Chapter 218: Honest Officials (2)
Zhang Guangcheng wondered, but looked at the time and date on the manifesto and kindly reminded Han Xiufeng that he would set off from Taizhou on the afternoon of the 18th and that it would take as long as 18 days to arrive at Hai'an. He felt that it was not good to take office in the middle of the night, so he suggested staying in Baimi Town on the 18th and going to Hai'an on the early 19th day of the 19th day.
This is an negligence. Han Xiufeng was so kind that he simply rewritten a copy.
When Han Xiufeng put a private seal on the manifesto, and when the ink of the manifesto was completely dried up, Zhang Guangcheng helped fold it and stuffed it into a kraft paper bag, asking his family to call the shopkeeper. In front of Han Xiufeng, he handed the bag containing the manifesto to the shopkeeper and asked the shopkeeper to send it to Hai'an immediately.
...
Others were eager to make up for the gap, but Fang Shimei waited for four or five days and didn't wait for the new inspection. She was wondering if the person surnamed Han thought the official was small, or if Hai'an was too remote and unwilling to come. As a result, the new inspection did not arrive, but the new inspection was inaugurated first!
"Mr. Han has already arrived in Taizhou, why do you have to wait two days before taking office?" Fang Shijun stood beside him and couldn't help asking.
"The little one knows these things, the little one only knows to send the letter."
"Have you seen Mr. Han?"
"See."
"Has Mr. Han said anything?"
The shop Ding thought for a while and hurriedly said, "Xiao I almost forgot. After Master Han asked Xiao I to send the letter to him, and then asked Mr. Fang to summon the Zaoli archers of the Book Office and ask the Book Office to give them the faith. After reading it, let them remember it, and let them ring the gong to inform all kinds of people in the town. Master Han also asked him to post the letter outside the yamen after reading it."
This is the first time that such an official has seen him.
Fang Shimei looked at the manifesto and couldn't figure out what the new inspector was about to take office, whether he wanted to make a fortune or really wanted to be a clean official.
"Master Fang, the young man traveled all night. Now the letter has been delivered, and Mr. Han's words have also been passed. Why don't you go to the inn to rest first?"
"Go."
After sending the shop to the shop, Fang Shijun couldn't help asking: "Brother, what does Han's surname mean?"
Fang Shijun put down the manifesto and sneered: "What else can it mean? I'm afraid that others will not know that he is coming to Hai'an to take office, so I want to show my authority."
"Will you summon Zaoli bowmen?"
"If we go back to Jiangning directly after we step down, we will naturally ignore him. But we don't plan to go back to Jiangning. We will deal with him in the future. Even if we don't deal with him, we will meet him. Let's do what he said, so as not to be embarrassed to see him in the future."
"Okay, I'll go and call them."
...
Hai'an Town is very small, with only five north-south alleys less than two miles away, Xisi Lane, Zhongbakou, Pushou Lane, Chenghuang Temple Lane and Meijia Lane. They are all on the edge of Yunyan River. There are several families between each alley and the alley.
Su Jueming had just returned from the Hu family after his relatives, and was sitting with Yu Youfu in the main hall of his uncle's house not far from the City God Temple having a drink with his two cousins when he suddenly heard the sound of a "bang bang" gong coming from outside.
The big cousin felt strange and subconsciously put down his chopsticks and said, "It's not daytime, don't beat the update, why not beat the gong!"
"Whose child is knocking and playing with it?" said the second cousin holding the cup.
Hai'an's words are difficult to understand, and they are different from Yi's truth. Yu Youfu didn't know what they said, but guessed that Siwazi should be coming soon, so he looked back at the door and smiled inadvertently.
Su Jueming reacted and was about to speak, when Zaoli's loud voice came from outside: "The Ministry of Personnel selected Han Shi, the commander of the Hai'an inspector, and the Magna Constitution Commission, to be in charge of the Hai'an inspection. He will take office on the 19th day of the 12th lunar month. For this, Yanghe Ya's letter servants and others learned that they were about to take office and should know the etiquette and make a concise and clear book for review. The government office only needs to clean and clean, and do not have to put lights and decorate some extravagance..."
My cousin is a oil mill who only recognizes a few words and can only settle accounts. He can't help but ask, "Jueming, what are the people in the yamen talking about?"
"It is said that the inspector who was selected by the Ministry of Personnel to take office on the 19th, and this inspector was honest and honest. He was afraid that the sectarians and yamen runners in the yamen would mobilize them and not allow them to greet them, nor were they allowed to take this opportunity to disturb the people, and were worried that they would rob them indiscriminately." Su Jueming became more and more excited as he thought about it. As he spoke, he couldn't help looking at Yu Youfu.
"I am not allowed to welcome you, and I am not allowed to levy people to disturb you. Is it true or false?" My second cousin was skeptical.
"Of course it's true. Mr. Han said the truth and said he would not give in, so he would not give in."
"Jueming, do you recognize Mr. Han?"
"Where can I recognize it?"
"How can you know that the master who is going to take office has the surname Han?"
"Don't you say anything about the people in the yamen? The Ministry of Personnel selected Han Shi to serve as the Hai'an inspector. Han Shi means that Mr. Han Shi means."
"That's strange. Could it be that our Hai'an really wants to come to Master Qingtian?" Thinking of what happened a few days ago, the second cousin put down his chopsticks and said hatefully: "I said that Fang's surname was just getting his birthday last month. Why did he get his birthday a few days ago? It turned out that he knew that the new inspection was coming. He couldn't be a few days old and wanted to make another fortune before leaving!"
"Damn it, I've been fooled! I've known that he, the inspector, won't be able to do it for a few days, so I won't go to eat his old man's birthday wine." My cousin also realized that he was fooled, put down his cup and cursed gritting his teeth.
"What kind of longevity wine? I don't know how much water was mixed in that wine."
"My cousin, let's not talk about this, let's talk about Wang Ertou. Has he married a wife and always caused trouble like before?" Mr. Han will take office tomorrow and will establish his authority as soon as he takes office. Su Jueming dares not delay Mr. Han, and immediately returns to the previous topic.
"Dogs can't change their shit, but he's still like that. Where can people like him get married?" The cousin picked up a piece of pork head meat and then said, "I heard from the Benjiaji that he didn't know where he stole a fishing net, nor did he stole a fish (local dialect, catch fish). He just sprinkled the net in the river, and hid on the shore, waiting for the boat to pass by. Regardless of whether the boat was scratched or not, whether the oars were inserted into the fishing net, anyway, as long as the boat passed by, he would stop the person and not let him go, and falsely accused him of breaking his fishing net, and he would have to pay the money."
"He is too boring to get a net worth a few dollars, he's too boring!"
"So I can't marry a wife."
"Where is Chen San from Jiaogang, how is Chen San now?"
"Chen San is not much better. He will go wherever there is a temple fair. He cheated him. Last month, he had a fight with his neighbors for a trivial matter. If his sister and brother-in-law had not begged others in a low voice, they would have really brought him to the town to meet the officials." The cousin said the more he felt something was wrong. He put down his chopsticks and stared at him and asked, "Jueming, why do you always ask these debt-loving labao (people who don't learn well)? You are different from them. You have studied, can write, and be able to speak, and you can't mess with them all day long."
