Chapter 581: The conclusion of the matter, the magistrate Geng Wang
Chapter 581: The matter is concluded, the county magistrate Geng Wang
On the fifth day after Fang Tianhua went to the Shen Hall, everyone gathered at the court meeting.
"If you have the foundation, you will play early, if you don't have the foundation, you will retreat!"
Zhang Jun and Zhang Jun were the first, but they remained silent. Others also felt that the atmosphere was strange, and no one spoke.
Suddenly, Wu Yufeng, the Minister of Civil Affairs who had just taken office not long ago, came out of his team to report, "Your Majesty, I have something to report."
"speak!"
Sitting on the dragon chair, Zhao Xun looked neither sad nor happy!
"A few days ago, Fang Tianhua recounted the story of General Shen Tang of the Western Expedition. I believe that the circumstances of this matter are not yet clear, and it is impossible to judge General Shen's loyalty and treachery based on one person's words.
Therefore, I suggest that General Shen be transferred back to provide evidence."
"If it's a slander, then General Shen will be rewarded for his meritorious service in the war, but if he does something wrong, he should be punished to set an example.
In addition, Lianli City had not yet been decided and was temporarily managed by General Shen.
Now that Lianli City is safe, General Shen cannot sit in Lianli City at any time. Therefore, the imperial court should send capable ministers to set up a county government to control Lianli City."
After the words fell, Wu Yufeng raised her hands and asked for orders.
Zhao Min was silent for a moment, and then said calmly, "Dear ladies, what do you think about this matter?"
Others don't know the reason, so naturally they won't speak rashly.
Zhang Jun and others had anticipated this for a long time, and they knew that what was in front of them was just a show played by His Majesty, so how could they speak so easily?
After a long while, there was a sporadic sound.
"All ministers must obey His Majesty's holy judgment!"
Zhao Hao nodded, and then said, "In that case, the officials will be selected by the Ministry of Personnel to go to Lianli City.
When Zhang Aiqing and Shen Tang are transferred back, Chengdu Mansion still needs a general to take charge, so the Privy Council will select a suitable person."
Wu Yufeng naturally agreed happily. Although Zhang Jun was angry, he could only hold his nose and admit it.
After going to court, Zhang Jun thought for a while and drafted a few names and reported them to the Privy Council for Zhao Xun to make the decision. Zhang Jun did not want to participate in other matters at all.
The selection of officials was also very fast. It only took one day to select the candidates for the county magistrate of Lianli City. As for the other officials, they would wait until the county magistrate took office and then take office one by one.
There was no obstacle, and Zhao Xun was behind it, so on the third day, the matter became finalized and the imperial edict was issued.
First, Wang Huaichun was canonized as General Huaihua and went to Fulu, Chengdu to succeed Shen Tang!
By the way, this Wang Huaizhen is also a veteran general. In terms of qualifications, he is not inferior to Zhang Jun! It turns out that he is also a general who is good at fighting. However, because of his more domineering and arrogant personality, he is not a good person. Fortunately, in addition, Zhang Jun gradually came to power, so although the Song Dynasty had been fighting continuously in recent years, Wang Huai had no chance to go to the battlefield.
In today's Song Dynasty, people who are good at conquering and fighting are already in a hurry. Although there are some young people, they are lacking a bit if they want to shoulder the heavy burden of Chengdu.
Therefore, among Zhang Jun's candidates, in addition to selecting a few middle-aged generals, Wang Huaizhen and his own name were listed first.
Yes, Zhang Jun included himself among the people he recommended! Although he was somewhat dissatisfied with the emperor's decision.
However, Zhang Jun did not want to see Chengdu Mansion continue to be in dire straits, so if possible, it was one of the best ways for him to replace Shen Tang.
However, perhaps because Zhao Shen knew that Zhang Jun and others were dissatisfied with this matter, he chose Wang Huaiqi in the end.
After Zhang Jun learned the result, he didn't say much, he just sighed and made it up.
Then, Geng Wang was appointed as the magistrate of Lianli City and took office immediately!
This Geng Wang was a Jinshi three years earlier than Shen Tang, but he had no good luck. Although he won the Jinshi, he was never appointed to an official position.
However, he had a fellow villager friendship with the newly appointed Minister of Civil Affairs, so Wu Yufeng took this opportunity to find a job for this fellow villager.
The matter was concluded, and officials from the Ministry of Civil Affairs were sent to follow the two of them to Lianli City and Chengdu Fulu Road!
In other words, because of the relationship between Geng Wang and Wu Yufeng, the Ministry of Civil Affairs paid great attention to Geng Wang's appointment. Although he was only a seventh-grade county magistrate, there was a doctor from the Ministry of Civil Affairs who followed him there holding an imperial edict.
"This time, Mr. Li is here to help."
There were quite a few people in the group. There were more than ten officials delivering orders and simple ceremonial guards. In addition to the servants led by Geng Wang, a total of forty or fifty people headed to Lianli City in a mighty manner.
"Well! Hurry up and get on your way! After arriving at Lianli City to announce the decree, I will have to rush back to resume my duties."
The official's doctor was named Li Guangqing. Naturally, he looked down upon Geng Wang, a man who was good at flattering people. However, Shangguan had a destiny, so he could only make this trip.
Geng Wang nodded and didn't take it seriously. As long as Wu Yufeng, a fellow villager, was in the position of Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, these people would definitely give him some respect.
Speaking of which, Geng Wang has great confidence in this appointment.
As the saying goes, in three years, the prefect of Qing Dynasty can earn one hundred thousand snowflakes of silver. Although Liancheng is just one city, the trading centers of the two countries are here. This also indicates that this place will definitely become a good location with great wealth. .
According to the secret calculations of some people in the past few months, Lianli City's tax revenue alone can reach hundreds of thousands of taels every month, and in a year, it can reach several million taels of silver.
According to the rules in the officialdom, even if he only gets a little bit of oil and water, three years in this Liancheng City will be enough for him to make a lot of money! By then, with money to open the way, even if he is appointed as a state capital parent, It's definitely not an exaggeration.
In this way, I can be regarded as a shining star.
Moreover, if Wu Yufeng can stay in the position of Minister of the Ministry of Personnel for a few more years, through this relationship, maybe she can become one of the big shots in the court in the future...
With excitement in mind, the group stepped out of Lin'an and headed north towards Lianli City.
After two days of running, the city wall of Lianli City finally appeared in everyone's sight! Looking at the darkening sky, the group couldn't help but speed up their pace!
"Who is coming!"
The soldiers guarding the gate had long seen the dignity and dignity of this group of people, so they came directly to greet them.
Li Guangqing stepped forward and said, "Li Guangqing, one of the doctors in the official department, is Lord Geng Wanggeng, the magistrate of Lianli City appointed by the imperial court! I have come with an imperial edict to announce Lord Geng's appointment and appointment."
In fact, there is no need for a seventh-grade magistrate to issue a separate edict.
It's just that Lianli City is different from other prefectures and counties, and the Shen Tang incident is also involved, so Geng Wang's appointment seems a bit complicated.
Otherwise, if you directly take the appointment letter from the court, and at most there will be a minor official from the Ministry of Personnel to follow you, where will there be any imperial edict?
