Chapter 498: Master of Science
Liu Peng immediately said, "I'm afraid Guikun Zhong doesn't know yet. In addition to my office documents and Kanhe, there is also a Madu-Congratulations Ma Daotai!"
"Madu Gong?" Yang Guanguang asked immediately, "But the inspector who is now the patrol of the right path of Haiyou?"
Liu Peng nodded and said, "It's this Ma Daotai!"
Yang Guanguang immediately felt that this matter was a bit difficult. It was not a cat, but Ma Daotai, who was patrolling the right path of Haiyou. He was definitely a big shot in the province. Moreover, his position as patrolling the right path of Haiyou gave him almost unlimited supervision over the entire Three East Prefectures.
The rules in the Ming Dynasty officialdom were that the more clear the flow, the greater the power. As an inspector, Daotai could find faults in the prefectures and counties without any scruples. Even if a prefect like Tao Langxian meets Daotai, he had to serve him carefully, let alone now that Ma Daotai came to Zhaoyuan County at this time, he must have deliberately brought trouble.
But after taking a deep breath, Yang Guanguang became interested in this challenge. Zhaoyuan's Yang family passed down his poetry and books, and was even more famous Neo-Confucian scholars. He kept talking about moral articles. His specific professional level is always a mess, but when it comes to power struggles in the officialdom, he is definitely a master.
He often heard his Jinshi brother say how glorious he was in the officialdom, and he had long drooled. But today, Liu Peng gave himself such an opportunity: "Young Master Liu, don't worry, our Yang family is a real native of Zhaoyuan. Not to mention a supervisor, even if the food supervision road comes, there is a way to deal with it!"
There are six prefectures in the entire Shandong territory, regardless of the Liaodong roads. The Ming Dynasty set up a total of twenty roads in Shandong, which is equivalent to twenty mother-in-laws staring at six young wives at all times, and they also come to discipline the young wives from time to time. The local prefectures and counties can only be one young wives who are angry.
Among the twenty Taoists, thirteen of them are divided into roads, sub-court roads and military preparation roads, which have fixed local jurisdictions, and the other is the food supervision roads, and the post and preaching roads that govern the province. Among these twenty Taoists, the food supervision roads have the highest status and are one of the most prominent figures in the province. The famous "grain roads" are also completely incomparable to the patrol roads such as Ma Daotai.
What's more, Ma Dugong is a relatively weak person in the sub-scheduling road. He is not the deputy envoy of the fourth-rank inspector, but only the fifth-rank inspector. Therefore, Yang Guanguang suddenly became confident: "Mr. Liu, this matters is related to the safety and danger of Qingzhou Prefecture. It is not enough to have a Zhuang Juren here in Qingzhou Prefecture. Who else can be invited to come out to uphold justice?"
Hearing this, Liu Peng immediately said, "Of course I'm asking Mr. Zhong Yu, Mr. Zhong to come forward. I have sent someone to invite the old prefect of Wang Daoyi and the old governor of Wang Jiguang!"
"Not enough, this is not enough!" Yang Guanguang, a future Taoist master, can be a real expert in the struggle for power: "Young Master Liu, is it OK for the Ding family in Zhucheng? If you agree, I will immediately let the Ding family send someone here."
The Ding family in Zhucheng is also a famous big family in Denglai Prefectures. Not only did they have a father and son Jinshi, but the entire family has at least a thousand Ding Zhuang. Although there are no living Jinshi in the family, they have great influence. In another time and space, some people even believe that the Ding family's former soldier, who had just passed away, Ding Weining is the legendary Lanling Xiaoxiaosheng, which is the real author of Jin Pingmei.
Of course, whether Ding Weining was born in Lanling Xiaoxiao can only be doubted. However, Ding Weining's beloved son, Ding Yaokang, the fifth young master of the Ding family, wrote a "Summary of Jin Ping Mei" in the early Qing Dynasty, which is recognized as the highest achievement among all Jin Ping Mei.
The Yang family in Zhaoyuan and the Ding family in Zhucheng are good at Tongjia, and they have close contacts from time to time, so Yang Guanguang made such a guarantee.
Zhuang Qian, who had been silent next to him, immediately interrupted and said, "I'm still a tourist who is thoughtful. Zhucheng Rizhao has friends from our banker, and the Ding family is even more of an old friend."
These big families in the East Three Prefectures have interactions with each other. The Dadian merchants and the Zhucheng Ding family are also good at each other and maintain extremely close contacts with each other. However, Zhuang Qian does not look at the overall situation of the entire Qingzhou Prefecture like Yang Guanguang, but only considers the interests of Juzhou itself.
Yang Guanguang continued, "Brother Zhuang Qian, Juzhou is governed by prefectures. You can't only come from the gentry of Juzhou. Rizhao and Yishui counties, you have to find a few friends to come!"
Juzhou is governed by prefectures, and it also governs two counties, Rizhao and Yishui. However, for people like Zhuang Qian, Juzhou is now difficult to protect itself and it is difficult to take into account the counties under its jurisdiction. However, after Yang Guanguang said this, he understood: "The power of the National People's Congress is great, let's have a good talk with Ma Daotai!"
Although Madugong is a sub-schedule of the right path of the sea and has almost unlimited supervision power on the ground of the three east governments and can be slandered by any problems, he is a mortal after all. After all, he is a gentry in so many places, especially with more than one Jinshi Ju, behind him, Madugong has to consider the weight.
Then Yang Guanguang continued, "Mr. Liu, I will help you stare at Ma Daotai. I don't believe that he will not reveal his strength and will have no problem?"
The key to finding Ma Daotai’s pain is that since Taoists are morally oriented, they naturally have the power to open fire like Taoists. Moreover, Taoists also have super killing weapons that Taoists do not have - that is the proof of free mind.
The biggest killer of the Qingliu in the late Ming Dynasty was the evidence of free-spiritedness. He dared to criticize everything, dared to criticize if there is evidence, dared to criticize if there is evidence, dared to criticize if there is no evidence, dared to criticize what he understands, and dared to criticize what he does not understand. Anyway, they are at the height of moral articles, and they can be invincible if they spray right or wrongly.
Now Yang Guanguang is preparing to use this big killer weapon. Even if he can't find Ma Daotai's painful foot, he will still spray Ma Daotai hard several times. It is best to spray Ma Daotai so that he can't take care of himself. If he can't spray successfully, it will not cost Yang Guanguang anything.
"Miu Miraculous!"
As long as the target of Yang Guanguang attack was not himself, everything would be easy to say. Liu Peng immediately said, "Okay, then Ma Daotai will be left to Guikunzhong to stare. Then we will see how the tourist brother will make a brilliant move!"
"Okay, okay!" Yang Guanguang also said proudly: "Don't worry, Mr. Liu, just leave this matter to me!"
It was urgent. Yang Guanguang and Yang Weiguang were preparing to reach a consensus with Liu Peng and return to Zhaoyuan County immediately. However, since the two sides reached a consensus on the issue of dealing with Madu Gong, it was really a hit and said, "Yang Guanguang, a Taoist scholar, immediately talked to Liu Peng about how to deal with Madu Gong."
A true Taoist master like him is naturally a master of slandering people. Not to mention that he is just a "sense" and slap people one after another, it really surprised Liu Peng. Even Zhuang Qian next to him said: "Brother Yang should go out to be an official as soon as possible. With Brother Yang's good skills, it would be a pity not to go out to be an official."
Therefore, it was too late to talk, so Yang Weiguang and Yang Guanguang brothers rested overnight at the entrance of Dongliang Village. However, when Yang Guanguang thought of fighting with a Taoist minister, he was immediately full of fighting spirit. As soon as the sky was dawn, he sat in the carriage with Yang Weiguang and rushed back. He was still very excited in the carriage: "Brother, this opportunity is rare. If we help him block the Ma Daotai, we will never have to worry about this life!"
After defeating Ma Daotai, the Yang family in Zhaoyuan not only gained face, but also had a wealth of money. Whether it was affordability, reputation, money, or power, Yang Weiguang was much more careful than Yang Guanguang: "Third brother, be careful! That's a Taoist minister!"
"So what about the Taoist minister? Isn't it just that I passed the Jinshi a few years earlier than my second brother. As long as I don't have any accidents, I will be a Taoist minister sooner or later."
The imperial examination was a lifelong pain for Yang Weiguang, the elder brother. His two younger brothers were both seeds of study, so he was frustrated every year in the exam room, so he changed the topic: "If this happens, I'm afraid he will offend Ma Daotai!"
"So what can you do if you offend it! The Taoist should be a good gentleman."
The prefectures and prefectures have such a consensus. Whether it is to patrol the road, guard the road or prepare for the troops, as long as they come down, they will find faults. If he deliberately finds faults, it will really be a fire of camps, and it will burn from the village to the county, prefectures and even the provinces, so that the local people can't deal with it and there is no need to do any serious things.
Therefore, an excellent Taoist should be a good man. He can take a quick look at the local area and pick some irrelevant questions and ask them to come to an end. Ma Taoist is so clear about his goal and attacks Liu Xiao County Magistrate with a clear goal. At that time, he will definitely cause countless bloody storms, which is definitely a violation of the rules.
But Yang Weiguang is not as enthusiastic as Yang Guanguang in this matter: "Third brother, we have to do this within our ability and stop at the right time. After all, he is the Lord Taoist!"
After all, the Yang family is not the new Wangcheng family. They are carrying such a strong Taoist platform head-on. Even if this Taoist platform is not the deputy envoy but the deputy inspector, they still have great pressure. However, Yang Guanguang said: "What are you afraid of? Anyway, there are Young Master Liu supporting us in everything. Don't forget that behind us are the gentry from the entire East Three Prefectures supporting us. Even if this matter is defeated, our Yang family will not suffer any loss."
After all, Yang Guanguang is a famous Neo-Confucianist. In his eyes, success or failure is not important. The key is what benefits can the Yang family get when participating in this matter. He has already figured it out. There are only benefits and no harm when the Yang family joins in this matter. Therefore, Yang Guanguang is particularly excited.
But Yang Guanguang's excitement did not last long. It was less than half an hour after their brothers returned home. Before they could explain it all, the Yang family's eyeliner in the county had already heard the news.
