Chapter 306: The Prefect of the Outer Exile (Second Update)

The officials of the Ming Dynasty are noble, and the local officials are cheap, so there is often a situation where the local officials are transferred to the Beijing division and the quality is reduced. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info but even so, there are still countless people who squeeze into Beijing under the pretext of breaking their heads.

The reason for this is that Beijing officials have a future.

Now Xie Shen is doing a good job in the Hanlin Academy, and he is also familiar with the little prince.

Under these circumstances, His Majesty the Emperor actually wanted to release him.

Xie Pi naturally couldn't change anything, just hoping that Xie Shen could be mentally prepared in advance. If you want to argue with reason, you can also go to the book and struggle. Although this won't have much of an impact on the results.

As soon as Xie Pi arrived at the Hanlin Courtyard with his front foot, the eunuch who delivered the decree followed with his hind foot.

This time, it was Gu Dayong who delivered the message.

He had a good relationship with Xie Shen, and as soon as he entered the official office, he said with a smile: "Congratulations to Lord Xie." ”

Xie Shen's heart was a mess. This Hongzhi Emperor is too uninteresting, and he doesn't even give him time to think of a way to deal with it, how can this be good.

Although he slandered a few words in his heart, he still had to accept the order.

Otherwise, in front of so many colleagues, it would be too unjust to be accused of having a fatherless father.

After a few words of greeting with Gu Dayong, Xie Shen knelt down to accept the order.

Xie Shen had already known the content of the holy decree in advance, so naturally he didn't show too much surprise.

Gu Da sighed with a sigh: "Lord Xie is young, and he released the Sipin Prefect, which is really promising." ”

It has been some years since Gonggong Gu entered the palace, and he has never seen a seventeen-year-old who has become a fourth-rank official, and Xie Shen's promotion speed is definitely beyond the reach of others.

Shanxi Provincial Government Secretary Lu'an Prefecture Prefect, His Majesty the Emperor directly pointed out the position to Xie Shen, which means that there is no room for negotiation in this matter.

Although Xie Shen was very helpless in his heart, he also knew that going to the book at this time was purely to find himself unhappy.

"I'm afraid this matter has something to do with the earthquake in Tunliu County, right?"

Xie Shen asked tentatively, but Gu Dayong said with a smile: "Our family doesn't know about this." ”

Xie Shen was helpless, so he had to ask, "Your Majesty can set a time limit for leaving?" ”

Gu Dayong shook his head and said, "The emperor didn't say it, but Lord Xie still has the better as soon as possible." ”

The words of the Son of Heaven sometimes have to be listened to squarely and sometimes reversed, and it is obvious that they should be listened to right now......

Xie Shen nodded and said, "The official will go to the Ministry of Officials to go through the delivery procedures in a while." ”

After sending Gu Dayong away, Xie Shen said quietly: "If there is no accident here, I think I will have to stay in Shanxi for three years, it is really unpredictable." ”

Hearing this, Xie Pi also felt a little sorry for Xie Shen.

The position of the waiter in the East Palace is indescribable, Xie Shen has served as the right Chunfang right Zanshan for half a year, and the relationship between him and the little prince is gradually getting better. At this time, he was transferred to Lu'an Mansion, Shanxi, and he would probably be a little lonely, right?

Xie Shen also knew that this appointment was not unrelated to the earthquake in Tunliu, Shanxi not long ago.

Earthquakes occurred all over the country, but the most severe ones were kept.

In this case, it is natural to find a person who is responsible, and it is impossible for the emperor to take the blame, and the former prefect of Lu'an Mansion naturally accepted it on behalf of the monarch and became a man of the blame.

Of course, the Son of Heaven can't be too ugly, his old man just transferred his predecessor Qiu Yong, the prefect of Lu'an, at the same level, and did not pick Qiu Yong's black gauze hat.

From the six-grade Hanlin cultivation to the prefect of the four-grade system, at first glance, it seems to have been promoted four levels in a row, which is enviable. But Xie Shen was really not happy.

First, it is true that local officials are not as easy to be promoted as Beijing officials, especially Hanlin cichens, and secondly, this place of exile is really not very good.

If it's a nearby place, it's just that. That Lu'an Mansion is a place of right and wrong.

A strong earthquake has just occurred, and it is estimated that the yamen of the houses have collapsed, collapsed, and are in a situation where all kinds of ruins are waiting to be rebuilt.

At this time, when I went to Lu'an Mansion to work, I took a hot potato.

If we can deal with all the matters after the earthquake and lead the people of Lu'an, especially the people in Tunliu, to a better new life, it will naturally be a great achievement. But if you don't handle it properly, you will be grabbed and bitten hard.

After all, Xie Shen's career is too smooth, and it is inevitable that some people will have pink eye, and they are always looking forward to Xie Shen's mistakes.

Xie Pi comforted Xie Shen and said, "Brother Shen, don't be too pessimistic, maybe Your Majesty will transfer you back to Beijing in a year and a half." ”

"Thunder, rain and dew, all are Jun'en."

Xie Shen smiled and did not answer directly.

It is also possible that the magistrate will be transferred back to the capital before the expiration of his term, but that is for the gilding of the outgoing. It is the privilege of Jane's courtiers in the true sense of the word. Xie Shen didn't dare to guarantee that he was among them.

In addition, some time ago, in order to gain prestige, he bluntly impeached Shouning Hou and Yang Peng, which probably made Emperor Hongzhi feel uncomfortable.

Although the Son of Heaven will not say it explicitly, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not wear small shoes for Xie Shen.

Xie Shen is from the top of the family, and he is also a minister of Hanlin, so there is no rule of direct release.

Therefore, Emperor Hongzhi will be a little tactful, and first let Xie Shen work in the position of the waiter in the East Palace for half a year, and then make an order.

Of course, this is all Xie Shen's speculation, if there is no Tunliu earthquake, maybe Xie Shen will not be released from Beijing immediately by the Son of Heaven. It can only be said that time is also fate.

For a good young man who aspires to enter the cabinet, Xie Shen can only comfort himself, and going out is also a good opportunity for training.

In the middle and late Ming Dynasty, there was a rule that non-Shu Jishi were not allowed to enter the cabinet, but it did not mean that Shu Jishi would always serve as an official in Beijing.

Especially like Xie Shen, who has been promoted to the fourth level in a row, from the sixth grade clear stream to the fourth grade prefect, no matter how you look at it, it is a leader.

The prefect's term of office is three years, but if Xie Shen's political performance is good, it is also possible to be transferred back to Jingshi early.

In the final analysis, everything depends on the meaning of the Son of Heaven.

If the Son of Heaven wanted Xie Shen to be gilded and accumulate political experience for entering the cabinet in the future, he would naturally not let Xie Shen stay in the place for too long.

Fortunately, the magistrates of the Ming Dynasty can bring their families with them, otherwise if Xie Shen and Xu Qianqian, the newlyweds, are separated for three years, it will be a headache.

"I heard that the people in Lu'an Mansion are fierce, everyone is martial, and the wealthy family raises many slaves, Brother Shen, you better be careful."

Xie Pi said with some concern.

The primary consideration of the magistrates, especially the prefects, was how to deal with the relationship with the local gentry.

As the so-called strong dragon does not suppress the head snake, if local officials such as the prefect and the prefect of the county will work against the local wealthy families as soon as they take office, it is likely that they will not have to wait for the transfer of the imperial court, and they can roll up and get out of the house in advance.

China has always been a clan society, the imperial power is not lower than the county, and the influence of local wealthy families cannot be underestimated.

Xie Shen nodded and said, "Brother Pixian can rest assured, the gentleman hides his weapon and moves when the time comes." It's that I really want to move, and it's gradual. ”
