Chapter 122: Letter from the Capital
Looking at the officials of all sizes in the Guangyang Prefecture, only Tongzhi and Tongju are official positions above the sixth rank.
The same knowledge is the positive five products, and the general judgment is the positive six products.
Therefore, among the officials of the Guangyang Mansion, only the same acquaintance Xie Ming and the other general judge were qualified to enter the chief of the meeting room.
The rest of the officials of Guangyang Prefecture, such as the officials, the experience, and the governor, went to the side hall to sit down, and at the same time accompanied those officials below the sixth rank in the brocade guard.
Although only Xie Ming was qualified to accompany Zhou Chen among all the officials in Guangyang Mansion, there were many Jinyi Wei officials at the banquet.
Among the Jinyi Guard, there are hundreds of households with the grade of six products.
And now there are more than ten Jinyiwei under Zhou Chen's command, so most of the people sitting at the same table with Zhou Chen are Jinyiwei officials.
After all, Xie Ming and the two of them are just officials in the Guangyang Mansion, while the Jinyiwei under Zhou Chen is the Jinyiwei in the entire Shanxi.
Shanxi has a total of six prefectures and two Zhili prefectures, of which each Zhili Prefecture is stationed in one Jinyi Wei hundred households, and each prefecture is stationed in two Jinyi Wei hundred households.
The entire Shanxi Jinyi Wei Hundred Households together are a full fourteen officials of the six products.
Coupled with Zhou Chen and Badao, there were exactly twenty people sitting above the chief in this living room.
Between pushing the cups and changing the lamps, everyone also introduced themselves to Zhou Chen.
Whether it is the two officials of the Guangyang Mansion, or the fourteen brocade guards and hundreds of households, they are all trying their best to please Zhou Chen, the top boss.
At the same time, Zhou Chen was also enveloping these officials under his command, which made the atmosphere in the entire meeting room extremely harmonious.
The normal banquet lasted until the end of the afternoon, and the very happy crowd left separately.
Chen Yun and Xu Yan and other hundred households of Jinyiwei began to settle the newly established Jinyiwei Yamen.
Now that the Jinyi Guards in the entire Shanxi territory are gathered in this Guangyang Mansion City, it can be said that this place almost controls the intelligence information of the entire Shanxi territory, so it is naturally impossible for this Jinyi Guard to just set up a secret prison like before.
The new Jinyi Wei Yamen is next to the Guangyang Mansion, which is a part of Xie Ming's previous deliberately separated from the official office of the Guangyang Mansion.
The entire Jinyi Guard Yamen is very low-key, and even the plaque has not been hung.
However, even so, anyone with a little strength knows that this official office, which does not even have a plaque, is the most dangerous and terrifying place in the entire Guangyang Prefecture, and even on the boundary of Shanxi.
Since Zhou Chen took over as the commander of the Jinyi Guard, all the Jinyi Guards in the entire Shanxi have been under his command.
Now that Zhou Chen has arrived in Guangyang Mansion, and the station of the Jinyi Wei Yamen has been properly prepared, the fourteen Jinyi Wei hundred households in Shanxi will naturally merge and run together.
After these hundred households of Jinyi Wei were moved, the officials of Guangyang Mansion were also not idle, and they began to collect the files of Guangyang Mansion, so that Zhou Chen, the new prefect, could understand the people's livelihood under his rule in detail.
However, it always takes a while to compile and collect these files, so Zhou Chen doesn't have any official business for the time being, so he took the sword to settle the mansion where they will live in the future.
In the next few days, Zhou Chen, who had completely settled down in Guangyang Mansion, learned about the people's livelihood in Guangyang Mansion and received the chief officials of various counties under his rule to come to visit.
Zhou Chen, the first person in Guangyang Mansion, arrived, and the magistrates of various places under his command naturally came to Jianjian to report on their work.
Of course, leaving a good impression in the eyes of his immediate boss is the most important goal of the governors and counties of Quang Duong Prefecture.
Throughout all the counties under the rule of Guangyang Mansion, there is one person who impresses Zhou Chen the most, and that person is Lou Zhi County of Qixia Town.
After all, Tong Xiangyu's inn is located in Qixia Town, and Zhou Chen naturally has to look at the parents and officials of Qixia Town twice.
After receiving these local magistrates, coupled with the files prepared by Xie Ming and others, Zhou Chen also had an understanding of the basic situation under the rule of Guangyang Mansion.
Although this Guangyang Mansion is not as rich and prosperous as the capital, Datong Mansion and other places, compared with the small places in the border such as Youyu County, the people's livelihood situation in this Guangyang Mansion is much better.
In this regard, Zhou Chen's heart was naturally very satisfied, he was unwilling to deal with those trivial official duties, since this Guangyang Mansion could make him worry-free, it was really good.
Next, Zhou Chen handed over all the trivial affairs to the officials of the Guangyang Mansion to perform their duties, in addition to dealing with some important intelligence news in the Jinyi Guard, he practiced without distractions on weekdays, and his small life can be described as extraordinarily leisurely.
However, this leisure did not last long, and an intelligence message from the capital completely broke Zhou Chen's comfortable life.
Today is the ninth day of the fifth month of the eighteenth year of Hongzhi, and early in the morning, Xu Yan took a secret letter from the Jinyi Wei Yamen to the back house of the Guangyang Mansion.
Xu Yan, who looked panicked, even ignored the obstruction of the knife and forcibly broke into Zhou Chen's bedroom.
If it weren't for the fact that Xu Yan had been following Zhou Chen's side for a long time, and it wasn't for the sake of someone who didn't know the depths, I'm afraid that the tyrant would have already slashed Xu Yan who forcibly broke into the back house of the mansion.
At this time, the sky outside had not yet turned white, and Zhou Chen also heard the sound of movement outside the room before getting up from the bed.
By the time Xu Yan broke into the room, Zhou Chen's body was only wearing a bedgown.
However, Xu Yan seemed to ignore this, he ran straight to Zhou Chen's side, and said with a panicked and frightened face: "My lord, something is wrong, something is wrong in the capital!" ”
His brows frowned slightly, and Zhou Chen said in a deep voice with some dissatisfaction: "What is it that makes you, who have always been steady and cautious, so panicked?!" ”
It is precisely because Xu Yan has always been cautious and steady that Zhou Chenfang will let him take charge of the intelligence and information transmission of the Jinyi Guard Yamen of Guangyang Mansion.
It can be said that almost all the intelligence information detected by Zhou Chen's Jinyiwei was compiled by Xu Yan.
And whenever the Jinyiwei Yamen of Guangyang Mansion and the Jinyiwei Headquarters of the capital had an intelligence exchange, Xu Yan was also the first person to know.
In the past, no matter how important the intelligence information was, Xu Yan never showed the slightest uncalm look.
I don't know what kind of news came from the headquarters of Jinyiwei in the capital this time, which actually made Xu Yan lose his temper to such a point.
