The most feared of the ancient officials was the constitutional officer in charge of discipline, and later generations called the law enforcement officer, especially in the Ming Dynasty. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info is greedy for the power in the hands of others, and the chilling thing is that his hands and feet are not clean.

When the people of the Metropolitan Procuratorate go to the locality, all the officials are afraid, because the Metropolitan Procuratorate is the procuratorate, court and discipline inspection commission of the Ming Dynasty, the highest legislative organ of the country and the law enforcement agency, a three-in-one type, who is not afraid of such an official? Of course, the Metropolitan Procuratorate is generally only aimed at officials, and civil criminal cases are still handled by the local government and the Dali Temple of the Criminal Department.

Lian Daning didn't pretend to be poor anymore, and happily took out a thousand taels of silver to give a reward to his subordinates, and then booked a few tables of banquets in the lion building, the best restaurant in Suzhou, and feasted on the right capital of Yushi, picked up the wind and washed the dust, and said that he would give Fang Buzhan a meal one day, and Fang Buzhan was a little disgusted.

The two Du Yushi were not happy, especially the right Du Yushi was holding a sulk in his chest, this time the Metropolitan Procuratorate and the Criminal Department were deflated in the cabinet, as the deputy chief of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, he naturally had no light on his face, and he had to be cheeky to pass on the decree, and his heart was not even better.

Fang Buzhan was still a little puzzled before, but he knew the situation of the six departments of the imperial court cabinet well, and after a little analysis, he already understood most of them, but he didn't know who could have such a level, and he actually overturned the settings made by the Criminal Department of the Metropolitan Procuratorate and the cabinet!

In the middle of the banquet, Yushi of the right capital found a gap and only said to him: "The high arch is anti-water." ”

Fang Buzhan immediately understood, and secretly scolded in his heart, bastard!

He didn't understand why Gao Gong wanted to turn against the water, one of the purposes of his coming to Suzhou this time was also to pave the way for his disciples by Gao Gong's entrustment, Wei Gao's smooth career will inevitably return to his teacher in the future. Gao Gong is backing the water in this situation, is it really a lot of pressure?

Fang Buzhan knew that the Criminal Department and the Metropolitan Procuratorate had some mismatch, and the two families often quarreled in the imperial court over matters within their purview, because the Metropolitan Procuratorate often sent officials to inspect the localities, and many cases that should have been handled by the Criminal Department were robbed by the Metropolitan Procuratorate. The people of the Metropolitan Procuratorate think very highly of themselves, and some of them look down on the Criminal Department, and the two families have been at odds for a long time.

This time, the two joined forces, firstly, because the cases they wanted to handle collided together, and secondly, because Gao Gong tied them together in the name of His Royal Highness King Yu. If there is no voice from King Yu, the cabinet will not ignore Shoufu's face, and dealing with his disciples is equivalent to slapping him in the face, which is a very clear reason.

It seems that it is not the high arch that is backing the water, but His Royal Highness King Yu has changed his mind. Fang Buzhan thought in his heart, no, it's not that His Highness has changed his mind, but that Gao Gong has falsely passed on the holy decree before, maybe His Highness has made a clear will this time, and Gao Gong has to obey it.

However, His Royal Highness is the prince, this position is too delicate, and he generally does not speak to anything, so as not to be suspected of setting up the emperor, who has such great ability to make His Royal Highness King Yu speak?

It is said that Nanjing's envoy has not reached his term of office at all, and he has not made any mistakes, so why is there a vacancy? However, I heard from the imperial history of the right capital that the Nanjing envoy has been transferred to Henan according to the envoy, and the holy decree has also been issued. In this way, things must not only pass through the cabinet, but also through the ministry, which is the head of the six ministries, and the secretary is known as Tsukasa Zai, which is the prime minister.

This is not a false name, the official department has always been the most honorable of the six scholars, and generally to achieve this position, it is inevitable that he will also serve as a cabinet scholar. But the other five Shangshu may not be able to enter the cabinet, maybe the following squire can enter the cabinet to worship the prime minister, it depends on the emperor's meaning.

Fang Buzhan is not a fool, although he has been away from the capital for a long time, but the political situation cannot be changed in a few days, it is not difficult for him to analyze this matter at all, but he just can't think of any big man in the capital who has this ability and interest. He never imagined that it would be Chen Musa, he always thought that Chen Musa was just relying on a proud protégé to play prestige with the power of Zhongshan Palace.

"Lord Lian, the lower official respects you with a glass of wine, congratulations on your promotion."

At this time, no matter how crazy Wei Gao was, he didn't dare to play Tai Chi with Lian Daning, but the standard etiquette of a subordinate meeting his boss.

"Brother Fengzu, it's easy to say, I'm happy. Isn't Brother Feng also promoted this time? Lian Daning was happy in his heart, and he didn't care about the difficulties that this person had made for him before, so he had to get by.

"Lord Fang has returned to Beijing this time to report on his work, the emperor must be happy, and he must be promoted, right?" Lian Daning smiled at Fang Buzhan, who was contemplative next to him, with a wine glass.

"If you don't do things well, it's good if you don't even go down three levels, it's not as good as you, brother, not only do you have a backer, but you are also very hard." Fang Buzhan leaned back on the soft chair, yin and yang strange qidao.

Lian Daning didn't dare to be too embarrassed, although he was also a law enforcement officer, but in front of the two imperial histories of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, he was still a low-ranking official, and he must not get carried away, so he hurriedly stepped forward and bowed.

Lian Daning is also half sober and half drunk now, and the water in the capital is too deep, and it is difficult to explore to the end if he does not reach the level of his teacher Xu Jie. At that time, Yan Song's father and son thought that everything was under their control, but they were drowned by Xu Jie and several Taoist priests in the palace. This incident is a profound lesson for all officials, can you still beat Yan Song no matter how good you are?

The next day, the two imperial historians set off to return to Beijing, Lian Daning and Wei Gao led the new and old staff and the yamen messengers to the ten-mile long pavilion outside the city, and drank the candied wine, and then watched the two adults leave with a hum.

On the night of the arrival of the holy decree, Wei Gao quickly signed the handover document, and never mentioned the deficit again, and it seemed that there had never been a matter of asking for 30,000 taels of silver to make up for it, and the new staff team was even more around Lian Daning's staff to say good things, and the next time I saw it was at the boss's yamen.

Lian Daning is not difficult for Wei Gao, after all, he is Gao Gong's protégé, Gao Gong is a latent appearance, and the next session may be Lord Shoufu. The two still call each other brothers, calling each other by their names instead of their names to show respect. Maybe they will use each other at any time, contradictions are contradictions, and the protection of officials is their foundation.

As soon as the two of them left, Chen Musa got the news, and then told him that besides, he was free.

Besides, I couldn't suppress my excitement, and suddenly burst into tears, I was finally free, how precious freedom is! You can go out and play, and if you stay at home like this, you have to go crazy.

"What kind of heart are you, just stay at home for a few days, and a bunch of people accompany you every day, and you feel uncomfortable like this? How can this become a master of science? Pomegranate was sharply critical.

Besides, I don't understand, if there is no such thing, he will not feel depressed if he stays at home for a month, and he will not be willing to let him go out if he writes, paints, and reads books. When he was in Fengyang, he didn't go out for almost a whole month just to watch and copy Dongpo's "Former Chibi Fu", nothing happened, and he was very comfortable.

Besides, ignoring Pomegranate, knowing that she was looking for an opportunity to squeeze herself, after going out to meet the teacher, she flew out of the door like a bird out of the cage.

The streets are so wide, the sky is so blue, he really feels like he has stepped out of prison, he feels good about everything, this is the taste of freedom.

Walking around the streets, walking and stopping, the neighbors came up to say hello when they saw him approaching, and he stopped to chat with others about a few nonsense.

"Isn't this a young man, why haven't you seen it recently?"

"Gongzi, I heard that you are sick, and our neighbors want to go and see it, but unfortunately the soldiers in front of your house are too fierce to let us get close at all."

"Besides, young master, you look pretty good! Besides, when will the doctor come back, I'm still waiting for him to prescribe medicine for me. ”

Along the way, adults and children have come up to talk to him, which is also why his house is heavily guarded these days, and there are big sedan chairs from the government that come and go, and the pomp and circumstance are also big, so there are all kinds of speculations. Some people say that he has a big deal, hiding at home and not daring to show his face, some people say that he was targeted by assassins, so the house is guarded by guards all around, and there is a bizarre saying that the emperor wants to summon him to Beijing as an official, but he can't afford it, and those big sedan chairs that come and go are big people from Beijing, urging him to enter Beijing.

I don't know where these rumors came from, but some people really believe them. Chen Musa is Zhengjun, when he went to the capital, they all guessed that he must have become a big official, but he was recruited in white clothes and returned in white clothes.

"Could it be that both of these masters and apprentices want to be the king?" Someone finally put forward this hypothesis.

"What you said is not right, someone kidnapped Young Master Guo, and Young Master Guo broke free by himself and came back, so he hid at home for fear that the kidnappers would continue to kidnap him." A well-informed source announced that this seems to be the closest to the truth, but it is still just speculation.

"Well, this is true, didn't the whole city search a few days ago, that is, the people from the government are looking for the young master. Now that he's back, he has to protect him first. ”

This statement won the approval of most people, and at that time, there were not many people who knew the inside story after being kidnapped, and the people from the government and Zhongshan Wangfu were also secretly searching, and did not announce the matter, so not many people knew.

After walking a few streets, he found that there was a stripped puppy that had been following him, and he walked the dog, and he stopped the dog. When he walked over, the dog hurriedly retreated, and when he turned around, the dog barked twice and continued to follow him. And I thought, What if I run? When I think about it, it's boring, what's the fun of fighting a dog, maybe it's hungry.

Freedom is freedom, why do you always feel that someone is pointing at you behind it, why has it become the finger of a thousand people? Besides, I decided to go home first, and when I got back to the door, I suddenly felt a palpitation, as if I had been beaten on the head.

What's going on, this is an ominous omen, is something really going to happen? Moreover, standing outside the door, he hurriedly shouted, "Nier Nier, I'm back!" ”

No one promised him. The palace guards who were originally hidden at home were gone, and I felt a little lost in my heart. At this moment, the house is empty, and it is completely different from yesterday.
