The unspoken rules of Qing Dynasty officialdom Even the Han Chen, who supervised him, did not dare to offend the bannermen easily
During his reign of 63 years, Qianlong carried out unprecedented obstruction and suppression of Han ministers. Although the Qianlong Dynasty also had Han governors, the number was extremely rare and was regarded in officialdom"Glory"。
It was difficult for Han Fuyu, a Han minister, to become a governor, and even if he did, his situation would be very unpleasant. In the past, due to the severe oppression of the Han people by the Manchu Qing Dynasty, the Han people did not dare to alarm the governor or even the Manchu general army, did not dare to look at Qianlong's face, and did not dare to speak easily.
The Manchus defeated the Han Chinese.
In November of the thirtieth year of Qianlong, Gao Jin, the governor of Liangjiang, suffered from malaria, and Qianlong stated that Suzhou Tongzhi Duan was successful"Paperwork cannot be self-made", so Gong Yu and other ** subordinates and Duan Chenggong did not know.
Qianlong is not good at joking, he saw Gao Jin's flaws at a glance, and thought that Gao Jin deliberately covered it up. Because malaria usually occurs every few days, no matter how severe it is, it will not leave him bedridden, let alone delay important official business.
Qianlong soon ordered the execution of some high-ranking ** in Jiangsu, especially Zhu Kuiyang, the governor of Jiangsu. The main case is Zhu Kuiyang.
Zhu Kuiyang was a minister of the Han nationality, and Qianlong did not have a good impression of him. According to the literature, Zhu Kuiyang started as the governor of a province, was recognized as his boss in several major conspiracies, and was summoned by Qianlong many times.
However, Qianlong always believed that Zhu Kuiyang was not a great talent, and put forward relevant opinions several times, such as"People are smart, small"、"At the same time, solve the problem"、"It can be moved to the Ministry of Civil Affairs"、"This person is not applicable, it seems to be abolished by him, and the Ministry of Rings (press: minister) can do it but then cannot do it"Wait.
In Zhu Kuiyang's eyes, Qianlong could only give the reporter a dry look, nothing more. However, Zhu Kuiyang, known as the Qianlong Emperor, dared to show favor on the issue of Duan Sheng. As a result, Emperor Qianlong ordered Zhu Kuiyang and Sun Chuanke, the prefect of Suzhou, to be dismissed and arrested, and sent to Beijing for questioning.
In fact, Zhu Kuiyang is still considered a competent bureaucrat, and his public image has not been bad for decades. He said that the reason why he did this was because he did not want to offend Mingde, the governor of Liangjiang. Mingde was a typical Manchurian aristocratic origin, and he had an older brother who lived in the same period as the governor of Shanxi.
The Chancellor and the Governor were also in a worse situation.
Duan Shengcheng is also Hanchen. When he was the governor of Shanxi, he was protected by the governor of Shanxi and his cronies, and naturally he could not avoid the transfer of benefits.
About three years ago, Duan Shengcheng gave Rehe Palace 10,000 taels of silver as travel expenses.
In return, political performance was ignored and fraud was ignored. Surprisingly, Duan Shanxi took the silver in the Yangqu County treasury as his own, and when he later found out that it was short, he not only blamed himself, but also blamed Shanxi County.
In the twenty-ninth year of Qianlong, that is, two years after the misappropriation of **, Duan Shengcheng was promoted to the Tongzhi of Suzhou Prefecture (second from left, from the fifth grade).
At that time, the governor of Liangjiang was the Han minister Zhuang Yougong, who was born in a scholarly family and served as a minister of the Qing Dynasty, known for his honesty and ability. It is rumored that he was not favored by Duan Shengcheng during his tenure.
But Zhuang Yougong knew about Duan Shengcheng, his eyes widened, and he said to the prefect of Suzhou:"If his family's subordinates didn't admit that Duan Shengcheng knew about the stolen goods, everything would be the same. "If the servants of his family did not admit that Duan Shengcheng knew about the stolen goods, everything would be the same"。"If the servants of his family did not admit that Duan Shengcheng knew about the stolen goods, everything would be the same"。
In other words, Zhuang Yougong took over this big case, which was intended to turn the big thing into a small one and a small one into a small one.
The governor of Jiangsu spoke, and the Civil Affairs Department below couldn't be more serious. The Mingde brothers and his ** manipulated behind the scenes, hoping to ensure Duan Qirui's success, so the Jiangsu prosecutor could only be the handler of the main case.
Shortly after Duan Shengcheng's trial, Zhuang Yougong was removed from his post as governor of Liangjiang and replaced by Mingde. Qianlong then rebuked Zhuang Yougong, thus"In fact, he was reinstated"。
It is said that Zhuang Yougong said:"When officials leave office, why bother to tie the knot"。In the officialdom of the Qing Dynasty, there has always been such a rule, that is, the general principle is that if there is no problem with the resignation, do not increase the difficulty of the work of the incumbent. Similarly, the successor should not make things difficult for the outgoing one, otherwise he will deviate from the norms of officialdom and be spurned by his colleagues.
Of course, Zhuang Yougong didn't persuade Qianlong to listen to it, and even said it for his lack of progress. In other words, the relationship between Manchu and Han, Zhuang Yougong actually didn't want to be a Han official, but he didn't dare to say it easily, and in his heart, the two Manchurians were open.
In the successful trial of Duan Qirui, Qianlong behaved very harshly, and all the ** were punished accordingly. Even Liu Yong, the governor of Taiyuan, Shanxi, was charged"Shielding subordinates", almost lost his life.
As the Duan Chenggong case shows, the status of the Han ** in the Qianlong Dynasty is very unpleasant, especially in the group of governors, the Han ** is always considered inappropriate, because in the eyes of the Manchurian aristocracy, the Qing Dynasty is the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and the hearts of non-our people must be different.
