The Qinzhou Management Office has been changed to the Longyou Protectorate Office, with a lot of fewer staff and becoming deserted.

Under a big willow tree in the Houya, wine and various fruits were placed on the table. After the table, Xu Ping lay on a bamboo chair, looking leisurely at the mountains in the distance. With the smooth progress of the war, the construction of roads and bridges, and the opening of transportation lines between all parties, Qinzhou has become the largest metropolis west of Tongguan, and it is also a prosperous place in the world. Every day, there are tens of thousands of tea and horse trading outside, merchants from all directions gather, and people of all ethnic groups gather here. Only the Protectorate's Mansion sets up a place in the south of the city, away from the noisy market shops, and makes quiet in the noise, which has a unique sense of tranquility.

Wang Gongchen came in from outside, stepped forward and bowed, and said, "Today there is a big market outside, and it is very lively. Why can't you protect yourself? There are many merchants from the Western Regions in the past few months, and there are a lot of fresh goods, which look fresh."

Xu Ping asked Wang Gongchen to sit down and said with a smile: "Since we arrived in Qinzhou, we have been busy for more than a year, and finally we have a leisurely day. I just want to have a good time, so where can I join in the fun! Why, you haven't been shopping enough? Then go out and play for a while, don't miss us for the evening discussion."

Wang Gongchen waved his hands repeatedly: "No need for me, I'm just tired of walking outside, so I'm going to the Protectorate's Mansion to ask for saliva."

Xu Ping ordered the tea, drank for a while, and stood up and said to Wang Gongchen: "A few days ago, I wrote a letter from the capital. Wang Boyong mentioned that a minister recently wanted you to return to Beijing and go to the Sherenyuan, and asked me what I think. I said it was not appropriate. You were the first to take charge of money and grain along the way and supply more than 100,000 troops. It was the time to use this to temper yourself. If you missed this time, you would not know if there was such an opportunity in the future. Although the Ci minister was noble and Jun Qian was the top scholar, you were always indispensable, and you were just one or two years later."

Speaking of this, Xu Ping sat upright and said to Wang Gongchen seriously: "June, if I retreated three or four years ago, I will definitely support you to return to Beijing, but now it is different. I have changed to the Protectorate, and the Privy Council will definitely change greatly. If the Western Prefecture changes, the Secretariat will inevitably change. To put it bluntly, in a few years, the slogan of the Taiwan Censorship and did not go through practice, it is afraid that it will be difficult for the two governments to be in power. You are still young, so you can take this opportunity to practice more in local practice, especially now you are a military transshipment officer, both civil and military and political, and you will be in charge of all the start-ups. If you want to have a great future, don't rush to return to Beijing. Doing it honestly for a few more years will be of great benefit to you in the future!"

Wang Gongchen smiled and said, "I have been by the Dumai for several years. To be honest, I really look down on the two-type Ci ministers! A few years ago, I still felt trembling when I was in charge of a state, but now it is easy to turn my hands. The Dumai said, "As long as I am a good person to serve as the military transfer envoy, I will even wipe out the Hao thief and attack the thief's cave, how much is it that Ci ministers are stronger than the ones!"

Xu Ping nodded: "It's good that you understand. Ci ministers are noble, but it doesn't have much benefit to do it at a young age. It's natural to be a Ci minister, or even enter both prefectures. Without experiencing local practice, how useful is it to be promoted to the court in the current situation? It will be even more ugly if someone is driven down by it."

Ten years have passed, and Wang Gongchen is no longer the top young scholar who was suffering from the past. He has worked with Xu Ping for many years and has his own opinions on the affairs of the court. The two-type Ci ministers in the Sheren Academy and the Bachelor's Academy are noble, promoted quickly, and have high status. They are the ladder for the prosperity of civil officials, but that was the past and now they are different. As the three-type Ci ministers account for a larger proportion of the affairs of the Central Secretariat, and the finance position in the central administration is becoming more and more important. It is completely impossible for the two-type Ci ministers to be the same as before. According to the current trend, it is useless to be a Ci minister who has been appreciated by the emperor and the prime minister, and it is useless to promote to key positions, because you can't figure out the things in the yamen, and you will not be able to sit still when doing things. During the Tiansheng period, a large number of Jinshis ranked high by the three-type Ci officials, who are obsessed with the practice of the three-type Ci ministers, and they are watching from behind. How could they give Ci ministers who are not practical?

Xu Ping had been in Yongzhou for six years, and had accumulated a lot of money. After returning to the capital, he was able to handle various things easily, so he became successful later. Why didn’t Wang Gongchen wait for a few more years? When those who were talking in a mess and knew nothing about their practice could not sit in the official position, what would be wrong with him going back to the court? I was afraid of comparing everything, but not those ministers who were bad at doing so, so how could he show that he could do it? Now the affairs of the two governments are busy, and the court wants to add one or two people to the two governments to join. Zhao Zhen wanted to make Song Xiang, who he liked, as the chief magistrate, but he couldn’t settle for a few months. The last time Song Xiang had no chance with the two governments was because of the opposition of the old ministers, but this time it was purely because he was not good at it. Now he really couldn’t do the affairs of the two governments.

In the past ten years, Song Xiang had a good life on the road of a censor, but when he was about to take office, he found that the world had changed. To enter the Political Affairs Hall, Li Di found that he knew nothing about the money and grain affairs of the Three Departments. What is the use of him? Taking a seat will also affect the operation of the Secretariat. To enter the Privy Council, Lu Yijian was the first to reorganize the military system and seize military power from the Political Department and the Three Departments. Song Xiang also knew nothing about these practices and did not want him.

It would rather add another military general to rule than Song Xiang. Song Xiang is now a Hanlin bachelor, with a noble status and a high official position, so it is difficult to arrange for him to study practice again. Even Zhao Zhen was worried about letting him join the Third Division. Now, when there is any disturbance in the Three Divisions, he will be shocked. How dare he put him in? As for other yamen, what's the use of going? Only when he goes to the place, his official position is too high, and he stays away from practice when he goes to the place, which is very embarrassing.

Wang Gongchen took these things in his eyes and was very leisurely. During the Tiansheng period, Song Xiang had been reborn by Zhao Zhen. Wang Yaochen had a great future because he followed Xu Ping in Luoyang for several years. As for Wang Gongchen, from the time he was promoted to Qinfeng Road to serve as a military transfer envoy. After he was in office, he was confident that most of the positions in the court would not be difficult for him. Now he is anxious. With this first-class background, who can keep him in the local area? There is always a position in the court that is his own.

He talked to Wang Gongchen and talked about the arrangements for money and grain this year. Last year, Sichuan and Sichuan had a severe drought, and this year it was good weather, so there was no difficulty in collecting grain from Sichuan and Sichuan. Qinfeng Road was also a good year, and there was plenty of self-sufficiency. The food transport from Sichuan and Sichuan was needed for the Five Army. Now the road has been repaired, and Wang Gongchen did not have any pressure. The only thing is that Xu Ping reported to the court that the war in the northwest was not over in a short time. He needed to reserve grain and grass in important places. Wang Gongchen had to supervise the construction of the granary according to the requirements of the Protectorate.

While the two were chatting, Pang Ji came in from outside and talked with them. He had been transferred from the position of the Transportation Envoy of the Four Roads of Chuanxia Road, and was transferred to the inspector's censor sent by the Privy Council of the Longyou Protectorate, and was promoted to the Military and Justice Department. Now the person who organized the transport of grain from Sichuan and Shu was Wei Guan, who was transferred from the Jianghuai system to the official position of the Transportation Envoy, which also shows the court's attention to this position, because the Jianghuai Transportation Envoy has always ranked first in the middle of the line of capital.

There was nothing wrong today, Xu Ping recruited several Qin Fenglu officials and the commanders of the army to drink in the Houya, one was to reminisce about the old relationship, and the other was to discuss how everyone coordinated under the new system and how to arrange it in the second half of the year. The new official system was first implemented, and although Wang Gongchen and Pang Ji were no longer under Xu Ping's jurisdiction in the system, they used to regard Xu Ping as the commander of the journey and obeyed everything.
