The Sage of Confucianism and Taoism
Chapter 946: Ning'an's Disaster
Chapter 946 The Lord of Mizhou
The convoy had more than a hundred armored ox carts, and was escorted by a guard of 3,000 people. It was so magnificent that the farmers on both sides of the road stopped their farm work and stopped to watch.
Fang Yun stood up from the pavilion and led the officials of Ning'an County to meet them.
The convoy stopped and a large number of officials got off the cars.
Fang Yun smiled and glanced at the crowd. At first glance, many of them were familiar faces.
Three Hanlin officials walked in the front.
One of them was originally the Minister of Rites, Sai Zhixue, who was Fang Yun's fellow villager. When Fang Yun was named "Literati Model", he was the one who escorted the reward with the secret order of the Queen Mother. Now, he will serve as the governor of Mizhou!
Another one is Yu Xingshu, a general of Yuhai City. After watching Fang Yun's military confrontation, he finally broke through and became a Hanlin, so he served as the governor of Mizhou.
The third is Hu Yu, a disciple of the Minister of Literature, who holds an important position in the Academy. When Fang Yun was studying in the Imperial Academy in Beijing, he met Hu Yu many times and even received his guidance. He came to serve as the governor of the Mizhou Academy.
This means that except for the Yingyang Army, all other forces in Mizhou will be taken over by the monarch's faction.
Unlike the other three states, Mizhou only has four prefectures, so the real power of the governor, the governor and the governor is relatively small, barely on par with the governor of the Transportation Department, and lower than the general of the Yingyang Army.
As for the four prefectures in Mizhou, except for the prefect of Qingwu Prefecture, who is still Cai He, the prefects of the other three prefectures have all been replaced, as well as the prefectural generals and prefectural governors of the four prefectures.
However, the generals of the Yingyang Army who belonged to the military or the monarch's faction left, and all were controlled by the people of the Zuo Xiang's party. After all, the Queen Mother and the Minister of Literature were powerless against the Yingyang Army, so it was better to exchange for control of the local armies.
The only high-ranking civil servant in Mizhou who has not been replaced is Geng Ge, the director of the Transportation Department. This is an important position that Liu Shan must not give up. Once he gives up the Transportation Department, the Yingyang Army will be at the mercy of others.
Fang Yun looked around and found that not only did he know the three chief officials of Mizhou, but even the new prefect, general and magistrate were either his acquaintances or had met many times, and even his uncle Fang Shouye.
In addition to prefecture-level officials, more than a dozen county magistrates also came together. There are nearly 40 counties in Mizhou, and it will take some time to replace them all.
Fang Yun was extremely relieved that it was he who forced the power of the left prime minister from the entire Mizhou into the Yingyang Army, and these important positions would inevitably be envied by countless officials. Especially for the prefect, general, magistrate, general and county magistrate, etc., which the Jinshi could compete for, it would inevitably be white-hot, and the competitors would even ask people from the aristocratic families to intercede with the queen mother or the minister of literature.
However, the two withstood the pressure and only appointed Fang Yun's acquaintances, which meant that the favor was Fang Yun's, and also indicated that the court fully supported Fang Yun's palace examination.
From today on, all the decrees that can be decided by the prefecture and the government are what Fang Yun says.
After getting off the car, the officials stood in place, with the three chief officials of Mizhou in front, the officials of various departments and prefectures in the middle, and the rest of the county-level officials in the back.
After standing firmly, everyone bowed deeply together.
"Meet Fang Xusheng!"
Fang Yun straightened his waist, nodded slightly, and accepted the great gift from everyone.
After the ceremony, Fang Shouye smiled and said, "It's still our Dayuanfu Fang family that has a promising future!"
"Are you talking about the one who is Fang Xusheng's staff?"
Everyone laughed, Fang Shouye's son was a staff in Fang Yun's mansion.
Fang Yingwu rolled his eyes and was too lazy to look at his father.
Fang Yun took the officials to the county literary academy, and after they were settled, he held a banquet and a literary meeting at the county government at noon.
Because it was the end of spring and the beginning of summer, it was the common "Send Spring and Welcome Summer Literary Meeting". Not only officials from the capital were invited, but also people from various halls stationed in Ning'an County and local scholars were invited.
The scholars in Ning'an County used to respect Fang Yun, but now they are both respectful and fearful. He was just acting as the county magistrate, but he attracted the four halls of the Holy Court to station there. In just a few months, he took away Mizhou, which had been run by the left prime minister for many years, leaving only the Yingyang Army for the left prime minister's party. He was so frightening.
Fang Yun sat in the main seat and said almost nothing except a few words before the literary meeting began.
Literary meetings have always been a stage for young people. Fang Yun is younger than anyone else, but he can no longer be regarded as a young person. Even when young people write poems and ask for comments, they are not qualified to ask Fang Yun.
In the eyes of everyone, at least Mingzhou's poems can make Fang Yun speak, but it is already amazing for a literary meeting in Ning'an County to have a poem out of the county. It is extremely difficult to even reach the capital, let alone Mingzhou.
After the young man finished writing poems, everyone started drinking and chatting, and the second theme of the literary meeting was that the officials of Ning'an County welcomed the new officials on behalf of Mizhou.
Fang Yun, as a virtual saint, naturally could not go on stage, so the county magistrate Tao Dingnian went on stage, squeezed out an extremely sincere smile, and introduced the superiors of their immediate superiors and the superiors of their immediate superiors to the officials of Ning'an County.
Every time Tao Dingnian introduced an official, nearly a hundred officials in Ning'an County would stand up and greet them, and later they just stood there all the time.
Fang Yun was smiling from beginning to end. It was normal for local officials to welcome officials from other places, but a group of Ning'an County officials who had been abandoned by the Left Xiang Party welcomed the new bigwigs of Mizhou. Just think about how complicated they were in their hearts, but they could only pinch their noses and welcome them again and again, and call them superiors again and again. It really takes a certain amount of skill to hold back from laughing.
At the end of the literary meeting, Fang Yun suddenly heard a small official whisper something. He held back his laughter, but Ao Huang laughed.
"Alas, I finally understand how Lord Fang felt when he entered Mizhou alone. We must be in the same situation as he was back then."
The situation has completely reversed.
Ning'an County officials nearby kept nodding their heads. This literary gathering was too terrifying. The lowest official was also the new county magistrate of Ning'an County, and his position was higher than that of all officials except Fang Yun.
Obviously, the officials came here together to give the officials of Ning'an County a super warning, so that they would know the true status of Fang Yun and tell them who is the real master of Mizhou.
All officials in the state should bow their heads in front of Fang Yun!
Although Fang Yun was in power, he did not do anything out of the ordinary except smiling from beginning to end. He was still a harmless and low-key county magistrate like he had just arrived.
As evening approached, the literary gathering was coming to an end. Sai Zhixue, the governor of the state, stood up to make the final summary and thank you.
After the final thanks, Sai Zhixue looked at Fang Yun and smiled, "Although you are a virtual saint, you are only the acting county magistrate now. If I, the governor of the state, say something in Ning'an County, it will still have an impact, right?"
Everyone chuckled and looked at Fang Yun together. They didn't know what Sai Zhixue wanted to do, but it seemed that he wanted Fang Yun to help, but he was afraid that Fang Yun would be unhappy.
The officials in Ning'an County became more and more depressed. This was not the way the governor talked to the county magistrate, but simply the county magistrate talking to the governor!
"Old Sai, stop being so mysterious. If you have anything to say, just say it. I want to go home to accompany my wife." Fang Yun's words caused another round of chuckles.
Fang Yun's address to Sai Zhixue did not involve his official position, so the embarrassment of the two people's reversed status was gone.
