In the inn room, Tang Ning looked at Xu Qingyang and asked: If I remember correctly, Brother Xu should have been at the Censorate before, right?
Xu Qingyang smiled and said: About a year ago, I offended the powerful and powerful in Beijing, and later I was transferred here to be the county magistrate.
At this time a year ago, as a marriage envoy, Tang Ning was still fighting wits and courage with the second prince of the grassland and the prince of Chu. I don’t know much about what happened in the capital.
Although he had learned about the major events that happened in the capital during that period after he came back, Su Mèi would definitely not care about the fact that a small official from the Censorate was transferred to Jiangnan, so that Tang Ning did not see this in the information she collected.
Anyone who can stay in the capital after the imperial examination is better than the officials who are released. Xu Qingyang can stay in the Censorate to do things, so his future will naturally be better than being a small county magistrate in Jiangnan. The promotion process of the two is completely different
He looked at Zhang Yansheng again and asked: Brother Xu was offended by the powerful and powerful people. Why did Brother Zhang? You stayed well in the Ministry of Works, why would you be here too?
Zhang Yansheng said indignantly: As the censor, Brother Xu has the responsibility to supervise the powerful officials in the capital. He transferred him without discrimination just because he spoke for justice and sought justice for the people. What is the meaning of such a court? I was so angry that I asked to transfer him to Dingyang...
Tang Ning looked at him. Xu Qingyang might have been transferred here because he offended the powerful, but he was not sure if Zhang Yansheng was angry for a moment...
After all, once or twice is a coincidence, but it cannot be coincidence every time.
He forced himself to be healthy and simple in his mind, looked at Xu Qingyang, and changed the topic: Which powerful man have you offended?
Before Xu Qingyang could speak, Zhang Yansheng immediately said: It was Princess Yiyang. Princess Yiyang indulged his subordinates and bullied the people. Brother Xu exposed this matter to the court. His Majesty blamed Princess Yiyang's slave and scolded her. Princess Yiyang held a grudge and secretly tried her best. Brother Xu was transferred here.
The shrew who was the shrew in the capital was afraid of everyone. If she really wanted to make things difficult for a small official, the Ministry of Personnel would not give her this face.
Tang Ning looked at him and smiled: Brother Xu, don't worry, I will help you with this tone when I return to Beijing.
Never mind Xu Qingyang looked at him and said: Although Princess Yiyang has a lot of bad deeds, she is also a royal princess. Brother Tang annoyed her, and the consequences were unimaginable
Tang Ning smiled and said: Brother Xu, don’t worry, I have a lot of dealings with Princess Yiyang.
Before leaving, he took time to bleed Princess Yiyang. Now she turned pale when she saw her. She either pretended to be sick or was visiting her aunt. Tang Ning was ordered to bleed. Only she could hide from her own part, so how dare she take revenge...
When Xu Qingyang saw him talking about Princess Yiyang, his face was calm and seemed to realize something in his heart. He no longer spoke, but the expression on his face became more complicated.
The three of them were once the top three in Lingzhou Prefecture Examination. Before the Prefecture Examination, both students and the people in Lingzhou generally believed that Jie Yuan was either him or Zhang Yansheng that time.
But who would have thought that during the state examination, this brother Tang appeared from somewhere, and with a desperate gap, he threw the two of them far away.
Later, when he arrived at the capital, he and Zhang Yansheng realized how high the sky was and how thick the earth was. How many talented men were in Jiangnan and the capital. There was still a big gap between them.
But when facing Tang Ning, the experience of Jiangnan and the talented men in the capital was exactly the same as that of them.
The first provincial examination, the first palace examination, the first three-yuan top scholar in more than ten years. He first entered the Hanlin area and was ordered to walk six ministries step by step. He has become the General of the Zuo Xiaowei and the Acting Minister of the Ministry of Personnel. However, the two of them can only be in a small county in Jiangnan, one of whom serves as the county magistrate and the other as the county magistrate. Under the suppression of the county magistrate, he barely survives...
Zhang Yansheng's expression was exactly the same as his. He was originally a friend of the past, but in just two or three years, the gap was so big, which really made people feel uncomfortable.
Tang Ning looked at them and said with a smile: Brother Xu, Brother Zhang, don’t worry, when I return to the capital this time, I will transfer you back.
Zhang Yansheng looked at him and said in surprise: Is this OK?
For those who grew up in the north, if they could stay in the capital, who would be willing to come to Jiangnan?
The poem only says that Jiangnan is good, but not that Jiangnan's cockroaches are several that compare to the north. They can't do it after half a month of drying clothes. They only need more than ten sets of clothes at home. His salary last year was dedicated to the cloth shop and tailor...
Tang Ning nodded and smiled: Yes
The examination and transfer of officials in Jiangnan was previously under the jurisdiction of Fang Hong, the Left Minister. As the acting minister, Tang Ning, in addition to the name of "Di" in his name, his power was even greater than that of Fang Hong before. The transfer of two officials back to Beijing was just a matter of a transfer order.
Zhang Yansheng seemed to have thought of something, his expression faded again and said: No, if Brother Xu returns to Beijing, wouldn’t he fall into Princess Yiyang? It’s safer to stay here. Brother Xu doesn’t go back, and I won’t go back.
Xu Qingyang said: Go back, you can't get used to the climate in Jiangnan, and the capital is more suitable for you
Zhang Yansheng waved his hand and said: If you don’t leave, I won’t leave either.
Tang Ning stroked the goose bumps on his arm and said: Don't worry, I won't break up your miserable couple..., miserable brothers, I've given it to me by Princess Yiyang. When you return to the capital, you can even want her to come to the door and apologize in person...
With Emperor Chen's attitude towards Jiangnan, it will definitely not be easy for local officials in Jiangnan to be promoted in the future. If the two of them stay in Jiangnan, they will probably waste their lives.
Xu Qingyang thought about it, smiled, and bowed: Thank you Brother Tang for this
Zhang Yansheng also hugged his fists and said: Thank you Brother Tang!
It is naturally a pleasure to meet an old friend in a foreign land, especially when they meet two. Tang Ning asked Chen Zhou to prepare wine and dishes, and before the evening dust banquet, he would have a few drinks with them.
After drinking a few glasses of wine, Zhang Yansheng was already a little drunk. When talking about the Lingzhou incident, he hooked Xu Qingyang's neck and patted the table and said: At that time, I knew that Brother Tang is different from us. Qingyang, do you think so...
Tang Ning looked at them, nodded slightly and said: It's different...
……
At the dust banquet in Quzhou, the atmosphere was different from that in Ezhou.
In fact, since Ezhou, other officials from Jiangnan West Road, even the governor of Yizhou, spoke with Xiao Zhanggu of the Ministry of Personnel, were still soft-speaking. As for the Hongmen Banquet, I have never encountered it once.
If you reach out and don't hit people with a smile, Tang Ning is not good at doing too much in this situation. Some harmless small flaws in the area are as long as they are not related to money, he will turn a blind eye and pass it.
Quzhou is not big, if there is nothing to do, the exam will be over in two days.
At the banquet, Tang Ning and the governor of Ezhou made an agreement to start the assessment of the counties in Ezhou tomorrow. The governor of Ezhou made some arrangements for this. During the banquet, the host and the host and the guests all had fun and parted after the banquet.
When Tang Ning returned to the post station and was about to wash and rest, Chen Zhou knocked on the door, walked in and said: Sir, the governor of Quzhou is looking for a meeting.
At the banquet, Tang Ning found that the governor of Quzhou seemed to have something to say. He was not surprised at this moment, put on his coat and said: Please come in.
A moment later, he looked at the governor of Quzhou who had come in from outside and asked: Governor Sun came here late at night, but what's the point?
The governor of Quzhou took something out of his sleeve and placed it on the table
Tang Ning took a look and saw an envelope on the table. He was very familiar with the seal on the envelope. There were similar pictures on the secret letter Chen Huang gave him.
The governor of Quzhou bowed to him and said: The news of a thief in Jiangnan was reported to Your Majesty by me. Your Majesty came to a secret letter a month ago and ordered me to cooperate with Lord Tang to thoroughly investigate the matter. Now the Japanese official has finally waited for Lord Tang...
Xu Qingyang smiled and said: About a year ago, I offended the powerful and powerful in Beijing, and later I was transferred here to be the county magistrate.
At this time a year ago, as a marriage envoy, Tang Ning was still fighting wits and courage with the second prince of the grassland and the prince of Chu. I don’t know much about what happened in the capital.
