Chapter 439: What is the East Factory going to do?
The selection of the first assistant of the cabinet is a little far away from Meng Yan, and the struggle of the civilian clique has little to do with Jinyiwei.
However, Jinyiwei's surveillance of officials in the DPRK and China, especially those above the third grade, has never been relaxed.
This is the purpose of the establishment of Jinyiwei.
This is also one of the reasons why the Chinese official group of the DPRK hated Jinyiwei, who wants their privacy to be recorded, and even possibly passed on to future generations?
Meng Yan is still too busy with his own affairs, how can he have the leisure to take care of other people's affairs, just so these people should not put their eyes on themselves.
"Brother Yang, it's better to choose a day than to hit the day, when I'm done with this, I'll go back to the house with you to visit the boss?"
"It's fine." Yang Dan thought about it and agreed.
"Come on, invite Mr. Cai over!"
"Your Excellency, you called me?"
"After a while, let's go down in advance, you go with me to Yang Mansion, you go back to Songhe Tower first, find Mrs. Yu, and get some pastries."
"Brother Meng, come to my house, what else do you bring?"
"Some pastries, the old man is old, his teeth are not very good, the pastries are soft, very suitable for him to eat, just in moderation."
Meng Yan also knew that Yang Pu would categorically not accept too expensive gifts, so there would be no problem with eating.
Su Xinzhai's pastries, which are famous in Beijing, have many people who love to eat, and Mr. Yang is also one of them.
Otherwise, Bai Suxin, the master of Su Xin Zhai, was exposed to adultery and murder, so how could it cause a sensation in the entire capital?
This is also somewhat of a celebrity effect.
"Thank you very much, since Su Xinzhai closed. My father never had the chance to eat Su Xinzhai's pastries again, and he was talking about it a few days ago. ā
"Yes, the old man will eat it in the future, and Su Xinzhai is ready to reopen!" Meng Yan said with a smile.
"yes, that's a happy thing."
Cai Jin left in a hurry, Meng Yan buried himself in writing and dealing with a bunch of official affairs on this desk, fortunately, he only needed to sign and approve these, and there were some trivial things. He directly pushed it to the people below to deal with it.
There are fewer and fewer official documents on the desk. Cai Jin also returned from the Pine Crane Tower, carrying a carved lacquered mahogany box in his hand.
"My lord, you didn't say anything in advance, but fortunately Miss Bai is here. Otherwise, I really can't catch up. Cai Jin said.
"Did Bai Suxin do it himself?" Yang Dan asked in surprise.
"Yes. Young Master Yang. ā
"Great. Dad must be very happy when he sees it. Yang Dan said happily.
"Let's go, it's not too early. Shall we go early and come back early? Meng Yan stood up with a smile.
Yang House.
"Yang Hong, go to the backyard and report it, and say that Lord Meng Yan and Meng ask to see the master."
"Hey, the old slave is going!" The housekeeper Yang Hong agreed, dropped the work in his hand, and ran towards the backyard.
"Lord Meng, please!"
"Brother Yang is too polite, please!"
"Childe, the lord invites Lord Meng to the inner hall to talk!" Yang Hong quickly ran back and bowed to Yang Dan.
"Got it, let's go!"
The backyard, the inner hall, under normal circumstances, Yang Pu will only choose here when he returns to see his close friends, and when he returns to see ordinary guests, he will be in the front hall, and the front hall is much larger than here.
This meeting in the inner hall is a bit of a personal nature.
This shows that Yang Pu does not treat him, a Jinyi Wei Qianhu, as an outsider, which makes Meng Yan feel very surprised and a little flattered.
"The younger generation will learn from Meng Yan at the end of the pavilion!"
"Oh, Master Meng, get up, get up, the old man can't stand it!" Yang Pu stood up and walked over to help Meng Yan up.
"The elder of the pavilion is highly respected and is the pillar of the imperial court, how dare the younger generation be disrespectful?"
"It's heavy, it's heavy, hurry, please take a seat, Yang Hong, serve tea!" Yang Pu greeted.
"This is a little bit of caution from the juniors, and please accept it!" Meng Yan beckoned, and Cai Jin handed over the food box in his hand.
"What is this?"
"It's a pastry made by the Chen family, and I brought some to the old man to taste, which is a little bit of the younger generation's thoughts." Meng Yan Road.
"Well, okay, as long as it's not gold and silver treasures, silk and satin, the old man will accept it!" Yang Pu didn't have any excuses, and directly ordered someone to take it.
"Dad, this is your favorite vegetarian pastry." Yang Dan stepped forward and said.
"Oh, Su Xinzhai, isn't it Lord Meng......" Yang Pu was taken aback, this is a very trivial matter.
"Dad, you misunderstood, Miss Bai and Mrs. Meng are good sisters, and Miss Bai happened to be here today, so we made these pastries together."
"Old man Meng Lang, hehe." Yang Pu smiled, he understood wrong.
"This is all freshly made, it's the best, why don't you try it, boss?" Meng Yan built yƬ road.
"Well, well, the old man happens to be a little hungry."
"Dad, would you like to have a taste?" Yang Dan opened the food box, took out one of the pastries, and personally delivered it to Yang Pu's mouth.
"The old man will come by himself." As soon as Yang Pu smelled that fragrance, he knew that what Meng Yan said was true, this familiar smell had not been smelled for several years.
"Well, it's this taste, sweet, wet, full of fragrance, okay, Master Meng has a heart, the old man finally ate the authentic Bai family pastry." Yang Pu praised.
"The old man likes it, and you can eat it at any time in the future."
"How can this work, why does the old man always eat your food?" Yang Pu hurriedly shook his hand and said.
"Dad, that's ......"
"Then this is a good thing, it seems that Mrs. Meng, Mrs. Ru, is really good at business?" After listening to Yang Dan's explanation, Yang Pu couldn't help laughing.
"Let the old man laugh."
"So, this signboard is for Su Xinzhai to reopen?"
"The old man is right, reopened Suxinzhai and changed its name to Sushanfang, in addition to dealing in pastries, there are other foods." Meng Yan explained.
"Sushanfang, this name is not bad, the old man agreed. This signboard old man wrote it to you, but not today, in three days, you can send someone to pick it up. Yang Pu thought for a moment and said.
"Thank you so much, sir!" Meng Yan bowed to the end, and this matter was finally done.
Coming out of Yang's mansion, Meng Yan and Cai Jin were about to go home, when suddenly a fast horse galloped over, and a Jinyi guard captain wearing a mandarin duck jacket jumped down from the horse.
"Mark the Jinyi Wei Beiya, the right secretary of the house, Sun Kang, see Lord Meng!"
"The right division room of the North Ya. But Shen Yiping's subordinates? ā
"Exactly!"
"What's the matter?"
"Lord Meng. Someone from Dongchang said that the felony who was detaining the right master was involved in a theft case, and he wanted to bring someone to Dongchang for interrogation. ā
"Theft, what does Dongchang want to do?" Meng Yan's eyes flashed. It's clear that he wants to find an excuse to take the magic King Kong away. This magic King Kong arrived at the East Factory. Then it's up to them.
"My lord, this is obviously an excuse to transfer the Demon King Kong from the Imperial Prison and wait for the people to arrive in Dongchang. I'm afraid we won't be able to manage it. Cai Jin said.
"Their wishful thinking was wrong!" Meng Yan snorted, stepped forward, and snatched the reins from Captain Sun, "Captain Sun, this official will borrow your horse for use." ā
"Master Meng, just take it!"
"Thank you!" Meng Yan turned over and got on his horse, "Mr. Cai, you go back first, I'll go to Beiya!" ā
"Yes, sir!" Cai Jin looked at Meng Yan who was riding away, and a trace of worry flashed in his eyes.
North Ya, right division.
"Jiang stall head, Qiu Tiangang is a prisoner placed in my edict by the Inspection Division, if you Dongchang want to take people away, you must get the permission of the Inspection Division, otherwise, you can't take him away." Shen Yiping faced a group of fans from Dongchang.
"Shen Baihu, we just took Qiu Tiangang back for interrogation, why do you bother us?"
"No matter what Qiu Tiangang has done, no one can take him away without the handwritten document of Lord Si Meng." Shen Yiping refused.
"Lord Shen, Qiu Tiangang is related to the theft of the inner court, and the celebrant is supervising the East Factory to bring people back for investigation, aren't you afraid that the above will blame you when the time comes, can't you eat and walk around?" The head of the Dongchang stall named Jiang Han said in a cold voice.
"Jiang stall head, Shen has put his words here, even if the emperor's holy decree comes today, it won't work!"
"Shen Yiping, you are so bold!"
"Who doesn't know that your celebrant often exposes people and does some unsightly things, so you know the holy decree that Shen said in your own hearts!"
"Shen Yiping, you really don't want us to bring people?"
"Jiang Han, don't forget, Dongchang has no right to set up a private court, but all your arrest and interrogation are carried out by our Jinyiwei, so it's not impossible for you to interrogate Qiu Tiangang, we have a torture hall here, no worse than the facilities in your Dongchang!"
The arrest of people in Dongchang must be guarded by the Jinyi guard, and the prisoners who are locked in the prison are usually imprisoned, and the interrogation work is also in the prison.
It's just that later Dongchang became more powerful and unwilling to be subject to Jinyiwei, except for the emperor's decree that he must be imprisoned, the prisoners they caught were directly locked in their own private small prisons, and the interrogations were separated from Jinyiwei.
Dongchang set up a private prison, which was acquiesced by the emperor, but it was still illegal in terms of procedure, and many courtiers objected, but in the end they could not change.
"Shen Yiping, you ......"
"How can anyone who wants to enter the Jinyi Guard Prison be able to come in, come here, and send me out irrelevant people!" Meng Yan made a strong appearance, and although there was only one person, he suppressed the momentum of the Dongchang and others.
"Mark the right room of the Jinyi Weibei Imperial Prison, Shen Yiping, see the inspection department, the thousand households, Lord Meng!" As soon as Shen Yiping saw Meng Yan appear, he immediately showed joy and walked forward quickly to salute.
"Lord Shen is exempt!"
Jiang Han, the head of the Dongchang stall, was very embarrassed, but other people's official positions were above him, although they were not subordinate to each other, but if he didn't come forward to salute, it would be a broken rule.
"Xiaguan ......"
"A small commander, whose rank is no more than nine grades, dares to call himself a subordinate official?" Meng Yan said coldly.
Jiang Han was choked on the spot all of a sudden, and his face turned from white to blue.
"Master Meng, although you are in a high position, you don't need to humiliate your subordinates like this, right?" Jiang Han said coldly.
"This official has never had a good impression of the people in Dongchang, you can think whatever you like, this is the Jinyi Guard's Imperial Prison, you brought so many people here, are you planning to rob the prison or threaten it?" Meng Yan sneered.
"Xia Guan was just ordered to take Qiu Tiangang back for questioning."
"Whose order does it have credentials?"
"It's Grandpa Gao's order!"
"Gao Gonggong, Gao Rang?"
"Yes!"
Meng Yan frowned, Gao Rang was Wang Zhen's henchman, after Cao Jixiang was reprimanded, Gao Rang temporarily took charge of the East Factory, it can be said that if there is no special change, this Gao Rang is very likely to be the next eunuch of the Celebrant Commander Palm Seal.
