Volume III: Underworld Shock

Chapter 16 Wu Da Lang Concubines (16) Asking for Votes

"Eh, eh." Menzi saw that not only did the two not leave, but they were getting closer and closer, and he suddenly became angry. "I said you two don't understand human speech, right? If you don't get out of here, I'll put you in jail. Don't look at this place, can pariahs like you come here? ”

Fan Jinyan only came to the Song Dynasty, he was either despised or ridiculed, and in Qinghe County, people were either officials or rich. But since he arrived in Tokyo yesterday, he has not only been despised by Xiao Er, but now he is actually looked down upon by a disciple.

Fan Jin didn't say a word, his face was gloomy, and he continued to approach the Taishi Mansion until he reached the position of the steps.

"Stop, whoever comes." It was a young military attache wearing a Fan Yang hat and wearing a bright light armor that spoke.

"Xiaguan Taiping Prefect, if there is something important to meet the Taishi, I hope the general will pass it on." Fan Jinyan said with a fist at the sergeant.

After speaking, he took the box from the hand of the sixth son and handed it to the sergeant, and said, "Please give this item to the Taishi, I believe that the Taishi will meet the lower officials." ”

The young military attache was called fluttering by Fan Jinyan, a general on the left and a general on the right, and he didn't ask Fan Jinyan for a tooth card, so he raised his legs and ran into the mansion.

And the disciple who scolded Fan Jinyan was sitting on pins and needles at this time, he never thought that this seemingly inconspicuous person was actually an official, and he was also a prefect. Although the prime minister is a seven-grade official, but he dares to scold a dignified five-grade official, if the Taishi knows, it will be light to kill him.

Fan Jinyan is in no mood to care what a subordinate is thinking, he is gambling, if the bet is right, he will be developed, and if he is wrong, he will be blind for ten dollars.

Just when Fan Jinyan was about to get impatient. The military attache finally came out, still smiling, not sneering, laughing happily, maybe the Taishi rewarded him with money!

"My lord, the master is affectionate." The military attache came to Fan Jinyan. Bow down and hug your fists.

After Fan Jinyan returned the salute, he asked the sixth son to wait outside, and then entered the Taishi's mansion alone with the servant who came out to lead the way.

The servant did not take him to the front hall, but took him to an inconspicuous courtyard, and said, "The master is waiting for you inside," and then turned around and left.

Fan Jinyan entered the yard and looked, and sure enough, a figure was sitting by the pond fishing. And next to the back, there is an open box. Fan Jinyan knows. That's what I bought and gave to Cai Jing.

"Don't you dare to deceive the old man with fakes, so you don't dare to enter this courtyard?" Just as Fan Jinyan was looking around to see if the old guy was in ambush, the back suddenly spoke.

Fan Jinyan walked quickly to Cai Jing's side, knelt down and saluted: "The grass people visit the Taishi, and the Taishi is really wise. ”

Cai Jing put down the fishing rod in his hand, stood up with his hands behind his back, and stared at Fan Jinyan. said: "You are so bold, not only do you deceive the old man with fakes. He also pretended to be an official of the imperial court. ”

"Hey, hey." Fan Jinyan was not afraid, "If this is not the case, how can the Taishi meet the grass people." ”

Cai Jing smiled, smiled very happily, and took a long time to hold back his smile and said, "How do you know that the old man will definitely see you?" ”

"The grass people are gambling. In betting, the Taishi is not discerning. Fan Jinyan said.

"Interesting, you tried your best to see the old man, what is the purpose, let's hear it." Cai Jingdao.

Fan Jinyan thumped his legs and said with a wry smile: "Can the Taishi let the grass people get up and speak?" ”

"Nobody wants you to kneel." Cai Jing said with a straight face.

Fan Jinyan doesn't care about that. With a brush, he stood up.

After patting the mud on his knees, he hugged his fists and said: "Actually, the grass people just came, and they bought an official and a half-job from the Taishi." ”

Cai Jing squinted his eyes and stared at Fan Jinyan for a while, "Everyone else is seeking officials, you are a good person, you even bluntly say that you are buying officials, and you are not afraid that the old man will arrest you." ”

Fan Jinyan didn't care, and said with a smile: "Then you have to see what the price is!" ”

"Oh?" Cai Jing became interested, "Tell me, what kind of official do you want to buy!" ”

"The grass people are not very demanding, they can be bigger than the prefect, but it really can't be done, and it can be done at the same level as the prefect." Fan Jinyan said.

Cai Jing glanced at him and said, "Your requirements are not high, do you know what the prefect is?" You can buy it with money. ”

Fan Jinyan said with a smile: "The grass people said, it depends on how many chips there are. ”

After speaking, I saw that Cai Jing was still waiting for his next step. So, he continued: "Taishi has drunk Qingquan wine. ”

Cai Jing snorted and continued to look at him.

"What does the master think of the wine?"

Cai Jing said without thinking, and the aftertaste was endless.

"That's what the grass people brewed." After Fan Jinyan finished speaking, he said silently in his heart, Boss Liu, don't blame my brother, the form is compelling, and my brother can only sell the formula.

Swish......

Cai Jing's eyes suddenly lit up, and he said excitedly: "You said that the wine was made by you?" ”

Fan Jinyan nodded and said, "I don't know if this bargaining chip can be exchanged for an official who is bigger than the prefect." ”

Cai Jing groaned slightly, and said: "The old man has something unknown, you have the best wine in the world, why do you want to use it for an official position." Moreover, it is also named to be greater than the prefect. Is there a secret in this? ”

Fan Jinyan did not hide it, and said the grievances between himself and Ximenqing and the relationship between Ximenqing and the prefect word for word.

This kind of thing, concealment is useless, with Cai Jing's power, as long as someone is sent to investigate, it will be clear.

"I see." Cai Jing groaned: "As long as the old man says hello to the Taiping Mansion, you can sit back and relax, why bother." ”

Fan Jinyan is not stupid, Lao Tzu finally saw you, and gave you all the chips, your old guy actually wanted to have an empty glove white wolf, how can there be such a cheap thing in this world.

So, he said: "Don't bother the Taishi, the grass people can solve this matter by themselves." ”

Cai Jing was a little annoyed when he saw that Fan Jinyan didn't eat that, "Do you have a reputation?" Do you know how to be an official? ”

Wu Song does not have any fame, but Wu Song knows that being an official is to relieve the worries of the saints, to benefit the people, and to settle the grievances of the world. I also hope that the master will be perfected. Fan Jinyan said.

Cai Jing finally smiled and said, "Since that's the case, then the old man will help you." Don't think about it, prefect, that's the local magistrate, and the stakes are very high. However, the old man can give you a patrol envoy is position. ”

"Patrol Envoy?" Fan Jinyan didn't understand the official system of the Song Dynasty at all, "I don't know how many products this is, and I may be in charge of the prefect." ”

"Huh." Cai Jing said with a smile: "The inspection envoy is the seventh grade, which is the same level as the county order, but it has the right to interfere in all local government affairs and reach the heavenly hall, which is the proverbial official level." Although the level is lower than that of the prefect, it can check and balance the prefect, and under normal circumstances, the prefect has to make an inspection. ”

After listening to Cai Jing, Fan Jinyan finally understood what this patrol envoy was. It can be said that it has no rights, or it can be said that it has great rights. In fact, to put it bluntly, it is to supervise local officials on behalf of the emperor, not a permanent position, and there is no need to sit in the court, it belongs to the lord who goes to eat and take.
