Chapter 280 Your Majesty Never Deals at Losses

Chapter 280 Your Majesty Never Deals at Losses
boom!
When the news that Xia Jingyun had been promoted three times in a row within half a day and now became the fourth rank reached the British government, Lu Rusong, the British government who was so angry that he won three yuan in a row and didn't sleep well all night, directly smashed his job.

"Damn it! Are these old bastards in the center just for nothing? Don't you know how to reject such an unreasonable will? They just stare at the aspect one by one, there is no bottom line!"

The face of the butler guarding the door changed suddenly, and he hurriedly said: "Master, be careful!"

Lu Rusong didn't say any more, and leaned on the back of the chair with a bit of dejection.

Although Xia Jingyun is only a fourth-rank official now, in terms of rank alone, he is not ranked high in Zhongjing City at all.

But smart people always look at momentum, and an upward posture is more important than a high position.

Although he is only at the fourth rank now, but yesterday he was only at the sixth rank, and the day before yesterday he was still white!

According to this kind of favor, how long does it take for the third rank, how long does it take for the second rank, and how long does it take for the official residence to be the first rank?
Don't forget, he's only 20 years old!
What would these fools think?
Lu Rusong frowned, and for the first time began to doubt his side's chances of winning in this battle.

At the same time, Guozijian Jijiu Wan Guili sat in his workshop with a panicked expression.

What he did that day was under the watchful eyes of everyone, and he couldn't cover it up at all, and he didn't even think about covering it up.

Because he has already been deeply branded as a prince, he has no choice but to help the prince with all his heart.

But it didn't help in the end, and he hated Xia Jingyun because of it.

Now Xia Jingyun moved three times a day, and in the blink of an eye, he was an official on par with him, not to mention those officials who gathered under the command of the Jiang Anhou Mansion.

I'm afraid that without Xia Jingyun's words, those people will rush to curry favor with him, right?
What really bothered him was that His Royal Highness seemed to have accepted his fate after the previous trial, and hid in the East Palace in silence, so that fans like him didn't know how to deal with themselves.

The ministers are about to fight to the death, why did His Highness surrender first!

People's sorrows and joys are never connected. When Wan Guili was panicked, Wei Yuanzhi, Minister of the Household Department, was overjoyed, and walked to the door in person as if avoiding suspicion, and greeted Xia Jingyun who came to report.

"Hahahaha! Gao Yang, I never thought that one day, you and I could become colleagues!"

Xia Jingyun smiled and cupped his hands and said: "My lord, you are welcome, but you are my boss, how can you be considered a colleague!"

Wei Yuanzhi was in high spirits every time he had a happy event, and laughed with a red face, "Hahahaha! Good job, Gao Yang, you dare to talk to me on the first day!"

Guan Hexiang, the servant of the household department, smiled and said, "My lord, why don't we go in and talk?"

Wei Yuanzhi suddenly realized, "Yes, yes, let's go, Gao Yang, let's go in and talk."

Wei Yuanzhi, a senior official with many years of experience, is naturally good at power and tactics. Taking advantage of Jin Youwen's suicide and the downfall of Prime Minister Qin, he has already tidied up the whole household department into obedience.

When he led Xia Jingyun to the Hubu lobby, everyone from the Hubu took the initiative to come out to greet him.

Xia Jingyun said with a smile: "Tonight, I will be the host of Mingyu Tower, so I invite all my colleagues to gather together. It's a pier."

Everyone smiled and said: "I have been waiting for Mingyulou's delicacies for a long time, let me borrow Xia Langzhong's light today!"

After some polite acquaintances, Wei Yuanzhi asked everyone to do their own work, and then personally brought Xia Jingyun to the outside of Cangbusi's row house.

Everyone in the Cangbu Division knew that this was a raptor crossing the river, and at the same time, some smart people understood the situation and were more or less clinging, so not only did no one make trouble, but everyone in the company was happy.

After finishing the arrangements, Xia Jingyun was invited by Wei Yuanzhi to drink tea in his room.

Holding the teacup, Wei Yuanzhi expressed emotion, "Gaoyang moved three times a day, and the government and the public were shaken. Such kindness is rare in ancient times, and great things can be expected!"

Xia Jingyun smiled softly, "No matter what, I'm just a fourth-rank official. The road is long, and it's not time to be happy yet."

Wei Yuanzhi admired him, "With Gao Yang's calm demeanor, he will definitely be able to overcome everything!"

Xia Jingyun rubbed the teacup lightly, "No matter what, it's better to put things first. Now that Cangbu is in charge, what's the trouble?"

Wei Yuanzhi thought for a while, "There are indeed some troubles in the water transport. The water transport of money and food is not smooth, and there are many water workers in the water gang and there are things like gathering people to make trouble."

He looked at Xia Jingyun, "Speaking of which, this matter is still under the control of the warehouse department, but don't worry, I will order someone to deal with it."

Xia Jingyun nodded, "Is there a problem with the entire water transportation, or is there a problem with some river sections?"

"How could it be the entire water transport? In that case, not many people can sit still."

Wei Yuanzhi smiled and waved his hands, "It's mainly at several transshipment terminals in Longshou Prefecture, and we can coordinate clearly by sending a few foreign officials."

Xia Jingyun's complexion changed slightly, "Longshou Prefecture?"

Wei Yuanzhi asked in surprise, "What? Is there any question?"

Xia Jingyun put down the teacup and rubbed his fingers lightly, "I'm afraid this matter is not that simple."

He said with emotion: "Our Majesty, we really don't do business at a loss!"

He leaned in front of Wei Yuanzhi who looked puzzled, and whispered a few words.

The more Wei Yuanzhi listened, the more surprised he became, and finally he said in surprise, "Is that really the case?"

Xia Jingyun nodded, "Will you know when the time comes?"

Wei Yuanzhi was stunned for a while, and let out a long breath of foul air, "The emperor's heart is like an abyss!"
-
The three-day court meeting was once again held in the hall.

Emperor Chongning sat high on the dragon chair, listening to the courtiers' discussions with a blank expression.

Looking at the chaotic court, he actually missed Qin Weizhong when that traitor was in charge of all the officials, so why did he need to worry about so many things.

But all of a sudden, how could it be so easy to find another satisfactory person.

Although Xia Jingyun has that potential, he is too young and needs to be tempered.

He glanced at the courtiers standing in the first two rows, and he could see the blazing light in their eyes, which was the longing and pursuit of phase.

Ha ha!

With a sneer in his heart, he picked up a memorial from the table, and said slowly: "Longshou Prefecture has reported that there have been frequent riots at the water transport docks in the state recently, and the transportation of grain and supplies has been delayed. Please send troops to suppress it. Ladies and gentlemen, do you have any countermeasures?"

A civil official stepped forward, "This matter belongs to water transportation. Water transportation is just a transshipment waterway for the country. It doesn't matter. You only need to send a letter from the central government to strictly warn. Under the glory of the sky, the water administrator should do his best To bring order out of chaos and relieve His Majesty's worries."

"Pedantic words!"

A general came out and clasped his fists and said: "Your Majesty, since Longshou Prefecture has reported, it means that all levels of Longshou Prefecture are unable to quell the chaos. The last general will invite thousands of elite soldiers to suppress these rebellious thieves with thunderous force, so as to serve as an example to others." .”

"Bullshit!"

Another official came out, "There are no fewer than tens of thousands of workers in water transportation, and there is only a little chaos at the moment, but if one is not handled well, it will cause drastic changes and cause turmoil in the world. Your Majesty, please punish these thieves with ulterior motives!"

"Suggesting words and offering suggestions, there is no reason to be punished for words."

Emperor Chongning glanced around lightly, with a sneer on the corner of his mouth, "But what I want is a solution, no one in the civil and military courts can come up with a proper strategy?"

Standing in the crowd, Wei Yuanzhi felt that His Majesty's eyes seemed to rest on him for a moment, and then recalled Xia Jingyun's confession, he turned his heart and stepped out of the queue.

"Your Majesty, I have a plan!"

"Come on."

"The transportation of money and food by water is also under the jurisdiction of the household department, and it is a matter within the household department. Xia Jingyun, the new secretary of the warehouse department of the household department, is extremely talented, quick-witted, and has made great achievements for the country. It's big and big, and it's quite delicate, so it's better to let him go to Longshou Prefecture as an imperial envoy and allow him to do things cheaply, and have full power to deal with this matter. This way, you can advance or retreat, and it will definitely solve your majesty's worries."

Wei Yuanzhi's words immediately caused a discussion in the hall.

Xia Jingyun moved three times a day yesterday, which was enough to shock the world, and now he is about to become an imperial envoy again, and let people live.

"Master Wei's words are so absurd. Since you know that this matter is subtle, it will affect your whole body. Although Xia Langzhong is very talented, but he has too little experience, how can he deal with such a complicated situation? What is the purpose of your words? "

"Xia Langzhong is very talented in poetry and learning, but he doesn't know anything about water transportation. For such a big event, it is necessary to send a cadre who is familiar with the practice. The words of Master Wei are too absurd!"

"Your Majesty, Wei Yuanzhi, Minister of the Household Department, violated justice because of his personal affair. Please take his official position immediately and punish him severely!"

Wei Yuanzhi also argued: "Xia Langzhong has repeatedly made great achievements, suppressed rebellion, and punished evil. He has never experienced anything before, but he has indeed done it. It is precisely because of the subtlety of water transport and the relationship between all parties. Complexity requires more flexibility in dealing with the enemy, rather than people who only know practical things."

Just as everyone was attacking Wei Yuanzhi, Emperor Chongning spoke slowly on the dragon chair.

"Wei Yuanzhi, Minister of the Ministry of Accounting, ordered Xia Jingyun, the Secretary of the Cangbu Department of the Ministry of Accounting, to be an imperial envoy, and gave the king's order a flag. He must act cheaply and have full power to deal with this matter. We will leave in ten days!"
