In fact, all the adults in the lobby had already looked at Zhang Rujing.
Although the words spoken by His Highness the Sixth Prince were not very loud, they could still hear them clearly.
Today's Zhang Rujing is completely different from what it used to be.
It can be said that it flew up the branches and became a phoenix.
Seeing that a minor official under their command could so easily become the temporary governor of the state, His Highness had to appoint him personally.
Although it is only temporary, His Highness's intention is very clear, which is to let Zhang Rujing handle these officials.
The Zhang Rujing in front of them is no longer the petty official they used to serve, but a person who can be said to control their life and death.
It was obvious that His Highness Long Lin was very optimistic about this person.
They are naturally different from ordinary people as they move around official circles all year round.
Although they were very uncomfortable in their hearts, they still showed fawning looks on their faces, full of smiles and goodwill. After Zhang Rujing turned around, they all took the initiative to greet Zhang Rujing and came to Zhang Rujing.
"Master Zhang, congratulations to Brother Zhang for being promoted to the governor of Daizhou. We were all colleagues in the past. I hope Master Zhang can take care of him in the future. Master Zhang should look down on him for a mere two hundred thousand taels. If Master Zhang
If you can reminisce about old friendship, Brother Yu will surely send it to your house many times over."
"Yes, yes, congratulations to Brother Zhang. I said in the past that Lord Zhang Rujing definitely has unlimited potential. Now that he is lucky, it can be regarded as fulfilling Lord Zhang's wish for many years. We can see it in our eyes and sincerely
I am very happy for Mr. Zhang in my heart, and I will prepare a banquet to congratulate Mr. Zhang in the evening."
"You two adults are right. In the past, Mr. Zhang Heshun failed to recognize Brother Zhang's talent. This is why Brother Zhang has never been promoted. Today, Brother Zhang has been promoted. This is the blessing of all officials in Daizhou.
We will certainly use the most precious gifts to celebrate Mr. Zhang’s promotion.”
...
Dozens of adults all held up their hands and said words of congratulations, with more respect in their eyes than when they looked at their father.
Zhang Rujing saw it in his eyes, and the smile on his lips became deeper. He did not speak, but just looked at these people calmly.
After the imperial guard finished speaking, he waved his hand and went outside the lobby. The sounds here may not necessarily be heard.
Seeing that Zhang Rujing remained silent, one of them spoke again.
Among the people, he has a slightly higher status. Everyone obviously relies on his breath, and now they also regard him as a life-saving straw.
He took a step forward and gently patted Zhang Rujing on the shoulder.
"Brother Zhang, I know what you are thinking. It may be a bit troublesome to deal with this matter, but we just need to spend most of the money and put everything on Zhang Heshun. Although everyone will suffer a little, but there is no way.
Don’t blame everyone, I think His Highness Long Lin won’t embarrass us too much when he comes, what do you think?”
Zhang Rujing looked at the person in front of him with a smile in his eyes.
"Oh? Is that so? This is really a good idea."
"Of course it is. There are many other ways. How about we chat while eating at the dinner? I heard that Mr. Zhang only has one concubine. My granddaughter is in her prime. I heard that Mr. Zhang treated his little granddaughter before.
It's quite interesting, and I also feel that she and Mr. Zhang are a match made in heaven."
After Zhang Rujing heard this, he was stunned for a moment.
He didn't expect that this person would actually know about this matter.
That little girl, he was really shocked when he first saw her, but she was already married at that time, and she kept her official status low. Not only was she this person's granddaughter, but she was also this person's foreign relative, so he was afraid that she might not get married.
Give it to him.
The people who saw that scene were probably only a few servants. I didn't expect that it would be spread.
What was an idea at the beginning is now clearly within reach.
As long as he gives a slight nod, I am afraid that after returning, this person will immediately give his granddaughter to him, not as a wife, but as a concubine.
These things were things that he had never dared to think about before.
If this person had spoken at that time, he would probably be extremely willing and want to treat that girl well.
But unfortunately, everything has changed with time.
His current task is to deal with those officials well. If he doesn't handle it well, not to mention that these people can't escape, even his final ending may not be much better, but deep down in his heart, he still has some feelings.
With his current status, as long as His Highness Long Lin can forgive him in the future, he might be able to get it easily if it were a girl from another family. It's just a pity that that girl is the granddaughter of this person's family.
That little bit of heartbeat can be completely forgotten compared to the philosophy he has adhered to all year round.
"Oh? Are I really destined to be with her? Why haven't I heard you talk about this before?"
"What happened in the past is in the past, isn't it still not too late? The little granddaughter is still a beauty in the palace and has not been married. She is a perfect person and will not humiliate Mr. Zhang, you think so, right?"
After the man finished speaking, the smile in the corners of his eyes deepened.
It seems that there is no harm in knowing more about anything. When he heard about this before, he just smiled slightly.
What cats and dogs dare to think about his granddaughter?
But he did not make it public, and gave strict orders to his subordinates not to let anyone spread the matter. At that moment, he suddenly remembered the matter, and then he was secretly glad that it seemed that God would not kill him.
Ah, let him have such a good granddaughter, who happens to be the one Zhang Rujing likes.
The conversation between the two people was also heard by those behind.
"This is a great happy event. Mr. Zhang has just been promoted, and now he has a beautiful girl to always be by his side. This is really an added blessing. Congratulations. When the time comes, I will definitely prepare a congratulatory gift for you.
It’s quite sufficient.”
.......
Everyone spoke in agreement again, with bright smiles.
Looking at the faces of these people, Zhang Rujing felt very disgusted.
He has been an official with these people for many years, and he has no idea how these people are thinking. Now that he has gained power, he reacts quickly.
Those sarcastic words in the past disappeared without a trace in an instant. Now facing him, I am afraid that if I say something, I will not accept anything.
But he would eventually let these people down.
He finally understood the money. It turned out to be gold and silver obtained by making weapons privately and reselling them. Fortunately, he didn't touch the money he got from such a traitorous act. If he did, he would probably be embarrassed himself without anyone having to say anything.
He was directly hit and killed, which is really embarrassing for his parents at home.
If his mother knew, he could fully imagine how desperate his mother would look.
Just thinking about it made his heart sting, and the smile on his cheeks instantly became deeper than before.
He asked His Highness Long Lin if he took the initiative to ask for the Forbidden Army to show off. At that time, he already had an idea in his mind.
