Chapter three hundred and eighty six weird one government and two bureaus
Chapter 386 The weird one government and two departments
Ding Yunshi became furious and shocked the whole hall. Everyone did not know why Lord Yunshi, who was low-key and calm by nature, lost his composure.
Just because the edict that Li You handed him to read clearly stated: "Such an accurate report means that the Jiangdu County local government will take charge of the private donations, and the Salt Transportation Department will co-organize it. The two yamen must be of the same mind. Those who are most capable in civil and commercial affairs will be accurate.
It is enough for Jiangdu County to give the notice first and then sign the memorial."
Mr. Li, the main hall of Jiangdu County, explained sincerely: "On the 13th of this month, I proposed to the court that you and I should work together to handle the matter. I didn't expect that the court would approve it so quickly..."
Ding Yunshi finally realized that he had fallen into Li You's trap from the beginning! He also asked the court to preside over the donation, but it was only on the 15th of this month after hearing the news. Compared with Li You,
Li You was two days late. Although he was the first to report to the news after hearing the news and thought he was very fast, it was still too late if he was later than Li You.
One step too late, one step too late, and the results are hugely different! Now it seems that Li You must have done it on purpose when he released the news on the 14th and 5th of this month!
On the ninth day of November in the eighth year of Jinghe, the imperial envoy Zhu Fanghe arrived in Yangzhou City.
On November 11th, the eighth year of Jinghe's reign, Li You went to the imperial court to resign and asked Qu to resign.
On November 11, the eighth year of Jinghe's reign, Ding Yun envoy went to Shu again to impeach Li You.
On November 13, the eighth year of Jinghe's reign, Li You went to court and said that many merchants and merchants in Yangzhou City, such as the Gang Shang Jin family, were eager to make donations and repay the effort. He petitioned the Jiangdu County local government to take charge of this matter, and the Salt Transportation Department was the assistant manager.
We also petitioned the people and businessmen to give Jiangdu County the right to deal with the situation at an advantageous rate.
On November 15, the eighth year of Jinghe's reign, Ding Yun sent an envoy to Shu, saying that many merchants and merchants in Yangzhou City were eager to donate and repay the effort. He asked the Salt Transportation Department to take charge of the matter, and there was no need for local intervention.
On November 22, the eighth year of Jinghe's reign, Li You asked the host to send donations to Beijing.
On November 23, the eighth year of Jinghe's reign, there was a court meeting in Wuying Palace to discuss Li You's affairs, and Mr. Peng Ge sadly reduced his power.
On November 24, the eighth year of Jinghe's reign, the two edicts were delivered to Jiangdu County on a 600-mile rush.
On November 25, the eighth year of Jinghe's reign, Ding Yun's envoy asked the presiding officer to donate and transport the memorial to the capital. However, the plan was already finished and was shelved in a high cabinet.
Late at night on November 27, the eighth year of Jinghe's reign, the urgent edict arrived in Jiangdu County, and Li You read it.
On November 28, the eighth year of Jinghe's reign, the urgent edict was sent to Pingshan Hall again for publication...
Since getting the third grade, he has almost disappeared. Today is the first time that the new political councilor Luo Xingye has made his public appearance. When he saw the edict, he suddenly realized it, and the doubts that had been lingering for more than ten days were swept away.
Li You must have known early on that apart from his father-in-law Jin Wanwan, it was impossible to raise money from salt merchants. So he took advantage of getting the news earlier and secretly asked for permission, and then released the news to show off.
, and even did not hesitate to be despised and ridiculed by the salt merchants to induce Ding Yunshi, who was obsessed with comparison, to also summon the salt merchants to raise money.
Until now, when the edict conferring power was received, and the Salt Transportation Department had basically raised the money, Li You jumped out to pick peaches at the right time! This was both borrowing chickens to lay eggs and borrowing flowers to offer to Buddha, which could deceive Ding Yun, who was full of plans.
It was so painful, no wonder he couldn't restrain himself from getting angry while holding the edict.
Just a moment ago, Li You had not forgotten to plot against the salt merchants, and used a trick to coax the six major merchants into signing a document. Even if he wanted to go back on his words, he would not be able to do so! If he dared to go back on his words, he would probably be charged with deceiving the emperor by Li You. Moreover, Luo You would not go back on his words.
Your Excellency, I am sure that Li You deliberately arranged for Pupubing to deliver the edict here at this time.
But what still puzzles Mr. Luo is, isn't the trend of the court trying to suppress Li You? Why was he given such authority?
So Mr. Luo turned his attention to another edict in the hands of Emperor Zhu, and the answer to the mystery was probably in it.
With a "bang" sound, Ding Yunshi threw another teacup. Several of his subordinate officers were frightened. They had never seen the chief officer, Mr. Ding, lose control like this before, fearing that they would suffer disaster.
Can you not kill Ding Yunshi out of anger! In this way, no matter how much money the Salt Transport Division collects to offer to the emperor, they will all be helping the enemy Li You!
Even the affairs of the imperial court were handed over to Jiangdu County as a matter of course! The salt merchants donated money, and to a large extent, what they wanted was the appearance. Who doesn’t want the royal memorial arch and the royal plaque? Now the imperial banner has great power.
In the hands of Li You!
Ding Yunshi was angry and didn't mention it. He only said that the documents signed by the six major salt merchants were still on the table in front of Master Ding. Li You thought for a while and quickly approached at the risk of being beaten by Ding Yunshi.
Pick up the paperwork and put it away carefully.
He solemnly said to the official He: "You will deliver the silver to the Salt Transportation Department or the county government as soon as possible. After the official has checked and checked it, it will be allowed to be shipped. The imperial court will leave your orders to the official.
, it will be available soon.”
He Yunzi's anger at Li You disrupting the grand gathering had long since disappeared. Compared with Ding Yunshi, his grievances were nothing to mention.
But what did the court think? While he was at a loss, He Yuanwai heard Mr. Li's very self-instructed instructions. He was dizzy and didn't know whether to agree or not. He stared at the edict a few more times, gritted his teeth and said
: "Don't worry, sir. It will be ready and delivered to the transportation warehouse in a few days."
"Hahahaha!" Li You laughed, "I have a message for you: Those who understand current affairs are heroes!"
The imperial envoy Zhu Fanghe checked the edict issued to him, only to find that there were several edicts in it, each one corresponding to one thing, and they were handed over to him for announcement.
When he raised his head again, he took in everyone's expressions with insight. After thinking about it, he decided to make an exception and read it here. He coughed heavily and said loudly: "Declaration! Li You accepts the decree!"
Li You stepped forward to listen to the order. This was the imperial court's renewed reward after he resigned.
The general idea of the imperial edict is almost the same as last time, with only a few words of comfort added. It is estimated that the various rewards and promotions are about the same. Those rewards were carefully studied by the court word for word, and any more or less would not be appropriate.
But when I heard it, there seemed to be an extra sentence. Zhu Qinqian read: "Li You, the general magistrate of Yangzhou Prefecture, was given the title of co-president of Yangzhou Prefecture, and he was also responsible for the affairs of Yangzhou Prefecture. His original duties remain unchanged..."
Unprepared, Li You suddenly woke up and was in charge of the affairs of the Yangzhou Prefecture. Last time, the man surnamed Luo was in charge of the affairs of the Yangzhou Prefecture with the title of political candidate, but this time he was in charge of the affairs of the Yangzhou Prefecture with the title of fellow intellectual?
It's not surprising anymore when he thinks about it. This is probably the compensation given to him by the imperial court. Last time, the imperial court promoted Luo Zhifu in a confused way, which made the hero lose face, so this time he gave him an official position who was also in charge of Yangzhou Prefecture to appease him.
This is a great thing. Today is truly a double blessing! Mr. Li is so happy.
When the officials of various government offices in the lobby heard this seemingly strange appointment, they couldn't help but whisper to each other. After Mr. Li returned, the first thing he probably did was to take off the plaque saying "Jiangdu County Office" and replace it with "Jiangdu County Office"
Yangzhou Prefecture Tongzhi Branch".
There are both agency officials and co-administrators of government affairs. The result is one government and two agencies, which is very lively now. I heard that there was an anecdote about one county and two agencies in the country, but one government and two agencies are really unheard of. But Yangzhou
The situation in this one government and two departments is slightly better, the division of powers and responsibilities is still very clear, and they are not competing with each other.
Mr. Li's original job was to act as an agent for Jiangdu County and also be in charge of the government's defense department. Now he is in charge of the same government affairs, to act as an agent for Jiangdu county and also be in charge of the government's defense department. From the literal meaning, it is easy to understand the meaning of the imperial court -
From now on, Mr. Li will continue to act as the garrison department of Jiangdu County and the Prefecture, but with the status of a prefect who is also in charge of government affairs, he can handle Jiangdu County affairs on behalf of the government in terms of government affairs, without having to report to the prefect for instructions.
In other words, Mr. Li himself has political power on an equal footing with the prefect. His superior may be the patrol, the governor's yamen, or the Six Ministries of Nanjing, but the prefect or the acting official are no longer his superiors, because
He is a member of the same department.
Therefore, Jiangdu County, which was under the rule of the magistrate's office, no longer had to obey the prefectural government and the magistrate, and had the same status as the prefectural government.
In other words, Mr. Li can take charge of the affairs of Jiangdu County and the Garrison Department in the name of the Tongzhi Office, and the prefect has no control at all. It seems to have carved out a separate kingdom in Yangzhou Prefecture.
Yangzhou Prefecture originally had jurisdiction over three prefectures and seven counties. From the perspective of Luo Xingye, the Right Councilor and Acting Secretary of Yangzhou Prefecture, from now on, he, the Yangzhou Prefecture, can only govern three prefectures and six counties, and the one with the least jurisdiction is Jiangdu County.
Therefore, everyone in Pingshan Hall who witnessed the imperial edict felt that the one government and two offices appointed by the imperial court seemed strange, but they were distinct and had deep meaning.
Jiangdu County, the core of Yangzhou Prefecture, and the Prefecture's Defense Department were under the jurisdiction of Li You, and the other three prefectures and six counties continued to be under the jurisdiction of Mr. Luo. The two were both called Prefecture Lords, and they were responsible for their own affairs without interfering with each other. This was what the imperial court had given
Let’s talk about the meaning of Mr. Li’s official position of “sharing government affairs”.
In the past, Luo and Li were both superiors and subordinates, and they were also in the same prefecture and county. There were many overlapping matters and various disputes were endless. But now, the imperial court has sacrificed Mr. Luo's jurisdiction over Yangzhou City and completely divided their territory.
Open and avoid crossing, and I’m sure there won’t be any more trouble in the future.
The court's intention, in addition to maintaining Li You's dignity, was also to make Luo and Li calm down.
Luo Shenzheng had mixed feelings. From the perspective of economic benefits, he could not control the third-grade magistrate of Jiangdu County, and it would be worse than the original fourth-grade prefect. Yangzhou City under the jurisdiction of Jiangdu County is the essence of the entire Yangzhou Prefecture, with a dense population and a concentration of wealth.
Now that I have completely let go and handed it over to Li You, I feel a little unwilling to do so.
But who dares to resist the imperial decree? Mr. Luo can only comfort himself by saying that misfortune depends on blessings. In fact, Jiangdu County has been managed by Li You and can't get involved. He said it was jurisdiction only in name. Now
It is a great blessing to have officially thrown the hot potato out of the way and avoid entanglement with the insidious and cunning Li You. It will take a few years to find a way to find a job and transfer to another place.
Zhu Fanghe opened the second edict and summoned Envoy Ding Yun of the Department of Salt and Transportation to come forward to receive the order.
"You have a different mentality, make trouble out of nothing, and plot to frame the hero. I want to be loyal and diligent on weekdays. I will be fined for one year and ordered to self-examine behind closed doors for three months. From now on, I am strictly prohibited from interfering in local political affairs."
Hearing that Ding Yun's hands and feet were cold, this was the imperial court's punishment for impeaching Li You! He didn't understand why the trend of the imperial court had changed again in just twenty days?
What Lord Ding doesn't know at this moment is that the direction of the court has never changed, and it has become just his illusion and misjudgment.
Dozens of people in the hall were silent, and all eyes were focused on the tall and tall Mr. Li. Luo Fuzun was forced to hand over the jurisdiction of Yangzhou City, and the salt transport envoy was ordered to shut up and reflect on himself. From today on, who can still control Yangzhou City?
Can you rely on Li You, who takes charge of county affairs and is also in charge of the army? Can you rely on Geng Xundao, the police officer of the police department, who has no official temperament?
