At the foot of Longmen Mountain, there were several officials standing alone.

Up and down the mountain, a vast expanse, this is already the third snow after the winter, the earth is finally wrapped in snow-white fur, white velvet.

The location of the mountain pass is the whole place where the mountain wind is whistling in and out, so a few small officials in green and green official robes and a few handymen in two clothes stood for a while, then put their sleeves into their arms, stomped their feet, and their faces were stiff from the cold.

A middle-aged man in a green shirt sniffed and looked out of the mountain, where a gust of mountain wind happened to blow out of the valley and rolled the snow foam into his neck. The man in the green shirt shuddered, quickly shrunk his neck, and said to an old man in a green robe, with a hooked nose and a fleshless face: "Xue Tangcheng, it's too windy here, why don't we go back to the mountains and wait, our bodies are almost freezing." ”

The hook-nosed Tang Cheng also froze his face blue, his muscles were stiff, and he couldn't even make an expression, he just snorted coldly, stomped his feet, warmed his body, and said: "Xu Lushi, if you want to go back, go back, don't blame the old brother for not telling you, our soup supervisor, don't look at it now, it's a disaster, but there are King Liang and Princess Taiping on the top, and in the Criminal Department and the Ministry of Officials, everyone is a beautiful person, maybe one day they will soar into the sky, and they are still majestic." Even if people have to squat in this ravine for the rest of their lives, hehe! ”

Xue Tangcheng glanced at him and said coldly: "The person who can hold the Criminal Department in his hands and single-handedly defeat the Yushitai, you weigh it in your own heart, what kind of ruthless character is that, you ...... Offended don't get up! ”

Xu Lu has been in the mountains for a long time, he doesn't ask about the world, and he really doesn't know as much as this Xue Tangcheng, and when he heard this, he became nervous: "Our soup supervisor is so powerful?" Xue Tangcheng, tell your brothers what this soup supervisor ......

Xue Tangcheng suddenly perked up. Squinting his old eyes, he pointed forward: "It's coming!" Su Zhanggu. Hurry up and see if our soup supervisor has arrived. ”

Xu Lushi put his hand on the canopy, looked at the convoy of people and horses coming in the distance, and muttered to himself: "It can't be that the soup supervisor has arrived, isn't it a noble person who wants to enter the mountain to Tangmu?" ”

A group of people in the distance did not look like Lord Yang Fan, the soup supervisor of Longmen Hot Springs, taking office.

There were four cars in that group. Surrounded by strong horses and horses, knights and warriors, there are more than ten guards with swords and swords, look at this pomp and circumstance, jiashi, it really doesn't look like a small hot spring soup supervisor taking office.

Su Zhanggu was trekking in the heavy snow, and before he had gone far, the group of carriages and horses had already approached. More than a dozen guards wore swords under their ribs and rode beside the car, all of them with green satin arrow sleeves, lamb coats, fluffy white lamb hoods, and cloaks with lambskin jackets and wool felt.

The four carts, all of which were double-wheeled oil-walled light carts, were all pulled by two strong horses. In this thick snow. It's actually going very fast.

When the car approached, I saw the shiny chariot. All of them are wearing dark blue car enclosures, and the hidden nails, curtain hooks, and head packages on the carriage are all polished with white copper, shiny.

Looking at this kind of grandeur, Xue Tangcheng also felt that this could never be the arrival of Lord Tang Supervisor, how could a small hot spring soup supervisor have so many guards and entourage? Not to mention anything else, even the dozen or so guards, all of whom were dressed in leather jackets and fur coats, were not princely families, and it was impossible for them to buy such luxurious warm clothes for their entourage.

Xue Tangcheng didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly led a group of attachés to greet him, and said respectfully: "The villain Longmen Hot Spring soup supervisor Tang Cheng Xue Ning, I don't know which noble person is coming to Longmen!" ”

The curtain of the first car on the car was lifted, and a person came out of it, this person wore a black fox fur coat, covered with a stone blue carved silk gray squirrel cloak, a snow-white fox tail wind collar around his neck, and a stove in his arms, with a long and majestic body, handsome and mighty facial features, but because of this dress, there is a kind of grace and elegance of a noble son.

He looked at these subordinate officials of the hot spring soup supervisor who were frozen like quails, nodded to them politely, and said with a smile: "Contemptible Yang Fan, this cold wind is howling and the snow is falling, and you colleagues are welcome from afar!" ”

Yang Fan!

This person is really Yang Fan, the new supervisor of Longmen Hot Spring Soup.

For a while, Xue Jiancheng, Xu Lushi and other colleagues were a little speechless.

Further on, we entered the valley, and the car could not drive in, so the car stopped at the foot of the mountain, and everyone had to walk into the mountain.

At this time, Xue Tangcheng understood what the three cars behind were loaded with.

There were two pretty maids in the car, those were the third sister and Taomei, and the two little girls were selected into the Yang family because they were born beautiful. In the past few years, I have eaten well and dressed well in Yang's house, and the two yellow-haired girls have become big girls, and they are more and more smart and pretty.

In addition, there is a fat chef and two little apprentices in the car, in addition to a bunch of books, a bunch of kitchenware, condiments, adults and entourage covers and some other application sundries. Look at this jiashi, it doesn't look like the new soup supervisor has arrived, but it looks like an outing for the children of a wealthy family.

The colleagues of the hot spring soup supervisor really opened their eyes, this new soup supervisor is really not an ordinary person, this kind of pomp, it seems that the king of Hanoi Wu Yizong came to Longmen Tang Bath a few days ago, and it was nothing more than this when he enjoyed the hot springs.

With Wu Zetian's words, Yang Fan, who was already high in the Tianguan Mansion and had the authority to know the power, was planted from the Nine Heavens and became a Longmen Hot Spring soup supervisor from the sixth grade.

This kind of debasement is tantamount to five thunderstorms for people who are in a frank and proud spring breeze for other careers, and even if they don't collapse, they will inevitably feel depressed. But for Yang Fan, it doesn't matter at all, with his status as the sect leader of the Sect, even if he is no longer an official at all?

Now that he is such a petty official, it is more conducive to him to make a good life and run the Xianzong, otherwise he will inevitably spend a lot of energy dealing with the affairs of the imperial court every day. Yang Fan happily went to the Ministry of Officials to receive the "Decree" first, and then went to Sinong Temple to report, because the Longmen Hot Spring Soup Supervisor is a subordinate yamen of Sinong Temple. As soon as the formalities were completed, he came to Longmen to take office.

At present, this kind of pomp and circumstance is not from Yang Fan's meaning, but Xiaoman feels sorry for Lang Jun, afraid that he will not eat or sleep well, and afraid that he will freeze and starve, so he has made so many preparations, making Yang Tangjian, who has just taken office, look like a prince who has come to Longmen to relax.

At this time, Wu Zetian and the five ministers had returned to Luoyang, and Yang Zaisi was officially appointed as the prime minister. Originally, Li Zhaode monopolized the power, and the other prime ministers were like decorations, but now the imperial court has re-divided the powers of the prime minister, and after a division, Yang Zaisi is responsible for the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Industry.

Yang Zaisi's ability to manage the ministry is half natural and half artificial. The Ministry of Officials is a department with real power in charge of personnel appointments, and under normal circumstances, the prime ministers are of course willing to take charge, but the most head-scratching thing in the Wu Zhou Dynasty is personnel. The political struggles in the court have never been as fierce and frequent as those of the Wu Zhou Dynasty.

The court officials are more diligent than cutting leeks, and every time it is because of the political purge and dumping caused by the participation of various shili factions and even the empress herself, so this errand is not easy to do. Not to mention it right now, there has just been a big scandal, and the prime ministers are even more reluctant to touch their hands, Yang Zaisi has just paid a visit to the prime minister, who will this embarrassing messenger not give him to?

However, Yang Fan is worried that something will go wrong, what if the prime minister is faint and has to rob this ministry? Therefore, he also used all Liliang to intervene and influence once the situation did not develop according to his expectations.

No one has ever had so much influence under the imperial court like Yang Fan. Because of his existence, he can mobilize the liliang of the Shandong Shi clan and the Guan Long family, and he can also mobilize the liliang of Princess Taiping.

As soon as the division of labor was over, Yang Zaisi began to repay his debts to the people who recommended him to the cabinet, and made a suggestion to the emperor: "Promote Zhao Gan of the Tianguan Mansion Si Feng Lang Zhong to be the Si Gong Lang Zhong, and he will continue to be responsible for the election of officials in Southern Xinjiang!" ”

The previous scandal of the Wu clan's people wantonly drilling camps and plotting to seize the official position in southern Xinjiang made Wu Zetian very passive, and she was also eager to end the matter, save the impact, and immediately agreed to Yang Zaisi's proposal.

The matter is not over yet, Yang Fan's series of actions, and even stirred up a huge storm and thunderstorm in the imperial court, all the efforts are for this moment, and now his final jihua has just begun to be implemented.

Yang Fan went up the mountain with the hot spring supervisors, and the servants and maidservants went to arrange Yang Fan's residence and place all the things he brought with him, while Xue Tangcheng and several officials accompanied Yang Fan, who had changed into official clothes, to inspect the scope of his jurisdiction and the affairs he managed.

Xue Tangcheng's name is Xue Ning, Xu Lushi's name is Xu Lin, and the first person to greet Yang Fan is called Su Jianqiu. There is a soup supervisor in this hot spring, and now it is Yang Fan. There is also Tang Cheng, who is his deputy Xue Ning, an official under the seventh grade. In addition, there are one person in the record, one person in the house, two people in the history, four people in Zhanggu, and the rest are twelve ordinary deacons.

Yang Fan is in charge of twenty-one people and two mountains, and he is the biggest official on the two mountains with hot springs, which is really not majestic!

"Yang Tangjian, please see, according to the mountain, the imperial court from top to bottom, there are twenty-one palaces on two mountains, for the emperor Bixia and the princes to use. Supervisor Tang, please go here again......"

Yang Fan walked into a greenhouse built by the mountain, and couldn't help but be surprised, only to see a bunch of fertile soil inside, planted with many melons, fruits, vegetables and vegetables, many vegetables and fruits that have long been out of season and cannot grow at all and are difficult to keep in the cellar for a long time.

Xue Tangcheng saw that he was surprised, and said with a smug smile: "Our hot spring soup supervisor is not only in charge of the soup pool, because there are geothermal hot springs here, and the climate is warm, so it is covered with a canopy to grow melons, fruits and vegetables, which can be born against the season and exclusively for the royal family!" ”

"Hmmm! Good, good, it's amazing! ”

Yang Fan nodded, pinched his chin, and began to think about how to get some vegetables and fruits to go back to his wife and children to try.
