The Happy Life of Small Officials in Northern Song Dynasty

()Chapter Seventy-Five One, Adding Officials and Entering the Noble Chapter, the high-speed update starts, and the number of updated words is 3593

When Su Jin rushed back to the government office, the lobby of the office was already full of guests, there were no less than a dozen people, tall and short, Su Jin just glanced at the door and was taken aback.

The person who delivered the decree from the capital was Huang Peisheng, the emperor's personal servant. I don't know anymore.

Su Jin hurriedly stepped forward to greet each other, Huang Peisheng saw Su Jin hastily put down the teacup and stood up, said with a smile: "Master Su is so hardworking, he went out to do it himself on a hot day, the emperor will definitely appreciate it when he finds out."

Su Jindao: "Your labor manager Huang has come all the way from thousands of miles. It's been a hard journey. He's here to preach the decree."

Huang Peisheng smiled softly and said: "Master Su is very shrewd, he knelt down to accept the order."

Su Jin hurriedly tidied up his clothes and knelt facing north, Fan Zhongyan, Han Qi and others also hurriedly knelt next to Su Jin, and Ge Huaimin knelt aside anxiously.

Huang Peisheng took a brocade box from the plate held by the waiter behind him, opened it slowly with his orchid fingers up, took out the imperial decree and slowly unfolded it loudly: "Su Jin and the subordinate officials of the Weizhou prefecture on Jingyuan Road received the decree." !"

Su Jin said in a deep voice: "The minister accepts the decree."

"Su Jin, the prefect of Weizhou, made great achievements when he took office. He cooperated with Huan and Yanlu Envoy Fan Zhongyan to design and capture Li Ningming, who was the rebel leader Yuan Hao, and wiped out more than [-] enemies. It was the first victory this year. The good news came. Encouraged from inside and outside, I am also very pleased; I planned to issue a commendation after receiving the good news, but considering that Su Aiqing first arrived in Weizhou, there must be endless things to do, so I agree to Lu Xiang's request , suspending the decree of rewards, it is not that the imperial court does not reward for meritorious service, Su Aiqing should not imprison "sao" in private."

Everyone looked at each other in astonishment, the emperor actually explained to Su Jin the reason for the late decree in the imperial decree, with a hint of teasing, this is unique, it is said that the imperial court will make the decree whenever it loves, why should it be explained to Su Jinlai, It seems that Su Jin's status in the emperor's mind is not low.

"More than ten days ago, Li Zhihe and a group of criminals you escorted arrived in Beijing. I have ordered the Ministry of Criminal Justice to try the case. Li Zhihe confessed to the truth and has been sentenced to prison; I am absolutely terrified that there is such a crime in the border town. Unexpectedly, Su Aiqing's move is not only to clean up the government, but also to ensure the stability of the army and the people in the frontier. In my opinion, this achievement is greater than the capture of Yuan Hao's son; if you have merit, you will be rewarded. I will never delay this reply. This purpose Su Jin was granted the honorary title of Great Bachelor of Jixian Temple, and the doctor of the Ministry of Officials still knows Weizhou. Since Wang Yan, the envoy of Jingyuan Road, is old, I originally planned to appoint Su Aiqing as the envoy of Jingyuan Road to appease and recruit, but considering that Su Jin's official qualifications are not yet I am afraid that it will be difficult for me to be competent, so I ordered Su Jin to take this position temporarily, and if I am qualified, I will be promoted to a regular position, Su Aiqing should understand what I mean."

Su Jin was overjoyed. That is to say, the entire Jingyuan Road will be the boss from now on. Thinking that the emperor really put this burden on his shoulders, Su Jin was both excited and worried.As for the temporary generation, Su Jin can guess with his eyes closed that it must be Zhao Zhen's tricks. Most likely, Lu Yijian, Du Yan, Xia Song and others strongly objected to being promoted to envoy just after he became the magistrate, so Zhao Zhen came up with a curve to save the country. As a trick, the interim representative is not an official appointment, but in fact the powers and responsibilities remain the same. This method made Su Jin see that most of the time it was Yan Shu's idea.

"Weizhou has deployed commander Ge Huaimin to be involved in Li Zhihe's case. He planned to take the case to Beijing for a hearing, but Su Aiqing said that he showed repentance and actively eliminated Li Zhi and the remaining party. I also think that he has made outstanding achievements in the Northwest, so I invite you from you. He was allowed to kill the enemy for crimes; Ge Huaimin was removed from the post of commander of the Weizhou capital and demoted to deputy commander; the post of commander was transferred from Yangzhou capital deployment commander Pan Jiang, who will arrive soon; Li Zhong, the magistrate of Tianchang County, was transferred to Weizhou to serve as the general judge of Weizhou, and Wei Songhe, the magistrate of Shaoxian County, was transferred to be the head of the Weizhou government office.

Su Jin was overjoyed, the emperor gave him face, and sent all the people he wanted, and now he finally had a caring person at hand.

"I know that the northwest is difficult, and the western thieves are harassing the sun. Su Aiqing must always remember the responsibility of her life, and she must not slack off. Guard the frontier for the court, and solve my problems for me. If you want anything, you can tell me directly. Thank you! "

"Long live my emperor, long live!" Everyone shouted long live in unison, Su Jin got up to deliver the imperial decree, and everyone congratulated them repeatedly, envious; it is unimaginable that this gentleman passed the imperial examination and was awarded the post of magistrate, but now he is awarded Jingyuan again Although Lushi is a temporary representative, he is already on an equal footing with Fan Zhongyan, Han Qi and others.

Su Jin hurriedly invited everyone to sit down and drink tea. Fan Zhongyan and Han Qi didn't know much about Li Zhihe, so they couldn't wait to chat.Su Jin told the story of Li Zhihe's case in detail, and everyone sighed after hearing it.

Fan Zhongyan said: "I have met Li Zhi and the old man twice, and I feel that he is not bad, but he never wanted to know that people know their faces but don't know their hearts, and they dared to use the idea of ​​food relief. This move is a self-destructive move. Fortunately, Master Su made one move. Capture it, otherwise there may be great troubles."

However, Han Qi complained slightly dissatisfied: "There is such a big commotion in Weizhou, and you actually hid it from me and Mr. Fan. Do you know that you almost got into a catastrophe?"

Su Jin hurriedly said: "Master Han, don't blame me. At that time, I also thought about asking Han Shuai and Fan Shuai to lead troops to help, but I was afraid that Li Zhihe would be forced to take risks when your army came. That would be really great." Misfortune is imminent."

Fan Zhongyan said with a smile: "Shuai Han don't blame Mr. Su, what he said is indeed reasonable, if the dog jumps over the wall in a hurry, Li Zhihe knows that he will die, and he will definitely act crazy."

Ge Huaimin said respectfully: "That's true. Li Zhihe once said to Beizhi that if the matter was revealed, he would sacrifice the city for summer without stopping. Beizhi almost fell out with him at that time."

Han Qi stared and scolded: "Who wants you to talk too much, you, Ge Huaimin, are not qualified to speak from now on, wait until you wash away the shame in your whole body, and then speak again, Su Jinxin saved you, if you are the emissary, I will kill you at that time head."

Ge Huaimin backed away with shame on his face, Fan Zhongyan said softly to Su Jin: "Ge Huaimin was single-handedly promoted by Han Shuai, and later Han Shuai left him in Weizhou when he went to Qinfeng Road, but he didn't expect this fellow to be so unprogressive."

Su Jin said: "Knowing your mistakes can make things better. Don't be angry with Han Shuai. I know that Ge Huaimin has already sincerely repented. If the western bandits dare to commit crimes this time, General Ge will definitely prove his utter loyalty."

Ge Huaimin listened to it from afar, and was moved down the stream.

During the conversation, Su Jin knew that Huang Peisheng first went to Yanzhou to find Fan Zhongyan to pass on the decree, and then went to Qinzhou to find Han Qi, and then he and the two came to Weizhou to pass the decree. I don't know what the emperor's decree Han and Fan said, but it is roughly estimated that they will be promoted to nobles, because the two will be transferred to the capital to become officials in the central center soon.

At noon, Su Jin hosted a banquet for everyone. After the banquet, Huang Peisheng drank some wine after the journey, and looked a little tired. Su Jin hurriedly sent someone to take him to rest.

After returning to the seat, he made tea and sat down with Han Qi and Fan Zhongyan. The topic gradually began to talk about the gathering of troops in Xixia. Su Jin asked Fan Zhongyan to help analyze it. It's for this matter, do you know where the thief is attacking this time?"

Su Jin said: "I don't know, but it's just the three roads of Fuyan, Huanqing and Jingyuan. I think there are adults sitting on the two roads of Huanqing and Huanyan on Yanyan road. The western thieves may not dare to provoke easily. The biggest possibility is to attack our Jingyuan. The same way."

Fan Zhongyan nodded with a smile and said, "The analysis makes sense, but the reason is not that our Yanyan Huanqing defense is strong, so they came to attack Jingyuan. I have definite news that they are indeed going to attack Weizhou, but it is because you are in Weizhou .”

Su Jin said in amazement: "Me? Why?"

Han Qi laughed and said: "You captured his own son, Li Yuanhao wished he could chop you into mincemeat. If he doesn't come to seek revenge on you, who will he look for?"

Su Jin scratched his head and said, "Is that the reason?"

Fan Zhongyan said: "What do you think? You don't know Yuan Hao. This guy is the most conceited and holds grudges. Li Ningming's arrest will be a great shame to him. It would be strange if he didn't come to you to seek revenge; besides, Well, this old man is not guessing nonsense, a few days ago I went around the state to inspect and captured a party spy, he went around the state not to inquire about the secrets of our Song army deployment, but to inquire about a person's position."

Su Jin frowned and said, "Could it be to find out where I am an official?"

Fan Zhongyan said: "Isn't it? Baba asked Xizuo to find out where you work. What do you think their intentions are?"

Su Jin said with a bitter face: "Anyway, I'm not invited to drink tea and have a banquet."

Han Qi rolled Su Jin's eyes and said: "You want to find your old nest, and this time I came to bring your nest. It's best to cut off your head and drink with you."

Su Jin was dumbfounded. He didn't expect Li Yuanhao to gather an army of [-] and the target was himself.

Han Qi and Fan Zhongyan gloated at Su Jin and said, "Does Master Su have any countermeasures?"
