he was in power, he could wait until he ascends the throne.
"Two Your Highnesses, the newly sent lychees from Lingnan."
The eunuch brought the plate into it, which was really a lot, and Li Fangchen couldn't help swallowing.
You are not polite at all, so you go up and pick it up and peel it. The crystal white and tender flesh is in the mouth, sour and sweet, and the juice is full.
Li Chengqian smiled and said, "Although Lingnan is poor, these lychees are difficult to grow in other places except Lingnan. Often, a large cart is sent to Chang'an, but it is not broken in the end, but it is just the plate we have in our hands."
Li Fangchen was a little thoughtful, maybe he could do something.
But now, it’s better to eat lychees first.
"Prince Prince, please be busy first, it's time for me to leave."
After saying that, he didn't care about Li Chengqian's surprised gaze, he hugged a large plate of lychees and ran away...
Li Chengqian didn't react, and after a long time, he suddenly spoke: "Is he... leaving?"
The eunuch beside him smiled bitterly and said, "Your Highness the King of Qin is really..."
He didn't dare to say anything bad about the King of Qin, because as soon as he continued to talk, Li Chengqian looked over.
The relationship between the prince and the King of Qin is not something that he, a little eunuch, can discuss.
Li Fangchen left the Eastern Palace and got on the carriage and returned to the Qin Palace. He had something to do.
Qi Qi shouted, and the horse began to move forward.
Li Fangchen poked his head out and handed over a few lychees to the Seventeen and the others, "I snatched it from the prince, please try it."
"Thank you, Your Highness."
After walking through several neighborhoods, I stopped in Changxingfang. Could it be that there is something strange in this yard?
This was not the case. Li Fangchen was attracted by the scene seen on the roadside, so he ordered people to stop the frame, get off the carriage, and walk towards a crowd gathering place on the roadside.
"Give it! Give it!"
Seventeen and the others pushed the crowd away so that Li Fangchen could enter.
In the center of the crowd, there was a little girl about nine years old, wearing a linen cloth, scarlet blood, and pale face lying on the street.
Li Fangchen frowned, and his familiar face made him blurt out "Qiao'er!"
Isn’t this the little girl Li Fangchen met when he first came here? Where is her mother? The Liu family, who was sixteen years old, went into exile to Chang'an for survival?
I quickly walked up to check and looked through my breath. It was so weak that I didn't die yet.
"Seventeen, bring her with you and we will go home!"
Li Fangchen's face immediately became gloomy. At that time, Liu had been guarding the Qin Prince's Mansion. Later, someone told her about a marriage, and she took Qiao'er away from the mansion.
Her man Li Fangchen had also seen him. The honest scholar didn't care about Liu's daughter.
Why hasn't you seen Liu's family for a few years gone by, but Qiao'er has become like this?
"Get out of the way! Get out of the way!"
A group of Wuhou came from a distance, "Who is gathering here?"
The crowd hurriedly retreated. When Wuhou saw Li Fangchen and others dressed in luxurious clothes, he did not dare to neglect them.
Just when I saw the girl in my arms in my seventeenth, my pupils shrank slightly.
"Young man, can that little lady be handed over to me?"
Li Fangchen had a gloomy face and didn't even look at each other. A man walked out of his guard and shouted, "This is familiar to my young master. What do you mean by taking it away?"
I didn't mention any official position, but it seemed that the noble son of a wealthy family was from.
The Wuhou looked at each other, and at the same time, he breathed a sigh of relief and said hurriedly: "Young Master doesn't know that this little girl is a slave of Cuixianglou. She had asked her to run away before, but now she has found someone, so she will naturally send it back."
"Cuixianglou?"
The guard said coldly: "Which Cuixiang Tower?"
"Chang'an City, Cuixianglou in Xinghuafang."
The slaves in the building? To put it bluntly, they are all doing flesh and blood work.
Qiaoer and Liu clearly married a good family, but how could she encounter such a situation?
Li Fangchen walked straight towards Wuhou, grabbed him with one hand, and said coldly: "Who is behind this Cuixianglou?"
Wuhou sighed and explained: "Young Master, the Princess Yongjia behind Cuixianglou. I know that you have a noble status, but you must not participate in such a thing."
I wish to save a slave, which shows that this young master is indeed kind-hearted, but the matter behind this slave is too much involved!
