The most powerful minister in the world

Let's say that the yamen servants rushed to the city twenty miles outside the city to inform the governor of Jiangnan Province and other officials that when Jingxi had entered the yamen, everyone slapped their heads, quickly got into the carriage, and hurried back.

When they returned to the government office, everyone first arranged their clothes at the door, and then Li Chang, the governor of Jiangnan Province, walked in.

Jingxi had heard the commotion a long time ago and hurriedly jumped down to the hall, took the hand of Mu Sheng who was sitting below and pushed him on the high hall. Mu Sheng was drinking tea and sat down in confusion.

Coincidentally, all the officials from Jiangnan Province had already walked in at this time. Jingxi grinned and muttered: "According to changes!"

After Jingxi said that, he walked down the hall. Li Chang glanced at the young man sitting in the hall who had a face like a crown jade, a very majestic appearance, and looked like an immortal. He thought that he must be the Jing family with such magnanimity. The second young master had no doubts, so he bent down and saluted: "Li Chang, the governor of Jiangnan Province, led all the officials to pay homage to the governor!"

Mu Sheng, who was sitting on the official chair in the hall, widened his eyes and winked at Jing Xi with all his strength, but Jing Xi Quan pretended not to notice.

Mu Sheng could only sigh and said, "Excuse me, my lords."

"Thank you, Lord Governor."

Li Chang straightened up and said with a smile: "Why didn't you take the official road to the east city, sir? I waited twenty miles out of the city to greet you, but I was worried."

Mu Sheng was about to speak, but Jing Xi, who was standing under the document, suddenly jumped out and shouted at the top of his lungs: "What's wrong, you are blaming our second son!"

Everyone in the hall was shocked, and they all looked at the young man who dared to rebuke the governor. They saw that this young man had a majestic appearance, a majestic appearance, and an aggressive look on his eyebrows.

Li Chang has been in the officialdom for decades, so he certainly has his abilities. He only heard this young man called the Second Young Master, and he must have been from the Governor's Mansion, so he smiled and said: "How could it be? I am just worried that the Second Young Master will be raped by someone." Harassment by bandits.”

"I have the nerve to say that our second son was almost kidnapped. You just want to go out of the city to meet someone who is twenty or thirty miles away. It's no use. Why don't you just send troops to escort him all the way?"

Jing Xi's words made all the officials turn pale, thinking: Who is this person? After all, we are also officials of the imperial court, how can we let you reprimand us?

However, the Governor-General in the hall did not express his position at all. He could only swallow his anger and let this domineering and unknown person spit.

"Yes, this officer didn't think well, please punish me, the Governor!"

Mu Sheng rolled up his sleeves and coughed twice to speak, but Jing Xi overtook him: "Our second young master has been tired from traveling and traveling all day, and he hasn't eaten yet. Please hurry up and prepare a table of good food in the Yamen. , I’ll tell you other things after eating!”

Jiangnan Dao officials were kicked out of the hall by Jing Xi and stood still in the outer courtyard. Looking at the door that slammed shut, Li Chang's mouth twitched. He looked back at the officials with livid faces and led them out with a sigh.

Half an hour later, the officials stood in twos and threes, watching the busy government officials move everything in the warehouse to other places, and brought in many new tables and chairs.

Yang Mingyi, the prefect of Dancheng, rubbed his face and listened to the abuse of his colleagues. He walked to Li Chang and said, "They say that the second son of the Jing family is arrogant and domineering. I originally thought that after all, he is from a family of military generals, so no matter how bad he is, he can't be much worse." , but just now I saw even one of my followers acting like this, it seems the rumors are true."

Yang Mingyi and Li Chang were from the same major. Li Chang was the number one scholar, but he only passed the imperial examination and became a Jinshi. This kind of friendship is naturally not comparable to that of other officials.

Li Chang was wearing a blue official uniform with a rusty brocade pattern. At this time, he shook his wide sleeves with both hands and sighed helplessly: "He does have the capital. Capturing the prince of the enemy country alive is enough to crush many military generals. His father has become the only first-grade military prince in our Southern Dynasty, and we cannot afford to offend him."

"Oh~ That's right. I just ask this young man not to bother you too much. If you finish messing with the gangsters smoothly, the two will have nothing to do with each other."

Li Chang snorted coldly and said: "It would be so easy. Others don't know, and we don't know how big the scale of the bandits is? Give them another two years to grow, and then they can start an uprising. How can it be so easy to stir up trouble?" Clean, not to mention..."

Yang Mingyi asked softly: "Have you thought of something? Oops, Lord Governor, we are from the same team, so we have to exchange information!"

"I guess this second son of the Jing family is not only a bandit suppresser. I have a distant relative who is a bachelor in Wenyuan Pavilion. He revealed to me that His Majesty has long wanted to take action against us in Jiangnan in recent years. This time he is here. I’m afraid I also received a secret order to investigate.”

Upon hearing this, Yang Mingyi took a deep breath, his eyes kept rolling, and the cold sweat on his back instantly soaked his clothes.

"Look at you like this. No matter how powerful he is on the battlefield, he is still a newbie in the officialdom. What are you afraid of him doing? As long as we become a team, can we change the world?"

"That's true, but there are always some careless people who will show their flaws. You know, we are in the pool of wealth, and no one is clean."

Li Chang looked back at the official who was cursing non-stop, and said with a slight curl of the corner of his mouth: "The governor has nothing to do with that. After I said hello, if anyone who doesn't have a good eye and touches the tip of the knife, don't blame us again. Make up for it with a knife."

"Gao, really brilliant. He is worthy of being the number one scholar back then."

Li Chang pressed Yang Mingyi's flattering hand and pulled him aside and whispered: "It's always right to be careful. This young man seems to be working here, so you have to be careful. After all, Jing Lixiao He is not someone who is easy to mess with. Isn’t the official in the two southern Xinjiang provinces as fearful as a tiger?"

"I understand. I don't want to see the black knight passing by us. I just cooperate fully."

"It's not just you, there are also letters from Huainan. Let's try our best to draw our attention there."

Yang Mingyi pinched his nose and said: "That old fox in Huainan has been a troublemaker for us all these years. It would be good to use this young man as a swordsman this time."

"Then it depends on your ability, but don't act recklessly recently. Everyone in Beijing is looking at us. That fool Xu Shuhe is so eager to make contributions, and we are also implicated. Fortunately, we were not punished this time. After all, we have to make some impressive achievements, otherwise the official uniforms we are wearing will be given to others."

The government officials were so tired that they just sat on the steps and dressed elegantly. The layout of this government office has not been changed for many years. What is the purpose of moving the warehouse out now? !

These low-level officials naturally don't know what the big guys like them are going through. With so little silver and food every month, they don't have enough brains to think about other things.
