Chapter 1131: Controversy

In April, a wall had been erected next to the lotus pond opposite the road of the Governor's Mansion. The Lotus Academy had been completed, and Tianyou and others were all admitted to school.

When all official duties are carried out in an orderly manner, Cao Yong becomes idle instead.

The military training responsibilities were handed over to several admirals, generals, and civil affairs were the responsibility of the governor's commander and the commander's commander.

There were no governors or censors in the Zhili period, and only guarding and patroling roads were set up.

It was only after Cao Yong was released from Zhili that Yongzheng proposed to follow other provinces and set up the Administrative Commission and the Censorate Commission in Zhili to be responsible for civil affairs and criminal affairs.

The new Censor's Censor's Office was transferred from Nanbianping. He was a professional and heard that the case was handled neatly and had a good reputation in the officialdom in the south. The new Censor's Office was an acquaintance, that was Tang Zhiyu, a colleague of Cao Yong's former Taipu Temple.

Tang Zhiyu has been to Honglu Temple and Dali Temple over the years, and has been around the fourth rank. A few years ago, he was dismissed from his official position for offending people. After being resurrected, he was released from the capital and served as the Chief of Fengtian Prefecture for several years.

It was not until the second year of Yongzheng that he moved to the Minister of Rites three years old that Tang Zhiyu made his mark.

As his minister, even if he was released from the outside, he was considered a governor of a province. However, this time he released the Zhili governor and was demoted from a second rank to a second rank official. However, no one thought he was inferior because the governor of Zhili was one person, and the governor was inferior to one person, and the governor of ten thousand people was short of much weaker than the governor of other provinces.

In addition, Cao Yong was his former boss, and in the eyes of outsiders, he felt that Tang Zhiyu was highly valued.

No matter what Cao Yong's background is, after all, he is not a professional and young, so it is still too difficult to bear the military and political affairs of the province. The emperor sent Tang Zhiyu to protect Cao Yong and also to ensure that Tang Zhiyu was fulfilled.

Obviously, Cao Yong also thinks so.

After being an official for more than ten years, among his former colleagues, the one who was most happy with Cao Yong was Tang Zhiyu. Whether it was based on character or ability, Tang Zhiyu deserves respect.

He handed over the "Zhili Development Plan" to Tang Zhiyu, who was taken to carry out.

Just like when he was in the Taipu Temple Yamen in his early years, Tang Zhiyu was suppressed by Cao Yong's wonderful ideas. However, compared with Cao Yong, the theorist, Tang Zhiyu was obviously a practical practitioner.

Therefore, he was particularly cautious about the regulations on farming mentioned by Cao Yong. He did not agree to implement it immediately, but instead went down to take a walk, conducted on-site inspections, and then made a decision.

If it were other bosses and subordinates questioned this way, they would have been annoyed long ago; if it were Cao Yong, they would have only joy.

He was worried that the trick he had developed was like Wang Anshi's reform. The one above thought was good, but the one below implemented changed. In the end, the local people were unlucky.

With Tang Zhiyu, a rigorous and careful person, only Cao Yong can feel more at ease when he implements this policy of enriching the people.

In this way, Cao Yong sent all the errands in his hands, and his life was no longer as complicated as before.

He wanted to be idle, but the staff documents such as the Governor's Office were idle.

Not everyone likes leisurely. These slanders do not choose to become officials, but choose to hide behind the scenes. Some are for money and some are for power.

In their opinion, if they do not take on errands and are unable to show their abilities, they will lose their "filial piety" outside and become a kind of writer.

Seeing that the atmosphere in the Muyuan Court was not right, Song Ren proposed to Cao Yong to recommend these people to the yamen of the General Administration and the Censorate Office. This not only calmed everyone's restlessness, but also grasped the dynamics of these two departments, which was in line with the "way of governing the emperor".

Jiang Jian disagreed with this. He turned Zhili into an iron bucket, which proved that Cao Yong had outstanding abilities, but it may not be the emperor's pleasure.

The salary of the staff documents of the Governor's Office is already quite generous, ranging from fifty taels of silver per year to fifty taels of silver per year.

In addition, the New Year's Day rewards can not only support the family, but also live a richer life than ordinary people. Those who have the intention to make money have a bad life and do not have to force themselves to stay if they want to leave.

Cao Yong thought about it and took a break. Those who were really frivolous and found a way to fire the people. He did not recommend it to the governor and the Censorate Department, but wrote a letter of recommendation directly and sent them to Yidu, Shanxi.

A few days ago, Yiduli came several letters, asking Cao Yong to help him pay attention and hire a few staff members and clerks to come over.

In his own words, his life as a governor has been "overwhelmed".

Shanxi is a united official and gentry, and the local forces are extremely tough. If his parents go down in one province, they feel a little bit like they have nowhere to talk.

In addition, the people he brought with him were mostly relatives of the tribe, and there were very few experienced staff and clerks, which made it even worse, so he wrote to Cao Yong for help.

If the governor was not Tang Zhiyu, but someone else, Cao Yong would "recommend" several staff documents to grasp the following dynamics, so as to avoid differences in political views and delay efforts. If Tang Zhiyu had done so, that would have affected the harmony between the two.

As for the Censorate, it is a dual-leader's yamen, which is under the jurisdiction of the Zhili Inspectorate and the Governor's yamen.

In Cao Yong's opinion, it is better to have a relatively confrontation in judicial power. It is better to supervise it on the top if you participate in criminal activities.

Song Ren and Jiang Jian said nothing about Cao Yong's decision.

But since then, they have not been as comfortable as they were early on getting along with each other, but they are somewhat subtle and always have a bit of a rivalry.

Other staff members and clerks were close to Song Ren or Jiang Jian, as if they were standing in a row.

Cao Yong noticed the changes in this and was not patient to do the "balance".

He felt that his energy was limited, and he had already spent time dealing with the capital and local officials, and he was unwilling to worry about being in the Governor's Mansion.

Therefore, based on Song Ren and Director Jiang Jian, he clarified the scope of responsibility of the two.

Song Ren was responsible for the official relations in the capital, with three wings in the six working rooms, officials, soldiers and workers; Jiang Jian was responsible for the official exchanges in the province, with the three wings in the household, punishment and courtesy.

In this way, the two of them were not divided into equal parts, and they evenly divided the common affairs of the Governor's Office.

This time, I was stunned by the staff and documents who were the first to take the team. This one was obviously from the official department, but he had reached the friendship with Jiang Jian a few days ago; that one was from the household department, and he went to Song Ren to "ask for advice" the first two days.

Jiang Jian and Cao Yong have been together for a long time, and Song Renren has become a master. Although Cao Yong did not express his dissatisfaction, his clear sharing of responsibilities was expressed in such a way that he clearly expressed his meaning.

He was concerned about his old love and trusted Jiang Jian. He also valued Song Ren's experience and gave him important tasks.

Both of them are smart people, so they know the right degree.

In addition, after this time, the two of them dealt with the most, so they all became motivated. Who is the first person around the governor is not up to his words, but ultimately depends on who is doing the job well.

Their annual salary is 1,500 taels of silver per person, which is not the highest among the staff at the level of governor and governor, and they can be ranked first.

In addition, they were valued by Cao Yong, and when the officials below came to the Governor's Office, there was "Mu Jing". After a few months, each person had seven or eight hundred taels of silver, and in a year there were at least two or three thousand taels of silver.

Whether it is profit or the land of governance, as the curtainists, they have reached the peak of their careers, and the two are very energetic.

Jiang Jian's wife, Zhong, was not only knowledgeable and well-educated, but also good at poetry and painting.

When he was in the capital earlier, Li liked her very much. After arriving in Zhili, Li asked Zhong to give advice on painting.

It was just to understand the boredom. Li was getting older and had not used needles and thread for two years. However, in addition to socializing, she still had half a day of free time every day. She was bored and began to draw Buddha statues to spend her kung fu, and then she asked Zhong for advice.

Because of this, Zhong went to Li to teach for an hour every other day.

Niu Niu and Tianhui looked interesting, and they followed each time to make fun of it. They were young and Buddhism were too far away for them. As Zhong learned to paint, he often painted some flowers and plants, matched their own colors, and painted some new styles.

However, Zhong's "teaching painting" career only took more than a month to stop because he was diagnosed with pregnancy.

Jiang Jian is over 100 years old. This is the first time that the couple has had good news in their three years of marriage, and everyone is happy for them.

Since I learned that Jiang Jian had become an aide to the Governor's Office, in the past six months, the tribe members of Jiang Jian's hometown have sent several groups of tribe members to bring their children here.

Although he did not expressly want Jiang Jian to accept his heir, the older teenager, the younger seven or eight-year-old child was sent here, and his intentions were revealed.

Even the head of the Jiang family sent a letter to Jiang Jian, asking him to choose one of his nephews to stay by his side.

Jiang Jian was amused and laughed. He was raised in the temple since he was a child. When he grew up, he studied Legalism. He was full of ambitions and was not very serious about the matter of blood inheritance.

He chose none of the three children and decided to send them all back to Jiangxi. In his letter to the patriarch, he also stated that he had no intention of adopting his son.

The Jiang clan members who sent several children here advised Jiang Jian to think twice.

He is in his forties. Even if he has a biological child in the future, when he knows his destiny, the child is still old; leaving two nephews around him to respect him is always cheaper.

Jiang Jian was very determined and after several persuasions, he did not change his mind.

The tribe members didn't say anything in person, but behind the scenes all the matter was on Zhong's head, thinking that she was stopping him.

They were thinking of reliing on their elders to persuade him again from Zhong, but they heard that Zhong was happy, so they had to leave Zhili reluctantly.

Although Jiang Jian did not have an official position, everyone knew that he was Cao Yong's arm.

There was good news from his family, and this congratulation was endless.

Even Song Ren sent people to send gifts to Jiang Jian. He made a special trip to exchange for the tent of the Beijing City, a tent with a picture of a hundred sons and a jasper screen where a boy holds a lotus.

These two gifts are not only exquisite, but also bring good luck.

Jiang Jian saw that Song Ren was showing goodwill, and not only accepted the kindness, but also made a special trip to buy a banquet and invited Song Ren to have a drink.
