After the British public summons, the order of the official was issued quickly.

Pingyang County, Wenzhou Prefecture, Zhang Bin, five years of the Apocalypse, a large plan and a case inspection, talented, honest, diligent, young, all of them are superior, and he served as a member of the Qing Officials Division of the Southern Military Department.

After receiving the order, Zhang Bin was overjoyed, and was promoted three levels in a row, and sure enough, he was promoted three levels in a row.

Three years later, as long as the British Duke or even Cao Huachun said a word, it would be easy to be promoted to one level, and then he would be eligible to compete for the position of governor of Fujian.

As for whether to fight or not, he is not worried at all, when he is the governor of Fujian, he will go to level pirates, and it is estimated that there are few who dare to go.

Besides, Emperor Chongzhen is notoriously unblown, as long as you dare to blow it, he dares to use it.

However, there must be a bottom to bragging, if you blow the cowhide without a bottom line and blow the cowhide, it will be dead.

Suppressing the cowhide of pirates, ordinary people really don't dare to blow it, but Zhang Bin has no pressure, because he is more sure than Xiong Wencan to recruit Zheng Zhilong.

Of course, these are all things in the future, it's still early now, now, what he can do is to go to Jinling, make friends with Cao Huachun, win over Bi Maokang, and encircle the generals of the Qi family's army, so as to lay a solid foundation for bragging in the future.

After receiving the order, Zhang Bin immediately went to the British Mansion to thank him, and then led Xie Zhenggang and others on a journey to Nanzhili.

It is about more than 2,000 miles from Shuntianfu in the north to Yingtianfu in the south, and there is no time limit for the dispatch of the officials anyway, Zhang Bin is not in a hurry, he still takes everyone to Jinling at a speed of less than 100 miles a day.

Out of the capital, Fang went to Zhuozhou, Zhang Bin wrote a letter to his family, added some money, and asked the post station to send it to Fujian and bring it to the Dajin Institute.

Jinling, is the place where Taizu Hongwu Dynasty built the capital, divided into the inner city and the outer city, the inner city has thirteen city gates, the outer city has eighteen city gates, the north and south are not less than 40 miles, and there are more than 120 miles along the city to turn around.

There are dozens of streets, hundreds of alleys, and alleys in the city, and there are six or seven hundred large and small restaurants and more than 1,000 tea houses.

It is said that there are 480 temples in the Southern Dynasty, and in the Ming Dynasty, there are more than 880 temples in this Jinling City.

After more than 20 days, Zhang Bin and his entourage finally arrived at Jinling City, when they entered the city, there was no brocade guard to fight the autumn breeze, and the group was deliberately divided into three groups, staggered into the city, so that it was not so conspicuous, this time, there were no guards who even came up to check.

However, after entering the capital, it was not as smooth as the capital, and the group was the first time to Jinling, and they were not familiar with the city at all, so they inquired all the way, and it took nearly an hour to find Chang'an Street near the Jinling Imperial City.

Fortunately, there are more temples in Jinling City than in the capital, and there is no need to look for a place to live, Zhang Bin simply found a home near the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies and the Yamen of the Six Ministries, rented a courtyard, and lived there.

There was nothing to say all night, and the next morning, before the time came, Zhang Bin habitually got up, had breakfast with everyone, and explained again, and then walked alone to the six yamen not far away.

The layout outside the Imperial City of Jinling is a bit similar to the capital, and it is also a street in the middle, with the military yamen of the five armies on the left, such as the Governor's Mansion, the Jinyi Guard, and the Bannerman Guard, and the civilian yamen such as the Six Divisions, the Hanlin Academy, and the Zhan Shifu on the right, and even when he walks into the military department, he has a sense of déjà vu.

These six yamen are simply too similar to the six yamen in the capital, they are all a row of small squares in front, they are all rows of small bungalows inside, and even the gates are exactly the same.

However, this time, his treatment was completely different, he just found the porter and handed over the order, and the porter actually stood up with a nod and led him inside.

Zhang Bin is so strange, he looked at the door and couldn't help asking, "Don't you need to look at this door?" ”

The porter smiled and said: "Lord Zhang, don't you know, our Nandu Sixth Department was originally an idle yamen, and few people came, even if someone came, let him wait by himself, and it was only right for the small one to lead the way for you." ”

This is not nonsense, the entire Jinling City seems to be the most deserted on this street, and it is most appropriate to describe it as a sparrow at the door, which is far less lively than in front of the six yamen in the capital.

Since people don't care about leaving their posts without permission, Zhang Bin naturally won't object, he didn't hesitate to follow the gatekeeper inside, and asked as he walked: "This official has just arrived, and I don't know the rules in the yamen, which adult is the first to see?" ”

The porter hurriedly smiled and said, "There are not many rules, not many, and the officials of the yamen are all here to see Lord Yang." ”

Lord Yang, isn't it Yang Wenzhong, the secretary of the Southern Capital Military Department?

Before he came, he inquired about the head of the Nandu Bingshu, but he only heard about two, one was Shangshu Yang Wenzhong, and the other was Shen Zhengzong, the right waiter, and the other left waiter and each Shilang didn't know anything.

In fact, this Yang Wenzhong and Shen Zhengzong are not famous, and there is no record in the history books.

He chatted with the porter for a few words, and soon came to the outside of a larger study, where the porter no longer went inside, but stood at the door and said loudly: "The new secretary of the party, Lord Zhang, asks to see him." ”

Soon, a majestic voice inside responded, "Come in." ”

When the porter heard this, he made a gesture to invite in, and then nodded and walked away.

Zhang Bin stood at the door, straightened his clothes, and then walked in respectfully.

The area inside is quite large, the entrance is a screen, the turn is a table of eight immortals, and then there is a large desk.

At this time, an old man in his fifties was sitting behind a desk and looking at him with a smile.

This should be Shangshu Yang Wenzhong, Zhang Bin stepped forward respectfully, bowed and said, "Xiaguan Zhang Bin see Lord Shangshu." ”

Yang Wenzhong actually stood up with a smile, walked up to him, took his arm and said cordially: "It's Shuangquan, don't be polite, come, come, sit down and talk." ”

With that, he pulled him to the table of the Eight Immortals and motioned for him to sit down together.

Zhang Bin is strange, a scholar, why is he so polite to a foreigner, does he know his background?

The problem is that his father is a thousand households with five grades, which is far worse than this Shangshu master.

Although he was inexplicable, this Shangshu Lord asked him to sit, he could only sit down respectfully, raise his head and chest, and listen to the teaching.

Yang Wenzhong glanced at him up and down, and then smiled: "Shuangquan, I didn't expect you to be so young, when you received the documents from the Ministry of Officials in the capital, the official thought they had made a mistake." ”

This means, that is, I didn't expect you to come to retire at such a young age, it's really incomprehensible!

Zhang Bin was speechless, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, after all, he still didn't know how to answer, so he could only continue to listen to the teaching.

Yang Wenzhong seemed to just sigh, and then asked, "Shuangquan, do you know Master Sun Chengzong?" ”

This means, as if asking, are you from the Donglin Party?

Zhang Bin hurriedly shook his head and said, "I don't know." ”

Yang Wenzhong didn't care, and then smiled again: "Young man, it's inevitable that you are a little angry, did you quarrel with someone?" ”

This means, as if asking, have you offended people, otherwise, if you are so young, and you are a second-class jinshi, and the assessment is still superior, how can you be promoted and secretly demoted by people, and you are relegated here to retire?

Zhang Bin is so depressed, he understands, this guy is an old oilman, he obviously wants to ask himself how he was relegated here, but he doesn't want to offend people, he talks around and around, like playing dumb riddles.

This dumb riddle is really a headache, he thought about it, and simply said half-truthfully: "My lord, don't hide it, the reason why Xia Guan came here is the meaning of Grandpa Guo, there is a lot of competition in the capital at this time, and Grandpa Guo is afraid that I will accidentally get involved, so let me come here for a few years first, and then go back when the wind and waves are calm over there." ”

Yang Wenzhong was stunned when he heard this, and then asked cautiously: "Grandpa Guo, do you mean the British Princess?" ”

It seemed that this product understood what he wanted to express, Zhang Bin pretended to admire, and said proudly: "Exactly, my ancestor was fortunate to serve under the command of King Dingxing." ”

King Dingxing was posthumously sealed after the death of the first British Duke Zhang Fu, and there was no other semicolon.

When Yang Wenzhong heard this, his face instantly became like a smile, and his tone became more cordial, as if he had re-acquainted Zhang Bin, and he said in a tone full of appreciation: "I'll just say, how can a young and promising cadre like Shuangquan with outstanding political achievements accompany us old men to retire here?" It turned out that Grandpa Guo arranged to come to practice, and the future is immeasurable, the future is immeasurable! ”

When Zhang Bin heard this, his face turned red, and he said modestly: "My lord has won the award, I don't know what the lower officials should do." ”

Do what? This is here to boil his qualifications, and he dares to arrange what he does, Yang Wenzhong hurriedly shook his head and said: "Shuangquan, you also know what kind of yamen the Sixth Department of the Southern Capital is, but our military department still has some things to do sometimes, so we must arrange a rotation." ”

It turns out that you don't have to work every day, this is good, Zhang Bin hurriedly nodded and said: "The lower officials understand, but it is up to the adults to decide." ”

Yang Wenzhong nodded, and said with relief: "Shuangquan is worthy of being a diligent person, so let's do it, in the future, you will be on duty on the ninth, nineteenth, and twenty-ninth of every month." ”

Sitting on three days a month, this is still called diligence, Zhang Bin is speechless.

However, he didn't want to make a name for himself here, he still had a lot to do, so naturally the more leisurely, the better, so he hurriedly bowed his hand and said, "The lower officials obey orders." ”

Yang Wenzhong finally reminded: "Well, remember to fill in the booklet every day, this is to be checked." ”

Well, it turns out that as long as you find a time to fill up the booklets, even if you are on duty every day, these people will really be lazy.
