Xu Ping stood in front of the big mirror, looked left and right, and said to Xiuxiu on the side: "Xiuxiu, see if there is anything wrong with me?" I don't know what's going on today, and I always feel like something is wrong. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo”

Xiuxiu said with a smile: "Officials can't trust themselves, but they have to trust me, I will clean up for you every day, and you won't do anything wrong with your eyes closed." What is the big day today? I used to go to court to see the emperor, and I didn't see you so careful and careful. ”

"Today, it's the day of the meeting with the pacification envoy and the sentencing, and the governors of several nearby big states are also here, and those who have a bit of status along the Jingxi Road are here. Speaking of which, I've seen a lot of big scenes, but I'm still a little nervous today. ”

Xu Ping was indeed a little nervous, not because of the size of the official position of the person he met today, but because this was his first appearance on Jingxi Road. In the next year or two, whether I can do well on Jingxi Road or not, I should have a preliminary impression today.

Jingxi Road is located in the Central Plains, which is not comparable to Guangnan West Road in the past. At that time, the emperor was far away, and the officials he usually came into contact with were also people with unimportant status in the imperial court, so it was completely different here. Many Zhizhou are important ministers of the imperial court, and they are not only authoritative and important in their words in the court for various reasons, but also have weight in their words in the court. If Xu Ping wants to do something in office, it is very necessary to try to win the support of these important ministers, and their words can often change the course of events.

Xiuxiu stepped forward to sort it out for Xu Ping again, and then said, "Rest assured, the officials have everything cleaned up properly." ”

Xu Ping then left his residence and went around to the official hall in front.

Yang Xuan was directing the officials to be busy in the hall, and when he saw Xu Ping coming, they saluted one after another.

Xu Ping sat down behind his case, called Yang Xuan over, and asked, "How are you preparing?" There are a lot of people here today, so we can't go wrong. By the way, how many people have already arrived in Xijing? ”

"Everything is ready, and I can rest assured. In addition to the pacification envoys and punishments, as well as the governors of Zhengzhou and Mengzhou, the others had already arrived outside Luoyang City, lived in post houses, and only waited for the sun to rise before entering the city. After a while, I took someone out to greet me. ”

Xu Ping nodded: "Okay, bring more people with you when you go, and the etiquette should be thorough, don't let people think that we are arrogant." ”

Yang sued his hand: "The lower officials will take care of it, and they will not miss Du Cao's affairs." ”

The four who didn't arrive were because of their important status and wouldn't have waited in advance. They are all counting the days on the road, just stuck in time to get outside the city, not only for their own face, but also to reduce unnecessary troubles in the place. In fact, the general judgment of the three states has already arrived in advance, and they all divide the territory in the post house to prepare a place for their governor.

Jingxi Road has a special status only in Henan Prefecture, and even if the governor of other prefectures is the former governor, he is also subject to the supervision of the transfer envoy, and the correspondence documents also have a clear relationship between superiors and subordinates, and the governor is also subject to the jurisdiction of the transit envoy. Whether it is Chen Yaozuo from Zhengzhou or Li Di from Mengzhou, at least in business, they have to accept Xu Ping's dispatch and supervision.

In the post house outside the city, Sun Wei handed over his hand to Lu Ge and Wang Zhen, the governor of Tangzhou, to Zhengzhou: "The two of you have worked hard from afar, I have prepared some wine here to catch the wind for the two of you, and come to have a drink." ”

Lu Ge said: "Why is Brother Sun so polite? We're going to be here for a few more days, so we don't have to rush at this time. I think it won't be long before Zhizhou Chen Xianggong arrives, and I can't sit here. ”

Sun Wei grabbed Lu Ge: "Alas, Chen Xianggong is here and let the official come to call you." We are all close friends in the same year, and it is rare to meet here, how can we not catch up together? ”

As he spoke, he pulled Lu Ge into his seat and sat down, and said to Wang Zhen, "Brother Wang also sits." ”

The three of them sat down, Sun Wei filled a glass of wine and raised a glass to the two: "The two of you have worked hard from afar, let's have a drink!" ”

After a few glasses of wine, the three of them sat together and gossiped.

These three people are all in the same year as the Jinshi of Tianxi for three years, and now they have stepped into the official career for fifteen years, and they have slowly risen to the position of middle-level bureaucrats, and they have experienced the warm and cold life in the officialdom.

The third year of Tianxi has reached the late stage of Zhenzong, and the emperor is not in good health, and his power has fallen. This year's Jinshi grandmother is not loved by his uncle and uncle, and the champion king's career is not smooth, and he died young, and the officialdom generally experiences ups and downs, and the promotion is slow.

Wang Zhen was appointed as the governor of Dazhou, and his career was already smooth in the same year, and Sun Wei and Lu Ge were still in front of the general judgment.

As he spoke, he talked about the new transfer envoy Xu Ping.

Sun Wei sighed: "I think that Xu Ping is only in his twenties, and the Jinshi of the fifth year of the Heavenly Sage has already achieved all the transfer envoys, and he has also been the deputy transfer envoy for a year. Look at us again, alas, people are more popular than dead people—"

Wang Zhen said: "Everyone has different circumstances, Xu Ping is friendly with his uncle Li Yonghe's family, and he himself has made immortal achievements in Yongzhou, and the speed of promotion is naturally not comparable to others." ”

Sun Wei shook his head: "I only know one thing but I don't know the other, I heard that the reason why the Holy Lord values Xu Ping is because he appeared in the sky when he was a Jinshi roll call. At that time, Zhang Wenjie was the prime minister, and congratulated the saint on winning people, and since then he has entered the holy eye. Xu Ping made some contributions in Yongzhou, and the combination of these two things gave him his current status. ”

Wang Zhen said with a smile: "Linxuan is a trial scholar, there is a good omen or Xu Ping is not the only one who has good luck or is added by the saint, if there is no credit for his later contributions, I am afraid it will only be a joke." ”

Lu Ge shook his head: "You can't say that, it's one thing to be able to make some contributions, but if you don't have the appreciation from above, it's not in vain?" Just like those of us who are in the same year, there really isn't a person who can be used? Now, who has come out again? If a person is capable of himself, he must be appreciated by someone above. ”

Wang Zhen looked at the two of them, and couldn't help laughing: "Why am I a little unconvinced by the new envoy when I listen to the words of the two of you?" Being an official is originally to see opportunities, and this kind of thing cannot be jealous. ”

Lu Ge sighed: "What if you are not convinced? When we speak to ourselves, we are just trying to speak quickly. ”

Sun Wei took the wine and drank it in one gulp, put the cup heavily on the table, shook his head and said, "How can you be convinced?" If it's just Xu Ping, look at those Jinshi in the fifth year of their Heavenly Sage, how many people are in the pavilion now? Not to mention that there is also Han Yi who has become the official of Kaifeng Mansion, Yue Yu is now in Ren Zhizhou on Jingxi Road, that champion Wang Yaochen, who went home to guard his father's funeral for two years, Xu Ping actually recommended him to be the general judge of Henan Mansion! Look at us again, hey, it's hard to put into words! ”

This is a sad fact, the Jinshi of the fifth year of Tianxi have not yet come out, the second year of Tiansheng has climbed up, and the fifth year of Tiansheng has also begun to emerge. Once the son of heaven and a courtier, the back waves of the Yangtze River pushed the front waves, the new emperor was pro-government, and he was more inclined to the Jinshi he had personally tried.

A particularly top-notch person like Xu Ping would not be jealous, but a group of them all rose up, which made him desperate.

The spirit of the past two days has been poor, and there have been a lot of mistakes, and the readers are sorry to be a little bit of a little patient. (To be continued.) )
