Chapter 652: Nervous
Anyone can see that Lin Haoran is suppressing his anger at this moment, like a volcano that will erupt at any time.
With the collapse of Han Shisheng, and now there is no one in the entire western Guangdong who can wrestle with Lin Haoran, naturally no one dares to bear the anger of Lin Leigong.
Han Shisheng was in a depressed mood, and now that he was questioned by Lin Haoran, a thick anger immediately surged in his heart. I thought in my heart, even if I have been transferred to Nanjing for retirement, I am still a fourth-grade official of the imperial court, even if it is your turn to be so disrespectful as a rookie in the officialdom.
It's just that his eyes fell on the stone in Lin Haoran's hand, but he chose to suppress the anger in his heart, and asked coldly with a calm face, "What do you mean by this?" ”
"My sister bought this thing from a stall owner, but Luo Gongzi first said that it belonged to him, and then Commander Luo said that it belonged to Lord Han and stolen it, so the government wants to find out if this matter is true?" Lin Haoran glanced at Luo Haojie, and then told the ins and outs of the matter.
Luo Haojie suddenly chuckled in his heart, after knowing that the little girl turned out to be the younger sister of this kid, he knew that things had become a little tricky, but he thought of the agreement with Han Shisheng, and immediately turned his head to look over.
If Han Shisheng insisted that the thing belonged to him, even if the tiger girl was Lin Leigong's sister, he would be helpless. Even if it is 10,000 steps back, this is a mistake at best, and no one has anything to lose.
Han Shisheng didn't care at all, and didn't answer Lin Haoran's question head-on, but turned his head to Luo Haojie and said lightly: "Commander Luo, you are probably mistaken, this black stone is not the official's thing. ”
"It's the last general's clumsy eye, and the misidentification!" Although Luo Haojie was disappointed in his heart, Han Shisheng chose to calm things down, and he was naturally not nonsense. As long as you agree to "cede" this ambergris to Lin Haoran, the matter will be over.
Lin Haoran insisted on Han Shisheng, stared at him with his eyes and asked with a smile: "Lord Han, Commander Luo said that he misidentified it, then you really have this thing in your mansion, right?" ”
"No, you don't want to talk nonsense!" Han Shisheng seemed to have thought of something, like a frightened kitten, his cold hair suddenly exploded, and he looked at Lin Haoran in horror and shook his head in denial.
Lin Haoran continued to stare at him, and said as if he was unrelenting: "Lord Han, it was stolen, or never before!" ”
"Naturally, there has never been!" Han Shisheng glanced at Luo Haojie, and finally chose to protect himself.
In the hall on this floor, there are dozens of official gentry, but at the moment it seems to be in the clouds.
Han Shisheng was completely overwhelmed by Lin Haoran in terms of momentum, although Han Shisheng had been relegated to Nanjing, but it didn't make sense to be so afraid of Lin Haoran. What's even more bizarre is that Han Shisheng actually "betrayed" Luo Haojie and didn't help him play a "cover".
You must know that without Han Shisheng's help to fulfill the lie, Luo Haojie would have grabbed the treasure on the street.
Lin Haoran ignored everyone's doubts, turned the gun to Luo Haojie and asked, "Commander Luo, can you hear clearly?" Since Lord Han has never had ambergris, let alone lost it, how did Commander Luo identify it as something stolen by Lord Han? ”
Luo Haojie listened to Han Shisheng's push completely, and his heart was naturally unhappy. Just faced with Lin Haoran's questioning, he didn't choose to swallow his anger, and immediately contradicted and said: "This commander naturally has my reasons!" However, Lin Futai is quite wide, and you are just a Leizhou prefect to Lianzhou, do you still want to manage the head of this commander? ”
"Hey......"
Everyone sighed lightly, although Luo Haojie's words sounded reasonable, Lin Haoran really had no right to meddle in the affairs of Lianzhou Mansion. But in the officialdom of the Ming Dynasty, the real killer weapon has never been a matter of officials, but an impeachment that affects one's career.
In particular, the Ming Dynasty has always emphasized literature over military force, and the suppression of military generals by civilian officials is top-down, not only firmly grasping the army's handsome seal, but also holding the promotion power of military generals, and always staring at their faults.
No matter what kind of position you hold, as long as you behave a little inappropriately, or if you make a mistake in doing things, you will inevitably be impeached by the civil officials. Some generals with a backstage are better, and those who don't have a backstage will inevitably suffer.
Now, Han Shisheng has fallen, and Luo Haojie dares to openly turn his face with Lin Haoran. Not to mention, this matter has already been caught, Luo Haojie has been greedy for the military expenses of the Mowei Station all these years, which is simply self-defeating.
Lin Haoran was not angry, but looked at him calmly and said coldly: "This mansion is also the secretary of Guangdong City, and I purchase ambergris for the saint!" Now, you dare to compete with the saint for ambergris, you say that this official doesn't care about you? ”
Airplanes!
The entire lobby suddenly seemed to have exploded, and many people's faces showed shock, looking at Luo Haojie in disbelief.
"What? Ambergris! ”
"The black stone turned out to be ...... It's ambergris! ”
"This Commander Luo is too long-term, and he dares to do such a rebellious thing?"
……
Only then did many officials and gentry realize that the black stone was not an ordinary stone, but the ambergris that the saint was tirelessly looking for, which was the guarantee of Wang Bai's power in Guangdong in the past.
Everyone knows that Lin Haoran has replaced Wang Bai and is responsible for purchasing ambergris for the saint.
Follow him to compete for ambergris, that is, to compete for ambergris with the saint. Not to mention Luo Haojie, a small guard commander, even Wang Fang, the governor of Liangguang, didn't have the courage to do such a thing.
Now, Lin Haoran sacrificed this big flag, and it was simply a sudden show of Shang Fang's sword.
Ay......
Han Shisheng sighed lightly and glanced at Luo Haojie with pity. Why didn't he dare to carry it with Lin Haoran, and chose to push it all out, not daring to squeeze out Luo Haojie?
That's because he knows that no one dares to wrestle with Lin Haoran when it comes to ambergris. Just having ambergris and not handing it over can be considered a form of disloyalty.
is also the same, not only can he not wrestle with Lin Haoran to take this ambergris, but he can't even help Luo Haojie cover up and make up that he does have ambergris.
Luo Haojie originally planned to follow Lin Haoran, after all, he had no affiliation with Lin Haoran. But in the face of this sudden attack, his brain suddenly buzzed, and the whole person was completely shocked.
It is true that Lin Haoran is the prefect of Leizhou, but he is responsible for purchasing ambergris. It is a fact that he snatched the ambergris of the tiger girl just now, once it rises to the height of competing with the saint for ambergris, which civil official will dare to come forward to help him?
And when it comes to ambergris, not to mention that he is a small guard commander, even the three directors of Guangdong have to weigh it. For a moment, he felt that Lin Haoran's power was like a huge wave, and he was just a tattered little wooden boat.
Luo Haojie swallowed his spit, holding on to the last glimmer of hope, pointed at the tiger girl and explained: "I don't know...... She's your sister! This is naturally the truth, if he knew that Hu Niu was Lin Haoran's sister, he would indeed not take this risk easily.
"You don't have to quibble! Do you know that this government is purchasing ambergris for the Holy One? Lin Haoran's face was slightly cold, and he immediately asked loudly.
Luo Haojie met Lin Haoran's sharp gaze, and nodded helplessly: "The last general knows!" ”
"Since you know, you should know that this mansion is looking for ambergris for the saint!" Lin Haoran looked at him calmly, and then accused loudly: "Now, you didn't help this mansion to find ambergris, and you also blocked the purchase of ambergris by this mansion, and even thought about swallowing it privately when you learned the whereabouts of ambergris, you don't have a monarch in your heart, and you should be severely punished!" ”
Thump!
Faced with this accusation, Luo Haojie's knees weakened, and the whole person fell to the ground.
He has always known that civil officials have powerful mouths, can say that the dead are alive, and can vividly depict things that are not. And now, facing Lin Leigong, who has power and brains, he finally can't resist.
Not to mention, his mouth is not the opponent of this kid, and he does have the idea of swallowing ambergris privately. Even if he shirks the fact that he doesn't know the tiger girl, he still can't escape the blame.
Lin Haoran looked at Luo Haojie, who was sitting on the ground, and knew that this person was no longer worried. The mere fact that he found ambergris and didn't come to inform him of the procurement messenger was enough for him to drink a pot.
The dozens of officials and gentry present looked at Lin Haoran, who was eloquent and eloquent, and they were really respectful and afraid, respecting Lin Haoran's ability, and fearing Lin Haoran's ability.
At this moment, many people understand why Lin Haoran, a Sven person, has the title of "King of Lin Yan".
Not to mention Wang Bai, the political envoy who was beaten and lost his halo, Diao Nan of the previous sub-patrol road, and Han Shisheng of the current military preparation road, were all defeated in the struggle against him, is this something that ordinary people can do?
As soon as I thought of this, many people understood that the future of this western Guangdong will belong to Lin Haoran.
"Lin Futai, you bought ambergris for the saint again, it's really gratifying!" The Haibei Salt Division Division raised Su Changgui to change his previous attitude, and took the initiative to step forward and congratulate with a smile.
Lin Haoran glanced at the fat man, and said lightly: "Su Tiju, this government has introduced you as a confidant, but you refuse to even appreciate a glass of water and wine, do you think you should be punished?" ”
The Yamen of the Haibei Salt Section is equivalent to the central enterprises of later generations, and does not belong to local control, but is directly subordinate to the household department of the six ministries, and has a transcendent status.
Su Changgui is the promotion of the Haibei Salt Division, and his official title is the fifth grade, and he is a genuine Jinshi. And being able to hold this official position is also supported by a certain amount of connections.
It's not that Lin Haoran really wants to get rid of this person, it's just that he is seeking power and wealth for officials, and he can't get along with the people of the world. It was for this reason that he chose to accept this man's surrender and intended to take him under his command.
"Deserve the punishment! Penalties! Su Changgui's fat face was shiny, and he quickly nodded happily.
Although Lin Haoran openly wanted to punish him, he also extended an olive branch to solicit him, which can be regarded as getting the result he wanted.
And now, he also sees the situation clearly. Although Lin Haoran has many restrictions, especially after entering the officialdom for more than a year, as long as he is responsible for purchasing ambergris, at least no one in the whole of Guangdong dares to touch him.
In particular, this person is a good debater, and he is very suitable for mixing in the Ming officialdom. Coupled with the potential he possesses, he will not be surprised at all that he is going to enter the cabinet one day.
"Lin Futai, the lower officials are also willing to receive punishment!" Huang Hao, the general judge of the Lianzhou Mansion, came over and said with a smile on his face.
Hum!
Lei Changjiang immediately snorted coldly, expressing his displeasure.
Lin Haoran glanced at Lei Changjiang, naturally ignored this self-proclaimed boring person, and said lightly to the people next to him: "Let's go upstairs, the wine and food are going to be cold!" ”
"Good!" A large group of officials and gentry nodded their heads and made a gesture of please.
"Let's go!" Lin Haoran would not forget her wild girl, and said helplessly to her.
Tiger Niu's big bright eyes looked at Lin Haoran, and found that her brother did not blame her for coming to Lianzhou City without permission, and her pink face was immediately filled with a bright smile, and she took his hand and jumped up and down to go upstairs.
A large group of officials and gentry who originally belonged to Han Shisheng's camp also followed behind Lin Haoran's gang, seeing that Han Shisheng had fallen, and Luo Haojie wanted to protect himself, everyone naturally wanted to change the banner, and planned to hug Lin Haoran's thick thigh with a cheeky face.
As for Han Shisheng and Luo Haojie, they stayed where they were and did not plan to return to the third floor. In fact, they knew that even if they returned to the third floor, it would probably be empty.
Hey?
Just as everyone was hugging Lin Haoran and preparing to go upstairs, there was another sound of horses' hooves outside.
"The Divine Decree has arrived!"
When everyone heard that it was another holy decree, they immediately stopped and turned their heads to look.
When Lin Haoran heard the news, he naturally didn't choose to continue going upstairs, but he was calmer than most people. He turned around with Tiger Girl and looked towards the door.
In the blink of an eye, several brocade-clothed guards stopped at the door with a eunuch in their arms, and the eunuch resolutely held a holy decree.
When they saw that holy decree, the eyes of Han Shisheng, Luo Haojie and others suddenly lit up, and they had some expectations for that holy decree. Especially Han Shisheng, after all, he used Jiang Yuanwai to catch up with Xu Jie's relationship, and fantasized that Xu Jie's relationship saved him in the end.
Walking in from outside the door was a middle-aged eunuch with a face in his hand, holding a whisk, and his eyes swept towards everyone in the restaurant.
Han Shisheng suddenly stepped forward, and introduced himself with hope in his eyes: "This official is Han Shisheng, the secretary of the Guangdong Procuratorate and the Haibei Soldier!" ”
The eunuch's gaze stopped at him for two seconds, and then he raised the holy decree and said loudly in his unique voice: "The prefect of Leizhou and the Bo Si of Guangdong City raised Lin Haoran to accept the order!" ”
"Lin Futai, your holy decree!"
Hearing that it was Lin Haoran's holy decree, Lei Changjiang and the others were first overjoyed and reminded one after another.
Syllable!
Han Shisheng felt like he had been slapped in the ear, his face was hot, this holy decree had nothing to do with him, and his last trace of illusion was completely shattered.
However, many people suddenly became worried, after all, Han Shisheng's experience is in front of them. Some people swallowed and foamed, and they were already afraid of the holy decree, afraid that something bad would happen to Lin Haoran, thus making them lose their backers.
Lin Haoran's qigong is very good, he seems to lead everyone very calmly, and stepped forward to salute respectfully: "Weichen Leizhou prefect and Guangdong City Bo Si raised Lin Haoran to receive the order, long live the emperor, long live long live!" ”
Dozens of squires followed Lin Haoran and knelt down to greet him, and the entire hall seemed to be a large black area.
The eunuch slowly unfolded the decree according to the process.
Just listening to that movement, everyone's hearts rose to the top of their voices. Some people expect Lin Haoran to be rewarded, but some people secretly pray that Lin Haoran will be demoted, or even dismissed and investigated, and the atmosphere suddenly becomes extremely tense.
