Geng Scroll Chapter 207 Planning and doing things to the grassroots
Han Xu laughed, "Well, if Ziying really serves as the Prime Minister of Shuntian Prefecture, it would make sense. He is a fourth-grade official. Besides, the layout of Yongping Prefecture can be considered to be created by him.
, you should also have some say,..."
He was not familiar with Feng Ziying, but he knew that this young man could be regarded as the most outstanding person among the younger generation. Sun Chengzong and Zheng Chongjian, whom he valued most, were not only close to Feng Ziying, but also highly respected Feng Ziying. Although Chen Qiyu and Feng Ziying
There was some discord, but he could also feel that Chen Qiyu still admired the other party, but his admiration was mixed with some jealousy.
A person who can make all the three Shanxi heroes in Yonglong's fifth year respect and admire him, Han Xugao can't help but think highly of him.
Qi Yongtai suppressed the anger on his face and glanced at his colleagues around him. It would have been better if he had recommended it to him in private. However, if he proposed it publicly like this, it seemed that Qi Yongtai was a little too arrogant and indulged this disciple and did not understand etiquette.
You, Feng Ziying, have only been in office for a few days, and now you are actually thinking about recommending talents and making benevolence to others?
Exhaling a filthy breath, Qi Yongtai remained silent, but Cui Jingrong smiled in line with Han Xu: "Well, it's understandable. Only Ziying knows the situation in Yongping Mansion best. It doesn't matter if you talk about it, we people here will listen.
There’s no harm in listening.”
“Then tell me who you want to recommend?” Qi Yongtai said in a deep voice.
"If Dazhang (Zheng Chongjian) can do it, we might as well let him serve as the general magistrate of Yongping Mansion and assist in general affairs..." Feng Ziying thought for a while before saying.
It is definitely not feasible to let Zheng Chongjian serve as Tongzhi, the gap is too big, but it is reasonable to be appointed as Tongjian, who is in charge of food, taxation and general affairs.
"Dazhang?" Qiao Yingjia shook his head: "Dazhang has only been at the Ministry of War for a few days? Ziying, do you really think that this kind of extraordinary promotion can be done by just anyone? He is the deputy chief, right? Seventh grade, Yongping
Fu Tongjian is the sixth grade, and he has been promoted to two levels in a row. Although Dazhang is excellent, his achievements are far from enough. If he really wants to do this, he is afraid that he will not be able to pass the official department. Gao Panlong is not an easy person to deal with.
of,……"
Zheng Chongjian, whom Feng Ziying mentioned, was born as a top three Jinshi. Now he is the deputy director of the Military Department of the Ministry of War. He is the seventh rank. His position is indeed a bit low. But considering that he is a subordinate, it is not a bad idea to be promoted to two levels in a row. Unexpectedly, Qiao Yingjia will also be promoted.
Optimistic.
"Ziying, we know that you are on good terms with Dazhang, and Dazhang has indeed done well in the Ministry of War, but Brother Rujun also said that this kind of exceptional promotion requires solid merit and political achievements as the basis for promotion, and it is not just random.
Anyone can do it.”
Sun Juxiang shook his head. He also admired Zheng Chongjian, but he knew that this kind of exceptional promotion was not that simple.
"In the year you were in Yongping, it was considered a meritorious service to defeat the Mongols in the first battle in Qian'an, it was a meritorious service to help accept the refugees in Shuntian Prefecture, it was a half-effort to clean up the hidden houses of military households, it was to open mines, set up factories and build roads, and at the same time, it was a mining tax, business affairs, etc.
The huge increase in taxes can be regarded as half the merit, but it can be counted as three merits in total. In addition, you negotiated with the Inner Khalkha people for the imperial court and the Ministry of War to redeem people. Although the emperor and the imperial court cannot remember you for one merit, everyone is thinking about it.
Yes, either the imperial court will have to spend a large sum of money, or it will have to bear the resentment of the soldiers and people in the capital, so this can be regarded as a meritorious service. Of course, this can only be regarded in the heart and cannot be said openly. But.
Based on your previous achievements, no one can say anything bad about you when we bring it up to the court, and the officials must also approve it, so you go to Shuntian Prefecture to be promoted to two levels in a row, and no one can say anything, but
The big chapter is in the Ministry of War. Even if he is a subordinate and can be promoted to a higher level according to the usual practice, he can only be promoted from the sixth rank. How can he become a full-fledged general judge of the fifth rank?"
Feng Ziying felt that it was easy for her to be promoted. Unknowingly, the first-level soldier rushed to the fourth rank. Then it should be easy for her classmate to reach the sixth rank. However, he did not expect that after careful calculation, he even reached the sixth rank.
The quality is hard to come by, and before I know it, the gap between myself and these classmates has become so big.
In fact, the distance began to widen when I entered the Hanlin Academy as an editor. Not to mention Zheng Chongjian and others, even Yang Sichang and Huang Zunsu, who were ranked second in the rankings, were only awarded editors in the Hanlin Academy, inferior to myself, who was originally only a second-class Jinshi.
At level one, of course, if Yang Sichang and Huang Zunsu were willing to move to another place now, they would have the opportunity to move up to level one and equalize with themselves as usual, but it was obvious that neither of them was willing.
However, his first choice was not Zheng Chongjian, but someone else.
“The disciple hopes that Jun Yu (who practices state affairs) can come to Yongping to replace my colleague.” Feng Ziying said his true purpose.
"Jun Yu?!" Several people said in surprise: "How can that be done? No!"
Several people spoke in unison, and the remaining people who did not speak had dissatisfied expressions on their faces.
Lian Guoshi was the number one scholar in the fifth year of Yonglong. Now he is serving as a member of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. This is why the big bosses specially placed Lian Guoshi in the key position of the Ministry of Civil Affairs to train and train him after Feng Ziying came to power. Now Feng Ziying actually proposed
Let Lian Guoshi replace him.
"Master Qi, I know that the princes had deep intentions in placing Jun Yu in the Ministry of Personnel. In fact, I also communicated with Jun Yu when I left the capital for Yongping and agreed with this consideration. After all, the Ministry of Personnel is related to personnel affairs.
The layout also requires a level of talent training, but I still feel that if in the long run, an official with a civil service background has not worked in a local prefecture, then his experience will be incomplete and he will not be able to understand it at all.
He cannot understand the various problems and difficulties faced and experienced at the grassroots level like the prefecture and county level, and cannot understand the hardships of the common people below. He also has no way of knowing the cunning and viciousness of the evil gentry and local tyrants below, so even if he becomes an official in the future
How does a minister or doctor examine and evaluate the officials below? Just look at taxes, security, and education? Well, even if he only looks at these three things, how much can he see through the methods of the officials and subordinates below?
One? You will gain wisdom if you eat a few pits. If you don’t have the experience of working down there, I think you may not be able to gain wisdom even if you eat a few pits. This may not be a blessing for Jun Yu."
Although Feng Ziying's words were not inspiring, they were still profound. This was something he gradually realized through the battle of wits and courage with the local gentry over the past year.
Everyone here is an official who has been an official for decades. Of course they understand what Feng Ziying said, but if they understand, they can let a person who works well in the center of the official department be considered by everyone to be comparable to the next generation.
Feng Ziying went to Yongping to replace Feng Ziying in a role comparable to that of Feng Ziying. Even though he knew that Yongping really needed such a talent to stabilize the situation, he was still a little reluctant.
Qi Yongtai asked thoughtfully: "Ziying, have you discussed this with Jun Yu?"
"I said it." Feng Ziying did not hide it, "and she also said it more than once. The disciple talked about the gains and gains in Yongping Mansion. Jun Yu was still very envious of the disciple for having such an opportunity to do things according to his own ideas and intentions. He also said
I agree with many of my disciple’s ideas and views, so I will bring them up today. As for the official department, without Brother Jun Yu, there may not be much trouble, but if there is more Jun Yu in Yongping Mansion, he can assist Brother Xian Bo.
, I believe the situation will be much better."
Qi Yongtai was silent.
Feng Ziying struck while the iron was hot: "Master Qi, gentlemen, actually I have another idea, that is, I hope that our students and scholars in these subjects will not be rigid or eager to stay in the Sixth Ministry and the Duchayuan. I think that while we are young, we can
Going to Fuzhou County for training and polishing will definitely be more beneficial to everyone's growth than being in the court. After three or five years of experience in Xia Bian Fuzhou, you can deeply understand and comprehend the most pressing issues and the most difficult affairs in Xia Bianzhou County.
The most difficult troubles, after learning how to eliminate or solve these troubles and problems, return to the Sixth Ministry and the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and you will be able to understand how to combine them with reality when formulating strategies and policies."
Feng Ziying actually mentioned this suggestion two or three times in front of Qi Yongtai, either explicitly or covertly, but Qi Yongtai did not pay attention to it. He also mentioned it in front of Qiao Yingjia and Guan Yingzhen, and the situation was similar. Officials in this era only need to have the opportunity.
Everyone prefers to go to the center of the imperial court. As long as you are a Jinshi, you will feel a little regretful if you go to the provincial level, let alone prefectures and counties.
It's not that these big guys don't understand the truth, but it involves personal interests. You clearly have the opportunity to stay in the center, but you ask others to go down and tell others that you need experience. No one will think that this is a good intention, like
There are very few people like Feng Ziying who actively request to go down, which is why so many people were touched and shocked when he went down.
"This disciple has only been in Yongping Mansion for a year, and he has achieved some achievements. I don't think it would be impossible for other students and officials to come here. They can still achieve these results. Similarly, if we had previously
The achievements of Bo Fu's Gregorian disciples in Yongping are enough to serve as the basis and reason for promotion. This actually shows in disguise that being an official at the grassroots level is more promising, and there may be more opportunities for promotion, so this may be able to
Let more officials take the initiative to come down below to find things to do."
These words made everyone a little excited, especially Qi Yongtai and Qiao Yingjia. One of them was a minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, and the other had been serving in the Metropolitan Procuratorate for a long time. Both of them were directly in charge of the Beijing Procuratorate and the big plans of officials. It was very difficult for them to
Understand the mentality of officials at all levels.
If we follow this model, it will undoubtedly greatly encourage officials to seek jobs and work at lower levels. Now that Feng Ziying has made a start, if Lian Guoshi follows suit, it will undoubtedly be a gesture and can play a very good leading role.
The two exchanged glances and nodded slowly: "This matter has been discussed in advance and needs to be discussed carefully. However, Ziying, there is no need to discuss your return to Shuntian Mansion. There will be a result after the year."
