Chapter 168: A Thousand Calculations Are Better Than One Missed Calculation!
When Shi Dashen's encounter spread in the city, most people only took it as a joke. I feel that this old man is really the most unlucky new official in Suzhou Mansion in recent years, and he should really go to burn incense and worship the Buddha, and do things to drive away evil and cowardice.
There are only three people who are close to Li You who are looking at flowers in the fog, and they are vaguely aware of the indescribable doorway, namely Wang Zhifu, Mr. Huang, and Zhao Liangli.
However, he said that at that time, Shi Shenzheng fled back to the official office in embarrassment, and was in a state of shock for a while, and heard the report that the people who gathered outside to make trouble had dispersed, so he was a little relieved.
Peace of mind returned to peace of mind, but his face was lost again, and it was inexplicable.
As an official of the Sanpin Imperial Court, his majesty is gone, how can he hold his head up in the future! There must be an evil cult in this, who is it? Who the hell is it?
Mr. Gao comforted: "Dong Weng doesn't have to mind. Looking at the notes of predecessors, it has always been difficult to be an official in Suzhou Prefecture. ”
That being said, it's too much to have the honor guard destroyed twice in less than two months after taking office... Unprecedented.
After a while, Mr. Gao said again: "Please Dong Weng call himself sick to the outside world, and he can't be supervised for the hospital test." ”
Shi Shenzheng's slightly trembling hand pressed the corner of the case, silent for a long time, not knowing what to think.
This Mr. Gao is really afraid that Shi will participate in politics and go to the dark, and he will not hit the south wall and not look back. In today's situation, if we insist on hunting down the mob or going to the prison trial, maybe something like this will happen.
The top priority is not to find out the truth, but to break the wrist of the strong man and cut through the mess with a quick knife. Therefore, Mr. Gao persuaded Shi Shenzheng to resign from the position of prison officer, even if he slapped himself, he had to admit it.
The examination hall is no different from other places, but it is the foundation of the bureaucracy of the country, even if tomorrow it is only a college exam. After causing chaos, the imperial court investigated it, and according to the practice of officialdom to pursue responsibility, Shi Dashen, who did not follow the old practice first, could not run away first, even if he had ten thousand truths.
Being an official and not following the rules is not necessarily a bad thing sometimes, but if something bad happens because of the lack of rules, then the person who does not follow the rules will definitely do a bad thing.
If you want to postpone the exam to avoid the cusp of this while, it is even more impossible, the examination time is set by the examiner who has been locked in the Gongyuan, and the supervisor has no right to postpone it. If you violate the rules that internal and external curtain officials are not allowed to communicate, and take the initiative to communicate with the examiner to postpone the exam, then the suspicion of fraud will not be cleared even if you jump into the Yellow River.
Therefore, for the sake of the future, no matter what plans Lord Shi has in the future, whether it is for his own future or to stabilize the overall situation, he must immediately resign from his position as a prisoner at present. You must know that the second watch in the morning of the day after tomorrow will start to fire the roll call, and it will be too late if you don't push it off.
It's a pity that neither Mr. Gao nor Shi Dashen, although they have some doubts, they don't realize Li You's true fierceness. Only making such a scene, except for watching a lively outlet, has no practical benefit, is it Li You's style?
On the other hand, the dejected Shen Tongzhi returned to the government with a giggling servant, he was too lazy to investigate the responsibility for not obeying orders and acting without authorization, it was useless, at most he would hit a few boards without pain.
When he went to report to the prefect Wang's mansion, he ran into Li Tuiguan on a narrow road.
Li You asked with concern: "There is Lao Erfu, how is the matter?" ”
Shen Tongzhi took a deep breath and replied without losing the situation: "Arrived in time and dispersed the people smoothly, fortunately there was no chaos." ”
"Oh, it is a great achievement to suppress the people's changes, and this year's examination must be a lot of color, and the lower officials will give Shen Daren a blessing first." Li You congratulated him from the bottom of his heart.
In other words, the examination plan of the second official of the government department is to be reported to the branch guard, it is hard to imagine what Shi Dashen's mood is after seeing that Lord Shen's merit is thin.
Shen Tongzhi was so angry that he was about to vomit blood, and he didn't continue to talk to Li You. After meeting the prefect in a hurry, he returned to the Tongzhi Hall and retreated again.
He reflected that he had not made a mistake for more than a month, and that he should continue to persevere today, and should not be in a hurry to perform. So I silently recited the mantra of "do more wrong, do less wrong, and don't do well" dozens of times.
He also turned out a popular romance of the Three Kingdoms, and watched Zhuge Liang's six stories of Qishan. When others look at the Three Kingdoms, they are all substituted for Zhuge Wuhou, but Shen Tongzhi has a special hobby and likes to substitute for the ninja Sima Yi.
Forbearance, forbearance, forbearance.
Li Youmu sent Shen Tongzhi away, asked a few words about his fellow officials, and then went to see the prefect Wang.
"The lower official said hello to the mansion!" Li You sincerely congratulated him for the second time today.
After reading the official document in his hand, Governor Wang raised his head and said, "Where does the joy come from?" ”
Li You said with a smile: "I'm afraid Shi Dashen won't go to the prison to try." Isn't it worth rejoicing if the dignity of the house is lost and regained? What he said was naturally not a seat, but a face.
After pondering for a while, Governor Wang knew that what Li You said was reasonable, and at this point, Shi Dashen was afraid that he would not have the face to go to the prison to take the test, not to mention that there was a very unpredictable risk for him, who knows if there would be trouble in the examination room.
However, the prefect of the king disagrees with this, which is nothing to be happy about, after all, he is the official who is directly in charge of you.
"Shi Dashen is going to be imprisoned, and now he has caused public opinion to be uneven, and the momentum is like a volcano. If you want to stay in the house, the house can refuse to accept it! Li Youjin said.
Hearing this, the Wang Governor's Mansion felt terrified, Li You was simply a desperate plan to be extremely poisonous, and he wanted to force Shi Shenzheng to the point that there was nowhere to stay in Suzhou Mansion.
Imagine, if Shi participates in politics and goes to the prison to take the test, it will be similar to stepping on a minefield; If you do not go to prison, you are blatant dereliction of duty; Return it to the Suzhou government, and the government can also not take it.
To put it bluntly, it is an institution that supervises government affairs, not an administrative system such as provincial capitals, prefectures and counties.
It seems that there is only one way for Shi to participate in politics, and Li Tuiguan also walked this road when there was a rice shortage at the end of February, you know. Lord Shi was afraid that he would never have dreamed that what seemed to be a simple and powerful business, with the fame of the imperial examination and the power of the boss, should be invincible, but he was finally tossed by Li You to this extent.
Governor Wang thought about it, shook his head and said, "It's not necessarily good. ”
How can Li You not know about the taboo on the next gram? But he can't help it, although there is no direct conflict of interest between him and Shi Shenzheng, even if it is a battle of will, and the "snapping" slap in the face of each other is so much, it is irreconcilable.
In the middle, the old prefect of Wang, who connects the previous and the next, is very crucial. This old man is relatively soft and likes to avoid problems, so Li You wants to desperately encourage the confrontation between the prefect of Wang and Shi Shenzheng.
"I'll discuss it when the official text is transferred." Wang Zhifu finally said.
However, Li You and Wang Zhifu were about to wait for Cheng Wangfu Shi, and they didn't wait for the news of Lord Shi's resignation from the prison officer. Suddenly, Li You was a little surprised, could it be that he had misjudged? Will Shi Shenzheng really go to the prison hospital with a tendon of brains?
In fact, Li You did not make a mistake in judgment, Shi Dashen did hand over the position of prison officer, but he handed it over to Chen Xundao, the inspector of the division... Lord Li is waiting for official documents in the government, and he can't wait until the earth is barren and the sea is dry and rotten.
However, it was said that the sub-department urgently transferred the document to the sub-department of the inspection department and wanted to hand it over to the position of the superintendent. After reading it, Chen Xundao felt that the matter was very important, and brought Master Huang to discuss it.
Master Huang analyzed: "I heard that in the afternoon, hundreds of children gathered in the branch of the Provincial Department to make noise, and Shi Dashen was afraid that the chaos would spread to Mingyue, so he left his post from Qing'er. ”
Chen Xundao didn't think about the hospital exam, but thoughtfully digressed, "In your opinion, is this incident Li You doing?" ”
"If there is anything involved, it is certainly not what he instigated and instigated, and he will not fall into these ways; But if you want to say that it has nothing to do with it, it is not all, it is difficult to explain it, and I have seen the key but I can't see it clearly. ”
"If he caused it, it would be unreasonable for a gentleman." Master Chen sighed.
This sentence is not so much about Li You, but about himself. Everyone is mixed with officialdom, and Lord Chen, who is basically smooth sailing, suddenly thinks about it, what if he encounters something similar? The Four Books and Five Classics and his teacher are not effective for ten thousand years, and sometimes I really envy Li You for daring to act.
To this, Master Huang replied, "Neither a gentleman nor a villain." The way of a saint is only feasible for a saint. But who can say that he is a saint? Are they all villains who are not saints? There is also a golden mean between the saint and the villain. Therefore, the sage said, and according to it, the sage's intention is in the heart, so as to cultivate oneself. As for the world, when the sea is inclusive, tolerance is great, and practical results are the first. ”
Chen Xundao didn't continue to talk about it, but said: "I look at Li You, the hatred is too strong, the revenge is too heavy, and I have the opportunity to persuade him to cultivate his heart and cultivate his surname." ”
Master Huang had a flash of inspiration, and slapped a fluttering cactus with his hand and complimented: "Master Li was under the proprietor at the beginning, and he was still able to control it. Now there are no tigers in the mountains of Nafu Yali, which makes him more and more lawless. thought that the city was full of civil and military, and only the proprietor had the ability to control him. ”
Chen Xundao laughed and said: "Don't talk about this, the errand of this prison examination is a hot potato, to take it or not?" ”
It's really hot, but now rumors are raging, all beings are unstable, and even the trouble has come out. Who can guarantee that there will be no mess during the exam? It's really going to be a scene, and whoever takes over is unlucky.
Master Huang frowned and thought about it again and again before he said, "It's still a good reception." The district and district examinations should be nothing, and the township examinations in the second half of this year are the most important. The practice in other provinces is that the prefect supervises the temporary hospital examination, and the governor supervises the township examination. But I don't have a governor in Jiangnan, and in terms of taste, Su Song, where the Gongyuan is located, is the most suitable to guard the Taoist prison and take the township test. But now that Shi Dashen was entangled by Li You, the chaos can be called a big loss because of a small loss, looking at the current appearance, what kind of face does he have to go to the prison in the second half of the year to take the test? ”
Hearing this, Chen Xundao's eyes lit up, and he obviously understood what Master Huang meant. If he, Su Song, can successfully supervise the hospital test, then in the second half of the year, the township test should be continued by him, and it is estimated that Shi Dashen will not have the face to come out and compete for the prison officer.
It is the prerogative of the governor to supervise the township test in other provinces, if he Chen Yingzhen can supervise a township test, in a sense, it is not equivalent to having the hope of the governor?
Thinking of this, Chen Xundao was overjoyed and said to Master Huang: "The matter of luck is really wonderful and unpredictable. Li You and Shi Dashen were messing around, which made the official a little profitable. ”
Master Huang reminded that the premise of everything is that the examination of the academy should not be messed up this time, and this responsibility has to be pressed on Li You, and the bell still needs to be tied to the bell.
Lord Chen didn't know that Li You's calculations could have been profitable... Or windfall profits.
Having said that, Shi Dashen didn't see through Li You's trickery. But out of the desire to find himself under the steps, he still refused to return the position of the prison officer to the government office, but he escaped by mistake, which was the only fortunate thing he had come to Suzhou Mansion. Compared with being besieged by Diao Min, this can be regarded as a real escape.
After Li You learned the news, he almost grabbed the ground with his head, why didn't he expect that there was a sub-patrol road yamen in the city that was parallel to the sub-patrol road! In the habitual thinking, I only think about the government.
A thousand calculations are better than one omission! Lord Chen, you were too low-key after you arrived in Fucheng, and the low-key officials almost forgot about you.
