If you don't enter the Ministry of Officials, you don't know how big the Ministry of Officials is, and the Department of Selected Officials and Officials, which is in charge of the examination of civil official grades and the selection and promotion of the Division, has a department of seeking talents, opening a department, a promotion department, a library, a manuscript room, a pen and post department, a lack of a department, a warden department, a department of relying on a department, a book department, and a department of dispatch, offering, donation, single and bimonthly election, gentry, folding, sending and receiving, etc.

Curator Zhang had already helped to do it, so he didn't have to beg people everywhere like a headless fly, found a pen and handed over the seal knot that had been done earlier, stuffed a piece of silver, and waited for about two sticks of incense at the door of a public house.

Han Xiufeng was worried that the scribes in it had filled in the wrong form, so he carefully read it and confirmed that it was correct before drying the ink, carefully folding it and stuffing it into the envelope that had been prepared earlier.

Walking out of the ministry, Director Zhang asked with a smile: "Zhixing, you can rest assured now." ”

"Relieved." Han Xiufeng grinned, thought about it and said embarrassedly: "I just didn't expect it to be so smooth, neither need to be led by the Ministry of Officials, nor do you need to go to the Ministry of Rites and Seals Bureau to receive the seal." ”

"The lack of the Haian Inspection Division is not new, and the original seal has not been lost, so naturally there is no need for a new cast, let alone a recast, since you don't need to cast a seal, what seal do you go to the Ministry of Officials?" Director Zhang glanced back at him, and said with a smile as he walked: "If you are distributed to other provinces, can you be the real two people who are in office, fortunately, you are going to Jiangsu, the governor of Liangjiang has every opportunity, and if you don't care about the lack of nine-grade sesame seeds of the Shanghai Security Inspection Division, the political envoy of Jiangning will be able to call the shots, and the political envoy of Jiangningbu Lord Qi happens to be the same year as Lord Duan, if you don't look at the face of the monk and see the face of the Buddha, he will definitely not embarrass you." ”

Without waiting for Han Xiufeng to speak, Pan Er burst out coldly: "Director Zhang, even if Master Qi can't be the master, the young master of my family is not afraid!" ”

"Why aren't you afraid?" Curator Zhang asked curiously.

"We have someone in the Yamen of the Governor of Liangjiang!"

"Anyone?"

"Well, there are real people." Pan Er looked back at Yu Youfu and said with a smug smile: "My young master has a friend who doesn't know each other, who happens to be in Jiangning, and he is a master for the governor." ”

"Zhixing, is it really fake?" Director Zhang will be skeptical.

"I do have a friend in Jiangning, and that friend is indeed a friend of Lord Lu, the governor of Liangjiang, but he hasn't been in Jiangning for a long time, so I don't know if I can talk to Lord Lu." Thinking of Zhou Xingyuan, who was dismissed and never used, Han Xiufeng secretly sighed that he really met everywhere in his life.

"As the saying goes, at home, you rely on your brothers to go out and rely on your friends, since you also have friends in the Liangjiang Governor's Mansion, then I don't have to worry about you." Curator Zhang smiled slightly, thought about it and asked, "By the way, are you planning to go to Jiangning with Master Guo?" ”

"Mr. Guo mentioned it, and I think so too. Director Zhang, why are you asking this, is it inappropriate to go to Jiangning with Master Guo? ”

"It's a good thing that Lord Guo is willing to take you, there's nothing wrong with it. It's just that Lord Guo can't move for a while, and if you plan to go to Jiangning with Lord Guo, you have to wait in the capital for a few more days. ”

"Why can't you move, Master Guo told me that he plans to leave the day after tomorrow."

"When Lord Guo told you this, I didn't know that there was a great joy in the palace."

"What's the happy thing?" Han Xiufeng asked puzzled.

Director Zhang smiled and explained: "Yesterday, I just heard that the emperor is going to canonize the noble concubine Niu Hulu as the queen, and even the envoy and deputy envoy who hold the treasure of the festival have been hand-picked, the envoy is the university scholar Yucheng, and the deputy envoy is the Ministry of Rites Shangshu Yixiang. ”

"So Master Duan won't be able to go to Gansu for a while?"

"It's nature." Director Zhang stopped and sighed: "Niu Hulu is a person with a yellow flag, who was drafted into the palace in February this year, and was named a concubine by the emperor in April and a concubine in May. It's only been a few months, and she is about to be canonized as the queen again, which shows how much the emperor loves her, and who dares not to celebrate the princes and ministers in Beijing. ”

"This promotion speed, think about it is fast enough."

"Yes, as far as I know, there are so many queens from the Shunzhi Dynasty to the Daoguang Dynasty, and none of them are faster than the Niu Hulu clan."

Pan Er couldn't help asking: "Director Zhang, the queen mother of the world, how old is our queen this year?" ”

"I don't know about this, but I was drafted into the palace in February this year, so it shouldn't be that big."

"I guess I'm fifteen or sixteen years old." The matter of the palace was too far away in Han Xiufeng's opinion, and then the conversation changed: "Director Zhang, what you said suddenly I suddenly felt that it didn't seem appropriate to go to Jiangning with Lord Guo, first, I didn't want to wait, and secondly, on the way to Jiangning, the officials and lords along the way were indispensable to welcome the send-off, I am neither Lord Guo's family nor Lord Guo's subordinate officials, what is the avatar behind me?" ”

Director Zhang pondered for a moment, raised his head and said: "Lord Guo's holy family is thick, just like you said, I don't know how many officials want to slap him along the way, even if you don't want to stammer, you have to invite Lord Guo to eat and watch the play, and after the invitation, you have to send a letter to Cheng Yi." Walking all the way to eat all the way, collecting all the way to the silver, it is really not convenient for you to follow behind. ”

"Then I'll go to Lord Guo's house and talk to Lord Guo later."

"Let's go first, when are you going to leave?"

"The day after tomorrow, leave early the day after tomorrow."

"Okay, I'll go to the mansion early the day after tomorrow to see you off."

……

Back at the hall, Duan Dazhang, who was summoned by the emperor again this morning, happened to have just come back, and was sitting in the flower hall drinking tea and reading the newspaper.

Han Xiufeng hurriedly took out the official certificate from his arms and stepped forward to report the election.

Duan Dazhang took the official certificate and looked at it, and said with a smile while beckoning him to sit down: "I was selected to be a court official, before you came to Beijing, you helped the county government, the government and the provincial government for so many years, and after coming to Beijing, you did the first thing in the guild hall for another year, and you should understand the rules of officialdom, so I won't tell you what the way to be an official." ”

"Lord Duan, I ......"

"They are all fellow villagers, not outsiders." Duan Dazhang put down his official credentials, pointed to the Di Bao on the coffee table and sighed: "You have been in the capital for nearly a year, you have not read the Di Bao less, and you know a lot about the big and small things in the world. If you have to ask for any teachings, I only have two sentences, this official can do it, and if you can't do it, you will return to your hometown early. ”

Thinking that there were old people to support at home, and that there were wives and children waiting for him, Han Xiufeng's heart was sour, and he hurriedly got up and made a deep sigh: "Xiufeng respectfully obeys Lord Duan's teachings. ”

Duan Dazhang nodded slightly, thought about it and asked, "When do you plan to leave?" ”

"Lord Duan, I'm not going to wait for Lord Guo......"

Han Xiufeng hurriedly told the truth about his previous concerns, and Duan Dazhang couldn't help but smile and said, "Your concerns are not unreasonable, since you have decided to leave early the day after tomorrow, let's hurry up and prepare." ”

PS: Today is much better than yesterday, and Zhengqi will resume normal updates from tomorrow.
