Chapter 144: Etiquette Issues

Hearing Ambassador Sun's words, Fang Yingwu smiled and said: "What's this? I'm already very generous. There are more cruel ones, but it's just not necessary."

"What else can be done?" Ambassador Sun asked shamelessly.

Fang Yingwu joked: "Yulin City is so big, it shouldn't be difficult to find out the whereabouts of Mr. Peng. We are deliberately looking for Mr. Peng now. Guess what he will do to us when he sees us?"

"Of course they will severely humiliate us or deal with us again!" Ambassador Sun looked forward and suddenly stopped because he saw Mr. Peng coming towards him with his head held high.

"It really means that Cao Cao and Cao Cao have arrived." Ambassador Sun couldn't help but muttered to himself.

Fang Yingwu was also stunned. His mouth seemed to be too smart recently. It was probably that the young master was returning to the guard office after doing other things, and he happened to bump into him at the alley outside the guard office.

Could it be that this is the fate of heaven and earth, and we should be blamed for it?

Mr. Peng clearly saw the person coming across from him. He was puzzled for a moment and then said angrily: "Why did Mr. Xue let you two go?"

Fang Yingwu snorted and said arrogantly: "Who do you think you are? Do you think you can cover the sky with one hand?"

Mr. Peng, who could tolerate such provocation, ordered his surroundings: "Take it and send it in! I want to see for myself how Mr. Xue solves the case!"

When two wolf-like sergeants came forward to take someone away, Fang Yingwu and Ambassador Sun looked at each other, did not resist, and were taken to the Zhenfu Division again.

But he said that in the lobby, Xue Zhenfu was thinking about what happened just now and considering how to reduce the impact on himself. Suddenly he heard a commotion outside the hall. He looked up and saw Mr. Peng arrogantly taking Fang Yingwu into custody again.

came back

"Uncle Xue! What happened to you that you let two criminals go so easily?" Mr. Peng immediately shouted in the hall.

Second Young Master Peng shouted loudly and asked Xue Zhen to stroke his head, which was as big as a bucket. He felt miserable in his heart. After finally settling the matter and sending Fang Yingwu away, why did Second Young Master Peng capture him again?

He understood that the Second Young Master Peng might not know the inside story, so he quickly stepped forward to greet him and whispered the situation into Second Young Master Peng's ear.

Taking advantage of this moment, Fang Yingwu cupped his hands and said loudly: "What a Yulin Guard, I've captured him twice in a row, but there is an old saying that only three can kill you. I'll take my leave!"

Then Fang Yingwu took Ambassador Sun and left quickly. Again, Commander Peng should not be given a chance to appear in person!

In the inner office, Commander Peng heard the report and said that Fang Yingwu left happily. He smiled to the people around him and said, "Students are timid and timid. I think that Fang Xiucai is nothing more than that."

After leaving the guard office again, Ambassador Sun responded to the other party with deep feelings: "I want to thank you very much for what happened today. If you hadn't saved me, I would have been imprisoned."

Fang Yingwu waved his hand and said: "No need to thank me, the matter has already implicated me. Even without you, I will save myself."

Ambassador Sun sighed, "Although there is nothing to do today, it is no longer easy to stay in Yulin City. It is time for me to resign and go back to Shanxi. As for Guangyouku, whoever wants to take over can take over!"

Fang Yingwu advised: "This is what an experienced person says, but Mr. Sun, don't worry, maybe there will be a turning point."

After leaving the alley, Fang Yingwu and Sun Lin parted ways. Ambassador Sun returned to the warehouse, while Fang Yingwu went to the Governor's Office.

Although there is currently no master in the governor's court, there are still a number of left-behind servants and clerks on duty. Fang Yingwu, as a staff member of the governor, came here with the governor's red edict and cards, and the whole court was immediately in a panic.

stand up.

There was only one day and two nights to prepare for cleaning the courtyard gate, sorting out official documents about the detention, notifying all the government offices in the city about the reception, and preparing vehicles, sedans, and music troupes. All these things were very busy and chaotic.

But as the governor's representative, Fang Yingwu is still the only one at present. He just sits in the governor's court, drinks tea, listens to reports and gives instructions, and has become addicted to leadership. Of course, other people will do the errands for specific matters.

Another day passed. According to the schedule, Governor Yang would arrive in Yulin today. Hundreds of city officials and military and civilian representatives went out of the city ten miles to greet him. However, Fang Yingwu did not have to go out of the city to greet him. He only had to wait for his boss to take office at the gate of the Governor's Office.

It was already noon, and Fang Yingwu was sitting in the concierge, dozing off out of boredom. He heard a high-pitched trumpet in a daze, and the handyman next to him woke him up, "It's coming, it's coming!"

Fang Yingwu stood up, wiped his face, walked out of the door, and led a group of servants to wait respectfully outside the door.

A huge procession poured into the alley in front of the Governor's Office. Governor Yang's carriage had been replaced by an eight-carat sedan, a real eight-carat sedan.

The sedan stopped outside the gate, Governor Yang got off the sedan, and Fang Yingwu hurriedly stepped forward to salute.

After that, there was a series of ceremonies for new officials to take office, with professionals such as local temple priests and onmyojis guiding and presiding over them.

Fang Yingwu took the time to chat with another governor's staff member, Master Cui. They tacitly shared what they had seen and learned.

Both of them are Governor Yang's right-hand men, and they are each responsible for their own affairs. They need to communicate more to fully grasp the overall situation.

Fang Yingwu thought of something and asked: "Just now, the civil and military officials met in the suburbs, but I have never seen it with my own eyes. I wonder if Commander Peng and others have ever knelt down to see Futai?"

Master Cui shook his head and sighed: "Everyone below the commander of the guard station knelt down to see him, but the commander and above, including the commander and the deputy commander-in-chief, did not kneel down to see him. As for the commander-in-chief, he was not in the city.

I heard they went on patrol."

Fang Yingwu also shook his head. Governor Yang had just arrived and had not yet established his authority. There was still a long way to go.

The Ming Dynasty has gradually become more noble and military, and the rank of military attachés is worthless compared to the rank of civil servants. Although it has not reached the exaggerated level after Jiajing, when ministers dared to kill the generals, it has already begun to enter this trend.

We are still in the transition period, and there are no detailed rules indicating what the etiquette should be for civil and military encounters. To a large extent, it still depends on the spontaneous mentality.

For example, the deputy governor of Bian Town and the commander are of the same rank in name, but in fact they have a superior-subordinate relationship. Whether they kneel to meet each other or not, it seems to make sense. But carefully appreciate the reflections.

What came out was very meaningful.

When Commander Peng, a third-rank military attache, met Governor Yang, the third-rank deputy censor, he refused to show his courtesy. This already explains a lot of problems.

"As you said, he is a proud and powerful general." Master Cui also felt the pressure.

Fang Yingwu chuckled and said: "They are just paper tigers. Futai wants to make great contributions and cannot give in to this generation. I am willing to be a pioneer and test." (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!)
