This time the court asked to cut the official prostitutes, the most hurt is the Taichang Temple, and then bigger, that is, the Ministry of Rites, the officials of the Ministry of Rites and the Taichang Temple are very angry and uneasy about this, this official prostitute is the most oily department of the Ministry of Rites, a single official prostitute is implicated in the Manchu Dynasty civil and military, the relationship between this is really complicated, if this is to be cut off, who will be willing to do it.

It's good to die, this is the boss of Taichang Temple, and he is Han Yi's father-in-law, so the officials of Taichang Temple think that Xiao Rui is unreliable, so they ran to find Xu Jingzong, the secretary of the ministry, hoping that Xu Jingzong can stop this matter.

Xu Jingzong knew the reason, but he also had to come forward, he had to make the decision for his younger brother, otherwise, who would still recognize him as a big brother.

Taijoji Temple.

"Brother Xiao, you are really looking for a good son-in-law, and this fire is specially burned on your own family."

Xu Jingzong's eyes glanced slightly at Xiao Rui, who was sitting on the side, and said with a smile.

Xiao Rui was neither humble nor arrogant: "Xu Shizhong's words are serious, it is true that Han Yi is my son-in-law, but we are also court officials, and I can still distinguish between public and private." ”

Xu Jingzong said: "Brother Xiao is selfless, Xu admires, admires." ”

"Don't dare, don't dare."

Xiao Rui bowed slightly.

And the officials on the side looked at Xiao Rui with hostility.

Xiao Rui's life is indeed not good, his son-in-law has operated on himself, no matter what he thinks in his heart, the people below must have a lot of complaints against him. However, Xiao Rui is calm and magnanimous, he doesn't care about these things, so he won't do it if it's a big deal, isn't it Taichang Siqing, Han Yi is now a household secretary, and he doesn't need him to take care of it, and he is the richest businessman in the world, he has no worries about food and clothing, he has long had the intention of going home to live for the rest of his life.

At this moment, a small official walked in quickly, panting slightly: "Xu Shangshu, here, here." ”

When the officials heard this, they were shocked.

Xu Jingzong frowned and said, "What about Han Yilai?" ”

"Han Shangshu didn't come, but he sent a few people over."

"Who?"

"The villain doesn't know him, the person who came just said that he is Di Renjie, the nine-grade academician of the Sixth Academy of Sages, and he came here to perform official duties in the name of Han Shangshu."

"Di Renjie?"

Xu Jingzong said: "This name sounds quite familiar. ”

An official next to him reminded: "Xu Shangshu, this person is the second Jinshi in the imperial examination. ”

"Oh---! I remember. Xu Jingzong nodded.

Another official said: "Xu Shangshu, Han Yi interfered in the duties of our Taichang Temple, and that's it, but he actually sent the Jiupin Academician of the Sixth Academy of Sages, isn't this bullying, can any official office interfere in the official affairs of our Taichang Temple." ”

Xu Jingzong's brows sank when he heard this, "This kid is still as arrogant as ever. After that, he glanced at Xiao Rui.

Xiao Rui lowered his head and tasted the tea, as if he hadn't heard it.

Xu Jingzong retracted his gaze and said, "Let them in." ”

"Yes!"

After a while, I saw a few young men walking in with some officials.

"Xiaguan Di Renjie see Xu Shangshu, Taichang Siqing."

Di Renjie and his colleagues came to the hall and immediately saluted Xu Jingzong and others respectfully.

Xu Jingzong was speechless, he stayed in Taichang Temple for the past two days, just to wait for Han Yi, after all, this matter is not small, if it is not done well, it will be a big mess, he thinks that Han Yi will definitely come in person, but where do you know that Han Yi did not come out according to the routine, and actually sent a few stinky boys, which made Xu Jingzong feel that he was humiliated, he was a dignified and ceremonial secretary, and he actually sat here to negotiate with a few boys who did not flow in, what is the matter.

Xu Jingzong was in a bad mood at first, and frowned: "Di Renjie, this is not the place where you Jiupin Academicians should come, go back and tell Han Yi that he is not in accordance with the rules in doing so." ”

"Yes!"

Di Renjie listened, almost without any hesitation, and bowed, "The lower official retires." ”

Xu Jingzong was slightly stunned, he thought that Di Renjie would have to say at least two sentences, but he never thought that Di Renjie would be so obedient, and thought to himself, could it be that Han Yi had expected it and deliberately sent them to set a trap for the old man. Yes, it must be so, otherwise, why didn't he come in person and send Di Renjie, this kid is really insidious. Hurriedly "Wait! ”

He immediately called Di Renjie again.

Di Renjie turned around and arched his hand: "I don't know Xu Shangshu, what else do you command?" "I was shocked in my heart, the dean is really like a god!

Xu Jingzong said: "Why did Han Shangshu send you and others?" ”

Di Renjie said: "Back to Xu Shangshu's words, Han Shangshu just ordered me to come and count the number of official prostitutes. ”

"Is it just counting the number of people?"

"Yes."

Xu Jingzong nodded slightly, this count, of course Han Yi couldn't be there in person, and said, "How are you going to count it?" ”

Di Renjie said: "Han Shangshu ordered us to count according to the expenditure of the household department. ”

Xu Jingzong listened to a look of displeasure, this is the strength of the household, any official office is inseparable from the household, want to deceive in front of the household, this is very difficult, people will lie, this money will not speak, official prostitutes need to spend, this requires the household to allocate money, so about the number of courtesans, the situation, there are detailed records of the household, of course, this record is true or false, it is not easy to say, false accounts, that is a very common thing, like saying that the future generations, the Chinese invoice, is simply world-famous, but if you don't count, This is not such a simple matter as cutting official prostitutes, there are people who are corrupt.

"Are you Han Shangshu quite well prepared?" Xu Jingzong sneered.

Di Renjie bowed his head slightly, but did not make a sound.

Xu Jingzong coughed lightly and said to Xiao Rui on the side: "Brother Xiao, this is bothering you." He originally planned to let Xiao Rui stand aside, but now that Han Yi is playing this trick, he has to let Xiao Rui come forward, because there must be a fake in it, and if Xiao Rui is allowed to go, Han Yi will naturally not be killed.

Xiao Rui said: "Xu Shizhong's words are serious, this is a matter within the duties of the lower officials. ”

But I want to laugh in my heart.

Although Han Yi did not come forward, everything was in Han Yi's calculations, he just wanted to force Xu Jingzong to hand over this task to Xiao Rui, in this way, unnecessary friction would be avoided, and if other officials were to go, it would definitely make it difficult for Di Renjie and them, Han Yi didn't want to make any more extraneous branches, his plan was only for official prostitutes, as for falsely reporting a little false account, Han Yi really didn't plan to settle old accounts with them.

Xiao Rui led several officials and took Di Renjie out of Taichang Temple and went to the residence of a special official prostitute.

After they left, an official immediately said to Xu Jingzong: "Xu Shangshu, why don't we go over and have a look?" ”

Xu Jingzong snorted lightly, "With Xiao Rui here, what's the use of us going, the old man doesn't want to be so idle." "This son-in-law should be in harmony with the outside, and he doesn't have much to do.

This Xiao Rui naturally helped Han Yi, came to the residence of the official prostitute, and immediately ordered someone to call out all the official prostitutes. There are more than 2,000 people, but Han Yi also sent almost all the officials in the household department to help Di Renjie count it, but he still counted it for most of the day.

"Academician Di, there are still one hundred and thirty-eight people less."

Di Renjie nodded, came to Xiao Rui's side, and said with a respectful expression: "Xiao Shangqing, according to our statistics, this number is one hundred and thirty-eight fewer than the one on the roster. ”

Xiao Rui said: "They are still in some ministers' mansions, and I have asked people to summon them back the day before yesterday, but for some reason, they have not come back yet." ”

"I see." Di Renjie said again: "Xiao Shangqing, Han Shangshu has instructed us that if there are official prostitutes who have not returned, we must bring back their latest entry and exit records. ”

Xiao Rui nodded and ordered someone to hand over the record to Di Renjie.

Di Renjie took the record and went back to the household department.

Tobe!

"Qi Qi Han Shangshu, according to our inventory, among the 2,326 official prostitutes in Taichang Temple, one hundred and thirty-eight are still in the minister's mansion."

"That's it."

"Back to Shangshu, according to the secretary of Taichang Temple, more than 600 official prostitutes returned to Taichang Temple yesterday."

"That's the right number."

Han Yi smiled and thought, it seems that my official authority is okay! He said, "You can bring back their entry and exit records." ”

Di Renjie hurriedly took out a document from his sleeve and handed it over.

Han Yi took it, and then waved his hand and said, "You have worked hard, go down and rest first, I will look for you if there is something." ”

"The subordinate obeys!"

After Di Renjie and the others retreated, Han Yi took out the official information from the ministry again, compared the two documents, and hummed a little song in his mouth, after a while, he suddenly closed his mouth, revealing a treacherous smile: "Yuyang Hou Zhang Guishan, if you are unlucky, it will be you." ”

Liangyi Palace.

"Enlighten the saint, the head of the household is still asking to see."

After hearing this, Li Zhi put down his pen and said quite unhappily: "This kid has caused some trouble, and it is estimated that he has encountered difficulties and came to me for help." But after all, he still asked people to bring Han Yi in.

"Weichen Han Yi see Your Majesty."

"No courtesy."

Li Zhi said: "Haven't you been very busy lately, how can you have time to come here." ”

There was a hint of threat in his tone.

Han Yi understood in his heart that Li Zhi was hinting to him that he should do it himself, don't bother him, he has reservations about this restructuring. said: "Your Majesty, the minister came today to invite His Majesty to watch a play. ”

Li Zhi was stunned for a moment and said, "Watching a play? Now you still want to invite me to watch the play? ”

Han Yi said: "This drama has a lot to do with the reduction of official prostitutes. In fact, the minister knew in his heart that His Majesty thought that the minister's move was a bit of a fuss, compared to the affairs of the northwest, what is this reduction of official prostitutes, and if it is not done well, there will be chaos. ”

Li Zhi said lightly: "Since you can convince Sikong that they agree to support you, then naturally you have a reason." ”

"But Your Majesty, you still have reservations in your heart, don't you?" Han Yi said: "That's why Weichen invited His Majesty to watch this play, and after watching this play, His Majesty understood why the minister did this." ”

Li Zhi sighed and said curiously: "What play?" ”

"Your Majesty will know when he goes." Han Yi's words changed suddenly, "But Your Majesty has to disguise yourself before you go." As he spoke, he raised his right hand, and saw that his right hand was carrying a set of officials' uniforms.

Li Zhi's eyes widened and he looked at Han Yi in disbelief.

Han Yi just smiled.

Yuyang Hou Mansion.

Now it's only when the sun sets, Yuyang Houfu is already singing and dancing, four or five men have seven or eight young girls, sitting in the hall, drinking and having fun, reciting poems, and smelling the sound of the piano, it is really happy and boundless.

Suddenly, a man walked in, interrupting the harmonious and cheerful atmosphere.

"Master Qiyu, the head of the household is still asking to see." The servant reported to a fat man with a round figure in the middle.

This person is Yuyang Hou Zhang Guishan.

A man with a goatee next to him said: "Brother Xian, don't you have a holiday with that Han Yi, but I heard that Brother Zimo and they didn't take the reduction of official prostitutes to heart, why didn't Han Yi look for them, but found you." ”

The rest of the men burst out laughing.

Zhang Guishan's face sank when he heard this, and his anger jumped on the paper, and said: "Let him come in, I want to see what he can do to me with a farmer." ”

A courtesan beside him said, "Lord, the slaves and maids will retire first." ”

"I can't do it!" Zhang Guishan snorted.

The rest of the men all raised a weird smile, this is officialdom, they just want to arch others and reap the benefits of the fisherman.
