As the year draws to a close, various officials appointed by the court have taken up their new positions.
Firstly, Lu Chongde, the former governor of Chongshan Town, was transferred to become the governor of Liao Yuan Province, which was considered a demotion. Although both the governor of Chongshan Town and the governor of Liao Yuan Province hold the Secondary Second Rank, in terms of authority, the former undoubtedly carries more weight.
Lu Chongde had served as the governor of Chongshan Town for ten years; if not for the Ji Feiyu rebellion, he probably would have soon been promoted to the Capital City to ascend as Chief of Staff among the Six Ministries, and might have even had the opportunity to enter the imperial cabinet.
Unfortunately, the rebellion in Chongshan Town greatly affected him, almost costing him the chance to join the cabinet.
After Lu Chongde went to Liaodong, Pang Tang's position as the governor of Chongshan Town was secured.
