Chapter 236: Lure the Tiger Out of the Mountains
Sun Shaozong has been busy for more than ten days since he returned after celebrating Lin Daiyu's birthday.
First of all, his son's monthsary banquet took more than four days, from preparation to inventory afterward.
On February 15, there were a lot of friends who attended, and the gifts were piled up in the living room, bringing tears to the face of the housekeeper, who said that he had not seen such a bustling atmosphere in the mansion in years.
By February 18, after three examinations in nine days, the final examination of this year had finally come to an end.
Yu Qian and Sun Chengtao just returned, but they seemed a little depressed and calm. But Sun Chengye locked himself in the house after returning to the mansion and refused to eat or drink.
In the end, Sun Shaozu was annoyed. He kicked the door open, pulled him out of the room, and poured half a kilogram of alcohol. At that time, his whole person became a hundred times more "spiritual!"
He was stumbling in the yard, and kept swearing. Thousands of words were blurted out. The entire time he was swearing, his words didnt contain a dirty word, which was amazing.
Although Sun Shaozong didn't understand who Sun Chengye was scolding at the end of the exam, his heart was filled with regret. Had he known that, when he was in the exam, he would have mixed some wine in a pot, wouldn't he have finished the article splendidly?
In the next few days, Sun Shaozong would also prepare for the party of the same year, choosing a day, booking a restaurant, posting, arranging seats
First, he was busy and dizzy, and then he drank in the dark.
When Sun Shaozong woke up at noon the next day, his only memory of the party was Xu Tai's face full of shame. He said that he was ready to resign and apologize for his guilt. Who would ever think that Minister Wang was generous and even recommended himself to serve in the military department on the table, which was really the prime minister's breadth of mind?
In fact, it was also human nature in the officialdom to be attached to the dignitaries. When the Sun family was established, didn't they go to the Rongguo Mansion every three or five days?
But the problem was that Xu Tai wrote a letter to scold Wang Ziteng, and then he turned his face and held the other party to the sky again. This change was really fast, so it was no wonder that people found it hard to accept it in the same year.
Especially at the beginning, he was famous for his fearlessness
Not to mention the original book.
The next day, on February 26, Sun Shaozong had just arrived at the government office and was about to go to the Criminal Department office to be on duty when he saw an officer of the government jump out of the corner, saying that Han Anbang had something to ask him and asked him to come to his courtyard to discuss it.
Sun Shaozong followed the petty official to the main courtyard of Han Anbang. Instead of waiting in the room, he placed a pot of tea in the pavilion at the southwest corner of the courtyard.
"Greetings to the Minister."
Sun Shaozong came forward and saluted, "What do you want to discuss by summoning me?"
This was the concrete manifestation of the status change. When Han Anbang called him to come, he wouldnt use the words "discussing official matters." After his greetings, Sun Shaozong could only ask him What is your order? instead of What is the matter?
"Sit down and talk."
Han Anbang falsely stood up and guided him. When Sun Shaozong put his butt on the opposite stone pier, he filled two cups of green tea and then said plainly, "In fact, I have a matter to ask Lord Sun to come here this time."
Something to ask?
If it was within the scope of the Criminal Division, it was impossible to use these words.
Sun Shaozong immediately raised his vigilance, but on the surface, he asked without showing, "What is it that you want to entrust me with?"
"You should have read the latest newspaper too, right?"
Han Anbang then said, "The official documents of the merger of Hebei and the Central Judicial Office in Zhili Province have been approved. First, there are some new regulations in the Governor's Office, which should be announced to the following people. Second, they also want to take the opportunity to hold a ceremony and make some noise, so they hope that all governments can send people to participate in it."
"But now the spring plowing is coming, and the Prefectures everywhere are afraid that they wont be able to attend. Magistrate Jia can't get away for a while, so I want to send you to the Governor's Mansion. What do you think about this?"
Tch!
No wonder Wei Ruolan has been honest recently. He was waiting for a good chance to "lure the tiger away from the mountain!"
Sun Shaozong smiled, but his face was still silent. "May I ask where the Governor's Office is, when should I leave if I want to go, and how many days should I stay in the Governor's Office?"
Han Anbang replied one by one, "The Governor's Office was changed from the original location. It is still near the Sancha estuary in Jinmen, and the date set in the provincial official documents is between the fifth and the tenth day of the next month."
"According to my idea, you can set off on the road on the first day of next month and arrive at Jinmen two days ahead of schedule. First, it seems that our government attaches importance to it, and second, it comes and goes earlier, so as not to be said that we strive to impress people."
With that, he shook his head and sighed. "It's really hard for us to be the officials of the Capital!"
Let's be feisty.
Sun Shaozong was so sour that he counted his fingers falsely. His eyebrows gradually wrinkled, and he hesitated. "Isn't this inappropriate? You should know that my Elder Brother will get married on March 18. I'm his only brother, so I have to help him..."
"Don't worry!"
Since Han Anbang came prepared, how could he not know this?
Hearing that he didn't want to, he patted his chest and promised, "Since you are going to work for our office, if there is any difficulty with your Elder Brother's marriage, Magistrate Jia and I will help!"
With that, he stood up and saluted, "This trip is related to the distance between our Central Judicial Office and the Governor's Office. Sending others to go there cant seem to be enough weight. On the other hand, I can't rest assured, so I can only ask for your favor."
Hehe~
Sun Shaozong couldnt help but sneer twice. It seemed that he couldnt reject this errand.
He just didnt know what Wei Ruolan would prepare after he left.
He sighed and said helplessly, "Since you have mentioned, I have no excuse anymore. Please issue an official certificate and send it to my Criminal Division Office. I can also become famous during this trip."
"Of course, of course!"
Han Anbang had prepared many means to force Sun Shaozong to leave the Capital.
However, Sun Shaozong had already agreed to his orders before he could show them. He was naturally overjoyed, so he nodded hurriedly. "In a moment, I will have the official certificate sent to you, and the official documents sent by the Governor's Office will also be transferred to the Criminal Division."
This Minister Han still lacked some moral deeds. If he were the old fox, Jia Yucun, he wouldnt show his thrill.
Sun Shaozong went out of the main hall. The first thought in his mind was not what Wei Ruolan had done, but what Xue Pan had said at the beginning, Second Brother can come to my wedding when you are free.
He predicted it!
