Chapter 31: Journey to Tiger Mountain Again
Ye Xiaotian rode his horse and walked on the road, remembering the scene when he was alone with Yu Junting, he still had a little palpitations.
At that time, she was forced to pretend to be a little slave girl and forcibly took possession of her body, at that time, the two were still completely opposed, if it weren't for Yu Junting's selfish feelings for him, how could she be forced to comply, just slap her......
Thinking of this, Ye Xiaotian couldn't help but turn his head and sighed to Li Qiuchi: "Mr. Li, no wonder there is an old saying: If you don't die in a big disaster, you will have a blessing in the future." If a person does not die when he should die, then he must be blessed by the gods, how can he not have great blessings and karma? ”
Li Qiuchi didn't understand why Ye Xiaotian suddenly had such a feeling, he thought about it for a while, and deeply agreed: "What the adults said is very true, I think that at the beginning, the students ran to Hulu County at night, and they were panicked, like a lost dog, when they were intercepted by you, the adults were really scared, and they expected to die!" ”
Li Qiuchi thought about the past, and said with embarrassment: "But the student should die but not die, since then his fate has changed greatly, he has stepped into the career from a lawyer, and now he can follow the adult, how can the glory be comparable to when he was a teacher." ”
Ye Xiaotian: "......"
Guizhou's roads are either mountains or waters, so except for a few developed areas such as Shiqian to transition by boat, most areas are only suitable for horses, if you have to take a car, it is not impossible, but then the road will be much more difficult, and the speed will not be fast.
Therefore, Ye Xiaotian went to Guiyang this time, and the entourage of the brigade all rode horses. Ye Xiaotian was riding a tall horse and was heading forward, when he suddenly saw a man in a green shirt on the side of the road, riding on the back of a donkey, holding a book in his hand and reading it intently. There is also a little servant leading a donkey in front, and he is very good.
Ye Xiaotian was envious, so he pointed at the man with a horsewhip and said to Li Qiuchi: "Now I am running around and tired of running for my life. All I want is to have a free future in the future. But you see this man, his status is not as good as mine, and now he is at ease. ”
Wen Ao caught up and smiled: "Otherwise, otherwise!" What you want is a great leisure, and what you want is great freedom, which is very different from what such passers-by want. ”
Ye Xiaotian thought about it, couldn't help laughing, and said, "What Mr. Wen said is that what I want is different from him, and it should be harder than him." It's just that...... Now look at his leisurely state. It's still inevitable to feel envious......"
At this time, the green-robed man riding on the donkey felt that a large group of people and horses passed by, and couldn't help but raise his head, Ye Xiaotian made eye contact with him, and was stunned for a moment, so he continued to say what Fang Cai said, and said again: "Hmm...... I don't envy this person's freedom! ”
The benevolent brother who rides a donkey upside down and reads leisurely is none other than Mr. Li Xiangrong and Li Da, who have experienced Tongren Mansion. The green cloud cover can't take revenge happily, as if he is the second seed of the Divine Turtle after Hua Qingfeng, where does Ye Xiaotian want to learn from him.
When Li experienced seeing Ye Xiaotian, he couldn't help but show surprise. He hurriedly turned over and rolled off the donkey's back, gave Ye Xiaotian a long throw, and said loudly: "It turned out to be Chief Ye, I don't know where Chief Ye is going?" ”
Ye Xiaotian reined in the horse. Turned over and jumped down, stepped forward and said, "Ye is about to go to Guiyang, where is Brother Li going?" ”
Li Xiangrong said repeatedly: "Don't you dare to be an adult, you call Brother Li." Adults just call it to experience it in Xia Li. Next...... Now he has been transferred to the Guiyang Governor's Yamen to serve as a scribe for the new governor, and now he is going to take up his post. ”
Ye Xiaotian is no longer an official, and he does not work in the prefect's yamen, so he doesn't know that Li Shi has been transferred to Guiyang. Ye Xiaotian said: "Haha, the scribe of the governor's yamen, that authority is not comparable to other yamen, Brother Li is promoted, congratulations, congratulations!" ”
Li Xiangrong smiled reluctantly, and said politely: "The former governor moved to another place, and took away a lot of familiar subordinates, the new Governor Ye came from Liaodong, and there were not so many retinues to bring, and the governor's yamen had a lot of shortcomings. In the lower part of the new governor's henchmen, he is neither a confidant nor an old man of the governor's yamen, and he is not allowed to reuse, how happy is it! ”
Ye Xiaotian said with a smile: "Once Governor Ye arrives in Guiyang, he will definitely cultivate his own team, you are not the old man of the Governor's Yamen, you are the character that Governor Ye has cultivated, with Brother Li's talent, are you afraid that you will not be able to reuse it when the time comes?" ”
Ye Xiaotian said, knowing in his heart about Li Xiangrong's relocation to Guiyang. Li Xiangrong's mother-in-law was slept with by Dai Tongzhi's wandering son, but Dai Tongzhi's power was far greater than Li Xiangrong's, and Li Xiangrong couldn't help him. Later, Li Xiangrong also thought of a way, such as being a disciple under the Yeya, and hugging the thigh of the Ye family.
However, after a short period of confrontation and hostility, the Yu family and the Ye family soon became close comrades-in-arms again. And Dai Tongzhi is Yu Junting's right-hand man, Ye Xiaotian is impossible to attack Dai Chonghua for him Li Xiangrong, Li Xiangrong and Dai Tongzhi have made a feud again, Tongren can't stay anymore, what if he doesn't leave?
Ye Xiaotian felt a little sorry in his heart, so he comforted him with kind words: "I see that Brother Li has a big mouthful, and he is destined to eat the wealth of all directions!" With steady legs and agile personality, it's the life of the land of four horses, and it's good to walk around, maybe it's above the clouds, so it's even more important to congratulate you in advance. ”
Li experienced a wry smile and said, "That's right! I'm just a big mouth, but I don't know if I can eat Bafang with a big mouth, it's true that my nature likes to move right and wrong, sitting at home behind closed doors, and disasters can come from the sky. ”
Ye Xiaotian said: "Brother Big Mouth, why did he say this!" Ah no, why did Brother Li say this, although the younger brother is an official in Woniu and can't manage the affairs of Guiyang, but if there is a place where the younger brother needs help in the future, Brother Li can just speak! ”
Li Dazui...... When Li experienced this, he hurriedly thanked him. Since the two of them were on the same road, they were both going to Guiyang, so they became companions, Ye Xiaotian thought that his donkey was walking too slowly, so he asked someone to vacate the horse carrying the luggage and gave him a horse to use as a ride, and rushed to Guiyang together.
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
Huguang, on the wide official road outside Jingzhou Mansion, a neat team is walking like a forest, although the number of this team is small, but it is extremely strict and mighty. The array of foot soldiers waved countless flags, red and black battle robes, and swords and guns shining with cold light, and it looked spectacular as they slowly marched.
In the center of the procession was a large oil-walled cart pulled by four jujube horses, with a low curtain and a simple appearance. Although the decoration is very simple, people who know the goods can see that this number must be carefully built by skilled craftsmen, because the details are full of thought, although it seems ordinary, there is an awe-inspiring power in the ordinary.
There were more than 100 knights dressed in battle robes, sitting on tall horses, with bright armor, neat saddles, swords and shields, and tasseled spears. The snow blade is cold, very majestic and majestic. As soon as passers-by saw it, they didn't need to open the gong, so they automatically and spontaneously avoided it.
This team is the new governor Ye Mengxiong who went to Guizhou to take up his post. At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, the governor was only a temporary envoy, and for special reasons, he temporarily appointed a senior official to oversee the civil, economic, military, and judicial powers of one or even several provinces. It's a bit like Chincha.
Later, the governor gradually became a permanent officer. Futai supervises taxes and grains, prime ministers the river, and cares for the displaced people. Rectify the border passes, take charge of the military, and also manage the criminal law. The three divisions of moderation (the Department of Political Envoys, the Department of Punishment and Prosecution, and the Department of Command Missions) became the first important military and political officials in the local area.
A term of governor. The power he holds can be snatched by life and death, which is equivalent to the emperor of the soil in his jurisdiction, except for a limited number of civil and military officials who hold power. All of them look up to their snorts! The authority is so heavy, even if you walk on the streets of Tusi, Guizhou, where there are as many local officials as dogs, should not be underestimated, otherwise why would many Guizhou magnates gather in Guiyang to wait for him.
On the super-large oil-walled car, there are bedrooms, latrines, study rooms, and reception rooms, just like a moving room. In the study, Ye Mengxiong was dressed in a casual robe, sitting behind the bookcase, although the appearance of the oil-walled car was not amazing, but from the bumps in the car at this moment, you can see the preciousness of the car, the road conditions are not very good, but the feeling in the car is not bad.
Ye Mengxiong is about fifty years old, his beard and hair are all black, the wind god is handsome, and he must have been a beautiful man like a god when he was young. He has been in the officialdom for a long time, has been in a big position for a long time, and the majestic temperament honed by the experience of years and the environment is even more daunting.
On the opposite side of the bookcase, sitting on the top of the brocade pier with both hands on his knees, it was Ye Xiaotian's old acquaintance and old boss, Hua Qingfeng Hua Lord. Hua Qingfeng finally decided to go out of the mountain, but he was originally a seventh-rank official, and now he is coming back, and it is not easy to arrange it.
After receiving the application, the imperial court first had to investigate him, after all, his "illness" was different from ordinary diseases, and whoever dared to conclude that he would definitely return to normal. After a detailed investigation of him, and a visit to the local gentry, it was confirmed that after Hua Qingfeng was cured, he was considered to have made an official comeback.
However, after his comeback, he is still just a candidate officer, because of a radish and a pit, even if he is not a regular seal official, there is no vacancy for a while, he can only wait for someone to become a leader, someone to die violently or be caught committing a crime, and after the vacancy is vacant, he will compete with countless alternate officials.
But luck came, and it really couldn't be stopped by the city walls. Ye Mengxiong, the new governor of Guiyang, came from Liaodong and happened to pass through his city, where the local officials and incumbent senior officials attended Governor Ye's reception.
At the banquet, the local officialdom veteran who admired Hua Qingfeng very much heard that Governor Ye did not have many staff, so he personally recommended Hua Qingfeng to him. Ye Mengxiong met with Hua Qingfeng the next day, and after a correct answer, Ye Mengxiong was very satisfied with him, a dignified former Qipin Zhixian gave him a staff member, and he was still unwilling, so Hua Qingfeng officially became a guest of Lord Futai.
According to his authority, the governor is equivalent to the current secretary of the provincial party committee, governor and secretary of the provincial discipline inspection commission, commander of the provincial military district, director of the provincial public security department, and president of the provincial court.
For example, the political envoy yamen, or the prefect's yamen, the county yamen, all have a complete set of subordinate bureaucratic teams, but the governor's yamen has no one, this yamen has only one official, that is, the governor, and the clerks under him are collectively referred to as the scribes, and dozens of scribes have their own responsibilities and perform their own duties, and the various yamen that manage the government, economy, and military affairs have great powers, but they have no official status.
Hua Qingfeng likes this arrangement very much, he has already had enough days of having a job and no power, he would rather have the right to have no position, not to mention, he can't be treated badly by doing things under the governor. He served as a staff secretary for the governor for a few years, and then arranged it in the official yamen, and the court also recognized his achievements and qualifications when he was a staff member.
Hua Qingfeng was telling Ye Mengxiong about the intricate relationship of Guizhou officialdom at this time, he had been in Huxian for a few years, although he had nothing to do, he still knew what he should know, and it was also methodical to say. The first-class and second-class magnates have been talked about all over, and today I am talking about the third-class officials.
Ye Xiaotian, who has already won the title of Chief Judge of the Crouching Cow Lawsuit, is naturally among his telling. Governor Ye frowned slightly when he heard him, and said in a deep voice: "The old man, the little brother of his own family, seems to be a little ...... Hmmm......"
He listened to what Ye Xiaotian did, and he didn't know how to describe this, so Hua Qingfeng saw this and said: "Lord Futai, this Ye Xiaotian is simply a-stirring stick who is afraid that the world will not be chaotic!" ”
Governor Ye laughed hehehe: "Hmm! It's a bit vulgar, but it's also vivid. A-stirring stick that fears that the world will not be chaotic? Haha, good! All right! What the old man needs now is not just a character like him! ”
Ye Mengxiong's deep eyes flashed with a wise smile.
