Chapter 283 No matter how insidious it is, it has to be used!
Xu Ying slept very late and got up very early.
I originally planned to ask the Yangzhou news first, and then listen to the opinions of several friends. Unexpectedly, I drank a bowl of lotus seeds and tremium soup and walked into the signing room. The door came to report that the salt merchant Xu Lequn he met when he was persuading donations yesterday. It was in the dark that he actually went to the yamen to listen to it. If it weren't for the friend's reminder, Xu Ying wouldn't remember that the person named Xu said yesterday afternoon that he wanted to do his best to defend the city.
Xu Ying thought that the salt merchant had money, and the person named Xu was obviously recommended by the salt merchant in the city, so he decided to see him first. Unexpectedly, this meeting lasted for nearly two or two minutes. If it weren't for the reminder of Mr. Hu, a friend sitting on the side, Xu Ying would have almost forgot to report it.
"Brother Xu is a talented person, I really wish I had met too late! Brother Xu is so wise and the court is working on people. How can I not give me a chance to serve the court? If you do other talented people, I will have to help me with the camp from today on, and specifically raise food and money for the newly agreed township camp."
"Thank you Mr. Xu to help me, and Xu will never let you down. As the saying goes, before the troops move, food and grass will go first. If the village bravely manages food and food, please ask Mr. Xu to ask Xu to ask him!"
"Okay, I'll be relieved if I have my brother." Xu Ying weighed the pros and cons, then turned around and said, "Mr. Hu, I can't let Brother Xu take office like this. Please write a document for the commission. When the young and strong yamen runners from Xinghua, Dongtai and other counties arrive, I'll help Brother Xu to pick a few honest and reliable entourages."
"Okay, I'll plan right away."
Xu Lequn got what he wanted and hurriedly bowed: "Thank you Mr. Xu to trust, you must devote yourself to your entire life until you die."
While sending him out, Xu Ying smiled and said, "Why did Brother Xu say this? Although I am willing to die, I dare not die, and I cannot die! If I die, what should I do in Taizhou? What should I do if there are so many people in the city? So I must live well and not die either."
"It is really a blessing for Taizhou to have Mr. Xu in charge. Please allow a certain person to worship the people of Taizhou."
"Eating the king's fortune and sharing the worries of the king. Maintaining the land and water and protecting the safety of the neighboring country is the matter of my official. Why don't Brother Xu talk about thanking me? If you want to thank me, I will thank Brother Xu on behalf of the people of Taizhou." Xu Ying had no time to make courtesy with Xu Lequn and sent him to the door to bow: "I have some official duties, so please help me to go to the front yamen to wait for a while."
"I didn't expect that I would disturb Mr. Xu for so long, and Xu took his leave."
As soon as Xu Lequn walked out of the second hall, Master Hu reminded: "Dongweng, this person is vicious and cruel, but you must be careful!"
Xu Ying closed the door and said coldly: "A shameless villain, but no one is available now. I finally met someone who came to the door. No matter how vicious he was, he had to use it."
"Yes," Master Hu nodded, and thought about it and said, "Dongweng, he recommended you so many ideas to prevent Han Zhixing. How much hatred does this have to do with Han Zhixing?"
"Maybe he is irreconcilable with Zhang Zhigao, or he may want to kill Li Changjing and kill him. But these are not important. As long as he can train a battalion of township warriors before the bandits and bandits come to the city, as long as this battalion can bring this battalion of township warriors to defend the city, even if he is an incognito prisoner of the court, he must use it!"
“That’s true.”
...
After Han Xiufeng finished the breakfast that Pan Er bought on the street, he rushed to the gate of the state yamen. He saw that there were several more horses in front of the general shop in the southeast of the state yamen.
There were more soldiers from the Pusi than before. Some were wiping the horses with hay and they knew at a glance that the horse had run a long way. Some soldiers from the Pusi were panting and sat on the ground. Two of them were sleeping leaning against the wall, snoring.
There were dozens of yamen runners in front of the yamen. Some looked around and some whispered, but no one dared to speak loudly. Without asking, they knew that they should have been transferred from other places and were waiting for the order of Xu Laogui.
Han Xiufeng asked Pan Er and others to go to the general shop to wait, and asked if there was any news about Yangzhou and Jiangning. Then he greeted the door he had seen at night and walked into the yamen in his official uniform.
When I came in, I was shocked.
There were forty or fifty civil and military officials on standby in the yard, and one was kneeling at the door of the lobby.
Just as he didn't know if he should ask Xu Laogui's family to inform him, Xu Lequn actually squeezed through the cracks and looked at him with a smile and bowed: "Master Han, I didn't expect that after Hai'an parted, we will meet again so soon."
"Mr. Xu, why have you come to Taizhou too?" Han Xiufeng asked in surprise.
"Master Han, you said that you, Mr. Zhang, and Mr. Li Xiucai are both in Taizhou, how could Xu not come?" Xu Lequn asked meaningfully, then turned around and said, "The one who was kneeling does not recognize him. He is the Ningxiang inspector. Mr. Xu summoned him yesterday, and he didn't come to see him until today. He probably can't do this inspector!"
"How did he delay it until this time?" Han Xiufeng asked absent-mindedly.
"I guess I thought I would come as soon as I received the official documents. When I arrived in Taizhou, it was already dark and I couldn't meet at night."
"Who are those?"
"Those guys..." Xu Lequn raised his feet and looked at it, and introduced it carefully: "The old man who couldn't stand firmly is the experience of the Yunsi Yamen, and the one who yawned was Mr. Yang, the Taiba Supervisor. You must recognize Li Chang. The people beside him were all alternate officials waiting for the trial of the Commission in Taizhou."
Following Xu Lequn's gaze, Han Xiufeng indeed saw the alchemy.
Just as he was thinking about whether to go up and say hello, Xu Lequn said again: "That fat man is Zhang Shoujie of the garrison battalion. The Qianzheng, the Qianzheng, the Qianzheng, the Qianzheng, the extra-commissioned general and the extra-commissioned general and the extra-commissioned general and the extra-commissioned general and the extra-commissioned general and the general."
Han Xiufeng asked in confusion: "Didn't Li Changjing and Zhang Shoubei be dismissed? Why did you come to the yamen to click Mao?"
Xu Lequn turned around and said, "Li Changjing was dismissed. Zhang Shoubei was not only dismissed, but also got beaten. But even if he was dismissed, he would come to wait for the dispatch even if he had just been dismissed."
"Mr. Xu, what about you?" Han Xiufeng asked with a smile.
"What am I?"
"Why are you here?"
"Let's wait for Mr. Xu to send him a Ministry of Revenue from his arms, and said with a smile: "Mr. Han doesn't know that Xu also donated an official position, but he donated it in Yangzhou. I didn't expect that donating officials is so cheap and easy now. You can donate a fifth rank in less than two thousand taels, and you can get a license as soon as you pay the bank."
"Fifth grade, congratulations!"
"It made Mr. Han laugh. Xu, the fifth-rank official, is just a false title. If you want to be an official, you have to go to the capital. Not only do you have to spend money to go to the road, but it is said that you also have to make up for the discount of more than 6,000 taels before you can get the documents from the Ministry of Revenue and go to the Ministry of Personnel to submit your offer. You must not compare with Mr. Han."
Han Xiufeng thought to himself that you knew, don’t think that if you spend more than 1,900 taels of silver to donate a fifth-ranked official, you will be considered an official.
