Chapter 316 Change of Civil and Military Officials
The next day, Qi Tai went to work. He is now the Dong Auxiliary Officer, so naturally he works in the palace. Normally it is in Qianqing Palace, and rarely in other places. Today is a normal day, so after he went to court Work at Qianqing Palace.
Since Yunxi succeeded to the throne, he has transformed the Qianqing Palace, where the emperor originally rested, into a place similar to the study room of an ordinary wealthy family. Most of the time, affairs were discussed in the Qianqing Palace. And the place where he rested most of the time was in Kunning. The palace realized the integration of the emperor's and empress' bedrooms.
Qi Tai sat in his seat, thinking about how to tell Chen Xingshan what he wanted, while dealing with the notes assigned by Yun Xi in his hand.
Qi Tai, who was a little distracted, was naturally less efficient in processing the zhezi, much slower than others. He had not processed two-thirds of the zhezi in his hand, while Bao Zhao had already finished processing them and handed them back to Yunxi.
Realizing that he was too slow, Qi Tai hurriedly chased away other thoughts and quickly finished processing the folds in his hand and handed them back to Yun He.
Of course, Yunxi also noticed that Qitai was not normal today, but his mind was occupied by another thing, and he had no time to care about Qitai now.
He is considering changing the commander-in-chief and the commander-in-chief of each place.
The commander-in-chief of the capital was the highest commander of the army in each province, similar to the current commander of the provincial military region; while the commander-in-chief was a special official position in the early Ming Dynasty. Only when troops were sent to suppress rebellion, the commander-in-chief was appointed as commander-in-chief, with the rank of general, or in Where there are frequent wars, there is a permanent commander-in-chief.
Therefore, the permanent commander-in-chief and commander-in-chief are very important positions, especially in ancient times when there was no modern communication system.
At the beginning of Yunxi's succession, he did not make large-scale changes in the permanent commander-in-chief and capital commanders for the sake of stability. But now Yunxi has been in power for more than half a year, and even the era name has been changed, from the 31st year of Hongwu to the first year of Jianye. , so Yunxi thought it was time to move these permanent generals and capital commanders.
Yunxi has been observing the generals of the Ming Dynasty since he became the emperor's grandson seven years ago. Now he has a relatively good understanding of the generals. In addition, this is a very important matter, so he personally decides on the candidates.
Yunxi thought: "The hereditary commander, Huaiyuan Hou Cao Xing, has been fighting in the northwest for a long time and is very familiar with the place. But I don't feel comfortable placing him in Shanshan. Let's use him as the commander of the capital of Henan." .'
"Although Li Xin, the hereditary commander of Chongshan, was granted the title of Xiaoling, he is also a man with military exploits. His son Li Xuhu is a member of my vassal, so let him be the commander of Shansedu Sidu. ."
"Huang Luo, the right-hand governor of the rear army governor's office, is quite diligent and was Chang Yuchun's confidant back then, so he was made the commander-in-chief of the Peking Commander-in-Chief."
"Tao Wen, the right governor of the Left Army Governor's Mansion, is very good at commanding troops, so I made him the retainer of the left guard department of the central capital. He will be of great use in the future."
"The hereditary commander, Liu Hou Yongping Hou Xie Cheng, is indeed capable, but he has no sons and his parents are dead. Such a man with few concerns would not dare to use him in an important position, so he was regarded as the commander-in-chief of the Shandong Dusi. Let’s do it.”
"..."
Yunxi had made up his mind. He wrote down the permanent commander-in-chief and the commander-in-chief of the capital. He asked a member of the Zhongshushe family to send the decree to the General Affairs Department, and then he began to read the notes that had been reviewed by the auxiliary officers.
Since the 30th year of Hongwu, except for those who were captured for making mistakes, there have been very few changes in local civil servants. Yunxi can tolerate the long-term non-replacement of those supporting the barbarians in remote ethnic areas, because if they change people, they may not be able to do a good job. Fuyi is a very professional job.
However, officials in most areas cannot tolerate staying in one place for a long time. Naturally, they are afraid of making a big move in the local area.
The municipal party committee secretary in Yunxi's hometown in his previous life served as the municipal party committee secretary in his hometown for more than 20 years, starting from the early days of Grandpa Deng's administration, when he was President Hu, and until the country's top leaders came once every ten years as usual. It was replaced after an inspection in his hometown.
This resulted in the Municipal Party Committee Secretary having great influence in the local area. There were many jingles about this Municipal Party Committee Secretary circulating in Yunxi’s hometown in his previous life, and after he was transferred, many underworld gangs were eliminated.
Coupled with Zhu Yuanzhang's words and deeds, Yunxi naturally wanted to replace the civil servants across the country after his throne was basically stable. At this time, he was looking at such a memorial.
At this time, there was no official position such as a permanent governor-general. Although a province had a chief envoy, the power of the chief envoy was very limited. The prefect had the power to confront the chief envoy, and in addition, the governor acted as a check and balance in the middle. Participate in politics, so since the prefect, governor, and political envoys all need to be replaced. And most of these officials are not familiar with Yunxi, so he can only ask the Ministry of Personnel to draw up a list for him to review.
Yunxi looked at the list in front of him. Yunxi still trusted Lian Zining. As long as he didn't know the civil servants who didn't think it was good, he would basically agree.
At this time, Yunxi saw a name: Tiexuan.
Seeing Tie Xuan's name, Yunxi slapped his head and thought to himself: 'How could I have forgotten him! Tie Xuan, among other things, is a good man in guarding the city and solving cases, and he is so loyal. The Minister of Punishment is absolutely assured.'
Then Yunxi took a closer look at Tie Xuan's previous position and the position to be appointed: he was previously the prefect of Nanyang, and this time he planned to serve as the Yanzhou branch of Shandong Province to participate in politics.
Yunxi thought again: "The magistrate of Nanyang is the fourth rank, and the political participation is from the third rank, and the minister is the second rank, so it would be inappropriate to directly appoint him as the minister. It happens that the political participation of the patrol also supervises the prisons, so it is good as a springboard. So then Let Tie Xuan take part in politics for one or two years. Then he will be transferred to Beijing.'
Yunxi's plan was decided. After reading this page, he approved: "I know, let's formally draft the decree." Then he threw it aside.
Next is the matter of adjustments by some commanders across the country.
According to the rules set by Zhu Yuanzhang, many commanders are hereditary. Regardless of whether this is appropriate or not, Yunxi is reluctant to move now, so this time he is mobilizing those commanders who are not hereditary.
I don't know what happened today, but Yunxi saw a familiar name again: Sheng Yong.
Yunxi didn't pat his head, but he still thought secretly in his heart: "How could I forget him too! Although he is not a first-class military general, he has many generals in his hands and there is no shortage of this one, but he is allowed to serve like this." Unimportant official positions are a waste of talent! They must be reused.'
Yunxi took a closer look at Sheng Yong's new appointment: the commander of King Lu's left guard, and concurrently the chief of the ceremonial guard of King Lu's palace.
According to the rules of the early Ming Dynasty, the commanders of the three princes' bodyguards were of the same rank and had the same power. No one could control anyone, and they were all led by the prince. However, for King Lu, three bodyguards were once established, but later because of the new Lu
When the king was too young to lead troops, a problem arose: if something happened to the prince's three bodyguards, who would be the final decision-maker.
In order to solve this problem, Zhu Yuanzhang asked a certain commander, usually the Zuowei Commander, who also served as the Master of Ceremonies and Wei Zheng, as the final decision-maker. Of course, this was only a temporary solution, and everything would naturally change when the prince was in place.
The final decision is made by the Prince.
Therefore, Sheng Yong's new appointment is equivalent to a small general army. Yunxi feels that this is still a relatively important position, and it is equivalent to a promotion for Sheng Yong, who was only a commander before. So Yunxi thought about it and decided
It is better to keep this appointment unchanged for the time being and look for opportunities to promote him.
Then Yunxi read all the information, approved it with 'yes', and gave it up.
Then Yunxi remembered the former Jinyiwei commander Guo Hongtao who he had met in Fengyang when he was on the northern tour four years ago. Yunxi remembered that Guo Hongtao was very good at handling intelligence. At that time, he was
I was thinking of letting him take charge of the foreign intelligence agency after taking the throne.
Yunxi asked Zhongshu Sheren to draw up a decree: "Xuan Fengyang Guard Commander Guo Hongtao came to Beijing to see him."
Later, Yunxi was afraid that he had forgotten Tiexuan and Shengyong again, so he said to Wang Xi: "Write down the names Shengyong and Tiexuan and tell me about them at the beginning of next year."
Wang Xi promised.
Yunxi was afraid that Wang Xi would also forget, so he asked the young eunuch to go back to the bedroom where he was resting in Qianqing Palace and write the two names "Sheng Yong and Tie Xuan" on paper, and then stick it on the side of the bookshelf.
Then Yunxi felt relieved and continued to look at the folds.
At this time, Yunxi saw a document, which recommended Xu Yingxu as the commander of the capital.
Yunxi allowed his ministers to nominate officials. After all, the Ming Dynasty was so big and there were so many officials, he might have buried some talents, so even the official positions of permanent commander-in-chief and capital commander, which he had already indicated to draw up, were allowed.
The minister recommends it. Of course, whether he will listen or not is another matter.
But Xu Yingxu obviously should not be in this list of military generals who may be buried. Xu Yingxu is Xu Da's third son. He is now the commander of the Chinese Army Governor's Palace. There is no way he is a figure that Yunxi doesn't know.
And everyone knows that Xu Yingxu has no abilities and is just making a living.
Yunxi thought for a while, and then thought that Xu Huizu didn't have an official position yet, so he understood what this meant. The Xu family is not necessarily Xu Huizu, this is a test!
In fact, Yunxi had the idea of appointing Xu Huizu. His idea was to let the three princes who married or were about to marry Xu Huizu's sister as their princesses to have their own wives.
After obtaining the fiefdom, he took Xu Huizu out to conquer the world.
The so-called father and son soldiers fight tigers. Since we are all related, even if they are not father and son, I am afraid they are more careful than others. And if the Duke of Wei is sent to the vassal state, then the Duke of Wei's salary will come from the vassal state, and the central court will
A sum of money can be saved, and the land owned by Wei Guogong can also be recovered and redistributed. It can be said that it kills two birds with one stone.
But Yunxi ignored the fact that he had not appointed Xu Huizu for a long time, which caused panic in the Xu family. If things go on like this, it will not be a good thing.
Therefore, although Yunxi was angry with the Xu family for testing him, he immediately issued an order: "Make Xu Huizu, Duke of Wei, the left governor of the former military governor's mansion."
