Chapter 841 Another battlefield (1)


    Fei Qian thought that when he returned to Pingyang, he could take a rest, at least take a breath or something. He no longer had to sleep on a straw wooden bed, but could lie in the silk quilt and sleep until he woke up naturally at three o''clock in the morning, and then live for a few days to eat and eat. A lazy life with stretched out hands, but this ideal was soon defeated by the harsh reality...


    "Yuanzhi!" Fei Qian stared at the various bamboo slips and articles piled on three desks in the Government Affairs Hall, and couldn''t help but said with a headache, "...how many have been accumulated? Didn''t you do it for me? Shall I share some?”


    Xu Shu arched his hands and said, "Zhonglang, I have tried my best to screen, but in fact there are not many..."


    Not much?


    Fei Qian couldn’t help but shake his head and smile bitterly.


    Although bamboo paper has gradually begun to be supplied to surrounding markets, many officials are still accustomed to using the original wooden slips and bamboo slips, so they are stacked one by one to form a hill-like shape, which is indeed a bit scary...


    "..." Fei Qian sat down resignedly, took down a bamboo slip, and then nodded his head up and down to look at it. It was not that Fei Qian saw the content in the bamboo slips as reasonable, but that the bamboo slips were written from top to bottom, and one column was written He couldn''t write a few words, so Fei Qian could only read it while nodding his head up and down.


    After reading one volume, Fei Qian picked up his pen, commented on his comments, put it aside, then picked up another volume, opened it, looked at it a few times, and then sighed.


    Xu Shu asked from the side: "Zhonglang, what''s wrong? What''s the problem with this chapter?"


    “It’s not a special question, it’s just that this article is well written, hey…” Fei Qian shook his head and sighed again.


    ?Xu Shu was a little confused. Is this a compliment or dissatisfaction?


    Fei Qian spread the letter on the table and said: "...the mountains are full of rocks, the rocks are towering, the valleys are full of rocks, the water is flowing, the osmanthus grows in the mountains, the branches are dangled, the forest is full of roaring tigers and leopards... Okay, Yuan Zhi, these are good writings, right?”


    Although Xu Shu didn''t know what Fei Qian meant, he twirled his beard and nodded and said: "The words are neat and rhyme, like the valley of Guilin, lifelike..."


    "Well," Fei Qian also nodded, and then said, "...then what do you think he wanted to express by writing like this?"


    These bamboo slips were placed in the hall where Fei Qian worked, and they had been backlogged for a long time. Although Xu Shu was responsible for delivering these wooden slips and bamboo slips, for Xu Shu, the bamboo slips and wooden slips he had seen during this period were simply The number on Fei Qian''s side was more than ten times that of others, so except for some very important things, generally the bamboo slips and wooden slips that were not so urgent that were handed over due to lack of authority were forgotten.


    ?Hence, Xu Shu searched for the memory of this passage in his head and said tentatively: "...Does this...want to build water conservancy?"


    “No!” Fei Qian raised his chin and asked Xu Shu to guess again.


    “The mountain road is difficult to travel, do you want to work hard to repair it?”


    Fei Qian still shook his head.


    "...Oh, I remembered. This person said that now that there is a war, many hermits go to the mountains and forests to avoid disasters. Please ask Zhonglang to build a hall to recruit them..." Xu Shu finally searched the main content of this wooden slip in his mind, which he quite agreed with. , so I submitted it for Fei Qian’s approval.


    Fei Qian nodded and smiled: "Yes, it''s such a simple thing. Why do you have to talk about beautiful mountains and rivers, deep forests and dense trees?" Fei Qian threw the letter away and lost interest in continuing to read. It''s just official business, but he writes such gorgeous prose. The previous bamboo slip was like this, and the current one is also like this. Most of the bamboo slips and wooden slips piled up on this table are probably like this. Things are already extremely complicated, and we need to start from this. The central idea is found in the article, which is simply...


    Am I here to do reading comprehension?


    Is it because I didn’t take enough Chinese lessons in later generations, so I couldn’t make up for it in the Han Dynasty?


    Fei Qian complained in his mind, but he also had a headache.


    Memorials from the Han Dynasty, although there are also some straightforward essays, are mostly based on metaphors and parallels, and the rhythm of the words is mostly beautiful. In terms of structure, they usually start with a recent rumor, about the sages. Words, etc., and then let’s talk about some examples. What is hidden among these examples is the meaning I want to express...


    ?Therefore, if you don’t have any cultural literacy, when you see these articles, you will basically stare at them, have no idea what they are talking about, and go crazy on the spot.


    Of course, this phenomenon is normal and unavoidable, because since the emperor is the emperor and acts on behalf of heaven, how can there be any problems or mistakes? Besides, people like to hear good things and don’t like people coming up to criticize and write memorials every day. If it starts with "YOUAREWRONG! Itcannotbedeniedthatyouaresowrong..."


    What would the emperor think and think about it?


    So in order to attract the emperor to be interested and willing to read on, and not to feel that the ministers or others were pointing their noses at him, these articles had to become more and more beautiful, and the things they described became more and more obscure.


    ??But the problem is that Fei Qian is a descendant of later generations. Although he now understands this set of behavior patterns and speech patterns of gentry children, it does not mean that he can like this approach.


    Which corporate style of later generations does Fei Qian prefer? The pyramid structure of articles, titles, general introduction, sub-themes, specific matters, and the final summary is in the form of official documents. It is clear, tidy, and simple, but the problem is that it takes a long time to implement this thing. It is somewhat difficult.


    In the Water War of Later Generations Forum, someone once said that if the ancient Chinese dynasties carried out the policy of separation of powers, would there be any new changes? Fei Qian just wants to say now that this situation is absolutely impossible. Although absolute power brings There is absolute corruption, but under the cultural influence of China''s fine tradition of intrigue, if the three powers are separated, they will definitely crush each other...


    In fact, the Han Dynasty has always been similar to the separation of powers among eunuchs, relatives, and nobles. However, it is obvious that the result of this cannot bring about a more ideal political situation.


    Fei Qian looked at the many wooden and bamboo slips in front of him and said: "Yuanzhi, in this case, you can ask Wen Zheng and Zijing to come and help me sort through these and mark the key points, and try to finish them within today..."


    ?Xu Shu hesitated a little bit. After all, some of the things before Fei Qian were relatively important. If one more person knew about it, there would be an additional risk of leakage.


    Fei Qian saw Xu Shu''s worry and said, "Yuan Zhi, bring me the most important items first, and deal with the rest with Wenzheng. After all, these matters have been backlogged for a while. No matter what, Let’s finish these official matters first.”


    ?So Xu Shu nodded, and then went out to call for someone. Anyway, Du Yuan and Zao Zhi usually work near Pingyang Mansion Office, and it is not far away, so it is more convenient to come.


    While Fei Qian asked his attendants to get two more desks to display, he was thinking that the political model of the Han Dynasty had proven to be unusable, so what kind of architectural structure was more suitable for the upper-level politics of ancient times?


    Have a headache, this is really a big problem...
