When the yamen were back and about to report to the magistrate, they suddenly saw the magistrate tied up and chopped his head with a knife.

Blood was sprayed out, hot, and the heads rolled onto the ground, covered with ashes stuck to the blood.

Zhang Decai's eyes were still wide open, and his broken neck was still bleeding, and the flesh was also covered in dust.

The mood of hunting was completely gone, Chongzhen just wanted to go back to Beijing.

By the way, he took Zhang Decai's head back and let someone hang it at the city gate.

Zhang Decai's death spread around the officialdom in Beijing around darkness.

There are all kinds of reasons. Some privately say that the emperor is moody and kills people without reason.

Some people say that Zhang Decai was caught greedy for money.

Anyway, there are different opinions.

But before dark, Chongzhen brought Liu Zongzhou Xuan, the prefect of Shuntian Prefecture, into the palace for questioning.

When he arrived, the cabinet ministers, the Privy Council, and the six ministers were all there.

"See Your Majesty."

Chongzhen didn't say anything, let alone let him get up.

"Do you know what I'm asking for?"

"I don't know, please let Your Majesty make it clear."

In fact, Liu Zongzhou had already guessed that it was related to Zhang Decai, but he just pretended to be confused with his understanding.

"Zhang Decai is dead."

This is inexplicable. If it were an ordinary person, Liu Zongzhou would probably disdain to answer, but if the emperor said that, he would have to answer carefully.

"I wonder what crime Zhang Decai committed?"

"Eight times the extra mission! I will ignore my imperial edict, how can I keep him!"

Liu Zongzhou's heart sank: 8 times the extra sect!

No wonder Zhang Decai's head was hung at the city gate.

In an instant, Liu Zongzhou began to sweat coldly in his palms and he hurriedly said, "I am guilty!"

"You are indeed guilty, but your sin is different from Zhang Decai's."

"Zhang Decai knew that I had issued a government order that would never be assigned, but he still dared to add more under my nose! He dared to say that he was adding more, so it was natural for him to add more!"

The emperor's voice echoed in the Qianqing Palace, full of majesty, and everyone felt the emperor's anger.

"And you will not go for a review after you explain the matter!"

In the yamen of Daxing County, Chongzhen read the government orders sent by Shuntian Prefecture. This time, the tax collection requirement did emphasize that it was not necessary to add additional entries.

But is it over just by emphasizing it?

Then it is too simple for this official to be a microphone. In this way, everyone will become an official.

Liu Zongzhou hurriedly said, "I am guilty! Please punish me!"

"You have a salary of half a year. You don't have to do this as the prefect of Shuntian Prefecture. Do you have any objections?"

"Thunder, rain and dew are all the kindness of yourselves. I thank Your Majesty for the kindness of yourselves."

"Xuanqiu Hejia."

Soon, Qiu Hejia came in.

Qiu Hejia is just the head of the Ministry of War, but he is not an ordinary person.

During the Apocalypse period, he participated in the quellation of Anbangyan Rebellion.

During the Chongzhen Dynasty, he performed very well in the Jisi Change.

Just say that Huang Taiji retreated north and recovered the four cities of Yongping, Zunhua, Qian'an and Luanzhou. His contributions were very great, and he was definitely no less than those governors and generals.

In history, in the fourth year of Chongzhen, he served as the governor of Ji Liao, participated in the Battle of Xiaolinghe, defeated Jiannu, and participated in the bloody battle to defend Jinzhou, repel Jiannu, and defend Dalinghe City.

But due to his health, he fell ill and had to go back to Beijing, intending to retire and return home, but died of illness in Beijing the following year.

This person was considered a talent in the late Ming Dynasty, but his life was too short.

It is said that there are also his stone statues in Shanhaiguan in the 21st century?

He has a characteristic, which is that his methods of doing things are stronger.

Otherwise, how could a civil servant take charge of the army and win a great victory?

Which of those big-headed soldiers and officers in the army is a good person?

After Qiu Hejia came in, he said, "I will meet your Majesty, Sheng'an!"

"Get up and talk."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

"I have removed Liu Zongzhou's position as the prefect of Shuntian Prefecture. The reason for the removal is very simple. 8 times the additional mission in Daxing County! The magistrate of Daxing Zhang Decai's head is now hanging at the South City Gate."

Chongzhen's tone was calm and he couldn't hear too many emotional fluctuations.

"Now the position of the prefect of Shuntian Prefecture is empty. I need to find someone with both moral integrity and talent. I think you are the most suitable."

Qiu Hejia was slightly stunned. He did not expect that the emperor would ask him to come and directly give him the official position of the prefect of Shuntian Prefecture.

He is the head of the Ministry of War and a sixth-rank official.

The prefect of Shuntian Prefecture is equivalent to the mayor of Beijing in later generations. He was a third-rank official in the Ming Dynasty, and was at the same level as the minister and a senior official at the deputy minister level!

This time, you will directly upgrade to level three!

No one else expressed his opinion or spoke.

Qiu Hejia hurriedly knelt on the ground: "I thank the emperor for his wrong love, what kind of virtue can the foolish minister do?"

"Youqing Qiu doesn't have to refuse. You see, no one has any objections, which means that you are what the human heart wants and you have a lot of contributions."

Cao Yubian was the first to stand up and said, "Your Majesty is wise, I also think Lord Qiu is the most suitable."

As soon as he said this, the other ministers were very disdainful.

Cao Yubian, Cao Yubian, when did you become an emperor's dog?

It's really chilling!

After he said this, Zhou Yanru also listed: "I also think that Lord Qiu is a pillar of the country."

Seeing this, Qiu Hejia was favored, so the shameless people stood up and took the opportunity to sell their face and do things well with each other in the future.

Now, Wang Yongguang, the Minister of Personnel, also said: "Mr. Qiu is indeed a rare talent."

This is reality. Once you gain power, everyone will come to support you.

But if one day you accidentally fall, the person who praises you before will come out and step on you first.

This has always been the case in the power struggle.

Chongzhen said: "Then this matter is settled."

After explaining this, Chongzhen waved his sleeves and said, "I'll be here today."

The ministers left the palace.

Then is this the end of this matter?

Of course not!

Isn’t this a new official’s three-in-one slaughter?

With Zhang Chen's personality, he must at least have another person in Shuntian Mansion.

Having said that, why use Qiu Hejia?

In essence, Qiu Hejia is still hard-working and has strong execution ability.

Next, Chongzhen planned to test a package of his new policies in Beijing, so there must be someone with strong means to help him implement it.

When the test is successful in Beijing, a new policy pioneer will begin to be implemented elsewhere.

This is actually a plan for the future.

As for Liu Zongzhou, if something happens, it is definitely inevitable that he will be dismissed from office.

But Liu Zongzhou is definitely useful.

This is Zhang Chen's style. Everyone has their own uses, even a piece of shit in the pit is useful.

Liu Zongzhou's biggest weakness is that his scholar's aura is relatively strong and his methods of doing things are insufficient.

However, the biggest advantage is that this person is really a decent person, the same as Li Biao's kind, and has his own principles in his heart.

But unlike Li Biao's weakness, Liu Zongzhou has a tough personality. You said he can do it, but what he lacks is just means.

So what is suitable for such a person?

Suitable for supervision!

To do administrative management, you need very strong management skills, human heart control ability, and coordination ability.

For example, after the policy is notified, we must constantly review and summon the people below to make regular reports, use various means to let subordinates implement it as soon as possible, and balance the distribution of interests between subordinates.

Obviously, Zhang Decai didn't take Liu Zongzhou's words seriously at all, because he did not take good care of his subordinates.

But supervision is different.

I don’t have to do anything else, I don’t have to be distracted by other things, nor do I have to obey me, because we are not in the relationship between superiors and subordinates.

I just stared at you. I think you have any problems, so I will criticize you!

Moreover, people like Liu Zongzhou who have their own principles are most suitable for supervision work.
