In the city of Guangzhou, a torrential rain washed the brick streets clean, and the sky showed a rare turquoise blue.

The new governor of Liangguang, Zhang Zhen, arrived in Guangzhou from Nanjing, and this soldier who had retired in Nanjing took over the position left by Wang Fang and became a high-ranking boss in the Liangguang region.

From the Nanjing Military Department to the Beijing Military Department to supervise the military affairs of the two Guangzhou, this span is not small. In particular, this five-year-old Jinshi of Jiajing, who is already an elderly official in his sixties, is even more surprising that he has been reused.

Of course, this is naturally inseparable from Zhang Zhen's identity as a Jiangxi Township Party. If it weren't for the relationship between Yan Song's father and son, I'm afraid no one would believe that Zhang Zhen could still complete such a large span of "flat adjustment".

However, Zhang Zhen, the governor of Liangguang, actually had his authority reduced, and he only supervised the military affairs of Liangguang, but did not take charge of civil affairs, nor did he concurrently manage the monopoly of salt.

It is worth mentioning that the powers and areas of jurisdiction of the Governors of Liangguang and Guangxi are not completely fixed; sometimes they are only in charge of military affairs, sometimes they are in charge of civil affairs, sometimes they are in charge of both military affairs and salt, sometimes they are in charge of military affairs of Liangguang and Guangxi and act as agents for the civil affairs of Guangdong or Guangxi Province, sometimes they are in charge of both military affairs of Guangxi and Fujian, and sometimes they are in charge of military affairs of both Guangxi and Fujian and Zhejiang.

It's just that no matter what, Zhang Zhen has already come from the Nanjing nursing home and has become a high-ranking bigwig in the Liangguang area.

In mid-May, Zhang Zhen moved into the Liangguang Governor's Office, and local officials naturally visited one after another.

Officialdom is always a place where fish and dragons are mixed, and everyone seems to be wearing a mask. In the face of the arrival of this new boss, it is inevitable that someone will take off his face and reveal his truest side.

According to the news, Zhang Zhen suddenly became extremely angry that night, and smashed a fine purple clay pot.

"The matter of silver mines is related to the financial resources of the imperial court, and now Wang Bai, the political envoy of Guangdong, and Lin Haoran, the prefect of Guangzhou, seized the official document of the imperial court's ban, which is a move to protect the mine thieves, causing the official silver mine to lose money day by day, and the two of them are really a great harm to the country!"

Zhang Zhen wrote a notebook overnight and directly impeached the two Guangdong bigwigs.

knew that this bigwig would take office as a new official with three fires, but no one thought that the first fire would burn directly to the political envoy Wang Bai and to Lin Leigong, who was in full swing.

Zhang Zhen did not list too much evidence of the crime, but only accused the two of seizing official documents, which was the umbrella of the Guangdong mine thieves. Naturally, this accusation is not light, and everything that has a bearing on the interests of the imperial court must be dealt with strictly.

As soon as the news of the incident came out, the officialdom in Guangdong immediately became panicked.

No one expected that Zhang Zhen, the newly arrived governor of Liangguang, would directly impeach these two people, as if he had a deep hatred for Wang Bai and Lin Haoran, causing the entire sky over Guangdong to be filled with the smell of gunsmoke.

However, it is not necessarily true to say that Zhang Zhen has an advantage, and there are many performers for a while.

It is true that Zhang Zhen is the governor of Liangguang, but his power is undoubtedly inferior to Wang Fang, and he is already an old man in his sixties, so he has no chance to return to the political stage of the capital, and there is no future at all.

On the other hand, Wang Bai and Lin Haoran, Wang Bai's political career still has room for imagination, and Lin Haoran is the brightest new star of Ming officials, and his future is undoubtedly brighter.

It is precisely because of this that everyone is still more optimistic about the two bigwigs Wang and Lin, rather than this bad old man who started a war as soon as he took office, so there are few performers.

After a heavy rain, the two stone lions in front of the door showed a sense of tranquility.

Lin Haoran walked into this yamen and went straight to Wang Bai's study, but he sighed in his heart.

After all, he was very cooperative and pretended not to know about it from beginning to end, and the Guangzhou government had not received the official document, so naturally there was no matter of seizing the official document and not issuing it.

It's just that this incident shows that Zhang Zhen is an old fox, can he blame Wang Bai for everything? If this is the case, then the alliance between him and Wang Bai will be suspicious, so that he will not be able to cope with Zhang Zhen's attack.

Wang Bai was wearing a pair of reading glasses to read, and watched Lin Haoran being led in by the housekeeper, so he took off his reading glasses and said, "If you are foolish, you are here, what should I do about this?" ”

As he spoke, he put the book back in its place and continued to complain: "Zhang Baichuan's cannon really caught the old man off guard, and he is the first shot in office, and the court will definitely pay more attention to it!" ”

Lin Haoran smiled bitterly, but he noticed a notebook on the table, so he glanced at Wang Bai again.

Originally, he also wanted to establish a good relationship with the new governor of Liangguang and Guangdong, and develop Guangdong together. Unexpectedly, the governor of Liangguang did not snort, and as a result, he gave them a deep-sea bomb.

"If you are foolish, you can say it! What can you do to not be as scared as I am now! Wang Bai noticed that Lin Haoran found that he had already written the script, but he still asked relentlessly.

Lin Haoran spread his hands and said helplessly: "Governor Zhang's impeachment is right, we are indeed holding the official document and not issuing it!" It's just that you have more experience in dealing with this kind of attack than I do, and you really found the wrong person this time! ”

"If we shirk everything, then we are too passive, maybe the court will really blame it!" Wang Bai shook his head in frustration.

Lin Haoran replied unanswered: "Wang Gong, do you think Governor Zhang's impeachment of the two of us this time is out of personal grudges, or is he adhering to a public heart?" ”

"Does it matter?" Wang Bai asked with some confusion.

Lin Haoran met his gaze and nodded seriously: "If it's the former, I'm afraid we will really have to fight with him, but if it's the latter, maybe we can talk to him well, and maybe we can turn the conflict into a jade silk!" ”

The housekeeper happened to bring tea in, but he interjected: "My lord just went to the platform to find Governor Zhang, but he was not allowed to enter the door, how could he sit down and talk?" ”

Lin Haoran touched his smooth chin, thought about it and said, "Since you can't talk about it, and you don't want to sit still, then ...... We're on the defensive! ”

"How to defend by attacking?" Wang Bai's eyes lit up immediately, knowing that Lin Haoran liked to play chess very much, and he could often receive miraculous results.

The butler did not leave, and stood in the doorway to listen, but was doomed to disappointment.

Lin Haoran whispered in Wang Bai's ear, Wang Bai thought for a moment, and then said hatefully: "Since he Zhang Baichuan is the first year of junior high school, then don't blame the old man for being fifteen, just do it!" ”

As he spoke, he tore up the original written notebook, and asked the housekeeper to take another one, and immediately rewrote a new one.

The turmoil in Guangzhou City is not small, but the movement in Nanyang is even greater.

Bang!

Two Caravel galleons suddenly appeared in Manila Bay and, as if they had been waiting here for a long time, launched a shelling attack on the combined fleet that had just sailed in.
