Volume A Chapter 38 Political fledgling, groping forward
Feng Ziying realized that her previous thinking was still too simple.
The reason why he felt confident was largely due to the fact that Chen Jingxuan served as the chief water transport officer.
According to his understanding, the Governor of Water Transport was in charge of the daily affairs of Water Transport, while the General Officer of Water Transport should be in charge of the Water Transport troops, including even the personal barracks of the Governor of Water Transport. Unexpectedly, the General Officer of Water Transport in Zhou Dynasty was reduced to a useless post.
Chen Jingxuan, who had a serious lack of voice, was unwilling to take the risk of Mao's anger and Li Sancai's wrath even if he had the intention. This was also a big mistake on his part.
This is the result of not being familiar with the operating regulations within the current political system of the Zhou Dynasty, including that the patrol censor can actually restrict the governor of water transport, and even influence the actions of the governor of water transport to a certain extent. This is another unexpected fact
accident.
Chen Jingxuan is unwilling to come forward, so how can he make a breakthrough? His life is saved now, but his goal is still far away.
Directly ask to see Li Sancai?
Will Li San take care of him?
Even if I see myself, so what?
I'm afraid that I will be dismissed with just a few words. If I want to win the other party's attention, I have to be "alarmist".
In addition, how to prevent Qiao Yingjia from getting in the way?
Qiao Yingjia's role as a patrol censor means that he has a lot of ability to make mistakes, but doing things is not within the scope of his responsibilities. He is more of a supervisory and restrictive authority.
In a word, he may not have much power to do things himself, but he can make things impossible for you. In short, he will fail more than he can accomplish.
I heard that Li Sancai was also a fastidious person, living in a living place to nourish his body, which was quite luxurious in his daily life. However, Qiao Yingjia should be keeping a close eye on him. Because of this, the two of them formed this deadlock.
But Li Sancai is a very courageous person who dares to do things, so for him to take action, there must be enough incentives, or motivation.
There are three warehouses in the inner city of Linqing, which are the most important places for grain storage and transportation. No matter whether there is grain in the warehouse now, once it is destroyed, it will have an impact on this year's grain transportation and storage. This should be regarded as a reason. But, can this be
Would Li Sancai be tempted?
Of course, there are hundreds of cavalry soldiers in the inner city, but given the attitude of the current Zhou Dynasty civil servants towards this type of cavalry soldiers, I am afraid they have not paid attention to them at all and are not worth mentioning.
The most important thing is that this group of bandits has never launched an attack on the inner city, but only focused on looting the outer city. Therefore, the reason for destroying Sancang may be a bit far-fetched, but it can also be said that we really have to wait until the religious bandits invade the inner city.
, it’s too late. The key lies in whether Li Sancai accepts this statement.
If the possibility of religious bandits entering the city is ruled out, in this case, how to suppress and exterminate these religious bandits is not the responsibility of Li Sancai, the governor of water transportation, but the responsibility of the Ministry of War and the battalions under the jurisdiction of Shandong Dusi, or Linqing.
The Bingbei Road governs the responsibilities of the garrison.
After much calculation, Feng Ziying could not figure out a more suitable method.
When leaving Chen Jingxuan's place, Feng Ziying also asked the other party to help him discuss the matter, but Feng Ziying was not sure.
This person is also an old man who has been in the official circles of the Zhou Dynasty for many years. How can he easily offend others? It is definitely impossible to provide help in times of need, but it is possible to add icing on the cake.
In other words, if Li Qiao and Li Qiao are in a stalemate, or if Li Sancai still has trouble making up his mind for a while, maybe the other party will help, but he can't count on anything else.
Zuo Liangyu watched Feng Ziying eating cage cakes and mutton very slowly, with a thoughtful look on her face. She knew that the other person was thinking about something, so she didn't dare to disturb him and drank the noodle soup quietly.
For Zuo Liangyu, the experience of these two days was really thrilling.
To be honest, he is not very afraid of bandits.
A young man like him who hangs out on the dock knows some people, whether it's the Lifu on the dock, the households in Wei's alley, or even the kiln workers outside the city.
As for the preaching bandits, he also roughly knew that these people were not as terrible as imagined. The kiln workers outside the city, the weavers in the city, and even the people inside the dock were actually people from the Naluo sect, either openly or secretly, and even in the yamen.
Some officials are aware of this situation.
Everyone turns a blind eye and as long as it doesn't cause big trouble, everything will be fine.
But this time it was different. No one had thought that Uncle Wang and the others originally just wanted to make a scene so that Eunuch Chang, who countless people wanted to sleep on his skin and eat his flesh, would restrain himself, but the Luo Jiao people were involved, and
It was obvious that many of them were from outside the city or even from other places, and the violent momentum they showed was unprecedented, almost threatening to openly rebel.
Especially seeing how the entire Linqing City was being ravaged by these violent and uncontrollable mobs of religious bandits, it was out of control. No matter how ignorant Zuo Liangyu was, he knew that something was going wrong.
The guards and Cao troops in the inner city did not dare to leave the city, and this time they came out to report for help. Seeing the dark expression on Brother Feng's face, it seemed that it was not going well. This made Zuo Liangyu feel a little incredible. Could it be that these officers and soldiers just watched it?
Watching the fall of Linqing City, everyone is still here leisurely and indifferent, and even refuses to send troops to teach the bandits to quell the chaos?
Zuo Liangyu's little mind must still not be able to figure out what the problem is here, but a seed of doubt has been unknowingly planted deep in his heart. It seems that the government is not as trustworthy as he originally imagined.
Already.
"Erlang, take this name card to the Shanshan Guild Hall and find a steward named Chu. Well, let's borrow three hundred taels of silver temporarily." Finally Feng Ziying made up her mind and decided to give it a try, even though she knew it was very difficult.
, but if you don’t try and just sit back and wait for these people to quarrel here, I’m afraid you will have to collect their bodies for them in three to five days.
"Ah? Shall I go?" Zuo Liangyu was surprised, happy and worried, three hundred taels of silver?! He had never even touched five taels of silver, but he suddenly asked himself to get three hundred taels of silver, asking him
Somewhat disbelieving, "Brother, can I do it?"
"If you don't give it a try, how do you know you're not good? This is what Butler Wang gave me. I don't have time. I have to meet someone first. You go to the Shanshan Guild Hall to find Manager Chu. Well, prepare three hundred
Two silver coins, and then ask him to take you to the best antique shop in Dongchang Mansion to wait for me, and I will come to you."
Relying on the identity of the former Datong Town Commander-in-Chief and the legitimate son of Shenwu General Feng Tang, Feng Ziying still succeeded in getting some help from the royal power. The Shanshan Liang Gang did not dare to have too close contact with Li Sancai for some unknown reason. Perhaps
There was Qiao Yingjia's reason, but for Feng Ziying, this was not a problem.
"But brother, I..." Zuo Liangyu felt hot and cold all over his body, and the steamed bun in his hand was crushed into a ball without even realizing it.
"Why, you can't find the Shanshan Guild Hall, but you still don't dare to meet people? Don't you boast that you have been to Dongchang Mansion several times? I don't know, don't you know how to ask?" Feng Ziying was not polite, "Let you go.
Meeting people does not require you to go to the execution ground, so what are you afraid of? Are you so afraid of meeting people?"
"No, brother, I'll go!" Zuo Liangyu was provoked by Feng Ziying, a flash of red flashed across his dark face, he puffed up his chest, stuffed the steamed bun into his mouth, took the famous calligraphy card that Feng Ziying gave him, and looked at it carefully.
He put it into his arms and said, "Brother, I'll wait for you."
"Yes." Feng Ziying also took a deep breath and stood up, "Store, check out."
I have no choice but to do this now. I misjudged the situation and now I have to take a risk.
Now Feng Ziying is extremely eager to have someone who understands the current situation in the water transportation yamen to help her introduce and plan.
Although Chen Jingxuan also said something, it was obvious that the friendship was not that deep, and it was impossible to tell him all the deep-seated things. Moreover, his age was indeed difficult for others to trust, so Feng Ziying could only figure out many things on her own.
.
Even though he had decades of experience as an official in his previous life, many things about being an official and a local official have not changed substantially throughout the ages. However, he has a deep understanding of the current administrative system of the Zhou Dynasty, especially the specific administrative power yamen.
The various operating modes are really unclear, so he really has no idea about many things. He doesn't know how to start, and he can even just touch blindly.
