Chapter 1008 Eating Wuchang Fish Again

After Yuzhu stayed in Ganzhou for half a month, he boarded the boat again and set sail, leaving Poyang Lake, heading west against the Yangtze River, and arriving at Wuchang Mansion.

After the separation of the two lakes, Dongting Hubei is called Huguang Province, and Dongting Hunan is Pianyuan Province.

At the official boat wharf in Wuchang Mansion, Man Pi, governor of Huguang, and Zhang Liandeng, governor of Huguang, jointly led officials from the whole province to welcome Yuzhu.

The current governor of Huguang, Zhang Liandeng, whose name is Yingzhou and whose name is Shengzhai, is a native of Xianyang, Shaanxi.

Zhang Liandeng did not become an official through the serious imperial examinations, but, like Li Wei, he was born in a donated class.

In the official circles of the Qing Dynasty, being born in a donated class was almost synonymous with alternatives, and was quite excluded by fellow Jinshi scholars.

Just as Yu Zhu appeared from the bow, Man Pi and Zhang Liandeng rushed to pay their respects.

"Slave Man Pi, please give peace to the king."

"Humble post Zhang Liandeng, meet the assistant king."

Just by the title, you can know that although Man Pi is a bannerman, he also knows that the Eight Banners are over.

Yu Zhu walked up to Man Pi slowly, and suddenly said: "Before coming to Wuchang, Brother Ninth once asked me to thank you for the 6 taels of garden repair silver you donated on behalf of Brother Fourteen."

When Man Pi heard this, he was paralyzed with fright.

The ninth brother that Yu Zhu talked about was naturally the old nine.

Man Pi, although he is under Lao Jiu's sect, he can only be regarded as a fringe member of the Baye Party.

As the old emperor got older, the governors from all over the country also stood in line to bet on the treasure.

As for Man Pi, he first bet on the old eighth to win, and then the old eighth obviously failed, so he bet on the old fourteenth again.

Speaking of it, it was Lao Jiu's intention to give money to repair the garden for Lao Shishi.

However, Lao Jiu was stingy on his own and didn't want to bleed, so he took Man Pi for taking advantage of him.

Since he was Lao Jiu's best friend, Yuzhu didn't have to be polite, and ordered directly, "Come on, take off the top Dai Hualing, and hand it over to the Ministry of Punishment for a serious crime."

"Yes." The guards swarmed up, like an eagle catching a chick, raised Man Pi's arms, and dragged him out.

Last time, during the meeting of the Political Affairs Office, the poisonous snake Lao Jiu blatantly clamored that Yuzhu is a ball?
Yuzhu considered that it was obviously inappropriate to attack Lao Jiu just after killing Lao Fourteen, so he chose to forbear for the time being, as if he hadn't heard.

Anyway, if you can run to a monk, you can also run to a temple?
As long as you want to settle accounts after autumn, there are many opportunities.

However, temporary forbearance is not inaction.

Since Man Pi is under Lao Jiu's sect, why should Yuzhu be polite?

Hey, as soon as Yuzhu arrived in Wuchang, he took care of the governor of Huguang, and the Huguang officials present immediately fell into a state of self-defense.

Speaking of it, the old emperor was really confused in his later years.

Since the old emperor didn't want to establish Lao Ba, he connived at Lao Ba's followers all over the world.

What is shocking is that among the seven governors in the whole world, three of them are under the disciples of Lao Ba, Lao Jiu and Lao Fourteen.

This is not old and confused, what is it?

Yuzhu scanned the audience for a week, and found that all the officials in Huguang were ashen-faced and panicked.

Hmm, obviously, the effect of killing monkeys for chickens is too good to say!

The way to control the subordinates has always been the combination of grace and power.

Yu Zhu walked up to Zhang Liandeng, the governor of Huguang, and asked him gently: "I heard that you presided over the reconstruction of the Yellow Crane Tower and wrote some well-known poems?"

The famous Yellow Crane Tower has a long history.

At the earliest time, when King Sun Quan of Wu ordered the construction of Xiakou City, a watchtower was built at Huanghuji in the southwest corner of the city, which was the prototype of the Yellow Crane Tower.

Afterwards, the Yellow Crane Tower had a very ill-fated fate. It was burned down and built, and built up and burned down, and the number of times it was completely destroyed was too numerous to count.

After the Qing army entered the customs alone, the Yellow Crane Tower has been burned down four times so far.

The most recent renovation of the Yellow Crane Tower was presided over by Zhang Liandeng.

Zhang Liandeng secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly explained: "The lowly position is too fond of fame, and I am really ashamed."

Because he didn't know the way of Yuzhu, Zhang Liandeng simply followed the old routine in the officialdom, first demoted himself to the dust, and then looked at Yuzhu's attitude.

Yuzhu, who has been a man for two lifetimes, has already visited famous buildings all over the world.

The so-called four famous buildings, from the Yellow Crane Tower with elevators to the reinforced concrete Tengwang Pavilion, which one has he not seen?
"Where is the Xingyuan located?" Yuzhu automatically skipped Zhang Liandeng's false politeness.

Zhang Liandeng quickly replied: "King Fuzheng, your temporary residence is set up in the Fufu Office of Beizhi. However, Beizhi also prepared a small other courtyard, which is on the shore of East Lake. The other courtyard, also known as Meiyuan, Although the scenery is ordinary, there are hundreds of plum trees in the garden, and when the plum blossoms are in full bloom, there is something to appreciate."

With Yuzhu's status, his residence, according to the usual practice, is either set up in the governor's mansion or in the governor's yamen.

However, in an official society, it is never a trivial matter to receive the boss.

Zhang Liandeng was obviously prepared for both hands, but he was worried that Yuzhu would get tired of living in the government office and wanted a change.

The plum garden is surrounded by mountains and rivers, with various varieties of plum blossoms blooming all over the branches, competing for splendor and splendor.

Zhang Liandeng didn't dare to say this sentence.

Because, he still doesn't know what kind of temperament Yuzhu is.What if Yuzhu doesn't like plum blossoms?
Unexpectedly, Yuzhu asked Zhang Liandeng with a smile: "Is the other courtyard built on Meiling?"

Zhang Liandeng was caught off guard. How did he know where Meiling was?
However, since Yuzhu asked, Zhang Liandeng must have some fun, otherwise, he would be too ignorant.

"I'm not going to lie to you, the assistant king, that Meiyuan is indeed called Meiling." Zhang Liandeng was just talking nonsense with his eyes open.

However, after hearing the word Meiling, Yuzhu was in a very good mood, and said casually, "Then live in Meiling...it should be number two!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for giving me the name." Zhang Liandeng quickly changed his address after being flattered.

At first, Zhang Liandeng didn't know the details of Yuzhu, so he didn't dare to pretend to be the king.

Now, since Yuzhu fell in love with Meiyuan and gave him the name Meiling No. [-], Zhang Liandeng was encouraged and dared to change his name.

After accompanying Yuzhu to the main gate of Meiling No. [-], Zhang Liandeng stopped in time.

Even if Zhang Liandeng is the governor of a province, Yuzhu's temporary travel must stop.

Rules are rules, and no one is allowed to enter without a summons.

Standing on the jade pillar at the gate of the garden, he was a little bit proud, and he couldn't help but think of that sentence: where the white clouds and yellow cranes are.

Yu Zhu stood in front of the garden gate with his hands behind his back, and his heart fluctuated accordingly. Just as he was about to step in, his heartstrings trembled violently, and he blurted out: No matter the wind and waves, it is better than strolling in the garden. "

Zhang Liandeng is quite talented in poetry, and when he heard this, he guessed that Yuzhu was in a very good mood.

Isn't that right, after Zhang Bei's great victory, the 30 Manchu and Mongolian coalition forces of the old fourteen have been wiped out.

Lao Si and Nian Gengyao's Shaanxi-Gansu remnants were besieged in the Dashangou in southern Jiangxi.Obviously, the rabbit's tail can't grow.

May I ask, who in the whole world is worthy to be Yuzhu's opponent?

When Yuzhu walked into the garden slowly, he turned around and asked Zhang Liandeng: "Tomorrow, I will go to Fanhu Lake, and I will invite you to eat fish."

Zhang Liandeng was startled at first, and then burst into ecstasy. He hurriedly bowed down, and said in a trembling voice: "Thank you for your kindness, my lord. Even though I'm so heartbroken, it's hard to report what happened."

Yuzhu said, if I invite you to eat fish, it is equivalent to telling Zhang Liandeng clearly that I am very satisfied with your arrangement, and I will continue to accompany you on a tour of Fanhu Lake tomorrow.

Anyone who has done receptions knows that if a distinguished guest takes the initiative to ask you to accompany him tomorrow, it shows that he highly recognizes the reception skills.

How can Zhang Liandeng not be overjoyed?
After Gong sent Yuzhu into the plum garden, Zhang Liandeng was still on his way back to Fuya, so he sent someone to summon the prefect of Wuchang and Jiangxia County.

In Huguang Province, if you ask which official is the most difficult to be, it must be the magistrate of Jiangxia County.

In Wuchang City, the Governor's Office, the Governor's Office, the Feudal Secretary's Office, the Registry's Office, and the prefect's Yamen of Wuchang gathered at the same time.

In addition, Wuhan Huangdao, which governs Wuchang, Hanyang and Huangzhou, and its Daotai Yamen are also in Wuchang City.

As the magistrate of Jiangxia Province, the capital of Fukuo Province, he is full of proper evil.

It is worth mentioning that Wuhan is named after Wuhan Zodiac.

After returning to Fuya, Zhang Liandeng didn't bother to wash his face and change his clothes, so he called the prefect of Wuchang and the county magistrate of Jiangxia into Donghua hall.

"What special products does Fanhu have?"

Zhang Liandeng hated eating fish because, when he was a child, he was almost stuck to death by a fishbone.

Although Wuchang Prefecture is the capital of Huguang, the current prefect of Wuchang is a bannerman with little culture.

This guy is good at making money, but when he talks about the past and the present, he can only stare blankly.

However, the current magistrate of Jiangxia was born as a Jinshi in the second list, and he is quite talented in poetry, which is very popular with Zhang Liandeng.

However, receiving Yu Zhu in the territory under the jurisdiction of Wuchang Mansion, and not asking the prefect of Wuchang to come and discuss it together, was a bit unreasonable, so Zhang Liandeng called him together.

In fact, what Zhang Liandeng really wanted to see was Wang Si, the magistrate of Jiangxia County, the only person.

Wang Siwei loves fish the most in his life, especially the special fish of Fanhu Lake - "Bream", he can't get enough of it.

After Zhang Liandeng asked the question, the prefect of Wuchang couldn't answer at all, so he could only stare blankly in silence.

Restraining his disgust, Zhang Liandeng turned to look at Wang Siwei.

According to official rules, the magistrate does not speak, and the county magistrate cannot speak either.

Although Wang Siwei is appreciated by Governor Zhang, after all, can the water flow through the boat?
He didn't dare to easily offend his serious boss, so he lowered his head and pretended to be stupid.

Seeing the situation, Zhang Liandeng knew that he was wrong and should not have brought the incompetent bannerman magistrate along with him.

Fortunately, there was still a chance to make amends, so Zhang Liandeng served tea to see off the guests.

Guessing that the bannerman magistrate had gone far away, Zhang Liandeng ordered someone to ride a fast horse and called Wang Siwei back.

In the East Flower Hall, there were only two people, so Wang Siwei dared to speak.

"Brother Wang, does Fanhu have special products?"

"To tell you the truth, Mr. Zhong Cheng, Fan Lake, also known as Liangzi Lake, its most famous specialty must be the pomfret, that is, Wuchang fish."

It wasn't until this time that Zhang Liandeng suddenly realized that it was Yu Zhu who wanted to eat Wuchang fish when I invited you to eat fish!
