Pingyang Mansion, the government of the government, is full of people in the backyard.
Zhou Kaitai, the prefect of Pingyang, Yuan Xiangkai, the prefect and Tongzhi, Liang Ming, the right chief envoy of the Shanxi Provincial Government, Chen Shu, the left counselor, He Ming, the experienced secretary, Tongzhi Xianglai, the commander of the Shanxi Dusi, and Tongzhi, the commander of the Pingyang Guards of Shanxi.
Chen Qi, Wang Dong, and Li Mi were in charge.
Admiral Liang Ming, the envoy of the Provincial Government, Si You, sat in the main seat.
The guest on the left is actually Hanlin editor Liu Ji, who has the lowest official position among everyone present.
Yes, imperial envoy.
When he came to Shanxi, he was not promoted to an official position, he just assisted Lu Yuan.
But after all, he was an imperial envoy, and he was from the Hanlin Academy.
These days, no one wants to offend anyone in the Hanlin Academy, especially those who are Imperial Examiners and Imperial Lecturers. Who knows when they will rise to the top.
Liang Ming coughed and said, "Yesterday the one-armed stone man emerged from the water in the Yellow River. We rushed 800 miles to deliver the report to Gyeongsang Province. Do you think that after Gyeongsang Province knows the situation, will it develop as expected?"
Liu Ji shook his head.
The rest of the people fell into deep thought and immediately shook their heads. Zhou Kaitai, the prefect of Pingyang, said: "Although His Majesty shows signs of changing his reserve, his attitude is not firm. It is difficult for a one-armed stone man to make up his mind."
Everyone looked at Liu Ji.
You are from Gyeonggi Province, and you were in charge of making the one-armed stone man of the Yellow River. You, Liu Ji, have to say what the relatives of the Tang family and the court officials in Gyeonggi Province think, and what they will do next.
Liu Ji coughed and said, "This situation has actually been anticipated by Tang Qing, the Minister of the Tang Dynasty. To promote the exchange of reserves, a one-armed stone man should not be enough to make His Majesty make up his mind. There must also be a riot by the victims."
Liang Ming, Shanxi Chengxuan's political envoy Si Youbu, said: "This is easy to operate on the Taiyuan and Fenzhou Prefectures because Lu Yuan and Wang Lan are in charge, but it is not easy to operate on the Pingyang and Lu'an Prefectures.
We have already linked up our manpower, and since Shanxi is close to the border, it is not difficult to control a riot by victims. The key is that the degree of riot is difficult to control."
Wang Lan is Shanxi Chengxuan's political envoy Si Zuobu.
Yuan Xiangkai, the magistrate of Pingyang Prefecture, took a sip of tea, put down the teacup calmly, squinted his eyes and said: "How much, of course, the bigger the better, so that your majesty can know how much damage the prince's lack of morality will cause to our Ming Dynasty.
"
It's not a big deal to watch the fun.
Yuan Xiangkai was born in the same family as a Jinshi, and if he could reach the same position as a magistrate, his official career would be as good as the sky.
If you want to get to another floor, you have to seize this opportunity.
Once the exchange of reserves is successful, as a hero, his relatives of the Tang family and high officials in the court will definitely not treat him badly. At that time, he will not be asked to be the chief envoy, and he can participate in politics.
If you are lucky, it will be perfect to become a minister in the Sixth Department.
Therefore, during the severe drought, as soon as someone sent by the Tang family's relatives contacted him, the two parties immediately hit it off. After that, Yuan Xiangkai persuaded the prefect Zhou Kaitai - and Liang Ming, who accepted the post of governor, was sent by the civil service group in Gyeonggi.
To blend.
Several people from Shanxi Dusi were connected by Tang Xing.
Hence the current situation.
Chen Shu, the left counselor of the Administrative Affairs Department, and He Ming, the experience department manager, looked at each other. Chen Shu coughed and said, "I don't agree. If the turmoil is too big, even if the change of reserve is successful, the Metropolitan Procuratorate will
If we are impeached, we will all be miserable. Let alone promotion, we are lucky to be able to keep our heads."
Their official positions are not high, especially He Ming, who has been promoted to the sixth rank after going through a long career.
Worried about being silenced.
Although Chen Shu's Zuo Counselor was from the fourth rank, he was not firm on this matter. The reason why he still got involved was because Liang Ming had the handle.
Liang Ming glanced at Chen Shu.
Chen Shu shook his head helplessly and hinted that he should beware of Tang's relatives and the civil service clique in Gyeonggi.
After all, we have no backers in Gyeonggi.
Liang Ming knew it well.
He was able to sit in the position of the right-hand political envoy of the Provincial Envoy, not because of his connections in Gyeonggi Province, but because he was tired of officials, and mainly because he was on the right side - during the three-year transfer of reserves in Jingtai, Liang Ming also
It was only the censor of Shanxi Province who wrote to Zhu Qiyu in support of deposing Zhu Jianshen, and was promoted from the censor to Daocheng Xuanzhengxu Siyou to participate in politics. It took more than ten years, and in the fifteenth year of Jingtai, he was qualified to be the right censorship.
But Liang Ming disagreed with Chen Shu's view.
With so many people, Tang's relatives and the Gyeonggi Civil Service Group dare to commit suicide?
Dare to kill someone and silence them?
The chief envoy is of the second rank anyway.
The reason why he was still willing to get involved this time was because someone offered him an offer he couldn't refuse: once the reserve exchange was successful, he would be allowed to work with the Liang family of Zhengding to form a merchant ship for overseas trade.
The Zhengding Liang family has not yet participated in maritime trade.
But getting ready.
It is said that two million taels have been prepared, and the plan is to use the name of the family behind Liu Jue, Minister of the Ministry of War, to participate in maritime trade. Well, those two million are just money to ask for directions.
It's not money from sea trade.
Therefore, Zhu Jianji of the East Palace made more than ten million taels, and thought he had made a fortune.
In fact, Qiqing will earn more!
Thinking of this, Liang Ming smiled and said: "The one-armed stone man of the Yellow River has appeared. Your Majesty will definitely send someone to investigate. We have been pushed to the fire. If there is no turmoil to wash it away, when the Jin Yiwei investigates, none of us will be killed."
Want to break away from the relationship. His Highness the Crown Prince's cruelty is obvious to all, and this move is suspected of treason. Moreover, this matter is a direct threat to the East Palace reserve. His Highness the Crown Prince is bound to retaliate vigorously. It is normal to kill nine tribes and so on. Therefore, the only way
The plan is a turmoil, a turmoil that can cleanse the entire Shanxi, a turmoil that can shake the security of the capital!"
The bigger the better.
Shanxi Dusi Commander Tong Zhi Xianglai, as well as his subordinate Pingyang Guard Commander and others, remained silent.
As a military commander, they actually like His Highness the Crown Prince very much.
Hard enough!
It's just that liking is one thing, fame and wealth are another. This time it works, everyone can be promoted. The Pingyang Guards went to Gyeonggi, and they were promoted to the Governor of the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion.
The distribution of benefits has already been agreed upon.
At this moment, he heard the words and said: "In this case, Shanxi Dusi has a heavy responsibility. I'm afraid it will be a bit..."
It’s hard to say what’s behind.
Once the turmoil is too great, Shanxi Dusi officials will be held accountable even after the reserve is changed.
Liang Ming smiled and said: "In a disaster, how can the local guard station quickly gather troops, let alone the Tang family's relatives and the seven ministers will blame you and others. There is no need to be afraid, but to the commander, you must do one thing:
That is, once the reserve exchange in Gyeonggi becomes clear, the suppression of the riots must be completed within half a month!"
In this way, not only will you not be held accountable, but you will also gain military merit.
He always took a deep breath and said, "This is the only way."
Liu Ji stood up, "That's it, everyone, act quickly. I hope that before dark tomorrow, news of the riots by the victims will be sent to Gyeonggi from Pingyang Prefecture and Lu'an Prefecture!"
Exchange reserves, and finally the final wave of attack is about to begin!
