Chapter 2168 Guizi scroll discussion and weighing
Feng Ziying's words made the three of them a little nervous and uneasy, which meant that the governor in front of them was not satisfied with the current work of the Procuratorate.
An important responsibility of the governor comes from his status as the censor of the capital procuratorate. He is responsible for supervising the work of the procuratorate. He is more direct than the chief envoy and the inspector. Like the governor, he Therefore, adding the titles of Right Imperial Censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate and Right Assistant Minister of the Ministry of War is actually to strengthen the powers and responsibilities of the governor.
After pondering for a while, Xiong Jianqiu said slowly: "What the governor said is true. The chaos in northern Shaanxi is actually closely related to the dereliction of duty, favoritism, bending the law or indifference of these officials. Faced with the local evil gentry and powerful people, many of them even The collusion and collusion will lead to civil unrest in northern Shaanxi, which is like a spark igniting a prairie fire and becoming out of control."
Feng Ziying glanced at the other party with satisfaction. This is a person who understands current affairs. Qiao Yingjia specially told herself that as long as she holds this person firmly, many problems can be easily solved. Being a capable person is not enough. She also needs enough emotional intelligence. , must be aware of current affairs and understand the overall situation, and must be able to quickly understand one's intentions and implement them. This is a talent that is of great use.
Moreover, Feng Ziying also knew that Xiong Jianqiu was also from Shanxi, from Yangcheng, Shanxi. His two brothers, Sun Juxiang Sun Dingxiang of Qinshui, were both from Zezhou. These two counties were located next to each other in Pingyang. He must have been very concerned about the Shaanxi rebellious army's invasion of Shanxi. It's better to be clear. Once Pingyang Mansion falls, his hometown Yangcheng will hardly be spared. He should understand the stakes.
"Well, in the Jianqiu period, northern Shaanxi was barren, and the three sides were facing huge military pressure from the Tumotes. All the taxes paid by the imperial court in Shaanxi were used by the three sides and four towns. It can be said that this was a system that complemented and influenced each other. The problem is that if northern Shaanxi is uneasy, the three sides and four towns will not be able to get enough food and salary guarantees. In turn, the defense will be lax, and there may even be situations where soldiers mutiny or fail to respond to the Tumote invasion. This will also affect the security of northern Shaanxi. Therefore, we need to solve the problem of The North issue is crucial.”
Feng Ziying is very magnanimous. The three censors are theoretically his colleagues, and many things can be explained clearly. This is even more reassuring, especially after Xiong Jianqiu showed his willingness to cooperate.
"Using military means to quell chaos is a temporary solution. So far, it has been relatively smooth. However, it is only easy to put out the open fire. To completely eradicate the hidden fire under the ashes, it requires officials who are capable, capable and strong enough. When it comes to local governance, from what I have learned about the situation in the three prefectures of northern Shaanxi, it is difficult for people to be satisfied with the officials from the prefecture to the prefectures and counties. Inspection and inspection, how are you doing? Do you have an idea? Can you give me a relatively detailed and accurate explanation?"
Xiong Jianqiu exchanged glances with the other two, and then responded in a deep voice: "We have a grasp of the situation in Yan'an Prefecture, and the situation in Qingyang Prefecture has been basically collected. Xuande has just returned from Qingyang. Ding Conggen in Pingliang has not yet recovered, so he should probably be back in the next few days, but I don’t know what you think about the situations we have noticed..."
“It seems that Jianqiu also finds it difficult for you?” Feng Ziying laughed.
"Well, if it were placed in other provinces or normal seasons, these situations would be handled according to law. But now that the situation is turbulent and the rebels are raging, we are still a little worried that if we are too eager for success, it will lead to disaster." Xiong Jianqiu said calmly.
“But you think it’s hard to figure out the scale?” Feng Ziying leaned back slightly and nodded.
Xiong Jianqiu can think of this, which is enough to show that this person is not a pure censor. It is no wonder that Qiao Yingjia values him.
To put it simply, censors don’t care much about the overall situation, and they don’t need to care about the overall situation. They only need to act according to the law, but acting according to the law will sometimes run counter to the overall situation. The fact that Xiong Jianqiu can bring up this idea shows that This person has a stronger view of the overall political situation and has transcended his status as censor.
The material that can be built may be the backbone of Shanxi scholars deliberately cultivated by Qiao Yingjia, Sun Juxiang, and Han Xu.
“Yes, sir, I have a clear understanding.” Xiong Jianqiu nodded.
Feng Ziying pondered for a moment and then waved her hand, "I understand. You guys should sort out the situation first. I'll take a look at it first. We'll discuss it later. But I think that through this civil unrest, the powerful and evil gentry should also be included in the list." As for the targets of purge, maybe these people are not only the source of disaster, but also collude with the rebels. You may not know this, but I have some understanding of the situation obtained from the Long Jinwei and the army's conquest..."
Xiong Jianqiu and the others were shocked. They did not expect that the governor had such a deep relationship with Long Jinwei and could actually obtain information from Long Jinwei.
Long Jinwei and the Metropolitan Procuratorate are two completely different lines. The Metropolitan Procuratorate is to check for corruption and discipline, and targets officials for dereliction of duty and bending the law, while Long Jinwei mainly targets officials for their rebellion and disobedience. There may be some overlap, but it should be Not much, but given the chaos on the border, it's hard to say.
But in any case, if more intelligence confirmation can be obtained from the Longjing Lieutenant and the army, it will definitely be handled more safely.
Xiong Jianqiu couldn't help but remind Feng Ziying.
Feng Ziying took a deep look at the other party and said, "Jianqiu, it's good that you have this structure. We can analyze specific problems in detail. We must consider not only the various conditions in a place, but also the actual performance of the official and the severity of the problem, one by one. Analyze, strive to implement precise policies, and try to make things as detailed as possible with the least impact.”
Xiong Jianqiu and the other three could only nod.
After coming out of the governor's office, Xiong Jianqiu asked the other two colleagues: "How do you feel?"
Lu Minghao is a taciturn and elegant man who has never spoken, but he nodded at this time: "He is worthy of being a talent valued by the Yushi of Youdu. He has clear ideas, accurate analysis, and courage. In addition, he has generous connections. I was thinking about it before. A young man in his early twenties came to serve as governor. Even if he is a general and a good fighter, he may be a little short of experience in fighting against other local snakes in this three-acre area of Shaanxi. But now it seems that, They have already made plans, and they have already made arrangements for us."
Chang Xuande also joined the conversation: "How can the proud disciple of the old monk Shangshu of Qi Ge be an ordinary person? I heard that even the emperor thought highly of him back then. He played solo several times, which even ordinary ministers may not have. Chance."
"Well, it's indeed good. The censor of Youdu also told me that we should fully cooperate and support him in his work. I was still thinking at the time that I also had to weigh the quality of this person. We can't do it with all our hard work. The results were handed over to him to operate, and in the end, the evaluation was done without regard to the overall situation or focusing on one thing and the other. That would be very disappointing. Now it seems that this person is quite promising. Qingtan Academy is really talented." Xiong Jianqiu said calmly.
"I have also received a letter from Duke Yanggu, hoping that we can support and cooperate with Feng Keng." Chang Xuande hesitated for a moment, then said: "This son is also highly favored by Duke Yanggu, and the last time I returned to Beijing, I went When Duke Shen'an came to see him, he was full of praise when he mentioned him."
Yanggu is the nickname of Guan Yingzhen, Shen'an is the nickname of Chai Ke, and Chang Xuande is from Zhongxiang. Guan Yingzhen and Chai Ke are both leaders of Huguang scholars. Naturally, when he returns to Beijing, he will visit the leaders of the township party. .
Lu Minghao couldn't help but sigh: "This governor is one of the few people who are favored by us in Beiland and Huguang at the same time. It is very meaningful for the imperial court to let him come to Shaanxi."
Xiong Jianqiu is from Yangcheng, Zezhou, and Lu Minghao is from Chenzhou, Kaifeng, Henan. They are both northern scholars, while Chang Xuande is from Zhongxiang, Huguang, so Lu Minghao said this.
"Not only that, he also has a good relationship with the Jiangnan gentry, especially his strategy of opening up the sea has won the hearts of the Jiangnan gentry and merchants. In the past, whenever the imperial court needed to communicate with Jiangnan merchants, he would mediate it..." Xiong Jianqiu He added with emotion: "This boy really feels like the chosen one."
After the words were spoken, he felt that he had made a mistake. Xiong Jianqiu quickly added: "I mean this guy is favored by everyone, and even God is helping him."
Lu Minghao and Chang Xuande both agree.
Feng Ziying had expected the visit of the three censors. The censors in the Procuratorate all took turns and were nominally equal. However, Xiong Jianqiu was the most senior and influential among them. He basically defeated Xiong Jianqiu. The affairs of the Shaanxi Province Procuratorate, that is, the Procuratorate in Xi'an, can be handled according to their own baton.
Judging from this contact, I feel pretty good.
It can be seen that Xiong Jianqiu is very proud of their preliminary work in Shaanxi Province. It is estimated that the work in the three prefectures in northern Shaanxi has achieved considerable results. However, Xiong Jianqiu kept silent about the situation in Xi'an Prefecture, and Feng Ziying did not ask in depth.
Feng Ziying is not in a hurry. This is the first time she has contacted and communicated with the censors from the Procuratorate. Even though they have their own connections, these censors all have their eyes high. If she can't come up with something decent, Even if people cooperate with us in the future, the intensity and enthusiasm may not be that great.
Step by step, there will naturally be a way to get these people to come to your side convincingly.
The ones who are anxious should be Lu Chuan and Sun Yijie. Feng Ziying now wants to see how long Lu Chuan and Sun Yijie can be stable, especially Sun Yijie. If this guy gives him a chance and he still pretends to himself, then don't blame yourself. You're welcome, as for Lu Chuan, Feng Ziying has never considered him.
