Chapter 1378 Waiting is worse than gambling
In the early morning of the next day, the cool wind was bleak, and there was still a thin layer of mist in the sky, covering the trees that were still falling leaves in the distance. On the bumpkins not far away, clumps of withered yellow grass swayed in the cool wind, as if they were welcoming guests. Same.
Outside the Guo Guanyin Gate outside Yingtian City, Zhu Pingan, Chu Xiong and other officials from the Department of Prosecution, led by adults from Taiwan, gathered in the Changting Pavilion with the Chief Secretary and officials from the Sixth Ministry of Nanjing, waiting for the arrival of the new Zhejiang inspector and supervisor Hu Zongxian.
Officials from different yamen, under the leadership of their respective bosses, greeted each other face to face, and then waited in different areas.
The rising sun in the eastern sky is slowly rising, but there is still no movement on the official road in the north, and there are no people in sight.
The man from Chuxiong was fatter. After standing and waiting for a long time, his body couldn’t bear it, and he stretched out his hand to rub the thick waist of the bucket from time to time. He couldn’t help but half-complained and half-jokingly said, “Tsk, who would believe it in the previous court? We, a group of officials who started at the fifth rank, went out of the city early in the morning to welcome a seventh-rank official."
"Heh, Fatty Chu, do you dare to wait for the new Zhejiang inspector and supervisor to come and say this in front of him?"
Zhang Chufeng snorted, and spoke to Chu Xiong fiercely.
"Heh, I'm not stupid, so I won't fall for your tricks."
Chu Xiong snorted, glanced at Zhang Chufeng with narrowed eyes, and rolled his eyes in disdain.
Zhang Chufeng sneered, "Hehe, Fatty Chu, you also talk behind people's backs."
"No, you're wrong. I don't just say things behind people's backs, I also say them in front of people."
Chu Xiong stared at Zhang Chufeng with narrowed eyes, and said seriously.
Zhang Chufeng heheed disdainfully, expressing that he did not believe what Chu Xiong said.
"Don't you believe it?!" Chu Xiong grinned, "For example, for example, I often talk about you in front of you."
Hearing the words, Zhang Chufeng's face was as black as the bottom of a pot, and he turned his head to ignore Chu Xiong. Seeing this, Chu Xiong's big fat face smiled brighter, like a victorious rooster.
"Brother Zhu, why do you think our new Zhejiang inspector and supervisor Mr. Hu came so slowly? You can really hold your breath." Chu Xiong leaned in front of Zhu Pingan and whispered slightly complaining.
Zhu Ping'an smiled slightly, and replied softly, "I stipulated to the Taizu that the inspector and supervisory censor can only ride a donkey, not a horse. Mr. Hu came to his post on a donkey, so he was late."
Indeed, Hongwu Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang did stipulate that the supervisory censor can only ride a donkey when traveling, not a horse.
Because the inspector and supervisory censor was empowered with great power, Hongwu Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang avoided the expansion of the inspector and supervisory censor in order to balance. He not only limited the grade of the inspector and supervisory censor, but also made many restrictions in other aspects. In addition to not being able to ride a donkey when traveling, Emperor Hongwu also stipulated that inspectors and inspectors could not eat geese. In the era of Emperor Hongwu, geese were relatively rare and expensive, and banquets with goose meat were more luxurious. For example, Zhu Yuanzhang often rewarded goose meat to his courtiers to show his honor and favor. This is also the reason why everyone talks about the unofficial history that Zhu Yuanzhang rewarded Xu Da with roast goose, which caused Xu Da to die of back gangrene. Zhu Yuanzhang restricted the inspection and supervision censor from eating geese, because he restricted the inspection and supervision censor from the aspect of treatment.
However, any system is afraid of time. The original intention and hard work of Emperor Hongwu were ignored in later generations. In later generations, with the overall improvement of the status of civil servants and the expansion of the power of the Xunyan Yushi, the ropes that Emperor Hongwu bound on the Xunyan Yushi were gradually loosened, and the status and power of the Xunyan Yushi became stronger and stronger. Today, Xunyan Yushi can not only ride horses, but also eat goose meat, braised in soy sauce, steamed, or grilled as he likes. If the rules set by Taizu can really be implemented, how can the high-level people go out of the city to meet the low-level supervisory censor today?
If it goes further back, in the late Ming Dynasty, the inspector censor really became a powerful minister. Arrogance and extravagance, corruption and bribery, perverting the law and ruining the people are not uncommon.
However, Hu Zongxian is different.
Zhu Ping'an forgot to read that book, Hu Zongxian came to Zhejiang to take up the post of supervisory censor, he really came on a donkey.
Zhu Ping'an combined history books and unofficial history records and comments on Hu Zongxian, and has no doubts about this record.
"Hehe, Mr. Zhu has read a lot of books. However, the ancients said it well, it is better to have no books than to believe in books. Although the Taizu stipulated that the inspectors and censors can only ride donkeys and not horses when traveling, but those are old people. It's the calendar, now, the inspector and inspector censor can ride a horse and eat a goose." Zhang Chufeng said with a smile on the side.
"Really? Thank you Master Zhang for your enlightenment." Zhu Pingan twitched the corners of his mouth slightly, first cupped his hands to thank him, and then said honestly, "But I think Hu Yushi is late, maybe it is really according to the ancestors. He came riding a donkey."
"Still riding a donkey?! Hehe, Mr. Zhu is really young." Zhang Chufeng laughed endlessly.
"Hey, we're just waiting here. Anyway, we're just idle, why don't we come to Yabo."
Chu Xiong came up again, grinning.
"Yabo what?" Zhang Chufeng raised his eyebrows and asked, he lost to Chuxiong one hundred taels last time, and he still has it in his heart, and he has always wanted to win it back. When he heard Chuxiong talk about Yabo, he naturally became interested.
"Hey, just now, brother Zhu and Brother Zhang were discussing whether Hu Yushi will arrive on a donkey or a horse. Why don't we discuss whether Yabo and Hu Yushi will arrive on a donkey or a horse this time? It's also idle, Yabo kills the time, isn't it a joy?!"
Chu Xiong suggested with a grin.
"I have no opinion, but I don't know if Mr. Zhu dares to stick to his own opinion?" Zhang Chufeng twitched the corner of his mouth and said to Zhu Ping'an.
"It's not good on this occasion, right?" Zhu Pingan said with a simple and honest face.
"It's just Yabo, why not?! The last time Zhang Shangshu took office, we still bet on how many followers he brought?!"
Zhang Chufeng pouted unremittingly.
"That's right, brother Zhu, don't worry, there were several officials from the yamen participating last time. It's just Yabo, it doesn't hurt."
Chu Xiong also said with a smile.
"Really all right?!" Zhu Pingan confirmed with a simple and honest face.
"It's really all right." Zhang Chufeng nodded vigorously.
"Brother Zhu, don't worry. If there is any problem, brother, I will take care of it. I will make sure that little brother Zhu is safe."
Chu Xiong took over everything.
"Uh, big brother Chu has already talked about this point, little brother, I can only be respectful rather than obedient." Zhu Pingan nodded helplessly.
"Good." Zhang Chufeng smiled happily, and immediately said repeatedly, "It's hard to follow a gentleman's words, so it's a deal."
