After sending Xia Dezhang to remind Zhou Ming, Deng Tong stood there and watched Xia Dezhang carefully, hoping that he could successfully complete the mission, otherwise if something went wrong, he would definitely suffer along with him.
After all, although he had caught the loophole in Xia Dezhang's words just now and escaped the fate of going to Yi Ming's place in person and suffering a lot of hardships, he knew Xia Dezhang very well. If this boy shared wealth with him, it would definitely be fine, but he wanted to be with him It is impossible to share weal and woe.
As long as he encounters danger, he will definitely confess himself as soon as possible. Even if he angers Zhou Ming, when he is questioned, Xia Dezhang will definitely put all the responsibility on himself in order to escape. By then, once Zhou Ming becomes angry, , even if I have a hundred mouths, I still can’t explain it.
The reason why he kept looking at Xia Dezhang was because he wanted to judge whether he was in trouble through the body language of his conversation with Zhou Ming later. If something went wrong, in order to save himself, he must rush over quickly and get there before Xia Dezhang framed him. , tell the truth of the matter, and even if Zhou Ming is really blamed, he and Xia Dezhang will share the blame, so that one person will not be dealt with miserably.
But what Deng Tong didn't expect was that Xia Dezhang suddenly stopped before he could reach Yi Ming. He seemed to be frightened by something and did not dare to take another step forward. Instead, he acted like a coward. Like a bag, he slowly returned it.
Deng Tong knew something was wrong, so he quickly withdrew his gaze and stayed at his post. While angrily scolding the people in the team not to move around, he looked at Xia Dezhang from the corner of his eye.
After Xia Dezhang came back dejectedly, he confirmed that Zhou Ming's attention was not here, so Deng Tong quickly asked: "What's going on? Why did you come back without saying a word to Brother Zhou? Aren't you usually very brave? Really? Why are you suddenly scared now!"
"Inspector Deng, are you talking humanly?" Xia Dezhang was furious. He shouted angrily in a very low voice, "We have worked together for many years, and this is what I look like in your heart, right? Okay, I Aren't you cowardly? Go by yourself!"
As soon as Xia Dezhang finished speaking, he immediately grabbed Deng Tong's sleeve and wanted to take him to see Yi Ming.
Xia Dezhang usually inspects the Yamen in the south of the city. Although Xia Dezhang has always looked down on his old boss, thinking that he is incompetent and timid, the reason why he cannot climb higher is entirely his own fault.
Although he had a lot of complaints against Deng Tong, he had never been so rude to Deng Tong. After all, although this guy was not a good person, he was still his boss. If the relationship was too tense, it would not be good for either of them. , and also make his subordinates laugh.
At this time, the reason why Xia Dezhang was so innocent was that he was completely angry. As soon as he said the words, he actually regretted it, but it was difficult to recover, and there was no way to remedy it.
If his subordinates were so rude to him, Deng Tong would not be able to bear this kind of thing in ordinary times. He would definitely show off his airs as an inspector, scold the other party, demote him, remove him, and deal with it severely. .
On the one hand, he did this because Deng Tong was short-sighted, and on the other hand, he knew that if he wanted to secure the top position in the inspection yamen in the south of the city, he must establish his authority. If he is a blessing, then he is not far away from being dismissed.
It's just that in today's matter, he did not do it properly enough, which angered Xia Dezhang.
Seeing that Xia Dezhang was about to drag him to see Zhou Ming, he suddenly felt frightened. With a smile on his face, he pulled Xia Dezhang back hard, and kept whispering to admit his mistake: "Good brother, this time It’s my fault, you sir have a lot, so don’t treat me like I am this time.”
When Xia Dezhang heard this, he felt a little calmer. He deliberately pretended to be still angry and said angrily: "This means you are my boss. We usually get along well, otherwise today I’m not done with you in this matter!”
Deng Tong pulled him back to his original post, and the two stood side by side.
Deng Tong kept smiling: "Good brother, just bear with me this time.
By the way, what happened? You and Brother Zhou didn't even talk to each other, why did you turn around and come back? "
Xia Dezhang rolled his eyes at him and said in a very disappointed tone: "Do you think I want to do this? There is nothing we can do.
You have also seen that Brother Zhou and Master Han are like relatives who have not seen each other for a long time. There is endless talk between the two of them.
Just now I followed your instructions and planned to go over and remind Brother Zhou, but before I could get closer, Brother Zhou raised his arm and punched me out. And looking at him, he seemed to be disgusted by others approaching. "
After hearing these words, Deng Tong glanced in the direction of Yi Ming and the others, thought about it carefully, and was immediately shocked because he felt that Han Pingzhi and Yi Ming must be discussing something big. Fortunately, Xia Dezhang was killed without getting close just now. Todoroki left, otherwise if he really heard any secrets, he might get into big trouble.
"Fortunately, you were discovered without getting too close, otherwise we would both be in trouble if we heard something we shouldn't have heard." Deng Tong looked at the prisoner and muttered in a low voice.
The volume of this muttering was only loud enough for Xia Dezhang to hear.
Xia Dezhang thought about this sentence carefully, and after a while he was frightened because he also discovered the seriousness of the matter.
The two people looked at each other, and no longer dared to act rashly. They could only stand at their posts and guard the prisoners. The two people only hoped that Yi Ming could settle everything smoothly. They did not seek wealth. I just want to drink some soup with Yi Ming.
Han Pingzhi, who has been telling Yi Ming about the way of imperial service, just now discovered Xia Dezhang sneaking closer, but he didn't take it to heart, thinking that this person was just a small role under Yi Ming. If Yi Ming was not afraid that he would take these Han Pingzhi was even less afraid of secret knowledge eavesdropping on the past.
Because for a small character like Xia Dezhang, even if he learns these ways of governing, it will not be of any use. After all, it is simply impossible for a small bureaucrat like this who is struggling at the bottom to get ahead and become a high official. .
Even so, Han Pingzhi still felt very disgusted with this sneaky approach. If this person was not one of Zhou Ming's subordinates, he would have punished him severely. However, because of Zhou Ming's face, he could only Being able to control his temper, he quietly observed Zhou Ming's actions, trying to see if he would get rid of this little character.
If you drive this person away, it proves that Zhou Ming attaches great importance to the experience he taught him and does not allow others to share it. On the other hand, if Yi Ming does not make any reaction, it proves that he was so devoted to listening to his speech just now. It's all an act.
Thinking of this, Han Ping couldn't help but become nervous again. After all, if Yi Ming didn't drive Xia Dezhang away, wouldn't his lofty speech just now be just playing the piano to a cow?
Fortunately, his worries did not last long. Yi Ming drove Xia Dezhang away without waiting for him to approach. This really made Han Pingzhi feel relieved and made him talk more vigorously about the ways of imperial control.
"Let your subordinates be afraid of you and keep the deepest fear of you at all times. This is only the lowest level of the imperial method, because these people are following you out of fear, not willingness. The highest level of the imperial method is It is to make these subordinates feel that they have a community of interests with you. Even if they are obviously slaves, you can make them feel like a master.
As long as you reach this level, if you encounter any danger, you don't even have to ask, they will volunteer to rush to the front line, and they will not hesitate to lose their lives for you. "
After saying this, Han Pingzhi felt that his theory was perfect, and his narration was even more wonderful. Although he didn't know whether Zhou Ming could understand this theory, he was already amazed by his performance just now, and even Somewhat elated, for a moment he even felt that if he could apply his theory to the extreme, he might be able to achieve hegemony without relying on any force.
But he soon woke up and understood that in this cruel world, choices are often greater than strength, and opportunities are often more important than hard work.
After regaining his composure, Han Pingzhi asked slightly tiredly: "Brother Zhou, I couldn't hold it back just now. Maybe I talked too much and was too complicated, and I didn't consider whether you could understand it. If there is something you don't understand, You can ask me."
Zhou Yiming lacked experience in being an official, and he knew nothing about the way of serving as a subordinate before. However, this did not mean that he was stupid. After listening to Han Pingzhi's words, he also felt that it was very exciting, but it made him very What I am curious about is what should be done to enable the subordinates to reach the highest state of the way of being a subordinate.
"Brother Han, listening to you is worth a hundred years of reading." Zhou Ming said with emotion, "Brother, to be honest, our Zhou family has been a scholar for generations. Several generations in the family have been scholars. My father I am also an official in the imperial court, but since I was a child, I have never read such wonderful theories in books, and even my father has never taught me these."
Han Pingzhi was a little worried that Zhou Yiming would not understand what he said. Now seeing him say these words, Han Pingzhi felt extremely happy: "Good brother, can you understand the wonderful part of my words?" , it proves that you are a talent that can be created. As long as you study my theory carefully, no matter how big an official you become, the people under your command will definitely be docile and will never create anything for you. Not half a bother.”
"Thank you, Brother Han, for your teachings. If it's like what Brother Han said, I will never forget the kindness of my brother's teachings when I become successful." Zhou Yiming cupped his fists and said with great respect.
