Chapter 168: The banana lining the rain moves the autumn heart
The full name of the governor of Southern Jiangxi is: Governor of Southern Jiangxi, Tingshao and other places to supervise military affairs. It has jurisdiction over Nan'an and Ganzhou in Jiangxi, Shaozhou and Nanxiong in Guangdong, Chenzhou in Huguang and Tingzhou in Fujian.
Because these places are at the junction of the four provinces, they belong to the three-regardless zone, coupled with the lofty mountains and mountains, the land is vast and sparsely populated, so the folk customs here are extremely strong, do not obey the indoctrination, and the displaced people accumulate in the first occupation of the mountain as the king, rob the house, and even openly erect the flag to rebel, and the public order is extremely chaotic.
Because of this, from the tenth year of Hongzhi, the post of governor of Nangan was set up, which was specially appointed to supervise the military affairs of these places and was responsible for suppressing bandits and rebellions.
So there were two governors in Jiangxi Province, one was called the governor of Jiangxi, stationed in Nanchang, and the other was called the governor of Southern Jiangxi, stationed in Ganzhou, and the two were not subordinate to each other, and each managed its own jurisdiction.
Of course, for the time being, when it comes to the size of the official position and power, the status of Sun Sui, the governor of Jiangxi, is naturally higher than that of Wang Shouren, the governor of Southern Jiangxi.
Sun Sui's official position in Beijing is the deputy capital of the Imperial History of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and Wang Shouren's official position in Beijing is the Imperial History of the Imperial Prefecture of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, which is the relationship between the upper and lower levels, and the governor of Southern Jiangxi is mainly to supervise military affairs, while the governor of Jiangxi is the military, political, and legal powers, and it is clear who has the most power.
Wang Shouren was the 11th year of Zhengde to serve as the governor of Southern Jiangxi, when the thieves in the Southern Jiangxi region rose up, occupied the mountains and claimed the king, and attacked and plundered nearby prefectures and counties, many local officials were killed, the former governor of Southern Jiangxi was helpless, had to pretend to be sick and resigned, and Wang Qiong, the secretary of the military department, recommended Wang Shouren to take over the post of governor of Southern Jiangxi.
It is said that Wang Shouren is really awesome, and immediately mobilized troops and horses after taking office, and it only took more than two years to clean up all the bandits and bandits of all sizes on the border of the four provinces.
You must know that these places are easy to defend and difficult to attack, those thieves defend according to the danger, and if they can't hold it, they retreat into the deep mountains and mountains to play hide and seek, and the officers and soldiers have had little effect for decades, but Wang Shouren has been swept away in less than two years, and everyone at the time exclaimed that Wang Shouren was a god.
It is now September of the thirteenth year of Zhengde, Wang Shouren completely pacified the border area of Southern Jiangxi a few months ago, returned to Beijing to report on his work the month before, and returned the flag used for the transfer of troops to the military department, and then returned to Ganzhou, Jiangxi by boat from Beijing, and specially visited Fei Hong when he passed through Leadshan County.
Because he was a step late, he couldn't meet this legendary god, and Xu Jin also felt sorry.
Everyone chatted in the living room for a while, and Steward Zhou said respectfully to Xu Jin: "The master won't be able to come back for a while, the room is ready, Xu Gongzi and his wife are tired of traveling, why don't you move to the residence with the contemptible people to settle down and freshen up first?" ”
Xu Jin smiled and said, "Then there is a housekeeper of Lao Zhou!" ”
"Xu Gongzi is polite, please come with the contemptible!" Steward Zhou personally led Xu Jin and Xie Xiaowan to their residence to settle down.
The residence arranged by Steward Zhou for Xu Jin is an independent courtyard, which is larger than Xu Jin's house in Shangrao County, and the environment is very elegant, with pavilions and pavilions, rockeries and flowing water, as well as flowers and ponds, showing the family heritage.
Yahuan Yue'er was born in the palace, and she didn't feel anything when she saw such a house, but Xie Xiaowan and Er Niu were dumbfounded, as if Grandma Liu had entered the Grand View Garden.
"Gongzi Xu and Mrs. Xu will stay here for the time being, just tell the people below if there is anything!" Steward Zhou said respectfully.
Xu Jin nodded: "There is a housekeeper of Lao Zhou, you can go by yourself!" ”
"Okay, the contemptible people won't disturb Xu Gongzi and Mrs. to rest!" Steward Zhou glanced at Xu Jin, who had a calm demeanor and remained calm from beginning to end, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, this son is indeed a very person!
When I saw Xu Jin for the first time on the edge of the Xinjiang River, Steward Zhou still disdained Xu Jin's "inadequacy" because of Erniu's sentence "I must be the first assistant of the cabinet", but now Steward Zhou really believes that Xu Jin has the ability to become the first assistant of the cabinet in the future.
Xu Jin went from a small country Confucian boy to only one year to pass the county examination, the government examination, and the hospital examination, and all of them passed in a fierce way to win the head of the case, and successfully won the fame of Xiucai.
It can be said that Steward Zhou has watched Xu Jin grow up rapidly step by step, if Xu Jin can continue to maintain this momentum, it is very likely that he will be named on the gold list before the age of twenty, and he will survive to the first assistant of the cabinet in his lifetime.
Steward Zhou carefully instructed several subordinates to serve Xu Jin and Xie Xiaowan well, and then left the small courtyard.
Xie Xiaowan stuck out her tongue and said in a low voice: "The houses of these big families are really exquisite, digging ponds to build rockeries, and attracting living water. ”
Xu Jin brushed the little girl's nose lightly, and said dotingly: "Is it okay for the prime minister to put a big house like this in the future?" ”
Xie Xiaowanqiao's face was slightly red, and in addition to Yue'er in the house, there were two old mothers and two maids in the house.
Yue'er instructed the two old mothers and Yahuan: "You two go and prepare hot water, and the lord and lady will take a bath later, and you two will help clean up the room!" ”
Yue'er was born in Xingwangfu, so she naturally did not have stage fright at this time, and unceremoniously instructed the two old mothers and Yahuan to work.
……
At dusk, the autumn rain began to fall, and the raindrops hit the banana leaves outside the window, making a soft popping sound.
"Is it raining?" Fei Ruyi put down the book in his hand and asked lightly, but no one answered.
Fei Ruyi shook her head helplessly, and when she entered the painting, she didn't know where she had gone, so she stood up from behind the case and walked in front of the window.
"Oh, it's raining!"
Seeing the bleak scene of autumn rain and dusk outside the window, the sentimental Fei San girl suddenly became a little stupid, standing in front of the window and starting to be stunned, a fair girl, standing upright, graceful and picturesque.
"The banana lining the rain and autumn sounds, and Luo Window is annoyed to break the dream of mandarin ducks. Leaning on the dark curtain, the lights are red. The pillow is surrounded by waves, and no one ...... the night" Fei Ruyi stopped when he chanted here, and two red clouds floated on his broken face, and he secretly took a sip, and he just read this one.
This poem "Bodhisattva Man" was written by the Song people, but it depicts the scene of a young woman in the boudoir thinking of her husband who is far away.
Fei Ru looked at the dusk and autumn rain outside, and subconsciously chanted this poem, and after reading half of it, he felt that he didn't fit his identity, and immediately stopped with a red face, fortunately there was no one in the room at this time, otherwise Fei San girl would be ashamed of herself.
At this moment, the curtain of the door was lifted, and the girl came in with a stream of moisture, and there were traces of water on the soles of her shoes, apparently just returning from outside.
"Well, it's autumn now, it's cold, it's still raining outside, girl, why are you standing in front of the window blowing the wind, and you're cold!" Into the painting, he hurriedly took a thin blanket and put it on Fei Ruyi.
Fei Ruyi said angrily: "Then it's so easy to catch a cold, where did you go to the wilderness this girl?" I didn't see anyone for a long time! ”
Into the painting cutely stuck out his tongue, and said with a smile: "I've gone to the five girls to find a chess game and play five chess pieces, girl, there is good news, do you want to know?" ”
Fei Ruyi looked at the autumn rain outside, and asked excitedly: "What good news?" ”
"Young Master Maoxian has returned home, and Young Master Xu is also here!"
Fei Ruyi's delicate body trembled slightly, turned around suddenly, and said happily: "Really? ”
Fei Ruyi's face couldn't help but blush after speaking, perhaps feeling that he was too excited, and said slowly: "He...... When did they arrive? ”
Into the painting said: "Shen Shichu (three o'clock in the afternoon) arrived, and he has already lived in the second master's house. ”
Fei Ruyi sighed softly, her beautiful eyes became obviously brighter, as clear as autumn water, and then looked at the dusk outside the window, even the autumn rain seemed to be brisk.
Into the painting sensitively noticed the change in his girl's mood, and smiled narrowly: "Do you want the girl to go to the fifth girl to sit?" Maybe you'll meet Xu Gongzi! ”
Fei Ruyi's cheeks flew and glanced at the painting.
At this moment, there was a sound of small footsteps outside, and the voice of stepmother Zhao called in: "Ruyi!" ”
The annoying person came, and his little face suddenly tightened when he entered the painting, and Fei Ruyi couldn't help frowning, but he still agreed.
The stepmother Zhao walked in in response, followed by her personal maid Cuiyun, who was also holding a nanmu box.
Fei Ruyi stepped forward and blessed her, and said softly: "Mother! ”
Zhao motioned to Cuiyun with a spring breeze on his face to put the exquisite Nanmu jewelry box on the table and open it, and inside was a white jade bracelet.
Fei Ruyi glanced at the crystal clear white jade bracelet in the box, and said in amazement: "Mother, this is?" ”
Zhao said with a smile: "This is the jade bracelet given to you by Mrs. Fang, look at this color, authentic mutton fat white jade, it is worth a lot of money, wear it and take a look!" ”
Fei Ruyi's face changed slightly, and she shook her head and said, "Mother, my daughter can't accept such a valuable thing, so let's return it to others quickly." ”
Zhao said disapprerovingly: "Ruyi, you are stupid, the Fang family is rich and has a huge fortune, a small jade bracelet is just a drop in the bucket for their family, if you accept it, why should you pay it back!" ”
Fei Ruyi said: "Mother, if you don't have merit, how can we accept such valuable things from others?" ”
"Cut, people are willing to send it, why can't you accept it, if you don't want it, your mother will want it!" After Zhao finished speaking, he simply put away the Nanmu box and handed it to the maidservant Cuiyun behind him.
It is said that the Zhao family has long coveted this mutton fat white jade bracelet, but Mrs. Fang specified that she would send Fei Ruyi, she was embarrassed to swallow it privately, so as not to embarrass Mrs. Fang in the future, since Fei Ruyi said no, it was exactly what she wanted.
Into the painting looked disdainful and pursed his lips, Fei Ruyi frowned and said nothing.
Zhao smiled again: "Ruyi, Mrs. Fang invites her mother to come to the house tomorrow to play, you prepare, and accompany your mother to Fang's house tomorrow!" ”
Fei Ruyi's face changed, and she shook her head and said, "My daughter doesn't want to go!" ”
Zhao was stunned for a moment, Fei Ruyi has a docile temperament, and has always been deferential to her stepmother, sometimes even if she is not happy, she will express it tactfully, and it is the first time to refuse like this.
"Why not?" Zhao's face sank.
Fei Ruyi slowed down and said, "My daughter is unwell and doesn't want to go out!" ”
