Civil servants of the Tang Dynasty

"If you have done something wrong, you must be punished, and if you have done something, you must be rewarded. This reward must not only be taken, but also cannot be taken less. This matter is up to me. But the other matter can only be left to everyone." Tang Cheng turned his head and looked outside the door The other Cao Si on the opposite side said, "Although I only have half of the manpower left, I can't let go of the official duties that should be done. Let alone those who don't have duties. We are all men. If you are a man, you can't be cowardly. If you are a man, you can't do it again." Let the other side see our jokes."

"did it"

"If you want to see our jokes, there is no way."

Perhaps there was too much commotion here, and some people in the opposite Cao's offices couldn't help but ran to the door to look here. While they were looking, they were afraid that Chen Liang hadn't left yet, so their movements seemed a bit awkward. Sneaky and wretched.

Seeing this appearance, Tang Cheng couldn't help laughing out loud first, and then a burst of high-spirited laughter came from Sitian Cao's office, which surprised all the Caos in the West Court, inexplicably...

……

Jin Yushi was eager to make contributions, and after taking away Lao Liang and others, he couldn't wait for a moment, and immediately started an interrogation in the east courtyard where the tolerances work.

The first explosive news that Tang Cheng heard after he went to the Yamen in the afternoon was that Chen Liang, who was a member of the Yamen, was taken away!It is said that almost everyone who was taken in in the morning identified him, and the sum of the money involved was almost [-] yuan.

"Twenty thousand guan, this guy's hand is really long enough." Dao Bi, who suppressed his excitement and told Tang Cheng the news, was full of dissatisfaction. We uphold the public spirit and are as clean as water, but we are such a bastard! Pooh, how shameless!".

"Chen Liang was taken!", Tang Cheng cheered up, "But other people are also implicated?".

"Why not? In just a short time at noon, more than a dozen people were taken in one after another. Don't worry, my lord, it's all belonged to someone else. The place Liang Delu and the others stayed in before, and now those old accounts of Chen Guzi and rotten sesame seeds have also been overturned." Come out." The Daobi gloated and smiled, "My lord, look at the opposite side again, do you see that they are still happy? It won’t work if you don’t bite. There is a priority for meritorious deeds and crimes, isn’t it?”.

While he was talking, the knife and pen suddenly looked outside the door and said: "Here it is, here it is again, this time I don't know who is going to be unlucky again."

Tang Cheng turned around to look, and saw Zhang Xiangwen and Zaofu Tolerance, carrying iron chains in their hands, enter Sicang Cao on the opposite side, and came out after a while carrying a knife and pen.

Seeing Tang Cheng here, Zhang Xiangwen grinned, Tang Cheng nodded, then raised his finger and pointed to the room behind him.

After Zhang Xiangwen nodded to show that he knew, he and another tolerance went to the east courtyard with the knife and pen.

"This tolerance is unexpected."

"It was newly transferred from the Yunxi county government, and it was officially on duty yesterday." Tang Zeng was about to ask about Feng Haizhou's case, but he saw two handymen coming in to carry the burden. Hubing and other things to eat, "what's going on here?".

"My lord, you left earlier at noon. I don't know. As soon as you left, the orders from the sons and grandchildren arrived later. Except for our Sitian Cao, no one in the entire West Court is allowed to leave the state office without authorization. Here , This is to bring food to them." After explaining, the sword pen pondered for a moment and then sighed: "I haven't seen it until now, we made Mr. Jun have such courage!".

Hearing this, Tang Cheng smiled and didn't say anything. According to his thinking, Sun Shijun is really barefoot and not afraid to wear shoes. This matter should either not be revealed, or it should be completely revealed. The bigger the better, it's because he can't face it, but the real uncomfortable thing is don't drive. After all, the people who are arrested now are under the control of the old horse. Sun Shijun is the one who wants to leave, but where is the old horse going?

"Did Sun Shijun get stimulated by what he told me in the morning?" Tang Cheng really didn't expect Sun Shijun to be so resolute, and he didn't hide it at all.

After thinking about it, Tang Cheng shook his head. Sun Shijun was able to sit in the current seat, and he certainly would not act like this just because of a few words from Lao Liang.

"Then why is he?" Tang Cheng pondered as he walked into his office.

For face?There must be a reason for this, but the share is definitely not large; for him Tang Cheng?There must be a reason for this, but it is definitely not the main reason; then why is it that he is more interested than Jin Yushi?

Jin Yushi!Thinking of this, Tang Cheng suddenly came to his senses. By the way, it was because of Jin Yushi. Anyway, this case could no longer be suppressed. For Sun Shijun who is about to leave now, it is better to make this matter as big as possible. , the bigger it is, the easier it is to attract attention, and the greater the contribution of Jin Yushi, the more resolute and decisive Sun Shijun's performance in it... This is a case in Jinzhou Prefecture, and there is a direct report Jin Yushi, who is in power, can still bypass him as the governor when he submits the paper?

I got it, Tang Cheng really got it, the reason why Sun Shijun was so resolute was because he was fighting for a chance to go up to heaven with the help of Jin Yushi's direct playing power.

Bad things turn into good things, since bad things are inevitable, then dig out the greatest possible benefits from this bad thing!This is what just happened this morning. Tang Cheng admired Sun Shijun's quick response, deep thought, and decisive action after making a decision.

Originally, when Tang Cheng went in the morning, he still wanted to use Sun Shijun to exert his residual heat, but now it seems that during this backhand, all he promoted was fully utilized by Sun Shijun.

Damn, fox, what an old fox!No wonder Ma Biejia couldn't beat Sun Shijun a few years ago, and finally lost in the battle for governor. In terms of mind and means, these two people are not at the same level at all.

Now it seems that his anti-digging action this time is like the tung oil business in Yangzhou that day. For him, Tang Cheng and Sun Shijun, maybe both of them are winners.It's just that if Sun Shijun can really succeed in this fight, his benefits will be far greater than Tang Cheng, the promoter.And in exchange for all of this, relying on scheming and means.

From being a user to being used, Tang Cheng pondered, reflected, and concluded carefully. Perhaps this is the last time he learned from Sun Shijun. He must learn as much as possible, otherwise he will lose more and more. It's big.

Zhao Huhu was Tang Cheng’s first teacher after he became a civil servant. He taught Tang Cheng a lot, and the things he taught Tang Cheng is still using and benefiting from, and will continue to use At this moment, Sun Shijun is Tang Cheng's second teacher. What he needs to learn is how to seize all available factors to seek the maximum benefit from bad things, how to turn bad things into good things, and how to make a decision once he has made a decision. The ability to act without hesitation.

Tang Cheng firmly believed that what he learned from Sun Shijun now would be useful in the future, just like what he learned from Zhao Huhu.It's just that one of the two teachers is active and the other is passive.

Useful learning means growth, and useful learning itself is growth!

While Tang Cheng was thinking about summarizing, Zhang Xiangwen walked in from outside the office, took the tea in front of Tang Cheng and poured it in one breath, then wiped the tea dripping from the corner of his mouth and asked, "Brother, what do you want from me? ".

It seems that Zhang Xiangwen is also very tired today, Tang Cheng filled the tea cup and handed it over, "How is it over there?".

"It's lively, it's really lively." Zhang Xiangwen took the teacup and drank it down in one breath, "Well, don't drink it! It's very lively over there now." At this point, Zhang Xiangwen looked back at the door and said in a low voice. Said: "Even Sun Shijun and Ma Biejia started arguing. Judging by their posture, if they didn't care about their status, these two people would have to fight, my mother! These two are both five-year-old Jinshi. Grade officer! I dare not even think about it, I opened my eyes, this time I really opened my eyes, this trip to Jinzhou is not a loss. Otherwise, I will never see such a scene in Yunxi for the rest of my life."

"Have a falling out?"

"It's more than falling out? It's like treating the other party like a bandit." Zhang Xiangwen beamed with joy, "After all, Mr. Sun is the boss of the yamen, and he used the power in his hand to crush the old horse to death. Brother, you don't look at the old horse like that." My face is blushing and my neck is thick but I can't say it, looking at it is... I can't say it."

"Why are you arguing?"

"When they started arresting other people from Cao Li, the two of them became dirty. The more people were arrested, the dirty became more obvious. When Sun Shijun ordered Chen Liang and Feng Xiyuan'er to be arrested," Zhang Xiangwen made a hand The posture of burning firecrackers, "the old horse couldn't help it anymore, and then quarreled."

"Oh!" Tang Cheng nodded, and lowered his voice, "Who else can Chen Liang confess?".

Because Zhang Xiangwen had just arrived, he didn't know the grievances between Tang Cheng and Ma Biejia, so he was a little at a loss when he heard the words, "What does big brother mean?".

Tang Cheng didn't speak, just tapped a drop of water from the tea pot, and slowly wrote the word "horse" on the desk.

"That's not true." Zhang Xiangwen glanced at Tang Cheng in surprise, "But it's hard to say, Jin Yushi is now interrogating him. His face was flushed and he looked vigorously."

Tang Cheng was a little disappointed to hear that Chen Liang hadn't confessed to come. He nodded and asked about Feng Haizhou's situation.

Because these were all arrested by Sitian Caoli, and they were the first to be arrested.Zhang Xiangwen pays the most attention to the people under the elder brother's hands, but he also knows something about it. Speaking of Feng Haizhou, he is only an accomplice at most. , After saving for so many years, I have collected more than 100 guan.But all in all, among those arrested today, his size is considered the lightest.

Hearing what Zhang Xiangwen said, Tang Cheng breathed a sigh of relief. If this was the case, then Feng Haizhou would still have room for protection, and he would be able to open his mouth in front of Shijun Sun.

Throughout the afternoon, there were very few people in the west courtyard who were able to think about doing official business. The air was filled with tension, and almost everyone's thoughts were on the east courtyard.

Slowly, fewer and fewer errands came, and in the end they never came again. To Tang Cheng's disappointment, it was already dusk when it was time to leave the office, but there was still no news news involved.

Tang Cheng did not leave after the yamen, but waited in the office until it was completely dark, and then Zhang Xiangwen trotted over, saying that the East Court had come to an end for the time being, and Sun Shijun had just come to an end. Go back to your office.

When Tang Cheng arrived quickly, he happened to meet Sun Shijun coming out of the office, and he seemed to be going back to his residence.

"Is there something wrong?" Sun Shijun turned around and went back to the room, "Come in and talk."

After this thrilling day, Sun Shijun was really tired. Tang Cheng didn't waste much time, and directly stated the purpose of coming here, asking Sun Shijun to help save Feng Haizhou. It should be dealt with, but don't lose it. got a job.

"His problem is not big." Sun Shijun, who was rubbing his forehead, gave Tang Cheng an approving look, "Well, it's a timely help. If you give him such a hand at this time, it's impossible for him to stop working for you in the future."

A smart person can understand his thoughts without saying much, and it is convenient to talk to a smart person. Tang Cheng smiled and asked about Chen Liang. To be precise, he asked why Chen Liang didn't Confess the old horse, "Is the horse so clean?".

Mr. Sun is cautious, as can be seen from the way he accepts gifts.Seeing Lao Ma's coquettish appearance at the literary conference, he is not such a person!If this is the case, there is only one explanation - the old horse is very clean, but Tang Cheng himself does not believe this explanation.

Hearing Tang Cheng's question, Sun Shijun smiled speechlessly, "Chen Liang won't confess, so don't worry about it."

"why?".

"Think about it from the perspective of the supervisory censor," Sun Shijun rubbed his forehead and said nothing more.

The task of supervising the censor?After Tang Cheng pondered for a moment, he suddenly said, "Your Excellency, are you referring to the power of execution?".

"Children can be taught," Sun Shijun nodded, "The supervisory censor only has the right to review matters, but not the right to judge. That is to say, although Jin Yushi can ask for a crime, he cannot convict him. Jinzhou Yamen has such a case." In the big case, the outcome of Chen Liang and others can only be decided by the Taoist government. This is the reason why Chen Liang will not confess to Ma Dongyang. He still fantasizes that the person behind Ma Dongyang can save his life. As long as he does not confess , Lao Liang and others are too low in status, know too little, and can't give anything if they want to confess."

"That person behind the old horse? Who?"

"A vixen who is old and never dies," Sun Shijun shook his head, "If it weren't for me, I would be the one who was going to leave, just for this old fox, and today I wouldn't completely tear myself apart with Ma Dongyang."

Tang Cheng became more and more curious about the old fox who made Sun Shijun afraid, and asked again.

"That person has been an official for many years, and you don't know if you tell me." Sun Shijun seemed really tired, so he stood up and walked towards the door, "Let's go."

Tang Cheng sent Shijun Sun to the side door. The hole he dug this time could not fit the horse into it, so he was still somewhat haunted.

Sun Shijun seemed to know what he was thinking, "Still thinking about Ma Dongyang?".

Tang Cheng was taken aback, and only then did he know the old horse's full name, "Yes."

"You ruined his last career, what else is he thinking about?" Sun Shijun smiled slightly while walking slowly, "Don't be too greedy in life."

Tang Cheng was puzzled by these words, "What does your lord mean by this?".

Sun Shijun turned his head and took a deep look at Tang Cheng, then continued to walk forward, and said in a low voice: "With his old fox father-in-law, in this chaotic time, Ma Dongyang is very hopeful to take over as the governor after I leave. of".

"But his age...".

"It's up to people," Sun Shijun continued: "The current Shannan East Road is out of chaos. At Ma Dongyang's level, it is by no means impossible to take advantage of the chaos? As long as he has a little political achievement in the country and goes to the Ministry of Officials for a "consolation", he can work for another five years, which means seven years. Seven years, do you know what this means to him?".

Sun Shijun showed that very Jiangnan smile again, but no matter how Tang Cheng looked at the smile, there was a strong sense of sarcasm in it, "It's just that after today's fraudulent case, this is no longer possible. Daobi It is his responsibility to take care of the officials, and when something like this happens, Jin Yushi will go up to it, and no one will try hard, and the official department will not even think about passing it." At this point, Sun Shijun stopped, "So, do you understand?"

"Yeah," Tang Cheng nodded.

"You won't understand. Before Ma Dongyang's age and his situation, Tang Cheng, you will never understand how much this matter has hit him." Sun Shijun shook his head: "So, you just You don't understand the magnitude of the danger you face."

"Um?".

"Although Ma Dongyang is hopeless to make progress, but he has more than enough protection for himself, he will continue to stay in this yamen." Sun Shijun looked up at the surrounding state yamen, "After this matter is over, it will be the end of the year, after the end of the year... The new envoy thinks it's time to arrive."

Sun Shijun's loneliness lasted for a short time, "In fact, I have been thinking about a problem these days, but I have never figured it out. Since Mr. Zheng is the way, Tang Cheng, why don't you go?".

Tang Cheng couldn't answer this question, "Parents don't want to stay away from their hometown."

Hearing this, Sun Shijun smiled, very Jiangnan, obviously he didn't believe this, but he didn't ask again, just said leisurely, "There is still more than a month before the New Year's Eve, Tang Cheng, maybe you should pay more attention Think about it."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Tang Cheng to answer, Sun Shijun waved his hand, "I'm tired, I have something to talk about some other day", and then stepped out of the side door...

Chapter 141 Grandson, who is afraid of whom!

The side door that Sun Shijun left was in a small garden of the state government. Although this small garden is not big, but because the governor has to come and go from here every day, the handyman took care of it with extra care. The flowers are red and the willows are green are very pleasing to look at, even Sun Shijun likes to take a walk in this small circle to get some fresh air if he stays in the office for a long time and feels suffocated.

After watching Sun Shijun leave from the side door, Tang Cheng did not rush away, and walked slowly on the flower path in the small garden with his hands behind his back.

It is already cold winter, and the flowers in the small garden have already withered, a scene of desolation and decay, Tang Cheng's eyes unconsciously looked at the faded flowers and plants, but his mind was spinning rapidly, thinking about what Sun Shijun just said Those words.

Sun Shijun clearly meant to persuade him to leave!

Although I knew that the new observation envoy of Shannan Dongdao was Yu Dongjun, Minister of the Ministry of Industry, Zhang Liang also said something about this person, but after all, it was too careless. What kind of person is he? What charter?It seems too far away to think about it now, but for the Jinzhou government office and Tang Cheng, everything about Yu Dongjun will exist as a solid background.And the Jinzhou government office, which is bound to undergo drastic changes in the next year, will operate and dance against this background.

Unfortunately, more information about this background is unknown.

Apart from these distant backgrounds, what kind of character will the new state governor be like?Strong?peaceful?Or is Sun Shijun so loose on the outside and tight on the inside?Speaking of which, the behavior style of the new envoy really affects everyone who works in the state government.It's a pity that we don't know anything about the situation of the new envoy.

Thinking of this, Tang Cheng shook his head. Whether it is the background or the small environment of Jinzhou in the future, it is unknown. Compared with the present, it is indeed much more difficult for him to get along with the horse!

Without Shijun Sun, without direct leverage, facing a horse that has been dug into a hole by himself, this situation...is really too fucking challenging.Thinking of this, Tang Cheng heaved a sigh of relief.

In the freezing weather, the breath he exhaled immediately turned into a white mist before his eyes, and then dissipated suddenly.

Difficult be difficult, rely on!Without Sun Shijun, would he not be alive?Is an old horse worth watching and running away?After all, I am also a man, so I can't be cowardly if I am a man!

He kicked heavily on the tree in front of him. While the trunk was shaking, the withered yellow leaves hanging from it fluttered down and landed on Tang Cheng's head and shoulders, but he didn't brush them off. With this kick, my heart felt much more relaxed. At the same time, a bloody fighting spirit surged up from the bottom of my heart under the blowing of the cold wind.

Since he stepped into the Yunxi county government office, he has been working as a civil servant in the Tang Dynasty for so long. Before him, there was Zhang County Magistrate and Zhao Huhu; tough situation.Tension is certainly a bit tense, but this kind of tense pressure can also stimulate blood and fighting spirit for tough people.

Come on, come on, my father is also a time traveler, grandson's, who is afraid of whom?

Walk?Tang Cheng never thought about it, even when Sun Shijun persuaded him gently, he never thought about leaving.go, where are you going?

go back!With an old horse around, even if he wanted to go back home and farm, he couldn’t do it. The county magistrate who broke the family, the magistrate who killed the family, Yin, let alone, he didn’t want to be like Chen Ziang. Jane died unjustly in prison.

It is impossible to go back, let alone go to Chang'an.The Golden City is much more complicated and dangerous than the Golden State. The enemies that Li Sanlang will face, whether it is Empress Wei, Princess Taiping, or even his father, King An Guoxiang, are not ten or a hundred times more powerful than the old horse. ?If he, Tang Cheng, can't even handle the horse in front of him, what's the point of going to Chang'an?

Tang Cheng's current situation is that he has no way to advance or retreat, even if he can advance or retreat, he will not leave, so I will be wasted here!Still the same sentence, if you are a man, you can't be cowardly, grandson, who is afraid of whom!

After dispelling the negative emotions caused by Sun Shijun's words just now, Tang Cheng, who was full of fighting spirit, kicked heavily on the tree again, watching the yellow leaves falling and flying all over the sky.

"This damn place is really cold." After calming down, Tang Cheng felt the coldness of this place, and he didn't want to stay here anymore, so he walked out.

Just now, he was thinking about his own road after the next year. Now, walking on the stone-paved flower path, Tang Cheng, whose mind returned to Qingming, suddenly thought of the road from Fangzhou next door to Daocheng. The emperor was concerned about this, Yu Dongjun came down for this too.

I was really confused just now!What is unclear about the background of Shannan Dongdao after the year?Isn't it Lu? No matter who Yu Dongjun is or how he does things, his purpose is all in this.If you don't know anything else, what's the matter if you can't see clearly? As long as you grasp this main contradiction, you can't go wrong.

His more than 400 mu of river beach land was not bought for nothing, and he also pointed to this road to increase the value to make money!Road, road, Tang Cheng walked the road under his feet, but his mind turned to the road that the emperor wanted to build, and the Eastern Army wanted to build it.

In this process, what role can Golden State, which is adjacent to the housing state, play?And how should he himself specifically and truly grasp this main contradiction?

Trends, general trends, such words seem to be dangling and dizzy to hear, but they are real and extremely powerful.And the more in a society ruled by man, the greater the power of the trend.In later generations, there was a trend that instantly made a farmer a deputy prime minister, and a small worker rose like a rocket to become a country vice president. Tang Cheng didn't want to be Wang Hongwen, nor did he think about being Chen Yonggui. What he was thinking at the moment Just by the wind.

In many cases, there is no distinction between right and wrong, or there are different ways to measure right and wrong. It pays more attention to the direction. When the trend comes together, it is right to go with it, and it is wrong to go against it!

What is the upcoming trend in Shannan Dongdao?Lu, as long as you follow this trend and stay hidden in this trend, you are the greatest safety.

Knowing the upcoming trend through Zhang Liang, this is Tang Cheng's greatest advantage at the moment, but subject to the limitations of his identity and status, when thinking about how to keep up with and take advantage of the trend, it is difficult for Tang Cheng now to have any Planning, there are too many things, too many variables, and he knows too little, so he can't see clearly!

If you can’t see clearly, then you can’t see clearly. After thinking about it for a while without a clue, Tang Cheng simply stopped thinking about it. Since he is unable to manipulate the general trend, he can only wait for this trend to rise before responding. At least he knows the direction and fully When you are mentally prepared, what you have to do next year is to go in the right direction and try to seize every available opportunity in the tide.

Temporarily putting aside these metaphysical general trends, while walking home, Tang Cheng thought of the real things in front of him on the road.For him, the fraud case caused by Lao Liang is completely over after today.From then on, all he had to do was not to have any accidents in Si Tiancao's position as judge.

Standing upright, Tang Cheng reminded himself once again in his heart that he should not take any money that should not be collected. This is not only because he was touched by the child in the morning, but also in the current situation, he couldn't accept it. Leave any handles for the old horse to catch.In the near future, it is necessary to protect one's life; in the farther distance, he cannot lose the position of Sitian Cao's judge.

The first way to build roads is to use land. As long as he is still in this position, as long as he is still in charge of the fields in Jinzhou, no matter how small his official is, he cannot be bypassed in the great cause of road construction by the Eastern Army. This is a gap Although it is a very small opening, it is the portal through which Tang Cheng can possess the trend.

While staying clean and guarding the door, those who should be strengthened should also be contacted. For example, the Yunxi County Yamen, without Mr. Sun Shijun at the top, it is particularly important to borrow strength from the bottom...

Thinking of this in his heart, when Tang Cheng arrived home, it was already completely dark, and he entered the main room in the inner courtyard, Lancao waited for him to change out the clothes he was wearing outside.

After changing into the loose and casual home clothes, Tang Cheng sat down comfortably by the fire cage, warmed up by the fire, and ate hot wine on the fire cage.

Tang Cheng was also a little tired this day. At this time, when he returned home and sat by the fire cage, eating hot three-leaf oatmeal, he felt that every part of his body was ironed from the inside to the outside. It’s a comfortable home where you can completely relax. No matter how hard or tired a man is outside, it doesn’t matter.
