Several carriages squeaked across the bluestone road, but did not stop in front of the spacious gate of the prefect's mansion, but entered the mansion directly from the side door. When the bullock cart in the lead was stable, a small figure jumped out of the cart and threw himself into the arms of the person who came.
"Father!" The little guy didn't say anything, but those soft little hands were tightly gripping Liang Feng's sleeves, and he didn't seem to want to let go for a moment.
Liang Feng smiled and said, "Does Rong'er miss her father?"
More than just miss. This month, Liang Rong was extremely frightened. Although he didn't know exactly what happened in the county seat, from the performance of everyone, he could guess that it was not very safe for his father to go here. Halfway through, the Liang Mansion also made a police call, which made him even more anxious. Therefore, when he learned that his father was promoted to the county governor and he was going to take him to Lucheng, Liang Rong followed the motorcade without a word. As long as you can see your father, what's the point of going to a place that you have never been to
"Think!" Thousands of words, all condensed into this word, Liang Rong nodded vigorously, expressing his longing and urgency.
Liang Feng couldn't help but reached out and touched his little head: "Then let's live in the county town with my father. Although the prefect's mansion is not comparable to the mansion, it is enough for us to live in."
Hearing this sentence, Liang Rong couldn't help being elated. Father really didn't lie to him. As long as Father doesn't abandon him, he can go anywhere!
After coaxing the little guy, Liang Feng raised his head and said to Duan Qin, "Si Ruo has been working hard these days."
Along with Liang Rong was Duan Qin. I saw him cupping his hands and bowing deeply: "Congratulations to the lord for winning the party!"
This is also something that Duan Qin is truly grateful for. He had also deduced the situation that he would face in the future many times before. Unexpectedly, the situation changed, and he directly handed the Shangdang County to the master.
Although the right to appoint officials with a rank of 600 stone or more rests with the imperial court, but now the war is raging, the prefects of each state are strong and strong, and the appointment of local officials depends largely on the local prefects. If the court overstepped, it might irritate the other party. Therefore, any county governor recommended by the prefect will basically not be rejected by the court. As for the gift of the city, it is a kind of reward without cost. It is still a question whether it is possible to get so many mouths, and it can be regarded as a means to win people's hearts.
This is a trivial matter for Sima Teng and even the imperial court. But for the lord, it is the foundation of one side. Moreover, the promotion from the first session of Bai Ding to the prefect can be called a legend. There is prestige, there are achievements, and there is such a wealth and status. The meaning of this official position is far more important than it appears on the surface.
Liang Feng stretched out his hand to help him up: "If I hadn't mentioned Si Ruo, I wouldn't have made up my mind. The journey is exhausting, so come with me to the back hall to rest first."
Asking someone to take the little guy to the back house to rest, Liang Feng brought Duan Qin to the study. At this moment, the prefect's mansion has been thoroughly cleaned, and there are no traces of seizing the mansion. Although the house is a bit old, the environment is really good.
Sitting down in the room, Liang Feng was the first to ask, "How will the Fuzhong be arranged this time?"
Becoming the prefect, Liang Feng is bound to need more aides and assistants. Duan Qin can't stay in Liang's mansion anyway. He must stay in the prefect's mansion and help him handle government affairs. In this way, there will be no one available in the Liang residence.
Duan Qin replied: "Now there are rules in the Fuzhong, with the manager A Liang in charge of the center, and the accountant Zhou assisted by the side. Going back and forth once a month should properly handle the affairs of the Fuzhong. However, in the part, a reliable person was elected. Stay in Liang Mansion."
This is also an impossible way. Liang Feng nodded: "But it's only temporarily. When the number of households in Zengyi is replenished in the Fuzhong, I'm afraid that Aliang will not be able to take care of it comprehensively."
There are only less than 500 households in Liangfu now, and according to the rules set before, it can still operate normally. If it increased to a thousand households, it would be another concept. This has already caught up with a large county, and it needs better talents to manage it.
Duan Qin nodded: "What the lord said is very true. The friend I went to invite before is also coming soon, and he can be replaced by him to handle the affairs of the mansion."
At this time, the benefits of the cold door appeared. If a nobility goes to Liang Feng, it will definitely not choose to live in Liang's residence, at least it can only be appeased by a county official or county magistrate. But the poor family is not so particular about being a guest of the prefect, and it is no worse than being an official in the prefect's mansion. Can be regarded as a heart-hearted person. So it's not a bad deal.
Liang Feng nodded: "Other people should also bring some to the county house. For example, Li Zile and Liu Shiyue. I want to open a larger school in the county house, which is dedicated to accommodating separated young children for my use."
Before there was no money, teaching students could only be part-time work-study. Now that we have the post of prefect, if nothing else, the salary alone is 2,000 shi per year, and with the power of the county in hand, many things can be considered leniently. Therefore, it is urgent to set up full-time schools. Even if these people cannot be hired for a short period of time, it is a good investment in the long run. Not to mention, the matter of admission is also linked to military merit awards, so one cannot give up halfway.
Duan Qin naturally knew the benefits, and nodded, "I will handle this myself. It's just Sifang, how should we deal with it?"
"Sifang will be managed by Chaoyu first, if there is anything, please inform me immediately." Liang Feng replied simply.
Sifang is the treasury of Liang's house, and there are many secrets involved, and it is always inconvenient for others to intervene. Chaoyu has a keen mind, is loyal and reliable, and is a good candidate for an agent.
Although Duan Qin didn't understand why the lord would reuse this wet nurse, Chaoyu was indeed a neat and credible person, so it was barely acceptable.
"This arrangement is just a matter of authority. We still have to build a road when we go back. Only when a fast horse can be reached in one day can we be safe." Liang Feng sighed, such remote management is not a problem. After all, there are still high places near Liangfu. Du and Liangxing should also be considered comprehensively.
"Maybe some refugees can be recruited to build roads?" Duan Qin was also quite familiar with the method of food-for-work, and suggested.
"Well, Luoyang is still in chaos these days. If it can accommodate the population, let's charge more. There are also a lot of wasteland in Shangdang. If we can reclaim it, we need to reclaim more." Liang Feng made a decision, and then asked, "By the way, didn't Ji En come to Lucheng with you?"
"Doctor Jiang returned to Tong Zang first and said that he wanted to pick up his wife and daughter." Duan Qin replied immediately.
It's almost enough time for Imperial Physician Jiang to observe filial piety, and Jiang Da naturally wants to bring his wife and daughter to his side. In this way, not only the family can be reunited, but also the loyalty to Liang Feng can be expressed.
Hearing this, Liang Feng remembered: "Siruo, your family is still in Yangqu, so let's take it together. If the Xiongnu raise troops, it's not safe there."
Yangqu is very close to Jiuyuan. Once the Huns rise up, they will suffer first. This is really a thoughtful arrangement. Duan Qin saluted gratefully: "Thank you, lord! I will send people to take them to Lucheng as soon as possible."
"The rest is to find some available people."
The prefect's mansion has undergone two major changes, and the county officials have suffered countless casualties, and they are also severely lacking. Duan Qin naturally understood the seriousness of the matter, but seeing Liang Feng's calm expression, he couldn't help asking curiously, "Is there a candidate for the lord?"
"There is a place where you can try it."
※
Cui Liang has been staying at home every day these days. Lucheng had undergone major changes several times before. Fearing that it would be implicated by the rebels, the Cui Mansion closed its doors and did not contact the outside world. In any case, there is also the banner of Cui Daru, even if there is chaos, the thieves will not easily dare to come to the door. However, the information in the mansion is still well-informed. From the time when the governor of Jiang was killed, the governor of Yan took office, and then the governor of Yan was killed, and Liang Zixi was in charge of the county palace. In the same way, Cui Liang listened.
Until the return of Duke Dongying, Liang Feng was announced as the new prefect of the party. The chaos seems to be over. But Cui Liang still felt a little lack of realism. Who would have thought that the sick and weak gentleman, who had a good relationship with him last year, has now become the prefect of a county
He was someone who didn't even take part in the Chung Cheng examination!
In his heart, he was both frightened and envious, so even if Cui Mansion opened the door, he was really not interested in hanging out. However, I never thought that when I didn't go out, someone came to the door.
When he saw the pale green famous thorn, he didn't dare to delay, and hurried out the door.
"Brother Cui, are you safe?" Liang Feng did not wear official uniforms or a guard of honor. Instead, he dressed in Yanju's attire, with a light car and a simple frame, and came to visit.
"Liang... Mr. Liangfu!" Cui Liang was so frightened that he fainted, stammered twice, and then called out the correct name, "I don't know that the palace has come to the door, but I haven't been far away to welcome it, it's really rude..."
Liang Feng stopped the other party's nervous apology and said with a slight smile: "It's my sudden arrival. I have been busy with political affairs a few days ago, and now that I have time, I went to the mansion to visit Mr. Cui."
"Ah! The eldest father happened to have some energy in the past two days, and I will be in charge of the people!" Cui Liang hurriedly said.
Liang Feng frowned: "Is Mr. Cui ill?"
"It's just that I feel a little uncomfortable after the summer, but it's not a big problem..."
"There is a doctor Jiang in my house who is very skilled in medicine. I will invite him to come and see for Mr. Cui." Liang Feng said.
Unexpectedly, the prefect would still ask for a doctor for his grandfather. Cui Liang was excited and grateful, and thanked him again and again. After a few casual conversations, Liang Feng followed the other party and walked towards the bedroom of the side house.
This is not a place to meet guests, but Liang Feng didn't mind and stepped into the room. I saw the rickety old man leaning on the hidden table, still looking tired and thin, with only a pair of turbid eyes, which was a little bit bright. Beside him, there was a man kneeling, about thirty years old, and his appearance was somewhat similar to Cui Liang.
Seeing Liang Mansion walk into the room, the old man didn't get up, just bowed slightly and said, "This old man is frail, so I'm very rude. I hope the mansion will forgive me."
Liang Feng hurriedly stepped forward and said politely, "It was the sudden arrival of the boy, which disturbed Mr. Cui's rest."
His actions did not show the arrogance of the superiors at all, on the contrary, he was a little more polite than when we met before. The old man pulled out a wrinkled smile: "You don't need to be polite. Please take your seat."
After Liang Feng was seated, Cui Daru pointed to the man beside him: "This is my grandson, Ming Ji, with the word Gong Qiao. He serves me every day to study."
Cui Ji saluted calmly and said, "Gong Qiao has seen Liang Fujun."
When you came last time, no one was there to serve you. Liang Feng didn't break it. After returning the salute, he said with a smile: "I benefited a lot from the old gentleman before, and the book he gave made the boy feel stunned. I came here today to go to that year's appointment."
