Chapter 2024 Gui Zi Scroll The person who takes over has a beginning and an end
After counting the promotions of the three officials he was interested in, two were basically finalized and one still had hope. Feng Ziying was proud of herself.
If you give yourself more time and can find or win over more officials who can be used by you, the situation will be much better.
Especially for several of my classmates, He Fengsheng, Wu Di, and Fan Jingwen, who were born in Jinshi and were promoted from court officials to local officials. As long as the three-year assessment period is over, based on the standards of the three of them and my strong recommendation, it will be easy to get promoted to a higher level.
If you have outstanding performance or catch a good opportunity, it is not impossible to upgrade to two levels.
However, the position of commanding the Dongcheng Army and Horse Division is very important. If possible, Feng Ziying still hopes to finalize it, but Zhang Jingqiu still needs to work hard.
There is no need for Concubine Quan to say hello, but to let Zhang Jingqiu know that he and Concubine Quan have some kind of interactive connection. Zhang Jingqiu will be able to hear the music and understand the elegant meaning, and this matter can be done.
Something could be done about this, Feng Ziying thought, perhaps asking Zhou's uncle and nephew to give Zhang Jingqiu a hint and reminder.
After coming out of the mansion, Feng Ziying went straight to the Yamen.
The person who came to take over as the Prime Minister of his mansion was fellow countryman Wang Qia.
Wang Qia was a native of Linyi. He was a Jinshi scholar in the 27th year of Yuanxi Dynasty, so he was considered a native of Linyi.
Previously, Wang Qia was the Councilor Si Zuo, the political envoy of Henan Chengxuan. This time he was transferred to Beijing to serve as the Prime Minister of Shuntian Prefecture, which can be regarded as a high promotion.
"Brother Hanzhong, I'm late." As soon as he entered the door, he saw a tall man with a beard standing in front of the hall with his hands behind his back. Feng Ziying hurriedly greeted him.
"Haha, Ziying doesn't need to be so polite. Brother Yu is not an old-fashioned person. You are leaving Beijing soon. You have a house with three bedrooms. You need to settle down well. Don't be in a hurry. Don't be in a hurry." The bearded man said happily.
Peaceful and authentic.
The bearded man was Wang Qia, whose courtesy name was Hanzhong. He was a Jinshi scholar and went to work in Henan after finishing his political studies.
Starting from the county magistrate, he worked step by step. He served as a county magistrate for six years and then as a co-magistrate for six years. In the middle, there was a complaint for investigation. Because of his tough and upright character, he offended the local gentry.
Fortunately, after the Metropolitan Procuratorate found out, it did not affect his career.
However, because I have been in the local area for a long time, my promotion speed is naturally not as smooth as in Beijing.
After more than ten years of local ups and downs, Wang Qia was particularly excited to finally be able to work in Beijing. However, he also knew that the water in Shuntian Prefecture was not easy to navigate. Because he was originally so bold and stubborn, he could not come to Beijing.
Much more cautious.
Wang Qia was not familiar with his predecessor and fellow countryman, because he had been working in Henan and did not know much about the situation in Beijing. However, he was able to come to Beijing this time, in addition to the strong recommendation of his mentor Wang Yongguang, and in the Senate position.
Han Xu admired his outstanding performance, so he also gave him a strong recommendation.
On the contrary, Feng Ziying, a real fellow countryman, although he had not known much about Wang Qia before, was familiar with Wang Qia, because Geng Ruqi had written to him before, introducing Wang Qia's situation, and also mentioned that Wang Qia hated evil and had a strong temper.
He is hard-working and very familiar with the criminal matters, so he is very suitable to take over the position of Shuntian Fu Cheng.
Moreover, Geng Ruqi also sent a letter to Wang Qia, specifically talking about Feng Ziying's situation, which allowed Wang Qia to know more about Feng Ziying.
Wang Qia came to meet Feng Ziying on the day he came to Beijing. With this relationship, the two naturally became familiar with each other. After a few days, they could even joke around.
"Hey, I also want to stay a few more days, but time waits for no one. Once the court officially announces the decision, I will have to leave. You can't be reluctant to leave just because you have a lovely wife at home." After getting familiar with Wang Qia,
Feng Ziying spoke casually, "It's a pity that I still have a beloved concubine who is pregnant with Liujia, but I have to go to Shaanxi. How miserable it is."
Wang Qia laughed loudly, "Ziying, you are so blessed that you don't know how blessed you are. Countless people want to sit in your position but can't, but now you are being pretentious here. This capital city is impregnable, and your beloved concubine is in the capital."
Isn't it safer to have a child in Zhong'an than to take you to Shaanxi?" Wang Qia Xiaodu.
Feng Ziying nodded slightly, "It seems that you are also a little worried about me going to Shaanxi?"
Wang Qia pondered for a moment and shook his head, "Ziying, I don't want to say those vain words. The situation in Shaanxi is indeed very bad now. You also know that although I am a counselor in Henan, I have stationed troops in Henan Prefecture.
, the station is in Luoyang,..."
Feng Ziying raised her eyebrows and asked, "Is the situation in Laxiang not good?"
The Great Zhou Dynasty followed the previous Ming Dynasty, and the deputy envoys and ministers of the Provincial Envoy Department were basically assigned to guard the road, patrol the road, supervise the grain road, and military preparation road according to the situation and the seniority of the officials.
Officials of the same category sometimes hold two positions directly. For example, Wang Qia was appointed as the counselor of the Provincial Envoy Department and held the posts of Guarding and Military Betting. This is because Wang Qia had more seniority, so he held two posts.
If it's shallower, stick to the defense path or the military preparation path.
Nexiang is the westernmost county in Henan Prefecture. It belongs to the west of Lingbao now. It is adjacent to Tongguanwei and the Yellow River to the north. It goes out from Tongguanwei to the east and directly faces Nexiang. To the east are Lingbao and Hongnongwei.
"Not only is it bad, although the drought in Henan is not as severe as in Shaanxi, it is still a disaster-stricken place. The key is that the township directly faces Tongguan, and the victims of Shaanxi are flowing eastward, while the Tongguan guards turn a blind eye and a large number of refugees leave the customs.
Therefore, Henan Prefecture is also under pressure. I send people to Luoyang every day to collect information on the situation in Langxiang, Lingbao, Lushi, and Shaanzhou. If the situation of the refugees changes slightly, I will ask the Hongnong Guards to forcibly disperse them.
, let these refugees evacuate to Mianchi, Yiyang and Luoyang, just to prevent them from gathering in force and even bringing together dissatisfied people in Henan Prefecture..."
Wang Qia seemed to still have lingering fears, "Fortunately, I was strictly investigating the White Lotus Sect here in Henan Prefecture. From the year before last to last year, I arrested seventeen leaders of the White Lotus Sect, reported them all to the Ministry of Punishment, beheaded five people, and exiled twelve people in Guizhou
, the situation has been stabilized, but the only regret is that we were unable to dig out the context behind them. I am worried that as long as we relax a little, these White Lotus cult bandits will reappear, and it will be difficult to eradicate them."
Feng Ziying did not expect to meet a like-minded person in dealing with the issue of the White Lotus Sect. Wang Qia did not mention this situation a few days ago. Now that he heard it, Feng Ziying was also very happy.
Especially since he had been worried that if he left, the situation in the White Lotus Sect in Shuntian Prefecture might get out of control. Now that Wang Qia, who has the same views as his and even has more rigid and violent methods, has come, it is simply the right time for the person to make the best use of his talents.
"I didn't expect Brother Hanzhong to have such tricks in Luoyang, so I'm relieved." Feng Ziying said with a smile on her face, "What I was most worried about before were two things. One was the branches of the White Lotus Sect in Shuntian Mansion.
The connection is very complicated. The government and the Ministry of Justice have worked together to find out a few lines, but they still feel that the context of Beidi is not clear, and there are several White Lotus Sects in Beizhi.
They are all very rampant and have close contacts with Shuntian Prefecture and even the White Lotus Sect in Shandong, and the same is true in Shanxi..."
Wang Qia also didn't expect that the White Lotus Sect in the capital was so rampant. He frowned and asked, "Is there a White Lotus Sect in the capital city too?"
"Yes, but the behavior of the White Lotus Sect in the city is secretive. Most of their activities are outside the city, and most of their contact points are in the city. The government and the Ministry of Punishment have also tracked and verified their clues, and they have both Shanxi and Yongping Prefectures.
The relationship,..." Feng Ziying nodded, "To eradicate the White Lotus Sect, it will not be achieved overnight. Brother Hanzhong, you have become a proficient person since you came here, and you can get started as soon as possible. In addition, the current promotion officer Song Xian is also very concerned about the situation of the White Lotus Sect.
You two are familiar with each other, then you two can have a good meeting."
"I have noted this matter. One of my staff members is also very familiar with the White Lotus Sect, and it seems that it will come in handy again." Wang Qia nodded, "Aside from the White Lotus Sect, what else worries Ziying?
"
"Brother Hanzhong, you have to worry about it just like you are here. However, since Mr. Li is here to serve as governor, he should be in charge of this matter. It is a matter of logistical support for the two armies going south to regain Shandong. The summer grain has not yet been harvested.
However, Shuntian Prefecture also had a poor harvest this year, but I have asked some prefectures and counties to plant some potatoes and sweet potatoes. It is expected that there will be a small bumper harvest in some places where the drought is not too serious. These can also be used for military logistics support, so that we can
Make some room, otherwise Shuntian Mansion will not be able to complete the tasks assigned by the court this year."
Feng Ziying briefly introduced the cultivation of potatoes and sweet potatoes, and then Wang Qia realized that Feng Ziying, the prime minister, actually had to take care of grain planting and water conservancy, which should have been done by Tongpan.
This is somewhat beyond the scope of authority, but before, whether it was Wu Daonan or no one, the governor had to fulfill his duties, and Feng Ziying naturally had no shirk, so he didn't care so much, but for Wang Qia, such things were just
It shouldn't be for him, the prime minister of the government, to take charge. If there is governance and general judgment, he shouldn't interfere.
Seeing Wang Qia's expression, Feng Ziying knew that the other party was disapproving, but he had to remind the other party that this was also related to the northwest army's food security.
"Ziying, this shouldn't be my business." Wang Qia flatly refused.
"Brother Hanzhong, the Prime Minister of Shuntian Prefecture is different from his colleagues in other prefectures. Since it is the most benign place in the capital, it has special features. If he does something out of the ordinary, he will do it. It is said that Mr. Zou is the one who does it. But
Mr. Zou is a scholar and a fair person, but can he handle the general affairs of Shuntian Mansion?" Feng Ziying asked in return.
After much selection, Zou Yuanbiao was selected as the governor of Shuntian, which made Feng Ziying speechless. However, Zou Yuanbiao was a model for Jiangyou scholars, with a loyal and upright character, and high attainments in classics, meanings, poetry, and poems. He was just an ordinary person as the governor of Shuntian.
It was an ordinary appointment, but Feng Ziying didn't think Mr. Zou could do a good job.
