My wife is number one in the world

Touching the stubble on his chin, Liu Mingzhi narrowed his eyes: "Could it be a carrier pigeon? Pigeon meat, pigeon meat! Liu Si!"

Liu Si appeared from nowhere, and suddenly appeared in the pavilion: "Young Master, what are your orders?"

"Put the roof...forget it, it's all right, you can go back first."

Liu Si didn't ask any more questions, and disappeared into the gazebo again. Liu Mingzhi looked at the pigeons on the roof and licked his dry lips: "It seems that I can't eat anything because I'm too thin. Maybe I'll raise them for two days. There will be more meat."

"My lord, the officials are here." Xiao Wu stopped the carriage and called out.

"Well, so fast?" Liu Mingzhi got out of the carriage and looked at the majestic buildings in front of him. Although he had never been to the imperial city, the six departments were built on the basis of the imperial city, so naturally he couldn't lose face of the imperial city.

Among the six ministries, the Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of War, and the Ministry of Household Affairs are more powerful than the other three. Although the six ministries have the same official positions, no distinction is made between high and low officials, but a discerning eye can tell which of the six ministries is the most prestigious.

Officials are in charge of promotion, appointment and dismissal of officials, and records are kept in files. From the princes and ministers to the common people, the officials all have their records, especially civil and military officials. The official censor only had the duty to hear and hear about things, but the official department was different. The position of Kao Gongsi was either big or small, but for officials, it was a knife hanging over their heads.

The Ministry of Households is in charge of the world's finances. Gold, silver, treasures, food and clothing are all under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Households. As long as the guy doesn't have the emperor's imperial decree, if the Minister of the Household Department says that he has no money, officials may not even receive their salaries.Although civil and military officials all have their own property, and they didn't point out that a little salary can play a big role, but the right to speak on major matters is the most important. You need money for everything. Without money, you have great power. The ability is also useless.

The Minister of the Ministry of War is in charge of the soldiers and horses in the world. Although he has no right to mobilize without authorization, as long as there is no war and a new commander is appointed, all soldiers and horses in the world must obey the arrangements of the Ministry of War. If there is no trouble, if the Ministry of War trips up and the reinforcements are delayed, it will be the end of the head.

As for the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Industry, and the Ministry of Punishment, the powers are not so prominent in comparison. The Ministry of Punishment is restrained by Dali Temple, the Ministry of Industry is restrained by general supervisors, and the Ministry of Rites is restrained by Honglu Temple.

The Ministry of Punishment can hear cases, the Dali Temple can conduct joint trials among the three divisions, the Ministry of Industry is in charge of equipment and tools, and the general supervisor can also make equipment and tools. The Ministry of Rites is in charge of various interests, and Honglu Temple handles external affairs.

In comparison, the Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of Households, and the Ministry of War are the most powerful departments among the six departments.

Holding the imperial decree in both hands, Liu Mingzhi walked towards the government office of the Ministry of Officials.

Chapter 279

Chapter 279

Before Liu Mingzhi, who was holding the imperial decree, entered the steps of the official office, he was blocked by two guards with spears. One of the older guards stared at Liu Mingzhi coldly: "The official office is a place of office. No one else is allowed to enter."

Thinking of the housekeeper Fu Shan's advice to him when he went out, Liu Mingzhi didn't want to force his way in. As expected of the yamen, one of the six departments, the guards are really strict.

Liu Mingzhi sighed silently, it was only the guards of the sixth department who were so arrogant, wouldn't the rumor about the seventh-rank official in front of the prime minister's gate be even worse.

Holding the imperial decree in both hands, Liu Mingzhi looked at the older guard indifferently, neither timid nor arrogant: "I am a scholar from the south of the Yangtze River, Liu Mingzhi, who was bestowed a title by His Majesty, and I came here to report to the Ministry of Officials for registration. Brother, let me know on your behalf, here is the proof." After Liu Mingzhi finished speaking, he handed the imperial decree in front of the guard.

The guard stared intently at the imperial decree on the incense sandalwood pillar in Young Master Liu's hand: "My lord, wait a moment, and the younger one will inform you right away."

"It's work."

The older guard whispered a few words in another guard's ear before walking into the official office. The other guard was still staring at Liu Mingzhi closely, as if he was some kind of thieves, for fear that he would do something bad.

Liu Mingzhi couldn't help looking at his clothes, where did he look like a villain?The guard was probably too vigilant, but Liu Mingzhi also had some opinions on the duty of the guard, and looked at the building of the official office with his hands behind his back.

Anyway, people walk to high places, water flows to low places, Liu Mingzhi can't help but feel a little hot when looking at the magnificent office in front of him, this is the land of power that men yearn for.

A moment later, a middle-aged man in his 30s wearing a light green official robe walked out of the official office in front of the elderly guards.

The middle-aged man in a light green official robe glanced arrogantly at Liu Mingzhi: "Is this the Lord Liu who came to report for registration?"

"Exactly, I don't know how to address this lord?" Although Liu Mingzhi was a little displeased with this official's attitude, he still adhered to the principle that no one offends me, and I will not offend others. If you are arrogant, I will just pretend not to see it, but don't you I think I bow to you, even though you are a serving official, my young master still has a title, and no one is inferior to the other when it comes to status.

If it is really about status, Liu Mingzhi's title is several times higher than that of the official in front of him, but a Beijing official, I don't know how many lords and lords in the capital have met. The Marquis also grabbed a lot of it, obviously Liu Mingzhi's status as a mere baron did not make him take it seriously.

"The head of the Ministry of Officials, Ding Li under the jurisdiction of Ji Xun."

"My lord has met Mr. Ding. I wonder if I can be naturalized for my lord now? My lord still has other things to do, so it won't take too much time."

"Do you have documents?"

Liu Mingzhi raised the imperial decree with his right hand: "Here."

Ding Li was slightly taken aback when he saw the imperial decree in Liu Mingzhi's hand. Other titles were drafted by the official department and then reported to the Prime Minister for trial, and then handed over to the emperor for decision. The official department issued a document only after the emperor nodded. There are things that the emperor personally decrees to confer titles, so it does not conform to the custom.

However, there were no exceptions. Officials and emperors who had worked hard and made great achievements would personally decree to confer titles, but Liu Mingzhi was clearly wearing Confucian clothes, not official robes to report, so he did not look like a person who worked hard and made great achievements.

Liu Mingzhi?Ding Li narrowed his eyes. Could it be that Liu Bold who dared to resist the order could not succeed? After carefully examining Liu Mingzhi for a few times, Ding Liming came to his senses. Judging by his age, he really dared to be the rumored Liu Bold, but he was not the Prince's companion. ?How could he be knighted?

Ding Li, as a sixth-rank official in charge of the Ministry of Officials, is naturally not qualified to occupy the position of the Golden Luan Hall. Naturally, he does not know the golden words made by the emperor at the beginning, and those who relieved the generals from drinking horses were promoted to ranks.

But Liu Mingzhi has no official position, so naturally he can only be knighted.

"Master Liu, please."

"Thank you." Liu Mingzhi was not polite, and walked into the official office together with Ding Li. He just wanted to finish his work early and go back early. Ding Li's attitude made Young Master Liu angry.

It was only when Liu Mingzhi walked into the office of the official department that the imposing official department outside was just the tip of the iceberg, and the inside was even more refreshing and dizzying.

As expected of the capital, you are good enough.

"Grandpa Liu, please sit down. After the official registers you, there will naturally be someone to measure your clothes for you, and the gold seal will be made immediately. Please, Lord Liu, let the official review the imperial decree."

Liu Mingzhi handed the imperial decree to Ding Li indifferently, and sat aside to wait.

Director Ding sat on the chair and began to retouch his pen. After everything was ready, he opened the imperial edict carefully. When he saw the content of the imperial edict, Director Ding was taken aback. This imperial edict is too childish.

I have been an official for ten years, and I have never seen such an imperial decree. I have never heard or seen such an imperial decree that such an important matter as a noble mansion can be settled in a few words.

It can't be fake, right?Director Ding glanced suspiciously at Liu Mingzhi who was sitting there, seeing that his fearless appearance was not fake.

After re-examining the imperial decree, Director Ding narrowed his eyes, and quietly rolled up the imperial decree: "Master Liu, wait a moment, I will come as soon as I go."

Liu Mingzhi didn't doubt that other people thought Mr. Ding needed to prepare something: "Master Ding, please go ahead."

A moment later, Director Ding walked into the room with a gloomy expression, followed by four guards holding sticks. When Liu Mingzhi was in a daze, Director Ding pointed at Liu Mingzhi: "Detain this madman who dared to forge the imperial decree."

Liu Mingzhi stood up from the chair suddenly, and glared at Mr. Ding: "Master Ding, what do you mean?"

Director Ding sneered: "What do you mean? You will know later, you are so daring, you dare to cheat to the official office."

"You fart, when did this young master cheat? You don't want to spout blood."

Director Ding waved his hand: "Press it up."

Looking at the four guards surrounding him, First Young Master Liu stared fiercely at Director Ding: "My surname is Ding, I have no grievances with you, yet you dare to bully me. I have tolerated you for a long time."

Touching the Golden Dragon Emperor in his arms, Liu Mingzhi felt as if he had been given a shot of courage, and quickly skipped over a few yamen servants and kicked Director Ding directly.

Although Liu Mingzhi doesn't know how to move, but he has a fourth-grade zhenqi in his body, how can a chief Ding and a weak official be able to resist, he was caught off guard by Liu Mingzhi kicked back a few steps, and sat down staggeringly. On the ground, the official hat rolled aside.

"You...do you want...to rebel?" Director Ding looked at Liu Mingzhi in fear, his eyes were about to burst.

Several guards also captured First Young Master Liu after a brief moment of stupefaction. Liu Mingzhi struggled twice and looked at Director Ding fiercely: "Bah, I've been annoyed at seeing you for a long time, and you look so arrogant. slandering my lord for forging imperial edicts and other crimes, what kind of hatred and resentment do you want to put me to death? If you want to kill me, it will be light to give you a kick!"

Director Ding stood up struggling and pointed at Liu Mingzhi with trembling fingers: "Bold maniac, the content of the imperial decree not only does not conform to the custom, but also does not have His Majesty's Dragon Seal, how dare you argue."
