Chapter 468: Zuo Shilang
In this state, the Ministry of Industry has been unable to work normally, many people have asked for leave, and Guo Wenying simply went home. I slept at home for a day, and the next morning I came to the yamen in good spirits.
Only this day, the court has undergone earth-shaking changes, the Ministry of Industry Shangshu Jiang Minghe and the left waiter Lang Qi Huaishan were put into the prison of the Criminal Department, the rest of the Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of Households, the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Punishment, all began to be examined to varying degrees, the court has Dali Temple and the Metropolitan Procuratorate set up a special supervision department, as a temporary supervision agency, the various income and expenditure accounts of the six departments, account books, and the appointment and dismissal of officials and personnel have been carefully reviewed.
For a while, everyone in the six departments was in danger, and some people made up a children's song for this reason, saying that it was "good to be an official, good to be an official, difficult to be an official in Beijing, difficult to be an official in Beijing, especially difficult in the six departments, I would rather be a county order than a Beijing official, and I would rather be a Beijing official than enter the six departments." It can be seen how difficult it is for these six officials to do.
Fortunately, this large-scale review did not last long, because the next was the triennial imperial examination, and in order to maintain the stability of the capital, this thrilling review was finally eliminated. A group of officials from the Sixth Ministry finally breathed a long sigh of relief, and every household set off firecrackers to celebrate their final liberation.
Even so, there are still many officials who have fallen from power, and there are not a few who have been found to have various problems, and the Ministry of Education and Punishment has decided that the people who have been killed at the entrance of the vegetable market have accumulated a lot of blood seeping into the soil.
Many people behind their backs said that this time the Jinshi in the imperial examination were blessed, and so many official positions were vacated by the Sixth Ministry, which happened to be prepared for these new Jinshi.
At the same time, the imperial court also made an adjustment to the appointment and dismissal of officials, especially the Ministry of Industry, which lost the most people this time, and some people were promoted. The secretary of the Ministry of Industry was exempted from the appointment of Hu De, the former head of the Ministry of Households, and Guo Wenying was appointed by the left waiter of the Ministry of Industry.
As soon as the holy decree was issued, the entire Ministry of Industry was in an uproar, no one thought that Guo Wenying would be appointed as a left waiter, and they all pointed fingers at her back, saying that she was outsourcing to raise a play, and she was still unclear with the emperor, and even played in the imperial history, saying that Guo Wenying had problems with her private morality and could not be appointed as a waiter.
However, the imperial historian was called into the imperial study by the emperor to chat for a day, and when he came out again, he didn't even dare to let out a fart.
Speaking of Hu Defu, he is still an old friend of Guo Wenying, no, an old enemy. At the beginning, in order to raise food, she took Hu Defu, who was then the household servant, out of the bed, and even scared Hu Defu out of illness, and he didn't dare to go out alone at night for a while.
Hu Defu saw that it was Guo Wenying who was his deputy, and he didn't dare to enter the door of the Ministry of Industry, so he took three days of sick leave, and it took several days to report to the Ministry of Industry. On the first day, a meeting of officials from the Ministry of Industry was convened, and he didn't even dare to look at Guo Wenying.
In fact, he is not timid, but the booklet with his various bad deeds was given to him by Guo Wenying, which means that Guo Wenying knows everything he has done, and he is on the cusp of this, he is really afraid that Guo Wenying will shake him out. What's more, people are the emperor's henchmen, henchmen of henchmen, how dare he offend. Looking at how miserable Jiang Minghe and Qi Huaishan's fate was, you know that the most unoffending person in this Ministry of Industry is Guo Wenying.
Therefore, the day after he took office, he called Guo Wenying to the front, moved with affection, and understood with reason, which probably means that in the future, you can walk sideways in the Ministry of Industry, and he will never interfere with whatever you want.
Guo Wenying really couldn't laugh or cry at his attitude, but it just so happened that she was going to reform some rules and regulations of the Ministry of Industry, and no one interfered to stop her, which made it more convenient for her to start.
The decree of the imperial court has been issued, and she only needs to go to the Ministry of Officials to receive the documents and official seals, and complete the formalities for taking office, and she is the official squire of the Ministry of Works. Nanqi respects the left, and her left waiter is half a grid taller than Deng Jiucheng's right waiter, and it is rare for a woman to be able to do her job.
Guo Wenying has been promoted several levels in a row, and the official uniform on her body has changed from purple to red. The difference between it and the previous unicorn military uniform is that the simplicity on the official uniform is different. The civil officials wore a first-grade scarlet robe embroidered with cranes, a second-grade scarlet robe embroidered with brocade chickens, a third-grade scarlet robe embroidered with peacocks, a fourth-grade scarlet robe embroidered with clouds and geese, a fifth-grade green robe embroidered with white pheasants, a sixth-grade green robe embroidered with a heron, a seventh-grade green robe embroidered with a brook, an eighth-grade green robe embroidered with a yellow oriole, and a ninth-grade green robe embroidered with a quail.
She is now a three-grade civil official, Puzi in the middle of the clothes is a peacock with the screen open, her regular clothes and official clothes are specially customized, although they are all black gauze hats, regimental collar shirts, and belts, but compared with other official uniforms, the workmanship is more exquisite, and the size has also been modified to a size suitable for her.
This special official uniform was personally brought by Xu Mao, and after reading out a holy decree, he respectfully presented it to her, saying that it was a generous gift from the emperor.
She opened it and saw that the box contained two official uniforms, one official and one regular, she suddenly remembered that last time he tore her official uniform, and vowed to give her a better one another day. It seems that this is also the fulfillment of the promise.
She changed into an official uniform and went to the ministry to get the seal letter first, and just wanted to see her uncle, so she didn't send anyone, and went to the ministry in a sedan chair.
This is the second time she has come to the Yamen of the Ministry of Officials, the first time is that the first emperor sealed General Huaiyuan, and this time she has confirmed the position of the third rank of the servant. It can be said that she is the only one who officially becomes an official as a daughter, and it is even more rare in the world to be able to change from a military attache to a civilian official.
Like last time, as soon as she stepped into the yamen of the ministry, she made people look at the Western scenery, and I don't know how many pairs of eyes glanced over and pointed at her back.
Guo Wenying was used to being looked down upon, but she didn't pay much attention to it, so she first went to see Guo Wenqing, the lobby brother, and took the seal letter from him.
Unexpectedly, Guo Wenqing was also like the gang outside, surprised by her scarlet official uniform, and said repeatedly: "Wen Ying, you said that if you look like this if you go around the capital, I don't know how many people will surround you to see it." ”
Guo Wenying glanced at him, "How come my cousin has learned to tease me like those outside who have never seen the world?"
Guo Wenqing sighed, "What if I see the world again? You are also the first in the world, so it's strange that people don't die rarely. ”
Guo Wenying ignored him, and everyone in her family looked at her in this way, let alone those outsiders. She was blocked for three grades, and she jumped several levels in a row, and there may be how many people are jealous behind her back, and they want to see her unlucky.
came out of Guo Wenqing's public house, Guo Wenying went to see Lu Junqing.
Lu Junqing was discussing with an official, and when he saw her come in, he couldn't help but smile, "Lord Lang of the Ministry of Industry is here, what a rare guest." He waved his hand, and the official retreated, and when he went out, he couldn't help but look back at Guo Wenying again.
