Chapter 33: A Grasshopper on a Vine

"Fourth master, the eldest master is in a hurry, and he is looking for you everywhere, and he has rummaged through this corner and corner, and I can't imagine that you are here!!".

As soon as Zheng Qingming finished speaking, a servant ran over out of breath and hurriedly said.

"What a panic, lead the way !! ahead" Zheng Qingming was very dissatisfied with this guy's use of turtle characters to describe his footing here, and glared at the official fiercely.

"Tsk".

"Sir, are you looking for me?" , Zheng Qingming entered the inner hall, and saw Gu Qiming, the magistrate of Jiangning County, sitting upright in the front hall of the inner hall, with a worried face.

"Qingming, call me brother-in-law without anyone else, didn't I say it, you are the only one in this county government who is the most trusted person in this official."

Zheng Qingming's sister is twenty-eight years old, married to Gu Qiming, who is nearly fifty years old, as a concubine, extremely favored, loves the house and Wu, and Gu Qiming also trusts Zheng Qingming very much.

The important and private matters in this county government were handed over to Zheng Qingming to handle.

"Yes, yes, brother-in-law, are you in a hurry to find me, is there something wrong?" Zheng Qingming nodded and said.

"The Governor sent someone to tell him that Wu Sangui, the king of Pingxi, and his concubine Chen Yuanyuan returned to their hometown to worship their ancestors and sweep the tombs, and they wanted to settle down in the county government, I want you to go to the Qinhuai River to find a singing troupe, remember, not too good, not too !!bad."

Gu Qiming said close to Zheng Qingming's ear.

Why is that? The king of Pingxi wants to come to my Jiangning County, why don't you find a top-notch opera troupe to sing? Zheng Qingming asked puzzled.

"What do you know, according to the Governor, the princess of the King of Pingxi, Chen Yuanyuan, wants to sing in person, if you find a too powerful troupe, doesn't it take the limelight of the princess, can the King of Pingxi be happy?"

Gu Qiming patted Zheng Qingming's shoulder and said.

"What my brother-in-law said is very true, Qingming will do it." Zheng Qingming got up and was going to do something, although Zheng Qingming was so showy, his ability to do things was really not low, otherwise the county order would not have entrusted him with many important tasks.

"Wait a while, there is one more thing, you need to be very cautious and careful, don't let anyone know, go to the Qinhuai River to find a stunning singer, preferably a chick !!."

Gu Qiming hugged his brother-in-law's shoulders again.

"This, brother-in-law, the king of Pingxi brought his family Chen Yuanyuan, and you also arranged a singer for him, aren't you afraid that Chen Yuanyuan will be jealous and thankless?" Zheng Qingming was flattered, but still asked suspiciously.

"I usually say that you are smart and capable, where did you eat today, your brain has become weak, this singer is prepared for the Governor of Liangjiang!!".

Gu Qiming lowered his voice and said.

"Brother-in-law is wise, I'll do !!."

"Wait a minute, I'll emphasize to you again, this time it is the Governor who came to Jiangning in person, if the errand is done, this official can naturally rise to prominence and get a chance to be promoted; But if you mess up, it will be a loss of office and a crime, or a prison sentence and a death sentence, you have to put some thought, you and I are grasshoppers on a vine, you know? ”。 Gu Qiming said with a straight face.

"Remember the lowly position, the lowly duty must work hard, if it is done badly, raise the head to see the !!."

Zheng Qingming no longer despised it, knelt down and saluted the magistrate and hurried away.

This official must have a relationship between his superiors and subordinates, and how to do a good job in the relationship between his superiors and subordinates is too important.

Zheng Qingming is a very clear person in this regard.

That is, when it should be a brother and friend, it is a brother and friend, and when it should be a superior, it is a superior.

As for when you are a buddy and when you are a superior, you can only rely on yourself according to the situation.

And many people have been wondering why this official sometimes calls him a brother and sister peacefully, but in a blink of an eye, he made a tone and put on the style of an official master.

When the official is doing business, he needs your loyalty and obedience, but you want your buddy to be righteous;

When the official master drinks and is happy, what he needs is the righteousness of his buddies, but you are trembling and conscientious, treating others as big leaders, and you dare not let go of your hands and feet to toast.

Such a person must have no future, no matter what dynasty he is in, he has no future.
