Fan Ning initially had no idea of serving as Ying Tianfu, but Zhao Zongshi hoped that he would go to Ying Tianfu to take office and reverse the situation that Ying Tianfu completely fell to Zhang Jia and the others, and in less than half a month, Fan Ning did reverse the situation and end the pattern of Zhang Jia's faction monopolizing Ying Tianfu.

But it's not that Fanning's mission is over, he just won the first stage, in fact, it wasn't Yang Du that Zhao Zongshi asked him to deal with, but Zhao Qian, the pacification envoy of Jingdong Road.

Ying Tianfu's status is respected, it is by no means Ying Tianfu's monopoly, Ying Tianfu is also the seat of Jingdong Road, five prefectures, twelve states and eighty-one counties, and the officials of the four major road divisions of Shuai, Cao, Xian and Cang are all in Yingtianfu, with a garrison of nearly 100,000 people.

All functional departments of Tianfu are in line with and subject to their jurisdiction.

The division of powers between the prefect and the general judgment is mainly distinguished in the relationship with the road division, the local government implements a dual-track system, the prefect and the governor belong to the imperial court and are responsible to the imperial court, while the general judgment is the local official, mainly docking the road division's various officials.

Among the four major road divisions of the pacification envoy, the transfer envoy, the criminal prison division and the Changping Division, the pacification envoy is in charge of military power, commanding the 30,000 Xiang troops on Jingdong Road, and the pacification envoy is called Zhao Qian, who is Zhang Yaozuo's promoted henchman, he led the 30,000 Xiang army to garrison Yingtianfu, and is one of Zhang Yaozuo's core powers.

Once Zhao Zhen dies, hundreds of officials support Zhao Zongshi, and Zhang Yaozuo, who is not willing to fail, is likely to rely on Ying Tianfu's army to launch a coup d'état, which is an external threat that Zhao Zongshi's faction has to guard against.

Fan Ning served as the prefect of Yingtian, in order to drive a wedge in Yingtianfu, and then look for an opportunity to bring down and pacify Zhao Qian.

Of course, Zhao Qian is not Yang Du, he will not easily have a conflict of interest with Fan Ning, and it is not a matter of a day or two to bring him down, and it must be considered in the long run.

For two days, Fanning was busy picking up people on the dock, and on the first day, Wang Anshi, the new general judge of Ying Tianfu, took office, and Fan Ning led the officials of Ying Tianfu to come to the dock to greet him.

The next day, his family and servants arrived at Yingtianfu on three large ships.

Fan Ning hugged her daughter Fan Zhen and walked into the mansion with her wife Zhu Pei and Ouyang Qian, and her mother Zhang Sanniang followed with her sister Ado, followed by Aya and Jian Meizi and four female guards.

"A-Ning, this mansion seems to be much bigger than the mansion in the capital!" Zhang Sanniang exclaimed.

"Mother, the area of this mansion is thirty-three acres, which is twelve acres larger than the mansion in the capital, and there is a hill in the backyard, you go and take a look."

Zhu Pei has been pregnant for five months, and her richness is beginning to become obvious, she heard that there is a mountain in the backyard, so she hurriedly urged: "The front yard will look at it later, take us to see the back house first!" ”

Everyone walked through the atrium and came to the back house, and at a glance they saw a small hill like a mountain forest, and they exclaimed together, when the daughter suddenly saw a little squirrel, and danced with joy and screamed with joy.

Everyone walked around the hill, and the more Zhu Pei looked at it, the more he liked it, and turned back to Fanning and asked, "Why didn't you buy this house?" ”

Fanning smiled: "First of all, the landlord doesn't sell, and then I will be here for a maximum of one or two years, and I may not come again in the future, and I can't live in it if I buy it, if I like it, I can rent it for ten years." ”

Behind him, Ouyang Qian smiled curiously and asked, "Husband, what other small animals are there in this small mountain forest besides squirrels?" ”

This is also the answer that everyone wants to know, and everyone looks at Fanning together.

Fanning scratched his head and said, "I'll tell you the truth, this is the first time I've seen this little squirrel, and I haven't found anything before." ”

"Brother, there are still a few big bird's nests there!" Addo pointed to the top of the tree and shouted.

Fanning realized that there were really a few large bird's nests at the top of the tree, which he hadn't found before.

"Maybe I didn't pay attention! If you look closely, there may be surprises. ”

Fan Ning wanted to say that there might be snakes, but he didn't dare to say it, except for his mother Zhang Sanniang, several other women in their family were afraid of snakes, and they couldn't live here if they said it.

"Let's look back at the mountains and forests, let's go and see the residence first, there are a total of five courtyards in the back house, and you can assign them yourself."

The backyard of the willow house is uniquely designed, centered on an eight-acre mountain forest, surrounded by a small river, and then five courtyards are arranged around the mountain forest like five petals, and then the outermost corridor connects the five courtyards.

There is no east courtyard here, of course Zhang Sanniang's mother and daughter also have to live in the back house, and then the housewife Zhu Pei lives in the main courtyard, next to Ouyang Qian's courtyard, and there are two empty courtyards inhabited by Jian Meizi, Aya and four female guards, plus more than 20 maids and servants, the whole back house suddenly became lively.

This time, Fan Ning recruited only two coachmen who were familiar with the road conditions in Songcheng County, and the remaining nearly forty servants were all brought from the capital, and Liu Jing, the chief housekeeper, and Wu Shi, the housekeeper, were in charge.

Three wagons and a dozen horses had arrived by land the day before.

Of course, following the Fan Ning family, there are also the properties of the Fan family and the Zhu family, the Zhu family money shop is ready to open three more in Yingtianfu, and the stone treasure and strange stone museum inscribed by Zhao Zhen, the son of heaven, will also open a branch in Songcheng County, and Zhu Lou will also appear in Yingtianfu.

Moving is a very tiring thing, mainly because a large number of luggage needs to be disassembled, and a lot of items have to be purchased gradually, but fortunately, most of the luggage when they came from Pingjiang Mansion was not disassembled, and it was sent directly to Yingtianfu, saving a lot of trouble, but even so, they had to pack up for at least half a month to settle down.

Compared with the troubles of moving, the new general judge Wang Anshi took office much faster, and the next day he devoted himself to government affairs.

Wang Anshi is a typical workaholic, he came to the official office before dawn every day, and he was not willing to go home until dark, and for several days, he devoted himself to understanding all kinds of documents and materials of Ying Tianfu.

Fan Ning did not monopolize power like his predecessor sentenced Yang Du, the dispute between him and Yang Du was not for power, but for the battle of factions, Wang Anshi is a rich person, and Fan Ning is the same faction, of course he doesn't have to put on small shoes for Wang Anshi, Fan Ning even threw most of the trivial government affairs to Wang Anshi, he only grasped some core affairs, such as the income distribution of silver money and food materials, such as the supply of food and materials for 2,000 township soldiers, such as the management of the field house directly under the government government, such as the assessment of officials, etc., He also handed over these core affairs to two aides, Gongsun Xuance and Zhang Bo.

There was only one thing that Fanning personally grasped and did not hand over to the two staff, that is, the mobilization of the army and the patrol.

As for Wang Anshi's affairs, there are many things, Liu Cao's daily government affairs, education, public security, building bridges and paving roads, accepting civil appeals, and the response of lower-level counties and superiors Lu Si, etc.

At noon that day, Fan Ning invited Wang Anshi to have lunch at Songzhou Restaurant, which was also the first time that Wang Anshi had sat down to eat since he took office.

"When do Brother Jiefu's family plan to pick up Ying Tianfu?"

Wang Anshi's wife, children and mother are all in the capital, and now there is only one concubine around him to take care of his daily life.

Wang Anshi is a filial son, his biological parents are buried in the capital, and his current mother is his father's stepfamily, but Wang Anshi still regards him as his biological mother, extremely filial, where to take office, first of all, you have to consider how to place your mother.

"The official mansion is still being cleaned up, and after it is cleaned up, it is estimated that it will take at least half a month to bring the old mother, wife and children from the capital."

"It's best to bring your family before it's hot, the summer in the capital is too hot, although Ying Tianfu is also hot, but the government has enough ice to store, and the government will take care of it, at least it will be a little better."

Wang Anshi nodded, poured a full glass of wine for Fan Ning, and said: "The position of Si Lu to join the army is currently vacant, and the impact is relatively large, is there a suitable candidate?" ”

This position is a key node connecting the prefect and the general judgment, and the main role is to coordinate the demarcation of the authority of the general judgment and the prefect, so this position is quite important, and it is best to be recognized by both parties.

Fan Ning had been considering this candidate, and he pondered for a moment and said, "How about Lu Huiqing?" ”

Lu Huiqing and Wang Anshi have an excellent relationship, and they are appreciated by Fan Ning, coupled with their outstanding personal ability, they are indeed the best candidates.

Wang Anshi nodded, "He is indeed more suitable!" ”

In fact, Wang Anshi planned to implement his reform plan in Yingtianfu, although he couldn't determine Fanning's attitude, but at least Fanning and his reform plan have a deep relationship and would not strongly resist, and with the assistance of Lu Huiqing, it would be a good demonstration point to promote the reform in Yingtianfu.
