In the second half of the fourth year of Kaibao, the military and political affairs of the Han Empire were not as peaceful as usual. Since the beginning of autumn, personnel inside and outside the imperial court underwent the biggest change in the year of Kaibao.
Several high-ranking Taoist officials in the south have been replaced, including Liangjiang, Fujian, Zhejiang, Hunan and Guangxi. As for the original officials, Fan Zhi, Zan Jurun, and Bian Guifan, they all resumed their duties.
Of course, this is not because the three of them did something bad, or because Emperor Liu had some ideas. Bian Guitan and the Duke of Ju, Li Tao, died in office one after another, and one of the twenty-four ministers died.
Fan Zhi was ill at an advanced age and found it difficult to succeed him, so he volunteered, so Liu Chengyou ordered that he be transferred back to Tokyo to recuperate.
As for Zan Jurun, it was the same reason. He had a physical problem. Like Li Gu, Duke of Ru, he suffered from wind paralysis. In addition, when Wu Yue rebelled, as the chief executive of Fujian and Zhejiang, he overspent his body and energy too much. Although the imperial court He was not held responsible, but he felt uneasy and resigned at the first opportunity. Emperor Liu issued an edict.
The situation has become obvious. With the passage of time, the important civil and military ministers and officials whom Emperor Liu relied on in the early years have gradually withered away. Murong Yanzhao died, and Fan and Zan fell ill. Emperor Liu could not help but feel sad, so he could only give more preferential treatment to his veterans.
On the other hand, after four years of appeasement, the regions of Liangjiang, Fujian, Zhejiang, and Guangdong and Guangxi have been completely integrated into the ruling order of the Han Dynasty, and the military and administration have become regular. It is also time to delegate the military and administration in accordance with the official rules and regulations of the imperial court.
After all, one person is in charge of two roads. It is only a temporary solution. It is not a long-term solution for the current big man. Therefore, the four southeast roads, plus the three roads of Huguang, suddenly opened up the positions of seven roads, which naturally attracted the attention of the government and the public. The wind moves both inside and outside.
After all, in the Han Dynasty, no matter how many temporary dispatches with great power were set up in various places, the local three divisions were the mainstream pastoral institutions and the highest authority in each place under normal circumstances.
There are local officials who are desperately mobilized to the capital and occupy high places in temples. Naturally, there is no shortage of officials in the capital. Among the seven, there are five people who are the most eye-catching.
Among them, Wang Zhu was transferred to Jiangnan as the chief envoy. He was also a close minister who came from the emperor's side. Compared with Wang Pu who was already the prime minister, Wang Zhu's official career was more "bumpy". After the peace of Huaihe River in the fifth year of Qianyou, he was Fang became an official, starting from a county magistrate. After nearly fifteen years, he finally became a chief official.
Even so, it still attracted a lot of attention, because Wang Zhu has not yet reached the age of forty. At the same time, because of his open-minded nature and lack of city government, although his resume is rich, he lacks the means. There is still some criticism in the court about entrusting him with the task. of.
For example, Dou Yi, the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, directly said that Wang Zhu still owed some heat, but he could not defeat Emperor Liu. Because, no matter how many shortcomings Wang Zhu had, he was always loyal to Emperor Liu, and his words and deeds for more than ten years were like that. Respect and even admiration were almost engraved in the bones, and Emperor Liu had heard about them.
Obviously, the background of the emperor's close ministers can be said to be of lifelong benefit to Wang Zhu. Jiangnan can be said to be the richest Taoist government in the Han Dynasty, and Wang Zhu suddenly became a political star in the Han Dynasty.
Lu Yin was transferred to the post of Chief Envoy of Zhejiang and Zhejiang. No matter what aspect of his appointment, no one raised any objections. With his rich experience and ability, no one in the entire Han Dynasty could choose anyone better than him.
of.
After all, he gradually became the emperor's "secretary" from a petty official in prefectures and counties. He was qualified to preside over the government a few years ago, but Emperor Liu took a fancy to him and transferred him to his side for a few years.
Two years ago, Emperor Liu only gave him a year's leave because of his mother Ding You. Later, he came back and was sent as a Southeast Observation Envoy. Now, he just succeeds Zan Jurun.
At the same time, because of the original rebellion, the two Zhejiang areas also needed a capable minister like Lu Yin to take charge of the government, and Emperor Liu was relieved. What is conceivable is that when Lu Yin returns to the court again, the position of prime minister will also be
Make room for him and wait for him to take his seat.
The transfer of Li Fang, the prince's tutor, to Hunan is a bit unexpected, but there is no criticism. After all, this is both the emperor's old friend and the prince's teacher. Who dares to gibberish?
After more than ten years of development and construction in two terms, Hunan's potential has initially been reflected. The growth of the population and the continuous growth have also caused Hunan's two taxes to increase year by year. By the fourth year of Kaibao, it was already considerable, allowing the court to
Don't dare ignore it.
Among the seven, there are three direct chiefs, who are served by officials with the qualifications of the emperor's close ministers. It can be seen that Emperor Liu still has a nepotistic side in employing people, especially for such high-ranking officials.
To say that it is unexpected, it must be the appointment of Zhang Yi to the east of Guangnan. The main reason is that he is a surrendered minister, but he is not as famous as Han Xizai and others. At that time, he was just a low-level officer in the Southern Tang Army. He was defeated in the war.
surrender.
With a strong heart, a flexible mind, a keen sense of smell, and good skills, he won the appreciation of Duke Pu of Yan Kingdom and climbed up the ladder step by step. By the time Wang Pu returned to the court, he was already in charge of the execution of a group.
Now, he has been promoted to a chief officer.
Of course, it took fifteen years, but it can’t be said to be easy. In addition, he is also Tanhua Zhang Ji’s uncle. Speaking of Zhang Ji, this little Zhang Tanhua has also been promoted to the magistrate of Shuozhou, and is still in Song Qi
His subordinates endured it with low eyebrows. However, for Zhang Ji, it was no longer low. The people who worked around the emperor had great advantages in career advancement.
In addition, there is Lu Huaizhong of Guangnan West Road. This is an official who has been transferred from the army to politics. He has served in the military before, from the border army to the Forbidden Army. And his main task in Guangnan is to provide supplies to Pan Mei during the Southern Expedition.
Logistical support.
At the same time as the exchange of chief officers of the Southeast Road Division, there was an adjustment of the chief officers of the southern military. Shi Shouxin, Zhao Yanjin, Zhang Yongde, and Cao Bin were transferred back to Tokyo one after another. Shi Shou trusted the deputy privy envoy and was ready to be promoted to a regular position at any time. Zhao Yanjin, Zhang Yongde, and Cao Bin
Bin was the deputy commander-in-chief of the third government office respectively.
At the same time, Gao Huaide and Xiang Xun also moved their homes and stationed in the southeast. As a result, the senior generals who were stationed in the southeast in the early years of Kaibao were basically replaced. Only Liu Guangyi was left, guarding Fujian.
Together with Guo Tingwei, he was preparing to go to sea to collect Liuqiu. Although it was basically just a military trip, when it came to expanding territory, he had to be more serious.
There was also an adjustment in all the ministries in the court, and Dou Yan was replaced in the Imperial Procuratorate. So far, the reputation of the five brothers of the Dou family has become more and more important. From the top to the Prime Minister's Department, down to the Daozhou, everyone has been assigned important positions.
The Financial Secretary was transferred most frequently. Zhang Mei, the former Southwest Transport Envoy, was appointed Salt and Iron Envoy, Shen Yilun, the former Hebei Transport Envoy, was appointed Duzhi Shangshu, and Wang Pu concurrently took charge of the Household Department.
Han Hui, the "camel camel" whom Emperor Liu had always admired, moved to Dali Temple and moved from the military to politics, from finance to punishment. Han Tong, his son, obviously became the focus of Emperor Liu's training.
In addition, Emperor Liu gave Li Ye, his uncle, the title of minister, and it may not take long for Li Ye to become the first person in the Han Dynasty to serve as a minister as a foreign relative.
