Chapter 443 The undercurrent of Beiliang Road, and the Liang Palace has more than every year
Xu Fengnian asked the current state of Lingzhou clerks. Xu Beizhi replied that he was a fox official because the fox pretended to be the power of the tiger and was good at observing his words and expressions. Xu Fengnian asked back, “Are those county magistrates and real-powered lieutenants who instructed their clerks to cause dark winds and rains, are they tiger officials?”
Xu Beizhi nodded with a smile, adding that the tiger officials are ghost officials, who do bad things and are in a bad way behind the scenes, but the people who live in simplicity and do not know the details still think they are honest officials, which is the most powerful among the top fourteen levels.
Xu Fengnian continued to ask, “Which level is the prefect of Longjing County Zhong Chengxin?”
“Zhong Chengxin is located on the fifteenth floor. In my opinion, there is nothing easier in the world than being an official. You are not greedy or occupant, and you will proceed step by step. If you have a staff member to give advice, rectify the situation, and be a hand-off manager. It doesn’t matter if you only care about the wind, snow and moon. You will have no great achievements and no great mistakes. You will generally be in peace with the people.”
“Wang Xihua, the Gongcao of Huangnan County”
“The government affairs are mediocre, but the reputation is very good. I have never been greedy and cruel. If I have good governance and good deeds, I will definitely help you. I will treat the people as my own. This is also the most honest official that ordinary people want most. This is the sixteenth level. Their achievements depend on whether the master is wise, the overall situation is clear, and the situation is effective. Their officials will naturally rise and the situation is dirty. Sooner or later, they will only leave. They claim that they do not bow their backs for five dou of rice and pick chrysanthemums under the eastern fence. It is not that they do not want to be officials, but they do not have the ability to turn the tide. They can only retreat second, cherish their feathers, and retreat bravely. Officials who have left their names in history are all such. However, you have to leave a few popular poems. Many of the slandered civil officials in the book who were praised by later generations actually do not know the general principles and their actions are useless to the world. They are just martyrs who sacrifice their reputation for favor. When they meet a stupid emperor, they will succeed. If they are cunning kings, especially those who are smaller, they can make them depressed and unsuccessful for the rest of their lives. In Xu Beizhi’s opinion, Wang Xihua is not suitable to be the county magistrate of Huangnan County, but should keep a low profile in the officialdom like Huan Wen, the Imperial College Superintendent, and study for a few years. When the time is ripe, they will make a big splash.”
“The new Lingzhou official, who is about to become your assistant, is Song Yan, who is also an official?”
“The 16th floor is capable officials. They are not very good at gaining fame, but the methods of pursuing the officialdom are not bad. The key is that they can govern their jurisdiction with great success, prosperity, and have a high vision. They have seen the pattern trends outside the top 15 levels of officials, but in fact they care about the people. However, this type of person is destined to achieve a certain rank in the officialdom. Unless they meet noble people in the temple, they will be unable to move forward. Not to mention anything else, just those ordinary people who are inevitably short-sighted in their family background may have to scold them when they serve. In fact, through the ages, many measures that have benefited from the world and made contributions for thousands of years have come from the hands of these officials.”
Xu Xiao, who had never spoken, peeled a yellow tangerine and asked softly, “Beizhi, then you comment on Li Gongde.”
Xu Beizhi still said bluntly, “Not being honest than a clean official, greedy, not being able to do things, and doing things. In general, you can take into account both ends and be considered a good official. The master of the ruling is already the leader of this level of officials. If it weren’t for the narrow-mindedness, you could have gone up to another level. Having the prime minister’s talent but not the prime minister’s demeanor, it is still acceptable to serve as the ruling officer in Beiliang. If he went to the temple to occupy the ruling officer, the calf would probably ruin a big plow.”
Xu Xiao nodded, handed the peeled yellow orange to Xu Fengnian, and said, “In this way, Biyan’er is a pillar of a dynasty. He can’t find any problems in self-cultivation and governance, and has also opened up a new pattern for the world with his own hands. He is the eighteenth or the last nineteenth.”
Xu Beizhi took half of the citrus that Xu Fengnian gave him, stuffed a petal into her mouth, and smiled and said, “Eighteenth.”
Xu Xiao fell into deep thought.
Xu Fengnian broke the silence and laughed: “Xu Xiao, you are really ignorant. After eighteen, you are only at the 19th level. Orange has tried his best to leave such a big flattery for you. You are so good, the horse’s head is facing our Orange. How can you flatter this guy?”
Xu Xiao was stunned for a moment, a little embarrassed, and smiled apologetically: “I always thought that I was at the level of the ghost official. Bei Zhi, I’m sorry.”
Xu Beizhi smiled and shook her head, ate the yellow orange, and said goodbye.
As soon as he stepped forward, a fat pig came in and rolled into the house.
Xu Fengnian immediately raised his hand and shouted, “Shut up.”
The fat man swallowed the crying cry that was almost blurted out back to his stomach. Xu Xiao waved, “Lushan, sit quickly.”
Chu Lushan, who had already been promoted to the second-rank Beiliang Guardian, smiled and rubbed his hands, sitting on the floor that was not cold, and whispered in a low voice, “Enjoyant father, this time I am taking thorns and accusing him of the thorns. However, during the Chinese New Year, Lu Qiuer was bare-armed and carrying thorns, afraid that it would be too unlucky to look at it.”
Xu Fengnian said helplessly, “Just know what Song Gu is doing, there is no one smarter than you in the world. And my sister, don’t make people annoy you.”
Chu Lushan sighed and stopped talking.
Xu Weixiong walked out of the house and said coldly to Chu Lushan: “You are a magnificent guardian of the Northern Liang Dynasty. You are not bored in the trivial and dirty things you have done in the past half a month.”
Chu Lushan shrank his neck, which was so short that he was almost invisible, and dared not retaliate. In fact, in the Xu family, the eldest princess Xu Zhihu had always hated this fat man, but Xu Weixiong had no prejudice. Xu Weixiong turned to Xu Xiao and said, “Dad, the level of officials Xu Beizhi mentioned, I will use this as a hidden deputy evaluation of the Beiliang official assessment. I will notIt is made public and only delivered to Fengnian for reference. “
Xu Xiao nodded.
Xu Fengnian asked in a low voice: “Lu Qiuer, what outrageous thing did you do? Can my sister be furious? The Eagle Falcon and the Eagle fight on a large scale?”
Chu Lushan said embarrassedly: “How dare you, it’s just a little joke when you are bored in your spare time, not worth mentioning. ”
