Chapter 1383: Vortex
The time to enter the city was quickly finalized, and only two days later, he officially went to Yangzhou City as a messenger.
After learning that Lin Haoran was coming, as long as the officials in Yangzhou were not old and confused, it was impossible for them to run to do other things at this juncture, and they waited at the east gate in a regular manner.
Yangzhou City is divided into a new city and an old city, and the new city is larger than the old city. The east gate of the new city is the banknote gate, which mainly collects ship taxes from incoming ships, while the east gate of Yangzhou City is still the old east gate.
It was in the morning that dozens of officials greeted the officials of the Yamen of the Lianghuai Transit Envoy Division, the officials of the Yamen of Yangzhou Prefecture, the officials of the Yamen of Jiangdu County, and the officials of the banknote customs at the east gate.
In addition to these local officials, there were also a large group of gentry in Yangzhou City, as well as big salt merchants gathered in Yangzhou City, and even some scholars, who gathered here to welcome this new upstart.
No matter what kind of hostility they had towards this Qincha, in the face of Lin Haoran's current identity and status, they had to at least have a respectful attitude on the surface.
Among so many officials in Yangzhou City, it is Chen Xian who is the transfer envoy of the two Huai capitals.
For example, the chiefs of the Salt Section Lifting Division of Guangdong and the Haibei Salt Lifting Division are all positive five products, but they are all transferred to the third grade, which is subordinate to the household department, and the rank is one level higher than that of the Yangzhou prefect.
Chen Xian is a native of Wu County, whose name is Dehui, is in his early fifties, and he can serve as the world's most oily and watery transfer envoy of the two Huaidu, and his ability and background will not be too bad.
At this time, he stood at the front of the crowd, looking at the official road with sharp eyes in the turbidity, knowing that this Qin messenger was coming, and he, the envoy of the two Huaidu, was the first to bear the brunt.
If the theories of the two are consistent, they will naturally be happy, but if the theories of the two contradict each other, there will be a dragon fight.
"It's not good!"
He Dongxu, the prefect of Yangzhou, seemed to see through Chen Xian's thoughts, and looked yin and yang weird.
Chen Xian glanced at He Dongxu lightly, and naturally knew that He Dongxu wanted to find fault with him and Lin Haoran, but if he was able to get mixed up in this place, it was naturally impossible to have no half-city mansion.
"People are worried from afar, but they must have far-sightedness!"
He Dongxu, the prefect of Yangzhou, looked at Chen Xian indifferently, but he did not give up, so he continued to take medicine.
"It's coming!"
It was at this time that there was finally movement on the official road, and everyone's eyes were attracted.
But I saw two brocade guards wearing flying fish suits opening the way, a brown umbrella was raised high, and the eight-carried sedan chair was from far and near, with gongs and drums in front of it and a pair of flags in the back.
The flag is often the face of an official, and Lin Haoran is undoubtedly unmatched at this point, but he saw the flag printed: "Wuwu Branch champion and first!" "Praise the Great Ming Wenkui! "The Imperial History of the Left Deputy of the Imperial Palace! "Ordered to inspect the place! And so on.
"Meet Lord Qingtian!"
There were many officials on both sides of the official road, and they didn't know whose honor guard it was at first, but when they saw those flags, they knelt on the ground to salute the people in the sedan chair.
Chen Xian, the transfer envoy of the two Huaidu, He Dongxu, the prefect of Yangzhou, Xu Yi, the imperial historian of the Lianghuai Patrol, and Li Yu, a member of the household department in Nanjing, and other officials watched the appearance of the team, and their eyes looked at the mighty team with complicated eyes, looking at the people who knelt down one after another.
In today's Ming officials, they can not only hold a high position, but also get the support of many people, I am afraid that only this twenty-two-year-old new left deputy capital Yushi Lin Wenkui.
After a while, the sedan chair stopped in front of the east gate.
Lin Haoran, who was wearing a bullfighting suit, stepped out of the sedan chair, and the big brown umbrella followed him like a shadow, which helped him block the sun on his head, and also showed his extraordinary status.
"He Dongxu, the prefect of Yangzhou, has seen Lord Lin!"
Yangzhou Governor He Dongxu's mouth was slightly upturned, and he stepped forward to arch his hand.
Hey?
Chen Xian was about to salute, but when he heard He Dongxu making such a fuss, he looked at He Dongxu quietly, and at the same time secretly observed Lin Haoran's reaction.
Lin Haoran, who was wearing a bullfighting suit, stood under the brown umbrella, but he looked at Chen Xian, the transfer envoy of the two Huai capitals, and Li Yu, a member of the Nanjing household department.
"Li Yu, a member of the Nanjing Household Department, has seen Lord Lin!"
Li Yu is a middle-aged official with a fat head and big ears, and it can be judged from his official position that he is the person in charge of Yangzhou Banknote Customs.
The officials in the back looked at the two officials who were just giving their hands, but they couldn't help but stare at each other, and everyone chose to wait and see.
It is said that their group of officials should kneel to greet Lin Haoran, but now He Dongxu, the prefect of Yangzhou, and Li Yu, a member of the household department in Nanjing, deliberately downplay Lin Haoran's status as a chaplain, which is undoubtedly to give Lin Haoran a dismount.
The magic of officialdom is like this, in the past, they were afraid of Yan Maoqing like a tiger, but they looked at Dong Wei later, and this new Lin Haoran didn't know if he could bully him when he was young.
Lin Haoran saw all this in his eyes, but he didn't say anything, nor did he go crazy on the spot, and he seemed indifferent to see the reactions of the officials. 、
"Xiaguan Yangzhou General Sentence Chen Fengming greets Lord Qincha!"
"Xiaguan Jiangdu Zhi County Ma Chuyuan greets Lord Qincha!"
……
But at this time, Chen Fengming, the general judge of Yangzhou, and Ma Chuyuan, the magistrate of Jiangdu, suddenly stepped forward and respectfully bowed to Lin Haoran.
This......
Yangzhou Governor He Dongxu looked at these two people like this, and his face immediately sank.
"This official inspected the place on behalf of the Son of Heaven and went to the city of Yangzhou, fortunately there were two adults, Chen Fengming, the general judge of Yangzhou, and Ma Chuyuan, the magistrate of Jiangdu, greeted him, and Ben Qin was almost overjoyed!" Lin Haoran seemed to be ignoring the others, and said with a smile.
Stupidity!
Chen Xian scolded He Dongxu in his heart, this trick was obviously used by the wrong object, that is, he knelt down and said: "Xia Guan and Liang Huai are transferred to Chen Xian, welcome Lord Qincha!" ”
"Xiaguan Lianghuai patrols the salt imperial history Xu Yi to meet Lord Qincha!" Xu Yi knew that Lin Haoran was not a simple character, so he chose to kneel down and greet him.
Seeing that the two officials chose to kneel to greet them, other officials did not dare to follow He Dongxu to "fool around", and some officials also stopped watching and knelt down to greet them.
He Dongxu and Li Yu found out that they had become the "Commander of the Light Pole", although they were very reluctant, they still knelt down and said: "He Dongxu, the prefect of Yangzhou (Li Yu, a member of the household department in Nanjing), respectfully Lord Qincha." ”
Before Lin Haoran entered Yangzhou City, he had already felt an invisible whirlpool, but he did not immediately let them get up from the ground, but said eloquently on the spot: "Daming is now in external and internal difficulties, and the finances are stretched. ”
Scold...... It's another old tune.
He Dongxu, who was kneeling on the ground, pouted his lips with disdain when he listened to Lin Haoran's words.
Lin Haoran didn't pay attention to He Dongxu's thoughts, but looked at the officials and continued: "Ben Qincha is a newcomer to Chadao, and he doesn't know much about the local situation, so he will listen to your opinions first. If any of his colleagues can offer effective strategies for travel, Ben Chin will definitely be on the table at the imperial court, at least to help him be promoted to the next rank. ”
