The governor's move is not just a child's play house. The imperial court allowed Fengyang governor's Yamen to move to its own court.
Yang Futai's request to move was more out of his own dignity and he did not want to live next to the newly established Hecao Governor in the same city.
However, in the eyes of the imperial court, it was simply a waste of local governance resources for two feudal officials at the governor level, the Governor of Hecao and the Governor of Fengyang, to be stationed in Huai'an together. Indeed, it was more reasonable to station them separately.
Huai'an is located at the intersection of He, Yun and Huai. It is a natural place for the governor of the river and canal. Therefore, the only choice is for the governor of Fengyang to leave and find another location in the Jiangbei area.
In the Jiangbei region of South Zhili, apart from Huai'an, there were only three major prefectures, Fengyang, Yangzhou and Luzhou. Most of the others were scattered prefectures, among which Fengyang and Yangzhou were the key considerations of the imperial court. The imperial court invited Yang Futai's memorial to Mingfa
The purpose of Di Bao is to test the attitudes of various places. After all, in order to make the transition smooth, local attitudes are also very important.
If there is strong opposition from top to bottom in a place, forcing the governor's office to be moved there is likely to cause something embarrassing for the court.
Sure enough, after the imperial court requested Yang Futai's memorial, everyone in Fengyang Mansion came out with great concerted efforts and unanimously claimed that Yang Futai's choice was right. Yangzhou Mansion was indeed the most suitable place, and Fengyang Mansion was definitely not.
suitable.
There are two main reasons for Fengyang. One is that Fengyang already has a left-behind department in Zhongdu. Adding a new Fengyang governor’s office would inevitably lead to overlapping buildings and duplicative institutions. The other is that Fengyang Prefecture is a vast area with few people and poor people.
The burden was already heavy, and it was even more difficult to provide for it when the governor's office came.
The attitude of Luzhou Prefecture was relatively calm, but it also expressed its opinions tactfully. The reason is also very good. In the Jiangbei area of South Zhili, the location of Luzhou Prefecture is relatively too remote, far away from the economic center and political center of Jiangbei area, and there is no governor
The temperament of the station. The Luzhou Prefecture government office probably knew in its heart that only the governor of Jiangbei who had a bad brain would come to Luzhou Prefecture to station.
Only in Yangzhou Prefecture, there was a silent situation that surprised all the big shots in the court...
When they wanted to come, Yang Futai expressed his desire to go to Yangzhou, the paradise on earth, by name. The reaction of Yangzhou Prefecture should be the most intense. The officials of Yangzhou Prefecture, who are used to being comfortable in a honeypot, each have their own power, and they are in the world.
Officials in one of the most wealthy places are all carefree and would not like a high-ranking governor to barge in and take control of them all.
What's more, Yangzhou Prefecture is not a place with weak power. There are four yamen in Yangzhou City: Yan, Press, Fu, and Li You. Each has its own strengths. With the same spirit, the momentum is definitely not weak.
The Yanyun Department is the most wealthy yamen. Ding Yunshi and Chief Assistant Xu Ge are both disciples of the former Chief Assistant Zhang Ruoyu.
He was a bit weak, but he managed to catch up with Mr. Peng Ge who held his nose to claim him; not to mention Li You, no matter what yamen he was in, this name was the best business card.
Yang Futai wanted to go to Yangzhou, which in a sense stung a hornet's nest. However, Yangzhou Mansion was silent and had no response to Yang Futai's temptation. How could everyone in the imperial court not be surprised? In fact, it was not surprising.
What a coincidence.
Because of Li You's incident, Ding Yunshi was punished by the court for three months of self-examination and was strictly prohibited from interfering in local government affairs. At this time, how could he dare to jump out and give people a reason? What's more, the salt affairs were directly under the Ministry of Household Affairs and not under the jurisdiction of the governor.
, there are other yamen in Yangzhou City, the one who is anxious should be the local government.
Geng Xundao's term of office is coming soon, so it is better to do less than to do more. No matter how important it is, he pretends to be deaf and dumb, just to survive the last few months smoothly, and then go to Beijing to take the examination.
Mr. Luo and Mr. Li, the two local officials who would suffer the most from the governor's relocation, agreed after secret talks that the other party would take action. In order to avoid being remembered by Yang Futai, it was better for them to cheer for the other party. In the end,
No one reported to the court to oppose it desperately.
In this way, the Yangzhou Prefecture appeared in a very strange state of silence regarding the transfer of Fengyang Governor's Yamen.
This state of affairs was regarded as tacit approval by the imperial court. Since the Yangzhou Prefecture also acquiesced, everyone happily approved the move of Governor Fengyang to Yangzhou.
For the officials in Yangzhou City, this is a tragedy that continues to cause internal strife in the face of powerful foreign enemies...
The imperial edict caused waves in the Yangzhou officialdom, especially the two local officials, Mr. Luo and Mr. Li, were particularly affected. However, this turmoil was only in the minds of the officials, and everyone still congratulated each other on the New Year.
, as if nothing happened.
In a sense, Yangzhou City still remained silent on the governor issue. Perhaps everyone felt that it was too late to say something at this time.
Mr. Li, who had received a basketful of name cards, was absent-minded during the New Year. He was always thinking about Yang Futai's affairs.
To this day, he still does not think that his previous actions were wrong. As the saying goes, you are not afraid of opponents who are like gods, but only teammates who are like pigs. The man named Luo can be called a teammate like a pig, and he was dragged down by him!
Moreover, this time he experienced firsthand the disadvantages of being far away from the temple, and the inconvenience of information transmission. He could not transmit his thoughts to the court immediately and accurately, nor could he get the news immediately and accurately.
Let’s forget about the past now. Now that the governor’s move to Yangzhou is a foregone conclusion, we should think more about the future situation and path, Li You secretly thought.
This Governor of Fengyang is a senior official in charge of the civilian, military and supervisory areas. He has great arbitrary power in the local area, and his authority has almost no blind spots. He can be called a super mini-governor. Mr. Li really can't think of any way to fight against a real person.
Governor.
All the previous routines and methods were basically useless. It was impossible for him to confront the governor like he did against the government yamen. He couldn't even handle the Salt Transport Department of the third-rank yamen, let alone the second-rank governor's yamen.
Mr. Li's first concern is that the arrival of the governor may affect his welcome. Now that he and Luo Shenzheng have clear boundaries and do not interfere with each other, it is much quieter. But there will be no such constraints after the governor arrives. Moreover, the welcome
It's strange that the governor isn't interested in such an important matter. He will definitely get involved.
Secondly, he and Yang Futai had an affair in Xuyi. Would Yang Futai hold a grudge so much that he blinded his rationality and deliberately wanted to avenge himself? This is also uncertain.
Based on these two items, Mr. Li was very repulsive towards Yang Futai's arrival, which was no different from Luo's participation in politics.
Li You spent the fifteenth day of the first lunar month in thought. In the end, he only came to one conclusion: It was unwise and absolutely undesirable to fight against the governor, and it was a sign of obsession.
In addition, Mr. Li gradually had an idea in his mind. Everything has advantages and disadvantages. The arrival of the governor not only has its disadvantages, but from another perspective, it may be a great opportunity.
