At the same time that Mianying received the promotion document of the ministry, even Yuchang and the other three also got the emperor's secret decree, and they were all overjoyed. People on both sides are clear about the fact that the Thai Union is finished. Mianying has heard of Sun Yong's bad deeds, but compared to the governor, Xuezheng's greed for ink is far inferior. But for those three imperial historians, as scholars and politicians, it is undoubtedly a dereliction of duty to not be able to fairly select scholars and provide excellent reserve talents for the imperial court, let alone accepting bribes.

On the second day of the second month of February, the three imperial historians entered the governor's yamen with the emperor's holy decree in hand, and were dismissed from the post of governor of Tai Yi Tong in public. Tai Yingtong, who had not received a little wind beforehand, took the will weakly, and there was a feeling that the general trend had gone. However, many years of eunuch journey still lifted his spirits, after all, Sichuan is a place where he has been operating for a long time, even if the emperor dismissed him, if there is no solid evidence, he has to punish Lian Yuchang and others under pressure, and then rehabilitate him.

It is precisely because of this that even though the position of governor has been vacated, there are fewer and fewer people who dare to speak the truth. After they dismissed Sun Yong step by step, there was an uproar in Sichuan Tong Province, what did these three nerd Yushi want to do? Everyone was talking about it, and many people thought they were crazy, and some people who wanted to fish in troubled waters suddenly shrank back and cautiously observed the starting trend.

Mianying's promotion was particularly eye-catching in this chaotic scene, and the red-eyed officials even chewed their tongues behind their backs, but Lian Yuchang and the three of them didn't know his weight in this big case, but deliberately kept a distance from him. This seems to outsiders to be a bit of a cover-up, and Mianying can't laugh or cry about it. However, people who really have a heart know the backstage of this prefect, so the people who visit the mansion are often micro-obedient and want to get something out of his mouth.

On this day, the one who came to visit was Sun Yong's fellow countryman, Hu Nanjing, the political envoy of Sichuan, and when the governor Tai Xiantong was in office, he obeyed everything and stammered as if he was serving his father. At this time, seeing that he was in trouble, his mind suddenly became active again. In terms of the number of years he has been an official, Hu Nanjing is also an old official who has been in the mess for nearly 20 years, but he is helpless because he comes from a poor family, and most of his colleagues laugh at him, and secondly, the senior officials of the DPRK and the Central Committee look down on him, so although he has been transferred many times between provinces, he has never been promoted.

At this time, sitting in front of Mianying, who was nearly twenty years younger than him, Hu Nanjing looked like he sighed. In the greetings just now, Mianying's dripping style made him feel a deep headache, and it seemed that he had to aggravate his tone a little more, he didn't believe that Mianying could be promoted for no reason at such a moment. Thinking that he is a second-class master, he is so polite in front of the small prefect, who will believe it? It's just that this kid's water grinding kung fu is really powerful, no wonder the master behind him is so important, and his promotion is much faster than ordinary people, it's really a good fate!

"Lord Wei doesn't know that although the governor and the political envoy are at the same level, according to the laws of the imperial court, the governor is in charge of the administrative power of the province, and I, the political envoy of the district, is just a subordinate official. Now even adults have actually hit me with their ideas, which is really more wronged than Dou E! Hu Nanjing looked at Mianying's reaction while screaming, but to his disappointment, the young man next to him was still a calm and calm face.

"Lord Hu, the three Imperial Historians are capable members sent by the Supervision Yuan, but they don't know much about this province, and there will inevitably be mistakes in their actions." Mianying smiled and comforted, "Now that Lord Tai has seen the sin, the provincial government affairs are all on the shoulders of the adult, and it is indeed difficult for the adult." A pawn like Xia Guan can only say two good words behind his back, and he can only be carried by you on the bright side, I believe that even adults will not be able to see this. As long as the adults can leave a good impression on them, it is not possible to increase the rank of official in the future. ”

This is equivalent to saying nothing, Hu Nanjing was depressed, but after chewing the words carefully, he tasted something, isn't it true that Tai Yitong is really going to get off the horse this time? He tried a few more words, but Mianying didn't want to say more. After an hour, Hu Nanjing had to leave in a huff, but his expression was a little different than when he came.

Mianying watched Hu Nanjing leave, knowing that her little hint would definitely be understood by this old fox, as long as someone started, I was afraid that those who followed the trend would flock to it. Although he had sent vital account books to the capital, the far-sighted emperor could use this to dismiss Tai Yetong from his post, but he would never be convicted on this basis. The details of the officials involved above are shocking, if it weren't for their sensitive identity, maybe they wouldn't be able to get the credit, and in the end they would have to be guilty. The party struggle in the imperial court was deliberately provoked by the emperor, and it was also suppressed by the imperial power, and this kind of check and balance is the best way to check and balance today.

Hu Nanjing really lived up to Mianying's expectations, and secretly sent someone to contact the three imperial historians. Although he is not as powerful as Tai Yitong, he is a political envoy of Sichuan, and he has a lot of henchmen, so it is not difficult to avoid the eyes and ears of those who have a heart. As for Lian Yuchang and the others, they were overjoyed, the emperor's thoughts were very clear to them, it was nothing more than a quick battle, it could not be protracted, and it could not drag mud and water, so they could only grasp Tai Yutong and Sun Yong, and with them as a breakthrough, they could not involve others. It's a pity that Hu Nanjing doesn't know this, otherwise I'm afraid he would have revealed the inside story a few days earlier.

Hu Nanjing is also scheming, in order to reduce the possibility of being discovered, he asked to meet Lian Yuchang alone, and the appointment place was set at the Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple outside the city. Although he has coveted the position of governor for a long time, he still has a deep fear of the huge forces behind Tai Chaotong. has not reached the point of exhaustion, he will never clash with them head-on, and the emperor will never easily abandon the He and Xiao families, which Hu Nanjing will not forget.

In the past few days, most of the people in the Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple are the daughters of the official family, and the bold actions of the three imperial historians have made these official wives invariably worried about their husbands' future. Therefore, asking God to ask the Buddha became the only way. They are all pampered people who have been pampered for a long time, and they don't go out of the door on weekdays, but they just take care of family affairs, and sometimes compete with the favored concubines, but they have to leave everything behind at this time. As long as he keeps the man's fame and future, he will be able to sit in the position of housewife in the future, so the majority of the people in the temple are full of pearls.

Hu Nanjing had already greeted the abbot Master Zhiyuan in advance and booked a clean meditation room. He is also a frequent guest, and he is extremely generous, and his family sends the usual amount of silver here every month, so Zhiyuan only agreed with a little groan, and specially sent a small novice to wait for another distinguished guest in Hu Nanjing's mouth.

As soon as Lian Yuchang entered the gate of the Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple, he couldn't help frowning, fortunately, he deliberately changed his outfit today, otherwise he wouldn't have to go in just looking at the officials there. Although he is already famous all over the world, he still stands out among middle-aged officials in his thirties, and now he has changed into a Confucian costume and looks a lot younger, quite like an ordinary outing scholar, so he did not attract too much attention along the way.

"The donor has a covenant with someone?" As soon as Lian Yuchang stepped into the backyard of the Zen temple, he saw a small novice hurriedly stepping forward, clasping his palms together and saluting, "This place is the private property of our temple, and there are many nobles wandering here. ”

This temple is such a big scene, even Yuchang's heart jumps, and the long-lost anger is about to attack. As a Confucian man who has read the scriptures and often recites the three outlines and five constants, he has always been disdainful of the gods and Buddhas. Barely holding back the anger in his heart, Lian Yuchang said coldly: "This little master, I do have an appointment with someone below, and I can't delay it, and I am tired of leading the way." He took out a small jade pendant from his sleeve and shook it slightly.

Xiao Shami's eyes were also sharp, and a courteous smile immediately appeared on his face. "It turned out to be a distinguished guest, but I was really snubbed, and I asked the donor to forgive me. There are already people waiting for the big driver in the clean room, please come with the little monk. After that, he stretched out his hand to lead the way, and Lian Yuchang followed quickly, but he sighed in his heart that the world was hot and cold, and even the Buddhist temple was not exempt from vulgarity, which added a little disgust to such corrupt officials and corrupt officials.

The little novice took Lian Yuchang to the door of a meditation room, signaled that the person he was waiting for was inside, and then bowed deeply and left. When Lian Yu Changfu entered the door, he saw Hu Nanjing sitting on a futon in a casual robe, and the tea stove next to him was hissing, looking leisurely and complacent. If Lian Yuchang hadn't known this person's temperament in advance, he would have thought that this person in front of him was really a cynical hermit.

He was not polite, he sat on the guest seat, and his sharp eyes stabbed straight at Hu Nanjing in front of him. "Master Hu has taken such great pains to invite me here, what do you have to advise? I'm a layman, and I don't appreciate the elegance of the tea ceremony, so adults don't have to bother. ”

Hu Nanjing was busy with the tea stove as if he hadn't heard of it, and only after a while did he turn his head, the smile on his face was unobstructed. "Drinking tea and doing things are actually the same thing, if you want to hurry, you can't reach it, even adults have been officials for many years, you should understand this truth." He looked at Lian Yuchang with deep meaning, and replied without flinching, "There are no less than hundreds of officials in Sichuan Tong Province, and the reason why they are unwilling to cooperate with adults is precisely because of this. Even the name of the adult's iron face can deter corrupt officials and corrupt officials, but it also discourages the vast majority of people, and with a little flexibility, the adult's trip to Sichuan can be extremely smooth. As at this moment, why can't the official be allowed to complete the tea ceremony? ”

Lian Yu often tried his best not to show a look of disgust, and he knew no less about Hu Nanjing than Tai Yutong, so he knew that he was not a clean official. However, since the emperor had spoken first, he had to act according to his orders and be flexible, and what he hated most was to be flexible. If it weren't for his father's flexibility, the man who was originally determined to work hard would not have lost his official position in the end, so he had already made up his mind as early as a child that he would eliminate all evil, so he was selected to enter the Supervision Yuan.
