Chapter two hundred and ninetieth: imperial decree to take people
Guilin had already received news that Liu Chengfeng would rest here when he returned to Beijing, but Governor Chen Jian felt it was very strange.
Chen Jian couldn't see through Liu Chengfeng. Logically speaking, Liu Chengfeng should be a very scheming guy. From his methods of dealing with King Jingjiang, he could be said to be working every step of the way, without any leakage, but Liu Chengfeng was obviously too impulsive when it comes to Annan.[]
In the officialdom, there is a truth that you must understand. You must never do what you cannot do. You must try to do as little as possible. You must never do what you have to do unless you have to. In fact, to put it bluntly, the fewer things you do, the fewer things you make, the less you make mistakes. This is the doctrine of the mean. After all, the more things you do, the more mistakes you make, and the more you will be caught.
Fortunately, the battle in Annan was won, and if it failed, it would not be fun.
But Liu Chengfeng, the guy, sent troops without hesitation, and didn't even say hello, scaring Chen Yan to death.
So Chen Jian couldn't see through Liu Chengfeng. He had made up his mind and it would be better to deal with this guy less. Don't look at his glory now. Who knows what he did again one day and what troubles he caused.
Chen Jian didn't want to deal with Liu Chengfeng, but Liu Chengfeng came. Everyone knew that from Lianzhou to the capital, there was no need to go through Guilin by water or land. Now that we took a detour, it was obvious that something was coming.
After receiving the report, Chen Jian pondered for a moment and decided to greet him well. After all, this guy is in his holy family. As the governor, Chen Jian doesn't have to ask for Liu Chengfeng's head, nor does he have to flatter him, but he can't offend this kid. Others may not know, at least Chen Jian knows that this guy's weight is not low.
It was noon when Liu Chengfeng arrived in Guilin, and the scorching sun was in the sky
Guilin Prefecture is particularly hot. On this official road, there are lush forests on both sides. Fortunately, there are many merchants along the way, which does not seem desolate. The officials of Guilin Prefecture all came out to greet him, which made people wonder who needs so many people from Guilin Prefecture to come out to greet him? This is surprising.
In fact, many people don’t want to come, but Chen Jian is willing to set an example, even the governor is here, so how can you remain indifferent?
In the distance, Liu Chengfeng's team had already appeared on the horizon. In fact, a short horse had arrived at the ten-mile long pavilion and reported it to me.
All the officials of all sizes and sizes in the long pavilion were cheered up, but Chen Jian took a few officials to drink tea at the inn.
The governor had already given him enough face to welcome the Marquis of Lianzhou. It was absolutely impossible for him to come out to greet him in person. It was too expensive, so after arriving here, he had a tea at the inn.
After Liu Chengfeng arrived, the governor of Guilin personally went to pick him up, and then led Liu Chengfeng directly to the post station. Liu Chengfeng looked dusty, with a little fatigue on his face, but his eyes were filled with a captivating spirit.
Liu Chengfeng pressed the sword and walked in quickly. The one on his waist was Qin Guihuang sword. He would not feel rude when he met with someone with weapons. As soon as Liu Chengfeng showed up, Chen Yan stood up from the chair and said to Liu Chengfeng with a smile: "Marquis of Lianzhou."
If you have any mistakes, you will forgive your sins.”
I thought Liu Chengfeng would greet him with a polite smile at this time, but Chen Jian had even thought of a function word that should continue to be polite. Who knew that Liu Chengfeng's face was pulled down, he glanced at Chen Jian, then pressed his sword and walked a few steps in the hall, and his eyes were occasionally directed at several important Guangxi figures in the hall, and then he said seriously: "Who is the governor Chen Jian?"
Although Liu Chengfeng and Chen Jian had never met each other, they had been famous for a long time. Moreover, Chen Jian was wearing a Dahong official, and he was obviously a third-rank official in the court. In this hall, other officials were surrounded by stars and seemed to be surrounded by him. As long as they were humans, it was obvious that Chen Jian was the governor.
But Liu Chengfeng asked him in a blunt manner, and Chen Jian's face with a smile suddenly pulled down. He was not bad at treating Liu Chengfeng. The governor personally went out of the city to greet him. Unexpectedly, this guy was so ignorant that he deliberately kept his distance from him and his words were very rude.
The other officials were stunned when they saw this and couldn't help but look at Liu Chengfeng curiously, thinking that this guy was simply a fool. Even if you, the Marquis of Lianzhou, have to maintain this seemingly politeness, let alone the governor, there is no way that makes you feel dissatisfied. You are so rude, isn't this slapping the governor in the face?
Chen Jian wanted to have an attack, and even wanted to leave, but after pondering for a moment, he still held it back. It wasn't that he was really afraid of Liu Chengfeng, but he just felt that doing this would inevitably seem a bit petty. How could a dignified governor be looked down upon?
Chen Jian smiled and said lightly: "Liu Qianhu, I am the governor."
This sentence is still very polite on the surface, but the words are used in particular. You do not call Liu Chengfeng the Marquis of Lianzhou, but call Liu Chengfeng the palace position, while you call yourself the original official. The meaning of this is that you are a little sixth-rank military officer, but I am a third-rank official of the court. You are too unruly like this.
However, Liu Chengfeng did not seem to have heard Chen Jian's voiceover. Instead, he did not restrain his arrogant attitude, but he became even more rude. He nodded and said, "So you are, that's great. I am about to find you!"
Chen Jian's lungs almost burst into anger. This guy was really a big tone.
Liu Chengfeng continued, "Governor Chen, do you know that this time this marquis came to Lianzhou, but he came to the secret order?"
Chen Jian wanted to ignore Liu Chengfeng and couldn't help thinking, "You have received the secret order, didn't I have accepted the order? Don't forget that the governor's position is to "pass the world and do whatever the people are to govern the army and the people..." In other words, almost every governor comes from the capital to take office as an imperial envoy. Liu Chengfeng said that he has received the secret order, and Chen Jian is not afraid of anything. Everyone represents the emperor, and who is afraid of who will come.
Chen Jian sat on the chair, his eyes half open and half closed, holding a teacup in his hand, a sneer flashed across his face, and then said, "Oh? Is that right?"
This means that Chen Jian had never heard of this, and also told Liu Chengfeng that he should be arrogant here.
Liu Chengfeng looked at Chen Jian and said, "If Governor Chen doesn't believe it, you can naturally read the imperial edict. Now the Japanese marquis comes to the imperial edict, so he asks the governor to immediately summon the city's servants, military households, etc., and follow this marquis to get people!"
Chen Jian was stunned for a moment, and was still angry just now. Now that he heard that he was going to pick up people, he was no longer interested in calculating, and couldn't help but say, "Who is it?"
When he asked this, Chen Jian felt a little regretful and couldn't help but wonder, what's wrong with the official now, why is he so frivolous? After asking this sentence, he really has a bit of a governor's demeanor. It's not that he can't ask, but this answer can be easily guessed, and Chen Jian seemed a little too anxious when he asked this.
Who else can be allowed to come to Guilin Mansion in person and ask his governor to follow him to get the people. Who else can besides King Jingjiang in Guilin City?
Chen Jian took a deep breath and couldn't help but feel a little annoyed. He had to use the opportunity of drinking tea to cover up his embarrassment.
Chen Jian then looked at Liu Chengfeng, and then suddenly realized that Liu Chengfeng was probably going to kill the King of Jingjiang. This guy's methods were so cruel that even the vassal kings dared to eradicate the roots. The reason why his attitude was so indifferent to him was clearly because this guy gave him a way out. Think about it, can the governor follow the Marquis of Lianzhou make trouble? Liu Chengfeng can make trouble because he is the Jinyiwei, but the governor cannot.
Therefore, Liu Chengfeng was cold and directly brought out the secret order. To the outside world, Chen Jian was under the pressure of the secret order and had to surrender, at least he gave others an explanation.
Liu Chengfeng is acting...
Chen Jian's mind had this thought, so he stopped asking more questions. Of course, the fewer the questions were asked, the better, so as not to be implicated in his head. He quickly stood up and said, "Since it is a secret order to take people, the official will naturally give the marquis a little convenience. I wonder how many marquises he wants?"
Chen Jian suddenly called Liu Chengfeng the Marquis again without changing his expression. This was to send a signal to Liu Chengfeng. Liu Chengfeng meant that he understood. In his heart, Chen Jian had to admire Liu Chengfeng a little bit. Liu Chengfeng did this, and he was quite interested in taking all the responsibilities himself, and let Su Yan not get deeply involved. This guy was still a bit loyal.
As for Liu Chengfeng going to take King Jingjiang, Chen Jian naturally agreed with both hands. In the past few months, Chen Jian offended King Jingjiang to death. He could only eliminate the roots without leaving any troubles. Now Liu Chengfeng is going to be ruthless, and Chen Jian cannot ask for it.
Liu Chengfeng said: "The more people, the better. The thief has a large number of guards. If a mess is caused, it is better to suppress it on the spot. Without further ado, if the news is leaked, it will inevitably cause trouble. Governor Chen, can the matter be done within one hour?"
Chen Jianshen glanced at Liu Chengfeng, then nodded and said, "There should be no mistakes."
Afterwards, Chen Jian immediately took the officials in the hall out of the inn to prepare. Liu Chengfeng sat in the hall of the inn and drank a bit of tea tiredly. After two days of travel, he was overdrawn, so he seized the opportunity and quickly rested for a while.
"This Chen Yan..."
Lying on the chair, Liu Chengfeng thought to himself: "I'm sure I can't wait to be this guy who stands out by myself."
