Chapter 2768
For the reasons Li Qingyang listed, Zhu Zian had actually thought of some of them before, but they were not organized in such a way.After listening to this discussion, he suddenly felt enlightened, and understood the deep-seated reasons for the bold and reckless actions of the Caofu yamen.
The yamen of the Cao government and the water transportation system have too much power and resources, so that they can operate independently without relying on the support of the imperial court or the local state government.For people in this system, the outside world has no way to restrict them, so they naturally don't need to be afraid of doing things, so that the whole system is used by them and becomes a tool for them to make money.
Zhu Zi'an said: "It's Mr. Li who sees it thoroughly, and I have been taught."
Li Qingyang intended to test Zhu Zian, so he asked him: "Since you already understand the reason for this situation, have you thought of a way to restrict it?"
Zhu Zi'an replied: "The Cao Mansion's various evil deeds are all due to its excessive power. If it is to be eradicated, it must first be reduced and downgraded, and it must not be allowed to have the opportunity to assert its power."
Li Qingyang nodded and said: "The Cao Mansion is the yamen established by the Ming court, so the power reduction should also be handed over to the Ming court. But there is a problem, that is the decree issued by the Ming court, especially when it involves officials Appointment and dismissal, and the content of the adjustment of the functions of the yamen, can it be effectively implemented in areas outside the capital?"
"This..." Zhu Zian was speechless for a moment.
Of course he is very clear about the current situation of the Ming court, but it is just a tool used by Haihan to complete the smooth transition of the dynasty.In the areas where Haihan has influence, there are not many local officials who will choose to continue to be loyal to Daming, and trying to protect their future and wealth is the real thing.Let alone the effective implementation of the decree sent from the capital, it is thankful that it was not thrown away as waste paper.
It is not difficult for Zhu Zian to imagine that if the Ming court issued an official document and sent an imperial envoy to the Caofu Yamen in Huai'an Prefecture to announce the removal of all civil and military officials there, lower the administrative level of the Caofu Yamen, and cancel the establishment of the Caofu Army. It may not be possible to implement any of them, and even the imperial envoy may not be able to leave the Caofu Yamen safely.
Zhu Zian said unwillingly: "Could it be that we can only watch and take no measures?"
Li Qingyang said: "Of course we have the right to intervene in this case, but the only measures we can take are to formulate handling opinions and submit them to the foreign affairs department. Deal with it, and try to prevent similar problems from happening again.”
Zhu Zian smiled wryly and said, "If it's just this kind of interference, then I'm afraid it won't achieve the desired effect. Before I took up my post, I heard that the Special Liaison Office has great authority. Can't we handle this matter by ourselves?"
Li Qingyang said: "The authority of this office is indeed very large. As long as it is related to Daming, we can intervene. But our job is to sort out and analyze all kinds of Ming-related information, find problems from it, and formulate solutions that are in line with Haihan's interests. .As far as implementing those programs, that's not our job."
After all, Zhu Zian was young and energetic, and couldn't help but continue to argue: "But the actions of the Cao Mansion will not only affect the interests of the Ming court. Most of the money, food and materials embezzled by the Cao Mansion come from the rich and prosperous places in the south of the Yangtze River. Now that these state capitals are all under the jurisdiction of the East China Sea Region, didn’t Haihan also suffer direct losses?”
Seeing that he was agitated, Li Qingyang persuaded him: "Since we have already participated in the investigation of this matter, we will not turn a blind eye to it. However, it is impossible to solve this kind of long-standing malpractice overnight, we have to take it step by step. Shall we send a team The army went to Huai'an Mansion, tied up all the heads of the Cao Mansion's Yamen and chopped off their heads, will the problem of the water transportation system be completely solved?"
Hearing what he said, Zhu Zian gradually calmed down.It is true that the ills of the water transportation system cannot be solved by dealing with a few officials involved, but if he does not respond, then he really can't bear it.
Li Qingyang said: "You don't have to worry, go back and sort out the situation first, think about where to start to cure this ill. After thinking about it, write an opinion on how to deal with it."
After Li Qingyang finished serving tea to see off the guests, Zhu Zian got up to leave after seeing this.He noticed that the files piled up on Li Qingyang's desk were much more than what Zhou Shaoyuan sent to him, and it would be inappropriate to delay him here to deal with official affairs.
Although Zhu Zian tried hard to think, after all, he had been in contact with practice for too short a time, and he was not sure what methods could be used and what could not be used. The solution he came up with was not even satisfactory to him.Until Zhou Shaoyuan came to inform him to call it a day, he still couldn't come up with a clue on how to deal with the water transportation case.
Zhu Zian went out of the Yamen full of thoughts, but saw two familiar carriages parked at the door, one with Qiong Lianfa's mark on the door, it was the carriage of the high-end inn where Tao Hongfang and others lived; the front of the other carriage There is a small flag with red letters on a black background, and a conspicuous "stone" character on it. It is Shi Chengwu's car.
While Zhu Zian was still wondering if this was a coincidence, he saw Shi Chengwu poking his head out of the car window and beckoning to him.
Zhu Zian went up to exchange greetings, only to realize that Shi Chengwu and the others happened to finish their work nearby, so they happened to come here to see how his first day in office was going.
After hearing this, Zhu Zian couldn't help being moved.Although he is a former nobleman, but now he is under the influence of others, mixed with these upstarts, he will be somewhat cautious, but Shi Chengwu and others obviously have no regard for him, and there is no alienation after returning from the mission. On the contrary, the relationship is He got closer and closer, and recently he has begun to call him brothers, which is indeed somewhat beyond his expectations.
Now that it was time for dinner, the few of them logically found a place to have dinner together.However, Bai Letong did not go out with them today because he had to accompany his father on official duties.
Zhu Zian wanted to be the host, but Shi Chengwu pushed him onto the chair and took the initiative to take the job: "I just had your thank-you banquet two days ago, so I don't need you to treat me today, I will do this one. "
Zhu Zian was still polite, and Tao Hongfang beside him said, "You don't need to argue with Cheng Wu, he has a happy event coming today, so it's time to treat him."
After Zhu Zian asked, he realized that these people had gone on a blind date with Shi Chengwu in the afternoon, and the result seemed to be good. After Shi Chengwu met the woman, he saw each other right. If there is no accident, the possibility of the two getting married is very high small.
Zhu Zian said: "Then I really want to congratulate Brother Shi! I wonder which lady is so lucky to be favored by Brother Shi?"
