The rise of the poor

Chapter 743 Entering the Xiyuan

At around five o'clock in the afternoon, the sun was set to the west, but the sun was still bright outside, and there was no twilight at all, but Zhu Ping'an had already left work from Taicang early.

"Leaving so early? Hehe, I guess I can't hold on anymore. I have to go home and rest."

"I think, if you persist for another day at most, Zhu Ping'an will sign and seal, and the inspection will be over."

After Zhao Langzhong and others sent Zhu Pingan out of Taicang, they laughed and teased. In their view, Zhu Pingan couldn't bear it, so he went home early to rest. If things go on like this, Zhu Pingan will at most pretend to persist One day, the inspection of the Taicang Bank will be signed and sealed.

So it should be clear.

As a result, the late-night cafeteria in Taicang became lively again.

After leaving Taicang, Zhu Pingan, Liu Mu, and Liu Dadao rode back. After arriving in Xicheng, Zhu Pingan went to Qin Tianjian first.

As the central government office of the Ming Dynasty, Qin Tianjian had its own independent office just like the Six Departments, and it was located very close to the Six Departments, just to the east of the Yamen of the Ministry of War, after the Ministry of Rites, south of Honglu Temple, and north of the Imperial Hospital.

Unlike ordinary yamen that open to the south, the gate of Qin Tianjian opens to the west, which is probably a matter of Feng Shui.

Signing in at the door is a common rule in every yamen, and Qin Tianjian is no exception.

When signing, Zhu Ping glanced at the entire sign-in page without any trace. There were not many foreign officials who came to the Qintianjian Office, only three or four people a day, and one sign-in page signed for three days of visits. official.

After reading this sign-in page, you will know which officials have come to Qin Tianjian in the past three days.

There was a familiar name in the sign-in booklet on this page, which immediately attracted Zhu Ping'an's attention.

"Jia Xu in Taicang".

Jia Langzhong's check-in immediately came into Zhu Ping'an's eyes, and he was the last one to check in yesterday.

The purpose of Jia Langzhong's coming to Taicang can be guessed without thinking. It is nothing more than the idea of ​​changing the auspicious day of Kumen.

Zhu Pingan knew it well, but there was no disturbance on his face.

After signing, Zhu Pingan put the brush on the pen holder, smiled and exchanged greetings with the gatekeeper, and then entered the gate of Qintianjian.

The internal layout of Qintianjian is similar to that of the six yamen. The main entrance is also three bays. The plaque of "Qintianjian" is hung in the center of the main entrance. Inside the gate is a screen wall, and then there is a large courtyard. Color decoration.Further inside is the double gate, that is, the Yi gate.

Entering Yimen is the main hall of Qintianjian. This is where the officials of Qintianjian handle official duties. The deputy supervisor of Qintianjian also received Zhu Pingan here.

"Wuliang Tianzun... Zhuangyuanlang is here to replace the gate of Taicang, right?"

The Deputy Superintendent of Qin Tianjian is a Taoist priest with fat head and big ears. His surname is Zhang and his name is Siming. He wears a gray gossip Taoist robe, but he looks like a Buddhist Maitreya. He is smiling all the time. Wearing Taoist robes is a bit nondescript, shouting the Taoist name can make people play in minutes.

"Master Zhang is very discerning, and he guessed Ping'an's intention right away." Zhu Pingan complimented.

"Don't dare to be, dare not be the number one scholar who is in charge of inspecting Taicang. My son just came to Qin Tianjian to ask for a good day and auspicious day to replace the warehouse door. Naturally, I came here for this." Zhang Siming shook his head with a smile.

"May I ask Mr. Zhang, has the auspicious date for the replacement of Kumen been fixed?" Zhu Ping'an asked.

"It's been decided. There are two dates for Zhuangyuanlang to choose from." Zhang Siming nodded and smiled.

"I don't know which two days it is?" Zhu Ping'an was interested and leaned over to ask.

"Zhengding and Erkunzhong, Sanren and Sixin are the same. Five stems and six armors are on top, seven gui and eight gen are in the middle. Nine Bing and ten are B, Zi Xun Chou sees Geng. June is Jia, July is Gui, Tian De Jia takes Ji, Tian Degui takes Wu. Taicang belongs to gold, earth produces gold, and gold produces water. Therefore, these auspicious days, one is the [-]th of June three days later, and the other is the [-]th of the next month. When the light and the stars are shining brightly, it is an auspicious day for repairing the door and breaking the ground."

Zhang Siming stretched out his hand and pinched a few seals, murmured, and slowly said the auspicious day when the door of the Taicang Bank was replaced.

It is said that there are two auspicious days for him to choose, but Zhu Pingan knows in his heart that there is actually only one, and that is June [-]th three days later.

As for the eighteenth day of the next month, there is still one month before today, and the time is too long, until the eighteenth day of the next month is all lit up.The inspection dragged on for a month, not to mention affecting the office in Taicang, and Emperor Jiajing was not that patient.

"When I went up today, the Ministry of Industry wrote back, saying that the fine iron warehouse door will be cast in one day, and these two auspicious days will not be affected. I will issue a document to decide which one is suitable for the champion. Which one to play?" Zhang Siming was not in a hurry, the old god was watching Zhu Pingan, waiting for Zhu Pingan to choose a date.

Zhu Pingan knew that Jia Langzhong must have contributed to this auspicious day.They must hope to replace the warehouse door as soon as possible, so that they can feel at ease after the investigation.

Those with a guilty conscience are worried that there will be more long night dreams.

"Then it will be three days later."

But it doesn't matter, three days is enough, Zhu Ping'an said softly, with a confident and firm look in his dark eyes.

"Okay, then three days later, I will have someone issue the document, and after printing it tomorrow, I will send it to Liubu, Taicang and other government offices."

Zhu Ping'an's choice was within Zhang Siming's expectation. After hearing Zhu Ping'an's chosen date, the smile on Zhang Siming's face became even stronger. Finally did not live up to the entrustment.

"In this way, Mr. Lao Zhang will be here." Zhu Ping'an cupped his hands and thanked him.

After the date of replacing the Kumen was confirmed, Zhu Ping'an bid farewell to the Qin Tianjian and headed for Xiyuan.

After entering Xiyuan, Zhu Pingan went straight to Wuyi Zong. It seems that Wuyi Zong is very busy today. Almost all the officials of the department are writing at their desks. They are very serious and meticulous. After entering Wuyi Zun, almost no one noticed.

After entering his Sizhi room, he found that Li Chunfang was not there. He consulted the officials of the same Sizhi and learned that Li Chunfang and several other officials who were good at Qing Ci and parallel prose were called to the same birthday together with Yan Shoufu and Xu Ge. Gong went to engage in creative work, and he went there in the morning, and he hasn't come back yet.

The official of Sizhi obviously paid more attention to his subordinate's article than to Zhu Ping'an's. After saying a few words, he lowered his head and started writing the article wholeheartedly.

Apparently other officials in Wu Yixun are also engaged in creation.

Is it a fast-paced Qing Ci again?Under the leadership of Yan Shoufu, Qing Ci has become the top priority of Wu Yi's work...

Zhu Pingan twitched the corner of his mouth speechlessly, sat down with a pen and wrote a note asking to see Emperor Jiajing, and was going to send it to the Longevity Palace by the servants to ask to see Emperor Jiajing.
