Chapter 879
Speaking of this, Tang Zhongjie knew the experiences of these more than a dozen unfortunate imperial officials. They were different from the previous magistrates and magistrates, and were just miscellaneous positions such as inspectors, clerks, and ambassadors of Cang, so Liu Peng also gave a little mercy when he started.
For example, Liu Peng from Weixian, as soon as he arrived at the inspection department, he immediately summoned him to Jinzhou to discuss major events. As a result, although Liu refused to go to Jinzhou, he still made excuses to refuse. As a result, he encountered a thief in Jiangyang night attack on the inspection department and was broken one leg the next night.
But inspector Liu had no integrity. He knew that one of his legs had been broken by someone from Haibei Town, but the next day he asked someone to bandage it briefly. While moaning, he rushed to Jinzhou to get to Jinzhou in a sedan chair.
However, those officials who refused to follow the thief were not much better in the end. Even if they endured humiliation, they could not continue to stay in the office. However, Tang Zhongjie was absolutely disdainful of the rioters who recognized the thief as their fathers: "Eunuch Wei and the court will sooner or later deal with villains like Liu!"
But Liang Yuxuan frowned and asked, "Brother Tang, what should we do?"
"Yes, what should we do?"
When Tang Zhongjie heard this question, he was confused: "We must not be confused and recognize the thief as our father. This is a stain for life! I heard that there are as many as 40 or 50 officials in the imperial court who are now appointed in Jinzhou!"
This time, there were nearly a hundred new imperial officials appointed by the court in the three eastern prefectures. However, only six or seven of the nearly 100 imperial officials were successfully appointed. Moreover, they were qualified to receive Liu Peng's handwritten letters after they went to Jinzhou to take office.
As for the court officials who were waiting in Jinzhou to take office, five people have died of misfortune. More than ten court officials have been seriously injured because they refused to join Liu Peng because they were all sent by the Haibei Army. In addition, more than ten court officials have been frightened when they heard that they were going to fight head-on with Haibei Town, so they were both scared and dismissed and fled.
But Tang Zhongjie was unwilling to go to Jinzhou to follow the thief. He told Liang Yuxuan: "If you go to Jinzhou, it is equivalent to recognizing the thief as your father. From now on, the future will be destroyed. The court will not be able to restore such a stained sinner for the ages. Moreover, even if you go to Jinzhou to follow the thief, you may not be qualified to be appointed!"
According to the information that Tang Zhongjie found out, the court officials who were appointed to serve in the three eastern prefectures to visit Liu Peng in Jinzhou, they were not directly qualified to take office. On the contrary, Liu Peng was in a dilemma against these courts and completely used these officials as his subordinates.
What's worse is that these imperial officials were originally pillars of the country. Even if they had never been to the Hanlin Academy, they had been in charge of the six ministries or had been admitted to the Imperial College for a lot of hard work. However, Liu Peng let these fame be eliminated in one fell swoop, and he could only practice with Liu Peng.
Speaking of this, Tang Zhongjie was so angry that he told Liang Yuxuan: "We finally achieved success in 20 years of hard work. But now it's good. A little general wants us to do whatever he wants and don't treat us as a respectful person..."
He had already found out that after arriving in Jinzhou, he did not meet Liu Peng as a thief and was qualified to receive the appointment document. On the contrary, most newly appointed officials of the imperial court had to stay in Jinzhou honestly. Not only did they have to wait until Liu Peng was satisfied before they could take office, but they also had to participate in a so-called "study class" that they could only be qualified to take office after passing the study session.
During this period, although everyone was already a serious court official, they had to honestly learn all the rules of Haibei Town. What's worse is that no matter what specific arrangements Liu Peng had, everyone had to rush over and deal with them as soon as possible. They were just minor officials who were casually ordered by Liu Peng.
But after listening to Tang Zhongjie's introduction, Liang Yuxuan understood: "Brother Tang, isn't this equivalent to a library position in Haibei Town?"
What is a vocational position? Of course, he entered the Hanlin Academy. He and Tang Zhongjie were both famous and famous, but he didn't even pass the exam, so he could only take the Imperial College route. However, he also knew that the Jinshi who entered the Hanlin Academy in the Ming Dynasty was a real Jinshi. If he had good luck after the hall, he might be qualified to join the cabinet in a few years. Even if he was not lucky, he would be a candidate for prime minister.
Although Liu Peng was in the name of "study class" and "training", Liang Yuxuan still saw the trick, and this is the Hanlin Academy of the Haibei Army!
But Tang Zhongjie disagreed: "What is Hanlin Academy? This General Liu is lawless and does not take the court seriously. Brother Liang, Haibei Town is just Haibei Town. The court has mastered the world. What do you think we should do!"
This is the most tangled issue Tang Zhongjie is now. He knows that taking office is simply a way to die, especially Zhucheng, which is said to be the strongest place in the Haibei Army. With Liu Peng's words, the gentry and powerful people there will be immediately defeated and killed.
However, when Tang Zhongjie went to Jinzhou to attend a seminar, he felt that this was a gang with Haibei Town. Not to mention whether the court would let him go, Wei Zhongxian and the eunuch party would definitely not let him go. Moreover, the eunuch party is now in a big way with villains, so he will definitely die without a burial place.
Liang Yuxuan thought for a long time: "Anyway, we are still in Jinan Prefecture, so we can wait and see first, and then ask for information!"
They were speeding all the way through the first half of their tenure, but after leaving the Jinzhou Study Class, they decided to slow down and wait and see first. Therefore, after arriving in Jinan Prefecture, they stopped and rested for several days, and sent someone out to inquire about the specific news.
They only now know that no matter what kind of imperial court ordered officials to go to the East Three Prefectures and Yanzhou Prefecture, they had to go to Jinzhou before talking about it.
And now Liu Peng is absolutely lawless and does not take the investigation of the court and the Ministry of Personnel seriously. He will do whatever he wants. The Ministry of Personnel clearly gave you a mission to the history, but he would like you to be the magistrate. If you offend Liu Peng in Jinzhou, even if you are a magistrate, Liu Peng will still ask you to go to the office to be the ambassador of the rank of the government to practice first.
Moreover, the court asked you to be the county magistrate of Zhucheng. Liu Peng said one thing, you must go to Zhaoyuan to serve as the history of the history. The court only asked you and Fengcang's deputy envoy, but Liu Peng had a way to make you appointed as the magistrate of Huangxian. Anyway, it was lawless. The court's orders could only serve in Jinan Prefecture and Dongchang Prefecture.
"This Jinzhou is really not allowed to go!"
Tang Zhongjie said this: "We went to Jinzhou, and from then on we have been given a false post to destroy it!"
Another colleague who was waiting to take office in Jinan also agreed with him. He told everyone: "Minister Tang is right. Jinzhou cannot be gone. After going to study hard for the past twenty years, he became useless!"
But if you don’t go to Jinzhou, you will not be able to take office there at all. Everyone has found out clearly. If you refuse to go to Jinzhou to take office directly, even if you don’t fall out of the horse and die, you will end up with a broken leg by a thief in Jiangyang. Liang Yuxuan is already talking about the latest news: "I heard that Zhao Dianshi from Lianchangyi County was just fallen and died a few days ago!"
This is the sixth court official who died as soon as he took office in the past two months. As for the court officials who were seriously injured or forced to abstain from office, there are more court officials. Moreover, a few days ago, they just arrived in Jinan, Liu Peng sent someone to say hello to them to go to Jinzhou first.
Everyone knows that since Liu Peng sent someone to say hello to everyone to Jinzhou, taking office on his own would be a dead end.
This is a completely unsolvable question. Liang Yuxuan suddenly thought of a way out: "Since we can't go to Jinzhou, can I take the path of Commissioner Ding?"
A few days ago, Liang Yuxuan knew nothing about the actual situation of Yanzhou Prefecture, but after a few days, he had now figured out what kind of force the Yanzhou Prefecture had deployed. Although the superior in Yanzhou Prefecture had a river governor and several Taoist ministers, the real words were still the representative of Haibei Town in Yanzhou Prefecture, Commissioner Ding Gong Ding.
Although Ding Gong had only 800 water patrol teams, he was very effective in speaking in Yanzhou Prefecture, so Liang Yuxuan couldn't help but think of a way to save the country on a curve.
Although he did not visit General Liu Pengliu in Jinzhou, as long as he went to see Commissioner Ding and received the acquiescence of Commissioner Ding, Haibei Town would definitely have acquiescence towards his appointment, and he would be able to take office immediately.
This is a way to be both good and good. It will not betray the court and the eunuch party, nor will it seek death. Tang Zhongjie's eyes lit up: "Yes, I can visit Mr. Yang Guangwen and Mr. Yang. As long as he nods, I will dare to take office!"
He now knows what kind of person Yang Guangwen is. He is not just a simple origin from an official chief!
Another question was asked: "Since everyone decided not to go to Jinzhou, they went directly to meet Yang Guangwen, Commissioner Ding, Yao Changgong and others, what should they do?"
But Tang Zhongjie laughed: "We are officials of the imperial court. Can't we find several ways to ask for help on the ground in Shandong?"
Now Ding Gong has received more than a dozen letters in one go, all of which are the imperial officials who are preparing to take office in Yanzhou Prefecture to come and pay their respects to him.
According to the official rules of the Ming Dynasty, such prayers were completely inappropriate. After all, Ding Gong is just a vain now. Not to mention a "official official", he is not even a "official officer". The name of him as a "commissioned officer" is just a miscellaneous position granted by Haibei Town for cheap actions.
