(Thank you book friends for your "If Love"!) ）

Qian Qianyi means that through his own persuasion, his son will definitely be able to listen to his words and stay in his hometown. The son is still young, and the fame is very great, there will be many opportunities to make a comeback in the future, Qian Qianyi was also in his hometown for 20 years as a shrinking turtle, and finally looked forward to Chongzhen's death, before he went out of the mountain again to serve as the secretary of the Ministry of Rites.

But when Qian Qianyi saw that his son insisted on going to Beijing, the angry Qian Qianyi hung his back and scolded Qian Yiai with a trembling finger: "Rebel! Unfilial son! has been an official for my father all my life, are things in officialdom not as good as you? If you go to Beijing, you will definitely be used by Ma Mingyuan, can you be a prefect who can deal with the first assistant of the dynasty? ”

Hearing Lao Tzu scolding himself, Qian Yiai stood up and slowly knelt down for Qian Qianyi, and then said, "Dad! Please listen to your son! Dad, Ma Mingyuan is in power, but don't forget, Dad, the current emperor is not Emperor Wanli, nor Emperor Hongzhi, and he will not be swayed by courtiers! The son is now betting his chips on the emperor's side, betting that the emperor will definitely be able to suppress the cabinet! ”

Qian Qianyi saw his son's appearance as if he saw himself back then, he was a tanhua in his twenties, and then went to Beijing to be an official in high spirits. At that time, he always thought that he would not meet talents, so he criticized current politics in Beijing and belittled Wei Zhongxian. You must know that it was the year of the Apocalypse, and Wei Zhongxian and other eunuchs were in full swing. Qian Qianyi's actions naturally did not end well, and he was soon attacked by Cui Chengxiu and others and went to prison.

Qian Qianyi saw that his son was about to follow his old path, and was just about to say something to stop him, but he knew that Qian Yiai said first: "Dad, now it is different from before, there is no eunuch party in the court, and the current emperor is not the emperor of the apocalypse!" My son is twenty-two years old this year, and he has been an official for a few years, please don't worry about his son! His Majesty's holy decree told his son to leave on the same day, and the son should go back to Nanjing to clean up, and ask his father to take care of his health! ”

After Qian Yiai finished speaking, he kowtowed to his father a few times, and then got up and went back to Nanjing. Qian Qianyi watched his son leave, and his heart was mixed, the child was older and no longer listening to his parents!

Qian Yiai left his hometown in Changshu and returned to Nanjing, and first went to Yingtianfu to bid farewell to the prefect Ma Jingyuan.

Ma Jingyuan, as Qian Yiai's superior, still admires this young man, and at the same time, Ma Jingyuan also knows that this time His Majesty adjusted the administrative division of the world, and the rights of the north and south capitals were greatly strengthened. At the same time, the holy decree clearly stated that the two capitals of the north and south and Fengtianfu were directly under the management of the central government, and they were at the same level as the governors of the provinces, so the power was too great.

Ma Jingyuan is three years older than Zhu Hongsan, he is forty-one years old this year, Ma Jingyuan's life has been bumpy, he offended Zhu Hongsan when he was young and was assigned to be an ordinary soldier, and when he arrived in Guangdong, he went to be the magistrate of Xia County for a few years, and only in the past few years has he become the prefect of Yingtianfu with the help of the prince. Because of these circumstances, Ma Jingyuan has already seen through this officialdom, and after he received the emperor's holy decree to upgrade the two capitals in the north and south, he thought that Beijing Shuntianfu should send the second-echelon officials in the Huguang faction to take over, but where did he think that the emperor chose Qian Yiai.

Qian Yiai is only in his twenties this year, and he is very good in his own right, plus he is a close friend of the prince, and there is an endorsement from the Donglin Party in the back, so he will definitely be a new political star in the future. After Ma Jingyuan knew this, he even had a relationship with Qian Yiai's peers, and he didn't put on any official shelf at all.

Ma Jingyuan knew that Qian Yiai personally greeted him when he came to visit, introduced Qian Yiai into his study, and then said with a smile: "Zigao! Congratulations, old man! At a young age, he became a high-ranking official of the third grade, and his future is limitless! ”

Qian Yiai only received the holy decree to take over the Shuntian Mansion, and he didn't know that the emperor had raised him by one level, but now when he heard Ma Jingyuan say this, he hurriedly asked: "Three products?" Isn't Shuntianfu from Sanpin? ”

"It seems that Zigao doesn't know yet! The emperor separated the two capitals in the north and south and Fengtianfu, and they were all under the direct management of the central government, and the chief officials were all three grades, and they were at the same level as the governor! ”

"I see! The lower officials came in a hurry, and they didn't hear about it, so they dared to ask Master Ma, where is this Fengtian Mansion? "Qian Yiai has only heard of Shuntianfu, Yingtianfu, and Chengtianfu, which is this Fengtianfu?

"Fengtianfu is the emperor's hometown Wuchang, the emperor merged Wuchang Mansion and Hanyang Mansion on the other side of the river to form Fengtianfu, and the prefect is also a high-ranking official of Zhengsanpin. This Chengtianfu is located in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River, and in ancient times, it was the thoroughfare of the nine provinces, and it was not much worse than Shuntianfu and Yingtianfu! ”

So it was, the emperor upgraded his hometown. But this is also human nature, that person wants to benefit his fellow villagers when he gets a high position, and Emperor Jiajing can even make Chengtianfu into Anlu, which is poor and bad, not to mention Wuchang and Hanyang, which are geographically very important.

Qian Yiai came to Ma Jingyuan here just to say goodbye politely, and then he had to go back to pack his luggage and move his family north. Although the ground in Shandong is not peaceful now, because of the role of grain and the local government's crackdown on bandits, the canal is still very safe.

Qian Yiai arrived outside the Chaoyang Gate in Beijing just in time for a heavy snowfall, and the snow was white everywhere, the towering Beijing city wall nearby, and the looming Yanshan Mountains in the distance, which was very much a bit of a northern.

Qian Yiai stood at the bow of the boat wearing a white burnt bag, he was a high-ranking official at a young age, and his heart was full of great revenge for the country and the people, so he naturally casually chanted a poem: The past moon is like day, and the clouds are dark. The jade flowers fly in the middle of the night, and the green waves dance next year. There is no seed left in the beetle, and the exile occupies a little land. Sui Fengjun is not happy, when will Zhong Qi be compiled.

Just when Qian Yi's love was burning the poem, a chuckle like a silver bell came from the cabin: "Hehe, sister, you see that our stupid husband is dropping his bookbag again, and I don't know whose little lady I want to seduce!" ”

The woman who spoke was Qian Yiai's concubine Zhao, that is, Zhao Mengguan's daughter-in-law. Although Zhao Mengguan is a martial artist, he has always educated this baby daughter carefully, and he invited a female gentleman to teach him at home in Guangdong, so he still knows some poetry, calligraphy and painting. And Qian Yiai's eldest wife was born in the Chen family, a famous family in Guangdong, and her knowledge is only higher than that of Qian Yiai, who was born in a person, so Qian Yiai's knowledge at home is the lowest.

Qian Yiai was a little uncomfortable being teased by the concubine, and said with a straight face: "What do you women know?" The song "Hetian Guobo Xixue" chanted for the husband came from Su Shi, hoping that this heavy snow would indicate a good harvest next year, and the husband is now a parent, so he is naturally responsible for the people under his rule! ”

The concubine Zhao didn't dare to speak when she saw that Qian Yiai was angry, and Chen said in the cabin: "Xianggong, now that we are in the place, is it so that our sisters can get off the boat, I am so sulking along the way!" ”

Qian Yiai had no choice but to ask the family to go to the shore dock to hire a few small sedan chairs and carry them onto the boat for the ladies to ride.

This is the first time Qian Yiai has come to Beijing, and he is very curious about what he sees after going ashore, especially the camel and horse team at the city gate, which has been watching for a long time. But when I arrived at the city gate, the mood of reciting poetry just now was gone.

Beijing is different from Nanjing, Nanjing has been under the rule of Zhu Hongsan for many years, the city is cleaned up very clean, there is a public toilet not far from both sides of the road, and there are Jinyi guards along the street from time to time to inspect, so the street sanitation is very clean. But here in Beijing, it is different, outside Chaoyang Gate are granaries and shops, there are crowds everywhere, just now the heavy snow has stopped, everything is covered by heavy snow and nothing can be seen. Now after being trampled by the crowd, the sewage and mud on the ground have turned up. In addition, the side ditches on both sides of the street were not cleaned, and they were blocked for a long time, and the shops on both sides of the street poured sewage outside, so the whole Chaoyang Gate was filled with a smell of human and animal feces. Qian Yiai is very clean, and he is used to living in Nanjing, where can he stand this taste.

At this time, there was a long queue outside Chaoyang Gate, and a large number of grain transportation teams and merchants were queuing up to pay the entrance fee to enter the city, but Qian Yiai and his party did not have to queue, as the ruling class, this right still exists.

The palanquin man carried the small sedan chair to the city gate, and an ambassador guarding the gate saw a beautiful young man getting down from the sedan chair, wearing an extremely burning bag, and knew that this must be the noble son of which family.

The ambassador hurriedly stepped forward and saluted, and asked, "May I ask which noble family this son is, but he wants to enter the city!" ”

Qian Yiai watched the sedan chair for a long time, and finally found a dry place on the ground to get off the sedan chair, but the smell in the air was very unpleasant. Qian Yiai covered his nose with a handkerchief and asked, "You are the gatekeeper ambassador of Chaoyangmen?" ”

As soon as the gatekeeper heard that this son had a Jiangsu and Zhejiang accent, he knew that this must be a great nobleman! The capital is now full of officials with Huguang, Guangdong, Jiangsu, and Zhejiang accents, all of whom came to the north with the emperor's Northern Expedition as officials, although the number is very small, but all of them are great people. The beautiful boy in front of him was wearing a literati robe and a Jiangsu-Zhejiang accent, he must be the son of the big guy in the court.

The ambassador didn't care about the muddy ground, and quickly knelt on the ground and kowtowed, saying: "The kid is the ambassador of Chaoyangmen, dare to ask which adult in the court is the noble son?" ”

At this time, Qian Fang, the little scholar who was beloved by Qian and his housekeeper, scolded: "Blind your dog's eyes, my master is the new prefect of Shuntian Mansion!" ”

Although Shuntianfu is attached to the prefect of Guo, in the eyes of the ministers of the DPRK and the central government, it is a punching bag and an unlucky egg, but in the eyes of this unpopular gatekeeper, the prefect of Shuntianfu is an eyelid and an ancestor!

After the ambassador knew that this was his direct superior, he hurriedly asked all the tax collectors from Chaoyangmen to come and visit the prefect.

Qian Yiai looked at more than a dozen people, some old and some young, kneeling on the ground, calling them old parents, Qian Yiai frowned and said, "Okay, get up!" This official hasn't taken office yet, and he's not even your official! ”
