What kind of bad thoughts can the queen have?

Night, eight o'clock.

Considering the time between the two worlds, Liu Shanqing finished washing early, lay on the bed, and enjoyed Shi Ran's massage comfortably.

Shi Ran chatted with Liu Shanqing about political affairs with a serious face, but from time to time, his massage hands deliberately slid his fingers over Liu Shanqing's slender calves, ankles or white and tender jade feet.

Liu Shanqing shrank her feet subconsciously, her expression didn't change, she was obviously used to Shi Ran's dishonesty.

If Shi Ran was honest, Liu Shanqing would not be used to it.

Furthermore, the level of dishonesty of the dog is nothing to Liu Shanqing.

"Five days after getting married, there will be the annual court meeting, followed by the spring festival, which is intended to encourage the common people to cultivate."

Liu Shanqing said: "I want to postpone the wedding until after the Spring Festival, what do you think?"

"How long is the delay?"

"Seven days."

"Okay," Shi Ran asked, "The main purpose of holding the Dachao Meeting is to determine the development direction of Dasui today. What do you think about this?"

Liu Shanqing obviously thought it over a long time ago, and said: "I plan to promote hybrid rice, sweet potatoes, potatoes and other crops at the Spring Festival. Build roads, set up schools, and implement imperial examinations. Set up a county garrison in Hexi to connect with the Western Regions. "

"King Qin, do you have anything to add?"

"Running the road, learning the school and promoting the imperial examination should be slow first. I think we should digest Hexi first, and then connect the Western Regions to add new sources of income for Dasui."

Shi Ran said: "When the annual income increases and the treasury has more money, then we can consider building roads and schools."

Dasui is not comparable to modern times. With Dasui's national strength and construction conditions, just building Chidao is a very big thing, and it will consume a lot of national strength and time.

If you want to build schools in various counties and set up counties in Hexi...

It is good to say that building a school, setting up a county in Hexi is not something that can be done with the upper lip touching the lower lip. Just building a city is a very expensive thing.

Don't you see, the new city has been built for almost two years, but there is only a shell of the city, and most of the houses and streets inside have not been built.

"The road can be slowed down, but the imperial examination cannot be delayed. After the establishment of the county in Hexi, a large number of officials and officials are needed. What we lack now are officials."

Especially after dealing with Prime Minister You and Marquis Changyang, the personnel have not been replenished, and the shortage of personnel has become even more serious.

"We can first assess the existing officials in a small area, and promote some capable officials from various places. Or expand the scope, so that some educated people from the people can also participate in the assessment."

"How to test?"

"Add some test questions to the original assessment system."

Like the Qin and Han Dynasties, although the source of officials is mainly the descendants and recommendations of officials, they will undergo some assessments before they are adopted.

The content of the assessment is basically the general law and how some laws are used in practice.

All in all, the assessment system of Dasui is more realistic than the imperial examinations in the Song, Ming and Qing Dynasties, and somewhat similar to modern examinations, without writing stereotyped articles.

However, since the participants are either descendants of officials or people recommended by officials, the assessment is basically just a formality.

Of course, those people have basic abilities, but that's all.

This has led to mixed officials, most of whom are useless, especially after Confucianism is the only one, most of them are tongue-in-cheek.

Liu Shanqing has long been dissatisfied with this situation, and has long wanted to change this situation.

Shi Ran also thought of this situation, and now he proposed to Liu Shanqing to expand the scope of selection.

Liu Shanqing had no objection to Shi Ran's proposal, and decided in his heart to have someone prepare for the assessment test tomorrow.

Speaking of assessing officials, it was Prime Minister You's responsibility. After Prime Minister You was dismissed, most of the things that Prime Minister You was responsible for fell on Liu Shanqing and Shi Ran.

It's not that Shi Ran and Liu Shanqing never thought about re-electing a right prime minister, but there has been no suitable candidate.

For this reason, Liu Shanqing has been paying attention to the court, or the county guards and other officials in various counties.

Shi Ran came up with the idea of ​​changing the official follower system and wanted to improve the official promotion system.

Shi Ran once mentioned it to Liu Shanqing, and Liu Shanqing thought it was feasible, but he didn't go deep into it.

For no other reason, there are too many things in the court, and there are too many things to be done immediately. The change of the official system and the improvement of the official promotion system can be postponed for a while.

At least until the end of the war on the north and south fronts.

Speaking of war, Shi Ran and Liu Shanqing have another urgent matter to do right now, which is to reward Shi Yuan, Chen Xi and others.

The medal system has been perfected, but it is obviously not enough to award medals, and there are other awards.

After all, this is Da Sui's own system. If it is changed suddenly, it will only give away insubstantial medals, which will cause dissatisfaction among the soldiers.

So here comes the question, what should Shi Yuan, Chen Xi and others be awarded?

Zhang Ping, Zuo Shu, Le Fu and others are easy to say, they all have a lot of room for improvement.What is difficult is the rewards for Shi Yuan and Chen Xi.

What Shi Ran meant was to promote Chen Xi to the rank of Taiwei and reward three thousand households.

Taiwei is the highest military post, commanding the army, and responsible for the appointment, removal and assessment of officers at all levels.

This official position is equivalent to that of Shi Ran's Da Sima.

After Shi Ran became the chief minister, the position of Taiwei was removed by default in the hearts of all the ministers.

Shi Ran now proposes that one is to reward Chen Xi, and the other is to distribute military affairs to Chen Xi in a more reasonable manner.

After all, Shi Ran doesn't know much about military affairs now, so it's easy for him to make decisions, and it's easy to go wrong.

The previous handling of military affairs was handed over to Shi Yuan and Chen Xilai after Shi Ran returned to the university.

At most, Shi Ran will take a look at them after they make a decision, and basically will not dismiss their decision.

"Where's Prime Minister Zuo?"

"Make a duke."

"Duke?"

Da Sui used the same [-]-level military merit system as the Qin Dynasty, and the biggest one was Chehou.

The duke is a title that was only available in the Zhou Dynasty, and it has been turned into an official position in Dasui, such as the prime minister, Taiwei and Yushi doctor are the three dukes.

"Otherwise there is no way to seal it, my father has already reached his peak."

As for being crowned king, that is impossible.

There is no option to become king in Dasui, even if Shi Ran has a special status in Dasui, and he can only be named King Qin by feigning death.

Liu Shanqing pondered: "In this way, the [-]th rank military merit system has to be changed."

"These things are not static. It doesn't matter if they are changed to level 21."

Shi Ran said: "In terms of power, there are more food cities than Chehou. You can change a county into the name of a duke, and you have no administrative power over the changed county."

Liu Shanqing nodded and said, "What name do you give Prime Minister Zuo?"

"Prince Zhenbei."

Liu Shanqing had no objection, and asked again: "What should Zhang Ping, Zuo Shu and others reward them?"

"Depending on their military exploits, those whose titles can be promoted to one level, those who can't, will be rewarded with foodies and promoted in official positions."

"I plan to send Zuo Shu to manage a county in Hexi, what do you think?"

"Sheriff or Sheriff?"

"Junshou," Liu Shanqing said, "I plan to let Zhang Ping take up the post of county lieutenant."

"Let Lefu, Zhang Ping is too irritable, and he is not very willing to use his brain, so he is easy to be led away by Zuo Shu."

Shi Ran said: "Le Fu is very assertive, and his strategy is not bad. He is more suitable as a county lieutenant."

"I originally planned to let Le Fu be the sheriff of another county in Hexi."

"How many counties do you plan to establish in Hexi?"

"Three or four counties."

In this way, they can constrain each other and prevent one party from becoming bigger.

Shi Ran continued to chat with Liu Shanqing for a while, and found that it was past eleven o'clock, and it was inconvenient to return to modern times at this time.

Because modern time stops at seven o'clock.

It's fine if you don't come tomorrow morning, but if you come to have breakfast with Liu Shanqing, Shi Ran will have to get up at three or four in the morning, and his schedule will be completely messed up.

It's nothing for a day or two. After a long time, not only Shi Ran's body can't stand it, but it will also affect Shi Ran's modern affairs, such as the studio.

So, Shi Ran went back lazily tonight, and slept directly with the big follower, just in time to hug the soft and fragrant Xiao Qingqing.

When Liu Shanqing learned that Shi Ran would not go back, she looked calm on the surface, but in fact she was very happy in her heart, and the corners of her naturally upturned mouth couldn't help showing a slight smile.

Five days later, Shi Ran was having lunch with Liu Shanqing, when he suddenly showed a thoughtful expression.

Seeing this, Liu Shanqing asked, "What does King Qin think of?"

"It's been three months."

"It's three days away."

"Let's make a bet."

"What are you gambling?"

"Single or twin, I guess twins."

"What's the bet?"

Shi Ran said something in his ear with a smirk on his face, and Liu Shanqing gave Shi Ran an angry look, this stinky hooligan and a disciple.

I don't even know how the dog thing came up with.

"How about it?"

"not so good."

Since tomorrow is the Dachaohui, you have to get up at four or five o'clock in the morning, and the time of the modern day and Dasui's single day is not exactly the same, there is an hour or two difference, so Shi Ran doesn't plan to go back today and stay.

After lunch, Shi Ran took Liu Shanqing back to her room for a lunch break.

This time, Liu Shanqing didn't take advantage of Shi Ran's sleep, and sneaked up to deal with government affairs, like a little milk cat, sleeping peacefully in Shi Ran's arms.

Shi Ran fell asleep for a while, and was gently woken up by Yu'er.

"King Qin, the captain came and said he has something important to report."

Shi Ran got up lightly, and under Yu'er's service, he put on his coat and walked out.

Shi Zhong was still dressed in the neutral black robe.As soon as he saw Shi Ran, he immediately went up to meet him, and said bluntly: "Brother, those people in Zhao Ji are plotting to rebel again."



Shi Ran's expression remained unchanged, and he asked, "When are they going to do it? What's the plan?"

"There's no plan, it's just what they say," Shi Zhong said, "They plan to get rid of you to prevent you from marrying your sister-in-law."

"That means they're just enjoying themselves."

"It's just that there is no definite plan yet," Shi Zhong said. "In my opinion, whether they have plans or not, it is unforgivable for them to have such a heart."

"There are too many people who miss me dead, so don't miss them."

Shi Ran said: "Continue to monitor, if they plan to do something, get the evidence that they are going to do it, and have Ting Wei arrest them."

"They invaded the people's good land and harmed the people's evidence. All the evidence has been collected. If you want to arrest them, you can arrest them now."

"Keep it for now. Shanqing has only a few relatives. If they are all dead, the Zhao family will be extinct. Besides, it's not good to capture and kill them before the big wedding. Later, others will say that I want to use their Life, as a gift for my wedding with Shanqing."

"Yes, then I will let them continue to monitor."

"Anything else?"

"No, that's all," Shi Zhong said, "By the way, General Chen will be leaving in a few days."

"The black ice platform, are you happy doing it?"

"It's okay, it's fun to listen to other people's gossip every day," Shi Zhong said, "Why did you ask me this suddenly? Are you going to give me a promotion?"

"In the past few years, I have wronged you a little, and I have been out of sight. Uncle has talked about you a lot."

"Fortunately, my father has been urging me to get married," Shi Zhong said, "You can tell him another day and tell him not to keep urging me. I don't have that idea for now."

"Sooner or later, you will have to get married. You are so old, do you want to be single for the rest of your life?"

"People don't have to get married, that's what you taught me."

"The thing is, I'm done."

"Then I'm not in a hurry," Shi Zhong looked at Shi Ran vigilantly, "You don't mean to dismiss my job and force me to get married, do you?"

"What if I say yes?"

"Then I'll fight with you, you heartless, I'm working hard for you, are you embarrassed to treat me like this?"

Shi Ran patted Shi Zhong on the head: "I'm this kind of person? Don't worry, I won't force you to get married, and I won't force you to betroth you to someone else against your will. You can handle this kind of thing yourself." ,I do not care.

If you are interested, you can tell me and your sister-in-law, and let your sister-in-law give you a marriage when the time comes.What I want to talk about is what happened after the Black Ice Terrace. "

Shi Zhong smiled: "I know that brother can't be such a bastard," Shi Zhong asked, "What will happen after the black ice platform?"

"You can't understand the power of the Black Ice Terrace. It's okay if you and I are here. It is a sharp weapon in our hands. But once you and I are gone and your nephew takes over, can he still rule the Black Ice Terrace? ? At that time, the Black Ice Platform is likely to become a big trouble, endangering his rule."

Shi Zhong stared at Shi Ran, and tried to ask: "Brother, are you planning to abolish the Black Ice Platform?"

"If there is no proper management system, I have this idea."

Shi Ran said: "This is what I want to tell you. While there is still a lot of time, you should spend some time thinking about a reasonable management system so that the Black Ice Station can operate normally without you and me, and there will be no pathological changes. .If there is really no good way, let’s think about how to arrange those personnel after the Black Ice Platform is abolished.”

"No, I will make it as soon as possible."

Although the Black Ice Terrace was founded by Shi Ran, Shi Zhong has been managing it since its inception, and put a lot of effort into it.As far as Heibingtai and Shi Zhong are concerned, they are just like her children. If possible, she naturally does not want to destroy her children.

"Don't worry too much, at least one to 20 years for you to slowly formulate."

Shi Chong hummed.

Shi Ran went on to say: "By the way, after you go back, make a list of talented people. The court will hold a nationwide assessment in the near future, with the purpose of selecting officials.

There must be some people in the Black Ice Terrace who don't want to be blind for the rest of their lives. Rather than keeping them and making them a disaster, it's better to let them come out and do what they want to do.

This can also be used as a promotion direction, giving them hope for the future. "

"No," Shi Chong asked, "under what name are they participating?"

"Ghost Valley," Shi Ran said, "make an empty shell of Ghost Valley College, and all the students who participate are from Ghost Valley."

"promise."

"Okay, just these things, you go to work."

Shi Zhong didn't leave immediately, but asked with a smile: "Brother, have you thought about the name of the child?"

"It's still early, if you are interested, you can help think about it."

Shi Zhong's eyes lit up: "Is this appropriate?"

"It's just for reference, and it's not necessary. What's wrong?" Shi Ran said, "Besides, as their aunt, it's only natural for you to name them."

"Okay, I will definitely give them a super nice name."
