Chapter 154 The government office has been troubled since then
After seeing off Zhao Liangli, Official Li was looking through the two case files that had just been reported, when another servant came in and reported: "The elder of the government ordered the younger one to come to ask questions. Now the whole government department is going to meet Shi Da outside the city."
After taking office, will Mr. Li go?"
Li You was afraid the day before yesterday and said he was going to pretend to be ill, but in the past two days he gradually thought about it. The soldiers came to block the water and cover the soil. The worst he could do was go home and wait for the opportunity to recover. Everything in the officialdom would never go as planned, even when he arrived in Zhao State.
Isn’t it true that people at this level like the Second Master also have times when they feel aggrieved?
But if you don't go to greet your boss because you have a grudge, you will break the rules and you will be picked on.
"Let's go together! Let's go together!" Li Tuiguan, who had made up his mind, replied.
It is said that a large army of government officials and yamen servants accompanied by one or two hundred soldiers met up with the county team and marched out of the city gate to the west.
Li You originally thought that he would just hold a ceremony at the receiving official pavilion outside Changmen, but unexpectedly it took a lot of effort to go ten miles out of the city before the procession stopped. It was already afternoon, and he couldn't help but criticize the old prefect Wang for being so flattering.
Others were prepared. They had eaten early or had snacks hidden in the sedan. Li Guan refused to go until the last minute and joined the team. He didn't know the specific arrangements, so he had no preparations. At this time, he felt hungry.
back.
He couldn't help complaining to the Wang Prefect, saying that participation in politics is divided into three grades, and you, the old man, are in the fourth grade. Although there is a superior-down relationship, the grades are only one and a half grades apart. They are really similar. It is not an imperial commission system, so it is wrong.
Are you going to mobilize an army and go out ten miles from the city to meet him?
In response to Li Tuiguan's irresponsible complaint, Prefect Wang reprimanded him: "You still have the nerve to say this! If it weren't for you, how could Shi Dacan have any prejudice against the government office? How could he be disrespectful at this time?"
Of course, it's just a joke. Even if there is no such thing, you still have to go ten miles from the city. It's not surprising that there are so many people. After all, in Jiangnan, where there is no chief envoy, participating in politics and being a minister can be regarded as a small official, and it is not as rustic as Fuzhou County.
Being a perfect local official is no longer a state.
Someone who inquired about the information rushed back and shouted: "It's coming! It's coming!"
There was nothing more to say after that, and everything went according to the agreed-upon ceremony. When the officials from the prefecture and county took turns to come forward to see him, Li Tuiguan was a little nervous, for fear that Shi's participation in politics would prevent him from stepping down.
However, Mr. Shi glanced at the onlookers and restrained himself from scolding** with the caution.
After picking up Shangguan, a group of people marched back to the city and sent Shi Shenzheng to the mansion.
At this time, those who are not qualified can go home. Those who are qualified, such as magistrates, tongzhi, tongpan, push officials, county magistrates and others, have the honor to continue to accompany the political participants to chat in the hall, while waiting for the dust-washing banquet in the evening.
I would rather not have this qualification at this time... Li Tuiguan, who was already hungry and dizzy after not eating a grain of rice all day, thought.
There is a problem or habit in the officialdom communication between the state and the dynasty. They like to talk about various friendships. The first one is Nian Yi. When they meet, they talk about their background in Kejia. Who comes first and who comes last, who is higher and who is lower, all have friendships.
Master Shi seemed to say casually: "I heard that the Wu District was at its peak. You are an official here. You must have been selected by the imperial court. Which department are you from?"
Hearing this, Wang Zhifu, who was chatting and laughing, suddenly changed his expression, and he and Li You glanced at each other. Among the seven people present, the old and the young were the only ones with a bad background. Wang Zhifu was a scholar, and Li You was promoted to a high school official.
It doesn't really matter, he just came from a civil service background.
Seeing the embarrassment of the prefect Wang, Li You almost wanted to laugh. This old man had been trying his best to flatter you for a long time. People like Shi Shenzheng would not give you face. But when he thought about how he was born in a worse situation, he felt a little sympathy for the same problem.
Talking about Nianyi's background is not just a random statement. If you know that the other person is illiterate and still ask him about his ranking in the scientific examination, wouldn't it be a slap in the face and humiliation?
Wang Zhifu is the main companion here in Suzhou Prefecture, but his background is low. Logically speaking, everyone should tacitly not mention his background in the imperial examination, and maintain a harmonious atmosphere. Mr. Shi has been in the officialdom for so many years. He is an upright official but not You idiot, don’t you even understand this rule?
It can only be said that Mr. Shi made the prefect Wang angry who was colluding with Li Tuiguan. Or what does this mean? It is very thought-provoking.
The prefect Wang got wise and stood up and said to Shi Shenzheng, "Go down and change your clothes." He urinated and ran away, but left Li Tuiguan here who was slowing down because he was laughing at the prefect Wang in his heart. Li You couldn't do the same thing. Just urinate and escape.
When everyone reported their families, it was found that Shen Tongzhi was the first to receive the top three Jinshi 200, Xia Tongxuan was the second highest Jinshi, Wenzhi County and Zhu County were both the second best Jinshi later... Li Tuiguan remained silent. Word.
The three two-ranked Jinshi, each one ranked first, immediately discussed matters with Shi Shenzheng. By the way, they changed their titles and kept talking about Senior... Li Tuiguan continued to be embarrassed and very uncomfortable.
Shen Tongzhi suddenly turned around and asked: "Since I took office here, I have been hearing about Mr. Li's talent. Why is it silent today? I wonder in which year Mr. Li was ranked high?"
In fact, everyone here knows that Li You was a civil servant, so Shen Tongzhi must ask about it openly in the current atmosphere, which is tantamount to a humiliation.
Li You was furious in his heart, suppressed his irritability (he was already suffering from hunger), and looked at Shen Tongzhi meaningfully. He didn't believe that Shen Tongzhi really didn't know his details. This was a clear sign to Shi Shenzheng that he wanted to surrender to Shi Shenzheng. .
At this time, Li You gradually became aware of Shi Shenzheng's thoughts. With a casual gesture of friendship, he and the prefect Wang separated from the crowd.
And it unknowingly aroused everyone's resentment. Why should a scholar and a white body suppress Jinshi and be promoted to prison? He has the highest status and the most power in the government? Normally, this feeling is buried deep in the heart and will not be exposed, but today Xu Nianyi Kedi was proposed by the boss anyway, so I can use it to vent my anger.
At the same time, this is also a hint, which does not damage Master Shi's image but also expresses Master Shi's position. Jiang Taigong's fishermen take the bait and intend to cater to this hint, and they will naturally express their opinions, such as this Shen Tongzhi.
Shen Tongzhi's idea is very simple. The scholar Wang Tongzhi can take over the position of Mao Zhifu, so why can't the Jinshi Shen Tongzhi take over the position of Wang Zhifu? Normally there is no way, but today I found that both Shangguan and Wang and Li were Very dissatisfied, isn't this an opportunity? What reason does he have to miss it?
After thinking about the situation, Li You sighed inwardly. Today, with Shi Shenzheng's casual manipulation, the government office has become troubled. Master Shi can just sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, and add firewood to the fire.
But Li You, a local official, might be afraid of Master Daotai, so he would not be afraid of his colleagues like Zhi Tongxuan. In the future, he would let them see what the power of the township party is. But at this critical moment, he cannot fall. If you lose your reputation, you can't help but laugh and curse again.
