After the signatures were registered, the attitude of the registration officer in charge of the criminal department was completely different. He was respectful at first and then arrogant at the same time. Zhu Ping'an didn't care about this. It's normal to bow down when someone is high and step down when someone is humble. This seems to be human nature. Since ancient times, there have been endless people who behave like this, and he is no exception.
If you want others to look up to you, you have to stand high. If you are in a low place, don't care about others stepping on you.
Just be calm and go your own way.
Zhu Ping'an took the reminder letter from the Ministry of Punishment and entered the Yamen Courtyard of the Ministry of Punishment. Following the "tips" from the registration officer at the door, he turned left and went to the second door.
The Xingbu Yamen is larger than the Hanlin Academy. There is a row of wing rooms on the left and right sides of the courtyard. The wing rooms on both sides are very long rows. They are the Thirteen Cleaning Officials Division of the Xingbu Yamen. There are seven Cleaning Officials Divisions on the right side. , there are six Qing officials on the left, each occupying a room. A vermilion lantern hangs at the door, with the name of each Qing official written on it.
The Qing Li Division on the left is Zhejiang Qing Li Division, Shaanxi Qing Li Division, Jiangxi Qing Li Division, Huguang Qing Li Division, Guangdong Qing Li Division, and Shandong Qing Li Division.
The second door to the left mentioned by the registration official at the door should be the Shaanxi Qing Officials Department. According to the official system of the Ming Dynasty, the Shaanxi Qing officials were in charge of criminal matters in Shaanxi and Gansu, and were also in charge of the military governor's office, the Xingren Division, the 11th Guards including the Imperial Guards in Beijing, and the Salt Transport Division in Hedong.
Zhao Daying's department was affiliated with Gansu and fell within the jurisdiction of the Shaanxi Qing Officials Division. Well, that should be it. Zhu Pingan thought for a moment and walked towards the Shaanxi Qing Officials Department.
The sun was just right at this time, and Zhu Ping'an walked into the door, blocking the sunlight shining into the window, leaving a long and wide human-shaped shadow in the room for a while.
There were six people in the room at this time, sitting in different positions in the room, holding files or writing in regular script. They were all busy with official duties. However, as Zhu Pingan entered the door and blocked the sun, dimming the light in the room, the six people Everyone put down what they were doing and glanced at the person coming from the door.
"Excuse me, Zhu Ping'an, a minister of the Hanlin Academy, came to the Ministry of Punishment to express his feelings." After Zhu Pingan walked into the office room of the Shaanxi Qing Officials Department, he stood at the door with a smile and said to the officials of the Ministry of Punishment in the room.
According to the official system of the Ming Dynasty, the official configuration of each Qing official department is roughly as follows: each department has 1 doctor, with the fifth rank, each department has 1 Yuanwailang, with the fifth rank, each department has 1 principal, with the sixth rank, and additional ministers There are some officials. Generally speaking, none of the official officials here have a lower official position than Zhu Ping'an, so Zhu Ping'an calls himself a lower official here.
"who?"
"Zhu Pingan?"
After hearing Zhu Pingan's words, the six people couldn't help but raise their heads and focus on Zhu Pingan, sizing them up as if they were looking at rare animals.
Rare Animals?
Yes, in their eyes, Zhu Pingan is a rare animal.
They have seen people who impeached Yan Song. Although there are very few people who impeached Yan Song, they have also seen many people who impeached Yan Song in the Ministry of Justice, such as Shen Lian, Zhao Jin, Zhou Mian, etc. However, they only impeached Yan Song within a few days of becoming an official. Yan Song, this is the first time they have met.
Who is Yan Song? He is the chief minister of the dynasty, and he is worth more than ten thousand people. Since Mr. Yan Ge took charge of the cabinet, all those who impeached Mr. Yan Ge have failed, and their endings have been tragic. Imprisonment is too common. , cutting jobs to serve the people is the result of smoke rising from ancestral graves, and many people have been wiped out from the world.
There are so many lessons learned!
However, Zhu Ping'an, who had spent ten years in poverty, had just passed the single-plank bridge of the imperial examination, and was still the top scholar. He was the youngest scholar in the Ming Dynasty. There is no doubt that the scholar with a bright future had not yet become an official. A few days later, the memorial indirectly impeached Mr. Yan Ge.
With so many lessons learned, don’t you know the consequences of impeachment? I believe that it is impossible for anyone who can be the number one scholar not to know the consequences!
However, knowing that there are tigers in the mountains, I still prefer to go to the tiger mountains.
How wonderful it is to be an official. After passing five passes and killing six generals, and thousands of troops crossing a single-plank bridge, you can achieve your current official status! Have power and status, don’t worry about food and clothing, don’t worry about money, be as beautiful as jade and have a house of gold! Even though you may be like money, but what about your own value!
Awesome my brother!
You don’t want any of these? ! Then why did you bother studying so hard for ten years?
Therefore, in the eyes of the officials present, Zhu Pingan is like a rare animal. It's such a pity that at such a young age, there is something unimaginable that will bring trouble to Mr. Yan Ge.
"Don't stand here, Pingan. Sit down and talk. Our Ministry of Punishment and your Hanlin Academy are neighbors, so you don't have to be polite here." Zhai Juntao, a doctor in the Shaanxi Qing Li Division, coughed and ordered someone to move a chair for Zhu Pingan. He said gently Said to Zhu Pingan.
"I don't dare to bother you, sir. Just stand here." Zhu Pingan declined.
"Don't be polite. Just sit down and talk. Otherwise, I will have to stand with you?" Zhai Juntao said pretending to be angry.
"Then, thank you so much, sir." Zhu Pingan had no choice but to thank him and sit down.
Neither humble nor arrogant, Zhu Pingan's words and deeds left a deep impression on everyone, so they felt sorry for Zhu Pingan even more.
After sitting down, Shaanxi Qing Lisi Langzhong ordered someone to pour a cup of tea for Zhu Pingan, and then sent someone to the office of He Ao, the Minister of the Ministry of Justice, to report. When Zhu Ping'an came to the Ministry of Punishment to make a complaint, the Qing Li Department could not make the decision yet, so they had to ask He Ao, the Minister of Punishment, to make the decision.
The clerk left the Shaanxi Qing Li Department and went to He Ao's office. After less than ten minutes, he returned.
The clerk came to Zhai Juntao, put his ear next to him, and whispered to him that Mr. He Aohe had been summoned to the Yan Mansion by Mr. Yan Shifan in the morning, and he had not returned yet.
The clerk's voice was like a mosquito, but for Zhu Pingan, who could read lips, the volume of his voice didn't matter to him, as long as he could see his lip movements.
"Peace, He Shangshu has some important matters to deal with. Please sit down for a while. I'll wait until He Shangshu has finished what he's doing, and I won't bother him again." After hearing the news brought by the junior official, Zhai Juntao, the official of Shaanxi Qing Dynasty, said He coughed, looked at Zhu Pingan and said.
"Everything is at your discretion."
Zhu Ping'an's face remained unchanged, but there was a burst of slander in his heart. Is there something important that He Shangshu needs to deal with now? ! Going to Yan's Mansion to win over her feelings has become a priority. At this time, Yan Shifan called him to Yan's Mansion, and it was estimated that the death was probably related to his memorial.
It seems that this petition meeting will be very lively. To be continued.
