Chapter 1302
"This matter has been handed over to Dali temple. If it is true, we should catch it, close it, kill it! Everything should be done according to the law of the great Zhou Dynasty." Bai Qingyan said to Dong, "we should always give justice to the people and let those powerful families know that the current great Zhou Dynasty is different from the original Jin Dynasty... We can do whatever we want as long as we have the power and money."
"I think it is precisely because they are royal relatives that they should be severely punished!" said the second lady Liu.
"Just follow the law. It's too strict. On the contrary, it makes people feel that our Bai family is playing for the people. There's no need to do so..." Qi, the fifth lady, said with a smile.
"That's what I mean, and... The patriarch has gone back to prepare for changing the family laws and regulations. We should use the law of the great Zhou Dynasty or the law of the great Zhou Dynasty. It's just that the family law is more strict."
While Bai Qingyan was talking to his mother and several aunts, Wei Zhong received a report from the little eunuch that the Minister of work Shen Tianzhi had arrived.
Wei Zhong stepped in, stood outside the landscape painting screen and whispered, "Your Majesty... The Minister of the Ministry of industry, Mr. Shen, has arrived."
Bai Qingyan, who had just put a spoonful of cheese slurry into his mouth with a small silver spoon, answered. After drinking the cheese slurry, he put down the silver lamp, kissed the two children, and got up and went to the study.
On the way, Bai Qingyan thought about it and asked Wei Zhong to send someone to call Dong Changyuan and Li Mingrui together.
When Bai Qingyan came to the study, he saw Shen Tianzhi in official clothes waiting in the bright sun at the door, wiping her sweat with a handkerchief in her sleeve. Her feet were two steps faster, smiled and said to Shen Tianzhi, "Lord Shen came so fast!"
"Please see your majesty!" Shen Tianzhi put away his handkerchief and saluted Bai Qingyan with a smile. "Your Majesty summoned me. I'm afraid there's something urgent, so he trotted all the way."
"Please come inside, sir!" Bai Qingyan took the lead in stepping into the main door of the study.
Shen Tianzhi followed in and knelt down at the table under Bai Qingyan's head. After listening to Bai Qingyan mention that he wanted Shen Tianzhi's eldest son Shen Yan'an to return to shuoyang to replace Bai Qingping, Shen Tianzhi agreed.
"Thank you, your majesty, for thinking about your son..."
"Lord Shen will teach the children. Although the children are young, they are very useful!" Bai Qingyan picked up the teacup. "Shen Yancong performed very well in Hancheng. Both Gao Yijun and Qin Lang, LV Yuanqing and Chen Zhaolu in Hancheng mentioned Shen Yancong in their memorials, saying that Shen Yancong helped them to ensure the smooth implementation of the new deal."
Shen Tianzhi smiled and hurriedly said, "there are so many talents in our great Zhou state, but it is because your majesty promoted Yancong that Yancong has the opportunity to stand out. I thank your majesty here!"
Bai Qingyan was amused by Shen Tianzhi: "Lord Shen, my father regards you as a close friend. I didn't see Lord Shen so polite when I was in shuoyang. Why does Lord Shen have the same tone with the county magistrate of Zhou now?"
Since Shen Tianzhi was transferred, shuoyang's prefect has been replaced by Lord Zhou. Now she should be called Lord Zhou, but Bai Qingyan is still used to calling Lord Zhou the county magistrate of Zhou. After all, the county magistrate of Zhou left a deep impression on her at that time.
Shen Tianzhi couldn't help laughing. He determined that Bai Qingyan was still the same as before. That's why he didn't have the posture of learning from Lord Zhou. He smiled and said: "originally, he thought that his majesty has now ascended the throne as emperor. Naturally, it's different from the previous Zhenguo princess. I didn't expect his majesty to be the same, but when it comes to Lord Zhou..."
Bai Qingyan became interested and looked up at Shen Tianzhi. He seemed to be waiting for the following.
"This Lord Zhou is very well-informed and sharp. Just a few days after the imperial examination was published and the papers were posted, this week, the Lord found the lower official and asked whether the promotion and demotion of the lower official in the future should be considered according to the outline for the assessment of officials of the greater Zhou Dynasty written by Dong Tingzhen." Shen Tianzhi said with a smile.
Shen Tianzhi had this feeling after Bai Qingyan used his mother Dong's hand to point his cousin Dong Tingzhen as a legend. Later, the Empress Dowager asked people to post all the papers of the palace examinees. Shen Tianzhi suddenly realized what Bai Qingyan was going to do next.
I also understand that there will be big changes in the next assessment.
When Lord Zhou was in shuoyang, he liked to discuss with his boss Shen Tianzhi about anything. This time, when he got these papers, he had an ominous feeling in his heart, so he quietly rushed to Dadu city to see Shen Tianzhi.
Shen Tianzhi didn't give a positive answer, but said something unimportant. He also thought that in addition to being fond of drilling camp, Lord Zhou didn't regard the people as careless parents, so he told Lord Zhou to follow the right path.
He also told that Lord Zhou liked to cater to the princess of the town when he was in shuoyang, so now we should cater to his Majesty's ideas and strategies. Don't confront his majesty, otherwise he will be the next unlucky one.
Lord Zhou was suddenly enlightened. He saluted Shen Tianzhi and hurried back to shuoyang. He planned to do some outstanding political achievements in shuoyang. He must not mix in the position of the Taishou with the same mentality as before, otherwise the position of the Taishou may not be preserved.
Bai Qingyan listened to Shen Tianzhi's words, slightly rubbed his hand holding the tea cup, looked up at Shen Tianzhi and asked, "what does Lord Shen think of Lord Zhou?"
"Lord Zhou is actually a bit capable. He is good at drilling camp and likes drilling camp. He knows current affairs very well. It depends on how the people above use it. If the people above use it well, this person can use it! If the people above are crooked... The lower beam of Lord Zhou will also be crooked." Shen Tianzhi was very pertinent.
"Then this week, Lord Shen will pay more attention. If he can use it... He can bring it up when he is assessed at the end of this year."
When Shen Tianzhi heard Bai Qingyan's words, he smiled and said frankly: "don't worry, your majesty. It's because of the old friendship that Lord Zhou once met his majesty outside shuoyang city with Wei minister. If you can promote him, he will be promoted after he is demoted!"
By Shen Tianzhi's words, Bai Qingyan seems to have returned to the time when she was the princess of the town. At that time, every time she returned to shuoyang or left shuoyang, adults Shen and Zhou would greet and send each other
But at that time, Lord Zhou was for his future, and Lord Shen was more to look at her and see what kind of person the eldest daughter of baiqishan was. Is it worth it for him to become the retreat of the Bai family!
Shen Tianzhi is a man favored by his father. Naturally, it's needless to say that Shen Tianzhi has been specially promoted in the position of minister of the Ministry of works. However, one day in the future, Shen Tianzhi will be an important minister in the court of the great Zhou Dynasty.
