Chapter 662: Supervising the Confluence
In all provinces of the world, there are a total of 21 people who patrol the imperial history, including three people in the south and two in the north, one person in Xuanda, Liaodong and Gansu, and one person in each of the remaining thirteen political secretaries. And most of the inspectors came with the psychology of finding fault and picking thorns because of their mission, so the relationship with the local governor and even the magistrate was not so harmonious. Of course, the imperial court has always been preventing this kind of harmony, otherwise wouldn't it mean that the officials of the entire province are in collusion?
Therefore, just as Zhang Xueyan, the governor of Liaodong, and Liu Tai, the former governor of Liaodong, were very incompatible, even to the point of life and death, the relationship between Ling Yunyi, the governor of Liangguang and the former governor of Guangdong, was also extremely incompatible. One of the reasons is because Ling Yunyi thinks that the other party is a hairy boy who has not dried up for less than thirty, but now one has been transferred back, and the one who has just been transferred is even younger!
Even so, at this time, Ling Yunyi had to laugh dryly in the face of Wang Fulin's salute: "No courtesy, I was in the same department as Brother Nan Ming back then, but I didn't expect to be an official in the same place with his nephew now, this fate is really ingenious." Virtuous nephew, you are actually a first-time official who patrols the imperial history, and it is true that the young phoenix is clear in the voice of the old phoenix, and the future is limitless! ”
Saying this, Ling Yunyi himself knew that the kindness he released was not aimed at Wang Daokun at all, or even at Tan Lun, who Wang Daokun had made friends with, but completely at Zhang Juzheng, the first assistant of the dynasty. He didn't believe that if it wasn't for Zhang Juzheng's approval, how could such an outrageous appointment be passed! Of course, compared to the previous predecessor who had not come to visit him after taking up his new position, and the stinky and hard imperial history, Wang Fulin rushed to Zhaoqing to see him at the beginning of his tenure after all. Much more informed than his predecessor, at least on the surface.
People are polite, of course, Wang Fulin also reciprocated the favor, and after sitting down, he couldn't help but smile and humble: "The prestige of the Taiwan system is famous, I have heard my uncle mention it before, but I have always been on the side, but I didn't expect to be able to be an official under the command of the Taiwan system this time." It's really an honor......" He opened his mouth to come, and then he flattered Ling Yunyi again and again, giving Ling Yunyi a bunch of high hats. Of course, he knew all about the official experience of the governor of Liangguang from Wang Daokun's letter, but under his ingenious interpretation, it became as if he really admired Ling Yunyi.
Even Ling Yunyi, who was far away in Liangguang, had heard of some of Wang Fulin's glorious deeds, of course, he didn't know much about those little things. But the shock caused in Liaodong, and the ignition of the powder keg of the Great Purge of the Metropolitan Procuratorate in Jingshi, he is still very clear. Therefore, Wang Fulin is not like those fledgling stunned youths, who go on a rampage as soon as they come up, but responds to the kindness he releases, and he is naturally very satisfied with his flattery. When this time there is no nutrition. After the initial contact that was purely a temptation to each other, he had a position for Wang Fulin in his heart.
It should be the knife that the bigwigs used to hold in their hands. A young man who had just turned twenty. How capable can it be? Before, he must have done things according to Wang Daokun's uncle's explanation. When he was as old as himself, he hadn't been admitted to the exam, where did he know what was sinister in the world, Wang Fulin should just be lucky in the field!
If Wang Fulin knew, just because of these temptations to play Tai Chi just now, Ling Yunyi would measure him by himself at the same age. He definitely wouldn't have any ideas. After all, most of the time, the Inspector and the Governor are working against each other, and he is certainly happy to see him reduce his importance and threat in the eyes of his opponents. As for lowering your figure in front of Ling Yunyi, what is it? Anyway, as long as you don't have to be a kowtow bug. Say a few words that are soft or even flattering, and he has no psychological burden at all.
Although Yin Zhengmao had been using troops during his tenure as governor of Liangguang, Yin Zhengmao's initial task was mainly to extinguish the rebellion of Wei Yinbao and other servants in Guangxi, which was later called the Zhuang people, and to deal with the remnants of the Japanese who fled from Fujian to Guangdong. After all, these Yao people, who are located on the border between Guangxi and Guangzhou, hide in the mountains at every turn, the so-called officials have 10,000 soldiers, I have 10,000 mountains, the soldiers come and I go, and the soldiers go and I come, which makes the officers and soldiers have a headache to the extreme.
Therefore, it was not until he completely withdrew his hand, starting from the second year of Wanli, that Yin Zhengmao began to formulate a plan to encircle and suppress Luo Pan Mountain, but he had a close relationship with Zhang Juzheng, because of the vacancy of the Nanjing Hubu Shangshu, he was immediately transferred to fill this vacancy, and the burden of the governor of Liangguang and the extinguishing of the Luo Pan Mountain Yao Rebellion fell on the head of his successor Ling Yunyi.
Because of this, Ling Yunyi, who had not been in office for less than a year, first rectified the soldiers and horses of Liangguang, reduced the guest soldiers one by one, and at the same time transferred troops and dispatched generals, preparing to completely encircle and suppress Luopanshan. It must be known that the Yao Rebellion in Luobian Mountain has a long history, and it is not inferior to the famous Datengxia Yao Rebellion. In the end of the Ming Dynasty, the Yao Rebellion has always been one of the largest military affairs in Liangguang. During the period of filial piety, the elder Qiu Jun once used a short number to describe the ferocity of the Yao Rebellion - the six broken people of the ten mansions in Guangdong! At the most exaggerated time, the two Guang guards were all punished because of the delay in the Yao chaos. Therefore, although Ling Yunyi is conceited, he will not ignore this Yao Chao that has continued from his predecessor to himself.
You know, because of the more and more frequent Yao riots in western Guangdong, the Han people in Lushui County even fled, and the Yao people took the opportunity to occupy a large territory, in order to cope with this situation, during the Jiajing period, the Liangguang Governor's Mansion originally located in Wuzhou, Guangxi, has now also moved to Zhaoqing Mansion adjacent to Lushui County. After all, Gaoyao County, where Zhaoqing Prefecture is located, is only about 150 miles away from Guangzhou City, and less than 200 miles away from Lushui County, and Lushui County is further west of Guangxi, which is the central location of controlling Guangzhou. The Guangdong General Army, on the other hand, was stationed in Chaozhou Prefecture and was more often responsible for coastal defense than for preventing internal rebellions.
After making initial contact with Wang Fulin, Ling Yunyi got up and walked to the map in the study, and took the trouble to explain his strategic deployment to the new Guangdong Governor Imperial Shi one by one. For this kind of thing outside his own specialty, of course, Wang Fulin will not point fingers, but listen carefully, and at the same time keep it in mind - this governor of Liangguang will go to such great lengths to talk to him, needless to say, it is definitely not because of his humble position as the governor of Guangdong, but because he is expected to report these reports to Zhang Juzheng and to the military department. Who made all the chief and deputy officers of the military department his elders?
I have to say that the Jinshi of this subject in the twenty-sixth year of Jiajing is really a strong lineup!
From the military deployment revealed by Ling Yunyi, Wang Fulin learned that the governor of Liangguang planned to wait until the rebellious Yao people were completely wiped out, and then send additional defensive troops in Lushui County, and at the same time upgrade this place to Zhili Prefecture. He raised his eyebrows, realizing that this point needed to be focused on in the report to the imperial court, and after thinking about it, he echoed: "The promotion of Takishui County to Zhili Prefecture is indeed the best way to prevent the slightest problem after the success of the eradication. It's just that there is a way that is both grace and power, if I guessed correctly, the production must have already thought about how to give grace? ”
Ling Yunyi seemed to have been scratched on an itch, and a smile suddenly appeared on his face: "Yes, Yaomin is poor." In the past, there were corrupt officials and corrupt officials who expropriated and extorted money, and some of them just used it as an excuse to respond to every call. I plan to write a letter to abolish the tax customs originally set up in Lushui County, so that the Yao people can directly transport timber from the mountains to Zhaoqing Mansion by water to sell it, and then set up another tax customs on the riverside of Duanzhou City. In this Zhaoqing Mansion, under the nose of the Governor of Liangguang, I expect that some insatiable people will not dare to be too rampant! By the way, I plan to let Song Yaowu, the prefect of Huizhou, assist in military affairs, after all. Before he was appointed as a judge in Nanxiong Mansion, he had handled boats, ships, food, salaries, soldiers, etc., which was very secure. ”
Wang Fulin had just taken office and came to see Ling Yunyi. For these officials in Guangdong, they know a name, how do you know where Song Yaowu is sacred? However, from Ling Yunyi's words, he still obtained very important information. How long has it been since Ling Yunyi took office? Being able to take office at the beginning of his tenure was just a general judgment of Nanxiong Mansion, but now he is already the prefect of Huizhou, needless to say, Song Yaowu must be the person recommended by Ling Yunyi.
"Everyone knows that Taiwan has a discerning eye. As for this act of benevolence to the people, it is even more wonderful. "What Wang Fulin hopes most is that Ling Yunyi thinks everything through, and the candidate for this assistant military affairs also uses his own people, just so that Song Yaowu, the very trusted prefect of Huizhou, will levy military salaries, so that he can share his hands. You don't have to worry about anything, just save worry and effort. However, just when he was thinking about it like this, he didn't expect Ling Yunyi to suddenly speak: "Do you know where the guest soldiers from Liangguang came from?" ”
The so-called guest soldiers refer to soldiers and horses who are transferred from other places and are not from their native origin. Regarding the guest soldiers under the jurisdiction of the Governor of Liangguang, Wang Fulin groaned slightly, and said thoughtfully: "Back then, General Yu once guarded Guangdong, could it be the Zhejiang army?" ”
"Not bad. Qi Jiguang brought out the Yiwu soldiers are good at fighting, the imperial court will use Yiwu soldiers from south to north, everywhere is used, I admit that the Yiwu soldiers are indeed brave and good at fighting, but the guest soldiers come from afar, and the food and salary are more expensive than the local soldiers, plus the family is not there, and the Yao chaos is not to fight the Japanese invaders, for them can not talk about protecting the family and defending the country, what does it have to do with them, it is inevitable that it is a little slack. Over the years, the guest soldiers have consumed countless military salaries, so I have already gone to the imperial court to abolish them. ”
Speaking of this, Ling Yunyi suddenly changed his words and said, "Even so, in Zhaoqing Mansion alone, the annual military expenditure for raising troops has reached an additional 20,000 taels. With the use of troops this time, I am afraid that it will have to be redoubled, and it will be difficult for a small Zhaoqing Mansion to bear. I have heard that you are young but you have the name of the God of Wealth, and you have to bear a lot of responsibility for this military pay. At the end of the year, although the imperial court allocated some of the troops, more of them still had to be raised locally in Guangdong. I expect that this battle will be fought for at least three or four months, and that by the end of August, when the summer tax is paid, the additional military expenses and grain and grass will also be in place. ”
Bullshit's grasp, my Shifu patrol press was originally driven to the shelves! Wang Daokun even mentioned military spending in a private message, it seems that he really can't hide it!
Wang Fulin secretly scolded the big man in the DPRK and China as long as he moved his mouth, but he wanted to break his leg, and he didn't mean to take care of it at all, and said very insincerely: "I'll do my best." ”
Ling Yunyi also knew that this matter was extraordinary, and it was not good to rush too hard, and he was about to say that he would send Song Yaowu, the prefect of Huizhou, to handle it together, but he didn't want Wang Fulin to divert the topic all of a sudden.
"Does Ling Zhitai know about the Haojing in Xiangshan County?"
Although he was a little dissatisfied with Wang Fulin's nonsense, for the sake of Zhang Juzheng and Wang Daokun's face, Ling Yunyi still didn't get angry, but just nodded lightly: "This is the number one key point in eastern Guangdong." But the next moment, he heard something that made him a little incredulous.
"When it comes to raising salaries, if I can use a little trick in Haojing, I don't know if the production station may accept it?"
Since Ling Yunyi took office, most of his energy has been focused on the Yao chaos in Luo Panshan, but it is still very important to pay attention to the small Hao Jing, after all, most of the officials in Guangdong come from this. Therefore, he couldn't help frowning and said: "Young people don't just think about making a blockbuster, how can it be easily touched by the fact that the mirror is extremely involved?" ”
"What if I use some small means without changing the mirror?"
Although Wang Fulin smiled calmly, Ling Yunyi had been an official for many years after all, but he would not be careless, and asked bluntly at the moment: "What do you want to do?" ”
"I know that there are many yamen in Guangdong, including Haojing, and I wonder if I can consult them for five days? Five days later, I will tell you about my plan. Wang Fulin saw that Ling Yunyi's frowning brows did not show the slightest sign of relaxation, so he arched his hand very casually and said, "After all, I received the appointment suddenly and came to Guangdong in a hurry, and I am not familiar with the up and down at all. If you want to shoulder the heavy responsibility given by Taiwan, you have to know yourself and the enemy, and ask Taiwan to be completed. ”
Thinking that Wang Fulin's first impression of himself today was quite good, his speech and demeanor were much more comfortable than the stinky and hard patrol imperial history before, coupled with the tough backstage behind it, Ling Yunyi hesitated for a long time, and finally decided to nod. After all, this is not a big deal worth refusing in his eyes, but he is still a little curious about the sentence that Wang Fulin suddenly threw out just now.
So, for the next five days, Wang Fulin stayed in the Liangguang Governor's Mansion from beginning to end. When such news was transmitted back to Guangzhou City, it immediately caused an uproar in the major yamen, especially the political secretary who was under the greatest pressure. Who doesn't know that once the governor and the governor are in collusion, it means that all the officials in Guangdong, big and small, must bow down to their ears, otherwise, the result of the joint efforts of the governor and the constitution will be the fall of that official. Because he wanted to find out what Wang Fulin was doing in the governor's mansion, Gaoyao County, where Zhaoqing Prefecture was located, always ran horses and messengers on the official road to Guangzhou City.
When the people in Guangzhou finally learned that Wang Fulin was soaked in the library, on this day, Wang Fulin finally appeared in Ling Yunyi's study again, as for what was discussed, only the two parties themselves knew, and no one else knew. It's just that Wang Fulin's eyebrows fluttered and he left the Governor's Palace, but it gave outsiders infinite reverie.
PS: Speaking of Lingyunyi, the name Allah horn...... Today will make up for the previous slack ^_^ (to be continued.) )
