eldest son of Ming dynasty

Chapter 279 Influence
It was late in the evening, and the one-day intensive classes in the academy, by the small river, and in the Fuxing Building finally came to an end.

When Zhao Shen came here, no one paid attention, and it was probably just a meeting, but the emperor's words changed everything.

People from other provinces did not mention it, but the Jiangxi chief envoy and the third division of the province all caught up with him.

They have all worked together before, and it is normal operation to rush to make up for it at this time.Don't say that you don't think you have offended others because of a single thing.

In the officialdom, sometimes what you think is not what you think, and in many cases you offend people, but you don’t even know it.So some people with official experience will take precautions against this, that is to say, regardless of whether they have it or not, anyway, they must first establish a good relationship.If there is, change it, if not, encourage it.

Therefore, Yuan Zhuang, the real governor of Jiangxi, together with Meng Yu, the chief envoy, Zong Fu, the procurator, and He Fengwei, the commander of the capital, coincidentally put aside other things arranged for the evening.

Zhao Shen is not a new recruit in the officialdom, so he is not surprised by these things.

All four wanted to invite him, so he had no choice but to say: "It's better for you to sit down today, after all, they are all from Jiangxi, and it's normal to get together."

Governor Yuan Zhuang shook his head frantically, "How can this be done, no matter what, we can't ask Zhao Zhongcheng to spend money today!"

"Yuan Zhongcheng, I'm very happy today. Why can't I be the host? If you don't dislike them all, you can go to the humble house, and you won't have to fight with each other. Besides, the friendship between gentlemen is as light as water. In fact, we don't need to care about those empty etiquettes at all. .”

The friendship between gentlemen is as light as water?
Well, well, everyone burst into laughter when they heard this word.

At this time, Zhao Shen actually had the initiative, and when he said what to do, others would not dare to obstruct him too much.Although he wanted to be polite on the surface, as long as he really insisted, the remaining four people would agree.

Or if anyone is really unhappy, then don't go.

These things are relatively subtle, but they can basically know that they can be in this official position.

In fact, for Zhao Shen, he didn't want to sit alone at home at this time.The emperor said so many words, and Min Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice also said so many words. These words are still very important, and it is always better to communicate and discuss with each other than one person.

And he can't act too arrogant, as if the emperor said a word, these former colleagues will not be in his eyes, there are so many people here, and they have a bad reputation, and soon everyone in Beijing and other places will know about it .

The emperor's good impression of him will probably be destroyed soon.

In short, everyone has their needs, so they can sit opposite each other in Zhao Shen's rented courtyard.

The five teacups were slowly steaming, and some snacks from the capital were just bought, and they were still hot at the moment.The maidservant was carrying a plate with five bowls of millet porridge on it.

Yuan Zhuang's complexion changed a little, in fact, he could see some clues just from these bowls of millet porridge.The dishes served to them today are not big fish or meat, and it is not easy to do this.

"I've heard that Brother Zhao is a clean and simple official. Today I saw him. I think about what His Majesty said to Min Shangshu today. I can't help but feel ashamed. Although he was sincere in the past, he is not as good as Brother Zhao."

When Yuan Zhuang said this, Meng, Zong, and He all agreed, saying something like 'not as good as Brother Zhao'.

Zhao Shenze thought that this group of people changed their minds very quickly.

In fact, it is nothing more than for promotion.

How easy it is to get promoted, that's how to do it.Otherwise, in normal times, who would imply that he is not clean enough?

It seems that the emperor's words made them want to rely on this path.

Zhao Shen smiled, a lot of things were already on the verge of these people, and he didn't have to wait any longer, so he took the initiative to ask: "Brother Yuan, there are a few colleagues, we are all officials in Jiangxi, what is the situation in Jiangxi?" Well, no one will be harmed. The situation in Jiangxi is not good, and none of us will be left behind. There is no need to mention the past. Now that the new king is on the throne, ZTE is in the ascendant. It is you and me who are promising So I don’t have much to say, just look forward to everything.”

Yuan Zhuang and the others couldn't help feeling that Zhao Shen was really extraordinary.

"It's about looking forward, but the few of us probably don't have the same fate as Brother Zhao. In the future, when Brother Zhao is in the heart of the emperor and the sky is rising, it's good to remember our colleagues in Jiangxi."

Zhao Shen shook his head, "Brother Yuan, Brother Meng, after hearing what His Majesty said, do you still think that Beijing officials are better than local officials?"

Yuan Zhuang and the third envoy paused after hearing this.

"Your Majesty governs the world with Dao, which is a word for the people. As an official in the capital or as an official in a local area, which one is closer to the people? The emperor's close ministers continue to be sent to various places. Now His Majesty has sent the governors of various places, the three From the imperial edict to the capital, there is a sense of training, but the meaning of support is probably the most important thing. In other words..."

Zhao Shen laughed along, "Perhaps I will be lost to everyone, but after you go back and work hard, maybe you will shine in a very short time."

These are polite words, Yuan Zhuang and the third envoy will not fail to understand.

After the emperor's move, the governors and the three divisions should be ready to move, and I don't know how many people are behind it.It is true that this upward channel has been opened now, but there are always more local officials than Beijing officials, which means that opportunities are always limited.

If they miss this time, they are basically 'losers'.

Because the provincial officials rearranged by the emperor are more appreciative, and those who will be promoted in the future must come first, but what about them?"Four or six do not rely on" with the emperor, isn't it just waiting to be dismissed and sent to a more unimportant position in the future, and then I will waste my life on this, and the ambition of a man should stop here.

Especially He Fengwei, the commander of the capital, felt this way even more. When he came, he had already heard that the commanders of Zhejiang and Fujian had been replaced by a decree.

Can be replaced, that is to say, it is not important, what good job can it give you?
One of the older ones went back to take care of the elderly, and the other middle-aged one was thrown to Nanjing to take care of the elderly.

So after careful analysis, there are many opportunities, but in fact the situation is more urgent, just a few times, if it is still not your turn, then don't think about it later.

Speaking of which, those governors and third envoys who fell into the second and third batches should be anxious, right?

Those of them in Beijing should not be left behind.

Yuan Zhuang couldn't help it. After the previous politeness, he opened his mouth to explain the purpose of his visit, "Brother Zhao, you and I are officials in the same dynasty, and we are both in Jiangxi. I, the governor of Jiangxi, ask myself, I treat you well, right?"

Zhao Shen nodded in agreement, "Where is Zhongcheng? Of course Zhongcheng treats me well."

"But you are a blockbuster this time. The four of us didn't hear anything until His Majesty spoke. It's a good thing to be tight-lipped, but there's no need to be so tight with the brothers. Isn't it?"

Zhao Shen understood, probably because people thought he had gone through some 'path' in advance, otherwise how could an emperor pay attention to a small governor of Nangan?

And since there is a way, why not ventilate in advance, so that everyone can be prepared.

"Brother Yuan, this is wronged me." Zhao Shen said helplessly, "I really didn't know that His Majesty would speak like this. I'm not afraid that you will make fun of me. At that time, I was shocked, thinking that I offended His Majesty somewhere."

Yuan Zhuang and the third envoy glanced at each other. Obviously, they had some faith in Zhao Shen's statement, but they didn't fully believe it. However, he is about to be promoted, so what can they do if they say this now? ?
"Actually, I think that Brother Yuan and the three brothers should not think about it this way. I was just like everyone else, and I only saw His Majesty in imperial decrees and memorials. Employers have their own uniqueness, and it shouldn't be anyone who just opens his mouth and can influence His Majesty's mind."

Liu Daxia and Liu Jian have been moved away, who else in the court can do this?
Yuan Zhuang and the third envoy were both deep in thought. They could actually see it, because the emperor had already explained clearly why he was promoted, but they had been running away from relationships for the past few decades, and suddenly changed their minds, telling them to calm down and do things. , Whether this is useful or not, in fact, they have some doubts.

Such scenes are being played out in many places after today's training.Provincial officials gathered to discuss.

Zhu Houzhao was in the palace, and he observed these people through his own channels. This influence was exactly what he needed.As a result, the preparations for the sea order are generally progressing smoothly.

However, when Mao Yuwen came to plead guilty, he mentioned that King Huai made him pay attention... The brothers in this family really like to come to test his courage.
