Chapter 592: Helpless
After eating a reception banquet, Li Bojian was like sitting on pins and needles.
Although he has not been an official for a short time, he has always been out and about, almost all in the south, and has never encountered any major events, so naturally he has no experience in dealing with internal servants.
The angel called Xu Jizong, who had only moved into the small bottom of the city and the deputy envoy of Luoyuan a few years ago, was the secretary of the Guangnan West Road Economic Strategy signed by the mandate of heaven.
This person was in charge of patrolling and exploring, and almost the entire banquet was asking all kinds of questions about the post-war reconstruction of Yongzhou, except for the majority of them who went to Chen and Gu, and the rest were coming towards him.
After more than an hour, Li Bojian couldn't even eat a few bites of rice, and his back was already covered with cold sweat when asked.
The angel asked carefully and completely, and many of the words were obviously instructed by the Son of Heaven, but it was almost difficult for him to do it perfunctorily.
Face-to-face Q&A is not the same as folding, the latter can also sharpen the spring and autumn, find ways to cover up mistakes, promote strengths and avoid weaknesses, the former can only answer hard, and there is no chance to avoid it.
If this Xu Duzhi just came to Yongzhou for a spin and only stayed for a few days, he might be able to think of a way to deal with the past, but this person was prepared to stay for a year or two, if he lied, or if he talked about him left and right, it would not be easy for him to see through it in the future and play it in front of the Son of Heaven.
Li Bojian has a shallow foundation in the end, and he has not gone through any major events, after eating a table, his whole body is sore and his legs are weak, and no one sees him, almost holding on to the wall to return to the back office.
As soon as he entered the study, he called a few of his staff members over, told him about his performance at the banquet today, and asked for everyone's opinions.
Those who are willing to follow Li Bojian, an obviously unpromising official, to the wild land of Yongzhou are naturally not outstanding talents, and everyone gathered in one place to discuss for a long time, but they did not come up with a unified proposal.
"General Judge......" a staff member whispered, "The villain heard that the inner servant is so wealthy, why don't you find an opportunity to quietly send some etiquette and Xu Duzhi to see what kind of reaction he has, if he accepts it, and then see what he does - as long as he can make a sure number, grit his teeth and send gold and silver to deal with this person, it is simply ......"
Before the man finished speaking, another staff member interrupted him at once and said: "You don't want to come nonsense, the servants have their own temperaments, if you meet someone who is willing to accept it, if you meet someone who is jealous and hateful, I am afraid that if there is no big thing in the first place, it will make a big deal for you!" ”
Another person chimed in: "I also heard that the inner servants are different from others, they never accept gifts from ordinary people, and they have to have a way to introduce them, so that they have the courage to look at it - after all, they are close to the Son of Heaven, and they are not completely sure, who dares to do such things that cut off their own future......"
The staff member who first proposed was opposed by the two, and only sneered, and said: "It's just a eunuch, and he doesn't even have roots, where will he care about the future!" ”
The people began to argue over whether or not to bribe a eunuch with gold or silver.
Li Bojian listened to it with a big head.
There are still piles of paperwork as high as a mountain on the table in front of him to be processed, and he is tired of countless things that should have been arranged waiting for him to show him, and at this time he returned to the back office to discuss private matters with his staff, and before even a quarter of an hour arrived, he saw a few officials patrolling by the courtyard gate from a distance, looking anxious to find him, and he didn't dare to go inside.
The more he listened, the more annoyed he became, but he really knew that his performance during the banquet was really bad, and if Xu Du knew that he was playing according to the facts, the credit that he had saved so easily when defending the city would be wiped out by the mistakes made in the reconstruction of the state city.
When he was annoyed, suddenly a staff member whispered: "General judgment, the villain has a word...... During the day, there were people talking about it in front of the front office outside, as if they said that Xu Duzhi moved into the inner small bottom to know, because he was ordered by the emperor to go to Ganzhou to do an errand last time, and he got the weight of the Son of Heaven, in fact, he had a lot of friendship with that Gu Gouyuan...... Gu Gouyuan's temperament is known through the judgment, so it is better to go and inquire with him to see what kind of food Xu Du knows, it is better than us speculating in the back, and it is also less detours. ”
Li Bojian heard what the other party said, and suddenly his heart moved, and he suddenly remembered what Xu Jizong and Gu Yanzhang said during the banquet, "I haven't seen each other for many years", I only thought that the two of them had met in the capital, and I didn't think about it in other places, who would have expected that there would be such a relationship in the future, and suddenly became a little moved.
The staff member who was the first to come up with an idea immediately refuted: "This matter needs to be considered in the long run, if it is noticed by that Gu official, and it will be used as a basis for coercion in the future, what should be the general judgment?" ”
As soon as this person spoke, the whole room looked at him with the eyes of a fool, and it was Li Bojian, who also glanced at him with some disgust.
- Gu Yanzhang is coerced with this?
Not to mention that he wouldn't be stupid enough to ask bluntly, and then to let the other party know about the shadowy thing, what is there worth blackmailing him?
I've never heard of a fox and a fake tiger to intimidate the weak, but I've never heard of a tiger meeting a rabbit, and I have to find a way to coerce it, as long as I go down with one paw......
Thinking of this, Li Bojian shuddered involuntarily, and when he came back to his senses, he immediately felt that he was afraid that he was not frightened and dizzy during the banquet, and something was wrong.
- How can anyone compare himself to a rabbit, although in terms of ability, his own family is a little worse...... Well, maybe it's more than a little worse......
He made up his mind, and while instructing his staff to run their own errands, he hurried out of the door.
You can wait a few days to find out about this Xu Duzhi, and then go to Gu Yanzhang when you find a suitable opportunity, but the waiting officials at the door still have countless important state affairs to deal with, but they can't wait for a moment.
There is already a bunch of chaos in the city, and I can't cope with it when I'm anxious, and if I drag out a big thing again, no matter how much I think about it this time, I can't cover it up.
***
On the one hand, Li Bojian was busy with the affairs of the state, and on the other hand, he was eagerly waiting for the right opportunity to inquire with Gu Yanzhang about the preferences of "Xu Duzhi", and on the other hand, after Chen Hao took office, he soon began to rectify the state government.
Wu Yi has been ill for a long time, and all the things he originally had in hand have already been handed over to Li Bojian.
What is Li Bojian's identity, and what is Wu Yi's identity?
Even if the former found out that there was something wrong in the account books and treasury, he didn't dare to say more, and said a little or two, and when he saw that the other party was pretending to be stupid, he could only grit his teeth and admit it.
However, Li Bo simply admitted that he was willing to admit that since the siege of Jiaozhi to the present, he has been so busy that he has one head and two big, where is he free to stare at the next person to put the account books and warehouses on the number, and at this time the fire burned his eyebrows, so he had to urge the doorman to help sort out the accounts.
