The next day, Xie Xiuwen was still on duty and was hurriedly summoned into the imperial study.

"Xie Aiqing, I want to send you to Xiangzhou Mansion to investigate the case, are you willing to go?"

In addition to showing loyalty, what else can Xie Xiuwen do?

"The faith of the saint is really the luck of the ministers. Wechen will definitely try his best to find out the truth and live up to the grace of God. ”

Emperor Wen Jing likes to listen to this kind of simple words, which is much more comfortable than the refusal of those old guys.

"Well, since you have the guts, I won't wronged you. Come on, proclaim. ”

When Xie Xiuwen heard this, he immediately took his robe and knelt on the ground, and the Zhongshu people on the side began to announce the decree.

"Today, Xie Xiuwen is the Zuo Cheng of Shangshu Province, and tomorrow I will go to Xiangzhou Mansion to find out the case of 'impersonation', and I will give him the right to act cheaply, and I will do this."

Xie Xiuwen hurriedly thanked him for receiving the order.

In this way, the Xiangzhou Mansion and his party are already a certainty.

Xie Xiuwen was promoted to Shangshu Zuocheng, that is, an official of the fourth grade, in the capital, for the official ability to reach the fourth grade, he dared to truly claim to be an official.

In other words, among the Beijing officials, these four-rank officials are only about to be a beginning, and the higher they go, the more difficult it is to rise to this official position.

And Xie Xiuwen has only been in the company for five years, and he has been promoted several levels in a row, and it is difficult not to be discussed.

However, Xie Xiuwen has real merits, so even if someone talks about it, it can't be said that he relied on other connections to get to the top.

And it is obvious that the Holy God believes in him.

The Dazhi Dynasty now implements a three-province and six-ministry official system, which are Zhongshu Province, Menxia Province, and Shangshu Province.

Shang Shu Ling is the second grade, and then down is the left and right servants, which is the official from the second grade, and then below, it is the left and right of Shangshu.

The Dazhi Dynasty respects the left, so the status of Zuo Cheng is higher, belonging to the four products, while the right side of Shangshu is under the four products.

Shangshu Zuocheng, this position is really powerful, not only to deal with some newspapers from all over the country, but also to identify the etiquette of the six hundred officials, correct the mistakes of the province, and impeach the power of the imperial history.

The copywriting of the six departments must be sent to the capital province for inspection by the left and right sides before it reaches the relevant yamen.

Because it is stipulated that there is a major event in Shangshu Province, he will ask the servant for instructions, and the rest of the details will be handled by the left and right.

After a long time, the left and right servants were gradually hollowed out, and the real power of Shangshu Province naturally fell into the hands of the left and right Cheng, so the left and right Cheng were also one of the consuls.

As for Shang Shuling, that is, the prime minister, he generally doesn't bother with some trivial matters, and the focus of Shang Shuling's work is generally in the political hall.

Because the workflow of the three provinces is more cumbersome, the approval process is often rejected and resubmitted for approval, and the process is more troublesome, so the "government affairs hall" was later set up.

The rulers of the three provinces discuss military affairs here, and those who can be called cabinet elders are basically in the political affairs hall.

However, Xie Xiuwen, a scholar Zuo Cheng with real power, had to go to Xiangzhou Mansion before he could move the duty house first.

In fact, some old ministers were also expected of Xie Xiuwen's promotion.

After all, after Xie Xiuwen made meritorious service again last year, they thought that the Holy Lord would promote him.

But I didn't expect that the saint only rewarded a lot of things, and did not say a word about promoting the official.

Now that he is promoted first and then he does things, it is a bit like Emperor Wen Jingdi's style of acting.

There is no way, as far as Xie Xiuwen's previous identity is concerned, it is indeed not suitable to investigate the case of 'impersonation'.

And Shangshu Zuocheng's identity is different, not to mention that this grade is high, just to say that Shangshu Province has six departments, which is enough to show his importance.

Moreover, the DPRK and China sent such officials to investigate the case, which can also show that the imperial court attaches great importance to this matter, and it also has a certain pacification effect on those students.

Xie Xiuwen wants to go to Xiangzhou Mansion, so he naturally has to bring enough people.

The DPRK assigned to escort him all the way, and to cooperate with him in handling the case, as well as Feng Shu, the lieutenant general of the Yulin Army.

The two of them are also familiar with each other, after all, they had gone to Taiyuan Mansion together on an errand before.

Feng Shu brought fifty people with him on this trip, mainly to protect Xie Xiuwen along the way and listen to his dispatch.

In addition, Xie Xiuwen also brought six people from his own nursing home, and he was also full of security along the way.

The people who are now used by Xie Xiuwen's side, in addition to Douzi and Chen Shuang, there are also two nursing homes, named Li Shan and Li Si, who are brothers.

In fact, Li Shan and Li Si did not have big names in the first place, and they had always been written on the household registration as Li San and Li Si.

Later, the two brothers joined the army, and they were still renamed by the hundred households in the barracks.

The two brothers later retired from the army, and when the imperial court arranged for Xie Xiuwen to take a strength class, they transferred the two brothers over.

Li Shan and Li Si are all from the imperial court, but the Xie family is benevolent, in addition to being treated well in food and housing, there will be an additional two taels of wine money every month.

In fact, the power classes in various provinces will basically have such a reward, but the amount is uncertain.

As an ordinary nursing home, you can get a reward of two taels a month, which is already a lot.

If the guards in the homes of those high-ranking officials often help their masters clean up the aftermath, they will naturally get more rewards, but this money is not so easy to get.

First of all, you have to be someone who the master trusts, otherwise, he will definitely not use you to sweep the tail.

Generally speaking, the power classes arranged by the imperial court are only responsible for some ordinary errands, so the really hard and beneficial work will not be their turn.

Li Shan is different from Li Si, the two brothers are originally sincere and willing to contribute, and Xie Xiuwen's family does not have juniors who provoke right and wrong, so they never need to do something unseemly.

Xie Xiuwen has only one request for them, that is, to try his best to protect the safety of his family.

The two brothers have been working at Xie's house for almost three years, and they also have a lot of admiration for Lord Xie and Mrs. Xie.

Xie Rongzhao watched the carriage drift away, and while he was in a low mood, he noticed the more worried Ah Niang, so he kept brainwashing himself and couldn't act too sad.

Xie Xiuwen knows the danger of this trip, but for the sake of his future and his family, he also has to fight hard.

Ten miles outside the city, Xie Lin and Wang Qinshan have prepared thin wine to wait.

Xie Xiuwen had expected that Xie Lin would come here to see him off, but he didn't expect Wang Shangshu to be there.

"Lord Wang, how dare you send it away."

Wang Qinshan said with a displeased face: "If you are not in the court, why do you still call me Lord Wang?" ”

Xie Xiuwen choked, and then said helplessly: "Uncle forgive me." ”

Xie Lin saw that Xie Xiuwen was deflated, and he was naturally in a very good mood: "I can see that Brother Zicheng is helpless." ”

Xie Xiuwen glanced at him helplessly, "You are gloating!" ”

Wang Qinshan on the side said unhappily: "You don't want to see Uncle Shi like this? ”

Xie Xiuwen confessed again and again, but he didn't dare to talk nonsense anymore.

Wang Qinshan helped him up: "I am only afraid of the danger when I go to Xiangzhou Mansion, you can take this letter, Sima of Xiangzhou Governor's Mansion once had a friendship with me, and when I encounter danger, I can seek refuge from him." ”
