Pu Kaiqiang, Zuo Xiaohu and Tan Zongliang had already gotten the news and rushed to the governor's yamen to wait, they were still a little apprehensive in their hearts, they didn't know what kind of holy decree Lu Dao was waiting for, everyone who was sent to Shaanxi to serve were all down-and-out officials in the imperial court, and no one wanted to come to such a ghost place if they had a little way. This also determines that they have nothing to do with each other, and they are not very clear about what is happening in the court.

It is already an open secret that Shaanxi has eight prefectures under its jurisdiction, namely Xi'an, Fengxiang, Hanzhong, Yan'an, Qingyang, Pingliang, Gongchang and Lintao.

To say that only Su Tiancheng dares to do things like this, put it on other people, no one dares to make such a decision, Shaanxi has suffered from disasters and famines for many years, coupled with the harassment of the rogues, here is the base camp of the rogues, the situation is extremely turbulent, the main responsibility of the local government is to maintain stability, such as Hanzhong Mansion and Fengxiang Mansion, stability can not be said, the influence of the government in the local area, not as good as the rogue.

Over the years, because of the rebellion, Shaanxi officials at all levels, unable to collect taxes, and difficult to maintain themselves, many times rely on the imperial court to exempt taxes, barely live, thousands of miles of official food and clothing, to a place like Shaanxi Province, you just want to be greedy for ink, and it is difficult to achieve the goal, so in such a place, officials are talking about tiger color change.

As soon as the Jiangning battalion came to Shaanxi, it achieved a great victory, exterminating 100,000 rogues and greatly shrinking the arrogance of the rogues, which seemed to be a shot in the arm, and the government at all levels was ready to take advantage of this opportunity to teach many peasant households a good lesson. In the process of requiring peasant households to pay their arrears of taxes, individuals can naturally get a lot of benefits, but it is a pity that the governor's yamen is not allowed to harass the people, and many officials are not allowed to harass them. There are quite a few complaints, but the influence of Su Tiancheng and Jiang Ningying does not dare to say more.

At this time, Su Tiancheng made a bold move and adjusted all the prefects of the eight prefectures under the jurisdiction of Shaanxi.

The prefects who have been adjusted have all left Shaanxi, which is also a suggestion put forward by Su Tiancheng, people have been in Shaanxi for so many years, and there is no credit and hard work. Continuing to stay in Shaanxi, it is not easy to arrange, so they simply left, as for what kind of position they arranged, it was a matter for them to go to their own activities.

On October 25, the ninth year of Chongzhen, the governor of Shaanxi Province, Yamen.

The officials of Shaanxi Province above the fourth grade all gathered here to wait for Su Tiancheng to read the holy decree.

There are a lot of people in the lobby. There are many unfamiliar faces among them, and a few of them have unusual temperaments. Pu Kaiqiang and others were very puzzled, could it be that these people were the so-called vassal kings or the princes of the vassal kings.

Su Tiancheng finally came to the lobby, and beside him was Hong Chengchou, the supervisor of the Jiangning battalion.

When Su Tiancheng invited out the sword of the Holy Decree Monk Fang, everyone knelt down.

The time taken to read the decree is a bit long, but the key is in the later part. That is, many prefects were appointed.

“…… Qu Qingze served as the prefect of Xi'an, Su Pingyang served as the prefect of Yan'an, Zhu Youxiang served as the prefect of Fengxiang Fu, Zhu Xianxuan served as the prefect of Hanzhong Fu, and Sun Sizong served as the prefect of Pingliang Fu. Lu Taibing served as the prefect of Qingyang Prefecture, Chen Yutai served as the prefect of Gongchang Prefecture, and Deng Hui served as the prefect of Lintao Prefecture......"

“…… Su Ertong was appointed as the Tongzhi of Xi'an, Su Jun was appointed as the Tongzhi of Hanzhong Mansion, and Lanqiao was appointed as the Tongzhi of Hanzhong Mansion......"

“…… Liu Jingting was appointed as the governor of the Political Envoy Division, and Yue Gaofeng was appointed as the Governor of the Procuratorial Envoy Division......"

This is a holy decree that surprises anyone, and from this holy decree, many officials in Shaanxi have realized Su Tiancheng's influence in the imperial court, or how much the emperor values Su Tiancheng.

Qu Qingze, Su Pingyang, Sun Sizong, Lu Taibing, Deng Hui, Su Ertong, Su Jun, Liu Jingting, Yue Gaofeng and others, all of whom Su Tiancheng came from Henan Mansion to Shaanxi Province, at a more critical time, among these people, except for Su Jun is Jinshi background, the rest are miscellaneous soldiers, Qu Qingze was born in the middle of the army, Sun Sizong and Lu Taibing were born as students, and the rest of them have not experienced the imperial examination at all, but these people are such people who can become court officials, and there are many of them who are four-grade prefects, These people almost control the entire officialdom in Shaanxi, and from this moment on, the role of the three divisions will not be very large, that is to say, Pu Kaiqiang, Zuo Xiaohu, Tan Zongliang and others must listen to Su Tiancheng's arrangement.

This is an impact on the one hand, and a more important impact comes from the arrangement of Zhu Youxiang and Zhu Xianxuan.

Zhu Xianxuan is the king of Jin, the well-known vassal king, arranged to serve as the prefect of Hanzhong Mansion, Zhu Youxiang is the son of King Fu, the cousin of the current emperor Zhu Youzhen, to Fengxiang Mansion as the prefect, these two imperial relatives came to Shaanxi and served as the prefect, which also shows that the emperor's holy decree has finally begun to be implemented.

As for Chen Yutai's departure from the Hanlin Academy, the dignified champion, but he was arranged to be under Bangyan and served as the prefect of Gongchang Mansion, which did not attract the attention of many people.

The reason for this, Su Tiancheng is clear, just when he arrived in the capital, an old acquaintance came to visit, Zhou Yanru's housekeeper Zhou Kang, Zhou Kang brought Zhou Yanru's handwritten letter, which focused on Chen Yutai's affairs, although Chen Yutai is still in the Hanlin Academy as a revisionist, but because Wen Tiren controls the government, Chen Yutai has no chance to make suggestions at all, even if it is in the name of the revision, it is also in name, the champion of the year, almost forgotten by everyone, in the middle of this process, Chen Yutai has applied for release many times, didn't even expect to stay in the capital, but such a request could not be satisfied, in desperation, Chen Yutai turned to Zhou Yanru for help, after all, Zhou Yanru was the first assistant of the year.

Su Tiancheng agreed to Zhou Yanru's request and suggested that Chen Yutai go to Shaanxi.

As for Zhu Xianxuan, it was Su Tiancheng who took the initiative to ask to go to Shaanxi, Zhu Xianxuan is a smart person, but he has never been tempered in the officialdom, and he is also in the fog about many things in the officialdom, as a relative of the emperor, when he entered the officialdom, he encountered a lot of difficulties, and almost all the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty opposed the entry of the emperor's relatives into the imperial court, and they would definitely artificially set up all kinds of obstacles, so as to prove that the emperor's will was wrong.

The more times like this, the more Su Tiancheng wants Zhu Xianxuan to come to Shaanxi, and through his help, let Zhu Xianxuan make some achievements in Shaanxi, so as to best prove that the emperor's decision is correct.

Zhu Youxiang came to Shaanxi, which was beyond Su Tiancheng's expectations, his suggestion at that time was to let Zhu Youxiang go to the south, after all, the conditions in the south are better, Zhu Youxiang is very flexible, and it is not very difficult to go to the south to open up the situation, I can't imagine that Sun Chengzong suggested that Zhu Youxiang come to Shaanxi.

It should be said that most of Su Tiancheng's suggestions were adopted by the emperor, especially in the appointment of many of Su Tiancheng's henchmen, the emperor strongly supported them, otherwise they would not have achieved such an effect.

There is also a special circumstance here, that is, the vast majority of court officials are absolutely unwilling to come to Shaanxi, and a very vivid example can be used to show that some scholars who were born in Jinshi would rather go to the south to become prefects than come to Shaanxi to be prefects, and the prefects who died in Shaanxi and those who were impeached and punished ranked first in the country.

Although it is said that the Jiangning battalion has reached Shaanxi and achieved such a big victory, there are still 200,000 rogues in Shaanxi, who knows whether these rogues will suddenly exert their power and capture a certain county or state city, in that case, the prefect and the prefect should not think about saving the lives of their families.

The combination of various conditions has formed the current situation.

Su Tiancheng's purpose has reached more than half, as for the chief officer of the three divisions has not been adjusted, in fact, it is not too big a thing, everywhere, there is internal friction, even if the officials of Shaanxi have made such a big adjustment, but the difficulties still exist, the foundation of Shaanxi is not good, there are still a large number of rogues, the people are extremely poor, and it takes a lot of energy to recover their vitality. In this process, the Jiangning battalion also needs to continue to dispatch to gradually encroach on the rogues, shrink the territory of the rogues' activities, and constantly cheer up the officials at all levels in Shaanxi.

In his previous life, he was originally a civil servant, so Su Tiancheng's understanding has a lot of pragmatic points, he is not harsh, everything he does, he is based on reality, he will not be ambitious, he pays attention to the relationship between colleagues, tries to make use of all the favorable conditions, and does things for people very low-key, in just a few years, there is a reason to be able to do so many big things.

On the way back to Shaanxi, Su Tiancheng thought a lot, including what to do next, suddenly adjusting so many officials, causing a shock is certain, the troubled times need to use heavy canons, those gentle means in the past, it is difficult to achieve a good effect, for example, officials at all levels in Shaanxi, the governor of the yamen can not be exhaustive, the first thing is to grasp all the prefects, as long as the prefects can really play a role, the situation can quickly improve, and in doing so, it is also the fastest effect.

In this way, the pressure on Su Tiancheng is not ordinary, the emperor approved his play, and the arrangements of the officials are almost all in accordance with the requirements he put forward, in this case, it is difficult for Shaanxi to get the support of the imperial court, Weng Tongzhang actually said hello, if it is within a period of time, Shaanxi can not appear in a good situation, and it is conceivable that there will be an attack in the imperial court.

The greater the pressure, the greater the motivation, so Su Tiancheng has already thought about it, he must think of some special methods, do things according to the routine, it is impossible to achieve results, as for the implementation of these methods or ideas, it is at this moment after the announcement of the holy decree.
