Chapter 204: A sudden storm in the B-character volume
Once something gets started, no one can control it.
Qiao Yingjia also felt this deeply. He admired the perseverance, courage and determination of his fellow student, but if this would start a **** purge, he would have to think deeply. .
Everyone knows the disadvantages of the Kaizhong method. There are a lot of holes left over from the era of the Supreme Emperor. If you want to check them, you can definitely find countless them.
The question is, so what if we find out? Apart from a large number of scapegoats being kicked out, what other outcome will there be? What about the businessmen behind them and those who hide deeper?
Shen Guanyi talked to him, but he did not express his position.
It is necessary for a new official to take office, otherwise no one will take you, the right deputy censor of the capital, seriously.
But where the fire burns and to what extent it burns requires consideration.
"Xiu Ling, what do you think?" Yang He was specially summoned, and Qiao Yingjia wanted to discuss how to deal with this matter.
"The chief minister has come to visit us, why don't you, Brother Ru Jun, show some respect?" Yang He laughed.
When they visited Qingjiangpu from Zhejiang, the two people had already discussed it. They believed that the salt administration of the Great Zhou Dynasty was facing many problems, and the biggest victim was the imperial finances, which were the border troops on the nine sides.
"Face is earned by oneself. If anyone comes to say hello, we, the Procuratorate, will obey. Then who will give us face in the future?" Qiao Yingjia smiled coldly, "We, the Procuratorate, will eat it ourselves. If this bowl of rice is filled with a bunch of people who only know how to earn the emperor's salary but are not loyal to the emperor, then how necessary is the existence of the Metropolitan Procuratorate?"
Yang He felt the strong determination revealed in Qiao Yingjia, and his heart trembled.
He did not believe that Qiao Yingjia was the kind of person who acted recklessly and recklessly. Yes, the Metropolitan Procuratorate was indeed the place where officials were rectified and disciplined, but it was also a pillar that maintained the empire's power structure and kept it relatively stable. This is the necessary political quality for everyone who can stand in a high position.
Unless absolutely necessary, a functioning, if not smooth, imperial power structure is a basic requirement.
“Brother Ru Jun, are you really ready to go to war?” Yang He became a little worried.
“Why, Xiu Ling, are you scared?” Qiao Yingjia chuckled.
"Brother Ru Jun is joking. Yang He has never been afraid of anything since he became the censor." Yang He shook his head, but then said: "What the chief assistant said before seems to be some excuses, but it is also It cannot be denied that his worries are all unfounded..."
The reason why Qiao Yingjia valued Yang He was that he felt that Yang He not only had **** courage, but also had a view of the overall situation and would not be easily enthusiastic. There was no shortage of those high-ranking censors in the Imperial Palace, but there was a lack of them. The kind of person who can grasp the right balance at critical moments is exactly the most distressing part of the Metropolitan Procuratorate now.
Of course, Qiao Yingjia also knows that if the Metropolitan Procuratorate is filled with a bunch of weaklings and old people who are dawdling around, then the Metropolitan Procuratorate will only get worse, so he would rather maintain the status quo and retain a group of young people who still have some blood and courage. , allowing them to charge into battle, but as the deputy imperial envoy of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, he should know the bottom line and propriety.
But the bottom line that Shen always set for himself was not the bottom line that Qiao Yingjia wanted.
Shen has always been old, so old that even sneezing and catching a cold can't be tolerated.
"Xiu Ling, this is why I came to discuss with you." Qiao Yingjia nodded, "The Chief Assistant has some views that are acceptable, but from his perspective, it does not mean that our Metropolitan Procuratorate must follow his settings. He thinks too much about the stability of himself, the Ministry of Finance and even some places, and feels that if he is not careful, something big will happen. But I think something may not necessarily be a bad thing. Well, for some people As a reminder, loosening your muscles and bones may help many people restrain themselves."
Yang He also laughed, and he felt a little more at ease.
Qiao Yingjia still accepted some of Shen Yiguan's opinions in his words. Well, he may not agree with it to a certain extent, but that doesn't matter. As long as Qiao Yingjia has a scale in his heart and understands that this kind of thing cannot continue to develop endlessly, that is enough.
As for how far it goes, Yang He believes that Qiao Yingjia has an idea in his mind.
"Brother Ru Jun, where do we start? Or, well, where do we move?" Yang He's eyes were filled with a hint of eagerness to try.
"Xiu Ling, haven't you already figured it out in your mind?" Qiao Yingjia also laughed, looking confident, "If Xiu Ling is not sure, it's okay to ask Brother Yu to give you some advice."
Yang He was determined. He stood up and cupped his hands, "I will definitely live up to Brother Rujun's high expectations. I will rush to Liangzhe today."
"Sit down, don't be so impatient. This is a serious matter. I'm afraid many people still think that with the emperor's calm mentality and the suppression of the chief minister, everything will pass as painlessly as before. But, what's the routine? It’s just for breaking, it’s better to give them some ‘surprises’.”
At this time, Qiao Yingjia's face was already a bit cold and murderous, "Some people live so comfortably that they forget about it, but they forget about the soldiers on the border who fought **** battles without enough food."
Taking a deep breath, Yang He also knew that this was Qiao Yingjia's intention to delegate power to himself and let him have a sense of proportion, and this sense of restraint should be relatively large and deep.
"Brother Ru Jun, do you have any explanation?" This point still needs to be asked clearly. Yang He also knows that there must be many things involved behind Qiao Yingjia's ability to reach this position from the censor of patrol.
"Well,..." Qiao Yingjia didn't answer the question for a while. After pondering for a while, he said: "Xiu Ling, you should know the current difficult situation of the court. Last month, the emperor called me for a talk and also talked about the current situation brought by the mine supervisor and tax supervisor. There are many problems, but the emperor also admitted that there is no solution..., Zhang Shilang of the Ministry of War of Japan and I also talked about it before. When the prince was vacated as the governor of Xuanda, the lion opened his mouth. Shanxi, Datong and Xuanfu Town needed a lot of food and grass. , the gap is huge, and the Ministry of Revenue is simply unable to solve it,..."
Yang He was taken aback, "Brother Ru Jun, Wang Ziteng is a bit alarmist. The third town of Xuanda has always been a place protected by the imperial court, far better than Jiliao. It is also because the situation in Jiliao has become increasingly tense in the past two years that it has just begun to show some signs of alarmism." Incidentally, if you look at the three sides and four towns, that is the biggest problem. The Tatars in Hetao cannot continue to languish like in previous years. In my opinion, if the court really wants to give priority to solving it, it must also solve the three problems. Biansi Town, then Jiliao, and finally Xuanda.”
Qiao Yingjia also smiled bitterly and held his forehead, "Such things should not be considered by me and other people in the Metropolitan Procuratorate, but it is difficult for the court to eat the emperor's salary and to be loyal to the emperor. It is even more difficult for the emperor. Zhang Shilang and When I talked about this, I sighed with regret..."
Yang He carefully tried to figure out the hidden meaning in the other person's words, and if he had some understanding, the other person didn't clarify it, which made him a little worried about whether he would misunderstand it.
Seeing Yang He's expression, Qiao Yingjia knew that the other party must have vaguely guessed some of the meaning. He was probably still a little unsure. Is this Yang Xiuling acknowledging his shortcomings, or was he too loyal and honest? Do you have to clarify it yourself?
However, Qiao Yingjia is not someone who dares not to express his position and take responsibility. Since he wants the other party to do it freely, he must make it clear.
"Xiu Ling, you and I have known each other for many years, and you also know my temperament. Well, this time I inspected the two Zhejiang provinces for the second time to clear the holes. The emperor has long heard about the collusion between the salt affairs of the two Zhejiang provinces and the local evil gentry. He also If you intend to investigate and deal with it, you must act with caution. At that time, Long Jinwei will also have arrangements..."
These words immediately made Yang He understand a lot, and he regretted that he should not have hesitated.
Now it seems that the right deputy censor of the capital has already obtained Shang Fang's sword. Even with or without the guidance of the chief assistant, he may have made up his mind long ago.
It's just that the intervention of the Dragon Guard is a bit intriguing and difficult to handle.
Yang He disliked dealing with this group of people, but he had to admit that they were more capable locally.
Compared to working alone, even if there is some cooperation in some places, it is far less effective than having the support of this group of people. If there is the help of this group of people, then many things will definitely be smoother, faster and more effective.
"Brother Ru Jun, what should we do with this Dragon Guard..."
"Xiu Ling, we act in accordance with the rules of our Metropolitan Procuratorate and do not accept interference from anyone. Long Jinwei is only cooperating with some of our specific actions. At that time, there will be people in the two Zhejiang provinces who will obey our instructions. Well, of course, we will act accordingly. There is no need to hide anything, Long Jinwei has their own way to deal with it. If there are some things that are difficult for us to deal with, we can consider leaving them to handle it..."
These words were so heart-felt that Yang He suddenly felt at ease and nodded repeatedly, "Xiu Ling understands, this matter must be controlled by our Metropolitan Procuratorate, and other people are not allowed to interfere. If there is..."
"If anyone tries to influence the intervention, they can be dealt with immediately!" Qiao Yingjia added.
Seeing the stern eyes of the other party, Yang He also smiled and said, "If they really want to die, then we have no choice but to give them a ride."
They both laughed knowingly.
After the business was finished, Qiao Yingjia asked about the situation of Yang He's son, Yang Sichang.
“When Wen Ruo came back, he also talked about Brother Ru Jun’s favorite protégé. He was full of praise for Ziying and said that Ziying would have a great chance in the next year.” Yang He naturally did not hesitate to praise Feng Ziying.
Say nothing and continue asking for votes!
