Chapter 620 Eating Alone (Part 2)
The room was quite dull. Xu Wei opened the window. A gust of wind blew, which did not bring coolness. Instead, it was a rolling heat. Xu Wei quickly closed half of the window, leaving only a hole to ventilate.
Qian Zheng picked up the scissors and cut off the black candlestick. The weak candlelight jumped, and the room lit up, clearly mapping the figures of the three people on the window paper fan.
After a long period of silence, Sun Jian asked softly: "The long text, can there be a solution for this situation?"
Xu Wei smiled bitterly and said, "At least, Zhan Cai would not return to Beijing before Yan Song retired."
Uh, Xu Wei was wrong this time.
Qian Yuan had very clear prerequisites for the time to return to Beijing, but it is certain that Yan Song was definitely not resigned.
Qian Zheng frowned, "Is it Huating..."
Qian Zheng’s meaning is very obvious. Now Yan Song is in great power in the court, and Xu Jie is struggling to support him. But once Yan Song dies, Xu Jie will definitely ascend to the position of chief assistant. Could it be that Qian Yuan is counting on Xu Jie?
Sun Yan coughed twice, and now Qian Yuan and Xu Jie have broken up... Others may not know about it, but everyone in Suiyuan knows that Qian Yuan's army surrounded the governor's yamen and retrieved Wang Zhi.
Even Xu Wei and Sun Yan knew that Qian Yuan praised Zhao Zhenji as Qin Huizhi and kicked him away.
The two looked at each other... Uh, it seems that no one had told Qian Zheng about this?
"Fenyi, Huating, is just a bird of a feather, it's not much better!" Xu Wei shook his head and said, "Zhan Cai seems to be good at dancing with long sleeves. In Fenyi, Huating is impartial. Jian is in the heart of the emperor and connects with King Yu. There are many outstanding people in Suiyuan. In the same year, he was quite famous, let alone win over civil and military officials in the southeast, which suppressed Hu Ruzhen... But Zhan Cai was actually suspicious."
"suspicious?"
"suspicious?"
Faced with Qian Zheng and Sun Yan's repetitions in unison, Xu Wei explained: "No matter whether it is Fenyi or Huating, Zhan Cai can't believe it."
"In other words, he can only trust..." Xu Wei reached out and drew a circle.
"Suiyuan?" Sun Jian asked tentatively.
Xu Wei nodded, "Of course, there are also people like Jingchuan Gong, Tan Zili, Sun Piyang, etc."
"Why is this?" Qian Zheng sneered, "Even if Yu Shaobao is honest, he is so honest? The administration is not as good as one year!"
"Uncle Shi said it right, in terms of integrity, it is unparalleled? �
Hai Rui is now a little famous. At least scholars in Zhejiang and Susong areas know this magistrate who was promoted from the teachings.
"Zhancai also knows that there is no fish when the water is clear? But when the city was established, it was necessary to be as honest as water." Xu Wei explained: "At the beginning of this dynasty, the sea ban was implemented? The matter of sea trade? It is necessary to be very cautious. If one is not good, the whole market will be lost."
Sun Jian agreed: "The Japanese plague in both Zhejiang was basically pacified last year. If the officials in charge of the trade are too greedy? The trade matter is likely to be repeated? It will even cause the Japanese plague to recur."
"Now the Japanese ills in Fujian are in full swing. When the Japanese pirates are wiped out, they will choose a place to trade in Fujian... By then, the overall situation has been decided, and even if there are inevitably big rats? It will be fine."
"It's like a newborn baby, you need to be cared for carefully? Don't be exposed to the wind and sun, and you'll be able to walk around the ground at the age of five or six? There is no need for an adult to be there at any time."
"Although Zhan Cai is in the heart of the emperor, no matter how good the branch is, Huating is under his command? I am afraid that Xiao Gui and Cao Sui? It seems that it is still necessary for Zhan Cai to control Ningbo Prefecture."
Qian Zheng listened in a daze as Xu Wei and Sun Yan complemented each other. After a while, he found the gap and said, "But...but this is really too difficult."
"Yes, it's too difficult." Sun Jian also sighed: "Zhan Cai is good at managing his family, and he is so rich that outsiders will inevitably think that Zhan Cai is greedy for money. Who wants to be honest?"
"So, in the eyes of outsiders, this is a piece of fat meat." Qian Zheng shook his head and said, "He wants to swallow such a fat piece of meat in one bite, and he doesn't even leave the soup for others... It's really taboo!"
It is indeed a taboo. So many Beijing officials are hungry and their eyes are green. If the business matter is decided, they are afraid that they will rush to Ningbo Prefecture to make a fortune.
When they found that the location was occupied by Suiyuan scholars, they would still be normal to throw dirty water on Qian Yuan and others, and it would be normal to stab the knife in the cold.
"To pacify the Japanese tide of Zhejiang, one stone is used to make a stone of merit, Hu Ruzhen gets three dou, and the rest gets five dou, and Zhan Cai can get two dou." Xu Wei snorted, "Not to mention that the Governor's Office wants to attack Wufeng, Zhan Cai's power is suppressing Jixi, and he will help Wang Zhi to set up a city to trade. This piece of fat meat... He Xu Huating also has the face to rob him?"
Qian Zheng smiled bitterly, "Who does he mean?"
"Bomao is young and not steady enough. Duanfu, Yu Chen, Wen Chang and his nephew are all in Hanlin." Sun Jing said slowly: "Dengzhi, Junze, Zijing, Wen He all have such skills. Yang, Xia and Zhou are all magistrates in various places, and it is also suitable for them to be experienced."
Qian Zheng thought in his mind that Wu Dui, Chen Younian, and Sun Ying were the heads of the Ministry of War, Ministry of Justice, and Ministry of Revenue. After a year or two, the prefect was probably not enough, but a magistrate was still qualified to be promoted.
Yang Quan, Xia Shi, Zhou Shi served as the magistrate in Jiangxi, Huguang and Sichuan. Even if his career was not smooth, he could still transfer the magistrates in Zhenhai, Cixi and other places.
Lu Yipeng is now the censor of the Censorate... The outsider may be able to take over as the Zhejiang Inspector.
Qian Zheng couldn't help laughing. His nephew made a good arrangement, but unfortunately it was too ideal. Even if it could be done, there would be a lot of people who would jump out to oppose it... Is Qian Yuan trying to build Ningbo into an independent kingdom?
Xu Wei chuckled and said, "Mr. Jingchuan is fifty years old this year, how many years can he last. Now he is stationed in Zhenhai and has a very high reputation. It is safe. Sun Piyang, the magistrate of Zhenhai, can be transferred back to Beijing to survive for two years in the six ministries, and then select a person from Beijing to Zhizhen Maritime Affairs..."
"Who is Zhancai picking?"
"Sun Qianfeng."
Sun Jian couldn't help but roll his eyes. No wonder he drove the others to rest, but let himself stay!
Xu Wei was talking about Sun Ying's younger brother Sun Ying, who took the title of "Forward" last year. Qian Yuan couldn't help laughing when he knew about it.
Sun Sheng was in Nanjing. If he wanted to go south with Sun Ying, his elder brother Sun Jing had to agree.
"Although Wenhe is a casual person, he is meticulous, has good conduct, is brave and scheming. Once Zhan Cai returns to Beijing in the future, Tang Jingchuan will take charge of the central army, and use Wenhe as the vanguard..." Xu Wei smiled and said, "Zhan Cai picked two people, one is Wenhe, and the other is to board them. One goes south and the other can enter the Ministry of Revenue. The Grand Secretary Nong Li'an is just preparing to set up a Zhenhai Qingli Office to be responsible for Ningbo Prefecture's sea trade tax bank."
"Oh, no wonder you asked me how I learned the account a few days ago!" Sun Jian said with a wry smile: "I learned it well, but I really don't like it."
"He couldn't sit still, and it happened to be stable."
Qian Zheng nodded, Sun Ying was just a monkey, and he would run around whenever he had free time. After Sun Sheng went to Nanjing, no one cared about him. Chen Younian has always been steady and sat upright and could not leave the bookstore for a day.
It was already late at night, and Qian Zheng was about to go back, but suddenly stopped and turned around and said, "The impeachment in the court is getting more and more intense. Yesterday, Gao Suqing asked about this matter and invited Wen Chang to talk about it."
Xu Wei blinked, "Are he worried about Zhan Cai or..."
Qian Zheng smiled and said, "Everyone in the garden is full of heroes."
Xu Wei thought about it for a while and looked at Sun Yan... Qian Yuan highly praised Gao Gong. Now it seems that this person is not a good-looking person.
As early as a few years ago, Suiyuan had already joined the Prince Yu Mansion. The former was headed by Qian Yuan and the latter was headed by Gao Gong.
Gao Gong was quite optimistic about Suiyuan. There were only five Hanlin officials alone. The rest were either famous or well-received in other places. Xu Wenchang, who was favored by Emperor Jiajing with Qing Ci, sighed and abandoned Qian Zhancai, who went south to pacify the Japanese.
However, Suiyuan takes Qian Yuan as the core, so it is difficult for Gao Gong to cross Qian Yuan to contact other Suiyuan scholars, which is a taboo.
Qian Yuan seems to be in danger now. If he falls, Suiyuan will definitely be headed by Xu Wei. Gao Gong wants to win over Suiyuan.
Xu Wei and Sun Yan were both quick-witted and bowed to him with silence.
After walking out of Suiyuan, Qian Zheng couldn't help but look back and a smile appeared on his face. In any case, Yuan'er's eyes were really unattainable. In the 35th year of Jiajing, nearly 300 Jinshi were selected, not only were they heroes, but also gentlemen who valued love and righteousness.
