Chapter 456

As soon as Shen Hao left, Jiang Chengcheng got up and opened the window of the office room wider to diffuse the annoying smell inside.

"A man who is not a man or a woman, this kind of person also wants to achieve great things? Let's dream!" Jiang Cheng murmured to himself. Of course it wasn't aimed at Shen Hao who just left, but the person who was talking nonsense in his office for an hour before Shen Hao came in.

He didn't like it, even disgusted him, but Jiang Cheng didn't dare to drive the other party away, instead he kept smiling and accompanied him carefully.

It was also because of his irritability that Jiang Cheng made some complaints when talking to Shen Hao, and it is not clear whether Shen Hao noticed it.

Especially the phrase "the atmosphere is getting more and more strange", Jiang Cheng expressed his feelings, especially when he talked about the royal family at that time, he said it unconsciously.

The royal family has really become more and more prominent in the past two years.

In the past, Jiang Cheng still remembered that the royal family was always associated with "transparency". The emperor standing on the top of the tower can be regarded as kind and kind to the people and ministers, but he is extremely strict with the royal family, and he will be severely punished if he doesn't like it.

But in recent years, even if Jiang Cheng didn't pay much attention to the official changes, but with his position here, he always knew something, and found that the emperor was gradually letting go of the strict constraints on the royal family in the past, and even became Some don't care about the state.

Aren't these two extremes?

Jiang Cheng didn't know, but there were different opinions about the change of the emperor outside, and he was secretly plotting endlessly.

I've talked about this with Pang Ban before. Pang Ban didn't shy away from Jiang Cheng either, and said bluntly that according to his judgment, the emperor did this on purpose, probably to test the various abilities of the princes.

Jiang Cheng quite agrees with this statement, and even his own guess is more radical than what Pang Ban said, or it may be that Pang Ban hinted but didn't say it explicitly. That's why Jiang Cheng felt that the princes were making the final charge.

Anyone with a discerning eye can tell that the emperor is already very old. He is considered to be one of the longest-lived emperors in the old Jing Dynasty, but now he has not established a crown prince. In the past, it was okay when the control was strict, but now you just let go, so it's okay?

Before, there was a prince who directly sent a copper bar to the local yamen to say "visit". The prince has no official position, no jurisdiction, no supervisory power, and even "Prince" or "Prince" are just status titles and titles, and they are not in the system of the old Jing dynasty. Words with obvious affiliation?

But the prince of the family used it, and blatantly summoned the local officials, and spared no effort to win over talents. If this was changed in the past few years, a hat of "bad intentions" can crush people to death, and the prince is no exception. But now there is no shit, and there are even many imitators.

Of course, those who dare to do this are princes, and the general royal family does not have such a stiff neck and courage.

Jiang Cheng knew that Xuan Qingwei, the emperor's personal soldiers, were all missed by these princes, and he even went to Fengri City to recruit his protégé, that is, Shen Hao, but was rejected by Shen Hao in person.

As a comparison, Wu Changhe, the former official of the Xuanqing Guard of Fengri City, was Wu Changhe. This Qianhu official sent directly from the commander's office was the prince's man, and was considered an arrow figure in the prince's meddling with Xuan Qingwei at the time. Many people even thought that Pang Ban chose to stand in line, otherwise, how could someone who knew Wu Changhe was the prince send him to a hub city to sit in Qianhusuo?

At that time, Jiang Cheng felt uncomfortable, because the Thousand Households in Fengri City was where he started, and according to the convention, he should recommend a candidate to replace him, but Pang Ban directly sent him down, which was disrespectful to him. But this uncomfortable mood didn't last long. Wu Changhe was beaten to the end because of Jianhuang Tomb's repeated wrong instructions, and was even sent to prison directly. According to Xuan Qingwei's style, Wu Changhe must have been turned into a dead bone by now, right?

Seeing Wu Changhe's fate, all the previous speculations about Pang Ban were reversed in one fell swoop.

It turned out that Pang Ban was not in line with the princes, but was waiting for an opportunity to draw a clear line with the princes! Look, originally Wu Changhe stayed in the command so that the yamen can hang around until the end of time, and he can also act as eyes and ears, which looks good on the outside, but the prince's disciple is Xuan Qingwei's official of thousands of households! How face-saving? As a result, if you are sent to a local town, if there are too many things in charge, accidents will easily happen. If an accident happens, won't your life be ruined?

The example of Wu Changhe woke up the princes, and they realized that Pang Ban was still the same Pang Ban, ruthless, inflexible, and ruthless. Xuan Qingwei's big piece of fat meat was probably unpalatable and fell into his mouth.

So it stopped for a long time, Xuan Qingwei was quiet because of this, Jiang Cheng followed the rules closely behind Pang Ban, why did Pang Ban never pretend to be smart.

But when the soldiers in the south started to rise, the atmosphere in the imperial city changed again. Those princes who didn't dare to come to Xuanqingwei's idea again, but the local system was downturned, looked over again, not only looking at , and touch it with your hands.

This is why Jiang Cheng has been in a bad mood recently.

Before Jiang Cheng came to take charge of the Jingxi Governor's Yamen, there were people inserted by the prince to perform duties in it, and the positions were not low. This has always been a heart problem for Jiang Cheng. He is not Pang Ban, who has no guts and no qualifications to touch the prince.

But fortunately, those princes under Jiang Cheng's subordinates put in more manpower, they knew their duty, and never made Jiang Cheng feel bad. It even made some of Jiang Cheng's actions easier.

For example, Xue Houxuan, who is currently serving as the official of Qianhu in Heiqi Camp in the Fushi Yamen of Jingxi Town, is the person who was inserted by the eldest prince. It is very clear that Jiang Cheng has always kept this person at a respectful distance, but when communicating with the Black Flag Camp below, he always goes through a Xue Houxuan procedure. But this man is very knowledgeable, the vase is very well made, and has always been well behaved.

However, after Xu Hong, the left servant of the Ministry of War, was imprisoned, the imperial city exploded, and the Yamen of Jingxi Town Fushi, who was in charge of the case, became a hot topic. In order to prevent the people below from being affected, Jiang Cheng resisted all the pressure during this period, exhausted physically and mentally. Now those who have another idea about Xuan Qingwei will naturally start to test again.

The commander did not dare to go to the yamen, because Pang Ban was too bloody, and he was worried that he would be slaughtered if he could not eat meat, so the slightly softer pacification envoy's yamen became the first choice.

Just before Shen Hao came in, Jiang Chengcheng was meeting with a prince, and he was also the eldest son of the emperor, King Jing and Yang Cheng.

King Jing's purpose is also simple. He just wants to help his subordinates find some opportunities for promotion and meritorious service. He said that anyway, he can't help Jiang Cheng in the governor's yamen, so it's better to let them find employment. The place

Where are people needed now?
