Chapter 7 Coming and not being rude
"Xiansheng, this county called you here to tell you good news."
Zhao Zhixian stroked his beard and said: "Today, Zi Shengming reinstated the governor of Zhejiang and the governor of Fuxing Quanzhang to supervise military affairs, and the governor of Nangan Ting, the right deputy capital of military affairs, Zhu Kun, was reappointed to this position. Now that Zhu Futai has taken office, guess what was the first thing he did after taking office? He specially praised the county's achievements in preventing and resisting Japanese people, and ordered all provinces, prefectures, and counties along the coast of Fujian and Zhejiang to follow suit. ”
Although Zhao Zhixian had deliberately suppressed it, it was still difficult to hide the joy in his heart.
It is no wonder that the post of governor of Zhejiang has been vacant for many years, and now Emperor Jiajing has reinstated the post of governor, and the new governor has set up Zhao Zhixian as a model as soon as he took office, and Zhao Zhixian can be said to be in the limelight.
If you take a closer look at this official position, you will find that Governor Zhu is not only in charge of Zhejiang, but also in charge of the military affairs of the coastal provinces and counties of Fujian.
One person is in charge of two political departments, although he does not have the name of the governor, but he has the fact of the governor, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is the governor of Fujian and Zhejiang. With the favor of such a feudal official, it seems that Zhao Zhixian is in the right place, and his promotion to the knighthood is just around the corner.
Xu Yan was very cooperative, and said, "Congratulations to the county, congratulations to the county." ”
"Hey, this county can be so praised by Zhu Futai, thanks to Xiansheng."
Zhao Zhixian also knew that he could be praised by Governor Zhu, all thanks to the 3,000 stone rice donated by Xu Yan.
Otherwise, when the Japanese invaders come ashore and wreak havoc, the price of food in the city will soar and people will definitely starve to death.
Even if the big thing is suppressed in the end, Zhao Zhixian will get a mediocre evaluation at most, and he will never be praised by Governor Zhu as a typical example.
Zhao Zhixian paused, saw that Xu Yan was respectfully standing aside, without the slightest intention of being arrogant, and was very satisfied in his heart, and then continued: "This county has just received the news, Governor Zhu will come to Ningbo Mansion to inspect in a few days, and Dinghai County will definitely come." According to the custom, in addition to the local officials who are responsible for greeting them, there are also some local gentry and ordinary people who need to accompany them. The county has decided to include you in it. ”
Although Zhao Zhixian said these words lightly, Xu Yan was ecstatic when he heard it.
Others don't know what kind of character Zhu Kun is, can he still not know? This bigwig single-handedly planned to exterminate the pirate stronghold on Shuangyu Island, and completely drove the Franc machine and the pirates out of this famous smuggling port. Such a person is not only an official, but also has outstanding ability. If he can win his favor, it will be of great help to Xu Yan's future development.
And now Zhao Zhixian put him on the list of local gentry who greeted Zhu Kun, naturally to repay Xu Yan's favor for donating grain. Come and don't be rude, Zhao Zhixian is really interesting. Of course, Zhao Zhixian gave Xu Yan a chance, and it was up to Xu Yan to grasp it.
"Student Xie Xianzun Ende."
Xu Yan bowed respectfully to Zhao Zhixian, and said in a fixed voice: "Rest assured, the students will not let the county down!" ”
"Good, good! The county really didn't missee the wrong person. ”
Zhao Zhixian nodded frequently, patted Xu Yan's shoulder approvingly, and said: "Ambition is not old, although you are still young, but as long as you go to school, this county will definitely support you more." You are also preparing for the next few days, and Governor Zhu must not show timidity in front of him. ”
"Students will live up to the expectations of the county!"
"Well, stand down."
Zhao Zhixian waved his hand, and Xu Yan said goodbye very interestingly.
Leaving the county office, Xu Yan went straight home.
Shuangxi saw that his young master was back, and hurriedly stepped forward eagerly: "Young master, the people of the Yamen didn't treat you well, right?" ”
Xu Yan only felt funny, and opened his arms and turned around: "Look at me, I have a lot of arms and legs." Don't worry, the county called me to tell me a great event. ”
Shuangxi breathed a sigh of relief: "It turned out to be a good thing, it scared me to death." ”
"Okay, go and ask the kitchen to cook me a few dishes, and then a pot of wine, young master, I have a good appetite, I want to celebrate."
"I'll go!"
After taking away the double happiness, Xu Yan returned to the house and sat down in front of the bookcase.
Xu Yan, who specializes in the history of the Jiajing Dynasty, certainly knows that the Ming Dynasty counted the Jiajing Dynasty as the most serious sea disaster. There are not only Japanese robbers in this, but also Franc robots.
Let's just say that the Francophiles entrenched on Shuangyu Island have established ports, warehouses, and military camps on the island, and are almost an independent small kingdom. Of course, this is unbearable for Emperor Jiajing, and of course there is another fuse, that is, Xie Qian's hometown was destroyed.
This incident should have happened not long ago, in order to collect debts, the Francophone people on Shuangyu Island killed Yuyao County, Shaoxing Prefecture, sneaked into Xie's house at night, and killed dozens of Xie family.
Who is Xie Qian? It was a famous cabinet minister of the Hongzhi Dynasty, after the three dynasties of Hongzhi, Zhengde and Jiajing, there were countless students and visitors. Xie Qian died in the tenth year of Jiajing, and Emperor Jiajing also specially gave him the official title of Taifu, nicknamed Wenzheng.
Such a famous minister, after his death, his hometown was destroyed by the Francophiles, how could the news reach the ears of Emperor Jiajing not make him angry?
This is simply a slap in the face of the emperor! And Emperor Jiajing is a person who values his face more than anything else. This is also the reason why the Jiajing Dynasty was rampant in the early stage of the Jiajing Dynasty, but Zhu Houxi did not reinstate the governor of Zhejiang until the 26th year of Jiajing, and was ready to vigorously rectify the coastal defense.
In any case, this is indeed a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and he must take advantage of it.
......
......
On 16 July, the new governor of Zhejiang, Zhu Kun, came to Dinghai County, Ningbo Prefecture for inspection.
Zhao Ruohai, the county magistrate of Dinghai County, took the county's civil and military officials and local gentry out of the city to greet him.
Xu Yan was present as a member of the children of the gentlemen.
In order to show respect, Zhao Zhixian and the others naturally left the city in advance. Xu Yan waited with the group for a full hour before waiting for Governor Zhu's master.
I have to say that the pomp and circumstance of the governor is indeed large, and there are hundreds of honor guards in front and back alone. From a distance, it is really magnificent.
Xu Yan secretly said in his heart, no wonder everyone wants to test their fame and become a big official. Of course, if you are an official, you have to know how to show off, and you don't return to your hometown if you are rich, like a brocade at night.
Such a majestic demeanor in front of people is indeed cool.
The next process was very fixed, and Zhao Zhixian welcomed the governor into the city and let the county government stay for the governor. When Governor Zhu and his entourage settle down, it will be the main event.
Zhao Zhixian had already contracted the most luxurious Lanyue Building in Dinghai County, and asked Governor Zhu to move here.
In addition to Governor Zhu's entourage and the principal officials of Dinghai County, there were also some representatives of the gentry who accompanied the banquet. Of course, the number of people was much smaller than that of the city gate, about a dozen people. And Xu Yan is one of them.
