"Weichen Guangzhou Governor Lin Haoran, I wish the emperor long live, long live, long live!"

Although Lin Haoran had a lot of confusion in his heart, in the face of another holy decree, he could only lead the subordinate officials and scribes behind him to pay homage in an orderly manner.

Tongju Murong Lie and the others were naturally very curious, but they could only bury their doubts in their hearts, obediently follow Lin Haoran to pay homage, and at the same time shrugged their ears and listened seriously.

A trace of banter on Gonggong Chen's face had disappeared, and he solemnly unfolded the holy decree and read aloud: "Fengtian carries the emperor, Zhao said: The prefect of Guangzhou and the secretary of Guangdong City promoted Lin Haoran Wen Tao Wuluo, Wen can govern one side, Wu can pacify the four seas, and now he is dismissed from the post of Guangdong City Ship Division, and transferred to the deputy envoy of Guangdong Patrol Channel, specializing in Guangdong coastal defense, and also in charge of major affairs of Guangdong City Ship Division, Qin this!" ”

The answer is officially revealed: Lin Haoran concurrently serves as the deputy envoy of the Guangdong Sea Patrol.

If Yan Rudou was just derelict in his duties, but his son Yan Kuan turned out to be the mastermind of the bloody case, Yan Rudou would undoubtedly have to bear the responsibility of not being strict with his godson, and naturally it would be impossible for him to continue to serve as the deputy envoy of the Guangdong Patrol Road.

It is precisely like this, when Lin Haoran submitted the official document of the Leizhou blood case to the imperial court, no matter how big Yan Rudou has in the imperial court, he must be removed from his official position.

Lin Haoran was right, as the situation in Guangdong became more and more serious, it was the need for an official with military talent to serve as the deputy envoy of the Guangdong Patrol Road.

The imperial court also considered it in the same way, but what the Ming Dynasty lacked most at the moment was officials with military talents, otherwise the troubles of Jiangsu and Zhejiang and Mongolia in the north would not be so serious.

After several weighings, the most suitable candidate was Lin Haoran, the youngest official of the Ming Dynasty who once caused the extinction of pirates in western Guangdong, and now has eliminated more than 3,000 pirates.

"Weichen received the order, long live the emperor, long live, long live!"

Lin Haoran received the order in an orderly manner, and he also felt a big surprise in his heart, a sense of joy that was smashed by a pie falling from the sky.

Although the deputy envoy of the Guangdong Patrol Road is also a fourth-rank official, his rank has not risen, but his authority has undoubtedly increased greatly.

The deputy envoy of the Guangdong Patrol Governor was the highest local governor of coastal defense, and in fact it was not only in the military aspect, but also involved diplomatic relations with the vassal states, as well as commercial dealings.

In particular, it has a great leading power in foreign-related matters. At that time, it was Wang Bai, who was the deputy envoy of the Guangdong Sea Patrol, who acquiesced and connived that allowed the Portuguese to settle in Haojing.

Now that he is holding this position, he has not only greatly improved his real power and status, but also has a very high voice in diplomacy, which is undoubtedly a tiger with wings to his plan to open up the sea.

Of course, while enjoying power, he can also bear the corresponding responsibility, he needs to shoulder the woes of Guangdong, and he needs to protect this ocean line from east to west for the Ming Dynasty.

"Concurrently serve as the deputy envoy of the Guangdong Patrol Channel?"

When they heard about this appointment, Murong Lie and other officials were shocked.

In the midst of this great upheaval, they are all speculating about who will fill these important positions. Among them, the ones that attracted their most attention were: first, the governor of Liangguang and the governor of Guangdong left by Wang Fang; the second is the deputy envoy of the Guangdong Patrol Seaway; The third is Ding Yizhong's vacant envoy who was promoted to the governor of Shandong.

But they never expected that this fat shortage would fall on their lord.

With Lin Haoran's current momentum and status, he is now concurrently holding this important position. Regardless of whether the new governor of Liangguang is powerful or small, Lin Haoran will definitely have a place, even the most powerful tycoon in Guangdong.

As soon as they thought of this, everyone's hearts were ready to move again, knowing that their lord Fuzun was already one of the bigwigs of Guangdong's new pattern.

Gonggong Chen handed over the holy decree to Lin Hao, and then said gently: "Lin Futai, the emperor is very kind to you!" If he has the opportunity in the future, please help the Sprinkle family! ”

"Father-in-law Chen is polite, if there is a chance, this official will definitely do his best to help his father-in-law!" Lin Haoran naturally set a blank check, and invited again: "Grandpa Chen, please go inside for tea!" ”

Jiajing is an emperor with a strong desire for power, but after the "Renyin Palace Change", he lost his trust in the eunuchs.

For example, in Guangdong, there was originally a town guard, and its status was above that of the governor of Liangguang. But in the Jiajing Dynasty, the eunuchs of the general town were eliminated one after another.

It's just that Jiajing can't cultivate the art of longevity after all, but Lin Haoran has to think in the long run, after all, this eunuch is a close minister of the emperor's side. Even if you can't own it, you can't offend it.

Besides, most of these eunuchs were born from poor families, and they cut off their lives just for a way to live. Although there is an insatiable eunuch like Liu Jin, Liu Jin cannot be said to be bad to the root, after all, he once strongly promoted the reorganization of the army.

Lin Haoran drank tea with Gonggong Chen and stuffed silver taels before sending him away.

"Congratulations to Lord Fuzun!"

Murong Lie and other officials stepped forward to congratulate one after another, with flattering smiles on their faces.

Lin Haoran looked at the subordinate officials who came up, and immediately said cheerfully: "Thank you, tonight, this mansion is in the United Restaurant, and this mansion is grateful for everyone's assistance these days!" ”

"Be sure to go to the feast!"

When the officials heard this, Murong Lie and other officials suddenly became even more excited.

Lin Haoran didn't want to be too high-profile, after all, a high-profile profile would not bring any benefits, but would easily arouse the jealousy of some narrow-minded officials, but reality did not allow him to be low-key.

The news quickly spread throughout the city, and many officials flocked to the United Restaurant like sharks smelling blood.

Lin Haoran originally planned to entertain all the subordinate officials of the Guangzhou Mansion, but the political envoy Wang Bai came over with a group of subordinate officials, and then Huang Hui came with a group of generals, and there were many officials who were uninvited, so he couldn't drive people out!

However, with such a development, he does not need to keep a low profile. What's more, in the next power struggle, he not only has to join forces with Wang Bai, but also needs the support of these officials.

Lin Haoran asked Wang Bai to sit on the chief seat, while he himself sat in the second seat without concession, raised his glass and said to the officials: "This government serves as the deputy envoy of the sea patrol, in addition to vigorously clearing out the Japanese pirates, I also want to vigorously develop the Haojing Wharf, increase trade with the Nanyang countries, and let the amount of goods be larger, I hope that your colleagues can fully support me!" ”

Taking this opportunity, he also expressed his policy after taking office and expressed his determination to open up the sea.

"I must support Lord Lin!"

"Lord Lin's move is a blessing for the people of Guangdong!"

"Lord Lin has done the right thing, and he should strengthen contacts with the countries of Nanyang!"

……

Most of the officials present chose to speak out in support of Lin Haoran, although I don't know how many of them were fake, but these words won some support votes for Lin Haoran.

After all, many officials have close contacts with businessmen, and some officials even involve their sons and nephews, and the prosperity of Haojing Wharf is undoubtedly related to their vital interests.

Wang Bai, who was sitting in the first seat, saw all this in his eyes, and secretly felt that Lin Haoran's words were good, but when his eyes fell on Lin Haoran, there was a burst of sighs. In the past, it was just a small prefect located in the lower mansion of western Guangdong, but it seems that in the blink of an eye, it is already a high-ranking Guangdong minister.

But at this moment, the table and chair trembled slightly. Lin Haoran thought it was an illusion, but when he saw the ripples of the wine in the wine bowl, a bad premonition came to his heart.
