It was noon, and the streets were at their most lively, and the bluestone streets with four horse-drawn carriages running side by side seemed to be full of traffic, and everywhere was filled with the sound of vendors.

"Let's go!"

Wearing brocade clothes, Gonggong Li led several brocade guards into Yangzhou City, facing the most lively South Gate Street, his face showed arrogance, and he immediately scolded the crowded crowd in front of him impatiently.

Hearing this slightly sharp voice, coupled with seeing several wolf-like brocade guards behind Gonggong Li, pedestrians and vehicles immediately chose to avoid.

It's just that many people's eyes are quite sharp, and they have already noticed the abnormality of these people, but they have been staring at the bright yellow holy decree in Gonggong Li's hand.

Although not everyone can put eyeliner in the palace, and even the movements of the capital cannot be known, it is the heart that blocks the gossip of the people and scholars, and many news have already been spread in Yangzhou City, either true or false.

With the imperial court passing the general plan of the Outline Salt Law, everyone knows that Lin Haoran's mission has been successfully completed, and his recall to the capital is a sure thing.

It is precisely because of this that Lin Haoran's whereabouts have long been in the dust, and it has become the hottest topic in Yangzhou City at present.

Now looking at this father-in-law who is not of low rank coming to Yangzhou City with the holy decree in his hand, everyone naturally thinks of the hottest topic in this time, and guesses that Lin Haoran's whereabouts are likely to be officially revealed today.

"Could this be the decree of Lord Chincha?"

"I think this formation must be wrong!"

"Brother, let's go over and have a look, shall we?"

……

The scholars of the surrounding people watched Gonggong Li swagger through the market like this, and faintly smelled the smell of big news, and many people also followed one after another, planning to go to the yamen of the Lianghuai Patrol Salt Inspection Institute to check the situation.

But I don't know if the people and scholars in Yangzhou are too idle, or they have always been so keen on the news, or they just want to know Lin Haoran's whereabouts, there are hundreds of people who choose to follow.

There is so much attention to the whereabouts of an official, although there are reasons for gossip, but I am afraid it also proves that Lin Haoran has a high group base in Yangzhou.

Gonggong Li naturally ignored the movements of the people and scholars behind, and rode the high-headed horse from Nanmen Street to Yuan Street, and then turned left into Fuxi Street.

Fuxi Street is an administrative street, and the two-level yamen of Yangzhou City are located here.

Many people have been staring at Gonggong Li's whereabouts, and they can't help but worry that this is an oolong incident, and this holy decree is not aimed at Lord Qincha. When they saw Gonggong Li passing by the yamen of the Lianghuai Patrol Salt Inspection Academy, their mood immediately fell to the bottom.

But fortunately, Gonggong Li just didn't have time to strangle the stiff rope. He did not step on the Tongsi Bridge, but turned over and dismounted at the yamen of the Lianghuai Patrol Salt Inspection Institute next to the Tongsi Bridge.

Gonggong Li didn't seem to have any hesitation, and walked up the stairs with the bright yellow holy decree in his hand, leading several brocade guards directly into the gate of the Lianghuai Patrol Salt Inspection Academy.

"It should be the holy decree of Lord Chincha, yes!"

When they saw this scene, many people's hearts immediately hung in their voices, and a bright smile bloomed on their faces, and there was already fresh gossip news about to be released.

Things have become more and more clear, this holy decree is aimed at the Lord Qincha Lin Hao, and the imperial court is to recall the Lord Qincha back to the capital and entrust him with a new official position.

"The Divine Decree has arrived!"

Gonggong Li shouted in a unique voice inside while stepping over the threshold with one foot.

Hearing these three deterrent words, it immediately aroused the strong attention of the officials of the Yamen of the two Huai Patrol Salt Imperial History, and many officials ran out of their respective government offices.

However, when they saw Gonggong Li appearing with the holy decree in his hand, they were not sure whether this holy decree was coming at Lin Hao or at the two Huai Patrol Salt Imperial Shi Xu.

When Xu Yi went to Songjiang to impeach Lin Haoran and went to Songjiang to suppress bandits for "coercion for personal gain", news came out from the capital one after another, and Xu Yi, the imperial historian of the two Huai patrols, would serve as the right person in Shaanxi Province to participate in politics.

Although the right participation in politics is an official position from the third grade, for the official of Kedaoyan, it is already a change of promotion and descent from the sky. If the rumors are true, Xu Yi's career is already fixed in the local area, and it will be difficult to return to the capital in the future.

Xu Yi happened to go out to do some things, and just after he came out of the government office, he saw Gonggong Li walking in with the holy decree in his hand, which made his face immediately look like earth.

Time seemed to freeze at this moment, but he soon let out a long sigh. Knowing that this holy decree did not come for him, I am afraid that the next time it will be difficult to escape the catastrophe, and his career has been ruined by that wrong judgment.

Gonggong Li walked on the corridor of the main courtyard with the holy decree of Ming Huang held high, and shouted loudly to the officials from various government offices: "The left deputy capital Yu Shi Lin received the decree!" ”

"Oh my God! What a decree from Chincha-sama! ”

This slightly shrill voice was not loud, but it was penetrating, and immediately the surrounding officials were like hearing the holy voice, and the whereabouts of Lord Qincha were already about to be officially announced.

Some officials quickly came to their senses, but instead of running towards the back house of the yamen, they hurriedly rushed out of the yamen.

Lin Mansion, the most prominent mansion in Yangzhou City.

With the arrival of October, the autumn mood of Yangzhou City is getting stronger, and the courtyard is also more depressed. The flower beds on the east side have lost their color, and many of the flower branches have languished.

Not far from the flower garden, it is the flower hall of this house, but it looks busy, and there are constantly maids and account rooms holding account books, and then they are leaving.

Hua Yingrong has never been a sad woman, she is sitting in the flower hall, elegantly tasting the fragrant tea in her hand, and her beautiful eyes are focused on the account book on the table, like a beautiful landscape.

Many women rely on close-fitting clothing or thinness of clothes to show their charm, but she is wearing very thick clothes today, with a dark blue suit on the outside, although it only outlines a little curve, it is ten million times better than other coquettish women.

Her facial features are unprovokedly delicate, her skin is as fair as cream, there is a faint smile at the corner of her mouth, and her eyes look amorous and full of confidence. Her delicate hands are extremely well maintained, more beautiful than the white porcelain, and complement the delicate teacups.

She wore a woman's headdress today, decorated with a chain of precious stones, and the tip of her hair pointed slightly to the right, and the whole person looked so noble and feminine.

With the launch of the salt quotation promissory note by United Bank, the problem of funds was quickly solved by United Bank, and the pressure of the market to sell the old money was directly resolved.

Although a certain amount of economic interests were sacrificed, the United Bank not only got the funds, but at the same time raised the price of the old one, so that many people chose to "reluctant to sell".

It is precisely in this way that United Money Bank began to get back on track, in addition to building a trading platform for salt promissory notes, it is to lend the funds that have been in place to stove households.

Hua Yingrong is an extremely qualified manager, and it is precisely the accounts of the United Money Bank that are handled in an orderly manner, and the Yahuan she cultivates controls the entire United Money Bank.

Lin Haoran had just met with Cao Meng and the others, and was walking over from the study, when he saw Hua Yingrong, who was concentrating on affairs, a smile appeared on his face.

He liked Hua Yingrong's serious appearance, but he didn't alarm her, and sat down directly next to her. Now, he has begun to grow a beard, and his eyes are getting deeper and deeper, which already gives people the impression of being more mature than his actual age.

Yahuan Lan'er, who was standing next to Hua Yingrong, was no longer the wild girl of the former stove household, and the whole person seemed more and more shrewd, and immediately sent a teacup to Lin Haoran in a proper manner.

Hua Yingrong noticed Lin Haoran's arrival, looked up at Lin Haoran, but asked directly: "United Qianzhuang has now gained a firm foothold in Yangzhou, how should we develop next?" ”

"Don't rush it!" Lin Haoran immediately set the tone when he picked up the teacup, and then explained seriously: "If the credit of United Money Village wants to be built, it is not an overnight thing, but it must pass the test of time to truly win the trust of the people of Yangzhou Mansion!" And now the whereabouts of the husband are still unclear, this time I am afraid that I will fall into a battle when I return to the capital, and the joint money bank should be more low-key, so as not to be excused by others! ”

"What the concubine knows, she will definitely not be indiscriminate, and she will not let the United Money Village drag her husband back!" Hua Yingrong nodded seriously, looking serious and promised.

She has known for a long time that in addition to being proficient in Daming's business, the more important thing is the contest of political strength behind it. Now Lin Haoran's growth is more important than the development of United Money.

If Lin Haoran falls, then the United Money Bank will inevitably be destroyed. Only when Lin Haoran stands on a high place, can United Money Village really stand up and have a chance to become the first money bank in Daming.

It is precisely because of this that she has always known that United Money Bank is to help Lin Haoran, not to drag Lin Haoran down.

Lin Haoran saw that Hua Yingrong really wanted to help him, and his heart was also a lot more comfortable. He took a slow sip of tea, and was about to talk about the next development of the United Money Bank, only to see Lin Fu hurrying over from the corridor.

Hua Yingrong's heart moved slightly, and she also looked up at Lin Fu.

Lin Fu came to the front of the flower hall, and immediately reported with a fluttering eyebrow: "Nineteenth uncle, the holy decree has arrived!" ”

If the outside world speculated that even if Lin Haoran took up a new official position, then Lin Haoran had already known about the movements in the capital, and even knew that he was very likely to serve as the right attendant of the Criminal Department or the right attendant of the Household Department.

It is precisely in this way that these days, he has been making the final arrangements, quietly waiting for this holy decree of the imperial court.

When Hua Yingrong heard the news, she looked at Lin Haoran with mixed feelings.

Lin Haoran put down the teacup, knowing that what should have come was coming after all, and asked lightly, "Where is the holy purpose?" ”

"Gonggong Li is now waiting in the lobby of the Lianghuai Patrol Salt Yamen!" Lin Fu realized that something had been missed, and he hurriedly replied.

"Okay, let's get over!" Lin Haoran [7788] nodded lightly, and even commanded.

It's just that at this moment, he is not sure whether Jiajing will choose to beat him and what kind of official position he will give him. Especially today's saint is a very casual emperor, who can not only call Xia Yan back as the first assistant, but also push Xia Yan out of the guillotine.

The emperor, who has always been moody, is even more casual with rewards and punishments.

However, he knew that this time the rectification of the salt government was meritorious, and it was a charcoal to the Ming Dynasty's finances, even if Jiajing wanted to suppress him, at least he would give him an official position as the right attendant of the Criminal Department.

"Xianggong, this is the official luck charm that the concubine asked Guanyin Niangniang for you, you can bring it!" Hua Yingrong sorted out Lin Haoran's clothes, and at the same time handed over a talisman and said seriously.

Lin Haoran originally didn't believe in these things, but at this moment, he had no bottom in his heart, and when he saw the sincerity in Hua Yingrong's eyes, he reached out and took the talisman and nodded: "Okay, I hope to bring good luck to Xianggong!" ”

The two Huai inspected the yamen of the salt inspection institute, and the incense case in the hall had been prepared, and the officials of the yamen had already stood in the courtyard in an orderly manner.

With Lin Haoran's arrival, the eyes of all the officials were eager, and Gonggong Li even took the initiative to instruct Lin Haoran: "I've seen Lord Lin!" ”

"It turned out that Gonggong Li came, and he was tired this time!" Lin Haoran has also received several holy decrees recently, and he has already had several encounters with this Li Gonggong, and he responded politely at this time.

Gonggong Li was in the capital of Nanjing, and he had no arrogance at all, so he also responded flatteringly: "Don't dare!" Being able to run this errand for Lord Lin is a blessing for our family! ”

Lin Haoran knew that this was the previous silver and saw some effects, and his status was also qualified to take the initiative to stammer, so he smiled and nodded.

Xu Yi, the two Huai Patrol Salt Imperial History, looked at Lin Haoran with complicated eyes, but his heart was mixed, the former Shuntian Mansion Cheng was already going to take another step and become a high-ranking servant of the Sixth Division.

Gonggong Li stood in front of the incense case with the holy decree of Dao Ming Huang in his hand, and reminded gently: "Lord Lin, please accept the decree!" ”

"The left deputy capital of the Imperial Palace, Lin Haoran, received the order, long live my emperor, long live, long live!" Lin Haoran stood in front of the incense burner and bowed to the bright yellow holy decree.

When the officials behind him saw Lin Haoran like this, they also respectfully followed Lin Haoran and knelt down, welcoming this holy decree from the capital together, and at the same time they also wanted to know the specific content of this holy decree, whether Lin Haoran was the right attendant of the criminal department or the right attendant of the household department?

Gonggong Li's face became serious, and he slowly unfolded the bright yellow holy decree, and his eyes fell on the content of the holy decree. He first read it silently, and then he looked up at the group of officials in front of him, and read it in his characteristic voice.
