Chapter 57: I'm here to find fault
Bao'er listened to Qian Jin's words, and still had a skeptical expression on her face.
Originally, she was reluctant to hear that her brother had a silkworm girl, and she heard the people in the yard say a lot of good things about the silkworm girl before she changed her mind slightly, but she didn't expect a Yun Sanniang to pop up again, and she felt powerless. My brother is so distracted.
What Boa is worried about now is how to explain it to Emily when the time comes. Emily's family were all Puritans, and they didn't have three wives and four concubines, as Jenny and Sward could see. This is the difference between Chen Guoren and Yiren in their view of marriage between men and women.
Qian Jin saw that Bao'er's eyebrows were tightly locked, and he knew what she was thinking, but he had his own opinions about emotional matters, even if he was his own sister, he couldn't control it. However, after listening to Bao'er's analysis today, he really felt that his sister had grown up, and he also had his own unique views on things. He couldn't help but be curious about how his sister planned for the future, so he asked, "Bao'er, what are your plans for the future?" ”
"What else can I plan, husband and child......" Bao'er was still angry, and the smell of fire and medicine was very strong in her words.
Qian Jin touched his nose and said embarrassedly: "When you talk to you about business, you say that these are boundless, forget it, you better go and rest early." ”
Boa still sat still, as if recalling something, and after a long time said, "Actually, I discussed with Emily when I was a child, that when the time comes, we will travel all over the world, haunt all kinds of balls, and make those dignitaries crazy for us. ”
"As a child? It's like how old you are. Qian Jin said a little speechlessly. It seems that Boa has lived with Emily for a few years, not only learned the language of the alien, but also accepted the foreign culture, which is very suitable for being a diplomat.
It's just that Chen Guo is now known as the dynasty of all directions, and he doesn't bother to communicate with foreign countries at all, and Bao'er has a talent for language but is useless. However, Bao'er was only a little over fourteen years old, and he didn't want to assign her many things for the time being. After all, most girls are still dreaming when they are fourteen.
"Chongyang is coming, and I'll take you and your father and mother to the street when the time comes." After saying that, Qian Jin didn't care whether Bao'er was willing or not, and directly issued an eviction order.
…………
After retiring from the court the next day, Qian Jin did not return to the courtyard.
It was noon at the moment, and he was a little hungry in his stomach, so he randomly found a restaurant and went in, ordered two dishes and a pot of wine to sacrifice to the Five Organs Temple. After eating and drinking, he re-entered the Daming Gate and came to the gate of the official department.
Since His Majesty the Emperor ordered him to be the champion, he delayed going to the Ministry of Officials to ask for the official register because of business matters. A few days ago, Wang Shangshu consulted his own book in the court again, and he didn't want to go to the door of the Ministry of Officials. As soon as he thought of Wang Shangshu's big head, he couldn't help but feel a little big.
Later, I thought about it, if he, the servant of the Son of Heaven, did not have an official register, he would always be a little unjustifiable. There is nothing to do today, and I just happened to do this.
It's still the cold street, and there are two stout guards, but this time Qian Jin has an extra green official robe.
Qian Jin didn't bother to take care of the two guards, so Shi Shiran stepped through the gate of the officials. Although the two guards felt a little familiar, the other party was an official of the seventh grade, and it was no longer his turn to stop them.
After entering the office of the Ministry of Officials, he went directly to the corner door of the main hall, and after passing through several corridors, he came to the outside of the duty room of the director of Wenxuan Silin, and the road was unimpeded. The last time Jin Taiming was an official, it was this Lin who humiliated him.
The door was hidden, and inside there was a man talking. Qian Jin pricked up his ears and listened, it should be that Director Lin had reached something with the person who came, and he was at a critical moment to ask for benefits. He laughed a little, didn't knock on the door, and pushed the door straight into the house.
"Who are you, and what kind of recklessness you become." When Director Lin saw the green official robe on Qian Jin's body, he thought that the newcomer from the Ministry of Officials had gone to the wrong door.
"Meet Director Lin, the next official is Qian Jin, the new champion, and this time I came to ask for the official register." Qian Jin said straight to the point.
At this moment, there was an old man and a young man sitting opposite Director Lin. The old man wore a green silk gown embroidered with many large copper coins; The few look like a pig's head, and they are already fat, but they still learn to read and wear long shirts and pretend to be Sven. Looking at this posture, it is most likely that this old man came to ask for an official for his son, and a red lacquered wooden box next to the old man's feet confirmed Qian Jin's conjecture.
Director Na Lin knew Qian Jin's name, and he also knew that Qian Jin had a holiday with his boss Wang Shangshu. However, the situation is a bit awkward at the moment, as if a man and a woman who were about to do something wrong were bumped into on the spot.
Master Lin settled down and glanced at the old man. The latter understood, and prepared to take his son and the red lacquered wooden box with him to get up and say goodbye.
Where will the money be so cheap for them, they pressed the old man's shoulder on the spot, and said with a smile: "This old man, this official is the champion appointed by His Majesty, the official worships the Son of Heaven and speaks, the Hanlin Academy edits, and the thousands of households in the sea guard." Since you have come to Lin on business here, this official will naturally not delay your business, so you can sit down for a while. ”
As soon as the old man heard that Qian had entered so many official ranks, he thought that he was a big official, so he had to obey his orders. At this time, he was sandwiched between Qian Jin and Chief Lin, the pressure was like a mountain, and after a while, he wiped the cold sweat on his forehead from time to time.
Director Lin was helpless, so he had to get up and take out a blank official book from the cabinet behind him, picked up a thin wolf pen on the table, and asked lukewarmly: "Name, hometown." ”
"Guanhai City, money in."
Director Lin filled in Qian Jin's name, place of origin and official position on the official book, and then stamped the seal of the Wenxuan Division, and a freshly baked official book was completed. When he was done, he threw the brush on the table and said coldly, "Take it." ”
"There is labor." Qian Jin picked up the official book from the table like a treasure, and carefully dried the ink on it before taking it into his arms.
Several people in the house thought that Qian Jin was leaving, but they saw him take it out of his arms for a while, and finally took out a money bag and threw it on Director Lin's table: "There are twenty yuan in it, which the official specially saved for Director Lin to buy wine and drink." ”
Director Lin's old face suddenly turned the color of pig liver. Not to mention that his price is far more than 20 yuan, there is still an old man and a young man present at the moment, and Qian Jin openly bribed him to cheat him. Just as he was about to throw the money bag back, Qian Jin had already turned around and walked out of the door, but when he raised his foot, he deliberately tripped over the red lacquered wooden box next to the old man's feet, and suddenly scattered the gold ingots all over the ground.
"You ......" Director Lin saw that the deeds were exposed, and his face was quite ugly.
"Oh, Director Lin, you're asking for a bribe." Qian Jin looked like a nobody, holding a finger and counting the ingots on the ground carefully: "One...... Two...... Twenty, Master Lin, these stolen silver are enough to cut off your dog's head. ”
"Which eye do you have to see this official taking bribes?" Director Lin took the case and pointed at Qian Jin and scolded.
"Everyone has stolen goods, and Master Lin has to quibble." Qian Jin came here today with the intention of humiliating Director Lin with twenty yuan, but God gave him such a good opportunity, if he didn't beat the water dog, he would have lived two lives in vain.
Hearing Qian Jin's accusation, Director Lin suddenly calmed down, and his eyes turned slightly, as if he was thinking hard about countermeasures. At present, this situation is indeed not good for him, no matter whether he collects the benefits of others, the stolen money and the bribe-giver are still in his house, and he can't tell if he has a mouth.
Taking advantage of this moment, Qian Jin walked behind the old man and stood for a while, then moved a few steps behind the fat man, patted the fat man's face gently, and then pressed his head to the side, and the latter lay on his back and fell to the ground. Qian Jin sat down on the chair vacated by the fat man, and said lightly: "I don't have any eyesight, and I still came out to be an official." ”
Director Lin was familiar with this, and after a while, he finally remembered that a few months ago, a person from Guangdong came to him to ask for an official, but the official did not arrive, and he used this sentence to humiliate him when he left. At that time, Qian Jin didn't say much, so he didn't think about this cause and effect for a while.
I don't know what the guards at the gate are eating, so I just let an outsider in. He has been an official for decades, and he doesn't know how much benefit he has received in this room, but he is actually arrested today.
However, when the official is in his share, the money has been earned, and where there is a feud, it will be resolved. So he got up and said with a smile: "Qian Shi said, this is a complete misunderstanding. Is there a good place for that friend of yours? I'll give him the best position at once. ”
"Yo ho, I finally remember", Qian Jin pointed to the money bag on the table and said, "You just need to swallow the twenty yuan, and we will write off the previous past." ”
"You...... This is deliberately fault-finding. Director Lin said with a blushing face.
"Oops, you're finally looking. That's right, I'm here to find fault today. After that, Qian Jin jumped directly from the table, grabbed Director Lin's head with one hand, and poured out the copper plate in the money bag with the other hand: "Eat or not, do you have to feed you?" ”
Na Lin, a fifty-year-old man, was Qian Jin's opponent, and he was pressed down on the table at this time and couldn't move. Qian Jin slapped him from time to time, and after a while, blood was oozing from the corners of his mouth, and his forehead was red and swollen. The old man and the young man next to him were already frightened, and they couldn't go, and they didn't go.
Outside the door, many officials heard the movement and came to investigate, and a few people who were bold enough to step forward to stop were frightened by Qian Jin's broken drink: "Jinyiwei is handling the case, and the idle people are waiting to retreat quickly." "Let's not talk about whether Hongmenda is reliable to help him ask for a thousand households, let's use this identity to scare people first. Although Jinyiwei's status is not as good as that of Dongchang, no one dares to provoke it easily in the capital. Sure enough, the officials at the door showed a look of jealousy.
Qian Jin's hand slashed Director Lin's neck, and the latter fell to the ground softly. Then, he found a blank piece of paper on the table and wrote a confession about Director Lin's bribery, and forced the old man and the young man to sign and draw a pledge on the table, and then pressed Director Lin's hand to draw a pledge on it.
"It seems that I have some potential to be a cool official." Qian Jin blew the ink on the paper and laughed at himself.
