Volume Two, Chapter 80, Jiajing's Vision

Zhang Yue's courtesy name was Weiqiao and his pseudonym was Jingfeng. He was a Jinshi in the 12th year of Zhengde. He was first appointed as a disciple. He was beaten to the court for admonishing Emperor Wuzong's southern tour.

Jiajing succeeded to the throne, Zhang Yue was restored to his post and was promoted to the right department of the Xingren Department. Later, he was transferred to the Nanjing Ministry of War Wuxuan Yuanwailang and promoted to the Ministry of War.

During the ceremony, Zhang Yue was demoted to Guangxi for being a deputy minister of the cabinet because he disagrees with Zhang Cong, the chief minister of the cabinet. Later, Zhang Cong demoted Zhang Yue to Guangdong salt class to the Guangdong salt class for the excuse of Zhang Yue not using the new law.

Although Zhang Yue was repeatedly demoted and had no complaints, he was still diligent in office. As soon as he took office, he eliminated all kinds of salt ills and promoted the implementation of "using land to handle salt and using acres of taxes" to put salt on the right track.

Perhaps Jiajing valued its resilience, or in order to warn Zhang Cong, who was becoming increasingly arrogant, he actually transferred Zhang Yue back to the Censorate and served as the censor. He then promoted him to the Right Chief Censor and governed Yunyang.

It should be said that when Jiajing was not confused, he had a good vision. Zhang Yue was indeed a honest and honest capable minister. This can be seen from the difficult situation of the Zhang family. He was the kind of good official who would rather be poor at home than reach out to be corrupt.

Whether it is a student or a salt course, it is a position that is easier to make money, not to mention the Yunyang Fuzhi. As long as he raises his hand slightly, he can earn tens of thousands of taels a year. The Zhang family will not find ways to do it because of financial difficulties, and even sacrifice the happiness of his daughter for this.

Such honest and honest officials are rare these days. Jiajing can see him at first sight, which shows that his vision is quite good.

Immediately afterwards, the appointment of another official can further prove Jiajing's unique vision.

This appointment is actually related to Yang Cong. Because Yang Cong designed that the corruption case of Shanxi Governor Chen Da was exposed, Chen Da was directly executed by the crime, and the position of Shanxi Governor was vacant.

At this moment, the remnants of the Northern Yuan Dynasty were raging in the northwest, so the position of governor of Shanxi naturally could not be suspended for a long time. Jiajing made another wise decision and directly promoted the Censor of the Censorate. Zeng Xian, the Liaodong Censor, was the right assistant censor of the Censorate of the Censorate, and the governor of Shanxi.

Zeng Xian was amazing. Although he was a civil servant, he knew about military affairs, was proficient in strategy, and was good at using troops. During his inspection of Liaodong, he suppressed the Liaoyang mutiny and captured Zhao Jie of Liaoyang, Yu Man'er of Guangning and Fushun's rebel soldiers. He hung his head to the border city, which made Liaodong very stable.

Such a capable official actually has little qualifications, because Zeng Xian was a Jinshi in the eighth year of Jiajing. After three years of being the magistrate of Changle, he was promoted to the Censor of the Censorate and immediately inspected Liaodong.

In other words, Zeng Xian has only been in the official career for six years in total!

Luo Hongxian, the top scholar in the eighth year of Jiajing, was still standing still in the Hanlin Academy. Zeng Xian, who was born in the third grade, has been promoted to six levels and directly became a chief official in the border area. It has to be said that Jiajing has a very good vision. As long as he is a talented person, he can basically be reused if he is attracted by his eyes.

Unfortunately, due to the deliberate suppression of Zhang Cong and Xia Yan, the nine top scholars of the two dynasties of Zhengde and Jiajing, including dozens of talents in the first and second grades, did not have the chance to catch his eye. If this were not the case, the Ming Dynasty would probably have a real prosperity in the early stages of Jiajing.

Of course, it was Zhang Cong and Xia Yan who tried hard to suppress these people that they had a day to stand out. If these people were allowed to emerge, they would basically have nothing to do.

Zeng Xian was not deliberately suppressed because he was born in the Third Academic School and was able to show his strengths, because it was basically impossible for the Jinshi who came from the Third Academic School to enter the cabinet. Apart from the strangeness of Xia Yan, there was basically no situation in the history of the Ming Dynasty when the Third Academic School entered the cabinet.

Zeng Xian is also a strange thing. He was born in the third grade and became a rank of officials in six years. It was rare in the history of the Ming Dynasty.

However, it is hard to say whether this kind of thing is a blessing or a disaster.

In history, Zeng Xian climbed to the high position of a rank of a rank of ranks of ranks of ranks in six years and became the governor of Shandong. He was then promoted to the governor of Shaanxi, responsible for commanding the army to fight against the Northern Yuan cavalry. As soon as he took office, he changed the decline of the Ming army and repeatedly defeated the Altan cavalry, which made the remnants of the Northern Yuan dare not invade easily. He even proposed to recover Hetao, sank the remnants of the Northern Yuan on the grasslands in the desert in one fell swoop, and made the plan of long-term stability in the northern border of the Ming Dynasty.

Unfortunately, he was just in the fight between Yan Song and Xia Yan. In order to pull Xia Yan off, Yan Song directly joined forces with the Hou Qiuluan of Xianning who had been defeated repeatedly, and falsely accused Zeng Xianxian and Xia Yan of lies to report military merits. As a result, Zeng Xian, a great hero who made the remnants of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, was framed by his own people and escorted back to Beijing, beheaded and displayed in public. His family was exiled for three thousand miles to be occupied by the border!

The Zeng Xian case can be said to be one of the biggest unjust cases in a famous dynasty. A generation of famous generals became victims of the fierce battle between Xia Yan and Yan Song. It has to be said that he is really a big cup of tea.

Of course, the situation at this time is very different from that in history. Xia Yan did not successfully become the chief minister of the cabinet. Yan Song seemed to be still in Nanjing. Zeng Xian served as the governor of Shandong but the governor of Shanxi. It can be said that history has changed. So, will this strange injustice happen again?

I have to say that history always has amazing similarities. It was at this time that Yan Song went to Beijing to report his work!

He didn't know how many pairs of Qing Ci he presented, and soon won Jiajing's favor.

At this time, Jiajing was also confused as in history. He actually moved Yan Song to the Minister of Rites, directly making Xia Yan a bare-rooted Grand Secretary of the Cabinet.

Perhaps, he was punishing Xia Yan because Xia Yan's performance during this period really felt a bit arrogant. Jiajing might just want to tell Xia Yan through this move that if you can't do it, some people will replace him. Don't know who you are once you succeed.

Yan Song didn't know what methods he used, not only won Jiajing's favor, but also made Xia Yan very happy. After the Minister of Rites was taken away, Xia Yan was not only not angry, but was extremely excited all day long, as if he had a left and right arm.

Perhaps, he thought Yan Song was here to help him deal with the Yangming lineage, but he didn't know that Yan Song was much more cruel than him. In order to take power, this guy not only caught the enemy and fought to death, but sometimes even his own people.

Xia Yan didn't know that this was his biggest failure in his life. He had brought himself to a king of hell!

With Yan Song taking office, the exchange of officials from the two capitals slowly came to an end, and the Beijing Chase was almost over, and the next step was to make a big plan for local officials.

Jiajing could not control this plan throughout the whole process, because there were too many local officials in the Ming Dynasty. If the magistrate, county magistrate, county education and other sesame officials were included, there were tens of thousands of major officials involved in the plan, so he naturally could not understand and mobilize them one by one.

Jiajing may think that he does not need to pay attention to it one by one, and there will be no problems, because he has already arranged the cabinet, the Ministry of Personnel and the Censorate, who are in charge of the plan, have arranged it.

The cabinet chief Li Shi is a typical good guy, and Xia Yan is staring at him, so he should not do anything randomly.

Zhang Bangqi, the Minister of Personnel, was just transferred from Nanjing, and the Ministry of Personnel has many Xia Yan's one-party official checks and balances, so there should be no forks.

Tu Qiao, the left censor of the Censorate, joined forces with Xia Yan, but with Zhang Yue, a honest and honest official, watching him, he would not make any forks.
