It was also the New Year, but the Governor's Mansion of Yizhou seemed a little deserted. This is not because there are few people in the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, in fact, if everyone is full according to the establishment, the subordinate officials of the entire Metropolitan Governor's Mansion are added together, and there are twenty-one people. Nowadays, there is only one Sima and one member of the military, and as for the officials and errands below, they are far more than twice as much as the entire Chengdu County Party. But in this New Year's season, Fan Chengming is not as close to the people as Du Shiyi, which also makes people up and down complain behind their backs, and naturally there is no festive atmosphere.

Fan Chengming came to Chengdu and brought his young son Fan Che, who had not yet taken the exam. He has three sons under his knees, this son is born by his old wife in his later years, and has always been regarded as a treasure, although he is quite famous, but because he came to Yizhou to talk about Zhang Shuo's deployment, I don't know how long it will take, he can rest assured that his young son who is eighteen years old is spoiled by a woman at home, so Yu Crisp took people out. At this moment, he was looking at Zhang's letter over and over again in the study, and his face was a little hazy. At this time, Fan Che couldn't hold his breath and bothered him.

"Grandpa, that Du Nineteen distributed rewards in the Chengdu County Party, and I heard that the subordinate officials also held a rich New Year's gift, he is so popular, don't you participate in his book?" Seeing that his father only looked at the letter in his hand and was silent, Fan Che couldn't help but raise his voice, "Grandpa, you have been in office for two months, but the people outside only know Du Nineteen, how many people remember you, the real master of the South Sword Dao?" This Du Nineteen has only come to visit Grandpa once for so long, and even sent someone to give him a New Year's gift during the New Year, and he didn't even show his face at other times, he obviously didn't take you seriously......"

"Enough"

Fan Chengming was distraught and dropped the letter in his hand and stopped his son in one gulp. Seeing that he sat down unconvinced, he said hatefully: "Just for such a small matter, I went to tell the magistrate of Yi Governor Shi to sue the next county order, do you think your grandfather is so idle?" Du 19 districts of Chengdu is what is to be afraid of, and now it has become the climate of Yuwenrong who is calling for wind and rain in the middle of the court, and that is a big trouble

This time, the sage set the next year to seal Mount Tai, and recommended his Yuan Xiangguo to oppose it with all his might, so he had a dislike with Zhang Xiangguo, but he was very active, not only did not refute it, but also took over the matter of a due degree, what do the people in the DPRK call him now? Yuwen Hubu said that he was not about to be promoted to Tobu Shilang? This is a step up from the Imperial History, and at this pace, it is only a matter of time before he becomes the head of the political hall."

After sitting down in a daze, Fan Che couldn't help but mutter, "Isn't that Du Nineteen and Yu Wenrong have a good relationship?" Even for Zhang Xiangguo, Grandpa couldn't watch him continue to call for wind and rain. In just a few months, just relying on a case, he has already laid a foundation in Chengdu. ”

As soon as he said this, Fan Chengming had an unspeakable disgust for Li Tianluo. If it weren't for Rhodes' repeated assurances to him that the case between the Li family and the client over land was absolutely reasonable and legal, and that the contradiction between the resident and the client could be brought to the court, and then chased after Yuwenrong, who proposed this policy, how could he easily show up and go to Zhangjiacun to listen as soon as he took office? As a result, the pre-purpose was not achieved, but he saw Du Shiyi in the limelight, making those customers grateful, and at the same time, he donated money to build water conservancy

"You don't have to say more. I brought you to Chengdu, not to ask you to care about the government affairs of Chengdu and even Yizhou, but to ask you to study hard from tomorrow, write a thousand big characters every day, before going to sleep at night, I want to personally test your homework and run out less, Du 19's affairs, I have my own plans"

drove the young son who was very talented and sparse down, and Fan Chengming paced back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back.

Compared with Guanzhong and Heluo, which have fewer land and more people, the entire Jiannan Road is considered a wide township, but Yizhou is different, and Chengdu is also different. Yizhou and even Chengdu are densely populated, and there is no land that can be granted to customers, and according to Yuwenrong's previous order, customers are allowed to re-register their household registration and be exempted from servitude for five years, and violators are far away. Of course, this vigorous number of households includes 800,000 people, but in five years, these people will have to bear heavy rents, and then it will be the peak period of desertion

In other words, Yuwenrong's scenery is only in the past five years at most, but according to Yuwenrong's current upward momentum, who can wait for five years? When he really enters the political hall, if you want to deal with him, it will be too late

Guanzhong Heluo is a heavy place, and there can be no chaos, as for other places, some are too far away, and some are military towns, only in Shuzhong, which is known for its wealth and tranquility, can this contradiction and shady curtain be revealed, so that the final word can be made, but who would have thought that Du Shiyi became a foreign official for the first time, and his methods were quite old

Thinking about it, Fan Chengming raised his voice and shouted: "Someone is coming"

The servant who came in response bowed deeply and said, "What does the envoy command?" ”

"Early in the morning, go to the Luo family and the Wu family to inform you." After hesitating for a moment, Fan Chengming continued, "Ming Rì Zhengdan, when Chengdu Ling comes to visit, I will invite him to climb the Sanhua Building together." ”

Even if Du Shiyi and Yu Wenrong have some personal relationships, they must have some trade-offs, so he might as well use this to test his true intentions

And the Yuwen Rong House in Yongxing Fang in Chang'an City is lively on this Chinese New Year's Eve. In just a few years, Yu Wenrong was promoted from the master of Fuping County to supervise the imperial history, and then from the palace to serve the imperial history, serve the imperial history, and serve the military department member Wailang and the imperial history of the middle of the city, all the way up, such a promotion speed is rare in ancient and modern times. Therefore, at the Chinese New Year's Eve family banquet, in addition to his own sons and nephews, his cousin Weifu Weiji and his family members were also invited. After staggering, he invited his clan brothers Yu Wenwan and Wei Ji to his study.

"After the first lunar month, the matter of sealing Zen will begin. At that time, I will serve as the deputy envoy of Feng Chan, and most of the time, it will be time for the appointment of the Tobe Shilang to come down. ”

Wei Ji is the youngest son of Wei Sili, the younger brother of Wei Sili, the mother of Yu Wenrong, although Wei Sili once wrote an order in the middle of the official residence, and degraded the place and ended up depressed, but the outstanding children of the Wei family are frequent, and he is also famous for his elegant rhetoric in the two capitals, when he was the county commander in the early years of the Kaiyuan Dynasty, when Li Longji compared more than 200 county orders on the spot, he stood out and ranked first, and his official reputation abroad was also excellent. Now he is a member of the treasury department of the official residence, and he is a highly regarded person among the officials. And Yu Wenwan is in his early forties, but he has never advanced, and he has always been very close to Yu Wenrong. Hearing Yu Wenrong's words at this moment, the eyes of the two lit up at the same time.

"No wonder everyone calls cousin Yuwen Tobu, it seems that this title will soon be worthy of its name

"Congratulations to the clan brother for finally being able to take charge of the money"

Although the head of the household is the real master of the household, Yu Wenrong had been fighting wits and courage with Yang Yao, the head of the household department, not only drove the head of the household who was determined to take care of his own policies and policies to serve as the assassin of Huazhou, but also successfully silenced the rest of the household department.

Hearing the title of this Yuwen household, Yuwen Rong hahadaxiao, after laughing, he said: "I have only entered the government at the age of thirty, and it has been many years before I have reached the point where I am now, compared to those who can only talk about empty words, but I have been suppressed by them for many years. If it weren't for the wisdom of a saint, how could I have my cousin Ji today, and now my cousin Heng's official residence in Dangshan Ling is in Shandong. The saint Feng Zen Taishan, Shandong states and counties bear the brunt, as long as he can show great talent this time, why worry about not being promoted"

Wei Heng is Wei Ji's second brother, the two brothers are not much different in age, and their relationship is closer than that of their eldest brother Wei Fu. Since Yu Wenrong said it to such a clear point, Wei Ji understood it and agreed repeatedly. At this time, Yu Wenwan pondered his words and said: "By the way, there is now a Fan Chengming in Shuzhong, can the clan brother be prepared for this?" ”

"Everyone knows the heart of Zhang Shuo, how can I not know?" Yu Wenrong stroked his beard confidently, and his face showed a little mockery.

"Fan Chengming, the new official, was impatient to catch Du Jiulang's shortcomings, but the result was a great success, and he didn't know where to throw this face to say that Du Jiulang was really good, this case was handled happily, and afterwards he raised funds to revitalize water conservancy, which won the hearts of customers and did not harm the interests of residents, which was the best of both worlds. I had to laugh at the son of the Langya Wang family who thought he was from a famous family, and he resigned and wanted to return to the Beijing Ministry of Officials to collect the selection? If he dares to pick a son, he will go back and wait for more than ten or twenty years."

With Yu Wenrong's current position, such a sentence undoubtedly determines the next tragic career of the former Chengdu Lieutenant Wang Ming. It's none of his business, even if Wang Ming comes from a famous family, he was only a small county lieutenant before, so Wei Ji and Yu Wenwan didn't pay attention to it at all. Wei Ji is more concerned about another matter.

"That Wei Shishilang went out to join the military as the governor of Yizhou, can my cousin know about this matter?"

Although it is not from the same branch, and the relationship between the various branches of Jingzhao Webster is not really as close, but Wei Li has been a Jinshi and the first, which is also a rare talent of Wei Shi in the past few years, so he heard that Wei Li is not doing a good haode orthography, but he wants to go out, Wei Ji is extremely surprised. Don't look at the orthography, but from the nine products, and the Yizhou Metropolitan Governor's Mansion has a strong seven products, but it is easy to go out, but it is difficult to come back

"Did Wei Zheng ask you to ask?"

Yu Wenrong knew that Wei Zheng's term of office had expired at the end of last year, and he had already become the assassin of Puzhou, and his brother Wei Kang was also cheated by Zhang Jiazhen before stepping down. Therefore, Wei Ji's silence was considered a tacit acquiescence, and he laughed hesitantly.

"Du 19 wrote a letter to Wei 14, so Wei 14 is inseparable from Du 19. Don't think that the official position in Yizhou is so easy to get, I have also contributed to this matter. Zhang said that he sent Fan Chengming instead of Pei Huang to Yizhou, except that Pei Huang could still keep an eye on Dianyuan Xiangguo in the center, just because Pei Huang and Du Shijiu had an old relationship, for fear that he would not be able to show his hands and feet at that time. Instead of going to Liangjing to qualify step by step, Wei Shixi might as well go to Shuzhong, and maybe when he comes back, he will be able to be a regular official of the Sixth Division."
