During Yan Song's 20 years in power, his financial problems were further magnified, but he expanded the outer city of Beijing, rebuilt the three major halls, and built countless Taoist buildings.

Tongzhou is the northern terminus of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, whether it is the transportation of grain, goods, or the local officials who enter Beijing to meet the local officials are gathered here, making it seem very prosperous here.

Yan Song's body is not suitable for rushing, and he is not going to a local office, so naturally he does not need to race against time.

When I arrived in Tongzhou City, I passed through the bustling streets, and chose to stay in Tongzhou Post Station for a while. After arranging the official ship, he will go south along the Grand Canal tomorrow morning and return to the hometown of Fenyi, which once haunted his dreams.

Although Yi Cheng has seen all kinds of court bigwigs over the years, it is the first time to entertain the head of the court. Even though this Shousuke has just retired, he is very respectful and excited to face this legendary big man.

After Yan Song moved into the post station, he immediately withdrew from the post station and others, and at the same time refused the visit of some officials who rushed to hear the news, but stayed alone in the courtyard and did not come out.

Even a six-part attendant who came from Beijing to pay his respects was directly turned away, and the disheartened retired Shoufu seemed to no longer want to see anyone.

At dusk, an ordinary sedan chair came to the front of the post station, and from the sedan chair stepped a young man with red lips and white teeth.

"Who are you? You can't stay here without an official certificate! ”

As Yan Song moved in, the two post guards guarding the door were a little more confident, and first stopped the servant who was heading, and asked the young man with a straight face.

The young man was not annoyed, and smiled at the leading post man and said, "Call your post man out!" ”

The post man originally wanted to bomb people directly, but seeing that the other party seemed to have some origins, he exchanged glances with his companion, and immediately asked his companion to guard the door, while he went in and invited the post man out.

Zhao Yicheng was busy directing his subordinates to feed the horses, and when he heard a scholar outside who wanted to see him by name, he was very upset. If you can usually open some convenient doors, but now that Yan Ge is moving in, it will be the turn of a little scholar to spread the wild.

When he arrived at the door, he was about to bang people, but he heard the young scholar ask with a slight smile: "Zhao Yicheng, do you remember me?" ”

Zhao Yicheng looked fixedly, the anger on his face immediately disappeared without a trace, and his mouth opened slightly in fright.

At the end of last year, I had a relationship with this person at the post station, and then I went to the lobby of Shuntian Mansion to testify because of the death of Chen Yinshan of Huating County, how could I forget this former Shuntian Mansion Cheng, and now the Shuntian Mansion Yin?

Since Tongzhou is under the jurisdiction of Shuntianfu, Tongzhou Post Station is naturally under the jurisdiction of Shuntianfu, and the big man in front of him is already a piece of heaven above his head.

Zhao Yicheng was taken aback, and was about to bow down to this super boss who came rashly, but Lin Haoran took the lead and whispered: "Don't be quiet, I'm here in secret this time!" ”

After hearing this, Zhao Yicheng stopped his knees, which had already bent halfway, suddenly took a step forward, and made a gesture of please: "This son, please inside!" ”

"Prepare a room, Ben Gongzi is going to rest here tonight!" Lin Haoran was very satisfied with Yu Yicheng's reaction, and did not reveal his identity, and instructed lightly.

"Yes! Be! Yi Cheng nodded in agreement, leading him directly to the courtyard adjacent to Yan Ge Lao.

This......

The two post guards, who had planned to keep the scholar out of the door, couldn't help but look at each other, as if they couldn't believe their eyes.

You must know that Zhao Yicheng was not so respectful when he faced a six-department waiter just now, and he couldn't understand why he gave the best courtyard of this post station to this kind of young man.

Not to mention that ordinary scholars are not qualified to live in at all, even if this one is the son of a certain scholar, then at most one upper room can be arranged, even if the courtyard that can only be entered by the second-rank master can be given to this young son?

It's just that the world is so magical, but Zhao Yicheng greeted him with the highest enthusiasm in his life, and arranged this young scholar to the courtyard with the highest specifications.

After Lin Haoran arrived at the main room of the courtyard, he bathed and changed his clothes, and then carried a gift to the courtyard next door, and handed over a greeting post in a proper manner.

After learning the news of Yan Song's departure from Beijing, he rushed directly to Tongzhou in the name of inspection. Although Qingliu had already regarded Yan Song as a traitor, and Yan Song had no possibility of recovery, he still decided to send Yan Song on his last journey.

After a while, Yan Nian walked out of it and greeted Lin Haoran respectfully.

When night falls, the lights are hung up throughout the station, making it look very bright.

"I've seen Yan Ge Lao!"

Lin Haoran followed Yan Nian to the room, and saluted respectfully to Yan Song, who was lying on the bamboo chair.

Yan Song's whole person looked a little older, and his voice was even more hoarse, and he raised his thin palm and said, "Ruoyu, why did you come with me?" Have a seat! ”

"The lower official is here to ask the elder for his guilt! If it weren't for the lower officials who instigated Zhang Hongtu to impeach Xiaoge Lao, I'm afraid things wouldn't have gotten to this point! Lin Haoran took the initiative to confess.

"I can't blame you!" Yan Song waved his hand, looked at Lin Haoran with a reasonable look, and said: "If it weren't for Zhang Hongtu's performance first, and Zou Yinglong's performance last, I'm afraid that not only Yan Shifan would suffer, but also the old man would have to bear some infamy!" ”

Zhang Wei's recital is simply to impeach Yan Shifan, but Zou Yinglong's recital is to give Yan Song a hat of "doting on the wicked", if Jiajing adopts Zou Yinglong's recital, Yan Song will indeed be a little stigmatized, and it will not be as clean as it is now.

"Elder Yan Ge, you are highly respected, and you have worked hard for the Ming Dynasty, so that the Ming Dynasty has the appearance of a prosperous world, how can you be infamy!" Lin Haoran immediately complimented him.

Yan Song waved his hand when he heard this, and said with a wry smile on his face: "If you are foolish, I have already gone into the wilderness, and you don't need to compliment the old man anymore!" It is true that the old man is loyal and patriotic, but when it comes to making wealth for the people, it is not true! Not to mention, last year's flood in the seven southeastern provinces was a hidden danger left by the old man! ”

"The matter of the flood is the number of days, and the elder does not need to blame himself!" Lin Haoran hesitated for a moment, but still comforted.

In this matter, the essence cannot be overly blamed on Yan Song. If both of his real money are spent on water conservancy projects, then he will not be the first assistant for twenty years, even two years is a luxury.

Now that the matter has become a foregone conclusion, I only hope that Xu Jie's coming to power will learn a lesson and spend more of the imperial court on water conservancy projects, rather than on the emperor's Taoist construction.
