Chapter 40 Induction
An Ying stood in the official room of Su Huangzhe of the Criminal Department.
"How did you figure it out again? I heard that your family's tea shop in the capital has opened? β
An Ying smiled embarrassedly and said carefully, "Thanks to Mrs. Shen for helping." I wasn't worried about how busy my family was, but I didn't expect things to go very smoothly. That, I didn't actually think about it before, but I will figure it out, being able to go directly to the criminal department to do things, how many people can't ask for a blessing. I heard that there is an examination every six months, and only two students are admitted to each department. β
Su Huangzhe signed the list and handed it to An Ying.
"I don't care why you came to the Criminal Department, but you are quick-thinking, bold and careful, and able to endure hardships, which is indeed very suitable for us. There are many people who are admitted to the Criminal Department every year, and they all start from non-hierarchical records, and you are the same. Turn left when you go out, go to the king's book to register, and if you don't understand anything, you can also ask the king's book. β
When going through the formalities at Master Wang's book, An Ying met Yang Ye unexpectedly.
"Brother Yang, I'm also recording now. Ming'er will come to work in the criminal department, and we will be colleagues in the future. β
Before Yang Ye could answer, the voice of the male duck of the king master book sounded: "An Ying, you are different from Yang Ye. He was recommended by the Jinling Mansion Academy to do the transcription, and he only had to work five days a month to complete ten volumes. You are hired by our criminal department, and you have one day off every ten days, and you are assigned to Class A, which happens to be the first day of duty. β
Oh, it turns out that the channels are different, and the treatment is not the same. An Ying silently calculated in her heart.
Master Wang continued: "Civilian, once a year, you will be evaluated by the peak, you can be promoted if you do well, and if you do poorly, you will pack up your baggage and get out." Usually, the criminal department is in charge of three meals, and you can just eat it after you go to the back, and you won't have it after a while. Also, you have just joined the company, you don't have a collar, and you measure clothes in March and September every year, so you don't come at the right time, you have to wait until September. β
Wang Zhushu said as An Ying remembered. Yang Ye next to him said with a smile: "Wang Ting, okay, I'll take her to the canteen for lunch later, and I'll talk to her about anything later." She can't remember you pouring beans like this. β
The canteen of the Criminal Department. There were a lot of people at this time, and An Ying couldn't squeeze in at all, so Yang Ye jumped inside a few times, and squeezed out of the people with a food plate in each hand.
"Come on, that's it. If it's a little later, there will be only cooking cakes and soup, and there will be no meat dishes. β
"Yo, Miss An, you're here too." Zhong Tianfu walked next to him, "I didn't expect you to come to the Criminal Department to do things." Thinking that a few months ago, you were still standing pitifully at the door of the prison of the Ministry of Punishment. Ay. β
The three of them ate together, and An Ying asked, "Brother Zhong is a military attachΓ©, so isn't it the same as a civil official?" Are vacations and monthly salaries different? β
Zhong Tianfu said with a smile: "That is, we are all rough people who are soldiers, and after we come back, we will take the way to a certain position in the criminal department." When I was a soldier before, I mixed up with a captain of Rong, from the ninth grade, to the criminal department for a few years, and Shangfeng promoted me to the captain of Renyong, so I am now taking the moon of the ninth grade. Three taels of silver a month, two copper coins, and a stone of grain. It's still okay to support your family on weekdays. β
An Ying calculated in her heart that this income was already very good, and she had three meals and clothes for four seasons. Zhong Tianfu took a bite of the steamed cake, chewed it a few times, pointed at Yang Ye and said: "They are different scholars, if he takes the Jinshi exam in the future, he will be assigned to the official position of the fifth grade." You don't have a grade to do recording, and then you are straight, which is from the eighth grade. β
"Then can I also be a five-grade official?" An Ying felt a little incredible.
Yang Ye lowered his voice and said, "It stands to reason that it is okay." But female officials above the fifth rank are all high-ranking nobles, you know? β
An Ying nodded clearly, took a bite of the steamed cake, it was very hard, and couldn't help frowning.
Yang Ye said again: "It's not delicious, right? Hey, I heard that the owner of the canteen is Ma Zongli's brother-in-law in Simen Lang, and he takes money from the Criminal Department every year to fool us with this kind of food. On the side, Zhong Tianfu kicked him, and with a glance of his eyes, he saw Ma Zongli standing behind him.
An Ying asked, "Then what do I do on weekdays when I record like this?" Is it also copying case files? She thought in her heart that it would be good if she could take out the Gongcha case file in front of her and take a look.
"Don't think about it, Yang Ye was introduced by Jinling Mansion Academy. You are the recorder of Group A, and you all follow Master Su directly to handle the case, and there are Xiao Yi and his brothers in the group, as well as Guo Langzhong, you all know each other. Oh, by the way, you should be on the top of the cloud climb, cloud commentary. β
Since the last trip to Shuanglin Mountain in Huzhou, Xiao Yi has a good impression of An Ying, and when he heard that An Ying went to the Criminal Department to work and joined Group A, he happily came to find her.
"Come on, I'll take you to Yunpan."
"Brother Yi, can I read the previous files? I just arrived, I don't know how to do things, and I want to learn from the previous case first. β
"Generally speaking, if you look at the previous case file, you have to submit the application first, and the criminal department Lang Zhong or above agrees. If it is an ordinary case, it will usually be approved. If it's a confidential case, no. I think you can just listen to the arrangement and do things, and you can't see anything like the dossier when you first come. β
An Ying nodded, still secretly calculating, when there was a commotion at the door.
As soon as a tall thin man in a crimson green cotton robe walked in the door, Xiao Yi immediately jumped up and said, "Yun Dianshi, why are you here?" β
An Ying hurriedly got up and saluted, this was probably his direct boss in the future.
"You're the new female recorder? Or was it hired by Master Su himself? It just so happens that the case is coming, you and Xiao Yi and I go to the lobby. β
An Ying didn't dare to say more, and followed him outside.
"Our Group A mainly handles criminal cases transferred from other places that have been approved and signed by Master Su. Criminal cases in various localities are handled by local government officials, and the case files are sent to the Criminal Department for review, and Group C is responsible for this matter. If there is a difficult and miscellaneous case, Mr. Su will issue it to Group A or Group B to deal with. Each group is in charge of Langzhong of the Criminal Department, and Guo Langzhong is in charge of our group A. β
"Some time ago, I heard that you participated in the investigation of Gongcha and did well. I have heard Guo Langzhong say several times that you are meticulous and good at reading confessions. In this case, you will be responsible for sorting out the confession file, remember not to leak any information about the case outside at will, read more and do more and talk less. β
Xiao Yi followed, "Miss An, don't be nervous, just follow us." Yun Commentary, what kind of case is it today? β
"I heard that yesterday a woman slammed her head at the gate of the criminal department to seek justice, but fortunately, several medical officers were here that day and rescued the person. I checked the case of that woman, a native of Beijing, who had a zongzi shop at home, and someone who ate her zongzi was poisoned, and the government of Beijing convicted her family of manslaughter, sentenced her husband to exile, and paid the deceased some money. Master Su read the case file sent by the capital and felt that there was something wrong with the case, so let's go over and ask today. β
