Volume 2 Dijing Wind and Rain Chapter 140 Daxing County Order
Hu Hu was waiting for the emperor's question, and immediately smiled: "In fact, His Majesty saw him two days ago. ”
"Huh?" Zhu Qizhen was slightly stunned, and couldn't help asking: "What, is the person who built this airship actually an official of the DPRK and China?" This was a bit of a surprise to me. ”
"Exactly, this person is Lu Jin, the commander of Guangling County, who was allowed by His Majesty to come forward to answer at the first day of the first dynasty." Hu Hu immediately gave the answer.
"Is it him? I didn't expect that this Lu Zhen can not only govern the place, but also have the courage and knowledge, but also have such skills? This really impressed me. As he spoke, the Son of Heaven looked up at the airship hanging high in the air again, and began to praise it in his mouth.
"This person does have some ability, so Yichen's little foolishness is that the court should promote and use him." Hu Hu immediately struck the iron and said as if it was hot.
The Son of Heaven nodded thoughtfully: "What you said is right, it is my luck to have such a talent in the court, and it is also my luck, and he should be promoted well." By the way, Mr. Hu, you are the secretary of the ministry, and you must know best what vacancies there are, so why not recommend one or two? ”
"The minister couldn't think of any official position suitable for that Lu Zhen before, but now he has it."
"But what?" The Emperor asked curiously.
"It's the post of the county magistrate of Daxing County, the capital! Daxing, as the attached Guo County of the capital of the Ming Dynasty, its importance is self-evident, and there must be a capable and courageous person to preside over the situation. Although Lu Zhen is not very old, judging from what he has done in the past, he is a person who can be entrusted with important responsibilities, I don't know what His Majesty's holy will is? Hu Hui said what he meant.
The Son of Heaven thought for a moment, then nodded: "Mr. Hu is really the pillar of my court, and he is very old. Yes, having Lu Zhen as the magistrate of Daxing County should be able to make me feel a little more at ease. ”
As soon as he said this, the fact that Lu Zhen sat on the Daxing County Order was already certain. And after such a result, many people who were envious, jealous and hated before for Lu Jin's ability to enter the eyes of the Son of Heaven twice in a row were balanced, because everyone knew that the chair of Daxing County was really not easy to sit on. Generally speaking, it is difficult for officials in this position to have a good death, and they often lose their positions after a year and a half for one or another reason, and even the future of ten years of hard work is also taken into it.
Although Lu Zhen did show extraordinary strength before, he was still just a stunned young man in the eyes of everyone, and it is conceivable what the final result would be when such a guy became the commander of Daxing County.
At the same time, many people wondered why Hu Hu wanted to do this today, and even brought the Son of Heaven to the school to perform this play. You must know that as the secretary of the ministry, he has enough power to arrange Lu Zhen to the position of the county order of Daxing, after all, this is just a six-grade county order. He's doing it a little too much.
Only a few people have seen its true purpose. Hu Hu promoted Lu Zhen to Daxing County Commander through the mouth of the Son of Heaven, not only to justify his name, but also to protect this young official. Because only the impression left in the heart of the Son of Heaven did not dare to attack Wang Zhen, who had been greatly offended by him. It can be said that Hu Hu is completely painstaking to protect Lu Jin.
Sure enough, after hearing this sentence from the Son of Heaven, Wang Zhen's face was gloomy again, but he was helpless. He knew that he couldn't use forces like Dongchang to deal with Lu Jin for the time being, otherwise he would only cause more trouble for himself. Of course, he still intends to take revenge on the other party, but he has to do it more cleverly and covertly, and even use a conspiracy instead of a conspiracy.
Through Hu Hui's series of actions today, Wang Zhen once again confirmed one thing - his voice in the court is still too little, and if he wants to succeed, he still has to cultivate his own connections and power in the court as soon as possible.
After admiring the floating airship for a while, and restraining the idea of boarding it in person to take a look at the scenery below, Zhu Qizhen made an order to drive back to the palace. At this time, it was almost dusk, and it was really impossible to delay outside, otherwise as soon as the palace door was locked according to the rules, the master of the palace would be locked outside.
However, the impact of this airship launch did not end with the return of the Son of Heaven to the palace, because the people in the city saw this strange thing appear in the sky.
This airship floats in the air in a magical way, which can be described as a miracle for ordinary people. Countless people knelt on the ground because of this, and some took out incense tables to worship, they all thought that this was some holy thing that the gods and Buddhas in the sky had descended on.
For this reason, many folk readers also wrote a lot of notes and prose, all mentioning this strange scene in July of the ninth year of orthodoxy, and bluntly said that this is an auspicious day from heaven, and it is a manifestation of God's protection of my Ming Dynasty.
For a time, everyone inside and outside the capital rejoiced, and even many temples and Taoist temples were also prosperous. The situation that had caused panic in the hearts of people because of the successive murders had finally been reversed again, which was a bit unexpected by Hu Hu.
Of course, not everyone will be happy about this incident, and after Wang Zhen went back, he lost his temper fiercely.
He did have a reason to be angry, because in the past few years, he has never lost face like this. The hundred households named Yang Zhen of Jinyiwei actually broke through the net laid by Xu Gong, not only escaped and went to Jiangnan, but also killed the ambushers as a demonstration. As a result, Wang Zhen distrusted Xu Gong, an incompetent subordinate, even more, and he had completely begun to replace him, as for the candidate, it was his nephew Ma Shun.
But at least for a short time, he won't put this idea into action, because in the eyes of the prince, Lu Jin, the guy who suddenly defected and lost his face, is the most damned one.
Although he couldn't use force against him because of this scene—after all, this was an official who was recorded by the Son of Heaven, and no one knew when he would remember this person and ask a couple of questions—but he could still do something behind his back, make him make a big mistake, and then use the laws of the court to deal with him. And these, obviously Jinyiwei's people are a good choice, so he also wants to use Xu Gong again.
When Xu Gong was called to Wang Zhen, his performance was even more panicked than last time. No way, who told him to mess things up again?
But this time, Wang Zhen didn't have too much of a seizure, just snorted coldly at him a few times and said: "Yang Zhen's matter can only be put on hold for a while now, and you don't have any manpower in Jiangnan, right?" ”
"Yes......" Xu Gong wiped the sweat from his forehead and whispered: "Xia Guan really didn't expect them to be so alert, and they can even kill with such a layout......"
"Hmph, that's because you don't know how to use people. That's it, let's not mention this time, let's give you another chance to atone for your sins, this time you don't mess things up again. ”
"Father-in-law, please command, the lower official must go all out." Xu Gong hurriedly responded, he could see that this might be his last chance. If something goes wrong, I'm afraid that the commander of the Jinyi Guard will have to change this position.
"That Lu Zhen not only has to be safe this time, but he has taken the position of the Daxing County Commander, and even our family is not good at fighting him. So only by using some extraordinary means can I do it, I want your Jinyi guards to keep an eye on him for me, as well as the people from the Daxing County Ya, etc., have also figured out the bottom for me, and I want to make it difficult for him to move an inch in the county Ya. Wang Zhen was obviously angry at this time, and his words were no longer so subtle.
Seeing this, Xu Gong couldn't help but snort, and hurriedly agreed. I also made a decision in my heart, no matter how hard I put in my efforts, I had to do everything successfully. Fortunately, this is just a county magistrate, and there is always a way to calculate him.
@@@@@
In addition to Wang Zhen, in fact, there is another person who also hates Lu Jin, who was suddenly awarded by the imperial court, and this is the second-in-command in the county government, and the county is Lu Tu.
He is just a famous person, but with his shrewd mind and ability to drill camps, he is actually like a fish in water at the bottom of the Ming officialdom. For more than ten years, although he has been a deputy and a second officer, he has actually gone all the way up, and he has always been the county leader of Daxing County.
Moreover, he has also been in the position of the county leader for four years, and he has bought off the entire county government.
The previous county magistrate relied on his guidance in many things, and even in a sense, he was the person in charge of the Daxing County Yali. There was a case a few days ago, and it was precisely because of his hindrance in the back that his boss was completely unable to investigate the case, and finally ended up in a sad end.
Lu Tu thought that with his many years of operation, coupled with the fact that the position of Daxing County was not popular, not many people would compete with him, so it should be in his pocket. Unexpectedly, in just two days, the officials sent the paperwork, saying that there was a new county for people to choose, and it was Lu Jin, the county commander who was transferred from Guangling County, Shanxi!
When he saw this document, Lu Tu's whole face was a little distorted and deformed, and he hated it in his heart. Could it be that because he was born just as a person, the officials in the court have never taken themselves seriously? Is it destined that he can only be a small assistant official, and there is no possibility of sitting on that chair in a dignified manner?
He can't accept such an outcome, and he wants to fight back, to change this unjust outcome. With a gloomy face, Lu Tu looked at the paperwork in his hand, and finally stared at the dazzling name: "Lu Jin?" What virtue do you have as a border county magistrate, how can you dare to come to Daxing to serve as a county magistrate? I'll let you know how hard it is to be a Jingguan! ”
