Wang Yi, Yan Chao, and the others had saved the territory of the Ming Dynasty. Emperor Yongle was so pleased that he promoted the four of them to the Council of Beijing. The four of them rose to the top in one fell swoop and became imperial officials. When the news spread, they were envied.
Like them, they are the guys who make a living by relying on testimonials. [] But this kind of thing requires not only ability, but also opportunity. It cannot be compared. When old friends are jealous, they must pay a visit and congratulate you.
Many military officers in Beijing were very fond of what the four of them had done. Now that they were colleagues, they couldn't help but get close to each other and invited the four of them to a banquet. Wang translated, Yan Chao and the four of them knew that they were where they are today, all thanks to Xia Xun.
They were unable to decide whether to invite invitations from all parties, but Xia Xun said: "Yang Feng, a member of the Ministry of Etiquette in Beijing, is a nice person, and you can get close to him." The four of them understood and happily went to Yang Feng's appointment.
Although these four people were new to the officialdom, they were veterans who had made countless mistakes in their lives. Naturally, they understood the risks of being on the wrong team. With Xia Xun's seemingly unintentional words, they understood how to choose.
Zhu Di now regards Xia Xun, his brother-in-law, as his lucky general. Xia Xun has returned to Beijing because of the North Korea incident, and he also explained to Zhu Di the reason why it is easier to take the initiative to return to Liaodong later than to rush back in time, so Zhu Di is not in a hurry.
He was asked to go back to Liaodong. Taking advantage of this opportunity, I just asked him to participate in the arrangements for Liaodong.
In the past, there were no local government offices in Liaodong, only health offices. The entire Liaodong Dusi was subordinate to the Shandong Commandery Division. The Liaodong Dusi was responsible for administrative, judicial and other matters, and was also supervised by the Shandong Chief Executive Division and the Inspectorate Division.
.Now that Liaodong needs to set up an independent administrative system, it will be inconvenient for Shandong to supervise it. In this way, Liaodong will have to set up a separate administrative envoy department. According to the inspection envoy department, the Liaodong capital department will also be independent and upgraded from a military division to a military region.
This involves too many changes, and accordingly, a large number of officials will be promoted and appointed. It will be convenient for Xia Xun to stay in Beijing for a while to fight for power for himself.
Xia Xun knew very well that Liaodong was officially established as a province (the province was called the province in the Yuan Dynasty, and in the Ming Dynasty this kind of administrative division was called the Chief Envoy, but this name is too confusing. Except in official documents, people generally still call it the province in spoken language).
A big piece of cake must be given to others, and taking it all yourself will attract public anger. Out of necessary precautions, the emperor will not agree, and it is impossible to let Liaodong become his one-handed palace.
Therefore, he has long been mentally prepared to give up some of his interests, and it is inevitable to ask people to mix sand in the sand at various government offices. As long as the general direction is still in his own hands and the main power is in his own hands, it will not affect his reform of Liaodong according to his own ideas.
, the necessary compromises and concessions must be made to win the election.
However, he must get the top positions of the Chief Envoy Si Yamen and the Du Commander Si Yamen. One of these two yamen is in charge of the people, and the other is in charge of the military. They are the two most important yamen. He cannot single-handedly promote them.
It is not impossible to get him into the hands of rising officials. He is not a power-hungry person, and he does not want to stay in Liaodong for a long time. But if someone comes up who defies him, wouldn't it be a bad thing?
He didn't need to say this worry, Zhu Di also understood it. Zhu Di immediately nodded and agreed to the promotion of the shogunate chief Shi Wanshiyu as the envoy to Liaodong. Before he was exiled to Liaodong, he had already served as a prefect, but now his approach to handling the situation in Liaodong has changed.
It is remarkable that his prestige has been established, and no one else can find fault with him when he is appointed as the chief envoy.
The chief envoy is in charge of the administration of a province. The imperial court has virtues and bans. They are promulgated and issued to the department. All officials are of full rank and are responsible for inspecting whether they are competent or incompetent and reporting them to the Ministry of Civil Affairs and the Metropolitan Procuratorate. Every three years.
He led his prefecture, prefecture, and county officials to pay homage to the capital to listen to the laws. He participated in government affairs, consulted and guarded the various roads, and was assigned to take charge of grain storage, farming, Qing army, post missions, water conservancy, and pacifying the people. Experience, capital affairs
Responsible for correspondence, polishing, proofreading, editing of files, and questioning of names of criminals.
Once he wins this position, he can basically guarantee that Liaodong will carry out reforms according to his intentions. As for the subordinate officials at all levels including political participation, council, experience, ministers, ambassadors, etc., others can add sand if they want. Xia Xun already has what he has at hand.
There are not enough manpower. It is not a bad thing to transfer some experienced officials. Don't be afraid if some of them have ulterior motives. Wanshiyu is a high-ranking official who has climbed up from the grassroots step by step. If he can even train a subordinate official who likes to challenge his superiors,
If he doesn't have any means, then he is just an Adou who cannot be supported, and cannot be used for much purpose.
The other is the Du Commander and Envoys Division. Xia Xun fought for this position because the reform of the military household and farmland system in Liaodong could not bypass the Du Commander and Envoy Division. The position of the Du Commander and Envoy Division is still being announced. According to the two divisions, there is no one
Without the cooperation of the Commander-in-Chief and Envoys Division, the military reform cannot proceed, so naturally this position should be left to Zhang Jun.
Qiu Fu was also eyeing the position in the army. The old commander did not say anything when Xia Xun was competing for the position of Chief Envoy, and finally took action. After a dispute between Xia Xun and Qiu Fu, Zhu Di finally made the decision, and Liaodong
Zhang Jun will serve as the capital commander. According to the system, there should be two commanders and co-presidents of the capital. One of them is Kaiyuan Hou Dingyu, and the other... is Tang Jie.
Qiu Fu was brave and tried his best to drive this nail into Xia Xun's heart.
Tang Jie was originally a minister of the Fifth Army Commander's Office. He was now transferred to the Liaodong Governor's Office and promoted to the same position. In terms of seniority and status, he is justified. The problem is that he and Xia Xun had a son-killing feud. Although Xia Xun decided the case impartially,
It should not be regarded as a personal vendetta. When Tang Jie met the driver, he just told the story with tears. Because Qiu Fu had already planned to kill Xia Xun in advance, he did not accuse Xia Xun of unfair law enforcement, but asked Tang Jie to work with him.
, it’s not quite appropriate after all.
However, after Qiu Fu unsuccessfully tried to win the position of Liaodong Commandery with Hu Yanbo, the commander-in-chief of Shanhaiguan, he retreated to the second best and appointed Tang Jie as the commander and commander of Liaodong Commandery. I wonder if Zhu Di wanted to take care of his face, or had other considerations.
After a while, he actually nodded and agreed, the emperor's heart was unpredictable.
Qiu Fu only thought that this meant that the emperor had more trust in himself, an old minister who had followed the emperor for many years, and he was overjoyed. Xia Xun reluctantly agreed, thinking that if Tang Jie knew how to measure and know how to advance and retreat, then it would be fine.
If he went to Liaodong and dared to cause trouble under his nose... Xia Xun sneered secretly, with a cold murderous intention in his heart...
According to the official system of the Ming Dynasty, the capital, cloth, and three divisions stood on the same tripod, which could effectively prevent the power from being concentrated on one person, but it would inevitably cause some disadvantages in its application. Therefore, the Ming court often sent supervisory censors or ministers as governors.
The governor, the patrol officer, etc. are all superior to the three divisions and coordinate the problems encountered by the three divisions. Now that Xia Xun is the governor, this problem has been solved.
In addition, it is necessary to have department officials to inspect whether the officials below the governor are corrupt, wise or foolish, and how capable they are. Most of the officials in Liaodong have just taken office, so the inspection of them must not be relaxed, and this power,
Most of them are controlled by the imperial envoys. Huang Zhen and Shao Yunfeng, who are currently active in Liaodong, are on this mission. After the two arrived in Beijing, their correct reports on the situation in Liaodong promoted Zhu Di's correct judgment.
Now that various yamen in Liaodong have been formally established or promoted, a large number of officials have been added at once, and supervision work has become even more important. It is not enough to rely on these two people alone, and it is inevitable that these two people have the label of Xia Xun in their eyes.
Some more independent personnel are needed to join. The problem is that Huang Zhen is the imperial envoy to the Imperial Procuratorate and the third in command. How many people do you send there? Unless they are Chen Ying, the imperial envoy and Wu Youdao, the deputy imperial envoy, they are all his subordinates.
The supervisory role is also weak.
Luo Qian then proposed, seemingly fairly, that the ministers in Beijing should serve as inspectors to make up for the shortcomings of the Metropolitan Procuratorate and form a third-party supervisory force. Luo Qian's proposal also had precedents in the Ming Dynasty, such as the governor-general and governor,
Inspection, envoy and experience, prime minister, admiral and governor, governor, etc., as long as they play a role according to the time and place.
Luo Qian's proposal could solve this problem, so Zhu Di followed the trend and followed Luo Qian's proposal to let Chen Shou, a member of the Beijing government, participate in politics and serve as Prime Minister of Liaodong to supervise military, political and judicial affairs.
"Nang Xipi, are you the only one who knows how to mix sand?"
Not to be outdone, Xia Xun immediately proposed to put Yang Feng, a member of the Ministry of Rites in Beijing, and Li Yesian, Wu Qingyu, Wang Yi, and Yan Chao, who had just been appointed by Zhu Di as counselors in Beijing, into the Prime Minister's Yamen.
These people are familiar with Liaodong affairs and can better supervise the local governance situation. After some bargaining, in the end "everyone is happy!"

The royal kitchen is as big as a palace. When it was first built, skilled craftsmen tried their best to design various pipes and vents for exhausting smoke and odor. Therefore, even if dozens of stoves were used for cooking at the same time, there would be no oily smoke in the room.
.
The charcoal fires were blazing under the stoves. Ming'er was walking back and forth with her little hands behind her back, giving orders like a general. My husband left and came back, but as he was about to leave again, Ming'er was even more reluctant to leave, knowing that
Xianggong will return to Liaodong soon. Today, Ming'er is going to cook a few dishes for Xianggong in person as a farewell party for the husband.
The little Lolita back then is now a charming young lady, with plump breasts, slender waist, and all kinds of enchantment hidden deep in her bones. She looks like a jade-like person, and her lightly painted face is due to constant
Walking around in the heat of the Japanese room makes her look like a peach blossom, and her face becomes even more gorgeous.
"Princess, the mutton and radishes are ready!"
A palace cook who was honorably demoted from holding a ladle to serving a table because of the arrival of the princess said respectfully.
Ming'er said "Oh" and walked over.
The goat was a well-chosen male goat, and it was a lamb. The mutton was naturally the smoothest and juiciest part of the meat, and it was appropriately fat and lean. The imperial chef removed the fascia, washed it, removed the blood and foam, and then fished it out and rinsed it.
Cut it into cubes, prepare onions, ginger, garlic and other condiments, and then report it to Ming'er.
After Ming'er had prepared all the ingredients, she washed her hands and put the ingredients into the pot in the cooking order. After everything was done, she ordered people to set the fire. At this time, the cook preparing the second dish also prepared the ingredients. Ming'er
Then he walked to the second stove.
While Xia Xun was busy with Liaodong in the palace, and Ming'er was busy with her husband in the kitchen, several fast horses dragged smoke and dust rolling in from the south, with red flags on their backs. They arrived at the gate of the city, and one of them took out a waist badge first.
, was thrown in the air to a school captain guarding the city, and the horse rushed into the city wrapped in a whirlwind without stopping.
There was a change in Annan, and they were ordered by the eldest prince Zhu Gaochi, who was supervising the country in Nanjing, to travel at night and starry to report the news.
