Clam Pearl

Chapter 103

There was a commotion for a while, and the voice became lower and lower. Someone looked up and suddenly realized that His Majesty was angry.So they all winked at each other and calmed down, and knelt down one by one to apologize.

If you are angry today, you don't like to talk to your ministers.This is his consistent attitude. Generally, when he gets angry, he drinks tea, reads the memorial, and you make troubles as you please.If you are interested, I will accompany you for a day!It's all right, so let's make trouble here.When you want to leave, it's up to you whether you want to leave or not, even if you want to stand dead, you have to wait for me to finish handling these matters!

Gu Zhao used to listen to Sun Xi talking about these things in court, but now that he read the first chapter, he immediately felt something new, so he smiled and raised his head to look around. He saw that everyone was kneeling, but he didn't.Why!

The ministers pleaded guilty again and again, from the inside to the outside of the hall, they knelt on the ground in unison, leaving Gu Zhao holding Yugui very openly, looking around with his head out of his head, the more he looked the happier he was!Gu Yan kept looking at Gu Zhao coughing, the coughing became louder, but Gu Zhao just didn't look at him.It's not that he made Ah Run angry...

I don't know how long it took, Gu Lao Qi felt a little uncomfortable, so he moved his left and right legs together a few times, tightened his hips, looked at his elder brother, sighed, raised Yu Gui and suddenly said with a loud voice: "Qi Your Majesty, the minister is guilty and has something to say!"

His voice startled many people.Then Jinshang actually talked to him?This startled a lot of people again.

I just weighed the ink today, and when I was in a daze, the ink stained a memorial.Feeling helpless today, he raised his head and asked, "Gu Zhao."

"The minister is here."

"What do you have to say?"

Gu Zhao showed shyness on his face, looked around, and replied a little embarrassed: "Return to your majesty, I don't have many courts, I have little experience, and I haven't prepared in time. What I ate this morning is porridge. I used a bird's nest to remove the fire..."

The corners of Tian Chengdi's eyes twitched, and Sun Xi sniffed expressionlessly.

Gu Zhao continued with a pure and innocent face: "Your Majesty, I'm nervous now... I need to go out... (How do you describe that? Go to the toilet, take off your clothes?) For a while..."

Before he finished speaking, he revealed a disgusted face and waved his hands: "Take him out!"

Gu Yan was so worried that he hated himself for not teaching his younger brother the rules of going to court, but now it's all right, he'll make fun of people when he goes out.

Just as the conversation was finished today, a young eunuch came from the other side and hurriedly took Gu Zhao out.Seeing Gu Zhao going out today, he also put down his pen, coughed a few times, turned around and went to the back, and today also needs convenience.

Gu Zhao came out of the main hall and was taken to the back room. After a long journey, he went through a small door, entered a room, and entered a secret passage. In a blink of an eye, he came to a room. It was the place where the emperor rested. Now when he came in, he could see Ah Run when he raised his eyes.

Gu Zhao burst into laughter: "Yo, you can't hold back? You're coming down."

Ah Run smiled, pointed to the back and said, "Hurry up, I'll ask them to prepare a cup of ginseng tea for you to moisturize for now, and eat two pieces of dim sum to suppress your hunger."

Gu Zhao nodded, dropped Yugui conveniently, walked quickly to the back with his robe in hand, opened the double-layer toilet lid, and had a good time.After he finished urinating, he ran to him and sat on the Luohan bed outside, shook his boots, picked up the ginseng tea and drank it in one go, and said after drinking: "My feet hurt from standing, so I can't say I'm going to court, I really suffered .”

Ah Run sighed, stretched out his hand to grab his leg, pinched his foot with his hand, and complained as he squeezed: "I said, if Qian Dingsi is not good at fishing, you will listen if you don't. I told you to wait for three to five years, you No waiting. But look, once you lose your temper, everyone will be offended now!"

Gu Zhao sneered, grabbed a piece of snack and stuffed it into his mouth: "I'm afraid they... Shit! I made it out of mud... Bah... Non (water)...Hurry up..." Ah Run hurriedly poured water over it.

After Gu Zhao finished drinking, he flushed down the snacks in his throat, beat his chest a few times and said, "You pinched my feet, and poured water for me, it stinks to death!"

Ah Run smiled, and didn't dislike him, and continued to massage while comforting: "Get down, I'll loosen it up for you, loosen it up."

Gu Zhao immediately got down on the ground, and Ah Run lifted up his yellow robe and rode on his buttocks, stroking the two pieces of flesh on his waist with both hands, massaging him, and said as he touched, "You will go later, don't carry it on your shoulders." , it’s not good to be outraged.”

Gu Zhao raised his head and said, "I'm afraid of them! Bah, I won't take it if I try to go home and relax. After a while, you see me pinching them. Their fighting power is not enough!"

Ah Run had no choice but to use some strength in his hands. Gu Zhaoyi raised his head: "Uh...lighter...uh, right there..."

Sun Xi was sweating when he heard it outside, these two, the timing is wrong at this time...

The ministers knelt upwards, their knees ached unbearably.There are also veterans who don't care, that is, Gu Yan and his group, they all sat down on the ground and gossiped.Gu Yan rested his chin to think about things. There was someone on the other side who had a good relationship with Gu Yan. Because His Majesty didn't shout, he could only crawl over and said, "My lord, your precious brother is really spoiled!"

Gu Yan nodded vigorously and said: "That's right, you have to punish him well when you go back. At the very least, you have to punish him for writing ten big characters!"

Immediately, there was amazement around him, and someone blurted out, "That's it?"

Gu Yan stared: "How do you treat him? Can't you kill him? My brother is still young and ignorant, and my father left early. If I want to bully him, my brother will not be able to live. The old man feels distressed in ten large characters, and finally It’s good that Long Live Lord will withdraw for him later, so that I can lead him home. It’s not rare for us to be an official!”

What's the point of telling a fool?Really full and redundant.For a moment, many people turned their heads to stare at Zuo Shi and Zhang Tu. They were full and full, so what are they doing to provoke his family?Can you play the art of power with a fool?People don't understand at all, aren't you blind for nothing?are you crazy!Everyone who was harmed didn't have to go back, and they crawled all over the ground to accompany them to suffer.

Zuo Shi Zhangtu was also very depressed, so he had to go to see Dingying alone, and secretly angered his mentor Hu Ji.What is it called?Comparing poems and essays with Xiong Xiazi, I am really full.

The ministers were inexplicably vented, at this moment, the sun was shining brightly, it was three quarters past the hour, and half a day had passed since the morning meal.Therefore, some people who had prepared rations raised their sleeves, took a few mouthfuls of dry rations, and beat their chests.

I don't know how long it took, but Gu Zhao staggered into the main hall, and once he entered, he looked around with a smile on his face, and soon saw his brother, ran over and sat down on the ground: "Brother!"

Gu Yan sighed, stretched out his hand and gave him a brain bang: "Just mess around!"

Gu Zhao was very aggrieved, covering his head and said: "Why am I messing around? I didn't mess around, it was the two of them who punished me!" After Gu Zhao finished a chapter, he pointed at Zuo Shi unceremoniously, and Zhang Tu said: " Just the two of them, I'm not familiar with them, and I don't know what's wrong, but they always target me in everything they do!"

All of a sudden, the people in this hall were embarrassed.So fucking stupid!Everyone is not playing this way of boxing, it is against the rules!Even if you stabbed a knife behind your back, you can't say it openly?Does Lao Gu's family have any brains?

Zuo Shi and Master Zhang Tu blushed in embarrassment. They wanted to explain, but they couldn't.Arguing with a fool, I really lose my identity.So he could only stare, expressing his innocence.

Gu Yan snorted, and also stared over, unceremoniously stared over!So, all the adults in the Ministry of War glared at him!They glared, and the Xiahou family and the Hou family of the Liuxing family of the emperor had to stare together!

Is this going to war?Master Zuo was timid, and suddenly remembered that in the previous dynasty, because of the money from the Ministry of War, Gu Yan once knocked out the front teeth of an adult, but this person hadn't beaten anyone for many years.

Everyone was thinking wildly, a whip was sounded in the hall, and immediately, the ministers returned to their respective positions.

Gu Zhao was still standing, while everyone below was kneeling.Today he came out from behind, sat down and looked around to see if they were no longer making trouble, and said, "Why are they not making trouble now?"

The following all knelt down and worshiped: "I dare not wait!"

Gu Zhao hesitated for a moment, and slowly knelt down. After the ministers dared not dare, he answered in a very clear voice: "No matter what the ministers are, they are the ones making trouble."

"Hey..." I don't know who laughed out loud.

Emperor Tianshou had no choice but to stretch out his hand and said, "Get up, come and move seats for the elders. It's early today, why don't we start this lawsuit."

Not long after, some seats were moved up from below, and the veterans with status of the two dynasties sat down together, feeling a little more at ease.

"Zuo Shi, Zhang Tu... Gu Zhao!"

"The minister is here."

Looking at the three of them today, he said: "Since the matter is caused by the three of you in the yamen, and it is all official business, let's talk about it."

"Minister Zunzhi!" After the three replied, they looked at each other.Gu Zhao waved his hand generously: "You are the plaintiffs, you speak first, and I will listen."

Zuo Shi is eloquent, so Zhang Tu let him go first.

Therefore, Lord Zuo did his part and said, "Your Majesty... I have never allocated funds from the Ministry of Accounts, and I always speak on paper. The application for funds will be signed by the ministers and reported to the account. After the Ministry of Accounts reviews, the papers will be issued, and there will be an urgent line up according to the severity of the incident." , so that we can deal with them one by one." Speaking of this, Zuo Shi looked at Gu Zhao, and Gu Zhao blinked innocently, what are you looking at me for?

Zuo Shi sighed and continued: "This rule has been the same in all dynasties and years! At the beginning of the year, His Majesty ordered someone to supervise Qian Ding Siqi, and the affairs of the yamen were listed in the household department, ranking 37th in the first class. That is the first class Since it is the most important thing, the ministers dare not neglect, but they have to according to the position, the transfer of Ding Weiyin will use seven or eight of the household department's head this year, so the household department's deposit account is a bit stretched. The household department is not now Your Majesty is well aware of the affluence... It is not easy to squeeze out the money in June.

But I didn't want to. Yesterday, people took the money to move to the Ding Division.Mr. Gu, however, kept his mouth shut and told the officials to go back... My minister, what should I do, I hope His Majesty will judge! "

After Zuo Shi finished speaking, Master Zhang Tu took a step forward with Yugui in his arms and said, "Your Majesty, the Ministry of Officials has sent people, and there are also regulations. Since this spring, there have been more Qianding Division Yamen. The minister and his subordinates have passed the official assessment files over the years. Find out, check and select one by one. The matter of relocation is a long-term plan for me, and I dare not send people at will, so I choose according to the rules, five selections, two assessments, all of which have to be passed one by one before the personnel can be gathered tidy.

Unexpectedly, yesterday, when Mr. Feng Zhi was photographed to see off the officials, Qian Dingsi didn't even open the gate of the yamen, and only sent a small official to stand at the door, and sent him back without seeing anyone.I don't understand, what is wrong with the Ministry of Officials, that Mr. Gu treated him like this. "

After the two adults finished speaking, Gu Zhao still smiled and didn't care. After listening to it today, his face was expressionless, and he only asked Gu Zhao: "Is there such a thing?"

Gu Zhaojugui replied, "Yes!"

Jinshang asked, "Do you have an explanation?"

Gu Zhao shook his head: "Returning to the Holy Lord, if you only mention yesterday... what happened yesterday, it's like this, I have nothing to say!"

Today is strange: "Oh? What happened yesterday? Could it be that there was something before yesterday?"

Gu Zhao nodded: "Your Majesty's sage shines on the earth like the bright sun and moon. There is no corner of the world that can escape your attention. Your Majesty, you are aware of the details, and you can tell that you have grievances. There are many things before yesterday, but what do you want to listen to?" One case?"

Imago sneered: "A lot? Interesting, let's start with the official affairs!"

Gu Zhao nodded, coughed vigorously, and said, "Your Majesty, Mr. Zhang is right. Whether it's selection or assessment, there are rules. Even though I don't listen to them in the official department, I know the rules. Therefore, It doesn't matter if Mr. Zhang doesn't send a doorman, or the minister buys rice and sells vegetables at home, or makes steamed buns for the servant... It doesn't matter if the minister cleans the courtyard by himself, he has to obey the rules, right?

But it has been six months since Qian Dingsi needed to listen to it, and there is no one, and the minister will not complain. "Speaking of this, Gu Zhao suddenly turned around and asked Zuo Shi: "However, please trouble Mr. Zhang, but Gu Zhao has something to ask. "

Mr. Zhang looked at Jinshang and nodded his head, so Zhang Tu said, "Mr. Gu, please ask."

Gu Zhao nodded: "It's been six months since you moved to the Dingsi Yamen, did Gu Zhao send someone to your official department to ask for someone?"

Master Zhang shook his head: "Nothing!"

Gu Zhao smiled: "That's it. I have always been the most disciplined. If you don't believe me, you can ask those princes. They are all real people. We have a lot of contacts on weekdays. They all know me, right? ! Definitely my lord!"

Song Guogong Dingying's face turned red, and he flicked his sleeves in embarrassment: "Nonsense! In front of the lord, don't be wild!"

Gu Zhao said with a smile: "Madness? Master Ding, you always talk about seniority and I will call you elder brother! I said, elder brother, you are not benevolent. If you are dismissed from office, your nephew will write wild letters with a group of scholars." Me, I went to your door early, and my front teeth were blown away by him!"

Ding Ying has never been so embarrassing in his life, he wanted to suppress the small one and take the big one!Unexpectedly, this small one is just a lump of feces wrapped in a piece of soft brocade. It didn't bounce when pressed, but it really splashed a bad smell.You can't argue with him, it's too bad to argue with Zhichangzi.

Gu Zhao didn't give Yingying a chance to argue, he turned around and said, "Your Majesty, the Ministry of Officials sent someone to see off the officials yesterday, but since the officials arrived at the gate of the minister's yamen and wanted to record them, the people have arrived, but the minister But I don’t want it anymore! Since the minister is the chief of the Qianding Department, who to use and who not to use, but it is also the minister’s decision. The official department chooses which one is the official’s rule, and the minister can’t control the official’s rule. Since they come It's too late, just go back to your home and eat old rice, my boss won't accept it, this is also our rule!"

Zhang Shi's face turned pale, and he flicked his sleeves and scolded: "Nonsense, really nonsense, when did this rule come into being, why didn't I know?"

Gu Zhao smiled: "You are the chief of the Ministry of Officials, and I, the Secretary, shit and fart, and I still have to beep with you!"

Sun Xi yelled from above: "Doo! Disrespectful nonsense!"

Gu Zhao stuck out his tongue, and without waiting for the ministers to join him, he immediately knelt down and bowed a few times, slapped himself lightly from left to right, and said loudly, "I'm guilty! I'm messing around! Your Majesty, don't take offense, I'm a fool." , It's a pity that his parents gave him such a beautiful face and looked good, why did he act so unbearably?

Helpless, Imakami waved his hand: "Get up and continue talking."

Gu Zhao immediately stood up, looked at Mr. Zhang and laughed a few times: "I said, Mr. Zhang! You are getting old and old! I can't remember anything.

At the beginning of the year, when His Majesty said that he would move to the Ding Division, there were many officials sent for election, but unfortunately not many were willing to be the chief officer.For nothing else, all the adults know that the matter of relocation, whether it is good or bad, is a matter of leaving a bad name for thousands of years and leaving people's flesh and blood.No one likes to do such things, so Qian Dingsi was promoted from the fifth rank Yamen to the third rank.Are you right? "

Zhang Tu's expression was distressed, that's what it was, being an official is all about fame, who doesn't want to be famous forever.Qian Dingsi no one went, why ask him?This is so boring.

Gu Zhao smiled and continued: "Gu Zhao is not talented, and he hasn't studied for a few years, but he knows a simple truth. Your majesty gives you wealth and honor, and your money is rewarded by you. The reward of eating the king! The reward of being loyal to the king." matter! Even if your Majesty asks the minister to bite anyone, the minister will never say anything else.

Isn't it just Qian Dingsi, so what if he has a bad reputation for thousands of years?That's it, what's the matter!The minister will share the worries for my master!But... it's a pity that taking advantage of the loyalty and patriotism..." Gu Zhao wiped away the tears that didn't exist sadly, and rolled his eyes upwards. Is he worthy of being loyal to the monarch and patriotism?

Gu Zhao didn't care about this, and continued after the performance: "Who would have thought that as soon as I took the position, the ministers would suddenly not want to, don't you want to? What did you do so early? Roll up your sleeves earlier! But you just keep silent, I just don’t want to make such a fuss! Now that I’m here, you all think that we haven’t studied for a few years, so it’s hard to be a big job, and we shouldn’t sit in the chair of the third rank.

Therefore, I have been repeatedly asked to lower the rank of my senior secretary.My lords, we can't do this as human beings, this trick is very boring, Gu is not talented, he hasn't read many books, and he doesn't know a few words!

But...the pig butchers on the street wouldn't act like this, would they?what is this?There is no one to plow the thin field, let's fight together after plowing!Since I can't plow, no one can plow!I bother!I really look down on it!Thanks to my lord's sage, the radiance is as bright as the sun and the moon..."

"Gu Zhao!" Helpless today, he interrupted Gu Zhao and ordered him to speak properly.

Gu Zhao nodded, knelt down to plead guilty again, slapped his lips left and right, and continued to reply: "Your Majesty, now my dynasty is stable, the world is big, there are many people, and there are many cooking pots. In a land as big as the five counties, no one can Farming, no one lives there, it’s a pity to let it go. Therefore, the lower official recommended himself, and he was willing to relieve the king’s worries. This infamy, Gu Zhao now recognizes it!”

Gu Zhao spoke faster and faster: "Because this matter is related to the continuation of generations of Liang Liang and the people's livelihood, so the lower officials also mentioned it in the notebook. Qian Dingsi is a special office, so it is natural to handle special matters. Therefore, the rules of the new yamen must be done in accordance with the new method. At that time, the minister wrote the book, and the first one was that the yamen rules of the Qianding Division were set by themselves. The old officers and your majesty were also allowed to do so, why is it not counted now? "

As soon as Gu Zhao's words fell, the commotion below was like boiling water, and discussions started again.

He was stunned when he heard the words today, as if thinking of something, he hurriedly asked Sun Xi to fetch the old notebook.

No, Gu Zhao handed in the copy that day, and it was also approved by the above. The first article in the book said that the move to the Ding Division is of great importance, and all regulations need to be dealt with specially. Self-assessment to stay.The second application is that the Chief Secretary Qian Ding will not stand up because he needs to go down to observe the people's situation at any time... At the beginning, he discussed it with everyone seriously today, and it was approved. Who would have thought that he would wait here now? It's on.

Is this a trap?Many people secretly went to see Gu Yan, but unexpectedly, Gu Yan also looked puzzled and surprised.That's right, the group of people in his family dance with their fists in everything they do, but they don't use their brains.That……?That being said, it makes sense.You sent someone from the Ministry of Officials, and I moved to Ding Si to see that the person is unqualified. I don't want you, and it makes sense.

Zhang Tu's face turned pale, and he said angrily, "I've never heard of it. That yamen only has officials, so it's possible that you want to dominate the family!"

Gu Zhao waved his hands, stretched out his scissors hands with a smile, and said, "Who said that, you two! I and Fu Ji are two people. By the way, when it comes to this, Gu Zhao still wants to ask Mr. Zuo Shi. I said Mr. Zuo, If you deduct my Qian Ding Sihua, Gu Zhao pays for the flour and food and forget it, but you deduct half a year’s salary as an official, is that unreasonable? Now Fu Lang’s family’s mother gave birth to a baby, and her grandmother is seriously ill. The money you gave, doesn’t make sense, doesn’t it? Is it possible that the Ministry of Households was opened by your family? You can give it to whoever you want, and if you provoke you, you will starve to death? Is this unrighteous?”

Zuo Shi blushed, and said angrily: "The household department is tight on money, so it's natural for the key to show up. Your department has many rules, but it doesn't matter who the household department allocates the money to first." He said After finishing speaking, he said with a single stroke: "Your Majesty, I have been wronged. The account books of the household department and the payment process are all in the records. I am not afraid of checking. I only hope that Your Majesty can give Chen a clean slate, and prevent others from pouring sewage. I can't defend myself!"

Zuo Shi knelt down, and the chief officials of the household department also knelt down.

He has a headache today, and stroked his forehead. He can't offend the Ministry of Household Affairs. There is no way to talk about it, so he looked at Gu Zhao, meaning, you can tell...

Gu Zhao smiled, reached out and took out a very long list from his sleeve, and waved it in the air a few times like silk.Roll it up, roll it up, and after summing it up, he said: "Your Majesty, I have something to say."

Emperor Tian Cheng waved his hand and said, "Speak!"

Gu Zhao raised the list and began to read it in full view: "In the fourth year of Tiancheng, the agricultural tax of the [-] counties in Pingzhou: [-] guan..."

Zhuang Chengxiu has been pretending to be deaf and dumb today, it's none of his business whether Dingying's school or Guardian Star's school.He enjoyed watching the excitement at first, but after hearing it, he began to like Gu Zhao in his heart. The one who dared to slap the officials in full view was Jianguo.

Not only did he fight, but the fight was still hot.Gu Zhao's move will undoubtedly lead Qian Dingsi out of the officialdom rules, and he will be the only one in the future.Although Qian Dingsi's official, whether he does it or not, is covered in feces and urine, but this thing is so fucking beautiful.This is called killing the master with random punches, right?

Now when he looked at this noble-born guy with a young face, Zhuang Chengxiu suddenly thought, isn't it right?His family shouldn't have such a talent.Okay, this guy is very thorough in everything he does. Listen to him read this account statement from the account department. Although it is only a clear account of the Pingzhou family, it is also a clear account allocated by the account department to various places this year.

If you calculate it this way, more than 100 officials in your household department will eat, sleep and fart in the Yamen every day.You said that there is no money, and now the expenditures used by the various yamen are only decimals, and the Guangpingzhou family’s storage is enough to pay the bills of the various yamen, so now there are so many extra papers and so many things that have not been done?According to the meaning of taking care of adults, this is blatant dereliction of duty.

Thinking of this, Zhuang Chengxiu suddenly felt that something was wrong!The one above seems to be very cooperative today, and he is quite a partner with this one!
