Chapter 80: The Secret Estrangement

Chapter 80: Secret Estrangement

"Xiaguan Wang Siming, I've seen two adults!" Wang Siming walked in slightly bent down and saluted meticulously.

"Hehe, Brother Siming, what are you polite, let's sit down and talk!" Shi Bingzheng said with a smile, and got up very enthusiastically to fill a cup of tea for Wang Siming with his own hands.

Shen Chongming also nodded with a smile and said, "That's it, there are no outsiders here, so you don't have to stick to those false courtesies!" Saying that, Shen Chongming habitually picked up the teacup and took a sip to moisten his throat, but he would tell Wang Siming a lot of things in one breath later?

Seeing him like this, Wang Siming, who was originally a lot more comfortable because Shi Bingzheng was pouring tea for himself himself, couldn't help but feel embarrassed, and only thought that Shen Chongming blamed himself for not being big or small.

has been up and down in the officialdom for several years, Wang Siming can be regarded as having rich experience, and he knows that he can't show any wrong expression at this time, otherwise he will be noticed by Shen Chongming, but he is afraid that he will not be able to keep this idle now, this kid is a ruthless person, otherwise he can't get mixed up with this now.

"Master Shi is polite, the lower officials can't afford it!" Wang Siming gave in again and again, but was still pressed to the chair by Shi Bingzheng and sat down.

Putting down the teacup, Shen Chongming raised his head and asked with a smile: "Lord Wang, how do you feel in our maritime yamen these days!" ”

"Back to Lord Shen's words, although the Maritime Yamen is a start-up, but your Excellency is knowledgeable, and all your colleagues are also people with extraordinary abilities, but the lower officials are mediocre in learning, and they are always afraid that they will not be able to resist the ...... of the two adults!" Wang Siming was modest.

"Okay, okay, okay, you're the leader of the year, why are you mediocre?" Shi Bingzheng waved his hand to interrupt him, then turned his head to Shen Chongming and smiled: "Brother Shen, look, this kid is more and more able to talk nonsense!" ”

Shen Chongming smiled: "This is also no way!" Officialdom is like this, if you always tell the truth, then what's the matter, Ah Bing, you have to study hard with Siming! ”

Shi Bingzheng laughed: "Certainly, definitely!" ”

It was originally a joke, but these words changed in the ears of Wang Siming, who had a different mind, and this Shen Chongming was clearly satirizing himself! But you can't say anything more? I can only sit there with a smiling face and a restrained body.

After the joke, Shen Chongming went straight to the point: "Lord Wang, I asked you to come over this time, there is something I want to tell you, you ......"

"If you have something to order, the lower officials will do their best to get things done!" Wang Siming immediately stood up from the chair, bowed down and said.

Shen Chongming, who was interrupted, choked up, and then smiled: "Oh, there's no need to do this, let's sit down and talk!" ”

"I came to you this time, because we have been preparing for so long, and we have maritime yamen in various places, and now that the east wind is ready, it is also time for us to show our talents, but you also know that corruption is rampant in the officialdom, and the officials and teachers are really a little relieved in their hearts that we have just established the yamen, and you also know that our maritime yamen is a fat and oily place, once there is a problem, it will definitely not be a small problem, so take precautions, and you will have to work harder, if possible, you go to the various commercial ports to take a look, once you find that someone is rampant, you must severely punish the wealthy contract: the young master can no longer cheat! Shen Chongming looked at Wang Siming and said.

As soon as he heard this, Wang Siming stood up again, clenched his fists and said: "Lord Shen, Master Shi, you can rest assured that this matter will be handled by the lower officials, if something goes wrong, let the two adults deal with it!" ”

Seeing him like this, Shen Chongming laughed: "Lord Wang, you don't have to be like this, you just need to do your best in everything!" ”

Walking out of the main hall, the corners of Wang Siming's mouth showed a smile, everyone has been in the officialdom for so many years, everyone knows that there is no way to eradicate such a thing as corruption, but it is ridiculous that Shen Chongming has to pretend to let himself sleep everywhere for him, hum, he has worked hard, if he really has merit, in the end, the emperor will still be counted on his head, and he has nothing to do with his own money.

Although his heart is not comfortable, Wang Siming also knows that he really has to wander outside for a while this time, but this is fine, how can he say that he is also a Beijing official, how can local officials not be hospitalized, it is much better than staying in this high-ranking officials and nobles everywhere in the capital.

"One million taels, hehe, it seems that this Shen Chongming really has some talent! It's just too easy for him to make money! "Holding the East Factory, Feng Bao's news is definitely one of the most well-informed in the capital.

"Hehe, the maritime yamen has just been established, and the foundation in various places is extremely weak, father-in-law, at this point, you have a lot to do!"

It was none other than Song Qingyang, the current ambassador of the Firewood and Charcoal Department of the Ministry of Industry, since the last time he was killed, this guy is now very low-key, and few people in the officialdom can remember him.

However, this is only a superficial phenomenon, Song Qingyang is not a person who is willing to be ordinary. Although he is no longer the imperial historian of the Metropolitan Procuratorate who holds the power to participate in the performance, Feng Bao still values him.

The reason for this is because for Feng Baolai, Song Qingyang not only has a strategy, but more importantly, he is obedient to his words, such a good dog is rare to see, and it is also a very good choice to keep him by his side as a strategist.

So once there is something, Feng Bao will still send someone to summon Song Qingyang to his side to discuss together, this time it is the same, Feng Bao is thinking about how to get the maritime yamen into his own hands, you must know that such a fat and oily yamen is in the hands of others, it is an unspeakable torture for himself.

As soon as he heard Song Qingyang's simple words, Feng Bao couldn't help but smile proudly: "Hehe, Qingyang!" You can always think of going with our family! ”

"Father-in-law has won the award, the lower official thinks father-in-law, you must have a better way!" Song Qingyang said with a smile, such a simple truth is something that everyone can know, Feng Bao will definitely not be so superficial.

Hearing this, Feng Bao's face was even more proud: "Yes, although your method is feasible, it will take a lot of time to take over the maritime yamen from Shen Chongming's hands, and Shen Chongming's kid is cautious, and it is very likely that he will find out that he is tired after a long time, and then it will be a bamboo basket to draw water, and we will be busy in vain!" ”

Song Qingyang was very eye-catching, and hurriedly made an eager expression and asked, "Please also ask your father-in-law to teach me!" ”

"Hehe, you have been an official for several years, and the ideals of this officialdom must be clear, what kind of people are the easiest people to produce in a fat and oily place like the maritime yamen!" Feng Bao asked with a smile.

"If you go back to your father-in-law, you will naturally be a corrupt official, after all, there are not many rigid people! The silver of the white flowers flows by, and anyone can't help but give birth to a greedy god! Song Qingyang said with a smile.

"Yes, it is a corrupt official, the fatter the oily yamen, the easier it is to be greedy, and the maritime yamen is just such a yamen, you say, once there is a big corrupt official in the maritime yamen that shakes the government and the opposition, what will the emperor react?" The smile on Storm's face grew thicker and wider, and both eyes narrowed into slits.

It was no longer appropriate to continue to pretend to be stupid to satisfy Feng Bao's complacency, Song Qingyang immediately pretended to be suddenly enlightened and said: "Father-in-law, what you said is really right, the emperor will definitely be furious at that time, and it is not impossible to implicate Shen Chongming, even if he will not be dismissed, but the maritime yamen will definitely not be handed over to him to take care of it anymore!" ”

"Yes, so this is our opportunity, our family has already thought about it, the most important thing at the moment is to buy off an official of the maritime yamen to facilitate this matter, and this person's status cannot be too low, otherwise when Shen Chongming is no longer the governor of the maritime yamen, he will not be qualified to succeed, then we will make wedding clothes for others again!" Feng Bao put his plans together.

"Father-in-law, in this way, Shen Chongming will not be able to escape the palm of your father-in-law, this maritime yamen will have to listen to your orders sooner or later!" Song Qingyang patted his ass to his heart's content.

"Hehehe, our family is also for the emperor, after all, such an important yamen is handed over to a foreign minister, I don't know what tricks they will come up with to deceive the emperor into embezzling ink and money?" With a high-sounding statement, Feng Bao asked: "By the way, Qingyang, you have a suitable candidate in your mind, but our family didn't expect it after thinking about it for a few days!" ”

Song Qing raised his eyebrows, his eyes rolled and began to ponder the various officials of the maritime yamen, he had expected that Feng Baohui would be greedy for the maritime yamen, and his homework preparation was sufficient.

"Father-in-law, the lower officials think that Wang Siming is the most suitable among the Qing officials of the Maritime Yamen!" Suddenly, a thought popped up, Song Qingyang high-fived and said, this Wang Siming is definitely the most suitable person.

Since he has moved his mind about the maritime yamen, Wang Siming's Feng Bao knows it, after all, the Qing official is a very important errand, and now when he heard Song Qingyang's words, he frowned lightly and said: "Qingyang, this Wang Siming is Shen Chongming's sworn friend, I'm afraid he won't easily take refuge in our family!" ”

"Hehe, my father-in-law may not know, if you want to say that this Wang Siming, that is the Jinke list back then, he is definitely a high-minded and arrogant person, but this person is also unlucky, after getting acquainted with Shen Chongming and Shi Bingzheng and others. Although he had something to do with Gao Gong, he didn't get much benefit, but later he was implicated because of the discord between Xu Jie and Gao Gong, and it took a few years! ”

As soon as Song Qingyang's words fell, Feng Bao immediately became interested: "Oh, it turns out that there are still these twists and turns, so how can you quickly tell me how Wang Siming can be used by me?" ”

"Father-in-law, you don't know, later Gao Gong was reinstated, Shen Chong's famous teacher Bingzheng followed the great light, and the two of them have prospered in official fortune, until today from the second and third grades of the high position, but Wang Siming is much worse, and now he is just a Qing official of the fifth grade, comparing his heart to his heart, it must be inevitable that he has some resentment in his heart!"

Song Qingyang's analysis is very thorough, this is also his personal feeling, whenever he thinks that Shen Chongming is already a member of the second grade, and then sees that he is a small official from the eighth grade, he is so angry that the root of his teeth itches, and compares his heart to his heart, he does have the confidence to conclude what Wang Siming thinks in his heart, even if he doesn't, he also believes that with his three-inch incorruptible tongue, Wang Siming can be made full of resentment towards Shen Chongming, and at that time, it will be the day when Wang Siming takes refuge in Feng Bao.

Hearing his analysis, Feng Bao couldn't help but nod and praised: "Qingyang, you are really kind-hearted, with you by your side, our family can sit back and relax!" ”

"Qing Yang was originally the power of his father-in-law to serve dogs and horses!" Song Qingyang hurriedly expressed his loyalty, he would never let go of such an opportunity.

"Hehe, then I'll leave this matter to you, we're waiting for your good news!" Feng Bao smiled, his face was full of pride,
