Chapter 233: Entry into the Protocol House


Speaking of Qiantang Street, Zhen Jian suddenly remembered that the house he lives in now is on Qiantang Street, which was awarded to him by the emperor for his last meritorious service, but he didn't expect to be rewarded with another set of houses now, still on Qiantang Street, and it is Wujin Courtyard, which is estimated to be at least twice the size of the house he lives in now.

But Zhen Jian thought about it carefully, Qiantang Street is not a rich area, there are not many big houses on the whole street, there seem to be only four houses with more than three courtyards, and there are empty houses that no one lives in, as if there is one next door to his house, and there are five courtyards.

As if to confirm Zhen Jian's thoughts, the emperor smiled and said: "Zhen Jian, the house I gave you this time is next to your house, you only need to open the courtyard wall, and you can connect the two mansions into one." ” "Thank you for the Emperor's grace."

Zhen Jian hurriedly saluted and thanked him.

The emperor smiled slightly, and glanced at Liu Qing, Liu Qing picked up a mahogany tray, and put some clothes and envelopes in the mahogany tray, which was Zhen Jian's official uniform and entry document, Liu Qing put the holy decree on it, and served it to Zhen Jian together.

Zhen Jian took it with both hands, and the emperor said some words of encouragement, which made Zhen Jian retreat into the queue.

Next, move on to the discussion.

The second thing is to discuss how to try Yang Dingguo.

Qin Huan was the first to intercede for Yang Dingguo, but Liao Yan sarcastically sarcastically mocked Qin Huan, asking the three divisions to interrogate, it is a big crime to privately transfer the Imperial Forest Army, if you don't treat it harshly, everyone will follow suit in the future, will the emperor still be able to sleep!

This is said to the emperor's heart, although the emperor favors Qin Huan, but there is also a limit, the matter of the Imperial Forest Army involves the emperor's personal safety, he must be taken seriously, it is not easy for anyone to intercede, the emperor ignored Qin Huan, and finally agreed, the three divisions will be tried.

Qin Huan seemed to have expected such a result, and he didn't feel depressed, the Criminal Department and Dali Temple were all his people, even if the Inspectorate was involved, two to one, he also had a chance of winning, but even if Yang Dingguo could save his life, it was estimated that he would be a mismatch.

Zhen Jian, who was standing at the end of the team, had bright eyes, and he suddenly thought that maybe he could do something about Yang Dingguo's case, and by the way, Yang Dingguo's father Yang Zhenwei also pulled down, Yang Zhenwei didn't take refuge in Qin Huan, so he should give Qin Huan a dismount, so that Wang Guang could also take the position, killing two birds with one stone, but the strategy in his mind now is only a prototype, and he has to find the beggar gang to find out the news.

An hour later, the court meeting ended, Zhen Jian and the ministers went out of the palace together, and he walked straight to Honglu Temple and went to work.

Honglu Temple is in the northeast corner of the imperial city, there are guards at the door, Zhen Jian wanted to go in, but was stopped by the guards, Zhen Jian showed his official uniform and entry documents, and the guards let him in.

As soon as Zhen Jian entered with his front foot, Jia Zheng followed with his back foot and shouted behind him: "Zhen Jushi." ” Zhen Jian looked back and saw that it was Jia Zheng, and said, "Lord Jia, it's a coincidence, I came to join the company." ” Jia Zheng nodded and said, "Go forward on the middle road, and enter the Yimen, which is the protocol house." ” "Thank you, Lord Jia, I will leave my humble position first."

Zhen Jian turned around and left, walking towards the Yimen.

Jia Zheng looked at his distant back, and his beard showed a sneer.

When I entered the Yimen, I saw that the courtyard seemed to be a longitudinal street, but a neat row of trees was planted in the middle of the street, and the door of the concierge house was facing the Yimen.

Zhen Jian entered the protocol courtyard, only to see five officials shaking dice and gambling money in the courtyard, Zhen Jian came in, they hadn't found Zhen Jian yet, and shouted excitedly: "Big!"

Big!

Big!

"Small!

Small!

Small!

” Seeing this, Zhen Jian couldn't help frowning and coughed vigorously.

When a few guys heard the voice, they turned their heads to look at Zhen Jian, they were also lively, and when they saw the official uniform in the tray in Zhen Jian's hand, they hurriedly got up and asked, "Who are you?"

What's the matter with coming to the Concierge?

” Zhen Jian said: "I am the new protocol house, Zhen Jian." ” "Ahh You are Lord Zhen!

Everyone was surprised when they heard this, and it could be heard from their words that they might have known that Zhen Jian would come to join the company, but they didn't expect it to come so soon.

A white-faced and thin middle-aged official immediately came to him with a smile, nodded and said, "Lord Zhen, you are here, we have been looking forward to your coming for a long time." ” Zhen Jian was very unhappy with the gambling behavior of these five people, so he naturally didn't have a good face, and said, "Don't talk nonsense, take me to see the envoy." ” "Okay, Master Zhen, come with the little one."

The thin and tall official immediately took Zhen Jian around the hall and walked towards the back office.

On the way to the back office, the thin and tall official introduced: "Lord Zhen, the envoy of our protocol house is called Chen Wannian, who usually pays more attention to etiquette and has a good temper. ” "Hmm."

Zhen Jian nodded and asked, "What about you, what is your name?"

What is your position?

” "The little one's name is Xu Qi, and he is a servant."

From the officer, that is, from the leader of the officials, equivalent to the captain.

Zhen Jian asked again: "Who was before the position of this protocol house, and how many servants do you have?"

” Xu Qi replied: "The biggest of our protocol is the envoy, from the sixth grade, the following is the adult, and there are three translators, the translator is the same as you, but the interpreter is the same as the adult, but the interpreter does not care, only when the foreign guests come, they are responsible for the translation, below you, is from the seventh product director, Lord Ding Mian Ding, before you came, the things are represented by Lord Ding, and then there are our unpopular servants and cooks, there are five cooks, and there are ten servants, you just need to command, The little ones are all at your disposal. ” "Okay."

Zhen Jian nodded and said, "The new official has three fires, and my first fire is to order you not to gamble in the yamen in the future." ” Xu Qi smacked his lips when he heard this, and said, "Yes, since the adult has commanded, the little one must restrain his subordinates and prevent them from gambling anymore." ” Zhen Jian learned about the protocol from Xu Qi again, and arrived at the back office, there are four public offices in the back office, which is equivalent to an office, the middle one is the envoy, the one on the left is the one who lifts things, the right one is the director's, and then next to it is the chef's lounge and the servant's lounge.

Zhen Jian first walked into the middle of the courtyard envoy's yamen, and a middle-aged man in his forties came out to stop them and asked, "Who are you looking for?"

” Xu Qi introduced to Zhen Jian in a low voice: "This is the personal attendant of the envoy, Master Li Wentong, and he will not enter the stream." ” The so-called not entering the stream, that is, there is no rank, not within the establishment of the imperial court, he told Zhen Jian this, is to prevent Zhen Jian from not understanding the situation, rashly saluting Li Wentong, this is a joke, Honglu Temple once did the work of the Ministry of Rites, so in terms of etiquette, it is quite important.

Zhen Jian nodded, roughly understanding that this Li Wentong was equivalent to a personal secretary or assistant.

Xu Qi saluted Li Wentong and said, "Lord Li, this is the new Lord Zhen Jianzhen, who is here. ” Li Wentong saluted Zhen Jian, and said, "Lord Zhen, please put on your official uniform first and then pay a visit to us." ” Zhen Jian was stunned, and then nodded: "Okay." ” Li Wentong took half a step back and pointed to the screen on the side, Zhen Jian walked behind the screen, put on the official uniform on the boat, put on the official hat, and walked out.

Seeing this, Xu Qi couldn't help but smile and praised: "It's really rare for Lord Zhen to be so handsome in an official uniform." ” This thing is still very good, Zhen Jian is very happy to listen to it, it turns out that men also like others to praise themselves for being handsome, similar to women.

Zhen Jian smiled and said, "Don't be a sycophant, Mr.

Li, this official can meet Master Chen now." ” "Please wait."

Li Wentong walked to the inner room, and he could vaguely hear him talking to another person, and then Li Wentong came out and said, "Lord Zhen, please come in." ” Zhen Jian walked in, only to see that it was full of bookshelves and bookcases, with a large desk in the middle, and behind the desk, there was a white and fat official with two mustaches, looking to be in his forties.

Zhen Jian stood in front of the desk and bowed: "Xiaguan Zhen Jian greets ......"

"Wait a minute!"

Chen Wannian hurriedly raised his hand to stop him, and Zhen Jian was also stunned.

Chen Wannian pointed to the holy decree in his tray and said, "Put down the holy decree and bow again." ” Zhen Jian didn't expect him to care so much about etiquette, so he put the tray on his desk, and then bowed: "Your Excellency Zhen Jian pays a visit to Lord Chen." ” Chen Wannian spread his hands politely: "Zhen Ju is exempt, please take a seat." ” Zhen Jian sat down according to his words, although the official level crushed people to death, but in normal times, as long as he maintained etiquette with the officials, as long as there was no argument, the boss and his subordinates were actually not so incompatible, and they still had to sit down and discuss things about official affairs.

After Zhen Jian sat down, he pointed to the holy decree and official document in the tray, and said, "Lord Chen, the lower official is here to handle the entry procedures today. ” "Hmm."

Chen Wannian answered, took the official document and read it carefully, gave Zhen Jian an iron waist card, and wrote an official document to Zhen Jian, saying: "This waist card is a symbol of your identity, and it can be used when entering and exiting Honglu Temple and commanding people. ” "Thank you, Lord Chen, I will retire."

Zhen Jian got up and thanked him, picked up his things, turned around and walked out of the room.

Then I came all the way to Director Ding's yamen and met Director Ding, Director Ding was a middle-aged man in his thirties, with a mediocre appearance and a little short stature, standing up as tall as Zhen Jian's lips.

Zhen Jian found that Ding Mian had a black face throughout the whole process, and he seemed reluctant to hand over the seal letter, but there was no way, Zhen Jian was personally sealed by the emperor's holy decree, and he had to hand over the seal letter.

Out of Ding Mian's yamen, Xu Qi took Zhen Jian to visit the lounge of the chefs and servants, and when he came to the chefs' lounge, there was only one chef there, Xu Qi smiled awkwardly and explained: "Because our protocol rarely receives foreign guests, it has not been open for a long time, and the other chefs have taken leave to go out to do private work." ” Zhen Jian was speechless when he heard this, so he asked, "Does Lord Chen know about this?"

” Ding Mian nodded and said: "I know, Lord Chen also pities them, the cooks' salaries are too low, and they are not as good as our servants, so Lord Chen will turn a blind eye, as long as there is a chef who stays on duty, each person for a month, in turn." ” Zhen Jian nodded, since Chen Wannian acquiesced, he didn't have to say anything, besides, life is not easy, he can't be too harsh, as long as it doesn't affect the normal work of the protocol, Zhen Jian doesn't want to be an annoying boss, officialdom matters, should be serious and accommodating, and he will have to be accommodating, otherwise he will be very unpopular. came to the rest room of the servants, and saw that the five servants were all lying on the bench and sleeping, Xu Qi was embarrassed again, and hurriedly woke them up, and then after the five people got up, Xu Qi introduced them, and the five of them hurriedly saluted Zhen Jianxing.

Zhen Jian glanced at them and said: "Tomorrow I will officially be in class, and I have set a rule that you will clean the hall and all the courtyards every three days, and after cleaning, you can rest, but you are not allowed to gamble during class hours. ” "Yes......"

Everyone reluctantly agreed, cleaning it once every three days, it sounds very painful, the hall is not small.

As soon as he finished speaking, the other four people came in from outside the door, the four people who were gambling with Xu Qi in the front yard, Zhen Jian said: "Xu Qi, if you say this official, you tell everyone that this official is not worth it today, and he will come back tomorrow."

He said that he turned and left.

Everyone sent Zhen Jian away together.

Zhen Jian went all the way out of Honglu Temple, out of Chaotianmen, and returned home, and happened to meet people from the household department who came to their house to send rewards, house deeds, gold, cloth, Zhen Jian took all the orders, and then took people to visit the big mansion next door.

The house in Wujinyuan is really big, but it has been abandoned for many years, it is overgrown with weeds, and the roofs of some houses are also a little collapsed, and many places need to be repaired.

Zhen Jian stood in the huge courtyard and suddenly said, "Ye Qiu, give you a task." ” Ye Qiu hurriedly said, "What task?"

” Zhen Jiandao: "The first task, to repair this house, the cost or something, find Li Xianyu to get it." ” "No problem."

Ye Qiu nodded.

Zhen Jian said again: "The second task, immediately go to the beggar gang to divide the rudder, and ask the beggar gang how much real estate Yang Zhenwei, the general of the Royal Forest Army, has." ” "Okay."

Ye Qiu nodded and asked by the way, "Do you want to move Yang Zhenwei?"

” "That's right."

Zhen Jian nodded with a light smile.

When Wei Song heard this, he suddenly said with a worried face: "The shopkeeper, although Yang Zhenwei is a martial artist, he is a favorite minister of the Son of Heaven, and his power in Beijing cannot be underestimated, you must not mess around." ” Zhen Jian smiled confidently and said, "Don't worry, I won't make a mess." ” He paused, and suddenly smiled again: "I made a planned and prepared move." ”
