Chapter 1342: Reorganizing the Army
“Currently, our Jiangsu and Zhejiang Provincial Police Department has jurisdiction over the four patrol roads of East Zhejiang, Haiyou, Zhejiang and Jinhua. Due to the special status of Southern Zhili, there is no provision of procuratorate. Because of the division of the Chief Envoy and the Chief Envoy, each patrol route within its territory is managed by the adjacent Chief Envoy and the Chief Envoy. The Envoy Department is in charge of it, and our Jiangsu and Zhejiang Provincial Department of Punishment and Inspection is in charge of one of them. Our two deputy envoys and three ministers each have a patrol department. The manpower is just right. It was originally difficult for Zihou to do his duties, but now there is no need to worry. . At present, the Japanese invaders in Jiangnan have a heavy responsibility to prevent Japanese invaders. Judging from the reality of these years, the health The army was already out of service and had little success in the face of the raging Japanese pirates. The imperial court was extremely disappointed with the guards, so it specially appointed deputy envoys or ministers who had the ability to "also oversee the state guards" to lead the militia. To help prevent Japanese pirates, Zihou, you will have a special imperial edict to "organize military preparations" and have the ability to command the army. Rights. In the future, Zihou will be responsible for the military preparations of our Jiangsu and Zhejiang Provincial Criminal Investigation Department. I hope Zihou will carry forward Jingnan’s achievements and make persistent efforts to do his part for Jiangsu and Zhejiang, which are bullied by Japanese pirates."
In the end, Nie Tai made arrangements for Zhu Pingan's responsibilities and handed over the military equipment in Jiangsu and Zhejiang to Zhu Pingan.
This was what Zhu Pingan expected and what Zhu Pingan hoped for, so Zhu Pingan happily accepted the appointment.
"I will do my best to live up to the expectations of the government." Zhu Pingan accepted the order and expressed his stance.
"Good!" Zeng Tai nodded with satisfaction, then picked up the teacup on the side and took a sip.
The ancients had an implicit rule of serving tea to see off guests. Besides, we had just interrupted Zhentai’s lunch by saying goodbye, and we had been chatting for so long. If we don’t eat anymore, Zhentai’s lunch would probably be cold. Zhu Ping’an Say goodbye wisely and leave.
Next, Zhu Pingan was led by Chu Xiong to meet with the two deputy envoys of the government office and two other ministers.
After going around, Zhu Pingan had a brief understanding of the leadership of the Jiangsu and Zhejiang Provincial Criminal Investigation Division.
Master Nian Tai is also the envoy to the inspection. His surname is Zhang, his given name is Zijing, and his given name is Jugang. He is fifty-eight this year and his ancestral home is Hunan. Zhu Pingan's first impression of him was that he was simple, kind and responsible for his work.
The two deputy envoys, one named Hu Jin, also named Tongda, is fifty-five years old this year and his ancestral home is Henan; the other is named Bai Jinhu, also named Jincheng, he is 61 years old this year and his ancestral home is Lingnan. Due to the short visit time, Zhu Pingan did not have a deep impression on them. Hu Jin was more indifferent, and Bai Jinhu was more worldly.
Besides Chu Xiong, the other two ministers are Zhang Chufeng who is forty-five years old and Zhuo Yan who is forty-eight years old. Zhang Chufeng is somewhat similar to Zhang Juzheng, with spotless clothes and elegant and handsome appearance; Zhuo Yan is the opposite. Zhuo Yan is of medium build, not only has his face a bit paralyzed, but also has a somewhat fierce look.
This is Zhu Pingan’s impression of his colleagues in the future.
"Brother Zhu, let's go. Big brother will take you around our official office to familiarize yourself with the environment." Chu Xiong led Zhu Ping'an around, drank a cup of tea, and took a short rest, with an enthusiastic expression on his face. said.
"I don't dare to ask for my ears, even if I wish to do so." Zhu Ping'an nodded.
Next, Chu Xiong took Zhu Pingan to browse and introduce the government office, while briefly introducing the people and things in the government office to Zhu Pingan. Of course, all the introductions are superficial and superficial, and the deeper aspects are not covered.
The four official offices of Jiangsu and Zhejiang inspectors are really beyond Zhu Ping'an's expectation. They not only have the majesty of official uniforms, but also have comfort. The outer hall is built full of high official majesty, while the inner hall, especially the back house, is built It is just like a garden, or it is built according to the standards of a garden. It has wonderful winding paths, beautiful landscape pavilions and artificial lakes, and so on. The independent hall where Zhu Ping'an was divided was actually a small garden. There was a small pool of clear water in the courtyard, a small bridge and flowing water, a small pavilion with flying eaves, green bamboos and green trees, and a corridor with beauties connecting it. It was used as the official's inner residence. Zhu Ping'an all It feels luxurious.
"Zi Houjue, how is our official office?" Chu Xiong asked with a smile after leading Zhu Ping'an to browse the official offices of the Jiangsu and Zhejiang Procuratorates.
"High, big, superior" Zhu Ping'an replied
Hearing this, Chu Xiong couldn't help but be startled, "Tall, superior, superior", what does it mean? ! Zhu Ping'an realized that he was not a modern person and could not understand these three words, so he explained, "high-end, grand, and upscale"
"Haha, high-end, classy, classy, seconds!" After hearing Zhu Ping'an's explanation, Chu Xiong couldn't help but smile and extend his thumb, "Brother Zhu deserves to be the number one scholar, these three words are brilliant!"
"Brother Chu, thank you very much." Zhu Ping'an said modestly.
“As far as the environment is concerned, there are few yamen in Jiangnan that are better than our Jiangsu and Zhejiang Public Security Bureau.”
Chu Xiong said confidently.
Zhu Ping'an nodded, not doubting Chu Xiong's words, because the Jiangsu and Zhejiang Chasi Yamen did indeed rank first among the Yamen he had seen. Generally, Yamen have a sense of age, or are dilapidated. Luxurious yamen like the Jiangsu and Zhejiang Jianchasi Yamen are rare among the yamen.
"Brother Zhu, in fact, we all should be grateful to the person who took office - Mr. Wang Sixiao Wang. The Yamen we live in now was built by Mr. Wang after he took office." Chu Xiong said with emotion.
"Where is Mr. Wang now?" Zhu Pingan nodded and asked.
"Ahem, Mr. Wang is in the capital now" Chu Xiong coughed and pointed to the north.
"Master Wang has been promoted to the capital? When I was in the capital."
Zhu Ping'an said slowly while thinking about the person named Wang who could correspond to the number in the capital.
The inspector is a third-rank official. If he is promoted to the capital, he must be at least a third-rank official of the same level. Capital officials are half a rank higher than local officials. The ministers of the six departments are of the third rank, and the deputy imperial envoys of the Inspectorate are also of the third rank. The highest rank of the six subjects is the seventh rank, which is too low. The rank of the principals of the five temples is also the third rank, which is too low. The most likely ones are the Six Ministries and the Inspectorate. When Zhu Ping'an was in the capital, he had more dealings with the Six Ministries and the Inspectorate when he was on duty at the Hanlin Academy and Wuyi Palace. The adults really have no impression at all, which is a bit inappropriate.
“Ahem, I didn’t get promoted to Beijing, but I squatted in the prison in the capital.” Chu Xiong coughed again.
Huh? !
Squatting in the sky prison? !
Zhu Ping'an was startled when he heard this, and the corner of his mouth couldn't help but twitch. No wonder he had no impression of him. He was squatting in the sky prison.
"Why?" Zhu Ping'an was about to ask why, when he suddenly looked at Chu Xiong with a clear understanding, and asked tentatively, "Master Wang is good at repairing official offices?" The folk proverb "Don't repair the shop" is, firstly, because he only serves as an official for a few years and is just a passer-by. Naturally, he does not need to bother to repair the yamen for the next official; secondly, because of clean government, the yamen was repaired in the old days. , it is inevitable to waste people and money, and recruiting or levying people's power can easily lead to criticism; the third is authority, which is also the most important. Yamen cannot be built just by you. First, the imperial court has strict regulations on Yamen at all levels, and no overstepping is allowed. In both cases, local officials did not have the right to use financial funds to build yamen without permission. They had to report to the court for instructions. Only after obtaining permission could they build yamen within the permitted scope.
If you are good at building government offices, you will be demoted if you are not serious, and if you are serious, you will be jailed.
So in ancient times, it was basically rare to see such super-standard office buildings in modern places.
That's why Zhu Ping'an believed that Mr. Wang was thrown into the sky prison probably because he was good at repairing official offices.
"Ahem, it's not considered good at repair. Lord Wang reported to the court before repairing the official office, and repaired it only after getting approval." Chu Xiong coughed and said, seeing Zhu Ping'an's burning eyes, he continued, "But Lord Wang The application was for 50,000 guan, but the court only approved 6,000 guan.”
Zhu Pingan suddenly understood.
6000 can't build such a high-end official office. This amount of money is only enough to repair one door at most. Not even 50,000 guan can build such a grand official office.
This is no different from repairing an official office without permission, and it even carries the responsibility of deceiving the superiors and bullying the subordinates. In addition, Mr. Wang, as the sentencing inspector who is responsible for checking and supervising, is even more aware of the law and breaking the law. It's not surprising that he would be sent to prison if his crime was increased to one level. (End of this chapter)
