It didn't take much time for Ji Xuanhe to enter the government office. At this time, the officials of the government office gathered in twos and threes and talked quietly.Seeing Ji Xuanhe, all the officials stepped forward to say hello, and Ji Xuanhe nodded.Such battles are experienced every day, and Ji Xuanhe has long been used to it.The allure of power is really everywhere, which is one of the reasons why so many people want to go to official career even if they are desperate.

Now the government of Yingzhou has formed a three-legged situation, with Ji Xuanhe as the main force, and the faction of prefects coordinated by Wen Tongzhi occupying the most power, and they have nearly half of the voice of the government.

The second is the faction of the newcomer Yao Tongzhi. Judging from the current situation, Yao Tongzhi is the leader. I think this faction has been in contact before, otherwise a few months will not be enough for Yao Tongzhi to control the matter.

The last faction is the joint force of Qian Tongpan and Zheng Tongpan.

These three factions obviously have different positions. Ji Xuanhe does not have such a strong desire, and he is more fair in dealing with things. In the eyes of outsiders, he is quite upright. In this way, he will inevitably block the way of some people.

Yao Tongzhi is more utilitarian here, and there are people behind him with different positions, so it is bound to be a bit of a confrontation with Ji Xuanhe in his actions.

On Qian Tongpan and Zheng Tongpan's side, their positions are a little low, but they are very good at dealing with people, and they give all kinds of small favors to their subordinates and officials, and win over many people.Although it is the weakest of the three forces, it has adjusted the friction between Ji Xuan and Yao Tongzhi very well, and survived well in the cracks.Compared with Yao Tongzhi's side, they can earn much less money. They know their abilities and don't earn too much, so they can enjoy the fun within their abilities with peace of mind.

It seems that Qian Tongpan and Zheng Tongpan are relatively peaceful and don't have so much ambition. They should be able to get along happily with Ji Xuan and Wen Tongzhi, but the fact is not always the case. They are not from Ji Xuanhe's side, which involves question of position.Anyone who can be a sixth-rank official has his own background, and it is basically impossible to fight alone like Ji Xuanhe.

Ji Xuanhe was able to act like this because he was surrounded by King An.Don't look at King An, who has not directly maintained him since he became the prefect, but any officials who are a little bit capable of King An's deterrence know that without conclusive evidence, it is best not to touch Ji Xuanhe .

Being an official is not easy, no one is idle to try to see if Ji Xuan and the people behind him are willing to support him, the most is to do something harmless, even if the higher-ups pursue it, it will not affect them much, or they either don't do it, or they don't. Just do it neatly, directly deal with big things that can make Ji Xuanhe unable to turn over, small troubles, sticky things, so they don't waste that time on Ji Xuanhe.

Ji Xuanhe returned to his seat and sat down, his eyes swept over the officials below.It is said that they gather casually in twos and threes, but in fact, they are very particular, they are not from the same circle, and they rarely get together to chat, and there are also relatively marginal people, exchanging information that they can communicate in a low voice.

Without making Ji Xuanhe wait any longer, all the government officials arrived on time when the o'clock arrived.In the afternoon, it was just a cutscene, after making sure that nothing major happened, the officials quickly dispersed and went back to everyone.There were not many people left in the lobby, and Ji Xuanhe also returned to his office.

Not everyone can enter the important government office, and Zhile, who is an official's entourage, is naturally not allowed to enter.People like them are left by the gate of the government office, where there is a special place for them, so that when the master wants to use them, they can be called at any time.

Not every official's entourage will stay there all day. Some of the servants will turn around and go back after sending their masters into the government office. There is still room for them in the house.Such officials are usually from ordinary or not-so-well-off families, and idle people are not allowed in the family.

Ji's family didn't have such a situation. Zhile stayed there, fighting with other officials' servants enthusiastically and generously. A lot of gossip and gossip could be found out from them.

Ji Xuanhe used to have the habit of asking the children he took in to keep an eye on the news from everywhere. After he tasted the benefits, he didn't change it when he arrived in Yingzhou Prefecture.It's still the same as before, but it's more low-key than before. After all, Yingzhou Prefecture is different from Xilin County. There are complex members and a large number of people here. It will not benefit the Ji family at all if it catches the eyes of others and enters the eyes of interested people.

Ji Xuanhe didn't ask people to listen deliberately, but only asked the person in charge of the matter from time to time to regularly collect all kinds of messy news from the staff and farmers under his own banner.The servants of Zhuangzi in Ji's shop played it unintentionally, and the special staff deliberately paid attention to it. Ji Xuanhe would not be able to clearly know the private news of each family.

Yingzhou Prefecture is much larger than Xilin County, and because of this, Ji Xuan and Yingzhou Capital City cannot control all the news, and there are many things he doesn't know about.Ji Xuanhe felt that it was very good to be able to do this. After all, the Ji family didn't have many professionals in this field, and there were only a few. How could it compare to the scouts in the army?

These people have their own positions to guard, and collecting information is just by the way, and Ji Xuanhe didn't force too much.He did this just to keep himself from being too passive. It was considered a success if he could analyze the general trend of each family from the clues, but he didn't have the ability to care about the rest.

Ji Xuanhe paid more attention to this aspect after learning that Wang An had a nail by his side.He asked Shao Yunchen to check the servants of Ji's family calmly, and only after making sure that there was nothing unusual in them did he feel at ease.

Only when his own house is clean can Ji Xuanhe feel that he has a private space. He doesn't want to do what he just did, and the next moment the information will be sent to others. Living like this is too suffocating.As for those outside Ji's house, he can't control them anymore. That being said, Ji Xuanhe should tell Uncle Qiu and the others to pay more attention to the surrounding situation, to see if any strange faces often appear around them, then this person will be suspicious. Maybe it's Wang An's man.

If you really want to observe deliberately, such a person is relatively easy to be found.There is no such thing as martial arts in Jin Dynasty, and martial arts practitioners are stronger than ordinary people, and their five senses are more sensitive. It is impossible to intrude silently.After a long time, a few people were exposed, and these people were also alert, and after they found out that they were exposed, they never appeared again.

Based on this, Ji Xuanhe judged that these people were probably under An Wang's subordinates. As for whether An Wang still had any people left in Yingzhou Fucheng, Ji Xuanhe could not know.Even if there are people stationed there, they are similar to the people in Yingzhou Fucheng, living a normal life. They may pay more attention to Ji's mansion and want to observe the situation of Ji's family at any time, but they don't have this environment.For being able to get rid of the flies around him, Ji Xuanhe was quite happy, no one wanted to be watched with searchlight-like eyes wherever he went.

Ji Xuanhe knew that he had registered with King An, and now he was providing textbooks for the prince. It seemed impossible that King An would not pay attention to him at all, as long as he was not watched all the time, he didn't care.Anyway, he never thought of doing anything outrageous, no one messed with her, and he was happy to be at ease.

When Ji Xuan and Shao Yunchen adopted a stepchild, they considered whether or not to raise a little girl, but they both rejected it in the end.The Jin Dynasty is a society that pays attention to dignity. If you raise a girl, you have to marry someone else's family when you grow up. There is no other way to go.At that time, their husbands and wives still have to worry about her. If something goes wrong, the natal family can come to the door to reason. want to see.

This is still the second, the main reason is that Ji Xuan and Tong Shao Yunchen are both men, raising a little girl seems a little bad, and it is not necessarily a good thing for the growth of a girl.No matter who made the masters of the Ji family all men, there was not even a trace of a woman.The servant is not counted, the master is the master, if the master's temperament follows the servant, she will have a sad life in the future, and she will be so tired that Ji Xuan and his wife will have endless troubles.After careful consideration, the two of them simply adopted the two boys, which would save a lot of trouble.

Ji Xuanhe has a title on him.During the war, families like Ji Xuanhe with illustrious titles were still recognized in Jin'an County, and accordingly, they had to bear greater responsibilities.Rights and responsibilities usually correspond to each other, and the greater the rights, the greater the responsibilities.

Ji Xuanhe's Xujue is the lowest grade, and there is no way to lower it. The five stones of grain that he can receive every year is almost two people's rations for a year.In the eyes of peasants, this is something that can make them jealous. When it comes to officials and officials, no one will care about it, but no one will dismiss it.

With the ebb and flow, it is impossible for every family to prosper forever. Once it falls, the benefits of this virtual noble will be revealed. No matter what happens, it will be much better than the children of poor families, and the speed of making a comeback will be much faster than them .

Since King An recognized the existing titles in his territory, no one was willing to give up. It was obviously unrealistic to ask them to contribute money and food directly, but it was feasible to ask them to contribute extra to King An's soldiers.Whether it's sewing a few sets of marching uniforms for free (the fabric is still provided by the Ministry of War), or making weapons and equipment, Ji Xuan and them have done their best.

Now that Ji Xuanhe has an heir, the Xu Jue of the Ji family will automatically transfer to Ji Ningyou.The little guy doesn't know about it yet, Ji Xuan and Tong Shao Yunchen decided to tell him when he is older.

During the day, Ji Xuanhe and Shao Yunchen have things to do, Ji Xuanhe has no time at all, Shao Yunchen needs more time, and he can't be with the two children all the time, but Old Master Zhen has no such worries.Although he is old, he is very energetic. There are many officials in the mansion and mansion, and there are also a few old masters. Old Master Zhen goes to the old men to join in the fun when he has nothing to do.Now that he has two children, he has another joy, which is to lead the two children to wander around.

Now the child's complexion is still ugly, long-term malnutrition, it will not be able to bring it back in a short time.Old Master Zhen knew this truth, he didn't take the children out of the Ji Mansion, he just wandered around in the front, middle and back yards of the three-entry mansion.Children, it's not a good thing to be confined in the house, with Mrs. Zhen as an old child, Ji's mansion can occasionally hear the children's laughter, which adds a lot of anger to Ji's family.

It's not that there are no children among the servants of Ji's family, but these children basically don't appear in the house, and all the children's parents and grandparents take care of them in their own small house.Among the servants of Jifu, unless someone takes a fancy to these children who have reached a certain age and is willing to train them, otherwise they will not be able to work in Jifu until they are at least ten years old.

The two brothers Ji Ningyou and Ji Ningran are still young. After discussing with Shao Yunchen, Ji Xuanhe and Shao Yunchen decided to equip them with servants who are comparable to their age and older. Forget it, Ji Xuan and his husband haven't decided whether to assign them maids or not.

"Master, this is a post from Qian Tongpan's family." Jimo's surname is unknown. After he became a manager, the servants all called him Manager Mo. He happened to be free that day, and when the porter handed in a post, he just picked it up He came over and personally delivered it to his master Shao Yunchen.
