Two days after Zhu Zheng arrived in the capital, Huanglong also arrived. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info is the same as after getting the "point" of Wang Zhen, the servant of the ministry, he came directly to Wang Fulin.

As the former superintendent of the Imperial Procuratorate, although he had not been a colleague with Wang Fulin in the Metropolitan Procuratorate, Huang Long still heard Wang Fulin smile and groan as soon as they met. is different from Zhu Zheng, even if he has not been supervising the imperial history for two years, he offended people and was kicked aside, at least he has a sub-patrol position, so he will not completely stand aside. And he only moved to the left for more than a year, and he was open-minded, but he didn't have a lot of complaints, and now he was finally transferred back to the capital, and he actually tactfully persuaded Wang Fulin to remind Zhang Juzheng a few more words.

"In the past two years, the magistrates have complained about many of the measures taken by Shousuke, especially the fact that taxes are used as a hard standard to measure the performance of officials and included in the examination booklet."

"After all, it's because the rich can't collect taxes on their acres, and the poor people can't pay taxes at every turn, right? And most of the three-year county orders can't compete with the rich gentry of the township eunuchs. ”

Wang Fulin replied thoughtfully, and seeing Huang Long nodding in agreement, he smiled and said, "I can almost see this from what happened to my father-in-law back then. It's just that Brother Zhu have you thought about it, obviously the magistrate is in front of the powerful eunuchs and rich gentry, and in front of the deep-rooted three-class six-room officials, in fact, there is not much deterrence. Why is it that in those novels, there are relatively few things like the local snakes such as the eunuchs and rich gentry bullying local officials and driving them away? ”

Huang Long was stunned. Today's readers, like the students of later generations, are required to read textbooks and tutorial materials such as various annotations during the study period, but in addition, all kinds of miscellaneous small talk books and dramas are also quite extensive, otherwise when you go out to participate in the Wenhui Poetry Club, when others ask you what you don't know, the nerd's hat will not be taken off. What's more, it has been ten years since Huang Long took the Jinshi examination, and the eight shares of the art have basically been lost, but these messy miscellaneous books have not been missed.

He desperately recalled these things he had seen before, and finally found that it was indeed the officials who bullied the head snakes a lot, but the head snakes who bullied the officials in charge of their parents were very few, and suddenly looked at Wang Fulin with some doubts.

"People who write this kind of novel and legend have to be idle and capricious, except for the imperial history like me, who has nothing to write romance novels for entertainment, most of the people who are officials do not have that idle time, of course, except for some people who write some miscellaneous notes while being an official, except for fanatics who love opera. Therefore, even if these authors may have been officials in the past, when they write these things, most of them are just eunuchs, rich gentry, and local celebrities. Since you are in such a class, do you think they are happy to reflect the local parents and officials bullying the village eunuchs and gentry, or are they happy to reflect the bullies to oppress the parents and officials? This is a matter of position, which cannot be changed. ”

Speaking of this, Wang Fulin shrugged his shoulders and said: "Therefore, Lord Shoufu is now just holding the two Jingke Dao and mastering the mouthpiece in the imperial court, and those public opinions in this world, even if Dongchang and Jinyiwei are all dispatched, it is impossible to completely control them." I also know the officialdom complaints you heard, and I also told Shousuke-sama about them, but how could a person like him who has a monopoly on power be too stubborn to listen. What's more, his reaction at that time was, how could these magistrates not know that they strictly inspected the acres of land in strict accordance with the number of preferential exemptions and servitudes, so that they would not ask large families to evade taxes! ”

"But how many people have the courage to do such a thing?" Huang Long frowned as he spoke, and suddenly looked at Wang Fulin with his eyes, only to see Wang Fulin shaking his head into a rattle, he sighed, "You are so clever and scheming, and people who are well versed in the name of punishment and Qian Gu are not sure, how can you expect those people who study hard in the cold window and eventually become jinshi, and then directly go to become magistrates?" ”

"Brother Huang, don't put a high hat on me, if you really want to do this, then you have to use iron-faced and selfless gentlemen, such as Hai Rui Haigangfeng, such as ......" For example, Wang Yongji, who was just dismissed by Zhang Juzheng, can Wang Fulin say it? And this kind of clear stream officer is not afraid of offending people, but spraying people is not afraid of offending people, how much heart does he have to recommend this kind of person!

The gossip that the two of them had no choice but to talk about came to an end, and Wang Fulin and Huang Long talked about the matter of the Guangdong Division of the Ministry of Households.

For Huang Long, who was directly airborne, it was certainly not so easy to get started suddenly, but in the same year, Wang Fulin's old father-in-law, Ye Junyao, had just released Jiangxi from Fujian Shilang a year ago. In addition, there is also the Master Gui who helped Ye Junyao back then and was proficient in Qian Valley, Wang Fulin rehired people when he learned from Wang Zhan that Huang Long was promoted. In addition, Wang Fulin also provided Huanglong with the most reliable backer.

That is Zhang Xueyan, the head of the household.

"I sent a post to Zhang Butang yesterday."

Huang Long glared at Wang Fulin like a tale of the Arabian Nights, and only after a long time did he breathe a sigh of relief: "I heard about it when I went to Beijing, and the case of killing and imposting merit in Liaodong was your head and tail from beginning to end, and you even pushed back the opinion of Lord Shoufu." Zhang Butang has been promoted all the way from the governor of Liaodong, you swept him such a big face, it would be good if he didn't give me small shoes to wear when I entered the household department, you still want him to take care of me? ”

"What face did I sweep Zhang Butang? Tao Chengyu? Oh, that is the subordinate of Li Dashuai, the general soldier of Liaodong, and he should have dismissed the official and investigated, this kind of thing happened, and now everyone in Liaodong civil and military hates him to death. As for Yuan Bi, and Sun Yuanrong, that's because they themselves are too greedy, so they should naturally be punished, why don't you see that Zhang Chongzheng and Hong Jiyuan are both proposed to be governors, and the little one is not even a political secretary, but belongs to Liaodong, which is under the management of Shandong, and there are two governors among those Taoist supervisors, what does this mean? ”

"You're just beating a stick and giving a sweet date." Huang Long was completely speechless, but he hadn't finished his sentence yet. This is a stick to a high-ranking official at the level of Zhang Xueyan, the head of the household department, to give a sweet date, and he actually expects people to give face because of this, is Wang Fulin's face so big?

However, when Huang Long, who had slipped over to visit Zhang Xueyan by Wang Fulin, on the following day of Humuri, actually entered the gate of Zhang's house, he found that Wang Fulin was really big in Zhang's mansion. Zhang Xueyan was patient and meticulous with his new Guangdong Shilang, and even kept him for a quarter of an hour. But when he retired and was about to leave, Wang Fulin, who came with him, was retained. He was muttering in his heart and unconsciously slowed down, but as soon as he arrived at the gate, he heard Wang Fulin's voice behind him.

"I knew that you didn't go so fast, I set up a table in the same pavilion in Fengsheng Hutong in the evening, please bring you and Brother Zhu, and Cheng Naixuan will also bring a friend together, which can be regarded as my belated pick-up. But you can't eat this meal for nothing, and in a few days it happens to be my friend's daughter-in-law, and you'll all have to find time to help. ”

The subordinates of the Zhang Mansion saw that Wang Fulin quickly caught up with Huang Long, and the two people who were more than ten years apart in age just hooked their shoulders and carried out of the gate, and they couldn't help but look at each other for a while. Of course, they also thought of the question that Huang Long thought of before, but they never expected that their master Zhang Xueyan would really be so indulgent to Wang Fulin, so they were not afraid that this kid would turn around and kick his nose in the face more and more?

How did they know that Zhang Xueyan, the master of his own family in the study, was sighing endlessly. Because he just wanted to test it, Wang Fulin suddenly took the lead in making such a ruthless attack on Liaodong Wenwu, what was the reason, but Wang Fulin actually gave him such a refreshing answer - the king's fate is hard to disobey! In just four words, his mood has undergone a rollercoaster jumping up and down, if it weren't for Wang Fulin adding a sentence, Yuan Fu would have already known, I'm afraid he would either make a rash judgment at this time, or go directly to Zhang Juzheng to tell the truth!

When did you Zhang Juzheng's person become the emperor's person?

However, after Zhang Xueyan tasted it, he decided to continue to offer Wang Fulin high in the future without knowing what to do, so as not to make a moth to this guy who has always played cards according to common sense.

Fengsheng Hutong was originally the Fengcheng Marquis Mansion, but as Hongwu and Yongle's descendants gradually reduced to only hereditary iron coupons, Yulu Zhuangtian, often in Nanjing garrison, the three battalions of the Beijing Division sit on the battalion officer These positions occupy a name, rarely can be the real general soldier, most people are completely dependent on the shadow of the saint and the past, rather than military merits to live, the so-called nobles are only left with a name, most of the time purely just ornamental. The same pavilion where Wang Fulin set the table actually opened a restaurant next to the Fengcheng Hou Mansion, which was absolutely unimaginable if it had been placed in the past.

But the same pavilion of this land was sold with a shop, and it was exchanged for a full 30,000 taels of silver to the Fengcheng Hou Mansion that year, plus this place is said to have the background of the palace, so even if this restaurant has been thriving in business in recent years, and there are many customers every day, the Fengcheng Hou Mansion does not dare to take back the industry, but has to endure the impact of the restaurant's noise at all times. You said to go and cry to the emperor? What are you kidding, the fathers-in-law can face the saint all the time, but even the royal relatives like Wu Qingbo can't enter the palace anytime and anywhere, let alone the Marquis of Fengcheng, who has long been out of breath?

At this time, the box that Wang Fulin had set in advance was on the second floor, where you could see part of the front yard of the Fengcheng Hou Mansion and the panoramic view of Fengsheng Hutong. Although he only ordered to pick the best when he was set, and didn't care about anything else, when he sat down in the window seat, he glanced out the window, invited Huang Long to sit down, and asked the guy who poured the tea with a smile: "Does your host have an enmity with the Fengcheng Marquis Mansion?" Even if you can't see the ladies in the inner courtyard of the house, but the front yard of the dignified marquis's mansion is seen like this, isn't it a joke? ”

The guy only knew that the person who booked the box was generous, but he didn't know that it was the young Wang Fulin in front of him, and when he asked this, he smiled and said: "Guest officer, you are asking, if the Fengcheng Hou Mansion doesn't want us to have a box on the second floor of the same pavilion where you can see his front yard, you can increase the wall." But he didn't do that, so how can we control their thoughts here? As you said, the ladies in the inner courtyard who have never looked at other people's houses can't break the law, right? Besides, this Fengcheng Hou Mansion is now in disrepair, there is really nothing to see, the owner plans to sell the land, I heard that I will open a drama garden here when I turn back. ”

While the two were talking, Huang Long couldn't help but look out the window thoughtfully, and at this moment, the door of the box opened, but someone else came in. I saw Cheng Naixuan and Li Yaoqing enter the box one after the other, and Cheng Naixuan shouted directly: "Shuangmu, they all say that this same pavilion can cook dishes from Tiannan and Haibei, I originally wanted to try it, but you are a good place this time." ”

Li Yaoqing has never been sloppy about eating, and said with a smile at this time: "Shiqing, no wonder you asked me to set the banquet here as a wedding banquet, and it was all full outside, it seems that it is really famous in the capital." ”

Only then did the guy know that among the guests who came here today, the one who was the youngest was Wang Fulin, and when he heard that Wang Fulin actually recommended someone to set up his own wedding banquet, he couldn't help but smack his tongue secretly. You must know that they go out to make wedding banquet noodles for people, and the price is not cheap, not to mention that the poor Beijing officials can't afford it, and the empty shelves like the Fengcheng Marquis Mansion next door can't afford it, and even many officials who are quite solid are reluctant to follow the rules. Seeing Wang Fulin greeting and talking to the visitors, he had already finished his tea with his hands and feet, and was about to quietly withdraw, but when he walked to the door, he almost collided with two people.

"How can you say that it is such a coincidence, our family actually ran into this stinky poor sour at the gate!"

Working in the same pavilion and this kind of place, of course the guy has seen eunuchs, and he is also very familiar with this kind of sharp voice, and when he saw that among the two newcomers, the older one pulled the sleeve of the slightly younger one, calling himself our family, and calling others stinky and sour, he realized that this was actually the father-in-law in the palace, but the next moment, the words blurted out by the young man with an obviously annoyed face, which made him dumbfounded.

"Dead eunuch, what does it look like to pull and pull in public, let go!"

The guy only thought that the eunuch would be annoyed and angry, but he didn't expect the middle-aged eunuch who was not so old to pluck his ears, and then let go of his hand and laughed: "I really don't know how many years I haven't heard this name, and it is quite pleasant to hear." Why are you staring at our family, when you were in Hangzhou Beixinguan, you didn't quarrel with me enough? ”

"Humph!" Zhu Yan slapped the wrinkled sleeve angrily, and said stupidly, "If it weren't for Brother Wang Xian who was the boss today and invited you too, who would want to provoke you?" ”

"It's all old people, I won't favor one over the other and leave you out of the circle. It's not easy to know you, come on, come on, everyone sit down, and I'll first toast you, the new celebrant and the celebrant. ”

At this moment, the stunned fellow finally came to his senses, and quickly flashed out of the door, and carefully closed the door.

What kind of people are the other people in this room who can invite a celebrant to accompany the court? There are also people who call the eunuch dead, but the celebrant is not angry, this is not deliberately pretending to cheat and cheat, right? No, I have to go and talk to the owner, my own backstage is not trivial, and the owner should recognize such a person! (To be continued.) )
