In the living room, Mei Feng said to Gu Yunji: "I know that you have already made a general judgment for one term, and you are familiar enough with the official affairs of the local state capital, but I still want to remind you that the situation in Shaoxing Mansion and even the entire coastal areas of Zhejiang and Fujian is relatively special, so you should be more careful and cautious in your actions."

"Mainly because this is an area infested by the Japanese invaders all year round, and in order to defend against the Japanese invaders, you, as the chief executive, will inevitably have to deal with the military attachés. I know very well what the military attache in Zhejiang is like, he has a proud personality, a bad temper, is tough and hard, and looks down on civilian officials."

These Gu Yunji have already learned from Qiu Wugang, it seems that this situation is not an exception, and it is even relatively common, in the future, whenever it involves the official duties of the Taoist military attaché, you will know that it must be very tricky when you think about it.

Mei Feng said: "But no matter how proud they are, you should remember that even if the other party is higher than you, as long as you are at the same level, you are equal, and you don't have to follow each other in everything. Today, don't say that you are the commander Qiu Wugang, even if the commander comes, you can only do what you have to do, but you will ignore anyone who commands you to call you around."

"What if you upset the other party, you are a civil official, and they can't control you. You really can't handle it, so you put the blame on me, and I'll go and fight with them. Of course, if you encounter any difficulties, you can always come to me."

Gu Yunji's heart swelled with warmth, and he smiled and nodded, "Okay, thank you, senior brother."

Mei Feng took a sip of tea to moisten his throat, and subconsciously looked around, as if he had some scruples. Xu Shuhua was keenly aware of his gaze, motioned to the servants to retreat, closed the doors and windows, coaxed his daughter to play elsewhere, and sat back after confirming that there was no one around.

Mei Feng continued: "Neither of us is an outsider, so I'll break it for you. His Majesty is suspicious, and he is most taboo about private teaching and acceptance between civil officials and military generals. You came out of the Hanlin Academy again, and you attracted the attention of many parties when you were in the middle of the year, don't look at you now far away from the capital, maybe Your Majesty is always paying attention to you."

"You get along with the local military attaché in the ordinary, or even a little worse, it doesn't matter, but it can better dispel Your Majesty's doubts. After all, you became the prefect at such a young age, and you will definitely return to Beijing in the future, and now that Your Majesty trusts you a little more, you will be able to relax a little more in the future."

Although Gu Yunji is not in the capital now, judging from Emperor Jingfeng's measures and governance methods in recent years, his suspicions are indeed getting heavier and heavier. Gu Yunji knew that Mei Feng was not alarmist, but really thinking about himself, so he nodded solemnly: "Senior brother, don't worry, I will definitely remember everything."

Concerned about Gu Yunji's future and safety, Xu Shuhua couldn't help but worry: "Dingguo Gong has a great prestige in the army, and our family has such a good relationship with Su Qi, will it ......?"

Mei Feng said with relief: "You don't have to worry about this for the time being, it is precisely because of the prestige of the Su family, especially the northern defense line, that it is inseparable from the Dingguo prince's lineage. Your Majesty is jealous, but it is impossible to make a move on the Su family easily."

"What's more, you and Su Qi met when they were teenagers and were classmates at Luxi Academy, and your Majesty knows about your relationship. Now if you deliberately alienate yourself and avoid suspicion, you want to cover it up, which is more likely to arouse your majesty's suspicions. You should just not know what to do, and just get along naturally."

Xu Shuhua breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, so he put his mind at ease.

Mei Feng said: "Although I am the governor, I can give my junior brother a cover for major matters, but in terms of small matters, especially the interpersonal relationship between officials, I still have to rely on my junior brother to explore it himself, and I can't help you."

"Among the military attachés, Dingguo Gong has been in a dominant line for many years, and His Majesty intends to divide from within it, and in recent years, he has launched a military campaign and promoted many military attaches from the bottom of the ranks. Some time ago, I received news that there was a vacancy in the command of the capital of Zhejiang, and His Majesty was going to send Shen Baiyi, who was born as a martial artist, to take up this position."

"Zhejiang's Japanese plague is serious, and the local military attaché's main daily military affairs are to resist the Japanese invaders, it is said that this Shen commander decided to be stationed in Shaoxing Mansion after much consideration, and you will inevitably deal with him at that time, you should pay more attention."

The commander is similar to the political envoy, and is a military governor at the provincial level, although he is still not as good as the governor, but he also has the power to control all the guards in Zhejiang. If such a large military governor is stationed in Shaoxing Mansion, the Shaoxing Government should be indispensable to defend against the Japanese invaders

Cooperation.

Thinking like this, Gu Yunji asked, "Does that senior brother know what the origin of this Shen Baiyi is? What's your temperament and style?"

Mei Feng thought for a while and said, "Shen Baiyi is from the military attaché's side, and I don't know much about his temperament and style of doing things. However, judging from his past resume, although he has military achievements, he inevitably seems mediocre, and some of them are not worthy of his too smooth path to promotion."

"The commander of the capital is a second-rank official, because of the trouble, the commander of Zhejiang is even more powerful, this position is so important, Your Majesty can send Shen Baiyi, which means that he is most likely a close confidant of His Majesty."

"After all, he is a provincial-level military governor and a member of His Majesty's people, if you arrive at Shaoxing Mansion at that time, you can cooperate with him. If there is a difficulty, it is still the same sentence, just leave it to me, senior brother, and I will solve it for you."

As they were talking, lunch was ready, so the three of them stopped talking and got up to eat.

Mei Feng is the governor of a province, busy with official business, today Gu Yunji is on duty, he rarely takes half a day to support his junior brother, and by the way to visit their family.

After lunch, Mei Feng didn't stay longer and went back to continue his official business.

With such a senior brother as Mei Feng on his back, Gu Yunji really felt more confident, and the officials of the government were a lot more polite when they saw him, and all official affairs were carried out smoothly, and he soon had a preliminary understanding of Shaoxing Mansion.

Mei Feng did what he said, and within a few days, he coordinated with the officials of Jinhua Mansion and transported the stones for road repair. The road in the swamp pond is not easy to repair, it is related to the transportation of military materials, and it has been delayed for so long, Gu Yunji attaches great importance to it, and goes to the scene every day to check the progress of road repair.

When Gu Yunji was in Xuzhou Mansion, he was a person who was used to doing all kinds of work, and he couldn't be idle at all, sometimes he couldn't help but go down to take a hand and work with the people.

The people were sincerely scared at first, and they had never seen such a "down-to-earth" official, but they really couldn't stop it, so they slowly got used to it.

So a few days after Gu Yunji took office, his good reputation was faintly spread among the people, saying that he would bow down to everything, treat people kindly, and not be afraid of hard work...... and so on, so that he gained the trust of many yamen officials and quickly integrated into the local area.

Fu Zida is also young, full of enthusiasm for serving the country. Seeing Gu Yunji's hardships and hard work, on the one hand, he agreed in his heart, and on the other hand, he felt that as a general judge, he should follow the prefect, so he followed Gu Yunji to the construction site every day to check, helped to work together, and ran around with him every day, Chen Peishi's errands were almost snatched away by him.
