Geng Scroll Chapter 200 Game, Transaction, Compromise

 "This is not appropriate!" Fang Congzhe said firmly, "Huifu is an upright man and peaceful in his work. Even though he did not have particularly outstanding achievements in his tenure as Shuntian Prefecture, he was conscientious and well-respected. Chengfeng's suggestion is not a sign of Jiang Youshi. Human humiliation?”

Wu Daonan, Yin of Shuntian Prefecture, whose courtesy name was Huifu, was a famous scholar in Jiangyou. He was famous in Jiangnan for his outstanding literary talent. At the same time, he had good friends with Ye Xianggao, Fang Congzhe and Li Tingji. Both Ye Fang and Ye Fang also knew that although Wu Daonan was not talented in literature, Although he is very secular, he is indeed lacking in the ability to do things, and he does not like secular affairs. When he was appointed as Shuntian Fuyin, he basically fell into a hands-off state, which was indeed unsatisfactory.

If Gu Bingqian did not serve as the Minister of Rites, letting Wu Daonan serve as the Minister of Rites would have been the best choice that everyone would be happy with. However, the problem is that Gu Bingqian is also famous for his literary talent in Jiangnan, and he is more trusted by the emperor. Wu Daonan is not as good at observing the wind and distinguishing colors. Gu Bingqian had many people and was not trusted by Emperor Yonglong, so it was too difficult to be promoted to Minister of Rites, but it would be a humiliation for him to be transferred to the position of Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of Rites to serve as Gu Bingqian's deputy.

"Zhong Han's words are wrong." Qi Yongtai retorted unceremoniously: "It's a bit ridiculous to apply the reputation of conscientiousness to Huifu. I have no prejudice against Brother Huifu, but the relationship between Shuntian Prefecture and Yin is very important. The current situation of Shuntian Prefecture It is not good, especially after the Mongolian invasion last year, the public security situation in Sunchon Prefecture has deteriorated sharply. The refugees have not been properly resettled so far. There are constant cases of robbery and kidnapping in the capital city. There are actually horse bandits in the capital. According to the Ministry of Criminal Affairs and the According to Long Jinwei's news, at least 70% of the counties in Shuntian Prefecture have been overrun by the White Lotus Sect, and some local gentry are among them. The local government is unable to respond, and it is likely to cause disaster. If this is allowed to continue, what will happen to the Gyeongsang Province? Safe?"

Qi Yongtai's words also hit the weak point of Ye Fang and the two of them. The current security situation in Shuntian Mansion was not peaceful, and the emperor was also asking about the proliferation of the White Lotus Sect in Gyeonggi a few days ago. This was obviously reported to the emperor by Long Jinwei. Only the Emperor would specifically raise this matter. Under normal circumstances, the Emperor rarely inquires about such specific matters.

Qi Yongtai obviously refused to give up: "In addition, there is also a statement from the Ministry of Revenue, saying that the Jingcang of Shuntian Prefecture is in short supply, and many of the warehouses used for relief in various counties have messed up accounts. Not even one out of ten is saved. This winter's refugee relief has been completed. If it is used up, and there are still two months left in this spring, there is a high possibility of a food shortage. Even the food on the market in Beijing may be affected and the price of food will rise sharply, causing instability among the people in Beijing..."

Fang Congzhe frowned and explained: "Chengfeng, this is mainly because the autumn taxes from Jiangnan and Huguang last winter have been delayed, which leads to insufficient grain storage in the Beijing warehouse..."

"Zhong Han, you are in charge of the household department, don't you still know the grain storage situation in Jingcang?" Qi Yongtai sneered, "Even if the Jiangnan autumn tax has not arrived, the grain storage in Jingcang should be at least 50% to cope with this year's refugees. There should be no problem with the shortage of necessities and winter and spring grain, but why is it that there are still two months and even four or five months until the summer grain harvest, but there is not much left in the capital, or even empty? How does Shuntian Prefecture usually supervise The grain warehouses in each county? Have any problems been discovered? If so, why haven't countermeasures been taken in advance?"

"Who is in charge of Shuntian Prefecture?" Ye Xianggao frowned. He knew a thing or two about this situation, but he didn't understand it as thoroughly as Qi Yongtai. The situation was so serious that he, as the chief assistant, didn't know it. It was obvious that the household department

In other words, Fang Congzhe deliberately concealed some information from himself. After all, Wu Daonan and Fang Congzhe had a particularly close personal relationship, but at the same time Wu Daonan was a scholar of Jiangyou, and he and Ye Xianggao were allies in the alliance of scholars of Jiangyou (Jiangxi), Fujian.

"Mei Zhiye." Fang Congzhe was also a little embarrassed, and his voice was much lower.

Zhizhong was in charge of grain storage, horse administration, military craftsmanship, fuel charcoal, river canals, and tidal flat affairs. He was also an important official in Shuntian Prefecture after Fu Yin and Fu Cheng.

"Macheng Mei family?" Ye Xianggao also knew that the Mei family was a famous and prominent family in Huguang.

"Yes." Li Tingji continued: "Mei Zhiye was originally an editor of the Hanlin Academy, and was promoted to the governor of Shuntian Prefecture the year before last..."

"How is this person doing?" Ye Xianggao raised his eyebrows. If this person is not capable of doing things, and the prime minister of Shuntian Mansion is always vacant, this Shuntian Mansion will indeed be in trouble.

"It's quite satisfactory." Li Tingji thought for a while, "He was studying history in the Hanlin Academy and didn't have much contact with local affairs, so..."

Ye Xianggao immediately understood that this meant that this scholar from the Mei family in Huguang had average abilities. The "fair" in Li Tingji's mouth was not a compliment, but a derogatory comment. Basically, it was the same as mediocrity and mediocrity.

Poor execution is synonymous with poor execution. Wu Daonan encountered such a political situation, coupled with the absence of the Prime Minister, it is no wonder that Shuntian Mansion suddenly became like this in more than a year.

"Sir, it would be inappropriate to just blame Zhizhong, right?" Qi Yongtai certainly would not let these guys blame the Huguang scholars and immediately refuted it.

The Huguang scholars are now basically in a semi-alliance with the Beidi scholars. If this basin of sewage is poured on Mei Zhiye, it will definitely make the Huguang scholars dissatisfied, although Mei Zhiye can only be called a

Generally speaking, but Qi Yongtai believed that this was ultimately the problem of the governor himself. Wu Daonan was obsessed with reciting poems, painting and participating in various poetry and cultural gatherings in the capital. He basically laissez-faire on daily government affairs, and the governor was absent.

Then almost all matters overwhelmed Zhizhong, several general judges, and Tuiguan.

Shuntian Prefecture generally has three general magistrates, which is also the most important official group of Shuntian Prefecture. It is the sixth rank, two levels lower than Zhizhong, while the Zhizhong of Shuntian Prefecture is the fifth rank, which is the same level as Tongzhi of Waifu. It is also the same as Shuntian Prefecture.

The Prime Minister is the fourth rank and is on the same level as the prefect of the outer prefecture. This is also the difference between Shuntian Prefecture and Yingtian Prefecture (Jinling) and other ordinary prefectures.

"Brother Chengfeng, I'm telling the truth. Everyone has their own opinion on Mei Zhiye's level. It's time for the Beijing inspection. I believe the Ministry of Civil Affairs and the Metropolitan Procuratorate should be able to give an objective evaluation." Li Tingji

Respond with a smile.

Qi Yongtai attacked Wu Daonan fiercely, making it difficult for Ye Xianggao and Fang Congzhe to say anything, because what they said was reasonable. Similarly, Li Tingji also treated others in his own way. When the Prime Minister is absent, you will treat him.

Of course, the government must bear greater responsibilities, not to mention that the grain problem mentioned by Qi Yongtai just happened to be the most important responsibility of the government. His counterattack made Qi Yongtai a little embarrassed.

Qi Yongtai had a gloomy face and didn't speak for a while. Li Sancai saw that the situation was a little stalemate and interrupted to lighten the atmosphere: "Brother Chengfeng, the situation in Shuntian Mansion does have some problems, but I think it is caused by many reasons.

Blame it on that person..."

Qi Yongtai was even more disgusted with Li Sancai's words and shook his head: "If this is the case, I suggest that Han Xu should replace Wu Daonan, and Mei Zhiye's governance can also be changed. The land of the capital and the important place of the country cannot continue like this. If we

If you just make do with it, it will definitely cause serious trouble..."

Unexpectedly, Qi Yongtai would be so serious about this matter, which made Ye Xianggao, Fang Congzhe and even Li Tingji feel troubled.

They admitted that Wu Daonan was indeed not suitable for Shuntian Fuyin, but Shuntian Fuyin was already at the top of the third-rank officials. No matter which ministry he was, the minister was not as respected as Shuntian Fuyin, let alone officials in the Ministry of Personnel, Household Affairs and Military Affairs.

The assistant ministers also need to handle specific affairs, and this is precisely Wu Daonan's shortcomings.

The only most suitable minister of the Ministry of Rites was firmly controlled by Gu Bingqian, so it was really impossible to choose a suitable position for Wu Daonan, so he could only continue to keep Wu Daonan in the position of Shuntian Prefecture Yin for the time being.

The key issue now is to choose a capable minister who is capable in all aspects and has enthusiasm and enthusiasm to serve as Wu Daonan's assistant, Shuntian Fucheng. This can also alleviate the current situation.

"Brother Chengfeng, Huifu did not do much wrong. It is not appropriate to change people like this." Ye Xianggao finally spoke, "There is no need to mention this issue for the time being, but we can consider a suitable Fu Cheng.

The situation in Gyeonggi is relatively familiar, and it requires the ability to do things and the courage to make decisions. You can think about it. Brother Chengfeng is not unreasonable to worry. If Gyeonggi is uneasy, then the world will be unstable, so we have to think about it as soon as possible."

Seeing Ye Xianggao's insistence, Qi Yongtai knew that his idea would be difficult to realize, but Han Xu was indeed a talent, and he also had other considerations, "If this is the case, then Han Xu can be the Minister of the Ministry of War in Nanjing..."

This suggestion is very practical. Ye Xianggao nodded: "Then Sun Shenxing can be said to be the Minister of Household Affairs in Nanjing. They are both similar in age and in their prime. They can also organize Jiangnan."

Qi Yongtai glanced at Ye Xianggao and Fang Congzhe coldly, and said slowly: "Wang Yongguang can be the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel of Nanjing, and Prime Minister Sun Ding can be the Yushi of the Right Capital of the Nanjing Metropolitan Procuratorate."

Ye Xianggao couldn't help but gasped, and Fang Congzhe also frowned. Qi Yongtai's tough advice was really unacceptable, but Qi Yongtai had obviously made up his mind this time. If he continues like this

If they continue to argue like this, they are afraid that if the previously agreed plan fails, they will have to overthrow it and start over again. This is what Ye Xianggao and Fang Congzhe do not want to see.

The situation is different among the Six Ministries of Nanjing, the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and the Capital. The first is the Minister of the Ministry of War, who has the greatest real power, followed by the Minister of the Ministry of Hubu, the third is the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, the third is the Minister of the Ministry of Justice, the third is the Minister of the Ministry of Justice, and the third is the Minister of the Ministry of Rites.

They are all the most neglected, especially the Ministry of Rites.

Qi Yongtai took down both the Nanjing Civil Service Bureau and the Youdu Censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate in one fell swoop, which must have been hard for Ye Xianggao and Qi Yongtai to accept, but if they refused immediately, they would probably cause another disturbance.

Ye Xianggao pondered for a moment and then said: "Chengfeng, Wang Yongguang objected when he was appointed as the Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs of Nanjing. However, Sun Dingxiang is now the Tongzhi of Jinling (Yingtianfu Cheng), and he suddenly became the Yushi of the Youdu of the Nanjing Metropolitan Procuratorate.

I still need to think about it again to see if there is a more suitable candidate, how about?"

Qi Yongtai also knew that this should be the bottom line that the other party could accept, so he could only nod. He was the only one in the cabinet, which was still too weak. Only then did he deeply feel the uncomfortable feeling of being alone.
