In addition to Yang Hao, Lin Yanchao also had a Jinshi who returned to Germany in the same year, and this person was named Yang Dongming.

Yang Dongming, a native of Yucheng, Defu, was the 237th of the top three Jinshi in the eighth year of Wanli, and was born as a Jinshi. Yang Dongming's ranking in the imperial examination is lower than that of Yang Hao, but he has a Beijing position, and he is currently a scholar from the Seven Grades.

From this point, it can be seen that Yang Dongming's background is much harder than Yang Manuscript.

Yang Dongming, a scholar in the middle school, is not a two-room scholar in the cabinet, and the counselor can't keep it secret, but he is also a member of the Chinese scholar's house, and he can enter and leave the Forbidden City on weekdays, but he is a beautiful official awarded by Jinshi, and he is not much better than going to the local government to serve as a pro-people official.

Lin Yanchao and Yang Dongming belong to the same year, and it was not without contact between the two, but Yang Dongming's temperament is light, and he and Lin Yanchao can only be regarded as general friends. The personal relationship is far inferior to Gu Xiancheng, Wei Yunzhong, and even Yang Hao.

Lin Yanchao also repaired a letter to him.

Shen Li, Song Kun, Lu Kun, Yang Hao, and Yang Dongming wrote the letter first, and then asked their disciples to run errands to send the letter, and if it was far away, it was sent to the Shanxi Guild Hall, so that some money could be handed over.

After the German scholar finished writing the letter.

Lin Yanchao thought that he couldn't let go of the connections he had made in Beijing in the past three years. It is well known that the relationship circle of a Ming official.

One teacher and student, two in the same year, three fellow villagers, four colleagues, and five protégés.

In the same year, fellow villagers and colleagues can occupy the same, and they are even closer.

Lin Yanchao checked his connections.

Among the eunuchs in the palace.

Zhang Whale and himself are now fighting hotly, and they can be regarded as half backers.

Gao Huai, he is kind to him, and he has great potential in the future.

Then the cabinet university Shi Li Shen Shixing big backer didn't say much, Zhang Siwei took himself as an outcast, so he didn't mention it.

In addition to the cabinet, the second and third rank members of the court talked about Xu Guo, Pan Jitao, and Shen Li. Xu Guo has a better relationship with himself, Shen Li, and Pan Jitao again.

Then down are Wang Jiaping, Zhu Geng, Huang Fengxiang, these are all old friends, and the new lecturer Yu Shenxing, Shen has always helped Lin Yanchao at the beginning.

As for Gu Xiancheng in the same year, Wei Yunzhong had a very good relationship, and Zhao Nanxing, they all took the initiative to stand up and speak for themselves when hundreds of officials knocked on the que, and they are currently considered to be like-minded people.

They and Lin Yanchao are both famous among the officials who hold clean discussions in the court.

Gu Xiancheng and Zhao Nanxing are now both in the Ministry of Officials, and the Ministry of Officials can decide on the promotion of officials below the fourth grade.

There are many others who do not go into detail one by one.

Lin Yanchao stayed in the inn for a day, and soon everyone's reply came.

This time, Lin Yanchao admonished the Son of Heaven, but as a result, he angered the Queen Mother, King Lu, and now he had to be 'demoted' out of Beijing.

Shilin, the people have sympathy for him, and they are unhappy.

The official's reply to Lin Yanchao was also full of regrets, and they asked Lin Yanchao to do things in the place well, and wait for the time when the Sacred Heart was converted, if there was anything to help, just send them a letter.

Wang Jiaping gave Lin Yanchao two sets of eighty percent of the new five-grade official uniforms, one set of official uniforms and one set of regular uniforms, the regular uniforms are green robes, with white pheasants and a silver flower, saying that he has not worn them a few times, and he and Lin Yanchao are about the same size as they sent him.

Lin Yanchao tried on the official robe, and saw that it was indeed suitable, so he was spared from hastily customizing the official uniform.

Chen Jichuan saw Lin Yanchao's new official robe and said with a smile: "Before the admonition, the old man said that he could no longer wear the six-grade official robe, but now he really doesn't need to wear the six-grade official robe, and he has changed to the fifth-grade official robe, which is really prescient." ”

Lin Yanchao smiled when he heard this.

While they were talking, two people came to the door and said that Zhang Whale had sent them to Lin Yanchao as his entourage.

Lin Yanchao was strange and met them, one was called Zhang Wu and the other was Zhao Da.

As soon as they saw Lin Yanchao, they knelt down and kowtowed, Lord Qincha, and then presented Zhang Whale's letter.

It turned out that although the two of them were dressed as martial artists on their faces, their private identities were all Beizhen Fusi Baihu, and under the inconspicuous coat was a flying fish suit representing Jinyiwei, and the waist was hung with the waist card of the Beizhen Patrol Division.

It turned out that this time to investigate the suicide case of Yushi, the Son of Heaven planned to order Jinyiwei and Yushitai to jointly investigate the case, Lin Yanchao said that it was an internal response, but in fact, it was not the main force.

Zhang Whale's intention was to send these two Jinyi guards to secretly go to Guide Mansion to investigate the case under the cover of Lin Yanchao's entourage.

In addition to Zhang Wu and Zhao Da, I don't know how many Jinyiwei and Dongchang Fanzi are now rushing to Henan.

There are also a few officials who recommend a few servants, who are either good at taking care of daily life, or are familiar with officialdom and are good at officialdom, or they are people who have a skill in Qiangu's famous grain field urging department, and finally a few practitioners.

Lin Yanchao selected eight more capable people, and those who have a skill are under Sun Chengzong, as for entertainment, those who are familiar with officialdom will be handed over to Chen Jichuan, and Lian Jiazi will be deployed by Zhanming.

In addition, it was the delivery instrument, and Zhu Geng sent fifty taels.

Xu Guo sent thirty taels.

Pan Jitao didn't send anything special, but asked someone to bring a few books to Lin Yanchao, which recorded that Pan Jitao had ruled the river for many years.

Pan Jitao told Lin Yanchao in a very loud tone in the letter, this book is the result of Yu Yan's exhaustion, and if you learn one percent, you can be a good official for river governance, and if you learn three percent, that is, you can be a famous minister for water control who is comparable to a single one, and you need to take it home and think carefully like four books.

Who is Shan Gong, a famous minister in the Northern Song Dynasty, he is very famous, and he can compare with Shan Gong after learning the three or four achievements in Pan Ji's book, so isn't he several times more powerful than Shan Gong, I will give you full marks for this forced pretense.

Even Zhang Siwei also wrote a letter, to the effect, at the beginning, you Lin Yanchao was loyal and suspicious, and the old man knew the truth of this, but when he saw that the holy will had been decided, it was not good to come forward to help you persuade you, but it was really painful in my heart. So the old man made up his mind to wait for the Sacred Heart to turn around, and then speak for you.

Now that you are released, it is sad that Zonghai cannot be in the center and work for the imperial court, and it is happy that the Son of Heaven remembers the old grace, and you still have the time to transfer back to Hanyuan.

Henan Governor Yang Yikui, the old man and him are good friends, if you have anything difficult in Zhongzhou, you can take this letter to find him, he will sell the old man's face. After reading the letter, Lin Yanchao sneered, threw Zhang Siwei's letter aside, and then thought about it and picked it up, this is the favor of the governor of a province, don't do it in vain.

Shen Shixing also wrote a letter, pointing out the people he had contacts with in Henan officialdom to Lin Yanchao one by one. If there is something, Lin Yanchao can take Shen Shixing's protégé post and ask these people for help.

Lin Yanchao knew that on the surface, Shen Shixing was taking care of himself. But the two have been teachers and students for so long, and Lin Yanchao still can't figure out the true meaning of Shen Shixing's letter.

Knowing that Lin Yanchao was going to Guide Mansion to investigate the case as a minister, there were only three people: the emperor, Zhang Jing, and Shen Shixing. The real meaning of Shen Shixing's letter is that if these people commit a crime, you can open the net on one side, if you really can't do it, you can't Meng Lang, and ask the old man for instructions first.

Before the old man has given any instructions, you must not act rashly.

Lin Yanchao has not left the capital yet, but he encountered resistance to handling the case, he couldn't help but sigh, officialdom is full of favors, how difficult it must be to be a 'selfless' blue sky in these years.

The rest of the officials also have their own gifts, so I will not go into them one by one.

In the end, Yang Hao wrote a letter, saying that there is a famine in Hebei and Henan, and the road is not very peaceful. Therefore, Yang Hao asked Lin Yanchao to go to Lixian County, Baoding first, and then he made arrangements.

In this way, Lin Yanchao and his family finally embarked on the journey south to Guide Mansion.

One day after departure, Lin Yanchao learned that Song Qi, the governor of Baoding, had just arrived at the post station, and after hearing about the great hunger in Hebei, he did not ask for the holy order, that is, he opened a warehouse to release grain relief.

At that time, everyone advised Song Qi to report to the Son of Heaven first, and then give relief.

But Song Qi said, waiting for the report, the people are starving to death, what is the use of opening a warehouse to relieve hunger at that time? If the emperor is to blame, I will bear it alone.

Therefore, under the initiative of Song Qi, all the prefectures and counties under his rule opened warehouses to relieve the hunger, and countless people lived.

The people of Hebei were all grateful for Song Qi's kindness, so there were many fewer homeless and hungry people on the official road.

Because of Song Qi's move, he also helped Lin Yanchao, and his journey to Baoding was much safer.

When I arrived in Lixian, there was no business trip pool on the way.

Lin Yanchao came to Lixian County, and Yang Hao learned about Lin Yanchao's itinerary at the post station first, so he greeted Lin Yanchao on the county border in advance.

Yang Hao is the respect of a county, and he and Lin Yanchao are friends in the same year.

Therefore, on the county border, the archers cleared the way, the officials lined up, and a group of people came to greet them.

Lin Yanchao got out of the carriage, saw Yang Hao and said with a smile: "Brother Jingfu, I haven't seen you for a long time, why do you work so hard." ”

Yang Hao and Lin Yanchao were born in the same department, but he is still a county magistrate, if Lin Yanchao was still in the Hanlin Academy in the past, the two official positions were only separated by one grade, but now they are separated by two grades.

At that moment, Yang Hao stepped forward and said with a smile: "It's the parents of the hometown who are passing by, why don't the herdsmen come forward to pay a visit." ”

After saying that, both of them laughed.

Yang Hao is now in love with Lin Yanchao in the same year, and he is suspected of Gao Pan, but in terms of rank, there are some official affairs, and it is best to use the name of the parent official to make friends.

Then he went to the post station where Lin Yanchao stayed and picked him up.

Yang Hao and Lin Yanchao complained that Baoding was the main road for the capital to go south, and officials had to pass through this town when they left Beijing, and there were many important people coming and going. Therefore, local officials are not diligent in government affairs, and they are busy welcoming and sending them every day.

Lin Yanchao smiled and said nothing.

Then Yang Hao asked Lin Yanchao: "Sima is going to return to Germany as an official, do you have a strategy?" ”

Lin Yanchao thought for a while and said: "Since ancient times, the pro-people officials have governed the people more than the management of fields and water, and if they are used at the same time, water politics will be carried out simultaneously. Water governance and field also governance, so I think that after returning to Germany, water conservancy should go first. What does Kyungfu think? ”

Yang Hao said with a smile when he heard this: "This is a great good, there is a tide word in Zonghai's name, and it seems that officials and water are inseparable." ”

Then Yang Hao sighed: "But it is not easy to control the water, Guide is located in a humble place, there are no high mountains and big fu to be solid, and the counties along the river have suffered from the great harm of the Yellow River, which is fine, but the most distressing thing is a man-made disaster." ”

Lin Yanchao asked Yang Hao what kind of disaster he was?
