522 [Department of Railways]
Since Zhu Houzhao's illness worsened, the new system of the 369 Dynasty has been completely forgotten by the emperor.
Except for major festivals such as New Year's Day and the winter solstice, this goods usually don't go to Fengtian Temple at all, and they don't even return to the leopard room for ten days and a half months. He nested in Haoshan Garden for a long time, urging the improvement of muskets and muskets, and watching the warriors wrestle and fight when he was boredβthe environment of that place was better than the leopard house, after all, the Qing Dynasty built the Summer Palace here, which was very suitable for Zhu Houzhao's health and life.
It's a pity that I still haven't been able to quit drinking, and if I have that self-control, I won't be called Zhu Houzhao.
The emperor did not go to court at all, and all political affairs were thrown to the cabinet and the celebrant supervisor, and it was pure fool's dream if there was no problem.
Zhang Yong knew that he was old and frail, and it was estimated that he would not live for a few years, but he did not directly move the silver from the treasury to his house as before. However, this product used the right to palm print and pen to promote his family crazily!
The elder brother Zhang Fu and the younger brother Zhang Rong, as early as the fifth year of Zhengde, were named Qin Anbo and Andingbo respectively. Then their position as a brocade guard soon became hereditary. Now, his elder brother Zhang Fu is dead, and Zhang Yong forced the Houjun Governor to promote his younger brother Zhang Rong to the commander of the Jinyi Guard (hereditary, but without real position and real power).
There are also several sons and nephews of Zhang Yong, all of whom have become hereditary families of Jinyiwei.
Li Ying has been promoted to the right governor of the Houjun Governor's Mansion, and is in charge of the Jinyi Guard. In the face of Zhang Yong's red-stamped appointment documents, Li Sanlang could not refuse at all, and once he refused, he would disobey the emperor's order.
Zhang Yong's nephew, Wang Xuan, was promoted to the governor of the capital in the past, but now he has become a military attache (military attache with real power)!
Wang Rong was crazy about the food and salary of the soldiers in the Beijing camp, and Zhang Rong attacked the people in the suburbs of Beijing and wantonly occupied countless people's land.
The officials of the Department of Science and Technology were too lazy to impeach, and the impeachment chapter of the six departments had to be handed over by the General Administration Department, and finally handed it to Zhang Yong, the master of ceremonies. The impeachment recital of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, after a random turn, still came into the hands of Zhang Yong, the celebrant of ceremonies.
Who in the court sued the officer?
It's a fart!
Wang Yuan can see the emperor, but with Zhu Houzhao's character, he won't care about this kind of thing at all, and making a small report will only offend Zhang Yong.
In this regard, Wang Yuan and Yang Tinghe are the same, both of them have already sharpened their knives, and they will only wait for the emperor to die and take action against Zhang Yong - in history, Yang Tinghe united with Zhang Yong and Wang Qiong to get rid of Jiang Bin and Lu Wan together. But when he turned his head, he turned his face directly, Wang Qiong was exiled to the army, and Zhang Yong was thrown to guard the imperial mausoleum.
Now Zhang Yong is still very naΓ―ve, while promoting his family and conniving at his family's corruption and bending the law, he secretly befriended Wang Yuan and Yang Tinghe, wanting to get a good end.
"Zhang Dugong, without the cabinet to draft a vote, your holy decree is against the law!" Yang Tinghe rushed to the celebrant to discuss the explanation.
Zhang Yong is already old, with age spots on his face. When he saw Yang Tinghe, he didn't get up, he just lay on the chair and bowed: "Elder Yang Ge, this is Your Majesty's will, it's useless for you to tell me." His Majesty is in the northwest suburbs of Haoshan Garden, and Yang Ge Lao can go there on his own and ask His Majesty to take back his order. β
Yang Tinghe frowned and asked, "But Wang Ruoxu instigated it?" β
Zhang Yong smiled: "Who else can there be besides him?" We still haven't figured out what the railroad is for. β
Yang Tinghe said depressedly: "That's where the dragon vein is, how can you easily break the ground?" If something happens, who can afford it? There is also the Ministry of Industry, His Majesty did not consult with the Ministry of Officials, so he directly added a Department of Officials! β
Zhang Yong leisurely picked up the teacup, took a sip, and persuaded: "Old Yang Ge, you and I are already old, why should you fight with young people anymore?" This Wang Shangshu, although he is young, is very disciplined, and he will definitely not act indiscriminately. He knew that it was impossible for you to agree to move the earth in the dragon pulse, so he said that His Majesty would directly issue a holy decree. If this matter does not go through the cabinet, even if something goes wrong, it has nothing to do with you, the ministers. β
"Of course I do." Yang Tinghe said.
Zhang Yong said with a smile: "Wang Shangshu has no selfish intentions in this matter, otherwise he would not have bypassed the cabinet." β
Bypassing the cabinet and directly issuing a holy decree, it is true that the railway can be built quickly. But it is equivalent to handing a knife to Yang Tinghe, and Yang Dang can completely use the dragon vein to talk about things, and impeach Wang Yuan madly when he catches a disaster.
But Yang Tinghe is just embarrassed, he is about to be driven crazy by Wang Yuan.
Wang Yuan cooperated for a while, retreated for a while, and bypassed the cabinet for a while, and what he did was out of order. Yang Tinghe couldn't guess at all, whether Wang Yuan wanted to cooperate with him, or whether he wanted to go against him, or whether the well water did not interfere with the river water.
"That's it!" Yang Tinghe brushed his sleeves and left.
Zhang Yong suddenly spoke: "Elder Yang Ge, listen to our family's advice, don't toss around." Wang Shangshu is actually very easy to deal with. You are an official, he is doing things, as long as you don't block him from doing things, he will not hinder you from being an official. β
Yang Tinghe seemed to be enlightened, suddenly enlightened, and at the same time unwilling to admit it.
What do you mean by being an official, that he is doing things?
It's like Lao Tzu's corpse vegetarian meal!
It is precisely because of this that Yang Tinghe pretends to be a minister of the society and does not feel that he is a professional politician, so he has never been able to figure out Wang Yuan's path.
Yang Tinghe sneered, didn't look back, and said as he walked: "Zhang Dugong, I also advise you, take care of your brother and nephew!" Otherwise, Wang Ruoxu, who does things, is not as good as me, who is an official. β
The authorities are confused, and the bystanders are clear.
Zhang Yong and Yang Tinghe can only see each other clearly, they can't understand themselves correctly, and even if they do, they are subconsciously unwilling to admit it.
Zhang Yong was stunned, and after Yang Tinghe left, he suddenly called a little eunuch: "Tell An Dingbo (Zhang Rong) and Wang Dudu (Wang Rong) what they have done recently, try to remedy it, and don't let anyone catch it!" β
The little eunuch immediately ran to deliver the message.
Zhang Yong said to himself again: "No, it's still not right......" After thinking for a long time, he finally figured it out, "Wang Erlang does things and focuses on the overall situation of the world." Yang Tinghe is an official, and he is pretentious, and he categorically cannot tolerate the close ministers of the Son of Heaven. Once Your Majesty ...... When the time comes, it is not Wang Erlang who will do something to me, but him Yang Tinghe! β
As soon as Zhu Houzhao died, Yang Tinghe, in order to enhance his prestige, would inevitably take the eunuchs, Jinyi guards, and the Leopard Fang border army. Because these three forces have great grievances, and they are not tolerated by civilian officials, and they are also very easy to deal with, Zhang Yonghui was the first to be cleaned up by Yang Tinghe.
Zhang Yong was so anxious that his vest was sweating, and he stood up tremblingly, planning to go to Haoshan Garden every other day, and try to find time to serve the emperor in person. Regardless of whether it has an effect or not, they frantically gave Yang Tinghe eye medicine until Yang Tinghe was forced to be dismissed!
If Yang Tinghe could not be dismissed, Zhang Yong would remove his family from their official positions, let them bring back to their hometown the goods they had looted for many years, and pray that Yang Tinghe would not be wiped out.
Yang Tinghe dismissed?
can't stop it, otherwise Zhu Houzhao will not be able to maintain peace of mind.
No matter what Zhang Yong thought in his heart, Yang Tinghe didn't bother to stop Wang Yuan from doing things anyway. If Wang Yuan has the ability, he will bypass the cabinet to do it, and the cabinet will pick peaches when there is a political achievement, and if something goes wrong, he just grabbed Wang Yuan's handle.
The illegal edict was thrown down, which immediately aroused the opposition of the bureaucracy, and the engineering department was happy to see it.
However, the opposition of the officials was invalid, and their objections had to be reflected to Zhang Yong through the Department of General Administration.
Why is the clerk opposed?
Because Wang Yuan wants to increase the number of yamen and officials, he will set up a new railway cleaning department at the level of a foreigner in the Ministry of Industry!
The Ministry of Industry has a total of four major Qing Divisions, namely Yingxiu (construction and repair), Yuheng (mountains, forests and waters), Dushui (water conservancy projects) and Tuntian.
Now, Wang Yuan wants to add a railway cleaning department, with two subordinate agencies of the railway station and the railway bureau.
The Department of Railways, in charge of the affairs of the world's railways, temporarily set up one of the five products, three people from the five products, and three people from the six products.
The Railway Institute is in charge of the operation and construction of railways in the world, and temporarily has two people from the Seventh Grade Institute, two deputies from the Eighth Grade Institute, and six deputies from the Ninth Grade Institute.
The Railway Bureau, that is, the small treasury of the Railway Division. The income from railway operation is collected by the Railway Bureau; Railway construction materials are also kept by the Railway Administration. Temporarily set up one ambassador of the nine products and three deputy envoys from the nine products. This unit only has the right to keep it, not the right to dispose of it, and there will be a full-time outsider in charge.
These are all rogue officials, as well as miscellaneous officials and errand servants who do not enter the stream.
Moreover, the officials of the Ministry of Industry's Railway Department were all handed over to physics disciples, and Wang Yuan did not allow outsiders to get involved.
It is necessary to take advantage of the fact that the officials are not aware of the huge profits involved, and quickly put this matter to a conclusion. In the future, adjustments will definitely be made, and subordinate offices will also be set up in various localities, and profits will also be distributed to local governments and household departments in exchange for the cooperation and support of other yamen.
