Chapter 13: The Divine Decree Has Arrived

After three days, the people of Yongqing County are still living as always, and they don't know how long it will be before the leadership team in charge of a radius of 100 miles in this county will be replaced. Maybe some people have heard some rumors, but they don't know whether the officials who are about to be ushered in will be the master of the blue sky or some corrupt officials.

Yongqing County Ya, in the back garden.

"Virtuous nephew, get ready, pick me up!"

Lin Yongquan shouted violently, and the long sword in his hand was like a life-seeking steel snake, jumping straight to Wang Qian.

Seeing this, Wang Qian's eyes lit up, and he raised his sword eyebrows and shouted: "It's good to come!" ”

Said that it was too late, it was fast, Wang Qian waved the embroidered spring knife in his hand, in less than two seconds, the knife and the sword collided in the air no less than six or seven times, and the two weapons invariably made a sound of "zi, zi", if it was night at this time, then you must be able to see the junction of the two weapons, and sparks were colliding all the time.

This is Lin Yongquan and Wang Qian in the back garden of the county government to learn martial arts, I saw Wang Qian dressed in a black robe, with a delicate face, sword eyebrows and starry eyes, white bloom, waving an embroidered spring knife in his hand, so elegant. Because there was not much teaching and swordsmanship in the teaching of cold weapons in later generations, Wang Qian was still accustomed to using knives here, and the embroidered spring knife in his hand was borrowed by Wang Qian from Lin Yongquan. Flying fish robe embroidered with spring knife, this was the standard configuration of Jinyiwei at that time, because the appearance resembled a Tang knife, Wang Qian was also quite easy to use.

Two days ago, Wang Qian took the initiative to come to the door and proposed to join Jinyiwei, Lin Yongquan was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately drafted a document to recommend Wang Qian as a general flag officer under the command of Nanzhen Fusi. Now it can be said that as long as the appointment documents officially issued by the imperial court arrive, Wang Qian will be the chief banner of the Jinyi Guard, and the official of the seventh grade.

"Hahaha, virtuous nephew, if you talk about this fist and foot kung fu, I am not as good as you, but if you and I fight with weapons, we can only be regarded as equal!"

There was a hearty laugh in the courtyard, and I saw Lin Yongquan standing in place, putting away his sword and saying to Wang Qian.

Wang Qian shook his head and smiled bitterly, and said, "Uncle Lin, my master didn't teach me this sword kung fu." ”

His family knew his own affairs, and the use of cold weapons in later generations was very rare, and even training in the army was only empty-handed combat. Wang Qian was able to fight evenly with Lin Yongquan without knowing cold weapons, which was already rare.

"Haha, to be able to train an apprentice like you in a short period of time, your master is really a master! It's already rare to get such a master's guidance, and you kid don't dare to ask for anything more. Lin Yongquan's unique Chinese character face was full of smiles, and his posture was magnificent, and it could be seen that this Lord Lin was in a very good mood at the moment, and said: "It's not that I'm exaggerating, just your ability to fight with hand-to-hand, coupled with your smart footwork, there may be no one who is your opponent in my Nanzhen Fusi with bare hands, hahaha." ”

At this time, Wang Mao, who was watching the battle from the sidelines, also came over and said with a smile: "Yes, Qian'er, when he sees your master in the future, he must thank him for me, if he has the opportunity, he really wants to meet such a master." ”

In the past two days, Wang Qian and Wang Mao have said many things, including his own invented Dao Master Master, otherwise how can he explain the origin of his martial arts?

Hearing this, Wang Qian secretly smiled bitterly, where did the Taoist master come from, and where did he go to see him? It's better to take the two of them to Longhu Mountain five hundred years later to look for it.

Wang Qian touched his head in embarrassment, but still opened his mouth and replied with a smile: "That's a certainty, that's a certainty." ”

…………

The three of them chatted in the garden for a while, and Chen Qiu drove in with a person who looked like a eunuch, and ran to Wang Mao in a panic and said:

"Master, master, a holy decree has arrived!"

Then, the eunuch-looking man swaggered up to the three of them, glanced at the people in front of them, and shouted loudly: "Jinyi Wei Qianhu Lin Yongquan, Yongqing County Commander Wang Mao, take the order!" ”

Hearing this, Lin Yongquan and Wang Mao immediately knelt down on their knees, Wang Qian paused and knelt down, only to hear the two of them say in unison: "Minister, Lin Yongquan, Wang Mao, take the order, long live my emperor, long live, long live!" ”

"Fengtian carried the emperor's edict and said: Since Emperor Taizu Gao expelled the Northern Yuan Dynasty, within Jiuzhou, Haiyan River is clear, my Ming Dynasty has been founded for more than 100 years, and the power of the Chinese god has been raised in the world, and all the countries of the four seas are fearful. Today, there are traitors in Yongqing, smuggling weapons, selling lords for glory, and bringing disaster to the country and the people, which makes me feel sad. Yang Zhi, Chen Linchang and others aided in the abuse, which was really a heinous crime, and Yang Zhi, the chief secretary of Yongqing County, Chen Linchang, the master of Yongqing County, Xu Wen, the secretary of the household in Yongqing County, and Yang Er, the bandit, were immediately escorted into Beijing by the Jinyi guard, and were sent to the prison, waiting to be released. Yongqing County Commander Wang Mao is a county palm print, although he did not participate in this matter, but he was deceived by the gangsters to this point, which is really infuriating, and the responsibility of negligence has to be pursued. Wang Mao was immediately dismissed from the post of county magistrate of Yongqing County, and was issued with an edict to serve a one-year prison sentence, which was reactivated after the completion of the sentence. Lin Yongquan, a thousand households in Jinyi Weinan Town, has made meritorious contributions to solving cases, and he is an old man who has been serious and has repeatedly solved important cases. From now on, he will be promoted to the post of Fusi of Jinyi Weinan Town, and after dealing with the affairs of Yongqing, he will return to Beijing to resume his life. ”

"Lord Lin, Lord Wang, take the order."

The eunuch who came to announce the decree finished reading the decree and took a step forward in the aisle.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Seriously made a ceremony to receive the decree, the two stood up and opened, and Lin Yongquan took the holy decree.

"Father-in-law Chen, I have worked hard all the way, Lin has prepared turbid wine and thin dishes, and I will live in the county tonight."

"Lord Lin, this is exempt, congratulations to Lord Lin on his ascension, now please ask Lord Wang to escort Yang Zhi and other criminals out, and follow me into Beijing, our family is still waiting for the palace to rush to the palace before dark to report to the emperor."

The person known as Gonggong Chen looked at everyone and said.

Wang Qian frowned when he heard this, and muttered to himself, "Why are you in such a hurry." ”

As soon as the words came out, Wang Mao slanted his eyes coldly, and said in a low voice: "Qian'er, don't be rude!" What do you know? ”

Then he looked at Gonggong Chen and said respectfully: "Father-in-law, the dog is young and unreasonable, please don't be surprised, I will prepare immediately and enter Beijing with you." ”

"Okay, Lord Wang should hurry up as soon as possible, come here, go with Lord Wang, and escort the criminals to the prisoner car!" Gonggong Chen squinted Wang Qian's eyes meaningfully, and he didn't bother to care, so he turned around and ordered.

…………

After escorting Yang Zhi and his others to the prisoner car, Wang Qian and Lin Yongquan said goodbye to Wang Mao in front of the county office.

"Brother Wang, take care, after returning to Beijing, I will go to see you, and the virtuous nephew will be handed over to me." Lin Yongquan arched his hands and said heavily.

"Hahaha, Brother Lin, it's okay, by now, I can't wait to see what the legendary edict is like." Wang Mao said with a smile, his face was light.

"Dad, I won't say anything else, take care!" Wang Qian said, but his eyes were already flickering.

"Come over in a few days, I'll tell you everything I need to say, for my father, I won't talk nonsense now, good boy, follow your Uncle Lin and do a good job!" Wang Mao raised his hands, patted Wang Qian on the shoulder and said, "You must remember what I said, within this year, you must not go to prison to see me!" ”

At this time, the father-in-law Chen walked over and said expressionlessly: "Lord Lin, this goodbye should be over, right?" Come on, put chains on Lord Wang. ”

"Grandpa Chen, you don't need these shackles, right?" Lin Yongquan frowned and stopped.

"What, Lord Lin, although this Wang Mao is not a repeat offender, he is also a person appointed by the emperor to make a mistake, right? We haven't heard of this person who is going to prison and is not shackled. Gonggong Chen twisted his fingers and said impatiently.

Lin Yongquan was about to refute, but before the words could be spoken, Wang Mao groaned.

"Okay, Brother Lin, don't say it, I'll just put it on." Wang Mao said that he had people add shackles and anklets to himself.

"Okay, Yu Baihu, you can go."

After everyone got into the car, Gonggong Chen rolled up his robe, regardless of Lin Yongquan and Wang Qian behind him, and said straight to the officer who led the team.

…………

The convoy slowly drove away, and Wang Qian and Lin Yongquan were still standing still.

"I know what you're thinking?" Lin Yongquan looked into the distance and said slowly: "This Gonggong Chen's name is Chen Fan, and he is the eunuch of the celebrant eunuch, and he has great power in the palace. When it comes to handling official affairs, don't talk about your father, even people like me, he won't take it too seriously. ”

Hearing this, Wang Qian was stunned, recalled the memory in his mind, and then secretly smiled bitterly, it turned out to be the master of ceremonies, no wonder he was so big.

The celebrant is one of the twelve eunuchs of the inner court set up in the Ming Dynasty, and is originally to supervise all etiquette, criminal names, management errands, and various servants in the imperial city. In the middle and late Ming Dynasty, the emperor was sluggish and tired of government, and the emperor often asked the celebrant to approve the red on behalf of the emperor, so that the celebrant took advantage of this opportunity to constantly expand his power and influence the decision-making of the imperial court. At this time, the celebrant was equivalent to the cabinet among the eunuchs, and had the right to draft votes and seals, but the celebrant was always subject to the imperial power.

Seeing that Wang Qian was silent, Lin Yongquan said again: "If you want to be respected, if you want others to be afraid of you, you must make yourself strong." Now that you are no longer the eldest prince in that county, you have to learn to be self-reliant. Fortunately, your starting point is much higher than others, and this entry is a seven-rank official. ”

"But officialdom is like a battlefield, and the same is true among military attachΓ©s, your high starting point does not mean that you can go far in the future, think about it, Lord Zongqi."

Lin Yongquan said and walked away with his hands in the distance.

Wang Qian was still pondering, what Lin Yongquan said was not wrong, although this seventeen-year-old body contained a twenty-six-year-old soul, it was like a blank sheet of paper in this era, it was useless to be confused, and everything could only be created by himself. If you enter the official career, it will definitely be more dangerous, and if you are not careful, it may become someone else's meal.

As soon as he unloaded the sadness of parting, thinking of this, Wang Qian clenched his fists, and his eyes shone brightly: "I died once, and I appeared here again, it is not in line with common sense, I have the ability to be a prophet, and I still don't believe it, can't I break out of the world in this Ming Dynasty?" ”

The summer breeze blew, and after suddenly becoming brighter, Wang Qian straightened his fluttering black hair, straightened his sleeves, turned around and left with a chic humming song. There is quite a charm of "brushing off the clothes and hiding the merit and fame".
