Chapter 392: We are in the same boat...
As for why Yang Futai was unwilling to be stationed in Huai'an Prefecture, known as "Little Yangzhou", and instead requested the imperial court to relocate, it is easy to understand, and it goes without saying that Li You could figure it out.
Because of this year's warning of floods, in order to strengthen the two major tasks of river management and ensuring transportation, which are related to the national economy and people's livelihood, the imperial court took away the four major affairs of the army, civilians, rivers, and canals of Governor Yang, and took away the river and canal affairs, and upgraded them to one
A governor of the rivers and rivers was established at the highest level, and he was also stationed in Huai'an Mansion, located at the throat of Huanghuai.
Previously, Governor Yang of Fengyang had always been the number one official in the Jiangbei region, but now there is a governor with a higher rank than the governor, and he is still in the same city. This feeling is really uncomfortable.
In particular, the governor's authority used to belong to the governor of Fengyang. After being stripped away by the imperial court, it was placed under his nose and was given an additional level. How could Yang Futai not be extremely embarrassed?
To put it simply, there is no room for two tigers in one mountain. To put it more deeply, Yang Futai, who was secretly demoted, could not afford to lose that person. He would have no honor in Huai'an and would have no shame to continue to stay there.
That’s why Mr. Yang petitioned the imperial court to move Fengyang Governor’s Office away from Huai’an Prefecture. Looking at the Jiangbei region, the only good place to relocate is Yangzhou Prefecture. In other words, a place more prosperous and prosperous than Huai’an Prefecture.
Only Yangzhou Prefecture. Or it can be said that only a prosperous and wealthy hometown like Yangzhou City can soothe Mr. Yang's injured soul.
And Yang Futai had a good reason. Since he didn't care about the river, there was no need to be stationed in Huai'an Mansion at the intersection of Huanghuai Transport. And because he also served as the prime minister's grain storage errand, he was stationed in Yangzhou, which was relatively close to the south of the Yangtze River, so it was convenient to supervise the governments in the south of the Yangtze River.
Unleash the grain.
Li You glanced at the Di newspaper that Luo Shenzheng had placed on his desk from a distance. This must be the "complete copy".
Yang Futai petitioned the imperial court to move to Yangzhou. So far, it was just a petition, not a final decision. Therefore, the clean book in his government office did not publish it. There was only news about the appointment of the governor of Hecao. As a result, he was confused.
As the old saying goes, it’s really your own fault.
Why did the imperial court publish Yang Futai's memorial in the imperial newspaper and spread it to the world on a small scale? Li You guessed that it was probably to solicit opinions from the relevant local yamen.
You must know that the relocation of the governor's Yamen is of great importance and has a profound impact on the local area. In the 21st century, it is equivalent to moving the provincial capital. The court must be cautious in making decisions, so it must first listen to local rumors.
Seeing Luo Shenzheng's expression instantly change into one of hatred and hatred, Li You also felt a little bit the same way.
You don’t need to think about it to know that no one in the entire Yangzhou officialdom wants the governor’s office to be stationed in Yangzhou, not even the acting prefect who participates in political affairs, nor the acting prefect who is a Tongzhi, nor the sub-inspector, nor the salt transport envoy!
It's fine if the governor is stationed in Huai'an. The sky is high and the emperor is far away, but moving to the local area is another matter. Who among the local emperors is willing to add a supreme emperor for no reason?
Although Yang Futai left Maicheng due to bad luck and lost some of his power, he is still the second rank equivalent to the minister, and he is still a feudal official acting under the imperial envoy system. The level difference is too far. There is no such official among these current officials.
One that can fight.
Even the Salt Transportation Department, which was directly under the imperial court and not under the jurisdiction of the governor, still strongly opposed the entry of another larger yamen in Yangzhou. What if one day the imperial court wanted to seize the salt affairs and let the governors of the imperial envoy system supervise the salt affairs nearby?
Don't you ask for trouble? There is no precedent for this in the officialdom of the country and the dynasty.
Luo Shenzheng frowned and said: "I will come here to report. On the north side of the Nanzhi River, our Yangzhou Prefecture is southeast and close to Nanjing, which is not suitable for controlling the overall situation. Fengyang, the central capital, is where Longxing is, which is suitable for the governor's Yamen to be stationed!
Mr. Li, you are in the same department in Yangzhou and you are also the one who governs one side, do you have no objection to this?"
Li You thought for a while and said firmly: "What Luo Da Shen said is absolutely true. I second my opinion!"
Luo Shenzheng looked very pleased, nodded and said, "I will contact the Salt Transportation Department Yamen, and Mr. Li, how about you contact the Sub-inspection Road Yamen? In short, the governor's Yamen cannot be stationed in Yangzhou, otherwise we will all become governors.
As officials, we must work together to help each other at this time!"
Facing a common powerful enemy, Li You also put aside his previous suspicion and expressed his goodwill: "Yes, you and I must work together and do our best. Everyone else is actually an official, and only you and I are local officials who are close to the people, and we cannot bear the care."
Taiwan’s pressure.”
"Then you and I will work separately, the sooner the better!"
Seeing Luo's active, clear-cut, and passionate attitude in participating in politics made Mr. Li very uncomfortable. He thought to himself that this Luo person had always been dazed. Why did he suddenly become enlightened? Maybe he was really anxious when facing this juncture.
.
He also thought, if the governor comes, Luo Dacan will have the governor above him, and he will have Li You below him. Being caught in the middle will be the most uncomfortable one, so if he doesn't take the initiative, who will take the initiative? Well, let the person named Luo take the lead.
After seeing Mr. Li off, Luo Shenzheng was thoughtful. When Li You was in Xuyi, he had the upper hand in a ring with Yang Futai, so he definitely had no fear. It was nothing to Mr. Li to take the lead.
I think Mr. Li is young and successful, domineering, dares to speak and do, arrogant, has a strong backing, and is currently popular, so he is the best candidate to take the lead. Li You should have been touched by his reasonable, beneficial and measured encouragement for a long time.
Take action and make a difference?
Li You did not stop thinking on the road and continued to calculate silently. No matter where the governor's office was moved, Governor Fengyang, who commanded the army and people in Jiangbei, was still the superior of Yangzhou Prefecture. Due to this concern, he must be cautious.
If he behaves too conspicuously and is resented by the governor again, it will be a bit uneconomical and not worth the gain. The key point is that this is not his alone. If he single-handedly goes all out to benefit everyone, it will be a loss no matter how you look at it.
Anyway, there are so many officials in Yangzhou, why should we be too active? If the sky falls, the tall ones will be hit first, leaving Luo Da Shen to organize the affairs. If not, there will be two big shots, Ding Yunshi and Geng Xundao.
Luo Shenzheng returned to the house and was silent for a long time and worried. His foundation was not as strong as others. Li You had people to protect him in the court, and Ding Yunshi also had people to protect him in the court. Only he was far behind.
Those two people could afford to offend Yang Futai, so even if they were worried, it was not fear, and he had to weigh himself a few times, fearing that he could not withstand even one finger of Yang Futai. The most important thing for a person is to have self-awareness.
This time I just honestly cheered for Li You and cheered him up.
Luo Shenzheng recalled Li You's bad records in his mind. Including himself, Li You was always full of energy in fighting with his superiors, and he never seemed to miss a beat, showing an invincible demeanor. The former sages said that there is no specialization in the art industry.
, Li You is absolutely trustworthy in this regard, and professional matters should be left to professionals.
