There are not many people who can be regarded as staff by Zhang Tingyu.

This kind of staff culture has existed since ancient times, and the emperor knows about it, but he doesn't know how to do it, and he has never been in that position.

The person who died this time had an ordinary background, his surname was Liu and his name was Zisi, he was from Jiangnan, and he was a Juren.Two years ago, I came to Tai'an to rush for the exam, but I failed the exam.Afterwards, he handed over the self-recommendation document to the prime minister.

The custom of self-recommendation documents has been passed down for many years, especially for those who are like prime ministers, countless students submit documents to the prime minister's office every year, hoping to be in the prime minister's eyes.

This Liu Zisi was one of them, and because of his proficiency in writing, he was favored by Zhang Tingyu, and entered the prime minister's mansion as a writer.

Usually responsible for helping to deal with things ordered by Zhang Tingyu.Like this kind of writer, the Xiangfu didn't say a lot, maybe there were seven or eight people.

To say that this Liu Zisi is also a talent, although he failed the ranking, but his writing ability is really good, and Zhang Tingyu valued him very much.

Usually, many documents are written by this Liu Zisi.It can be regarded as one of Zhang Tingyu's core group members.

As we all know, whether it is ancient or modern, people with excellent official document skills are deeply loved by leaders.

This Liu Zisi is such a person, he usually works in the prime minister's mansion, prepares for the exam by the way, and waits for the next imperial examination.

This is also a necessary process for many staff members.Once you pass the exam in the future, you will be the prime minister for sure.

Looking at Liu Zisi's reciting, it's quite ordinary and there's nothing suspicious about it.

The only doubt may be that Zhang Tingyu took him to a ghost banquet?

This doubt is also far-fetched, because there were still some people who accompanied Zhang Tingyu to the ghost banquet that night, and Liu Zisi was valued, so it was not particularly strange to get a place.

For many things, you still have to ask Zhang Tingyu to get results.

After closing the silk book, Yu Gan pondered twice and asked, "Minister, what kind of person do you think this Prime Minister is?"

Gongsun Yan said lightly, "I'm not familiar with it, I haven't been in touch with it. But I have heard about it. This person lives in luxury and corruption, and it is said that he is greedy for ink.

But he is extremely capable, and all political affairs can be perfectly resolved in his hands.And he is hard-working, and often goes to the front line to watch things.

Many people hated him, hated him for plundering people's fat and people's anointing.Many people also support him, because he has indeed done a lot of things that benefit the people. "

"It's a mixture of good and bad, these two extremes appearing in one person is a bit powerful." Yu Gan nodded, and then asked, "Then what is His Majesty's attitude towards him?"

"I don't know." Gongsun Yan shook her head, "I only know that Zhang Xiang, whom His Majesty relies on for many things, has won His Majesty's trust."

"That picture is so blatantly extravagant and corrupt, why didn't His Majesty say anything?" Yu Gan continued to ask.

Gongsun Yan said, "I only know that memorials to impeach Prime Minister Zhang are flying all over the place, but His Majesty has never expressed his position."

"Envy." Yu Gan expressed his true feelings, he was really envious.

At the root of the imperial city, at the feet of the emperor, such an extravagant and flamboyant style, but not toppled.This Zhang Xiang definitely has several brushes.

This kind of person who is difficult to distinguish between loyalty and evil is actually the most powerful, and it is difficult to see what he wants to do.

Gongsun Yan glanced at Yu Gan and said disdainfully, "Are you envious of his beautiful wife and concubine?"

Yu Gan was startled, and quickly waved his hands, "No, absolutely not. All I need is the Minister."

"Ok?"

"I mean, if we have a conflict with Zhang Xiang, who will His Majesty support?" Yu Gan quickly changed the subject and asked.

Gongsun Yan sneered, "I won't support you anyway."

"Understood." Yu Gan nodded, "I'll confess to Uncle Zhang later, and don't mess with him. I can't afford to mess with him."

"What are you going to do later?" Gongsun Yan asked with squinted eyes, "Or, do you think Zhang Xiangqian is responsible for the Gu in this staff member's body?"

Yu Gan shook his head, "I don't dare to speculate now. If I make a mistake and tarnish the name of Zhang Xiang, then I will be in trouble. I can only say that I will look at the specific situation later and investigate carefully."

"Where do you want to start?" Gongsun Yan continued to ask.

"Naturally, we should first go to the aide's residence to see if we can find anything useful, and then talk to Prime Minister Zhang. If nothing can be found, we can only ask someone to come over and thoroughly investigate the Prime Minister's residence.

The source of this Gu poison must be found out, Zhang Xiang will definitely understand. "

"Is it too late to check the residence of that staff member now?" Gongsun Yan asked.

"It's not too late." Yu Gan shook his head, "If I were Minister Zhang, I would protect the residence as soon as that person was arrested and wait for inspection.

Only by doing this will he reduce his suspicion. Zhang Xiang is so smart, he must understand such a simple truth. "

"Then what if nothing useful is found in that staff room?" Gongsun Yan continued to ask.

"Then he is clean, and the place where the Gu is not in the house." Yu Gan explained.

Gongsun Yan said softly, "Couldn't Mr. Zhang clean it up by himself?"

"Minister, you can't say that." Yu Gan quickly waved his hand, "We can't dirty Zhang Xiang. In my heart, Zhang Xiang is pure and pure.

Minister, if you say that again, I will have to stay away from you. "

Gongsun Yan has black lines all over her head.

Yu Gan continued, "Think about it, minister, if it's really Zhang Xiang who tricked his staff. How could he be so foolish as to be brought directly to the ghost banquet.

Isn't that courting death?Therefore, I am willing to believe in Zhang Xiang. With Zhang Xiang's wisdom, he will definitely not do such a stupid thing. "

Gongsun Yan was expressionless.She must understand such a simple truth.It's just that I can't get used to Yu Gan's face.

The typical one who has milk is a mother.

Fortunately, this kind of person is in Dali Temple. If he becomes an official, it will be a disaster for Daqi.

"Now the water is so muddy, and one after another the big bosses have been pulled down. Minister, we have to be careful. Don't fail to investigate the case and provoke a lot of enemies to Dali Temple. This is me I absolutely don't want to see it." Yu Gan finally said.

"Are you teaching me how to do things?" Gongsun Yan snorted coldly.

"Don't dare, dare not, it's all from the bottom of my heart." Yu Gan smiled dryly.

"Your Director Yu is in charge of the case, you have the final say." Gongsun Yan said lightly.

Yu Gan's eyelids twitched twice, he forgot to say anything, and finally had no choice but to shut up obediently.

Soon, the carriage came to the inner city.The prime minister's mansion is only one street away from Li Nianxiang's mansion.These empty, extremely spacious.

The huge Prime Minister's Mansion squatted in the bright place of the street like a giant.

The carriage stopped on the side, and Yu Gan looked up at the Prime Minister's mansion after getting out of the carriage.

What a shiny building! !

Different from the antique mansions of other ministers, this prime minister's mansion has one word, magnificent.

The wall is so high that you can't see the side at a glance, which is enough to see how big the prime minister's mansion occupies.The whole body of the outer wall is decorated with golden decoration.Only the wide gate is painted with scarlet.

The door is not a brass ring, but a gold ring.

The two pillars in front of the door are erected with a whole piece of golden nanmu.Two stone lions squatted outside the gate with gold beads in their mouths.

The entire mansion was empty without guards, Yu Gan nodded to Cui Caiyi, and the latter went forward to knock on the door.

Looking at the majestic Prime Minister's Mansion, Lu Xing couldn't help feeling, "I've heard that the Prime Minister's Mansion is like a palace in the world, but today it's really so."

"You still understand?" Yu Gan asked casually.

"I've heard about it a little bit." Lu Xing whispered, "I heard that in the Prime Minister's Mansion, the sandalwood is only used for stepping, the East China Sea golden juice is used for rinsing, the delicacies are eaten from all over the world, and the clothes are worn by top tailors. Celestial silk is woven one by one."

"You know so well, he is your father?" Yu Gan teased.

"Boss, you can't talk nonsense, it's always bad to be heard." Lu Xing smiled nervously.

Soon, Cui Caiyi who knocked on the door got a response, and an old man in his early sixties who looked like a housekeeper came out.

Only then did Yu Gan come forward and bowed, "Gongsun Yan, Minister of Ding Department of Dali Temple, and Yu Gan, Director of Huang Department of Shaoqing Department, came to visit Prime Minister Zhang, and they are conducting routine inquiries about the three staff members of your mansion."

The butler smiled, turned his body sideways, and said with a smile, "Sir, come in with the little old man, my master is in the side courtyard."

"Okay, thank you very much." Yu Gan did a good job of etiquette and showed great respect to the housekeeper.

The four of them walked into the mansion following the little old man.

The moment he stepped into the mansion, Yu Gan immediately felt like a bumpkin.

How can there be such an exquisite residence in the world?

Different from the vulgar golden color on the outside, the inside can be said to be extremely exquisite.Numerous exotic flowers and plants are blooming, and they have been meticulously built to fit the layout of the mansion.

The pavilions and pavilions are quite literati-style, and they look like exquisite places where scholars live.

Of course, the main thing is to pay attention to wood. When Yu Gan went to the wood workshop last time, he also knew some top-notch wood from Daqi.

The wood used in the whole building of this Xiangfu is called Xichuan Lingnan.As the name suggests, this wood is a specialty of Xichuan, a spiritual wood that will not rot for thousands of years.

The fragrance of wood can last for thousands of years, and smelling it has the effect of calming the mind and prolonging life.The price is extremely expensive, it can be said that it is equivalent to gold.

But in this Xiangfu, it can be seen everywhere.

Yu Gan had been to Prince Gong's Mansion before, and he thought He Shen's mansion was awesome enough, but comparing it now, it's nothing short of insignificant.

Yu Gan's whole body is numb, how much does this cost him?

In the Sanyuanfang where I live, it is estimated that the income of all staff for 20 years will not be enough to build this Xiangfu.

It's really awesome, I don't know how much money Zhang Tingyu has been greedy for these years, but he still stands in the court for many years after spending such an open and aboveboard.

Yu Gan decided that he must investigate the case obediently, and this relationship cannot be offended.

The housekeeper led the way for a long time, and there were seven or eight courtyards around. Yu Gan was dazzled by the surrounding courtyards of various styles.

Finally, the butler stopped in front of the so-called side courtyard.

It is said to be a side courtyard, but it is actually a large piece of land, which is full of plants, fruits and vegetables, and everything.

At the head of the field, there were two people, an old man in coarse linen, and a man in his early thirties who were also in linen, with more than a dozen maidservants standing beside them.

The old man's trouser legs were rolled up, and his hair was only passed through by simple wooden hairpins.

He was digging the vegetable field with a golden hoe in his hand.

The old man was a little fat, and he was the prime minister Zhang Tingyu that Gu Qingyuan introduced to Yu Gan during the Ghost Festival.

At this moment, the way he wields the hoe is skillful, and the position is exquisite. If you don't look at the material of the hoe, you really have the temperament of an old farmer.

It seems that this humble Zhang Xiang did a lot of hard work when he was a child.

To be honest, this is the first time Yu Gan has seen someone dig the ground with a gold hoe.

When this piece of Ting Yu came up, Yu Gan was taken aback.

As for the young man, he was just pretending, not at all.

The housekeeper said apologetically, "My lords, please wait a moment. My master doesn't like to be disturbed when he goes to the ground. How about you wait?"

"Well, it's okay, we'll just wait for Zhang Xiang, there's no rush." ​​Yu Gan nodded with a smile.

So, the four of them just stood here in such a daze, watching the contemporary prime minister working here.

After waiting for about two or three quarters of an hour, Zhang Tingyu straightened up, dropped the hoe casually, wiped the sweat from his forehead with the sleeve of his cloth clothes, and walked out with a vegetable basket.

"Master, these adults from Dali Temple have been waiting for a while." The butler went up to meet him and whispered.

Only then did Zhang Tingyu turn his gaze to Yu Gan's side, and casually threw the vegetable basket to the butler, with a warm smile on his face, "Wait a minute, I'll tidy up a bit.

Now this demeanor is not very good for meeting guests. "

Yu Gan bowed quickly and said, "Master Zhang please, I'll be fine if I wait a little longer."

Zhang Tingyu nodded, then the housekeeper waved lightly, and two of the dozen or so maidservants waiting over there walked over with their clothes in their hands.

Zhang Tingyu remained motionless, standing there with his hands spread out.The two maidservants helped him undress very familiarly, and then wiped his cheeks up and down with warm towels.

After wiping his body carefully, a servant girl helped him tidy up his hair, and finally put it together and tied it with a purple crown.

To help him shave his face, he didn't know what kind of special milk was used to smear his face.

Then they stretched out a white lining together and carefully put it on for him.Afterwards, they put on a total of three pieces one by one, all of which were extremely thin silkworm garments, and the outermost one was an extremely gorgeous purple garment.

Zhang Tingyu's temperament came out instantly after redressing. The unique temperament of a man who has been in a high position for many years is extremely conspicuous in the crowd.

At the same time, the scene on the other side directly shattered Yu Gan's extravagant view again.

It was the man who came out with Zhang Tingyu, his eyebrows looked like Zhang Tingyu, probably Zhang Tingyu's son.

He just stripped himself completely naked in broad daylight, and the remaining ten or so maidservants surrounded the crowd without revealing anything.

They gathered around and wiped the man's body at the same time.until it is wiped clean.

Then as soon as he helped him put his underwear on, the man said in a commanding tone, "I need to take a pee."

The movement of putting on clothes stopped immediately, and a maid squatted down holding a spittoon.The man released it unceremoniously, and a little bit of inaccuracy splashed on the maidservant.
