Shi Zanqing and Wang Qianli not only came to reimburse the river work payments from Yongding River Dock Office this year, but also came to submit the budget to apply for the next year's Heilongjiang Bank. These things should have been handled by the River Dock in person, but Wu Tingdong is not only the river dock, but also the acting inspector of Zhili, so it fell on Shi Zanqing.

Thinking that it was not easy to reimburse or apply for money, and thinking about the two strings of court beads I just collected today, Han Xiufeng helped write an invitation, and together with the name post, asked Xiaoshandong to find Ronglu, and invited Ronglu to the Chongqing Guild Hall to have a drink in the evening. He also asked Yu Youfu to accompany Wang Qianli to Nanying to find Yongxiang, and called Yongxiang to go to the Chongqing Guild Hall to accompany him at night. After all, he was also a person from the Yongding River Dock Yamen. He could not sit idly by the river Dock Yamen when encountering difficult things.

After Han Xiufeng made all arrangements, Shi Zanqing couldn't help asking: "Zhixing, as far as I know, Ronglu was only eighteen or nineteen years old. Although he relied on his father to be the head of the Ministry of Works, he was too young after all. He seemed to be unable to say anything or make any decisions in the Ministry of Works."

"If it were something else, he would probably not be able to help, but it would be appropriate for him to reimburse him."

"You mean he is more convenient to talk to those clerks than others?"

"Uncle Shi, this account is difficult to reimburse. Isn't it impossible for those clerks to want money? It's impossible to give them no money, so I can only ask someone to bargain with them and give as little as possible. And if you bargain with a group of clerks, do you think it's appropriate to ask those doctors who are from Jinshi to come forward, or to ask Ronglu to come forward?"

Shi Zanqing reacted: "He is neither from a Jinshi nor a young man, and he is still a bannerman. It is more appropriate to ask him to come forward than to ask others to come forward."

"So no matter what you do, you have to find the right person first."

...

As Shi Zanqing said, Ronglu, who had been in charge of the emperor for less than two years, had not been in charge of anything in the Ministry of Works because he had "no hair on his lips". At first, he came to the yamen every day, but now he came every few days. If it weren't for the immediate boss of Guaerjia, Wen Xiang, who had just been promoted from chief to chief, this year, was a good person, he wouldn't bother to come. Anyway, no one would care or ask if he didn't come.

He didn't expect that it was a coincidence today. He walked around the yamen and greeted his colleagues. He was about to talk to Wenxiang and then went back. The concierge came to report that someone asked for a meeting.

It was the first time he was asked to see him in the yamen. When he walked to the door, he took the famous post from Xiao Shandong who looked familiar, and couldn't help but smile and said, "Go back to your master, I'll be there tonight."

"Mr. Xie Rong's honor." Xiao Shandong bowed and said respectfully: "Master Rong, my master has prepared a car for you, so that the young man will wait here, and the young man will wait for you to leave."

"Your master is very thoughtful, so wait here. I'll go with you after I finish my work."

"Master Xie Rong."

Thinking of his superior's family being poor and the Ministry of Works is a clean yamen. Even if there is a little bit of oil, it is not his official waiter. Ronglu walked into the yamen and quickly came to Wenxiang's public room. He bowed and asked, "Brother Bochuan, have you finished your work? Let's have a drink after you finish your work."

"Who am I talking about? It turns out it is Zhonghua. Why are you free to come today?"

"Brother Bochuan, are you kidding me or scolding me?"

Among so many colleagues in the Ministry of Works, Wen Xiang and Ronglu are closest and have the best relationship. First, although Ronglu is young, he is not arrogant and never gets involved in the intrigues and fights for power and profit in the yamen; second, Ronglu has a wealthy family, is generous and generous. Not only do he often invite him to drink, but he also changes his way to help him when he encounters trouble at home.

Because of this, Wen Xiang, who had just been promoted to Yuanwailang, never regarded Ronglu as a subordinate, but as a younger brother of the same clan. He put down his pen and smiled: "I'm not kidding. I just said that I'm having a drink. What's the joy of having fun today? Where do I plan to eat wine?"

"There is one of the happy events, but it's not mine, but a friend's, who will be the boss today."

"Friend, do I recognize it?"

"You may not recognize it, but you must have heard of it."

"who?"

Ronglu looked back and smiled proudly, "The new Senator of Tongzheng Department, Han Xiufeng."

Wen Xiang was stunned and asked in surprise: "Zhonghua, aren't you joking?"

"Why am I joking?"

"You recognize Han Xiufeng, and you still have a friendship with him, or a friend?"

"I recognize it, I have some friendship, what's wrong?"

Wen Xiang felt that this was not a trivial matter, so he immediately got up and walked around the case and took it to the door, turning back and said, "Zhonghua, do you know who he is? Does Xiao know how many people are disliked by him now and want to impeach him?"

Rong Lu was happy and couldn't help but smile and said, "Brother Bochuan, are you talking about Sushun?"

"Since you know why you are still so close to him!"

"Brother Bochuan, things are not what you think. The rumors spread outside are all spreading." Ronglu smiled and explained patiently: "Those people outside, including many colleagues in our Ministry of Works, think Han Xiufeng is Sushun's person. Actually, it's not. Let's say that, when I met Han Xiufeng, Sushun didn't recognize him or even heard of Han Xiufeng!"

"Not at that time, now!" Fearing that Ronglu was not careful in making friends, Wen Xiang reminded again: "If Sushun hadn't helped to speak nice things in front of the emperor, Han Xiufeng, a donor-generated person, would he be transferred to the Tongzhengsi Senate, and why would he walk on the military machine and the extra walk!"

"Brother Bochuan, believe me, he was not Sushun's person at that time, nor was he now." Ronglu pulled Wenxiang down and said with a smile: "Yongxiang, do you still remember that he just became the guard of the guerrilla warrior in the South Camp. He had come to find you before and went to my house to find me. He wanted to do a better job, but I could not help him. Later, I heard that he could only go to Heying to work as a ministry. The emperor ordered Han Xiufeng to rectify the Heying, so he asked me to find Han Xiufeng and ask Han Xiufeng for care."

"Yongxiang, I remembered it, what happened later?"

"Later, he went to Gu'an to train troops with Han Xiufeng. At the beginning, he was short of money and food. The emperor seemed to ask Sushun to help Heying raise some food and food. As a result, the Heying was targeted by Sushun. He planted people in Heying every few days and treated Heying as his private army. You know what happened later. The 1,500 soldiers were broken up like this."

"You mean Han Xiufeng could have led his troops to make achievements, but because Su Shun made a fuss, he lost his troops?"

"It's almost the same, but as far as I know, the emperor did not plan to wait for the soldiers to train and let him lead the He Camp to quell the rebellion, but instead planned to let him and Yongxiang lead the He Camp to guard Gu'an and guard the capital. Besides, Han Xiufeng was already a fifth-ranked rank before becoming the Tongzhengsi, so he was in the heart of the emperor. Yongxiang knew the best of these things. The emperor gave him a lot of military books, and they were also military books that the prince had read when he was a prince. Han Xiufeng learned it carefully, and Han Xiufeng handed over his homework to the emperor almost every month."

"So the Emperor and Han Xiufeng are really teachers and students, so he did not call him a disciple of the emperor?"

"Someone impeached him?"

"you do not know?"

"How could I know this."

Wen Xiang couldn't help laughing and said, "Since you have a friendship with him, how could you not even know about this? It has spread outside. Many people have impeached him in the past two days. It is said that the emperor has ordered the Military Machinery Department to investigate and deal with it. If I hadn't heard what you said, I really thought he would not have been able to do this for a few days."

Ronglu asked with a smile: "Impossessed him to call him a disciple of the emperor?"

"It is not only impeached him as a disciple of the emperor, but also said that he condoned his subordinates to marry a widow and impeached him for being unfair."

"I'm not sure that this crime of the Emperor's disciple will definitely not impeach him. As for the injustice, I guess there must be a reason. Besides, he has already made a 'little military aircraft', and the emperor ordered the Military Service Department to investigate and deal with it, rather than the Ministry of Justice or the Censorate. It can be seen that the emperor has never thought about what to do. The reason why he issued an order to investigate and deal with it is to use it to make those who dislike him calm down." Ronglu paused and asked back: "Brother Bochuan, think about it again, although Han Xiufeng's official position is not very high, he has been impeached many times over the past year, and it was all in vain."

"In this way, he is really a holy soldier!"

"It's enviable to think about it, but he can do everything he can today. He fought with his private lords in his inspection office, and was appointed as Taizhou Prefecture and fought with Changmao at the same time. He was ordered to go to Shanghai to handle grain at the deputy director of the two Huaihe Rivers. He fought with the Tiandihui Rebellion and the Tiandihui Rebellion. He also fought with the Tiandihui Rebellion. He was honest and honest, and he was able to be simple in the emperor's heart.

After hearing Ronglu's explanation, Wen Xiang couldn't help asking: "Since he is not Sushun's person, who is he?"

"The Emperor's man!"

"I mean before he was appointed Tongzhi on the south bank of Yongding River. Zhonghua, as far as I know, he was only twenty-four or five years old. Think about it. If it weren't for someone's support, could he, a Han official from a donor, become a fifth-rank Tongzhi in just three or four years?"

Ronglu raised his arm and pointed to the lobby with a smile.

Wen Xiang asked in surprise: "Mr. Peng?"

"What do you do? He can be the Tongzhi of the South Bank of Yongding River, which is recommended by Lord Peng." Ronglu smiled and then said, "As for the support of both himself and his fellow villagers before, Duan Dazhang, former Gansu governor Duan Dazhang, you must have heard that Han Xiufeng is Duan Dazhang's nephew, and Guo Peilin, who served as the salt transport envoy of Lianghuai and the salt road of Huaihe Road, was in the same year as Duan Dazhang. Qi Suzao, the former Jiangning governor who had died in his country, was the same year as Duan Dazhang."

"So that's it. I said why is his official career so prosperous? It turns out that although he was a donor, he still took the civil servant's path."

"He is also very good at it. I heard from Yongxiang that he is really a good soldier and a leader," Thinking of the marching and fighting, Ronglu sighed again: "Brother Bochuan, I am not only a little bit of friendship with him, but also a little bit of a relationship. Xiang Rong, the imperial envoy who is in charge of military affairs in Jiangnan, is a fellow townsman in Ba County, and I, Ama, died when I went to Guangxi with Xiang Shuai."
