Chapter 683: The Divine Decree Arrives (1)

Zhang Zhongjun's preparation was not in vain, and sure enough, when he had prepared most of the affairs, the officials of the Ministry of Rites came first.

Zhang Zhongjun is not a stupid person, and it is impossible for this kind of person who does not have the slightest conflict of interest with him to put on a cold face. And getting along with others, how to make the other party have a good impression of you for the first time is a kind of aristocratic education.

In the past, Zhang Zhongjun was just unwilling to use them, not that he didn't know how to use these communication methods.

Therefore, after Zhang Zhongjun warmly welcomed and accompanied, and the following personnel respectfully sent rich gifts, the original official of the Ministry of Rites and his entourage with a stiff face immediately smiled. The boss and Zhang Zhongjun call each other brothers, and the younger brothers below call friends, and the atmosphere is very warm.

In such an atmosphere, Zhang Zhongjun knew what the model of aristocratic canonization etiquette was. At the same time, I also know that I will enjoy the most shabby one, which is the ritual of kneeling down and kowtowing to receive the holy decree.

The person from the Ministry of Rites also patted his chest and said to Zhang Zhongjun: "Brother, this is the ghost of those old guys in the capital, the etiquette canonized by nobles like this, I dare not say that I use the most cumbersome one, how can I use the general, the lowest etiquette like this one is completely slapping you in the face!"

"But it doesn't matter, brother, I know the father-in-law who passed the decree, I will help you talk about it, and then give you a generous gift money, the guild is waiting for you to make the etiquette to a medium level, even if you can't change the record of the noble canonization, but let these hillbillies know how lively you are when you are glorious!"

Originally, Zhang Zhongjun was eager to use the lowest etiquette to receive the holy decree, but to this official of the Ministry of Rites, damn it, it really has to be, this etiquette is for outsiders to see, not for himself, and the scene of receiving the holy decree and becoming a nobleman is shabby, it is really embarrassing to lose face!

However, Zhang Zhongjun also hesitated: "Will this be charged as a violation?"

"Haha, brother, you don't know, in fact, the more solemn the occasion for you to receive the holy decree, the more it represents the respect for His Majesty the Emperor, His Majesty the Emperor does not pursue you, who dares to investigate your violation? That is a slap in the face of His Majesty the Emperor!" said the official of the Ministry of Rites very proudly.

Zhang Zhongjun couldn't help but nodded, damn it, fortunately, he spent a lot of money to buy this official of the Ministry of Rites. If I hadn't left him, I'm afraid I wouldn't know that there are so many cats in here!

Now that he knew, Zhang Zhongjun of course ordered people to prepare.

So, in an instant, all of Zhang Zhongjun's subordinates went out to cover the entire district government with red and hang colors, and this red hanging color also extended to the county road interface that was about to enter Zijin County.

Needless to say, there are a lot of firecrackers, a lot of food and drinks, and some well-known chefs have also booked a time early and brought their helpers to prepare.

Similarly, the samurai with a large ticket rode out with invitations.

Originally, Zhang Zhongjun just wanted to invite the local tyrants in Shuilin District and the officials of Zijin County to celebrate, but under the guidance of the officials of the Ministry of Rites, the scope of sending invitations was expanded to all the entire Heyuan Prefecture.

Of course, Yide Palace and Fengwutang naturally have invitations to send, and people of what kind of status should get invitations, naturally there are specialized people to take care of them. Similarly, Luo Zhengrong from Magong Town will also have an invitation to send it. This is a partner, and this is not an invitation, which is really rude.

However, when he thought of Yide Palace and Fengwutang, Zhang Zhongjun felt very upset, it stands to reason that Yide Palace was so close to him before, and it was impossible for him not to communicate after he became the head of Shuilin District. Fengwutang is the same, he secretly let himself become a member of Fengwutang before, and after becoming the head of Shuilin District, there is no follow-up, as if these two forces don't know themselves at all.

Regarding Zhang Zhongjun's question, as long as there are no outsiders, Zhang Hongyan, the hen demon who is waiting by the side at any time, blinked his eyes very suspiciously and said: "Master, it has only been three months since you became the district head, and it should be normal for you to have no contact for three months, right? ”

"Well, that's the case, but it's okay to send a letter, right? I've written several letters to them. Zhang Zhongjun hesitated.

"Who knows if something happened to them, but if they didn't come to your canonization ceremony this time, then they really want to divide the line with you. Zhang Hongyan said casually.

"Well, there are other excuses and reasons, if I don't come to the ceremony of canonizing nobles, then you really have to draw a line with me. Zhang Zhongjun nodded, and put this matter that had puzzled him for a long time to judge when the ceremony was held.

In fact, Zhang Zhongjun took advantage of the aristocratic canonization ceremony to shoot invitations this time, which can also determine his reputation in this area.

Because as long as you look at how the person who received the invitation replied, you can know the other party's opinion of Zhang Zhongjun.

It's just that this result made Zhang Zhong a little cold, first of all, a few bigwigs in Heyuan Mansion, the door didn't let the messenger in, just the door looked at the invitation, and then sent the messenger away with a red envelope as a gift.

The statement of several bigwigs in Heyuan Mansion is the attitude of the officialdom of Heyuan Mansion, and those officials below who are bigger than Zhang Zhongjun in terms of official qualities directly let Menzi accept the invitation, and let Menzi directly wrap red envelopes as gifts.

The official quality is not as good as Zhang Zhongjun, so he naturally can't be so rude, and he still met the messenger in person, but he just sent a servant to follow the messenger to the water forest area to celebrate with the gift money.

Those so-called famous priests and Confucians, not to mention, directly let the messenger eat a closed door, and the disciples couldn't see it, let alone the gift money.

On the contrary, the gentry and tyrants who were not in the officialdom patted their chests one by one and said that they would personally participate in the noble canonization ceremony of Lord Zhang.

And the chief officials of the counties are the same as the chief officials of Heyuan Mansion City, but because of their grades, some of them directly let the housekeeper meet and send them away, and some of them personally receive and send them away, in fact, the essence is no different from the officials of Heyuan Mansion City, that is, it is impossible for Lao Tzu to attend the canonization ceremony of your Zhang Hongyi's nobles!

After receiving such a reply, Zhang Zhongjun directly sent someone to move all the manpower in his house in Heyuan Mansion to the Shuilin District. And the arrangement of the water forest area was also more detailed, because he was sure that once he became a nobleman, his official position in Heyuan Mansion would have to be dismissed.
