But how can we change the decision of the officials in the face of the wails of the unlucky ones who were selected!
Damn it, this matter in the Ryukyu Mansion is something that His Majesty is personally watching. What would Your Majesty think if His Majesty and our staff were unable to select suitable officials at all levels for several days and were still unwilling to go after they were selected?
If the Holy Emperor casually said something unfavorable about the work of the staff, the official hats of these leaders would fly off in minutes, so they used a sharp knife to cut through the mess and directly selected more than 20 mid-level officials, including
A prefect, two county magistrates, and a prefect's yamen, the main subordinate officials in the two magistrates' yamen, such as the co-prefects in the prefect's yamen, the directors of various bureaus, the county seats in the magistrate's yamen of Ryukyu Prefecture and Amami Prefecture, and the directors of various departments.
In addition, there are three standard offices: the president of the Supervisory Yuan, the director of the tax bureau, and the president of the court, which are independent offices that have nothing to do with the local administrative offices.
As mentioned above, these officials are still the main mid-level officials. As for the low-level officials and general staff, they will be arranged separately. In addition, some local Chinese indigenous people will be selected to serve.
Among this group of more than 20 unlucky mid-level officials was Shi Huo, the former Prime Minister of Songyang County, Zhejiang Province, who was born in Xuanping, Jiangxi Province and was awarded the third grade of Jinshi in the fifth year of his fifth year!
But when he received the letter of appointment as the magistrate of Amami Prefecture in Ryukyu Prefecture, he almost fainted from excitement. Several servants and maids pinched everyone and poured cold water on them. This is what made our poor Lord Shihuo suffer.
Wake up!
After waking up, he was completely stunned, and then looked out the window like a fool!
No one knows that at this moment, he is roaring in his heart: Master thief, do you want to be so cruel!
I have been studying poetry and books for more than 20 years. Is it easy? I have not had these good days for two years. This time I returned to Beijing to be a candidate for the post. I thought I could be transferred back to Gyeonggi to serve in various ministries. Even if I was promoted one level, but in Gyeonggi
Being an official is naturally very good. After a few years of being sent abroad, you can basically get a county magistrate.
At that time in the Qianming Dynasty, there were many corrupt officials and the imperial examination was full of shady affairs. He could not even pass the exam. It was not easy to wait until the rise of the Tang Dynasty and he ushered in the climax of his life.
He passed all the way and took part in the imperial examination for the first time, which was in the third year of Xuanping, and passed the examination as a scholar. Although he failed to pass the examination as a scholar that year, he successfully passed the examination in the following year, that is, in the fourth year of Xuanping.
In the fifth year, he participated in the joint examination held in Jinling and became a sergeant in one fell swoop. Although he was only a third-class fellow Jinshi, he was still a Jinshi.
After passing the Jinshi examination, he first interned at the Ministry of Agriculture for three months. After three months, he passed the examination and was promoted to the director of the Agriculture and Forestry Department in Songyang County, the prefecture capital. He was promoted to the seventh rank!
This position is also a relatively important section chief position within the county government within the Datang system.
Most of the internal institutions of provinces, prefectures, prefectures, and counties in the Tang Dynasty also imitated the cabinet.
Within the provincial governor's yamen, there are various departments, including the patrol department, the agriculture and forestry department, the commerce department, the public works department and other departments directly under it. In addition, there is also the taxation department. However, the taxation department has nothing to do with the governor's yamen, because the tax agency has always been the tax department.
Directly under the jurisdiction of the Ministry, there are also the Provincial Inspectorate and the Provincial Government, which are independent agencies at the provincial level. Although their chief officials are one level lower than the governor, they have no direct subordinate relationship with each other.
Then it can also be understood this way: the provincial governor has no jurisdiction over the Provincial Supervisory Office, the Provincial People’s Court, and the Provincial Taxation Department!
Prefectures and counties are similar. Prefectures have various departments, and counties have various subjects!
Because many powers have been decentralized, the powers in local government have also been adjusted. Currently, for the internal agencies of local government, the most important powers are generally the three departments, business, agriculture and forestry, and patrol.
The patrol police organization is naturally responsible for public security, and things like public security are very important there. However, in Datang's system, although the local chief officer has jurisdiction over the local patrol police system, the official system of the patrol police also
It is independent, and promotions are all internal promotions, so the position inside has nothing to do with ordinary civil servants.
The Chief of Commerce is in charge of industrial, commercial, mining and other industrial and commercial economic development affairs. Well, the Ministry of Industry of Datang or the local Public Works Department are actually infrastructure and water conservancy departments and have nothing to do with industry.
The business agencies in charge of industrial and commercial economic development naturally have great power, and this is more so in places where industry and commerce are more developed.
The agricultural and forestry institutions are not weak either, because this institution is in charge of agriculture, fishery, animal husbandry and other affairs, and food is the most important thing for the people. In fact, most areas still have an agricultural economy, so this institution also has real power.
great.
Which of the above two agencies has more power depends on the location. In a county dominated by agriculture, the Agriculture and Forestry Department is naturally the most powerful. But if it is Shanghai County, a trading port and a county with very developed industry and commerce,
The Agriculture and Forestry Department is basically a decoration, and the Business Department is the core department.
In the local yamen, the civil servants in charge of these two organizations are generally trained civil servants. They are also the starting point of most new scholars in official circles. After completing their positions in the seventh rank, the next step is
From being a county magistrate of the sixth rank, if you work for a few more years, you will be a county magistrate of the sixth rank.
If you don't do well, then you can't expect to become a local official in your life. You can just hang around in the subordinate agencies of the yamen at all levels!
Shi Huo's ability was not very good, but not too bad either. After working as the chief of the agriculture and forestry department for half a year, he was naturally promoted to the county magistrate of Songyang County.
Last month, he was transferred back to Gyeonggi by an imperial edict. Naturally, he was not working as a job, but was organized to undergo training and study!
In the past two years, the Ministry of Personnel has specially opened a training class for middle and low-level officials. The training targets are middle-level officials at the four levels of Zheng, from the sixth rank, Zheng, and from the fifth rank.
Shi Huo also knew that in the past two years, anyone who was promoted from county magistrate to county magistrate, or whose rank remained unchanged but was transferred back to Gyeonggi Province, basically had to go through such a formality.
In other words, Shi Huo knew at that time that he was going to be promoted!
But then he thought that after he happily accepted the training for a month, he was promoted, but he was sent to Amami Prefecture!
Damn, what the hell is that place? Shi Huo knows it. Not only does he know it, he also knows it very well, because there has been a lot of fuss about the establishment of a government in Ryukyu in recent days. Basically, all the candidate officials in Beijing know who the Ministry of Personnel is looking for.
An unlucky guy went to work in Ryukyu.
And now, I have become one of these unlucky people!
Damn, Shi Huo knows that for the sake of fairness, the Ministry of Civil Affairs has compiled dozens of lists of candidates for Ryukyu County Magistrate, but he was just so unlucky to be selected!
Can I not go?
Nonsense, you think the Ministry of Civil Affairs is run by your family and you won’t go if you don’t want to!
Shi Huo was very sensible and did not make a fuss. Instead, he started packing his bags with a look of despair and wrote a letter!
The letter said that he did not tell his family that he was unlucky enough to be assigned to work on Amami Island. He didn’t want to go but he had no choice but to go!
In his letter to his father, he probably told him this, saying that the empire's soldiers were newly expanding their territory. At a time when people with lofty ideals were guarding the frontier, he, Shi Huo, was deeply favored by the emperor, and it was his duty to guard the frontier, serving the empire.
Even if you make a small contribution to your great achievements, even if you die in that miserable place in Amami, it will still be your son's honor. Dad, you are also a scholar, so you naturally understand this truth. However, I am a woman, so I'm afraid I can't understand it.
The glory and greatness of this matter requires more explanation from you, Dad.
Moreover, we will be escorted by Imperial Navy officers. Although it is thousands of miles away, there is no need to worry about safety. Well, there is a possibility that we can come back alive.
The letter he wrote to his eldest son said that I am going to make great achievements. You must take good care of your grandparents and your mother. Don’t let outsiders bully you. If anyone dares to bully you while I am not at home, give me a letter.
I'll deal with them severely. You're welcome. If you feel like you can't handle it, go ask dad and my friends for help. Dad, they and I are all close friends who have been prostitutes together. You can come to help. As long as it's not
It's a big deal, for my sake, they will help you.
There is still homework that cannot be neglected. You are also twenty-two years old this year. It is an elegant thing to go to the small green building to socialize occasionally, but don't indulge in it and waste your homework because of it. Don't be satisfied with the little scholar.
In terms of fame, I have asked someone to find an admission spot for you in Jiangxi Preparatory School. Don’t waste time on the provincial examination. Study hard for me in the preparatory school. After studying for a few years, go directly to the Imperial College of Liberal Arts. If you fail the exam,
Go to the Imperial College of Literature, I will break your legs when I come back!
Although the letter to my family was very righteous, it still had a deep sense of despair. It was said to be an ordinary letter from home, but it was no different from a suicide note.
Not to mention, Shi Huo really wrote it as a suicide note. Damn, that's Ryukyu. It's so far away from the mainland of China. It's also a newly conquered territory. In addition to various factors such as acclimatization and acclimatization, it's hard to go to Ryukyu.
To be honest, he was really unsure whether he would be able to finish his three-year term alive and come back.
Along with Shi Huo, there were more than twenty other mid-level officials who were assigned to serve in Ryukyu, and in addition there were hundreds of low-level officials who were assigned to serve in Ryukyu.
In order to prevent unnecessary accidents from happening, the officials were even more afraid that they would regret it and make a life-and-death reluctance to go, so they acted very quickly. After the arrangements were made, they immediately contacted the navy and directly contacted the navy's ships, and then
The more than one hundred people were rushed to the navy transport ship like they were chasing ducks.
When they boarded the ship at Jinling City Pier, many of their family members and friends came to see them off!
The scene of farewell was filled with cries and shouts, which made those who saw it sad and those who heard it shed tears. It was so spectacular that people who didn't know it thought it was a funeral.
On the Jinling Pier that day, many talented people and beauties were also very interested in poetry. Various poems that had been secretly prepared in advance or composed on the spot by talented people appeared!
Various poems with titles such as "Sending Stone Huo to Ryukyu" and "Giving Stone Huo" were praised by many people that day, and many of them were well-written. Then they aroused the praise of the young ladies on the Qinhuai River in Jinling City, making the poet
The talented poets of these poems came to the limelight, and from then on they embarked on the beautiful life of free overnight stays on the Qinhuai River that even the emperors envied! u
