With this in mind, Gu Chen waved his hand, called Yue Peng to the front door and said, "Come here, this is what you have to do."
"For now, let our people stop checking those buildings."
"Wait ten days and a half, let all those people relax their vigilance, thinking that we all know that we don't care about this matter, or that we don't care about it."
"Then you make a surprise attack and catch them off guard."
"Otherwise, if you check every day, if people know that you check every day, they will definitely not dare to go, right?"
In the Qing Dynasty, the inspections were very strict, so that those people kept at home with handsome young men.
Well, no need to say more about what it is used for, right?
As for sweeping away oranges, even if he, Gu Chen, has never eaten pork, he has seen pigs running away, and he is also very knowledgeable about detection methods.
He felt that they were all about setting up camp in advance, gradually growing the team, and then picking a suitable opportunity to catch them all.
Finally, justifiably, he will make a lot of money for his department.
"Master Gu..." Yue Peng hesitated: "Isn't this good? Isn't our purpose to prevent officials from indulging in wine and sex?"
How does it sound like condoning people to do bad things?
"You can't say that." Gu Chen said immediately: "The Doctrine of the Mean in the Book of Rites says: Don't see what is hidden, don't show what is subtle, so a gentleman should be cautious about being alone."
"What it means is that a gentleman must be cautious about being alone. Even if he is alone and no one is paying attention, he must be careful about his words and actions, and he must not make a wrong step."
"If someone investigates, they won't do bad things. But if no one investigates, won't they feel free to do bad things boldly?"
"This is a hypocrite!"
"This is the kind of hypocrite we are looking for. Those hypocrites we uncover are the result of the imperial court and the interests of the country and the country."
"What's wrong? We didn't let them go shopping in the building."
What Gu Chen said was so reasonable and well-founded that Yue Peng nodded repeatedly.
"Yes, sir, I will do this when I get back."
What Mr. Gu said seemed to make sense, and it wasn't them who asked them to go to prostitutes.
What's wrong?
If you want to blame, you can only blame them for their lack of personal ethics, but you can't blame them for the insidiousness of the Metropolitan Procuratorate.
"Oh, Lord Fan."
Yue Peng had just opened the door and found Fan Congwen standing at the door. He immediately raised his hands and saluted.
"kindness."
Fan Congwen smiled, watched him leave, and immediately got in and closed the door.
"Master Gu, you are too courageous, actually... actually... you..."
Make money this way?
He made a motion of cutting his head.
Don't want to die?
"Master Fan, what are you afraid of?"
Gu Chen asked him to sit down and got up to make him a cup of tea.
"Did I do something wrong?"
Fan Congwen's eyes widened instantly. Is it right to make money?
Just listen to Gu Chen say: "Your Majesty didn't tell you to ask the censor to inspect the building every day, let alone how to do it."
"I didn't hold a knife to their necks and let them go shopping in the building and have fun. They chose the path themselves."
"What's wrong? What's so scary?"
Besides, it's just sixty hits and a fine of ten guan.
Neither demoting the official nor risking one's life!
Yu Min and Ding Ting went to Jiangsu and Zhejiang for inspection. When they return from the local area, they are afraid that the Ministry of Revenue will dig at the land again and give people less reimbursement.
This fine and confiscated money is just enough for everyone to pay for it.
It's not that he is nosy, but that he is the leader of others.
So as a leader, you can't let your people suffer, right?
Otherwise, who will obey you?
If a leader cannot protect the people under him, what kind of leader are you?
"But..." Fan Congwen always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell what was wrong: "Whatever, I didn't come here to talk to you about this."
"I'm here to borrow money from you. The thirteenth day of next month will be the Queen's Qianqiu gift. Officials and family members above the fifth rank will come to the palace to celebrate and present gifts."
"My hand...to be honest, it's a little tight."
Those little wives from Hubu spent 30 guan on his three-year stay in Fujian, but they deducted 8 guan from him without blinking an eye.
He has a thin skin, and he can't be shameless enough to argue with people in the Hubu about such yellow and white things, but the people in the Hubu are as shameless as a city wall.
If a thin-skinned person confronts a thick-skinned person, the thin-skinned person will definitely suffer.
No, Fan Congwen suffered this loss.
"How much do you want to borrow?" Gu Chen said as he reached for his pocket and said, "I just have ten guan of money on me, is that enough?"
did you see it?
This is the disadvantage of being thin-skinned. If you are embarrassed to argue with others about these yellow and white things, then you are the only one who will be wronged.
"That's enough, that's enough. Five guans is enough." Fan Congwen only took five guans and said, "Fortunately, our empress is wise and doesn't care about too much etiquette or too little."
"When the queen gives you something in return, I will return it to you."
The queen knew they were short of money, so she always gave something back.
The prices are similar to the ones they give away, and often a bit higher.
Therefore, giving gifts to the Queen every year is the happiest time for them.
Not only was there no loss, but I felt comfortable and warm.
"It's easy to talk about."
Gu Chen also understood that although Lao Fan was now a fourth-rank official like himself, he was not like him, and he often had special needs to support him.
Moreover, it is not the time to pay salary yet, so it is normal for money to be tight.
On the first day of work, he didn't succeed and was busy almost all the time.
I also went to Shuntian Fuyin twice to discuss difficult cases with Mr. Fuyin.
It was finally time to get off work, but as soon as he left the palace gate, he bumped into King Yan who had just returned to the capital.
After not seeing each other for several years, Zhu Xiaosi followed Xu Da and traveled thousands of miles on the battlefield.
Now his youthfulness has faded away, and his whole person has become much more majestic.
Since we bumped into each other, we couldn't let it go. Gu Chen saluted respectfully.
"I have met His Highness King Yan."
Why is Zhu Xiaosi's face so dark and why does he feel a little bad?
When his father-in-law was ill, Zhu Di didn't want to talk to him, but he felt that the person in front of him looked familiar. After taking a closer look, wasn't this the little censor who encouraged him to kill Zhu Huan ten years ago?
Wasn't he accidentally tricked into Zhuang Lang by himself?
"Hey, Mr. Gu." Zhu Di stopped and looked at the old acquaintance in front of him with his hands on his hips: "Not bad, but in a few years, he has been promoted to the second rank?"
What happened back then was not intentional, he just drank a few more glasses of wine and said a few words to Chen Ning. Who knew that Chen Ning was so quick to talk.
I thought that this child had been tricked by me, but who knew that he had been promoted to the second level.
It seems that his father and eldest brother value him very much.
"Your Highness King Yan, I am the censor of Zuoqiandu of the fourth rank, not the second rank."
Your father doesn't follow the rules and wears his hair and clothes in a disorderly manner, but he doesn't wear them indiscriminately.
Zhu Di raised his eyebrows and didn't say let him go. Instead, he looked him up and down and said, "That can be considered a quick promotion."
Then he turned around to leave, suddenly thought of something, and turned around to remind him.
"Thanks to you, my brothers don't have many female relatives in the backyard now. Several brothers are also going back to Beijing this year. I wonder if they will invite Mr. Gu for tea?"
Although he only has one wife now, he doesn't want to marry a second one for the time being.
But brothers are different, especially his second brother. If he falls into the hands of his second brother, then Gu Chen will probably suffer the same consequences.
"His Royal Highness King Yan is really joking. The vassal prince and his courtiers are not allowed to have personal relationships. Even if several highnesses are willing to show their favor, I would not dare to go."
Gu Chen was completely honest and replied with a smile. He was just a suggestion.
Do you understand the suggestion?
It was Lao Zhu who adopted and implemented it, not him. Should he go to Lao Zhu to express his dissatisfaction?
Besides, the prince can at least have four wives.
This is already a lot, okay?
You people like the new and hate the old, but you can't get even rain and dew every day. You sow seeds to increase the country's population. Why do you have so many rice bugs?
Unless you go to a foreign country in the future, then you can have as many children as you want!
"Then, I wish you good luck."
Seeing that he was not afraid, Zhu Di hurriedly left with his own people.
He had to go to his father. There were many capable people in Nanjing, so he had to beg his father to see if he could advertise in the capital and find a doctor who could cure back carbuncle.
Otherwise, Miaoyun would have been extremely anxious.
Gu Chen saw that he had an anxious look on his face, as if something was wrong, but he didn't want to ask any more questions.
Rules for survival in officialdom: See more, think more, talk less and don’t be too curious, because curiosity can easily kill the cat.
