Chapter 660 New Governor and Old Governor

The sentence "Who made you not surnamed Li" left Master Shen speechless.

This is the art of reincarnation.

When it comes to reincarnation skills, he and Li Mu are definitely incomparable. Even in Shen Yi's opinion, the prince's life is better than the emperor's life. , but also busy intrigue with the ministers, life is far less comfortable than the idle prince.

The reason why Li Mu wanted to go south to run errands was mainly because he didn't want to play badly. If he was willing to play badly, he would basically have nothing else to do except eat, sleep and play with women every day.

Don't be too cool.

After drinking with this Tianhuang nobleman for half an evening, Shen Yi got dressed early the next morning and was ready to accompany Cheng Tingzhi's family to the south.

At this moment, Xue Wei is also ready with more than 200 cavalry, ready to go south with Shen Yi at any time.

As for the battalion of three thousand households he brought, since most of them were infantry, the three thousand households led them to go south to Fuzhou.

Shen Yi and the Cheng family met at the gate of Yueqing City. After seeing Shen Yi, the youngest daughter of the Cheng family greeted him, bowed to Shen Yi, bowed her head in embarrassment, and said, "I have seen Uncle Shen."

From Cheng Tingzhi's point of view, Shen Yi, after six years, probably has the ability to hide them.

Shen Yi shook his head slightly, and said with a smile: "It's not in the way, it's not in the way, they are all the same age."

Shen Yi and Sun Shangshu naturally have no enmity, but Cheng Tingzhi and Sun Fu have a lot of conflicts, but even so, when the two meet here, they still smile brightly at each other.

Before entering Fuzhou City, Shen Yi saw from a distance the officials from Fuzhou coming out of the city to welcome them, they lined up in two rows to welcome the new governor of Fujian.

But the latter words are already very obvious.

He is the new governor of Fujian. If you look at the official position of the imperial court, he is almost at the level of the six ministers. Such a low profile is necessary.

Surprisingly, Sun Fu, the former governor of Fujian, was also waiting at the gate of the city.

Shen Yi shook his head helplessly, then glanced at the two "nephews" who were the same age as him, and the older one was one or two years older than him, shook his head slightly, and said with a smile: "You two don't have to listen to Cheng Zhongcheng, We're about the same age, we're friends of the same generation."

It was about seven hundred miles away, and because they brought the family with them, they arrived at the city of Fuzhou in about ten days.

The weather has gradually warmed up, the grass is growing and the warblers are flying. It is a good time to travel, and it gets warmer as you go to the south, so this trip did not suffer much.

Shen Yi also smiled.

Sun Fu sighed slightly and said: "The old man is getting old, it's not a matter of going to the court this time, whether or not he will be able to complete his job in the Ministry of Industry, let alone pay homage to the Prime Minister."

Other chief envoys can pick out gold and silver if they pick a little mud from their fingernails.

The faces of the two sons of the Cheng family changed slightly when they heard the words, the eldest Cheng Yanhe said in a low voice, "Little sister!"

When the time comes, these people will attack in groups.

Shen Yi's expression was serious, and he cupped his hands to return the salute: "I just saw the integrity of justice today, and Shen Qi admires it."

The youngest daughter of the Cheng family was named Jing'er. As for her boudoir name, it was a private matter, and Shen Yi had no way of knowing it.

"The old man has already set up a banquet in the city to welcome the two of you. After the two of you have dinner, you can have a good night's rest."

You know, before Cheng Tingzhi took office as the governor of Fujian, he was already the governor of Fujian, and he was the head constitution of a province in name.

Shen Yi looked at Cheng Yanhe and asked, "Where is your father Lingtang?"

"tomorrow…"

After all, Cheng Tingzhi was the governor of Fujian this time, and actually the head of a province. Bringing these miscellaneous things into the governor's office would make his colleagues laugh at them.

Cheng Tingzhi also had a smile on his face, and said politely: "It all depends on Sun Shangshu's cultivation."

It's nothing more than a disgrace to dislike these things.

Sun Fu also greeted the two with a smile, but he didn't salute Cheng Tingzhi first, but looked at Shen Yi first, cupped his hands, and said with a smile: "Scholar Shen is visiting Fuzhou again, Fuzhou is honored."

This Cheng Zhongcheng, in Shen Yi's place, has already lowered his posture.

The little girl nodded her head half-understood.

He did not go on.

In this way, a group of talents embarked on the road to Fuzhou.

Cheng Yanhe blushed a little, he sighed and said, "Uncle, it's not that I can't take care of the problem, it's mainly my father..."

If it wasn't for a show invitation, it would be really admirable.

If he goes to the local government to be a chief envoy, although he will not become a corrupt official, at least his family's life will not be too bad. Take the present as an example, although he is only a fifth-rank official, he takes money from his family every year. There are several thousand taels of silver.

After all, he, the governor of Fujian, can only serve two or six years at most.

Of course, the money that Master Shen used to subsidize his family was all drawn from Xu Fu, which was legal and compliant.

"Instead, it's you, Scholar Shen."

Anyway, Shen Yi couldn't do it by himself.

He said "discussion", so it was probably a quarrel.

"I hate those pots and pans..."

The youngest daughter of the Cheng family is the most interesting. When she first met Shen Yi yesterday, she first called her elder brother. After being reprimanded by Cheng Tingzhi, she called Shen Yi an adult. Today, for some reason, she changed her name to uncle.

But Mrs. Cheng is still so thrifty.

Master Shen smiled dumbly: "What's so difficult about this? There are two or three hundred sergeants in our company. Just find a few people who can help move things. It's just a matter of hiring one or two more carriages. You can carry them from thousands of miles away. There is no reason to throw your belongings halfway when you bring them to Yueqing."

He folded his hands in his sleeves and said, "You lead me to Zhongcheng, and I'll break up with him."

"Congratulations to Sun Shaobao, who is ranked among the nine ministers, and the prime minister is coming!"

Compared with Cheng Tingzhi's two sons who were strictly educated and studied since childhood, the little girl's personality is obviously a bit out of character. She rolled her eyes and smiled playfully: "When Daddy is away, I will call you brother, Daddy." When you are here, you can call him uncle."

The little girl rolled her eyes, looked at Shen Yi curiously, and asked, "Uncle Shen, you are about the same age as us, and we are neither relatives nor the same surname, why would father let us call you uncle?"

After Shen Yi saw Cheng Tingzhi, after some persuasion, the governor of Fujian finally agreed to take all his things. When he was about to get into the carriage, his face was flushed, and he cupped his hands to Shen Yi and said, "I made you laugh."

"Scholar Shen made fun of Sun."

Seeing this, both Shen Yi and Cheng Tingzhi got out of the carriage, and greeted Governor Sun and the officials of the third department behind him.

The two young men looked at each other and shook their heads slightly: "Don't dare, dare not."

After the little girl came up to salute, the two sons of the Cheng family also came up to salute Shen Yi, calling them "uncle".

After exchanging a few words with Sun Fu, and then with the chief officer of the third department, Sun Fu turned slightly sideways and made a gesture of invitation.

It was already mid-to-late February.

After six years, he will either retire and return home, or be assigned a idle job, and he is destined to offend many people in the past few years.

Facing the little girl's question, Shen Yi said with a smile: "Zhongcheng thinks highly of me, and we are considered friends who have forgotten their age."

He wanted to make friends with Shen Yi and make a plan for his children.

Shen Yi looked at the little girl again, and said with a smile: "The little girl called her brother yesterday, why is she calling her uncle today?"

After saying this, he turned his head to look at Cheng Tingzhi, and also smiled and cupped his hands: "My brother Mingli, you have finally made it through in Fuzhou for three years, congratulations."

Shen Yi felt a little emotional.

He said with emotion: "Bachelor Shen will probably pay homage to the prime minister in the future."

In this era when morality prevails over everything else, father's order is the law of heaven, especially for children who grew up in a scholar's family, they absolutely dare not do unfilial things.

"Don't be rude!"

This is the case in the officialdom, even if your teeth itch with hatred, you still have to smile and flatter each other on the bright side.

Although he, the old governor, had to hand over some errands to the new governor, because he was promoted rather than relegated or dismissed, he only had to wait for the new governor at the official office, and there was no need to go out of the city gate to greet him.

Cheng Yanhe lowered his head slightly, and said in a helpless tone: "Uncle doesn't know something. My father wrote to the family saying that our family will move to Fuzhou, and my mother took all the things that the family could bring with me, and packed several cars. My father said that there were too many things and that they were too cumbersome, and that he wanted to throw some away, and now the two elders are still...discussing how to deal with those belongings."

He looked at Cheng Tingzhi, and said with a smile: "The old man will hand over the errands of the governor's yamen to Brother Mingli."

Cheng Tingzhi's eyes flickered, but he didn't object.

Master Shen nodded with a smile.

"Thank you Sun Shaobao for your hospitality."
