Zhuang Yougong's early political road was smooth sailing. The first time I saw Qianlong, I left a good impression on the emperor. "On the entrance examination day, the public policy has a cloud: don't be a war horse, be a phoenix in the sunrise", which won the favor of the emperor. "These two words were quite memorized at the time." Qianlong saw that his expression was concise and his face lit up. He gave it and gave it. The next day, I was ordered to go straight to Shangshufang. " Qianlong five years (1740) full-time lecturer, moved to teaching staff. 1744, moved to Guanglu Temple to find Ding Fu's worries. 1746 Bachelor of Cabinet, right assistant minister of Ministry of War. 1748 Jiangsu magistrate studies politics. 1750 in the first month, the assistant minister of the household department was appointed to fill the post of examiner after obtaining the provincial examination in Jiangnan. 175 1 year, he was still the prefect of Jiangsu's academic administration and awarded the governor of Jiangsu as a local official. ?
Zhuang is diligent and loves the people, and "vows to be diligent and self-motivated". Since 1752 became the governor of Jiangsu Province, "I have been in Guangxi for six years, seeing my family during the day and managing documents at night, but I still missed a lot." 1753 at the turn of summer and autumn, floods occurred in Huaiyang counties, and he personally went to inspect and pay pensions. After that, "I got a letter from Cao Cao to cut the stone by 1.2 million, and gave five million and two thousand silver for relief, and the people won the Soviet Union." /kloc-in the summer of 0/756, many diseases and epidemics occurred in the area under his jurisdiction, and the banker took the lead in donating money to help the people tide over the difficulties. Historical records record that he "donated the first salary so that the sick can get medicine." The dead, to ". Zhuang's life is relatively simple. When he was governor of Fujian in his later years, he warned Jinjiang people not to come to him in advance. When a clansman asked him, he sent his men to stop him and refused: "I am the minister of border defense, so I should avoid suspicion and wait until this day to meet again. Now I dare not." "Zhuang's practice finally won people's understanding." When it comes to fairness, everyone in Jinjiang clan will cry at first, saying that fairness of fairness is unattainable. " ?
During his tenure as governor of Jiangsu, one thing almost cost him a respectable life. At that time, Zhu Xu of Fengxing County committed the crime of murder in court and should be hanged according to law. Zhu wrote a letter to atone for his sins, and you Gong agreed to Zhu's request in order to alleviate his financial difficulties. However, Zhuang did not ask for instructions from the central authorities. It was not until 1756 that Zhuang left the governor of Jiangsu to play in the court of Jiangnan River. After seeing the memorial hall, Gan Long was very angry. He said: "Zhuang Yougong's performance was really shocking. Hasn't he ever heard of entering a death charge? He ordered the company to accept his redemption without authorization, and it was only after he left office that he vaguely hit ""and ordered Yin Jishan and others to investigate according to the facts. "Yin Jishan and the new governor Abida's lawsuit against Zhu Zuo's atonement were not approved by the rules. Specialized crimes are hard to argue; Also, Gong Jian tried Qiu Wei and found out that Zhang Gusun and others were bribing and colluding, and they were good at approving the punishment; He is also very strict with fighting cricket, respectful and redeemed; Jiangning, Wuxian, Taixing, none of them played their fines. " These charges are enough to be beheaded according to law. 1April, 757, Jiuqing, a university student, made a apology. Considering the economic problems involved in these cases, Emperor Qianlong put all the money in the local treasury, which was not put into his pocket by the banker, so he was spared the death penalty again. "In that case," said Zhu Pi, "there is no harm in stealing private property, so I tried to be lenient and avoid death, and I was assigned to work in a military station. The existing mothers in Iraq are mourning, but they are still allowed to go back to their hometown to cook. After that, she will go to the military platform and will not be allowed to donate. " Later, "Fang Yi was appointed Governor of Hubei Province". Zhuang Yougong escaped a major political disaster. ?
During his political career of several decades, Zhuang Yougong was fined, dismissed, served in the army, and even pleaded guilty in the autumn, but was pardoned again and again by Qianlong. The reason why Qianlong went easy on him is that he had to start with Zhuang's achievements in water control. ?
Gan Long attaches great importance to water conservancy construction. He believes: "Since ancient times, the rule of the country has been based on raising the people. The way to raise the people will make it easier to prevent problems, and the floods and droughts will be safe, so that the feet can be covered and the priorities can be funded." Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces are the concentrated places of national wealth, but they often encounter tides. Especially in the area from Hangzhou to Haining, tidal disasters are the most serious. Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces have always attached great importance to water conservancy. During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, Kang Yong carried out large-scale seawall construction. Gan Long also believes that "Zhejiang seawall project is the protection of people in Hangzhou, Jiaxing, Huzhou, Jiangsu, Songsong, Changzhou and Qi Zhen counties". Zhuang Yougong, a former governor of Jiangsu Province, naturally took seawall construction as one of the central contents of his work. As early as 1752, when he temporarily served as governor of the two rivers, he borrowed 16000 from the state treasury to continue the construction of Taicang and Zhenyang seawalls, and was appointed governor of Jiangnan in 1756. Soon, due to Zhu Xu's improper penalty and redemption case, Zhuang Dai represented the Governor of Hubei. However, in the case of "few people familiar with river affairs", Zhuang was transferred from Hubei to Zhejiang soon. ?
/kloc-in the spring of 0/762, the emperor made a southern tour and was very happy to meet Zhuang Yougong. I specially gave him a poem: "I have never been a counselor and won an excellent list." You don't have to sit and talk at the beginning, and the rate is on your own. The old voice of the river city is still as close as possible, and the Longshan New Deal is more of a talk. The seawall is a difficult place to throw, and the rocks are safe and free from hitting. "Zanzhuang. In September, Uncle Zhuang reported the completion of Haining Pool. Gan Long was very happy, thinking that Zhuang was "very dedicated and deeply commendable", and proposed to raise the level, transfer to the governor of Jiangsu, and add the prince to protect him less. However, the seawall project in Zhejiang Province is very urgent, "Zhuang Yougong is very dedicated to preparation". Therefore, Zhejiang Tang workers and relief workers "still listen to Zhuang Yougong's charge" and have great trust in Zhuang. 1 1 month, the government has to impose a fine of more than 62,000 yuan before it can be exempted. At the end of 1764, Zhuang Yougong, who has been promoted to the position of minister of punishments, requested to overhaul Sanjiang Water Conservancy. In the second year, he was ordered to co-sponsor the university students and served as the governor for a period of time. Gan Long made another southern tour and praised and encouraged his poems. ?
Zhuang Yougong is a very rare talent for water control. He spent most of his official time dealing with water, and many seawalls in Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces left his footprints. He attaches great importance to field trips. In the autumn of 1762, Taihu Lake rose and never retreated. He "visited Jia Hu personally" and found that the river was silted up, so he asked to build water conservancy projects and dredge Taihu Lake in Sanjiang (i.e. Wuxiang River, Loujiang River and Dongjiang River, the main drainage channels of Taihu Lake). In the process of water conservancy construction, he tried to avoid adding burden to the people because of water conservancy construction. In his last performance, he repeatedly said: "If we still pay back the money in every state and county, the people's strength will be relieved and the work will be gathered quickly." This is probably the source of his aforementioned economic problems. In the process of water control, he has a clear division of labor. For example, the Qiantang River water conservancy project mentioned earlier, he "set up garrison 1 person, 1000 outsourcing 12 personnel to separate the defense and save the civilian workers." He also stressed that it is necessary to vigorously promote water conservancy construction. "If construction is carried out one after another, the project will be abandoned halfway. In case of the rainy season, it will be irresistible, and the previous achievements will still be wasted." He also carefully studied the achievements and experiences of his predecessors. For example, in the Ming Dynasty, the fish scale stone pond was created and developed by vertical and horizontal stacking method, and he actively applied it. "According to the fish scale method, the whole stone is built layer by layer." His thoughts and methods of water control still have reference significance today. Qian Daxin, a famous scholar in Qing Dynasty, praised his achievements in water control in "Inscription on a Tour of the Cemetery": "The sympathy after the flood and drought disaster is hopeless, and the clear waves can live on the river scale. Build a pond to bask in the sea stone stream, or weave bamboo to wrap it around for reward. " ?
Zhuang Yougong's life was bumpy and tortuous, but his achievements in water control were still praised by people. As the only champion in Guangzhou in the Qing Dynasty, because of his outstanding talent, he caused "a scholar at home knows but doesn't know, and his fame is not envied." He is very concerned about the education in his hometown. On the occasion of the reconstruction of Panyu County School, he happily wrote "Rebuilding Panyu Confucianism" to encourage future generations. After you Gong's death, people buried him, his ancestors and his father in Fei 'eling Mountain in Wenchong Village, Huangpu District, and called Zhuang's graveyard Mountain the Champion Mountain. Champion Tomb is about 1000 mu wide, and there is a "Tomb of the Zhuangfu" monument around it. The words "Huang Qing's example is given to Dr. China, Guanglu Temple and Zhaifu Junzhuang Cemetery" are engraved on the tombstone.
