The Scroll of the Self, Chapter 73: Temptation

   Zhu Zhiren expected Feng Ziying’s solo visit.

As his deputy, if he cannot get his support, it will be much more difficult for him to do this than the two assistant officials, Tongjian and Tuiguan.

 Because according to the regulations of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Tongjian was in charge of grain transportation, horse administration, and water conservancy.

For a border area like Yongping Prefecture, not to mention grain transportation, rice, wheat, silk, horse and grass shipped from Liaodong every year must be sent to Liaodong every year. This is the most important event of Yongping Prefecture every year.

, it can be said that if this matter is not done well, then everyone from the prefect to the general judge may be directly dismissed from office. If the opportunity is delayed, it is even possible to be imprisoned.

Because of the importance of the work of general magistrates, the responsibilities of each government under the rule of the Great Zhou Dynasty were clear and unmistakable, that is, land tax, well, that is, from the time of recovery to the year when it is transported to the province, whether it is sent to the capital, or to the capital, it is

Regardless of the side, this is the best in the world.

Therefore, even the prefect will not easily interfere with the work of the general judge unless the general judge has obvious dereliction of duty.

As for horse administration, it may not be that important in the south, but it is indispensable for border governments like Yongping. Although the situation of raising horses varies from place to place, the horses raised may not become war horses in the army.

However, camels and horses were indispensable as logistical supplies.

Not to mention water conservancy, it is directly related to the annual land tax and is also of vital importance.

 Because of the special nature of the general judge, the prefect of a prefecture often relies heavily on the general judge. If the general judge is not effective, the prefect often has to spend several times the energy to handle these matters personally.

 The situation of official promotion is similar, but of course it cannot be compared with general judge in terms of status and importance.

As a prefectural magistrate, the main responsibility is to review the lawsuit and provide opinions, and to provide the basis for the judgment of the prefect in the upper court.

This matter is not unimportant. Among Gein's main responsibilities as a prefect, other matters can be entrusted to the deputy assistant officials such as Tongzhi, Tongjian and Tuiguan, but litigation and trial cannot be left to others.

  That is to say, Tongzhi can replace the prefect in handling any affairs under certain circumstances, but not only in litigation and trial.

Of course, this is only a stipulation in the Dazhou regulations, and this is not the case in actual practice. Many magistrates are entrusted by the magistrate to conduct trials. Of course, in most cases, litigation decision-making is still the most important job of the magistrate, and it will not be easily false.

Manpower, this also shows the importance of the affairs that the recommendation officer has to handle and the special status.

The responsibilities of general magistrates and magistrates are quite clear, and even the prefect cannot change them at will. In other words, a person has a clear job. If he does not do it well, he will not be exempted from responsibility, but the prefect will still have to take the blame.

 But Tongzhi is different.

As the second-ranking official next to the prefect, Tongzhi’s clearest duty is to assist the prefect in handling affairs of all sizes within the prefecture. In other words, you can handle all matters, but only if the prefect lets you handle them and does not let you ask questions.

Just stay where it's cool.

Of course, there is another responsibilities attached to the same duty, that is, the Qing army.

 What is the Qing army? The full name is to clean up the military craftsmen, which probably means the management of military affairs related to the garrison.

However, this is an important border area, and the Wei Town Camp Army is directly under the jurisdiction of the Ji Town General Army. The Yongping Six Guards that were once famous in the Ming Dynasty have long since become a thing of the past.

For example, Funing Guards, Shanhai Guards and Kaiping Zhongtun Guards are directly under the jurisdiction of the General Army of Ji Town, and the local government has no right to intervene.

The Lulong Guard and Dongsheng Zuowei, which were first established in Lulong County, were merged with the original Yongping Guard to form the new Yongping Guard in the pre-Ming Dynasty, and the Great Zhou Dynasty followed this system.

However, after the Chahar people invaded the border area in the 23rd year of Yuanxi, the Ministry of War was deeply aware of the weakness of the first and second lines of Yongping Prefecture, especially the second line of defense. In order to strengthen the Funing Guard and Jianchang Camp, Yanhe Camp, Taitou Camp, and Shimen

Due to the strength of the camp, Yongping Guard was dismembered alive. Most of the forces were merged into Funing Guard, and the rest were split up and merged into Jianchang Camp, Yanhe Camp, Taitou Camp and Shimen Camp. This made the governor of the prefecture

There are actually no guards left in Lulong County.

It can be said that Lulong County is like a naked girl standing on the land of Yandong surrounded by gangs of prisoners. How can you say that this kind of feeling and taste of being attacked by a sword at any time without the ability to resist can make her

Are the prefecture and county levels of Yongping Prefecture and the local gentry satisfied with the Ministry of War and Jizhen?

It's just that the arm can't twist the thigh, and no matter how dissatisfied it is, Yongping Mansion will have nothing to do with the Ministry of War and Ji Zhen, and Ji Zhen is also well aware of Yongping Mansion's dissatisfaction, and the discordant relationship between the two parties is getting worse.

This has led to the current deadlock.

Therefore, Feng Ziying knew very well that she wanted to win support from Zhu Zhiren, and that she wanted to impress her colleagues and subordinates such as the general judge, the promotion officer, and even the experience department, the Zhaomo Institute and the prison department, who were now unpredictable, even if it was a person who looked at her from other places.

It sounds more like a useless job in the Qing army, but in Yongping Mansion it is the key to the political leadership and people, so he must do it well and do it beautifully.

"Shibo, my nephew is here for the first time and knows nothing about the situation in our house. I still need to ask Shibo for guidance on many things..." Feng Ziying presented the gift with a smile on her face, "The official teacher has taught students many times, and also

Speaking of Zhiren Gong’s perseverance, Chai Gong also said that Zhiren Gong was dedicated to the public, meticulous and meticulous,... and can be regarded as a model for the children of Huguang.”

  The previous visit was a public visit, but this time it was a private visit.

Both Guan Yingzhen and Chai Ke should have written to each other. Although they both belonged to the Huguang scholars, the Mei family, which had also made enemies with them, was also the backbone of the Huguang scholars. Before Feng Ziying left, Mei Zhiye took up the post.

Shuntian Prefecture ruled the country, and Mei Zhihuan served as the Chief Envoy of Jiangxi Province, Siyou Councilor.

Zhu Zhiren stroked his beard and smiled, but felt extremely comfortable.

In terms of age, both Guan Yingzhen and Chai Ke were much younger than themselves, but they passed the Jinshi examination too late, almost at the same time as Guan Yingzhen and Chai Ke, and their official careers were much more bumpy, while these two were in a high position.

The right minister of the Ministry of Revenue is also in charge of the secretarial affairs department, and the left minister of the Ministry of War has a strong say in military affairs.

The key point is that it is said that the imperial court intends to establish the Ministry of Commerce, and Guan Yingzhen may directly take over as the Minister of Commerce. This is undoubtedly a huge good news for the scholars in Huguang.

You must know that Xiangyang Zheng Jizhi, who is a leader among Huguang scholars, is already over seventy years old. Although his physical condition is not bad, he is too old after all. It is very likely that he will become an official in one or two years, and among the five cabinet members, he is from Huguang.

There were no scholars, which made the scholars in Huguang, especially Zhu Zhiren, very anxious.

Once Zheng Jizhi becomes an official, not only will there not be a Huguang scholar among the cabinet ministers, there will not even be a Huguang scholar in the six ministers. This is what Huguang scholars are most nervous and concerned about.

Zhu Zhiren’s closest relationship was Zheng Jizhi, the Secretary of the Ministry of Household Affairs. He was able to secure his position as the prefect of Yongping Prefecture under extremely unfavorable circumstances because Zheng Jizhi repeatedly helped him soften his cheeks in court.

His relationship with Guan Yingzhen can only be said to be good, and his relationship with Chai Ke is even more average. As he is much older than the two of them, Zhu Zhiren cannot be like some people who deliberately make friends with each other regardless of their appearance.

Guan Yingzhen and Chai Keyou increasingly became the leaders of Huguang scholars who succeeded Zheng Jizhi, but they themselves failed to have a closer relationship with each other. Zhu Zhiren has always been a little entangled.

This time, Guan Yingzhen and Chai Ke, especially Chai Ke, took the initiative to write to him, which also gave him a great face. You must know that he and Chai Ke had no personal correspondence before, and this was the first time that Chai Ke took the initiative to write to him.

. :(/

Everyone strives to take a breath of Buddha and receive a stick of incense. Zhu Zhiren knew that because of his age, he was not very valued by officials from Huguang in the DPRK. This could be seen from the previous attitudes towards him by officials Yingzhen and Chai Ke.

 But this time the two of them wrote letters specifically for this son, which shows how much they value him.

Zhu Zhiren also believed that Guan Yingzhen and Chai Ke were not under the control of Qi Yongtai and Qiao Yingjia, especially Chai Ke. This also shows that this son was not only praised as a genius among the scholars in the North, but also received

The optimism of the scholars in Huguang was what Zhu Zhiren was most curious about. He wanted to see what different changes this son could bring to him.

“Ziying, Dongxian and Zishu can only listen to what they say, they are just old and old...” Zhu Zhiren laughed and waved his hands.

"Why did Mr. Zhiren say this? Mr. Boxiao is seventy-five years old, and the emperor still relies on him very much. I'm afraid Mr. Zhiren is less than sixty, right? My nephew heard that Mr. Zhiren was only one year old last year. Mr. Zhiren is very old and ambitious.

Only when you are thousands of miles away..."

Although he knew that the other party was flattering him, Zhu Zhiren still felt comfortable listening to it. Zheng Jizhi was seventy-five years old, but it would still take one or two years before he could become an official. In other words, he would have to be seventy-seven or eighty-year-old before he could become an official, and he was only five years old.

Eighteen, I dare not say that I am on par with Zheng Jizhi, but with my own physical condition, I have been working for ten years, right?

Zhu Zhiren is still very confident in his physical condition. In addition, the other party mentioned that his youngest son is only one year old. Well, it seems that it is not an exaggeration to use this old age to strengthen himself.

 No wonder Guan Yingzhen and Chai Ke both thought so highly of him. His worldly manners and conversation were unlike those arrogant and strong-blooded young scholars. Zhu Zhiren had a higher opinion of the other person.

However, none of this can make Zhu Zhiren look at this son with admiration. If he wants to gain a foothold in Yongping Mansion, it is far from enough to rely on personal connections and some words.

Having network resources, you must also have the ability to turn these network resources into real political achievements. You must come up with something that convinces the whole government. Only then can you stand firm and convince others.

"Haha, there is no need to say these words of Ziying..." Zhu Zhiren's smile faded, "Both Dongxian and Zishu have sent letters to Lao Chan. If nothing else is said, Lao Chan will definitely support you Ziying. However, Lao Chan

I also want to ask, what are Ziying’s plans for coming to Yongping?"
