It’s February in Beijing, and it’s a beautiful spring day again.

Faced with the reviving countryside scenery, many young men and women are going out of the city for an outing. No matter how turbulent the world is, no matter what the actual situation is in various places, the capital always maintains a prosperous atmosphere.

However, the officialdom in the capital was never at peace. As the inspection process in Beijing began, various forces began to attack the enemy forces through the officials they controlled.

In the last Beijing inspection in Bingchen, the cabinet minister Li Ben, who was also the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, presided over the inspection, which could be said to be the most vivid expression of eliminating dissidents. The officials eliminated by the inspection in that time, except for some weak and old diseases, were all

They are all officials who refuse to rely on the strict Party.

The most surprising thing is that the Yanguan who had always been "accompanying" in Beijing inspections was also violently purged by Li Ben. A total of 38 people were punished for the two Beijing Kedao Yanguan, and all of them were demoted.

It’s no wonder that many officials hate the Yan family and his sons so much. Although they have low official positions, they have a transcendent status, but they don’t want to suffer a major purge by the Yan Party.

Although the Jingchao has long been reduced to a tool to eliminate dissidents, its blatant use was still relatively rare in the Ming Dynasty.

It's just that Bingchen Jingcha has revealed the true nature of Jingcha. Everyone knows the nature of this Jingcha, so they all regroup and choose the boss who can protect them.

Now that Xu Jie is in power, Guo Pu, the Minister of Civil Affairs, is vaguely like Li Mo in the past. But unlike in the past, the two powerful ministers did not crush each other, but seemed to coexist in a friendly manner.

Since the two largest forces have no intention of fighting, the Yan Party is naturally the target of attack. However, middle and low-level officials have always been just like grasshoppers. They have already moved closer to these two major forces, and few people still slander them.

The strict party is waiting to be liquidated.

Therefore, the two forces of Xu Jie and Guo Pu naturally pointed their finger at those outside the two parties, and the die-hards of the Yan Party were naturally the first to bear the brunt, while other personnel were not yet known.

The Beijing Inspectorate is similar to the Foreign Inspectorate. The Ministry of Civil Affairs first rates the officials in the two capitals, and then the internal ministers decide whether to retain the specific officials.

It is worth mentioning that officials at lower levels usually use expressions such as: old and sick, greedy, weak, careless, impetuous, incompetent, etc., which makes it difficult for many officials to evaluate themselves.

Application.

Before the imperial campaign officially began, some officials had already chosen to surrender. Among them, Ge Jin, the left minister of the Ministry of War, attracted the most attention.

Ge Jin, the left minister of the Ministry of War, chose Shangshu to resign. Although he had some friendship with Guo Pu, he was able to climb from a top three Jinshi to the position of the left minister of the Ministry of War, so it was naturally impossible for him to follow the path of the strict party.

Ge Jin was a descendant of Ge Shan, King of Changyi, Shandong Province. He was ranked among the top three Jinshi, and his career was inconspicuous in the early stages. He was an official with military talents just like Hu Zongxian. During his tenure as the governor of Xuantai, he repeatedly made outstanding achievements and returned to the court to serve as the Ministry of War.

Zuo Shilang was given a red and gold woven fish suit by Luo Fei, and was promoted to the second level of salary. By special decree, he was given a second-level salary and promoted to senior official.

If Yan Dang had been in power, he would probably have replaced him with Yang Bo, Minister of War. Unfortunately, he made the mistake of standing in the ranks of Yan Dang, but it was inevitable that he would be involved.

Perhaps because he saw what happened to Hu Zongxian, or perhaps knew that he would never pass the Beijing inspection, he chose to take the initiative to submit his resignation to the court in exchange for a more honorable end.

Being dismissed from the imperial court or voluntarily resigning, the latter will undoubtedly allow the official to return home in a more dignified manner. This is also the reason why many officials submitted petitions for resignation after the coming of the imperial police.

He submitted his resignation, but did not receive any support from the court to retain him. The cabinet soon agreed to the resignation of Ge Jin, the left minister of the Ministry of War.

This is what party struggle is like. It has nothing to do with one's ability, nor does it matter with one's moral character. Once you are in the wrong team, you are destined to be kicked out of the court.

Shuntian government office, sign a mortgage room.

Although Lin Haoran was an official in the capital and was the manager of the city, he, the governor of Shuntian, was not classified as a capital official. In this capital inspection, he actually had nothing to do with him.

Regardless of the turmoil in the court, he, the Shuntian Prefect, has been sitting in the Shuntian Prefecture in the north of the city, fulfilling his duties as the Shuntian Prefect and conscientiously managing the largest city in the world.

Whether he is the prefect of Leizhou or the prefect of Guangzhou, this proves that Lin Haoran is a good official who is smart and willing to do practical things for the people. After becoming the prefect of Shuntian, Lin Haoran still did not change this.

From initially presiding over unjust cases and solving public security problems for the people, to applying to the court to cancel the additional payment of silver, and then to holding a lantern festival that can promote the development of the capital's industry and commerce, these have brought about substantial changes in the face of the capital.

The city of Beijing seems to have deliberately avoided the threat of the sea, or the need to go to the sea. Except for an official road extending towards Tianjin in the southeast, there is no official road to the east.

After Lin Haoran learned that people in the east were suffering from traffic problems, he also began to put the road construction plan on the agenda, intending to improve the traffic situation in the east of Beijing.

Just building roads naturally requires silver. Although free road construction workers can be found by collecting corvees, money is needed for materials and food, which is undoubtedly a problem.

Lin Haoran, however, imagined that there were always more solutions than difficulties, so he published the road construction plan in the "Sunchon Ilbo" and then conducted a fundraising campaign for the wealthy households in the entire city of Beijing.

This is not a new initiative. At least Taizu took Shen Wansan together to build the city of Nanjing back then. However, this kind of fundraising was for face the first time and was often ignored the second time.

Who is Lin Haoran? Naturally, he knows this clearly. But when he published the list of sponsors in the "Sunchon Ilbo" and when he handed over the command power of this section of the road to the person with the highest funding, everything became

It’s different.

In this era, what is most valuable?

For many people, it is no longer a thing of gold and silver, but a good and admirable reputation.

For example, some women choose not to remarry for many years or commit suicide in order to obtain a chastity memorial. What does that mean to those rich men who often spend huge sums of money in brothels?

"The great virtuous countryman!"

In the crowd of several people, Lin Haoran, who was wearing a third-grade official uniform, rolled up his sleeves and held an enlarged version of the Langhao pen. He dipped it in well-made ink and wrote these four big characters on the rice paper.
