Brocade clothing as the country

Chapter 228
Wang Tong's affairs in Tianjin, the market and the officials, even though the original Tianjin Jinyiwei provided information, he still looks like a fool and deaf.

After dealing with Chuantouxiang, Wang Tong also discovered that among the hundreds of royal guards left, there are probably not many who are sincerely for him. Otherwise, why did no one tell him about Chuantouxiang's rampant avenue? .

Panda of Bingbei Dao, Wan Dao, the eunuch of grain supervision, and the civil and military officials of Tianjin Wei are almost local snakes. They have been here for many years, but they have nothing to tell themselves, as if they just sit and watch their own jokes.

As for the Tianjin Transshipment Department of the Ministry of Household Affairs, the government servants over there are obviously partial to Chuantouxiang, and there are many interesting things in it.

Can pull out more than a hundred men with some training in the city at any time, equipped with weapons, and stationed in a courtyard, as well as "Uncle Cui" and the old man Jin, they are very measured in their conversations, advances and retreats. The government has dealt with him for a long time, and today he was overwhelmed by violent means. After that, I don't know how many dirty methods will be used to deal with him.

Wang Tong was not walking fast on the return journey, and he was a little distracted on the horseback. Although the general of the Tan family called Wang Tong a master, his status was a bit special, and he usually let it go.

At this time, everyone was making fun of Ma Sanbiao. Just now, at the door of Zhang Chunde's house, Ma Sanbiao's stupid and clumsy performance can be understood by individuals.

Ma Sanbiao has a rough temper, and he talks freely with everyone on weekdays, and this dirty joke is also on his lips, but today he is so red-faced that he can't speak.

Zhang Shiqiang and Tan Jiang stood on Wang Tong's left and right, looking at their lord with a serious face, and they didn't know what they were thinking. They were not as complicated as Wang Tong thought at this time, but thought that their lord saw blood at close range. Killing was a little uncomfortable, so he simply diverted the topic and said:

"Master, looking at Sanbiao's distressed appearance, it seems that he has been tempted?"

When Tan Jiang said this, Wang Tong looked back and smiled, but Zhang Shiqiang pondered for a while and said:
"My lord, Sanbiao has reached the age of starting a family at this age, but the daughter of the old Zhang family is old, and she has a little girl with her..."

Wang Tong waved his hand casually and said with a smile:

"It's good that Sanbiao likes it. If Lao Zhang doesn't rely on us now, I'm afraid he won't be able to survive. Don't worry about such a person, that woman has gone through ups and downs to this day. She knows how to cherish it. Follow Sanbiao!"

The two people on the side wanted to divert the topic, but when they saw what Wang Tong said, they all laughed and kept silent. Everyone understood that it doesn't matter what Ma Sanbiao thinks, or what everyone else thinks. Mrs. Ma clicked The head is done.

*******
"Aunt Ma, can I have another bowl of that mutton bone soup, the wind is too cold on the road, and my bones are still stiff now."

When Wang Tong and the others returned to their residence, the courier from the capital had already arrived, but he was an acquaintance, Wang Si, the head of the messenger team under Lu Wancai of the Yamen of Shuntian Prefecture.

Wang Si's face was pale, but he was in good spirits. There was a leather bag by his side. He huddled in a chair and drank hot soup, wrapped in a quilt.

Seeing Wang Tong enter the door, this Wang Si hurriedly stood up, Wang Tong quickly took two steps to hold him down, he could see that the head of the guard had suffered a lot on the way, and said repeatedly:
"They're all from my own family, so why not be polite, just sit there and say it!"

Wang Si didn't dare to be negligent, so he gave a half salute on the chair, put down the soup bowl and said with a smile:

"It's been a long time since I haven't seen Mr. Wang. He looks much stronger than the capital. Two days ago, Mr. Lu ordered the younger one to go out of the city. Two people and six horses. Apart from resting at the post station to graze, we kept changing horses and driving on the road. It was delivered here in two days, my lord, look at the button of this pocket, the silver thread on it is still lit with wax, it has not been opened, please check it, my lord."

After speaking, he respectfully picked up the bag and handed it to Wang Tong. The bag was sealed with a knot just like what Wang Si said, and it was dripping with wax. If it was opened, it would be noticed immediately.

Wang Tong took out the dagger at his waist and was about to open the bag when Wang Si coughed unnaturally and said in a low voice:
"Master Wang, Master Lu said that the contents of the bag are very important. When you open it, no one should be around."

Although he lowered his voice, he heard everything that should be heard in the room. Everyone bowed together, and Wang Tong took the bag and went to his room.

Although the pocket was big, it didn’t feel like a big deal when I carried it. When I entered the house, I took a dagger and cut open the silver wire rope. There were not many things inside. There were six kraft paper envelopes and a small yellow cloth pocket, which contained the four or four. Square stuff.

Opening the small pocket, a black lacquered iron box was exposed. This iron box is inconspicuous at first glance, but it is unusual when you look closely. Can't get in.

A small brass lock was fastened in the front, a key was inserted in it, and there was a folded letter in this yellow cloth pocket.

Looking at it, it was written very briefly, "Wang Aiqing wanted to tell me everything, and I understand this kind of loyalty. From now on, I should know what I want to tell me about big and small things. Write it down and put it in the iron box." Lock it up and send it to the eunuch in charge of the Jingshi Delicious Restaurant, saying that it is a special product of Tianjin Wei presented to me, and someone will store it. There are two keys in this iron box lock, and I and Aiqing each hold one."

Wang Tong read the letter over and over again. He had seen both Zhang Cheng and Zou Yi's handwriting. It seemed to be the handwriting of the little emperor Wanli. Knowing this handwriting would be beneficial to him in the future.

The things contained in the other kraft envelopes are quite interesting. They are all the ups and downs of various characters in Tianjin Wei, which can be regarded as several detailed files.

Wang Tong's suffocation when he came back from Chuantouxiang dissipated without a trace. With the power of secret performance, his advances and retreats are more calm, and he can understand these local snakes in Tianjin in detail, and he will make more accurate judgments when dealing with them.

*********
Bingbei Dao Panda was a Jinshi in the 42nd year of Jiajing. His ranking in the palace examination was quite high, and he was also selected into the Imperial Academy. The worst for this kind of person in the future is the future of a minister. Possibly, that's really expensive.

Young people suddenly embarked on the road to Qingyun, with such a bright future, it is natural that their mentality is different, and it is inevitable that they are a little bit ignorant.

In the fourth year of Longqing, Panda was already a doctor of a certain department of the Ministry of War. It was said that he must be one of the servants of the Ministry of War. Ma and the team of a certain nobleman from the capital collided. If this matter was resolved peacefully, it would be nothing more than a handshake between the two masters and a laugh.

Unexpectedly, this nobleman has no good temper, so he scolded immediately. Panda is also young and vigorous, but also consciously has a bright future, so he confronted him immediately.

In broad daylight, Panda was a Jinshi who had stayed in the Imperial Academy, but that nobleman didn't dare to fight in the street, the two sides scolded each other for a while before they dispersed and left.

It would be fine if the matter ended like this, but in order to please Panda, a few of Panda's fellow villagers actually wrote praises in the Wenhui Poetry Club, saying that this Panda is unyielding and defy the powerful, and angrily scolded a certain nobleman in the street.

There is a custom in Ming Dynasty, the civil servants swept the faces of nobles, eunuchs, and military generals, and the folks didn’t ask who was right and who was wrong, they just said that what the civil officials did was justified, and it must be some other kind of bullying, which made this scribe who came from the imperial examination tremble To show character and promote righteousness, not to mention the common people, even the nobles, eunuchs and generals themselves think so.

Not two days after the article of praise came out, the whole streets and alleys of the capital knew about this story, and it was changed beyond recognition. A certain nobleman robbed a beautiful woman, but was discovered by Mr. Pan, who defied the power and angrily reprimanded him, and wanted to go to the book For impeachment or something, the nobleman is subdued, and the beautiful woman is willing to promise Yunyun with her body.

And the storyteller compiled a commentary and narrated it in teahouses and restaurants. This Panda's limelight is really the same for a while.

About ten days later, the news reached Emperor Longqing. Emperor Longqing had been a prince outside the palace for decades, so he understood these ways very well. After listening to the story in detail, he commented with a smile:
"It's nothing more than a collision. Both sides have big tempers. No matter who wants beauty between these two people, why bother to grab it? The matchmaker will cross the threshold."

The emperor laughed it off, so naturally no one went to investigate the fault of impeaching the nobleman, and when the matter was investigated in detail, I am afraid that Panda's bearer was in a hurry and didn't see the way.

But this incident made the nobleman furious. This is a completely innocent disaster. Not to mention the embarrassment of the past few days, the mother-in-law and several concubines at home even fell out, and then they were seen by acquaintances. It was also a good laugh.

Since the Son of Heaven made a judgment, then this nobleman has nothing to do, and the next step is naturally to retaliate. This nobleman's surname is Liu, and his name is Shouyou.

Using Jin Yiwei to check, this Panda withheld military pay during his tenure and received benefits from his fellow countrymen was immediately found out. Everyone in the civil service is doing this kind of thing, not only Panda. Those who are punished are immediately dismissed from office and await punishment.

After ten years of hardship, he was named on the gold list, and he managed to survive until today, but because of a quarrel on the road, his future was gone, all the glory and wealth disappeared, and the resentment and remorse in Panda's heart can be imagined, and everyone thought he was completely finished.

But at the beginning of the fifth year of Longqing, things took a turn for the better. Panda was exiled to Laizhou Prefecture to become the magistrate. It is said that the doctor of the sixth department was exiled to be the magistrate. The grade did not change much, but his status dropped by a thousand feet. , There are people who cry miserably when they come out to participate in politics, let alone this, but this is a glimmer of life in their official career, and then they came to Tianjin Bingbei Road in this prefect position, and made it to today.
