"This time there is not much to get rid of, just two hands." Zhang Qi said with a smile.

Zhang Anguo picked up the information in his hand and answered Han Gang's question, "Zhongmu Zhixian in Kaifeng, Xiangzhou Zhizhou in western Beijing, Mingzhou Zhizhou in Liangzhejiang Road, and Hangzhou Tongju ......"

Han Gang listened attentively. These official ques read out by Zhang Anguo are no different from the catalogue he received.

Outside the gate of Liunequan, which determines the selection of civil officials, there is the so-called Que Pavilion. However, if there is an official in the state and county declaration office, Liu Neiquan will publish the list, which is to prevent the treacherous officials from selling the official que. And the official directory in the hands of the Zai Fu records the amount of the que. Every day, it will be sent to the hands of all Zaisuke, and they will make arrangements, which is also known as the dofu.

Except for the office, it is a position that needs to be directly granted by the government affairs hall. If it is only the governor of the prefecture and the county, it should be handed over to the Eastern Court of the Inquisitor to draw up the candidates. However, since the founding of the country, the more important positions of governor, general judge, and county governor have been directly controlled by the political affairs hall, and who is arranged to take office has to be determined by the Zaifu at that time.

As time passed, the scope of the church became larger. Every prime minister consciously or unconsciously interferes with the work of the Eastern Court of Judges, or its predecessor, the Court of Judges. When these interventions are successful, they often become customized, and from then on the position becomes the property of the government office - and with the relationship between the government affairs hall and the inquisitor's superiors and subordinates, Zaisuke wants to reach out, and there are few examples of failure to succeed.

Nowadays, on average, every day, there are five to ten prefecture and county officials close to the people, or subordinate officials of the Luzhong Supervision Division, or the chief officials of the Beijing Hundred Divisions, which need to be decided by the Zaifu.

Han Gang spent half a night yesterday memorizing the scope of the Tang Division. Probably almost all Wangxian counties, above Shangzhou, are all within the scope of Tang Division.

And in the hands of the Zai Fu, there is also a list of officials who are currently waiting in the capital.

It's just that they don't need to be arranged according to the list of officials waiting for the Que, those who are in office and have a backstage are often dissatisfied with their appointments and can be transferred, while officials without a backstage are common to stay in the capital for two or three months.

Generally speaking, when the Zaifu appointed these officials, they would present them to the Son of Heaven every five days.

"Yukun...... Do you have a good candidate? ”

After Zhang Anguo finished reading, Zhang Qi asked Han Gang.

Han Gang took a sip of tea soup and said, "Han Gang first entered the middle school, and the wise men in the court only knew one or two. In the past, he only served in Guanxi, Lingwai, Jingxi, Hedong and other places, and he had some understanding of the officials and officials of this road, and he had a little experience in the prefectures and counties of the Qing Province, but he was not very familiar with other places. ”

Hearing this, Zhang Qi glanced at Han Jiang, with a slight smile on his face.

They are not afraid that Han Gang will mention conditions, but they are afraid that Han Gang will not mention them. With his status in the heart of the Queen Mother, if he has to grab any position, it will be a headache. Wang Anshi was able to use a new entry to participate in political affairs, forcing the rest of the political hall to have nowhere to stand, precisely because of Zhao Ji's wholehearted trust at that time.

"Except for Jingxi, all of them are important border places, and there is an urgent need for virtuous people who are both civil and military to govern the prefectures and counties." Zhang Qi looked at Han Jiang and sighed with a smile: "Except for Yukun, I really can't think of anyone who can measure such talents. ”

Han Jiang smiled bitterly and shook his head, quite helpless, "...... Yukun presided over the work in western Beijing, and traveled from south to north, and when it comes to local geography, we are not as good as Yukun. ”

Zhang Qi's smile did not change, "Xianggong Zihua is right, it is indeed inferior to Yukun." ”

Han Gang nodded and said with a smile: "Xianggong Zihua and Brother Di Ming have praised it. Other places, but you have to bother the two of you. ”

As far as Han Gang knows, for more than a year, most of the candidate lists for Tang Gang have been drawn up by Cai Qu and Zeng Bu first, and then discussed with Han Jiang and Zhang Qi, and submitted them to the Empress Dowager Xiang. However, it is said that the Empress Dowager Xiang has plans to change this, and there are some rumors in the palace, which may be the main reason why Cai did decide to rebel...... At least one of them.

Now that Cai Qu and Zeng Bu have failed, Zhang Qi definitely wants to take advantage of this opportunity to expand his scope of power. The Lingshou Han family has been hairpins for generations, and Han Jiang also has relatives and friends and relatives and friends of relatives and friends, as well as their children who need to be arranged.

Han Gang wants to fight with them, and he will not be in a hurry at this time. As Han Gang said to Han Jiang, he knows too little about the officials of the DPRK and China, and he does not have many regions, so it is difficult to select suitable candidates for positions that cover all over the world. In case of inappropriate appointment, Han Gang must be jointly and severally liable. Han Gang didn't want to be fined copper every once in a while, money was a trivial matter, but it was too embarrassing, and it would also damage his prestige.

In Han Gang's opinion, instead of only licking the flatbread, it is better to cut a piece of it first and occupy it exclusively.

Zhang Anguoquan didn't hear the conversation of several Zaifu.

The normal division of power between the chief and the auxiliary will not be so naked, and generally in the personnel arrangement, through constant proposals, arguments, and compromises made by officials everywhere, and finally delineate the scope of their respective rights - it is tacit, not explicit.

And Han Gang directly made his words clear, which did save a lot of time and misunderstanding, but it was too straightforward, like the temper of a martial artist. An old-fashioned person like Han Jiang is obviously not used to it, but Zhang Qi, after reacting, he didn't forget to bargain.

Han Gang advanced into the Zhongshu Gate through the court, and with the support of the Queen Mother, he looked aggressive. Now Han Gang is only asking for a few corner lots—Jingxi is also an add-on—but it's actually a concession. His request was proportional to the number of votes he received, almost a quarter.

Han Jiang has a thick personality, and Han Gang also gives Han Jiang a little more respect, which is the reward he deserves. In the past, the government affairs in the political hall were mostly determined by Cai Qu, and now it is also appropriate to make Han Jiang feel comfortable - how long can he stay in the political hall?

But in the final analysis, it is still Han Gang who has no background in the political hall, if he accepted Han Jiang's recommendation and served as the official secretary of the fifth room of the Zhongshu, it would be much more convenient to be familiar with the Zhongshu door. At least you can lay a foundation among those hall officials and hall officials, and if you have a foundation below, you won't be blinded in doing things. However, with the situation of that year, Han Gang refused to write the book and was appointed as the commander of the armament, which was the most favorable choice for him.

Of course, at this stage, there is no need for Han Gang to compete with Han Jiang and Zhang Qi for more positions. He didn't have that many people to arrange, and it was useless to fight for it. What we have to do now is to play steadily and steadily, and it is enough to grasp a few key positions.

Among them, the Weapons Supervisor is the place where Han Gang must take it.

That was Wang Juqing's position.

From what Han Gang had known about Wang Juqing's consistent performance, he should be very suitable for this position. Even if Wang Juqing is incompetent, Han Gang has enough foundation in the ordnance superintendent to enable the ordnance superintendent to operate stably.

Moreover, Wang Juqing is a waiter, and the target is the weapons supervisor, so it will be easier for Han Gang to get this position.

The appointment and dismissal of officials below the level of secretary and supervisor are within the purview of the political affairs hall. But when it comes to the position of the servant system and the officials above the servant, that is the authority of the Son of Heaven, and the Zaifu only has the right to suggest. It's just that the arrangement of the Son of Heaven is inappropriate, and the Zaifu can also express their opposition, and when the time comes, it will depend on which of the emperor and Zaifu can't hold on and back down first.

In terms of status, the ordnance supervisor belongs to the level of secretary and supervisor, and the chief assistants can be directly appointed and reported afterwards. However, due to the special status of this yamen in the court, the successive judges and prisoners have all been ordered by the Son of Heaven, which has become a story, and it is often held by the attendants, and the zaifu only have the right to recommend.

It is very simple to convince the Queen Mother, and in addition, it is enough to talk to Han Jiang and Zhang Qi. The two did not object, and they had the support of the Queen Mother, even if Wang Anshi wanted to oppose it, he couldn't do anything.

The only thing worth worrying about is what kind of black history Wang Juqing has revealed. If he made a big mistake in the past and revealed it, Han Gang wouldn't be able to save him.

Han Gang didn't believe that Wang Juqing didn't prepare at all before stabbing Lu Jia in the back.

But if you don't do something, you won't make mistakes. This is a common problem in all eras. The more complicated the affairs of the yamen, the more likely it is to have accidents. The clearer the yamen, the less likely it is to make mistakes.

The school managers, reviewers, editors, and school books in the Chongwen Academy of the Third Hall will never have an accident, and because they are in a place where talents are stored, they are often promoted very quickly. And the officials in the three divisions and yamen often find it difficult to retreat. Even if you are a nobleman, you will be fined a few catties of copper from time to time.

Thinking of this, Han Gang remembered Sima Guang's discussion about the diversion of the Yellow River back then. Lü Gong's opposition to the appointment of Sima Guang is too typical: "The imperial court sent Guangguang to treat the directors of the government, not so to praise the close post and treat the Confucian ministers. ”

Because it is too typical, Han Gang will think of this incident as soon as he thinks of the difference between doing practical things and speaking. If he also writes private notes in the future to record some experiences in the court, Han Gang will not forget to record this one.

Wang Juqing has achieved the service system by doing practical things, and the mistakes he has made will only be more than others, not less than others.

Han Gang was not worried that he would be exposed before recommending Wang Juqing to be the judge of the weapons superintendent, but only worried that after Wang Juqing took office, he would be exposed.

At that time, it was another mess.

From this point of view, Yushi Taizhong needs to arrange a person. It is not difficult to do this by being Shen Kuo of the Hanlin Bachelor. There is no need for integrity, only for obedience. I don't want him to be able to attack anyone, as long as it exists in the Imperial Tower, it is far more deterrent than attacking directly.

At least it can make people want to attack Wang Juqing when they can throw a mouse bogey.

In addition to Wang Juqing, Han Gang also has other worries, whether Huang Sheng can pass the subject exam is also a thing to consider.

If it was just a place for him, it would be nice to say. But after all, this is a level higher than the Jinshi department, also known as the big science examination, since the founding of the country, there are not more than 50 people who can pass. Brush off the yellow clothes, no one can say no.

However, at the Zaifu meeting, there was not much time for Han Gang to think about the problem, and there was also the latest personnel adjustment list that Quan Cao Si was selected to submit.

Han Jiang pressed the list in his hand and said to Han Gang: "It's already spring, and the snow in the Western Regions is about to start melting." The formation of the Protectorate of the Western Regions cannot be delayed any longer. ”
