Before dawn, the stars were shining, and Shen Chongming and the others, who had always been used to sleeping lazily, got up without waiting for the rooster to crow in the morning.

Put on the official uniform, picked up a lantern and hurriedly got into the carriage and hurried to the yamen of the official department. There's no way, now it's an errand, and I have to answer every day, but it's not as lazy as before, and the wide advertisement of living is not close to Yamen Street, although there is a carriage to pick it up, but if you don't pay attention to it, you will be late for the first day of work.

After the order, Shen Chongming sat on the chair where Zhang Langzhong personally arranged the office for himself, and immediately felt sleepy, and then he understood why he was still sleepy when he saw Zhang Langzhong yesterday.

The leader moves his mouth, and the soldier breaks his leg, which is extremely suitable for any dynasty and generation. The current Shen Chongming is also like this, no one has come to disturb him until the end of the night.

Stretching, Shen Chongming got up and tidied up his somewhat crumpled official robe and walked out.

"Morning, sir." Several subordinates who were chatting in the sun outside the room immediately got up to salute when they saw the new walking adult walk out. I admired it in my heart, and sure enough, it was the old man, and at this time, Lord Lang Zhong, Lord Wailang, and Lord Principal hadn't woken up yet.

Shen Chongming didn't know about this, and when he heard everyone say to him that it was early, he couldn't help blushing, and it was still early to sleep after three rods of sleep.

"Hehe, everyone, everyone continue, this official will sit for a while." Shen Chongming said with a smile, looking like a gregarious Shangguan.

Everyone was not polite, first called the handyman to serve Master Shen a cup of tea, and then sat down and muttered quietly.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this spring festival has just ended, I heard that the Metropolitan Procuratorate has entered a lot of imperial history, these young newborn calves don't understand the rules, I'm afraid that the yamen will have a hard time these days." An official shook his head and sighed.

This is true, just now with some power in hand, everyone will be in a hurry to use it to see how the function is, especially the yamen of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, which specializes in finding faults, and the candidates who have just entered it must have a good time.

"What are you afraid of, I don't believe that they dare to find fault with our officials, let's look at the excitement with peace of mind." The other said with a nonchalant expression.

This is also the truth, looking at the various yamen of the Ming Dynasty, except for the cabinet on duty in the imperial city, if the rest of the yamen are ranked, the officials are well-deserved bosses, who makes the promotion of officials all have to be taught by the officials, the power of life and death is in the hands, and no one dares to come out to blow up the thorns!

"Ahem." Talking about Zhenghuan here, he didn't notice that Zhang Langzhong went out, and he didn't find out until Zhang Langzhong coughed a few times, and hurriedly got up to salute.

"How many times has this official said, we are all on errands for the emperor, how can you talk nonsense here, why don't you go on an errand quickly." Zhang Langzhong glared and said, these ignorant stupid pigs, this Shen Chongming is a student of Lord Gao, if he accidentally mentions this matter with Lord Gao, Lord Gao will definitely have an opinion on the person who is taking the public examination for the Qing Division, and in a few days, he will be appointed as a member of the cabinet, then he will suffer.

"The lower officials know their mistakes, thank you for your teachings." Everyone responded in unison, but there was no expression of remorse on their faces, they were all from a yamen, and no one knew who.

Watching everyone walk in, Zhang Langzhong smiled at Shen Chongming and said, "Lord Shen, don't listen to these people's nonsense. ”

"Hehe, Xia Guan understands. However, my lord, the lower officials feel that what your colleagues say is reasonable, and our company, under the leadership of your lordship, does not need to be afraid of the imperial historians of the Metropolitan Procuratorate at all. Shen Chongming presented a high hat.

"Hehe, Lord Shen is overrated." This sycophant was so comfortable that Zhang Langzhong couldn't help but show a hint of pride.

"By the way, Lord Shen, this morning the official saw that you were sleepy, did you get up too early?" Zhang Langzhong cares about his subordinates very much, and he can be regarded as a good boss.

As soon as he said this, Shen Chongming felt pain, not to mention that it was early, it was almost earlier than a chicken. "My lord clearly sees that the lower officials did get up a little early, but there was no way, and the place where he lived was too far away from the yamen."

"Hehe, Lord Shen is confused, why don't you rent a small courtyard near the yamen, then you don't have to get up early." Zhang Langzhong said with a smile.

Shen Chongming immediately paused, then patted his forehead and said with gratitude on his face: "Thank you for mentioning it, otherwise I don't know how much suffering I will have to endure in Xiaguan." ”

"Hehe, we talked a lot, I miss you haven't eaten, I don't have any errands today, let's go back first, I have to rent a small courtyard nearby." Zhang Langzhong commanded with a smile.

How could Shen Chongming refuse such a good thing, he didn't even wait for humility, and directly thanked him: "Lord Xie takes care of it, then the lower official will go back first." ”

Leaving the yamen, Shen Chongming was not in a hurry to go back, and walked directly onto the street wearing an official robe, and the officials in the capital were everywhere, but no one cast too many eyes on him.

After a visit, I was lucky, and I happened to come across a small house for sale less than three miles away from Yamen Street, with three main houses and two partial rooms, and the clean and neat courtyard was spacious enough.

Although the price is expensive and costs two hundred taels of silver, it is not a problem for a man like Shen Chongming, and he directly asked for a silver ticket to pay and got the deed.

Such a cheerful person and the homeowner still saw it once, and the other new officials who came to buy the house a few days ago were all dime, and the deal was almost yellow.

"My lord, I see that you are a cheerful person, and I will give you a word of advice below. Several big mansions in this vicinity are all important ministers, one of them is the mansion of the old man Xu Ge, if you are lucky enough to be appreciated by his old man, it will definitely soar. The owner said mysteriously.

"Oh, Xu Ge Lao lives here, hehe, this official doesn't know, thank you." Shen Chongming smiled politely, what about the enemy, it is really a narrow road.

"Hey, you're welcome. However, Xu Ge is old and powerful, and it is not easy to make friends, but this lord, there are many people living in the yamen in other mansions, and I don't know each other, so you can observe it slowly in the future. The owner said another word to say goodbye, this mansion no longer belongs to him.

"Let me ask you again, has this house been ready to be sold?" Shen Chongming got up to send him off, and couldn't help but ask.

Look at this small courtyard seems to have just been decorated, I don't want to be the kind of owner who has difficulties and needs to take action urgently.

"Hehe, to tell you the truth, every three years, I will buy a few small mansions in this place and wait for nobles like you to come. Needless to say, there is still a set not far away that has not been sold. The owner took his leave, humming a little tune and walking away.

Shen Chongming sighed for a while, his grandmother's is really a tenant everywhere.

There is nothing in this house, Shen Chongming took the deed door and rushed to the public without locking it, these chores told Xiao Sanzi to do it, change his clothes and go to the Four Seas Martial Arts Hall to see, he said that he hadn't seen the little junior sister for a long time, and this little girl didn't say that he came to find himself.

"Little third son, this is twenty taels of silver, you take your buddy to buy some furniture and bedding, and I will move with me when I come back later." Back to Guangyunzhi, as soon as he heard that the little third son had gone to the next door to be a chef again, Shen Chongming came over without saying a word, and before he could eat, this kid must have eaten for himself. Poor shopkeeper Ge accepted such a gluttonous disciple.

"Ah, Brother Shen, are you going to move?" Xiao Pengcheng, who was squatting in front of the stove to add fire, suddenly stood up and said in surprise.

I didn't expect him to be here, if he hadn't spoken, that face full of black and gray would really not have come out. Looking at this scene, Shen Chongming couldn't help but shake his head, how can he say that he is also a widely advertised president, how can he run to a good time and become a buddy again?

"Yes, it's too far away from the Yamen, brother, I bought a small courtyard near the Yamen, and I'll move there today, so you don't have to get up every day to see us off." Shen Chongming said as he grabbed a piece of sauced beef from the plate next to him and stuffed it into his mouth.

"Oh, it's okay, the little brother will also move over, and our brothers will not be separated if they are killed." Xiao Pengcheng said as he spoke, and touched his face with his hand unconsciously, and he couldn't go like this, and his face completely turned into a big cat.

Too lazy to take care of this weird guy, Shen Chongming said yes and returned to advertise it.

"Ha, roar, roar!" The Four Seas Martial Arts Hall was very lively, and Shen Chongming stood at the gate and looked, okay, there are more disciples.

"Tanhualang is here!" As soon as he saw Shen Chongming appear, Xiong Dabiao immediately gathered his momentum and greeted him, the junior sister really had a vision, and she actually fell in love with a Tanhualang.

"Hehe, senior brother, don't make jokes about your younger brother." Shen Chongming said very enthusiastically, he has an ambiguous relationship with his little junior sister, and he can't be big or small in front of Xiong Dabiao in the future, after all, he can be regarded as a big brother.

"Hehe, come in, my sister has been talking about you these days." Xiong Dabiao smiled, this kid is thick-skinned enough, so he will call himself senior brother at this time.

Shen Chongming laughed dryly, raised his feet and walked towards the backyard.
