Jia Lian's official position as a carrier envoy is also a little delicate, there is nothing above to carry the envoy to the yamen, directly subordinate to the front line army tent, only on the fifteenth day of the new year, send a post back to the Kyoto court, just state the daily affairs.

And the military situation on the front line is like fire, how can Shangguan have the heart to ask Jia Lian to go and visit, he has already issued a document, asking him to take over the Yamen of the Fifth Road Carrier in Eastern Shaanxi first, and then meet again when he transports money, food and materials to the north.

Jia Lian has nothing to do, just to avoid rushing.

On June 28, in a hurry, Jia Lian finally arrived outside the city of Shaanzhou. I could have arrived earlier, but Sister Feng had a stomachache on the way, so I could only rest for two days on the way.

"It is worthy of being one of the largest state capitals in the northwest, and it is lively here." On the official road, Jia Lian rode on a horse and sighed, he now wears a hat on his head, not to shade the sun, but to block the wind and sand.

The official road is surrounded by a flat river, and today I vaguely overlook a large city, the land on all sides is planted with wheat, and the official road and the path next to the official road are full of pedestrians.

There are farmers pushing wheelbarrows, hawkers carrying burdens, and large merchants with carts and horses.

Looking back, some wind and sand were raised, and a group of cattle and sheep faintly appeared inside, and several people around were whipping, driving the cattle and sheep to Shaanzhou City to sell.

Although the northwest is barren, it is indeed rich in cattle and sheep......

"What's the excitement, the court sent you to this rural place, and there will be sand to eat in the future." Sister Feng lifted the curtain on the carriage and half-poked her head out to speak.

Compared with Jinling and Kyoto, this Shaanzhou is indeed a rural place.

Jia Lian listened to Sister Feng'er's complaints, but she didn't answer, she hit her horse forward and went to the post station outside the city to get her name.

In front of Mother Jia, she pulled out Sister Feng'er's money and brought her to Shaanzhou, and it was normal for Sister Feng to have some resentment in her heart.

Jia Lian prides himself on being a big husband, and he doesn't care about her generally.

In the post station outside the city of Shaanzhou, there was already a person sent by the local carrier Yamen waiting, and the person saw that Jia Lian had revealed his previous documents, so he hurriedly came to meet him, and then beat his horse to lead the way.

In this way, it is just so that you don't have to rest in the post station again.

Sister Feng didn't show up at this time, so she handed over all the manpower to Jia Lian and took her into the city.

Walking along the inner city wall, passing an old street and an official residence, it is the place where Jia Lian took office.

The carrier makes the yamen not big, and it looks as if it has not been renovated for a long time, and the former chief officer inside has been out of office for many days, and only one of the yamen adjutants from the seven-grade carrier envoy has taken the main book and other yamen adjutants to manage it.

Hearing that the new chief official was coming, the transport envoy was busy beckoning the yamen to come down and pay a visit.

Jia Lian had already changed the official mansion at the post station, and at this time, he entered the yamen and saw a subordinate official, and after recognizing the person, he took the two masters who brought them from Jia's house to check the accounts.

Jia Lian is in Kyoto, and he has been in the officialdom for a long time, so he didn't know that the first major thing in office was to prevent his predecessor from losing money.

Seeing this, the capital and the chief secretary of the yamen also went to the office and waited for the dispatch.

As for Sister Feng, after entering the yamen, she will do it, and arrange all the people she brought into the inner house of the yamen.

As soon as the salute is done, it must be placed, and the old utensils in the inner house should be thrown away, and they should be sold.

However, the number of people was only halfway in, and Sister Feng found a problem - the inner house was too small.

Not only the inner house, but also the realization of the entire transportation of the yamen up and down, with the rank of the capital, the main book, the inspection, plus the non-grade officials, the doorman, and the errand are all counted, there are only twenty or thirty people in total, less than the people brought by Sister Feng to serve.

The former carrier envoy was okay to live in Yamen, but Jia Lian's party couldn't live there.

This is still the team that has been light and simple at the beginning.

Sister Feng had no choice but to send Wang Laixi out, rent the house behind the envoy's yamen, and finally settle all the cadres.

Jia Lian checked dizzily in the front office for a long time, and only came to the back house at night.

Sister Feng taught Ping'er to help, and said: "This place is too small, and you have to call a craftsman to come and open up the back house, otherwise it will be difficult for others to come and serve." ”

Jia Lian just came to the back house to say hello, and nodded at this time: "Sister Feng is busy with her own work, and the deputy governor asked me to go to the prefect's yamen to meet me, and there is some truth in what I said, I have to go there." ”

Shaanzhou is the capital of the northwest state, and the local prefect is no worse than the general Taoist platform.

Although the Shaanxi East Fifth Road Carrier is an independent yamen, if he gets along too poorly with the prefect's yamen, it will be difficult to carry out affairs in office.

The capital asked Jia Lian to visit the prefect's yamen, and he also kindly reminded this Shangguan.

After all, Jia Lian's appearance is too young, and he doesn't look like a civil official with seniority.

Sister Feng smiled and quipped: "Aren't you a doctor from the middle of the third grade, and you are famous, and the prefect should come to visit you." ”

"A Woman's Opinion......"

Jia Lian muttered a few words, sleeved his hands and went out of the back office, and then specially picked up the official car that carried the envoy yamen, rushed to the prefect's yamen, and handed over the name of the post to pay a visit.

The prefect of Shaanzhou surnamed Jin, not young, well versed in the way of officials, this hour was already ready to sleep, heard that the new carrier envoy came to pay a visit, so he put his clothes together, and asked people to lead the guests to talk with the lamp.

It's just a matter in the city of Shaanzhou, and the Jin Governor's Mansion had inquired about Jia Lian's identity earlier, knowing that he was a serious son from the Guogong Mansion, and there was a series of official positions hanging on his body, so there was speculation that this person was here to gild.

After meeting, the prefect of Jin had the intention to show goodwill, and encouraged Jia Lian Haosheng by virtue of his status as an elder, and the guests and hosts were happy for a while.

On the way, according to Jia Lian's temperament, he couldn't help mentioning the incident and said: "... When inspecting the yamen of the carrier, the predecessor said that he had prepared money and grain and put it in the warehouse, and he was only waiting for someone to send it, and he didn't know when the prefect would be able to draw out the labor? ”

If there is no assistance from the prefect's yamen, it will be impossible to carry out all the work.

This is also the reason why as soon as Jia Lian took office, the metropolitan official talked about this matter.

Seeing that Jia Lian suddenly mentioned official business, Jin Zhifu yawned, and couldn't help but have the intention of sending off the guest, he smiled and said: "Lord Jia just send an official letter to the government office tomorrow morning, and you can do it after you collect it here. ”

The battle on the front line is in full swing, and the Jin Governor does not dare to delay, and he will be implicated if something goes wrong.

Jia Lian was overjoyed, hurriedly thanked him, and saw the look of the prefect of Jin, so he couldn't disturb the old man's rest anymore, so he gave up.

drove back to his yamen, Jia Lian entered the door and found that the deputy was waiting for him in the yamen.

When he heard that the prefect had promised to allocate conscripts to come over, the governor suddenly smiled and said: "The three transport envoys have sent the yamen, and the other two have been sent this month, but we haven't moved yet, so it's good now!" ”

Which three?

From west to east - Ping'an Zhou Carrier, Shaanxi East 5th Road Carrier, Yunzhou Carrier.

Jia Lian had already inquired about the bureaucratic situation here, and it was not surprising to hear that there were three transport envoys, but he just smacked his tongue secretly.

The front-line commander didn't know what to think, he had been fighting for several months, and there were three carriers to deliver supplies in an orderly manner, could it be that he was preparing to consume the grassland rebels?

It's just that he is not in his position and does not seek his own government, Jia Lian first arrived, and it was not easy to put the beak chief, so he only discussed with his deputy about traveling and transporting grain.
