Chapter 1388 Happy and Sad
Master Shen is notoriously difficult to get along with. Ordinary relationship, not to mention visits at the door, when you meet by chance, you only dare to nod your head and dare not go forward to chat, give gifts? Then forget it.
But you Mr. Shen are not easy to get along with, but you can't overwhelm the enthusiasm of the people below, right?
In other words: whether you accept it or not is your business, and whether you send it or not is my business.
So when the news spread that Shen Hao had been promoted to the fourth rank, it was too lively outside the Shen residence in Fengri City. Carriages one after another, loaded with rich gifts, rushed in in groups of three or four, even if they were stopped outside, they would not leave for a long time. It seems that even if you can't enter the door, you have to stay outside until the last time you leave, as if you can appear to be the most sincere person among those who came to give gifts.
But Master Shen's door seems to be more difficult to enter than before. It's true. Master Shen used to like large pieces of rare Yin jade as his collection, but now he doesn't accept even this.
Fortunately, the butler accepted everyone's invitations, so that he would not even be able to get his name before Mr. Shen.
As soon as the people below changed their normal behavior, they no longer had any gossip about Shen Hao. Although they were not so exaggerated as "singing meritorious deeds", they could definitely be called "fulfilling praise". Among them, the Jingxi area is the most touted. Kuang Shengyuan, the official from thousands of households, even came to the Black Flag camp twice under the pretext of official business, and waited until Shen Hao came back to say "Congratulations". The flattering expression made Shen Hao feel that the Kuang Shengyuan he knew before was a Fake?
In fact, not only the attitudes of the people below have changed drastically, but also the high-level officials in Xuanqingwei. Except for Jiang Cheng, the governor of Jingxi, the other three immediately sent congratulatory letters to Shen Hao, and they were far more frightened than the people below. .
Leading a position with real power to be promoted to the fourth rank is not only to express to the outside world that Shen Hao will take over the position of Commander Xuanqingwei in the future, but also to announce that the time for Shen Hao to take over will not be too far away, at least two Three years, at most no more than five years. And when Shen Hao came to power, what should these eunuchs do? Should he continue to serve, or be transferred to idle work to provide for the elderly? Even being dug and liquidated?
Who has no idea.
Going to see him right now would be too disrespectful and ugly, not to mention that if Mr. Shen left an impression of being "quick for quick success", it would not be worth the loss.
But it's not suitable to meet Mr. Shen. It's okay to meet Mr. Jiang, right?
So the three eunuchs joined hands to go to Jiang Cheng's mansion, and they insisted on leaving until late at night, but there were expressions of joy and sorrow on their faces.
Jiang Cheng is Mr. Shen's teacher, and the relationship is so close that it can be said that one is prosperous and the other is damaged. For a long time, Shen Hao was considered to be the one with the most potential in Jiang Cheng's network, but now it has come true, and the statement should be replaced with "the one with the highest status", a fourth-rank one, and his title is already higher than that of Jiang Cheng. The pacifier is half a level higher.
So it is not appropriate to pay a visit to Mr. Shen, but visiting Jiang Cheng and listening to Jiang Cheng's tone is the purpose of the trip of the other three governors. Although Jiang Cheng also gave an explanation in the end, it was obviously not satisfactory to all three.
The person in a good mood is Jingbei Zhenfu envoy, Liu Yang.
Liu Yang came to power after the Jingbei Qin family was taken down by Shen Hao. He is a distant relative of the royal family and a close relative of Pang Ban. A few years later, I took the opportunity to go to Jingbei. Moreover, one of Liu Yang's sister-in-law and Jiang Cheng are relatives in the same family, so they can lean on Jiang Cheng's side in terms of relationship. Therefore, the relationship between Jingbei and Jingxi Xuanqingwei has been good since Liu Yang took office.
And the reason why Liu Yang is in a good mood is because Jiang Cheng hinted that Shen Hao will start preparing for taking office in the near future, and the first-level eunuchs will not move, but there are thousands of households in various places, from thousands of household officials to hundred household officials. May be substituted or remixed.
Doesn't this mean that you have to stretch your hand directly over the township envoy to the Qianhu Office below, who can't understand? But others are afraid of being excluded because of this, but Liu Yang is not afraid, because he is not afraid of wearing shoes with bare feet.
Jingbei began as early as after the Qin family was slaughtered. Nearly 70% of the positions in the entire Xuanqing Guard were arranged in advance. Some were from Jiang Cheng, some were from the Black Flag Camp, and some were commanders. Of Pang Ban's people, the poor ones left are his Liu Yang's people.
In the past two years or so, he encountered evil spirits in the country and the court, which caused Liu Yang to have no chance to make personnel adjustments. There were still lumps in my heart, but now it seems that the bad things have turned into good things. At least he doesn't have to worry about it.
Thinking of the moods of Jingnan and Jingdong envoys at this moment, Liu Yang smiled even more.
Turning his head and glanced at Jiang Cheng's mansion who was still holding a lantern behind him, Liu Yang secretly decided to let the family members and Jiang's walk more frequently from today onwards. This relationship is now a rare protective rope, which must be firmly established. Just hurry up.
In fact, one month before Jiang Cheng ventilated these three people, Shen Hao's arrangement had already started, but the scope was small and there were few places to move. Now that the appointment has been made, the subsequent actions will only become bigger and bigger.
As for whether you will be reconciled to seeing yourself being ostracized? Jiang Cheng is happy to see the reaction of the other three. The command envoy is full of support, so even if the three of them are dissatisfied, they cannot get help from Pang Daren, so they can only think of other ways, such as using forces other than Xuan Qingwei, both military and civilian officials.
If there really was a pacifier who asked outsiders for help, then Jiang Cheng would laugh like hell. People who eat inside and outside can't stand in Xuanqing Guard. With this reason, I'm afraid there will be another good position vacant?
Xuan Qingwei's internal shock was huge, and the outside world was also very concerned about Shen Hao's upcoming commander and Pang Ban's whereabouts.
For example, Bai Changqing, who is currently the hottest topic in the temple, is very concerned about the news of Shen Hao's promotion. Not only was he caring, but the two young wives in his family were even more worried about him directly.
"Husband, if Mr. Shen becomes the commander of Xuan Qingwei in the future, won't you be more affected?"
The worries of the two women are not unreasonable. After all, Shen Hao's relationship with Bai Changqing was also a little stiff because of their treasonous relationship. If Shen Hao's status is raised in the future, it is really uncertain whether it will bring big troubles to Bai Changqing. One must know that Mr. Shen is best at finding reasons to cut off people's heads. Didn't the last left minister Ye Lansheng beheaded by him himself?
"Hehe, you guys, don't think about it, this is not your director." After a pause, Bai Changqing couldn't let his two beautiful wives continue to worry, so he explained: "Actually, if Mr. The words of the Commander of the Qing Guard may be a good thing rather than a bad thing for me. This involves His Majesty's balancing act."
