Chapter 820: Huichen has grown up

Unlike Chen Pugao, who caused a mess and was recalled to report on his work, Feng Demin was promoted to governor of Yunnan because of his outstanding political achievements when he served as the political envoy of Guizhou before.

The governors and political envoys in the Tang Dynasty are not the same as the governors and political envoys in the Ming Dynasty, the governors of the Tang Dynasty are not sent, but the actual official positions, without a large list of sending titles, nor are they officials sent by the central government, but belong to local officials.

The governor of the Tang Dynasty is the chief official in charge of the political affairs of a province, except for the military affairs, the others can be managed, of course, the central departments of taxation, the Supervision Yuan, the ** Yuan, the patrol police department, these central departments are under the agency, it is the relationship with the local co-management, the actual power is smaller than the governor of the Ming Dynasty, but it is still the real feudal official, the real power is in hand, which can be seen from its grade, it is from the second grade

As for the political envoy, as the deputy of the governor, the grade is the third grade.

In the Tang Dynasty, although the Beijing officials are more noble than the local officials, the status of the governor of a province will not be worse than the squire of the ministries, although the squires of the ministries are also from the second grade, but in the Tang Dynasty, the cabinet directly under the ministries of more than a dozen, and there is an increasing trend, which makes the power of the ministries is constantly dispersed.

Shangshu is still like this, not to mention the waiter, there are two waiters on the left and right of each department, and the waiters of the Tang Dynasty are now about to break through thirty people, except for the waiters of the real power department, the waiters of the ordinary department are actually limited in power.

And to judge whether the officials of the ministries and other institutions directly under the central government have power, it is no longer possible to judge from their own officials, but from whether they have entered the imperial study, the minister on duty in the imperial study, that is the real high power, and the minister of the imperial study is the second echelon.

The officials who didn't enter the imperial study were just ordinary Beijing officials!

Feng Demin was promoted to the governor of Yunnan, although this Yunnan is currently the weakest foundation under the rule of the Tang Dynasty, and it is not even a province that has been completely controlled, but it can't stand the title of governor, this is a little transitional for a few years, and in the future, he will be able to transfer to other major provinces as governors, and further, it is possible to enter Beijing as the left servant of the real power department, and the follow-up is to strive to serve as a Shangshu and even enter the imperial study.

Of course, these things are still too far away for Feng Demin.

As an official from the dragon very early, Feng Demin's qualifications are deep enough, but his starting point is a little lower, he defected to the Tang Dynasty during the Xingquan Mansion period, and at the beginning he was just serving as the section chief of a county.

Later, with the rapid expansion of the Tang Dynasty, as an old man from the dragon, his promotion to this official was the same as riding a rocket, and it only took him three months to go from section chief to county officer.

From the county to the county order, it only took him half a year!

Then, because of his outstanding political achievements, he climbed to the sky in one step, and was promoted several levels in a row, serving as the prefect of Guizhou Duyun Prefecture, and then skipped from the third grade, and was directly promoted to the political envoy of Guizhou.

Now, he is taking over as governor of Yunnan!

Along the way, his own excellent ability has certainly played a great role, but it is more because he has been from Long Zao and caught up with the rapid expansion of the Tang Dynasty.

This has laid a new territory, and officials have to be dispatched to take over, so naturally it is the old man who takes precedence.

Therefore, Feng Demin's promotion path is actually the promotion path of many senior officials of the Tang Dynasty at present, with a little ability, and then if he is from the dragon relatively early, then the promotion will be like being a rocket.

And the scholars or officials who take refuge in the follow-up will have a much slower road to promotion, and the later they take refuge, the slower.

When the officials and even Li Xuan selected the officials himself, they often gave priority to the promotion of the old people in the Zhengtai County and Xingquanfu eras, then the old people in the Guangxi period, and then the officials in the three provinces period.

After occupying Jiangxi, Hunan, and Fujian, although the promotion of officials who took refuge in these periods was not slow, they were no longer considered to be rockets.

As for the current Jiangnan period, the new officials who have come over can only slowly boil their qualifications.

If this were not the case, then and now, who would have taken refuge in the Tang Dynasty early, in order to join as soon as possible, and then win a dragon merit.

And from the dragon's work, the earlier the merit, the greater the credit, but the earlier the more dangerous it is.

Therefore, the earlier they join, the more they take the risk, the higher the return they naturally need to be given.

Now that the Tang Dynasty is already sharing the world equally with the Ming Dynasty, it is almost impossible for you to get a high position if you join in, and when the Tang Dynasty completely defeats the Ming Dynasty and unifies China, if you want to join in, it is even more impossible to have any preferential treatment, so stay up honestly!

Feng Demin, as an early minister from the dragon, can achieve the high position of the governor of a province today, which can be regarded as satisfied, after entering Li Xuan's office, Li Xuan naturally can't beat him the same as Chen Pugao, on the contrary, he and Feng Demin carefully discussed how to govern Yunnan government affairs.

At the same time, Li Xuan also put forward several requirements to Feng Demin, one is to find out the current situation of Tusi in Yunnan, and lay the foundation for the follow-up land reform and return, but he also said at the same time that Yunnan's land reform and return to the river must be done, but not in a hurry, at least in recent years, it is necessary to be in a hurry, so as not to cause any chaos.

For the Tusi of the southwestern provinces, the attitude of the Tang Dynasty is clear, that is, to maintain the status quo.

As long as these Tusi did not make trouble for the Tang Dynasty, recognized the central ruling power of the Tang Dynasty, and paid taxes, then the Tang Dynasty would follow the example of the Ming Dynasty and recognize their hereditary status in the local area.

Of course, almost every high-level official of the Tang Dynasty knows that it is always necessary to change the land and return to the stream, and the Ming Dynasty has already begun to carry out the reform of the land and return to the stream, and it has been implemented in Guangxi and Guizhou, there is no reason to wait for the Tang Dynasty to turn back the clock in history.

However, it is necessary to change the land and return to the stream, but not now, at least before the Tang Dynasty unified China, Li Xuan is unwilling to cause large-scale turmoil in the southwest region because of the change of land and return to the stream.

On the one hand, the Ming army still occupies part of Yunnan, and now Dali is still under the control of the Ming army led by the Ming Dynasty, and at the same time, Zhang Yue also sent troops from Sichuan to Yunnan to help in the war.

This Qianguo Mansion, which is commonly known as Mu Wangfu in the world, of course, King Mu is just a common name imposed on them by later generations, in fact, no one in the Mu family has never been crowned king during his lifetime, even if he was posthumously awarded, there are only Mu Ying and Mu Sheng, who were posthumously named King Qianning and King Dingyuan after their deaths.

In these years, if you let the Duke of Qianguo be called King Mu, you can scare him to death, this is a self-respecting name, and it is no different from rebellion.

In addition to chasing the crown, in the Ming Dynasty, non-royal families were not allowed to be crowned kings!

Well, the same is true of the Tang Dynasty!

Now that Qianguo Gong and Zhang Yue are in control of half of Yunnan, they are fighting back and forth with the Fourth Infantry Division, and in this kind of tug-of-war, the local toasts have fallen into bad luck.

Both sides are short of soldiers and food, and the supply is difficult, for military needs, it is natural to collect food and people on the spot, and often force the local Tusi to stand in line, and the slightest carelessness in standing in line will lead to the end of the family.

In addition, there is another problem in Yunnan, which is that the local population is too small!

Or more precisely, there are too few Han Chinese in the area.

Why can Guangxi and Guizhou change their land and return to the stream, and they were able to be controlled by the Ming Dynasty before, and now they are actually controlled by the Tang Dynasty, that is, the local Han population is very large, and at the same time, the local natives are also a large number of sinicization.

In fact, in recent years, the natives in Guizhou and Guangxi are no different from the local Han people.

Not enough, this situation is much worse in Yunnan.

It's very simple to solve this problem.,Immigration,Intermarriage,Sinicization,Well,It's basically a great integration of races!

Abolish their so-called traditional clothing, language, and even living habits, it won't take long to completely sinicize them, our ancestors have done this for thousands of years, and the effect is excellent!

Speaking of this item, I accidentally talked for more than ten minutes, and this was still reminded by the secretary outside, Li Xuan reacted, and immediately ended this meeting, and asked Feng Demin to stay and have lunch together.

The emperor's gift of food is naturally a great honor, Feng Demin immediately thanked him and then retired with a happy face.

Immediately, several ministers from the Imperial Study walked in one after another, starting the morning meeting that had been postponed for several hours today.

However, there are often no major matters in the routine morning meeting, and after they simply reported their recent work, Li Xuan ended this morning meeting, and then took a group of courtiers to lunch.

Giving food, this kind of thing Li Xuan often does, the cost is small, and the effect is large.

It's just a lunch together, and for Li Xuan, it's a matter of adding an extra pair of chopsticks, and he doesn't even have to waste his extra time, but this kind of thing is usually a reward for honor.

Even if the courtiers actually didn't eat much when they gave food, well, after all, no one dared to gobble it up in front of Li Xuan, most of them were symbolic food, but what they cared about was not these, but Li Xuan's attitude towards food.

After all, the people who can let Li Xuan give food are all civil and military ministers, and they can't get this honor without enough weight.

When eating, everyone pays attention to eating without saying anything, so the scene seems to be a little silent, but after dinner, when drinking tea and eating fruit later, they also chatted briefly.

However, at this time, whether it is Li Xuan or others, they often don't talk about any military affairs, and often talk about some small things in life.

Qian Mengjiu said that his son had just gotten married a few days ago, and sighed that time passed quickly, and a few years had passed in a blink of an eye, and his sons had grown up and become married.

Hearing the word marriage, Li Xuan suddenly remembered, it seems that his sister Princess Huichen is also fifteen years old this year, and according to people's concept of early marriage in these years, she should also start looking for her in-laws.

But Empress Dowager Bai doesn't seem to have said anything about Huichen's marriage, and I don't know if she has started looking for someone!
