Go back to the Admiral's youth through the book

Chapter 196 (196) Arrival

Two months later, Ji Cheng's team finally arrived at the place where he took office.

Guangdong announced that the Department of Political Affairs and Envoys will be in charge of ten prefectures including Guangzhou, one prefecture of Luoding Zhili Prefecture, and 77 counties and eight scattered prefectures under the jurisdiction of the prefecture.

It stands to reason that Ji Cheng should have come to the chief envoy first, but he went directly to Huizhou mansion.

The official system is roughly divided into two categories, Beijing officials and foreign officials.

The so-called foreign officials, that is, local officials, compared with local officials, Beijing officials have great natural advantages, so it is said that Beijing officials are automatically ranked third.

The governor is temporarily dispatched to the local area today to solve the affairs that cannot be completed locally. He can manage both military affairs and food affairs, and has great authority.

Therefore, Ji Cheng didn't waste any time dealing with these local officials.

He boasted in front of the little lady that he wanted to clear up the bandits within a year, how could he break his promise and get rich?

Longchuan County was seriously infested with banditry, so Ji Cheng didn't go in directly, but came to Huizhou Mansion first.

This place belongs to the government of Huizhou, and the government office is located in Qiaoshan, which is known as "the fairy Yutang once lived in this mountain".

Qushan, also known as Qumu Mountain, has been a geomantic treasure in Huizhou since ancient times.The General Manager's Mansion has existed since the Sui Dynasty, and it has always been the political and cultural center of Huizhou and even the entire eastern Guangdong.

Although it is not as prosperous as Kyoto, it is also more lively than Qinghe.

Ji Cheng rode on Hongzao's horse, leaned slightly sideways to the little lady in the carriage, and said, "How about it, is it okay?"

"Not bad, not bad!" Xia Ou's eyes were shining, and she kept looking around.

This place is not as remote as she imagined, at least there are food for sale, so you will never go hungry.

While they were looking around, the people on the street were also looking at them.

When the eldest daughter and the younger daughter-in-law saw the young son wearing an official robe they had never seen before, they knew that a high-ranking official was coming.

Goodbye, that fairy-like appearance is even more fascinating.

But they didn't dare to go forward, because the strong men in the escort convoy were too ugly, and they all had ugly scars on their faces, which was simply terrifying.

Therefore, I can only look at Ji Cheng from a distance, and no one dares to strike up a conversation...

Soon they arrived at Fuya, and the convoy stopped.

From the gap in the curtain of the car, Xia Ou saw many men standing outside in the dark.

In short, not a single woman at all.

Because she is a female family member and has a high status, she did not get out of the carriage.

In the crowd, a middle-aged official wearing a scarlet official gown, gold and silver thread Yunyan Buzi came out with a smile.

There are 150 prefectures in total in the Ming Dynasty, except Shuntian Mansion and Yingtian Mansion, which are the two capitals, and the rank is the third rank, but the remaining 150 seven mansions can be divided into third class.

More than 20 shi of tax and grain is the upper house, and the magistrate is from the third rank.

Below 20 shi is the Zhongfu, and the magistrate is the fourth grade.

Below [-] stones is the lower mansion, and the magistrate is from the fourth rank.

Xia Ou looked at the magistrate's clothes, thinking that it should be of the fourth rank.

Regardless of the age of my husband, I can only be the son of the other party, but the admiral is from the second rank, with a high official rank...

She couldn't help being proud and complacent.

The magistrate's surname is Lu, even if he didn't meet Gao Ying from afar outside the city, it's still a matter of time.

I heard that the admiral took his family and offered to give them his other courtyard to live in.

Ji Cheng was not paid for his meritorious service, so he directly paid a year's rent and 20 taels of silver ingots.

Because the courtyard is a compound with three entrances and covers a large area, the price is quite satisfactory, and it is definitely not cheap.

Afterwards, Ji Cheng handed over a list to the magistrate Lu, and he was given three days to complete it. After a few more instructions, he took the team to the other courtyard.

It is said to be another courtyard, but it is more like a compound next to the government office, only a few steps away from the government office.

The courtyard is very clean and you can move in with your bags.

Even if it can't compare to her house in Lilac Hutong in Yanjing, she is already very content when she is away from home.

She looked around curiously.

Suddenly, she pointed to a thick tree in the distance, and said, "Husband, is that a lychee tree? Such a thick trunk, at least a hundred years old?"

"It was the Wenhui Hall of the Song Dynasty in the East Hall of the Prefect on the east side of the Lushan Government Office. Chen Yaozuo lived for the state guard, also known as the Prime Minister's Ancestral Hall. There is a lychee plant in the courtyard under the hall. It is a famous and high-quality variety. It is said that it was planted by Chen Yaozuo. General tree."

Ji Cheng answered the inflow, with a smile in his eyes.

Fortunately, he knew that the little lady was a glutton for food and fun, so he did his homework in advance, and he didn't even neglect the surrounding flowers and plants.

Xia Ou was surprised and delighted, and said, "Is this the lychee tree that Zhan Fan, the Zhizhou, invited Su Dongpo to drink and taste lychees in the East Hall of the prefect, and wrote down 'Eating [-] lychees a day, I will always be a Lingnan native'?"
"That's right, that's the root of Mr. Dongpo's poetic flourishes while enjoying the food.

In addition, Mr. Dongpo also made a quotation, describing the situation at that time: Huizhou Taishou Dongtang, Chen Wenhuigong, the old minister of the ancestral hall.Under the hall, there is a lychee planted by the public hand, which is called the general tree by the county people.This year, he is ripe, and after enjoying the food, he will arrest officials and soldiers.If it is too high, the vertical ape will take it.

Since then, the two sentences of "eat three hundred lychees a day, and never hesitate to grow up as a Lingnan native" have become famous sayings about lychees in Huizhou through the ages. "

"Husband, Xiao Ou also wants to eat the lychee from that famous tree." Xia Ou heard the allusion, her heart was itchy and she couldn't help swallowing.

After a pause, she frowned again and asked, "Will it be inconvenient?"

"As long as the lady likes it, why is it inconvenient?"

With that said, Ji Cheng took off his official hat and handed it to the young lady, and then tucked a corner of the official robe into his belt.

Grabbing a bamboo basket from the carriage, he jumped up.

Xia Ou hugged his black gauze hat and yelled like a dog, "Husband is so handsome, so handsome, I like you the most, come on!"

Ji Cheng's ears were already callused to the little lady's rainbow fart, but he still liked hearing her say that.

Probably, he is not far away from the days when he will be ruined by a beauty.

At this time, Xia Ou's eyes were very good, and she pointed to the lychee tree for him, and said, "That, that, the one on top is bigger and redder!"

"Okay!" Ji Cheng kicked his feet on each other, and climbed another half zhang to the tall tree.

He pretended to look down inadvertently, seeing the little lady's eyes admiring him so much, he felt very comfortable.

Xia Ou achieved his goal, and said with a smile, "Husband is amazing! This means that Husband has such a handsome lightness skill. If it were someone else, I'm afraid they can only look at it and sigh!"

Ji Cheng "..."

Others don't know how to do light work, so can't a bamboo pole be enough?
Everyone is like him, properly afraid of spoiling his wife?
He slandered like this, but the movements of his hands were not slow, and he picked a whole bamboo basket of big and red lychees from the treetops.

Xia Ou estimated the capacity of her stomach, stroked the hair on her temples, and said with a shy smile, "Husband, let the fruits grow on the trees first, and pick them after eating!"

Hearing what the little lady said, Ji Chen flew down, the robe that was stuffed in slipped down, and the hunting was flying...

　After the governor arrived in Chenghua, he gradually became like a foreign official, and he had to bring his family with him when he went to a local office.Especially since the 22nd year of Chenghua, the system of the governor returning to Beijing to discuss matters was abolished, which is tantamount to indirectly localizing the governor.

　　But the dynasty in our article has only been established in Chenghua for more than ten years, and the governor is not completely regarded as a local official.

　　If you don't understand this official position well, you can follow the imperial envoy style, and you can understand it, there is no need to be serious.
