Chapter 349: The Eve of Turmoil
The breeze blows in the building. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoThe crowd fell to their knees.
Gao Yushi stood at the top to announce the will transmitted by the imperial court, "Fengtian carriers, the emperor's edict said...", followed by a large paragraph of praise for the meritorious work of Zhen Yingjia, the president of the Tiren Academy. The article from the hand of Hanlin is gorgeous.
Hearing this, the officials, literati, and scholars who knelt on the ground were all confused and confused.
“… Zhen Yingjia, president of the Jinling Provincial Tiren Institute, is the political envoy of the right political secretary of the East Bu Political Division. Chin this. ”
Zhen Yingjia kowtowed and got up to accept the order.
At this time, everyone stood up.
Gao Yushi was in his thirties, dignified, and looked shrewd and capable, and he smiled a little weirdly at this time, and said, "Congratulations to Lord Zhen for his promotion." The official will soon return to the capital. Lord Zhen is a good means. ”
There was a lot of reluctance in his tone. And some schadenfreude. The case he investigated in Jinling for so many days ended with Zhen Yingjia's promotion, which really damaged his prestige and reputation in the officialdom. Yushi eats by fame.
But Zhen Yingjia's official promotion is very problematic. As the old saying goes: take it in advance, and give it first. Today's wisdom and martial arts are not so easy to fool. The original reason for the sudden rumors, Jin Yiwei had already reported it.
Regarding the words "good means", Zhen Yingjia didn't dare to answer, smiled a little bitterly, and said: "It's almost noon, the lower official has prepared a little thin wine, please appreciate your face." "He has been in the sea for many years, and he also understands the doorway. He was transferred out at this time, which was definitely not a signal that the Son of Heaven forgave him for his deficit in Jiangnan weaving.
Gao Yushi sneered, "Then you don't have to. He said a few polite words to Chen Gaolang, Deng Hong and other officials, did his best to the scene, and left with the captain of the brocade guard who escorted him.
After Gao Yushi left, after a short period of silence, the Shengqi Building became lively again. There is so much to talk about this morning. But what is quite strange is that no one stepped forward to congratulate Zhen Yingjia, who was promoted.
From the president of the third rank of the virtual post of the Tiren Yuan to the right political envoy of the second rank, this is a big step up in the officialdom. But even people who are not very familiar with the routines of officialdom can figure out something else because of Gao Yushi's attitude.
And old bureaucrats like Chen Gaolang, Wei Hong, and Jia Yucun immediately judged: The Zhen family is going to be finished!
Gao Yushi came fiercely, and the clouds and wind were light. After announcing the will, he left in a few words. However, the old bureaucrats can understand what this will means for the Zhen family? The true identity of the Zhen family is not a secret in Jiangnan officialdom: a royal agent.
The old Fengjun of the Zhen family is the nurse of the emperor. The eldest daughter of the Zhen family is the crown princess. This is to make the Zhen family sit firmly in the position of the first family in Jiangnan. However, there are only low-key secret agents, and there are no secret agents who serve as high-ranking officials.
Zhen Yingjia's appointment as the local right-hand political envoy means that the Zhen family is further losing the trust of the Son of Heaven. And combined with the recent rumors that Jiangnan Weaving has lost millions of taels of silver, can the Zhen family, who have lost the trust of the Son of Heaven, survive the past?
At present, the investigation of deficits and arrears in various places is a major matter of the imperial court at present. I'm afraid the Zhen family won't have a good time.
The routines in officialdom are not necessarily a good thing. There is a method called "turning the tiger away from the mountain". Southern Xinjiang is far enough from Jinling. After Zhen Yingjia goes to Guangzhou-Zhoucheng to take office, how can Jinling find out if it is not a sentence from his successor?
Of course, no one can say that the Son of Heaven is not. You can't be promoted, but you still have something to say. The next thing, after public opinion calms down, is it not easy to fabricate charges? The Zhen family has such a huge deficit, isn't there any other illegal incident?
At this time, the Oiran Contest had just ended, and a banquet was to be held in the Shengqi Building. Zhen Yingjia said goodbye and left with a heavy heart. There is no spirit to vent his frustration before receiving the holy decree just now. On the other side, Chen Gaolang bowed and left with his entourage and slaves. But the eldest son Chen Zizhen stayed.
"Let's serve."
Mr. Nakasan presided over the Oiran Contest, and had already arranged a celebratory banquet after the game, and asked the butler to order him to go down.
At this time, there was still some chaos in the hall on the first floor of the Shengqi Building. The crowd gathered together in twos and threes to speak. Celebrities, high-ranking officials, magnates, and scholars all gathered together according to their respective circles. For the first time, the Oiran competition appeared tied for first place, and Zhen Yingjia was promoted, and these two things came together to form a great impact.
Many people are still a little confused.
…
After the celebration banquet in the Shengqi Building, the celebrities, high-ranking officials, dignitaries, and scholars who gathered here left one after another. The next three days will be spent between the Oiran and the merchant for the final cashing and exchanging of benefits.
In a quiet room in the Shengqi Building, Mr. Nakasan was tired and chatting with two or three friends about today's events.
"The Chen family seems to be a little dissatisfied and tied for first place. Alas..., I'm afraid that his family won't support it next year. A celebrity said with some concern.
A hardliner said: "Hmph, the names are all given, Zinan can't compete with Su Shishi, so who can blame him?" In the final analysis, it is still the person chosen by his Chen family. If it were Miss Yuan, this would not be the case. ”
"Zinanhong is too fast, and there is no accumulation of hope. Therefore, Jia Ziyu sent out tabloids to instigate, and the rich businessmen outside were afraid that they would believe him. Forcefully lifted Su Shishi up. ”
Mr. Nakasan leaned back in his chair, waved his hand, and said, "Don't worry, as long as the reputation of the Oiran Contest is still there, the Chen family will still participate in this game for the sake of profit." As for today's tabloid matter, Ziyu is not to blame. He smiled again: "Send someone to inform Ziyu, don't be busy socializing with beauties, hurry up and draw out the ten beautiful pictures." ”
There was a burst of light-hearted laughter in the quiet room. Lin Qianwei, a beauty who refers to herself. And the Ten Beauty Pictures can do the best publicity for this Oiran Contest.
Celebrities and celebrities did not pay attention to the role and efficacy of the "tabloid" Jinling briefing. However, in the future, the tabloids are not small!
…
Zheng Guogong Deng Hong admired the two beauty paintings drawn by Jia Huan in the carriage, and shook his head gently with Su Shishi's beautiful face in his mind. The boy was indeed a woman to like. He can write poetry and draw.
Outside the carriage came the shouting of the streets.
The next turmoil in Jinling, he is a nobleman and can stay out of it.
…
In the middle of a light boat, Li Liangji, a genius in the south of the Yangtze River, sighed to his friend Ding Ang: "Since then, Jinling has been troubled!" ”
There is no doubt that the Oiran contest has produced two tied first places, and they are afraid that they will be involved in it and stand up for the famous prostitute.
Ding Ang smiled, "Brother Li, what I am more concerned about is that Jia Ziyu Zhuyu is in front, what face do we have to be called talented in front of beauties?" ”
Li Liangji smiled bitterly.
…
Tobe Shangshu Weihong returned home, returned to the inner courtyard amid the greetings of the subordinates, and sat in the study and pondered for a long time. The wife brought in a bowl of chicken soup.
"Master, drink it while it's hot!"
Wei Hong shook his head, "I'll think about things again." ”
He came to Jinling to serve as the head of the household department, and his original intention was only transitional. He also wanted to go up. And today, he seems to see that possibility. The network in Jinling City, he has been here for so long, and he basically knows it clearly.
The Zhen family and the Chen family may not be implicated!
Wei Hong thought about it, picked up the pen and wrote a letter to Jia Huan, inviting him to come to his house as a guest and talk about the operation mode of this tabloid.
The idea of promotion in Wei Shangshu's heart quietly rose. He was still waiting like a shrewd hunter for his chance. (To be continued.) )
