Chapter 178: The scorching sun is cloudy in the sky

The next time, Li You continued to lead a few servants to squat in front of his pawnshop, enjoying the bad taste of pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger and beating up a scoundrel in the market.

Of course, he didn't really ignore anything, and the news from the government reached his ears like that. For example, the prefect of Wang went to meet with Shi Shenzheng yesterday and asked him to stop building the city, and the two sides held heated talks, but nothing came of it. This morning, the prefect of the Wang Mansion went to see Shi Shenzheng again, but the result is not yet known.

Seeing that Lie was in the air, it was gradually getting hot, and it was noon, so Li Tuiguan took the job and invited guests to dinner. After a few bites, he saw his servants come to him with the retinue of the prefect's palace.

"Master Li, go and persuade my master!" The attendant shouted.

Persuade what? Li You asked, "How do you say this?" ”

"My lord is now guarding the door of the Provincial Affairs Department, and we are helpless, Mr. Yang said that only you came forward."

It turned out that the prefect of the Wang Mansion returned yesterday without success, and went again today, but was rejected by Shi Shenzheng, and from the morning to this time, he was still guarding the Daoist Office and refused to leave. That Shi Dashen was also ruthless, but he didn't see the prefect's mansion.

When Li You rushed to the archway outside the sub-guarding department, he saw that the crown of the black gauze brocade dress of the prefect Wang's mansion was neatly tied, with his head held high and his chest facing the gate of the sub-guarding department, and the back under the fiery red robe was extremely tall, and the spine was extraordinarily straight... Li You also had to praise in his heart, the advantage of this old man lies in perseverance. Replaced by him, there is absolutely no surname Nai wearing a full set of official uniforms, and it is already afternoon from the morning to the present under the lie.

I can't help but think of the past when Wang Zhifu was still Wang Tongzhi last year, he was forced by Mao Zhifu to go to Xujiang to ask for money, and the dignified five-grade civil officials deigned to go to the Jiupin inspection house to talk and laugh in the past.

Closer to it, I could see it more clearly, and the sixty-year-old prefect's back was already soaked with sweat.

Li You stood on the side and saluted: "Why is the Mansion so bothered. ”

Wang Zhifu did not squint, looked into the distance with his hands, and said lightly: "You are finally here..."

"Xiaguan is deeply impressed by the perseverance of the government."

"Don't dare to be... Fuck it! Wang Zhifu suddenly scolded, and the voice was only heard by two people, but he still maintained a posture of holding his head high.

Li You pretended to be deaf and didn't hear it last night, it seems that Old Man Wang is still not calm in his heart.

Governor Wang's face did not change, but he sighed in his mouth and said: "It's difficult to ride a tiger, this person who participates in politics is worthy of the surname Stone, he doesn't eat oil and salt, and he doesn't eat this official set." ”

Li You was shocked and couldn't help asking, "What does the Mansion Zun mean..."

Governor Wang smiled bitterly, "The official wants to bluff him, but Shi Shenzheng is soft and hard, so he can't do anything about it." ”

Li You almost jumped up, daring to love the prefect Wang's previous fanfare and wanton actions were all for show! Just to create a bargaining chip to force Shi to participate in politics and retreat, it is not necessarily a sincere desire to overhaul water conservancy.

I even deceived myself! Li You remembered again that Wang Tongzhi not only dared to lose face to the point of condescending to visit Jiupin for inspection, but also was able to hide it so deeply that he could deceive everyone in the mansion!

But listening to Old Man Wang's tone, this desperate fight seems to have kicked the iron plate... Li You couldn't help but ask, "What did Shi Shenzheng say?" ”

"He actually said that the capital water division of the Ministry of Beijing is his protΓ©gΓ©, and he can go to a letter to call the official fart water conservancy can not be repaired, and he must build a new city first! It's really a trick. ”

The Ministry of Industry and Water Division, in charge of the world's river water conservancy, he may not have the ability to help you repair water conservancy, but he must have the ability to prohibit you from repairing water conservancy... This is one force to ten meetings, and Li You also has a headache for this. The current momentum has been created, and Old Man Wang is playing a big game! It can be described as shooting yourself in the foot, a dilemma.

I only heard the prefect of the king's mansion say quietly: "What is the plan now?" ”

The angry Li You almost scolded, you didn't ask a few days ago, but now you know that you can ask others! Where did Lao Tzu go to find an idea for a while. But now that we are on the same ship, we really can't ignore it.

Accompanying his boss, Li You also stood for a moment under the fierce words, and suddenly pointed to the closed door of the branch office and said, "Do you dare to kneel down and ask to see you!" ”

Arrogantly, it was like a stone carving, and the prefect Wang, who was not losing power, finally turned his head and glanced at Li Tuiguan in surprise.

Li You asked again: "Do you dare?" ”

The prefect of Wang puffed, and knelt down happily and neatly at the gate of the Provincial Bureau. His staff entourage was shocked not far away, and asked Li Tuiguan to persuade people to come, how did he persuade him to do this?

How dare you do... It is worthy of the stoic little strong king who dares to give up his face at a critical moment.

Immediately frightened, the guards of the Provincial Department of Justice, who dared to be born by their parents. Someone rushed towards the office quickly, apparently to tell the prefect of the king to kneel down.

After another while, Li You said in a low voice: "Faint, the people inside should come out." ”

The prefect of the king tilted his head to obey the plan, Li You stretched out his hand to support it, and shouted: "Someone!" The lord of the mansion fainted! ”

The entourage and sedan chair members of the prefect's palace were in a hurry and carried the prefect's mansion to the sedan chair. Li You ordered: "Return to the government quickly!" Tell the people to call for a healer! ”

Later, Li You also violated the etiquette and entered the sedan chair to conspire with the prefect Wang. Anyway, the sedan chair is large, and it is not a problem to sit two people.

"Fuzun doesn't have to sit up, just open his mouth to speak." Inside, Li You helped the prefect of Wang to be understanding, but the prefect of Wang closed his eyes and did not react, obviously afraid that the gap in the sedan chair would be large and what people outside would see.

Pretending to be like... Li You, who is also an acting school, was very stressed, and pushed Fuzun a few times, but still did not move.

Damn, I'm really dizzy... Li Tuiguan got out of the sedan chair again, if he had something to say, he would not be interested in squeezing in the sedan chair with men.

At this time, the senior master who was guarding the Provincial Department hurriedly came out of the office, but he pounced on the air, and the people outside the gate had already dispersed.

Master Gao shook his head helplessly, and went back to Shi Shen Zheng and said, "Why should the proprietor insist on going his own way, and it has a bad reputation. ”

Shi Shenzheng said: "What does it mean to go your own way? The city of Suzhou is in disrepair, and the loss of tax and silver outside the city is serious. The new city wall is good for the country, why is it wrong? Water affairs are in vain, but the people's wealth is not seen in the short term, but the wealth can be used first, and then the river affairs will be discussed in the following year. What's more, how can you see the main thing of destroying the evil spirits and ignore them! ”

Master Gao didn't say anything anymore, walked out of the signing room, looked up and said, the sun was shining brightly, but he always felt that there was a lingering cloud.

The small turmoil in front of the Provincial Department seemed to have passed with a ripple, and the prefect Wang also learned from Li Tuiguan, saying that he was not sick.

Immediately, Shi Shenzheng also exercised his power. Since the two people who were embarrassed were picky, then he didn't need to be polite, and ordered Shen Tongzhi to act as the prefect, and sent the experience of the Department of Guarding the Road to the acting governor of the government, openly trying to seize power.

The atmosphere in the palace became strange. In this regard, Li You just sent the chief to follow Zhang San, moved a chair, and sat outside the courtyard of the Tongzhi Hall to drink tea. When the ghosts and gods were cleared, all the scribes did not dare to come here to do business, lest they be misunderstood by Shen Tongzhi after being seen. This Shen Tongzhi didn't leave the hall after he took office, and he didn't seem to have any prestige, not as powerful as Li Tuiguan.

The prefect is absent, and the same governor acts as the main hall seal, but everyone doesn't ask him to come to the counselor to use the seal, so can the normal official affairs of the government still be carried out? I was paralyzed.

Shen Tongzhi, who was holding the prefect's seal, no matter how anxious he was, didn't have the cheekiness to go to each room to take the initiative to send the seal to the door, otherwise it would really become an officialdom scandal.

As for the Tuiguan Hall, no one dares to go, who knows if Li Tuiguan will suddenly recover from his illness and come back to settle accounts after the autumn, and the eleven officials who have been issued at the beginning of the year are estimated to have arrived at the ground, presumably there don't mind a few more people.

The government is in such a mess, but Shi Shenzheng is very patient, and he doesn't think that the next group of miscellaneous servants can last long because of the general trend. Even if it is a little cloudy, under the fierce wind, it will soon disappear.

Of course, Li You will not be idle, this time he and the Wang Governor's Mansion are really desperate. He jumped up and down for several days, and finally made an appointment with Mr. Huang of the Investigation Division on a dark and windy night, and secretly stuffed a stack of papers to the other party and said: "I drafted a transcript on behalf of Chen Xundao, and the opportunity for Chen Xundao to become famous has come!" ”

Master Huang smiled after reading it: "Yo, there are eight major crimes, and the compilation is very pertinent, even Qian Huangshang and Zhao Daguan follow you to mess around." Speaking of which, you and Shi Dashen have been going back and forth, and they are really endless, which makes me dazzled. But this recital can't be made by Chen Xundao, Chen Xundao became a five-grade inspector at the age of twenty-six or seven, which is enough to make people look sideways, and then to impeach Lord Shi who is in the same city, it will inevitably be regarded as coveting the position of guarding the road, provoking insatiable material discussions. ”

He also said: "What's more, there are many rules according to the inspection division, unlike the imperial history, the middle of the matter, and the Qincha, which are specialized in suppressing the big with the small." Therefore, Chen Xundao is currently trying to raise the hope of Shilin, and second, he wants to be low-key in the officialdom, and it is the right way to keep his qualifications stable and steady, and this kind of thing is not suitable for him to do if the fifth-grade official impeaches the third-grade minister. ”

Li You said helplessly: "There is no way out for such a lower official!" Please Mr. Huang for help! ”

"How can you be cornered?" Master Huang pointed out: "You think well, Shi Shen is famous in the country, everyone is honest and selfless, and he has always been the only one who participates in others." Whoever wants to be able to participate in his book, not to mention that the world is also famous! It's a pity that Chen Xundao doesn't need this name now. I just said that the imperial court has official positions such as the Imperial History, the Imperial Minister, and the Qincha... Contrary to Chen Xundao, there are people who need these very much, this is not the road? You are also a seven-rank official now, and you are qualified to take the initiative to meet you! Where the benefits are going, what else is there to talk about! ”

All Li You's thoughts... At the beginning of the year, the buddy who ate the soft rice of the old house seemed to run far away to the Taiping Mansion in the upper reaches of Nanjing in order to avoid the responsibility of the food shortage in Suzhou Prefecture, and then he had been inspecting the Ningguo Mansion in Huizhou in the west.

But I heard that the Qin mission was about to go to Suzhou to recuperate, and it seemed that most of his term of office had passed this year, and it didn't seem to be brilliant, and he also got into trouble with colluding with eunuchs to plunder people's wealth. Send him some political achievements to clear his stigma, it should be able to make sense?

It is said that the patrol press Yu Shi Ma Qincha has no good impression of Li Tuiguan, or in other words, he has no good impression of people who have a relationship with Xujiang and Chen Xundao.

But when his henchmen brought him a thousand taels of silver and a few pieces of paper and placed them in front of him, he was moved when he saw them. Maybe the act of fame is now being said...
