Finally arrived in Nanjing.

Seeing the walls and gates of the majestic Nanjing City from afar, Su Tiancheng had a lot of emotion.

It's not easy, it's been almost two years, I participated in the township examination, the meeting examination and the palace examination, and walked up step by step, and finally stepped into the middle of the official eunuch team and began to grasp power.

Nanjing used to be the capital of the Ming Dynasty, and now it is the capital of the Ming Dynasty, and the degree of prosperity even exceeds that of the capital.

There is a lookout pavilion outside the city, and it used to be a place for people to worship in the meeting and temple examinations, and to worship the Bodhisattva and ask the Bodhisattva to bless them, so that they can go to high school.

Now it has become a place of worship for new officials, begging for a smooth career.

Su Tianwei didn't want to do this, what's the use of praying, the focus is still on how good his ability is, but Xiong Zijian and Wang Dazhi have already arranged it in front, set up an incense table, and put sacrifices such as fish and duck meat.

Around the Wangfeng Pavilion, signs of prayer can still be seen, and in the incense burner, there is almost burning incense, and of course the tribute is impossible to see, and it has long been taken away.

Su Tiancheng slowly walked towards the Wangfeng Pavilion.

The process of worship is not complicated, light the incense, and bow in the direction of the northern capital.

Of course, there were also pious officials who had to bathe in vegetarian food and stay in inns outside the city for two or three days.

There was an exclamation behind him, and Su Tiancheng turned his head and found that Wang Furong had actually followed.

It is said that Wang Furong's identity is a maid, and she can't worship Su Tiancheng in everything, unless she is Su Tiancheng's original wife, or a concubine.

The exclamations were made by a part of the people in the middle of the nursing home, uncontrolled.

Wang Furong's eyes were full of expectation, she had already regarded the young master as her man, and she would follow the young master for the rest of her life.

The nurse let out an exclamation, and she realized that she had been reckless.

Su Tiancheng smiled at Wang Furong and naturally took Wang Furong's hand.

Wang Furong's body trembled, and she didn't expect Su Tiancheng to squeeze it tighter.

Wang Dazhi saw all this, and in the team, Wang Dazhi's mother also saw all this.

Entering the Wangfeng Pavilion, Su Tiancheng and Wang Furong were holding incense in their hands, Wang Dazhi held the fire fold, trembling and helping the two to light the incense, and quickly withdrew from the Wangfeng Pavilion.

Su Tiancheng and Wang Furong held incense and knelt down facing the north.

Seeing Wang Furong kneeling beside him, Su Tiancheng suddenly felt that this was not a ceremony held by the young couple.

The worship ceremony had just ended, and not far away, several people on horses galloped over.

After a few dismounts, he walked in front of Su Tiancheng and quickly bowed down.

"Uncle, get up, General Sun, General Liu, General Luo, Su Jun, Ma Huabiao, you all get up."

Su Pingyang was very excited, although it was very hard along the way, after arriving at the mansion that was well purchased, he was busy arranging everything, and at the same time did not forget, he went to the city gate every day to observe and see if the young master had arrived.

The nursing home that arrived in advance was still busy, Su Jun bought two hundred acres of land, which was specially used to build a house, which was arranged by Su Tiancheng, in fact, there is a taste of building a military camp, after all, there are more than 3,000 nursing homes, and it is impossible to accommodate it in the mansion.

"Young master, everything is arranged."

Su Tiancheng nodded, he couldn't return to the mansion for the time being.

Today is the sixth day of the fifth month, and there are still four days before he will go to Jiangning County to take office, and the time stipulated by the Ministry of Officials cannot be advanced or late, and the regulations are very dead.

The reason why he couldn't go back to the mansion was because Su Tiancheng was very careful.

The Ming Dynasty's officials were too powerful, and the little things were impeachment, and when he came to Jiangning County to take office, of course, he had to focus on major events, and it was best to wait in the official post.

Of course, you can do a lot of things while you wait, and even go to the brothel, which is the brothel, and no one will say anything, because you have already put on a posture, and you can't sit stupidly in your room every day.

Nanjing because it is accompanied by the capital, there are also six departments and the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and the setting of the capital is the same, but this six, there is not much power, it belongs to the consolation arrangement, some officials in the capital, old, or excluded, they are arranged here, there are grades, there are good fortunes, when they have nothing to do, they complain, the actual power of some officials of the six departments is not as good as the Gyeonggi Zhixian around Nanjing, of course, having said that, the Zhixian still does not dare to offend the Shangshu Shilang in the six departments of Nanjing, It's all because people's grades are there, and they are also mixed into that position step by step.

There are still some strange things in this, on the surface, the six ministries can directly manage the officials below, but the appointment of officials and the power of the cabinet in the capital.

Nanjing's six Shangshu, the real power is the military department Shangshu, the military department Shangshu concurrently serves as the governor of Zhejiang, counselor military affairs, is the real sense of the Nanzhili leader. Assisting the military department of Shangshu, there are eunuchs guarding the town and guarding the lords, and these three people have become the highest authority in Nanzhili.

Next is the governor of Yingtian, the institutional setting of Nanzhili, although it is exactly the same as that of the capital, but at best it is the status of a municipality directly under the central government, and the governor of Yingtian is the highest person in charge of the locality, managing all the military, government and civil affairs.

Ying Tian Governor below, Ying Tianfu Fu Yin is a special existence, Fu Yin is a member of the three products, responsible for the first of Nanjing City

Cut civil administration, the remaining fifteen prefectures, the prefects are all four products, and the two Zhili prefectures are from the five products.

In the city of Nanjing, there are two counties directly under the central government, namely Shangyuan County and Jiangning County, the two counties of the county, are Zhengliupin, and hundreds of years later the municipal district is about the same, but today's Jiangning County, the area is much larger, including part of Nanjing City, as well as some surrounding towns.

Nanjing, as the accompanying capital, the situation is somewhat different from other places, there are no three departments, nominally six departments are in charge, governing fifteen prefectures, two prefectures, of course, the real responsibility for all the work and the promotion of officials, or the six departments in the capital.

This is also a strange place in the Ming Dynasty.

Su Tiancheng is the magistrate of Jiangning County, and his work is directly responsible for the Tianfu Ya, that is to say, the direct superior is Ying Tianfu Yin, a senior official of the imperial court of Zheng Sanpin.

Therefore, Su Tiancheng's real superiors, in addition to Ying Tianfu Yin, and Ying Tian's governor, based on the special location of Jiangning County, the Nanjing Military Department Shangshu will inquire about the situation from time to time.

There is no way to do this, the place is special, and he has more superiors, which is different from those ordinary provincial capitals and counties, and it is also where he must adapt.

The most important figures in Nanzhili, there are the military department secretary, the town guard eunuch, the Ying Tian governor and the Ying Tianfu Yin, the biggest influence on Su Tiancheng is the military department secretary, the military department secretary is also the governor of Zhejiang, counselor military affairs, on the surface it is to manage the military, in fact, the same is in charge of civil affairs, if you get the support of the military department, all the work is easy to do.

There is also a special place in Nanjing.

There is a Beijing camp here, called Nanjing Jingying.

Nanjing Jingying has 35 guards, of which 17 are set up in 15 prefectures and two Zhili prefectures in Nanzhili, and the remaining 18 are in Tokyo and Xijing in the suburbs of Nanjing.

The people who manage these armies are the military department and the eunuchs who guard the town.

The army of the Ming Dynasty, the generals and soldiers were separated, the military department was still in the book and the eunuchs guarding the town, and if they wanted to mobilize these troops, they also needed a holy decree, but because of the existence of the Nanjing Jingying, Nanzhili was still calm in the past few years.

This calm, more than two years later, was shattered.

Although it has the title of Nanjing Jingying, it is a pity that this once brave army has rotted from the roots, and there is not much combat effectiveness, and the army known as 200,000 has been left behind because of mutiny and desertion, and less than one-third of the sergeants are left behind, and it often happens when military salaries are in arrears.

When it comes to Jiangning County, there is also a special place, the city of Nanjing, which is divided into an inner city and an outer city.

The inner city includes two counties, namely Shangyuan County and Jiangning County, as for the outer city, the scope is very wide, and there are fourteen counties under the jurisdiction of Yingtianfu, all of which are considered outer cities.

Yingtianfu Mansion is located in Shangyuan County, including the Six Ministries, the Imperial Palace, the Imperial City, etc., all in Shangyuan County, so there is a certain difference in the inner city, and the location of Shangyuan County is more important than Jiangning County.

But the location of Gangnyeong County is far more important than that of other Gyeonggi counties.

The jurisdiction of Jiangning County is much larger than that of Shangyuan County, and the area is the largest in the counties under the jurisdiction of Yingtianfu, including part of Nanjing City, as well as many parts of the suburbs, Tokyo Daying and Xijing Daying are within the jurisdiction of Jiangning County.

To such a place, serving as the magistrate, it is not Su Tiancheng's willingness, it can be said that the space for display is much smaller, if it is far away from the emperor of the mountain, let yourself play, then it will be refreshing.

It's a pity that Su Tiancheng doesn't know much about history, there are many vassal kings in the Ming Dynasty, almost every province has them, and the only thing that is not is the North Zhili and the South Zhili, these vassal kings, a large number of annexed land, which makes the local officials very annoyed, and there is no way, Jiangning County will not encounter such a situation.

As for the problem of many constraints, he doesn't have to worry too much, this problem can be solved soon, of course, that's a later story.

Su Pingyang, Xiong Zijian, Sun Yuankun, Liu Shiliang, Luo Chang, Ma Huabiao and others, with a large army, went directly to the direction of the mansion, Su Ertong, Su Jun, Wang Dazhi, and the ten most capable nursing homes followed Su Tiancheng to live in the inn.

Wang Furong originally wanted to follow Su Tiancheng's side, but her mother came forward and said that the young master was going to take office, and everything had to wait until after taking office.

Of course, there is another person by Su Tiancheng's side, and that is Liu Zhongji.

Liu Joong Ki's identity is very special, he can be regarded as Su Tiancheng's classmate, friend and subordinate.
