The first assistant of the poor family

Chapter 367 Outward Inspection
Time flies like water, and in the blink of an eye, it has come to the 12th year of Hongzhi.

The first assistant of the cabinet Xu Pu became the first assistant, and the second assistant Liu Jianbu was the first assistant.This personnel change did not change the pattern of the Ming court.

Xie Shen is still working as an officer in the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and his days are leisurely and leisurely.

Qianqian added a new big fat boy for him, and now his son is more than one year old, which is the time to be pleasing.Xie Shen's favorite thing to do after finishing his daily duties is to play with the little ones.

This is the first time he has been a father, and the feeling is hard to describe in words.

The 12th year of Hongzhi's Zhaoxiang looks very good, just like a scene of peace and prosperity.

The benefits of the imperial court’s port opening began to emerge. Trade brought not only taxes but also many American agricultural products.

In addition, Xie Shen's suggestion of opening the sea made the influx of silver in the late Ming Dynasty a full 50 years earlier.

This is a precious 50 years, which can win opportunities for the development of Ming Dynasty.

The Emperor Hongzhi ruled with his bow bowed down, and all the people admired him, which is the image of a prosperous age.

However, something happened this year that shamed the entire court.That is the trial fraud case.

Chen Zhuo, the former right servant of the Ministry of Rites, was also transferred away because Xu Pu became an official.He was succeeded by Cheng Min, a Hanlin scholar.

Together with Li Dongyang, a scholar of Wenyuan Pavilion, he will take the exam.

It's just that the examiner Cheng didn't know whether he had lost his mind or somehow sold the questions to Tang Yin and Xu Jing.

This Tang Yin is the famous Tang Bohu.

Later, when the case was exposed, Tang Yin and Xu Jing were not only removed from their fame but also demoted to officials.Cheng Min, one of the examiners, was also ordered to resign from his post, and his bright future was ruined, which made people sigh with emotion.

You must know that the right minister of the Ministry of Rites is also a Hanlin bachelor, which is a standard preparatory position before entering the cabinet.Xu Pu, the former chief assistant, was in this position before he became chief assistant.

Whether Cheng Minxi is talented or greedy for money, if he does stupid things, he will harm others and himself.

It is worth mentioning that Wang Yangming, who had already failed two tests this time, finally won the first place, and got a good result of No.7 in the second class.

The fifth day of May is the day of foreign inspection.

The so-called external inspection refers to the inspection of local officials, which is held every three years, every year of Chen, Xu, Chou, and Wei.

The reason why it was chosen in May was that February and March were the general examinations and palace examinations, and it was not easy for the foreign inspection officials to steal the limelight from the new scholars.

Compared with the wailing all over the city when Beijing inspectors inspected Beijing officials, the atmosphere of foreign inspections is much more relaxed.

This probably has something to do with the local officials giving gifts of money every year.

After all, it is the Ministry of Officials and the Metropolitan Procuratorate who preside over the foreign inspection.

Cannibals are soft-mouthed, but short-handed.Since you have taken other people's money, you have to do things for them, otherwise you will have your spine broken and you will be hurt.

Of course, it does not mean that external inspections are formalities.

After all, even if the management is in place, if the political performance is too poor, it will be difficult to be promoted.

Taking money and doing nothing is sometimes helpless.

After all, those officials in charge of foreign inspections and the officials of the Metropolitan Procuratorate are not the mothers and fathers of the inspected persons, so there is no need to involve themselves in it for money.

Xie Shen's cheap uncle Xu Lun is naturally also within the scope of this investigation.

Xie Shen, the Ministry of Officials, has already called Xie Pi to say hello, let alone the Metropolitan Procuratorate.

Anyway, he is also a four-rank imperial censor, so his words still carry weight.

My uncle was going to stay in the capital for nearly half a month, so he naturally lived in Xie Shen's mansion.One is to show closeness, and the other is to cling to Xie Shen, fearing that the results of the external inspection will change.

Xie Shen was noncommittal about his behavior of being a villain with a heart of a gentleman, letting his uncle eat and drink in the mansion, anyway, it would be like raising an extra idler.

On this day, the sky is bright and clear, and the wind is smooth.

Uncle Xu Lun was leisurely sitting in the courtyard, Xie Shen walked up to him and said with a smile, "Brother-in-law, the results of your external inspection are out."

Seeing Xie Shen coming, Xu Lun suddenly sat up and said, "Jinxiu, you scared me to death."

Xie Shen smiled and said, "It's a great event."

"what?"

Xu Lunsheng has a short figure with extremely uncoordinated body proportions.

I don't know if it was born like this or it was raised after becoming an official.

The fat on his face trembled and he said: "Haha, Jinxiu, please tell me quickly, don't tease me."

"Congratulations to my brother-in-law for being promoted to the head of the Military Selection Department of the Ministry of War."

Xu Lun's eyes widened, with an expression of disbelief: "What did you say, I was promoted to the head of the Military Selection Department of the Ministry of War?"

Xie Shen smiled and said, "Why did I lie to my brother-in-law?"

Xu Lun was ecstatic for a moment.

A sixth-rank official, he has actually been promoted to a sixth-rank official.

The most important thing is the Beijing official!
After being released from the local area for a long time, Xu Lun's biggest dream is to be able to transfer back to Beijing to work.

Outsiders look like the magistrate of the county, but only he knows the grievances of the county magistrate, not only to deal with the local gentry, but also to fight with the unruly people.

In addition, not being a Beijing official is the result of the notion that he is not in the mainstream. Xu Lun always wanted to be transferred back to Beijing even in his dreams.

However, his achievements in politics are really unimpressive, and he is satisfied if he can achieve a level performance. Unexpectedly, there will be a surprise this time.

Xie Shen didn't think there was anything to be excited about, so he lowered his voice and said, "My brother-in-law should keep a low profile, this is just the beginning."

For Xu Lun, serving as the head of the six departments is indeed only the beginning.

If you want to continue to climb up, there are Yuanwailang, Langzhong, and Shilang.With Xu Lun's ability to be a servant, he should really burn his incense.

"Hey, I told Jinxiu to make a joke of you."

Xu Lun could be said to be proud of the spring breeze, patted Xie Shen on the shoulder and said: "Go, I invite you to have a drink."

Perhaps it was because he felt sorry for eating and drinking for nothing at Xie Shen's place for a long time, but Xu Lun unexpectedly asked Xie Shen to have a drink.

Xie Shen waved his hands again and again: "No, I came back to tell my brother-in-law the good news. There is still business in the Metropolitan Procuratorate, so I have to hurry back."

Xu Lun nodded and said, "It should be so."

Instead of chatting with the cheap uncle, Xie Shen walked out of the mansion, Fang got into the sedan chair as soon as he left the mansion and said, "Go to the inspector's office."

"Is Duoyan Sanwei still making trouble?"

In the lobby of the Ministry of War, Ma Wensheng, Minister of the Ministry of War, listened to his subordinates' report with a gloomy face.

"Reporting to my lord, these thieves are capricious, and they are really hidden dangers. It is better to send troops to suppress them."

"fart!"

Ma Shangshu, who has always been gentle and elegant, burst into foul language, pointing at his servant Zhao Lan and cursing.

"If it wasn't for that idiot Li Gao taking the initiative to kill the Duoyan Sanwei tribe, how could the Duoyan Sanwei be forced to rebel!"

Zhao Shilang promised to say yes.

In the first month of the 12th year of Hongzhi, a major event happened that shocked the government and the public.

Li Gao, the general soldier of Liaodong, set up a banquet because of his meritorious service, and lured more than [-] tribes from Duoyan Sanwei Mutual Market to participate in the banquet, and sent knives and axes to kill them.

Afterwards, Li Zongbing reported the victory and said: The three guards split up and entered the bandits, and the officers and soldiers were defeated.

Such a shameless thing was done, so it's no wonder that Ma Wensheng's face was ashamed.

"Li Gao has already written a letter to plead guilty."

Zhao Shilang forced a smile.

"Hmph, if it wasn't for Duoyan Sanwei's envoy to accuse him, why would he plead guilty!"

　ps: There are too many celebrities in Hongzhi's 12-year general examination and palace examination, Xu Jing, Tang Yin, and Wang Shouren, so I still have to mention them.But this year is not the focus, and neither will the next few years, maybe the spring and autumn brushwork has taken over~
　　Thanks to the Dragon King who counterattacked book friends, the monthly ticket prompted by the system~
