Chapter 1177: The imperial decree arrives

Seeing Ye Jing looking at himself with a smile, Ye Chunqiu knew that Ye Jing had many insights when he had experienced in Ningxia this time.

Ye Chunqiu showed a little childish side at this moment. While walking down, he deliberately stepped on the puddle after the melting snow with his boots and said, "I'll ask my father for advice."

Hearing Ye Chunqiu ask himself, Ye Jing's eyes became deep and said, "The reason why the court carefully recalled his husband to the capital and then sent him to Liaodong was not because he was important for his father, but because there were too few people who were willing to do things in this court. Now everyone wants to be a clear stream. My best talent in the Ming Dynasty hopes to be a Hanlin, at least, at least, at least as a scholar or a censor. Again, it is to be a local prefect, a governor, or a judge, and a punishment. However, there are very few soldiers in charge who are put in the border town to deal with military men. This is like going from the clear to the turbid, like a lotus falling into the mud, haha..."

Ye Jing sniffed, and exhaled white air from his mouth. He watched the white air slowly dissipate in the space and his eyebrows gradually became deeper. Obviously, because of his trip to Ningxia, he could have a deeper understanding of the world more clearly and intuitively.

If he just kept studying behind closed doors, it would be difficult to see different things, and it would be difficult to have such an understanding. It is precisely because of this that Ye Jing seemed worried, because in the past, he had seen too many flowers on one side, but he really saw the darkness and filth on the other side, which made his former thoughts begin to shake.

After a while, seeing Ye Chunqiu not speaking, Ye Jing said again: "So, although my father has mediocre qualifications, he is rare to be down-to-earth. The most lacking thing in the court may not be those innocent people, nor those civil servants who have been transferred to border towns. In Ningxia, there are not without civil servants. But they are talking about war on paper and treating the saint's books. How can this be done? It's ridiculous to say that when I arrived in Ningxia, I realized that the classics of the saints were completely useless, but the most important thing in the Ming Dynasty was the Analects of Confucius."

Ye Chunqiu smiled at this time and finally said, "This is like the great edict of Emperor Taizu Gao. Even though he knew that the world situation had changed, Taizu's prescription for governing the country had long become a useless thing, but many people understand that they cannot say it or dare not say it. So everyone pretended to be familiar with the great edict, but when it was time to do things, they put this great edict aside. This is probably the case in the world, but it seems ridiculous, but there is no way to do anything."

"Yes, there is nothing to do." Ye Jing nodded and responded, silent for a while before continuing: "I don't know what the situation is when I go to Liaodong this time. I hope that my father can be the court, of course... it is also for you..." Speaking of this, he looked at Ye Chunqiu deeply, with a firm look in his eyes, and said: "Do something."

Ye Jing's words made Ye Chunqiu feel moved, but he didn't say anything.

Since the father and son became officials, they have less time to spend together, and many times they are thousands of miles apart. However, when will the father-son family relationship that depended on each other have not changed? Even though Ye Chunqiu knew that his father was not the kind of exquisite person, he believed that his father was kind to him and understood more clearly that this kind of intention had become the driving force for Ye Jing's struggle.

Ye Chunqiu was moved, but he was proud of his father.

Just as I was thinking, I suddenly heard a sound of horse hooves. When I looked up, I saw a pegasus coming from the front. The leader was a ritual officer and several guards behind me.

When the man saw Ye Chunqiu and his son, he gasped and got off the horse, and said seriously: "Ye Jing, the young minister of Dali Temple, has an order."

The father and son had not returned home yet. At this time, they had just arrived at the alley near the Ye family. This was an order. Ye Chunqiu felt that it was too anxious.

Although it was clear today, the ground was still muddy. Seeing that the other party was anxious, Ye Jing did not dare to delay, so he bowed to the ground and said, "I received the order."

Ye Chunqiu stood aside and frowned. The ground was cold and the muddy with snow. At this moment, my father's clothes were already dirty and very embarrassed.

The ritual official seemed to understand this point, without any unnecessary nonsense, and quickly issued an imperial edict, saying: "The Emperor of Ming Dynasty ordered Ye Jing, the young minister of Dali Temple, to be brave enough to serve, and he could not get more. Now the famine in Liaodong is very urgent. He ordered Shaoqing of Dali Temple to be the right deputy chief censor of the Censorate, and the imperial envoy to govern Liaodong, to arbitrarily punish military and civilian affairs, and to set out today without any mistakes."

Governor of Liaodong...

The position of governor is not a formal official position, at least not at this time, it is just like an imperial envoy. Just like an ordinary censor, he has to patrol the various prefectures and is called a patrol.

Naturally, Ye Jing went to Liaodong in the name of an inspector, because the small censor could not suppress the scene at all, so he was promoted from Shaoqing of Dali Temple to the right deputy censor of the Censorate, which was equivalent to being promoted to a little minor official, but his real responsibility was to go to the governor of the Liaodong Dushi in the name of a senior official of the Censorate.

The position of governor was just a temporary dispatch, and it was only after decades that it truly became synonymous with the chief officials in the border areas.

However, he was a governor and at the same level, he was a core official of the Censorate. Therefore, when he arrived at the local area, he had the ability to compete with the Hedusi Yamen, and at the same time he was the imperial envoy. This was equivalent to the court giving Ye Jing the right to be arbitrarily. From now on, Ye Jing had the final say in Liaodong.

only……

When Ye Jing received the order, Ye Chunqiu couldn't help but ask the ritual officer: "I dare to ask, why did the imperial edict come so quickly? What is the purpose of setting off today?"

The official said: "The military information that just came to Liaodong was said to be a mutiny in the Liaozhongwei. Although it was suppressed, if the court did not send an imperial envoy to appease him, it would be a big deal. The cabinet ministers went to meet the saint early in the morning, probably hoping that Governor Ye would set off immediately, for fear that he would change if he was late."

Ye Jing smiled instead and said to the official ritual humbly: "I'm sorry."

After saying that, he accepted the imperial edict and said to Ye Chunqiu: "Then I will enter the palace immediately to thank you for your father. Before leaving, I am afraid I will have to go to the cabinet." As he said, he seemed to have thought of something, with a little regret on his face. He thought for a moment, and said, "Let's go tomorrow at dawn. Chunqiu is now joining the palace with your father to thank you for your gratitude, how about it?"
