Daming Military Empire

Chapter 490
By the way, Chen Zilong is the governor of the three provinces. Why is he so excited about a second-rank prince and master?
In fact, the governors, governors, even supervisors and inspectors are not permanent officials. They are all temporarily assigned by the emperor to handle certain matters, which is somewhat similar to the nature of imperial envoys.

In the history of the Ming Dynasty, there were so many governors, governors, supervisors, and inspectors, so why did the emperor of the Ming Dynasty send so many imperial envoys?

This is mainly due to the problem of the local bureaucracy in the Ming Dynasty. The three local divisions, Cheng Xuanzheng Division, Du Commanding Division, and Tijuan Division, are in charge of the administrative, military, and criminal punishments of each province. They are not subordinate to each other. Relationship.

This kind of structure is fine when there is nothing to do. Once there is an invasion of foreign enemies or a peasant uprising, the opinions of the three divisions are often not unified. It is the governor, whose authority is higher than that of the third division, and controls all local officials.

The governor is usually served by the Minister of the Ministry of War, which means that his rank is not as high as that of the chief officer of the third division, but he is an imperial envoy, so the third division has to listen to him.

But in the Ming Dynasty, whether it was a foreign enemy or a peasant uprising, they were not afraid of big troubles. They usually spanned several provinces. The problem, at this time, the emperor had to send a larger imperial envoy to coordinate the military affairs of the provinces, and this imperial envoy was the governor.

There are also those who are particularly troublesome, crossing the jurisdiction of several governors. At this time, a larger imperial envoy needs to be sent to coordinate. This imperial envoy is the supervisor.

It's a bit far away, let's get down to business.

In fact, before Chen Zilong became the governor of the three provinces, he was only a magistrate of the fourth grade. He is not qualified to be the governor. However, his governor of the three northwestern provinces is not to fight wars, but to deal with the problem of grain cultivation in dry areas, and he is also the champion. His background, coupled with Zhu Cijiong's insistence, made him the governor.

According to the regulations, no matter whether it is the governor or the governor, after dealing with the matters entrusted by the emperor, he must return to Beijing to return to his order. That is to say, after he resigned from the post of governor of the three provinces, his rank is still the fourth rank.

Of course, if the emperor's confession is handled well, he will usually be promoted after returning to Beijing.

In the past few years, Chen Zilong has been in charge of the Northwest, and he has indeed done a good job. He directly turned a disaster area with almost no harvest into a big granary with blue waves and thousands of miles. The promotion of drought-tolerant crops and the continuous construction of water conservancy results.

He thought, after returning to the capital and returning to his life, the servant who can be promoted to the third rank will be the top of the sky. He never thought that the emperor would directly mention him to the prince's young master who is the second rank. Could he not be excited?

As for the investigation of the empress dowagers of the two palaces, with his handsome appearance, elegant temperament and good conversation, these two naturally have no objection to his appointment as the prince's young teacher.

The matter of Zhan Shifu is also a piece of cake for Chen Zilong, who has served as the magistrate of Fengtian and the governor of the three northwestern provinces.

In short, everyone is happy, Zhu Cijiong doesn't have to worry about children's education.

Next is the establishment of the Ministry of Education and the Ministry of Commerce. Zhu Cijiong doesn't need to worry about the Ministry of Education. Huang Daozhou's enthusiasm for education is almost to the point of obsession.

As soon as he took office, he searched for talents everywhere, left and right servants, the doctors of the five clean-up departments of Enlightenment, Skills, Imperial Examination, University, and Sinology, and even the Yuanwailang and the principals of each clean-up department were all selected by him one by one. .

For a while, all the yamen in the capital city were frightened by him, and people were panicked, but he was eager for talents and ignored them.

After more than a month of investigation, a full list of officials at all levels of the Ministry of Education was handed over to Zhu Cijiong's case.

Zhu Cijiong has no objection to this list, but the bosses of various ministries are quite critical of this kind of blatant poaching behavior. As long as you co-author, your yamen needs people, and we don't need people. Should we be poached by you?
Therefore, the next morning, when the list was announced, the big bosses of the various yamen quit, and there was a tendency to unite to besiege Huang Daozhou and condemn this guy's immoral behavior.

Verbal warfare, this is Huang Daozhou's strong point, this guy is so crazy that he dares to speak up to the emperor, let alone these yamen bosses who are on the same level as him.

Now the scene in the early court was lively. The first person to attack was Xu Guangqi, Minister of the Ministry of Rites.

As soon as the ceremony officer finished reading the list, Xu Guangqi coughed, saluted Zhu Cijiong, and said seriously: "Master Huang, you just transferred Mengzhang away, what about the affairs of the Ministry of Rites? There is a shortage of people, can't you find a way from the place?"

Xu Guangqi is the emperor's teacher, and he is highly respected. Huang Daozhou didn't dare to go too far. He walked quickly to the carpet under the steps, knelt down and saluted Zhu Cijiong, then straightened up, cupped his hands at Xu Guangqi and said, "Lord Chief Assistant!" , Many functions of the Ministry of Education come from the etiquette department. Mengzhang is very familiar with these, and transferring him to take charge can ensure that the work can be started as soon as possible. Isn't this request too much?"

Xu Guangqi froze when he heard the words, he couldn't utter the following words, he looked at the emperor, seeing that the emperor had no intention of opening his mouth, he had to retreat magnificently.

Immediately afterwards Bi Maokang, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, coughed again, walked quickly to the side of Huang Daozhou, knelt down and saluted Huang Daozhou, then straightened up and said to Huang Daozhou: "Master Huang, our Ministry of Industry has nothing to do with your education, right? If you transfer Fu Zhai away, what about the project he is in charge of?"

Bi Maokang had no choice but to speak up, because the right servant selected by this guy was Xu Fuyuan, the servant of the Ministry of Industry. Wouldn't this delay people's research on wired telephones?

When Huang Daozhou heard the words, his neck got stuck, and he said directly: "Master Bi, you can't say that. What is education and the Ministry of Industry has little to do with it? Many universities in Beijing are under the name of your Ministry of Industry. How do you let me take care of it? Moreover, the current education is not only about imperial examinations, but also skills. Wouldn't it be good to transfer him over to take control of the real power? You won't block your subordinates' advancement ladder?"

Hearing this, Bi Maokang spurted blood by mistake, and the main reason for letting Xu Fuyuan serve as a freelance servant is to facilitate his research. What is blocking the subordinate's advancement? This is the emperor's intention, so he had no choice but to raise his eyes and ask the emperor for help.

Zhu Cijiong is embarrassing, he proposed to add yamen, and now there is a fierce person here doing it in a hurry, it is a good thing, how can he stop it!
Therefore, he could only pretend he didn't see it, and let Huang Daozhou do his best.

This time, Huang Daozhou turned on his horsepower even more, and all the big bosses in the yamen were speechless after being sprayed by him.

What kind of country is people-oriented, and education is the foundation of the people; what kind of education is a millennium plan, you know nothing!

What Zodiac Zhou sprayed was so refreshing, the spit sputtered out, and the heroes retreated. In the end, he snatched all the officials without pulling him down!
