Huang Zhongyin and Ji Yunfei knew that Han Xiufeng was tired and sleepy. They exchanged greetings at the same time and asked the old carpenter to quickly fetch water, urging Han Xiufeng to go in and take a shower first, and at the same time asked Manager Wen to call the chef he just found in the guild this year to cook quickly.

When Han Xiufeng took a shower and changed into clean clothes and returned to the flower hall, two plates of fried rice had already been set on the table. Manager Wen felt that it was not too late to steam the rice, so he was asking the chef to cook noodles. Gu Jinyan had never met the censor before, and was nervous and did not want to be rude. When the noodles were cooked and served, he simply picked up a few chopsticks and dishes and brought the bowl to the inner courtyard to eat.

Han Xiufeng was really hungry, and he just listened to Huang Zhongyin, Ji Yunfei and Ao Tongchen and other fellow villagers joked.

"There are not many people like you who are transferred to the Tongzheng Department of the South Bank of Yongding River to be the Chief Secretary for Discipline Inspection. We who are in Beijing can only survive slowly and have to pay attention to the "Nine-Turn Pills". You can go out of Beijing and make a Pills, so you don't have to endure the same hardship with us."

"Brother Bowen, don't make fun of me anymore. What am I a 'Pill'? I was transferred back to Beijing before and was still a 5th rank. The official salary was still so much, but the integrity silver was gone, and the expenses were too much. I even had to give rewards to the clerks, Zao Li and servants in the yamen. It was a bit of a loss." Han Xiufeng couldn't help but smile.

Ji Yunfei glared at him, and smiled enviously and cursed: "Can this fifth grade be the same as the previous fifth grade? Don't be in the blessings without knowing the blessings!"

"What's the difference?" Han Xiufeng asked knowingly.

Before Ji Yunfei could speak, Huguang Road Supervisor Huang Zhongyin said as he knew it: "In July of the first year, Luo Dunyan, then the then Tongzheng envoy Luo Dunyan, was released from the Fujian Provincial Examination, and in September of the first year, Wang Qingyun, deputy envoy of the Tongzheng Department, was moved to the Zhanshi Mansion. After Luo Dunyan came back from presiding over the Fujian Provincial Examination, he was promoted to the left deputy chief censor of our Censorate. Immediately after, Tongzheng envoy Het Hega, the deputy chief chief, was released from the Kuches office!"

"Brother Yong-ying, what you are talking about is either the Tongmai Department or the Deputy Envoy of the Tongmai Department, and I am just a senator."

"What's wrong with the Senate? The Senate's official fortune is as prosperous as it is!" Huang Zhongyin smiled and said with a smile: "In the first year of Xianfeng, the Manchu provincial examination was held, and the Minister of Revenue Yucheng was the main examiner, and the Tongzheng Department of the People's Republic of China was the deputy examiner; then the Emperor ordered the Tongzheng Department of the People's Republic of China to be the first guard and the Minister of Aksu to be the minister of service."

"You said these people are full."

"The same is true for Han officials. Your ex-girlator Qi Chengyan is now the Minister of the Honglu Temple. Even Zhuo Zhongtang has served as the Senate of the Tongzheng Department. Let's put it this way, as long as he has served as the Deputy Envoy and Senate of the Tongzheng Department, except for the Zachdan who is obsessed with Stories from a Chinese Studio, one of them has been almost all promoted." Huang Zhongyin was very happy for Han Xiufeng, and thought about it and smiled: "I won't talk about Zhixing, I will join the cabinet and become the prime minister. After all, it is not Hanlin who will not join the cabinet, but as long as I can join the Senate, I will definitely not be able to escape from the fourth rank."

Maybe he took a shower or had enough food and drink. Han Xiufeng was completely sleepy and put down his chopsticks and smiled: "I borrowed three auspicious words. If there was a day, I would definitely have to hold a drink to thank you."

"There is no need to wait until that day, you can have a drink now." Ao Tongchen laughed.

"Okay, isn't it just a drink? I'll count it tonight."

What surprised Han Xiufeng was that Huang Zhongyin suddenly changed his tone: "Zhixing, if you can be a senator, Wen Zhongtang and Lord Sushun have helped me a lot. If you look for Lord Peng, you will never be able to do this senator."

"Brother Yonggong, today is a happy day, why do you mention these?" Ji Yunfei said hurriedly.

Han Xiufeng couldn't help but ask: "Brother Yongfeng, have you heard any news?"

Huang Zhongyin felt that Han Si had become a Beijing official and could not know nothing about the affairs in the court. She put down the teacup and smiled bitterly: "There are strange things every year, and this year there are a lot. You may not believe it. Now, the Han people are the ones who are most valued. At the beginning of the year, Zeng Guofan had hope of being the governor, but because Qi Zhongtang said, "Zeng Mou was a common man in the neighborhood. When he called out, more than 10,000 people followed him, which may not be a blessing to the country." Later, the Jinggang army was defeated, and Zeng Guofan apologized for punishment. If it were not for Wen Zhongtang and Sushun Lord's efforts to protect it, it would definitely not be as simple as dismissal."

Han Xiufeng did not expect that Qi Shuzao, the brother of the late Jiangning governor, would ruin Zeng Guofan's incident, and pondered: "Didn't Qi Zhongtang be sick?"

"I've been returning home after I was sick, but the old man has heart disease."

Han Xiufeng realized that Qi Yuzao was very angry because the Han people did not help the Han people, and thought about it and asked again: "Brother Yongqing, even though Qi Zhongtang was sick and returned to his hometown, there were still many adults in the court who were shamed for Han officials to be valued?"

"It's true, and they are all high-ranking and powerful," Huang Zhongyin sighed softly and smiled bitterly: "If you think about it carefully, you can't blame them. After all, the bigger the officials, the more cautious they should be, and the more they should avoid suspicion. Only in this way can they demonstrate their loyalty to the emperor and the court."

"Who are they?"

Huang Zhongyin looked up at the door and saw that there was no outsider. Then she said helplessly: "After Qi Zhongtang told his illness and returned to his hometown, those people followed Peng, Zhou and Weng. Although Jia didn't say anything about Zeng Guofan, he could see that his old man's idea was similar to Qi Peng, Zhou and Weng."

Thinking that Peng Yunzhang's expression was not right when he met in the morning, and thinking about what Huang Zhongyin said about Jia, Zhou, Weng should be Jia Zhen, a Grand Secretary and a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, Zhou Zupei, a Grand Secretary in charge of the affairs of the Sanku Affairs and the Ministry of Justice, and Wen Xincun, a Minister of Personnel, Han Xiufeng realized that in the future, he could only rely on Sushun and Wen Qing, who had just met in the morning.

Ji Yunfei didn't know what the emperor was doing to transfer Han Xiufeng to Beijing, nor did he know that Han Xiufeng would often come to the palace to meet the saint in the future. He felt that the disputes in the court should have no effect on him, such a fifth-rank senator, and said as if nothing had happened: "Jingxing, you can only know these things in your mind. Lord Peng should go to pay a visit. If it weren't for his support, how could you be as good as the Tongzhi on the south bank of Yongding River, let alone the meeting."

"I understand, I'll go to pay a visit after I finish my work."

"Why have to wait until you finish your work?"

"Brother Bowen, I really can't get away," Han Xiufeng explained again, for fear that Ji Yunfei would misunderstand, "I met Lord Peng in the morning when I met the Holy Lord. He knew what I was busy with. He wouldn't be unhappy when I went to see him later."

"Zhixing, what are you busy with? What's the matter with Tongzhengsi?" Ao Tongchen asked in confusion.

"I can't say it," Han Xiufeng scratched his neck and smiled helplessly: "I'm not pretending to be mysterious, nor am I unable to believe in three people, but I really can't say it."

I met Wu Zhaoling in the morning, and Wu Zhaoling was also concerned about him. Huang Zhongyin realized that Han Xiufeng was indeed indescribable and immediately waved his hand: "If you can't say it, don't say it. Whether you were the Tongzhi on the south bank of Yongding River before, or now you are the Tongzheng Department of the Tongzheng Department, aren't they all serving the court or the emperor?"

Ao Tongchen reacted and quickly laughed: "Yes, yes, since we can't say it, we won't ask again."

Han Xiufeng didn't know how to apologize to the three fellow villagers. An old friend who was too familiar to be no longer familiar to the world walked around the etiquette gate and walked into the yard. When he saw Han Xiufeng and others sitting in the flower hall, he trotted forward and hit Qian'er: "The Fourth Master Jixiang, Mr. Huang, Mr. Ji, Mr. Ao, Mr. Ao, Mr. Fugui is late, please forgive me!"

"Who am I talking about? It turns out to be an old neighbor." Ji Yunfei didn't know that Fugui was called by Han Xiufeng when he asked Xiaoshandong to call him, and looked at him with a smile and asked, "Master Fu, how did you know that Zhixing returned to Beijing? You are so well-informed."

I went to Yangzhou for more than a year, but I didn't make a penny, but I paid a few hundred taels of wealth. I bowed and smiled flatteringly: "Master Ji is really good at joking. I don't have any news. If the Fourth Master hadn't sent Xiao Shandong to spread the message, I wouldn't know that the Fourth Master not only returned to Beijing but also became the Senate of the Tongzheng Department."

"Is that true?" Ji Yunfei turned around and asked.

Han Xiufeng stood up and smiled and said, "I asked Xiaoshandong to invite him."

"Second Master, is there something wrong with asking Xiaoshandong to call me? If you have something to do, just speak up. As long as I am rich and powerful, I will never refuse!"

"There is indeed something to discuss with you," Han Xiufeng bowed and replied, then turned around and said embarrassedly: "Brother Yongfeng, Brother Bowen, why don't you and Brother Jinfu talk first, and I will say a few words to you and Mr. Fu?"

I just asked what I was busy with. Now I have to avoid talking to Fugui. It made me feel funny. Huang Zhongyin felt a little funny and simply raised her finger and pointed to the door leading to the backyard: "You are busy with yours, don't worry about us."

"I'll go back."

Han Xiufeng bowed to apologize and then led Fugui into the backyard.

After waiting for about two incense sticks, the two came out. Fugui was happy and kept bowing to thank him. Huang Zhongyin, Ji Yunfei and Ao Tongchen were stunned and wondering what the good thing was. Cui Hao, who had worked in the Heying, came. Han Xiufeng apologized again with embarrassment, and led Cui Hao into the backyard in a daze.

"It's obviously just a senator from the Tongzheng Department, but it's like a military minister." Ji Yunfei shook his head and smiled.

Thinking of Han Si summoning the emperor when he returned to Beijing, Ao Tongchen couldn't help but smile and said, "Brother Bowen, I guess the Minister of Military Affairs will not be able to do anything in this life, but it is not impossible to walk on the Military Affairs Office."

Ji Yunfei was about to speak when several uninvited guests came.

Yongxiang led Wang Guisheng and Zhou Changchun to the two Ba County children. Thinking that Yongxiang is different from the past, he is now in charge of the defense of the Nancheng and the guerrillas in charge of the Nancheng security. Ji Yunfei and Ao Tongchen quickly stood up to greet him.
