To be honest, in terms of strength, how can the seventeen government officials guarantee Yunzheng's safety? As a group of government officials in the Wei Dynasty, don't think that they are officials. The more advanced among them can be considered "officials", and
The group at the lower level are not even considered "officials". In modern terms, they are at most non-official staff of government departments.
Moreover, the level of the government officials themselves is also very problematic. In this era of human rule, when officials at all levels take office in one place, they are very accustomed to appointing their own subordinates or relatives of the seventh aunt or eighth mother-in-law as the government officials and government servants under them.
Boss, anyway, local officials in this era have great power. For example, the county magistrate is a typical "seven-grade sesame official" in the eyes of modern people like Yun Zheng, a pitiful petty official. In fact, the power of the county magistrate is
Very big - he is the Secretary of the County Party Committee, the County Magistrate, the Director of the Political Bureau, the Secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission, the Director of Finance, the Director of Public Security and a series of other powerful powers. He is a real and nameless local emperor, so the ancient local officials are
It’s no exaggeration for a local “parent” to have such power. Isn’t it a matter of just talking and arranging some extra staff?
Therefore, the overall level of the yamen servants can only be compared to Wang Xiaoer's New Year, and it is not as good as the previous year.
Fortunately, Yun Zheng didn't really intend to rely on these seventeen government officials to protect himself. He just started to consciously get used to having people following him all the time, so that he would not feel uncomfortable when the personal guards were organized.
Marshal Yun was majestic, like a superior god, so the head of the government service did not wait for Yun Zheng to praise him. Yun Zheng hummed lightly, which made him slightly disappointed, but after thinking about it, Marshal Yun's behavior was reasonable.
What is his identity? Do you think he should greet me with a smile on his face? He is really crazy.
The head of the government office who immediately adjusted his mentality followed Yun Zheng step by step and asked cautiously: "If the young master is tired from traveling and traveling, he might as well go to Linshui Tower to have a rest. The young man has already given them instructions, so he should be able to go now."
Take a quiet rest and see...?"
Linshui Building didn't need him to explain, Yun Zheng had already seen it at a glance. It was in a good location in front, facing the Grand Canal. As for the so-called "given instructions to them" by the chief of the government officials, Yun Zheng probably also
We can guess the meaning, because there are many guests coming out of it, and they don't stop one by one. They walk away in a hurry. Needless to say, it must be the head of the Yamen who sent someone to say hello. He must be saying that some distinguished guests have arrived. Hurry up.
Cleared the place, but I don’t know if he showed his sign as Marshal Yun.
According to Yunzheng's original temper, the actions of the yamen chief would definitely make him feel bad, and he would then coldly reject his kindness. But at this moment, he no longer had that feeling. People themselves are neither noble nor inferior, but everyone
There is a real difference in social status. Even in modern society, you can't expect a commander or chief of staff of a large military region to have a normal relationship with a person who does errands in the county government, right?
As long as this kind of thing is not too excessive, as a superior, you have no choice but to turn a blind eye, otherwise there will be no benefit at all from following you. Who is naturally willing to put a hot face on a cold butt?
"Then sit down for a while." Yun Zheng nodded slightly and said calmly.
The leader of the government office was overjoyed. He had only made preparations in advance, but he didn't really think that Yun Zheng would really agree. Unexpectedly, Yun Zheng was actually willing to accept his kind offer. He couldn't help but feel a hundred times more energetic and excited for a while and hurriedly stepped forward to lead the way.
, and then ordered his servants to clear the way quickly, and by the way, get rid of the troublesome people who were still in the building, and told Linshui Tower to serve this distinguished guest with all his heart.
Yun Zheng, who came to Linshui Building, did not comment on the empty scene in the building. He just followed him upstairs to the elegant room with the best view, told them to open the window, and then sat down to quietly drink tea.
The tea at Linshuilou is quite good. Although it is still far from the best of the best that Yun Zheng drank at Lin Yuyan's place, fortunately, Yun Zheng's level of tea tasting is average and he is not particularly particular about it. He even orders a little.
He nodded and said lightly, "The tea is not bad."
Seeing the Linshui Building owner's face that turned red with excitement and the envious look in his eyes, Yun Zheng felt a little funny in his heart. It was just a polite word, so what? He was a person who didn't like to put on airs deliberately, so he wanted to praise him.
People don't spend money, so he said again: "What... is your name?"
When asked by Yun Zheng, the leader of the Yamen servant subconsciously glanced around - his tone of voice changed a little when he was not as excited as the others, and he said with a slight trembling: "The younger one's name is Zhao...Liu"
Yun Zheng smiled and nodded: "Zhao Liu is, well, not bad, he does things fairly neatly."
Zhao Liu seemed to have been beaten with half a pound of chicken blood at that time, his blood was boiling all over, and his face was flushed, but he was still considered an official person, and he knew that he was not qualified to express any loyalty and determination to the Marshal Yun in front of him.
, had no choice but to thank him with great respect and joy: "Where is it? My young master is wrong about your reward! I am wrongly loved by my young master. The tiger has arrived at the dock of Yangzhou. How dare you not try your best?"
Yun Zheng didn't expect that Zhao Liu's words were quite convincing, so he couldn't help but smile and nodded to him, and then said to the boss of Linshui Building: "If you have food here, you might as well get some."
Come." He thought in his mind that for a shrewd man like Zhao Liu, he had even made arrangements for the possibility that he might stay in Linshui Building to rest, which was only one in a hundred thousand. There was no reason for him not to
Notify Jiangdu County Government and even Yangzhou Prefecture. Anyway, I really don’t plan to go back to Gushan alone. It’s better to ask Yangzhou Prefecture to send someone to deliver it. That’s why I ordered to prepare meals.
The boss was so surprised that he hurriedly went to supervise the work in person. As soon as he left, Zhao Liu whispered: "Young Master, I have sent someone to notify the county government. The county magistrate will be here immediately."
Yun Zheng hummed, and without any other words, Zhao Liu calmed down and stood aside, waiting for orders at any time. This made several waiters stunned, thinking how powerful Mr. Zhao usually is at the dock! Come on, come on.
Frequent merchants, even imperial merchants, were polite when meeting Mr. Zhao. Who didn't know Zhao Laohu's reputation near the dock? Unexpectedly, Mr. Zhao was as well-behaved as a kitten in front of this young master.
Young Master... Well, what does Young Master mean?
The boss personally supervised the work. Linshuilou's meals were not only exquisitely prepared and full of ingredients, but more importantly, they didn't keep Yun Zheng waiting. To be honest, Yun Zheng was already a little hungry after such a fuss.
Yes, he naturally started eating. However, since he had to wait for someone here, he didn’t eat too quickly. When he finished eating half of the meal in a leisurely manner, a yamen servant came in from outside and whispered a few words to Zhao Liu.
, Zhao Liu sent him down, then turned around and reported in a low voice: "Young Master, the county magistrate Zhang has arrived and is asking for an audience outside the door."
Yun Zheng nodded, said nothing, and continued to eat his food. Zhao Liu went out in person and brought in Magistrate Zhang. Magistrate Zhang was a middle-aged man in his forties. He looked very ordinary. He was the kind of person who changed his clothes and left them among the common people.
As soon as he walked in, he saw that Yun Zheng didn't even look at him, he was just eating the food, and he suddenly thought: "What does this mean? Is it because you are annoyed that I came late? It's not like that.
Lao Liu sent someone to report, but he didn't even bother to continue the case that was being heard in the court, and rushed over in a hurry. Is it still too late?" He felt uneasy, and then thought: "Could it be that this young man is in the army?
I have been in China for a long time, and I think that everyone rides on horseback. If so, it is really a mistake - but my equestrian skills are indeed shameful. If I came on horseback, I might still be wandering on the road now.
,Alas, what should I do?"
Although he was uneasy in his heart, he did not dare to forget the etiquette at all. He quickly stepped forward and bowed: "I am the magistrate of Jiangdu County, Zhang Guihua. I have met Yun Duzhi." He met in an official way, so he called Yun Duzhi.
Zheng "all refers to", instead of using titles such as Prince, Young Marshal, and Young Master. It is naturally sophisticated and not complicated. Just mention that we are both officials in the Wei Dynasty. Although your family background
Your position is great, but after all, you are a military attaché and I am a civil servant. It is true that I respect your high rank, but you cannot blame me too harshly.
Yun Zheng paused slightly, looked up at Zhang Guihua, and said nothing.
Zhang Guihua saw that his eyes were very bright, and his eyes were as bright as two black gems. His heart suddenly felt again, as if he had been stripped naked and stood in front of the Shangguan. He actually acted at a loss and twisted uncomfortably.
Moved a bit
Yun Zheng smiled in his heart when he saw it, but that's all. I really thought you could see the proud prince. He smiled slightly, like the spring breeze thawing: "Master Zhang, you're welcome." Although he didn't stand up, he still stretched out his hand and gestured to the seat next to him.
, said: "Master Zhang, have you ever had lunch? If not, you might as well just deal with it."
Zhang Guihua hurriedly said: "Yunzheng is referring to the promotion, but the lower official has already had his lunch." He has had his lunch. He just knows that he is not qualified to attend with Yun Zheng. How can he dare to follow the pole?
Just climb up? So I hurriedly declined politely.
After hearing this, Yun Zheng didn't bother to think about whether he really ate or pretended to eat. He just smiled faintly and said, "How about I ask Mr. Zhang to wait for a moment and wait until I have eaten before talking about anything else?"
Zhang Guihua didn't dare to say "what", so he could only quickly express his understanding.
Unexpectedly, Yun Zheng nodded and said something that made him tremble. Yun Zheng said calmly and calmly: "Just now in Gaoyou Lake, more than thirty warships besieged my ship. Haha, it's interesting to say that.
——I almost couldn’t eat this meal.”
As soon as he said this, Zhang Guihua was so frightened that he almost lost his mind. He had just seen the twenty or thirty warships outside, and casually asked why there were so many warships berthing at Yangzhou Pier today. Naturally, the government officials sent by Zhao Liu would not
Knowing the specific situation, Zhang Guihua only said that it was Young Master Yun who brought him. When Zhang Guihua heard this, he didn't think much about it. He just felt that the young marshal of the Yun family was a bit too big. He could easily move dozens of warships.
Following the departure, he is really the next head of the largest military family in the country. His writing is so bold.
Unexpectedly, Yunzheng suddenly said such heart-wrenching words! Gaoyou Lake is so big, the northern half is owned by Huai'an, but the southern half is the territory of Yangzhou Prefecture. To be more detailed, it belongs to Jiangdu County under the rule of Zhang County Magistrate.
Territory!
Think about it, the eldest son of one of the eight great hereditary clans of the country, the successor of the world's best military family, was actually besieged by dozens of warships on Zhang's territory, and even "almost missed the meal."
", how shocking this must be, how frightening it must be.
Zhang Guihua's calves were trembling a little, and he said in surprise: "The warship outside is..."
However, Yun Zheng didn't seem to be in a hurry. He took a bite of the food and said, "Oh, the cruise ship in front is my ship, and all the warships behind are sent by the Raging Dragon Alliance to besiege and rob me."
Although Zhang Guihua was extremely surprised in his heart, he asked: "Then what now..."
Yunzheng took another bite of the food and then said slowly: "Oh, you're asking how they came to stop at Yangzhou Pier, too?"
Zhang Guihua nodded quickly: "This is exactly what I mean!"
Yun Zheng said nonchalantly: "Oh, that's it. I jumped on their flagship and killed everyone on the flagship. Only the leader was captured alive... Well, that person seems to be the leader of the Raging Dragon Alliance. Then
, he ordered others to stop attacking."
Yun Zheng said it simply, it was an understatement, but Zhang Guihua was shocked when he heard it. What does "I jump on their flagship" mean? Is it so easy to jump on someone else's flagship? Besides, it is a flagship, and everyone above must have
He was an elite, but they were all killed, leaving only one alliance leader captured alive? Oh my God, what kind of monster is this kid...?
He was covered in cold sweat, wiped his forehead, and said: "The Angry Dragon Alliance is so bold and arrogant, this matter is no different from rebellion! This matter is serious, I must inform the Lord of the Palace immediately, Yun Du pointed out...
…”
Yun Zheng had already dealt with the Wrathful Jiao League, how could Zhang Guihua really turn the Wrathful Jiao League into rebels? He said: "It's not that serious. The Wrathful Jiao League was also furious for a moment, so what kind of alliance leader is it now?
He has already repented and is crying and shouting to go to Jiangning to surrender. Master Zhang, what happened to Pontus refers to Pontus. If Pontus is determined to deal with them as rebels, it will naturally not be difficult, but pity them for being angry with the Jiao Alliance.
Since then, more than 100,000 family members have lost their loved ones and the source of their family's livelihood... Alas! Let's not do this. Since the leader of the Angry Dragon Alliance is willing to surrender, we should believe that the Imperial Envoy will give a fair verdict on this matter, you say
Yes or no?"
Yun Zheng said, without waiting for Zhang Guihua's reply, he continued: "As for what you said about informing the government about this matter, I agree with this point. After all, the rules that should be spoken still need to be spoken, but Mr. Zhang, the matter
Before the Imperial Envoy comes to a conclusion, I think it’s better not to be too harsh.”
Zhang Guihua naturally knows these rules of officialdom. Shangguan has no final conclusion. If he jumps to a conclusion first, no matter whether it is right or wrong in the end, he will be displeased by his superiors. Keep a line in everything, so that we can meet each other in the future, right? He smiled and said: "
Yundu means kindness and magnanimity, and the lower officials will be taught a lesson."
Yun Zheng nodded and said with a smile: "In this case, I can feel free to return to Jingjiang Gushan."
