Volume 16 Chapter 21

Anyway, Chen Zilong is the governor of the three provinces, what is he excited about a prince and young master who is a second grade?

In fact, the governor, the governor, and even the superintendent and the governor are not permanent officials, but are all temporarily assigned by the emperor to deal with something, which is somewhat similar to the nature of the minister.

In the history of the Ming Dynasty, there were so many governors, governors, supervisors, and inspectors, so why did the emperor of the Ming Dynasty send so many ministers?

This is mainly due to the problem of the local bureaucracy in the Ming Dynasty, and the three local divisions, the political envoy department, the command envoy department, and the criminal envoy department are in charge of the administrative, military and criminal punishment of the provinces, and they have no subordinate relationship with each other.

With such a structure, it is fine when there is nothing to do in peacetime, but once there is a foreign invasion or peasant uprising, the opinions of the three divisions are often not unanimous, and everyone goes their own way, so it will delay things, so the imperial court has to send an official to coordinate, this official is the governor, whose authority is higher than that of the three divisions, and controls all local officials.

This governor is generally served by the squire of the military department, which means that his rank is not as high as that of the chief officer of the three divisions, but he is a messenger, so the three divisions have to listen to him.

But at that time in the Ming Dynasty, whether it was a foreign enemy or a peasant uprising, they were not afraid of a big incident, and generally spanned several provinces, so that the governor of a province could not manage it, and there was even a problem of several provincial governors pulling each other's skins.

There is also the kind of trouble that is particularly powerful, spanning the jurisdiction of several governors, and at this time, it is necessary to send a larger messenger to coordinate, and this messenger is the overseer.

It's a bit far, let's get down to business.

In fact, before Chen Zilong became the governor of the three provinces, he was only the prefect of the fourth grade, and it stands to reason that he is not qualified to be the governor, but he is not the governor of the three northwestern provinces to fight, but to deal with the problem of grain planting in arid areas, and he is still from the top of the family, coupled with Zhu Cijiong's strong advocacy, he became the governor.

According to the regulations, whether it is the governor or the governor, after dealing with the things assigned by the emperor, he must return to Beijing to resume his life, that is to say, after he resigned from the position of governor of the three provinces, the grade is still the fourth grade.

Of course, if the things given by the emperor are handled beautifully, they will generally be promoted after returning to Beijing.

Chen Zilong has been in charge of the northwest for several years, and has indeed done a very good job, directly turning a disaster area with almost no harvest into a big granary with blue waves, although this has a certain relationship with the gradual easing of the drought in the northwest, but it is mainly the result of his vigorous promotion of drought-tolerant crops and continuous construction of water conservancy.

He thought that after returning to Beijing to restore his life, the squire who could be promoted to the third rank would be in the sky, but he never thought that the emperor would directly mention him to the prince and young master of the second grade, could he not be excited?

As for the investigation of the queen mother of the two palaces, with his handsome appearance, elegant temperament and good conversation, these two naturally have no opinion on him as the young master of the crown prince.

The matter of Zhan Shifu was also a piece of cake for Chen Zilong, who had served as the prefect of Fengtian and the governor of the three northwestern provinces.

In short, everyone is happy, and Zhu Cijiong doesn't have to worry about children's education.

The next thing is the question of the establishment of the Ministry of Education and the Ministry of Commerce, and the Ministry of Education does not need Zhu Cijiong to worry about it, Huang Daozhou's enthusiasm for education is simply to the point of obsession.

As soon as he took office, he recruited talents everywhere, left and right squires, enlightenment, skills, imperial examinations, universities, and sinology of the five Qing officials of the Lang Lang, and even including the foreign officials and directors of each Qing official department, he personally selected them one by one.

For a time, the yamen of various ministries in the capital were made by him, and people were panicked, but he was eager to seek talents and didn't care about it.

After more than a month of investigation, a full list of officials at all levels of the Ministry of Education was handed over to Zhu Cijiong's case.

Zhu Cijiong has no opinion on this list, but the bigwigs of various ministries have a lot of complaints about this naked behavior of digging up the wall, and we don't need people in your yamen, should you dig it up?

Therefore, the next morning, when the list was announced, the bigwigs of the various yamen quit and had the posture of uniting to besiege Huang Daozhou and condemn the immoral behavior of this goods.

Tongue war, this is Huang Daozhou's strong point, this thing is crazy and even dares to stand up to the emperor's words, not to mention these yamen bigwigs who are at the same level as him.

The scene of the early dynasty was lively, and the first to attack was Xu Guangqi, the secretary of the Cabinet First Auxiliary Rite Department, who also had a lot of complaints about the behavior of blatantly digging the foot of the wall, because the left waiter selected by this goods was Fan Jingwen, the right waiter of the Ministry of Rites!

As soon as the ceremonial official finished reading the list, Xu Guangqi coughed, saluted Zhu Cijiong, and then said solemnly: "Lord Huang, you just transferred Mengzhang away, what should I do about the affairs of the Ministry of Rites, now that every yamen is short of people, can't you find a way from the local level?" “

Xu Guangqi is the emperor's teacher, and he is highly respected, Huang Daozhou didn't dare to go too far, he walked quickly to the carpet under the steps, knelt down and saluted Zhu Cijiong, then straightened up, and arched his hand to Xu Guangqi and said: "Lord Shoufu, there are many functions of the Ministry of Education that come out of the ritual part, Mengzhang is very familiar with these, and transferring him over to be responsible can ensure that the work is carried out as soon as possible, this request is not too much, right?" “

Xu Guangqi was stunned when he heard this, and he couldn't say anything below, he looked at the emperor and saw that the emperor didn't mean to speak, so he had to retreat gorgeously.

Immediately afterwards, Bi Maokang, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, coughed again, walked quickly to Huang Daozhou's side, knelt down and saluted, and then straightened up and said to Huang Daozhou: "Lord Huang, our Ministry of Industry has nothing to do with your education, right?" You directly transfer Fu Zhai away, what about the project he is responsible for? “

Bi Maokang had to stand up and speak, because the right waiter selected by this goods was Xu Fuyuan, the waiter of the Ministry of Works, didn't this delay people from studying wired telephones.

When Huang Daozhou heard this, his neck stiffened, and he said directly: "Master Bi, you can't say that, what is education and the Ministry of Industry have little to do with it?" Many universities in the capital are under the name of your Ministry of Industry, how can you let me take it when you stuff it this time? And the current education is not only about the imperial examination, but also about skills, I don't understand those things, how can I do it without finding someone to be in charge? Besides, Fu Zhai is just an idle squire in the Ministry of Works, isn't it good for me to transfer him to grasp the real power, you won't block the ladder of advancement of your subordinates, right? “

When Bi Maokang heard this, he spurted blood at the wrong point, and asked Xu Fuyuan to hang up an idle squire mainly to facilitate his research, what is blocking the ladder of advancement of his subordinates, this is what the emperor meant, okay, he had to raise his eyes and ask the emperor for help.

Zhu Cijiong is embarrassed, he proposed to add the yamen, and now there is a fierce man doing it here, which is a good thing, how can he stop it!

Therefore, he could only pretend not to see it and let Huang Daozhou play.

At this time, Huang Daozhou turned on his full horsepower, and he sprayed wildly, and all the yamen bigwigs were speechless by him.

What kind of country is people-oriented, education is the foundation of the people; What kind of education is a millennium plan, you know a fart!

The Zodiac Zhou sprayed a shuang, the foaming stars splashed out, the heroes retreated, and in the end, an official didn't pull it down, and he grabbed it!
