"Oh, thank you Master Li, you're busy, you're busy, don't worry about me." Wei Bao hurriedly said.

"Okay, okay." Li Limin was smiling, kept this appearance, and did not sit down.

This made Wei Bao a little embarrassed, hesitated for a moment, and still chose to withdraw from Li Limin's official hall.

Secretly you smile at someone like this? Wearing a mask-like smile all day long, aren't you tired?

After walking around outside, Wei Bao went over to gossip with a few fellow Jinshi.

Wu Kongjia has always been very silent, and the taste of being on top.

In fact, the few people who came to the Metropolitan Procuratorate this time, except for Wu Kongjia, who has obvious Wei colors, the colors of the other people are not distinct, and they are considered neutrals, and it is difficult to see whether they are more inclined to Donglin or more inclined to the eunuchs.

After a while, Old Man Sun happily came to find Wei Bao, "Master Wei, Master Li is back." ”

Wei Bao smiled slightly, secretly wondering, seeing how polite the old grandson was, and said with a kind smile: "Oh, thank you." ”

"Where, just went in." Old man Sun smiled at Wei Bao and snorted, and signaled the location of Master Li's errand room.

Wei Bao nodded again, signaling that he understood.

Several Jinshi looked slightly surprised, I don't know why Wei Bao is so good at interpersonal relationships?

Wei Bao understood the minds of a few people, and secretly thought that you are all nerds? I only know whether to look up or down, in fact, if you are a little better to the people below, they will be very good to you, what is there to understand?

Wei Bao generously invited others to go with Master Li, in fact, he knew, if he said it or not, everyone would go, so it was better to simply do personal favors.

But if it weren't for Wei Bao's good relationship with the porter of the yamen just now, I'm afraid that these people would have to spend the morning waiting here, and I'm afraid they would not be able to meet the person they were looking for until noon when all the officials of the yamen went out.

One of these people is counted as one, and none of them are as sophisticated as Wei Bao, and they are not as flexible as Wei Bao.

Li Hanchi is a slightly chubby middle-aged and elderly man, around 50 years old.

At this age, the experience of Zhengliupin, this position is not high.

However, Wei Bao knew that the experience of the Metropolitan Procuratorate seemed to be a real power faction, and if he went to the local level, he would at least be above the fourth grade.

He also has a lot of face in the capital, and he is much more powerful than other yamen Zhengwupin.

As soon as Li Hanchi saw Wei Bao, he immediately took the initiative to stand up and said with a smile: "This is Tanhualang, right?" You're all new scholars from the Hanlin Academy, right? ”

Everyone said yes, and everyone wondered, why did so many people, this experienced adult, speak to Wei Bao first?

Although Wei Bao is the highest ranking in the scientific examination among these people, there is no distinction between high and low positions.

Everyone wonders, does Wei Bao really have any tough backers? It seems that this kid has gained the fame of Tanhualang, and he didn't come across it casually, the water in officialdom is really deep enough!

Even Wu Kongjia thinks the same way.

In fact, Li Hanchi didn't have anything special about Wei Bao, a few people came in at once, he had already heard of Wei Bao's name, and knew that Wei Bao was only 15 years old, these people were all from thirty to fifty years old, and he could tell which one was Wei Bao at a glance.

Definitely talking to the person who was identified first.

It's these jinshi who have an idea in their hearts, so they think about it.

Then, Li Hanchi said to everyone: "You are all watching politics, you can usually look everywhere, the people who are on errand in the yamen of the Metropolitan Procuratorate are very busy, and it is not convenient for me to send everyone to whom, after a while, if you have a suitable speech official, a good speech official, just follow them to do things." ”

Wei Bao sweats, and there is such a distribution of work? A worthy speaker? A good speaker? How is this handled? If you don't help us assign it, we will stupidly follow behind the other people's officials and ask, can you deal with us?

Not suitable, right?

Wei Bao thought so, and the rest of the Jinshi also thought so, but no one raised any objections.

When you first arrive, you don't know the rules of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, who dares to say anything?

The consequence of talking too much is either to commit taboos or to make people unhappy.

See more, listen more, talk less, do less.

This is the eight-character scripture of officialdom, and everyone knows it.

Then everyone thanked each other and quit the errand room of the adults, not knowing what to do now.

Fortunately, with the experience of the previous month in the Hanlin Academy, everyone got used to mixing up the days, and after a while, they went to the pavilions and corridors in the yamen, and found a stone bench to sit and wait for the end of work.

Everyone is bitter in their hearts, except for Wei Bao, who came to this capital after working hard behind his back.

The rest of the people, including Wu Kongjia, were reluctant to come over, how comfortable is the Hanlin Academy?

The place is spacious, everyone has their own errand room, and it seems to be a matter of course not to do things, where is it like this Metropolitan Procuratorate, it seems that everyone is very busy, just a few of them are idle, and there is no place to rest, not so much to be an official, but to run to the Metropolitan Procuratorate as an idler, and even more idle than the Hanlin Academy.

After all, the Hanlin Academy is full of such people, and everyone has no psychological burden, and the people in the Metropolitan Procuratorate seem to have something to do, and I don't know if the people in the Metropolitan Procuratorate are all pretending, or what, anyway, it seems that everyone is very busy.

Wei Bao didn't rest, and for the rest of the morning, he walked around the various errand rooms in the Metropolitan Procuratorate.

He didn't go into every errand room, he would look at the clothes and clothes of officials, and he would only look at the errand room of officials of the same grade at the door, and if there was a errand room for officials above the seventh grade, he would pass by and never stay.

People here don't seem to like to socialize, or they don't like to socialize very much.

Wei Bao found that if he took the initiative to talk to others, they would politely greet him, and that's it.

And if he doesn't take the initiative to talk to someone, others won't take the initiative to talk to him.

Wei Bao was a little sullen and went back to his president's mansion.

"How about the first day of going to the Metropolitan Procuratorate?" Wu Xuexia asked cautiously, because she saw that Wei Bao's interest was not very high, and she didn't know if Wei Bao wanted to say it.

Wu Xuexia will definitely not be afraid of Wei Bao, but after being by Wei Bao's side for a long time, her eldest lady's temper has worn out a lot.

Although her temperament has long been stereotyped, Miss Wu still has a proud and cold personality in her bones, but she is much softer on the surface.

This is also related to Wei Bao's more easy-going personality, the more easy-going Wei Bao is, the more difficult it is for people to be cold in front of him.

What's more, Wu Xuexia is in Wei Bao's system.

The biggest charm of the system is here, no matter what kind of personality you are, once you integrate into the team, you will slowly be changed by the team.

What this unit is like, what your character will slowly become.

Even if it doesn't change completely, it will reduce a lot of the original personality traits.

"It's okay, I didn't get things to do, let's follow those officials first, see how they do things, but they didn't give us specific officials, and the officials don't seem to like to take care of people." Wei Bao sullenly explained the matter.

Wei Bao also seems to regret entering the officialdom a little now, and he has also found that the system is easy to change people.

didn't want to stay in the Hanlin Academy, but Wei Bao found that a large group of idlers in the Hanlin Academy didn't do anything all day long, and he was afraid that after a while, he would lose his fighting spirit and go like them.

But when I arrived at the Metropolitan Procuratorate, the people in the Metropolitan Procuratorate were busy, but the personalities of these people were really weird, and they were all nervous and mysterious, and they didn't know what the hell they were doing.

Wu Xuexia sighed, she could understand Wei Bao's situation, but even if she was as smart as Wu Xuexia in her heart, she couldn't think of anything for a while.

"There's always a time for them to be free, right? Childe waited patiently for a few more days, and tried to find a few more officials to chat with when they were free, to see which one had a better temperament, and to play with that person more, it should be able to improve slowly, right? Wang Qiuya is usually silent and doesn't make ideas for Wei Bao, but when she saw that Wu Xuexia didn't say anything this time, she couldn't help but pout.

Wei Bao smiled and shook his head, "I'm afraid it's difficult, they really seem to be very busy, and they don't know what to be busy with." The most important thing is that I found that each speaker rarely talked to each other! Not to mention the new ones with us. The people of the Hanlin Academy talk too much, gossiping all day and night, and these officials of the Metropolitan Procuratorate say that they are talking officials, but there are too few words, and they all seem to be dumb. ”

Wang Qiuya sighed, "I just said it casually, don't care what I say." ”

"It's okay, in your own house, you can say whatever you want, there are not so many rules." Wei Bao laughed.

Princess Zhenming, who spoke less than Wang Qiuya, said: "There are also institutions similar to the Metropolitan Procuratorate in North Korea, but we call them Yushi. ”

"We are also called Yushi, your official positions are all learned from the Ming Dynasty, there will not be too many differences, your Cao is our six." Wei Bao laughed.

Princess Zhenming nodded and hummed, "As far as I know, the officials are all doing monitoring and reporting these things, so they usually pay attention to their words and deeds. Be cautious in doing things. It's really hard to fit in with these people. Unless you have acquaintances, otherwise, there are too many factions in the officialdom, and others can't figure out your faction, and you won't be able to figure out other people's factions for a while, and people won't dare to talk to you more. ”

Hearing Princess Zhenming say this, Wei Bao suddenly opened up a little, "Yes, what you said is right, this should be the key, I heard that the Metropolitan Procuratorate is the most powerful place in the Ming Dynasty's officialdom!" The more silence there is, the more it shows that there is an undercurrent surging underneath! ”

"Childe doesn't have to be anxious, they don't like to talk, they are guarded, you can wait for them to take the initiative to help when they are in trouble. It's a means of making friends. In addition, maybe it's because Childe is a newcomer, so he's not very famous, right? Whether Childe is revealed to be from Donglin or Father-in-law Wei, there should be someone who will come over and take the initiative to make friends with Childe. Princess Zhenming said.

"But I'm a centrist, I don't rely on any side, so I don't have no one to pay attention to me, right? There should also be centrist officials, right? But I can't stick a centrist on my head and go around telling people that I'm a centrist, right? Daming doesn't have such a faction as a centrist. Wei Bao smiled helplessly.

"It's useless to say it, I just said that Gongzi's reputation is not big enough, that's it, if Gongzi wants people to know that he is a centrist, he has to prove through one thing that he is neither inclined to Gonggong Wei nor Donglin, so it can be. The rest of the centrist speakers will believe that Childe is a centrist person, and they will take the initiative to make friends with Childe. Princess Zhenming analyzed.

When Wei Bao heard this, the problem in his heart was solved, he nodded approvingly, and said to Princess Zhenming with a smile: "That's right, talk more in the future, say what you want to say, let's be here, aren't you familiar with it?" ”

Princess Zhenming's face flushed and hummed softly.

Princess Zhenming is actually not short to Wei Bao's side.

But her identity is a little embarrassing, she feels that she is unclear and unclear here in Wei Bao, and she has a nominal husband after all.

Also, she is a Korean princess, Wei Bao is a Han Chinese, although Wei Bao has the name of a Korean Taifu, he is still just a Han person.

Moreover, Wei Bao's position in the officialdom of the Han people is still very low, just a small official of the seventh grade, and he still has nothing to do.

Princess Zhenming didn't know what it meant to be by Wei Bao's side.

If Wei Bao is a first- or second-class member of the Ming Dynasty, or the kind related to Korean affairs, then it is still in the past.

Not only did she feel that it was unjustifiable for her to follow Wei Bao, but Princess Zhenming even felt more and more that Wei Bao was going to conquer North Korea with a disciple of the superintendent, which was also very unjustifiable.

Wei Bao saw that Princess Zhenming was still estranged from herself, and there was still a estrangement from heaven and earth, but there was nothing she could do.

During these days, Wei Bao has always been very polite to Princess Zhenming and respects each other like a guest.

didn't treat Princess Zhenming to others because she was by her side, and he didn't use words or behaviors to provoke Princess Zhenming.

Although Princess Zhenming is now nominally Wei Bao's secretary and Wei Bao's female official, in fact, Princess Zhenming has nothing specific to do.

It's not that Wu Xuexia and Wang Qiuya are guarding against Princess Zhenming, they have also sent things to Princess Zhenming, but seeing that Princess Zhenming doesn't seem to be very enthusiastic, although she is careful enough to do things, serious enough, it is obvious that Princess Zhenming does not want to do specific things, not because she is afraid of being tired, but because she resists.

Over time, Wu Xuexia and Wang Qiuya did not arrange for Princess Zhenming to do anything related to the affairs of the Heaven and Earth Society.

Wei Bao is an idler in the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and Princess Zhenming is an idler next to Wei Bao.

In the afternoon, Wei Bao went to the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and the situation was still similar to that in the morning.

For several days, the situation was never reversed.

In the past few days, Wei Bao has been thinking about what to do? How do I integrate into the Metropolitan Procuratorate?

It is impossible for him to get too close to the Donglin Party or the eunuch party, and he can only get close to the neutral party officials.

But he has to show that he's also a neutral, and he has to be believed.

Otherwise, if the neutrals do not come to him on their own initiative, he will never be able to integrate into the Metropolitan Procuratorate.

Although the matter is not complicated, President Wei will really not find a good opportunity for a while.

If you don't have the opportunity to get along with people, who can figure out which one is the Donglin system? Which is the eunuch? Which one is the neutral?

Even if Wei Bao has the Heaven and Earth Society Statistics Office in his hands, after a period of time, the political color of these officials in the Metropolitan Procuratorate can be clarified.

But even if he finds out, he still has to interact with the neutral faction, and the people from the Heaven and Earth Society Statistics Bureau can only spy on intelligence, and there is no way to help him go to work, and there is no way to help others with interpersonal interactions.

There is nothing to do to watch the government, and the yamen of this era is not as strict as the attendance system in later generations, and you have to punch in or something.

Therefore, after a while, Wei Bao's enthusiasm for work went down a lot, and he went to the Metropolitan Procuratorate every morning to report and go home, sometimes he didn't even bother to report.

Because Wei Bao found that no one cared about whether they went to the Metropolitan Procuratorate or not.

Without specific things, without specific competent officials, what are they going to do?

I don't care much about the affairs of the Heaven and Earth Society, Wei Bao is really just to know about major events, and the specific decisions are discussed by Wu Xuexia and Wang Qiuya.

In fact, there are not many things that need to be decided by the President's Secretariat, and the President's Secretariat only needs to agree or disagree.

Weijiazhuang and Liaonan, as well as the administrative power of Korean affairs, are actually in the hands of the General Administration under the command of Fan Xiaolin.

Fan Xiaolin will come up with various specific affairs handling methods and management methods, and then report to the president's secretariat to let President Wei know.

If President Wei disagrees, the President's Secretariat will come up with the reasons for disagreeing with the woman and the direction of revision, and then reject it.

The whole process is similar to the operation between the cabinet, the celebrant and the emperor of the Ming Dynasty.

Wei Bao is the emperor in his own system.

Many times, Wei Bao doesn't think there is anything wrong with the Ming bureaucracy, and even always thinks that the Ming bureaucracy is the most advanced! It already has the obvious characteristics of a modern judicial system under capitalism.

A lot of places are very scientific.

The supreme power of the political system of the Ming Dynasty was in the emperor, and later Zhu Yuanzhang abolished Zhongshu Province, and the six ministries were directly responsible to the emperor, and later set up the cabinet, the role of the cabinet was only an advisor, and the power of the six ministries was relatively weak.

However, this was only the original intention of Ming Taizu to create this system, and it was only implemented in the Hongwu and Yongle dynasties.

The political system of the Ming Dynasty as a whole, including the later Manchu Qing Dynasty, was very close to this system.

After the reign of Renxuan, because the idea of civil government in the Ming Dynasty began to gradually become stronger, the specific administrative power was transferred to the cabinet and the six ministries. At the same time, there are also monitoring bodies and secret services to strengthen the surveillance of subjects throughout the country. Three divisions have been set up at the local level to strengthen local management.

Before the Ming Dynasty, the dynasties generally followed the political institutional framework of the prime minister and auxiliary government under the monarch founded by Qin Shi Huang, but the form of the prime minister and the size of the power were slightly different.

In the early years of the Ming Dynasty, it also basically followed the old system of the Han and Tang dynasties, directly inherited the old system of the Yuan Dynasty, and set up three major governments in the center: Zhongshu Province, six departments under the system, and was in charge of administrative affairs; the Metropolitan Governor's Office, which is in charge of the military; Yu Shitai, in charge of supervising affairs.

The local government has set up a province in the book, and has set up a flat chapter to manage local affairs.
