Chapter 114: Taking Office

According to Manager Mu's explanation, Bai Jue and I needed to go to the southeast gate of the palace early in the morning, called "Consumption Gate", and wait at the entrance. When the palace door opens, you can enter the palace with a letter of introduction, and then go straight to the Taiwei Mansion to report to take office.

This morning is really something I don't like a lot, although I deliberately asked the shopkeeper to wake me up on time, but when I tried everything to get there, Bai Jue still arrived early. For he was walking anxiously about, as if he had waited impatiently!

I trotted over, nodded and bowed, and kept saying to him, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, listen to me, I'm late for a reason,......"

"Okay, okay, I don't want to hear those stories you make up, let's go!" He urged.

I hurriedly laughed with him and walked into the palace with him.

In the city of Luoyang, the imperial palace occupies most of the area. In addition to being divided into two palaces, the north and south palaces, there are also some central core office spaces on the periphery. This palace is located in the southeast corner of the imperial palace, and because it was originally a very important institution to assist the emperor's office, it was very close to the place where the ministers went to court.

Of course, we can't take advantage of the time of the previous court, but we have to come before dawn, which is quite hard physical work. When reporting for duty on the first day, it is natural that no one will have time to deal with these miscellaneous matters until the relatively large leaders go down to the court, drink tea and rest, and give lectures to their subordinates, and the sun has risen high.

So although we didn't come early, we waited a long time before someone came to receive us.

Although Bai Jue and I are both newcomers, after all, we are people appointed by the emperor, and these few officials who were ordered to help us go through the formalities are quite polite. Everyone is actually the same age. After a few words, you will get acquainted.

In the process of talking to everyone, I have gained a lot of knowledge. Since it is called Taifu Mansion, the biggest official must be Taifu. I knew before that the official position of Taifu has two main functions, one is to concurrently serve as the prime minister and assist the new monarch; The other was to serve as a tutor for the crown prince, teaching him how to deal with people and govern the country.

But I only know from what they say. If a first prince dies in office, in order to show respect, he will not be appointed unless necessary. In other words, Taifu is not a permanent official title.

The current situation is like this, after the death of the previous Taifu Zhao Jun, because there is no change of throne, Liu Zhi has never had a son, so the position of Taifu is currently vacant.

In addition to Taifu, there are also upper-level officials like Changshi. After that, it was the turn of a middle-level Peng genus like me Bai Jue, like the leader of the pig's head squad. We also have the grassroots officials such as Ling Shi and Imperial Subordinates under us.

I thought that the winner of this competition would have a chance to be the Taifu, but it seems that I was thinking too simply. It's really scary to be uneducated!

Either way, I don't want to be a civil servant here. I still have business to do! And even if I wanted to work hard, I basically couldn't read the information they gave me, and I couldn't use my wisdom to use it. It's like a canary in a cage, so boring!

When I went to another room not far away to play with Bai Jue, I found that he was reading the case file seriously. I didn't have time to pay attention to me, and I couldn't help but feel even more lost.

Fortunately, it was just mixed into the afternoon. I heard a servant under my command running to me, saying that someone was looking for me.

I was overjoyed and ran out of the office gate to see that it was Mr. Mu! At this moment, seeing his fat face, I really want to pounce and kiss the two of them!

But his expression was a little gloomy, and I quickly let him into the house. He spread the people around him and asked, "What's the matter, my father-in-law seems to have something on his mind!" ”

He glanced at me and said, "I can't talk about my heart, I want to talk to you." ”

"What's the matter?"

"That Ling Yunyan who is playing with you. Do you remember? In the second game, he used his hands and feet to blow people's heads up. He said.

"This ...... Of course...... remember, "It's only been two days, how could I forget?" But when he wanted to mention that disgusting incident, it immediately gave me a sense of the picture, and the disgusting smell seemed to waft around my nose again.

"Didn't I have her sent to prison at the time, who knew that she suddenly disappeared last night! The cell door was intact, no one saw her, and a big living person disappeared out of thin air! Manager Mu said, waving his two hands in the air, as if to describe Ling Yunyan turning into a puff of smoke and flying.

"Did you interrogate her before that, who broke her spell?" I asked hurriedly.

"Spell breaking? Are you saying that the headshot was because her spell was broken, not because she made a mistake herself? Mr. Mu was a little surprised.

Alas, I still haven't asked!

In fact, although the news was a bit sudden, it was not unexpected. Ling Yunyan's ability is the most deeply felt by these people. If one can control the emotions and thoughts of others, what else can't be done? Until now, I don't know exactly what she did to me, how I could carry a stone as a trophy and fight for it!

Such a person, even if he is sent to a prison, wants to come out without knowing it, I'm afraid it won't be a difficult thing.

But it also happens to be such a person, who will be broken at the most critical moment, and he is so ugly, which is even more difficult to solve. What kind of character will the person who can bully her like that, but who has not been confessed by her at the last moment?

Seeing that I was lost in thought, Mr. Mu patted me on the shoulder and said, "Okay, I don't have time to think about her now." But His Majesty sent me to ask you what you want to do next. ”

I thought for a moment and asked, "Manager Mu, do you remember that on the way out of the palace that night, you ran into the other three fathers-in-law?" ”

He recalled for a moment, nodded and said, "Well, what's wrong?" ”

"Then, do the three fathers-in-law know about Wang Che? I mean, do you know why Wang Che was imprisoned, and where he was imprisoned? ”

Manager Mu was stunned for a moment, touched his chin and thought for a long time before he said hesitantly: "I think, I should know." ”

I listened, sighed, bowed my head and muttered, "This is a little difficult......

In fact, I have considered this situation in advance, but at the moment, it is obvious that I can't let Mr. Mu feel that I am thoughtful, and I must pretend to it.

"What's so hard?"

"My original idea was that we would use Wang Che to lure his son out so that he could be arrested. But if outsiders know Wang Che's identity, then letting Wang Che appear in public will definitely attract their attention, and when the time comes, they won't know who will kill the deer. I explained.

Manager Mu thought about it, nodded his head in agreement, and asked, "What should I do then?" ”

"I have a way! Please arrange it, I want to meet Wang Che. I said. (To be continued.) )
