First, because Zhang clearly saw Harry's position in the Ming court.
My friends have said too much about Harry's personality and way of doing things before, so I won't go into details.
Harry's personality contributed to his success in officialdom: Harry's honesty and frankness were used as weapons against political opponents by people with ulterior motives.
Why do you say that?
The truth of history should be answered by history itself. Let me tell you some stories.
In Harry's life, two people once valued him very much.
The first man was Xu Jie released in the first year of Qin Long. In the forty-fourth year of Jiajing, he was imprisoned for the famous "Public Security Memorial".
After Jiajing's death, Harry was released from prison, and the first Xu Jie helped Harry become the right-hand man of Dali Temple.
After being the right teacher of Dali Temple, Harry played a book, the content of which was worth pondering. The content of the paper is probably like this: after Xu Jie became the first assistant, the world was ruled and one school flourished, while the second assistant was cunning and fierce, so mediocre that he could be a cabinet college student. Moreover, Gao Gong instructed to catch gossip, and Harry thought that Gao Gong should be deposed. At that time, the confrontation between Xu Jie and Gao Gong in court has become incompatible. At this critical moment, a memorial letter from the national moral model teacher Harry began to bombard. It's perfect. There is no record in historical materials that Harry's memorial service was instigated or deliberately done. However, the effect of this letter was that a large number of court officials in Jiajing Dynasty, who were deposed by Qin Long, attacked Gao Gong crazily, which eventually led to Gao Gong becoming an official.
The second man is Qin Long, who has been in Qin Long for three years. Harry was promoted to the right suggestion of Douchayuan, the governor of grain depot, the military affairs prefect, and the governor should be in heaven.
In my previous answer, I briefly introduced the local governor system in the Ming Dynasty. What does Harry's official position really care about?
The governor should be in charge of Yingtian, Suzhou, Songjiang, Zhenjiang, Changzhou, Huizhou, Ningguo, Chizhou, Taiping and Anqing. In addition, Harry is also in charge of the grain purchase in Hangjiahu.
The importance of this position can be seen by managing most of Daming's granaries. Why did Harry's promotion come from Qin Long? Because Xu Jie had already become an official at this time, and Gao Gong was at odds with Harry because of the previous dredging incident, Zhang was still in a dormant period. Therefore, I think this personnel transfer is probably inspired by Emperor Qin Long. Some friends may ask why Qin Long promoted Harry to such an important position. Let's see what happened later, and we will probably understand. I won't go into details about the specific administrative measures taken by Harry during his tenure as governor of Yingtian. He carried out all his ruling ideas and made many inhuman provisions, the most important of which was to withdraw from the field and point the finger at Xu Jie, the largest landlord in the south of the Yangtze River in 1920.
There used to be an illusion that Xu Jie defeated Yan Song, so it was natural to set Yan Song and Xu Jie as Liu's role models, thinking that Yan Song was greedy and Xu Jie was incorruptible.
In fact, the property in Yan Song is only one seventeenth of that in Xu Jie. At this time, the gentry headed by Xu Jie dominated in Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces, and the needles could not penetrate and the water could not be splashed. Harry's arrival gave them a heavy blow. Jeff's younger brother was arrested and part of his property was returned. Everyone understands this matter. Three years in Qin Long is the eve of Qin Long's high arch back to North Korea with his teacher. Harry is a sharp weapon for Qin Long to crack down on gentry groups headed by Xu Jie in Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces.
As long as Harry is the same as before, Qin Long will achieve his goal. As can be seen from the above two stories, after Harry became famous in Jiajing for forty-four years, everyone knew what kind of person he was, what kind of ruling philosophy he was, and many people tried to take advantage of him. At this time, he is a time bomb that doesn't know when it will explode. Even if you are the benefactor who promoted him, he may blow you up in the future. Do you think Zhang will use him in the future?
