Brocade clothing as the country

Chapter 366 Meet and welcome customers

Guo Pingguang, the official secretary of the Ministry of War, Qiu Yanhai, the doctor of the Fujian Division of the Ministry of Housing, Ge Li, Qianhu of the Jinyiwei, Hu Zhizhong, the head of the Sixth Division of the Rites Supervisor, and Shen Cun, the head of the right guard of Wuxiang, the Imperial Horse Supervisor.

These five people are the team that came to Tianjin Wei to investigate and deal with. The Staff Department of the Ministry of War is in charge of the military system in the world. The Fujian Division is in charge of the various prefectures in Beizhili for economic and taxation matters.

The Chief of the Six Sections of the Ritual Supervisor is the official who is in charge of the deployment of personnel within the Supervisor of Rituals, and the Chief of the Yuma Supervisor Wuxiang Youwei is the official who is under the battalion supervisor and responsible for the inventory of personnel in the battalion. Jinyiwei Qianhu is the permanent establishment of the Jingshi Jinyi pro-army.

These five officials are all fourth-rank or fifth-rank, but they are all in important positions, and they don't need to be stage fright when they see second- and third-rank officials outside Beijing.

Among the five people, Hu Zhizhong, head of the sixth branch of the Lijian, was naturally headed. Nature is sublime.

The inner court was pampered, and they all looked fat and white, but this Hu Zhizhong was a little different, with a thin body and dark complexion, if he wasn't wearing scarlet robes, he would look like a commoner who worked all day.

Among the other two doctors from the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Household Affairs, one is 35 and the other is 37. They have a bright future and are at the age of high spirits. It is rich and noble.

Everyone jointly investigated and dealt with it. Naturally, there was no one who was superior or inferior, and there was no conflict of interest between each other. Before the execution, they were confessed in one way or another. Naturally, everyone was in harmony.

But along the way, Jin Yiwei Qianhu Ge Li abused Wang Tong, saying that he was also domineering in the capital and had no dignity at all, while the two doctors from the military department and the household department laughed and satirized non-stop.

Although Shen Cun, the head of the right guard of Wuxiang, the imperial horse supervisor, didn't speak much, he could stir up the flames with a single word. Everyone was a kind-hearted person, so they naturally understood each other's attitude. There are military generals and eunuchs in the inner court, but the relationship has become more and more warm.

The only thing that made everyone unsure was that Hu Zhizhong, a middle-aged eunuch who was born as a ceremonial supervisor, who was silent all the way. No matter how others tried to find out, he didn't even nod, just pretending that he didn't hear.

There are people coming from the Supervisor of Rituals, behind him is Feng Bao, Eunuch Feng, and maybe there are orders from the emperor and the queen mother, it is prudent to keep silent, just come and listen, and everyone will not bother .

When they arrived in Tianjin Wei, as usual, it was the west gate of Tianjin Wei that entered the city, but no one expected that Yu Ji Yong, the new Tianjin guard, and Xu Guang, the new grain eunuch, would go out of the city for thirty miles to meet them.

Thirty miles out of the city, this is already a violation of the etiquette rules in the officialdom, but it is a full ten for the face.

The Tianjin guard Beidao said that it was also a position under the Metropolitan Procuratorate, not to mention that this was a member of the Six Departments, and he was also a relative of Zhang Ge's old confidant. Happy.

Not to mention Xu Guang, the eunuch who supervises the grain, is the adopted son of Eunuch Feng. Although there are many people in the palace who are the adopted sons of Eunuch Feng, their status is over there, and everyone feels that they greet him politely. Satisfied, in the officialdom, apart from money and power, it's not just about trying to save face.

When these two people came to greet them, everyone in the joint investigation dismounted from their horses and sedan chairs.

Nowadays, there is a collection of goods from all over Tianjin Wei, and it is very easy to buy special gifts and so on. If you are willing to spend money, you can buy everything, and everyone is smiling when you send special products.

When they were fifteen miles away from Tianjin Guard, according to the rules, Sun Zhibin, the newly appointed Tianjin Guard General, sent troops to escort him.

These people who came here are Beijing officials, and they all have such and such real power in their hands. It is always bad to offend or ignore them. Who knows if a little bit of etiquette will be hated in the future, it is better to be more thoughtful.

However, from the beginning to the end, Wang Tong, a thousand households stationed in Tianjin Jinyiwei, did not show up. After the investigation team saw the west gate of Tianjin Acropolis, there was still no sign. Officials have already accompanied them up.

*************
"Wang Tong is really arrogant. Even though he is a young man, he has been in Jinyiwei for three years. How come he still doesn't understand the etiquette and rules of dealing with this? He was born in a small household, even though he is a bit smart, he is still vulgar!"

Qiu Yanhai, the doctor of the Fujian Department of the Ministry of Households, said with a sneer, and Guo Pingguang, the doctor of the Ministry of War, nodded in agreement:

"When I was in the capital, I heard that Wang Tong had scraped Tianjin Wei three feet away. Guo was still a little unbelievable. He thought that it was the capital of the capital after all, so it wouldn't be too much. But looking at it today, it really is that the people are struggling."

Everyone came to Tianjin Wei for the first time, even civil servants did not sit in sedan chairs, everyone got a horse and rode it, led by servants, and wandered in the streets, as for the rest of the entourage and officials, they all went to arrange accommodation in advance. the official post.

Hu Zhizhong, head of the Sixth Section of the Ritual Supervisor, was always listless. When others were talking, he closed his eyes and fell asleep immediately.

Hearing what Qiu Langzhong said next to him, he raised his head and looked around in surprise. The street was bustling with noise, and the houses facing the street were all opened up shops. Even if they weren't open, they were refurbished there to open up shops for the future. Be prepared, how can you say that the people are living in dire straits.

But after taking a few glances, he also closed his eyes. Jin Yiwei Ge Qianhu beside him was already talking angrily, and shouted in a rough voice:
"When Wang Tong was in the capital, he was lawless and used to being domineering. When he was a captain, he dared to fight the small flag, and when he was a small flag, he dared to fight against the general flag. He became a hundred households. There are still people in the capital. He didn't dare to fight, and he was also greedy and lustful. The brothels in the capital had to pay him interest before they could open. The adults in the capital were still in charge. He didn't dare to make too much noise. When he came to Tianjin Wei, What kind of tossing has become."

After finishing speaking, he swears a few swear words casually, everyone just pretends not to hear, Yu Jiyong immediately said with a smile:

"My lords have just arrived, so don't talk about those annoying things. Yu has prepared a banquet at the Sifang Inn to clean up the dust for everyone."

"My lord, you must be good at preparing banquets in the inn. Can you tell us about it?"

Shen Cun, head of the right guard of Wuxiang, the imperial horse inspector, asked with a smile, but Xu Guang, the eunuch who supervised grain, was answering the conversation. Everyone is always willing to talk about romantic things:

"Sifang Inn is the largest inn in the local area. It was opened by a county magistrate who returned home. It has always been used to receive officials. Not to mention it is neat and elegant. The chef's specialties are not inferior to famous restaurants in the capital. There are a few chefs invited there, and the southern taste can also be sung here, and there are also female singers from Jinan Prefecture and Jining Prefecture, which also have a special flavor."

Yu Jiyong nodded with a smile and said:
"Business is very good over there. Rich people who come from south to north have to go in and spend their money. If Yu hadn't asked his boss to take the post, he might not have a position!"

Everyone laughed. What Yu Ji Yong and Xu Guang said clearly meant that Tianjin Wei's business was prosperous and the market was prosperous, but everyone pretended not to hear it.

After walking a few steps, Ge Qianhu, the guard in Jinyi, deliberately slowed down his horse, and when he arrived in front of Xu Guang, the eunuch who supervised grain, he said with a smile in a low voice:

"Grandpa Xu, the business going from south to north in Tianjin Wei is also good. I have heard people say that the side of the Haihe River is a treasure, but now the store is gone. Can I ask Mr. Xu for help?"

Xu Guang nodded and smiled and said:

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say, once Wang Tong falls, Tianjin Wei University will be in a good situation, and everyone will have a share of the profit. What a few stores are."

Hearing this, Ge Qianhu smiled, and along the way, Yu Jiyong and Xu Guang gave hints, saying that Tianjin defends Jinshan Yinhai, and wealth and goods are gathered. Now Wang Tong is too strict. If Wang Tong falls, everyone There are many benefits, it is really itchy to hear, and this Ge Qianhu is impatient, so he has time to ask in a low voice.

Hearing the other party's answer, Ge Qianhu couldn't help being overjoyed. Just about to talk about the details, he heard a burst of exclamation from around, and then someone shouted loudly:

"The yamen is doing business, and people who have nothing to do with it wait to run away quickly!!"

Then there was the sharp sound of a copper whistle. The crowded crowd on the street immediately scattered when they heard the sound of the copper whistle, and the shops were also closed in a hurry. He obviously doesn't know the rules, and he learns after seeing this.

As a result, dozens of people who were jointly investigated and dealt with were left out in the street, and everyone was at a loss, not knowing what happened.

At this time, there was a sound of gongs, followed by the sound of dense footsteps, and a large number of soldiers with weapons poured out from the front, back, left, and right of the team investigating the officials.

Everyone is an official of the imperial court, and they came to the city again. No one thought of any danger, so they followed seven guards. Who would have thought that in broad daylight, fully armed soldiers would come out to surround the city, and everyone panicked. hands and feet.

Several civil officials, including Guo Pingguang and Qiu Yanhai, turned pale and almost fell off the horse. Ge Li stretched out his hand to draw the knife, but he couldn't pull it out a few times, and accidentally dropped the knife to the ground. On the contrary, it was Hu Zhizhong, head of the Sixth Division of the Rites Supervisor, who opened his eyes and rode to the front, shouting in a cold voice:
"Bold and lunatic, you actually blocked the messenger sent by the imperial court, don't you have any king's law in your eyes!?"

His cold shout didn't have the slightest effect, and there was another gong, and these fully armed soldiers immediately put their weapons down, and aimed murderously at the investigating officials in the circle...
