Chapter 1041: Separation of powers
Qin Feng looked at Cheng Weigao with a smile, knowing in his heart what the person in front of him was thinking, but he pretended not to know, just looked at him with a smile. In fact, Cheng Weigao thought it well, he was indeed crossing the river and demolishing the bridge, but it was not enough to unload the mill and kill the donkey.
And the purpose of moving Cheng Weigao is indeed because Cheng Weigao's prestige in Yongping County is too high, so high that the people of Yongping County seem to only know this county guard, but not the emperor.
Yongping County is a relatively special place, under the leadership of this clever county guard, there is no war here, and there is no cruelty in the Ming army's purge of dissidents, so naturally there will not be much fear.
And Yongping County has always been extremely deferential after the founding of the Ming Dynasty, asking people to give people, asking for money to give money, and the policy of the imperial court is here, which can be regarded as progressing smoothly, and there is no excuse or opportunity for Qin Feng to find trouble.
But the Yongping County Guard still has to move.
Now that the imperial court has basically completed the complete control of all regions in the Ming Dynasty, and the local personnel power has been completely returned to the central government, some disobedient guys have basically been cleaned up, they are not Cheng Weigao, and they have no qualifications and merits to show off in front of Qin Feng.
Yongping County, now in the eyes of the imperial court, seems to be an outlier. Qin Feng knew that the first assistant Quan Yun Xingwen Yongping County was also polite as if he was discussing.
That's not going to work.
Cheng Weigao must be taken away, he can't let him stay in Yongping County, in Qin Feng's opinion, this can be regarded as the righteousness of the monarch and the minister, if he really wants to get it in the future, it is not beautiful, and it also hurts his reputation as a benevolent monarch.
Now is a good opportunity, the army is about to gather in Yongping County, Lu Dayuan is leaving with 10,000 people, Baoqing Camp is still here, there are not many options for Cheng Weigao, in Qin Feng's opinion, this cannot be regarded as a choice.
The tone is deliberative, but what is the difference between the words in the emperor's mouth and an order?
Cheng Weigao's mouth was a little bitter, but he quickly figured it out again, he has always been a smart person, he never thought of fighting with Qin Feng before, and now it is even more impossible.
The Ming regime has stabilized, and the imperial court's control over the local area is more than before, it is simply a heaven, an underground, and the center has probed their hands deeply into the grassroots village and township-level organizations in the locality, and they have really done it like an arm, and his Yongping, poking horizontally in the middle, is more conspicuous and conspicuous.
It's that he is too arrogant, he should have seen all this and took the initiative to bring it up, so that everyone would be better, and now that the emperor has brought it up, he is obviously already expressing his dissatisfaction to himself.
I have merit for the Ming Dynasty. At this point, Cheng Weigao is still very confident, as long as he promises the emperor to go to Yuejing to take up a post, even if it is a false position, but as long as he lives for a day, the emperor will never embarrass the Cheng family. If Lai doesn't leave in this position, it will be a disaster for the Cheng family.
The only thing I have to do in the future seems to be to eat and drink well, take care of my body, and live longer, which is the greatest contribution to the Cheng family.
After figuring out this section, the previous hesitations on his face have disappeared like a spring breeze blowing, and his face is full of joy, "The prosperity of Yuejing has been longing for a long time." It's just that in the past, he was busy with official affairs, and every time he was in a hurry, he went back in a hurry, and he could go to Yuejing to take up his post, which was what the old minister longed for, and everything was arranged by His Majesty, and the minister could go to Yuejing at any time to take up his new post. ”
When you talk to smart people, it's simple. And Cheng Weigao, there is no doubt that he is the most intelligent group of these smart people, in the blink of an eye, he can think clearly about the powerful relationship inside, and he shows his attitude without any nostalgia, which is equivalent to sending himself to Qin Feng in front of him white, and shouting loudly, Your Majesty, you are welcome.
Cheng Weigao was so refreshing, Qin Feng was a little embarrassed, he was indeed not very particular about his appearance. Of course, if you beat a stick, you have to give a date to be serious.
"I heard that Cheng Bin, the son of Ling, is a great talent, when the prince implemented the reform of official governance and implemented the system of scientific examination, Cheng Bin was the first batch to participate in the scientific examination, and he ranked first, and now he is making a county order in Wan County, right?"
"A dog is a great talent, and he is only a little smart, and he deserves to be praised by His Majesty." Cheng Weigao said modestly.
"Cheng County Shou can't be too humble, I know that today's Wan County, but Yongping County is the richest county governance, good public security, it can be said that the road is not left behind, and the night is not closed, such talents, looking at the Ming Dynasty, but there are not few, Cheng County Shou, I want Ling Gongzi to take the position of Yongping Deputy Shou, what do you think?" Qin Feng asked with a smile.
"Your Majesty, the dog only has the talent of a county, his mind is not on governing the place, it is Wanping, and the old minister forced him to go, let him be the deputy guard of Yongping, that is to make a mistake." Cheng Weigao himself has decided to leave, where is it sure that his son is still here, if Cheng Bin is allowed to be the deputy guard, there is no doubt that the future will be the source of trouble, I am afraid that the new county guard will be set up when he is established, and the lord will not take power for his son, and the officials below will also look at his son as the head of the horse, what is the difference between this and being the county guard, that is really causing trouble, I don't want to think about it at the moment, and I refused.
Qin Feng originally wanted to make a slow transition, he didn't want to be too ruthless all at once, Cheng Bin came to be this deputy guard, it was used to appease the hearts of the people of Yongping County, even though Cheng Bin was talented, but after all, he did not have the influence of his Lao Tzu, and the people below saw this situation, he was a smart person, and he would eventually realize that the emperor's intention had changed, but Cheng Weigao refused so quickly, it couldn't help but make Qin Feng think, is this guy ready to take care of himself?
His face sank unconsciously.
Cheng Weigao only glanced at it, and he had already guessed the emperor's thoughts.
"Your Majesty, the old minister actually wanted to ask His Majesty for an errand for his son for a long time, but he had always been thin-skinned and difficult to speak, but now he is bold." Cheng Weigao bent over.
"Where does he want to go? As long as you say it, I will not allow it. Qin Feng's tone was very light.
"Inuko has actually always wanted to go to the Commercial Department. He was not very interested in governing the place, but was very interested in business, and the minister wanted to ask His Majesty to let him be a deputy to the king. Cheng Weigao said.
Wang Yueyao's position in the court of the Commercial Department is equivalent to a household servant, and now Cheng Bin is just a county magistrate, and if he goes to Wang Yueyao as a deputy, it can be regarded as a solid promotion, which can be regarded as a super-move. However, when Qin Feng heard this, his face stretched out, he was not afraid that Cheng Weigao would not ask for an official, as long as he begged for it, Qin Feng would dare to give it.
Cheng Bin's idea is very unusual, although the Commercial Department has money, but many scholars just don't want to go anywhere? Wang Yueyao has been very annoyed, Cheng Bin is willing to go over, she must be overjoyed, so be it, let Cheng Bin finish the affairs in hand, and report to the Commercial Bureau! "Qin Feng said.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Seeing Qin Feng's appearance, Cheng Weigao knew that he had bet on the right treasure, which not only promoted his son several levels in a row, but also allowed the emperor to dispel his dissatisfaction with himself. Commercial Bureau, this is a good place, Cheng Weigao sees it very clearly, and the status of this department will inevitably become higher and higher in the future. His Majesty is not an ordinary fan of commerce, and it is true that commerce can bring more wealth to the country. As long as this policy continues, then with the prosperity of commerce in the future, the status of merchants will inevitably become higher and higher, and the commercial office that governs these merchants will have more and more weight in the imperial court.
"Dare to ask Your Majesty, when will the new county guard take office, and when will the minister start to hand over government affairs?"
Listening to Cheng Weigao's words, Qin Feng looked Cheng Weigao up and down: "Cheng Junshou, listening to what you mean, why do you want to go to Yuejing City early, not now, no matter how early it is, you have to wait until the Tiger Prison matter, now Yongping County is the base camp for us to strategize the Qin State, if you leave now, the new county guard will take office, and you will have to be blind immediately, you can't be sloppy with your current business just because you want to leave office!" ”
"How dare you!" Cheng Weigao smiled: "It's just that the minister is envious of the prosperity of Yuejing, and when he heard that he could go to retire, his heart was like a cat scratching, and he really didn't want to wait for a moment." However, although Your Majesty is relieved, if you don't finish the things in front of you, the minister will not worry about leaving! ”
"Pension?" Qin Feng shook his head, "Cheng Junshou, you still dispelled this thought, when you arrive in Yuejing City, you are only afraid of more things, how can you support your elderly?" Now you are the guardian of a county, in charge of a county, when you arrive in Yuejing, you can just look at the whole country, and your vision can no longer be limited to one region and one place! ”
Hearing Qin Feng's words, Cheng Weigao couldn't help but feel a little stupid, a little different from what he thought, but when he went to Yuejing, what seat could he sit in? It doesn't seem that there are any vacant seats, but also look at the whole country, this is a matter of Shousuke! Cheng Weigao knows very well that the position of first assistant, whether it is in the past, present, or future, cannot have its own affairs.
Qin Feng smiled and said, "I'm going to let you go to the political affairs hall." Now there are only three people in the political affairs hall, that is, Quan Yun, Jin Jingnan, and Fang Dazhi, and Jin Jingnan and Fang Dazhi are also concurrently serving as the imperial history and the secretary of the ministry, of course, this is just an expedient measure, and in the future, the people in the political affairs hall will no longer be concurrently serving in the affairs of the six ministries, but only in charge. ”
Cheng Weigao's eyelids jumped, his political literacy was not ordinarily high, and he immediately grasped the key point in Qin Feng's words. In the future, the government hall will be separated from specific affairs, and will only be responsible for supervision, that is to say, the people of the government hall will be above the six departments, and the government hall will be composed of many people, and the deepest meaning inside is the power of the head and the auxiliary.
If this is the case, then going to Yuejing by himself is really not a matter of putting it on hold, but really entrusting it with a heavy responsibility. Of course, after breaking away from Yongping County, he can only look forward to the emperor's horse head in the future.
