Chapter 1542 - For the Benefit of the People
Lin Haoran asked his protΓ©gΓ© to entertain Gonggong Li, and then turned to look at the officials in the courtyard.
The officials stood up from the ground, and at this time they found that Lin Haoran's gaze came, but they didn't dare to make contact with Lin Haoran's gaze. They maintained a bowed posture, lowered their heads slightly, and their eyes only dared to fall on Lin Haoran's lower body.
The deputy envoy of the Imperial Court and the left waiter of the Ministry of Rites are both positive and third-grade, but their status is completely different. The person standing in front of them now is not only a bigwig of the court, but also a minister who has touched the threshold of the cabinet.
Although they all knew that Lin Haoran would take a step forward with these exploits, no one thought that he would directly step into the young uncle and become the best among the ministers of this dynasty.
At this time, in the face of the majesty of this left attendant of the Ministry of Rites, they silently chose to give in, but they did not dare to say anything, but used their actions to express their high respect for this big man.
Even if it was Xu Yi, the two Huai Patrol Salt Imperial History, facing the gaze of Lin Haoran, who had been promoted to the left attendant of the Ministry of Rites, he did not dare to make contact with Lin Haoran's gaze, and stood respectfully.
Lin Haoran secretly exhaled a breath of turbidity, his heart gradually calmed down from the turbulence just now, and looked at the officials and said sincerely: "You have also heard it, the rectification of the salt matter has been completed, the emperor asked the official to return to Beijing immediately, and arranged a new position for the official Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of Rites!" Seeing that this official is about to return to Beijing, I hereby bid farewell to you! β
After a pause, he stood still and arched his hand towards the officials present.
"I wish Uncle Shaozong a great return to Beijing this time!"
"Uncle Shaozong, take care of yourself when you return to Beijing this time!"
"The lower officials can't accompany Uncle Shaozong, please take care!"
β¦β¦
Yin Shang, the transfer envoy of the two Huaidu, happened to come to report on the work, and it happened to welcome Gonggong Li's decree, and at this time, he took all the officials to Lin Haoran to salute one after another.
These are some explicit expressions of loyalty, but they are not all polite words, many of them are heartfelt wishes. Many of them have been branded with Lin Haoran, and their future is all tied to Lin Haoran.
Now that Lin Haoran has returned to Beijing to serve as the left attendant of the Ministry of Rites, he may be transferred to the left attendant of the Ministry of Rites or other high positions one day, and all the officials hope that Lin Haoran will be safe and sound and can be promoted to them in the future.
Especially with Jingcha, the external inspection is once every three years, and they will soon encounter the external inspection again. Even if he didn't want to be promoted, he wanted to get Lin Haoran's protection, so as to avoid the fate of being dismissed and going home to farm.
Lin Haoran looked at the officials who excitedly congratulated and expressed their loyalty, and the officials of the two levels of yamen who heard the news also joined in, so they raised their hands slightly and said, "Everyone, please be quiet for a while!" β
The officials immediately quieted down, and looked at Lin Haoran obediently, looking like they were listening to the teachings.
Lin Haoran understood the excitement of the officials, and his step was really unexpected, so that now some officials have lost their temper and appear to be naked to express their loyalty to him.
Although he also felt that his promotion to the left attendant of the Ministry of Rites was a bit unexpected, he also clearly knew that there were always all kinds of variables in promotion, and luck occupied a very important component.
For example, Ma Sen returned to the capital last year as the right attendant of the criminal department, but he met this year's Jingcha, so he was reappointed as the right attendant of the household department. It was not yet a few months later, and Zhang Sunchen, the left waiter of the household department, was transferred to Nanjing, and now it is very likely to fill the left waiter of the household department.
Now, during the critical period when he is about to be promoted to the six-part squire, it is the time to eyeing the six-part squire.
Chen Ma, the left attendant of the Ministry of Rites, didn't know what was going on, and Qin Minglei, the right attendant of the Ministry of Rites, did not get the emperor's appreciation, but let him pick up this big bargain at the right time.
It's just that his promotion this time is all luck, but it's not quite.
Over the years, his political achievements and contributions, especially in this rectification of the two Huai salt politics, created several times the salt tax for the Ming court, and he is indeed qualified to be directly promoted to the left servant of the Ministry of Rites.
In fact, this promotion has a bad side, if he is promoted to the criminal department or the household department, it will definitely not cause much criticism. It's just that he is so young and qualified to sit in the position of the left attendant of the Ministry of Rites, and he will inevitably be accused by many officials, at least Qin Minglei, the right attendant of the Ministry of Rites, is afraid that he hates him so much that he grits his teeth.
It is completely conceivable that when he returns to the capital this time to serve as the left attendant of the Ministry of Rites, he will inevitably suffer a certain amount of pressure from speech, and there will even be forces from all sides who will shoot and assassinate him.
Lin Haoran has regained his former calm and shrewdness, and he has seen the gains and losses of this promotion very thoroughly.
He would not make these bad things public, and he had already understood that if he wanted to get a high position, he would be hated. Even Xu Jie, who is known for being a good man, finally stabbed his old in-law Yan Song in the back and became the target of Yan Shifan's threat of revenge.
However, after so many years of officialdom, Lin Haoran is also ready. Even though he knew that he would inevitably be under a lot of pressure when he returned to Beijing, he had no intention of retreating, and even had to face the difficulties.
Lin Haoran's gaze swept over the officials, and he knew what they wanted in his heart, so he said directly: "This official is like you, and he has been in the cold for ten years before he can enter the government to serve the country." When he entered the office, his teacher taught: As an official, he should benefit the people. Lin was young at the time, but he also had the ambition to serve the country and suggested that the sea should be banned. Fortunately, the emperor appreciated that Lin left the Hanlin Academy, and was promoted by the prefect of Leizhou and the secretary of Guangdong City, and opened maritime affairs in Leizhou. β
"When he arrived, the government had insufficient silver, and there were bullies in the place, and there were pirates in the villages, and it was the responsibility of opening the sea in the Ming Dynasty. Lin someone at that time read the teachings of the teacher, but did not dare to have half a point of slackness, there is evil to get rid of, there are thieves to suppress it, after the clearance of Leizhou Bay, the final construction of Leizhou wharf in Nanyang and Franco. β
With the idea of benefiting the people and repaying the court, Lin not only won the love of the people, but also won the emperor's repeated support. From the prefect of Guangzhou to the Yin of Shuntian Mansion, Lin Haoran was diligent in his official duties, and the imperial court was constantly supporting. β
"Lin went to Yangzhou to rectify political affairs, and it has been half a year since he left Beijing, but fortunately with the help of the princes, he finally made the two Huai salt affairs accessible, and it was also in exchange for the support of the imperial court, and now he has been promoted to the left waiter of the Ministry of Rites."
Speaking of this, Yin Shang and other officials were arrested one after another, and their eyes looked at Lin Haoran with a slight light.
Da Ming is heavy on articles and light on speeches, but Lin Haoran has not lost the sharp tongue in his previous life, but he is fooling all the officials who live there, and is instilling a kind of thought in them.
Lin Haoran's eyes were frank, and he finally said what he wanted to inculcate: "The imperial court appoints virtue and uses virtue, and it also acts meritocracy." If you have made great achievements, the court will be rewarded, and if you are diligent in government, the court will also be favored. At the end of the day, this official and all the public encourage them to focus on practice, seek benefits for the country, create wealth for the people, and live up to the grace of God! β
